Chapter 470: Bonds Forged in the Past.
In the underground room, a woman with long red hair, wearing casual clothes, was sitting with her legs crossed.
She had a curvy body, large breasts that could be seen even by the sweatshirt-type clothes she was wearing, thick legs that could be seen by the jeans she was wearing.
She had her hair tied back in a ponytail, she had white sweatpants on her side of the couch. Evidently, she was in her lab when she received the message that the guests were waiting for her.
Knowing who it was, the woman promptly invited everyone to enter the basement.
She just felt comfortable having that kind of conversation in this controlled environment, she knows that nothing would escape these walls after the massive Upgrade that Victor did when a certain goddess entered this place without permission.
As paranoid about security as Victor was, he spared no effort to make this place even more like an impenetrable fortress.
Behind the woman was an oriental-looking Maid, she had black hair that was reaching her shoulders, a thin body, with breasts that seemed to fit easily in a person's hand.
Evidently, Maid has changed a lot both in body and height, since she started drinking her master's blood, she has become 'better' than she was before.
She had a neutral look on her face as she looked at the guests.
Beside the woman was a woman who seemed to be the perfect description of an older seductive woman, long black hair that reached the floor, violet eyes, curvy body, she had a smiling expression as she looked at the guests.
Her older woman charm was completely catching Andrew and Fred's attention.
And seeing that look, Roberta's gentle smile had turned a little colder, she could feel her counterpart's whispers demanding blood.
Talking about the guests.
They were made up of the Lykos family.
Adam William Lykos was the father, an Alpha werewolf who was also a former general in the army of the king of werewolves.
At his right side was his son, Edward Jonathan Lykos, and like his father, he was an Alpha werewolf, and childhood friend of Victor.
He was Victor's personal trainer, as in the past Victor suffered from an illness, he needed a professional follow-up to keep his physique healthy.
Alongside Edward was his younger sister Leona Elizabeth Lykos, as well as her father and brother, she was also an Alpha as well.
She is Victor's childhood friend, a woman who was closely related to the night Victor became a vampire.
They were a family of powerful Alphas, and coincidentally, Victor's childhood friends.
On the other couch was Andrew Walter, another childhood friend of Victor's who seemed to have a normal life, but recently, he found out that his mother was a former hunter.
It wasn't hard to discover this secret when Andrew unintentionally blurted out about his friend Victor becoming a vampire.
Now, if it was any normal person, they would have ignored this problem, but Andrew's mother was not willing to leave her son in danger.
Liene Walter didn't want a half-assed explanation, after forcing her son's explanation, she found out what happened to Victor, even saying that she had no dangers regarding Victor.
Liene didn't buy it, but she trusted her son, she trusted that Victor wasn't bad, she also knew the boy, but she needed to see it with her own eyes, fearing for her son's safety in case something went wrong, she made some plans. in case things got out of control, soon she went to visit Anna and ended up running into Adam along the way.
Despite acting surprised when she found out that Adam was a werewolf, internally she already knew this, she had investigated Adam before, and since he was a peaceful werewolf who just wanted peace, she didn't forbid her son to interact with them.
The fact that werewolves are not beings that are considered 'predators' of humans also mitigated this fact.
Unlike vampires, werewolves could eat normal food, and didn't need to drink blood.
At Liene's side was Frederick Winter, an Onmyo mage who didn't finish his training due to a certain woman defecting from the hunters.
For those close to you, you can call him Fred.
Fred was a Weeb, a higher level otaku, and a cultured individual, but above all, he was very smart, strangely intelligent, kind, and had potential that was recognized by Abe-No-Seimei himself.
On another couch were Anna and Aphrodite in the form of Renata.
No one questioned why Renata was here, everyone thought she already knew the secret and kept quiet about it.
Renata on the other hand was looking at everything with an interest in her eyes.
"I will apologize on behalf of my husband. He is currently doing something very important and is quite busy… But I already sent someone for him, he should be here at some point.
