Chapter 38 - In-Laws

Victoria, Tatsuya, Hacate just looked at Krishna dumbfounded.

"Hmm maybe I did not phrase that good enough I wish to recruit you into my family. You see I am looking for talented people and I will bring them together to create my own faction in this universe."

"That is some lofty goals."

"Not for the only human mage."

"Hmmmmm you do know you are asking a lot right now"

"of course that is why I wished to Invite you on date and see if I could explain you the plan properly."

"And why are you trying to recruit me?"

"You have talent! to grow this big an empire with no backing takes a major amount of talent you possess."

"And you want me to add my whole empire into your little group."

"again with the condescension.... I see where Tatsuya got that. Such a shame...." Krishna gets up and walks toward the door.

"Go visit your niece, ungrateful woman. Even though you left your clan for a reason, I don't care. Sasha has nothing to do with it ."

"Hey, where are you going," Victoria asks a bit panicked.

"I want people with talent but if they think of me as greedy punk or not even respect me then there is no point wasting my time" Saying this Krishna just disappeared.

Victoria just looks at the spot where Krishna stood.

"That was a child's dream miss" Hecate says to Victoria

"I know yet my instincts tell me I missed something and might never get a chance again." Victoria looks a bit sad while looking toward the doorway.

***************

When Krishna got back he saw Lacus and Eleanor talking.

"Oh? I thought you were gone?" Lacus asked.

"I had some matters to settle with Siena, and I need to talk to that man."

Suddenly Eleonor heard Krishna's voice behind her.

"Yes, you have something to talk to me about."

"!!!" Eleonor jumped back, her heart beating too fast, "Don't do that... It scared me."

Eleonor took some deep breaths and collected herself.

"Krishna Godkill. I, Countess Eleonor Adrasteia, invite you to come to my territory as a special guest."

"Okay," Krishna said as he nonchalantly looked at Eleonor

"Eh?" Eleonor and Siena were surprised at how easily Victor accepted it.

"Wait! Krishna, do you understand what it means to visit her territory?" Siena squealed and quickly approached Krishna.

"I will pay a visit...?" Krishna tilted his head as if he didn't understand the problem.

"Idiot! You don't understand anything! Come here!" Siena takes Krishna's hand and suddenly pulls him aside.

Outside the mansion, Siena let go of Krishna's hand and pulled away, then she started talking to him:

"First, do you understand who Eleonor is?"

"Is she a countess?"

"Yes. And if she's a countess, she has territory."

"And what's wrong?"

"The problem is that her territory is not normal."

"Oh? Explain to me." Krishna was interested.

Siena felt a little uncomfortable when she saw his smile:

"Eleonor's territory is infested with Demonic beasts, and by inviting you as a 'special guest', she's basically asking you to fight with her against these beasts!"

"Demonic beasts? more powerful version of beasts in the forest I read about?"

"Essentially yes but there are many unknown factors there and most probably even more powerful beats."

"That's good is it not? To date I have not met anyone who could match my strength other than Scathach... even Victor is weaker than me till he has not gained proper control of his progenitor power."

"…Fuck. I forgot about your personality." Siena does a facepalm.

"..." Krishna looked at Siena for a few seconds. It was like he was thinking deeply about something, his eyes sparkled a little with interest, and he said:

"...Are you hiding something?"

Sigh...

She sighed.

"I can't say anything, you remember, right? I'm silenced by the magical contract, so only my mother can tell you that."

"Oh... But your sister-in-law Violet may know something, and she's not bound by the contract." She remembers hearing this from Violet in the past.

'Welllll I can destroy that contract.... but why to waste that wild card right now'

"I will ask her then." Krishna started walking towards the mansion.

"Will you go anyway?" Siena asked.

"Yes.... any chance to grow stronger and explore new things is always welcomed. If I wish to keep growing stronger opportunities like these must never be let go of."

"Of course, you would…." She felt like she asked a pointless question.

"I need to visit my mother and my girls first. It's been way too long"

'Even Grandma is missing them now'

'I am not, I talk to them daily and they are pissed at you.'

Krishna felt a shiver down his spine.

Krishna went back to the mansion again along with Siena and looked at Eleonor:

"Before making any decision, is this invitation just for me, or is it for everyone here too?" Krishna asked as he pointed to the three sisters present there.

"...It's for them too," Eleonor spoke after thinking for a moment.

"..." Pepper was confused as to be happy or sad.

Eleonor exhibited a small smile, "The invitation period is three months. I expect good news from you." Finishing what she had to do, she walked towards the exit.

"You should ask Victor as well..... He would be a good help in what so ever you wish to do" Krishna said to Eleonor.

"I will as soon as he comes back" Eleonor said as he walked out of the door.

When she left Scathach's mansion, Walter and Chloe were already waiting for her.

"He accepted?" Walter asked

"Yes, but he's not going now."

After seeing Krishna and Victor's performance in the arena, she decided that it would be advantageous to bring them to her territory to help her with a small problem.

Eleonor initially wanted her master's help, but Scathach refused, she said it wasn't her problem. Yet, because of that, Eleonor decided to ask Krishna and Victor for help, especially after seeing their fight against those heirs and seeing how easily they dominated their opponents.

