Chapter 842: Nightmare Tower. 6
“All of Zeus’ useful knowledge and memories in his use of Lightning.”
“…” Natashia and the Greek Goddesses who heard these words were speechless.
Despite who he was, there was no doubt that Zeus was one of the strongest Lightning Gods out there, second only to Beings of the same level in other Pantheons.
“It was because of this knowledge that I was able to improve this Technique as well,” Victor explained.
Natashia thought to herself, or did she remember the information? She didn’t know; this feeling of incongruence was irritating.
All she ‘remembered’ was Zeus thinking of doing something similar to what Victor was doing now but not being able to because his brain couldn’t handle the load. Although he had something like a static field, he never used it except in the Titanomachy because, when he Ascended to the Throne of God King, he Awakened something called Divine Vision, which, in his opinion, seemed better than what he had developed.
“Ugh, this is confusing; these memories seem to be mine, and at the same time, I know they’re not,” Natashia grumbled.
“Don’t worry. I made sure to completely separate the memories. This incongruence will only last for a few minutes.”
“Mm.”
“I plan to give this knowledge to Sasha as well.” Victor waved his hand, and another blonde woman flew toward him.
“W-Wait, Vic-.” Victoria tried to protest and complain not to do this in public, but he didn’t listen.
“Humpf?”
Like a heartless bastard, he took her lips and, at the same time, gave her all the memories he gave to Natashia.
Victoria was catatonic for a few seconds due to the vast amount of information, but soon, her body reacted, and her eyes shone blood-red as she kissed Victor more fiercely.
“… Well… That… Wow…” Haruna didn’t know how to react. “I didn’t think she had that sort of fierceness.”
“She’s my sister, after all, and all Fulgers are fierce. She just pretends to be a saint when she’s not.” Natashia huffed.
“I think the Fulger name is becoming something else due to the influences of these two sisters… Weren’t they the House of Knights in the past or something?” Maria asked, recalling the information she had read in the Fulger library.
Victoria pulled away from Victor and got lost in her own world as she began to ‘see’ Zeus’s memories.
Victor chuckled gently, stroked Victoria’s hair, and then looked at the screen where he saw Sasha walking calmly down a long, narrow corridor similar to the one Ruby was in.
“Understood, she’s not rushing… And it seems she found the steel swords just like Violet.”
“Not only that, thanks to her static field, she wisely choose the right weapons, even though she’s carrying the mimic weapons too,” Nyx said.
“Oh?” Victor gestured with his hand, and the scene changed angles, allowing Victor to see several weapons floating behind Sasha.
“What splendid control of Lightning,” Scathach remarked.
“Humpf, of course, I trained her after all,” Natashia said.
“That’s smart… Although I don’t know what it is, she figured out that these monsters would only appear when someone touched them. Lightning isn’t ‘someone,’ so she can carry them around,” Gaia said.
“Is this a mistake by The Tower?” Nyx asked.
“The Tower doesn’t make mistakes; it provides scenarios for a person’s creativity to act. So, such a scenario is not unrealistic,” Victor said.
Sasha suddenly stopped, and the next moment, she jumped backward as a ‘mole’ emerged from the ground and attacked the area where Sasha’s legs had been.
Sasha squinted her eyes and saw the walls moving.
“Ugh, now they’re wall worms,” Aphrodite grumbled.
“Moles are the correct word, Aphrodite,” Hestia commented.
“Whatever, Hestia. They’re worms to me,” Aphrodite huffed. “Look, they crawl on the walls, and their legs are small and slippery-.”
“Fine! I get your point! No need to describe it,” Hestia shuddered slightly.
“Fufufu.” Aphrodite smiled in satisfaction.
Sasha took a dagger from her thigh and threw it toward the wall.
A burst of Lightning boomed out, and soon, a creature emerged from the wall, dead.
“… That’s disgusting,” Siena made a disgusted face when she saw the creature.
“The creature wasn’t killed by the Lightning… It was the dagger,” Victoria commented after waking from her stupor and evaluating the creature.
“It seems that, just like before, The Tower provided a scenario where Lightning couldn’t be used much.”
“And it’s a good thing she’s not using her Lightning too actively, or The Tower would act and send creatures like that gorilla I fought in the past or even those Alphas who managed to suppress my speed. If she pushed it even further, Nocturnos himself might appear.”
“Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?” Eleonor asked.
“It’s necessary. Unlike Ice and Fire, the speed of Lightning is extremely difficult to combat.”
“An opponent fighting at the speed of light is practically invincible.”
His words might seem exaggerated, but they weren’t. If Victor wanted to, he could kill everyone here in a blink of an eye and return to his position as if nothing had happened.
It was because of this excessive Power that Victor was becoming paranoid and taking precautions in case, for some reason, he went Berserk or someone controlled his mind.
Although the probability of that happening was very low, it was still not 0%, so it was better to be prepared.
Fortunately, he had Roxanne inside him for that. As a Symbiotic Being that fed his Soul, Roxanne was deeply connected within him and was his last line of defense if something like that were to happen.
“The only reason The Flash couldn’t annihilate the entire Justice League was because of the script. If he so wished and used any and all means necessary, including weaknesses, he would be practically invincible,” Pepper commented as she raised her glasses smartly.
Where did she find those glasses? Who knew?
“Indeed,” Victor chuckled gently.
The group watched Sasha jumping backward while throwing knives and killing all the creatures.
She did this two more times, and soon, all the monsters were dead.
“She’s progressing more smoothly than Ruby and Violet,” Agnes commented.
“That’s because she was training more than both of them combined,” Scathach said.
Violet had to take care of The Snow Clan’s business, and Ruby was busy with her experiments.
Sasha was supposed to be doing something similar to Violet, but luckily, they had Victoria for that, and because of that, she was the one most free to train and improve.
Such a result was understandable.
A portal appeared. Sasha narrowed her eyes at the portal and carefully looked around; feeling nothing, she walked towards it.
But when she was about to go through the portal, she threw herself on the ground, and a type of fish with sharp teeth came out of the ground and bit the air.
“…Huh? I don’t feel anything.” Sasha quickly got over her shock and got to her feet.
Rather than fight an unknown enemy in a disadvantageous location, she quickly returned to the portal.
“What was that at the end?”
“The static field is a good thing, and you can feel pretty much everything, but there are things that can ignore it, things like the darkness of Shadow Demons or the Void itself.”
“… Void?” Natashia swallowed.
“Yes, that fish was created with a tiny part of The Power of The Void, which is why Sasha didn’t feel anything.”
“The Tower did this so something like what happened to Agnes and Violet wouldn’t happen.”
“Not completely relying on one Technique, huh,” Natashia spoke, understanding Victor’s reasoning.
“Yes.”
“But I have to say that, of all three, Sasha’s performance was the most perfect, and she acted exactly as I would, carefully, observing everything and not taking too many risks. You trained her well, Natashia.”
Natashia smiled: “I know.”
“Grr…” Scathach growled, and her Dragon Eyes became even thinner. In the next moment, she looked at Siena, Lacus, and Pepper.
“…Fuck.” The three spoke at the same time.
“You three will go to The Tower too!” With a wave of her hands, the three sisters disappeared and entered The Tower.
Soon, three other screens appeared at the scene.
“Victor, this is your fault, you bastard!” Siena shouted.
“…” Victor just stared at the screens with a blank expression, and then, he looked at Scathach with a look that said. ‘Are you serious, woman?’
“Humpf, my Title as the strongest teacher will not be questioned. If my youngest daughter performed incompetently, the other three will be better now that they know about The Tower.”
She may have said that, but Victor knew very well that the main reason for her action was not that, but jealousy.
“You’re really cute sometimes, Scathach.” He smiled sweetly.
Scathach snorted again and turned her face towards her daughters’ screen as she crossed her arms. Her long red hair hid her expression, but everyone could tell that she was a little red in the face.
“Fufufufufu…-” Natashia started to smile, and when she was about to say something, Agnes grabbed her shoulder.
“Stop it.”
“…What?”
“She really will kill you if you provoke her now,” Agnes spoke.
“Do you think Victor would let that happen?” Natashia asked in disbelief.
“Of course not, but don’t provoke the temperamental Dragon for now. The atmosphere will only turn bad and hostile. Light teasing is fine since it does not cause fractures in our union.”
Natashia opened her eyes widely when she realized what Agnes was talking about.
“… You are right.” She nodded.
