Chapter 343 - Mysterious Ancestor

While Lucien has an incredible love session with L.u.s.t, Envy, and Elsie in the purple world, his other wives continue to learn more about the great forest of Alliance with Laure to know where to look for the best offerings for the ceremony.

All the girls are very excited, especially Anne, but Amelia has an upset expression on her face. The other girls know why, but Laure is worried that she"s upsetting Queen Eve"s and her son-in-law"s sister.

"Is something wrong, my Lady?" Laure asks Amelia in a respectful tone. She knows that Amelia is still a little upset by the misunderstanding at the beginning of the night, and that is why Laure is really sorry.

Amelia was not happy when Laure thought Lucien was lying, but she has already forgotten that and thinks well of mama fox now.

"They are... Stupid Envy! Stupid brother!!" Amelia comments while she can even feel Envy"s and Lucien"s happiness through their connection.

Laure is confused, and Anne shakes her head at her, subtly indicating that she shouldn"t ask any more further.

"Ahem..." Laure makes a sound to get attention and smiles at the girls. "Well, I already explained the most important points. Yet, as you will do the same ceremony and travel together, Anne and Elsie can guide you through the forest without any problems. Still, remember to take the flower, feather, and tree alone with your own effort."

"Mm." The girls nod.

But then Laure looks at little Ko. "Well, you can have help when catching a bird if it is dangerous sd you are still very young."

Little Ko understands that Laure is concerned about her safety, but she no longer sees herself as a child but as one of Lucien"s companions. That"s why she shows her fangs with a confident smile.

Laure finds Ko"s confident att.i.tude very cute, but while Oya smiles proudly, Ca.s.sidy explains. "Little Ko is already in the Mortal Realm, yet she has strength superior to the first layer due to Lucien"s pats."

Anne vaguely explained to her about the four chaos realms, and although Laure doesn"t understand much about it, she can a.s.sume Ko"s strength by comparing her to Dawn, who is still in the first layer of the Mortal Realm and has very little demonic energy from Lucien inside her body.

So, to avoid the mood getting embarra.s.sing, she looks around. "Where"s Elsie?"

"She"s with Lucien," Anne responds with a slight flush on her face, which Laure doesn"t notice.

"Oh, they"re talki-" She starts to speak but stops when she notices Anne getting even more flushed and shaking her head at her.

Laure is surprised that they are doing it right now, but not that it is happening. When she asked Lucien about his interaction with Anne, he said that nothing could separate "them" from him; that is, he already included Elsie as his wife too, and both she and Anne seemed very happy about that.

"Elsie is already an a.d.u.l.t woman who can choose her destiny. And I can"t say that she"s making the wrong choice, but..." Laure comments while thinking about her sister.

In fact, Elsie is a year older than Anne because when Laure told her mother that she was not going to become the clan"s new matriarch, Luise looked for a man just to have a child and to start preparing them for when she could no longer lead the clan.

Luise always tried her best as leader and protector of the clan. She wanted to have several children in case some of them wanted to have normal lives like Laure; there would still be a high chance of someone being interested in leading the clan as she did.

But after realizing how bad it was to have s.e.x with someone she doesn"t love, she was unable to have other children. Still, Elsie always showed interest in protecting the clan, which made Luise really satisfied.

Now, Laure is worried that Luise will be alone after Elsie leaves with Lucien, mainly because Luise loves her daughter and would never stop her from following the path she wants.

Anne really understands her mother and smiles at her. "Don"t worry about it. I can"t say for sure, but I think Aunt Luise would be happy to follow Eve and Lucien, knowing that the clan is in good hands."

"Good hands?" Laure is confused.

Anne looks at Ghalenna and Ghilanna at the back of the room. The m.a.t.u.r.e elf nods respectfully to Laure.

The Alliance will have no problems as long as Ghalenna leads it according to Eve"s standards, but will she stay behind while Luise goes with Eve and Lucien? Can any single mother not follow their son-in-law when he is Lucien?

Thinking too much about the future will not change anything now, and as Laure"s first attempt to not let the mood get strange has completely failed, she tries again.

"Well, let"s keep talking and drink more apple wine while we wait for them." She smiles at the girls.

The girls quickly agree because they all really liked the apple wine made by Anne"s parents. Even Kara drank a lot of it while only Ko chose to drink apple juice instead.

The group just had time to talk for a few minutes before Lucien and Elsie entered Laure"s house. In fact, the love session lasted more than an hour, but the purple world"s temporal dilatation made their time longer there.

The radiant smile on Elsie"s face and the fact that she has Lucien"s scent all over her body even after taking a bath makes it clear what they did for everyone.