'...And to think that even this woman had a past like that...' Anna was too shocked to say anything right now, but she was handling it better, after all, nothing beats the shock of her closest friend being a literal goddess. .
'How will my husband react to this?' She asked herself in amusement, she wanted to see her husband's reaction who was at the gym now.
Since the events that he learned of the possible invasion of the demons, he decided to exercise and try to lose his beer belly.
Something Anna was very appreciative of.
"Before we begin, I suggest you hold your gaze, Andrew, Fred."
"…H-Huh?" The two were surprised that their names were suddenly called.
"All the female vampires here belong to my husband, and he can be…quite jealous. As his childhood friends, you must know what he is like, right?" Ruby's neutral smile made Andrew and Fred's spine shiver a little.
Ruby didn't specify the girls' relationship with Victor, but it wasn't a genius to know that she was talking about them having a lover relationship, it wasn't uncommon in the supernatural world for a noble vampire to have multiple lovers, especially if he was a Count Vampire.
Ruby didn't particularly want to explain her relationships to beings who are essentially strangers to her, just understand that the female vampires scattered around the house belong to her husband, period.
And it's also not like she was lying either, Ruby knew what kind of feelings Maids had for her husband, and her husband was quite possessive of Maids too, it was only a matter of time before Maids became something more than ordinary Maid. .
Because of her husband's personality that Ruby had a lot of talk about with Victor going around making new ones, she knew he wouldn't abandon girls, but it was also a problem if he had an army of Maids in his blood, and all of them. being your lovers.
He is not Solomon!
Because of that Victor said that he would limit the 'leader' Maids to only 8 members who represent the deadly sins, and these members would be leaders of a future squad of Maids that Victor was planning, of course this squad would not be a direct blood child. ' of Victor, and more like his descendant, after all, the main Maids he bit that would create those descendants.
Yes... He didn't give up on having an army of Maids under his command.
When Ruby asked Victor about his obsession, he said:
"... What? Bite me, it's every man's dream to have an army of Maids mighty
She swears she held back the urge to roll her eyes but couldn't, and in the end, she actually did, she bit him as she sat on his lap.
Victor flashed a small, confused smile, but didn't deny Ruby's advance.
'It was a metaphor, did you know? You didn't have to bite me, not that I was complaining.' Victor thought of fun.
"Victor there is no 8 deadly sins." She spoke as she enjoyed the sensation of Victor's caresses, and licked her neck, she was treating Victor's neck like yummy ice cream.
"Have you forgotten about the melancholy? Even though that pope of old took that sin off the church record, it still exists." Victor spoke as he thought about the past.
"...." Ruby had really forgotten about this forgotten cardinal sin.
Stopping thinking about the past, Ruby turns her attention to the present.
'Victor chose six Maids who were given the titles according to their first date, Eve was Wrath because when he found the girl her situation was just very furious, to this day Eve is furious about that incident, 18 years of abuse and exploitation it cannot be changed so quickly.'
Roberta was Envy, because the situation that Victor found her in, and the 'jealousy' that Roberta felt upon seeing her relationship with her wives was quite visible, she envied that relationship, and she wanted that relationship for herself...' Ruby thought in each of the Maids who had a peculiar situation that made Victor assign titles to them.
'I wonder who will be greed and melancholy.' Although it didn't seem like it, these thoughts only appeared for two seconds in Ruby's head.
"Yes, he has serious issues with being a Yandere." Edward spoke.
"... Indeed..." Leona commented dryly.
'I had already given up on that when he became a vampire, I knew I couldn't be with him anymore, and that certainty was cemented when he introduced his wives, but why do I feel so angry?'
'Oya?' Renata displayed a small smile when she saw Leona's bad mood, she felt her Love deity at work, and she could clearly 'see' Leona's love.
Naive love, a childish love, a love that has been nurtured since childhood.
