Lust Knight Chapter 333 – Brother–in–law

Chapter 333 - Brother-in-law

After drinking two 'super potions' of Lucien, Willard became a new man. Well, there's no way anyone can't change after such an amazing experience, and Lucien's wives know it well.

Smiling happily because of his freedom and good news about Rein's death, Willard left that stinking prison, now destined only for werewolves and manticore-people who committed crimes and cruelty to innocent people.

The captain of the guard and other guards were shocked by Lucien's miraculous potion. They really wanted to tell their friends about that but were surprised by the news about Lucien being Eve's brother, and actually King of the whole continent beside her.

The Handsome Devil, the well-known name of the famous King of Portgreen, now also King of the Alliance and of the whole continent, was known to even more people. Everyone except those arrested started talking about him.

Although many women in Viset fear the end of the newly created women's paradise, everyone will understand that Lucien would not disobey his big sis, whom many still consider the Alliance's only true leader.

Also, Lucien was already known for his most striking features: being cruel to his enemies and overprotective to his loved ones. So the people did not fear that he was ambitious or had any interest in harming the people of the Alliance.

While the people talked about Lucien, he just stayed silent beside Scarlett as she explained everything to her brother.

Willard was increasingly shocked by everything he found out about Lucien, especially the fact that even after everything Scarlett did, Lucien still allowed her to become his wife.

The poor man was kneeling at Lucien's feet for several minutes, thanking him for taking care of her even though he had several reasons to kill her.

Lucien paid attention to Willard's every gesture and words and quickly realized that he is a simple and honest man. A little naive and dense too.

But most importantly, Willard doesn't seem at all interested in using the connection with Scarlett to benefit in any way.

After a few hours of talking in the courtyard, Scarlett makes a sorry expression to Willard. "Brother... I want to help you as much as I can, but the Alliance is no longer a place for men. Although Lucien is the King, he should not change things Eve did, or that would disrespect her. Also, use our connection to make your life better here would be disrespectful to every woman of the Alliance."

Willard quickly responds with an honest expression. "I really don't want to abuse you after everything King Lucien has done for our family. I'm fine thanks to him, and Rein is dead... I want to start a new life away from here."

Lucien c.a.r.e.s.ses Scarlett's hand while talking to Willard. "I don't want to change things in the Alliance, but Portgreen is and will always be a free place for everyone. If you have no evil intentions or stupid prejudices, you can create a new life there however you want."

"Yeah." Willard smiles. "Portgreen has always seemed like a good place to start over, and now knowing that you are King, I believe there is an even better place."

Lucien nods. "So it's set. So that you have a base for your new life, I can recommend you to work with Alden in the royal guard or Ron in the Kingdom management. Maybe with spies?"

Willard bows respectfully. "I am very grateful for your kindness, your majesty. However, I really don't want to bother you. Having taken that treasure was already ingratitude on my part after everything you did for my sister."

Lucien smiles. "Scarlett is my beloved wife, and you are my brother-in-law, so we are family. I cannot help you as I want because of some of my limitations, but I believe you will do Portgreen very well. Soon I will be leaving, and I need good people to defend the legacy of freedom there."

Willard kneels again as he bows even more. "Then I will not refuse this offer. I will work hard to protect Portgreen and honor your legacy, my King."

Scarlett smiles and squeezes Lucien's hand, happy to see the sparkle of a purpose in her brother's eyes. "Live, my brother; live a happy life to honor our mother's memory."

Lucien gets up and extends his hand to Willard. "You don't have to call me King or kneel to me, brother-in-law. I'll write a letter of recommendation so that you can show it to a guard in Portgreen city, but maybe you want to attend the wedding ceremony between Scarlett and me first."

Willard gets up and smiles at Lucien, but then he denies his proposal. "I would like to go with you to the ceremony, but from what I understand, your group is made up exclusively of your women... I don't think it would be appropriate for me to participate."

Scarlett giggles while talking to Lucien mentally. 'No man would be comfortable around so many beautiful women when fearing to looking at them and losing their eyes, or worse, being in love with the devil's wives.'

Lucien makes a sorry expression to Willard. "I see... So I'm going to write a letter now, and you can travel whenever you want."

"I can't express all my gratitude, my Kin- brother-in-law." Willard smiles embarrassedly. He definitely does not have a bold nature like Scarlett.

Scarlett tells her brother more about how amazing life with Lucien is as he quickly writes a letter of recommendation. He puts on it his signature and also a code that only Ron's more reliable spies know, besides himself and Alden.

Upon arriving at any guard, the letter will easily be taken to someone with authority, and soon Ron will be notified of Lucien's brother-in-law. And although Lucien does not ask for special treatment for Willard, he will certainly be treated well.

