Chapter 503: A Marriage and a New Wife.
Today was going to be a typical day for Ruby, Sasha, and Natashia, and they were swamped doing their things and getting ready for the eventual duty of ‘leading’ the Clan they were heirs to.
After all, the three Countesses, their mothers, would soon be traveling to the meeting of Supernatural Beings with Vlad, the King of Vampires.
With their strongest weapons away from Nightingale, the country would be unprotected, and because of that, they had to make sure they didn’t have any loose ends.
Unfortunately, this was a duty that was only up to Sasha and Natashia. After all, Ruby was too busy dealing with matters in the human world, and Clan Scarlett didn’t need Ruby. After all, Siena was there to solve any kind of problem that might occur.
And the Maids were helping Siena 100% in this challenging task.
Even though all the girls had been told about Victor’s recent exploits in… Hmm, planting seeds in the fertile soil of the Strongest Female Vampire?
Yes, that’s a good analogy.
Cough, despite their knowledge of this fact, the women mentioned thought they weren’t going to be in for any additional surprises; after all, it had only been one day since the ‘training’ incident!
Not even Victor was so adept at causing so much chaos in such a short time, right?…
… Right?
Well, the feelings they were feeling now proved otherwise.
Victor was indeed an expert at causing chaos, both emotionally and physically.
“…Agnes broke up with my husband, and the next moment, she remarried him, and this time, the connection has become stronger than the last…” Natashia muttered as she looked at Sasha, who was staring at an innocent wall with a blank stare containing several complicated emotions.
The main one being anger.
Natashia could clearly feel her daughter’s anger through their connection with Victor. She was very angry.
“What is Violet doing!? Why didn’t she do anything!?” This wasn’t like Violet. Knowing her friend, she would definitely do something.
Did she soften because it involved her mother?
…Wait, wasn’t this situation familiar somehow?
Sasha looked at her mother with a dry look, and when she saw her mother’s thoughtful gaze, she understood something.
‘That bastard, he completed the mother-daughter set! Now even Violet has not been spared!’
Sasha wasn’t stupid and could understand what was going on, knowing Victor’s actions against Adonis, Agnes, and Violet.
She knew her husband had felt a little…guilty regarding all this.
The only people who knew what happened to Adonis that day were Victor’s Wives, the Snow Clan’s Maid, Hilda, and the Vampire King, Vlad.
Natashia as a new wife was also made aware of what happened.
Of course, Goddesses like Aphrodite and Persephone, who knew Adonis knew what had happened too.
“Mah, mah, no need to be so angry.”
“…” Sasha looked at her mother with a narrowed look.
“Fufufu, isn’t that interesting, my daughter?”
“…What?”
“A single Vampire achieved an impossible achievement.”
“He was able to bond with the heiress and leaders of the respective most powerful clans in the Nightingale.”
“This isn’t funny!”
“Of course it is, fufufu~” Natashia was in full provocation mode. If someone had said in the past that a Vampire would be able to do what Victor did, she would laugh that person to death. After all, all the women involved had levels of paranoia, madness, jealousy, and problems far beyond the ordinary.
A typical Vampire wouldn’t be able to handle that much bullshit.
‘Officially’ speaking, Scathach wasn’t yet a part of it, but they all knew it was only a matter of time before Victor got stronger to defeat the proud ass of the Strongest Female Vampire. It may take a while, but it will eventually happen.
“And to make it all better, he did all this unintentionally, just being who he is.”
“Pfftt… Hahahahaha~”
“Mother!” Sasha wasn’t amused at all. Think about her situation, okay? What would she say if she decided to introduce her husband to her friends in the future?
‘Hey, that’s my Husband, and my mom’s too!’… Yes, she couldn’t do that.
It’s not like she has friends other than Violet and Ruby! Unfortunately, most Vampires from lower-level Clans only looked at Sasha as a way to use her to get closer to Clan Fulger.
Because of this, she couldn’t make friends with other women.
… Not that she wanted to either, after all, what if those bitches approached Victor?
In fact, she wanted to. But at the same time, no… Ugh, maybe she’d kill them all?
