Chapter 162 - Warmly

Amelia blushed a little, walked over to Lucien, and accepted his hug. "Brother…"

She wrapped her delicate arm around his waist in a little hesitant way, because they don"t usually have such physical contact.

But to her surprise, Lucien didn"t act as cold as before, but embraced her tightly and pulled her into his arms, bringing their bodies more closely together than ever.

Amelia felt warm in Lucien"s embrace. This familiar and comfortable feeling made her calm. That is the kind of interaction she always wanted to have with her family and not the broken relations.h.i.+p they had before.

She rested her head on Lucien"s chest, and he spoke in a loving tone near her ear. "I missed you."

Amelia couldn"t even imagine what happened to Lucien to turn her cold brother into this kind and affectionate person, but she liked it.

She loved it so much that she tightened her arms around his waist, trying to bring their bodies even closer and enjoy more of this good and warm feeling.

"I missed you a lot too, brother."

Then they enjoyed each other"s warmth for a little more than a minute in silence until Lucien began to talk. "How are you handling this... situation?"

But he didn"t stop hugging her, and Amelia was also pleased to continue embracing. "We are doing well. It"s difficult to deal with Envy sometimes, but in general, we get along very well."

"Um... I see. Well, now that we"ve met, we can help each other, as well." Lucien responded.

They kept hugging, and a few seconds later, Amelia asked in a curious tone. "Why do you have horns? Is it because of L.u.s.t?"

Lucien and L.u.s.t were also unsure about that, so they could only speculate. "I think I"m half demon..."

"Is that because of our father?" She asked.

"No. I think it has to do with my mom."

Amelia knew about Lucien"s depression because of his dead mother, so she didn"t want to talk about that too much because she feared he would turn back the cold brother he used to be. "I"m sorry..."

Lucien smiled and spoke expectantly. "She is alive. Soon we will all be together again."

Amelia was confused, and Lucien explained that their father had lied about his mother being dead because he would not fight to rescue her.

"He"s the worst!" Amelia exclaimed in an annoyed tone.

Lucien rubbed his face on her hair. "We should not care about him."

"Mm..." Amelia felt so comfortable in Lucien"s arms that she didn"t even realize that what they were doing didn"t seem like a siblings" hug.

Then she started explaining why she came to meet him. Of course, without ending their hug. "I heard you had problems with my soldiers in that forest."

Lucien already knew the story about the Light Envoy, so he understood that Amelia was manipulating the Light Empire. "Why are you with those s.h.i.+tty racist people? They are no different than the Silver Legion from our homeworld."

Amelia would not hide anything from Lucien or her sisters because they were a team just like the great demons. "They are just my p.a.w.ns."

"After we conquer this world completely, Envy will teach me a spell to absorb souls and turn the Kings, leaders, and other strong people I conquer into demonic energy for us."

Lucien would not be hypocritical enough to say that he was sorry for anyone other than his family. Although he is learning new things about friends.h.i.+p with Ron and Alden, he still doesn"t give a d.a.m.n about the world.

If killing thousands of unknown people and destroying worlds was the fastest way to rescue his mother and reunite his family, he would certainly do that without feeling any regret.

But fight and kill is not the easiest and fastest way for Lucien, not only because of L.u.s.t"s abilities but also because of his nature.

Lucien slowly started to stroke Amelia"s back. "You don"t have to get your hands dirty with these people"s blood. There is another way for us to be stronger together without having to kill and absorb this world"s leaders and other strong people"

Amelia was so immersed in that warm and comfortable feeling that she didn"t even remember Envy"s warnings. "What way?"

Lucien brought his lips close to Amelia"s ear. "The path of love... and pleasure."

*Sniff* *Sniff*

Amelia was enjoying Lucien"s wonderful scent. She smiled when she heard him talk about love…

But then the word "pleasure" snapped her out of her trance.

She jumped five meters backward while looking very shocked and also flushed. "Do you want to do weird things to me?!"

Lucien smiled because he already expected such a reaction. "It"s not weird. Not really, I guess."

Amelia pointed the finger at Lucien as she s.h.i.+vered and stammered. "W-we are s-siblings! There is n-no such possibility."

"And why does that prevent us from becoming strong together? We are already a family, so it wouldn"t change much." He responded.

Amelia shook her head as if trying to deny that possibility to herself. "No!! That is wrong!!! We cannot cross that line."

Then she looked at L.u.s.t, who was still on top of the carriage. "Was it her? Is she influencing you to have these weird ideas?"

Lucien stopped smiling for the first time since he started talking to Amelia. "She"s my wife. We don"t influence each other to do anything we don"t want to do."

Amelia noticed Lucien"s change in att.i.tude when she talked about L.u.s.t. That reminded her of how was strange her relations.h.i.+p with Lucien when Sophia was around him.

That brought out those intense and chaotic feelings that Amelia didn"t know how to control.

She was very upset. "Wife?! Her name is L.U.S.T! She is nothing but a bit-"

As Amelia spoke of L.u.s.t, she saw Lucien"s expression go from neutral to cold and distant. She was very afraid of never seeing that kind and affectionate Lucien again and stopped before she said something that she would regret later.

"Brother, she is a demon. I appreciate Envy"s help too, but they are diabolical beings from another world, and they just want to use us just like our father is using them and us."

Lucien did not answer Amelia but looked at L.u.s.t. L.u.s.t understood his intention and materialized at his side.

He smiled at her. "L.u.s.t, are you a diabolical being from another world who wants to use me?"

