Hello there! Welcome my friends to the next chapter of Light Bringer Stories: The Witcher.
Hope your going to enjoy it as much as I had writing it and now on to the review.
dragon rose 11: I know, that escalated really fast. Okay, I don't know when, but I'm going to use 'Punk Daddy L' somewhere in this story.
Now story time also lemon warning.
Six Months later...
In the free city of Novigrad, more specifically at the Hierarch Square, one of the main squares, in the heart of the city center. Many nobles live here, giving them front row seats to the regular mage executions conducted by the witch hunters.
The square is littered with trading posts and market stalls, much like the nearby Fish Market. It hosts several merchants, including an herbalist, and an armorer in an alcove beneath one of the buildings on the western side.
"Emperor Emhyr has marched his legions into our lands. Laid siege to every fortress from here to the Blue Mountains. Rabid and ravenous, he bites and bites away." a Preacher of the Eternal Fire said to his gathered flock, "Men of the North, you stand at the precipice! Your kings have failed you, so now you turn to the gods! And yet you do not plead! It's time to repent! The devil walks among us!"
"You have no idea how right you are." a voice said from among the crowd.
Pushing his way through until Lucifer stood at the front of the crowd, "No reason to be so angry about it." he said, "Enjoy the ride!"
"Have you seen the face of the devil?" the Preacher continued, directing it towards Lucifer as he pointed at him.
"Every morning in the mirror." Lucifer said with a smirk, putting his hands in his pockets.
"...E-exactly!" the preacher said, slightly taken aback by Lucifer's nonchalant reaction but soon recovered and continued to address his flock, "He's in all of us! In our every moment of weakness. Look at this world! The sin, the lust! It's the Devil's touch."
"Don't give me all the credit!" Lucifer shouted amused, "You humans do plenty all on your own!"
"Look pal, move along. I'm trying to save these souls. From sorceresses, from freaks, from witchers!" Preacher said, "From useless relic's of a bygone age! Because the devil..."
"Isn't finished with you yet." Lucifer said annoyed, "Tell me, how many lives have you saved? Not many I'm sure!"
The preacher seemed to be silenced by his simple argument, "Run out of things to say? Good." Lucifer said with a smirk, he turned around to leave the stunned preacher behind.
"Preacher's fierce in the mouth. But holler at him and his tail slinks between his legs!" someone from the crowd shouted, "C'mon people."
Knowing he had brought doubt to the local religion, Lucifer walked with a satisfied smirk on his face through the city, finding the architecture to be rather similar to a medieval Amsterdam but with touches of Venice.
He stepped into a nearby crowded tavern, he drew a few heads by his sheer appearance alone. Most of them would confuse him with a rich nobleman, having no idea what he really is. With his usual confident gait, he walked towards the bar where he gestured for the bartender.
"Be with you shortly." he said.
Lucifer nodded, tapping his fingers on the bar as he waited, hoping he would get his drink before getting too bored. But before he even had the time to get bored, a unpleasantly familiar voice got him out of his thought.
"If it isn't the Light Bringer himself! Lucifer Lux, the living myth!"
He was sure no random nobody in this World would recognize him, let alone know of his title as the 'Light Bringer' nor who he really is. He already figured out who was calling his attention. He turned to his side to see a yellow wearing mangy vagrant and traveling merchant.
"We meet again." Gaunter O'Dimm said, a hint of excitement in his voice.
"...Do I know you?" Lucifer said with distain, turning away from him.
"No need to be so rude, Mr. Lux." Gaunter said keeping hints of politeness in his voice, "Just being honored to meet such a legend again."
"Yeah right." Lucifer said as the bartender finally came walking to him.
"What can I get you?" the bartender said.
"A glass of your finest whisky." Lucifer said, placing the gold coins, the local currency called Crowns on the counter, "And a glass of schnappses for the traveling merchant here."
Taking his money, the bartender soon gave him the glass, sliding the one with schnappses over to Gaunter, "I'm also looking for someone. A poet, named Dandelion or Jaskier or something like that."
"The poet? Heard about him." Gaunter said as he began to drink from his glass, "Someone left him the Rosemary and Thyme in their will."
