Chapter 171: Mother And Mother. 2
Two women were looking at each other as if sizing each other up.
‘… Her tits are so big… What are those thick legs? Her skin is so perfect… Is it because she’s a vampire that she’s so beautiful?’ Anna felt like she was standing in front of a goddess. For Anna, the woman in front of her simply had no signs of aging. She had no wrinkles, no skin defects, sagging, nothing!
Unlike Ruby, who was still young and had a very youthful beauty, her mother was very different and had a mature beauty.
‘Victor’s mother, huh…? She’s a lot like him…’ Scathach’s first impression of Anna was that the woman was a lot like Victor.
They even had the same blue sapphire eyes that Victor had lost due to the effects of his blood.
She didn’t have much to think about Anna, considering this was her first encounter with the woman.
“Nice to meet you, Anna Walker. I am Scathach Scarlett, mother of Ruby.” Scathach presented herself correctly.
“Ara.” Anna flashed a gentle smile, “Nice to meet you. As you may know, I’m Anna Walker, Victor’s mother.”
“Before anything,” Anna spoke in a professional tone.
“I’ll start by apologizing for any possible problems my son may have caused you.” She presented herself as a very respectable mother.
“Hahaha~, it’s okay, it’s okay, he hasn’t caused any problems.” Scathach chuckled playfully. Problems? She couldn’t remember Victor causing her any problems.
“…” The three wives looked at this conversation with heavy, deadpanned expressions. Intervene in a game between two vampire clans, fight and kill someone who was affiliated with Clan Fulger. Then, dare to attack the king in his own castle.
How did he not cause so much trouble!? He was the personification of problems!
Literally, this man couldn’t go two days without causing some kind of chaos!
Siena and Lacus wanted to scream this when they heard what their mother said to Anna.
“…” Kaguya, who was quieter after the past incident, looked at all of this with a slight smile on her face.
She couldn’t help but think about Victor’s words.
“You’ve slept for 700 years, my Maid.” She felt her body tremble every time she remembered those words.
‘I’m glad that was a lie, I didn’t want to spend 700 years away from my master… I want to see his entire development as a vampire.’ She thought with a small smile on her face,
Kaguya scratched her throat a little, which was starting to feel dry, and looked at Pepper, who was making a strange expression.
“Funnnn,” Pepper was glaring at Victor’s mother with a cute look, as she seemed to be looking for some evidence that the woman she was now looking at was actually Victor’s mother.
But it didn’t take her long to find obvious evidence like the woman’s eyes and their faces that looked a little alike.
‘They’re definitely mother and son…’ She thought with a slightly sad expression. Somehow, seeing Victor’s mother, she couldn’t help but remember her past.
“…” Victor and Ruby were looking at this scene with a slightly nervous look.
‘Why is my mother here? Shouldn’t she be up there!?’ Victor was freaking out internally.
‘Mother, please don’t tease her… Don’t tease her…’ Somehow, Ruby was preoccupied with something else.
“Umu, that’s a good thing.” She nodded satisfied,
“…” Pepper’s eyes started to sparkle when she heard what Anna said. ‘So that’s where he got that ‘Umu’ thing from.’
She had already heard about it from Ruby, but seeing it in person was something else entirely. She felt like she was unraveling all of Victor’s dark secrets!
“Just out of curiosity, what are they doing?” Anna looked at Victor, and the girls:
“And who are these girls?”
“They were training. And, these girls are my daughters.” Scathach replied as she looked at the girls.
Her eyes fell on Siena:
“The tallest is Siena Scarlett, she is my eldest daughter.”
“Hi,” Siena spoke with a little smile on her face, as she didn’t know what to say in front of Anna, she just made a normal gesture.
Scathach looked at Lacus with a small smile on her face:
“The smallest is Lacus Scarlett, she is my middle child.”
“Hello,” Lacus spoke in a neutral tone, and, same as Siena, she didn’t quite know what to say.
Scathach looked at Pepper with an amused smile since she could even imagine what her daughter was thinking as she looked at Victor’s mother. N0vel–Biin hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
“And the one who’s looking at you with a piercing gaze is my second youngest child, Pepper Scarlett.”
“Fue…?” Seeing Anna’s gaze on her, Pepper somehow started to panic and said, “Nice to meet you, I’m Peppesh!”
“…” The Group looked at this with an amused look:
‘… She bit her tongue… she definitely bit her tongue…’ Everyone thought inwardly.
“She is so cute!” Anna’s eyes seemed to be glowing when she saw Pepper’s reaction; she wanted to hug that girl so much!
Unlike the other two sisters, this one seems to be more like a child in Anna’s eyes.
Anna’s maternal instincts were somehow activated!
“Wawawawawawawa!” Pepper started to freak out when she saw Anna’s gaze, and since she didn’t know what to do, she hid behind Siena.
“Despite reacting like that, she is over 100 years old, you know?” Scathach exhibited a small smile.
“…” Anna opened her mouth wide in shock, that girl is older than me!? She couldn’t see that in Pepper since her attitude was like a child.
‘I think because it’s a breed that lives a long time, children of that breed develop more slowly?” Anna thought it was quite possible that what she thought was true.
After all, she had seen something similar in the movies of that hobbit who was in search of rings, and she remembered that in those movies, the races that lived a long time took longer to grow mentally. She watched those movies with Victor and Leon from time to time.
She wasn’t addicted to movies like Victor and Leon, but she watched them sometimes just to have fun with her family.
Scathach looked at Ruby:
“I don’t need to introduce my youngest daughter, right? I think you know her well.”
“Y-Yeah.” Anna woke up from her stupor and looked at Ruby with a gentle look.
“Hi, Mother…” Ruby smiled gently and continued, “May I ask how you got to this place?” For a few seconds, she looked at Violet and Sasha, who were at the top of the stairs…
“…” Violet and Sasha turned their faces and started whistling as if they hadn’t done anything wrong.
In a way, it was Violet’s fault for not paying attention to what she was talking about, but the girls wouldn’t blame Violet for that, and the white-haired woman herself knew it too.
‘Ugh, those girls…’ Ruby already felt the headache coming thousands of miles away. It was a common consensus among wives that they shouldn’t let Victor’s parents get too involved in the supernatural world.
As ordinary humans, they’d better stay out of this world.
They may know about this world, but they should never actively participate in the vampire world. It was better for their own safety and also for their husband’s mental health.
After all, they knew that if anything were to happen to Anna and Leon, Victor would go crazy, literally speaking.
‘Well, I think it’s okay, she just went underground, it’s not like she went to Nightingale.’ Ruby thought.
Anna looked at the four red-haired girls, and her eyes couldn’t help but soften as she exhibited a gentle smile and spoke to Scathach.
“You had three more beautiful daughters? How lucky… I wanted to have a daughter too, but as a son was born, I had no choice but to raise him.” She spoke with a disappointed face.
‘Oof.’ Somehow, Victor felt this arrow that Anna unconsciously released.
“Hmmm?” Realizing that the woman got something wrong, Scathach corrected her, “No, they are not my blood children, they are my adopted daughters, the only blood child I had was Ruby.”
