Chapter 689

Author's note: First of all, I would like to apologize for the long absence. I'm finally back and daily updates are back with me. I've had a few personal problems and now that they're solved, I can focus back on this story.

***

Arthur's merciless and instant actions didn't surprise Lucy, who broke into a knowing smile as she saw the now incinerated bodies of the adventurers get blown away by the turbulent and hot wind.

Considering that Arthur was currently amnesiac, it's his first murder, from his point of view, however, he didn't show any reaction and proceeded to shift his attention toward the incoming large beast right after throwing a cursory glance at Lucy, who winked at him and crossed her arms.

Facing the grotesque beast charging in his direction, Arthur attempted to use his Space Magic but the result was more devastating than he had thought. He pinched the air with his thumb and index and caused the space to shatter and a fountain of blood to appear.

The unsuspecting parasite was momentarily startled and about to be blown away but nothing too dangerous happened to him as Lucy, like a ghost, appeared behind him and wrapped her arm around his waist before slowly backing away from the blast.

He tried to struggle, at first, but it was but a futile try as he couldn't match her monstrous Strength. Everything ended so quickly but the ruckus he caused was large enough to alert the relatively far town and, in no time, several high-leveled Adventurers would definitely show up.

"Let go!"

Arthur wriggled his body and 'managed' to break free from Lucy's arm. He glared at her for a couple of seconds before transforming into a bolt of lightning and leaving the area.

The same day, late at night, Lucy was maintaining her silence but frowning as she looked at her husband, who was laying on the bed, his body slightly twitching. Makaze was letting inaudible cries and flashing with an ominous dark light, making the White Specter perplexed.

Though it hasn't been long since he 'met' Lucy, Arthur quickly grew accustomed to her persistent presence and continued to act as if she wasn't here. He had laid on the bed and wanted to rest as he felt a bit tired, mentally, that is.

This and his trembling body made Lucy confused about his situation. He barely used any Mental Power and with his infinite Stamina, he shouldn't feel exhaustion so the current situation was illogical. His amnesia shouldn't have affected his stats or strong mental state.

The parasite tried to fall asleep but, in the end, the silver-haired woman standing next to his bed like an immovable mountain did get on his nerves.

For a short while, everything was eerily silent and even a bit awkward but the atmosphere drastically changed when Arthur jumped out of his bed and attacked her.

He mustered all of his strength and pushed her against the wall, one hand on her throat and the other pressing on her shoulder, trying to immobilize her.

Lucy was so deep in thought that she only reacted after she was caught but breaking free was an easy thing to do, nonetheless, she didn't do anything and only stared back at his cold eyes.

"What are you? What do you want from me?"

In response, a mesmerizing smile blossomed on the woman's face.

"Can't I just join your adventure? I'm sure you'll need the presence of a woman… sometimes."

Right after saying that, an unstoppable force pushed Arthur's hands away and, before he was able to retreat or react, Lucy retaliated. Her two arms stretched forward, interlocking behind his neck and pulling him towards her.

The parasite's pupils constricted as the woman planted her lips on his but it only lasted for two seconds before he pushed her away, his expression worsening with every passing second.

He was about to say something else but was unable to as a head-splitting pain assaulted him, forcing him to stagger back a few steps. Vivid images flashed in his mind, making the man let out a groan before staring at the wall for an inordinate amount of time.

When clarity returned to his dazed eyes, he stared back at Lucy, who was still smiling at him.

"I know you cannot trust me but that's not what I'm telling you to do."

She took a few steps forward, stopping right before the silent parasite. Her finger touched his chest before gently going all the way to his chin.

"Use me. I'm very powerful and… I can have many other uses."

She pushed the unresponsive Arthur on the bed before mounting him. This was but the beginning of the pretty active night the two experienced. Lucy pretty much forced herself on him and did all sorts of things to provoke his sexual desires, causing him to finally succumb and unleash his repressed desires.

****

The next morning, Arthur woke up from the comfortable sleep and the first thing he saw was a half-naked Lucy in the midst of wearing a sexy red bed robe. He instantly remembered the events of last night and felt a bit regretful over losing control.

Noticing the man's gaze, Lucy turned around, smirked and confidently said,

"If you're still unsure, we can form a slave contract. That way, you'll be certain that I won't betray you."

Arthur remained silent for a bit before replying,

"Fine, let us do that."

As if she expected such an answer, Lucy retrieved a white slave collar from her ring along with a written contract. She calmly handed it to Arthur, who thoroughly read it before the two proceeded to do it.

He was a bit nervous as he thought she'll try something or hesitate but the woman accepted all the conditions he mentioned and showed no objection whatsoever, though this only raised his suspicions.

Only when the contract was finalized did he let out a sigh of relief. As for Lucy, she used simple Magic to hide the collar before giggling and nonchalantly sitting on his lap, causing him to furrow his brows.

"What? Are you still adamant about refusing my love even after I became your slave?"

Arthur clicked his tongue and proceeded to ask all sorts of questions, after all, as his slave, Lucy cannot lie to her master. However, the answers she gave him were the same as the ones from before, meaning that she never lied or hid anything from him.

She told him how they first met and how they're a married couple but the absence of the memories made Arthur unsure about the truth even after hearing it.

The same day, at noon, Arthur and Lucy left the town for good and headed East, where there have been sightings of unidentified and hostile machines. Unlike Arthur's attitude yesterday, he changed his goal and wanted to learn about his masked past and what happened after he died on Earth, though his relationship with Lucy was still shaky and not built on mutual trust yet.

*****

Meanwhile, inside a gloomy room which had nary furniture and was illuminated by a few torches with either green or purple flames. A youth was sitting on a rusty metallic chair and unlike his usual appearance, he wasn't wearing the jet black armor and, instead, he had a simple white shirt and long brown leather pants.

Leiu leaned on the chair and let out a long sigh, his mind preoccupied with many things. On a small table right next to him, there stood a small creature, half black and half white.

The Watched, Bilgart, flapped his wings before turning his head toward the silent youth. The crow gazed at Leiu for a very long time before speaking with a deep voice,

"She really is an exceptional woman but, will she be able to do it?"

Leiu snickered and retorted, "What makes you think she won't?"

"You and I know very well why she won't follow the same path. Were Arthur to regain his memories through falling a love with her a second time, it'll only trigger the rest of the following events, however good or bad they are. Knowing the unfavorable future that awaits her lover, will she really go through with it or opt for a safer way to save him?"

"That's the thing about Love, Watcher. It makes people do the unthinkable and… never mind."

Leiu let out a sigh, slowly got up, and exited the room, leaving the two-colored crow alone. As he saw the vanishing back of the Nameless Knight, Bilgart flapped its wings one last time before disappearing while leaving behind a couple of words that were heard but none but himself.

"What will happen when Love and Brotherhood clash? I wonder…"
