"Hybrids? like a mixture of vampire and werewolf.... something like that?" Krishna said
"To be more specific a cross between a noble Vampire and a Werewolf" Siena cleared Krishna's doubt
"Are hybrids strong?" Krishna and Victor asked at the same time.
"Unlike movies, hybrids aren't strong. They're like an error in the genetic code; they're something like a donkey." Ruby started explaining
"Oh?" Victor looked at Ruby.
Ruby continued, "Werewolves and vampires are two very different species genetically, and physiologically from each other, to put it in simple words, we are the opposite of each other, because of that quirk, we can't mix."
"And, when we get mixed up, an extremely rare case can happen, a hybrid can be born..." Violet spoke in disgust
"As we are very different species from each other, the hybrid will be born with various genetic problems." Sasha continued, "they will be sterile, and they will have a short life expectancy. Sometimes they are born with unusual diseases that can affect the two species; because of that, when a hybrid is identified, it is immediately hunted and eliminated by the two races."
"I wonder what the Horseman Clan was thinking about protecting a hybrid. Don't they know they can cause a pandemic at any time? What are the royal guards doing? Those old eunuchs wouldn't allow that kind of monstrosity to run around." Violet was surprisingly more involved in the conversation.
"They're quiet…Surprisingly quiet…" Siena spoke.
"Those old people who keep talking about how the past was a thousand flowers?" Ruby asked, then she frowned, "Do the king's guards have some sort of agreement with that Clan?"
"That's not possible; the royal guards are just a kind of police to keep everything in order. They only follow the orders of the royal family…" Sasha spoke, then she opened her eyes.
"Oh~, looks like you understand" Scathach exhibited a small smile...
"Someone from the royal family is supporting that clan," Sasha spoke with disgust, she started to think of the princes and princesses of the king, but only one came to mind when she thought of this kind of dirty scheme.
"The first prince?" She said.
"Probably I'm not sure yet, but that's something he would do; he doesn't hide his intentions of desire about the throne much," Scathach spoke in disinterest, she doesn't like political schemes, she prefers to solve everything by force, though she knows that not everything can be resolved that way, especially delicate situations involving the royal family.
As she knows she doesn't have the patience for this kind of political bullshit, she avoids getting too involved in politics. After all, she knows that at some point, she's going to get angry, and she's going to end up destroying another clan of noble vampires.
"Are Hybrids that rare that it would be worth it to put the title on the line?" Krishna asked
"Yes. They are very rare, and there are a lot of stories about hybrids. Most of those stories are as bad as you've just heard, but some of those stories have been twisted to think that hybrid blood is something 'delicious'." Scathach nearly threw up.
"...You seem to have experienced it," Krishna commented.
"In the past, I found a hybrid and drank its blood... That was one of the things I regret the most in this life; I felt like I was eating garbage. It's disgusting."
"…" Lacus, Ruby, and Pepper didn't know how to react to this new information, but one thing was going through the sisters' minds, why did their mother always reveal pieces of her past so easily when Krishna asks something?
When her own daughters ask a question, she always avoids answering something...
"My mom was basically fooled by the hybrid stories. And, because she was bored, she didn't think twice about betting the vampire count title, and in the end, she lost..." Sasha got angry, and she started to speak:
"That dumb blonde! The dumb blonde stereotype must have been invented by her!"
"…" Victor didn't know how to react to Sasha's words; in the end, he just patted her head.
"If Mom got the invitation, then was our clan invited to see the game?" Ruby decided to ask something she was curious about.
"Indeed. I wasn't planning on going at first, but the situation has changed~" She looked at Krishna and Victor with a small smile on her face.
"Hmm?" Feeling her stare, he looked at Scathach confused.
"..." Seeing their mother's look, the sisters just visibly sighed. They could clearly understand that she accepted the invitation just for them to see how the game works... their mother's interest in these two is reaching the point of no return.
She's even changing her habits just to give them both more experience in the vampire world!
"When will the game take place?" Sasha asked.
"In 6 months," Siena replied in Scathach's place.
"Why so long?"
"Probably because Clan Horseman wants to prepare."
Siena takes the card that was on the table and throws it toward Sasha; before Sasha can take the card, Violet puts her hand in front of her and takes the card.
"..." Sasha looked at Violet with neutral eyes.
"...Humpf!" Violet snorted, then she opened the letter:
"Blah, Blah, political bullshit, Blah, Blah." She started to read.
"Oh? Are all Clans with the title Count invited? That Bitch is confident of winning, huh?"
