Chapter 511: Alucard, he who is loved by many and hated by more.
“The Sixth guest, straight from Nightingale, the Leader of his race, but also more than a leader. He is their First Progenitor, Vlad Dracul Tepes, the King of All Vampires.”
The moment the man’s neutral voice disappeared, darkness formed around, and a ‘being’ appeared in front of the gate.
The being that looked like a foreign entity was utterly dark, with only red eyes and sharp teeth on display.
“Fantastic as always, my friend,” Vlad commented in a monotone voice but one that contained some amusement.
The Limbo owner only flashed a small smile when he heard Vlad’s comment.
Soon, slowly, Vlad’s appearance began to emerge to the audience. Unlike how he was in Nightingale, Vlad had a completely new look.
Black hair and a not very trimmed beard, a man who looked to be in his 30s. He wore black armor with a large black cape, and a rather strange western sword was on his waist. The sword had no sheath, just the blade in a bizarre shape for a western sword.
That was his Vampire King Form.
The way the Leaders of other races knew him best.
“Grr, Vlad, you piece of shit, you’ve finally come.” Despite speaking as if annoyed, the predatory smile on Fenrir’s face was very wide, suggesting that he was quite excited.
“Hmm?” Vlad looked up, and when he saw the tall, wild-haired man, he flashed a small smile.
A smile that almost made Volk jump up and try to fight Vlad.
“Accompanying, Vlad Dracul Tepes, one of his Countesses, the woman with the Title of The Fastest Woman Alive, a Pillar of Nightingale society, the Leader of Clan Fulger.”
“Annasthashia Fulger.”
Rumble, Rumble.
A burst of golden lightning appeared, and a woman wearing a black dress appeared.
Long golden hair, red eyes, and a slightly bloodthirsty smile, a cool beauty that seemed to haunt every man present.
Zeus and Thor looked at the woman with a slight glint in their eyes. A woman who controlled lightning and was very beautiful? These two men were quite interested.
Feeling a slight sensation as if garbage was looking at her, Natashia looked up, and her red eyes looked like a black hole rotating horizontally very slowly.
“Hahaha~, it’s too bad she’s so crazy.” Thor laughed when he saw Natashia. It’s not like he hadn’t tried his luck with Natashia in the past, but the woman always rejected him, and he couldn’t force the situation because she was one of the Leaders of a powerful Faction.
He also didn’t want those two monsters targeting Norse mythology. [Vlad, and Carmila Fulger]
Although if she hadn’t been from Nightingale, the situation would have been very different.
“Who cares? She’s beautiful, and that’s all that matters.” Zeus looked at Natashia with apparent desire in his eyes. Though most of the time, he thought with his other head, he wasn’t stupid. Like Thor, he didn’t want to provoke a war with a strong Faction over a woman. It would be silly.
In Clan Fulger.
Seeing her mother giving her ‘that look’, Sasha understood what was happening.
“Mother, please behave, for God’s sake.”
“You’re asking for the impossible, you know, right?” Victoria spoke up.
“Yes… But it doesn’t hurt to dream.” Sasha wasn’t innocent, the group that went to this place was by far the most troublesome group, and Victor, Scathach, Agnes, and Natashia wouldn’t be quiet if something happened to upset them.
And considering the personality of the guests who are Faction Leaders, consequently, they were very arrogant, and the probability of causing some shit was more than 69%!
“At least she hid our treasure…” Sasha said as she looked at the two golden rings on Natashia’s fingers.
“Control yourself, Natashia. You know the Gods.” Vlad muttered in a low tone, in a manner only Natashia could hear.
“I know… That doesn’t mean I like it.” Natashia snorted in disdain.
“Accompanying Vlad Dracul Tepes, a woman who holds one of Nightingale’s most special bloodlines, the Clan that overcame the mortal weakness of Vampires, and similar to Annasthashia Fulger, being one of Nightingale’s Pillars, Leader of the Snow Clan.”
“Agnes Snow.”
FUSHHHHH.
A blazing fire rose to the Heavens, and soon a woman with long white hair, blood-red eyes, and holding a sword to her chest appeared.
When the Faction Leaders looked at Agnes’ sword, they felt a slight tremor in their souls and saw a giant dragon looking at them.
“That’s…” Zeus opened his eyes in shock. He couldn’t even admire Agnes’ beauty, as he was more concerned with the item in her hands.
“Dragon King Fafnir… So it was the Snow Clan…” Shiva commented.
