Chapter 610 Rise Of The Fierce Battle Maid (1/2)
Wrath and Lucien stare at each other silently for a minute after his last words. He wants to understand more about her while she is very confused and upset.
"I hope I haven't offended you with this… peculiar request." He speaks in a gentle, honest tone.
"Are you kidding?!?!" She asks in her usual furious tone, but now it sounds more like frustration than real anger. "You... you..."
Lucien is confused, but before he can say anything, Wrath continues. "You think I'm..." She pauses and looks at the other Sins with a sneer. "Like them? Do you think I'm one of your wives, whom you can do perverted things with whenever you want?!?"
"No, damn no!" He quickly responds. "I just thought you could want to have some..." He pauses as he makes a thoughtful expression. "I don't know, maybe interact with someone besides Donna and Pride."
Now it's her turn to be confused, so he quickly continues. "I didn't mean to do anything perverted with you…" He smiles. "Through, I was really curious to see what you would look like in a maid outfit."
"Bullshit!" Wrath can't believe Lucien's words. "Look at me; it's obvious I wouldn't look good in any outfit..."
"Why not??" He quickly asks.
"..." Wrath scowls, but when Lucien continues to look confused, she points at her body. "Are you stupid? I don't... you know."
"But what the hell are you talking about?!?" Lucien really can't understand how Wrath feels as he finds her and all the Sins incredibly beautiful in exotic and different ways.
'She doesn't feel pretty.' So Lust explains it to him mentally.
'Damn, why?!?' He quickly asks.
But before Lust can speak, Wrath does. "Are you kidding me?!? How could I look pretty with these screwed-up wings, weird legs, and..." She sighs before speaking in a sad tone. "Those scars…"
"Bullshit!!!" Lucien exclaims exactly as Wrath just did, leaving her perplexed.
He takes a step towards her, and she thinks about running away, but she steadies her feet and gets ready to attack if he tries anything strange.
But he makes slow, subtle movements, starting with looking at her wings. "I like how scary your wings look; they are very similar to mine... maybe they don't look whole anymore, but it must be because of the thousands of battles you've fought... a reminder of your story."
Before she can respond, he continues. "Beauty is subjective in the eyes of the beholder." He smiles. "I find the scene of Oya disemboweling our enemies incredibly beautiful, even though most people don't think so."
[I do!] Wrath thinks that, but she stays silent.
Lucien continues to smile as he looks at her legs. Her legs are really sexy, and the only difference to most humanoid creatures would be the fact that she has hooves instead of feet. But her hooves are always in perfect condition, adorned with shiny red metal.
"I like your legs too..." He speaks honestly. "Your exotic beauty is on par with Pride's."
"..." Those words bring a smile to Wrath's lips, just as they make Lust, Envy, and Sloth jealous.
Then he looks into Wrath's face. "And your scars..."
"Be careful with your words!" She quickly comments in a hostile tone. "I know they don't look good, but... they're important to me!"
"Naturally." He speaks in a stern tone. "I can see they're important to you… more reminders from your story? Anyway, I've been captivated by them since I first saw you."
"Is this some kind of fetish?!?" She believes he's thinking something perverted. "If you... I'll beat you until you cry bloody tears!!"
"Hey!" He raises his hands in defense. "Why do you think so badly of me??"
"Maybe because you're so weird?!?" She asks sarcastically.
"Sigh..." Lucien rolls his eyes. "I don't have any perverted interest in your scars. I just... it's just that they look too symmetrical."
"Symmetrical?!? What the hell do you mean by that??" Wrath gets upset, while the other Sins can't help but notice that her scars really do look oddly symmetrical.
He makes a thoughtful expression. "I'm not sure; they look so perfect, like tattoos or marks made on purpose... it's hard to believe they were made by accident in battle."
"Bullshit!!" Wrath exclaims her favorite word again. "I'm sure they're battle scars..." She pauses and makes a strange expression as she touches her own face. "Well... I know they're important to me, but... I don't really remember how I got such scars."
"Perhaps you made them yourself?" Envy asks.
"Bull-" Wrath can barely finish speaking as Lust speaks first. "Bullshit?? Yeah, I thought you'd say something like that."
She huffs and makes a hostile expression. "Why would I scar myself???"
Envy and Lust shrug. "Maybe because you're a little crazy?"
"You!!" Wrath begins to materialize her ax as she prepares to attack her sisters.
But Lucien quickly grabs her arm; his touch is firm but gentle, as is his expression as he looks into her eyes. "Don't mind their teasing."
Wrath gets shocked when Lucien's touch, look, and voice makes her so calm. In fact, she remembers when she felt that way when she fought him before.
By having her arm held by him, she feels as if all that endless anger inside her can be controlled as well. But that feeling makes her scared, and she quickly pulls her arm back.
"Yeah, I know..." She sighs. "I know more about teasing than anyone, and these two are just hopeless amateurs."
