Lust Knight Chapter 394

Helena's face gets completely red as she is more embarrassed than ever. Then she pouts and stomps her foot on the ground. "I have no such frustration!"

Lucien can't help but laugh at her cute reaction as he mentally talks to Lust. 'She looks like a child... is she really twelve hundred years old?'

Lust quickly responds. 'Age is just a number, and it does not mean that she is mature. In fact, she is still too young for a person who is supposed to have been born already in the Mortal Realm due to the power of her parents. The more power someone has, the greater their longevity is, and so they have different notions of time, taking much more time to mature mentally.'

He smiles at Helena and Daisy. "Your sexual life and marriage are not at risk here. I'm pretty sure Sophia can heal you, so you don't have to do something as horrible as having sex with me."

"Tsk..." Donna and Wrath make mocking sounds because even they, who don't think much about sex, already understood that having sex with Lucien is one of the best things there is, so they can't help but find that situation bizarre that Daisy and Helena make it look bad.

Lust just smiles because although she thinks that Daisy and Helena can bring many benefits to Lucien due to their high power level, she still prefers not to have more women to share his affection with.

Yet, she knows that it is impossible for any woman to spend a long time with Lucien and not fall in love with him due to various reasons.

Daisy makes a sorry expression as she thinks. [He's just trying to help me, and I'm making it look awful... having sex with him to heal me shouldn't change anything, and my husband should accept... Damn!! What am I thinking?!]

Helena, still turned on her back, speaks to Lucien. "Don't talk about it anymore!! Also, I'm not going to keep protecting you. As you said, you are already very strong, and you can protect yourself!"

Lucien sighs. "Okay, little angel. We will speak to Sophia right after the ceremony."

"Don't call me like that... I'm not an angel anymore." Helena stutters while she feels strange by the tender way that Lucien spoke to her. She has heard him say like that to so many women, and she thought she would be immune to his charm, but things are not so simple.

"Alright, alright..." He responds and then looks at Donna and Daisy. "Clovis is close, and I wanted to talk to him..."

"I have to go back to help Rose with the clothes, makeup, and everything for the ceremony," Daisy responds.

Lucien smiles at Donna, and she makes an upset expression. "Do I really have to take care of this stupid angel?"

"I'll make it up to you later." He responds.

"You already owe me an irrefutable request..." She comments.

"This will be the second." He responds.

"Deal!" She smiles.

Helena turns and looks at Lucien with an upset expression. "I don't need anyone to take care of me. I was going very well hidden."

He gently smiles at her. "You better be around now, and Donna has nothing else to do either."

Donna tosses another apple at Helena, and both look at each other with neutral expressions, which is better than a hostile mood.

Then Lucien walks towards the east. "See you later."

The girls look at his back with thoughtful expressions until he disappears among the apple trees.

"He reacted better than I expected..." Daisy comments.

Helena shakes her head with a sad expression. "Not really."

Donna sighs. "Yes... there is no way he can be well after learning that his mother may be manipulating him since the beginning."

"So, is he pretending?" Daisy is confused. She thought she could understand people well, but she now doubts that.

"Neither," Helena responds. She watched Lucien for a few months, but that was enough for her to understand a lot about him.

Donna sighs. "He must be distraught, but he has to continue to act confidently because a lot of people depend on him."

"But... he should be able to be furious or sad just like everyone else." Daisy comments.

Wrath materializes her body next to Donna. "Not everyone can be furious at any time."

Helena nods and looks at Daisy. "If he got angry or depressed now, he wouldn't be able to focus on healing you. And if something bad happened to you, it would affect Rose, thus affecting him and all his women. That is, even if his group members are in trouble, he has to continue being the unshakable link so that everything does not break."

Donna smiles. "My brother really grew up..."

Wrath rolls her eyes. "Ehh... maybe he's not that bad."

Helena makes a concerned expression. "Yes, he is not that bad, but... That woman is. Anyone who approaches him has to be prepared for whatever that woman has planned."

Daisy provocatively smiles at Helena. "So that stupid demon talk was just because you are afraid of his mom?"

"Humph!" The little Fallen Angel pouts. "What about you? You are scared of him because everyone second you stay next to him, you feel your love for your husband disappearing."

"..." Daisy doesn't answer that question and starts to float back to Laure's house. "I have to return... see you later."

"..." Donna and Helena look at each other in silence while eating their apples.

Wrath smiles. "What about a sparring session? Punching someone else in the face is always good."

After walking in silence for a while, Lucien sees Clovis half a mile away. He looks so happy as he collects apples to make wine and juice.