“Oh…” Anna looked at Ruby and then looked at Scathach and repeated this process over and over again.
“Yes, you are a copy of each other…” The only visible difference between the two women was the atmosphere around them and their clothes.
Scathach had a mature woman’s atmosphere, and her gaze was as if she were looking down on everyone. She had the feel of a proud warrior.
Ruby had a more youthful atmosphere, she was like a flower that had just been born, and the look on her face was always cold as ice itself.
“Thanks, I think.” Scathach didn’t know how to respond to those words.
“M-Mother, what are you doing here?” Victor suddenly appeared beside Anna.
Anna looked at Victor with a slight expression of shock since she was still trying to get used to her son’s ridiculous actions.
In a moment, Victor was away, and now he was beside her. What he just did was supposed to be impossible!
But as she saw with her own eyes, she had no choice but to accept and move on.
It’s okay, humans can get used to anything!
“Walking? Looking around? Apparently, I’m on a tour.” She was honest as always.
“I see, I see-.” Victor was about to say something when Anna suddenly looked at him:
“So this is where you were ‘sleeping’, huh?” She wore a sly smile, like a mother who had discovered her child’s little lie.
“Well…” He scratched his head a little and didn’t know what to say to that.
“Anyway-.” When he was about to say something to change the subject, Scathach interrupted him.
“Victor, are you going to use gauntlets now?”
“Huh?” Victor looked at Scathach and, seeing the look she was giving him as she stared at the ice gauntlets, he flashed a small smile.
“…” Anna’s eyes twitched when she saw Victor smile. She could see very well that it wasn’t a smile anyone would give their mother-in-law.
“Yeah, I realized that using a greatsword while fighting a lot of opponents who know how to work as a team puts me at a disadvantage, so I was thinking about training my martial arts.”
“Heh~, in that case, why don’t you use the spear?”
“Spear?”
“Yeah, the spear is a great weapon for group control and single combat.”
“Oh?” Victor looked interested.
“…” The two smiled at each other.
“In that case, will you teach me?”
“Do you really need to ask?” Scathach reached out, and soon an ice spear was created.
Victor copied Scathach’s motion, and soon an ice spear of his own was created.
As they smiled at each other, the two suddenly disappeared and then reappeared a little apart from the group.
Soon, Scathach began to explain the basics of Spearmanship to Victor.
“…” Anna, who was looking at all this, just looked at her son with a dry look.
‘Don’t tell me… No, no… I’m just imagining things… I’m just imagining things, right? RIGHT!? Please, someone just say yes!’ She was in a state of absolute denial and refused to believe what she was thinking right now.
She looked at the woman with the long red hair. ‘Don’t tell me she is too?’ She had seen the smile the woman gave her son…
And that smile was definitely not a smile a mother-in-law would give her son-in-law!
“Mother, how about you go upstairs, and we’ll go get some food for you?”
“Umu?” Anna left her thoughts and looked at Ruby.
‘I need to get her out of here, when my mother starts training with Victor, they will both get lost in it and will definitely start to get hurt.’ Ruby wanted to keep Anna from seeing her son all broken down.
“…Hmm.” Anna seemed to be thinking.
“…” Ruby looked to Violet and Sasha with a pleading look, like she was asking for their help.
Violet and Sasha nodded and seemed to have understood Ruby’s gaze.
“Mother, we still have to introduce Lacus, Siena, and Pepper to you. After all, they will also be your family in the future.” Violet suddenly spoke.
“Huh?” Lacus and Siena spoke at the same time since they couldn’t understand why their names were mentioned in the conversation.
“Family…” Pepper muttered
“Oh, that’s a good idea.” Anna looked at the girls, her eyes gleaming with curiosity,
“Ugh, I don’t want to get involved with-.” Siena was about to say that she didn’t want to get involved with humans, but she stopped when she saw the gaze of Ruby, Violet, and Sasha.
Ruby approached Siena at high speed and spoke into her ear:
“Didn’t you not want to train, Big sis? This is a good opportunity to get away from training, right?”
“Oh! You are right! Let’s go!” Siena wasted no time and ran out of the room!
“…Why is she in such a hurry?” Anna asked curiously.
“Who knows?” Violet, Sasha, and Ruby spoke at the same time.
Chapter 172: Scathach and Victor.
After training, Victor and Scathach walked towards the bathroom for a shower.
“Ugh, every time I fight you, I feel like I’m not strong enough,” Victor complained as he straightened his body a little.
“…If you were strong enough to fight me in just six months, I would doubt my very existence…” Scathach was completely honest now.
“Hahahaha, that would be an interesting sight.” Victor chuckled and treated it as a joke.
“…” Scathach just looked at Victor with a dry look. She wasn’t kidding, you know? She would really doubt her existence if he got that strong in just a few months.
“Although we’ve been training for a while, I was missing it,” Victor said. Even though training was like torture, it was always fun to train with his mother-in-law.
“Oh? I thought you’d say you don’t like training with me like my daughters…” Scathach’s face darkened, it might not look like it, but she didn’t like what her daughters showed at all.
‘Perhaps I should do even more difficult training…’ Scathach’s way of acting was quite simple.
If her daughters didn’t like it, she should just hit it harder, and if they complain again, hit it even harder!
Push, Push, Push! No time to complain!
She was a Spartan!
“Never, I like training with you,” Victor spoke with a big, gentle smile on his face.
“I see…” Scathach flashed a small smile as she looked away.
“Honestly. I had forgotten how difficult it was to learn to wield a weapon I’m not used to…” Victor muttered.
“That’s normal, you’ve gotten too used to using the Greatsword. Now that you’ve tried to switch to the spear, a weapon you’re not used to, you’re going to feel uncomfortable.” Scathach explained.
“Yeah, I never thought learning how to use the spear would be so difficult.” Victor made a strange expression since he felt that the spear was very incompatible with him.
‘Maybe I should try another weapon? Perhaps a western sword? Or even modern weapons?’ Victor felt he had plenty of room to improve yet, he wanted to be something like Scathach, a master of all weapons.
Although for him to achieve this feat would take thousands of years.
‘Wrong, wrong.’ Victor shook his head several times and realized he was rushing again. He knew that rushed training was never good.
‘I must take Baby steps, one step at a time. First, I will master the martial arts I have now.’ Victor thought he should master spearmanship, swordsmanship, and the martial arts he’d learned from Scathach.
He was trying to do several things at the same time, and because of that, he was failing. He must do one thing at a time.
As one sage has said in the past: ‘Haste is the enemy of perfection.’
“…I honestly wanted Ruby to hear what you said now, I wonder what her reaction would be…” Scathach flashed a wry smile.
“Huh? What do you mean?” Victor didn’t understand what Scathach was trying to tell him.
“Nothing.” Scathach spoke.
Although Victor was complaining that it had been difficult to learn to fight with a new weapon, he had gone from someone completely new to someone experienced at using a spear in just a few fights with Scathach.
‘The pace at which he evolves is too fast… Although I won’t tell him that, I don’t want to boost his ego further.’ Scathach thought as she glanced at Victor out of the corner of her eye.
