Chapter 716: Violet’s Strongest Power.
“Victor, I need to study something.”
“Okay, take your time. I’ll talk to you later.”
“Mm.”
Seeing Zaladrac disappear, he resumed his walk toward the mansion. When he was about to arrive, he stopped before the mansion and narrowed his eyes.
His visual senses expanded, and he began to see the world as if it had no walls. Next, his eyes ‘zoomed’ toward one of the outlying annexes, and soon his violet eyes were staring into the flaming eyes of a woman.
“Hiiii!” The woman jumped back in fright when their eyes suddenly met, and for a moment, she had the impression that she was going to be swallowed by an angry Dragon.
“Hestia, what are you doing?” Victor raised an eyebrow. He was pretty sure he forbade the Goddesses from using their Divine Senses inside the mansion grounds.
“N-Nothing. I just wanted to know who arrived at the mansion.”
“You know lying doesn’t work on me, right?”
“…” Hestia opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out.
“Haah, just say what you want. You know you have more privileges here than the other Goddesses, so ignoring you using your Divine Senses is easy. After all, I know you mean no harm or have some kind of perverted fetish.”
A God’s Divine Senses were incredible, and Gods used these senses for everything, even communicating over long distances. In a way, these Divine Senses were similar to the Dragon’s Eyes, only slightly different. Unlike Dragons, who were already born being able to see what the world really looked like, the Gods needed to heighten their Divine Senses to do the same.
The more proficient they were, the more ‘truths’ they could see.
Apparently, the reason Dragons could see the Truth of The World from birth was because they were creatures more in tune with the ‘world’ itself.
The environment in which the Dragon grew greatly influenced how it would be in the future. If the Dragon grew in an ice environment, it would be an Ice Dragon. If they grew up in an environment with a lot of greenery, they would be a Wild Dragon.
Because of this reactive evolving trait, it was not an exaggeration to say that Dragons were like forces of nature. They were literally parts of the ‘world’, much like Nature Spirits who, just like Dragons, could also see The Truth of The World from birth.
“Hmm… I-I– Cough. I just wanted to see you…”
“Oh…” Victor smiled gently when he saw a pouting blush on the Goddess’s face.
“In that case, I’m sorry for forcing you to speak. I can see that you are quite uncomfortable.”
“N-No, it’s okay.”
“Mm.” Victor walked to the entrance of the mansion and opened the door:
“I’m home.” His voice wasn’t loud or soft; it was a neutral tone that resonated throughout the manor and places around it.
“Welcome home, Victor.” Hestia smiled gently.
“Mm, I’m back.”
“…” Hestia opened her eyes wide, and right after that, she flashed one of the most beautiful smiles that Victor had seen. It was an innocent, gentle, and satisfied smile.
Victor made sure to etch the Goddess’s happy expression into his mind.
“Where are you now?”
“At the training grounds of the Goddess Mansion, I am accompanying the training of the Queen of the Amazons and her Elites.”
“Hmm, Amazons, huh… I need to visit the city they’re in later” Victor just noticed that he still hadn’t met the new residents.
“Okay, let me know when you’re leaving. I’ll be there too.”
“Mm, I’m going to visit the Goddesses. Is Aphrodite there?”
“Yes, she will head there soon.”
“Okay.”
Victor nodded, stopped ‘looking’ at Hestia, and focused on his surroundings, which was basically the entire mansion.
As his attention was on the mansion, he didn’t miss a woman running through the halls at high speed.
“Daaaaarrrrrlinggg~!”
Soon a white rocket in the shape of Violet flew toward him.
“Oof, I told you not to jump like that, Violet. What will happen if you get hurt?”
“Hehehe~”
“Lord Alucard, do you need something?”
Victor looked at Yuki, who showed up just as Violet came to receive him.
“Where are the Maids?” He asked curiously. Usually, when he arrived, the entrance was full of Maids. It was a true vision of white-haired women with different hairstyles.
“… All of them are working under Lady Agnes and Lady Violet.”
“Oh?” Victor looked at Violet, who was hugging him.
Violet rubbed her face on Victor’s chest and climbed up his body, quickly laying her head on his shoulder:
“There were some problems in the New City. Some groups thought committing crimes in the city where my family and I rule was a good idea.” She deeply sniffed his neck and licked it as if marking her territory.
“…Interesting…Do you need anything?”
“No, I can handle it easily.”
“Mm. Just don’t forget-.”
“No mercy, right? I know.” Violet smiled predatorily: “I will burn them all.”
“I was going to say make an example of them like I did when I arrested the traitors… But that will do too.”
