Lust Knight Chapter 215 In the shadow of a great man

Chapter 215 In the shadow of a great man

Near Portgreen city, 2:00 pm.

In an area near the west road, there is an improvised camp in the same place where Lucien's female troops had made camp before the battle for Portgreen city.

Now Lucien's male troops are camped there. Alden only had orders from Lucien to join his other troops near the city, but they didn't really have a way of communicating.

Lucien could have left one of his wives with the male troops, but he knew it would be very uncomfortable for any of his wives. Also, the male troops were not so significant for Lucien to make one of his wives stay away from him like that.

Well, now he had Ivan's stone, which matched Olivia's stone and it could be used for communication over long distances as Ivan used it to send short messages to Olivia even though he was hundreds of miles away from her.

Still, now Alden did not know about the situation in the city as they had just arrived there through the forest to avoid problems. So, he sent some of the spies that Ron sent to help them to get information while they waited in the woods.

As everyone was exhausted from the trip, they sat down for a while to rest.

Mason, who was being "escorted," kept looking at Rebecca, not only because she was very beautiful but because he had nothing better to look at.

"Hey. Pretty lady. I know you from somewhere... Were you kidnapped by these barbarians too?" Mason tried to get Rebecca's attention as they were not far from each other.

Rebecca was deep in thought about Lucien. So she only heard a few words from Mason. "Barbarians? Where?"

Mason had his hands tied so as not to create trouble, so he signaled with his head to the men around. "Them, of course. These barbarians are led by that damn devil who stole my aunt from me."

Alden was about to tell Mason to shut up, but he saw how upset Rebecca's expression got when Mason talked about Lucien that way, so Alden waited to hear Rebecca's response.

Rebecca looked at Mason with a disgusted expression. "I bet your aunt loved being stolen by him. No woman would rather be next to a nasty pig like you than the charming handsome devil."

Mason was distraught. "What's wrong with you? You're insulting me without knowing who I'm."

Rebecca rolled her eyes. "Everyone knows who you are, Mason. You are the bastard who attacked Princess Mia and Lucien. Then you conspired with Black Hand, the worse mercenary, to try to hurt them again."

Alden and Lucien's male troops started laughing at Mason as he made a confused expression without knowing how to answer Rebecca.

"I... I didn't even know there was a princess in Portgreen. I just wanted to save those novice adventurers... It was a misunderstanding. It was those elven brother's falt..."

"Shut the fuck up," Rebecca exclaimed and quickly continued. "The only reason Lucien didn't kill you is that he likes Jeanne a lot. But now I think they both don't give a damn about you anymore."

Mason was furious at Rebecca. "Your-"

*BAM*

"AARGHH!!" Mason cried out in pain when Alden quickly landed a hard punch on his face causing him to roll on the ground.

Alden laughed as he looked at Mason. "You should thank me for saving your life. If Lucien finds out that you are insulting Lady Rebecca, Lady Jeanne will not be able nor want to stop him from cutting your head off."

Rebecca couldn't help but smile, imagining Lucien doing something extreme for her as he would do for his wives.

Meanwhile, Enzo watched the whole scene. He had an upset expression on his face when he saw Rebecca defending Lucien in that way.

A man at his side couldn't help commenting. "Still jealous of the Master? Do you still want Neola and Kylee?"

Enzo shook his head. "I'm not jealous. I already understand that I can't compete with him, and I don't even want to know more about Neola and Kylee; after all, he has already taken their purity."

The man shook his head. "Purity? You really are an idiot. I can't imagine other women more beautiful and perfect than Lady Cassidy and Lady Angela, except for Lady Lust, of course."

"Still, Master never had that kind of stupid thought about them, and now both beautiful queens are totally in love and loyal to him... Master is truly a man superior to all others."

Everyone who heard the conversation agreed with that man. Of course, they didn't desire Lucien's women, because they were so grateful and loyal to Lucien as their leader and also because they knew that women as beautiful and perfect as Lucien's wives were totally out of their reach.

But they could not help praising Lucien for being such an amazing man with such incredible wives.

While the troops talked, Ron's spies who sought information returned with women known to them, that is, Lucien's female troops.

"Alden, Lady Rebecca." The woman who led the group greeted them.

Alden greeted the group and then asked. "Where's our master?"

"At the royal castle. Our Master is the King now." The woman responded, making everyone surprised. Well, Alden already expected incredible things from Lucien.

Still, the others were really surprised, especially Mason, who knew the strength of the adventurers.

Rebecca couldn't help asking. "But what about the Guild and mercenary groups?"

Then the woman gave them a quick summary of the battle and the current situation of the city.

She also couldn't help praising Rebecca. "The battle was challenging, and the armor that Lady Rebecca made for us helped to prevent any death or severe injuries in our group. Our Master was very satisfied and will certainly be happy that you arrived to take care of our equipment again."

Rebecca again couldn't help but smile at the thought of Lucien praising her hard work. She didn't realize that almost all of her recent thoughts were about him in some way.

"Our Master knew that you would be arriving soon, so he told us to keep an eye on this area. Well, shall we go to the castle then?" The group leader spoke.

"Yes, of course," Alden replied, and his group headed for the city.

