Chapter 39 - Chapter 39 : Getting thrown in Jail

Lucifer remained hanging from the tip of the spike, blood was trickling from off his hand and running from his mouth. Eve quickly rushed to his side and cut him down from off the spike.

"Basstard!"

Fenrir got so angry, she turned herself into her wolf form and released all of her aura. The giant guards came over and pointed their spears at the three of them.

"Lelania, what were you thinking bringing that despicable dragon's spawn into our kingdom?" Delva asked with a scorn.

"Thousands of years ago, that dragon attacked my people unprovoked and killed my brother. I despise that dragon and anything related to it!" Oden exclaimed.

Lelania couldn't believe what she was hearing. Suddenly she could feel a cold air from behind her. She looked around and saw Lucifer on his feet. He removed the spike from in his abdomen and the darkness regenerated the hole in his body instantly.

"Are you done talking?" He wondered.

Oden stood to his feet and He vanished and moments later Lucifer appeared under odens chin. With one kick to his chin oden was sent flying into the air and crashing back on his throne.

"Oden!" Delva called out.

Odens mouth was bleeding and he appeared weak to move. He opened his eyes and found Lucifer standing on his forehead. Lucifer's eyes was opened and the curse mark on his neck appeared.

"I don't care what grudges you have against me and I don't care if you're trying to kill me but you insult the man who saved my life, My father. You have to die," Lucifer declared maliciously.

"Husband, wait!"Lelania called out.

"Please don't kill him, do it for my sake," She pleaded with him and looking at his wife's face of desperation he decided to hold back.

The mark vanished and Lucifer closed his eyes once again. He leaped off odens body and landed before Lelania.

"I'm only doing that because you ask me to."

"Thank you."

"Guards, seize them!" Delva ordered.

"Delva you can't! "

"Yes I can, I'm Queen, that Husband of yours not only disrupted my kingdom he also attacked my husband..guard take them away," Delva ordered that Lucifer, Fenrir and Eve be taken into prison.

They were all placed in handcuffs and anklets that dampened their power.

"If you're going to take them then you'll have to take me as well," Lelania requested.

"Take her as well," Delva ordered.

The four of them were thrown into a small jail made for smaller prisoners. Lelania wrapped her tail around Lucifer and pull him closer to her. She placed her arm around him tightly.

"This is all my fault, I'm sorry Husband," Lelania apologized.

"You shouldn't apologize to Lelania, this was bound to have happened," Eve explained.

"So what do we do now?" Fenrir asked Lucifer.

"We wait," He responded.

In the meantime.

King Oden was made to sit on Delva's throne where he was provided with medical attention from a doctor

"Oden are you alright?"Delva asked in concern.

"Yes, I'm fine, I just feel a little pain, that's all."

"The hit you took hasn't caused any permanent damage, with rest you'll be fine my liege," The doctor informed.

'No permanent damage, Which means that boy held back a bit, why?' Odon wondered.

Suddenly the door opened and a girl walked in. She looked 16 years of age, had long pinkish red braided hair , blue eyes and a pink dress with a diagonal cut from her waist to her knees. She has two golden bracelets, anklets and a golden piercing under her bottom lip.

"Father, I got the news and rushed over as soon as possible."

The girl checked her father to see if he was alright.

"Yes I'm fine Pressila," He reassured her.

"What happened?"

"Lelania's Husband did this to me?!"

"Lelania Husband?! But who could have defeated you father, that sounds impossible."

"It can't be impossible, That boy is the son of the dragon who killed your uncle, Indura the Black Dragon," Delva explained.

"Are you sure?!"

"Positive, His aura and power are identical to the black dragon, However Lelania seems to deeply trust him," Oden explained

Inside the prison cell.

All four sat close together when they heard footsteps coming towards their cell. Lelania got up and slithers towards the gate.

"Queen Lelania, King Oden and Queen Delva have summoned you," The guard informed

"Okay..Husband, they have called for me."

Lucifer nods to Lelania then she leaned over to Lucifer small body , held his face and gave him a kiss on his lips.

"Don't worry Husband, I'll straighten all this out for you I promise," Lelania reassured him.

Lucifer nods to Lelania and walked away.

"Good luck out there," Fenrir said as she gave a thumbs up.

After Lelania left the prison cell the door closed again. As she went with the guards her expression became serious. The door to the throne room opened and she slithers up to the King, the Queen and the princess who sits on the three thrones.

"King Oden, You're making a huge mistake here," Lelania stated.

"No mistake, I'm well within my rights as king to throw him in prison. However I'll give you a chance to plea his case," He responded

"There is nothing to complain about, Lucifer is a great man."

"I think love has blinded you to the fact that he's the son of that despicable dragon," Delva said with a huff.

"To be in love with such a man then you can call me blind. Lucifer has done something that none of you would be able to achieve. He came to my people rescue when none of you would and He was willing to fight an army of 80,000 lizardmen to protect my people," Lelania informed.

"80,000?! "

Pressila was surprised by that number.

"I can't believe it," Delva shuddered.

"Lucifer not only fought an army but also made the two races come to a mutual agreement. Now the lizardmen and the Lamias are allies. You all sit here and judge him because he is the son of the black dragon Indura but you don't know half his story. Did you know Lucifer was one of the heroes summoned to this world? " Lelania wondered.

"A summoned Hero?"

"That can be right, why would the son of Indura be chosen as a hero?" Oden asked in bewilderment.

"That's because Lucifer was human before he became Indura's son," Lelania said. She looked at the three giants and they seemed to be confused by what she meant. "It seems that you don't understand, so let me explain what happened."
