Lust Knight

Chapter 157 - So close, so far

Lorelai had no problems adapting to Lucien's training methods after tasting his c.o.c.k, so she officially joined his troops and began to live in the barracks.

Rebecca also understood a little about that situation, but she still found all very bizarre. Anyone who started to approach Lucien would have many surprises and shocks until they get used to his peculiarities.

Ron prepared a forge for her at the castle, and also gave her ten assistants. Lucien's women, as well as his troops, began to visit Rebecca to take measures for their armor.

Lucien also asked Rebecca to make armor for the men of his troops, totaling sixteen hundred sets of weapons and armor, in addition to the equipment for his wives.

It seems like a lot to finish in two months. But Rebecca's competent assistants will rough out the items, then she will do the finishing touches and other more complicated work. Working like this will basically be an assembly line, giving her more time to work on important items.

And so, Lucien continued his daily routine of training his troops by day and strengthening his women by night.

Cassidy, Astrid, and Rose are getting closer and closer to reaching the Mortal Realm while other girls are already arousing abilities and affinities as they get stronger.

-------------------

Lucien got up the next day after sleeping for only two hours as usual and went to have his morning bath with L.u.s.t.

He was feeling a more significant discomfort in his lower back and ran his hand over it, discovering something strange.

L.u.s.t looked at his back and explained the situation. "Your tail is already showing on your back. It won't take more than a month to fully grow, as well as your horns. But your wings will take longer."

"I see." Lucien understood that he would have to endure the discomfort that was not very painful, but it was always there to point out that his tail, horns, and wings were growing.

That reminded him of a subject he was avoiding asking L.u.s.t about, but he was very curious.

He gently stroked L.u.s.t's face. "I wanted to wait until you want to talk to me about it, but I'm very curious. Why aren't you showing me your horns, tail, and wings?"

L.u.s.t made an embarrassed expression, which was quite rare, as she tried to look away. "I... I was worried that you could find it weird."

Lucien held her chin and kissed her passionately. "You are very beautiful, and you will always be beautiful to me."

She started to stroke his c.o.c.k while he kissed her neck. "At first, I thought you would just be my host... But now, I know that there can never be another man for me."

L.u.s.t started to stroke Lucien's horns. "Also, you are a demon like me, so it's really stupid of me to keep them hidden still."

Then small clouds of purple dust began to appear around L.u.s.t's head and back. Soon Lucien could see two purple horns appearing on the top of her forehead.

Her horns were about eighteen centimeters long and curved backward, unlike his, which seemed to be more inclined upwards.

Her horns also looked the same width as his currently, which means that his horns would be thicker than hers when they were fully grown.

From L.u.s.t's lower back appeared small bat-like wings, which resembled Astrid's. But L.u.s.t's wings have small sharp bones at the tips and are dark purple.

Also, Lucien could see a fluffy tail excitedly swinging from side to side from right below her wings. Her tail is black and thin with a spade at the end that looked like a heart shape.

L.u.s.t's tail moved forward and wrapped around Lucien's hand. There was a small golden chain adorning her tail with a golden ring on the heart-shaped spade.

"Damn, L.u.s.t. You're so cute, so f.u.c.k.i.n.g beautiful!!" Lucien hugged L.u.s.t around the waist and sucked on her lips.

L.u.s.t's tail wings slightly twitched while she was very happy and excited. "Glad you liked it, hubby."

Lucien stopped kissing and turned L.u.s.t's body so he could get a good look at her wings. "Of course, I would love anything from you. You are extremely beautiful."

She smiled and blushed a little as she asked in a low tone, almost like a whisper. "Am I more beautiful than your mother?"

*Pah*

Lucien slapped L.u.s.t on the ass and then firmly gripped the base of her tail, making L.u.s.t shiver with pleasure.

"Why are you comparing yourself with my mom? She is my mother, and you are my wife, that is very different."

L.u.s.t tried to speak, but Lucien squeezed her tail as he rubbed his c.o.c.k between her legs "Also, as my wife, shouldn't you be respectful to your mother-in-law?"

"Mm... Yes..." L.u.s.t could barely speak as she m.o.a.ned under Lucien's caresses. His touch makes her feel so good that she can't even think straight.

Then Lucien slowly started to let go of L.u.s.t's tail and moved away from her, removing his c.o.c.k from between her legs. "You know the punishment for being a naughty girl."

"No! No, please!! I'm not going to make those comparisons anymore, please continue stroking my tail." L.u.s.t squeezed Lucien's c.o.c.k with her thighs as she begged him.

"Fine... You must keep your original form, you are so beautiful." Lucien continued to stroke L.u.s.t's tail and kiss her neck while she pleasured his c.o.c.k with her thighs.

So, they had an intense love session where Lucien ravaged L.u.s.t's ass while holding the base of her tail.

Then he had his morning jogging exercises with Oya, and when the day dawned, he started training his troops after having breakfast with his girls.

And so two weeks went by…

-----------------------

Great Sea, east of Portgreen, at night.

Ivan's huge ship kept going towards Portgreen. Two wind mages on the deck, keep channeling a strong wind on the sails, always maintaining the ship at high speed.

In one of the bathrooms of the ship, there was a man bathing in a bathtub with slightly greenish water. In the corner of the bathroom, there are some grey crystals.

The adventurers had been using the green crystals in the water to absorb their energy. While some adventurers could only drink a little of that water, those closest to Ivan could bathe with it.