Sasha was quite confused, as her thoughts were going back and forth in circles, and she didn’t even know what she was thinking anymore.
And that sight made Natashia laugh even more.
And as she laughed, she thought:
‘If Victor were a cunning bastard, women like Scathach, Ruby, Agnes, and myself would hardly like him.’
Violet and Sasha didn’t count because they are the most naive in this regard, Violet being the worst of them, for obvious reasons we all know.
What attracted these girls to Victor was how he led his life; he was intense, fun, genuine, and concerned about the people around him.
He was just genuinely enjoyable to be around.
At least, that’s what Natashia thought.
“Ugh, I don’t even want to think about it anymore.” Sasha’s brain short-circuited.
“Fufufufu.” Natashia’s smile grew when she saw her daughter’s anguished face, and she thought internally:
‘I want to see her reaction when my future daughter joins this mess~’ It was safe to say she had a sadistic desire to provoke people.
In a way, she liked watching the circus burn, but not in the same way that a particular crazy clown with a bat fetish would.
“By the way, mother. Weren’t you heading to the Snow Clan?” Sasha didn’t want to deal with this, so she changed the subject.
“Yes, I was, but when I felt that sensation, I quickly returned to the Clan. I needed to check on my daughter.” Although she was planning certain things for her sister, her daughter was more important.
Sasha felt sweet inside, and it was worth saying that she really liked how her mother treated her.
“…And because of that, my aunt is acting like this…” Sasha commented as she looked at Victoria, who was lying on the couch with her eyes rolling around like she was sick.
“Yeah, I kind of came back too quickly, and she didn’t have time to get used to it. She felt like she was on a pretty intense roller coaster.”
“…” Sasha sent a sympathetic look to her aunt, as the woman seemed to suffer a lot at the hands of her mother.
Natashia seemed to think about something, and soon her eyes sparkled with amusement.
“Jeff!”
“Y-Yes!”
“Why are you calling our butler?” Sasha asked curiously.
“You will see.”
“…” Sasha raised her brow when she saw her mother’s amused face. She knew the woman was up to something, but as usual, she was too curious to intervene.
Sasha didn’t want to accept it,
But she knew that she and her mother shared the same nature, although Natashia was much worse than Sasha.
A few seconds passed, and Clan Larkin’s butler entered the office.
Clan Larkin was a Clan that exclusively served only Clan Fulger.
It was a subordinate Clan, just like the Blank Clan that Kaguya was a part of.
“Jeff, I’m going out with my daughter and sister for a while. I want you to take care of everything.”
“Eh…?” Jeff and Sasha looked at the woman with shocked faces.
“W-Wait, Countess Annasthashia-.”
“I already told you; just call me Natashia.”
“Hmm, I-…Cough. Countess Natashia, you must not go! I’m not fit to take care of the place while you’re gone; at least let Miss Victoria!”
“Mah, Mah, don’t panic; most of the big problems are already solved. You merely have to keep an eye on everything, and we won’t take forever.”
“Ugh…Lady Sasha, say something, please.” Jeff was a competent butler, but he really didn’t want to take on that kind of responsibility.
Any mistake that happened would be his responsibility!
“Mother, this is very irresponsible-.” When Sasha was going to start lecturing Natashia.
The woman interrupted her saying,
“So you don’t want to visit Victor?”
“….” Sasha immediately stopped talking.
Natashia’s smile grew:
“Well, that’s too bad; looks like I’ll have to go alone with my sister-.”
“Jeff, Clan Fulger is yours.”
“…Eh?”
Sasha immediately covered herself with Lightning and disappeared, leaving behind streaks of lightning.
“Fufufu~.” Lightning covered Natashia, and just like her daughter, she disappeared, carrying Victoria like a sack of potatoes.
“Ugh? Not again—-!!!!” Victoria’s voice was the only thing Jeff heard.
“Huh…?” Looking around the office with no people present, Jeff looked like a man who had come home only to find his house had been robbed.
He was unresponsive for a long time and only woke up to reality when a Clan Fulger Maid touched Jeff lightly.
“….?” Looking at Maid, Jeff saw her carrying a stack of paper.