“Hmm… Bloody style, huh… I like it; I’ll do it.”
“Mm.”
“Where is Hilda, Yuki?”
“She is training Lady Anna.”
“I see… How is your training going?”
“Eh?” Yuki’s poker face broke before the question she didn’t expect: “M-My training?”
“Yes.”
“…I’m getting stronger… But still at a much slower pace than I’d like.” She was honest.
“Hmm.”
Yuki flinched before Victor’s narrowed violet eyes. She felt as if she couldn’t hide anything from those eyes, which in a way, was a correct thought.
“Are you training with your other Power?”
Yuki shuddered: “H-How -.”
“For a period of time, I was the Leader of the Snow Clan, you know? So, of course, I know about that.” Only the Core Members of the Snow Clan, Agnes, Violet, Hilda, and Adonis, knew about Yuki’s situation.
“…”
“Unlike the other members, you are a member of the Main Clan. You are the Daughter of Agnes’s brother, Violet’s uncle, which makes you two cousins.”
Yuki’s only motive for being a Snow Clan Maid was because she was the daughter of Agnes’s brother and a ‘foreign’ Noble Vampire. She was a bastard daughter.
Yuki gave up her inheritance of her own will.
Unwanted daughter or not, Yuki was still her late brother’s daughter, so Agnes had done her utmost to protect her.
To be honest, if Yuki so desired, she could very well give up being Maid and become a ‘Lady’ of the Snow Clan, but that Title also came with a lot of stifling responsibilities, something she didn’t want.
“Don’t worry; there’s no one around.” Victor declared when he saw Yuki’s worried look around.
“…Oh.”
“So? Did you train?”
“… I tried, but it’s hard to train that Power.” Yuki was honest.
Victor looked thoughtfully at the 165CM tall Maid with two G-Cup nukes that rivaled his bustiest Wives. Yuki’s Second Lineage was something simple but very useful in combat.
Precognition.
She could see a few seconds of her own future and instinctively feel the ‘danger’ that threatened her.
This was the Bloodline of a Miko [Priestess] hailing from a Clan of very Ancient Noble Vampires in Japan.
Yuki’s ‘maternal’ side was stronger than the ‘paternal’ side, who was a Main Member of the Snow Clan.
“Tell me, Yuki. How determined are you to get stronger?”
“… What do you mean, Lord Alucard?”
“Are you willing to suffer for Power? If you are, I can train you.”
“…..” She opened her mouth to speak but closed it shortly after when she thought of Victor’s training. It might not be as brutal as Scathach’s, but it was still Spartan-like training made for Noble Vampires. It was obvious that she wasn’t willing to suffer for Power.
“I see your hesitation.”
Yuki shuddered, and for a moment, she thought he was disappointed.
“I-.”
“Everything is fine. You have no real enough need to submit yourself to that kind of torture.” Victor spoke kindly and rather patronizingly.
He wasn’t disappointed in her since he understood; after all, nobody liked to feel pain.
‘Even though we’re Noble Vampires, it still hurts to get hit and torn apart.’ Victor thought.
Yuki had the motivation to get stronger, but not to the point where she would suffer for it as Victor and the others did.
“The way you’re going now, even though it will take a while, you’ll still grow and get stronger, and Hilda will make sure of that. So please ignore my question.”
“…Yes…”
Victor shook his head: “No need to be sad. I’m not disappointed in you. I’m really proud that you can develop so fast; all I did was ask a casual question, okay? Don’t overthink it.”
“Mm.” Yuki smiled gently when she heard him speak. ‘I am proud of you’.
She had a very selective memory.
Victor chuckled gently, then looked straight ahead and started walking with Violet still clinging to his chest as she rested her head on his shoulder.
As Victor started to walk, his shadow grew, and soon Kaguya and the Maids stepped out of the shadows.
“Ughhhh – Kaaah.” Maria stretched.
“How embarrassing, Maria. Fix your clothes.” Bruna spoke.
“Stop being pushy, Nun! In this mansion, only women and our Husband are allowed. No one is bold enough to step foot here.” Maria rolled her eyes.
Due to the one-year ‘training’ incident, all the male members were sent to a different mansion, so the only ones in the Main Mansion were the women who worked with Agnes and the Maids.
The rest of the staff were in another mansion.
“Still not an appropriate attitude for a Maid, Wife, or even lover!” Bruna snorted.
“… Hmm, you’re right.” Maria groaned and started to straighten her clothes.
“Stop messing around, Maids; we’re still working,” Kaguya warned sternly.
“Yes~.”
