Lust Knight

Lucien's wives smile when they see him throw Alexa to the ground. But the angels have the same expression as Helena; they are sure that Lucien is going to regret that.

*WHOOSH*

Alexa flies towards Lucien at an incredible speed, no longer holding her real powers. He can see her movements, but his body cannot move at that speed. He could use the teleport skill again, but he doesn't do it.

She attacks with her sword, and he can't block in time, which results in her blade making a deep cut in his belly. Before Lucien can make any move, Alexa spins in the air and kicks him towards the ground.

*BAM* *BOOOM*

As soon as Lucien's body hits the ground, it creates a crater while his blood splashes everywhere. He feels pain all over his body while his bones seem to want to break.

'LUCIEN!!!' He again hears the worried voices of his wives in his mind, including Lust.

'I'm fine, but you have to get used to it as I still have to endure several minutes...' He comments as he gets up and flies towards Alexa.

While she is standing in the air, he attacks her with his golden naginata, and she blocks while making a curious expression. "Why don't you use your teleport skill again? It consumes a lot of energy, right?"

Lucien continues to look into Alexa's eyes as he forces his naginata forward. The veins of his muscles are apparent through his skin as he uses all the strength he has, but he still can't move her back an inch.

Alexa is impressed with the strength he has because the more she experiences it, the more sure she is that he is in the Earth Realm for real.

Yet, she shakes her head with a disappointed expression as she starts to force him back and move her sword so that Its blade tip starts to approach his neck. "Come on; you can do better."

Lucien uses his demonic energy to the maximum he can, consuming it really quickly to boost his body to a level above the Immortal Realm early stages. However, it is still not enough to stop Alexa's sword.

The tip of her sword reaches his neck and begins to pierce his skin, making his wives and sisters get really worried. He feels the brutal energy of Alexa's soul weapon entering his body, but his energies quickly prevent it from doing any extra damage to him.

"Alexa!!!" Helena starts flying towards them when she thinks she is about to kill Lucien. But she has no such intention, of course.

"No!!" Lucien shouts at Helena and his wives, who want to interfere in the fight.

Helena stops in the air while making an upset expression. Donna and Wrath have a special glow on their eyes, while all Lucien wives have a loving similar expression.

However, Oya and Ko have the same sparkle in their eyes as Wrath. Their feral instincts tell them that Alexa is a really powerful enemy, and despite being a lot weaker than her, Lucien is fighting without any fear or hesitation.

"Master... incredible..." Little Ko comments while holding her mother's hand.

In the air, Lucien hears that cute comment, and a new wave of excitement begins to grow within his soul. The naginata begins to glow golden and his eyes golden-purple as he forces his body beyond the limits to reach a new level of strength.

"HAAAAAAA!!!" He yells with an excited expression, which Alexa finds especially impressive.

Then he manages to start pushing Alexa's sword back using his naginata, making her happy and shocked. [Where does his strength come from?!?!]

As soon as Lucien's naginata blade pushes Alexa's sword completely away from his body, he quickly attacks with his red katana.

*Bam*

But she holds his katana with her bare hands. Lucien's demonic energies flow into Alexa's body, but she is as tough as she is strong and fast, so her internal energies quickly kick out his energies from her body.

*Crack* *Smash*

Not only that, but Alexa destroys Lucien's red katana by squeezing Its blade very hard. Soul weapons can be destroyed and redone many times, but that can be dangerous for their owners' souls.

"Oh, was that your real soul weapon?" Alexa asks sarcastically. "What about the golden spear? It is not made from your soul, right?"

Lucien doesn't answer but tries to attack her again with his golden naginata. Yet, Alexa grabs his arm by the wrist and squeezes it hard enough to break the arm of any Sky Realm person, but his bones seem mysteriously tough.

She looks into his eyes as they both smile. "I would very much like to open your body and discover all your secrets... That would not be an alliance, but we would become close."

"I'm sorry, but I will have to decline such a generous offer." He chuckles and dematerializes the naginata from his right hand, transferring it to his left hand before trying to attack her again.

*Whoosh*

But Alexa also grabs his left arm by the wrist. Then Lucien quickly tries to headbutter her again.

*BAM*

The collision of their foreheads generates a powerful force wave that pushes Helena several meters backward while the Sins have to make barriers to protect the girls.

But contrary to the first time, Alexa does not move an inch, while Lucien is now the one who feels the most pain in the head. He blinks a few times while recovering his senses, but the confident smile does not leave his face, which leaves her more and more intrigued.

Alexa chuckles. "You caught me off guard the first time, but it won't happen again..."

