Chapter 435: The meeting. 3
The ecosystem of this place is a mess for races that are used to Earth.
Vampires don’t mind that since, as a race of the night, they like the night. And they have a natural resistance to the cold, not to mention that, from childhood, vampires are inherently strong, and these beasts don’t bother them that much.
“You know that unless there is a method of creating an ideal ‘place’ for these races, it’s impossible for them to move here, right?”
“Yes.” The two answered Vlad’s question.
“Agnes.”
“…” Agnes’ body trembled slightly when she heard her name coming out of Victor’s mouth, as she looked at the man:
“…What?”
“The territory of Clan Snow and Clan Fulger are the best places for the races of Earth.”
“…But due to what I’m thinking, I thought to do it in Snow Clan territory.”
“… What are you thinking?”
“On creating a sun.”
“……” An awkward silence fell over the room.
“Wa-What? … I’m sorry, but I seem to have heard it wrong?” Agnes asked again.
“Like I said, I want to make a sun, it won’t be a real star, but something made with the powers of the Snow Clan.”
Victor raised his finger, and a fireball started to be created in his hand. At first, it looked like a normal fireball, but slowly, the fireball condensed and slowly became a mini yellow sun.
“Like this.”
“…”
Ignoring the silence and the looks of disbelief from Agnes, Victor continued:
“We will create a dome city next to the Snow Clan, and this ‘sun’ will be the light source for that city.” Victor started to explain his idea to the city he was planning.
After explaining the basic plans, the counts, the king, and Alexios looked at Victor with shocked expressions.
What was normal? What Victor was talking about was something very futuristic… But it wasn’t impossible if you combined the Witches’ technology and the Snow Clan’s powers.
“…just how long have you been thinking about this?”
“From the moment I thought about building my territory.” Victor replied Alexios.
“…Were you planning to recruit other races to your territory from the beginning?”
“….” Victor just smiled and didn’t say anything, but it was obvious that the answer was yes.
Victor glanced slightly at Scathach, who was looking at him, and flashed a small smile:
‘To be honest, I didn’t want to depend on witches, but since I have witches as subordinates, I’ll make good use of them… Although I feel that runes would do a better job than the witches’ magic.’ In his quest to grow stronger, Victor came across the knowledge of runes.
Upon studying a bit about the runes intro and remembering Scathach’s show of power, Victor realized how broken this shit was.
You are practically writing what you want into reality.
You wrote down the cause and reaction of what you wanted, and if the rune had ‘energy’ to sustain it, the effect was immediate.
Scathach’s strongest technique is a combination of her knowledge of runes and her ice power, and by using herself as a source of power, she was able to create that ice dragon.
“…I’ll write it down.” Alexios spoke.
“Okay.” Victor just laughed as he put his finger down. He wasn’t going to move and deal his cards, saying his idea was one thing, but implementing that idea was another story.
If he does it, he just plans to do it in his future territory.
He just said that now to Vlad to rack his brains and try to do something similar; ‘With your resources and connection, it should be easy, right?’
And consequently, by watching what he was doing, Victor could learn.
Yes, he was essentially treating the king of an entire race as his guinea pig.
“…” Vlad’s smile tightened. He wasn’t stupid and realized that if he used Victor’s idea, he’d probably fail sometimes, and he’ll need the Snow Clan’s help, and in the state Agnes is in now, anything Victor asks of her, the woman will give him.
Not to mention that he was the daughter’s husband, meaning the information would fall into his hands automatically.
… Luckily, he doesn’t have to think about it now.
He will leave that problem to his future self.
“Scathach?”
“My suggestion is simple, let the chaos ensue and take the chance to weaken some factions.”
“…Oh?” Victor and Vlad looked at the woman with interested faces.
“The Norse pantheon and the Greek pantheon are just two fat sheep waiting to be plundered, and if the Diablos invasion grows to the point of infiltrating the realm of the gods, we can use this opportunity to steal valuable items.”
“… Whooa, look at this bitch, talking like a real thief.” Agnes spoke.
“What? Did you not like it?”
“I didn’t say that…” Agnes smiled.
“Your suggestion in this case is to just let him do what he wants?”
“Yes.”
“…Hmm, I have a better plan.” Victor laughed.
Scathach looked at her disciple with an amused look, and when she heard Victor’s words, she couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
“Refuge all connected humans deep into Nightingale, as most are rich, special people, take all their wealth and money, then store it all in Frost Bank and Nightingale National Bank.” Victor tosses the card to Vlad.
“….” Agnes raises her eyebrow when she hears what Victor says.
“Make these humans transfer your company headquarters to Nightingale and, consequently, your employees will also come with the offer of a job promotion or something.”
“We’re going to create a gigantic seaside city, and we’re going to take all these employees who don’t know anything about the supernatural in that place and slowly introduce them to the supernatural world.”
“Snow Clan lives close to the shore, so making another city a few KM away is not a big problem. We just have to periodically clean up the sea monsters or build a barrier.”
“… It will not work-.” Alexios was about to speak, but Victor interrupted them.
“Just promise 100 years of zero taxes or something for the city. It will work as long as the king is willing to bleed money.”
“…”
“For a human, 100 years is a long time, but for us, it will pass in the blink of an eye. The important thing now is to attract these humans here.”
Victor began to explain his plans which may sound ridiculous and too grandiose or could even be called too futuristic… But with the necessary sacrifice [Money], they can turn that plan into reality, and guess what? Vampires were filthy rich.
The reason Victor was saying this? It was to grow the influence of Clan Fulger and Snow, the Clan of his wives.
And consequently, his influence will increase without him doing anything.
“Stop, Stop, Stop.”
“Hmm?”
Vlad touched his hand to his head, feeling like he had a major headache now. He may be a wise and experienced king, but what Victor was talking about now was just too unreal.
“Do you know how hard it is to do all this?”
“But it’s not impossible, right?”
“This will take a lot of time! And the invasion is knocking at our door.” Vlad stopped talking when he saw something thrown his way.
Vlad picked up the item and saw what it was, “…A witch card?”
“A witch who specialized in building things, with a snap of her fingers, she made a reinforced basement for me.”
“….” Vlad could only shut up.
“Witches are arrogant, greedy whores, who do everything for their own benefit, not caring about anyone… But no one can deny that they are useful.”
“….” Everyone nodded, and slowly a smile couldn’t help but appear on everyone’s face.
‘And in a way, witches are like vampires. None of them are good people.’ Victor chuckled inwardly.
This world was really fucked up. There were no good organizations, no greater purpose, no hero or villain, all that existed was a large-scale interest game.
And he understood that very well.
Even now, a possible invasion that would affect the whole world will happen, and they were here discussing how to take advantage of this situation.
The thought of ‘helping others’ never crossed anyone’s mind here.
Victor and everyone in this room were planning to use this situation to their maximum benefit.
Not just him, all the beings who knew about this invasion and the beings cooperating with the demons were all planning to take full advantage of this situation.
The giant cake known as ‘humanity’ and ‘earth’ was the prize everyone wanted.
This was a massive war of global proportions, a war that took place at the time of Genesis, and the main protagonists of this war were the angels, demons, and the Inquisition.
The rest are all poor victims who will be caught in the crossfire.
