Lust Knight

Chapter 222 Girls“ Power

In the center of the northern forest of the western continent is one of the largest cities in the world of Argerim, Viset, the heart of the Alliance.

Viset was created by the bear clan’s patriarch when his Clan was at its peak hundreds of years ago. His goal was to create a place for the clans to meet and discuss issues about the entire Alliance.

Over the years, the clans began to create their own buildings in Viset, and soon what was just a place to meet became a big city, divided into sections, each one belonging to a clan.

Thus, the families that led each Clan kept half of their members in their clan territory and the other half in Viset. The patriarchs of each Clan are always traveling from their clan territory to Viset to keep everything in order.

But there is always a patriarch chosen to lead everyone else as the Alliance’s general leader. Although that person has no real control over the other clans, the other patriarchs chose to follow their orders when dealing with the Alliance as a whole Kingdom and not specific matters for each Clan.

The general patriarch selection process is not really a choice. Every ten years, the clans create a great battle, and the people under 40 who are favorites of each Clan can fight for the right to be the general leader.

Then the winner of the battle stands in front of the ancient elders, a group formed by the wisest and oldest members of each Clan to find out if they accept them as a leader or if another combat with new members is necessary.

As the great combat is always brutal and very difficult because it involves the best members of each Clan, the winner is always someone who stands out because of their strength, intelligence, and skills.

The winners of that fight have always been accepted as leaders by the elders. Still, if the person used dirty means to win or is hated by the general population, the elders can request another fight.

That fight is called the succession battle. And it is not just the Alliance leadership that is decided by combat but almost everything else like trials and disputes.

Although hierarchies are respected in the Alliance, what people respected most is power. That is why families have always trained their members since childhood so they can be mighty warriors and have a good life.

So everyone’s focus is always on the younger generations and not on the older people who supposedly had already reached what people call the body’s limit.

That is the limitation of an inferior world. People have no knowledge, powerful techniques, and resources like mystic crystals to reach the Mortal Realm.

Still, there are few very talented people who reach what everyone believed to be the SSS-rank that was actually the early stage of the Mortal Realm, but they never lived long enough to reach the second layer of the Mortal Realm.

Although it seems easy for Lucien to cross the Mortal Realm layers, it requires a huge increase in power, which is very difficult to achieve for normal people who do not have the help of Bloody rose or his incredible demonic energy.

Thus, even with the increase in lifespan, the people of Argerim can’t go beyond the first layer of the Mortal Realm.

Still, they can live almost double the amount of years when they reach the Mortal Realm. For example, if a race with low power normally live 100 years, they can live up to 140 years when they reach the top of the Zero Realm, which is the SS-rank for Argerim’s people.

And for that person of the same race to reach the first layer of the Mortal Realm, they will need a massive increase in power, which will allow them to live up to 190 years.

So the increase in lifespan will be even more significant when people reach another layer and Realms. In the case of that same race, people could live up to 250 years when reaching the second layer of the Mortal Realm, and 320 in the third.

That shows how incredible Lucien’s methods are since, in a few weeks, he went through the first layer of the Mortal Realm to the second while even very talented people from Argerim never managed to do that in the 40 years they got from reaching the Mortal Realm.

Lucien’s father took three years to go from the first layer of the Mortal Realm to the second, but besides being from a rich family from a medium world, he had incredible treasures.

It took Lucien’s sisters less than a year to accomplish the same goal, but they had the help of Bloody rose in addition to all of the resources their father could give them.

Of course, the Bloody rose was affecting them more and more by making their power increase much faster, and also they now have the contract with the Sins, which makes their power improvements really insanely fast.

But for the people of Argerim, everything is very difficult, so the people of the Alliance always trained very hard.

And so any improvement in power is a victory for them, especially the younger generation that is always competing to show the fruits of their hard work.

Right now, it is possible to hear the enthusiastic shouts and applause for a vast part of the great city of Viset. The noises came from the great arena where there is a great competition going on.

Although it is not the succession battle, almost half the city is watching the combat between the young generation of the clans.

That fight is not a fight to the death like the battle of succession and also does not have the favorites of each Clan, but the other main young people besides the favorites.

Although they are not favorites, these young people are incredible. This year there are not only outstanding young people from the Manticore-clan and Werewolf-clan but also excellent people from the Bear-clan, Fox-clan, and Cat-clan.

Although the elves joined the Alliance many years ago, their Clan remains isolated in the far north of the continent. They have an area of ​​the city of Viset and participated in the main meetings of the clans, but they do not participate in secondary events, which most of the time are fight shows and do not participate in the succession battle as well.

But that doesn’t stop the elves from watching the incredible battles in the Viset’s arena, just like anyone else.

The city of Viset is much larger than Portgreen city, and there is also a big difference in architecture as each Clan built their buildings in their style, which is always very archaic.

Of course, the arena is visible for several miles as it was made to accommodate up to one hundred thousand people at the same time as well as still having much more space for the competitors to face each other in different ways in battles against groups of opponents and mystic beasts.

