Chapter 101 Chapter 23: His Dream Of Defeat... Her Promise Of Victory
***
Lucifer was trapped in the darkness, his voice silent and touch muted... dark scenes flashed before his eyes enough to break his will to fight, and the sight of Gwendolyn being killed by the aberration's sharp claws caused his heart to shatter.
He thought he had lost the battle, the images and scenes around him like those of when he died in the past... slamming into the tree, he could only think about Gwendolyn... but now there was more inside his heart... he wanted to make Lephalia smile and to make up for him ruining Irina's life by stealing her from the former hero.
He was not a true villain at heart—that was only the role put on his shoulders, a role he must play unless he wanted to lose the women he began to care for... even Estella was growing in his heart; the moment she slept with him he didn't say anything, and she cast a curse on herself... on that would make males find her revolting as long as she was related to Lucifer...
That woman... so extreme; what if I suddenly die and the curse doesn't count as our relationship ending? Lucifer thought inwardly as he saw Gwen crying...
Ah... I am awake...?
Lucifer's crimson eyes fluttered open, seeing Gwendolyn's beautiful sleeping face as she snored gently, holding him tightly as he stroked her cheek, causing her to wake up, "Lucifer~ Darling~ Are you okay?" Gwen asked lovingly as Lucifer smiled faintly, nodding gently, "Yes... What happened?"
He tried to get up, but the intense pain in his chest was too strong, almost causing him to vomit from the strange nausea he felt—the weakness in his arms, as they flopped to the side, made him feel pathetic.
Gwendolyn sat up, wearing her underwear as she stretched adorably, "You've been asleep for a week... we healed your wounds and recovered most of the damage you suffered, thanks to the help of Nora's slime... she says she wants to become your second wife~" Gwen teased him, pouting her lips adorably, causing Lucifer to sigh, "Slime Woman... Nora? Is she related to that diva..."
Lucifer called out mentally, causing Gwendolyn to giggle cutely as Nora vibrated happily, "Puruuu (Darling~ Play with me~~)."
"No... it is the purified version of her... and she became attached to you the moment you collapsed, but she had helped so much, the town water is now the most pure and healthy in the kingdom—she also helped the villagers build a completely functional sewage and toilet system... nothing like a diva of blight."
Gwendolyn explained gently, helping Lucifer sit up as he smiled faintly, kissing her neck, "You all did well... how are the people?" Lucifer asked gently as Gwendolyn? nodded, "Good... Marina has taken command as the strongest adventurer... "
"Irina, Fel and Layna are training the survivors to become adventurers, and Estella and Lephalia are helping the children learn magic... Serena said you were amazing... everyone praises you." Gwendolyn? spoke softly, stroking Lucifer's cheek lovingly as he chuckled faintly, "It is nothing... So many died..."
Gwendolyn? tilted her head before leaning forward as she presented her neck to Lucifer, her dress slipping down to her waist, as her huge elastic breasts flopped against Lucifer's chest, and she held his shoulders, "bite me, drink until you feel better."
Lucifer hesitated as he leaned forward, kissing Gwen's snow-white neck gently, "Are you sure...? I drank Nora's slime blood to survive..." Gwen giggled, nodding gently, "I am your wife; it is my duty and pleasure~ so please eat me up, darling." Gwendolyn teased him playfully, kissing Lucifer's lips gently before pulling away—she released a sensual moan as he bit down, piercing her snow-white skin, causing Gwendolyn? to moan faintly as his fangs sank deeper, drawing the sweet blood into his mouth, causing Lucifer to gulp it down hungrily!
Gwendolyn? moaned faintly, enjoying the sensation as her hand rubbed his member, which became rock solid as she giggled, "Darling ~ you are so naughty... Shall I help you?"
But to her shock, Lucifer was too engrossed in drinking her blood, as if possessed, his hands wrapped around her neck as his lips sucked harder.
Gwendolyn moaned erotically, rubbing Lucifer's member faster as her breathing became heavy, "Darling ~~ Drink more~~ I am so happy you survived... I love you so much!" Gwendolyn? moaned passionately, her breath panting as her legs trembled, and she held onto his body for support, feeling the power in his arms and body growing rapidly as the feeling of her blood being guzzled down made her become aroused.
Gwendolyn? whimpered faintly, kissing Lucifer's forehead gently as her juices gushed down her thighs, creating a damp patch as her moans became louder—her hand was covered in her sticky fluids as she climaxed from his bite.
His face pulled away with several strands of saliva and blood, forming bridges from her neck and his lips—he took a deep breath before licking the wound gently, sealing it shut as Gwendolyn? collapsed, her body trembling intensely as Lucifer smirked faintly, "You enjoyed yourself... My dear."
Gwendolyn blushed shyly, covering her face with her sticky hand, "Darling ~ It wasn't me... I just couldn't help... it." Lucifer chuckled faintly, using his tongue to clean Gwen's hand before kissing her lips gently, "It was my bites ability... my apologies... you should be immune to it normally... but the way you came so softly was really cute."