"The Rosemary and Thyme?" Lucifer said, "Where's is that?"
"As you enter the city through the red light district, you come upon a bridge." Gaunter said placing the glass down, "The Rosemary is just past it."
"A brothel then, now that is more my speed." Lucifer said with a grin before turning into a frown, "Why are you telling me that?"
"A small favor." Gaunter said pushing his finger tips together as he began to walk away, "From one deal maker to another."
Lucifer turned away from the Master of Mirrors, who he had know already vanished in thin air. Pushing himself off the counter, he emptied his glass with a single swing, "That's bloody awful!" he added with a grimace on his face.
It was sometime later that Lucifer was sitting in the Rosemary and Thyme, which to his disappointment was pretty much abandoned.
When he had entered, he was attacked by a group of squatters, which didn't prove any trouble for the Devil himself to show them the door.
He was reading through what looked like a planner used for the bookkeeping of this place. "Seem Dandelion has a habit of writing down the times of his meetings... so who has he been seeing?" Lucifer muttered to himself, "Seems he's only been meeting women... Could use the old shapeshifting trick..." before he heard the door open.
"Now who the bloody hell are you." a dwarf with a strong accent yelled as he came in.
"Greetings my vertically challenged friend." Lucifer said turning to the dwarf, "My name is Lucifer Lux. I'm looking for the bard going by the name Dandelion."
"I like to know meself where he is. Maybe he could explain what the hell's goin' on!" the dwarf said, "I just barely returned, expecting to come home to a hot leg o' boar and some cold ale. What do I find instead? A shite storm. Dandelion gone, the tavern chock full of bums. Haven't a clue what happened."
"I see. But it's of the upmost importance that I find him." Lucifer said as he approached the dwarf, "You see, Potato has confirmed that he came into contact with someone very dear to me."
"Oh really?" the dwarf said, still suspicious of the handsome taller man.
"Her name is Cirilla and..." Lucifer said.
"Cirilla? Ciri?" the dwarf said surprised, "You mean she is back."
"Yes, she might even be in the city as we speak. I'm prepared to do anything to find her. Even if it means burning down all of Novigrad." Lucifer said seriously, "That's why I need to find Dandelion. I promise I don't want to hurt him. You have no reason to believe me, but I never break a deal." holding out his hand.
"Alright, I trust ya for now." he said shaking hands with him, "Call me Zoltan."
"Pleasure to make your acquaintance, Zoltan." he said.
On his way towards the Farcorners, Novigrad's largest district by land size, made up of small communities and farmland outside the city's walls.
The wind blew a pamphlet to his leg. Picking it up he saw the title Concerned Citizen's sermon.
Remember, good people, that fire can be both a blessing and a curse. Fire can warm with its flames, fire can prepare our nourishment, fire can drive off the horrors of the dark. Yet fire can also scorch, burn and incinerate.
Not being in the mood for any sermons of a church, Lucifer thought it to be sort of irony to use some of his power to burn the paper, letting is smoldering ash into the sky as he continued to walk.
It was quickly that he found the woman he was looking for, being harassed by a gang wearing some sort of jester getup.
"I will get you every last copper, with interest." the woman named Vespula said, "Gimme a week, please!"
"Whoreson's no banker. He's an honest man. You pay on time, you get protection. You don't pay..." one of the jester's said as he smacked Vespula to the ground, who let out a cry for help.
"What you hollering for, stupid wench!" Another jester gang member said, "What you hoping for, a knight in shining armor?"
"How about a roguishly handsome Devil?" Lucifer said as he approached them.
"Keep outta this, blondie." the one who hit her said, "Not your concern."
"That's where your wrong my fashion victim friend!" Lucifer said with a smirk, "Let's just say, the lady here, got someone else's protection now."
"Oh yeah?" one of the jesters said, "Who's?"
"Mine of course." Lucifer said as he stepped forward, "Now let's go for a demonstration!"
It was a short while later that the jester thugs where laying defeated and knocked out on the ground around Lucifer, who had a satisfied smirk when he looked over his work.
He turned around slightly bending his knees as he offered his hand to the lady. "Oh, thank you! Thank you!" she said as he helped her back to her feet, "To think there're men who'll help a stranger outta the kindness of their hearts..."