‘Ahhh, what a waste…’ Scathach thought as she looked at Victor.
She thought that if he had been born in a more chaotic time like she was born into, he would’ve evolved much faster and more consistently than he would do today. As there was no conflict in the world these days, Victor hadn’t progressed much after his training with Scathach six months ago.
Although Scathach’s opinion of ‘evolution’ was completely different from people today, from her perspective as someone who knew of Victor’s abilities and characteristics, Victor’s current development was good…. But not good enough.
‘How can someone with the blood of the king of the night evolve so slowly?’ That was Scathach’s thinking since, as someone who knew the stories of this special blood, she placed high expectations on Victor.
‘He’s still weak! But it’s okay… He has me, as long as I have him around, I’ll always force him to get stronger…’ Scathach flashed a scary smile. Even she didn’t know why she wanted him to get stronger, but one thing she is sure of is:
‘It’ll be fun when he’s strong enough to handle fighting me without me holding back too long.’
For others of the current era, the pace at which Victor evolved was completely unrealistic. N0vel–Biin hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
How does a 21-year-old vampire already have the power of a 500-year-old adult vampire? And how did this same vampire fight a 1900-year-old countess and live to tell the tale!?
Okay, the countess wasn’t using all her power, but still! It was an impressive achievement.
Arriving in front of the bathroom, Victor opened the door and entered with Scathach.
Victor and Scathach stood back to back as they removed their clothes.
[Master, shall I leave…?] Kaguya asked, as, currently, she was in Victor’s shadow.
After the previous incident, she rarely left Victor’s shadow since she felt more comfortable in his shadow, and she didn’t know why.
“Hmm, just do what you want.” Victor didn’t really have an opinion about it, and most of the time let his maid do as she pleased.
[Okay, I’ll stay then.] Kaguya decided to stay in Victor’s shadow.
“I’m curious about something,” Victor spoke as he took off the suit he was wearing.
“What?”
“How does a noble vampire make new vampires?” That was a question Victor always had, but he hadn’t had a chance to ask it before.
“…” Scathach was silent as she turned her face and looked towards Victor’s back.
“Why do you want to know that?” If a gaze could bore holes, Victor’s body would be Swiss cheese right now.
“I’m curious,” Victor spoke honestly.
“…” Scathach’s eyes began to glow blood red, “You’re asking me this because of that conversation you talked about creating new vampires?”
“Yeah, that’s about it too,” Victor spoke in a neutral tone.
“Heh.”
Somehow, that “Heh” of Scathach sent shivers down Victor’s spine.
‘Maybe I should have taken it harder in his training…’ Scathach’s eyes weren’t pretty now.
“Scathach?” Victor turned and looked at the woman.
The moment Scathach saw Victor turning to her, she glanced toward the closet.
“…?” Victor looked at Scathach’s back, confused since he was sure the woman had been looking at him a few seconds ago.
“So? How does a noble vampire make a new vampire?”
“…” Realizing that avoiding this topic would not satisfy Victor’s curiosity, the woman said:
“You need special ingredients to make a new vampire.”
“Tell me more.”
“Tsk…Fine.” She turned to face Victor and held up her finger, “First, you need the blood of the ‘Clan’ leader. Second, you need several special ingredients that prevent the human body from rejecting vampire venom and dying. Third, you need to know how to perform the witches’ ritual. Fourth, the human must be a virgin.”
“Hmm, this is complicated, huh.” Victor put his hand on his chin. He had an annoyed look on his face and thought it would be easier, something like:
Oh, the human is a virgin. Then he would bite this human and Voila! This human turned into a vampire! Simple, right!?
“As you are the leader of your Clan, you can use your blood, so all you need are the ingredients and the knowledge of how to perform the ritual.”
“Hmm…” Victor kept making that sound for a few seconds.
‘Tsk, why is this so complicated? Violet made it seem so easy in her memories…’ Victor thought.
“…” Scathach looked at Victor for a few seconds, while she seemed to be thinking of something: “There is another method that is only available to those who have the blood of the Night King.”
“Oh?” Victor looked at Scathach again.
“Find a virgin human, bite them, and turn them into a vampire, as you have the blood of the Night King, the transformation has a 100% chance of succeeding.”
“…” An awkward silence fell around.
“You’re kidding, right?”
“I am not.”
“And what was that explanation a few seconds ago?” Victor’s eyes twitched a lot.
“That was the normal method that the king of vampires along with the queen of witches developed to control the birth of other vampires,” Scathach explained.
“…Why would he do something so complicated?”
“A few millennia ago, if someone wanted to turn humans into vampires, the noble vampires just had to bite humans and put their venom in them.”
“And…?” Victor was a little impatient.
“Don’t interrupt me.” Scathach’s eyes gleamed a little.
“Yes, Yes.” Victor rolled his eyes.
“…” Isn’t this boy very rude? Should I take him to a torture session? Of course, by torture session, she was talking about training.
After some thought, she decided that no, after all, that would not be a punishment for Victor.
“The problem is: Noble vampires are different from you.”
“Because of your blood, you can turn any virgin human into a vampire, but with noble vampires, it doesn’t happen the same way… For a noble vampire to turn someone into a vampire, they need to play a gambling game where the chance of going wrong is 80%.”
“Example: The moment the noble vampire bites a human, if the human resists the vampire’s poison, they will become a vampire. If they couldn’t resist…”
“Well, they will die..”
“Thousands of humans have died in the past because of this.”
“And that was one of the reasons that in the past there was a war between humans and vampires.”
“To prevent another war from happening in the future, the king together with the queen of witches created this system of ‘ritual’, although it is a little more difficult, the success rate is 100%.”
“You just need a few ingredients, know how to do the ritual, and the blood of the clan leader, and voila, you can make a vampire slave.”
“Hmm.” Victor understood a little, but he still had some doubts, “So there are three rituals?”
“Huh?”
“I’m talking about the marriage ritual, the one that transfers bloodlust from the male vampire to the female vampire, and the ritual of transformation from human to vampire.”
“And the ritual to turn the vampire who was human before into a slave.”
“Oh, you’re talking about that.” Scathach placed her hand to her chin and gathered her thoughts, then she said, “Actually, this is all part of just one ritual.”
“Huh?”
“Example, if I want to turn a human into a slave vampire, I just change the letters of the magic circle and bite the Human and inflict them with my venom.”
“Now, if I want to marry a male vampire, I just have to do the same thing, and the male vampire and I must bite each other. When our respective venoms enter into each other’s blood, the ritual will be activated, thus allowing our bloodlust to be directed at each other.”
“I see…” Victor put his hand on his chin and thought about why Vlad decided to do this; a few seconds passed, and he said:
“The king created the ritual to prevent the vampires from ending up at war with ‘their food’.”
“Yes. That’s basically it, vampires are beings prone to easily lose control of their bloodlust, especially the younger ones.”
“I remember in the past, younger vampires would go to the human world to feed on humans, but because they didn’t know how to do things correctly when feeding on humans, they ended up applying their venom to the humans. And, in most cases, these humans died due to the high death rate of the venom. But those who didn’t die turned into vampires and ended up causing chaos in the world.”
