*Woosh* *Bam*
From among the clouds above Lucien, a mysterious figure appears. It descends at high speed and lands in front of him, not causing much damage to the ground.
[A young girl?] Lucien is surprised by Fallen Angel's appearance. She is about 1.63 meters tall, with a thin and delicate body, long pale blond hair, turquoise blue eyes, a beautiful face, and a very young general appearance.
She is wearing a tiny black dress with white flounce and long black bands wrapped around her legs like socks. Also, she is not wearing shoes, and Lucien can see her delicate feet.
And of course, she has big black wings that come from the middle of her back. The black color of her feathers is not a beautiful natural black, but they look sick and rotting.Lucien can see that several parts of her wings have different amounts of feathers, and it is even possible to see holes in some parts. Also, he can feel that the smell that comes from her is not at all good.
Her deplorable state, plus her young appearance and sad expression, make him also feels sad for her and angry with the Gods. It is evident that she was very beautiful when she was healthy.
She quickly notices Lucien's expression and gets upset. "I don't need you to feel sorry for me! Also, don't look at me like I'm a child; I'm twelve hundred years old, so you're the child here."
Lucien can't help but laugh. "Even your voice is adorable and makes you look even younger."
The little Fallen Angel makes an angrier expression. "Did you call me here to humiliate me?"
He quickly shakes his head. "Of course not. Being adorable is a good thing; I usually just praise my beloved wives like that."
"I don't want your praises." She responds with a still upset expression.Lucien sighs. "Alright, alright... Anyway, your situation looks bad... Did my mom offer you help?"
The Fallen Angel makes a thoughtful expression, which makes her look even cuter. "That woman... I don't know if she is your mother, but you are exactly as she said you would be."
"Can you tell me more about her?" He quickly asks.
She shakes her head. "You know, I also don't remember anything about her but our deal."
"Can you tell me about that deal?" He asks.
She sighs and walks towards Daisy. "He's so annoying..."
Daisy smiles at the Fallen Angel. "It's been a while, my friend."
She makes a sorry expression. "Yes, and... I'm sorry for what happened to Rose... I..."
"Rose is doing very well. She found a man she loves very much, and he can help me too." Daisy responds.
The Fallen Angel makes a dubious expression. "I did as you asked, and I kept an eye on her... But when she was in danger near to him, I hesitated to protect her. I knew that archer would not kill her because her orders were only to incapacitate, so... I was really going to help her, but he acted first, and I didn't expect her to make the Blood Pact with him so quickly."
Daisy puts her hand on her shoulder. "It's really okay. Somehow, I understand that things had to be that way. Thanks for taking care of her."
She makes a sad expression. "Nothing is okay, my friend. That woman... she is very dangerous. It would be best if you didn't leave your daughter with him... He and his family are not good people."
"Good people?" Daisy laugh. "The good people never survive very long. I tried to be a good person and just suffered. I like the way he is and the way he does things. I know that, and he will not hesitate to cut off the head of anyone who looks hostilely at Rose, and so I know he can make her happy and keep her safe at the same time."
Lucien smiles because of Daisy's words. Then he sits down next to Donna again. "So, are you going to tell me about that deal?"
The Fallen Angel looks at him with an upset expression. "Why should I tell you anything? In fact, part of my deal with that woman is about me not interfering with your journey or interacting with you unless you are in real danger."
"I've been in pretty bad situations like in that mine... did you help me?" He asks.
"I was going to help you, okay? But you ended up not needing my help. Still, I left that bow in the mine so that your girls to find it." She responds.
Lucien is surprised to learn that his golden bow was a gift. "So you have been helping me in secret..."
She nods. "Of course. Or do you really think you're that lucky?"
He shakes his head. "I guess I'm not so lucky after all... We are all just pawns in her game."
The Fallen Angel shakes her head too. "Still, you're fortunate. I mean, I've been watching everything, and I can say that so many good women really love you. That woman can't manipulate those feelings."
"Yeah..." Lucien agrees with that, but then he looks at her with a curious expression. "You've been watching everything, haven't you? Apart from the things I do in the purple world, have you seen everything? I mean, have you seen me having sex with all my wives and troops?"
She blushes a little. "Ehh... that woman was very specific about me keeping an eye on you all the time. I can't risk failing on my mission."
Lucien makes a hostile expression. "You are lucky to be a woman, or I would kill you right now."
She remains flushed. "I know, okay?! Do you think I like watching you have sex??? But I was afraid some of your women would attack you in bed... I still don't trust that woman called Olivia..."