"Actually I happened to be in the neighborhood, I was looking for you." Lucifer said, "You see, I'm looking for a mutual poet of ours, Dandelion. Any idea where he could be?"
"Probably out whorin, that hoarse pheasant, that lying scoundrel!" Vespula said with venom in her voice, "Prize bullshitter came back, sayin it was till death do we part this time. And? No more'n a week passed before I spotted him in Harborside, strolling with some trollop on his arm!"
"This woman he was with in the harbor." Lucifer said, "You don't happen to know who she was?"
"Claimed she was his niece from Kovir, hah!" Vespula said, "Whore-vir, more likely!"
"I'm going to remember that one." he said with a smirk, before giving a bow, "Thank you for your help."
From outside the city walls, Lucifer made his way towards the next destination, the more affluent district in Novigrad, Gildorf. It is inhabited by the free city's social elite - nobles, wealthy merchants, townspeople, ambassadors and alike.
Lucifer being his usual self barged into the garden of the Var Attre Villa. He looked around but it wasn't long before he heard a voice calling out to him.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" a pretty young woman in a fine black dress and tidied up brown hair who Lucifer assumed to be Rosa said, "Answer this instant or I'll summon the guards!"
"Oh hello. My most humble apologies, milady. My name is Lucifer Lux, an acquaintance of Dandelion." he said with a smile, putting up his charms as he gave a kiss on her knuckles, "Had I known I would run into such a beautiful flower, I would have worn my finest suit and brought gifts befitting of a beauty such as yours." he gave a slight bow but it seemed the young woman was already being affected by him.
"What're you doing here!? How did you get in here!?" One of the guards yelled as he came running in, "I let no one in the front, milady, I swear it on the Great Sun!"
The young woman looked Lucifer into the eye whispering in his ear, "Not a word. I'll handle this." she said before turning to the guard, "Hold your tongue, sir. This... This is Samael von Milton. My new swordplay instructor. Show him to the training room. I shall join him shortly."
With that the young woman left to go inside the villa. The guard shook his head and gestured for Lucifer to follow him.
Walking down the stairs into the basement of the villa, where he found the young woman from before, standing in a grey training tunic, wooden training sword on her hip.
"You're my new instructor?" she said as she turned around to face him, looking him up and down, "Well... papa clearly went out of his way this time." she seemed pleased for some reason. She gestured to the side where another wooden sword was waiting.
Taking off his white coat to reveal his muscular arms, Lucifer threw it on a nearby table and taking one of the wooden swords.
"Well then." Lucifer said twirling his wooden sword in his hand until he held it in a reverse grip, "Show me your motivation."
Rosa attacked first, initiating two brief, unsuccessful strikes at Lucifer before regrouping. She then attempted to use an overhand power attack to overwhelm Lucifer, but he blocked the attack, maintaining a one-handed grip on his weapon as it's attack resulted in a blade-lock.
"Foolishness." Lucifer said as he casually throws Rosa to the ground, "Is rushing in blind all you can do?"
Back on her feet, Rosa then engaged in an aggressive series of attacks and managed to drive Lucifer back. However, Lucifer soon counter-attacked, forcing Rosa back.
She struck at Lucifer again, but he deprived her of her wooden sword with a quick flourish.
"Well fought." Rosa said with a slight pant, "You're much better than the last one."
"That's because I'm not your swordplay instructor." Lucifer said, twirling his sword and placing it on the ground and use it to lean on as if it was a cane.
"Really?" she said, a fleeting hint of disappointed went through her surprise tone, "Then who are you? And how on earth did you get in!?"
"Didn't we already have this conversation?" Lucifer said slightly confused, "Back in the garden."
"The garden?... Yes, yes! In the garden." she said quite suddenly, "So, what was it you said? Why are you here?"
"I'm here for the bard Dandelion, my dear." Lucifer said, "I believe he was your... What was it again, a yes, your rhetoric tutor?"
"Rhetoric tutor? That's a good one." Rosa said with a scoff, "That is why papa hired him, but not at all what the bard had in mind. He mostly played his lute and sang for us. I believe he thought he was wooing... He was chasing after me, but there was nothing between us."
