In a large room on the second floor of the main Guild building, Olivia is standing in front of some people with angry expressions.
A man pointed at Olivia. "I can't believe you betrayed Ivan!! You betrayed the whole Guild, and because of you, my son is dead!"
Olivia rolled her eyes as a woman pointed at her too. "F.u.c.k you, Olivia!! You are the cause of the death of so many people!!"
Then an old man, seated in a chair, spoke calmly. "Olivia is not to blame if your children were so stupid as to follow Ivan into a losing battle. Stop barking like irrational dogs."
Another woman angrily looked at the old man. "Bullshit! How would they know that Cassidy would have an army of such powerful people?"
Then the man who had spoken earlier continued to point at Olivia. "Olivia knew!! She could have avoided all of that by warning them!"
Olivia shook her head. "I told them to surrender, or they would die. I didn't need to do that, but I still tried to help them."
The man started walking towards her with a furious expression. "You might-"
*BAM*
Before the man could finish his words, the door of the room was kicked open and hit the wall, making a loud noise and startling everyone.
"I don't have the right to tell my wife what she must do. So who are you to give her orders?" Lucien spoke calmly, but everyone was already shaking with fear, seeing that handsome face and... horns.
"I didn't mean that... it's just..." As Lucien walked towards the man with a strange smile on his face, the poor man stepped back and raised his hands defensively.
"Oh? Do you even know what excuses to make?" Lucien continued walking slowly towards the man, and they both went towards the windows of the room.
The man was desperate because everyone knew of Lucien's reputation for being extremely brutal. "Forgive me, please. I Jus-"
Lucien stopped in front of the man when he was at the window and couldn't move anymore. "What kind of man would I be to let any idiot disrespect my wife?"
"No, please!!" The man started to cry as he felt a hot and smelly liquid run down his legs.
Lucien looked at him with a cold expression. "If you survive the fall, I will let you go."
"Fall? What fa-" The man tried to ask, but choked on his words when Lucien landed a powerful kick on his belly.
Well, it was a powerful kick for the man, but in fact, Lucien used very little of his strength just to kick the man out of the room... through the window.
*Bam*
*Smash*
The man passed through the window, breaking the glass and flew several meters away from the Guild building. He was not very strong, only being in the D-rank, and suffered many injuries while rolling on the ground.
His body was all covered in blood from the various cuts caused by the glass and stones on the ground, but the man was still alive. Well, his heart was beating.
Lucien looked at the other people in the room. "Oh, he's alive. Well, he won't be able to walk in this life anymore if he doesn't get excellent medic treatment right now, but he was lucky to keep his life."
Then he walked towards Olivia, who couldn't hide a gentle smile on her face, now no longer hidden by a mask.
He hugged her waist and kissed her cheek tenderly as he spoke to the other people in the room. "If you want to blame someone for killing your family, blame me. I killed them because they were my enemies."
The people, once irritated, now looked at Lucien with expressions of fear. They knew that Olivia was with Lucien, but they did not know that he would protect her as if she were his main wife.
Now they regretted trying to get some compensation from Olivia. Well, some people just wanted to give their family a decent funeral.
The old man sitting in the chair smiled. "Good boy, take care of your wives, and don't let others intimidate them."
Lucien laughed as he stroked Olivia's face. "Yes, old man, I'll take good care of them."
Then he spoke to the other people in the room. "Do you have anything more to demand from my wife?"
Everyone shook their heads. The woman who had complained before spoke respectfully now. "Olivia is giving our family a good funeral, so we can only be grateful. Sorry for causing more inconvenience."
Lucien didn't look at them but remained focused on Olivia's beautiful face, making her blush a little. "You may leave now then."
"Yes, my King." Everyone spoke respectfully and quickly left the room, leaving Olivia and Lucien alone. Well, L.u.s.t is always with him, inside or beside his body.
"You like to intimidate people..." Olivia couldn't help but comment in a playful tone as she stroked Lucien's face.
Lucien laughed. "Only those who have bad intentions toward my family."
Then he bit and sucked her lips in a way that she loves. "But you can't say that I didn't give second chances even when I had the right to kill some of my enemies."
Olivia knew that Lucien was talking about her, and she really couldn't deny his words. After all, he not only gave her a chance to redeem herself for her mistakes but let her be his wife, something that Olivia would always be grateful for.
She smiled. "So things with you are love or war."
"Yes, I think that defines me perfectly." Lucien smiled.
Lucien continued to kiss and caress Olivia's body. She couldn't help but get horny and naturally started to undress.
"Let's do it here..." She whispered as her body was already warm, ready to receive Lucien inside her.
He pushed her over a sofa while his kisses went from gentle to passionate and wet.
But then he stepped back while apologizing. "You know I want to eat you right here, but the other girls are waiting for us at home to do it together. We will have a big celebration party tonight, with everyone together."
Olivia couldn't deny that she was selfish for wanting to spend time alone with Lucien. In fact, most girls liked to spend time alone with him, except for a few daughters who knew about Lucien's fetish for having s.e.x with them and their mothers together.
Lucien's wives couldn't complain about him not giving them time alone sometimes, but that wasn't always possible, and Olivia understood that he couldn't do it now.
