Lust Knight



The furious roar of that mighty Kraken echoes for miles, causing thousands of Mermaids and Nagas to tremble in fear; the creature appears to be in great pain and anger, which certainly precedes a violent reaction.

When the colorful glow generated by Lucien and his girls' joint attacks fades, everyone can see him atop that Kraken's deformed head.

His body is covered with blood and pieces of the creature, and he continues to attack it brutally, but the Kraken's body continues to regenerate faster than he can damage it.

"HAAAAAAA!!!" Lucien's body glows with purple and gold energies as he slices through the Kraken's flesh with his naginata; his two katanas also hunt the creature on their own due to the power he achieved by opening the soul gate of Sloth in his own soul.

Lust also joins him in the attack, followed by Amelia, Envy, Claire, Greed, Naomi, Gluttony, and Saria. Even the Mermaids near them help the group by attacking different parts of that Kraken.

But the creature's power proves to be more and more impressive as it continues to regenerate. In fact, the Sins notice that this Kraken is not only using the dark energy of the other Kraken dead on the battlefield to heal itself but also to get stronger.

"We have to end this before the monster gets too stronger!" Lust talks while using her whip to cut the Kraken's tentacles; Her power is so high due to Lucien that it makes Greed and Gluttony very jealous, to Envy's delight.

"But nothing is working!!" Saria comments as she fears that the creature will hurt her friends.

"We need more power..." Lucien thinks aloud. No matter how hard he tries, his attacks aren't enough, and even the help from the girls around him doesn't seem to be enough to defeat that Kraken's regeneration.

When he thinks about asking for help, the first person that comes to his mind is Eve; she and Pride are already very powerful on their own, and the respect of all those Mermaids empowers them even more.

But Eve and Pride are currently facing a Kraken, which, while not as powerful as that one, is also giving the Mermaid Army a lot of trouble; if he leaves them now, many Mermaids may die.

Lucien doesn't have time to think, so he quickly turns to the second person who could help them in that situation. It's Nea; she has already proven that her power is closer to the Cosmic Realm than the Immortal Realm by killing a Kraken alone in a single attack.

But Nea is in the same situation as Eve; in fact, she is fighting two Krakens along with a battalion of Mermaids, so if Lucien asks her for help, those Mermaids won't resist even for a minute.

[Damn!!] No matter where Lucien looks, everyone who could help is busy fighting the Krakens that seem not to stop coming out of the portals.

But then he sees a peculiar figure, someone who could help and is finishing her enemy right now. Lucien has a very specific reason for not wanting to ask that person for help, and he would never blame her if she denied it.

Yet, due to the seriousness of the situation, he holds back his feeling and tries to call out to her. Due to how noisy the battlefield is, shouting doesn't seem efficient, so he takes his red katana and channels the fire energy he gained from Maggie on it.

Then he raises his katana and points Its blade toward the sky, launching a ray of fire towards the sky. That ray becomes a massive red flame that can be seen from miles away, and in less than two seconds, he receives an answer.

*SCREEEEEEE*

The great and majestic firebird flies above him, Maya, of course. Her big burning eyes focus on the Kraken before turning to Lucien, and her voice echoes magically. "Did you call me?"

"I need your help!" Lucien speaks frankly while cutting that Kraken's tentacles alongside his girls.

Maya can't help but be happy due to Lucien's request for help. She clearly doesn't want him to be in such a situation, but it's nice to feel like she can repay him for saving her adopted granddaughter.

So she wastes no time before starting to attack the Kraken, first by casting her powerful flames over the creature.

*SHOOOOOOOOO*

The flames of a phoenix are something that cannot be limited even by the Power Realms; they burn everything they touch, and the Kraken again roars in pain as its limbs are burned and melted.

However, again, the creature's regeneration proves unstoppable, which shocks Maya. "This monster is too powerful!!"

"But it's not indestructible!" Lucien comments. "We need an attack powerful enough to kill this creature before it can heal."

