Just this one sentence.
So the wedding will be held next month.
"… good."
This was Vader's answer.
When the climax came, Lucian felt himself being hugged tightly. Vader greedily wanted to take everything he wanted from him, and at this moment he buried his face in his shoulder, trembling as he endured everything Vader brought him - whether it was pain or pleasure.
At that moment, he felt like giving up on himself and devoting himself completely to the other person.
…
One day later, the devil in black emerged from the teleportation array, holding his lover in white.
The people who had been worried about the two for days finally breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, Susanna and Noah's faces were not very good when they saw the intimate posture of the two. Wade brought back the token of the Demon King, which had always been carried by Campbell who escaped. So he held Lucian's hand in the crowd and led him step by step into the Demon King's city, which had already knelt down to show his submission to him.
The crimson curtains opened to both sides. The majestic and weathered palace welcomed its new owner. Wade walked through the stone carvings, murals, pillars and colored windows on both sides, and sat on the crimson throne on the white stone steps. The guards on both sides handed the magic wand belonging to the Demon King to him.
"Surrender to me," he said.
Angel knelt on one knee, Susanna lifted her skirt to salute, and Noah saluted to show his submission. After them, it was Heloise who arrived at the royal city with a smile after learning that the victory was already decided.
Lucian stood beside the throne, looking at the stained glass window behind the throne with boredom. He saw that Noah was always a little worried. The delicate and beautiful boy pursed his lips, as if thinking about something. Among all the welcoming people, Lucian did not see Burton.
He guessed that Burton had left.
"Come here, Lucian."
Suddenly, he heard Wade's voice. When he turned around, he saw Wade put the wand into the guard's hand, and his deep purple eyes stared at him: "Come here."
Lucian walked over without knowing what was going on, and then Wade put his arms around his slender waist and sat on him.
Lucian exclaimed slightly, but Vader's arms were too strong and too tight. He had no choice but to sit on the throne with Vader in a slightly awkward position, and was held in his arms. He then smiled and said, "My Lord Demon, it is more appropriate to hold the scepter when sitting on the throne, right? Do you mistake me for the scepter?"
“You’re asking even though you already know the answer.” Wade chuckled and pinched the soft flesh on Lucian’s waist suggestively.
After being pinched there, Lucian became much more obedient. He didn't even have the strength to hum. It was worth it that Wade had explored all the most sensitive parts of his body over the past few days.
The warm sunlight fell on him through the stained glass window, and behind the throne were the demons bowing to him. The stability of the giant's blood temporarily suppressed the pain that burned in his blood day and night.
Lucian was in his arms.
At that moment, Wade thought of a collection of poems that he had taken out from the bookshelf of the Cecil family when he was a teenager. There were dried rose petals in the collection, which were bookmarks that Lucian accidentally put in when he was reading.
The sun was shining brightly outside the window. He looked through the window framed by the window lattice and saw Lucian sitting on the grass having a picnic with a soft and beautiful smile.
On the page of the book illuminated by the sunlight was a line of cursive calligraphy.
The years are long.
The burning pain in his blood continued day and night, and the roaring shadows continued day and night in his dreams. But at that moment, he truly felt that his life with Lucian could last longer.
- Even though Lucian once again told him the truth about the giant's blood drop in a situation where it was impossible for him to know it in advance.
The dark vines in his heart climbed up again, binding the red flowers on the ground. He slightly tightened the restraint on Lucian's waist, but said nothing.
He could pretend that he didn't know Lucian's secret, so that Lucian could feel at ease to a certain extent, but he would never allow Lucian to escape from his bondage.
The scene that Lucian had once unearthed from his memory, where he witnessed himself killing someone when he was eight years old, appeared in his mind again, along with the word "Number Five"...
He had a hunch that this would give Lucian a chance to escape from his unstable factor.
He thought of the other unresolved memory fragment belonging to Lucian that sank in his sea of consciousness. While merging with the blood of the giant, he gradually gained control over his sea of consciousness due to the special authority in it. Perhaps in the next few days he needs to find a way to deepen his control over his sea of consciousness, find a way to resolve the memory fragment that he had put aside for a long time due to busy affairs in his spiritual world, or even...
Enter your own spiritual world.
He increased his strength and held the slender waist of the person in his arms until Lucian made a sound of slight pain and looked at him.
At that moment Lucian lowered his eyes, and Wade suddenly realized that perhaps Lucian was also trying to hide something.
He wouldn't care about Lucian's concealment, he absolutely couldn't accept that Lucian would always be the only one to leave.
"In addition to ascending the throne today, I have something to announce to you all." Wade said to everyone in the audience, "In one month, I will marry Louis."
"He will be my Demon Queen."
…
After that, there was still a month until the wedding. During this month, a lot of things happened.
One is that the Lord of Greed City and the Lord of Gluttony City surrendered. The Lord of Greed City was a fence-sitter who only cared about interests. After learning that Witt had taken over, he immediately sent a generous gift. Even if the Lord of Gluttony City was unwilling, the Demon Realm was ultimately based on strength. In the end, he could only come willingly to swear loyalty.
There were also many small demon lords who did not belong to the big city-states who were unwilling to accept the fact that Vader was in power. They sneered at this wild boy who came from nowhere, and even tried to challenge him.
The blood-stained scorched earth and the terrified and shrill wails were proof of Wade's strength.
