Chapter 108: Victor meets the in-laws. 2

'What did this boy just say? Scathach? Huh? Are they that close?'

Those were the thoughts of men. They know that when someone calls the name Scathach inappropriately, that person's chances of dying are over 99%, and if this man is saying her name so casually, it must have been allowed. After all, this is her mansion, so she must surely be listening in on the conversation from somewhere.

Natasha and Agnes were more shocked by something else, 'He just said he did the same thing to Scathach!? How is he still alive!?'

Unlike the two men, Natasha and Agnes were the ones who knew Scathach best, and both women knew how irrational this woman could be.

She is more irrational than them put together!

And for those who know Scathach and her irrationality to hear that someone spoke those same rude words to Scathach and survived... It was just too unbelievable.

The woman they knew wouldn't allow herself to be offended. She was too proud!

"Hey, Bitch. Don't stick your nose in subjects where you're not asked." Violet told her mother.

"Violet, respect your mother!" Agnes didn't like what Violet said.

"When you are a mother who respects me, I will respect you," Violet spoke in a dry tone.

"Ugh. This girl is so irrational; I wonder who she got that from."

"…" The people who knew Agnes well enough were silent, 'If it wasn't you who she got it from, who would it be!?' That's what they wanted to say, but they were silent.

Violet was the copy of Agnes when she was younger, with the only difference being that Violet is calmer than her mother.

"Darling, please don't tease our parents," Sasha spoke in a low voice.

"Yes, even though they are like that, they are still counts/ex-counts." Ruby continued in the same low voice.

"Hmm... I'll try, but I don't promise anything," Victor said. He knew a lot about his personality, and he knew he couldn't promise anything related to certain matters, mainly matters involving conflicts. He is the kind of man who pays for everything in the same coin.

If someone treats Victor kindly, Victor will be kind to that person, but... If that person treats Victor with a hostile attitude, it's a hostile attitude that they will receive from Victor.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and blood for blood. That's how his father raised him, and even after he turned into a vampire, that mindset didn't change.

"Well, I think that's enough?" Sasha didn't know how to feel hearing Victor's words.

"Yes, as long as you don't cause any problems, everything should be fine..."

Despite having said that, Ruby, Violet, and Sasha knew he would do something irrational. After all, they knew a lot about Victor's personality.

Suddenly, footsteps started to be heard, and soon a group of people arrived.

Yuki, Kaguya, Natalia, Maria, and Luna, the five maids.

Yuki and Kaguya are Victor's personal maids.

Natalia is Violet's maid.

Maria is Sasha's maid.

And Luna is the maid of Ruby and of the entire Scarlett Clan.

"Master." Yuki looked quite happy for a moment, but she quickly controlled her expression.

"Hi, my maid." Victor smiled.

Yuki couldn't help but flash a happy little smile; she wasn't forgotten!

"Master, you're back," Kaguya spoke.

"Yes, my maid." Victor continued with the same smile on his face.

".." Kaguya nodded with a slight smile on her face.

"Lord Victor," Maria spoke.

"Hi, Maria. How are you feeling?"

"Horrible." She was honest.

"That's a good thing." Victor was also honest.

"..." Maria's stoic face almost broke when she heard Victor's response.

"Are you feeding?"

"Yes, the maids are kind enough to bring me food... Although it's not fresh." As a Ghoul, her diet was based on human flesh and not blood. Honestly, she didn't even know how to feel anymore, to eat human flesh and find it tasty...

This experience left her very upset. But she had no choice since she didn't want to become a decaying and rotten creature like a zombie. At the end of the day, she's still a woman, and she cares what she looks like.

She had a lot of time to research her current race, and she found that if she eats human flesh, she could avoid a bit of the Ghoul's decay process... And that's what she did...

At the end of the day, she didn't want to become an irrational beast.

"I see..." Victor said, but he didn't sympathize with Maria's situation, "Try to eat well. It's good for your health." He learned of Maria's condition through his wives, and he found the situation amusing, the woman turning into something more horrible than she previously hunted.