“That is impossible. Even if the Snow Clan has Fire Resistance and could walk in sunlight, this resistance must not be so great that it can withstand Fafnir’s Fire.” Thor muttered.
“It’s not like they have immunity to Fire like Fire Spirits.” He continued.
“Haruna…” Kuroka whispered in a severe tone.
“Yes, it’s them… He’ll be here, I think.” Haruna couldn’t help but show a small smile, and unconsciously, her tails seemed to dance even more hypnotically.
An ear seemed to have grown out of Evie’s head, which made her turn to face the big window, and she walked towards it.
As an obedient daughter, Alice just walked beside her mother.
Ignoring everyone’s stares, Evie looked at the entrance curiously. Then, her gaze fell on Vlad for a moment, and a sneer of disdain appeared on her face. The recent incident hit several irritating points for The Queen. She really didn’t like it when the matter was not in her control.
“Accompanying Vlad Dracul Tepes, currently The Strongest Female Vampire alive, disciple of Godkiller Dun Scaith, General of Nightingale, Leader of Clan Scarlett.”
“Scathach Scarlett”
A block of ice suddenly appeared, and in the next moment, this block of ice shattered into several pieces giving a stunning display to the environment.
A woman with long red hair appeared.
In her right hand was her Spear, her personal weapon.
Scathach shook her head a little as if brushing the hair out of her face and speared the floor.
BOOOOOM.
A shock wave resounded in the place, and the woman looked straight ahead with a cold gaze.
No one was surprised by Scathach’s identity. She was very famous, but the same couldn’t be said for the Spear in her hand.
All but the participants felt a slight tremor run through their spines when they gazed upon the Spear in her hand.
“What is that?”
“…I remember her using this in the past, but it didn’t give that sinister of a feeling. What is that?” Evie muttered under her breath.
Shiva focused his attention on the Spear, and even with his sharp gaze, he couldn’t understand the Spear.
“So many runes… Did she further upgrade this Spear?” Thor couldn’t help but be in shock. It looked like he would have to talk to Odin or Freya about this issue.
Indifferent to the whispers of the participants, the Palace owner opened his mouth again.
“Following… oh?”
‘Is there still more?’ Everyone couldn’t help but think internally.
‘And what was that ‘Oh’ at the end?’ They were really curious now.
Evie and Haruna’s eyes gleamed slightly, and they looked intently at the group.
While Evie was clearly displeased and annoyed, Haruna seemed more excited, although her eagerness didn’t appear on her face.
In contrast to her, her nine tails looked even more euphoric.
“Accompanying Vlad Dracul Tepes, The Youngest Vampire Count in History…”
“!!!” When everyone heard the palace owner’s voice, they looked at the group.
“Disciple of Scathach Scarlett, a Supernova causing trouble in the Mortal World, the man who had recently caused great havoc in the Japanese Supernatural Community.”
“Hated by many…Loved by many.”
Was it their impression, or was this man paying more attention to this guest? He even seemed to speak with more emotion! But what the fuck!?
“The man the Goddess of Beauty Aphrodite has blessed, and the man she loves with all her heart.”
“…Eh?” Zeus and Thor could only say that.
“The Second Progenitor of Vampires…”
“…Excuse me?” Volk was the one who reacted.
“…Another one?” Shiva couldn’t help but open his eyes in shock. After all, this was a rare event to have two Progenitors simultaneously.
‘This piece of shit! Who loves who!?’ At Victor’s house, Renata felt a vein bulge in her head. Even though she was acting embarrassed, she was thinking about what was happening in front of her now.
‘It wasn’t enough to reveal that he is the Second Progenitor; he even put my name in the middle!’ If Victor once had a target on his back, he was now a damn pillar of light that would attract the attention of all bad things.
‘Curse this omniscience in your Domain!’ As a Titan, she knew that when an Ancient God was in his Domain, he had a certain level of awareness about who entered his Domain.
Even though the current palace was not the royal ‘Domain’ of the organizer of this meeting, it was strong enough for his ‘omniscience’ to spread to the people close to him.
At the higher levels, if you didn’t have a strong enough Divinity to reject a God’s ‘gaze’, that God would know anything about your existence just by looking at your Soul.
Something only beings like beings from Limbo could do.
Even God Kings like Zeus weren’t strong enough to protect themselves from his gaze.
And as a damn neutral force, he didn’t mind revealing important things to other factions.
As was the case with The Witch Queen’s Daughter, who practiced Black Magic, which was a Witches’ secret.
“Blessed by the Chaos Witch and loved by the woman herself, Albedo Moriarty.”
