Chapter 887: Claiming territories.
WarFall.
Eleonor, the Valkyries, and the Vampire Nobles present in WarFall stared at the scene before them; they had never seen so many Alphas together as they did now.
“Darling… Are you sure?” Eleonor asked as she looked at her Husband. Even though he was in a completely different form, she could still recognize those gentle eyes no matter the appearance.
“I am.” Victor smiled slightly, showing his smile full of sharp teeth. Despite it looking like the smile of the strongest predator alive, none of his Wives felt scared.
Of course, the same could not be said for the other Beings close to him.
Victor floated towards Eleonor and caressed her head gently. “You and Rose must decide what to do with them.”
“…I…Thank you, Darling.” Eleonor was going to say something, but halfway through, she decided not to. She just thanked him deeply while she had mixed feelings about the matter.
In front of her was the reason why her family suffered, or at least she thought so. It turned out they were just pawns for The Elder Gods.
Did this take away their guilt? Of course not. Feelings cannot be changed that easily… However, upon hearing their side of the story from Victor, she was left with complex feelings about the matter.
Why did Victor tell them this story? The answer was simple. He wanted Eleonor and Rose to understand everything and to make their decision based on concrete facts.
In the end, no matter what they chose, he would support them.
Finished with stroking Eleonor’s head, Victor looked at the Valkyries: “Thank you for your work, girls.”
“…Eh? Y-Yes, thank you for your work!?” The Valkyries answered the question with another question in confusion. They were completely in their own world when they saw Victor’s current appearance.
He looked so… Foreign.
“Darling, about your appearance…”
“Yeah, this is my true humanoid form now, but I can change back to my old appearance.”
“That’s good.”
“Oh? You don’t like this look.”
“I-I-It’s not that! It’s just that you look very… Intimidating with that appearance.” Eleonor swallowed dryly.
“And hot,” Alexa muttered.
The Valkyries and Rose looked in Alexa’s direction.
The woman blushed slightly and turned her head away, but she didn’t take back what she said.
“Heh~” Victor laughed lightly in amusement, and slowly, his body began to be covered in a violet Power. In the next moment, he returned to his former, more human appearance. Of course, as long as you ignored his Draconic Eyes, Dragon Horns, and Dragon Wings.
[Darling, I’m done.]
[Oh? That was easy.]
[Well, she looked at your true self.]
[Oh.] Victor now understood why it was so fast.
Victor looked to the side, and the next moment, a woman with golden hair with red highlights appeared. As soon as she realized where she was, she looked at Victor with horror in her eyes.
“Please don’t send me to that place again!”
Instead of answering the woman, he looked deeply at her. Her appearance was a little more reminiscent of Roxanne now, of course, if you ignored the less voluptuous body and her lack of Draconic Features. Still, the resemblance was definitely more apparent now.
[What happened, Roxanne? Why does she have traces of Negative Energy?]
[…Tsk, I mean, even though we are not connected to the same planet, we are sisters. Technically speaking, we are the same Existence, only that she is the ‘positive’ version of me. So when we met, our Energy started to work together again, but due to my unique characteristics, she was overwhelmed by my Energy, and she kind of was ‘tainted’, I guess?] Roxanne explained. Clearly, she didn’t understand much about the subject.
Which was no surprise, considering that Roxanne was no longer a normal World Tree.
[Calling you the same Existence is incorrect, Roxanne. After all, from the moment you joined me, your paths diverged.] Victor explained.
[I know, and that was one of the main reasons for the change in her appearance.] Roxanne nodded and added: [And even though our paths diverged, it is still a fact that we are born from the same Essence. All World Trees are like this.]
[Hmm… In that case.]
Lightly channeling the Power of Beginnings, Victor spoke: “Amara Alucard, do you like the gift?”
“Huh…?” The woman blinked twice as she felt her Existence being tied to the man in front of her, just like the planet. He had just claimed the entire planet and herself in the process!
[Tsk, I knew you would do that.] Roxanne snorted irritably.
[Why are you so angry? Is it that time of the month?]
[Of course not! I just don’t want to share space with my sister!]
