Chapter 911 Leaving A Precious Gift Behind



"You want to go to Elysium?" Lux asked.

Ampelos nodded. "Yes."

"Why?"

"Let's just say that it's time to go to greener pastures, if you know what I mean."

The Satyr flashed Lux a dashing smile, the sight of which gave the Half-Elf an urge to beat the crap out of him.

When the Satyr said that it wanted to go to greener pastures, it meant that it wanted to start its notoriety in Elysium, and this was something that Lux couldn't possibly agree to.

He already knew how lustful these creatures were and the danger they could pose to the Elysians if they were given the opportunity to leave the Abyss.

"I know what you are thinking," Ampelos said. "Me and my men are now reformed. We will not do anything indecent when we get to Elysium, I promise."

"Hahaha, do you think I was born yesterday?" Lux sneered. "You might behave for a day or two, maybe even a week, before your carnal urges go out of control. I can't possibly bring you back with me knowing how dangerous you guys are."

Ampelos' smile stiffened after hearing Lux's reply. Clearly, the Half-Elf didn't trust them enough to let them go to Elysium with him.

"You reject our request to come with you to Elysium, but you didn't reject the Succubi when they asked to go with you?" Ampelos snorted. "Double standards much?"

"The Succubi are different," Lux replied. "Don't you know that thicc thighs save lives?"

"Bullsh*t!" Ampelos scoffed. "Both of us know that isn't the real reason why you agreed to bring them with you."

Lux shrugged because he really didn't want to argue with the Satyrs on this matter.

Queen Rhiannon and him were now practically allies after everything they had gone through. Also, he didn't think that bringing the Succubi to Elysium would pose any serious problems.

The Satyrs, however, were a different threat. These walking lechers needed to be neutered before the Half-Elf would agree to bring them back with him.

While Ampelos was thinking of ways to convince Lux to bring him and his subordinates to Elysium, the land started to shake, which made them look in the direction of the portal that led to the 14th Layer.

Antero had just returned to the 13th Layer, alongside Queen Rhiannon, and the two were making their way towards the Passion Palace, where everyone gathered.

Lux and his people should have left a few hours ago, but since he made a promise to the Succubus Queen that he would wait for her, he put their plan on hold until her arrival.

A few minutes later, the peerless beauty landed beside Lux and dragged him to the side to have a private talk.

"It's good that you kept your promise," Queen Rhiannon said. "I thought you would already be gone by the time I arrived."

Lux didn't reply to her right away and looked up at the beautiful queen who was looking back at him with a smile.

"Do you want to come to Elysium with me?" Lux asked.

Queen Rhiannon didn't expect the Half-Elf to invite her to go to Elysium, but the way he was looking at her made her realize that he wasn't joking, which warmed her heart.

"I would love to go... but I can't," Queen Rhiannon replied. "There are still many things I need to do here in the Abyss, and I can't possibly leave those who have decided to stay behind."

Lux nodded because he had already expected that her answer would be like that. It was just his wishful thinking that the Succubus Queen would agree to his invitation and leave everything behind.

Queen Rhiannon saw the disappointment in Lux's eyes, but she pretended not to see it.

Instead, she showed him a pearl necklace, which made the Half-Elf's eye widen in shock.

Although it was faint, Lux could feel a strand of divinity within the white pearl that hung on the golden chain in front of him.

"This artifact is called Fortuna's Tears," Queen Rhiannon explained. "Its ability is to prevent its wearer from getting bad luck. However, if the one who wears it is Misfortune's Beloved, its ability would only prevent her from spreading misfortune to other people.

"The downside is that her bad luck will still remain active, but it will only affect her. If you wish to take that girl, Aurora, with you to the Surface World, this is the thing that you need the most."

Without even waiting for Lux's reply, Queen Rhiannon handed the necklace to him, making the Half-Elf look at her gratefully.

"Thank you very much," Lux replied. "This is exactly the thing I need."

"Don't mention it." Queen Rhiannon smiled.

Lux lowered his head as he pondered something.

After half a minute, he took out a small wooden box and handed it to the peerless beauty who had given him a priceless treasure.

"Open this after we leave," Lux stated. "Whether you use it or not is up to you."

Queen Rhiannon took the box from Lux's hand and held it in the palm of her hand.

The two then stared at each other for a long time, their eyes swirling with emotions that they couldn't tell each other.

Suddenly, this intimate moment was broken by someone clearing their throat, which made Lux and Queen Rhiannon glare at the person that disturbed them.