But a love that never went forward because of the promise of 'siblings', and because the target of her love became something else, something she couldn't be with or even have a family with without serious consequences.
gulp.
Andrew and Fred gulped, how could they not know Victor? They knew their friend very well, even if they didn't kill him, he would definitely make him suffer.
Tearing up a certain 'collection' of Fred.
And telling several Milf Andrew has slept with in the past his whereabouts, it is worth saying that the thirsty women would destroy the boy in various ways, most of them being in bed, he would literally be milked like a cow by the thirsty women.
His friend was definitely capable of these atrocities.
"Fufufu, my master doesn't need to do anything, I would have dealt with those who look at me with those disgusting eyes myself." For a few seconds Roberta's hair seemed to float around, but she quickly behaved herself when she felt Kaguya's cold gaze.
"Don't overdo it, they might look like that, but that's very normal being young adults, and that look is very different from perverted ones."
"Fufufu, I know, but I don't like it, you know~? The only one who can look at me like that is my master~"
"Behave yourself." Kaguya narrowed her eyes this time more serious, for some her eyes were completely black and devoid of life.
"Yes, Yes~." Roberta rolled her eyes, but she didn't say anything else, she knew when to back off, especially when the Chief Maid gave her that creepy look.
She doesn't know when, but she thinks that since Kaguya started receiving Victor's affections and sleeping with him, she started to change and become something scary.
Something very similar to Victor's wives.
Cough.
Ruby coughed a little to get the group's attention:
"Forgive the Maids, they are very...dedicated to their work."
"...." The people around them rolled their eyes except for Adam and Liena the oldest in the room who were looking at everything with a neutral and appraising gaze.
"... I know you from somewhere...?" Lina asked cautiously, looking at Ruby, she was having little flashbacks to the past.
"Ara? No wonder you're recognizing me from somewhere, you're probably confusing me with my mother, after all, people say I'm a carbon copy of her." Ruby spoke with a kind smile.
"...I'm sorry, but... What's your name?"
"Ruby Scarlett, heir to Clan Scarlett, and daughter of the strongest female vampire, Scathach Scarlett."
"...." Liena looked at Ruby with a look of shock and she swears she can hear Scathach's high-pitched laugh.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA~, What!? My little Hunter, you can still fight, right? RIGHT!? Now, take your weapon, and fight! Fight! Let's have fun!"
Her gaze became lifeless for a few seconds as she remembered that traumatic experience, she just wanted to run away from that woman and ended up showing her trump card, but who would have thought that the woman would become more obsessed with her after learning of her trump card?
"......." Liena quickly shakes her head several times to get that memory out of her head.
"I assume you came here to discuss the demon invasion relationship, right?"
"Correct." Adam was the one who took the initiative this time.
"Eh...?" Liena looked at her son Andrew.
"Hahahaha~, I forgot about that." He put his hand on his head as he scratched, no one can blame him, after all, he was quite shocked when he learned that his mother was a former hunter.
'How can you forget something like that, you stupid son!?'
"I want to know Victor's plans regarding this issue."
"Oh...? Why do you want to know?" Ruby asked, always keeping her tone neutral.
"To make a decision." Adam lied, he had already made the decision to return to the werewolf realm, it was the safest place for his children... If you ignore the dispute that is taking place in the shadows over the succession to the werewolf king's throne.
A dispute that was taking the lives of its own people.
He came here to satisfy his children, and out of curiosity too.
"We don't want to stay in this place when the shit hits the fan." Edward continued.
"We think Victor might have a plan on this."
"Oh? You seem to have a lot of trust in my husband."
"I know how he thinks, I know he won't stand by when something that could possibly threaten his family is on his doorstep."
"...." Anna, Leona, Renata, the Maids and Ruby herself smiled at this.
"...You're not wrong."
The moment she said that, time around Ruby seemed to slow down a lot.
That was just Ruby's perspective, something similar to Victor, something Ruby can achieve because of the speed of processing her thoughts.
'Now, what i do?'
.......
