BXBX NOVEL Chapter 444: Hit me hard as you can
Chapter 444: Hit me hard as you can
Due to Lucien\'s confusing words, Alexa thinks he is lying to her in order to buy time. And she can\'t help but find a dirty and cowardly move.
"I really thought you looked like an interesting man..." She looks at him with a disappointed expression as she continues grabbing him by the neck. "But it looks like you\'re just a demon who likes to use stupid tricks."
Lucien rolls his eyes because he can\'t sigh and has trouble speaking. "That is complicated... but I will explain everything to you... as soon as we are done with this."
Again, Lucien\'s words make him sound like he\'s just trying to buy time. Well, he also knows that if he starts talking about sex in the middle of the fight, it would only make her more suspicious of him, so his only alternative is to resist for another seven minutes, not an easy task.
"It\'s enough, boy..." Alexa speaks in a disappointed tone. She really started to think that she could have a peculiar alliance with Lucien, but now that he started talking nonsense, she just wants to knock him down.
Without restraining her strength, she throws Lucien toward the ground.
*WHOOSH*
Unable to regain control of his body, he falls at an incredibly high speed and hits the ground with his back and wings in a brutal way, creating a crater of tens of meters deep and hundreds of meters wide.
*BOOOOOOM*
Dust and stones fly everywhere as Lust goes into despair, just like all Lucien\'s wives, because he doesn\'t respond instantly as usual.
In fact, as soon as his head hit the ground, his vision went dark before he saw a flash of the big golden gate in his mind.
"AAAARGH!!!" Lucien spits out a lot of blood as more blood leaks from various wounds over his whole naked body.
His bone aches, his skin burns, and his energies are almost done. At that moment, he realizes the real extension of Alexa\'s strength. He has to use a lot of demonic energy to resist her weaker blows, but when she hits him really hard, he gets completely ruined.
But he can\'t give up... Although he doesn\'t have to do that, he doesn\'t have to get involved in Helena\'s problems, and he doesn\'t really need an alliance with Alexa or even keep the Ghost Lady; he still wants to do that.
After everything he found out about the mysterious woman who is probably his mother, the priorities in Lucien\'s mind changed a little.
First of all, he still has to gather all his sisters and their whole family. He also very much wants to solve the problem of the Bloody Rose slowly driving them crazy to death.
But now, in addition to reuniting with his mother and anything else, Lucien wants power, be it in the form of his own power or powerful allies, preferably ones that can become his wives.
In addition to continuing to empower his current wives, he knows he needs more, or rather, women with better power and potential, which will make him stronger faster, also allowing him to make his other wives stronger faster.
Lucien is like the main axle of his family, and to make their cycle of power spin faster, he needs to get bigger, greater, stronger... he needs women like Helena and Alexa... He needs the Ghost Lady and the other cursed weapon... and he cannot give up that opportunity.
Then he gets up. He gets up and uses some of the little demonic energy he still has to recreate his armor while his life mana regenerates his injuries; thanks to Sophia, he still has a good amount of that.
From the sky, Alexa looks at Lucien with a thoughtful expression. "I have to admit; you are the toughest manipulating demon I have ever met... I don\'t like having to break you, but my family is more important than your shits."
Lucien keeps an excited and confident smile on his face; he has to act like that; he has to show himself strong and fearless so that his wives don\'t worry too much and no men think about messing up with them.
Then he points to Alexa before pointing to his thighs. "Your head will be lying here in six minutes."
"What the fuck?!?" An angel from the Crassus House shouts, indignant at Lucien\'s actions.
"Is he crazy?!?!" Many of them ask. They have never seen anyone continue to fight Alexa having no chance of winning, let alone be so bold.
"This shitty demon is begging so much to die..." Another angel comments. Most of them disagree and are even angry with the Gods, but they don\'t like the demons either.
In Corvus House\'s group, Genevieve and all the other angels do not know what to think of that scene. They saw Lucien fighting in such an impressive way, shocking them not only with his strength but also mercifulness to spare them. Now, even though they don\'t love him, they don\'t want to see him in such a bad situation either.
And while Lucien\'s troops are silent and do not lose confidence in their Master for not even a second, his wives are going through one of the most difficult moments of their lives.
Cassidy and Angela have to keep the other girls out of the fight while fighting their own urge to help him. They respect no one more than Lucien, but they can\'t just stand and watch him suffer that much.
Yet, although Lucien is being beaten so badly, he continues to act confidently and dominantly, as always. Even facing an opponent so much stronger than him, he keeps telling them to trust him, so they do.
*WHOOSH*
Alexa flies towards Lucien, and he tries to dodge her attack, but his speed is slowing down according to his demonic energies. He used all the mixes, and now he only has his original energy.
*BAM*
She doesn\'t hit him with the blade of the sword but with Its hilt. Alexa doesn\'t want to kill Lucien, but she also doesn\'t want to waste any more time listening to his nonsense.
