Lust Knight

Chapter 189 - Ambush (1/2)

Dennis now knew that his son is safe, so his focus changed to redeeming himself with Cassidy, and not to offend that damn devil, which he would from now on have to call his King.

"How can this humble servant be useful to you, my Queen... and my King?"

Lucien wasted no time and got to the point. "Just killing Ivan and Black Hand will not be good. We need to put on a great show and show everyone Cassidy’s power."

Dennis quickly nodded. "Yes, my King. My soldiers and I will fight by your side."

Lucien shook his head. "No. You are weak and stupid. I need you to do something else while I deal with our enemies."

Dennis can’t help feeling offended by Lucien. He is the most powerful person in Portgreen after the Guild and the mercenary leaders... but does Lucien call him weak and stupid?

But Dennis couldn’t complain, or he would have to pick all his teeth off the ground, or even worse...

"I understand my limitations, my King. But the Guild and the Mercenaries groups have thousands of members... but you..."

"I have soldiers and each one is worth dozens of the mercenaries and adventurers you’re talking about. Also, we won’t be fighting the whole Guild and just a minor part of the mercenaries." Lucien responded.

Dennis was confused for a second before remembering how he got there. He looked at Astrid while thinking aloud. "It’s not possible... Olivia? How?"

"You don’t need to know every detail. You just have to do what I say." Lucien spoke in an authoritative tone.

The more Dennis tried to understand Lucien, the more he was confused and impressed, so he stopped overthinking. "Sure, my King."

Lucien explained his plan. "The fight will be tomorrow morning, probably in front of the western walls. I need you to notify as many people as you can and ensure their safety while they watch the show."

Dennis understood that Lucien has connections between the Guild and the Mercenaries, so he needs him to take care of the common people.

And in fact, this task is perfect for him as his influence is really focused on people who do not want to join the Guild or the Mercenaries.

He nodded. "I can handle this without any problems, my King."

"Okay, I’m going to send someone with you so that we can be in contact, and I can tell you if there are any changes in the plans," Lucien spoke.

"A messenger?" Dennis asked.

Lucien shook his head. "One of my wives. We have a better way of communicating."

Jeanne quickly spoke as Lucien thought it would happen. "It can be me."

Although she hasn’t yet taken the last step with Lucien, Jeanne has his tattoo and can communicate with him mentally.

Lucien nodded, and Jeanne approached him to say goodbye. She instinctively moved her face towards his to kiss him.

But Lucien is not the type of person who is satisfied with soft kisses, especially when saying goodbye.

He held her by the waist and glued their bodies together while starting a wet and passionate kiss.

Jeanne preferred to wear heavy armor most of the time, but since she started her relationship with Lucien, she has been using medium armor made mainly of leather and fabric, precisely because he likes physical contact that much.

Even being in front of everyone, which Jeanne did not find a good time for demonstrations of affection, she did not resist the warm and pleasant embrace that she loves so much.

Lucien ran both hands over her ass while she hugged his waist.

While enjoying the wonderful mature flavor of Jeanne’s sweet mouth, Lucien began to talk to her mentally. ’I will miss you.’

Jeanne loves the feel and taste of Lucien’s tongue moving around hers, and she followed his lead as well as making cute m.o.a.ns involuntarily.

She promptly answered him. ’I already miss you.’

Lucien knew that all his relationsh.i.p.s are developing at different paces and that the situation with Jeanne still has a lot to evolve until her heart is entirely his.

But he can’t stop his body from desiring her body so much as well as his possessive ego feeling good about her showing the same desire.

He also knew that Jeanne had spent a lot of time away from Portgreen and her previous life, so she might need time to settle her things, put her thoughts in order, and also to understand her feelings about him, Mason, and Dennis.

He continued to kiss her while making his point clear. ’If all goes well, tomorrow night, we will be celebrating our victory at home, in our home.’

Jeanne still didn’t completely know how she felt about being with Lucien. But the difference between Dennis’s house and Lucien’s house is clear. At Dennis’s house, she always had to take care of him and Mason, and she had sad memories of her late sister. At Lucien’s house, she is loved very much, treated well by everyone, and it’s the place she has felt the most comfortable in her entire life.

She couldn’t imagine a better place to call home than Lucien’s house.

’I will be there.’ She answered.

Lucien squeezed both of Jeanne’s buttocks, making her m.o.a.n loud enough for Dennis to be furious and the girls to laugh.

Then he ended the kiss, leaving her with a very flushed face and an embarrassed expression.

She said goodbye to the girls and then looked at Dennis. "Let’s go."

"My Queen, my King, I will do as you ordered me." Dennis bowed to Lucien and Cassidy before heading the road with Jeanne.

After walking a few meters, Jeanne turned and smiled at Lucien. "See you soon."

After they left, Astrid hugged Lucien. "It was a short time away from you, but it felt like an eternity."