"I guess so..." He comments and then makes a thoughtful expression again. "What Lust and Envy said doesn't make sense, but your scars still look weird; I mean, isn't your body made of energy? So why keep scars that could disappear in seconds??"
Wrath tries to think about that, but she can't remember anything; she just feels that those scars are part of her, part of the real version of her. "Maybe they mean something to me? I'm not sure, so questioning me won't change anything!"
"Maybe they were done before, long before..." Sloth comments in her usual calm tone.
"Before what??" Envy quickly asks.
"You mean before we gain this power?" Lust asks.
Sloth slowly nods. "That would make sense; even though she could materialize a new body, she would want to keep her original version..."
"Bull-" Wrath almost exclaims again, but she stops herself and shakes her head. "Why are we talking about this shit??? Can't we put the goddamn past behind us and focus on the present?!"
"I think this is my fault..." Lucien speaks in a neutral tone and then looks at Wrath with a loving expression. "I just wanted to show you how special you are."
"..." She doesn't know what to say as she's never had anyone say that kind of thing to her. Her interactions, especially with men, usually involve their screams and curses, not praises.
Somehow, Lucien understands that. He really wants to make Wrath feel special, so he slowly strokes her arm. "You're a beautiful woman, Wrath, at least to me you're s-".com
And his actions and words make her feel better than ever, but the new is unfamiliar and, in turn, can be scary, so she makes a hostile expression. "I'm going to break your fingers if you don't take your hand away from me."
"Alright..." He quickly raises his hands again. "I don't want to make you feel bad, you know. I just-"
"STOP TALKING!" She exclaims angrily. She would like to say that his voice is irritating, but in fact, it is causing unfamiliar feelings to grow in her heart, good ones.
"..." Lucien doesn't know what to do. He thought Wrath could be like Donna as Envy and Amelia are, but his hot-head sister is very straightforward while the furious Sin is very complex and illogical.
Still, he tries to say something to comfort her, but Wrath stops him first. "How the hell am I supposed to shut you up??"
"How about putting on that maid outfit??" Lust asks with a naughty expression.
Wrath notices a sparkle in Lucien's eyes, which makes her blush. She even hesitates before speaking. "It... would it really make you stop saying weird shit?!?"
Lucien almost says that Wrath doesn't need to do anything because he understands that she doesn't want to be disturbed, but before he says that, he hears Lust's voice in his mind. 'Say yes.'
'Why?!' He questions Lust. 'She is crazy! It's better not to mess with her.'
'Come on!' Lust insists. 'You're not the type to give up on a woman so easily. Also, you're already reaching her heart; she clearly wants to wear a maid outfit for you to say how beautiful she looks.'
'Really??' He asks. 'Are you sure she really wants this?'
'No.' Lust answers honestly. 'Wrath is the most controversial person I know, but it's a possibility, so let's give it a try!'
Lucien sighs as he regrets having involved Wrath in their game. She looks like a raging hurricane about to destroy everything around her.
"Okay..." He nods at her.
Wrath snorts, but internally she's excited about the proposal. She never thought she could experience that kind of thing, and she doesn't know how it would feel.
Lucien again gets the wrong impression about Wrath; he generally understands women well, but Wrath is the definition of contradiction.
"If you don't want-" He starts to speak, but Wrath's body glows red.
The red light is her demonic energy, transforming her scary armor into a cute and charming maid outfit.
She wears a small black and white ruffled dress with a sexy cleavage that highlights her breasts. But instead of wearing delicate sneakers like Lust and Envy, she has cute bows adorning her ankles and black metal around her hooves.
Wrath also wears a black bow tie around her neck, which makes her look even more adorable. Lucien is really fascinated by how she manages to look cute while still looking so fierce.
[A truly battle maid!] He can't help but think.
"You didn't like..." Wrath takes Lucien's lack of words like a bad sign and gets disappointed.
"You look beautiful." But he quickly speaks in an honest tone as his smile makes it even more evident how much he liked it.
"Hehe..." Wrath can't help but smile as he likes how she feels right now.
The other Sins are even jealous due to how fascinated Lucien is by Wrath's new look. It doesn't mean he thinks she's prettier than everyone else, but while he's used to seeing Lust, Envy, and Sloth with gorgeous looks, Wrath always tried so hard to look just scary, so her new look is quite surprising.
Then he looks, he examines every part of Wrath's body in that adorable maid dress. And she likes that, but his look again causes her unfamiliar feelings in her heart, which makes her embarrassed.
"If you keep looking at me this perverted way..." She complains in her usual hostile tone.
"Are you going to gouge out my eyes and make me eat them?" He asks in a playful tone.
"Hell yeah!" She smiles, agreeing with him. In fact, they are more alike than she expected, and the longer she analyses him, the more she finds him special, just as Donna said.