“I see…”
[That wasn’t taught to me…] Kaguya spoke.
“What do you mean?”
“Huh?” Scathach looked at Victor’s shadow, then said something, “Ah, that maid, huh?”
[I learned all the vampire stories while I was training to be a maid, but I don’t remember that.]
“Kaguya said she didn’t learn this while training to be a maid.”
“Oh, of course, she doesn’t know that. The king used his Charm to make all the vampires of the time forget about that method, he just didn’t do it to his children and me.” Scathach turned away, then began stripping all of her clothes off again.
“Did he even do this to the vampire counts?”
“Yes.”
‘Monster!!!’ Victor’s smile grew, but he had one question:
“Why didn’t he do that to his kids too?”
“He was always a doting father.”
“…” Victor opened his mouth a little, then he flashed a wry smile and didn’t judge Vlad too much. Why didn’t he?
Because Victor knew he would do the same if he was in Vlad’s position, just imagining altering the brain of one of his sons or daughters left him with a bad taste in his mouth.
Victor soon returned to undressing, and when the two were completely naked, they entered the bathroom.
Chapter 173: Victor and ScathaChapter 2
After getting undressed and rinsing their bodies, Scathach and Victor exited the shower.
The two then made their way towards the bathtub, which was ridiculously large.
“What do you plan to do, Victor?” Scathach asked suddenly.
“What do you mean?” Victor asked as he stretched and closed his eyes. He supported both of his arms on the edge of the tub, sitting in a very sloppy way.
“…” Scathach, who was sitting properly in the tub, looked at Victor and then at Victor’s arms that were behind him. Unconsciously, a little smile appeared on her face when she saw this scene.
She elaborated, “I’m talking about Sasha.”
When Victor heard Sasha’s name, he opened his eyes:
“What do you think I will do?”
“I will search for them, and I’ll destroy everyone.”
“…” Scathach’s smile grew when she saw Victor’s gaze, and it was quite obvious that she liked his answer.
‘Although it was a misunderstanding at first, this change in mindset is good.’ At first Scathach thought Ruby had been ambushed by the hunters, and, because of that, she reacted so strongly to Victor’s words.
But if she knew it wasn’t Ruby but Sasha that Victor was talking about, her reaction would be completely different, and she would just say:
‘Do what you think is best.’
But, it wasn’t like she didn’t like Victor’s change; in fact, she approved. He was increasingly acting like a vampire.
“Do you want my help?” Scathach asked.
“…” The expression on Victor’s face changed to an annoyed one, he looked at Scathach:
“I…-” Just as he was about to say something, Scathach interrupted him saying:
“I know, you will take care of everything yourself, right?” She flashed a sneaky little smile, “After all, your enemy is just ‘yours’, right?”
“…” Victor opened his mouth a little, and soon he displayed a small smile:
“I’m glad you understand me.” He was completely honest now.
“I spent six months with you, it would be weird if I didn’t know you…” She said, as she looked straight ahead, and then muttered in a low voice, “Not to mention the fact that you are quite like me…”
” Hahaha, that’s true.” He confirmed the two sentences she spoke.
“…” A moment of silence fell around, Victor closed his eyes again and enjoyed his bath, but despite appearing as though he was relaxing, Victor’s head was anything but calm.
The image of his disfigured maid and his wife, who were ambushed by those hunters, kept replaying itself in his head.
Scathach took the water from the tub and wet her sinful body, then she leaned back against the tub and relaxed.
‘Somehow, this reminds me of the time I trained with Victor.’ Scathach thought in nostalgia.
Even though it had only been 6 months, to Scathach, it seemed like a lot more than that, and that was pretty ironic coming from her, being a 2000+ year old vampire.
“Do you know about this man?” Victor suddenly asked while his eyes were closed,
“Hmm?” Scathach looked at Victor, “Who?”
“General James,” Victor spoke after remembering Julian’s words.
“James… James… Hmmm…” Scathach put her hand on her chin and started to think. To be honest, she couldn’t recall a James. She never bothered remembering names and paying attention to ants, but as this was Victor’s request, she began racking her brain as much as she could to try to recall as much as possible about this man named ‘James.’
She started to remember the time she visited the Vatican, picturing the four ants she met at the time.
The blond-haired one was the pope, that she remembered, as she had known the man for a long time now.
Now the red, black, and brown-haired men, she didn’t even bother to remember.
Especially the brown-haired man, that man reeked of ineptitude, a dog that was not even worthy of breathing the same air as her.
After using her brain to the fullest, she finally got a lead. It was around the time she killed General Leonardo [red haired man] and General Kurtz [brown haired man]:
“James, use the enchantment! Try to immobilize this monster for a few seconds!” Pope Alexander ordered.
“Yes, Your Holiness!” The man made a gesture with his hands, and then a giant golden circle appeared around the Vatican.
“Oh?” Scathach looked at the black-haired man, who looked dead with her eyes shining with interest.
She could tell with just one look that this man was different from that brown-haired man. This man was competent, he was talented.
Scathach stopped thinking about the memories since, now that she had found the information she wanted, the man’s memory was no longer needed.
“I remember a man with black hair and black eyes, who had the look of someone dead.” She explained what she remembered to Victor.
“Oh? What else do you know?” Victor knew that before meeting Scathach, the woman attacked the Vatican, so she must know something more about this general, right?
After all, she fought him in person! She definitely must know something, right?
“I do not know anything else.”
“…” Victor was silent.
“Despite being a little more talented than the rest of the generals, he was still below average, so I didn’t mind remembering his face or his name.” Scathach spoke the truth, she just remembered why Victor had asked her a question, but if not for that, the next time she saw the man, she would ask,
“Who are you, damn you?”
The man is so forgettable to her that she even forgot the fact that she killed him and the man revived.
“…As expected of you, I think.” Victor displayed a faint smile on his face since he wasn’t really irritated that Scathach didn’t know about the man.
He was just amazed at how she could erase someone from her memory when she no longer had an interest in that person.
‘Black eyes, black hair, and the look of a dead man, huh?’ Victor thought about what he had just heard.
He made sure to imprint the man’s features in his head.
“…” Again, a moment of silence fell around the bathroom.
“HmmmHmmmHmmm.” While soaking herself in the bathwater, Scathach started making sounds with her mouth as if she were playing a song she’d heard in the past.
“…” Victor looked at the woman with his blood-red eyes while he seemed to be thinking about several things.
“Come here.” Victor suddenly spoke.
“…?” Scathach didn’t understand Victor’s sudden call. She stopped what she was doing and turned her face to look at Victor.
“What are you doing?” She asked with a genuine expression of confusion since she didn’t understand why Victor had opened his arms and called out to her.
“You haven’t fed yet, right?” Victor spoke while he had a subtle smile on his face.
“Oh…” Scathach understood now what he was trying to do:
“I’m not thirsty yet-.” She was about to deny Victor’s call.
But Victor interrupted her, saying, “Just come.”
