Lust Knight Chapter 198 No Time For Res

Chapter 198 No Time For Res

As Lucien's group headed for the town's main courtyard, he noticed that Madelyn kept gazing at him while blushing.

Well, he was already used to causing this reaction in women not only because of his attractive figure but also because even without using it, the demonic energy inside him radiated a charming atmosphere around him.

According to Lust, women of the mortal realm has less resistance to his charm, and as his demonic energy grows more powerful and vast, he will be able to enchant much more powerful women from higher realms.

For now, even while Lucien was not trying to captivate women's attention, only mature women could at least disguise being interested in him while young girls could not avoid making their feelings clear.

While Lucien ignored most looks from women who are not his wives, he was finding it hard to ignore Madelyn because she is very cute, especially her cat-girl's ears, which look even cuter than Anne's ears.

Lucien didn't stop walking while holding Cassidy's hand but started talking to Madelyn, who was close to him.

"Madelyn, why don't you hate me, or at least fear me?" Lucien asked, leaving everyone curious about his question.

The cat-girl made a thoughtful and shocked expression as she answered. "Why should I hate or fear you?"

Lucien spoke calmly. "Well, I just killed a lot of adventurers. Shouldn't that affect you?"

Madelyn can't help but be a little sad. "Yes, I think I should be sad for them... But we have all heard Ivan's words. Everything he, Red Lady, and even Olivia, did to Queen Cassidy..."

"In fact, most of us knew that things were not fair for the Queen, but we preferred to ignore that and go on with our lives... That is the truth. We are all selfish people who only care about ourselves."

She sighed and continued. "And even after everything was clear, many chose to still follow and defend Ivan while they could admit their mistakes like Olivia and Red Lady."

Madelyn looked at the other girls from L who were beside her as she spoke.

"I cannot speak for all the other adventurers, but I am sure that the people from the L, not because they are your fans but rational people, will understand that you have acted in the right to defend your wife."

"Also, Ivan's group was the first to attack. Anyway, in battle, people die... I know you are very merciful for sparing so many adventurers who clearly hate you now."

Then Madelyn smiled at Lucien. "That's the reason why I don't hate you. Now about me not being afraid, it's because I... Well, I don't know exactly why, but I'm sure you wouldn't hurt me for no reason, and in fact, you are a kind person."

"..." After Madelyn's elaborate response, everyone was silent for a few seconds while Lucien looked into her eyes.

The cat-girl was very embarrassed without knowing what to do but kept gazing at Lucien without looking away.

Then Lucien smiled at her, making her young heart seem like it was melting as she blushed more than ever. "You are an adorable girl, Madelyn."

Lucien was brutal in the battle with his enemies with the intention of passing on a message to everyone. A message that clearly meant what would happen to anyone who attacked his family again.

He also knew that many would fear and hate him after that. Still, he was happy that there were people like Madelyn who did not hate him but respected him, and understood that Ivan was primarily responsible for his death when he attacked Cassidy in the first place.

Lucien now wanted to know more about the so-called L secret group because he was sure he would be among friends there.

Then Lucien's group walked down the city streets towards the courtyard. They were slowly walking so that everyone could see that Cassidy had returned and that now the leadership of the city was back in her hands again and now also Lucien's.

After about half an hour, they arrived at that courtyard, where Lord Larousse was organizing the people so they can listen to Lucien and Cassidy's announcement.

They didn't speak much and just explained to the people what had happened. Cassidy said that things will not be the same as before, they will be even better.

She also said that she would unite the vassal kingdoms under her command again and protect them as she did before.

And of course, she introduced Lucien as her husband. Cassidy told them he isn't like her previous husband, she was forced to marry him because his family was very powerful and it was supposed to be good for the kingdom. She let them know that she is married again, because she loves Lucien.

Although not everyone saw the battle, the people that Lord Larousse took to the wall allowing them to watch it, are now telling everyone about how incredible Lucien and Cassidy are.

Everyone was very positive that Lucien and Cassidy would be great rulers, and their reputation would only increase from now on.

With everything explained, now it was time for Lucien and Cassidy to start cleaning up the mess that was made in the city when there was no proper leadership.

Lucien already had plans to unify the vassal kingdoms and make their relations even more significant than before.

He knew he wouldn't have a problem with Bluewind, but maybe things weren't so easy with the Nunid Kingdom, where he killed the prince to save Lena.

Well, they, like the other vassal kingdoms, could not really go against Lucien's command, and they also had no reason to refuse swearing loyalty to him since that would be more beneficial to them than to Lucien and Cassidy.

Right now, Lucien wanted to rebuild Cassidy's castle. It was destroyed when Ivan attacked her.

The Guild and the mercenaries wanted to use the destroyed castle as a sign of the end of the monarchy, so the place was in ruins but protected so that everyone could see it as a relic of the past.

