One hour ago.

Inside a large chic room, two men drank wine while talking and laughing. There were also some servants in the room serving them other drinks and food.

"So, Prince Duane... You know my offer is a blessing for your little kingdom." The man in the shining armor spoke confidently.

Duane looked at the Light Empire captain and smiled. He had already made his decision, but he also wanted to get other benefits.

"Captain, you have to understand that it is not so simple for me to do what you are asking me to do. Even if Portgreen is not helping us, it is still difficult to revolt against them while we have no guarantee that your Light Empire will really support us."

The captain drank some more wine before smiling at Duane. "I understand that, but you have my word that we will protect you, and your Kingdom will have a special position once Portgreen's territory is added to the Light Empire."

"I believe you... But if you also left some soldiers and gold now, it would help me get ready sooner." Duane was not an experienced negotiator, but he knew how to request.

The captain was ordered by the King to secure loyalty from the minor Kingdoms closer to Portgreen's borders so he could use gold or soldiers for negotiations. "Yes, yes, we can come to a better agreement for both."

"Yes, of course, we will reach an agreem-" Duane couldn't finish his words when he heard the door being slammed open and making a loud thud.

A beautiful young lady with blue hair and blue clothes came in looking furious. "You damn disgusting prince! Do you plan to ally with the Light Empire? Even after promising my father that our kingdoms would help each other?"

"Blue hair and spirit of an angry bee? She must be Angela Olsen's daughter. Duane, you didn't tell me you had a Bluewind princess here." The captain of the Light Empire was a messenger who prepared himself well for his mission, so he knew the nobility of the small Kingdoms.

"Lena, you are the worst wife a man could ever want to have! Got back to your fucking room before I beat the shit out of you right here in front of Captain!!"

Duane got up and walked furiously towards Lena. He had wanted to beat her for a long time, but now that they would be teaming up with very powerful people, he didn't need to fear Bluewind anymore.

"You are a despicable piece of garbage!!! I can't believe I was crazy enough to accepted this marriage... But I will not allow you to betray my father!!" Lena couldn't believe that Duane would even ally with the people of the Light Empire. She started to prepare her ice magic, ready to attack.

"Guards!! Fire an arrow at this crazy woman! But don't kill her because I still need to have my fun." As soon as Duane spoke, guards entered the room from all sides. First, the guards at the door only let Lena in because she was Duane's fiancee.

"Wait, Duane! I can use her to coerce the Bluewin Kingdom. You can get better whores elsewhere." Of course, the Light Empire captain would want to use Lena to force the King of Bluewind to ally with them without having to use the same method he used with Duane.

Lena was even more furious and was about to cast an ice bolt at Duane, but she also knew that fighting the guards would be her end. She hesitates for a second, and it was long enough for Duane's mother to enter the room.

"Stop this madness, Lena! Let's talk. I'm sure Duane can still forgive you, and no one is going to hurt you or your family."

Lena knew she couldn't fight so many people, even though she was a talented wizard. She also knew that the Light Empire captain and Duane would do terrible things to her. If Zora could protect her for a little longer, it would be the best way to escape from them. She didn't think twice and got behind the Queen.

"Mother? Do you continue to protect her even when she is clearly hostile to us?" Duane was very angry with his mother for meddling in his affairs, and not letting him rule as he wanted.

"She is your fiancée! You have to treat her well or else she wouldn't want to marry you, idiot!" Zora did not wait for Duane to respond and left the room with Lena. The guards did not stop them as the Queen still had a lot of power and influence in the Kingdom even after the King's death.

Duane looked at the captain with a regretful look. "I'm sorry about that. My mom is complicated, but I'll talk to her later, and we can use that bitch to screw Bluewind."

"I'm sure you will, Prince Duane. Now let's drink and talk more." The captain saw that the prince did not have complete control over the Kingdom and began to think of better ways to follow his plans while lifting his mug and making a fake smile.

"Yes, let's drink! I will also send someone to bring dancers to brighten up our night." Duane sent some of his guards to bring girls while he talked to the captain again. He was still very curious about the famous Light Envoy.

Now.

"What?!" Lucien's women understood the plan since he had communicated with them mentally, but the rest of the group was very confused. Scarlett didn't know how to act as she was taken by surprise by Lucien's quick movement.

Lucien had heard the guards talking about someone going to bring dancers to please the captain of the Light Empire forces while he was talking to Prince Duane. So he thought about pretending to be that person to enter the castle, but Lucien didn't expect a stupid problem.

"She is a demi-human. Don't the Light Empire people hate demi-humans?" The guard couldn't deny that Scarlett was beautiful, and it was also possible to see that she had a sexy body even through her clothes. Still, he couldn't help but suspect.

Lucien began to curse the people of the Light Empire in his mind. He didn't understand how they could have problems with demi-humans.

He would be willing to caress Scarlett's beautiful fluffy ears for days if she weren't the leader of the mercenaries who attacked her beloved Cassidy.

