Chapter 228 Another Pleasant Journey
Chapter 228 Another Pleasant Journey
After an incredible night of many love sessions not only with his wives but also with many of his troops, Lucien reached the third layer of the Mortal Realm.
He was already close to breaking into this layer in about a week, but with each new layer, the amount of power needed to advance is much more significant.
Still, Lucien did it incredibly quickly, showing that not only are the effects of bloody rose is fantastic, but his demonic energy is getting more and more impressive.
And of course, with reaching the third layer of the Mortal Realm, Lucien not only felt a great improvement in his physical capabilities and demonic energy, but also his wings finally finish growing.
The process was painful, but Lucien is not the type of man that complains about a little pain. He is actually delighted with his wings, not only because they are very useful but also that they are very similar to Aylin's wings, which he found very beautiful when he had the vision of her.
His wings are blood red a little darker than Aylin's, but Its bones are exactly the same. The bones in the middle of the wings are like a bone membrane, at the same time, very resistant but also flexible. And the tips of the bones are hard and sharp.
Fully extended, each wing is a little over a meter and a half long, with a distance of three and a half meters from one end to the other.
Lust said that these kinds of big wings with sharp bone spines are characteristic of dragons, but the skin of his wings is not very scaly but rather a mixture of the texture of Aylin's wings and Lust's demonic wings.
His girls love to touch Lucien's wings, as well as his horn, tail, and perfect hair.
Just as Lucien had been learning to control his wings as they grew, he also has great control over them now, being able to retract them until they only take the space of his back.
Lust said that with some time, Lucien would learn to retract his wings into his back, but he would need a lot of training for that in addition to the process of making his wing bones open his skin being very painful.
But as he has an incredible life affinity, not only would he heal quickly, but he would also feel less pain. Although the retracted wings on his back meant Lucien can do anything normally, it would be nice to be able to retract them into his back to have long love sessions with his women.
Still, Lucien is very proud of his beautiful wings and would not want to hide them even if he could. He wanted to try flying right away, but girls like Astrid, Aria, and Ella are still learning to master the flight, so he understands that the process will not be that easy to learn.
But to use flight as an advantage in battle, he would need to learn it before he arrives on the battlefield. For that, he would have a few days while traveling to the southern border with not only his army of women but also with his male troops, a group of mercenaries, and a group of adventurers.
The next day eight thousand people were ready to travel early in the morning. Although there is some tension between the adventurers and the mercenaries, Scarlett and Olivia chose the friendliest people possible, and under Lucien's strict leadership, no one wants to cause problems.
Lucien didn't prepare for battle in secret, so everyone knew they are going to face an army of two hundred thousand Light Empire soldiers.
Although many people found it impossible to win, most had seen the power of Lucien and his women. Now the army of six hundred women has become more than two thousand, so most people are sure that this would be one of, if not the most incredible battle of all time.
Still, people are not going to follow them to watch the battle. Of course, there are a few very daring people who will follow Lucien's group a few hours after they leave the city to watch the fight from afar and not get in their way.
Lucien could travel with his female troops at an incredible speed, but he is also taking a group of mercenaries and adventurers. because he isn't in a hurry, they aren't traveling very fast but they are keeping a steady pace.
The mercenary and adventurer group's consists of A-ranks and the most powerful B-ranks. Still, many of them did not have good agility, and therefore they have mounts like horses and mystic beasts.
Although Lucien's wives can stay at home while only he needs to travel, many of them prefer traveling with him while others like Mia prefer to remain in the comfort of their home.
Lucien didn't need to ride a mount because he is the fastest person among them, but Oya really loves Lucien on top of her so that she can be so close to him in a way that no one else can.
Oya, in her expanded state, also allows Lucien to not only travel very comfortably but also to always have one of his wives and female troops in his arms so that he will already be boosting them for the battle.
Of course, he wasn't having sex on top of Oya, but his pats, kisses, and other caresses generated a lot of demonic energy in the girl's bodies, and that will still be an incredible boost even if they arrive at the battlefield in 4-6 days.
That generated a very peculiar scene where the big tigress ran in front of the group with Lucien on her top, caressing a different girl in his arms every 10-20 minutes.
Although most women find Oya beautiful and cute, all men keep some distance from her out of fear. It is obvious that the big tigress doesn't like any men other than Lucien.
Thus the group of Lucien and his girls traveled in front of the groups of adventurers and mercenaries who also stay about half a mile away from each other.
The journey is very comfortable and pleasant for all the women close to Lucien while it is very tiring for everyone else, although they take rest breaks every day.
Five days later, the group arrived in the area near the border of Portgreen and the Light Empire's territory at dusk. Lucien couldn't help but find the great sea beautiful. Despite being close to it most of the time, he still hadn't stopped for a few minutes to observe it.
