Chapter 299 - It's Complicated

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

'Lucien...'

[Aylin?]

'Lucien! Are you alright?! Talk to me!!'

'Lust? I'm fine... Ahh... Just my body... is hurting a little.' Lucien can't help but be happy to hear Lust's voice in his mind again.

"LUCIEN!!" Lucien feels his upper body being shaken as he hears Amelia's voice.

He opens his eyes and sees Amelia's beautiful face with a worried expression. "Calm down; I am okay."

Lucien sees his wives around him with the same worried expression as Amelia while Eve keeps looking at his low body with a shocked expression.

He looks at his low body and realizes that his armor and clothing have been destroyed, leaving him naked and fully exposed, which would not be a problem if Eve was not gazing at his 'spear,' which is a little strange.

"It's been so long since I last saw it? Why it seems to have grown so much..." Eve thinks aloud as she remembers the countless times she saw Lucien naked in his childhood.

Lucien certainly has no problem with being naked even in front of anyone, even of people he doesn't know. He likes everything about his body and is not embarrassed that others see it.

However, the situation with Eve is unlike anything Lucien has experienced since he met Lust. Eve is not just a woman in his life, but she is also more than his sister. She is his big sis, the one who was always with him almost like... a mother.

"Hee... big sis... this..." Lucien doesn't know what to do.

Eve shakes her head to get rid of her shock and looks Lucien in the eye with a stern expression. "What are you waiting for?! Get some clothes! Or do you intend to keep showing this big thing to everyone here as an exhibitionist?"

[I bet he does!] Many of Lucien's wives think the same thing.

But Lucien quickly takes a pair of underwear out of his storage ring and wears it while trying to change the subject. "What the hell was that?"

"An explosion of energy. That angel used a boost pill, and that left his internal energies unstable. So when you cut him in half, that energy exploded, knocking you." Lust explains.

"Oh, I see... Is everyone okay? How long was I passed out?" Lucien can see that all his girls are alright, but he still wants to confirm that.

"Everyone is fine. Amelia and I were caught in the explosion too, but we were away from it, and we were just pushed back." Eve responds.

Amelia continues to check Lucien's body while helping him get dressed. "Yes, and you just passed out for a few seconds. Still, I was fucking scared."

Lucien's wives do not find Amelia's attitude strange as she has been trying to get more attention from Lucien and always be by his side, but Eve is increasingly confused about their new relationship.

"I'm sorry for scaring you, darling." Lucien strokes Amelia's face lovingly.

Amelia starts to caress Lucien's hand, and the mood starts to get romantic quickly.

Eve tries to think that they are just siblings showing family love, but she starts to get uncomfortable and quickly breaks the strange mood. "Ahem..."

She points to June, still knocked out on Angela's floating platform. "What about that one?"

Lucien starts looking around. "We need her to find out why her group came and attacked us... where's Pride?"

"She said she was almost out of energy and could no longer maintain her physical body, so she returned to my soul," Eve explains.

Lucien looks at Eve. "I know you're listening to me, Pride. Are you afraid to face me? You know I can get your energy back, and we could continue our business."

"..."

Eve is surprised by Lucien's attitudes towards Pride. "Listen, Luci, Pride is dangerous. She is aggressive and arrogant, so we should not provoke her."

"Nah, look at her now... hiding with a stupid excuse. You also saw how quickly I recovered energy for her with..." Lucien stops talking when he notices Eve's expression getting upset.

"With what?" Eve frowns.

The dominant attitude that Lucien maintained even facing Pride is immediately ruined by a single look from Eve, which shocks Lucien's wives, including Lust, Envy, and even Pride, inside Eve's soul.

[Is that the impact Lucien's mother will have on him?] The girls can't help but have the same question.

Lucien is really divided between two sides of himself, where one Lucien wants to remain the "alpha" who acts in a confident and teasing way, while the other Lucien thinks that anything he does will not pass through the unshakable wall that is his big sis.

[I'm not a little boy anymore.] Lucien calms down and explains the situation to Eve as he would to any other woman.

"Due to my connection with Lust, I can help women recover energy and get stronger with pleasure. In Pride's case, that was a kiss." He explains.

"..." Eve gazes Lucien in the eye without blinking for almost a minute, making him and everyone around them tense.

"Big si-" Lucien starts to speak in a concerned tone.

But Eve surprises him. "Okay, let me try it."

"Try? Do you mean the kiss?" Lucien doesn't believe he's hearing those words from Eve.

Eve frowns again as she quickly looks to Amelia, next to Lucien, before looking at him again. "Yes, the kiss. Or is my mouth not as good as Amelia's?"

"That..." Lucien starts to get a headache from the complicated situation.

