Chapter 661 Before The Party Begins
Chapter 661 Before The Party Begins
?
The sun shines as a light rain falls on Lucien and the thousands of women in front of him. As Maya and Nea advance towards the storm, he has to help those thousands of Mermaids and Nagas get ready to fight again.
The troops are particularly excited about what's next, even though they don't know exactly what that is. Unlike Naomi and Gluttony's influence, which made them very anxious and hungry, Eve and Pride's aura makes them feel amazing, and Lucien and Lust's aura is unlike anything else.
Rumors quickly begin to appear among the troops; they wonder if they'll be able to touch, kiss, or even have sex with Lucien. Of course, everyone is primarily thinking about getting strong to defend their people, but if the process is so pleasurable, they couldn't help but enjoy it too.
In the sky, Lucien looks at so many Mermaids and female Nagas with an affectionate expression. His nature makes him want to take care of them as well as his troops who are still in Argerim, but the influence of Eve and Pride also makes him want to be the best Master for them, goals that complement each other.
To him and the troops, that situation seems just natural, but the women around him can't help but find it a little strange. Even Saria is jealous despite her not being his wife yet.
Meanwhile, Greed and Claire couldn't be more upset. For people as selfish as they are, seeing what should be their most precious treasure about to be shared by thousands of people seems like a true hell, or for demons, the damn heaven.
Lucien can feel Claire and Greed's upset gaze on him, and their feelings seem as thick and palpable as rocks; he even gets afraid of what they might do, so he smiles at them. "You know this is necessary, don't you?"
"That's what you're saying!" Claire crosses her arms and pouts.
Greed looks at Lucien with an angry expression, rolls her eyes, and then goes back to Claire's soul. For an ancient evil demon, she seems to act like a jealous young girl.
Eve sighs and shakes her head. "Just do what you have to do, Luci."
Pride doesn't feel any different from the other girls, but she manages to focus on the big picture more than her own needs, so she nods. "We will support you; with our auras together, the troops will fight like never before."
Lucien cares about his relationship with all Sins, but having Pride's approval is different; he can't help but respect her even with her acting irrationally many times. So, he nods to her in thanks.
"Let's do this..." He turns his attention to the Mermaids and Nagas again. "The faster we start it, the faster we can finish it."
"But who goes first, my people or the Mermaids??" Kamala asks.
"I was thinking about mixing them," He answers. "Although the Mermaids and Nagas have just fought together, there is still a long way before a stable alliance, so this may help bring them close."
Saria quickly nods. "That's a great idea."
Kamala can't help but be upset and jealous; she understands how her people hurt the Mermaids under Tyrion's leadership, but she thinks much more selfishly than her mother, and all she sees now is Saria stealing Lucien's attention by being so cool and radiant.
"I guess so... but the male Nagas won't be happy about that." Kamala comments.
Lucien can see that Kamala is very jealous of Saria, and it couldn't be different due to the influence of Greed and the other Sins. But he also understands that the male Nagas might resent him doing intimate things with all the female Nagas in that army; that too is inevitable.
Before he can say anything, Eve speaks first. "Luci can't do anything about it."
"They have to be happy that we are helping their people, and these men still have our aura to strengthen them; it is already a gift that few peoples in the universe can experience." Pride comments in her usual arrogant tone.
"Yes, yes..." Kamala has no arguments to complain, so she flies toward the Naga troops. "I'll ask the men to step aside and the women to form a line or something."
Lucien knows this sort of thing makes all men hate him, but he can't just ignore his powers because of something like that, so it just doesn't matter to him.
"Ehh..." Saria blushes as she seems hesitant about something; she tries to look at him but at the same time looks away. "I think we'd better do it over Bina's shell, right? I mean, at least it's better than doing it in the sea or... well..."
"Yes, please." Lucien smiles at Saria, and she quickly calls her loyal companion, the giant mystic turtle.
Bina emerges from the ocean, and Saria quickly uses her water magic to clean any dirt from the turtle's body; then, she activates the magical enchantments of the great turtle, causing the pool and other furniture to appear over its shell.
The giant turtle is perfect for the occasion as it can keep the group moving while Lucien gives his energies to the Mermaids and Nagas on top of Its shell.
He and the girls land on top of Bina, and Saria caress Its skin while whispering kind words to the turtle; then, she activates a globe-shaped blue barrier that only covers Bina's shell, creating a private place for Lucien to do his magic.
The girls begin to settle around the magic pool, and Lucien can't help but be confused, so he smiles teasingly. "Are you girls going just to observe or participate too?"
"Is this an invitation??" Greed quickly materializes her body and asks in an excited tone.
But before Lucien can respond, a giant foot made of white energy appears behind Greed and kicks her body away. That's clearly Pride's energy.
"We'd better stay close to affect the troops with both of our energies." Pride comments in a casual tone.
"Oh, really?" Lucien can't miss an opportunity to tease Pride.
Pride arrogantly smiles, and Eve rolls her eyes. "Come on; no one wants to see your thing, Luci; let's just do it right away."
Saria agrees about starting to power up the Mermaids as soon as possible, but about Lucien's thing... well, no one there thinks that way, not even Eve.
"Alright, alright..." Lucien starts to take off his clothes; he could just dematerialize them, but he knows that doing it slowly makes the girls even more aroused.
Lucien's wives just enjoy the show, and even Claire doesn't hide her gaze, but Eve just looks away while Pride doesn't take her eyes off Lucien's body.
Saria feels an instinctive urge to look at Lucien's body, but she tries to fight that desire. "Ehh… how are you going to do it? I mean, with how many girls per time?"
"I think five Mermaids and five Nagas per turn is a good number." He answers.
"Ten girls???" Saria can't help but be shocked. She clearly knows Lucien has many wives, but she didn't think he could pleasure ten women at once.
He smiles at her. "You know we don't have time for sex with thousands of women, right? A few kisses, caresses, and other minor things will have to be enough."
"Yeah, sure..." Saria nods, and every time her eyes find Lucien's body, she feels her own body getting warmer. Then she turns and flies out of the magic dome. "I'll see if Ramla already has the lucky first- I mean candidates."
Lucien can't help but smile due to how cute Saria is. Since he's about to work hard for several hours straight, he wants to enjoy that moment to step into the magic pool, close his eyes and just relax.
Only he, his wives, and his sisters stand over the giant turtle's shell, and the blue dome blocks outside sight and sound, but Lucien still feels Pride, creating a smaller barrier around him.
He keeps his eyes closed as he feels the warm water of the pool touching his body, then he hears two people enter the pool too; he recognizes them by their fragrance, Claire and Eve.
"What's wrong, Luci?" Eve asks in a concerned tone.
"Nothing, I guess." He answers. "We're doing what we planned, right?"
Claire just stays silent while Eve looks thoughtful. "Something has changed, I feel it... you're different since..."
"Since the Phoenix killed that Kraken." Pride materializes her body and goes straight to the point.
Lucien remains calm and lets the pool's water relax his body. "Nothing changed."
"Are you sure?" She asks. "You can have almost any woman you want, but not her."
"Do you think I don't know that?" He asks sarcastically. "Don't worry; I'm in control of my emotions."
Eve sighs. "I doubt any of us can be sure of that with the Bloody Rose messing with our feelings."
"I know..." He also sighs and then stands up before looking at Eve. "But I can assure you that even if I fell in love with her, I would never put her life before our family's."
"Don't you consider your wives part of our family?" Eve asks a question whose answer is obvious.