“…” She looked at Victor with a neutral gaze, she thought of some things, but in the end, she said:
“Fine.” It’s not like she wanted to deny such a tempting offer, and even though it had only been a few days, she was already starting to feel the effects of her bloodlust.
As they were close to each other, she only had to get up a little to climb onto Victor’s lap. N0vel–Biin hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
Scathach sat on his lap and rested her hands on his shoulders.
“Happy now?” She spoke with a neutral face that held slight hints of shame since Scathach was feeling very awkward right now.
She did this kind of thing all the time when she was in training and even teased Victor before, but why couldn’t she do it now? Why!?
Something was definitely not right…
Victor looked into the emerald green eyes of the woman who was sitting on his lap.
He closed his eyes a little and exhibited a small smile, “Yes… But,” He opened his eyes and looked at the woman with a gentle look, very different from what Scathach had seen before.
‘That look… What is it? What is this weird feeling?’ She didn’t understand anything.
She had long scarlet red hair that fell down her body due to her hair being wet, and the scene of her hair covering her full breasts looked quite tempting to Victor.
Gulp.
Victor couldn’t help but swallow hard when he saw the sight of tiny droplets of water running down the curvy body that had pale skin that no normal human could have,
Scathach was stunning.
‘Ahh… this is bad, this is definitely bad…’ He couldn’t help but smile gently.
“It’s still not enough.” He took hold of the woman’s ass and lifted her a little, and with one quick movement, he hugged her.
Feeling something hard brush against the entrances to her private parts, Scathach’s eyes twitched a little, “Victor. What are you doing…-” She looked like she was going to complain about something but stopped when she saw that Victor’s neck was close enough for her to bite…
The scent was just too tempting, like a drug she could not live without.
Unconsciously, her eyes changed to blood red, sharp teeth began to take form before she completely forgot what she was going to ask.
Scathach’s breathing started to become erratic as she sniffed the air a little to smell the scent of Victor’s neck, appearing as though she was about to attack Victor at any moment.
“What are you waiting for?” Victor squeezed Scathach’s ass even tighter and moved her body closer as if he was claiming her.
“…” Scathach was too distracted by the scent emanating from Victor’s neck to think of anything or try to resist… And it was not like she disliked it either.
“Suck.”
“!!!” As if he had loosened the shackles that held her, Scathach opened her mouth and bit Victor’s neck.
Bite!
Gulp, Gulp.
She started drinking his blood like she was someone who hadn’t had water for several months.
“Ahh~” Victor bit his lip to hold back his moan, and as if he was being influenced by Scathach’s bloodlust, Victor’s teeth started to change too.
Victor hugged Scathach tighter, opened his mouth, and bit the woman’s neck too!
“!!!” The woman’s entire body visibly trembled. Even though he had sucked blood from her several times in the past, somehow, this time, it seems to be very different…
‘That’s… That’s so good!’ The woman’s eyes seemed to glow brighter, and unconsciously, she hugged Victor tighter too.
If they weren’t in the bath at the moment, Victor would have noticed that some suspicious liquid was leaking from somewhere that was quite important.
[…I should have stepped out of my master’s shadow…] Kaguya mourned her fate.
…
A few hours passed, and night arrived.
Victor and Scathach had long since stopped sucking each other’s blood, but for some reason, they weren’t in the mood to move out of their current position.
Scathach was lying on Victor’s chest while she was enjoying the caresses Victor was giving her hair.
Scathach usually didn’t like it, considering she would usually feel as though Victor was treating her like a child… But for some reason, she felt that she didn’t mind letting Victor do what he wanted for now…
“Kaguya, what time is it?”
Scathach opened her eyes when he heard Victor talking about another woman. For a few seconds, her eyes went completely black but quickly returned to normal when she felt Victor’s caress.
[It’s Midnight, Master.]
“I see…” Victor looked up, his eyes are glittering dangerously,
“It’s time.”
“…” Scathach got up a little and looked at Victor, and, seeing the expression he was showing, she asked:
“What are you going to do?”
“…” Victor didn’t answer right away and just flashed a small smile that showed off his sharp fangs.
He broke away from Scathach and got up from the tub.
“Oh…” She couldn’t help but react when she saw something hard as stone in front of her.
Gulp.
Unconsciously, she gulped. She was mesmerized by what was in front of her, and, for some reason, it felt more attractive than it had been in the past.
Scathach only came out of her stupor when she saw Victor walk towards the exit of the bathtub.
“!!!” Scathach shook her head several times and wondered, ‘What in the name of the seven hells is happening to me!’ She felt like she always acted weird when these moments happened, and she always had weird thoughts when she was with Victor alone.
Scathach followed Victor with her eyes.
And as he walked, Victor lifted his wet hair back with his hands and said:
“I’m going for a walk.” Slowly his smile began to grow.
“…” Scathach’s eyes twitched a little when she heard what Victor said.
“A long and fun walk…” He kept walking until he got out of the bathtub.
Scathach exhibited a small smile and said:
“I see… in that case, have fun, Victor.”
Victor turned his face a little and looked at Scathach out of the corner of his eye:
“I will… I definitely will.”
Chapter 174: The obsession and love of a mother-in-law.
Nightingale.
Clan Fulger Mansion.
Inside an office, a woman with long blonde hair who was wearing a rather noble long white dress was organizing some documents.
“Ugh, this paperwork never ends!” Natashia thought that the real enemy of all sentient beings was paperwork, and she wanted a way to speed up this tedious process.
“Hmm, if I use my lightning to increase my speed, I’ll end up destroying all the papers…” She started thinking of ways to increase her pace. If she kept up her current pace, it would take forever for her to find her husband again!
She thought and thought, but in the end, she couldn’t find a solution, “Ugh …”
She even started to think about hiring a witch to help in this tedious process, but like Scathach, she did not trust the witches’
“I do not know how my sister can trust that woman…She’s a witch, you know? They can’t be trusted.” Natashia”s eyes sharpened when she thought of Hecate.
Knock, Knock.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
The woman’s face took on a visible expression of annoyance, but soon her face returned to normal since she knew that the only people who could bother her when she was working was her butler or her sister:
“…What is it, Jeff? I’m busy.”
“Lady Natashia, we received important information from one of Countess Scathach Scarlett’s daughters,” Jeff spoke in a neutral tone.
‘One of Scathach’s daughters…?’ Natashia put her hand to her chin and started to think, but it didn’t take her long to figure out who she was. After all, there was only one woman besides Scathach in Clan Scarlett who had enough influence to contact her Clan whenever she wanted, considering if a small clan did that, they would just be ignored.
Although Clan Fulger was no longer a vampire count rank, the prestige the family had built over 2000 years couldn’t be dissolved so easily:
‘Oh, it’s that girl, huh? What does she want with me?’
“Enter.” The woman ordered.
Soon a man wearing a butler’s suit entered the office, he was tall and appeared to be a little older. This man’s name was Jeff. Similar to Kaguya’s Clan, Jeff was a butler who was part of a subordinate Clan to Clan Fulger.
The name of the clan that Jeff was part of was called ‘Larkin’.