He sighs. "I'm going to forgive you because I know you had to do that to get help from that woman... hmmm... how is she really going to help you?"
The Fallen Angel realizes that Lucien thought of something, and that makes her curious. She doesn't want to give him much information, but she also wants to understand more about that mysterious woman. "She showed me a seed of life. Not an ordinary seed but the most powerful one I have ever seen. And I have seen seeds of Cosmic Realm people."
Lust quickly explains. "A seed of life is like a life crystal, but it is made by someone with high control over their life mana. Anyone with good control over their elemental affinity can make a magic seed of that element."
She continues. "Those seeds are also used as magical crystals; that is, they can be used to empower someone. However, the magic seeds also require a part of the vital energies of those who create them, and that is why people generally avoid making such seeds as that make their lives short."
Then Lust looks at Fallen Angel. "Did she give you the life seed?"
"Of course not." She responds. "She said she would only help me when he and his sisters returned safely to their homeworld. And if anything happened to them in this world, she would make me wish I was dead."
Lucien smiles as he thinks that his mother seems to be a fascinating person. He takes another apple from the apple tree and tosses it to the Fallen Angel.
She quickly picks up the apple, and he speaks. "No matter how we get here, we have the same goals and are on the same team, so we should cooperate."
"I just have to keep an eye on you, so I'm not going to cooperate with you." She responds before bites the apple, which is the most fragrant apple she has ever tasted.
Lucien smiles as he shakes his head. "You look like a smart woman, but you really aren't."
"The insults again? You are quite predictable." She responds while making an expression of disdain.
He makes a sorry expression. "I didn't mean to insult you but rather to open your eyes to what you don't want to see."
"Boring!" She rolls her eyes. "Say it right away, and I'll be watching you from afar as always."
Lucien looks at Daisy before looking at Fallen Angel again. "Daisy told me that your situation is similar to hers and that both of you may not have much time alive."
He quickly continues. "That mysterious woman gave you a mission in exchange for her help, but she gave you nothing to help you right now. Also, we believe that she said to Lust and her sisters for us to return to our world after ten years..."
"But you don't believe it anymore..." The Fallen Angel responds while reflecting on his words.
"Indeed." He responds. "However, I know that we are not yet ready to return. Even if that woman is not my mother and she still needs my help, I still need to get stronger and find a way to take my troops to my world."
He takes out of his storage ring that black feather he found. "In any case, time is running, and your situation is getting worse. That woman is smart enough to know that you could die before completing your mission just as she should have known that we would get strong quickly."
Lust makes a thoughtful expression while looking at Fallen Angel. "You should be at the Immortal Realm at your best, but what now? You look really bad, and you know that Lucien and Donna could kill you right now."
"That is..." Lucien comments. "That woman knew that you would be useful at first but would soon become expendable. And you still think she would come back here after all to give you the life seed?"
"Let alone the fact that the life seed alone may not be enough to save you. I mean, you would have a great source of life mana, but without the right skills, you wouldn't have good chances." Lust complements.
The Fallen Angel is very confused because Lucien and Lust's words make sense. But then she looks at Daisy. "I was going to take the life seed to Daisy, and she could save both of us."
The mature vampire smiles because she knows that the Fallen Angel is honest.
But Lucien shakes his head while making an expression of denial at the Fallen Angel. "Daisy is actually the best proof that you're wrong about that."
Then he explains. "That woman planned her coming here; she knew I would find her and needs her help with many things. Daisy is my mother-in-law, and I will do anything to help her."
"Now that Sophia is back, our life mana is very powerful, and we are going to help Daisy. But what about you? You are just an annoying person who peeks on my women and me. We shouldn't have sympathy for you, and you would rot in the shadows before that woman come back to give you the life seed." Lucien speaks in a cold tone.
The Fallen Angel makes an angry and then sad expression because Lucien's words make sense. She was so hopeful that she didn't see how wrong that deal looked.
"So... was everything a lie?" She thinks out loud.
Lucien shakes his head. "I don't think so. Think about it, did that woman say she would give you the life seed?"
She thinks. "She... she said she could help me and showed me the life seed..." Then the Fallen Angel realizes that something was wrong. "If she wouldn't give me the life seed, how would she help me?"
Lucien explains. "Daisy is the best example again. We will heal her so that woman probably knew that when we got strong, we would find out about you and help you too. The fact that this is all happening at the same time was probably planned by that woman as well."
The Fallen Angel makes an even more confused expression. "But... but... you said you shouldn't have any sympathy for me... I just peeked on you... why??"
"Did I mention that you are adorable?" He smiles as Donna rolls her eyes.