She kissed him passionately again as she ran her hand over his wonderful chest. "Okay, I'll behave."
Lucien sat on the sofa next to Olivia while explaining why he came. "Well, I came to see you, of course, but I also came to talk about that Crystal you mentioned before. L.u.s.t is curious about it."
When he talked about her, L.u.s.t materialized her body on Lucien's lap. When he was at a distance from other women, she would appear at his side, but when he was very close and in contact with another woman, she liked to stay on his lap to show the power of the first wife.
Olivia clicked her tongue while looking at L.u.s.t jealously. Lucien couldn't help commenting. "Look at you two, both of you are jealous of each other even though I satisfy and give you all a lot of attention."
"Hubby." They both lowered their heads while making regretful expressions.
L.u.s.t started to move to get out of Lucien's lap, but he held her against his body. "Stay here. You know I like to feel your lewd ass."
While L.u.s.t smiled proudly, Olivia was more jealous. Lucien sighed as he moved L.u.s.t to one of his thighs and made room for Olivia on the other. "Come on. You both can sit on my lap."
"Hubby is the best!" Olivia smiled like a child getting candy as she sat on Lucien's lap next to L.u.s.t.
Lucien couldn't help shaking his head. "This was supposed to be a conversation about an important matter, but look at what situation turned in..."
"We can have an important conversation while having s.e.x." L.u.s.t couldn't help but comment jokingly.
Olivia followed the joke. "Yes, I like that idea. The woman with hubby's c.o.c.k inside will be the only one who will be able to speak at that moment."
Lucien laughed. "We will try it at another time. Now about the crystals..."
Olivia quickly took one of the green Crystals that Ivan had given her from her storage ring. "I didn't use this one because I believe that the best method of getting power is when you fill me with your love."
L.u.s.t took the green Crystal as she studied it. "Yes, Lucien's demonic energy is one of the best methods for strengthening us, or rather, the best."
"But this Crystal is dangerous. This is a mystic crystal. Using it in raw form can even empower someone but at high costs. After a certain period of use, the person will become mad and sick, so they will soon die."
Lucien can't help comparing the Crystal to the Bloody Rose. "Is this similar to the Bloody Rose?"
L.u.s.t quickly responded. "Yes, this and the Bloody Rose are pure forms of energy. Absorbing that energy without a mediator does more harm than good to the body."
Lucien's demonic energy is both pure energy and a mediator, or rather he helps the girls to control their energies with his demonic energy that can adapt to any type of energy.
In this way, the system of strengthening of the sins is so incredible because the demonic energy that they could all generate in different ways would make them very strong quickly. Of course, Lucien was able to do this so well with L.u.s.t that it doesn't even compare to the other sins right now.
But there are also a number of other good strengthening forms and techniques. The families of the most powerful races in the universe keep these techniques as their most valuable secrets and pass them on to their descendants, thus allowing them to become strong, faster than other people.
Still, in general, most forms of strengthening were linked to how to absorb energy from sources such as mystic crystals.
L.u.s.t explained that to Lucien as he did not know this subject even though he came from a medium world due to his father, who forced him to spend all of his time training combat.
"These crystals, as well as other raw energy forms, can be used by alchemists and others with secret techniques to create potions, foods, and various other items to be absorbed and used by people without causing a health risk."
Before Lucien asked, she already answered his question. "No, no one was able to do anything like that with the Bloody Rose. The best alchemists and other very powerful people have tried over the years, but all of the methods have resulted in the same result, the death of the users."
"The method your father used to divide Bloody Rose between you and your sisters is one of the best as it allows the Bloody Rose to be slowly dissolved within you, but even when other people tried it on a thousand vampires, the strongest of their race, everyone died horribly."
Lucien understood that this issue again had to do with the plan that the mysterious woman spoke to Pride about using the pentagram pact in a different way that would allow Lucien and his sisters not to go crazy and die because of the Bloody Rose.
Well, regardless of what would happen, they could not change the past, so they had to move on and follow that plan or find a better one to resolve the situation.
Although no one ever managed to come close to surviving the Bloody Rose's side effects, Lucien couldn't give up, for his mom, himself, his sisters, and his whole family.
L.u.s.t spoke again about the crystals. "This is the best and fastest way to get raw energy for most people, so these crystals are valuable resources on all worlds."
"While the people of this world use gold and silver as currency because they are precious metals, in the medium and superior worlds, mystic crystals are the most popular currency."
"In fact, the amount of crystals in a world is one of the main factors that determine whether it will be a superior, medium, or inferior world."
"While in the superior worlds, the number of crystal sources is vast, allowing more people to reach more powerful realms, the medium worlds have fewer crystals, and the inferior worlds should, in fact, have none at all."
"When a source of mystic crystals is discovered in an inferior world, people from other worlds usually go to that world and colonize it."
"If the crystal source is exhausted quickly, the world is abandoned by those people from other worlds, but if more sources are discovered, that world will naturally become a medium world as more powerful people will continue to go there in search of these crystals."
While L.u.s.t talked about the crystals, Lucien and Olivia listened carefully. And of course, Lucien and L.u.s.t would also explain all of this to his other wives later, and other essential people when needed.