As the water lost its green color, the man in the bath quickly becomes stronger. Of course, this process consumed the energy of the crystals very quickly as well.

The adventurer, who a month ago was S-rank, raised his hand and flames started to come out of his fingers.

"Woah!!" The man exclaimed while thinking aloud. "My control over fire has never been so good."

The man got out of the bathtub, put on some clothes, and went to the ship's kitchen where his companions were.

Arriving at the kitchen, he raised his hand that glowed with red flames. "Hahaha, look at this Ivan. I can be considered SS-rank now.."

Ivan laughed and raised his wine mug. "Good, good. Now, we have more one SS-rank adventurers."

Ivan has been using the crystals to strengthen his group. Of course, he used most of them for himself, but six of them are peak SS rank now. Ivan is SSS rank, close to the Mortal Realm, but they don't know about it and believed that the SSS-rank is the power limit of the world.

The adventurer laugh. "With this power, we can take control of Portgreen easily. The damn mercenaries will never bother us again."

A big man beside Ivan also laughed. "Yes, yes, we will annihilate the mercenaries. But... Well, Ivan... I would like to ask something."

Ivan put his hand on the big man's shoulder. "What is it, Karl."

Karl looked as big as a mountain but blushed like a child while he was speaking embarrassedly. "I... Well... When we face the Red Lady Party... I request that we don't kill Red Lady... I want her."

"Hahaha... So you are in love with the wild Red Lady? You and half the city, I suppose..." Ivan laughed.

Then Ivan pointed to another hooded man sitting quietly in the corner of the kitchen. "Karl, I can't help you with that. Leo already has plans for her."

Leo spat on the floor before speaking in a rude tone. "That bitch is going to pay for what she has done to me. Whenever I tried to flirt with her, I ended up being beaten by her thugs. Now that I have this power, the first thing I'm going to do is to beat the shit out of her."

Karl was a little sad because he knew he couldn't beat Leo, who had reached in the SSS-rank shortly after Ivan.

Then he drank some wine while making a thoughtful expression. "So ... I think I'm going to have to find another wife. That one... The demi-human A-rank... Ravenous? She's beautiful…"

Leo laughed. "She's a whore who's already been with the whole Guild. You should be looking for some young novices."

Karl shook his head. "I don't think I can be too demanding about that."

Everyone laughed while Ivan commented. "We should think about women after we take control of the city. With these crystals, the Guild will be more powerful than ever."

-----------------------

Meanwhile, in the great royal castle of Cladena, the capital of the Light Empire.

In the best bedroom on the top floor, Amelia was looking out the window.

'Envy, can you feel any of them yet?' She used mental communication.

Envy responded quickly. 'Not yet. You need to generate more demonic energy until I can maintain my form for longer and increase the radius of my perception.'

Amelia sighed. 'I miss my sisters... Also, I miss him...'

Amelia's eyes sparkled with expectation when she thought of something. But then she blushed and shook her head.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

Then she heard someone knock on the door. "You may come in."

The door opened, and Dawn, the daughter of the Light Empire's King, entered and kneeled down. "Forgive my intrusion, Holy Light Envoy."

Amelia waved her hand at Dawn to get up. "It's okay. Say what you want."

Dawn was the most feared and respected woman in the entire Light Empire. Her fame is known all over the world, and 99% of demi-humans fear her fury in battle.

Still, she seemed to tremble with fear just from being in the presence of the Holy Light Envoy.

She kept her head down. "I'm sorry, but I have some bad news."

Amelia sat on a chair and spoke in a neutral tone. "Report everything."

Dawn wasted no time and started reporting. "The troops sent to make our way through the great forest suffered some losses. It was just a battalion, but they were brutally annihilated."

"The Alliance? Bandits?" Amelia asked.

"The battalion went to deal with some bandits, but from the scouts' report, the enemy seems to be more complex than simple bandits." Dawn continued…

"Some scouts followed trails to the Portgreen border. There was a city, Bluewind. Spies entered the city disguised as travelers to gather information."

"From what we discovered, the King died, and the Queen took the throne with the help of some mysterious allies. We didn't get much information about them, just some physical descriptions."

Amelia was getting bored with Dawn's report. "Get to the point. How is that connected?"

Dawn apologized and tried to speak faster.

"It is not exactly accurate, but the spies think that the same man who attacked our troops in the Nunid Kingdom is the mysterious ally of the Queen of Bluewind and he was most likely in the forest when our soldiers died."

Amelia made a thoughtful expression. "Why do you think they are the same person? Can't they be similar people?"

Dawn made an embarrassed expression. "Is that the reports always have the same strange thing in common... Well... They say that this man is the most handsome person in the world..."

The moment Amelia heard that she remembered someone and started laughing. "Most handsome in the world? Well, maybe of this world... Because I know..."

Then she blushed and looked away. "Do you know anything more about him?"

Dawn nodded. "Yes, the spies on Bluewind have heard that his name is Lucien, but we have no last name."

"Uhm…" Amelia was so immersed in thought that she didn't hear dawn. She knows she should have been pay attention to Dawn's words, but she couldn't help getting lost in thought.

But Envy heard everything and spoke to Amelia mentally. 'You fool! It's him. Dawn is talking about your brother.'

Amelia jumped up from her chair. "Lucien?!?! Where is he?!?! Tell me now!!!!"