"Where are the remaining girls?" Victor asked.

"Lacus is sleeping. Pepper is watching cartoons. Siena is doing some unfinished work. But, Countess Scathach, I don't know where she is. And June is in one of the rooms hiding in fear of being 'devoured' by the 'monsters' of this mansion." The person who answered was Yuki.

"It's not cartoons," Ruby muttered, 'why doesn't anyone understand this?' She thought.

"It's okay, it's okay. I understand you." Sasha patted Ruby's head.

"I don't want your pity," Ruby spoke in a cold voice.

"It's all right," Sasha spoke again with a sympathetic look.

"...Ugh, I think it was a mistake to introduce you to the anime world."

"..." Kaguya looked at Yuki with a dry look, as if silently judging her.

"...What?"

"Nothing." She didn't want to look petty since she knew that Yuki was also Victor's maid.

"June...?" Victor puts a hand to his chin as if thinking, "Oh, that greedy witch." He finally remembered her.

'Coming to think about it, I still have the card she gave me.' Victor thought.

"Why is she here?" He asked.

"I asked her to investigate something for Lady Sasha, and she came back with information," Natalia replied.

Oh, that's a good thing. Let me know if you need anything." Victor didn't care too much because he knew that his wives would ask for his help if he was needed for anything.

"Of course." Natalia smiled.

"..." Natasha, William, Agnes, and Adonis were looking at Victor all the time as if sizing him up, and seeing how he spoke, seeing his gestures that looked like a natural leader, they couldn't help nodding in satisfaction.

'Scathach taught him well.' They think.

What they didn't know was that Victor was naturally like that, and he wasn't even trying to do anything.

...

In a place far from the royal capital, in a forest of many giant trees that could easily surpass the height of many buildings in the human world.

'Annoying, Annoying, what's this annoying feeling?'

Scathach was standing in the middle of the forest, and around her were several destroyed trees, the ground was broken, and in some places, a large amount of ice could be seen.

It was pretty obvious that she was taking out all her frustration and anger on the surrounding landscape.

After finding out that her disciple was climbing the stairs to adulthood, the uncomfortable feeling she had been feeling since she learned that today was Victor and Violet's meeting grew like a volcano erupting, and she was irritated!

And to make matters worse, she didn't even know why she was so angry, she just felt like breaking something or someone!

Because of that, to avoid doing something she regrets in the future, she decided to isolate herself a little. Maybe that would help her improve her mood.

Destroying some trees and mountains, maybe hunting some wild beasts, she had a lot of ways to calm down.

And it's been two days since she's been isolated in this forest. She tried everything to control her emotions; she even tried to meditate.

But...

"This is not working." Scathach's red eyes were glowing dangerously. "I'm just getting angrier."

'You guys should know that it's pretty obvious that after the date, they're going to have sex.' She remembered Agnes' words again.

"FUCK!"

BOOOOOOOM!

She stomped on the ground so hard that the ground broke into a cobweb shape.

"Why am I so angry!?" She punched the tree.

BOOOOOOOOM!

Unconsciously, she put in too much force, and the poor tree was evaporated from existence, and the damage didn't stop there. All the trees in a straight line suffered very serious damage.

"What is happening?" She had never felt this way in her life. In two thousand years of existence, she had never felt this irritating feeling in her chest.

Despite living a long time, Scathach was never a woman to get involved in relationships. Instead, she preferred to train and get stronger. She had a mindset that she had acquired since she was a little girl; The strong are always right.

Have you lost your farm to bandits? The culprit is you, who are weak!

They invaded your village, raped your wife, killed your daughter, and killed you? The culprit is you, who are weak!

Used you as a disposable pawn in a war!? The culprit is you, who are weak!

'Weakness disgusts me!' That was what the young Scathach thought.

She didn't want to be like those weak people, and, because of that, she trained, trained, and trained!

She evolved her power that in the past could only create a small ice cube into what it is today.

But as I spent two thousand years running the planet, and meeting new people, and experiencing new experiences, that mindset slowly began to change and form the personality that she has today.