“….” Eve rolled her eyes at her sisters’ attitude. Ever since they had become Victor’s ‘women’, the Maids acted even more casual when no one was around.
And since their Master/Husband liked it, he said nothing.
“Hey, Yuki, aren’t you coming?” Roberta asked.
“… Eh? Oh…Yes, I will.” Yuki ran towards the Maids.
As the Maids chatted with each other, with Kaguya and Eve adding a few lines to the conversation occasionally, Victor eventually left the mansion and headed out into the garden towards where the Goddesses were.
“Geh, are you going to visit those bitches?” Violet asked, knowing where they were going.
“Yes, I also have to visit the Amazons in the future.”
“Hmm, just don’t kill them all. They’re useful.”
“…Are they still that bad?”
“I don’t know, I still haven’t seen them since I woke up, but I probably will soon.”
“… Well, no problem, I can just throw them to the monsters.”
“That’s a good idea.” Violet nodded in satisfaction.
“Speaking of which, I felt it when you arrived earlier. Where were you before?” she asked curiously.
“I was with the members of Clan Scarlett.” He answered honestly.
“Oh… Scathach decided to teach you about Runes, huh.”
“Did you know about that?”
“Yeah, I heard her talking about it while she was lying down.”
“Speaking of which, how are the other girls?”
“Haruna, Mizuki, and Leona are still sleeping.”
“Haruna and Mizuki, I understand, but Leona too?”
“She is being lazy.” Violet shrugged and snuggled closer to Victor’s body like a koala:
“Speaking of Leona, you must talk to Edward, Victor.”
“…” Victor stopped walking suddenly, a look of realization appeared on his face, then he spoke:
“Fuck.”
“Yes, I want to.” Maria, Roberta, and Violet spoke at the same time.
“…” The three looked at each other and laughed in amusement.
Yuki blushed when she saw the ‘depravity’ in the air. Although she was embarrassed internally, she couldn’t help but feel a little jealous.
Bruna, Eve, Kaguya, and Victor rolled their eyes in exasperation; these women were very thirsty.
Victor was sure that if he didn’t have Aphrodite’s Blessing of Sexuality, he would never be able to satisfy everyone. Of course, he wasn’t saying that he was bad at sex or anything and that he couldn’t satisfy the girls.
It was simply a problem with the Race itself. Vampire Nobles were a Race that naturally had a much faster recovery time from fatigue.
As most of his Wives were powerful female Vampires, naturally, their regeneration was extreme. Due to this fact, when they grew ‘tired’ while practicing their nightly ‘duels’, they only needed to rest for a few minutes or drink Victor’s blood to get back to their peak state and with even more desire.
It was an endless cycle of depravity.
If he didn’t have the Blessing of Sexuality that ‘amplified’ sex itself, causing prolonged ‘satisfaction’, he was sure that the one year of night training would have stretched over a whole decade.
‘Well, it’s not like that’s a bad thing either.’ As a Progenitor, the wielder of a World Tree, and the one with The Heart of A Dragon, Victor was a walking power reactor.
Ceasing her laughter, Violet said, “Darling, I’m hungry.”
“… Didn’t you drink my blood for a whole year?”
“I want more~. Won’t you give it to me?” She asked with a cute voice and a perverted smile.
“Haah, I wonder who I spoil more, you or Sasha.” Victor bit his tongue and kissed Violet.
“Huum~” She groaned with satisfaction.
Due to his superior body, his Wives were unable to bite his body and drink blood as was typically done.
Because of this, Victor had to purposely injure himself or bite his tongue and feed them directly through mouth to mouth.
It was noteworthy that, without exception, all female Vampires preferred the mouth-to-mouth method; it was more exciting.
After drinking his blood, Violet pulled away and smiled sensually, then she spoke while licking her bloody lips:
“… You spoil us all, but probably Ruby, Roxanne, and Clan Scarlett get even more of that pampering.”
“What? Why Clan Scarlett and Roxanne?”
“I mean, you love redheads.”
“…” He had no way of refuting that.
“Speaking of Sasha, where is my Wife? I wanted to spoil her today.”
“Hmph, you already did that a week ago!”
“There is always room for more pampering.”
Violet rolled her eyes, “To answer your question; she’s been training with Natashia and Victoria. Apparently, Victoria awakened her Lightning Power.”
“Hmm.”
“… You don’t seem surprised about Victoria’s case.”
“I mean, she drank my blood and my seed milk. She was second only to you and Aphrodite, for that matter. I’d be more surprised if she hadn’t awakened her Lightning.”