Rosa got a slight glance before looking back at him, "...Seems my sister's had a bit of fun at our expense. But enough chatter! Stand and fight! I demand a rematch!"
She quickly slashed at Lucifer, only for him to block her blow. He moved to attack but Rosa managed to fend him off, evading backwards before she unleashed her own offense and drove Lucifer back.
Lucifer quickly lunged, engaging the girl in a brief bout of swordplay, hacking and slashing at Rosa with a series of heavy fast overhand power blows. Rosa, overwhelmed by Lucifer's strength and speed, was forced onto the defensive before she once again deprived of her weapon with a powerful strike.
"Well, if you're not an instructor, you should certainly be one." Rosa said seemingly pleased at their practice match. With her hands on her hips she took a few steps closer to Lucifer, "Fancy giving me a few private lessons upstairs?"
"What kind of devil would I be if I refuse a request from a lady?" Lucifer said with a smirk as he stared down at Rosa, knowing where this was going and he was liking it.
But before it could go any further, a voice from upstairs was heard. "What are you two lovebirds whispering about?"
Lucifer and Rosa turned to the stairs to see the twin sister, who came down them.
"You asked about my relationship with Dandelion?" Rosa said turning from her sister as she joined them to Lucifer, "Well, here's the mix-up's mastermind: Edna var Attre, the greatest mischief-maker north or south of the Yaruga!"
"I see." Lucifer said with a grin as he turned from one twin to the other, "So it was this pretty lady in the garden."
Edna let out a small giggle, "Of course it was me." she said, "Why, did Rosa try to play you for a fool?"
"Don't be mad." Rosa said to Lucifer, "We've done this since we were children. People have always mistaken us for one another."
"I can appreciate a good joke, my dear. I used to play tricks like that all the time with my much less handsome twin back in the day." Lucifer said with a hint of nostalgia, "But I guess the bard Dandelion did so too?"
"On occasion, yes." Edna said, "But then Rosa would quickly set him straight."
"If you'd shut your catty mouth for a moment, dear little sister." Rosa said to her twin, "I could explain."
"I can't help but wonder who the Lucifer and who is the Michael in this relationship." Lucifer thought as Rosa began to talk.
"Edna sent Dandelion some love letters. She signed my name." Rosa said, "Conceited as he is, naturally he fell for it. I was left to repel the aging bard's advances."
"Rosa, I had the best of intentions, you know that!" Edna said with a giggle, "I felt you needed help taking the first step... you blushed every time he sang a ballad."
"He'll next sing at your funeral if you don't stop it right now!" Rosa said with a threatening tone to her twin.
"Yeah, Edna is the Lucifer and Rosa is the Michael." Lucifer thought before stepping between the two sisters, "Calm down, ladies. No poet's worth two sisters nipping at each other's throats."
"Perhaps we can nip on something else." Edna said suggestively.
"Careful there, my dear." Lucifer said with a smirk, "I'm like crack, very addictive."
Lucifer was dragged upstairs as by both hands by the twins and up to their room, where the man was dropped on a soft bed covered in silk sheets. He smirked as he watching with interest as the twin sisters began to strip in front of him. He began to undress himself, dropping his clothes to the floor.
The two sisters where taken aback by the man's naked appearance, the sheer perfection that is Lucifer Lux, they shook their head to get out of it before she joined him on the bed.
Rosa took a calming breath before kneeling next to his hips, her hands came to rest on his thighs, running them along the muscle slowly.
"Don't get too fixated with teasing." Edna said, she gestured for Rosa to lie down, mirroring her position so that their heads were level with his crotch.
"Now we really get into it." Edna said raising a finger, using it to hold his erection completely upright in front of them both. She leaned in towards his penis slowly enough for her to mirror her movements, their tongues slowly coming out until finally the tips brushed lightly against the sides of his penis.
Lucifer's breathing grew heavier as he watched the two young women trace their tongues along his shaft in sync, feeling the warm wet saliva from both start to coat his penis.
He breathed, his nerves tingling as their hot breath ghosted across his skin. Rosa and Edna kept their eyes squarely on each other the whole time, like a couple of servants vying for their master's favor.
