While Scarlett, Olivia, and their group's went to Portgreen to try reducing the number of people Lucien will have to face, he kept looking at the walls while thinking about the best course of action.
Unlike his female troops, which were much stronger and could count on his boost, the male troops would take approximately four days or more to arrive.
Whether Lucien would wait for them or attack only with female troops would depend on the opportunities that appear.
He did not know how many adventurers Olivia could convince not to fight, but she has already made it clear that the chance of some adventurers fighting other adventurers is very low.
The situation with Scarlett is quite different since the mercenaries are more flexible. Some might join his fight against Ivan or maybe even against the other mercenaries. Of course, it all depends on Scarlett's success in persuading them.
In any case, Lucien's plan starts the same way, preparing his troops and wives in the best possible way.
He decided to help his wives that are very close to the Mortal Realm first. Because with Purple Worlds time dilation being 1.5x, which means 36 hours in Purple World equals 24 hours outside. Lucien assumed it wouldn't be too difficult, and helping them reach the Mortal Realm would certainly be a very enjoyable way to prepare for war.
Lucien prepared to check his troops camp before opening the portal to Purple World, but then he saw Cassidy looking at the city walls with a confused expression.
He approached her and hugged her from behind. ”Are you eager?”
Cassidy smiled as she felt Lucien's body warmth. She started to gently stroke his hands. ”Not really. I should be eager and excited as we are going to recover my crown…”
”My father worked so hard to build this city. Before him, this was just a port used by fishermen. So I always wanted to keep his legacy, keep the city growing, and Its people safe. But…”
Lucien started to stroke her head with his. ”So, what's the problem?”
Cassidy spoke honestly. ”I always cared about Mia in the first place, but the kingdom had a big space in my heart. Now that space has been completely filled by you and our family.”
”It's not that I didn't want to be a queen anymore, but I want to be the queen of our home much more than this small kingdom. I know this is selfish, but I can't help myself from not caring about the problems of others anymore and only care about ours.”
Lucien hugged Cassidy tighter as he laughed. ”If caring about the family before others is selfishness, I am happy to be the most selfish person in existence.”
He quickly continued. ”I will not treat my wives like dolls. I understand that you have your life beyond our family. Still, I can't deny that I would dislike you having occupations that could keep you away from me for a long time, like administering a kingdom.”
Lucien couldn't help but move his hands to Cassidy's big breasts. He never got tired of her superb sexy body.
”Don't worry too much about it. Now you are no longer a Queen alone. You have me, your King, to help you. We also have a large family that supports each other.”
”Let's clean up the mess in the kingdom that your father created, and before we go back to my world, let's find reliable people to take care of everything here.”
Cassidy felt very safe in Lucien's arms, and his confident words strengthened her own confidence.
”You are still so young, but you are already carrying the responsibility for so many wives... I should support you, but here I am, depending on you.”
Lucien held Cassidy gently by the chin and made her look at him as he kissed her. ”You support me more than I could ever ask for. You and the others are my strength, not only physically but also mentally.”
She accepted his kisses excitedly, and they continued to hug for a while. The other girls went to check the troops at the camp to give Lucien and Cassidy some time alone.
They did not take long before returning to the camp. Lucien ordered everyone to rest while some girls watched the area around the camp.
He also left Neola and Kylee in the camp for a couple of reasons. They are not very close to the Mortal Realm, and he needs some of his wives there to maintain mental communication.
Of course, he would give them a special boost later as well. But right now, he wants to focus on helping the girls who are about to enter the Mortal Realm.
He prepared to open the portal to the purple world but stopped when he heard someone calling him.
”Master...” A woman with long black hair and brown eyes, looking to be in her twenties, bowed respectfully to him.
Lucien approached her and stroked her face while putting part of her hair behind her ear, showing more of her pretty face. ”What do you need, Lorelai?”
Lorelai couldn't help but blush and smile. ”I'm delighted that you remember my name, Master.”
He smiled. ”You are one of my loyal troops, and you will be risking your life fighting by my side. Also, as a good master, I have to always keep my beautiful servants satisfied and happy.”
Lucien would not claim to remember the names of all his troops, but Lust is there to remind him whenever he forgot. Still, Lorelai, Ron's former spy, was the last addition to his troops, so Lucien remembered her well.
Lorelai couldn't contain her heart beating so fast. After having sex with Lucien alongside all of his female troops, she experienced the greatest pleasure she could imagine.
But unlike most of his troops who were very happy and satisfied being servants of their beloved Master, Lorelai is ambitious.
She tried so hard to join Lucien's group and would continue to doing her best to stand out among the others, hoping that one day her hard work allows her to become his wife just like Neola and Kylee did.
Lorelai spoke in a kind and respectful tone. ”Master... As a spy, I had to enter and leave the city stealthily, so I know entrances, hidden paths, bribable guards, and other helpful things about the city. So I can get new reports and information about the city if you need me to.”