She is much calmer than in the past, she is more understanding than in the past, she is much more experienced than in the past... Of course, this change only applies to those close to her.

But one thing that hasn't changed even after living so long is, "The strong are always right."

In fact, that mindset only strengthened when she saw kings, and emperors who built their country from scratch, fall into ruins in a few years because they weren't strong enough.

That mindset has been strengthened even more in all the wars she has fought in the past, 'If you don't have power, you will be trampled like an insect.'

She didn't want to be on the side of the people who lost.

Because of that, she never slackened her training.

Because of that mindset, she's strong now. Although since she was a little girl, she always liked to fight and train, which also helped her in her long journey.

"That smell…" She sniffed the air a little.

"Victor…" Slowly, her expression began to change.

Badump, Badump!

Her heart began to pound harder, and the thirst she was feeling began to become unbearable.

"My idiot disciple is back…." She spoke with a big smile on her face that showed all her sharp teeth, "I'll make him pay for making me feel like this~."

Her red eyes glowed even brighter, and soon she disappeared, leaving behind a destroyed forest.

Chapter 109: Victor meets the in-laws. 3

Victor was currently sitting on a large black sofa, and behind him were the five maids who were waiting for any possible orders from their respective masters.

On his right side, Violet was sitting with a small smile on her face as she held Victor's arm possessively, but unlike before, when she looked like a teenager in love.

Now, she looked like a real wife and looked much more mature than before.

On his left side was Sasha, who was next to Victor, and on Sasha's side was Ruby, who had a cold look on her face.

Victor was somehow feeling a DejaVu with this situation and feels like he has done this in the past; 'Oh, it was the first time I met my master.'

He felt it happened a long time ago, even though it was only 6 months.

Noticing the silence in the room as if everyone was waiting for him to say something, he said:

"Let's introduce ourselves first, as it's the first time I've met my 'in-laws'." Victor displayed a small smile.

"..." Adonis smiled. He liked a little how Victor wasn't affected by their looks:

"It's okay with me." He displayed a small smile.

And for the first time, everyone could really see why in the past he was called a young man of great beauty.

'I had forgotten how handsome he was... Agnes is lucky... If only I could have kidnapped him before.' Natasha thought.

The only ones who weren't affected by Adonis' beauty were Victor, Violet, Ruby, Sasha, Kaguya, Yuki, who was already used to Adonis' beauty, Natalia for the same reason as Yuki, and Luna, who didn't care much for the existence of the most beautiful man.

Also, Maria who only saw Adonis as a walking piece of meat, even salivating a little. She feels that if she eats him, it's going to taste really good… In the literal sense, of course.

Agnes huffed with pride when she saw her husband, as her face said, 'That's my husband!'

Victor saw this attitude out of the corner of his eye and smiled a little inwardly, 'She really does look like Violet.'

"My name is Adonis Snow, and this beautiful woman is my wife, Agnes Snow."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Victor Walker..." Victor introduced himself, but, suddenly, his face showed a strange expression.

"Adonis? You mean that Adonis who was loved by two goddesses?" Despite not knowing much about mythology, Victor knew about the myth of Adonis and remembers seeing it from a movie in the past.

The saying: 'he's handsome like an Adonis'. He didn't know what that saying was at the time, but when he searched the internet, he found it was about a Greek myth of a man who was loved by two goddesses.

Persephone, the queen of the underworld, and Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love…

"Yes."

'So it was real….' Victor had suspected this before, but he didn't think it was possible; 'If Adonis is in front of me, then do these two women exist too? Are they goddesses? Or something different?' He was a little curious now.

"..." Victor looked Adonis up and down, and he understood; he really was handsome... Divinely handsome... But he saw something in Adonis' tired smile.

"You suffered, huh…."

"Well, I was born handsome but without strength." He continued with the same smile.

"A curse, huh?"

"Yes."

"So..." Victor looked at Agnes.

"Was it her?"

"Sometimes, yes, but she is better than the other two."

"I see... But you seem to like it."

"Well, life has its ups and downs, and if you think too much about the past, you will go crazy."