As a subordinate Clan that had served Clan Fulger since Natashia’s mother’s generation, Clan Larkin in the past had several members, but now the Clan was in decay due to a past incident that killed many Clan Larkin members.
The Clan had been reduced to just Jeff and his son, who were the only survivors.
He closed the door and put his hand on his chest in a gesture of respect, and then he said,
“Lady Natashia, we have received information from Lady Siena through a Witch named ‘June’.”
“Oh?” Natashia’s eyes sparkled with some interest, ‘Is Clan Scarlett getting involved with witches now? Things have really changed over time…’
In the past, it would have been unthinkable for the Scarlett Clan to employ the help of the witches, but it seemed that things were no longer the same.
“…” Natashia kept looking at the man, she was waiting for him to finish what he came here for, she was busy you know!? She never thought organizing her Clan would take so long. ‘I’m missing my husband…’
When the butler saw Natashia’s gaze, he realized that his master was going to enter her own world again, and since he knew it was very irritating to wake her from that state, he spoke.
“Apparently, some hunters set a trap for Lady Sasha.” The butler dropped the bomb.
“…!” Natashia’s face took on a serious expression as she looked at the butler with her eyes glowing blood-red:
“…What did you say?” She spoke in a voice so demonic that it sent shivers through the butler’s entire existence. And, once again, he was reminded that the woman in front of him, despite acting strange at times, was a former countess, an existence whose very own name caused fear in ordinary beings.
“… I-…” The butler was going to say something, but he couldn’t. The pressure leaving Natashia’s body was too great, and he felt he was carrying the world on his back.
“…” Natashia narrowed her eyes, she took a deep breath and calmed down, and then she spoke again:
“Continue.”
“…” The butler sighed in relief when he realized that his master had retracted the pressure she was releasing from her body, then he looked at Natashia with a neutral gaze and continued:
“Lady Sasha had returned to her old mansion, apparently she had gone to retrieve an important item she left in the mansion, and when she arrived at that location, she was ambushed by the hunters.”
“…” Again, Natashia’s gaze twitched as she heard what the butler said.
“How is my daughter doing? Is she fine?” Even though she was speaking coldly, it was quite obvious that she was worried about her daughter.
“Yes… Count Alucard was around at the time, and he took care of the situation.” By handling the situation, the butler meant that the new count had killed everyone involved.
And Natashia knew this:
“Oh…” She flashed a loving smile; ‘As expected of my husband!’ She laughed inwardly.
“…?” The butler didn’t understand Natashia’s smile when he mentioned the new count’s name…
‘Don’t tell me the rumors are true?’ The butler opened his eyes a little in shock.
A rumor had been going around among the servants of the Clan Fulger mansion, and the rumor was quite simple:
‘Apparently, Lady Natashia Fulger is in a relationship with the new Count of Vampires.’
The rumor was born when a maid heard Natashia talking aloud that she was going to do this and that with her ‘Husband’, and she heard Natashia screaming that she wouldn’t be left behind just because the man became a count!
It didn’t take a high-IQ brain for the maid to understand who her master was talking about.
And as a hardworking maid, what did she do?
She told another maid…
And that maid told another maid, and that other maid told another maid, creating a cycle that spread the rumor like a wildfire. Soon everyone in the mansion knew about Natashia Fulger’s new relationship…
A hardworking maid indeed…
Did Natashia do anything to stop this rumor from spreading? Of course not. In her mind, this wasn’t a rumor; it was an absolute truth.
Natashia suddenly got up, walked towards a picture of a woman, stopped in front of it, and looked at the woman with a slightly annoyed look:
‘Why didn’t my breasts grow like yours, Mother?’
Rumble.
She reached out her hand, and lightning shot out of her finger and hit the board, but when the lightning struck the board, what Natashia expected to happen didn’t happen…
Surprisingly, Natashia wasn’t upset.
‘…Julia, you sneaky maid.’ She exhibited a gentle smile. She wasn’t annoyed by what the maid did. After all, it was for her daughter’s sake!
How could she be angry?
But… She was quite annoyed about something.
Rumble, Rumble.
Lightning started to cover Natashia’s body, her hair began to float as if it was defying gravity, a frightening pressure started to leave her body, her face distorted with pure hatred.
“Those fuckers…” She clenched her fist angrily.
Rumble!
The lightning covered Natashia’s entire body as if it were an aura.
Natashia’s lightning seemed to be reacting to her anger and began to spread around.
BOOOM, BOOOM.
The furniture around Natashia began to fade out of existence.
“Master!?” The butler retreated quickly since he didn’t want to get caught in the crossfire.
“I felt a frightening pressure, something happened to my-… Natashia!?” Victoria, who appeared suddenly, was shocked when she saw her sister’s condition.
‘What happened to make you so angry?’ Victoria looked at the butler:
“Explain what happened.”
“Yes!” As if he were a seasoned rapper, the butler told Victoria what had happened.
“I see…” Victoria now understood Natashia’s reaction.
“What are you going to do, Sis?” Victoria asked with a sharp look in her eyes. She didn’t like to know that someone in her family was ambushed by hunters. Yes, Victoria has had her issues with the Fulger Clan.
Because of being born without the ‘lightning’ talent of Clan Fulger, she was excluded and humiliated and had she not fled this Clan, a fate far worse than death could have befallen her.
But… In just one night, all her problems disappeared in a flash, all because of her sister.
And she was so grateful for that.
“What do you think? I’m gonna kill-…” Natashia looked like she was going to say something, but she suddenly stopped.
Suddenly she remembered Victor’s words: ‘Become a good woman, become a good clan leader, become a good mother, and regain everything you lost. When you do, I will marry you, and you will be mine, and I will be yours.’
…again, he didn’t say that! She completely distorted what he said!
Suddenly all of Natashia’s killing intent disappeared as if it had never existed in the first place.
“My daughter Sasha is fine. After all, my husband is with her. I’m pretty sure he won’t let anything happen to her.”
“… Eh?” The butler opened his mouth in shock. Didn’t the rumor just come true!? He needed to talk about it to others! His master is going to marry a count! ‘Wait… if she marries a count, will she be able to become a count again? Huh?’ The butler’s mind seemed to stop working for a few seconds. This chapter was originally shared via n(0))vel(b)(j)(n).
“… So what? You’re not going to let these motherfuckers get away with it, right?”
“Of course not, but I need to regain what was mine.”
“…So it’s time, huh?”
“Yes.”
Natashia’s smile grew disproportionately on her face, “Let’s put the plan: ‘I will regain my happiness’ into action.”
“… As I’ve said several times, this name is too big!” Victoria grumbled.
“HAHAHAHA~, what matters is the intention of the words and not the words themselves!” Natashia laughed.
Rumble, Rumble.
Suddenly Natashia’s body began to be covered by lightning.
“Take care of everything, Victoria. I’m going to pay a little visit to our king.”
“Okay, be careful around there, sis.”
Natashia exhibited a gentle smile, “I will.”
…
Current time, Midnight, a few moments after Victor left.
Inside a room were Siena, Violet, Ruby, and Sasha. Since it was late, Anna returned upstairs to her house.
