Lucien lay on the bed with Mia on top of him. She kept kissing him. "Let's do more to celebrate."
He can't help laughing. "You are insatiable, aren't you?"
Although Lucien doesn't mind having s.e.x with Mia for as long as she wants, now he had to focus on the other girls who hadn't reached the Mortal Realm yet.
He turned their bodies on the bed and kissed her again. "We're going to have a lot to celebrate after recovering your mother's crown. But now it's the other girl's turn."
Mia could barely move after having so much pleasure. She smiled at Lucien as she found a comfortable place on the bed to rest.
Lucien looked at the girls who were having snacks. "Who's next?"
"ME!!!" They all jumped on Lucien at the same time.
Since they had been having s.e.x with Lucien for several hours, it didn't take long before Maggie reached the Mortal Realm too.
Three hours later, Marie, Anne, and Lena also reached the Mortal Realm. The group took a relaxing bath, where they clearly had some more fun.
Mia had already awakened her wind mana thanks to Lucien's demonic energy but, unlike Cassidy, who could only use Wind Slash now, Mia could also use her wind mana to boost her speed, in addition to a considerable increase in her strength and agility as improvements on her wind mana.
Marie and Lena had also awakened a bloodline ability, which was the evolution of their ice affinity to water affinity, so after entering the Mortal Realm, they also had some improvements in their physical capabilities.
Still, the main improvements is their mana, allowing them to control water and ice over great distances and quantities, like Angela.
Anne was a little disappointed because she didn't awaken a new ability. L.u.s.t said that the second tail she had awakened should be the change she would experience when reaching the Mortal Realm and that it must mean something they did not know yet.
She had heard stories in her clan in the Alliance about a legendary fox-woman who had two tails and that woman had incredible mystical powers.
Anne was eager to visit her original home and ask her mother about that woman to understand more about her possible bloodline abilities, but of course, she would only return to her original home when Lucien had time to accompany her.
For now, Anne was thrilled because although she did not awaken new abilities or even some elemental affinity, she experienced a significant improvement in her physical capabilities, especially her agility, which was very similar to Mia's.
Also, she loves the fact that Lucien loves her two cute tails so much.
Mia, Marie, Lena, and Anne were very happy with the increase in power they got from reaching the Mortal Realm, but the one who had the most significant change was Maggie, who had a colossal improvement in her vision abilities.
Maggie had awakened her ability to see through walls and other solid things in her childhood. She needed a few seconds to channel her special mana and thus open the magic circle that allowed her to use that ability.
She needed to stay very focused and the magic circle, which had a range of almost half a mile, in addition to not working on magic walls with a lot of mana like some stone walls that Rose can cast.
But now, besides being able to cast the magic circle much faster than before, she is able to keep using the ability without needing to concentrate too much. Maggie can also use the ability without having to make the circle and just using her eyes. But of course, using it that way only allows her see through things that she is currently looking at.
Also, the distance that Maggie is able to see through things with her eyes or the magic circle has increased to two miles, impressing Lucien and L.u.s.t.
Maggie had no way of testing her ability on Rose's magic stone walls right now, but she is able to see through some of the smallest flying rocks in Purple World, which were very large. Also, Marie and Lena made several magic ice walls, and Maggie could see through all of them.
Still, Maggie didn't only have a great improvement in her visual ability but also improvements in her physical capabilities, and a significant increase in her fire affinity.
Although her fire affinity is inferior to the magic affinity of the other girls, that was already expected as she has two different mana types in her body. She has gray mana she uses in her visual ability and fire mana.
L.u.s.t explained that there are people with varying numbers of magic affinities, but that the more affinities a person has, the less potent those affinities are, as their bodies have to divide the focus between the different energies.
How Maggie will develop her visual abilities or fire magic, it just depended on her.
Any instability that different types of mana could cause in girl's bodies is resolved with Lucien's demonic energy, which is a kind of universal energy that improves any others.
After hours of s.e.x, the girls needed to sleep. But Lucien went to take care of his other wives. Knowing that they might have to fight at any moment, he wants to keep everyone in their best possible state, that is, full of his demonic energy.
Scarlett and Olivia were always reporting about the adventurers and mercenaries to Lucien while Astrid reported about Lord Larousse.
Lord Larousse was gathering all the warriors under his influence in the city. Unlike Olivia and Scarlett, who preferred to use a small group of elites, he was actually preparing an army to go to the cave that Olivia talked about in her fake story.
Astrid wanted to tell the poor man not to put so much effort into it since he wouldn't be going more than two miles away from the city, but she couldn't say anything, or he could be suspicious of Olivia's story.
It was midday when he finished gathering enough soldiers that no threat could stop him from saving his son. In fact, he wanted to gather even more soldiers, but he didn't want to waste any more time.
Lord Larousse and two thousand of his soldiers went to the west side of Portgreen with Astrid guiding him.
