Chapter 150: The Sweet Taste of Revenge.
In front of a mansion that looked like it had been abandoned for over six months.
“Why did you come back here, Master…?” Maria asked in a neutral tone, though it was pretty apparent that she was feeling uncomfortable being in this place.
“…” Sasha didn’t answer Maria’s question and just remained silent as she stared at the battered mansion with various complex feelings running through her heart.
“… You know…” She spoke in a neutral tone of voice, but one that carried a coldness that sent shivers down Maria’s spine, “Sometimes the best revenge is not torture or the death of your enemy.”
“…” Maria was silent.
“The best revenge is one that completely destroys the ‘I’ of your enemy…”
“…I don’t understand what you mean, Master…” Maria was cautious with her words.
Without even turning around, Sasha continued, “Six months have passed, and even after so long, I cannot forget that incident… Wrong, it’s impossible for me to forget that incident.”
“Just thinking about what happened fills my heart with hate, and I believe simple revenge isn’t something I want…” Sasha looked at Maria with her eyes glowing blood red.
“My maid, how are you feeling right now?”
“…Huh?” Maria didn’t understand Sasha’s sudden question.
“Six months have passed; you are no longer a human; you’re not a vampire either. You’re a failed subspecies of vampires. You’re a Ghoul…”
“A species that, in order to survive and maintain rationality, has to feed on human flesh. Tell me, my maid,”
“How do you feel about becoming a monster that needs to eat human flesh to survive?”
Maria bit her lip but couldn’t resist her master’s order:
“…I feel horrible, I feel like I’m losing the real ‘me’… It’s a scary feeling. I have a hard time thinking about my life before I became this monster…”
“… That is a good thing.” Sasha smiled coldly.
“…” Maria bit her lip and seemed to be quite frustrated with the whole situation.
“You know, in the Clan Scarlett’s library, I had plenty of opportunities to study more about Ghouls,” Sasha remembered the days she’d wasted studying this subspecies of vampires.
Those events took place in the six months that Victor was training with Scathach. In those six months, in addition to training to master her powers, she also studied a lot.
“…?” Maria looked at Sasha, confused.
“An interesting thing about Ghouls is that they only care about what they eat; it’s a pretty selfish species.”
“When you see a strong vampire or a special human, don’t you feel an instinctive urge to eat that individual?”
“!!!” Maria opened her eyes a little,
“When you’re around my husband, don’t you feel like tasting his flesh? And at the same time, do you not feel that you want to serve him with all your being?”
“…That’s…” She was going to say that was true, but she quickly snapped her mouth shut.
“I have a chance.” Sasha started walking towards the mansion.
“…” Maria started to follow her.
“My husband’s presence is slowly influencing your thoughts. Even though you have the desire to eat my husband’s flesh, you also feel the desire to serve him.”
“A King Ghoul is looking for a king to serve, a very ironic and interesting situation.” Despite having the name ‘King’ in their species, they were still a subspecies of vampires, they’re a defective race, and as someone who has the blood of the Night King, Victor had an inherent charm that appealed to all creatures of the night that were related to vampires.
How did Sasha know about Victor’s blood? That’s simple. When Victor, Sasha, Ruby, and Violet slept together before coming to the human world, Victor explained what he had discovered to his wives.
And knowing this information, Sasha thought about the hypothesis that she had just talked about.
“… That’s wrong, I’m not looking for a king-.” She wanted to deny Sasha’s words.
“Tell me, my maid. What is the name of the person you love the most?” Sasha asked without turning around.
“…Huh?” Maria stopped walking.
Sasha turned and looked at Maria, “Answer me.” She ordered.
“I…-” Maria tried to answer her master’s question, but nothing came out of her mouth.
Her head was empty.
“… What is happening? Why can’t I remember…?” Maria’s expression began to panic.
“What’s his name? What’s his name!?” Maria put her hands on her head and tried to remember the past, but she couldn’t remember, she had never stopped to think about it since she thought she could never forget her ‘god’.
However, the only thing on her mind now was feeding on more humans.
‘My wait has paid off.’ Sasha flashed a big sadistic smile when she saw Maria’s condition.
“As I said, sometimes the best revenge isn’t torture or death…” Sasha’s smile only grew and grew.
“Tell me, my maid.”
“How does it feel to forget about the most important person in your life?”
Maria looked at Sasha, and, when she saw the big distorted smile on Sasha’s face, she muttered in fear:
“Monster…” And those words only made Sasha’s smile grow even more expansive.
It was pretty evident that she was enjoying the current situation.
…
“That’s it! That’s it!” Leona suddenly rose from her chair and began pounding on the table, demanding answers.
“What is this about being a Count!?”
She couldn’t understand it; this didn’t make any sense! Her friend disappeared for six months, and he became a vampire Count, beings who were said to be like walking atomic bombs! How did he achieve that!?
“…” Mizuki looked at Victor with an even more interested look since she wanted to know how he did it too.
Victor scratched his cheek and said, “Well, I just went to the king’s castle and challenged him… And somehow, it happened.”
“…” An awkward silence descended on the spot.
Everyone looked to Violet for an answer while their faces said, he didn’t do that, right?
“He’s not lying,” Violet spoke.
“…” They opened their mouths in pure shock.