Lucien laughed as he kissed Astrid. "I missed you, too."

"Do you want me to go back to Olivia?" She asked.

"You don’t have to. Olivia is dealing with Ivan without any problems, and Ghilanna is with the secret group."

"Mm." Astrid made a cute sound of agreement as she enjoyed the pleasant smell and warmth of Lucien’s body.

Then Lucien looked at his wives. "I will help the troops now, and then we will be together until it is time to go."

Having helped the girls who were very close to entering the Mortal Realm to make this evolution, Lucien now wants to focus on boosting his troops for the battle that will most likely take place the next morning.

Still, he would always think of his wives first, and so he wanted to give them as much demonic energy as he could. Of course, he could use half of the day he still had with his troops, and a few hours before morning, they would give him approximately eight hours in the Purple World because of the time dilation.

When Lucien talked about helping the troops, the women smiled excitedly, that same way his wives smiled when he said he would spend the rest of the time with them, after the troops.

His wives returned to Purple World while he sent Neola to call Kylee and the other troops who were on the road watching Dennis’s soldiers.

Dennis and Jeanne returned to Portgreen without problems and started preparing for the big show.

Lucien explained his plan to Olivia and Scarlett. Then they started to plan how to get Black Hand, Ivan, and their groups to the area outside the city in front of the western walls.

So he spent the rest of the day with his troops. There was no time for Lucien to have s.e.x with all five hundred and ninety-nine women, but they could at least drink some special milk.

Then he went back to Purple World and stayed with his wives. Everyone gathered in his big bedroom, and even Kara, who wouldn’t fight, had some fun.

--------------------------

Red Lady’s underground hideaway, north of the city.

It was night time when a woman entered the main hall and went towards the table that Scarlett, Angela, Rose, Black Hand, and other high-ranking mercenaries were sitting at.

The woman is Scarlett’s most loyal mercenary, and they had planned an act.

"Boss." The woman bowed to Scarlett respectfully.

Everyone at the table realized that the woman had something important to say just by her quick steps. Black Hand and the others did not look at them, but they remained silent to pay attention to the words that the woman would say.

"Report," Scarlett spoke.

The woman smiled, making it clear that it was good news. "Everyone is ready as you ordered."

"Everyone? No one is missing, right?" Scarlett asked in an animated tone.

Black Hand was very curious about what they were talking about, but he would not ask anything because he was actually scared of Scarlett. After all, she seems to be even more powerful than before.

The woman nodded. "Yes, everyone is already at the agreed place and waiting for your orders."

Scarlett smiled and pointed to a seat at the table. "Drink wine with us, and rest, you deserve it."

Then she looked at Black Hand, who was making a curious expression. "Big news."

"Do you remember that group of powerful people I told you about? They are ready to fight, so we will be able to defeat Ivan soon."

Just as Olivia told Ivan a false story, Scarlett also did the same with Black Hand. She said she was away from the city so long because she was gathering a group of powerful people to use to take control of Portgreen.

She also said that in the fight against Olivia and the adventurers, some people from that group had intruded into the battle resulting in a draw, but that she managed to convince that group to help her.

Black Hand nodded. "Oh, did they really come? This is excellent!"

"Yes, this is the beginning of significant changes in the administration of this city." Scarlett smiled as she thought of Black Hand’s reaction when Lucien kicked his ass.

"Now we have to think of a way to lure Ivan into an ambush. Killing only him and the adventurers most loyal to him is ideal."

Black Hand agreed with Scarlett’s words. After all, everyone understood that the city needs both adventurers and mercenaries as they were the real strength of Portgreen as in addition to the common non-combatant people, the warriors who did not join them were the few who followed Lord Larousse and others less influential Lords.

While Black Hand was thinking of a way to create an ambush for Ivan, Angela suggested something as she had planned with Scarlett.

"Why don’t you fake an escape? I bet Ivan will have to gather a group quickly, so he will only bring the adventurers that are close to him."

Black Hand quickly agreed. "Yes. That is a great idea. We can start moving troops discreetly, and then we leave the hidden base and run to a predetermined location. So when Ivan comes as fast as he can, he won’t be able to bring a large group."

But then Black Hand made a worried expression. "Still, Ivan is much more powerful than before, and his main group is also absurdly strong..."

Scarlett laughed. "You won’t know what really strong people are until you see the group I told you about. Don’t worry about individual strength. We just have to be quick so that Ivan can’t gather the whole Guild but only some small groups."

Black Hand had no reason to doubt Scarlett. After all, even if he couldn’t be the main leader, he could always be the second in command following her. And that would be much better than sharing Portgrteen’s leadership with the Guild.

"So what are we waiting for? Let’s start preparing the ambush right now." Black Hand drank all the wine from his mug in a single gulp as he stood up excitedly.