His calm expression is that of a person who doesn't have to worry too much about anything other than after his plantation and his only wife.

'Do you envy his simple life?' Lust asks in Lucien's mind.

He reflects on that question. 'I don't know... I don't regret anything, but things are getting so complicated... I just wanted to rescue my mother, but maybe she was never in danger, yet more problems keep showing up...'

Lust, more than anyone, knows how Lucien feels. 'I understand that things don't look easy, but they are not that bad. I mean, even if your mom is planning something big for all of us, the universe will still be the same.'

She continues. 'Power is the only thing that matters. Everyone does everything to get stronger, but few manage to keep evolving. To achieve high Realms, you need incredible techniques, powerful inheritances, and infinite treasures... well, for most people.'

'But for you... all you need is to give pleasure to women who in return will give you a lot of pleasure too. I know it's not easy to always be strong and loving for so many women, but this is your method of getting stronger, and you only need that.'

She materializes her body in front of him and kisses him. 'No matter who is planning anything to us or if your mom is manipulating us... when you get to the top of all power and take your wives with you, you will be the only one to decide how things are going to be, and your women will respect all your decisions because you were always the best for them.'

Lucien caresses Lust's face and neck as he kisses her passionately. 'It looks like a good future.'

She stops kissing and smiles lovingly. "If you're upset that you can't change something right now, it's because you don't have the power to do it, but when we have more power than any force in the universe, you will be able to solve any problem, or rather, there will be no problem."

"Yes..." He nods while stroking her hair. "Now is not the time to think about what we cannot change."

"Exactly." She responds. "We are getting strong quickly, but we can improve. You have to focus on making your girls stronger, but for that, you also have to feel good, or they will feel it when you are sad."

Lucien's mind is in a mess. He struggles to try to push all those questions about his mother to the back of his mind, but that is not so simple. Perhaps his whole life has been a lie created by a woman he no longer knows if was really real or fake.

However, at the same time, he agrees with Lust that only power will give him answers and options. To protect those he loves and discover the whole truth about that mysterious woman, he needs to get stronger. And to get stronger, he needs to keep doing what he does best…

"Let's go." He comments as he walks over to Clovis.

Clovis hears someone approaching with heavy steps and looks back. Then he sees Lucien. "Oh, it is you, my best son-in-law!"

Lucien laughs. "Have you had another son-in-law before?"

"Hahaha..." Clovis starts to laugh too. "Are you jealous?"

They approach and tap each other on the shoulder before Lucien speaks. "Maybe... Anyway, the plantation seems to be going very well."

Clovis takes out two bottles of apple wine from his magic backpack, a storage treasure much simpler than jewelry treasures and with a few meters of internal space.

He gives Lucien a bottle and starts drinking his one while looking at the apple trees. "Taking care of this plantation is very simple. I really like this life... I think some people are destined for simple and calm lives, while others cannot avoid being so great, and of course, they have to work hard because of that."

"Indeed, my good father-in-law." Lucien agrees with Clovis's words and raises his bottle. "A toast to the simple and also the complicated lives."

Clovis touches his bottle to Lucien's, making a glass sound. "Yeah, a toast to the lives we love."

They drink all the wine from their bottles while just looking at the apple trees in silence as they don't really have much to talk about.

"You have nothing to do because your wives are busy, right? I know how it feels because I felt that way on the day of my ceremony too." Clovis comments.

"Ehh... I actually have some things to do." Lucien responds. "I came to see if you could sell me some wine bottles."

Clovis quickly shakes his head. "I couldn't charge you anything for them."

Lucien looks at him with a concerned expression. "I don't want to cause any problems, and I really want a lot of bottles."

"It really won't be a problem." Clovis laugh. "Before, I used to sell wine and juice to travelers in exchange for gold to exchange for other resources with other travelers, but now the situation of the Alliance is excellent because of Eve, so we have everything in abundance. So, there is no problem with me giving you as many bottles of wine as you need."

"I see. I'm going to need a hundred bottles then." Lucien asks.

"Oh..." Clovis is curious about why Lucien wants so much wine some hours before his ceremony, where he will take a lot of wine for everyone. "Are you going to have a party or something?"

"Something like that..." Lucien smiles mysteriously, making Clovis just more curious.

Clovis quickly gives Lucien the hundred bottles of wine, and he keeps them in his storage ring. Then he thanks his father-in-law before flying towards the city.

As Lucien flies over the city, he hears Lust's voice in his mind. 'I am also curious about this. Are we going to have a party before the ceremony?'

'Yeah...' Lucien responds as he sees Aria and Ella flying towards the western part of the city. 'And there are our first guests...'
