Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 1064  I Want To Stay Like This A Little Longer

Lux found himself being hugged by two beautiful ladies the moment he opened his eyes.

This wasn't the first time he had experienced something like this since his lovers would often do this to him, especially Iris and Cai.

However, this time, it was different.

A young lady with pink hair was hugging him on his left, while a beautiful elf was hugging him on his right.

As Lux tried to recall how he ended up in this situation, he remembered that after he ordered Asmodeus to handle the aftermath of the King's execution, Adeline had asked if she could sleep beside him that night.

Perhaps, knowing that his biological mother didn't want to be alone after killing King Yvar, Lux agreed to her request.

But he didn't expect Aurora to sneak into his bed as well.

Of course, he had no complaints.

However, he wished that the two ladies didn't hug him so tightly like he was a hug pillow that he couldn't even break free from their hold.

A sigh escaped Lux's lips as he decided to stay put for a while until one of the ladies beside him woke up. 

He could already imagine his biological father, Vincent, complaining like mad if he were to see his wife hugging a man aside from him, even if Lux was his own son.

While waiting for the two girls to wake up, Lux received a message from his other lovers, asking him how things turned out in the Fynn Kingdom.

Due to the difference in time zones, Valerie, Aurelia, Ali, and Ari were the only ones awake at the moment.

"How is mother-in-law?" Valerie asked. "Is she taking things well?"

The Dragon Princess had already started calling Adeline "mother-in-law", which made the Half-Elf smile.

Of course, Ali and Ari jumped on the mother-in-law bandwagon as well, making him feel ticklish inside.

"Lux, make sure to let mother-in-law visit your Guild Headquarters after you are finished with your business in the Fynn Kingdom," Aurelia said. "I want to meet her too."

"I will also try to sneak away from the Palace in order to meet her!" Valerie stated. "Ali, Ari, you need to help me make this happen, so we can meet our mother-in-law."

"Don't worry, Valerie," Ari replied. "We'll meet her no matter what."

"… The two of you, just don't do anything reckless, okay?" Ali commented. "We should also think of what gifts to give our mother-in-law when we see her."

Lux smiled after hearing Ali's thoughtful comment.

'As expected of My Ali,' Lux thought. 'She is the voice of reason in their group.'

Although the Half-Elf had recognized Adeline as his mother, Lux would still not change his feelings for Ali, who had first shown him unconditional trust and love. 

The beautiful handmaiden had very strong maternal instincts, allowing the Half-Elf to enjoy the care that he hadn't felt in either of his lifetimes. 

He was also looking forward to how Adeline would react after meeting his lovers, which should be happening very soon.

But, before that, he planned to let the beautiful Elf meet his grandma first.

Vera was the one who raised Lux since he was a baby, and he was certain that Adeline would want to hear stories about him growing up.

He owed so much to his grandma, who had picked him up from the river and saved him from the Giant Crocodiles who almost ate him as a snack.

Perhaps, hearing the ladies talk inside her head, Aurora's eyes fluttered open, and looked around her in a daze.

When her gaze landed on Lux, she didn't hesitate to kiss his cheek, despite still being half-asleep.

"Good morning, sleepyhead," Lux said before kissing his lover's forehead. 

Aurora smiled before hugging her lover once more, which made the Half-Elf blink his eyes in confusion.

He was hoping that either Aurora or Adeline would wake up so that he could finally get out of bed, but it seemed that the pink-haired beauty wanted to stay in the bed for a bit longer.

"Fifteen more minutes," Aurora said through their Guild Chat as she hugged Lux happily. "I want to stay like this a little longer."

Valerie, Aurelia, Ali, and Ari who heard Aurora's words couldn't help but shake their heads helplessly.

They knew that their soon-to-be sister was still a maiden, and all of them were wondering why Lux still hadn't embraced her yet.

"Aurora, what is mother-in-law like?" Ari asked.

"She's kind, caring, sweet, and beautiful," Aurora replied. "Also, she's currently hugging Lux beside me. I'll be honest. If she stood side by side with us, she wouldn't look out of place with how young she looks."

"I want to meet her soon," Ari commented. "Oh. Before I forget, can you ask her later what kind of food she likes eating? I plan to cook her something good."

"Understood," Aurora replied.

Lux, on the other hand, arched an eyebrow. "You can cook?"

"Well, I'm not as good as Ali, but I can do it if I try," Ari replied. "Did you forget? I cooked soup for you after we made love."

"Right." Lux nodded. "That was good. I think my mother would like that."

"Really? Then I'll make some when we visit you in the Guild Headquarters to meet our mother-in-law."

"Mmm. I look forward to it."

Half an hour later, Adeline finally woke up, and Lux could now stretch his body after being hugged all night.

After washing their faces, they all went down to the dining hall to eat.

Asmodeus was already there, waiting for them, and gave his Master a brief report on what he had arranged for the Fynn Kingdom. Lux listened as he handled his personal matters.

"The one who will be taking over the throne will be Princess Camilia," Asmodeus stated. "She just turned seventeen, but I believe that she will be a good Steward for this Kingdom. It will be best if we leave Scarlet and Sid to guard her. 

"I will also ask a few Succubi, who know how to manage a territory, to assist her. As long as they are around her, we won't have to worry about outside forces trying to seduce her to betray you, Master."

Lux nodded. "Great work, Asmodeus. I will meet with Camilia later. After that, I will be going back to Wildgarde Stronghold with Mother and Aurora. I will leave you here for the time being to finalize things."

"Understood." Asmodeus nodded. 

An hour later, Lux met Camilia in the throne room and told her to manage the Kingdom as a proper Steward. The Half-Elf promised her that if she did a good job while he was away, he would permanently make her the Prime Minister of his Kingdom, giving her power second only to him.

Princess Camilia nodded her head in understanding. "I will not betray your trust, Cousin."

"I hope so," Lux replied. "Because you should already know what I might do to you if you betray me."

Despite successfully keeping the calm expression on her face from breaking, Princess Camilia wasn't able to stop her body from shuddering after hearing Lux's subtle threat.

She had seen how the Half-Elf had dealt with her father and those who had been close to the latter, so she clearly understood that betraying Lux was a very stupid thing to do.

The only way out for her and her family was to obey him and ensure that the Fynn Kingdom would prosper under her management.

Seeing that the Princess understood what he wanted from her, the Half-Elf nodded his head in satisfaction.

He liked how Princess Camilia carried herself, so he was more assured that his Family's Kingdom was in good hands. 

After that short meeting, Lux took Aurora and Adeline back to Solais so that the beautiful Elf could meet his Grandma.

Little did he know that Emperor Andreas of the Vahan Empire was feeling very anxious about the possibility that the Half-Elf would attack his Empire.

Emperor Andreas knew that he had treated the Half-Elf badly in the past, and he was certain that Lux carried a grudge against him.

This was why when his spies mentioned that the red-headed teenager had left the Fynn Kingdom to return to Solais, the Emperor was finally able to sigh in relief.

However, he couldn't risk the possibility that the Half-Elf would point his sword in his direction, so the Emperor called for an emergency meeting.

He gathered his ministers and trusted advisors in order to talk about the gifts that they would send to the Fynn Kingdom as a way to appease the Half-Elf for the scheme that he had devised against Lux in the past.