While one of the secondary children of the werewolf clan’s patriarch faced a young fox-girl in the middle of the arena, people applaud in the stands, and the clans patriarchs watched the show from their boxes.

It was normal for powerful people in the Alliance, especially the patriarchs of clans, to have many children to increase the chance of having powerful children.

And although the boy fighting in the arena is one of the secondary children of the patriarch werewolf and not one of his favorites, the patriarch is not happy to see the fox-girl beat him.

The werewolf patriarch is a big man with a height of 2.20 meters tall, a dark-red and super resistant coat. He is about 80 years old and reached the first layer of the Mortal Realm a few years ago. But of course, he believed that it was the SSS-rank because he didn’t know about the Realms of Chaos.

While he had an upset expression watching the fight, the manticore patriarch beside him had a provocative smile on his face.

The manticore patriarch is a little smaller than his main rival, but he is still very big, with a height of 2.16 meters tall. He has a light brown coat and large wings on his back.

"Your boy is taking a nice beating, Rein." Lanzo, the manticore patriarch, spoke in a mocking tone.

Rein’s expression became even more upset as he answered. "Do you think this is good? If it were one of your boys, it would be okay, but the problem is that he is being beaten up by a girl, and she is from the fox-clan. This is bad."

Lanzo shook his head. "Well, the fox-clan has to remain a clan of servants, but what’s the problem with some of them starting to get famous? Isn’t the solution simple? You just need to **** some fox-women and make more hybrid bastards like you seem to like doing."

Rein for a second thought about the daughter he never saw, but he shook his head to forget that thought as he responded to Lanzo.

"Do you think it will be that easy now? Things are changing, Lanzo. Don’t you see that? The new generation of bear-clan is incredible. They want to take back the glory of their Clan, and their ideas about equality between the clans are very popular among other young people."

Before Lanzo answered, Rein continued. "It’s not just the bear-clan, but strong people have been appearing even in the cat-clan. Also, I heard rumors that there is even a fox-girl with two tails."

"A fox-girl with two tails? That must be a false rumor." Lanzo replied.

Rein shook his head with a concerned look on his face. "Maybe it’s just a rumor, but what if it’s true? Many years ago, there was a fox-woman with two tails, and she led the Alliance for thirty years."

Lanzo couldn’t help but be a little worried. "Okay, I’m going to send my spies to find out if that rumor is false or not."

Rein sighed. "Do you think I am stupid? I already sent spies to check, but the problem is that you are always trying to fuck me over and steal the Alliance leadership from my hands. If we don’t work together, both of us are going to fall."

Lanzo realized that the situation is more complicated than he thought. He never expected Rein to openly ask for his help. Both are very proud, but now Lanzo knew that they had to unite or the status of their clans as most powerful could be taken by other clans.

As Rein and Lenzo talked, the fox-clan matriarch, alongside the bear-clan and cat-clan patriarchs, smiled proudly at her daughter fighting in the arena.

Elsie was the name of the beautiful fox-girl who has some similarities with Anne. At just 19 years old, the girl is giving a beating to the big 32-year-old werewolf-man.

Although both are S-rank, Elsie could have defeated her opponent since the battel started because of her incredible agility, but she preferred to humiliate her opponent, who is known for mistreating girls from the fox-clan.

Then with one last incredible kick, Elsie knocked the werewolf-man to the ground, winning the battle and making the whole arena applaud her strength and beauty.

While Rein smashed the table next to him out of anger, Lanzo smiled. "Don’t worry, my friend, I’m going to send one of my boys to give this fox-girl proper punishment."

Lanzo quickly sent one of his favorite sons, in fact, the second strongest, to face the fox-girl who asked for more opponents in the center of the arena.

The favorite young people did not participate in battles against many others who were younger and weaker than them because they had no challenge, and in the end, there is no glory for people who defeated opponents much weaker than them.

But no rule prevented anyone from facing another in the arena. Of course, the people started to boo and complain when they saw the big man of 2.06 meters tall and 38 years old enter the arena to face the young little fox-girl.

The manticore-man is SS-rank, and everyone would understand if the fox-girl refused to fight, and because she is smart, she quickly started to leave the arena’s center.

Then the manticore-man scoffed. "So the fox-girl runs into her mother’s arms when she faces a real opponent and not weak dogs."

Elsie really wanted to stay and fight, but she knew that facing someone so much older and stronger than she is would only result in her Clan being humiliated even more, so she continued walking with her head held high as she had overcome all opponents with the same level of power as her.

But the manticore-man knew that he had to hurt the fox-girl, so he ran towards her. "Do you think you can get away now?"

The fox-clan matriarch was very concerned about her daughter, but she could not just jump into the arena and attack a member of the younger generation, because it will cause her big problems.

In those tense few seconds, everyone wondered what would happen...

As Elsie turned to face her enemy, the ground started to shake; in fact, everything started to shake like a large-scale earthquake.

Before everyone wondered what caused that earthquake, they heard a deep voice echoing everywhere.

The tone of the voice was calm despite the intensity of the sound waves generated by those words containing so much power that it resulted in the whole city of Viset shaking.

"Men really are disgusting creatures."
