Reborn as the Dragon King's Son-In-Law
Chapter 76: Lucien Is Mine
"That human boy is called Lucien, right? He is also the heir of His Majesty God King Velvet, a figure I have believed in for a long time until now. Is it true that a God King exists in the world? I have a little doubt about this myth that has existed for hundreds of thousands of years."
Myths from ancient times provide a clue about the existence of such a God King. Every god who occupies the position of God King is no different from a myth that has existed since the time of creation. Therefore, every living being throughout the world absolutely did not believe that the God King was a real existence.
Countless legends said that with just a flick of a finger from a God King, it could destroy a star with just a fraction of its power. But that is just a legend from ancient times. As sentient beings born with common sense, it was impossible for any living being to believe that an existence like the God King could exterminate them with a single flick of a finger.
But Lucien’s presence in the world confused Lilith’s thoughts about the reality of the God King’s existence. Inheriting every aspect of the God King is a miracle for every member of the Dragon race. Every member of the Lucifer family had thoughts of finding the successor of God King Velvet and bringing him into their residence.
As if fate had answered every wish of the Lucifer family, the eldest daughter of Lilith managed to find the heir of God King Velvet from the Human race. After all, Lucien was the only heir who inherited every characteristic of God King Velvet in his body.
The world’s will, which answered Lilith’s doubts, did not allow her to maintain a calm expression. It had been more than a thousand years since Lilith had shown such enthusiasm after remembering the incident that had previously happened to her. On the contrary, Lilith was completely unable to stop her calm mind from imagining the figure of Lucien, who was previously in his abnormal form.
"That form... that power... he gives off an invincible feeling even when he faces my overwhelming strength. I hope that kid can defeat me even in terms of strength and cultivation."
As time went by, every citizen in the Dragonia Kingdom began preparing for a party to celebrate Lucien’s victory the next day. This was an event that Lucius had prepared for the citizens. As a king, Lucius had to at least give every citizen the happiness of celebrating Lucien’s victory in the fight against Charles.
Both Lucius and his other daughters had absolutely no problem with what the citizens wanted to do the next day. Even though Ariel was sad and shocked when she witnessed that human’s victory in a face-to-face battle against Charles, she had no choice but to approve of Athena and Lucien’s relationship.
The extraordinary strength that Lucien had shown previously was one of the reasons why Ariel had completely accepted the relationship between Lucien and Athena as lovers. This was the first time Ariel had witnessed the prowess of her future brother-in-law while fighting in the arena. From Ariel’s point of view, the strength that Lucien had shown previously was no different from that of a monster who could defeat anyone in the entire world.
"I’m sure that you now know why your sister stopped you from provoking our future brother-in-law. He’s not an ordinary human being that we can mess with as we please. I hope you understand what I’m saying."
"Sister Heilde, what you said is true. Thank you for stopping me from provoking our brother-in-law earlier."
"It doesn’t matter. Even though you are a naughty and arrogant girl, you are still our precious little sister."
The figure of Shelia, who was between Heilde and Ariel, did not show any expression other than her frightening face. A hint of anger appeared on Shelia’s cold and expressionless face. If it weren’t for her father, who had stopped her from interfering with the relationship between her brother-in-law and her older sister, Shelia would not hesitate to run away and peek at every action Athena and Elize made towards Lucien.
Both Ariel and Heilde started hugging each other after they said the words they wanted to say. But Shelia did not care at all about the amusing attitude shown by her two sisters. On the contrary, Shelia’s mind was currently occupied with imagining how Athena and Elize would torture Lucien.
’That should be my place... Sister Athena and that bitch Elize... the two of them have dared to monopolize my Lucien! I have to do something so I don’t let my kind brother-in-law be tortured by those two crazy women.’
Every day, every moment, and almost every season, what Shelia thought about was the figure of Lucien. There was never a day when Shelia forgot Lucien’s image in her mind. The obsession that Shelia had towards Lucien far surpassed the feelings shown by Athena and Elize.
Both Athena and Elize noticed the strange behavior shown by Shelia whenever she was around Lucien. Moreover, Elize constantly received sharp stares from Shelia whenever she and Lucien were together. However, there was nothing Elize could do to stop Shelia from trying to spy on Lucien and her from behind the scenes.
Even though Shelia was angry and really wanted to snatch her brother-in-law from Athena and Elize’s grasp, she could not do anything while he was by Athena’s and Elize’s side. Shelia’s strength, when compared to Athena’s and Elize’s, was completely incomparable to the strength of those two incredibly powerful women.
From Shelia’s perspective, the strength and talent of Athena and Elize were like those of monsters she could never challenge in her entire life. But Shelia was one of Lilith’s daughters. Therefore, she had great potential that could allow her to increase her strength far beyond that of every living being in the entire world.
Only Athena and Elize could surpass Shelia in terms of talent. Shelia, Heilde, and Ariel all inherited talents from their mother. Most of the three sisters inherited one of the unique powers that Lilith possessed in the past.
Every characteristic possessed by Lilith’s daughters came directly from their mother. The cells that Lucius passed on to his four daughters had absolutely no influence whatsoever on their talents. On the contrary, the cells that Lilith had bequeathed to her four daughters had completely overshadowed any greatness that Lucius’s cells could have passed on to them.
Strength was one of the main factors determining whether a baby would be born with the talents of its incredibly powerful parents. Even though Lucius possessed strength equivalent to the Dragon Overlord stage, he was still a much weaker dragon compared to Lilith.