“Jerk, you talk like you’re a walking rare resource” She snorted.
“I mean, it’s true, right? Look at all the changes my fluids caused.”
“…” She couldn’t refute those words. Victor’s current body was the most precious asset for Noble Vampires. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that wars between Noble Vampires would break out over pieces of his body if he died.
“Not to mention that Victoria accepted to become part of my Family. She is an Alucard now, so it was guaranteed that she would awaken her Power.”
“That’s true… Ugh, I just realized you’ve laid your hands on all the women of the Four Strongest Vampire Count Clans!”
“Not one escapes your clutches! Who will be the next victim? Hilda? Yuki? Perhaps, all the Valkyries?” She narrowed her eyes at him.
“Again, you speak as though I’m at fault. I didn’t run after them; they came after me.”
“Hmph, how can those bitches ignore you? You are perfect.”
“I know, right?” Victor laughed.
Violet rolled her eyes at her Husband’s narcissism, despite the fact she found it adorable most of the time.
“Your job is to defend this Perfect Being from harm.”
“Do you think I don’t already do that? I’ve killed so many women I could make a pool of blood near my house. Damn whores who are trying to sneak up on you… Well, at least thanks to my effort, the Vampire Nobles are ashamed in their faces and don’t try to bother you.”
This effort was not just Violet’s. All his Wives together were actively preventing gold-digging women from approaching Victor.
This job had become even easier thanks to the ‘hierarchy’ that was decided a few weeks ago.
Violet, Ruby, and Sasha even created a chat group where all the Wives were present, and they often exchanged memes and emojis in that chat.
“Humph, pathetic.” Victor snorted.
“What?”
“You killed enough to make just one pool? I’ve killed enough horny bastards to make a river of blood! You don’t know how destructive your beauty is or how cute you are, and that pisses me off.”
Violet smiled: “Ara… Tell me more about the cute part.”
“…” The Maids rolled their eyes at this white-haired psychopath.
A few minutes of Victor and Violet flirting with each other passed until suddenly, Violet changed the subject:
“Anyway, give me your blood!” She spoke with a heavy voice and a primal bloodlust.
“Why did you talk like I was your enemy or something? And why did you change the subject? Are you bipolar?”
Her expression returned to normal, and she said:
“I saw this scenario in a Vampire movie from the past, which made me want to imitate it. And about being bipolar, I don’t know. I haven’t been to the doctor, and I don’t care. Are you going to leave me for that?” She asked with a dead expression with two violet black holes in her eyes.
Victor shuddered slightly, his smile grew, and his eyes became the same as hers:
“Never.”
“Hmm, good.” She nodded in satisfaction and hugged him even more lovingly.
Victor chuckled a little, and soon his expression returned to normal, his mind returning to the words Violet spoke earlier.
“Hmm, by the way, I haven’t seen a movie in a while… Shall we have a movie night?”
Violet and the Maids’ eyes sparkled.
“Let’s do it!” Violet, Roberta, Bruna, and Maria exclaimed together.
“Kaguya, buy a movie theater in Nightingale!”
“Yes, Lady Violet.”
“Wait, buying a movie theater is overkill. Let’s just modify my room; it’s big enough.” Victor spoke.
“Oh… That’s a good idea.” Violet spoke.
“I’m counting on you, Girls.”
“Okay, we’ll prepare everything~” Bruna laughed excitedly.
“Movie, huh… I don’t think I’ve ever seen one,” Eve commented.
“You’ve never seen a movie?” Roberta asked incredulously.
“Yeah, I only watched Anime. Ruby is very persuasive.” She shrugged as if she had no choice.
“…” Those words made Victor stop walking again, as he looked at Eve with a solemn look:
“That is unacceptable.”
“Eh?”
“I will recommend you several movies. Sci-fi is a good start, Star Wars, maybe?” Victor began to mutter.
“….” Eve didn’t know how to react to those words.
“Just let him do what he wants. You’ll like it.” Kaguya displayed a small smile as she looked at Victor. She remembered him reacting the same way when she said she had never seen a movie. At the time, he presented several films for her to watch with him, Violet, and Natalia.
“Mm.” Eve just nodded as she looked curiously at Kaguya.
“Tsk, I thought this was a good opportunity to use my strongest power, although if you think about it, I really don’t want to leave the comfort of my home just to watch a movie.” Violet suddenly exclaimed. With the last sentence, it was obvious that she was being lazy.
Victor stopped mumbling. “… What is your strongest power?” He asked curiously. He didn’t remember hearing about a new Power before.
“I’m rich.”
“….”