Rebecca was surprised to see the change in the city. Before, when she went to Bluewind, Portgreen city was in chaos because of the conflicts, but now it was a very happy and lively place.

Everyone in the streets talked about Lucien and Cassidy's exploits. The new King and the true Queen that everyone was proud to serve.

Of course, the people also spoke of the harmony that Lucien created in the city by having Olivia and Red Lady also as his wives. Now Portgreen would be more united than ever and would keep growing more and more under Lucien and Cassidy's leadership.

One of Lucien's troops went ahead to notify him of the group's arrival, so Lucien prepared to receive them in front of the castle. He also sent a messenger to call Lord Larousse to meet his stupid son.

When the group saw Lucien and his wives at the castle door to welcome them, the male troops were proud to follow someone as incredible as Lucien.

Alden's eyes shone with admiration and respect. He was also very happy for Lucien always says that he considered him a friend.

Rebecca had a special sparkle in her eyes when she looked at Lucien. Not only did she admire him a lot, but she also had expectations of continuing to work as his smith and maybe something else.

Enzo could only dream of one day becoming incredible like Lucien and also being surrounded by beautiful women... Of course, everyone is allowed to dream, but the poor Enzo would hardly get over that feeling of inferiority while he lived.

And Mason... Well, he couldn't hide his anger from Lucien when he saw Jeanne by his side as a loving and obedient wife. Also, Mason could see a happy and proud smile on his beloved Aunt's face, proving that she has genuine feelings for Lucien.

"Master." All of Lucien's male troops bowed to him as they greeted him respectfully.

"Mas-" Rebecca instinctively started to greet Lucien as a Master, but she immediately stopped while blushing.

Lucien waved to his troops as he headed towards Alden. "How was the journey, my friend?"

Alden was about to answer Lucien and shake his hand, but Mason came out from behind him and pointed a finger to Lucien. "You-"

*PAH*

Lucien, without stopping smiling, slapped Mason's face hard, knocking him to the floor. The loud slap was really powerful and left a red mark on Mason's face while he felt like his skin was burning.

Mason groaned in pain on the floor, but no one came to help him, not even Jeanne. In fact, she just rolled her eyes, knowing that Lucien would not kill Mason but would give him a lesson so he would never do anything as stupid again.

Lucien shook Alden's hand as he answered him. "It was all right on the journey. I'm sorry we didn't make it in time to participate in the battle."

"Oh, that's not a problem. We had a good result in the battle." Lucien replied, but then Mason started screaming.

"Aunt!!! Won't you help me?!?! Mom would-"

*BAM*

Lucien quickly arrived in front of Mason and kicked him in the belly, throwing him back several meters again. He fell in front of Lord Larousse, who had just arrived.

"Do you dare use your mother's memory to try to make Jeanne feel bad? She cared and pampered you for so long. Can't you even let her live her own life now?" Lucien asked in an upset tone.

Mason would reflect on Lucien's words later, but right now he is blinded by anger and jealousy.

He tried to scream and moan, but his father kicked his ass. "Shut the fuck up, stupid kid!"

Mason was shocked to hear his father's angry voice; after all, he always spoiled him a lot. "Dad-"

*PAH*

Lord Larousse slapped Mason's face hard, on the other side that Lucien had hit. "I told you to shut up!!"

While Mason was unable to speak because of the pain, Lord Larousse bowed to Lucien to the point that his forehead was almost touching the floor.

"I am sorry for this shameful scene, my King. I will punish this ungrateful kid and correct his behavior."

Lucien signaled at him. "Just get him out of my sight."

"Thank you very much, my King." Lord Larousse took Mason by the collar and dragged him through the streets, making everyone who watched the scene laugh.

Jeanne had a serene expression on her face. She heard Lucien's voice in her mind. 'Are you alright, my dear?'

She quickly replied to his mental message. 'Yes, hubby. I thought it would be hard to move on, but now I realize that I have nothing to do with them anymore.'

"I've done more than my duty by taking care of them for so long. My sister wouldn't want me to miss the chance to raise a family with you, by caring for them forever.'

Then Jeanne smiled at Lucien as she concluded. 'I'm glad you gave Dennis a chance to correct his mistakes. I'm sure he can correct Mason's behavior and be a loyal servant to the crown. Also, he will remain a loyal servant even after we leave and will be useful to the person you choose to rule Portgreen.'

'It seems like a good conclusion for me. I'm glad it's all right for you, my love.' Lucien responded to Jeanne.

Then Lucien approached Rebecca, who was standing next to him, just looking at him with a flushed expression.

He held out his hand to her, and when Rebecca squeezed his hand, he brought his mouth to her ear and whispered. "I'm glad you came. Let's talk in private as soon as I pass my orders on to the troops."

"Mm." Rebecca nodded as she blushed even more because of Lucien doing that act of closeness in front of everyone.

Then Lucien took the male troops to the great castle hall, which had already been repaired. He would give them a good lunch before explaining how things would be from now on.

While the men were having lunch, Lucien's wives invited Rebecca to snack. They knew she was going to be part of the group as a smith, and they also expected something more to eventually happen between her and Lucien.