She mentally warned Lucien, and he positioned his troops in the forest beside the road where Astrid will be leading Lord Larousse and his troops.
Lucien hoped to be able to negotiate with Lord Larousse using Jeanne's influence, but if they did not reach an agreement, he would threaten to kill Mason or even use those two thousand soldiers as real combat training for his troops.
---------------------------
Lord Larousse left Portgreen through the west gate of the city and followed the road with his soldiers and Astrid. He only cared about rescuing his son and his sister-in-law.
The large group walked in a line thought the dirt road as he and Astrid led the way.
Despite being surrounded by the great forest, the group walked smoothly as they had no fear, because they were in such a big group.
As soon as they were passing through a section of the road with a hill close by, Astrid stopped abruptly.
"What happened, Ravenous?" Lord Larousse asked in a confused tone.
Astrid ignored him and started walking towards the hill while speaking words that confused him and his soldiers even more. "I spent all night as an assistant to this old man... I need to be pampered a little."
Lord Larousse thought Astrid was talking to someone hiding on the hill or had gone crazy. Both reasons did not make sense.
"What the f.u.c.k are you doing, Ravenous?" He spoke in an angry tone.
Then a deep voice came from the top of the hill in a tone that was calm while sounding very powerful, making everyone who heard it shudder.
"Don't yell at my wife!"
Although Lord Larousse feared the person on the hill for an instant, he soon remembered that he has two thousand soldiers with him, so he yelled towards the top of the hill. "Who's there?"
*ROAR*
The most incredible and mighty roar that those two thousand soldiers had ever heard came from the top of the hill, making the group shudder again before they saw a huge white tiger appear.
Oya didn't know how to speak, but just as Lucien didn't want anyone to yell at his women, she didn't want anyone to yell at her master, so she made her point clear with a powerful roar.
At that point, the soldiers in the middle of the line were already rushing to the front of the group to see what was going on. Oya's roar echoed for a long distance, making everyone think that mystic beasts were attacking them.
Lord Larousse and the soldiers at the front of the group were impressed by Oya's majestic appearance. She looked so incredible in every way.
Then, beside the big white tigress at the top of the hill, a man appeared and stroked her head, surprising the group again.
"Who-" Lord Larousse couldn't help asking who this mysterious man is, but before he completed his question, he noticed very peculiar characteristics on the man's head.
Lucien was only about 150 meters from Lord Larousse, so his black horns could not be missed by him and other soldiers near them.
Lord Larousse couldn't help being more curious about the mysterious man than his relationship with Astrid. "What kind of demi-human are you?"
Argerim is a big world, and the people of the western continent know few things about the lands beyond the great sea. Still, Lord Larousse had already read hundreds of books about demi-humans of diverse races, but never one with black horns like those.
Lucien continued to stroke Oya's head as he answered. "Type of demi-human? Hmm... I'm not sure if demons can be considered demi-humans."
"Demons?" Lord Larousse was even more confused.
He thought that the mysterious man and Ravenous were playing with him and he was furious. "What the f.u.c.k do you want? What's your relationship with Ravenous?"
Lucien smiled at Astrid, who was coming to his side. "Ravenous? Do you mean Astrid? She's my beloved wife."
Lord Larousse was even more furious because Lucien did not seem to be taking him seriously as he speaks so calmly. "You have no idea who you're dealing with, boy."
"Oh? Should I fear you, old man? Or should I fear your weak soldiers?" Lucien maintained a mocking smile, causing Lord Larousse and his troops to become very angry at him.
Lord Larousse realized that talking to the mysterious man would not do any good without first having to demonstrate his power.
He looked at some archers among his troops. "Hurt his beautiful pet, but don't hurt Ravenous, I still need her."
*Woosh* *Woosh* *Woosh* *Woosh* *Woosh* *Woosh*
Before the archers could think of preparing their bows, several arrows pierced the ground around Lord Larousse.
The arrows made a perfect circle around his body in a very symmetric way, making it clear that whoever shot them, could have hurt and killed him if they wanted to.
Lucien stopped smiling and looked at Lord Larousse with a serious expression. "You are lucky that I prevented you from attacking my companion, otherwise if they had shot their arrows, your head would roll no matter how much Jeanne cares you."
Lord Larousse was very impressed by the arrows that made the circle around him. He had several scouts mixed in with his soldiers, but no one seemed to have noticed the archers who shot those arrows, and the mysterious man didn't even have to make a single move.
But then he was even more surprised when the mysterious man spoke about his sister-in-law. "What do you know about Jeanne? Where is she?"
*Woosh*
Another arrow pierced the ground near Lord Larousse. This time the arrow was very close to the middle of his legs, clearly threatening him.
Lucien recovered that mocking smile that would make any man very angry on his face. "Screaming is not a civilized way of talking."
Then a pleading voice came from behind the mysterious man, a voice that Lord Larousse knew well. "Please, don't intimidate my brother-in-law, Lucien."