As he rolls on the ground after being thrown back dozens of meters, Lucien tries to regain his balance, but before he does anything, Alexa is already attacking him again, with kicks, punches, and hitting him with non-lethal parts of her sword\'s hilt.
*BAM* *BAM!* *BAM!!* *BAM!!!*
With every brutal blow from Alexa, more Lucien\'s blood flies everywhere while she also breaks parts of his armor. After a minute, he gets unable to repair his armor, just as his life mana is unable to heal all his injuries.
"We have to do something!!!" Luise, who is also on Angela\'s floating platform, speaks while she can no longer see Lucien being beaten. She just got a son-in-law, and she definitely doesn\'t want to lose him.
"He can do this..." Donna comments while her nails are cutting the flesh from her hand as she closes them in fists.
Sophia\'s eyes shine with expectation as her heart bleeds along with Lucien. And Amelia doesn\'t stop crying, as does his wives with fragile hearts.
The Sins are fascinated by how much Lucien can resist, especially Wrath, who now understands why Pride respects him.
Sloth is also really impressed. "He\'s not even close to having the strength and speed similar to hers, but with each hit she does, and he doesn\'t keep down, she is more inclined to accept him as her ally..."
"But is it going to be worth it??!?!" Ghalenna asks in a clearly furious tone. Although she did not accept Lucien as her husband yet, she begins to realize how much she likes him.
"She\'s killing him!!!" Astrid grits her teeth while Cassidy holds her.
Helena also doesn\'t like how things are going. But she believes in Lucien. She knows that Alexa\'s fate will be terrible if she doesn\'t have someone like him to help her.
"She won\'t kill him." Helena comments.
"But he keeps getting up... what if..." Madelyn asks as tears wet her whole dress.
They see Lucien fall again, and Alexa gets ready to kick him. Everyone gets tense at that moment, and then Amelia\'s eyes sparkle.
She quickly teleports in front of Lucien and points her two swords at Alexa.
Alexa quickly pulls her sword down while looking at Amelia with a curious expression. "Teleport skill too... are you his sister?"
"FUCK YOU!!" Amelia ignores Alexa\'s question while Lust and Envy materialize their bodies and also point their weapons to the angel.
"Amelia..." She hears Lucien\'s voice in a loving, sorry, and still confident tone.
She looks back and sees him standing up as he regenerates small parts of his armor. The scene of him so hurt break her heart, but he still has an excited smile on his face, which makes her want to cry even more.
"Lucien!!!" She tries to hug him, but he quickly extends his hand to her while making a stop sign.
"Don\'t get involved in this..." He says while his life mana regenerates the open wounds on his face. "I can do this... I have to do it... just believe me!"
"But-" Amelia tries to say something, but Sophia quickly reaches her side and takes her flying to Angela\'s floating platform while looking at Lucien with a gentle smile.
Lucien knows that his wives are suffering because of his pain. And although Sophia is the one who is suffering the most from that, she is also the one who most believes in his success.
And it is because she, as well as Oya, Ko, and many of his other wives, believe in him that he is managing to continue pushing his body beyond the limits.
Then he materializes the golden naginata and his red katana while looking at Alexa. "Don\'t worry; I won\'t count this time."
Alexa shakes her head. "Do you really think a few seconds are going to be the difference between your success or loss?"
"Yeah, I do." He quickly responds as he prepares to block her next attacks.
"You are really unbelievable..." Alexa starts to smile. "Sometimes I think you are a dirty manipulative demon, but sometimes I also think that you are just a very stupid guy... or a really strong..."
Lucien also smiles at Alexa. "Alright, how about you hit me now? I still want you to lie on my lap, you know."
She rolls her eyes. "I really don\'t like doing this… but If that\'s what you want..."
Then she swings her sword towards him. He can see her movements, but his body cannot keep up with his senses.
Alexa is sure that she will hit that blow on Lucien. She aims at his leg with the intention of causing an injury that will prevent him from continuing to fight but without being fatal.
But as soon as her blade is a few inches from his body, Lucien disappears, using what remains of his spatial mana.
*Blink*
Alexa is surprised that he is still able to use the teleport skill, and as soon as she realizes that, she expects him to appear above or behind her because he does not seem to be the type of person who tries to escape, something she already likes a lot about him.
But shocking her, he reappears in front of her, just avoiding her blade. Alexa did not expect that and was already changing the angle of her attack, which prevents and changes it so quickly again.
*BAM*
The blood flies... not Alexa\'s, but Lucien\'s while he hits her in the chin with his fist, hurting his hand while throwing her back.
While in the air, Alexa can see Lucien\'s excited and confident smile even as blood runs down his face. That image will never leave her mind.
[You... really impressive...] She thinks while she doesn\'t even try to regain control of her body and let herself fall and roll on the ground.
