Chapter 674 Bragging A Little
Chapter 674 Bragging A Little
*CRAAAAAACK— CTASSS!!!*
Thunders echo for miles around Mermaid Capital.
The sea is angrier than ever.
The sky is dark as the most sinister night.
And thousands of Naga soldiers come out of the dark magic portals in the sky, positioning themselves in lines around the Crystal City.
All Mermaids and female Naga loyal to Lucien gather inside the city, watching as their King flies alone toward the enemy.
He's never really alone with Lust by his side, but even though they're scared, all those Mermaids want to follow him into battle.
Yet, they stay to obey his, Saria's, and also Eve's orders.
Meanwhile, Lucien quickly flies towards Tyrion's army without hesitation.
Although his new power level allows him to fight someone from the Cosmic Realm in normal situations, his status is now very bad due to the lack of demonic energy.
Without his wives at his side, his demonic energy generation is very low, and he knows he wouldn't last even a minute against Tyrion in a serious fight.
However, his wives, Nea, and Maya are already arriving; also, Pride will wake up at any moment, allowing them to use the Sinful aura with the Seven Sins to boost the army and themself more than ever.
The plan seems perfect, but he needs to buy time for that plan to be possible. And to do that, Lucien must not show weakness, or Tyrion will immediately attack.
That's why he is flying towards the enemy alone now. Showing confidence will confuse Tyrion long enough for the others to arrive.
And if something goes wrong, Lucien can always take refuge in the Purple World, which would puzzle Tyron out for a while too.
"Tyrion!?" Lucien shouts to the sky in a confident and casual tone.
"..." Hundreds of thousands of Naga soldiers hear Lucien's voice and look at him with varying expressions.
Many of them think that Lucien is already a dead man, while those smart enough are shocked that the Crystal City is still standing after the Kraken attack, and that's due to his leadership.
"Tyrion!? Where are you??" Lucien uses his energy to make his voice echo even louder. "Are you so scared to face me??"
*CRAAAAACK— BOOM!!!*
A dark thunderbolt descends from the sky over Lucien, carrying the incredible power of a Cosmic Realm person.
*CLANG*
Lucien uses his superior senses and agility to summon his golden naginata to block that attack, creating a powerful force wave that can be felt by thousands of surrounding Nagas.
Tyrion's dark energy runs through the naginata's blade but is expelled by the weapon's power.
[DAMN!!] Lucien is surprised to come out unscathed from an attack like that.
But even though his new power is so incredible, that move cost him half of all the demonic energy he had managed to gather in the last few minutes.
'What are you doing???' Lust complains in Lucien's mind as she becomes very concerned about his safety.
'It's fine.' He responds as he turns his attention to the sky.
"Sending monsters to attack cute girls and now trying to hit me with a sneak attack??" Lucien asks in a mocking tone. "And you still think you're a King???"
"ARROGANT BASTARD!!!" The sky trembles with the power of Tyrion's voice echoing angrily for miles.
Tyrion really wants to hurt Lucien now, but making another attack could be considered a sneak move, and he would just lose more face in front of everyone.
Then he descends from behind the dark clouds in his black battle armor and carrying his dark and gloomy trident. Tanu follows behind him, silent and head down, but a curious glint passes through her eyes as she glances at Lucien.
Now that Lucien has a better understanding of the Immortal Realm, he can feel Tyrion's powerful aura and understand how far his power differs from that of a person from the Immortal Realm.
It's as if thousands of Immortal Realm people have united their powers into one individual, something really frightening.
'How did you let me fight this guy when I was in the Earth Realm yet?' Lucien asks Lust.
'Did I have the option to stop you???' She feels like rolling her eyes inside his soul.
Lucien tries to stop thinking about how powerful Tyrion looks and keeps his expression confident. "Oh, there you are, the angry cuckold."
"..." Tyrion's face shakes as he is deeply furious. Yet, he uses all his will to contain that anger, as showing it would only give more reason for everyone to laugh at him.
"..." Thousands of Nagas are shocked to see someone call Tyrion a cuckold as he does nothing; that scene is simply unbelievable.
'What the hell are you doing?!?' Lust scolds Lucien again. 'If you're trying to get him to kill you already, you're on the right track.'
'It's fine, look...' Lucien explains. 'He's trying desperately not to make it obvious that I've crushed on his pride by stealing his wife; now he has to prove to everyone that he is superior to me before making any move.'
Lust can't deny that Lucien's argument makes some sense, but she still fears that Tyrion will attack and he won't be able to fight due to his lack of demonic energy.
Tanu, behind Tyrion, also has a shocked expression on her face and a little urge to laugh, tickling her brain.
But he tries to maintain a fake calm expression as he gazes at Lucien. "Idiot boy... you look proud of getting that bitch... but I don't see her next to you right now, and neither Nea..."
"Nea?" Lucien smiles before faking a curious expression. "What do you want with my Mermaid Queen?"
"YOUR?!?" Tyrion lets out his anger for a second before trying to calm down again. "Are you really that stupid?"
"You don't believe she's already mine?" Lucien asks sarcastically. "Alright, when she arrives, you will see the mark of our soul contract on her sexy belly."
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!" Tyrion gets even angrier and points his black trident at Lucien.
But Tanu quickly steps in front of him. "Wait, my King! He is deliberately taunting you; this could be a trap-"
*PAH*
Before Tanu can finish speaking, Tyrion harshly slaps her hard in the face, throwing her into the sea as blood leaks from her holes.
Attacking Lucien due to his provocations would be asking to be ridiculed, but it's okay to take his anger out on Tanu.
"Shut up, you bitch!" Tyrion feels better after hitting Tanu and turns his attention to Lucien. "You are nowhere near good enough for Nea."
"That's for her to decide." Lucien quickly responds with that confident smile on his face, which is making Tyrion increasingly furious.
"No, boy, she doesn't decide anything; only power decides, and I have the power to make that choice for her." Tyrion speaks arrogantly. "I'm going to take Nea for myself along with what's left of her people."
"Oh..." Lucien shakes his head with a mocking expression. "Sounds like you're the type of guy who just talks and doesn't do anything in the end."
Tyrion just wants to crush Lucien's head. But he has to act superior. "What about you?? What have you done so far, boy??"
Lucien is happy that his plan to buy time is working, so he just keeps up the trash talk longer as the auras of his wives get closer and closer.
"What did I do? Let me think..." Lucien put his fingers on his chin while making a fake reflective expression.
"I made your daughter my beloved wife, stole your wife, and made her really pleased..."
"Then I became King of the people you want to conquer... and, of course, conquered the heart of the woman you most admire..."
"Oh, and don't forget the part where I destroyed your monster army."
"..." Tyrion regrets asking that question; now he just looks dumber in front of everyone and wants to kill Lucien more than ever.
"Oh, don't look like that, dear father-in-law." Lucien goes further in his provocations, looking at Tyrion with a fake friendly expression.
"After I kill you, this will be a good story for me to tell your grandchildren in the future." He smiles. "You know, my daughters with Kamala are going to rule this world along with their Mermaids sisters one day."
ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm Tyron doesn't want to think about that, but the scene just pops into his mind. There, a beautiful pair of Naga and Mermaid Queens rule the Blue Star together.
One of them looks like Mira and Kamala, while the other looks like Nea and Saria, but both also look like Lucien.
Tyrion goes mad at the thought of Lucien having everything he's ever wanted.
"YOU BASTARD!! I WILL KILL YOU ALREADY!!!"