*BAM!!*

So, before Lucien realizes, she headbutts him with such force that it would have thrown him to the ground, and he would only stop after penetrating dozens of meters into the earth.

But she continues to hold him by the wrists, which forces his torso away from his arms in a brutal way. All the bones of his arms and his shoulders crack loud enough for everyone to hear, but they do not displace or break.

*CRAAAAACK*

"AAAAAHHHH!!!" Although very resistant to pain, Lucien cries as he had never experienced anything like that pain before. All the resistance of his bones amplifies that pain dozens of times what it would have been if his bones had broken.

Along with that terrible pain running through his bones, Lucien also feels a lot of pain in his head. Yet, the worst is to feel the pain and despair of his wives.

Their deep connection works just as well for good things as bad ones. That amplifies all the pleasure they feel, but also the pain and other bad feelings.

Still, Lucien continues to smile. For him, that blow not only brought pain, but it was also somehow a victory. He was never hit so hard before, and despite Alexa's ridiculous strength, his body remains intact; he is still alive and able to fight.

Alexa also thinks so as she continues to look at him with a fascinated expression. "Not bad, not bad... You are really impressive."

He raises his head as blood runs down his face, staining his smile red. "Two minutes..."

"Hmm?" Alexa asks, but at the same time, Lucien disappears using his teleport skill.

*Blink*

He reappears behind and above her, already starting a kick aimed at her head. Although Alexa notices his movements quickly due to her being in a state of alert, she is unable to block that attack.

*BAM*

Lucien kicks with all his strength, which results in his demonic energy boot breaking on contact with the back of Alexa's head. Yet, her head just turns a few millimeters while her body doesn't move an inch.

With his attack having almost no effect on Alexa, Lucien quickly uses the repulsive force of his kick to fly backward. "Two minutes; I said it had passed two minutes already, so I just have to resist more eight."

"Hahaha..." Alexa laughs. "You are really optimistic. I really found you interesting, but this reminded me that I have no time to lose."

She prepares her longsword while looking Lucien in the eye with a sharp expression. "I'm going to knock you down, and when you wake up again, I will be already gone, taking my angels, my grandmother, and this cursed sword with me."

"Your head won't move away from my lap," Lucien comments with that confident smile, which Alexa is enjoying more and more. "At least for twenty-four hours."

*WHOOSH* *CLANG* *BAM*

She quickly flies up to him, and they start exchanging blows at super speed. But every time Lucien blocks ger sword, Alexa punches or kicks him, destroying parts of his armor and hurting his body directly.

While the spectators only see blurs in the sky, Alexa talks to Lucien. "You are an admirable opponent, Lucien. I'm sure you would defeat me if you were in the Sky Realm, or maybe even before that..."

Lucien keeps trying to follow Alexa's movements, but the only advantage he has is when he uses the teleport skill, and he can only do that one more time before running out of spatial mana.

"I can help you to have a power similar to mine..." He speaks while his life mana has a hard time healing all his injuries. "Your family could benefit from an alliance as much as my family."

Alexa does not stop attacking Lucien while making a thoughtful expression. "Are you really going to share all your secrets with me? Are you going to use your treasures to strengthen my people? Do you know how surreal that sounds?"

Lucien's armor is already covered with his blood as it falls from the sky. But he keeps fighting and trying to convince Alexa. "I know, okay? But that is the truth. You just... there is a way for you and all women in your family to receive all the benefits that my treasures can give."

*BAM*

She kicks him so hard in the belly, but she also uses wind force to pull his body towards her, preventing him from being thrown back.

Then she holds him by the neck while looking him in the eye. "Why only the women? There are also many loyal men in my family; why could they not receive the benefits of your treasures?"

Lucien can't breathe due to Alexa's grab, but his life mana can keep him that way for many minutes, so he speaks in a calm tone. "That doesn't work on men."

Alexa obviously thinks he is lying and brings his body down while lifting her knee, hitting his head really hard.

*BAM!!*

He again feels a lot of pain in the head while that blow destroys part of the skin of his forehead, revealing his golden bones, which Alexa finds fascinating. She never even heard of someone who had golden bones.

As Lucien is thrown up, Alexa quickly grabs him by the neck again. "Do you think I'm an idiot? If your treasures don't work on men, how are you so strong even while in the Earth Realm?"

It takes him a few seconds to regain his senses, and then he makes a strange expression. "Well... actually... it theoretically would work on men too... but... I couldn't do that."

"Why??" Alexa is really confused.

"Well..." Lucien smiles. "That would be very disgusting... you wouldn't want me to do anything like that."

"What the hell are you talking about??!?!" She can't understand anything about him, and it both puzzles and pisses her off.