Pepper and Lacus were in their private rooms. Luna was sleeping, she was very tired, she worked a lot today.
“What did you do!?” Sasha yelled and sounded like someone who couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“…I told your mother about what happened…” Siena repeated what she said.
“Why did you do that!?”
“Well, she’s your mother. She deserves to know the truth and stop screaming, no one here is deaf.”
“You-,” Sasha looked like she was going to scream again, but she controlled her emotions, then took a deep breath and spoke in a neutral tone, “Don’t you understand what you’ve done?”
“…?” Siena looked at Sasha like she was dumb, “I told your mom about what happened.”
“That’s the point! You shouldn’t have done it!”
“… Stop yelling.” Siena spoke as she put her hand over her ears, “Your voice sounds like lightning hitting the ground, it’s quite loud, you know?”
“Ugh.” Sasha put her hand to her head as if she had a massive headache and could already feel the problems coming thousands of miles away.
‘Mother, don’t blow up Nightingale.’ For some reason, Sasha thought her mom was going to commit a terrorist attack. She’s not going to do that!… Probably.
“Siena.” Ruby suddenly spoke.
“Hmm?” Siena looked at her sister,
“Sasha’s mother’s current state is…” She was going to say crazy, but she decided to think of gentler words to say, “Peculiar.”
“And?” Siena didn’t understand the problem. After all, she put herself in Natashia’s situation, and if something happened to Ruby, she would also want to know about it.
“Tsk, stop beating around the bush, Ruby.” Violet clicked her tongue in annoyance, then looked at Siena and said,
“Sasha’s mom’s new personality is very unpredictable, that crazy woman has more screws loose in her head than Ruby’s mom and me combined, and when talking about what happened with Sasha to her, you just provoked the sleeping monster in the woman…”
Violet put on a neutral expression as if it’s not her problem, “No one knows what she’s going to do now, she’s too unpredictable.”
“Oh…” Siena understood now and thought a bit, ‘Didn’t I just provoke someone with the vampire count level to move and cause chaos?’ She broke out in a cold sweat as she imagined what Natashia could do.
‘Fuck, I should have known better before saying something. I could have said it in a more formal or less honest way… But I still believe it was better for Natashia to know about what happened.’ Siena didn’t change her mind easily and faithfully believed that this was the best choice.
‘Well fuck it, I don’t want to know.’ In a way, she stopped caring more about vampire society. This was all the effect of Victor since, because of that hateful man, her family was much closer now than it ever was.
And she liked it…
“Ugh…” Just thinking about Victor’s face and his smile made her annoyed; ‘Humpf, you hateful man.’ She still hadn’t forgiven him for dragging her into her mother’s training/torture!
“…” Ruby and Sasha looked at Violet with a dry look. Did she just admit she was crazy?
‘So, she’s aware of it, huh?’ Sasha and Ruby thought at the same time.
Chapter 175: An angel sent by God.
Vampire Kings Castle.
“Your Majesty, I came here today to ask your permission,” Natashia spoke in a surprisingly respectful tone.
“…” Vlad looked at Natashia with his blood red eyes; ‘Interesting, she’s gotten stronger, just like that little girl…’ He could already imagine what had happened when he realized that an older vampire became a little stronger suddenly, something that was normally impossible.
After all, the older a noble vampire got, the harder it was for them to get stronger.
“Permission for what?” Vlad spoke up, clearly pretending not to understand why she was here.
“I want your permission to challenge Clan Horseman for the title of vampire count.” Natashia continued speaking in a respectful tone.
“…You know you don’t need my permission for this, right?” Vlad’s eyes glowed a little blood red.
“I do not know.” She was completely honest.
“What do you mean?” Vlad asked.
“Never before in vampire history has there been a consecutive game for the title of vampire count.”
“…” Now that Natashia talked about it, Vlad thought it was true. He didn’t make an explicit rule for it because he didn’t think it was necessary.
Vlad thought about what to do, but it didn’t take him long to make a decision:
“Annasthashia Fulger.”
“Yes, your Majesty?”
“Do you remember the unspoken rule of our world?”
Natashia’s smile grew unnaturally, “Yes, I remember.”
“What is the unspoken rule of our world?” Vlad asked with a small smile.
“The strong are always right.”
“I’m glad you remember.” He continued with the same smile.
Vlad knew, he knew their race is a bunch of proud and arrogant beings, and because of that, he let them do what they wanted as long as they didn’t break the main rules he made.
He needed to keep some ground rules so these vampires could live in society.
But if there was one thing that never changed in all the rules he made, it was: ‘The strong are always right.’
Why didn’t he do anything about that vampire thinking?
It’s because he’s strong.
Vlad could count on his hands the beings who could challenge him and have a chance to emerge victorious, and none of those beings were vampires.
And over the millennia, he just got stronger and stronger. He just needed to sit here, and his body would naturally get stronger. N0vel_Biin hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
He was not like these noble vampires.
He was an irregularity, a monster; that was why he didn’t see the need to train. After all, he believed he had learned everything the world had to offer in the thousands of years he’d wandered the Earth.
And there was also another reason why he didn’t take proactive steps to change that thinking.
The thoughts of all supernatural beings are the same: ‘The strong are always right.’
Some societies like wolves take this more to the extreme, and some societies like witches don’t believe it. But overall, it was common knowledge to all beings in the supernatural world that if you lose to a stronger being, it’s your fault for not being strong enough.
“Do what you want, Annasthashia.” Vlad gave his order, then he closed his eyes.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Natashia’s smile was so wide that it caused a little discomfort in the man standing next to the king, “I will definitely do that.”
Rumble, Rumble.
Natashia’s body began to be covered by the lightning, and just as she was about to leave, Vlad suddenly spoke:
“Before you go… I was curious about something.” He opened his eyes and looked at Natashia.
“Huh?” Natashia looked at Vlad, “What are you curious about, your majesty?”
“Why are you in such a hurry to get back what you lost?” Vlad’s eyes seemed to glow a little red as if he was looking through Natashia’s entire being, and nothing could go unnoticed by his gaze.
“…” Natashia was silent.
“Is it pride? Is it out of a sense of duty? I can not understand.” Vlad could guess Natashia’s thoughts, but he wanted to hear the response from the woman’s mouth.
“I apologize if this sounds disrespectful, but you’re mistaken, your majesty.”
“Oh?”
“The reason I’m going to get it all back isn’t because of some shitty motive like ‘pride’, or a sense of ‘duty’.” Natashia’s smile grew, as her cheeks turned a little red, then she spoke with surprising conviction:
“I will recover everything for my happiness, for my daughter’s happiness, and for my husband’s happiness.”
Hearing the word ‘husband’. Vlad’s eyes twitched so much now, he held back the urge to facepalm and continued to stare at Natashia.
Seeing the woman’s gaze, he thinks, ‘So this is all about that boy, huh?’
“I see. That’s a good reason.”
“Right? That’s a better reason than something like pride or some bullshit like that.” Natashia smiled.
