As soon as Mia fainted from the shock, Aurethia emerged from her shadow and immediately caught Mia before she could fall. She gently laid Mia down on the nearby bed and then vanished back into the shadows.
Meanwhile, what Jeff had revealed could no longer remain hidden, and slowly the incident spread throughout the entire ducal home.
But Lucifer was still in deep sleep beside Amelia and had no idea what was happening downstairs in the hall.
If Lucifer wanted, he could have known every single detail using his extraordinary senses—what didn't he possess?
The ability to hear sounds from miles away, the power to see things from miles away… he could know everything happening around him. But if he did that constantly, he wouldn't remain a normal human being. That's why he deliberately kept his extraordinary senses deactivated and only used them when necessary. And why would he ever need to use them inside his own home?
The events that had just taken place in the hall downstairs had still not reached Lucifer's ears when Aurethia appeared in his penthouse room and woke him up.
Lucifer's previous night had been extremely colorful… He had engaged in wild, bed-breaking sex with his mommy Mia, aunt Ruby, sister Amelia, his 'dear Wess', his wives including Veronica, Misty, Trainy, Daisy, Silva, Selene, Isolde, Allen's second wife 'Vinni', Uncle Jeff's second wife 'Jenna', and Jasper's wives and daughters.
Now, finding Aurethia beside him, Lucifer caught hold of her hand, pulled her toward himself, held her in his loving arms, and asked her mischievously…
"So today Aurethia suddenly remembered me?"
Aurethia replied, "Honey… I always remember you. But you're the one who never calls me out from the shadow world."
Lucifer said… "So you think I need to call you?"
"Don't the rights my mother, aunt, sister, and my other wives have over me… don't my other shadow wives and my shadowborn daughters have the same rights over me?"
After saying this, Lucifer pulled his cock out of his elder sister Amelia—who was sleeping beside him—turned over, faced Aurethia, and began kissing her.
Slurp… Muah… Slurp… Slurp… Kiss… Muah…
But just as Lucifer started building the mood, Aurethia stopped him from kissing further and said…
"Honey… I would love it even more if you spent time with me, my sisters, and my daughters… But right now, I came to tell you something…"
Lucifer, while massaging Aurethia's breasts over her gown, asked…
"What is it, Aurethia…?"
Aurethia replied, "Honey… Mother Mia has fainted."
The moment these words reached Lucifer's ears, all his sleepiness, lust, and desire vanished instantly. He sat up abruptly and asked Aurethia again in shock…
"What happened to Mom?"
Aurethia said… "Honey, I was in the shadow world… so I don't know much, but Mother fainted."
Hearing this, Lucifer—who had been lying naked between Amelia and Aurethia—immediately stood up and disappeared. In reality, he didn't disappear… but his speed was so incredible that it seemed as if he had vanished—one moment he was there, and the next he was gone in the blink of an eye.
The news of Mia's fainting was like a painful shock to Lucifer. Hearing it, he rushed downstairs toward the hall completely naked—just as he had been lying beside Amelia—without bothering to wear any clothes. Anyway, wearing clothes was optional for him… Most people in Serendity town had already seen Lucifer completely naked, and in Sinflare Augustiland, being naked wasn't considered wrong—it was normal.
As soon as Lucifer entered the hall downstairs, he saw everyone sitting there in complete silence.
Westeria was sitting beside Mia, gently stroking her head. On the other side, Ruby was rubbing Jeff's back and trying various remedies to stop his vomiting.
Silva, Selene, and Veronica were sitting on Mia's other side, while head maid Misty and Uncle Borris were giving instructions to the other workers for cleaning.
Jasper was sitting on the daybed with his wives and daughters, talking about something. Jason and Allen stood behind the daybed in fully attentive positions.
The moment everyone saw Lucifer enter the hall, an atmosphere of dread filled the entire place.
Though Lucifer loved all his wives equally… there was still an unspoken rule that all his wives were aware of: no one could ever take the place of Mia, Amelia, Ruby, and Westeria.
And Lucifer's love for Mia was boundless… He could do anything for his mommy Mia. So the fact that Lucifer had come to the fainted Mia… naturally filled everyone—even if just a little—with fear.
Everyone knew Lucifer's love and wanted to experience it—whether men or women, it didn't matter.
But everyone also knew Lucifer's anger… except perhaps Jasper's wives… and no one wanted to experience that anger.
As soon as he entered the hall, Lucifer didn't look at anyone else. He went straight to Mia's bed, looked at Westeria, and asked…
"Westeria… what happened to Mommy?"
The moment Lucifer used Westeria's full name, it was clear—he was beyond serious.
It was worth noting that Lucifer usually called her affectionately "my dear Wess"… but today, at this moment… "Westeria"… meant it was best not to provoke his anger.
Westeria looked at Lucifer and said… "Young Master… Mother Mia is fine. She just fainted and is now resting. There's no need to worry."
Lucifer stared at Westeria and said, "Whether there's reason to worry or not… I'll see for myself."
Then he looked at Allen and said…
"Allen… why did Mommy faint?
Is she unwell?
Is she feeling weak?
What exactly happened?
Tell me every detail."
The moment Lucifer said this, Allen didn't delay even for a second. He narrated everything that had happened in Evorywood—everything Jasper and Jeff had told him—but he did not mention the part about Rotveil and the fetus.
After hearing Allen, Lucifer looked at Westeria and said…
"Wess… Allen is hiding something… Mommy wouldn't faint just from that. And yes, all these things are disgusting, but not to the extent that Uncle Jeff would start vomiting… So can you tell me?"
Hearing Lucifer, Westeria said… "Master… please forgive me… I cannot say it… I would rather die than speak those words."
Lucifer looked at Westeria, saw her grim and tearful face, nodded, then turned to Jasper and said in a very regal tone…
"Minister of Justice… Mr. Jeff, you tell me—what is it?"
Jasper immediately came forward, knelt before Lucifer, and said…
"Master… in Evorywood, Christopher told me and Sir Jeff that Rotveil took your daughter 'Seren's' fetus from Christopher and Sarah… and used it for his dinner. And Christopher also said that Sarah is now pregnant with his seed."
The moment he heard this, Lucifer's eyes turned blood-red with rage, and blood tears began streaming from them.
His bloodlust became so terrifying that a bloodish-black aura started gathering around his entire body.
So much bloodlust… so much anger… so much pain… such thirst for blood… it was enough to terrify anyone to death.
Jasper, who was kneeling in front of Lucifer, didn't even have the courage to lift his head and look at him.
Due to Lucifer's rage… even the temperature in the hall began to rise. But Lucifer controlled his anger because the people sitting here were not at fault. Moreover, he valued and cared for them—he didn't want to harm any of them… Yet his anger had reached its peak. He looked at Westeria and said…
"Take care of Mom."
Then he summoned all his shadow daughters and shadow wives from his shadow and ordered…
"Oswald, Aleric, Cesar, Baldwin, Elspeth, Rowena, Agnes, Matilda, Elenor… and everyone else… bring everyone back to the duchy… Go right now, immediately."
As soon as Lucifer gave the command, all his shadow wives and daughters dispersed to bring everyone back to the duchy.
Then he turned to Allen and said…
"Tell the Viper guards to go to Valmare town, bring Artemis and Vance here… The final time has come for the city of Morthveil, Pope Rotveil, and all his followers."
