Although he looks calm and relaxed, Lucien doesn't stop thinking about several things, like how to understand more about Aylin's power and the mission the Leviathan gave him.
Since arriving on that island, he's also been focusing his senses to the max to hear anything important. At the same time, Lust analyzes the power level of everyone within her magical sense radius.
As soon as Oya asks for more food, Lucien smiles at her. "The food has just arrived, my dear."
Kamala makes a confused expression, which turns surprised when the bathroom door is opened by Valencia, who enters, followed by several female servants carrying trays of food and drink.
"How…" She looks at Lucien with a curious expression. "There's a soundproof barrier around this bathroom, so even with this hole in the wall, most Immortal Realm people shouldn't be able to hear through it, let alone someone from the Earth Realm."
Lucien makes the teasing smile that is making Kamala more and more attracted. "I have good senses..."
As Lust gets Lucien another bottle of brandy, Valencia begins ordering the servants to repair the hole in the wall.
Then she approaches the edge of the pool and looks at Kalama and Lucien. "Well, our guests can't complain about the hospitality, so can we know a little more about them?"
"You can ask me directly what you wanna know." He speaks in a neutral tone.
Wasting no time, Valencia asks her first question. "Where are you from?"
"Bellor." He answers. "It's another world, far away from here."
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})"Oh." Kamala makes a thoughtful expression. "I've already read about Bellor in some geography books. Isn't it a weak medium world of humans?"
Lucien nods. "I think that's a perfect description."
Kamala can't help but smile proudly as if that had been a compliment. But she is also perplexed as to how someone like Lucien came from that world.
Valencia shakes her head while not understanding why Kamala is acting that way. She also has a hard time containing her love juices from running down her pussy just by looking at Lucien's body, but she can clearly see he's dangerous.
[Damn arrogant Nagas... does she really think a demon like him will respect her stupid title of princess??] She wonders.
"And what do you want here?" She doesn't waste time asking the second question.
"Do you mean here in this world?" He asks and quickly continues. "I came here looking for something."
"And here on this island?" she quickly asks. "What are you doing here?"
"Boring!!" Kamala exclaims, upset with Valencia. "You're not really nice to our guests asking these ridiculous questions."
Lucien smiles at Kamala but then answers Valencia's question. "I didn't exactly want to come here. I was thrown here by an annoying creature."
Both of them look surprised and curious, so Kamala asks. "You look very strong, so what kind of creature could throw you here against your will?"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})"A Leviathan." He answers and then takes a sip of brandy before offering it to Kamala.
"Bullshit!" Valencia exclaims.
But Kamala makes a thoughtful expression as she accepts Lucien's bottle of brandy and takes a sip while gazing at him. "No one in the Blue Star would believe in stories of such legendary creatures..."
"But?" He makes a curious expression as he gazes at her.
"But I know someone who claims to have seen the Leviathan over a thousand years ago... It's my mom." She explains.
While Oya is only interested in eating seafood, Lust and Helena are curious about how Kamala's mother could survive an encounter with the Leviathan.
Lucien is also interested in that, but the word mom coming out of Kamala's mouth arouses an incredibly powerful curiosity in him. She already has such an exotic and beautiful body that makes him sure that her mother is even more charming.
Lust obviously realizes that by knowing him better than anyone else. 'Really??? I would have turned my legs into a snake tail sooner if I knew it would make you so horny...'
'We should definitely try it later.' He responds.
So he keeps talking to Kamala. "Did your mother say anything interesting about the Leviathan?"
"Are you guys serious??" Valencia thinks that Lucien and Kamala are joking. "Are we really talking about a creature that doesn't exist?"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Kamala shakes her head with an expression of disappointment. "My mom said that meeting was really terrifying, and she never wanted to talk about it again."
"I see..." Lucien takes a sip of brandy and passes the bottle to Kamala again. "This creature is really stressful. I myself can't stand seeing her anymore..."
She looks at her with a thoughtful expression. "You talk like you've been together with this creature for a long time, but it doesn't really make sense to have a Leviathan here in this world."
"I mean... Legends say that Leviathans devoured other powerful creatures to become stronger, but this is a medium world, so the most powerful creatures here are Krakens from the early and mid Immortal Realm, which would not be useful for a Cosmic Realm creature." She explains.
"And they went extinct thousands of years ago…" Valencia rolls her eyes.
Lucien doesn't blame her for doubting his words as she doesn't know that he has no reason to lie to them as he is about to kill them.
"But that creature is real, and it's around this island now, watching us." He speaks in a neutral tone.
While Kamala is quite confused, not understanding why Lucien is saying those things, Valencia starts to laugh sarcastically. "Hahaha... let's pretend this story of yours is real, let's also ignore the fact that you fought it and survived; why would the creature throw you here? Is it some kind of game?"
He shrugs. "I can't say for sure what her goals are, but I think this is a bizarre experiment. The creature is testing me to see the limits of my new ability."
