Chapter 43 - Chapter 43: Arriving At The Beach

The waves crashed against the cliff, the seagulls flew through the air. Lucifer and the others stood on the beach looking out at the sea.

"So this is the ocean, I've never seen it before," Lelania stated.

'We made it to the sea but what now? We have no ship, Lelania is coldblooded, Eve can't breathe underwater, Pressila and Fenrir can't swim. We are already one week behind schedule,' Lucifer thought to himself.

"Lucifer, so how are we going to get to the bottom of the ocean?" Fenrir queried.

"We'll have to build a submarine," Lucifer responded.

"What's a submarine?" Pressila wondered

"It's a submersible ship that's able to dive at incredible depths and can withstand strong pressure," Lucifer explained.

"Huh?"

Lucifer looked at the four female with him and they seem to be confused by the what he just said.

"Is it a ship that's able to dive underwater," he explained more clearly.

"Oooh!"

They finally understood what he was saying and he sighed loudly.

"With the material we have, we shouldn't be able to make one."

Lucifer summoned blackjack and 7000 of his dark lizardmen.

"What are those?" Pressila queried.

"This is my army, Pressila can't you make anything using earth manipulation?"

"Uhm yes."

"Then I'm going to need your help."

With the help of Pressila Lucifer cleared out a large area where she built a workshop for him. She made a different hand sign then clasped her hands together.

"Enclosed!" she shouted and a box rose out of the ground. It was far larger than a ship hanger.

"Will it be okay?" Pressila wondered

"Yes."

After getting prepared, Lucifer looked at the blueprint of the ship he's planning to build.

"Okay this is good enough, let's get to work."

Then with the help of his dark undeads Lucifer began to use his dark flames to melt the body of the golems. While he was working, Fenrir and the others remained on the beach basking in the sun in swimsuit

"This is so relaxing."

"I agree, I do hope Husband can join us."

"So tell me the story, how did you guys meet Lucifer and how did each of you fall in love with him? Pressila queried. "Since fenrir was the first, you can tell us."

"It's nothing special, It was right after Lucifer left the cave his father was sealed in. He ended up saving my brother from a group of slave masters. I ended up attacking Lucifer thinking that he was the one who turned my brother Into a slave."

"Whaat?!"

" Yeah it's true, of course I got the crap beaten out of me...My brother was killed later that night by the members of my pack and in his last moments he told me to go on adventures with Lucifer."

"Is that the promise that you're talking about?" Lelania wondered

"Yes it is."

"What about you eve?" Pressila queried.

"Mine is not that special, I guess I met the master and became intrigued by his aura of a dragon and after finding out that he's the son of our god. I decided to follow him."

"For me, it was simple love at first sight, from the moment I saw him I knew he was the one for me." Lelania said.

"So all of you met him differently but how did you all fell in love with him?" Pressila wondered.

"We just did," Lelania responded.

"Yeah I'm still trying to figure out why" Fenrir agreed

"So all of you have your own reasons why you feel in love with him. I wish I had someone I could be in love with "

"Why don't you become Lucifer's wife?" Lelania suggested

"Who me, I would never, you're my best friend," Pressila denied it embarrassingly

While they were basking on the beach Lucifer continued to work.

"My Lord, thanks to the undeads the frame of the ship is almost complete. At this rate we'll be finished in a day or two," Black Jack reported

"Have the other teams started to work on the engine and the propellants?"

"Yes my lord."

Suddenly there was a crashing sound below. A core of one of the golems fell on the ground and smashed.

"I told them to be careful with that core."

Lucifer rushed over as fast as he couldn't. As soon as Lucifer arrived the dark lizardmen grovel at his feet.

"I'm sorry my Lord, I didn't mean to."

"Forget about it, I'll handle it myself, go and help clean up the mess."

"As you wish."

Lucifer continued to work until nightfall. He returned to the campsite where all his wives were. Lelania was the first to rush to his side and dry his sweat.

"Husband, are you alright?"

"Yes I'm fine, I'll go and take a shower."

"Right."

Using water from a bucket Lucifer washed up. As he dried his hair he saw a single berry on a tree.

"Poison can't hurt me," he mumbled. Feeling a little peckish, Lucifer picked the berry and threw it in his mouth. "Hm, yummy,"

The next day came. Black Jack was still manage the development of the ship per Lucifer's ordered. Everything was going according to schedule. Pressila, who slept in a hut, got up and stepped into the sunlight.

"The sun feels so amazing, Hm ? The others aren't awake yet"

She said while looking at the tent below.

Inside the tent Fenrir, Eve and Lelania huddled closer together with Lucifer in the middle. Fenrir fox ear twitched the sound of the waves. She opened her eyes and looked at Lucifer who was still under the sheet.

"Lucifer you awake?" She asked but got no response.

'He's still asleep, might as well toy with him'

"Hehehehe"

Fenrir yawned and placed her leg on Lucifer and hugged him tighter but got no response.

'Still not waking up'

"Hey Lucifer."

Fenrir moved her hand to his chest and suddenly felt something soft and round near Lucifer's chest.

"Is this Lelania boob?. No this is too small…hm?"

Fenrir shifted the sheet and noticed that Lucifer hair that reached his nape is now reaching his back.

"What's going on?"

Fenrir removed the sheet off Lucifer and noticed that there was a girl laying in the bed. She is as beautiful as Lelania but has the same colour hair, Same pure white skin as Lucifer.

"Who the hell are you?!" Fenrir shouted.