"Good, huh Samael?" Edna said.
"It's Lucifer actually." Lucifer said quick enough before Edna wrapped her lips around his tip to meet Rosa's own and get a more intense groan from him.
He couldn't fight back the pressure building in his balls any further, his hips jerking up to press his tip against the insides of their cheeks and let out a stream of cum into their mouths. Lucifer grunted, his head arching back into the pillow as he filled their mouths with his seed.
"That... that was hot." Rosa admitted, drawing back to admire their handiwork.
Lucifer lifted his head, amber eyes looked over his still hard shaft to see the warm coating, it looks like he can still keep going for a long, long time.
"I think it's time to get to the main event now, don't you?" Lucifer said, getting a nod from both twins.
"Yeah, I want to do that." Rosa said, almost hypnotized by the thought of getting his length into her needy body.
She moved to straddle him, rubbing her vagina against his penis and adding her own juices to those already coating it. Edna moved behind her, hands gliding down to both hold his penis upright and spread her wet slit for easy entrance. With her guidance, Rosa lowered herself down, moaning as she felt Lucifer's penis enter her body, enveloping him in her own wet heat.
"Good sister." Edna purred, keeping the hand on her pussy in place while the other one moved back up her body to rest on one of her breasts. She squeezed Rosa's softly as her sister started to ride the handsome Devil, fingers toying with both her nipple and her clitoris expertly and magnifying the pleasure that she felt coursing through her.
Rosa could only moan in pleasure, unable to focus on anything but the length sliding into her vagina and the hands teasing her body.
Smirking, Edna left Rosa to come around and straddle his face, her slit obscuring his vision and filling his nostrils with the scent of her own arousal. His tongue came out without hesitation as she lowered herself down, tasting her sweet juices as his tongue licked expertly along her vagina.
Edna brings Rosa's head close to plant a lustful kiss on her lips.
"Can't wait for my turn!" Edna said.
Rosa gasped bucking her hips wildly in an effort to find her peak. It wasn't long before Rosa moaned loudly as she felt a tremendous orgasm rock her body, her vagina tightening around him before she collapsed against Edna. Rosa was panting heavily, her movements slowing down as she tried to catch her breath.
Before Edna could react Rosa grabbed her by the shoulders, pulling her down so that her face was right in front of their still joined crotches. She lifted herself off Lucifer, quickly positioning herself over her twin and pinning her in place.
Lucifer got himself out from under the two women to position himself behind Edna, Rosa still sitting on her upper back and spreading her pussy for Lucifer to see.
"Why thank you Rosa." Lucifer said, rubbing the tip against her inviting slit. Edna feels his penis slide smoothly into her waiting vagina and fill her so fully.
"Oh Lucifer!" she moaned as the Devil began to thrust into her, he alternated in his pace, starting out with long slow thrusts before suddenly pumping into her hard, the varied experiences he had gained over the millennia, would not disappointing the nobles for a second.
"Let's try another thing too!" Rosa said, one hand picking up his hand and bringing it to her mouth.
She put his middle finger in her mouth, generously coating it with saliva as she put her own middle finger in his mouth. He did likewise, not stopping thrusting into the sister pinned under her own sister for even a moment. Once their fingers were suitably slicked, they both pressed them against Edna's rear, penetrating her ass with two fingers before she knew what was happening.
Edna moaned underneath them, taken completely by surprise by the invading digits. Ordinarily she would've yelled at them for doing that, but it felt surprisingly good to have her ass filled with their fingers.
"I can't..." Edna cried out as her own orgasm washed over her, both her vagina and her ass tightening around the penis and fingers inside her, pleasure rocking her and wiping her mind blank.
A few seconds later Lucifer came, moaning in relief as he shot thick ropes of cum into the girl he had just instructed a few moments ago.
Lucifer pulled out, laying down on his back with his arms propped behind his head as the two exhausted woman, crawled up to him, resting their heads on each side of him.
"Oh, by the way." he said, suddenly remembering why he was here in the first place, "Either of you seen Dandelion lately?"