"A big attack?" Maya's eyes get brighter as she thinks about something. "Tell everyone to stay away!"

Lucien quickly orders the Mermaids to stay as far away from that Kraken as possible and also tells his girls to back off a bit. Then he talks to Maya. "We must not underestimate this creature; we will attack with you."

"*SCREEEEE*" She makes a loud, proud sound. "This is going to be dangerous! I don't want to end up hurting one of us."

'Could she make such a destructive attack?' Lucien can't help but mentally ask Lust. He doesn't doubt Maya's word, but he doesn't think she is that powerful either.

'I don't know.' Lust answers honestly. 'I don't think her power is greater than Nea's, but we are in a world where there is water energy everywhere, and Maya is a being made literally of fire...'

Lucien understands that the Blue Star's powerful water energy is a potent limitation to Maya's powers; he also understands why she can't simply go thousands of miles deep in such a cold ocean to save her adopted daughter without losing her powers.

But he also didn't see her do anything impressive as she fought, so he comments that to Lust. 'Could be her really holding back that much for fear of hurting her allies?'

'Maybe...' Lust says. 'She seems to hate violence more than Marie, so she may be holding back her powers for fear that they are too destructive.'

Lucien shares the same opinion as Lust, so he tells his girls to stay further away and Naomi to be prepared to protect them.

But he continues to fight the Kraken alongside Maya. "I'll attack with you; don't worry, I can teleport away before your attack hits me."

"Are you sure?" Maya asks. "I would hate to end up hurting you..."

Lucien can't see through Maya's feelings, but she seems such an honest person that it's hard to imagine her lying about that.

Then he smiles at her. "Let's do it before this monster gets stronger!"

Maya nods at Lucien while mentally wondering if he's too brave or too foolish. "You attack first; I'll prepare my attack, and when I reach close enough, you leave."

"Okay!" He responds while using his full speed from him to keep the Kraken busy. The other Sins also stay with him for a while, but they can't keep alongside him as their hosts get three miles away, so only Lust remains..

As Lucien and the Lust do their best to attack the Kraken, Maya flies high and beyond the clouds; then, she stops five miles away from them before looking back.

At that distance, she can barely see the battlefield due to the black clouds, but she went there just so the sunlight could touch every part of her body.

She opens her long-burning wings and lets the sunlight touch them; next, she starts channeling her fire mana, and the feathers that cover her body get brighter and brighter.

Then a special glow passes through her eyes and she flaps her wings, rushing down like a meteor in the sky; Her flames are seen by everyone on the battlefield, and even Lucien's eyes are drawn to the Phoenix's beauty.

"So beautiful..." Lucien thinks aloud before attacking the Kraken with all his energies again, this time consuming most of them.

The creature roars loudly again as it begins to regenerate, but before its body is completely healed, Maya approaches it. The glow of her flames is so bright and hot that even the people several miles away instinctively look away from her.

There is no one else within three miles of them, and only Lucien is still looking at Maya from that distance; he just can't look away from such a beautiful creature, and he can see the silhouette of a little girl inside the big firebird.

"So powerful... so majestic... and yet so delicate." He thinks aloud as Maya's flames begin to destroy his energy armor.

Lucien is very tough due to his powerful bloodlines, but his skin starts to burn when Maya is a mile away. Yet, he endures that pain only to look at her for another second before finally teleporting away.

Even the Kraken recognizes that Maya's flames are too powerful, and the creature's murderous instincts are overcome by the desire to live.

The Kraken tries to dive deep into the ocean to escape the Phoenix, but the water evaporates hundreds of meters away from Maya, and she hits the creature like a meteor.

*BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!*

A massive explosion ensues, sending waves of fire over three miles away, but the Sins act quickly together with Naomi and Jeanne to protect everyone from such destructive flames.

No one hears another roar from the Kraken, and they know the creature is dead.
