Dark Knights of Lescatie biography (pre-transformation)
The Order of the Knights of the Holy Ice Flower is the order consisting exclusively of those who are considered worthy by the strongest hero of Lescatie, Wilmarina Noscrim. Lucienne, one of the knights of the Holy Ice Flower, was a knight who was personally trusted by Wilmarina herself.
Born in the family of a rabbit farmer, this girl mastered the blade on her own and earned money with it's help from an early age. Despite her courage, she remained calm even when she first asked "you" about "your" feminine ideal that day. The name that escaped from "your" mouth was the name of Wilmarina, who that day received the title of Lescatie's hero. Even if your "answer" was based on respect or love for the heroes that all the people of Lescatie have, even if "you" were blinded by these feelings, that day, she found her goal - to become as strong as the heroine Wilmarina, that "you" desired. Before the transformation of Lescatie into the mamono realm, Wilmarina was considered a talented daughter of the noble family of Noscrim, who was known as one of the most valiant people of Lescatie - a position that simple-minded people, such as "you", could not achieve. If someone, besides her, heard the words from your childhood, they would openly consider it a joke or reckless admiration. But for Lucienne, "your" word was significant enough to take up the blade and strive to become a hero.
"Will you fall in love with me if I become a hero of people?"
The reason Lucienne began her reckless efforts was the simple and healthy feeling she had when she was a little girl. For her, "you" are the person who moves her forward, especially when you are directly next to her. Even if she goes alongside Wilmarina, she is absolutely in no way inferior to her. Because if "you" are imprinted in Wilmarina's eyes, if "you" disclose your feelings to Wilmarina, then "you" marry Wilmarina and become unreachable for her. Even if from the outside it seems that this is not likely, for her this is a terrible possibility that can actually happen. Feeling disappointed at this opportunity and noticing her potential, Lucienne wielded the sword from day to day, as if trying to dispel such a future. Despite the fact that she was not blessed with the qualities of a hero and did not have an innate talent for magic and swordsmanship, thanks to her efforts, perseverance and obsession to approach the "brave heroine of Wilmarina", after a long time, she achieved her goal once a messenger from the Order of the Holy Ice Flower appeared. Later, Wilmarina personally appointed her as her deputy and "right hand", not only because of the perfection of Lucienne's abilities, but also because she felt in her something similar to herself. Lucienne was closer to Wilmarina than the other Knights of the Order, but no matter how long she followed her, the distance between them did not decrease, despite all the efforts that Lucienne was making. For a long time, she did not see her lover, "you", afraid of meeting "you" because of her fear, her weakness, and as such, she spent sleepless nights thinking about "you" in a debauched way. When Wilmarina turned into a fallen hero, she felt that something had broken inside her.
| “ | If misfortune befalls you, I shall become your shield! I wonder if it was a little different... I will destroy all of your enemies! ...This is hard, but I'll try harder. I must become a hero like Lady Wilmarina...! |

Dark Knights of Lescatie biography (post-transformation)
Lucienne thought about "you" all the time. That's why she was always afraid for "you". In the room opposite the window through which light came in, she encountered the heroine, which was her goal. Wilmarina became a succubus and it reminded the girl that she can't defeat her not only as a "hero", but also as a "woman" in beauty. Contrary to her broken mind, Lucienne instantly bared the blade in front of Wilmarina. But Lucienne's sword, filled with her hesitations, could never reach Wilmarina, and the girl herself did not notice when she entered the embrace of the succubus. The feelings that Lucienne experienced in the hands of the evil demon were filled with relief and mercy directed from Wilmarina. Unbeknownst to herself, Lucian truly trusted the feeling that continued to spread in her chest.
Despite the long training with heavy swords, which brought only pain, she was ridiculed because of her origin as a commoner behind her back. From the day she was chosen as a royal knight, her gaze changed and was filled with hatred and envy. The only thing that allowed her to bear this, and to continue fighting like a knight was the blind faith that "you" would like to see a hero in her.
All she needed was "your" love. Even the honor, the status of a knight, the god worshiped by the church, and even the existence of the Mamono Lord, who must be killed, did not have a serious meaning from the very beginning. Only the opportunity to be loved by "you" was enough to fulfill her aspirations. In the hands of Wilmarina, filled with human pleasure and monsters' magical energy, Lucienne's reborn as a succubus, saw the true face of Wilmarina.
From Wilmarina's feelings came a strong affection towards one person and indifference to everything else,- these feelings were akin to those of Lucienne herself. She also realized that the monsterized Wilmarina would never become her enemy. And, for the first time, Lucienne felt admiration towards Wilmarina, but not for the heroine, but for the fallen heroine, that she could receive a man thanks to love and desire. Just like Wilmarina, she wished to plunge into mamono mana, to be reborn as a monster, so that nothing would prevent her from becoming the wife of her beloved as soon as possible.
After becoming a succubus, she flew with her magic and went to "you" to satisfy her desires, burning with fire and passion, dreaming about spending time with "you". She wanted to make your completely hers, from every movement, breath, to every strand of hair, without giving anything to anyone else. She wanted to pounce on you as soon as "you" got excited, to challenge your body, and to make it impossible to exist without it. She imagined your amazing smile, full of desperate pleasure, imagining how the two of you would submit to animal instincts when lust captured you two.
At the heart of Lucienne's thoughts after becoming a monster was the creation of comfort for "you" in Lescatie, but it seems appropriate to compare it with a sense of ownership, which, however, does not exist in other places in itself. Becoming a succubus, Lucienne eventually began to worship Wilmarina as a girl who taught her love for "you", trusting her as the "older sister" that does not pretend to you. Now she serves alongside the "older sister", not with the goal of surpassing her, but as a friend and an obscene demoness with her husband. Since the time when she was a human, the love obsession that exists in her heart made Lucienne akin to Wilmarina. We can say that the presence of this love made her a succubus.
| “ | Ahaha♥ I guess whatever I was striving for was really stupid. But now, you're only looking at me like that...♥ From now on, I'll forever be the only one by your side... Whatever you desire, I'll do all of it.♥ |
