Reborn as the Dragon King's Son-In-Law
Chapter 70: The Empire’s Defeat
No one in that place agreed to let Shelia go with Athena and Elize. Moreover, Lucius was now continuously showing his lazy expression towards the attitude shown by his second daughter. For some reason, sighs began to escape from Lucius’s mouth.
Nothing good would happen if Lucius opened his mouth to help his son-in-law. With Lilith taking the initiative to personally help Lucien, Lucius would not hesitate to let her take full control of what was happening.
It wasn’t Lucius’s right to interfere in his wife’s problems. This was a problem between the strongest. Because Lilith had succeeded in defeating the Dragon Emperor, Lucius could only act humbly when facing his wife.
"Honey, I have to go and take our precious daughter with us. I hope you won’t be angry with the actions I’m taking right now."
A nod appeared on Lucius’s face after listening to his wife’s request. Letting Athena have sex with Lucien was the main goal behind Lucius making Lucien his son-in-law. After all, both Athena and Lucien were a couple destined to be together.
"You guys go and help that man regain his sanity. I entrust everything to you."
A small grin appeared on Lilith’s face. Regardless of the reactions shown by Heilde, Ariel, Tifa, and Tina, Lilith decided to take Athena and Elize with her as they floated away.
The sudden appearance of Lilith in front of Lucien shocked his instincts, causing him to subconsciously fly backward from his position. A large part of Lucien felt afraid when facing Lilith. As a human, Lucien’s instincts towards an ancient dragon like Lilith endlessly filled him with fear.
"Don’t be afraid. I came to take you back with us. Please don’t fight, Lucien. This will all be over as soon as possible."
"..." The reaction shown by Lucien, who had lost his mind, was only an expressionless face. For now, his entire body showed no movement after receiving Lilith’s touch. Even so, both Elize and Athena couldn’t hide their wary expressions when they witnessed the events happening before them.
The attitude that Lilith currently showed towards their lover was no different from that of a woman who wanted to express her gratitude to the person who had saved her. Athena and Elize couldn’t know the situation that had occurred when Lilith fought face-to-face with the Dragon Emperor. For lowly beings, spying on a fight between two ancient beings would only bring backlash upon their bodies and souls.
"Mother, even though I know that you want to show your kindness towards Cien, but... please don’t make us wait in this place for too long."
"Ah. You’re right. I’m sorry. Alright. I’ll take you guys back now."
Once again, the presence of Lilith, Athena, Elize, and Lucien disappeared from the sky. Every spectator who had previously been floating in the sky showed relieved expressions after witnessing the human’s departure.
Letting Lilith deal with that human’s rampage was a good choice for the empire. Suddenly, the Dragon Emperor appeared among his followers. At the same time, the expression he currently showed was endlessly lifeless.
"Interesting too... I didn’t expect that bastard to lose the most important reproductive organ for every man." The only person who was aware of the Dragon Emperor’s current situation was Lucius. As a man, Lucius knew that the Dragon Emperor’s genitals had now completely disappeared.
Recalling the cruel nature Lilith had shown towards her enemies in the past, it was not surprising that someone like the Dragon Emperor would lose his genitals. This was no problem at all for Lucius to comfort the Dragon Emperor after he had lost his reproductive organs. Instead, Lucius returned to monitoring the situation around the empire before finally deciding to turn back towards his daughters. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
"Heilde, Ariel, we will go back now. But not yet. First of all, you will come with your father to deal with the chaos happening in this place. There is no other way for us to escape the punishment that the empire will give us."
"Isn’t that their fault? Why does Father have to take responsibility for the destruction caused by the empire itself?"
After listening to Ariel’s reply, Lucius couldn’t help but shake his head. This was a political problem that could not be solved simply by blaming both parties.
Both sides had their own conflicts over what had happened throughout the years. Letting only one side take responsibility for the resulting chaos would be no different from creating further enmity between them. Therefore, as a leader and at the same time a king, Lucius had to show his authoritative attitude in front of the entire empire.
"You are still a little girl. You do not yet understand the meaning of being a leader. This job is much harder than you can imagine."
"What our father said is true. Ariel, you have to learn more about political affairs between countries. I’m afraid you will only bring more problems in the future." Even a woman like Heilde commented on the innocence of her youngest sister. In the end, Ariel was no different from a little girl who was always spoiled by her family. Even so, Heilde would not allow Ariel to maintain the arrogant attitude she had previously shown towards their brother-in-law.
Luckily, Ariel didn’t mind the advice given to her by her father and older sister. On the contrary, her mind was endlessly imagining the figure of Lucien, who could kill thousands of troops from the Vermillion family with just a wave of his sword.
A large part of Ariel felt extraordinary fear when she imagined the moment Lucien would show his domineering attitude towards his enemies. The attitude shown by Lucien when facing his enemies was no different from what their mother had shown in the past. That was also the reason why Ariel couldn’t hide her frightened expression whenever she imagined Lucien.
As time passed, Lilith, Elize, Athena, and Lucien arrived back at the castle. The place where they were currently standing was Lucien’s private room. Even though she was nervous, Athena decided to show her mature attitude like an experienced woman.
"Do it immediately and show your affection to your man. You must at least be able to dispel any negative energy he has accumulated from the previous absorption."