The corpses were piled up, the families were wiped out in the middle of the night... No one dared to doubt Vader's strength anymore. They bowed down to the new demon king in fear, worshipped him fanatically, and excitedly expected that this demon king who was much stronger than others could lead them to glory.
The Demon City Lord also swore an oath to Vader sincerely. The Demon City Lord's oath to the Demon King is not just a verbal oath. This oath is an unbreakable blood oath. Once violated, even the soul will be destroyed. Although over the years, there are few Demon Kings who have the power to control the terrifying effect of this oath.
Ved is different.
After the city lords took the oath one after another, Vader asked Xia Zuo and the regent to temporarily manage the affairs of Pride City. However, in any sense, Vader was still the real master of Pride City. However, as the Demon King, he no longer had to worry about dealing with any affairs - after all, the shock brought by the Demon King's powerful strength was the only thing that this title needed to show.
In addition, the Church of the human world also learned that the demon world had a new demon king. They tried to send many people to inquire about the new demon king's resume, but they could only see what Wade wanted them to see. Under the influence of the blood oath, any demon who knew about it knew how to keep the secret.
They speculated that this extremely powerful demon king from hell would stir up a storm of war, drag the entire human race into the abyss, carry out brutal sieges, and even unify the continent... Countless different opinions about the demon king's intentions were spread in the streets and alleys. But no one, including any demons in the border areas of the demon race, knew that their new demon king was now more concerned about not conquering or destroying a city-state, but...
His wedding to his queen.
The Demon King's castle has completely changed. The eerie, terrifying and huge city is now full of gorgeous decorations and strange flowers and rare decorations used for weddings. The decorations used by the demons for weddings are different from the holy white that humans like, mostly blue and crimson. Now the Demon King's castle has become a sea of crimson flowers.
Not only the curtains, drapes, and carpets turned crimson, but also the bed in the Demon King's room. Lucian's skin was fair, and she looked even more delicate on the bed.
Now he was lying on the bed, with Wade lying beside him, outlining his body with his eyes—from the protruding shoulder blades, to the concave spine line, to the soft waist—and the part beyond that.
"I guess they would never have thought that the new Demon King would be the missing emperor of the human race." Lucian said.
There was a little hoarseness in his voice. They had another crazy night last night. Since returning from the giants' ruins, Lucian suddenly needed Vader very much - not as often as when they were "in love" in the City of Pride. Although Lucian was also a succubus at that time, she had never taken the initiative to ask for it like now.
Lucian now has a stronger obsession to push himself into a desperate situation. He allows himself not to stop even when he is on the verge of collapse. When all his expressions, emotions, and body are deformed by Wade, he always has a subtle feeling of being soothed by his guilt. He knows that this will be the last time between him and Wade. Making love with him, in addition to gaining happiness for himself, is also a kind of...
compensate
When he thought of this idea, Lucian sneered in his heart. He thought this statement was really funny... a little cold, funny.
But the closer it got to this point, the less he could show his abnormality. After leaving the Giant Tribe Ruins, he got the news about Burton from Noah. Burton followed them into the ruins in front of everyone, and then he left the teleportation array, returned to the Demon Realm, and left alone.
But Lucian knew he could contact him at any time.
"Which dress did you like better from last time?"
"All right." Lucian turned over, put his arms around Wade's neck and said, "Do you prefer to see me in a skirt? Hmm?"
Wade's face turned slightly red. Lucian teased him, "Is it because if I wear a gauze skirt, it will be easier for you to touch me from below?"
"..." Wade whispered in his ear, "I can now touch you through your robe."
Lucian couldn't help laughing. Wade tickled his hips, and they rolled together again without realizing it. Faintly, Lucian's slightly annoyed voice came from the bed curtains: "Don't be so direct... Next time, tell me first... It will hurt..."
…
After everything was over, Wade placed his finger on the nose of Lucian, who had fallen asleep. Lucian paid the price after making trouble for a while, and now he had no strength left.
The two had been sticking together for more than 20 days. The absurdity of the past few days made his body smell even stronger, like honey that was about to condense. Wade pulled the quilt in place and said to Lucian, "I will go to the City of Pride this afternoon."
Lucian hummed in a sticky voice: "Why go to the City of Pride? Why don't you stay with me?"
Vader couldn't help but laugh.
He glanced at Lucian's ankles, and at that moment his heart was filled with tenderness. He whispered, "Go and take care of the business, and come back tomorrow. You stay here."
"Hurry up then." Lucian said.
Wade bent down and kissed him between the brows, then left the room.
After the teleportation array to the City of Pride lit up, Lucian finally came out of the room. He changed into a robe, and his body was still covered with the marks left by Vader, but his eyes were cold.
No one in the castle would doubt him. Everyone knew he was the queen that Vader was about to marry, and everyone knew they were deeply in love.
He confirmed that Wade had left the teleportation array and entered the dark room with the necessary materials.
The herbs that Burton gave him were indeed the right ones. Lucian felt that Burton wanted him to make a choice. He followed the steps in the book in the dark room.
Finally, he had the potion he needed—a slightly modified version.
The potion was hidden in the fingernails, so that Wade could smell it, or eat or drink it accidentally, and it would achieve the desired effect. The only difficulty was how to find a time to take the powder so that Wade could completely relax.
But now for Lucian... it is no longer a difficult task.
He stared at the powder that had already formed in the crucible, and then put it into a small bottle. At this moment, the system's voice rang in his ears: "Lucian, I feel that you have been... very unhappy recently?"