Eve put her hands on her waist while ignoring the fact that thousands of people were looking at them. "Oh, do you want to deny that? I can feel your energy in her body as well as hers in yours. Damn! You even smell the same!!"

Amelia quickly takes a step towards Eve and begins to speak in a worried tone. "It's not what you're thinking! We just kissed... and... to get stronger... but we didn't cross that line."

Eve shakes her head. "Amelia... you never hid it from me. You were always upset with Lucien, and everyone thought it was for no reason, but I knew you were jealous of Sophia, and you wanted to be the one closest to him. It looks like you got what you craved so badly, don't you?"

"I-" Amelia tries to say something, but Lucien takes her arm and brings her close to his arms.

Amelia is thrilled that Lucien doesn't want to hide his affection for her and hugs him tight while ignoring Eve.

Lucien looks at Eve and speaks in a calm, gentle tone. "Let's talk about it calmly, big sis. Nothing here has changed, we are still a family, and we must keep together... more together than before."

Eve takes a deep breath. "Okay... I know we need to do things we don't want to get stronger... Good that it was just a few kisses, right? I didn't want to imagine what you would have done with Sophia if she were with you..."

"..." Lucien and all his wives are tense again.

However, one of them likes the situation more and more.

Intrigues? People hiding their feelings? Jealousy? Envy generates more and more demonic energy while the idea of saying something she shouldn't take over her whole being.

Lucien realizes that and sends a mental message to Envy. 'If you say anything about Sophia, I... I will never touch any part of my body on you again.'

'DAMN!! Okay... my mouth is shut.' Envy is upset but knows that she cannot disobey Lucien for her own good.

Lucien doesn't feel like hiding things from Eve, but he at least wants to be able to talk to her in private and explain things in detail. Depending on how she finds out about Sophia, she may even freak out.

He looks around and realizes that the fight against the angel's troops is over, and now almost all of Eve's troops are looking at them, very interested in their conversation.

"Big sis..." Lucien signals to Eve.

Eve is also aware that her role as great Queen is being destroyed by herself, but the issues surrounding her siblings have top priority in her heart.

"Ahem!" She tries to stay calm and points to the table that her troops prepared earlier in the middle of the open space. "Let's talk over there."

Lucien nods and starts walking towards the table, followed by his wives.

Luise approaches Eve and bows. "My Queen."

Eve returns to act calm and authoritatively. "Clean up this mess. Collect everything from the bodies and bring it to me. So, burn them."

Luise nods again and starts giving orders to part of the troops to clean up the battlefield while others patrol that area.

Lucien and his girls arrive at the table that Eve's troops have prepared. The table is full of fruits, cookies, meats, drinks, and other types of food, which the girls quickly start eating while resting after the intense battle.

He begins to check June, the angel knocked out. Lucien checks her wound while talking to Lust. "The blow was hard... will she be okay?"

Lust nods. "Yes, she is fine. Her power level is almost at the Sky Realm, so her body can resist many injuries before she dies."

Lucien continues to check June's body with a curious expression, especially while palpating her wings.

"I had another vision with Aylin... She fought against those pale people again, but that time they had big white wings. I also heard something about Faith." Lucien explains.

"The gods." Lust think out loud.

Envy, also next to Lucien, explains. "They use the faith of other inferior races to generate divine energy. The angels are a good example of that. The Gods even gave wings to the angels in exchange for their servitude, but smaller and not so bright wings, of course."

"I see..." Lucien comments as he continues talking to Lust. "I would like to know why Aylin's soul weapon was in my soul... every time I use the naginata, I feel closer to Aylin. I'm sure we are connected in some way."

"Who is Aylin?" Eve arrives at the table and quickly asks.

Before Lucien can answer, Pride materializes her body in front of him and looks at him with an inquisitive expression. "Who is Aylin? Come on; she is just the strongest person who ever existed."

Lucien looks at Lust with a confused expression, and Lust quickly explains. "Pride respects only one person in this fucking universe: Aylin, the Dragon Queen of War."

Envy laughs sarcastically before commenting. "Pride also thinks she looks like Aylin... something like having an ancestral in common. Can you believe that? Demons and dragons?"

As soon as Envy speaks those words, Lucien slightly flaps his wings, so much dragonic as demonic, making her realize that maybe something that seemed ridiculous before, now, is happening right in front of her.

Pride takes a step towards Lucien and looks him in the eye. "Tell me everything you know about Aylin."

Lucien slowly brings his face close to Pride's as he speaks in an arrogant tone. "Do you think you order me? I still want to beat you."

Pride does not back down, also bringing her face even closer to Lucien's until they are less than an inch from each other. "You can try."

"Really?!" Eve rolls her eyes.
