Chapter 237 - A minute in Hell

Although it is evident to everyone that Dawn believes in Lucien's words, or at least part of them, and is disappointed not only with her generals but with herself, Lucien still wants to make everything clear.

Lucien has no sympathy for Dawn, but he understands that Amelia likes her, so he should not kill her as he will do with all the damn racists of the Light Empire.

"He is lying!! I have never seen this animal in my life!!!" The general, who is still bleeding on the ground, can't help but keep trying to save his life.

While hearing the general calling his cute Madelyn an animal, Lucien becomes even more furious, but he tries to stay calm.

In fact, since he knew about the effects of the bloody rose in his body, Lucien fears he is not in control of his own emotions.

Well, no one, even under any side effects, can really control all their emotions. But Lucien feels responsible for all his women, and for them to always be safe, he has to be perfect. All his actions have to be smart and well thought out, taking into consideration anything that can influence them.

And after analyzing all this situation, Lucien concludes that it is time to punish that general, and as a bonus, open Dawn's eyes.

Lucien walks over to the general and looks at him with a disgusted expression. "Don't you get tired of this shitty performance?"

Everyone there understands what Lucien is talking about. All generals are people at the peak of the SS-rank, meaning they are very strong and robust people. Lucien's attack, although might, did not cause such a critical wound in the man's head, and he is just screaming with fear and because of the pain, which is undoubtedly intense.

The general notice Lucien in front of him and quickly starts to crawl backward. "GO BACK, MONSTER!!! Somebody, please help me!! Get this devil away from me!!!

Lucien starts to laugh. "Are you going to start crawling now? It certainly suits a worm like you."

The man uses all his strength to try to get up and run.

But Lucien will not let him escape his wrath.

Again, a part of Lucien's body turns into a blur as no one there can even follow with their eyes his ridiculous speed. This time is his leg.

*Crack*

Lucien stomps on the general's shin, smashing part of his greave and breaking his bones, making a loud sound, followed by the general's agonized screams.

"AAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAHHHH!!!" The man cries with all his lungs capability.

While his screams are music to Lucien's ears, the other generals and even the troops more than two hundred meters from them are sorry for the man.

Meanwhile, Dawn doesn't really know what she is feeling. She is having the most influential crisis of her life while everything she believes turns in the same state as that general's shin, that is, completely ruined.

But Amelia can't help smiling, as do Lucien's wives and troops. The soldiers of the Light Empire have already done too much harm in this world, and now, receiving Lucien's wrath is more than right. It is perfect.

Madelyn feels a little guilty because she is actually feeling good about this situation. But she doesn't feel good about that man's suffering, but because while Lucien is extremely kind and loving to her, he is actually a real devil to people like that general.

And there is no way to be afraid when the person who creates the fear in everyone else is her kind husband.

As the general screams and cries tears of blood on the ground, Lucien smiles sinisterly. "Oh, look what happened to your leg. We have to do something about it."

*Creack*

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHSSSHITTT!!!!!" The man screams again until he is hoarse while Lucien smashes his other shin.

"Yes, now they are more symmetrical." Lucien mocks as he lifts the man by the collar of his plate armor.

As Lucien raises the man's weak and injured body, his shins sway like a puppet's legs, totally out of his control.

Despite the brutal scene, no one looks away from them.

Lucien tries to make the general look in his eyes, but the man is too scared and tries to look around.

But Lucien shakes his body, forcing him to look at him. "Look at me, your piece of subhuman garbage! Look into the eyes of the husband of the innocent girl you dared to hurt."

"It wasn't me!!! Damn, I don't know what you're talking about!!! I don't know her!! You are wrong!!!!!" The man cries and tries to create lies to save his life.

Lucien sighs as he looks into the general's watery eyes. "Tsk... I will give you a chance to tell the truth now. Say it, and I will give you a quick death."

"..." The general is very confused without knowing what to do. His whole body hurts like hell, and part of him really wants to die just to stop this pain and not have to see Lucien's face anymore.

Still, anyone like him, who has had a good life, full of pleasures and comforts, when facing death, fears it more than anything and clings to any chance of keep living.

So, despite the general's mind wanting to say, "Yes, it was me. Now kill me quickly," It wasn't those words that his mouth spoke.

"It wasn't me!!! You hav-!" The general tries to lie again, but before finishing his words, he finds himself flying backward as he hears more creack sounds inside his head after receiving another blow from