"Wise words coming from you." Victor flashed a small smile.

"Although I look like I am, I'm old, you know?" He laughed

"An old man…."

"Indeed…"

"..." Agnes and Violet were speechless. Why are they talking in codes? Why are they talking like they're old friends!? What is happening!?

"What are you talking about?" William asked.

"..." Natasha was curious too.

"Oh, it's nothing." The two spoke at the same time.

"..." William and Natasha were looking at the two of them strangely.

"Anyway, My name is Annasthashia Fulger. I'm Sasha's mother."

Victor looked at the woman and spoke neutrally. "Yes, I Know."

"Oh? You seem to have a very negative opinion of me."

"Knowing that my wife was tortured just for your fun is not a very pleasant thing, right?" Victor didn't like hitting the bush and got right to the point.

"…" Suddenly, the whole atmosphere of the place became more tense.

"D-Darling." Sasha grabbed Victor's arm and started pulling in an attempt to get him to stop talking.

"Heh~, aren't you very overprotective? How can you judge me when you don't know anything?"

"Hmm, you're right." Victor nodded in agreement with Natasha's words and closed his eyes as he began to think about it.

"Right? I may have a reason for doing this."

"And that's not unusual either, you know, right? Countess Scathach did the same thing to Ruby, so why aren't you pissed at her too?"

"Hmm, Hmm. You're right." Victor continued nodding, agreeing with Natasha's words.

Suddenly, Victor opens his eyes, "But I don't care if you're right or not."

"Eh...?"

Victor's eyes began to glow blood red, "You hurt my wife, look."

He pointed to Sasha, who was shaking as she held Victor's arm.

"..." Natasha and William looked at their daughter in silence.

"You traumatized her…." Victor clenched his teeth angrily, "You traumatized your own daughter. And that's reason enough for me to be annoyed with you."

Unlike Ruby, who Scathach trained/tortured to be strong and independent, Natasha trained her daughter just for her own fun. She didn't even care about Sasha.

The process was the same, but the goal was different.

Victor's anger was so great that it was starting to affect Violet and Ruby, who were feeling his emotions through the connection.

'I need to stay calm, don't let yourself be influenced.' Ruby thought as she squeezed her hands, she needed to be the one with a calm mind, but then she looked at Violet and saw something that surprised her.

'Is she calm...?' Ruby looked at Violet's hands and saw her squeezing her hands tightly. 'Wrong, she's not, but she's holding back.'

She exhibited a small satisfied smile, 'She has matured.'

Adonis saw it too, and he smiled pleased at his daughter's coming of age, but he didn't know how it felt to know that his precious daughter was 'contaminated'. However, he knew that day would eventually come, and he also respected His daughter's decision… He just felt complicated as a father.

"Hmm... So what?" Natasha spoke after thinking a bit.

"..." Victor continued to stare at Natasha.

"She is my daughter, and she belongs to me. I can do what I want with her." Natasha smiled and spoke.

"I had her, I raised her, she belongs to my Clan, as long as I'm the leader of my Clan, she'll do what I want, right?" Natasha looked at her daughter.

"…" Sasha's body visibly trembled as she heard her mother's words.

"…" Suddenly, the whole atmosphere in the house was silent again, and the atmosphere around was heavier.

People who knew Victor quickly looked to him to see what his reaction was, and surprisingly, his face was neutral, and he didn't look angry.

Victor looked at William, "And you? What is your opinion about this?"

"Me? Hmm... I don't care?" William replied after thinking for a while. He really didn't feel anything since he only cared about Natasha and the power Clan Fulger has to offer his family, and Sasha is just a tool for him to have that safe power... Not to mention that he is too submissive to Natasha for him to try to oppose her.

But in the end… he doesn't care so much. After all, living life with a Countess has its benefits.

"I see..." Victor lowered his face a little, and his expression was hidden by his hair. The killing intent coming out of his body was causing visible discomfort in the people next to him.

"Father…" Sasha's body shook even harder, and she looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

'I know they thought that of me, I always knew… But why am I sad? I should be used to it by now….'

