Lust Knight - Chapter 675

"YOUUUU!!!"

Tyrion’s furious voice echoes along with thunders as he charges toward Lucien with killing intent.

The greedy Naga Tyrant planned to steal Lucien’s power using dark magic as he did to Mira, but after Lucien’s taunts, he got blinded by rage.

Such provocations shouldn’t affect anyone that much, but Lucien managed to hit Tyrion’s biggest frustrations, especially the fact that he’s been trying to conquer the Mermaid Kingdom and Nea for so many years.

Now, the entire Naga army and the Mermaids watch as Tyrion angrily attacks Lucien in the sky.

*BLINK* *WHOOSH* *BLINK* *WHOOSH*

But no matter how high Tyrion’s speed is, he is a Naga out of the water, and Lucien has his teleport skill, which gives him a small advantage.

Yet, Lucien doesn’t have much spatial mana left, and Amelia and Helena are still dozens of miles away.

However, one person is already well ahead of the group, and that is Nea. Due to her water affinity and high power, she can move through the sea faster than the Sea Devil if she pushes her body beyond its limits.

She spent energy very quickly doing that, but after feeling that Lucien needed her help, she didn’t think twice before rushing toward him.

Now, she desperately tries to understand how to use mental communication with him. ’Lucien? Lucien, can you hear me?? Shit, am I doing this right?!’

’Calm down, Nea, if you scream so much in my head, I’ll be dead before you get here.’ Lucien’s voice sounds in her mind.

’Lucien!!’ Nea can’t help but exclaim again. ’Why do I feel this so powerful and dark aura near you??’

’It’s Tyrion.’ He responds while dodging the Naga King’s furious blows.

’What??’ Nea gets worried. ’The attack already started!?’

’Yeah, but our people are fine; Tyrion just arrived.’ Lucien explains.

’I’m going as fast as I can!’ Nea speaks as she pushes her body even further beyond the limits, creating giant waves over her as she swims so fast toward Lucien.

’Thanks for that...’ Lucien responds in a gentle tone. ’But I need to ask you something else.’

’What is it??’

’It’s just a crazy plan I have.’

’Why don’t I like how it sounds?’ Nea can sense by Lucien’s tone that he’s going to ask something weird.

’You’re going to have to get used to this at some point...’ He comments, and before she can respond, he continues.

’But even if it has a small chance of working, do you really want to miss an opportunity to end this war before some Mermaid gets hurt?’

Nea doesn’t need to think to answer that. ’Fine, just tell me what to do.’

’Great, you just have to...’ Lucien explains his crazy plan, which makes Nea almost blush.

She quickly arrives in front of Crystal City and passes under the Naga army. They notice her aura, but she moves quickly and emerges from the water at the spot where Lucien is dodging Tyrion’s attacks.

Lucien is really relieved that Nea has arrived, as he only has spatial mana left to teleport a few more times.

But instead of taking refuge in the Purple World as was his plan, he now has something else in mind.

Nea comes out of the water just as Tyrion is launching a powerful attack toward Lucien with his trident, but instead of avoiding it, Lucien blocks the attack with his golden naginata.

With such a small amount of demonic energy, Lucien could not stop Tyrion’s trident, but when Nea’s blue sword joins his blade, they succeed.

*CLANG*

The sound of clashing metal echoes for miles, followed by a powerful force wave generated by the impact of such powerful soul weapons.

When Lucien’s body is not split in half along with his soul weapon by that attack, everyone is shocked, especially Tyrion, who is seeing Nea right in front of him.

’Now, Nea!!’ Lucien exclaims in her mind.

And although Nea thinks that plan is so damn silly, she gets embarrassed and hesitant in the end.

’Are you sure t-’ She starts talking.

’Just do it!’

Nea knows they don’t have time, so she pushes hesitation to the back of her mind and puts on a loving face before ignoring Tyrion and looking at Lucien.

"Sorry, Hubby... I came as fast as I could." Nea speaks in the most loving tone she can, causing Tyrion to be shocked to the very soul.

"NEA?!?!?!" He exclaims in bewilderment.

Hearing Lucien says that he had become the Mermaid King and even got Nea’s affection made Tyrion furious, but seeing the proudest and most graceful woman of them all acting so obedient and loving towards Lucien in front of him broke Tyrion’s mind.

That sort of thing shouldn’t be that impactful, but Tyrion can’t help but think of how many hundreds of years he’s spent rising to the top of the Naga kingdom, becoming the most powerful person in Blue Star, and still being looked down upon by Nea.

No man could be good for the beautiful and proud Mermaid Queen. None except him... Of course, after he conquered the whole Blue Star, she would have to accept him as her King and husband.

But then a hybrid boy comes out of nowhere, and Nea gives him everything... that is so surreal for Tyrion’s proud heart to accept.

Tyrion has never felt his confidence so shaken before, and that works just as Lucien expected, causing the Naga King to lose focus on the battle.

’Now!!’ Lucien exclaims in Nea’s mind again.

She is surprised that his plan actually works, so without wasting any time, she forces her sword forward.

Tyrion is stunned for a second, long enough for Nea to throw him off balance.

Lucien knows that a frontal attack would alert the Naga King, so he teleports over Tyrion and makes a vertical attack with his golden naginata.

*WHOOSH*

Tyrion still acts quickly and raises his trident, blocking Lucien’s attack.

But that was also part of Lucien’s plan, and the Naga King lets his guard open in front of Nea, who doesn’t miss that change.

*Whoosh* *SLICEEE!*

She makes a vertical slash with as much speed as grace, opening a wide gash across Tyrion’s belly.

His dark, corrupted blood splatters from the wound as he becomes even more shocked.

Tyrion feels even more stupid and furious that he is being so easily manipulated by Lucien, which further blinds him.

Nea takes advantage of the moment to bring her sword back with even more speed, but then everything starts to go dark around her.

"NOOOOO!!!" Tanu’s voice sounds desperate as the Siren uses one of her most powerful skills.

Lucien also notices everything going dark in front of his eyes; then he hears Lust’s voice in his mind.

’It’s dark magic!!’ She exclaims.

’Damn!!’ Lucien has to make a quick decision; he can keep trying to kill Tyrion while he is blinded by rage and injured or defend himself from that dark magic skill.

Killing Tyrion would end the war, but Lucien cannot do it alone, and that injury may not be enough for him and Nea to kill the Naga King quickly.

So he quickly chooses to abandon the attack and try to avoid that dark magic skill.

’We have to get out of here!’ He talks to Nea mentally.

’We can kill him already!’ She tries to attack Tyrion, but her vision is completely corrupted by darkness.

Nea feels a powerful dark energy attacking her body from all sides, but before that energy breaks through her defenses, a golden light appears in the middle of the darkness like a beacon.

The contrast between total darkness and the bright golden light momentarily blinds Nea, but then she feels Lucien’s warm and trustworthy arms hug her.

’We’re still going to kill him, don’t worry.’ His voice sounds in her mind.

Nea was always used to doing everything alone; even accepting Maya’s help felt strange to her. But now, there’s something nice about having Lucien on her side; it’s like she’s tired of doing it all alone and willing to accept help.

So, she just let him pull her out of that dark magic miasma.

And even though she is in the middle of the most important battle of her people, Nea can’t help but have strange thoughts.

[Is this what it means to have a husband?]

[Maybe it’s not as bad as I thought...]

[But I’ll still make him pay for making me say that out loud!]