Lucien knows that Amelia will not try some kind of dirty trick, or rather, he believes that. But as he did not know how much she is being influenced by Envy and the Bloody Rose, he chose to go ahead alone while the troops rested.
Of course, his wives can always be with him because, in case of a problem, he can open the portal to the purple world quickly to send them to safety or bring them to fight by his side.
So the girls went to the purple world as he headed towards the border mounted on Oya, with Angela in his arms to deal with any magic traps that could be waiting for them.
Rose is disappointed with herself for losing her position as the most powerful mage beside Lucien. Due to her missing her mother a lot and her recent worries, she has not been completely happy, thus generating less pleasure with Lucien.
She is already more than a year away from home, and now she is also worried about what it would be like when she goes with Lucien to another world, staying away from her mother for an undetermined time.
Of course, she is determined to walk beside Lucien forever. But she also loves her mother, and her father too. But what option does she have?
Rose thought about asking Lucien to take her parents with them, but she knows that it is complicated, if not impossible, for men to follow Lucien.
She didn't want to think about it... But she also couldn't deny that she is a little envious of Mia, Marie, Lena, and Ella for being next to Lucien with their mothers.
Their relationship with Lucien is so incredible that even though Angela was one of the last women to start having sex with him, she has already become stronger than her, a talented vampire.
Rose fears that if she does not find a solution to her concerns soon, Marie and Lena will also become more powerful than her, and although it doesn't matter to Lucien, the girls will always compete with each other.
While the little vampire waited at home with the other girls, Oya ran through the coast with Lucien and Angela on top of her.
Now running at high speed, Oya quickly covered a few miles. It didn't take long for Lucien to hear the sounds of Light Empire soldiers behind a large hill by the sea.
In front of the hill, there is a large open space, and Lucien concluded that Amelia choose this place as the battlefield.
The closer Lucien got to the hill, the more he could hear the sounds of people. Soon the sounds got much louder than the center of Portgreen city; after all, Amelia's army has two hundred thousand soldiers.
That large army would certainly be scary for most people, but Lucien and his troops of women are not afraid, but eager to face them.
Lust quickly noticed Envy's presence, but they had to move closer for Envy and Amelia to know that they are there.
Lucien waited on the beach two miles from the hill. He dismounted Oya leaving Angela on her back and started to caress her head. He continued caressing her head while they watched the sun disappear into the sea, and the two moons rise in the dark sky.
Lust already explained to Lucien that she and her sisters did not know which worlds the portals would take them to. They were aware that there are three worlds with life in that little galaxy beyond the sun, and that one of those worlds is much larger than the others.
After learning that there are two moons around Argerim, Lust concluded that those moons are the other two worlds, and of course, she explained everything to Lucien.
While waiting for Amelia and Envy to arrive there, Lucien looked at the moons, wondering how his other sisters are doing right now.
He couldn't help thinking about Sophia first. Lucien hoped that she would be here in Argerim, but because Amelia is already here, it dramatically reduces the chances of Sophia being here also.
Lucien remembered that he promised Sophia that he would find her, and they would be together forever, and although he has been on Argerim for only a few months, he already feels that he is failing to her because of his delay.
He also feels a little guilty for bringing so many women into his heart. Still, he couldn't simply use women for pleasure, not only because of his personality but also because without the emotional connection, the pleasure generated during sex would very inferior, causing him to generate less demonic energy.
All Lucien can do now is to keep trying his best, or rather, to try harder to become stronger, make his family stronger, and not only find Sophia but also his other sisters and help them deal with the Bloody Rose and protect them.
While his mind was away, his senses were focused, and Lucien noticed Amelia approaching them quickly.
He smiled when he realized that she was running at super-speed until she reached approximately 300 meters from them and started walking.
Amelia is very eager to see Lucien, but she didn't want to show her feelings. Of course, she forgot that Lucien has amazing hearing, and Envy laughed at her for that, making Amelia embarrassed.
Since he probably already heard her, Amelia started to run towards Lucien again. Reaching the beach, she saw Lucien looking at the moons, Lust on one side, a big white tigress on his other side, and a woman sitting on top of the tigress.
Amelia not only has to deal with her jealousy of lust, now she has to deal with her jealousy of the blue-haired woman, who is probably one of Lucien's wives.
If she knew that Lucien's main interest in Envy's copy ability is to give a demi-human body to Oya so that she can become one of his wives too, Amelia would undoubtedly be jealous of the big tigress as well.
Of course, Amelia would already be jealous of Oya just by finding out how important she is to Lucien, even without being his wife yet; after all, Amelia is Envy's partner, and so she will be a jealous girl as long as their soul contract last.
