Chapter 429: Ruby’s Obsession.
With Ruby in the human world.
Crack.
Ruby’s cup of red tea fell to the floor as she opened her eyes in shock.
“Lady Ruby, what happened?” Kaguya, who was beside her, asked in a neutral tone when she saw the woman’s expression.
“Haa… Ha… HA… HAHAHAHA.”
“???” Kaguya looked at Ruby with confused eyes and a slightly scared expression. What happened for her to start laughing like that?
Ruby’s broken laugh echoed for a few minutes until her gaze turned cold again, and she spoke:
“…That woman, she really went and did it.”
CRACK
Ruby put some force on the table she was sitting at, and the table sank a little while erupting in small, spider-web-shaped craters.
When Ruby heard about Natashia’s request, at first, she, Violet, and Sasha wanted to refuse.
After all, what kind of woman would just give her husband to another?
But unfortunately, Natashia’s situation had already reached a point of no return in several possible ways, thinking about the conversation she had with Sasha and Violet:
“Victor, my mother, and I practically took baths naked with each other, and that day we were very ‘free’… Nothing happened that day just because of my husband’s self-control, his respect for me, and his promise to give me an appropriate ‘date’.”
“Something I really appreciated. Although I was frustrated that our ‘date’ took so long to happen because of various issues,”
“…I had the best ‘date’ I could ask for.”
“….” Ruby and Violet smiled slightly when they saw Sasha’s happy smile.
“By the way, your mom was in the bath with me and my mom, Ruby.” Sasha laughed lightly and broke the silence.
“….” Ruby’s eyes couldn’t help but twitch. She knew her mother liked her husband, as it was painfully obvious, and that she just didn’t realize it herself.
And with Scathach’s statement that happened when Violet threw the ‘truth’ in her face, it was no exaggeration to say that it was only a matter of time before they came together.
She also heard from her husband and mother that when they were training for six months, the woman would often ask him to ‘massage’ her with the technique she taught him, and they would shower together too.
When they came out of training, they got so used to each other’s presence that they already did it unconsciously. Ruby had already lost count of how many times she, her mother, and her husband bathed together. Her husband offered his neck to Scathach to drink his blood, and, during all those times, the woman always climbed on top of him.
It was an automatic action.
And often, she, Sasha, and Violet were there when that happened too.
‘It was only because of my mother’s density, which was equivalent to a black hole, that she didn’t realize her feelings. From the moment they came out of their six-month training, their relationship was no longer that of disciple and master, it was something more.’
‘And Natashia’s case was always open. The woman never hid her feelings for Victor, everyone close to my husband knew about her feelings, and unlike my mother, Natashia is a decisive woman. She would always go after what she wants.’
‘An attitude I can respect a lot.’ Ruby smiled a little.
“….” Focusing on their connection, she felt four people, five counting herself.
She already knew about Agnes’ complicated case and the chat ‘group’ that currently consisted of just Ruby, Sasha, and Violet.
It was decided that Violet would take care of this situation. After all, Agnes was her mother.
Ignoring Agnes, she focused her attention on the new connection.
Feeling the woman’s feelings, all she felt was;
Happiness, love, an unstoppable obsession, and… Peace?
‘Why peace? What happened?’
Thinking about it, Ruby immediately understood the problem.
‘Now that the ritual has been completed, the old connections that Natashia had with her husbands have been severed and transferred to Victor, consequently, she is no longer suffering from bloodlust either.’
Even though Victor’s blood greatly helped this problem, overall, it only lessened the effects of bloodlust to a manageable level.
It did not completely eliminate the blood dependency.
It was similar to what was going on with Scathach. Victor regularly gave his blood to Scathach, and because of that, the woman’s bloodlust subsided and became more controllable.
But that was not to say that this bloodlust completely disappeared. It was still there but just suppressed.
‘I see… She’s finally at peace, huh.’
Now that she had joined her husband, Natashia had achieved what she’d always wanted, her happiness and, consequently, peace from her bloodlust.
“…” Kaguya just kept watching Ruby. Despite not showing as many emotions as Sasha and Violet, Kaguya learned to ‘read’ the mood when it came to Ruby.
Her face didn’t change in most situations, and because of that, it was hard to tell what this woman was thinking or feeling.
But who was Kaguya? She was a Maid, so she always kept her eye on her former master’s friends and currently her master’s wife.
Ruby rose from her chair in the lab she was in, and her eyes were as cold as ever, but a glint of determination was present in them.
She started walking towards the lab exit.
‘Now that Natashia has been added, Darling has gained another weakness. He needs to drink my blood, the blood of Violet, Sasha, Natashia, and possibly Agnes often… Sigh, so many people, all just to not go crazy with bloodlust.’
Passing through the lab door, she walked towards the hallways, then turned right towards her personal quarters.
‘If any of these women disappear or don’t give him their blood regularly, he will get lost in bloodlust, and his mentality, no matter how strong, will suffer some damage.’
Ruby still remembered the time when she and her husband were separated from Violet and Sasha. At that time, the person who suffered the most from this separation was undoubtedly Victor.
Both emotionally and physiologically.