She thought he would be a good help in her territory.

***************

In a mansion located slightly in the center of Nightingale's territory, a meeting was taking place.

"Where is my son-in-law?"

A woman wearing a rather noble white dress spoke, she had pale skin like all vampires, long blonde hair, and blue eyes, she looked very much like her sister Victoria Rider.

This woman's name was Annasthashia Fulger, the birth mother of Sasha Fulger and former holder of the title of vampire count.

"Bitch, what are you doing here? Why don't you go back to your husbands? Your hole must be feeling lonely right now." Said a woman wearing spandex pants, a black shirt with an animal coat, and small black glasses on her face.

She has long white hair and golden eyes, she is Agnes Snow, the birth mother of Violet Snow.

"Oh~?" The woman flashed a small smile, "But if I'm going back to my husband's, I'm going to bring your husband along with me too. The poor bastard must be bored with just having you as a wife."

"Bitch…" Agnes' golden eyes seemed to be glowing brightly, the room around her started to get warmer.

'Hehehe~ So easy.' Anastasia thought. She knew how to deal with Agnes. After all, this woman had a sick obsession with her husband, and if she just mentions her husband's name a few times, she'll be pissed off.

The room suddenly got colder, and Agnes flashed a small smile:

"Airport chest."

"Huh!?" A vein popped in Annasthashia's head.

"Isn't it? With your attractiveness, you could never conquer a man, and, because of that, you have to kidnap them. After all, you don't have confidence in your own appearance!" Agnes wrapped her arm around her chest like she was showing off how big she was.

"Haaah! At least I'm not a dairy cow who has insecurities with her relationship! Because you are afraid, right? You're afraid your precious 'Darling' will be stolen by other women!"

"Huuuh!?" A vein popped in Agnes' head.

"HaHaHa~" Hearing a familiar chuckle, the two women looked at the woman who was sitting on an ice throne elegantly.

"You guys never change, huh?" Scathach wore a mocking little smile.

"Humpf!" The two snorted and turned away.

"How long do you think it will take them to fight again, William?" A white-haired, violet-eyed man wearing a white suit asked the man beside him. The two of them were sitting on a sofa a little way from the three women.

"Hard to say, considering Natasha and Agnes are like cat and dog." The man replied, he had short blond hair and green eyes and was wearing a medieval nobleman's garb.

This man's name is William Salvatore Florence, he is Annasthashia's first husband, and he is also Sasha Fulger's biological father.

And Natasha was what he called his wife since her name was too long.

"Indeed." Adonis, Violet's father, agreed.

William looked at Adonis out of the corner of his eye; 'Has he become more beautiful?'

Adonis ignored William's gaze and looked at Scathach; 'She's still beautiful as ever….' He flashed a gentle little smile.

He felt very grateful for Scathach because it was this woman who saved him from a very precarious situation in the past...

"Darling...?" Agnes suddenly looks at Adonis with a dangerous look.

"What is it, Honey?" He continued to smile with the same gentle smile. Like a war veteran, he knew very well how to treat a woman…especially the crazy ones like Agnes.

"Hmm..." Agnes continued looking at Adonis for some time, seeing that his smile was going to her, she felt satisfied but was still suspicious, "Nothing..."

Agnes' instincts were on high alert, she knows that Adonis feels something for Scathach. Considering, the suspension bridge effect must have been activated when he was saved by this crazy woman in the past, and because of that, she didn't let her guard down!

'Tsk, I didn't want to bring my Darling to this place...' Agnes grumbled.

"Where is my son-in-law?" Annasthashia asked again.

Scathach looked at Annasthashia with a neutral gaze, "Natasha, do you intend to take back your title of vampire count?"

"Huuh?" Natasha didn't understand Scathach's question, she just wanted to know about her son-in-law!

"Answer my question."

"..." Natasha continued looking at Scathach for a few seconds, then she replied:

"I'll take it back in the future..."

"Hmm." She made a confirming sound, she seemed to be thinking of something.

"Satisfied? Now, where is my son-in-law?" Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, she saw Victor's performance in the arena, and the way he used her Clan's lightning power, the way he dominated his opponent, made her very curious! Not to mention that man has the powers of the three clans!

'Why did my beloved daughter hide him from me?' Natasha asked herself.

She totally forgot about Tatsuya, her sister's son.

"That's something I want to know too... Who would have thought that boy would become that..." Agnes' eyes were similar to Natasha's, and they were sparkling with curiosity.

Initially, she had no interest in Violet's new 'toy', but seeing this man in action… totally stunned her! A vampire who can use all three powers! And perfectly! Her curiosity was running wild, she wanted to know more about him!

"..." Scathach rests her head in her hand and looks at the two women with a bored face.

"…I'm feeling this is going to end badly…." Adonis muttered.

William, who heard the words of Adonis internally, began to prepare himself to flee at any time from this place as quickly as possible. He didn't want to be caught in the crossfire of these crazy women!

Even though one of these crazy women was his wife, he didn't want to get in the middle of a possible fight between these women. Although he is sure that in the end, Scathach would win the fight.

It's not that he doesn't trust his wife… It's just that he can't imagine Scathach losing a fight; that woman is just on another level.
