Chapter 657: Not only this time

Chapter 238 - Not only this time

As the general's head rolls on the ground, Dawn panics. If her generals and her soldiers are like that... Maybe she doesn't really know her people.

The Light God would never tolerate such acts of cruelty, so if she, as the leader of those soldiers, is allowing them to be so wicked, the heavenly fury will come at them, and innocent people among her people can suffer the consequences as well.

[No!! I cannot allow my people to suffer because of my soldiers' evil cations and my stupidness!] Dawn begins to blame herself mentally.

Dawn does not realize that while her mind is in a mess and her feelings are in chaos, she is staring at Lucien, and he is looking at her too.

She starts to think out loud while staring at Lucien. "You... you are the devil... if I kill you, I can fix that... yes, the Light God will certainly spare my people if I give him your head."

Dawn forgets everything she saw Lucien do as is blinded by the hope that her people will not suffer the heaven punishment because of the transgressions of her soldiers.

She runs towards Lucien with her fists raised in a very stupid way, ignoring the shiny sword is in her belt.

"DAMNED DEVIL!! It's all your fault!!!!" Dawn screams words that even she doesn't believe in.

Dawn's movements are too slow for Lucien's super senses, but he doesn't move or react. He understands that she is just a desperate woman with a broken heart.

*Bam* *Bam* *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

"You! You!! You!!!" Dawn begins to punch Lucien in the chest without realizing that she is not using even a small part of her great strength from someone in the first layer of the Mortal Realm.

While the other generals fear Lucien's wrath, his wives can't help feeling pity for Dawn.

Dawn starts to cry as she punches Lucien in the chest, "Why?!?! What did I do wrong?!?!"

Among everyone there, the person who is most feeling sorry for Dawn is Amelia. Amelia always knew that Dawn is deceiving herself with her father's false faith. Still, Amelia not only did not open Dawn's eyes but encouraged her blind faith.

When Amelia arrived in this world, she could have clarified everything by saying that she was not the envoy that the Ligh King claimed, but to achieve her own goals, Amelia manipulated Dawn even more, using her faith.

Amelia is not hypocritical enough to say that she would do that differently if she could go back in time. She, like Lucien, will do anything for their family.

But after spending so much time together, Amelia discovered that Dawn is a good and kind woman. Amelia still had doubts if she could really call Dawn a friend, and now, seeing her crying in despair and punching Lucien, Amelia realizes that she already considers Dawn to be her friend and can't help feeling sorry for being part of the reasons that broke her heart.

Lucien doesn't know what to do as Dawn continues to cry and hit him. She is clearly hurting her hand more than his chest.

He can't help wanting just to hug the poor and desperate woman even though she is the only one to blame for being so blind and stupid.

But although his personality makes him feel sad for broken women like Dawn, he understands that she is the enemy of most of his wives, especially the demi-human.

Also, Dawn's father killed the Sage King, Cassidy's father. And that is the kind of thing that cannot be ignored. Lucien forces his arms not to hug Dawn. That would be really unfair to his beloved Queen and the other girls.

But before moving away from Dawn, Lucien looks at Amelia. Although they don't have a soul connection, it's quite easy for Lucien to realize that Amelia is very sad because of Dawn's situation.

Lucien knows well what it is like not to have friends; after all, he and his sisters had the same childhood. Lucien feels very lucky to have met L.u.s.t and his other wives as they are his friends as well as his loved ones.

He already thought that Amelia considers Dawn as a friend, but now he has confirmation of that, and he can't help but be happy and sad. Happy that his sister found a friend who is not a manipulative bitch like Envy, and sad that they are in this strange situation right now.

Amelia doesn't know how to help Dawn right now. The truth will only hurt her more. And when confused, Amelia can only think of asking Lucien for help.

Envy also notices Amelia's sadness and advises her mentally. 'Just look at his wife. They are always with smiles on their faces... If there is anyone who can help Dawn, it is Lucien.'

Amelia's expression changes from sad to pleading, shocking Lucien to the soul. The stubborn and crazy Amelia is so sad that she gives up all her pride to beg Lucien for help.

Lucien feels like it becomes more and more difficult not to hug and comfort Dawn. The tears streaming down her face in pain appeal to all the empathy he has.

He really wants not only to help the sorrow Dawn but also to help his sister keep the first friend she made in her life. If he wants to become stronger by cooperating with her, it is good that she is happy, and a true friend can help her adapt to his wives.

Still, Lucien will not do anything harmful to his wives. That's why he looks at them, looking for their opinion about that.

Dawn is really very famous. Perhaps the most famous woman on the west continent. So everyone tells a lot of stories about her. And nobody has ever heard of her committing crimes or any act of cruelty.

Indeed she is a warrior who has already killed many people, but always in fair battles against the Alliance's demi-humans who want to fight the Light Empire as well.