He just managed to put up with his bloodlust and not completely lose himself in it because Ruby was always around to contain his urges.
The Ritual transferred its ‘wish’ to its partners, and that was a weakness since if one of those partners disappeared, the other would go mad over time.
An example would be if Victor suddenly disappeared.
The women he was connected with would suffer from bloodlust, and no matter how much blood they drank, they’d fail to satisfy their ‘desires’.
The same goes for Victor. In fact, Victor’s case was worse because the women were married to him, not to each other.
Consequently, he would not be satisfied with just drinking the blood of one of his wives. He had to drink the blood of his five wives for his urges to disappear.
If either of his wives disappeared, the likelihood of any mental degradation her husband would experience would be very high.
This whole situation was created because of faulty magic. After all, the ritual was created with the ‘prediction’ that the Noble Vampire would only have three partners at most.
Which in most situations was true, considering the Nobles, despite having a ‘harem’, the official wives or husbands were only three. It was rarely the occasion that this number was exceeded.
The rest of the ‘harem’ were just concubines, and whoever managed this harem was the main wife or the main husband.
‘In the future, my mother will be added, and with that, there will be six wives. The burden on my husband’s back will be very high, and it is not guaranteed that the wives will always be with him. After all, we have our own responsibilities and work.’
‘I even considered changing the magic of the ritual since this problem was simple to solve. Instead of forcing our bloodlust only on our husband, we will share the ‘burden’. This desire would be shared by everyone in the connection, and consequently, that weakness would be eliminated.’
But… That solution was just a distant dream. You can’t easily change a spell that was done together with the Vampire King and the Witch Queen.
It was simply impossible. Even the Witches, who were Ruby’s subordinates, said so.
‘The only one who can change this ritual is the Witch Queen herself.’
Ruby entered her personal room, a room she had never used; after all, she always slept in her husband’s bed.
Walking towards the closet, she opened the door.
And soon, she and Kaguya saw thousands of Manga.
All the Manga she didn’t have time to take to Nightingale were stored in this room.
Yes, there was more of her collection than in just this room.
Ruby crouched down, sifted through for what she wanted, and then found it.
Lightly picking up volume 6 of a Manga called: “I love you.”
A clicking sound was heard, and soon the entire shelf where the full volume of “I love you” disappeared as if by magic, and only the wall was shown.
Ruby stuck her hand against the wall as a magic circle appeared and scanned Ruby’s hand. A few seconds passed, and the magic circle disappeared, and then her hand disappeared.
Feeling various objects in her hand, Ruby smiled faintly.
This is where Ruby kept her future plans and ideas for future plans. This was a magical compartment that Ruby asked to be made with her blood and fingerprint, so only she had access to this place.
Picking up a pipe-shaped object, Ruby removed her hand from the wall.
Looking at the object in her hand, Ruby saw that it was a magic scroll, a scroll her husband had given her when he destroyed the Demons in Greece.
At first, Ruby didn’t know what it was, but after showing it to Esther, the woman identified it as a scroll.
She opened a scroll, and a plan she thought of during the year and six months she was with her husband was exposed.
And on the first line of the sheet was the title of the plan:
“Harem Plan.”
She looked down further and saw the names of all the women Victor had a certain level of intimacy with and the women Victor gave his blood to.
The names of all the Maids were on this scroll, as well as Ophis’ and Nero’s names, everyone was here.
And for every woman, she had something written.
Thus:
Kaguya Blank, the Maid, and currently my husband’s Chief Maid:
Danger Level: SSS.
Note: It is impossible to escape my husband’s charm, the more Kaguya interacts with him, the more likely she will eventually fall in love with him.
Main Weakness: She is very loyal, someone with mind control like Roberta or with charm control like Aphrodite can influence her, and she won’t know… [Find ways to avoid this possible future.]
Just below that line was.
Secondary weaknesses.
And here were all her physical weaknesses listed.
Soon after, her entire growth was documented since she came into contact with Victor, even her bust increase was not ignored.
The danger level meant that if this woman cheated on her husband, the damage she would do to him and everyone around her was very high.
Kaguya was SSS because everyone trusted her, Victor especially. He trusts her and never questions her.
Ruby’s eyes darted to all the women and then came to the main part, which was what she was looking for.
Her smile grew a little:
‘To prevent a possible deterioration of my husband’s mentality, this plan must be put into action.
Ascension of the Vampire Count:
My husband must grow his Royal Influence and create his territory. In the future, when this territory is created, we will make this place a new ‘government’.
Clan Fulger, Snow, Scarlett, and Adrastea must support this new government, effectively making a new ‘core’ of Nightingale.
Contingency: If the Vampire King tries to interfere, convince Ophis or his other daughters to be a part of this plan. Sacrifices are necessary to avoid the old monster.
Note: Additional plans or possible plan changes. [Don’t get stuck on that plan or obsessed with it, you should know that you can’t predict the future.]
As the plan was just a draft, and she couldn’t predict that much into the future, she left this note so her future self would know what to do.
But she had an ultimate goal:
Ultimate goal: To have all the wives in one place.
“Somehow, I can’t help but start to feel excited~.” Ruby can’t help but laugh.