Gwendolyn pouted her lips, kissing his cheek gently, "I am not complaining; I enjoy being bitten by you, Darling... Now, how do you feel?" Gwen asked lovingly as Lucifer smiled faintly, "Much better... thank you, Gwen..."
Lucifer kissed her neck gently, causing Gwendolyn? to moan erotically as he teased the sensitive area where he bit her earlier.
Gwendolyn whimpered erotically, her legs trembling faintly as Lucifer smirked, "My dear... shall I return the favour?" Gwendolyn blushed shyly, kissing his lips gently as she shook her head, "No... you need to recover... besides~ Irina and the others will bring food soon... shall we get dressed?" Gwendolyn whispered gently as Lucifer nodded, kissing her lips lovingly, "Thank you..."
The pair then began to cuddle as she helped him dress, as his muscles and bones were still damaged from the Blight and his reckless use of levelling up and the crimson eclipse powers.
Suddenly, Lucifer noticed a change in his attributes, causing him to frown slightly... n(-OVELB1n
?Status Ailment: Corruption Damage?
Due to being poisoned by Blight, your body is weakened and vulnerable to corruption, allowing your vitality to repair the damage slowly, but it will take time to recover naturally.
Due to your high vitality, you will regenerate 50% quicker than normal.
Lucifer grimaced, cursing inwardly—damn bitch...
"Puru?" (Hehe~ demean me more, baby.") Nora chimed inwardly as Lucifer ignored her, thinking about his situation... damn bitch poisoned him!
"Puru Pururu~" (Don't worry~ I only used a tiny drop of blight poison... if you make me feel good, I can suck it right out~ fufu.)
Perverted slime... stay away from my cock!
Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and the scent of cooked food filled the large room, with a huge table in the centre that seemed to have been added while he was sleeping, as Irina, Layna, Estella and Lephalia entered all carrying pots and pans of searing hot food.
"Ah... he's awake..."
"Master!"
"Honey!"
"Darling!"
Irina, Layna, Estella and Lephalia exclaimed happily, rushing over after putting the food down on the table while each other then hugged him tightly—even the strange countess looked at him with concerned eyes as she held him the tightest and nuzzled his neck, saying I am glad, I am so glad... several times, causing Lucifer to chuckled faintly.
"Shall we eat first? I am a little hungry, haha."
When they sat around the table, Lucifer was in the head seat, with Lephalia curled on his lap and Gwen to his left, while Irina and Layna fought for the right seat... The smart Estella chose the seat facing him, her chin resting on her palms as she looked at Lucifer with dazzling eyes filled with relief and joy.
Since they decided to all support Gwendolyn? and all become his women in earnest. Estella was the one with the biggest change and growth—she began to dress more conservatively and seemed to be more conscious of her actions.
"Lucifer, would you like some salted butter for your jacket potatoes?" Her soft, husky voice sounded as she gently mixed the butter and heated it with her magic so they were soft and sank into the potatoes quickly...
How does she know how I like them? Has she been watching me closely all this time?
Not only did Estella butter them, but she chose his favourite pieces of fish and added them to his bowl—her eyes were so gentle and soft that they made his heart skip a beat, and for the first time, Lucifer felt actually seduced by Estella on an emotional level...
"Thank you... I..." Estella just smiled, a soft and soothing smile, nothing like the usual flirty smile... like a homely wife, and it caught him off guard.
"What? Have you been charmed by that witch?" Irina asked with a smirk, normally expecting him to deny it.
"Yeah... I think I have." Lucifer replied honestly, shocking Irina, Layna and Gwendolyn? while Estella blushed shyly, looking down at the table.
"Hmm... honey... I am jealous... you never compliment me... ah~" Gwendolyn? complained cutely, kissing Lucifer's cheeks gently while Irina grumbled, "As expected... Estella is such a sly woman..."
Layna remained silent, eating her food elegantly, and Lephalia was gorging herself with fish... she ate like a beast, but Lucifer found it adorable.
"Estella is trying her best... give her a chance, Irina..." Gwendolyn? reprimanded gently as Irina pouted her lips, "Fine... Fine..." Irina relented as Lucifer chuckled faintly, "Estella, thank you."
Estella blushed shyly, nodding gently as the atmosphere relaxed, and they ate together warmly...
After the meal, Lucifer went for a walk with Gwendolyn? and told her about his nightmares... the sight of seeing them all dying over and over... and his feeling of wanting to become stronger.
"Gwendolyn? ... I wanted a gentle and calm life with you, travelling and then having some children... But I worry that this world needs me to become stronger; what if there is a time I cannot fight... I don't want to lose you again." Lucifer explained gently.
Gwendolyn? smiled warmly, "Then get stronger... I will always be by your side... besides, I want to travel the world with you, too... maybe we can travel to get stronger and then, in the distant future, travel for pleasure... Whatever you want, I will accept."
Lucifer smiled faintly, hugging Gwendolyn tightly, "Thank you... let us train and explore this continent... then go further when we are stronger." Lucifer spoke gently as Gwendolyn? nodded, kissing his lips lovingly, "Whatever you wish... darling."
Lucifer stared into the golden eyes of Gwendolyn? deeply, holding her waist tightly as she giggled, "As long as we are together."