“…Huh?” Now it was Evie’s turn. Why was her mother suddenly mentioned?
“Blessed by The Mother of Night and Mother of All Creatures of The Night, Nyx.”
“What the fuck?” Zeus couldn’t maintain his calm now.
“Blessed by the Spirits of Lightning, and loved by the same.”
“…” Natashia smiled slightly when she heard this part. Since she saw Victor’s ‘status’ when he went to The Limbo Gate, she hoped that this Title was somehow related to her Clan.
“Blessed by Gaia and by The Ancestral Spirits of Animals.”
“…Not just one Entity, but two!?” Thor was gaping now.
Even Vlad was no exception. He knew his friend’s assessment was accurate, and nothing could be hidden from his gaze.
“Blessed and loved by The World Tree, Qliphoth.”
“…..” An even more absurd silence fell around them.
Even a World Tree!? And even more Qliphoth!? Eh?
“Blessed by !@@$#%” as he spoke the Entity’s name.
“Ugh.”
Everyone felt a weight fall on their shoulders, and their hearts trembled. It was as if the man had spoken a Forbidden Word.”
“Oops… Looks like I got a little carried away. Cough, continuing.”
Jeanne, who was watching this, giggled with satisfaction.
‘Fufufu, you can’t say my brother’s name without his permission, but… to think that my brother has gone this far, isn’t he very overprotective of me? Perhaps, he feels responsible for what happened…?’ Jeanne thought in melancholy.
“An Irregularity even by the standards of Noble Vampires.”
“The Fifth Pillar of Nightingale, Vampire Count…”
“Victor Alucard!”
FUSHHHHHHHHH.
Darkness, just like Vlad’s, appeared at the gate. An utterly unknown existence was standing there; the only visible things were his blood-red eyes, his sharp teeth, and the red ‘veins’ pulsing throughout his body.
“You really had to make a commotion, didn’t you?” Vlad couldn’t help but comment.
“He wouldn’t be Alucard if he didn’t make a little mess~” Natashia almost blurted out ‘my husband’. She couldn’t risk causing political trouble in Nightingale right now.
… Although Victor’s Titles had caused enough problems.
“Blame your friend. I didn’t do anything.” He spoke in a neutral tone.
Slowly, Victor’s appearance began to appear, and just like before, he was in his black suit, with white gloves, while his long black hair was utterly loose in a wild way, just like Volk.
“And to think that you were loved by so many people, my foolish disciple~.” Scathach laughed lightly.
“I am also hated by a lot more, and now I suppose that unknown number will increase.”
“Indeed, people won’t ignore you now…” Agnes’ eyes gleamed dangerously as she said that.
Victor’s violet eyes gleamed slightly, and he looked up while he displayed a slight smile that took everyone by surprise with his beauty.
“Although that’s more interesting, isn’t it?” His eyes glowed neon pink for a few seconds, making all the participants shudder.
… But it wasn’t fear… It was from excitement. Everyone was drawn to him somehow, like moths heading toward a flame.
The only ones unaffected were Shiva and the meeting organizer himself. The rest were all influenced in some way.
Which proved just how strong Aphrodite’s blessing was.
As someone from the same Pantheon, Zeus could feel that man had Aphrodite’s full blessing. For a few seconds, he’d even confused Victor as the God of Beauty.
‘He’s beautiful, I want him for myself-… Hmm?’ Zeus focused his gaze on Victor.
Zeus could feel something else, something deeply related to Olympus in Victor’s body…something Hephaestus had given Aphrodite as a gift thousands of years ago.
‘Give’ would be an exaggeration. Hephaestus used it to ‘trap’ Aphrodite in her intimate act with Ares, an act of jealousy to prove that the Goddess was not as ‘holy’ as she claimed.
After all, the Goddess did not want to marry Hephaestus at the request of Zeus. So she gave the man a big middle finger, which greatly irritated Hephaestus; because of this, he made a chain.
A chain capable of binding a God.
A chain that, after being used on Aphrodite, the woman kept for herself as compensation.
“If he made it for me, then it’s mine, right?” She was pretty vain.
A chain that was later kindly named by the woman as The Chains That Bind Deities, Alsyr.
A restraint capable of severely weakening a God.
That chain was now on Victor’s body, a Divine Artifact made by Hephaestus!
“…A-A-Aphrodite, what the hell have you done, woman!?” Zeus couldn’t help but scream in horror.
Aphrodite couldn’t contain herself when she heard Zeus’ scream.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~”