Ruby quickly hugs her friend to support her, and this time she didn't hide her anger.

'Master...' Yuki was worried about Victor.

Kaguya, on the other hand, just joined Victor's shadows.

Suddenly Victor's killing intent disappeared, as he lifted his head and smiled with a kind face, his smile was so peaceful, it was so warm, that he didn't even seem to be angry a few seconds ago.

"..." William and Natasha opened their eyes in shock. They didn't expect this reaction.

'Looks like you made your decision, my son-in-law.' Adonis' smile grew a little in approval.

Even women who knew Victor well didn't expect this reaction from him.

'I'm sorry, my beloved wife.' Victor patted Sasha's head.

"!!!?" Listening to Victor's thoughts. Sasha, Violet, and Ruby looked at Victor.

"Don't-" Before Sasha could say anything.

"Darli-" Before Ruby and Violet could stop Victor.

Victor spoke in a gentle voice that sent shivers down Natasha and William's spine:

"Then you two don't need to exist."

"Wh-" The two didn't have time to react.

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

Victor shot towards the two and grabbed them both by the face with his hands, then, using their bodies, he broke through the mansion wall easily. When he arrived outside the mansion, his body was covered in lightning, and, using the lightning, he flew into the skies and took them both away from the royal capital.

"Darling, NOOO!" Sasha yelled.

RUMBLE, RUMBLE!

Everyone can only hear the lightning sounds in the distance.

Chapter 110: The anger of a husband.

"…He really did that..." Adonis doesn't know how to feel. Is he proud of his courage? Or is he stunned by his stupidity? There's no way a newborn vampire can beat an older vampire.

But regardless of his feelings, Adonis smiled. As a man, he approved of Victor's attitude and wished he could do something like that in the past, but unfortunately, he wasn't that crazy or had enough powers to perform such a feat in the past.

"My master is crazy! He's going to die!" Yuki completely lost her composure.

"Lord Victor..." Maria felt an irritation in her chest when she thought about Victor's possible death.

"Ruby..." Luna looked at Ruby worriedly.

"We have to go after him now! He's going to die!" Sasha was freaking out, her face a tearful mess. She wasn't worried about her parents because, at this point, she didn't care about her parents anymore. She just didn't want to lose another loved one again.

Ruby hugged Sasha tighter, "Calm down, okay?"

"B-But," Sasha was going to say something else, but when she saw Ruby's cold, lifeless face, she froze in shock. She was too scary.

"Okay?"

"Yes..."

"Father, Mother." Violet got up and looked at her parents.

"Don't let my husband die, please…." She bit her lip in frustration, she didn't like feeling weak like this, but opponents are older vampires. Only time can bridge that gap.

'If my husband dies…I….' Violet's eyes grew lifeless, and she was thinking about the worst possible outcome.

"VIOLET!" Ruby surprisingly raised her voice to Violet.

"E-Eh?" Violet was surprised by Ruby's sudden voice and looked at her friend.

"Don't think about nonsense."

"…I…Okay."

Adonis and Agnes looked at this demonstration with interest, then they looked at each other for a while and seemed to be thinking of a decision.

"Come on, we have to prevent a tragedy from happening." Adonis made a decision.

"Yes." If Adonis made a decision, Agnes would join him.

"... A tragedy? What are you talking about." Then, suddenly, everyone hears a woman's voice.

"!!!" Everyone looks at Scathach.

Scathach looked around and saw signs of struggle, "What happened?" She asked this time in an orderly tone.

"Darling attacked Sasha's parents. He didn't like how indifferent Sasha's parents were to her." Violet explained.

"... My disciple... attacked two former counts...?" Scathach opened her mouth in shock. She couldn't even believe what she was saying.

A colossal pressure suddenly fell on everyone in the mansion, as Scathach's smile grew, and...

She laughed.

"W-What?" Agnes did not understand this sudden burst of laughter.

"Mother?" Ruby saw that her mother looked quite happy.

"To think that my disciple was bold enough to attack two former counts just because his wife was harmed." This was an attitude she very much approved of because not being afraid to face a stronger opponent is an essential trait if you want to get stronger.