Less than a minute later, Angela's ice ship stops above the courtyard, surprising even more people there.

Angela descends from the sky on her floating platform with Lucien's other wives and Ghalenna. The posture of Lucien's wives is always proud and majestic, generating admiration in all the women who see them.

Despite being a little less impressive than Eve, Lucien and his girls are always generating respect and admiration wherever they go, which boosts their egos, stimulating their pride.

Before, it had no major effect other than giving them a little p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, but after Lucien's meeting with Eve, a very small part of her energy is inside him, being fed specifically by that energy generated from that p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

The girls wave to Willard, knowing he is Scarlett's brother, but he just nods respectfully and keeps his distance from them. He admires Lucien a lot and doesn't want to disrespect him in any way.

Ghalenna approaches Lucien and also looks at Willard. "I hope you got what you as looking for."

Lucien nods to her. "Yes, your guard was very quick and efficient in finding my brother-in-law quickly. He's fine now and will create a new life on Potgreen."

But before she answers, he smiles teasingly. "But don't get it wrong. My selfishness has no limits, and there are still many things I want. Now I'm going to the fox-clan to give a good ceremony to my girls. You are coming with us, right?"

Ghalenna makes a confused expression. Before, she still had doubts about Lucien's intentions, but every bit of hostility towards him inside her heart was quickly destroyed by his smiles and friendly actions, even the harsh truths he said and made her see how selfish she is.

Now, she doesn't know what to do. But then she looks back and sees Ghilanna smiles at her. They still have a lot to talk about and get along with, so Ghalenna cannot miss this opportunity to at least give a friendly ending to their story.

"I said I was going, and I'm not going to change my word," Ghalenna speaks in a respectful tone.

Lucien nods and then looks at Scarlett and Willard. "I'll give you some time to say goodbye to each other; when you're ready to go, just tell me."

Scarlett agrees, and Lucien walks to the other side of the courtyard with his wives and Ghalenna.

The m.a.t.u.r.e elf Queen is silent for a few minutes before speaking. "I will send some guards to accompany him to the Potgreen border. The Great Forest is dangerous even for strong people when alone."

"Thank you for that." Lucien smiles, and Ghalenna quickly leaves the courtyard to order a group of guards to help Willard get to Portgreen and not to get too close to Lucien and his attractive smile.

Lucien sits on a bench, and before Amelia, L.u.s.t, or Envy can sit on his l.a.p, Ghilanna steals the scene.

The cute elf hugs Lucien and giggles. "Only you could start changing my mother's arrogant attitude. I never thought we could get along again..."

Lucien chuckles. "I hope you get along, but I still haven't forgotten what you asked of me."

Ghilanna's eyes shine as she teases him. "You talk like it's bad, but I know you want it too, don't you? Another pair of mother and daughter... that's your thing, right?"

Lucien kisses Ghilanna on the lips. "Maybe..."

After twenty minutes, Ghalenna returns with a group of guards; one of them is the prison guard who claimed Willard looked like a good person. She has always been concerned about him being arrested and now feels sorry for not trying to defend him. So she wants to help him start a new life, and who knows what else... an elf and a hybrid werewolf-fox?

Scarlett also finishes saying goodbye to Willard. He can't resist kneeling to Lucien and thanking him again. Then the group says goodbye, and while Willard goes to Portgreen to starts a new life with his elf friend, Lucien and his wives go to the fox-clan.

Lucien's ice sh.i.p.s leave Viset, leaving the city excited by the stories that his troops and wives told about their adventures. Everyone is very expectant for a future with Lucien and Eve as leaders.

The group enjoys the journey and the view of the forest that gets more and more beautiful as they go west. Viset is just fifty miles from the cat-clan and the coast, while the fox-clan is really the central area of the northern part of the continent.

Along the way, they see small villages of the bear clan that is further north and the manticore clan to the south. The manticore clan, now containing only women free, is still a clan of servants and has many years ahead to pay for their boundless brutality.

As almost two hundred miles are separating Viset from the fox-clan, the journey is not so fast, and Lucien uses that time and the beautiful forest below them to have some fun with Oya and Ko.

So along with Lucien and Oya, she hunts other dangerous beasts in the forest. The beasts with soft and tasty meat change to a feast made by Lucien's wives that love to cook for him.

Some people may think that Lucien is relaxing and losing focus, but he keeps all his goals clear in his mind. He didn't mind stopping and giving Scarlett and her brother plenty of time as he was a concern that prevented her from being fully satisfied with her life.

Now, Scarlett is free of her worries and will become stronger faster to reach her full potential alongside Lucien. As well as pleasing Ko and Oya, everything Lucien does for his girl reflects on their whole family getting stronger.

That is the power of the underestimated knight... of the one who does not seek individual power, but power for his whole family.