"Well, it's my aunt, unlike my mom, she never lost a bet, because of that, she built a big noble clan practically in less than 500 years," Sasha said.
"Question…" Pepper held up her hand.
Feeling the stares of everyone in the room, Pepper asked cutely, "What are we going to do about Victor and Krishna's powers...?"
Ruby opened her eyes a little, "Oh... You're right, sister. If they find out he's a vampire who has the three powers of the Count's houses, trouble could ensue and if they found out that Krishna is a human who can use mana... that would bring trouble from every race!."
"So, are we going to seal their powers?" Lacus suggested.
"If they want to capture me they are free to try... I will kill as many as needed to make my point."
"Hell no! if it's trouble they want, they're very welcome to look for trouble~."
"Hell no! If it's problems they want they will have them, I won't limit myself or hide my powers just because I'm afraid of problems."
Victor and Scathach looked at Krishna in unison who wore a smile of a predator.... nobody expected this kind of response from a guy who was hiding his power for so long.
Scathach also showed a predatory smile while staring at Krishna.
"Oh Fuck..." Pepper, Siena, and Lacus realized it was too late to make Scathach lose interest in Krishna.
"…I've decided something," Scathach suddenly spoke up.
"…" Everyone looked at the red-haired woman, then she flashes a small smile at the others.
"I will start training them from today~."
Suddenly Scathach disappears and appears in front of Victor.
"Not that again!" Victor instinctively jumped back.
"You're still too slow to avoid me~" Scathach appeared behind him and lightly attacked his neck, but a small block of ice stopped her hand on Victor's neck.
Victor covers his body in lightning and kicks Scathach toward her face; every time he made these moves, he had a big smile on his face:
"Oh? You have good instincts, I like it~" She grabs Victor's leg, the lightning striking the ground was heard all around, and even the pressure of the wind made a hole in the wall behind Scathach; it just shows how much force Victor put in his attack.
"But it's still not enough," She decided to put on more strength, she squeezed Victor's foot tighter and pulled towards her.
Crack!
Victor grits his teeth and tries not to react to his foot being broken by Scathach's grip.
He placed an ice shield on his stomach, but this time, Scathach easily passed through the ice but there was a hand that held Scathach's hand in place.
"You will come for me after this so I will not let my brother be kidnapped this easily." Krishna smiled widely which showed his teeth.
"You don't have to do this every time you know.... we will gladly follow you right Victor"
"Of course"
Scathach's body visibly trembled, her cheeks turned a little red, and her smile grew, "Good, Good! That's the spirit I want! follow me."
As soon as she disappeared, Victor used his eyes and continued to keep his senses focused on Scathach, and he said without turning around: "I'll train.
Krishna turned towards the three sisters and kissed them on their cheeks very quickly, "I will be back soon, Lacus don't sleep too much and train a little..... Siena, you take breaks between work ok, Pepper stop watching so much anime and train a little ."
Saying this Krishna disappears soon victor goes away as well.
Ruby and Sasha went to train while Violet decided to go to her home.
"I... will go train a little" Pepper said while rubbing her cheek
"Wait I will join you" Lacus said while she also rubbed her cheek
"........ damm him" Siena went to work while smiling and cursing Krishna but she was also rubbing her cheek.
But before everyone could disperse Siena dropped a bomb as a last attack on Victor
"Well, I'll go back to my job. I predict my mom will be confined for six months with that man..." Siena smirked, then she spoke in a shocked voice, "Wait, this isn't a bad thing for you guys? After all, you saw what happened, right? I wonder what will happen if my mom is alone with that one for six months~."
"!!!" The eyes of the three wives began to glow, and a suffocating pressure began to leave their bodies.
"Hiiii!" Pepper, who was close to Ruby, quickly fled and got behind her older sister.
"Forget what I said; I'll get my Darling!" Violet quickly changed her mind.
"Indeed," Ruby said in a cold tone.
"It's dangerous to leave that woman alone with Victor," The three look at each other and then nod to themselves; then they disappear, leaving traces of their respective powers.
"HAHAHAHA," Siena laughed, she finally got a little revenge, she was also very petty like Victor.
"Big Sister…" Pepper whispered.
"Hmm?" She looked at Pepper.
"Our mom isn't going to like this, and if she finds out it was you who came up with the idea... Well." Pepper couldn't finish the sentence, she just looked sad.
"Oh Fuck," Siena's face darkened, she felt that every time she tried to provoke Victor, she was digging her own grave.
'Well he will save me.........!!!! what am I thinking again!!' Siena shook her head and went to work.