“…” Looking into the woman’s lifeless eyes, Alexios Alioth can’t help but think; ‘Does that man have some kind of magnet to attract crazy women?’
“Yes, Indeed. You are correct.” Vlad agreed with Natashia’s words, but it was pretty obvious to Alexios that Vlad was only agreeing out of politeness since he didn’t want to prolong his conversation with Natashia too much.
“Speaking of your husband… Where is that man?” Vlad asked just out of curiosity. He wanted to know if Natashia knew something, considering all he knew was that Victor was in the human world.
Natashia’s face took on an annoyed expression, “…I know he’s in the human world and somewhere near my daughter’s old mansion.” She just remembered that she should research more about Victor.
‘How come I, as your wife, don’t know anything about you, my husband!? That is inadmissible!’ Natashia thought.
“But…” Slowly a loving smile grew on her face:
“I bet wherever he is, he’s definitely having fun.”
…
Somewhere in California.
Victor looked into the moonlight with his blood red eyes:
“Ahh~ as expected, it’s a beautiful night tonight, isn’t it? My Maid.” Victor’s shadow began to shift, and soon the silhouette of Kaguya’s shadow appeared.
[Yes, My Master…] Kaguya agreed with Victor, and then she continued:
[What are you planning to do, Master?]
“Hahahaha~, we’re just going for a walk, my Maid.” Victor flashed a smile that showed all of his sharp teeth. He was definitely not just going for a walk.
[…I see… Whatever the master decides to do, I, as your Maid, will be by your side.] Kaguya spoke in a neutral tone, but it contained a very visible determination.
“Thanks, My Maid.”
“N-Noooooooo!” A scream was heard in the distance by Victor.
Victor stopped looking at the moon and looked towards one place, as his world started to change to blood red, and his vision began to widen like an eagle’s vision until it stopped in one place.
In this place, Victor could see a group of beings with their bodies glowing green, and he could also see two beings that had their hearts beating.
And one of those beings that had a beating heart was being surrounded by beings with green energy.
Victor’s smile grew, “A beautiful night indeed.” Soon Victor’s body seemed to disappear from the spot.
…
Inside a church, a very strange situation was taking place.
A group of men garbed in what looked like indigenous clothing were surrounding a woman in a nun’s dress.
The woman had several parts of her dress torn, and she appeared to be being scrutinized by the group of men.
“Hmm, she has a good body, I think she will satisfy our mates.” A dark man spoke as he looked at the woman; he appeared to be the leader of the group.
The woman had long black hair with sapphire blue eyes and was sitting on the floor while covering her breasts with her hands.
“Yes, despite being a nun who was supposed to serve God, she was born with a sinful body that looks like it was given by the devil himself.”
Hearing someone familiar’s voice, the woman looked at the man and opened her mouth in shock:
“Father Fernando, why are you doing this!?”
“Why…?” The man looked at the woman as if listening to some kind of nonsense, “It’s quite simple. The church needs money, my dear, Bruna.” He looked at her like she was dumb. How could she not understand something simple like that?
“Wh-…” Bruna couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“Do your best for the good of our church, just like the nun Leticia,” Fernando said with a neutral, lifeless smile.
“…” Bruna opened her mouth wide, her eyes filled with horror. A few months ago she had received news that her childhood friend Letícia had disappeared, and she tried to look everywhere, but she didn’t find her.
She looked for the police, but the police didn’t try very hard to help, and in the end, the case was left open. It was like no one wanted to look for her friend.
“You sold her to this scum!?” She screamed angrily.
“Grr…” Several men around her began to growl at the woman.
“Ohhh!” Bruna walked and crawled back in fear when she saw the sharp teeth and golden eyes of the men.
“D-Demon.”
“This is taking a long time.” Suddenly a tall man in garments similar to the man’s said, “Get the deal over with, we need to put this woman to work for our future.” He tossed a bag to the man beside the priest.
“Yes, I know.” The man took the bag and opened it.
“Take it.”
“Ohhhh,” the priest’s eyes gleamed with greed as he saw the gems inside the bag, “It’s a pleasure working with you. Come here again in six months, maybe I can get you another nun.”
“It’s always good to do business with you, Father.” The man held out his hand.
The priest smiled and held out his hand and took the man’s hand, “I agree.”
Finishing what he had to do, the man looked at the woman, “Take off those ridiculous clothes, we need to dress her up for the ritual.” He ordered.
“Yes.” The men around the woman spoke as they looked at the woman with their eyes gleaming gold.
“W…W-What are you doing?” She stuttered in fear.
They approached the woman and started tearing at her clothes.
“N-Nooooooo!”
A few seconds later, the woman was completely the way she came into the world.
“Now that those clothes are off, I can see you really have a great body. Are you really a nun?”
“Snif, Snif…” The woman didn’t respond and just looked at the man with a look of pure hatred.
“Can’t we start the ritual now?” Some of the men asked while looking at the woman with visible desires.
“Yes, we should start the ritual now.”
“Don’t let your desires control you, remember our purpose.” The man spoke with a cold look.
The men’s eyes shifted to a serious look, “…Yes, you’re right.”
“Good.” He started walking towards the exit:
“Take her.” He ordered.
“D-Don’t come near me, no… I don’t want to be defiled…” The woman’s face darkened in horror, while tears started to fall from her face. She could already guess what kind of fate she would have if those men came near her.
Before the men’s hands lifted the woman’s body, they all heard a demonic voice that sent shivers down their spines:
“I’m really curious about your purpose, little cub.”
“!!!?” Everyone turned their faces and looked towards the voice, and soon they saw a man sitting under the Cross.
‘How long has he been there?’ The man who was giving the orders thought.
The man’s eyes glowed a dangerous blood red while he took in all the men present but quickly lost interest and rose from where he was sitting.
“He’s tall…” One of the men spoke.
“Father, what a sinful man you are, you sold a person for some precious stones… And you still call yourself a man of God?”
“…God doesn’t pay my bills.” The priest’s response was instantaneous, and his response left the woman and the tall man looking shocked.
“pfft… HAHAHAHAHAHAHA~” The man started to laugh intensely like he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Gulp.
Everyone gulped when they heard the man’s crazy laugh.
Instinctively, they could feel that man is bad news.
“We need to get out of here… and fast.” One of the men whispered. He was the same man who handed over the bag that contained gemstones.
“Yes.” The man giving the orders agreed, “Get the woman, we need-.”
“No one leaves this place without my permission.” Suddenly everyone heard the man’s cold voice, and then:
FUSHHHHHHHHHH
Cold air came out of the man’s body and spread throughout the church, and soon the entire church was covered with ice.
As cold air came out of his mouth, the man said, “Cocoon.”
“What the fuck…” One of the men spoke as he looked out the window and saw that the ancient desert landscape of grass was covered by a gigantic wall of ice.
An ice throne was created in front of the cross, and the man sat down, crossed his legs, then placed a hand on his chin as if bored.
“…” The woman looked at this sight with her mouth open in sheer shock, as the sight of the man sitting in front of the Cross made the woman think; ‘An angel…?’
But she was dead wrong, the man could be anything, but he was definitely not an angel.