Knowing that, Madelyn has no negative feelings towards Dawn. Maybe she was afraid of her as many people, but now, all Madelyn sees is a poor woman with a broken heart. A victim like her.

Lucien looks at Madelyn, asking her opinion, and she kindly smiles at him. Without the need for words, Lucien understands that Madelyn is not against him helping Dawn.

Then Lucien looks at his other wives, especially the demi-humans. Anne, Astrid, Scarlett, and the others; all them nod at him because they understand that Dawn is not an evil person.

Well, in addition to being understanding, Lucien's wives are also very smart, and everyone has the same concern: Getting along with Amelia.

So, all of them can see that accepting that Lucien helps Dawn will not hurt them but will make them get Amelia's sympathy.

Last but not least, Lucien looks at Angela and Cassidy. He cannot deny that despite the opinion of all his wives matter, he has greater respect for his Queens, not for their royal title, but because they are wise and kind women who have a significant influence on other girls.

Angela not only nods to Lucien but also talks to him mentally. 'She is just a victim of her own ignorance. All her people are like that, and probably her parents raised her that way. I don't think the girls are going to hold a grudge against her even if you bring her to our family.'

Lucien smiles as he answers her. 'You are very kind, my sweetheart. I won't always be able to act like that, but I think Dawn will be better as a friend than an enemy.'

Then he looks at Cassidy and quickly speaks to her. 'I will not do that if you are going to feel any, even the slightest discomfort with her, my dear.'

Cassidy honestly responds. 'I will not blame her for the mistakes of her soldiers or her father. I am not such a small woman.'

Lucien smiles at Cassidy. 'Of course, you are not like that, my love. You are my noble, brave, and fair Queen. Still, no one will judge you for not wanting her in our house.'

Despite being excited to fight, Cassidy can't help wanting to jump off the floating platform and kiss Lucien. 'I really appreciate your consideration of my opinion, hubby. But it's really okay.'

Having all his wives accepted that, Lucien has no reason not to hug the desperate Dawn, who continues to cry and punch him.

Dawn is totally out of control. She can't stop blaming herself for being so blind while trying to find a way to blame Lucien as well. But in the end, he has nothing to do with the Light Empire and its people. She doesn't even really know him.

She starts to cry even more and tries to take a step back, but then she feels warm arms embrace her body.

"Huh?" Dawn looks up with her face in tears and sees Lucien smiling tenderly at her.

Dawn's first reaction is to try to get away from him. "YOU... No... You are the devil!"

Lucien doesn't force Dawn against his body but gently keeps his hands on her waist. "Yes, I am the devil."

"So... this... you are evil... I... N..." Dawn is very confused. Her broken heart and her emotions out in control that prevents her from thinking clearly.

Lucien smiles at her and uses one of his hands to wipe away the tears that keep coming out of Dawn's eyes like an infinite waterfall.

"Yes, I am evil... to everyone that means any danger for my loved ones. Still, you are not my enemy. I want to take care of you, Dawn."

Dawn is very shocked to find out about this caring side of Lucien. He looks nothing like the brutal devil who just tortured that general.

A small part of Dawn still wants to get away from Lucien out of fear, but she is very confused, sad, desperate for any emotional support.

And Lucien's hug is so comfortable... His fingers are drying his tears so gently... He's so powerful, confident…

In her entire life, Dawn has never received affection. Since she was a child, his father fills her with responsibilities. She has always worked very hard to keep her people happy and protected. All she did in this shitty life was to fight, fight, and fight... Only to find out that she was risking her life in battles for damn child torturers.

But now, at that age, after discovering all that shit, someone is offering warm arms for her to cry in... not just someone, but the devil himself.

[But is he really evil, even though he is the devil?] Dawn couldn't help wondering as she reflects on everything she saw.

She saw a poor demi-human girl who suffered so much in the hands of her light soldiers, looking at Lucien with confidence, knowing that he protects her from all evil.

Dawn saw the Light Envoy herself give way to that devil to give what that damned general deserved.

The more Dawn thinks about everything that is happening, the more she gets confused. Nothing else makes sense. Then she looks up again at the devil's handsome and gentle face.

She sees Lucien smiling tenderly at her as he says in a very affectionate tone. "Just let me take care of you, Dawn. Only now, just a little."

Dawn's mind can no longer reason, but her mouth says what her heart's desire. "Only this time... just a little..."

Then Lucien hugs Dawn tightly, filling her heart with warmth and pushing away all the sad emotions she's feeling.

She doesn't stop crying but starts to cry, even more, wetting Lucien's entire chest with her tears while hugging his waist tightly.

Amelia smiles as she watches Lucien help her first friend. But she also can't help being jealous, which she tries to put aside, only this time... just a little.
