Lust Knight (Web Novel)

"Mmmm..."

"It's so hard, my King..."

"Ahhh~~~!! Right there!!!"

The moans of the Nagas and Mermaids fill the inside of the magical dome above the giant turtle's shell; it is evident that they are having a great time with Lucien.

But much to everyone's displeasure, time with each group is pretty limited, and the sound of the barrier opening makes the ten girls hug Lucien tightly.

"Girls...girls?!" Lucien can barely see anything but lovely tails all over his face. One of the Mermaids is hugging his tail in a dangerous way that he is afraid to even move.

"That was too fast!" One of the Nagas complains.

"Yeah, I'm sure we haven't had enough!" A Mermaid continues.

As she approaches the pool, Saria is surprised to see Nagas and Mermaids getting along so well. She is happy with that, but then she remembers that they are the way because they just did naughty things with Lucien.

"You can't act so selfishly," Saria speaks in an authoritative tone, but that still sounds gentle too. "Lucien still has to boost the whole army, so don't make it harder for him."

The words 'Lucien' and 'harder' in the same sentence make the ten girls even hornier. But they all understand how serious the war situation is now and start to let go of him, even if a little reluctantly.

"Thank you, my King..." The girls say goodbye to Lucien with tender kisses before leaving the pool. But the Mermaid hugging his tail still seems to have a hard time letting go of him.

Saria feels sorry for that Mermaid as she can feel how strong are the feelings she has developed for Lucien, so she can't be hard on the poor girl.

Lucien also knows that the girl has already arrived at the pool having great respect and admiration for him; well, all the Mermaids who saw him fighting for them against the Krakens feel like that.

He starts caressing her face tenderly. "You're a good girl... and good girls deserve a lot of rewards."

"???" That Mermaid is very confused because she was sure Lucien would order her to release him, but in fact, he is saying that she is a good girl!?

Everyone looks at him with inquisitive expressions, and he starts to laugh. "But this isn't the time for rewards; that was just... necessary. So when this war is over, I'll make sure to reward you a lot."

[Wasn't that a reward???] Those five Mermaids and Nagas can't believe that the best thing that ever happened in their lives wasn't the 'real' reward from Lucien.

Those ten women are soldiers who never thought of having another life; they are willing to die on the battlefield for their races, queens, and world and despite having desires like any other people, they never expected to receive great rewards for such loyalty.

However, what Lucien offers them as a casual reward further impulses their loyalty and sparks a powerful desire to survive the war, not to become famous as the heroes who saved the Blue Star, but exclusively to receive Lucien's 'reward.'

Saria is shocked to witness just how powerful the flame Lucien rises within those women with only the promise of a reward. She believes that years of praise, titles, and riches could not match that simple promise of fun.

That hesitant Mermaid quickly lets go of Lucien's tail as she looks at him with eyes bright with expectation. For him, that look is as gratifying as his rewards are for them, so he kisses her lips.

That Mermaid's heart beats faster than ever, and as soon as he breaks the kiss, she quickly joins her friends behind Saria, now happier than ever.

"Thank you..." The ten girls bow to Lucien, grateful to him for his energies as well as the tenderness he gave them, and even the Mermaids call him as the Nagas do. "... My King."

Saria can't help but smile at Lucien before escorting the ten girls out of the dome while Lucien waits for the new group at the pool. But she returns quickly, alone and carrying a large platter full of seafood.

"Where's the next group?" He asks casually as his eyes roam over de Saria's perfect body. "I'm sure there's still a lot of work to do."

"Yeah... there's still more than half the armies waiting for you to... boost." Saria gets really shy talking to Lucien. Everything seemed simpler on their first meeting when she was just curious about him, but the more time she spends around him, the more she gets attracted to him.

"Hmm..." Lucien can't help but smile as he watches the shy Saria blushing more and more.

"Ah!" She bites her lip as she carries the seafood platter to a small poolside table and sees Lucien emerging from the water naked. He seems quite comfortable getting naked in front of women, but she can't contain her feelings and looks away before seeing his 'dragon.'

[You're so cute!!] He can't help but think as he holds back the urge to tease her more and materializes underwear as he leaves the pool.

"I... I just thought..." She shyly speaks as she points at the seafood. "You've been doing this for several hours, so I've brought you a snack so you can keep up… the energy."

"I see." Lucien arrives at Saria's side, but she refuses to look at his body, fearing she won't be able to look away anymore. "You know, I generate demonic energy like that, and that energy strengthens my life mana, sustaining all of my body's physical needs."

"Really?" Saria is surprised by that and ends up looking at Lucien but keeps the focus on his face. She doesn't doubt his words and ends up feeling useless. "So you don't need food..."

Lucien barely has time to say anything before Saria grabs the tray and tries to run away, but he takes her arm gently. "Actually, I do."

His warm touch sends shivers through her body, but she tries to stay calm. "How? Didn't you just say that doing… that… stops your body from needing other energies?"

"Yep, I shouldn't feel hungry while doing that." He explains. "But my mind still gets tired, and it makes my body crave usual things like food. Also, I like the taste of good food and drink."

"Um..." She smiles at him as she puts the tray back on the table. However, he is still holding her arm as if reluctant to let her go, and that makes her very happy.

She wishes he would hold her forever, but they don't really have time, so she points to the seafood on the tray. "So, eat as much as you want; I personally prepared it for you."

As the seafood that Saria brought is basically things that are eaten raw or lightly boiled, there is no cooking technique in such food. However, Lucien is very happy that she did it herself because he loves it when his wives prepare food for him.

"Thank you, my dear..." He says as he takes a shrimp from the tray and eats it. That's just a simple, clean, lightly steamed shrimp, but Lucien swears he can feel a slight special seasoning that only Saria could do.

Lucien tastes every food from the tray, and his eyes sparkle with each bite, making Saria even more proud. She was never really a good cook, but now she has the best motivation to improve her cooking techniques.

"I'm glad you're enjoying it..." She watches him eating closely, and before she realizes it, she's mesmerized watching the movements of his lips.

"Aren't you going to eat too?" He asks.

She shakes her head. "I'm fine; you can have it all."

"There's enough for both of us." He comments as he quickly takes a scallop from the tray and brings it to her mouth.

Saria had never had anyone put food in her mouth, not even when she was just a baby. But her body trusts Lucien so much that she instinctively opens her mouth and bites half of that scallop before realizing what just happened.

[WHHAA?!?!] She panics internally but tries to keep her posture calm and slowly finishes biting the scallop.

She finishes the bite slowly, and her lips end up touching Lucien's fingers, which causes her mouth to salivate much more, and it runs down the other half of the scallop.

[No, no, no...] Saria gets very embarrassed and fears Lucien will notice it, so she tries to swallow the other half of the scallop quickly.

But Lucien acts quickly and pulls it away from her mouth, leaving her confused. [What...]

Saria's confusion lasts for just a second before she sees Lucien smile and swallows the rest of the scallop with her juices, causing her embarrassment to be replaced by a powerful excitement.

He even licks the last of her saliva off his lips, making Saria go crazy. She can't understand how he always manages to appear more erotic and seductive.

Time seems to stop, and even seeing Lucien bringing his mouth towards her lips, she doesn't react. Then he kisses her passionately, mixing the tastes of the scallop and their saliva inside her little mouth.

Saria feels her heart melting as she couldn't be happier. [Mmmm... this is so good!!!]
