Lust Knight Chapter 26 - On the Road

Chapter 26 - On the Road

Marriage.
A word that could move any woman's feelings. Lucien expected the girls' surprising reaction.
He knew that the relationship with Marie and Anne would not be as easy as with Mia. He asked L.u.s.t for help, and she recommended that he made the girls envy Mia.
He was in a new world and alone, so of course, he needed the money, but his power came from his women, so it's better to give the chest to Mia. Mia was already sharing her stuff easily with him, so there was no way this move would have a disadvantage.
Marie couldn't help but envy Mia. She started to wonder if when Lucien asked her to serve, he was talking about marriage too. She thought he was very strange, but now he looked so good to Mia that she had to rethink how "devilish" he really is.
Anne already liked how cool he was when defeating mercenaries and then even soldiers of the Light Empire. She couldn't deny that she was a little afraid of him yet, but he seemed more and more to be some kind of "nice devil."
Mia couldn't handle their relationship evolving so fast. She couldn't believe he was giving her all the loot. She couldn't deny it after he claimed something like marriage.
"M-marriag-ee? Y-you..."
Lucien was happy that his plan to try new approaches was working. L.u.s.t claimed that Mia's v.i.r.g.i.nity could give him much more power. And if she really wanted to give it to him that much, it could be even better than she expected.
He hugged Mia tightly as he kissed her neck and sniffed her hair in a very loving way.
"I thought that as we will always be together, our relationship could already be considered as a marriage... Don't you want it?"
Mia knew she was falling for him very quickly, but she was unable to control her feelings... He was so handsome, powerful, and good for her. Her whole body wanted to scream; Yes Yes, Yes Yes...
"You know I want it... But you need to do everything I'm entitled to... like asking my mom..."
Lucien smiled at Marie and Anne as he comforted Mia, but in his mind, he thought things like; You'll all be mine sooner or later...
"Okay, Mia. I'll do everything properly... Now, take the chest, and let's go to your city."
Marie and Anne were almost drooling. "When did the damn handsome devil get so gentle?"
The girls had already cleared the mine, so they needed to report to the guild. Mia had already saved a lot of money, and now with the addition of the copper chest, she would undoubtedly have money for what she needed...
Then they all went on the road together. Marie and Anne walked ahead while Lucien walked in the middle of the group with one arm around Mia's shoulders and the other around her waist like a loving couple. Oya and Ko were right behind them, trying their best to smell Lucien.
Lucien asked if they didn't use horses. Mia said that ordinary horses were easy targets for magical beasts like wolves... And stronger horses were costly, so neither she nor the girls had them.
They followed the simple road, which passed through what appeared to be a simple tropical forest. Lucien could see small animals among the trees and hear magical beasts at long distances with his superior senses.
As they walked, Lucien asked several questions about general knowledge and Portgreen to Mia. The girls found it strange that he didn't know anything and questioned where he came from.
Lucien didn't want to lie to Mia. But it would be very complicated to say something about coming from a different world to becoming one with a sin. Someday he would tell everything, but now he would have to be selfish and think about his mother first.
He said that he came from a very distant kingdom with the intention to live independently of his family influence. He said he wanted to become a powerful adventurer and meet new places and people.
Marie and Anne understood well because they wanted to do the same thing, living away from their complicated families. But Mia thought quite differently... She loved her mother and wanted Lucien and her to get along so that they could become a family.
So they talked about many things. The girls told a lot about them and where they came from, but Mia was more mysterious as if she was afraid to tell everything. Lucien didn't press his cute girl, as he already felt a lot of affection for her.
They said that Portgreen bordered the Light Empire and Freelands, one of the largest countries in the world, which is called Argerim. The world of Argerim was going through a very difficult time, full of wars and conflicts.
But Portgreen was a neutral region, which did not interfere in conflicts. So it is a good place for adventurers and mercenaries to live away from armies and wars.
Portgreen was a smaller region than the others, and with fewer resources, so it was not the target of the Light Empire or the Freelands. But it didn't have a big army either. They counted on the adventurers guild and mercenary groups to make the city safe and lively.
The group traveled for several hours until nightfall. On the way, there appeared many magical beasts, but they are not very strong, and Lucien saw Anne fighting several times. She was a good swordsman, but he thought he could teach her a lot more.
Marie also impressed Lucien with her ice magic. She was very young but already had a lot of control over her mana. The girls wanted to deal with all the beasts that appeared to let Lucien rest because he had already fought a lot.
Even though Anne and Marie tried hard to impress Lucien, the most amazing was still Mia. The girls couldn't understand how Mia was so strong and fast. If she's so powerful, she should have helped Lucien fighting Light Empire's soldiers.
Only Mia and Lucien understood that Mia was not that strong before but was getting stronger as she and Lucien continued to kiss and caress along the way.