"Test your ability??" Valencia makes a thoughtful expression. "Do you mean on us?"
"Exactly." He sighs. "The truth is that the Leviathan ordered me to kill you."
Kamala pouts. "Really? That's pretty depressing... I thought this would be the start of a beautiful friendship."
Lucien knows they don't believe him, but he can't do anything about that. He just wants to relax a little more while he thinks about his next steps.
Then he smiles at Kamala. "You know, I thought you were just one of those disgusting nobles and that even your parents can't stand you anymore..."
Her expression gets sadder and sadder, but then she smiles brightly as she hears his next words. "But you're also a beautiful woman with a smart, kind, and fascinating side."
"So how about you don't kill me?" She makes a fake pleading expression.
"But I need someone to kill me right now!!" Valencia picks up a bottle of wine and starts drinking it. "I can't keep listening to this shit."
Lucien can't help but laugh at that bizarre situation. He's been frank with them about being about to kill them, but they can't believe it because his story is literally unbelievable.
He looks at Kamala with a fake sorry expression. "The creature is much more powerful than me and will keep me from going back to my wives until I do what she wants."
"Oh..." She makes an expression of understanding. "So you don't have a choice, I see."
"That's not really true." He explains. "I could ignore the Leviathan's orders and face her with your help. But I prefer the easier option, which is to kill you. If that will make me return to my lovers faster, I accept. That's I'm so selfish."
"So mean..." Kamala puts again. "Don't you really want to give us a chance?"
"There is no 'us' between us." He speaks with a real sorry expression as a part of him is really attracted to Kamala's exotic body, or rather, her mother's supposed exotic and mature body.
While Kamala is disappointed, Valencia continues to laugh sarcastically. "Oh boy… I thought demons were smarter than that. You'll regret not accepting her help."
Lust and Helena roll their eyes while Lucien continues to drink brandy. But then something caught his attention in another room near that bathroom.
"He's scary..." It's the voice of one of the servants who came out of the bathroom after fixing the hole in the wall. "He seems actually to be in the Earth Realm, but he's much more powerful than that. Also, those women with him are the same; they're really dangerous!"
"Did you find out what their abilities are? Do you know how those women appear out of nowhere?" It's a man's voice now, Alonzo, to be exact.
The woman who is a spy with identification abilities reports. "I felt a bit of Spatial Mana in him, but there are a lot of other different energies as well. And those women seem to have the same energies... I have no idea what kind of abilities they have."
Alonzo sighs as he looks at the other people in the room while everyone is holding magical tools created by him. "Listen well; there can be no mistakes; on my signal, we'll enter from all the secret passages and fire nets at everyone in sight."
"But what about Boss and the Naga princess?" Another guy asks.
"Boss is already aware of that," Alonzo explains. "We can't let them get away, so we have to fire nets at everyone. So we have to remove the nets off Boss and Kamala quickly."
He makes a focused expression. "You know Boss doesn't accept failure, so you know what to do."
"Alright." Those people nod and then go get ready in the secret passages around the bathroom.
But the woman makes a concerned expression. "That guy... there were a lot of strange auras around him... I don't know if it has something to do with demons, but what if the magic nets don't work on him?"
"Don't worry, as long as we can cover his body with one of these nets, he won't be able to use any energy or ability," Alonzo speaks with a confident expression.
"I've been working on these magic nets for hundreds of years, and no creature can escape it without external help, no matter how strong they are. I'm not sure yet, but I believe even Cosmic Realm people can escape it as it blocks access to any energy type." He explains.
The woman nods. "So let's do this… let's capture some demons!"
"Yeah." Alonzo smiles and then walks towards the bathroom with his magic tool, ready to fire magic nets.
In the bathroom, while Valencia still mocks at Lucien's story and Kamala doesn't know what to do, he and Lust look at each other with thoughtful expressions.
'So he was the one who created that magic net that was over Kayla's body...' Lucien mentally comments to Lust.
'I guess so...' She answers. 'I hadn't paid attention to that magic net before, but it actually looked like a very interesting tool... could it really block access to any kind of energy regardless of the target's power?'
'If so, it could trap any creature...' They wonder about the same creature
'It would have to be a very big net...' She comments.
'But it could be a plan.' He responds.
She nods. 'Yes, it looks like a plan.'
After creating a very crazy plan with Lust, Lucien looks to Valencia. "Hmm... I hadn't thought of that before, but you are the leader of those pirates, right? Dark Sea Riders, I guess..."
"Black!" She speaks in an upset tone. "It's Black Sea Riders, and yes, I lead my people."
"I see." Lucien smile. "Well, I have to thank you for that ship. My wives must be enjoying it now."
"Ship? Which ship?" Valencia is confused for a second before remembering about the main ship missing in her fleet. So, she quickly summons her soul weapon and points it at Lucien again.
"Damn bastard!" She exclaims. "You were the one who attacked the Sea Devil, right?? What did you do with Carmelo and his group??!?"