“That’s your name. It means immortal or eternal, don’t you like it?”
“… But I already had a name…” Amara murmured, almost crying.
“Hmm, your name has been replaced.” Victor nodded.
Amara didn’t know how to react to this nonsense. And to think that even The System would recognize the name change. Even if she wanted to deny that name, she couldn’t.
“…Victor, you can’t just go around naming or changing people’s names as you please.” Jeanne sighed.
“I can’t?” Victor raised his eyebrow at Jeanne.
“You cannot.” Jeanne nodded seriously.
“Who’s going to stop me?” Victor asked.
“… Your mother?” Other than his mother, she couldn’t imagine anyone stopping Victor from doing something.
“Nah, she’ll help me name people,” Victor spoke.
Jeanne was silent when she realized he was right!
“Anyway, Amara. Now, you and this planet are mine. Do you have any objections?”
Amara just remained silent like a girl who was being bullied; she didn’t dare say anything.
Victor nodded, satisfied when he saw that he had convinced her peacefully. He then looked at Vlad, asking, “Do you have a problem with this, Vlad?”
“… Feel free. I don’t have any problems with it.” Vlad was smart enough to know what to say.
“Mm, that’s good. Don’t worry. I don’t intend to touch your people.”
Vlad didn’t answer verbally. He just nodded in agreement, but internally, he sighed in relief. Honestly, if Victor wanted to do something now, few people could go against his decision. Even using all his Power, Vlad didn’t think he could fight him.
“In fact, I intend to leave the land free for you to use as you please…” Victor smiled as plans began to form in his head.
“… What are you planning?” Vlad asked.
“A lot of stuff,” Victor replied, and then he looked at Eleonor before looking over at Rose.
“Rose, when I finish things here, I will transport everyone here to the territory of my Second Pantheon.”
“Mm, leave it to me, Darling.”
“…Second Pantheon,” Anrietha commented in disbelief. She then looked at Eleonor for answers.
“It’s a long story,” Eleonor replied slightly tiredly, not physically, but mentally.
“Eleonor, you will go back to training.”
“…I don’t want to go now.” Eleonor denied it.
“Don’t be like that. Take this time in training to think about what to do.” Victor advised.
“…You seem to be on the side of the Natives, Darling.” Eleonor narrowed her eyes.
Victor just shook his head from side to side. “I’m not… It’s just that my perspective is a little different now.”
“But in the end, I will respect your decision. You know that, right?”
“Yes… I’m sorry for my words.” Eleonor apologized for the sharp words earlier. She knew she shouldn’t take her feelings out on Victor.
“It’s okay. I know you have a lot on your mind right now. Which is why I told you to go train.” Victor stroked her head while channeling the Energy of Life derived from the Power of Beginning.
Feeling a cozy peace fall upon her Existence, the turbulence in Eleonor’s heart began to subside: “… You’re right.” She replied after thinking about Victor’s words.
“Mmm.” Victor smiled, satisfied, then looked at Haruna.
“I want all Youkai in the Second Pantheon, while your main residence will be in my house.”
All the Wives here understood that the house he was talking about was his personal planet.
“I don’t want to leave my subordinates, Victor.” Haruna narrowed her eyes.
“I know, and I will create a matrix so you are just one door away from your subordinates,” Victor replied.
Haruna still didn’t look convinced.
“As my Wife, I want you by my side. You and my future daughters must always be close to me, and that is non-negotiable.”
Haruna pouted. She couldn’t refuse when he put it like that. After all, she also thought the same about this specific topic.
“Fine, I will arrange everything.”
“Mm, soon, I will visit the Youkai; they need to be strengthened. I don’t want my Wife’s subordinates to be weak.”
Haruna couldn’t even defend her subordinates on that aspect. After all, from Victor’s point of view, her subordinates were weak.
Victor then looked at the Gods and Angels. “Call your Leaders, I am calling another Meeting of Supernatural Beings.”
“…Do you have the authority to do that?” Thor asked curiously, without any evil intentions behind those words.
Loki facepalmed. It was not just him; practically all the Gods and Angels present here did it.