“…Hmm, the king is that one, right? The Big Boss, the one with the biggest dick, the one who is the progenitor of the entire race of vampires?” Fred spoke.
“…” What is this description? Everyone but Victor thought at the same time.
“… Pfft… HAHAHAHAHA!” Victor couldn’t help but laugh a lot, “You’re correct; he’s that guy.”
“Dude, you’re crazy… Why did you attack him?” Fred couldn’t understand Victor’s thought process. Why would he willingly poke a dragon with a short stick? Is he crazy?
“Well, I wanted to catch a glimpse of the top.”
“…?” Fred didn’t understand what Victor meant.
“He’s the strongest vampire, you know? Aren’t you interested?” Victor spoke with a strange look like he couldn’t understand why no one understood him.
“Of course not! Who is mad enough to attack the king of an entire race in his own castle?!” Fred yelled because, for him, that kind of attitude was just asking to be killed! His friend is crazy!
“…” Edward, Leona, Mizuki, and even Violet couldn’t help nodding their heads in agreement with Fred’s words.
“…Hmm, me?” Victor pointed to himself as he smiled innocently.
“Sigh…” Somehow Fred felt very tired.
“…I don’t know how to say this, but somehow, this is a lot like you.” Edward flashed a small smile.
“What do you mean?” Mizuki asked Edward.
“…” Edward looked at Victor as if asking permission to say something.
Victor nodded in agreement since he really didn’t care that much, even if Mizuki was an ‘enemy’ general, knowing this information wouldn’t change anything.
After all, he was a completely different person than he was in the past… At least, that’s what he thought of himself.
“Victor was always a man who gave me a feeling of someone who liked to fight. Even when he watched UFC with me when we were younger, he always had a little smile on his face like he was enjoying what he was seeing.”
“Oh… He was always like this, huh?” Mizuki said and felt like she got some useful information, that kind of information said a lot about the current Count’s personality.
Basically, he was a battle maniac, something the Hunters would want to avoid at all costs. After all, this type of individual was just too irritating to deal with…
“… I do not remember this,” Victor spoke.
“Well, you were very focused on the fights in the past.” Edward continued.
“Oh…” Victor thought it made sense, considering he tends to forget about things when focused on something fun.
“But this is a weird situation; I never thought a vampire would grow up with werewolves.” Mizuki completely misunderstood the situation.
“… Well, we are special.” Victor chuckled and didn’t correct her misunderstanding.
“…” Leona and Edward nodded their heads, confirming Victor’s words.
“Talk is good and all, but bitch, isn’t it time for you to go home?” Violet suddenly spoke because she couldn’t stand her jealousy anymore.
“Huh?” Mizuki looked at Violet.
“Take this man with you and go have fun; he seems quite interested in your breasts.” Violet pointed to Fred, who was occasionally staring at Mizuki’s breasts.
He was trying to cover it up, but he wasn’t doing a good job.
“…” Mizuki looked at Fred with an annoyed look.
“…What? You cannot blame a virgin man for this! Do you know how difficult it is to breathe the same air as a seductive Milf!? And I’m still waiting for my baptism! I want to take a bath with the sacred liquids!”
Veins started to pop in Mizuki’s head, “Forget about this sacred liquid thing! If you don’t forget…” Her eyes glittered dangerously:
“I will cut your dick!”
“HIII!” Fred suddenly got up, stood at attention, and then saluted like a soldier.
“Yes, Mom! I will stop! I promise I’ll never look at your breasts again and imagine me playing with them and doing this and that!”
“…” Victor, Leona, and Edward facepalmed.
‘This idiot…’ The three of them thought at the same time.
“He just dug his own grave, huh?” Violet laughed in amusement.
Mizuki’s face took on a slight shade of red, “B-Bastard! I’ll kill you!”
BOOOOM!
She hit the ice table, downright furious!
“That’s it; I’m out.” Fred ran out of the store.
“Why are you running!? Let me cut your dick!” Mizuki climbed onto the table and ran towards Fred.
“N-Nooooo!” Fred quickly ran out of the store!
“Police, Police! I’m being chased by a hot milf! Help me!” He started yelling for everyone to hear.
“S-Shut-up! Stop yelling! You bastard!” Mizuki started chasing Fred.
Sigh…
“I can’t let that fool die; I’ll go get him…” Victor sighed, but he didn’t seem very motivated as he got up from his chair.
“That’s true; even though he’s a fool, he’s still our friend.” Leona agreed with Victor, but despite saying that, she didn’t get up to help Fred…
“I will go too.” Edward stood up.
“Oh?” Victor was interested now, considering he wanted to see the werewolf’s abilities.
“While I’m gone.” He looked at Violet, “Honey. Can you take care of Zack?”
“Sure, but… will he accept this?” Violet looked at Zack.
“Meow?” Zack looked at Violet too.
“Meow.” Translation: Take care of me, Madam.
He was a gentleman cat…
“It seems so.” Victor displayed an amused smile.
“Okay, I’ll take care of him…” Violet displayed a gentle smile.
“Let’s go.” Victor looked at Edward,
“Okay.”
Soon the two tall men exited the store, and the moment they left the store, they disappeared.
Leona looked at Violet, who was stroking Zack, and realized she was alone with the woman…