She looked at Sasha, and suddenly her face twisted in anger:

"What are you doing!?" Her voice was so loud that the glass around her shattered.

"H-Heh?"

"Your husband is out there fighting for you. Stop crying like a child!"

"…" Sasha opened her mouth.

"Get up, wash your face, and stand up like a proud woman! Stand up like a proud wife who trusts her husband! That expression of yours now is just shameful!"

"M-Mother…" Ruby wanted to say something, but…

"Don't interrupt me." Scathach's eyes sparkled as she looked at Ruby.

"..." Ruby gulped.

Then she looked at Sasha again, and seeing Sasha's face slowly changing, she smiled in satisfaction.

"...You're right... This is no time to be crying." Sasha wiped her face and got up from the couch. 'I won't lose someone else important to me again.' She clenched her fists with determination.

"Good!" Scathach's smile grew when she saw Sasha's determined expression.

"I'll go first." She said,

"Are you planning to intervene?" Adonis asked.

"Huh? Of course not, this is a fight my disciple chose for himself, and he wouldn't want me to step in and fight in his place."

"Oh…"

"I just won't let him get killed if he loses. After all, he's mine~. Only I can kill him~" Scathach spoke with a seductive smile at the end.

"Now, I understand why she likes that boy so much…" Adonis smiled a little when he saw Scathach's expression. "They're basically flour from the same bag."

"Darling?" Agnes raised an eyebrow and looked at Adonis like a hawk.

"Hahaha~" He just laughed innocently, and ignored his wife's gaze.

Ending the conversation, Scathach kicked at the ground, which cracked into a web from her strength, and disappeared somewhere.

"He's just mine, huh?..." Ruby's eyes weren't pretty now, and she just thought that she should talk to her mom about Victor and her feelings about Victor in the future.

'It's a waste of time to postpone the inevitable.' She has decided that she is going to face her mother head-on.

"We should go," Agnes spoke this time while her eyes were shining with curiosity. Although she was a little scared, her curiosity was stronger. She never saw that kind of reaction from Scathach!

"Yes," Adonis spoke.

Violet walked towards Sasha, "Come on, Sasha. We have to go after our husband."

"Yes, we do, and then we have to teach him a lesson for making us worry so much."

"Yes," Violet smiled kindly.

"..." Ruby flashed a small smile when she saw Violet and Sasha's interaction; 'No longer as friends, but as sisters, huh? Looks like I got two more sisters.' She laughed a little in amusement.

"What just happened!?" Siena appeared along with Lacus and Pepper, who was hiding behind Siena.

"My husband happened. Come on, we need to go after them." Ruby's mood suddenly became more serious.

"Ugh, it's always him, isn't it?... Okay, I will." Siena spoke.

"Me too," Lacus said.

"I don't want to be home alone, so I'm going too."

"We will too." Yuki, Luna, and Maria said.

"Natalia, can you make the portal?" Violet asked.

"It's impossible. I don't know where they are, and if I don't have the exact location in mind, the portal will become random." Natalia spoke.

"Hmm, so we have to go running."

"Yes, as I'm only a human, I can't keep up with you, so I'll stay at the mansion."

"Okay, let's go!" Violet disappeared, and soon all the vampires in the mansion followed Violet.

"Well, that got interesting, didn't it?" Then, hearing someone's voice, Natalia looked at June, who was also at the mansion.

"Yes. I wonder what the consequences of all this will be."

"Me too... How about watching them then?" Natalia puts her hand in her pocket, her hand seems to disappear for a few seconds, and then she pulls out a crystal ball.

Seeing the device in Natalia's hand, June said with a smile on her face:

"That's a good idea."

...

Victor knew a fact... Yes, he knew he was weaker than both of them, and despite knowing that, he attacked them.

The reason? There are many. But the main one was; 'They hurt my wife.'

No matter the reason, no matter what they thought at the time when doing what they did, he didn't care.

What matters is; 'my wife cried...'