Victor smiled at Thor. “Wrong question, Thor.”
“Eh?”
“The right question would be…”
Thor’s face began to deform in horror when, for a few seconds, he saw something that he could not explain, an existence that terrified his entire Soul. In the next moment, that Existence disappeared as if nothing had happened.
“Do they have the balls to deny my call?”
‘…Just what in the name of Odin’s beard was that!?’ Thor had never felt such terror in his life, a terror so deep that he felt he would go mad if he continued watching.
…
Victor appeared in the skies of Samar with Velnorah by his side. The woman refused to leave his side, something Victor didn’t mind too much. With his current senses, he could tell how ‘important’ and ‘powerful’ she was.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that she could wipe the floor with Shiva and still have enough strength left over to fight another God on the same level as Shiva. She was the Overlord of the Higher Worlds for a reason.
Even Victor himself couldn’t say if he would beat her in his CURRENT state. After all, he had only just become a God, and all his Divinities, except Blood, were at the Lowest Level. He still needed to improve each one of them.
Meanwhile, Velnorah was a Goddess who had all her Divinities in their maximum state.
Despite thinking this, Victor felt that he would not lose. His Existence was simply broken like that. However, despite this, he would not rely too much on this feeling when fighting with Beings who were Leaders of an entire galaxy.
It was stupid to do such a foolish act. Therefore, instead of relying on luck, he would do what he always did: train, train, train, and train even more until he became proficient in using his body again.
He wanted to reach the state where any action he did was instinctive again, something that was not possible now. For example, when using his Beginning-related Divinity on Eleonor, he took 2 seconds to choose the Divinity, think about the effect he wanted, and act upon it.
An EXTREMELY long time in a High-Level fight.
This perspective also begs the question. Did someone as powerful as Velnorah even need to come to this Universe for help? Just what was this woman facing that even she couldn’t fight it?
Victor was curious, but there was no time for that now. He needed to organize his entire Faction and allies.
“Aurora.”
“Yes, yes! I’m here!” The woman appeared hurriedly. She seemed to be a little disheveled, seemingly having just woken up from a nap.
“Aria.” The child appeared next to Aurora, and unlike Aurora, she looked quite decent.
“Touch my hand,” Victor ordered.
Aria wasted no time and accepted the order. Aurora hesitated a little, but in the end, she did as she was told.
In the next moment, the two World Trees opened their eyes widely.
“This…” Aurora couldn’t believe what she was feeling.
“Father…?” Aria turned her head 80 degrees to the left in confusion.
“This Energy… It’s the same as our father, like you…”
“Focus. Questions for later.” Victor spoke seriously.
“Y-Yes.” Aurora nodded.
The Positive and Negative Energy left Victor’s body and went towards Aurora and Aria, where the two Energies entered into resonance, and in the next moment,
Victor claimed this planet for himself. Now, with just a thought, he could appear here and even alter the planet if he wanted.
And with how Victor’s Main World was within him, along with the Egyptian Pantheon, he quite literally carried an army within him.
Velnorah looked at this entire process with a neutral gaze, but inside, she was utterly shocked. ‘It’s the same… This process is the same as what the Overlords do to claim a planet… However, he’s taking it one step further. Other Overlords don’t claim the World Tree like he is doing now.’
Finished with his work, Victor said: “I’m going now. Velnorah.”
“W-Wait, you can’t-.” Aurora tried to say something, but she wasn’t fast enough.
“Yes.” Velnorah nodded, and in the next moment, the two disappeared.
“Damn it!” Aurora grumbled irritably. “Just what did he do? What is this absurd Energy I’m feeling!?” It was worth mentioning that Aurora had no knowledge of what she’d just experienced.
After all, it was something completely new. She knew that, in some way, she was Victor’s ‘subordinate’ in the most literal sense of the word, but at the same time, this subordination had the same feeling that she had when in the presence of her father.
So, for her, it was not like she was a subordinate but rather like she was returning home?
Aurora didn’t know, and that’s why she wanted answers!
Meanwhile, Aria just looked at her elder sister as she muttered, “Father…”
