Chapter 656: A Compensation

Damien raised one of his brows as he realized how a lot of things suddenly made sense. He always wondered why someone as powerful as Ruthren was taking a backseat all this time when it came to Lily.

"An ethereal contract? An oath that binds our ethereal cores to our words? Something that will destroy our ethereal cores if we betray our own words….Why…Why grandpa…Why did you never tell me that you did something so severe? I had no idea Ruthren forced you into something like that," Lilly now realized why someone so powerful and evil like Ruthren was holding back for all these years.

It was not that he wanted to respect the idea of a tournament and let the best man win. It was because he had to if he wanted to open the gate.

Marvin stepped forward and held Lily's shoulders as he looked at her, "Lily…I am your guardian and family as well. Some things are or were better left unknown. You were already feeling regret and guilt about so many things, and I didn't want you to feel more guilty when you really shouldn't. This was my choice, and I would have still done it again. At that time, I had no idea Ruthren was planning to open the gates within a couple of years. But even if I did, I didn't think that the other two emperors would risk everything they had by opening gates to hell. That is why at that time, other than feeling ashamed of losing our empire's most valuable treasure, I never felt too much regret about it."

Lily softly smiled as she gave a hug to Marvin, "It's fine, grandpa. If it were not for you protecting me, I…I wouldn't dare to imagine how things would have turned out…I would not have even come across Damien. So…even if things go wrong…I don't want grandpa to blame yourself."

"Lily is right, Marvin. You don't have to feel bad about what happened. Ruthren is rotten to the core. An upright man like you did the best you could at that time," Elor said with a comforting gaze as he patted Marvin's back.

"Thank you, you two. I am feeling better already," Marvin said with a smile.

"Yuria…Let's go and pay the Lancaster Emperor a visit. We have to tell him the truth and make him understand that there is no need to worry about the continent dying off anytime soon," Damien said as he grabbed Yuria's hand.

"Of course. I will send a message to my father as well to put in a word as well," Yuria said with a smile.

"Wait, you two. Is this even safe? Damien, you aren't even that close to the Lancaster Emperor. What if he traps you and gives you up to Ruthren?" Reva asked as her eyebrows drew together. She always had her heart unsettled whenever she saw Damien going on risky missions, especially where she couldn't see him.

She would have suggested going along with him, but she didn't know if Damien would like it and if one more person would draw more attention. She didn't forget how a continent-wide manhunt was still going on.

"Yes, Reva is right. Is there any chance we can do it without meeting face to face? The situation right now is very delicate," Lily said as she pulled on the ends of her hair.

Damien and Yuria glanced at each other with a subtle smile before Damien said, "Then you two should definitely come along if that would make you two rest easy. Also, just to reassure everyone here, Yuria's father will set up a secret meeting between the Lancaster Emperor and us. Yuria's father will call off the whole thing if he feels something is off. Plus, Yuria said that Maximus and his father did try to help her out during the convention. So I am willing to bet that the Lancaster Emperor will listen to reason. We anyway have to do this before Ruthren comes out."

Damien continued in a lowered voice, "Also…tomorrow is our wedding. I don't want anything to cancel that. We all want and need it."

"Damien…" All his three women looked at him with a gaze of love, feeling moved by how considerate and loving he was.

The three were thinking of proposing to Damien about postponing the wedding due to the recent developments. But now, seeing how firmly fixed on his decision he was, they got rid of that thought.

"Good, good. With you three accompanying you, at least they wouldn't be running around here with that worried look on their faces. You should have seen how these three when you were out getting rid of the filth, haha," Elor said with a light laugh, making the three girls feel abashed.

After ending their discussion, Damien called his women to their camp and looked at them as he said apologetically, "I am sorry that I have not been spending time with you three much for the past month."

"Please, Damien. You know there is no need to apologize for this. We understand, and we would never ask you anything that would put you or others in danger," Yuria said with a firm nod.

"Yes. We have been busy cultivating and helping around as well," Reva said with steady eye contact.

"That's right. Even if you are our man, we all have responsibilities. Plus, tomorrow is enough as compensation," Lily said with a pure smile.

Damien softly chuckled while feeling happy, seeing how understanding they were. He was actually holding back a lot to take care of things. Otherwise, he may not have even left the bed with these three heavenly beauties in his arms.

"Guess what, tomorrow, after our wedding, how about we have a foursome?" Damien asked with a simple smile, to which Yuria immediately gave a thumbs up with sparkling eyes, "Of course! I am up for it. It should be fun. What about you two?"

However, there was only pin-drop silence from Reva and Lily; their expressions stumped as a faint blush began to cover their faces spontaneously.

"I-I…can't…"

"Isn't…it a bit too much?"
