Chapter 695: I Miss You.
One year later.
A woman with long black hair, red eyes, and a curvy body walked with confident steps and an aura of a noblewoman.
“Good morning, Lady Anna.”
Anna looked at the Maid who spoke and the ten food carts behind her that other Maids were pushing.
“This is more than usual.”
“Yes, Lady Mizuki, Lady Leona, Lady Haruna ordered a lot of food. They said they needed it because it is nearing the end of the…-” The Snow Clan Maid’s face turned red with embarrassment, but she managed to swallow her embarrassment and continue:
“Training… Lord Victor is more active than usual. They barely get any more sleep.”
“I see…”
Anna flashed an amused smile at the expression of the Maid and the other Maids who overheard what she said. Imagine her surprise when she came out of training, wanting to know the news of her son who was apparently thrown into Hell, only to find he was having an orgy with all his Wives and that the time limit for this orgy was one year.
Literally, non-stop sex for 24 hours and 365 days non-stop.
A feat that could only be accomplished by someone with an abnormal amount of energy like Victor.
Anna wouldn’t even be surprised if some of those women inside the room suddenly became pregnant. She’d heard from Roxanne that Ruby and Aphrodite assured her that they’d taken care of that particular matter, but she still wouldn’t be surprised if any of the women in that room became pregnant.
Not that she doubted the Beauty Goddess, her oldest friend, but accidents could happen, right?
‘Haah… I should stop thinking about my possible future grandchildren and focus more on my work.’ Anna scolded herself internally.
Due to the absence of virtually all of their ‘Faction’ Leaders, Anna, Leon, Roxanne, Hestia, and Hilda were left in charge of handling everything.
On some occasions, during the ‘rest times’, Ruby, Violet, and Haruna would help them. Still, these occasions only occurred when Victor was ‘dueling’ with Aphrodite, Scathach, Jeanne, or Morgana, the women with more ‘durability’ and ‘stamina’ in the group,
Aphrodite being the one who could accompany Victor the most.
When that didn’t happen, and they needed more help, Roxanne would call her Son’s Demon Generals, Vepar or Helena. The two were responsible for the government in the Demon World and were very experienced in these matters.
“Keep up the good work. Have you seen that old man around?”
“Abe-No-Seimei is in Lady Mizuki’s room. He said he was studying the Mysteries of Life.”
“Is that old man still angry with my son?” She snorted.
Before all this ‘sex’ wave had occurred, Victor somehow kicked all the ‘men’ out of the building. Anna didn’t know the details about it; she just knew that Abe-No-Seimei, the Heroic Spirit living in Mizuki’s body, was expelled from there and gained a more ‘alive’ body, so to speak.
The thing is, he was still a Soul, but he was more visible and could be touched almost like a human, something that could only be done if he was using Mizuki’s Energy.
Since that day, the old man had been irritated because he was kicked out of his ‘disciple’ and couldn’t return to her.
“Should I tell him that you wish to speak with him?”
“That’s not necessary. As usual, if there are any changes, let me know immediately.”
“Yes, Lady Anna.”
Anna started walking toward her temporary office with light steps. During the walk, she couldn’t help but remember her training.
Hilda was… a sadistic woman, something she came to discover was inherent in most Noble Vampires. But despite being sadistic, there was no doubt that she was an excellent teacher.
She’d taught her everything from how to use her body and talents perfectly to etiquette and how to behave.
Lessons in etiquette and politics were absorbed easily. Anna may act carefree, but she was raised in a good family, and as a lawyer who often defended politicians in the past, she was well-versed in this area.
The only difference between the politics of Humans and the politics of Supernatural Beings was that any conflict could lead to a large-scale conflict. Still, the way the politics manifested and was performed were the same. Sometimes the politics of Supernatural Beings could even be more old-fashioned than that of Humans.
If there was one class that Anna wasn’t very good at, it was culture.
Supernatural Beings thought completely differently from Humans. What for Humans would be considered a heinous crime or highly taboo for Supernatural Beings was just another Tuesday afternoon.
The mentality that the strong were always right was employed in all cultures. Even if there were laws and rules in some Factions, the strongest still spoke the loudest.
A perfect example of this was in Samar’s society. Werewolves had a King, and that King could be replaced at any time if he accepted a duel that put his ‘Alpha’ position on the line.
Even in Nightingale itself, Vampire Count Families had so much influence, but they lost completely in front of the ‘power’ of the King. At least, that was how it was until Victor came to this place and messed everything up.