Lucien and Cassidy would rebuild the castle as a symbol of their royal power. Of course, He and his wives would continue to live in their home in the purple world and would use the castle to be in contact with the people and others outside their family. Also, it will be his troops home for now.

With Olivia being the intermediary between Lucien and the adventurers, Scarlett doing the same thing with the mercenaries and Lord Larousse with the common people, Lucien and Cassidy only had to give the orders, and they would be done.

Lucien ordered a mixed group of mercenaries and adventurers to immediately start repairing the castle. Since they destroyed it, he decided to use it as a punishment.

He also sent messengers to contact the royal families of the vassal kingdoms and to summon everyone, even the representatives of smaller villages, to a great conference in Portgreen.

Although everything needed some time to be done, and they had just taken back control of the city, Lucien did not want to waste time.

Amelia would probably know about him taking Portgreen soon, and she would arrive with a gigantic army of Light Empire soldiers in about a month.

Amelia's army would be many times bigger and more powerful than the group of adventurers, so Lucien wanted to resume the hard training soon, the same training that his wives and troops love so much.

While Lucien and Cassidy resolved the most urgent questions about the kingdom, the hours passed, and the morning turned in to afternoon.

Cassidy, Mia, and Astrid were already very tired. So Lucien sent them home with Oya, Jeanne, and Ghilanna.

Kylee also returned home, but Neola wanted to go with Lucien's troops to the royal castle. The repair group was working hard to repair the castle, but they would need a few days to finish it.

Still, as Lucien would stay in the purple world with his women, the troops chose to camp in the castle's garden and oversee Its restoration. Of course, they wouldn't mind helping the repair group either, as they were building what would be the troops home for a while.

Since everyone was already following his orders, Lucien just had to wait for the results. Right now, he headed to the Guild to talk to Olivia about some adventurers from Ivan's main group. Also, to visit the L secret group.

Lucien entered the main buildings of the Guild alone. The first time he came here, he got a lot of attention, but this time he got even more.

The adventurers in the main hall were in a strange mood. Many of them were saddened by the loss of many friends, but they did not blame Lucien, but Ivan for making him his enemy.

Still, because Lucien said there would be no more Guild and mercenary groups, the adventurers were concerned about what would happen to them.

Lucien could hear them talking about their concerns and even feel the looks of fear they were giving him.

But there were also girls talking about how cool he looks, and how sexy his horns are. Of course, these were people from L who no longer needed to hide now that Ivan, and his group couldn't intimidate them anymore.

Lucien walked to the counter while Madelyn smiled at him. "Lucien, I'm happy to see you again!!"

He couldn't help but smile at the cute cat-girl. "We were together about four hours ago..."

Madelyn blushed because she couldn't help but be excited in Lucien's presence. She also saw that other girls in the main hall gazed at her with jealous expressions when Lucien said they were "together."

She tried to hide her embarrassed expression. "Yes... How can I help you, ehhh... should I call you my King from now on?"

"You don't have to. You can just call me Lucien." He responded.

Madelyn couldn't help but smile. In fact, just looking at Lucien made her want to smile. "Well... Lucien, did you come to see the Guild Mas- Olivia?"

Lucien nodded. "Yes, but she is busy dealing with the families of the dead adventurers now, right?"

Madelyn couldn't help but be surprised how Lucien knew about it. After all, not everyone was used to his super hearing.

"Yes, Olivia is arguing with some people about the funeral of the adventurers who died in the battle. Most of them understand that their family members shouldn't have followed Ivan against you and the Queen, but many are creating problems for Olivia."

Lucien made a thoughtful expression. "Hum... I understand that people should be angry when their family members are killed... Still, I have to support my wives, so I think I will have to kick the ass of these people who are bothering Olivia."

Madelyn and other girls in the hall could not help but giggle, listening to Lucien speak in a relaxed tone saying he would kick some asses.

Then he turned to the adventurers in the hall and spoke in a friendly tone. "I know you're concerned about how things are going to be from now on..."

"I can't say that it will be easy for you to adapt, but as Cassidy and I have already spoken, we will unite the people of Portgreen. Things will be fair for everyone. Violence against your own people and disorder will not be accepted."

"So, you can live your life however you want. I'm going to talk to Olivia about it later, but the Guild buildings are going to stay the same as before, same with your homes."

"Of course, adventurers inclined to create problems will be subjected to a spell that will prevent them from creating bigger problems, but overall as long as you follow the law, there is nothing to worry about."

The adventurers in the main hall were very relieved by Lucien's words. They feared negative changes, but Lucien just seemed to want to create order, and that would benefit everyone.

Lucien was satisfied that most adventurers were willing to behave. He smiled at Madelyn again. "Well, I'm going to help Olivia now. After that, I would like to meet your friends from the L group."