L.u.s.t smiled too. "I"m certainly from another world. Well, about using you... I think so. I want to use you as my only man forever while I will always belong only to you."

Lucien held L.u.s.t"s head and kissed her pa.s.sionately. He licked and sucked her lips, showing it all to Amelia.

Amelia felt as if thousands of blades had pierced her heart. Lucien acted so lovingly with her a minute ago, but that was still quite different from the way he acts with L.u.s.t.

Their kiss was so incredible that it made them look completely crazy about each other. Amelia wondered if any of Lucien"s feelings for her could be ten percent of those feelings they were showing with just a kiss.

Lucien ended the kiss and hugged L.u.s.t"s waist. L.u.s.t blushed a little because she hadn"t expected Lucien"s intense att.i.tude. She loves it when he surprises her by acting so dominant.

Then he looked at Amelia. "As I said before, she is my wife. We work together for the good of our family. No manipulations, no secrets."

Amelia was even more furious but also confused. All she knew about L.u.s.t was what Envy had said, but now things didn"t seem like what she thought.

"Envy, what is going on?!?!" She sent a mental message to Envy.

Envy had the same doubts as Amelia. She didn"t understand how L.u.s.t continued to maintain her physical form with Lucien, and her demonic energy did not seem to decrease.

Also, L.u.s.t"s interaction with Lucien was something Envy had never seen before. None of the great demons ever had a romantic interest because they were always very focused on fighting for their people, but now L.u.s.t really looked like a loving wife.

Envy had no choice but to materialize her body next to Amelia despite not being able to maintain her physical form for long.

As L.u.s.t and Lucien were showing their demonic characteristics, Envy did not alter her body either.

In a purple cloud, to imitate L.u.s.t"s characteristics, Envy appeared next to Amelia.

She is 1.72 m tall with a fantastic s.e.xy body. Fair skin, long black hair, and green eyes, in addition to demon race characteristics, like her pointed ears, horns, and wings.

Her horns are red, have curves at different angles, and are slightly turned upwards with about 19 centimeters long. Her wings are bat-like, very similar to L.u.s.t"s but red instead of purple.

She was wearing a simple outfit that revealed much of her curves but not because she wanted to, but because she didn"t want to waste demonic energy.

Envy gazed at Lucien with an expectant expression. "How? What did you do?"

Before Lucien said anything, L.u.s.t sent him a mental message. "Envy is treacherous and manipulative, but her copy ability can be very useful for us, including being able to give Oya a demi-human form."

Lucien understood that Envy had a lot of doubts; after all, he and L.u.s.t also didn"t understand the mysteries of his body.

He shrugged. "How what?"

Envy smiled. "How are you and L.u.s.t so strong? You reached the Mortal Realm even though you were so useless a while ago. Also, you and L.u.s.t have ten times more demonic energy than us."

Lucien tightened his embrace around L.u.s.t"s waist, bringing her body closer to him as he replied to Envy. "Don"t you know?"

She clicked her tongue while making a mocking expression. "F.u.c.k.i.n.g? How many wh.o.r.es did you have to f.u.c.k to get that much demonic energy? 1000? 2000?"

Lucien knew that Envy was trying to provoke him, so he ignored her mocking att.i.tude. "You know it doesn"t work like that."

Envy made a confused expression. "What? Are you talking about increasing pleasure with positive feelings like love? That"s what you"re talking about, right? It never worked before because L.u.s.t"s hosts were h.o.r.n.y idiots who died shortly after getting some power by f.u.c.k.i.n.g some wh.o.r.es."

He also made a mocking expression at Envy. "What do I have to do with others? L.u.s.t is my wife now, and I don"t have to explain to you what we do and how we do that."

Envy knew that it would not be easy to take advantage of Lucien with L.u.s.t by his side, but she could use Amelia for that.

"We need to know how they do it. We need to know and understand everything! If their method is really more effective than ours, then..." Envy started to communicate with Amelia.

Amelia understood and quickly denied the possibility. "No!! You said that L.u.s.t"s abilities are limited and that our plan is very effective. I will not do weird things with my brother."

"Then I will have to do it. Think about it, if they have limited ability and are still so powerful, imagine how much stronger we can get. We just have to discover their secrets." Envy replied.

Amelia was very confused, but the idea of ​​Envy doing anything to Lucien made her burn with anger. "Don"t touch him!!!"

Envy smiled. "So you just have to do this. You don"t have to f.u.c.k him right now, but we have to understand the limits of their strength, at least."

Amelia blushed when Envy talked about her f.u.c.k.i.n.g her brother, so she quickly focused on something else to forget about that. "What do you want me to do to discover his strength?"

"By sparring him. Tell them that they are weak and are using tricks to look stronger, but they are still inferior to us, so force him to face you with everything they have." Envy explained.

Amelia didn"t want to manipulate or hurt her brother, but if she wanted him to follow her, she would have to show her strength.

Even though Lucien looked strong for knocking Dawn out so quickly, he couldn"t compare to her, who is in the seventh layer of the Mortal Realm, could he?

Two white swords appear in Amelia"s hands in a flash of white and bluish light, then she pointed the swords at Lucien.

"Show me the power you claim to have gained with your weird methods."

Lucien smiled at Amelia as he continued to hug L.u.s.t with one arm. In his other hand, his red katana appeared in a cloud of purple dust.

Then he stabbed the katana in the ground. "As you want, dear sister."