Due to the existence of the Second Progenitor, society was divided. Except for the Alioth and Adrastella, the most influential Clans supported Victor, and the rest of the Vampire Nobles supported Vlad.
Arriving at the temp office, she opened the door and walked in, and what she saw left her quite surprised.
Victor sat shirtless, with Kaguya lying with her head on his thigh. He was checking some documents with his right hand while his left hand was stroking Kaguya’s hair.
“Mother.”
“Vic…? You…”
“Yeah?” Victor replied, confused as he stopped looking at the documents and looked at Anna.
“You look so different…”
“Oh, I guess that’s normal. I’ve changed a lot since the last time we met.”
“…Yeah.” Anna was still lost as she looked at Victor.
Not only did his appearance change, becoming more ‘inhuman’, but so did his composure.
She could see that easily when she walked into the room.
“Please sit down.”
Anna nodded and walked over to the front of the couch Victor was on.
Halfway through the walk, she overcame the shock and forced herself to act normally.
“Did you finish your ‘training’?”
“Yes. When I returned from Hell, I felt like I could explode at any moment. Now, I’m so much lighter…I really missed everyone.” He commented with a gentle smile as he stroked Kaguya’s black hair.
Anna nodded and looked at Kaguya, who was sleeping peacefully with an amused look.
“She couldn’t let you go?”
“Yeah, even while sleeping, she tightly clung to my shadow. But, when I got to this room, she suddenly materialized from the shadows and went back to sleep.”
‘Kaguya’s attitude, in a way, resembles Violet’s when it comes to Victor.’ Anna thought.
“What happened to the girls?”
“They’re all sleeping, entirely exhausted. It will probably take a few weeks for some of them to wake up.”
“I see… I saw the Maids with several food carts. Did you let them in?”
“Not until Roxanne was around.”
“So overprotective.”
“It’s who I am.” Victor laughed.
“I assume you were kind to girls who weren’t in a relationship with you before.”
“Of course, even in my lust, I wouldn’t dare to hurt anyone.”
“Don’t forget to take them all on a date later.”
“Of course, I was thinking about that too.” Victor smiled gently: “Now that I’m more free, I can spend more time with them and my two daughters…”
“Are there no compromises? I thought being a King was more chaotic.”
“Sometimes, yes, but I have competent subordinates, and currently, the world is a mess.”
“Starting with the Divine side, the Greek Pantheon is in the middle of a civil war; the Nordic Pantheon has the Bifrost destroyed and are heading towards a civil war themselves. On the other hand, the Shinto Pantheon is recovering from a war, and the same applies to the Egyptian Pantheon and the Hindu Pantheon.”
“Not to mention the smaller Factions of Supernatural Beings on Earth. They are all recovering from the last war. A year is not enough to recover all that was lost by the onslaught of Demons.”
“Everyone is busy.” Anna nodded.
“Indeed.”
“I wonder what will happen to the Humans. Now that the Supernatural World has been exposed, and most of the countries across the globe have been affected, the economy has gone to shit, and some countries have been completely destroyed, not to mention the minor related problems surfacing in each country. There is no way this can all be resolved quickly.”
“That is not entirely true…”
“Oh? What do you mean?”
“The top God-King level Gods of the Supernatural Beings gathering together could easily solve this problem. They can even restore everything that has been destroyed; they have that much power… The correct question would be, will they do it?”
“There are more advantages to leaving things as they are and announcing themselves to the Human World. I can very well see the Gods acting as the ‘good guys’, and taking advantage of the situation to gather followers.”
“What good would it be to gather the followers?”
“More influence in the Mortal World. It’s no secret that Humans, with the right help, can be good soldiers. Just look at all the Heroes of the past.”
“I also see some Pantheons like the Greek and Egyptian taking advantage of the situation to make more ‘Demigods’. They may not be as strong as a Combat-Oriented God, but with the right training and equipment, they could easily take on most Supernatural adversaries who are stronger than they are. It’s no secret that the Pantheons have the best blacksmiths available.”
“There are a lot of situations where Humans are useful.”
“A prevalent practice in the past, huh.”
“Yes, they still do that today but will get more aggressive now. After all, Diablo threw the status quo out the window, and many will take advantage of that.”
“Of course, so will we, right?”
“Indeed.” Victor smiled.
“But enough of this depressing talk. I don’t want to talk about work right now. Tell me about yourself, Mother.”
“How was your training?”
“If I were to describe it in one word… Infernal.”