Whenever Mia wasn't fighting, Lucien ran his hand over her body. He kissed her neck and ear many times... She couldn't deny that she liked his caresses, and her body got hotter and hotter. She even had to change her clothes once after she got wet by her love juices.
Mia's connection with Lucien not only made them stronger but also made Marie and Anne jealous. They saw Lucien and Mia as a perfect couple who supported and protected each other. There was no way that young ladies wouldn't find it marvelous.
As it was already night, the group concluded that camping would be better. So they chose a good spot near a stream in the forest beside the road. Lucien went to look for firewood to the girls to make a fire pit and cook.
------------------
Far from where Lucien's group was preparing camp, where the road was no longer in the middle of a forest, but in open fields, two young men were running desperately without slowing down or looking back.
The young men ran at the maximum as they could for hours and avoided all the beasts that appeared. Since the magical beasts near the road are not very strong, most adventurers only fought against them to loot leather and other body parts.
They also used these fights as training to improve their skills, but as the young men are only two, it was easy to avoid most of the dangers.
These two young men are the elven brothers. After leaving Marie and Anne when Lucien appeared, they fled as quickly as they could and did not even realize that Lucien killed the mercenaries.
They wanted the girls so much, how could they not want beauties like Maire and Anne? But the fear of dying from the scary mercenaries was too much for them.
Mercenaries and adventurers had a lot of conflicts in Portgreen as both forces wanted to control the city, so the elven brothers did not doubt that the mercenaries would kill them.
The elven brothers continued to run. They did not want to waste time reporting the guild that mercenaries attacked their group. So they had a little hope of bringing help in time to save Marie and Anne.
"Brother, are you sure that the mercenaries will not kill the girls quickly?"
"Of course not. They are beautiful... I bet they will use them for a long time, so we just have to notify the guild quickly, and they can be saved."
"But you know... They'll be broke for being abused by so many men..."
One of the elven brothers had a sinister smile on his face.
"It will be good... Why did they have to be so proud and not give us a chance?"
The other brother did not want the girls to be hurt, but he could not deny that he was also upset that the girls were not theirs. After all, they're handsome and cool, so why didn't they fall in love with them?
"Maybe they'll be docile when they are rescued, and we can still have some fun..."
"Do you want to f.u.c.k so- Look there!"
The brothers were running down the road at night when one of them saw lights ahead. It didn't take long for them to recognize the guild flag.
Large groups of adventurers carried flags and wore clothes with the guild's emblem some times. It was often a sign of strength and high ranks inside the guild.
The elven brothers would take many hours even running to reach Portgreen, so they were lucky to find a group of adventurers on the road.
The adventurers are very united because the mercenaries constantly showed hostility to the adventurers who walked into smaller groups.
The hierarchy was still strong within the guild, so adventurers from higher ranks had great power and influence over beginners and adventurers from lower ranks. But when it came to helping their people, all adventurers helped each other very well.
The elven brothers ran, and it didn't take long for them to approach the large group of adventurers, who seemed to have more than 50 people.
"I recognize the big man in front. He's Mason."
One of the brothers felt that they were fortunate. "Mason, the A-rank adventurer? I heard that he is kind and treats all new adventurers very well."
The other brother was a big fan of Mason. "Yes, that's him. He'll undoubtedly save the girls quickly and kill those bastards mercenaries."
The group of adventurers stopped when they heard the elven brothers shouting for them. The leader, named Mason, turned and walked over to them with a gentle smile on his face.
"Hello friends, what's the problem?"
Mason was a big man with an average face. Short black hair... even though his eyebrows were sharp, he seemed to force himself always to look kindly.
He wore white body armor and carried a large ax on his back even though he had magic backpacks. Probably he wants everyone to see his great strength.
The brothers wasted no time and told the story quickly. They emphasized the fact that a n.a.k.e.d man appeared out of nowhere.
Mason always tried to be a kind of hero among the new adventurers because it was easy and good for his ego. But he didn't know all the adventurers who entered the guild all the time. So he was confused as to who these girls, which the elf brothers were talking about, were.
When he made a confused expression, a woman left the group and approached him. The woman wore white full-body armor as well, but she also had a magnificent helmet with feathers on top.
The elven brothers could not see many characteristics of the woman, but it was easy to see that she had a very s.e.xy body as her curves could not be hidden even by the heavy armor.
The woman didn't seem to care much about Mason and spoke in a very casual tone to him.
"They must be the new beauties, which everyone was talking about: a blue-haired wizard and a fox-girl. You must have shit in your head if you don't remember them."
Mason did not mind the insult of the woman in the heavy armor. He immediately recalled the new beauties, which joined the guild recently. He sent someone from his group to try to recruit them, but the girls refused them.
Mason thought it would be an excellent opportunity to save the girls and have them join his group so that they could be his new girlfriends...
"Get ready, guys! Let's kill some mercenaries and save our comrades!"