'And I never want to see that face again.' Killing Sasha's parents can't be the perfect solution to this problem. He knows that. He also doubts his ability to achieve this feat, but he knows something.

"They need to be beaten up!" And from the moment he decided what to do, and started planning his next steps. He knew he couldn't fight them head-on, so the best way was a surprise attack, let down the enemy's guard, and attack!

And most importantly, don't hold back! The opponent is an older vampire, so go all out from the start!

"ORAAAA!"

Victor throws the two vampires onto a mountain.

BOOOOOM!

They crashed into the mountain and got stuck in the rock.

"Ouch, this kid is really strong," William commented with a carefree expression as he looked up at the sky. But, despite having said that, he didn't seem to have been damaged.

"The way he uses my clan's power is very interesting, and he doesn't seem to take damage like me," Natasha commented.

Victor pointed both of his hands at them, and soon a sphere of fire began to be created. What is the vampire's most obvious weakness?

Fire... And that he has to spare!

"Burn!'

A gigantic sphere of fire flew towards them.

"Fuck." Despite being older vampires, they know they shouldn't underestimate Clan Snow's fire.

William tried to get up, but he noticed something; he was being frozen. He snorted, 'does he think this can stop me?' But the moment he touched the ice, his hand was burned.

"Well…" He looked at his hand.

"Hmm, this way of using fire is interesting too." William's body turns to smoke, and he gets out of his restraints.

"Yes." Natasha's body starts to be covered by the lightning, and she breaks the ice.

Just as she was about to use her lightning bolt to escape the fire's area of effect, a wall of ice appeared in front of her.

"Huh?"

The fireball hit the ice wall and exploded!

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

William and Natasha walk away.

"Why did he do that?"

"Hmm..." William didn't understand either.

Despite being older vampires, they were not warriors, one was a lazy submissive, and the other was a woman who only knew how to gamble.

They rarely participated in fights, and in most fights, they overcame the opponent with pure power or with their influence.

But... Living for so long gives them life experience. After all, they've seen a lot of fighters fighting in the past.

Soon a dense fog began to be created around.

"He blocked our view." Natasha.

"Clever." William.

"Will you take care of him for me? I'm lazy." William spoke.

"Hmm, I'll take care of him." They were carefree since, in their minds, there was no way a vampire who had just outgrown his diapers would harm them in any way.

Yes, fire is dangerous, but there are several ways to avoid fire.

[Master, you can't face them head-on.]

"I know," Victor spoke in a low voice.

[Use my shadows, the two of us together can do some damage to them.]

"We never fought together, My maid."

[It doesn't matter, just trust me. Do you trust me?]

Victor flashed a small smile, "Always."

[...] Kaguya displayed a gentle smile within Victor's shadow; it was a shame Victor couldn't see it.

"Kaguya?"

[...Remember, they're both older vampires, a head-on fight like you like should be avoided at all costs, and... Though they're older vampires, they still have vampire weaknesses, but do not forget. ... to live for so long, they acquire some resistance to these weaknesses, so they will not be so easy to kill with them.] Kaguya began to give instructions to Victor

"..." Victor listened in silence. He already knew that, from the beginning. He knew, but he wanted to be in tune with Kaguya. So, because of that, he listened in silence.

[They will underestimate you. They won't take you seriously, and you should take every chance you get. And most importantly, don't hold back.]

"Okay."

[Now attack William head-on!]

Victor flashed a predatory smile.

Victor looks at William with his red eyes glowing and creates an ice shelf behind him, and using the platform as a boost, he flies towards William.

William could feel something flying towards them, and he quickly braced himself, his hand stiffening, and soon a claw was created.

"Come, I will rip your heart out."

The moment Victor would get close to him, Victor disappeared.

"Huh?" He didn't understand, and he couldn't even feel him anymore.

Suddenly, Victor appears beside William and attacks him.

William quickly defends himself with his arm, but that was a bad idea.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! My arm."

Using an ice Greatsword that was covered with fire, Victor cut off William's entire arm!

[Good~] Kaguya's shadow exhibited a scary smile.