"Edna might have." Rosa said resting her head in the crook of Lucifer's neck, "I certainly have not."
"My dear sister." Edna said with a grin as she rested on Lucifer's chest, "I would never spend time alone with a man for whom you burn with a secret passion. As I have just proven."
"Burn with passion?" Rosa said before sitting up, "For one who incessantly praises another woman's talents? Afraid I've more sense than that!"
"Dandelion praises another woman?" Lucifer said, "Who?"
"I believe she's a poetess or a trobairitz..." Rosa said, "Very skilled and exceptionally talented of course."
"Anything else?" he said.
"I remember him praising her 'melodious Koviri accent'." Rosa said.
"Makes sense. He referred to her as 'Callonetta' a few times." Edna said, "Bizarre names are common in Kovir."
"Perhaps Zoltan knows anything about a Callonetta." Lucifer thought before putting that thought to the back of his head, "Now who's ready another round."
At the beginning of dawn, Lucifer stepped back into Rosemary and Thyme where he came across the dwarf he was looking for.
He seemed to be talking to an owl with it's head covered in some sort of mask.
"You're back! You met Poppy?" Zoltan said as the taller Devil walked up next to him, "She ought to start talkin' any day now."
"My dear vertically challenged friend, that is a owl, not a parrot." Lucifer said as if stating the obvious, "Although..." he took a closer look at Poppy the owl, feeling some strange kind of vibration coming off her.
The same sort of vibration a enchanted or thing transformed by magic would emit. Though it could also mean the owl was magically inclined and would be smarter than the average owl, similar to some animals that were kept in that one school he came across where they teaches magic in another World's Scotland.
"Never mind. We are here for Dandelion." Lucifer said, "Did you got anything?"
"A few bruises and a torn doublet." Zoltan said, "Otherwise, no' much of note. He wasn't stayin' with any of them, they'd not seen hide nor hair of him in ages... All I learned was a few of Dandelion's pick-up lines - of dubious worth."
"Fortunately, my friend, I have something better." Lucifer said, "While the women on my list hadn't seen Dandelion in quite a while. All claimed he acted rather unusual, and mentioned he has been seeing someone else. But that woman wasn't on my list."
"What's she supposedly like, this lass?" Zoltan said.
"Blonde from Whore-vir." Lucifer said, "A trobairitz and named Callonetta or something along those lines."
"That makes it clear as crystal! It's Priscilla, must be her." Zoltan said scratching his beard, "A trobairitz, like you said. Quite popular of late. She's like Dandelion but with a pair o' tits. He's in love, laddie's head's on fire. Lassy's got him whirlin'."
"Do you have any idea where could I find this Dandelion with a pair of tits?" Lucifer said as he thought of their next move.
"Priscilla works with a mummers' troupe, 'Renarde and the Foxen'." Zoltan said, "Whenever they're in town, she performs nightly at the Kingfisher."
"...A night of poetry? Even in Hell we consider that an extremely cruel form of punishment. The sort of torture only reserved for the Hitler's and the Epstein's of the Worlds." Lucifer said annoyed, "I guess the Kingfisher is my next stop."
"I will meet you there later lad." Zoltan said having no idea what the blonde was talking about but understand well enough that he wasn't a fan of poetry, "This will be true poetry, you'll see."
Lucifer walked into the largest tavern establishment in Novigrad, located northeast corner of the Hierarch Square, the center of the big city.
He walked to the bar, hoping to not run into a certain yellow wearing mangy vagrant, he ordered a glass of whisky and information when the poetry evening would start, seeing as that was one of the things he had forgotten to ask Zoltan.
But to his horror, he was way to early and it would take a few hours before it even started.
"Well that is great!" Lucifer said annoyed taking a drink from his glass, "What am I suppose to do beside drinking this swirl!?" and he turned around to lean against the bar.
"Well there is something." the bartender said, "Me and a group of costumers like to play this game. Have you ever heard of gwent?"
"Did someone say..." Lucifer said turning around to flash the bartender a grin, "Gwent?"
That's the chapter, hope you enjoyed.
Many thanks to everyone who read, reviews, favorites or follows this, you beauties.
I hope you will join me next time. Still need to think of a sign of quote.