Anne runs over to Elsie and hugs her tight. "You were already my sister in heart, but now we also share this connection."

Elsie cannot be happier as she smiles at having a cousin, or rather, sister as good as Anne. Most women would not want to share their man with other people, but Anne is really happy that Elsie also becomes Lucien"s wife as she knows that he will take good care of them both.

Laure is still a little concerned about Luise"s future. Still, she can"t help but be happy for the girls. [This will certainly be the most animated wedding ceremony ever.]

"Sorry for delaying your plans." Elsie talks to Lucien"s wives.

Angela approaches her and gently holds her hand. "I don"t worry about that; now you"re one of us. Well, we already want to go look for the offerings. Are you coming with us?"

"Of course!" Elsie speaks in a lively tone. Lucien"s wives have always been nice to her, but now they are her sisters, and that is incredible because she admits them all.

Lucien smiles at the girls. "I will not disturb you, but it is still better to we stay within a five-mile radius so that if something happens, I can reach you fast."

"So overprotective..." Several of the girls speak at the same time.

He smiles as Amelia hugs him tightly. "I will be with them. Also, this stupid Envy can feel it if there is any danger around."

Envy doesn"t feel like arguing with Amelia now because her soul feels incredibly good after being f.u.c.k.e.d by Lucien.

Mia approaches Lucien and hugs him too. "Oh, Laure mentioned a good spot to look for rare flowers, and that place is also near the Lake of Tears."

Lucien kisses her lips. "Nice; I really want to go there and find the best precious stones for my beautiful ladies."

The girls" eyes sparkle with antic.i.p.ation as they are sure that Lucien will always give them all the best.

They go to him one by one to give a quick goodbye kiss even though they will not be really away and just in different groups, where Lucien"s group will be only him and L.u.s.t.

Then the group of girls leaves Laure"s house and heads towards the south, specifically to the area known as the Sorrow Forest because of some strange sounds that occasionally come from the Lake of Tears.

But although the girls are very eager for the ceremony, they do not run but walk through the streets of the main fox-village, enjoying Its charm and talking about women"s matters. Well, their favorite subject is Lucien and their future plans, mainly about the possibility that they are already pregnant.

Also, Anne sends Lucien a mental message. "Don"t seduce my mother, please."

"I would never do that." Lucien quickly responds. He really likes Anne"s parents and doesn"t want to cause any problems for them.

Anne knows that and trusts Lucien, but she still explains her request. "I know it, but that smell of yours is devilishly addictive. If you get too close to my mother, her love for my father will be weakened until it is gone."

"I"ll be careful." Lucien responds while understanding Anne"s concern. He really has to be careful with his natural charm when he definitely doesn"t want to seduce anyone.

And as soon as all the girls leave Laure"s house, she looks at him with a thoughtful expression after looking at the door to her bedroom with an apprehensive expression.

Then she speaks in a low tone to Lucien. "Come with me; I have to tell you something important."

Lucien is obviously surprised by Laure"s change in att.i.tude. Still, he doesn"t think it is anything about him but Anne.

Laure walks down the corridor and checks if Clovis is really asleep before heading to a small room that appears to be a pantry.

Upon entering the room, she quickly closes the door, and Lucien realizes that it is really a pantry. He can"t help but be uncomfortable staying in such a small room, mainly because of his high height and wings.

Still, Lucien imagines that this is even more uncomfortable for Laure because she loves her husband, and it is difficult to deal with his charm, especially his natural scent at a short distance.

Yet, she seems to have something important to say, and Lucien just remains silent, waiting for her to speak.

Lucien gets more and more curious while Laure doesn"t say anything and just wiggles on a food shelf. She moves several pots until she reveals an area of the wall where there is a symbol that he has never seen.

He can"t help remembering when Madelyn took them to the L group"s headquarters through a pantry too, but in this case, there is no secret pa.s.sage in Laure"s pantry but something hidden inside the wall by magic: a type of magic safe.

From inside the small area that she opens inside the wall, she takes out a bracelet. L.u.s.t quickly tells Lucien that it is a storage treasure incredibly powerful, probably having hundreds of miles of inner s.p.a.ce.

Laure holds the bracelet in both hands while looks at Lucien with a concerned expression. "This belonged to an ancestor of mine. This treasure has been in my family for hundreds of years."

She takes a book off the bracelet and gives it to Lucien. In the book, there is nothing written on the cover, which is just brown.

Then she explains. "I never showed it to Anne because there are strange and mysterious things in this book. I was only going to show it to her when I was older, but after seeing her second tail, I was really worried."

"This..." Lucien makes a curious expression as he looks at the book.

"This is the Two Tails Queen"s diary," Laure responds.