“Where do I put this, Jeff?” she asked in a neutral tone.
“…I-.” When Jeff was going to say something, he soon saw other Maids approaching with different piles of paper.
He took a quick look at the documents and saw that they were superfluous documents, meaning they weren’t that important, but they needed the full attention of a representative of Clan Fulger.
Due to the espionage event they had in Clan Fulger, this system where everything was resolved by the leader was implemented for the time being until they had a permanent solution.
“Just put everything in the office, I’ll check everything.”
“Yes!” The maids spoke.
‘Ugh, this is going to be a long day….’ Jeff thought to himself.
…
In the basement, a woman with long white hair was being hugged by a tall man.
After Victor and Agnes finished the ritual, the process of completing everything was simple. They had to drink each other’s blood to make it official and to establish the connection.
Typically, newlyweds just need a little sip.
But because of Agnes’ hunger and Victor’s own, they had been eating for quite some time.
A few minutes passed until,
“Haaah.” Agnes stopped biting Victor and let out a long breath. Her eyes were pure blood red, her face was red, her breathing was heavy, and she had a lost look as she looked at Victor.
‘This blood is just too delicious…’ It was as if she had only been drinking regular water all her life, and for the first time, she experienced the sweet taste of juice made from the finest fruits.
It was simply beyond compare!
‘I understand now when he said there was no going back…’ Agnes began to understand why Victor had given her several warnings.
‘How jealous… My daughter was having this for herself…’ When she thought about it, she quickly tried to shake her head but couldn’t because Victor was still drinking her blood.
‘He’s insatiable, fufu~’ She chuckled inwardly.
When Victor finished drinking Agnes’ blood, he looked up.
Agnes had to take a deep breath and hold her breath because she was startled a little by the intense look on his face.
And she could feel through their connection his desire for her, and it was like a giant inferno burning with desire to have the woman in his arms.
But, with a show of self-control, Victor bit his tongue. Through the pain, he managed to focus his thoughts away from those feelings and returned to normal.
Victor walked away from Agnes. The woman didn’t stop him from doing anything as she was simply too shocked to do anything.
She’d never felt such…overwhelming desire before.
“Huff…Huff…” He was trying to control his breathing.
At that moment, Agnes awoke from her stupor, and like Victor, she started trying to compose herself.
‘… What was that…? That feeling… Do they always feel that?’ Even with her erratic breathing, Agnes’s brain was spinning like crazy in an attempt to make sense of this situation.
‘I haven’t felt this before. Has anything changed?’ She questioned herself, and soon a hypothesis popped into her mind.
‘Somehow, I think our old connection wasn’t ‘true’ in the real sense of the word, and because of that, now that we have a real connection, I can feel more things…’ Agnes, when looking at Victor, could feel a more ‘clear’ feeling.
As if something that was closed before was now open.
“Agnes–…”
“Yes…?”
“Control your power…”
“…?” Agnes looked to the side and opened her eyes in shock. Little fireballs were scattered all over the place, which was her power.
‘How is this possible?’ Agnes had perfect control of her fire. It had taken years of training, considering her power was simply too furious, directly affecting her emotional state.
But seeing this scene, somehow, she felt that a ‘new’ boundary was set for her.
‘…I see. Now, I understand why Scathach got stronger…’
‘Although she doesn’t have that connection yet… So it’s all because of his blood, huh…’ Agnes’ eyes narrowed when she saw small flames coming out of Victor’s arms and body.
‘By drinking my blood, did the power of fire within him grow stronger? So the same thing happened with Scathach and Natashia?’ Agnes opened her eyes in shock when she realized that this man had become stronger.
“Stop thinking bullshit. We should go upstairs,” Victor spoke.
‘I need to visit Sasha and Natashia. My bloodlust is getting unbearable, and I’m going to talk to Violet and Leona too.’ Victor thought to himself as he turned around.
Agnes woke up from her stupor and said,
“…Okay.” She didn’t complain or anything and just accepted it since she could tell Victor was holding back a lot now.
‘He’s still hungry, huh… One of the downsides of marrying multiple people with the ritual.’