"Can we not come to a compromise?" Ampelos asked. "No offense, but I've been here in the Abyss since I was born. I want to see how much bigger the world is out there, and Elysium seems to be a good place to spread my wings—if you know what I mean."

"Spread your wings, or spread your d*ck?" Queen Rhiannon sneered.

"Look, my subordinates and I are willing to sign a Soul Contract if that's what it would take for us to go to Elysium," Ampelos said with determination. "As long as it doesn't touch our bottom line, like being neutered, we are willing to abide by its terms."

Lux frowned before glancing at the beauty beside him.

"What do you think?" Lux asked.

"Well, it's a Soul Contract, so you don't have to worry about them going back on their word," Queen Rhiannons shrugged. "Who knows, they might even help you in the future. Although they are a rowdy bunch, they are excellent cannon fodd— I mean, excellent vanguards during wars."

Ampelos smiled and pretended that he didn't hear Queen Rhiannon's snarky remark.

"Okay, how about this," Lux stated. "You guys are not allowed to force any women to do the deed with you using intimidation, violence, spells, or anything that will remove their free will. If you can woo them properly using the right method, then I won't bat an eye."

The Half-Elf then glanced at Queen Rhiannon and asked her a question.

"Can you prevent them from siring any children while they are in Elysium?" Lux asked. "I don't think the Elysians are ready to see an influx in the Satyr population in the upcoming years."

Queen Rhiannon giggled and nodded her head. "Sure. I can do that. I will ensure that they can't get anyone pregnant for the next hundred years."

"W-Wait! Calm down. How about you lower it a bit to 10 years?" Ampelos asked anxiously.

"50 years." Queen Rhiannon smirked.

"30!" Ampelos bargained.

"50."

"40!"

"50."

"...Fine, 50 years."

One of the Satyrs who was listening stepped up and asked a question.

"I understand that we cannot be rough with women, but how about men?" the Satyr asked.

The corner of Lux's lips twitched after hearing the Satyr's inquiry. To his surprise, almost all the Satyrs were looking at him with a determined look on their faces as if the answer to this question was a matter of life and death.

Just as Lux was about to say 'no,' an idea suddenly popped inside his head, which made him smile evilly.

"You are not allowed to be rough with men... but I will allow it if that person is a member of the Divine Army of Light or Twilight Rain," Lux replied. "As long as those people are affiliated with those factions, you can be rough with them as much as you want. Anything goes! But remember, only the men, okay? You still need to treat the women with respect."

"""Whoa!"""

With the exception of Ampelos, all the Satyrs cheered after they were given permission to screw the members of the Divine Army of Light as well as Twilight Rain.

"Hahaha! Divine Army of Light? They sound strong. Do they have Magical Knights?"

"Of course they do," Lux replied with a smile. "They have thousands of them."

"Nice!" the Satyr gave Lux a thumbs up. "You're not going back on your word, right? We can *ahem* them as much as we want, right?"

"Knock yourself out!" Lux gave them a thumbs up in return.

The Satyr then shook hands with Lux, and gave him the "thanks bro, you are a real man of culture" look.

Lux simply nodded his head and gave his blessings to the Satyrs to make the lives of the Divine Army of Light a living hell.

Since they were already at each other's throats, he would not bat an eye if the Satyrs screwed them thrice over.

After agreeing to the details of the contract, all Satyrs were then invited to join Lux's guild.

Antero then swallowed the Succubi and the Satyrs inside its body to prevent the humans and Dragon Borns, who were waiting on the other side, to attack them.

When everything was ready, Lux bid Queen Rhiannon his final goodbye, and the latter just nodded her head and waved at him.

Gaap then took out a white marble and activated it. In the blink of an eye, a black hole appeared above their heads, sucking up everyone in its surroundings.

A long sigh escaped the Demigod's lips the moment the black hole disappeared.

She then opened the small wooden box in her hand to see what Lux's farewell gift to her was.

Sitting at the center of the box was a single white marble that would allow Queen Rhiannon to go to Elysium.

"Become strong, Lux," Queen Rhiannon said before closing the wooden box in her hand. "I have high hopes for you. Also, please save my daughter, Aurora. I wasn't a good mother to her, and I hope that she can feel what a family is like when she's by your side."

The peerless beauty then affectionately caressed her lower abdomen as she thought of the handsome Half-Elf who had returned to his own world, not knowing that he had left her another precious gift aside from the White Marble in her possession.