But the truth was still indisputable, she is an incredibly beautiful sexy woman, and the prejudice to demi-humans did not make sense.

"Well, we brought a lot of variety so that he can choose." Lucien asked for Maggie's help, and she quickly removed her hood.

The guards did not doubt that they were the dancers as Maggie is beautiful and has a sexy body. Still, the group had a tigress, and the guard made an interrogative face while looking at Oya.

"She is a good big cat." Lucien didn't think twice and threw a gold coin at the guard. Gold coins were precious to simple people like guards, so the man didn't create any more problems, allowing Lucien to enter the castle with his group of "dancers."

As soon as the group entered the hall, they were greeted by many servants. It was almost dawn, but the castle was very busy as if there was a big party going on.

"Are you the dancers? Why the tigress??!?! Anyway, just go up the stairs, the prince is waiting." One of the servants pointed to a room on the second floor while telling Lucien and his group to go quickly.

Lucien was using his powerful hearing to understand everything that was happening at the castle. Two things caught his attention.

First, it was the conversation of two women, where one who sounded older was telling the other that she should not worry because they would take care of each other as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

The younger woman didn't seem happy at all and was actually complaining about how she didn't want to marry the "stinky prince" after he ally with the Light Empire.

Lucien thought that the younger woman should be Lena as that stubborn tone reminded him of Marie and Angela.

But the second thing he heard was definitely surprising. Lucien heard a man ask another how a woman could have white eyes.

Lucien didn't know much about this world, but he knew that white eyes anywhere should be very rare. Still, he knew someone with beautiful white eyes, and there was a chance that she was in this world.

He gave instructions on how to find Lena to Rose and Maggie. Maggie could use her vision magic to see through the walls so they would have no difficulty.

While the girls moved discreetly to the east side of the castle, Lucien headed towards the room where the prince was to maintain the performance of dancers. It was also there where Lucien heard about the white-eyed woman.

After climbing the stairs and walking towards a corridor, the group could see a room with large ornate doors. Several guards were defending the door, so entering without making a mess would be challenging.

Lucien was more concerned about the untrustworthy people in his group than with the guards, so he looked at Olvia and Mason as he spoke seriously. " I don't think I need to remind you about becoming tigress food. Do not create any problem!"

Olivia made a face at Lucien while Mason just nodded in fear. The rest of the group prepared their weapons and concentrated on following any further orders from Lucien.

"You don't really need to kill them, but I don't mind if you do... Now!" Lucien gave the command before turning into a blur while running at super-speed towards the guards.

There were six guards at the door. Two of them were pierced by a single attack from Lucien's katana, which went through a guard in the chest and injured the other enough to cause both of them to fall.

Oya jumped on a guard while the girls dealt with the other guards. Lucien saw Ghilanna's crystal arrows hitting targets with precision and can't help but smile. All were killed or knocked out quickly, making as little noise as possible.

Lucien was very curious about the person he heard, so he quickly entered the room. Inside there were about five guards and five servants.

He acted quickly as a shadow attacking the servants. He avoided killing women as they activated his kind nature, the servants were knocked out by him while the guards were either knocked out or killed by the girls. Mason was unable to do anything as he is really very slow.

"What?!?!" Duane and the captain were very drunk, so before they understand anything, they were the only ones in the room conscious or alive, beside Lucien's group.

"Wh-" Duane tried to question again, but before finishing a word, he saw Lucien's boot in front of his face. He was thrown on the wall and then fell to the floor while bleeding from his mouth. The kick was strong enough to make him pass out after a second.

Lucien grabbed the captain by the neck and slammed his head against the table, breaking a glass bottle with his face. The man started screaming in pain as shards of glass entered one of his eyes, making a bloody mess while he heard Lucien's diabolical voice.

"I would like to ask a few questions... If you don't mind answering quickly and with all possible honesty, I can give you a quick death... Otherwise, I can see other bottles around the room."

The captain has never been so scared before. Lucien appeared out of nowhere like the devil's shadow and was torturing him before asking questions. That was insanity, but he tried his best to make it clear that he would answer anything.

"Okay, okay, I'll answer anything. Just loosen your grip on my neck please or you will kill me before you can get any information." The captain thought he could negotiate even in this situation, but he did not know that Lucien had no mercy. At least with men.

Lucien threw the captain to the ground with another thud followed by the cracking sound of his bones breaking. "I am the only one making requests here."

Most people would think that Lucien was acting insanely brutal, but they didn't completely understand what was going on.

They had no way of knowing that Astrid was furious because she understood the Light Empire's hate against demi-humans well. But Lucien could feel it as his connection to the sexy manticore-woman was growing stronger.

No one could see the fear that Ghilanna felt when she saw the Light Empire army outside the city. No one could see Scarlett's anger when the guard talked about her being unworthy to please the captain. But Lucien saw it all. So yes, he was very angry at the Light Empire's people and would give them hell whenever he could.
