Chapter 489: Training with the Goddess of Beauty.
Victor was standing in the shower as the literal Goddess of Beauty acted like a Maid and washed every corner of his body.
"Hmm... I've always been curious, what does a Goddess taste like?" He looked at Aphrodite's neck.
"..." Aphrodite stopped washing his member, which was the part of the body she unconsciously paid the most attention to, and spoke:
"If you drink my blood, you will die." She brushed her pink hair that was wet from the shower from her face and tossed it up.
"...Oh?"
"Look." Instead of explaining, she decided to show.
She took her finger and put it in her mouth, then she bit it hard, injuring her finger and showing her blood to Victor.
"Golden..."
"Our blood has the essence of a God, something that is very harmful to a Creature of The Night."
"... Hmm..."
"Too bad... I wanted to know your taste."
"...." Aphrodite looked deeply into Victor's eyes and even stopped stroking his member, which was already cleaner than most of Victor's body parts.
"Do you really want to know what my blood tastes like?"
"Yes."
"Then become a God."
"…Eh?"
"If you become a God of any kind, you will gain natural resistance to the Divine Element."
"That way, you'll get to know what my blood tastes like."
"...Becoming a God is difficult, an almost impossible task."
"Indeed." Aphrodite didn't deny it.
"And I don't want to lose my Progenitor status." Victor instinctively felt that being a Progenitor was something better than being an ordinary God.
"Fool, once your soul changed into its Progenitor form, regardless of what species you are or become, you will still be a Progenitor."
"The only difference is, you will no longer be a Progenitor Vampire, but a Progenitor God who represents the Vampire aspect."
"Something similar to your daughter Nero that, despite being a Noble Vampire, she still uses Werewolf-like techniques."
"A Vampire God, to put it simply." Victor spoke.
"Hmm, you're not wrong, but you're not right at the same time."
"Ugh… Gods and their complicated existences." He spoke in disdain.
"Fufufufu, a God is something different from common species."
"We exist on a higher plane of existence, we who keep reality going." Aphrodite turned off the shower,
"Without a God to represent a concept in any Pantheon, that concept will cease to work in reality."
"..." Victor felt that he understood, and at the same time, he didn't.
"For example, I will use myself to explain." Aphrodite lathered with her hand and poured the soap from the container.
Victor looked at the soap and took it too, making foam with his hand too.
Aphrodite took Victor's rock-hard member and started washing him again...
Victor did the opposite and took both of Aphrodite's breasts and started washing them.
"...." Aphrodite looked up in amusement at this scene and said nothing.
"I am a Second-Generation Goddess of Olympus, I am a Titan, and I represent Beauty, Love, Sex, etc. You already know."
"Mmm." Victor nodded as he stopped soaping Aphrodite's breasts and started cleaning her waist and her ass.
Aphrodite bit her lip lightly and stopped her moan from coming out.
"Concepts are fundamental aspects of the Universe. When you become a God, you become the representative of those aspects in reality."
"And if the Gods that represent that Aspect of Reality disappear along with all the other Gods related to that concept, the concept will stop working in reality."
"For example, Love. If you kill all the Goddesses of Love, 'love' will cease to exist in reality. No one could love until another God of that Divinity is born again."
"Oh." Now Victor understood: "That seems like something difficult to achieve."
"Indeed, you would have to fight multiple Pantheons, after all."
'Not to mention that the beings responsible for the functioning of the Universe would not let that happen.' Aphrodite couldn't help but think about those beings of great power who were neutral towards everything and only cared about the continuation of existence.
"There is a hierarchy in the concepts too."
"For example, Freya."
"She is a Goddess with similar concepts as me, as she is also a Goddess of Beauty."
"But her connection to the Concept of Beauty is lesser than mine."
"Therefore, she is of a lower rank than me, at least in the Beauty Divinity department."
"Can it increase in the future? I mean, her influence on the Concept of Beauty?" Victor asked.
"Yes, but for that, she needs a deeper understanding of what 'beauty' is."
"Something that is extremely difficult."
"I see..." Victor lifted Aphrodite's leg and washed the important part of her that had a small pink tuft of hair.
Aphrodite stopped cleaning Victor and leaned on his body as she put her hand over her mouth.
"Haah…Haaah." Breathing heavily in his ear, she returned to her explanation:
"The moment you become a God, you will be reborn and awaken with the most prominent attribute of your Soul. As the Concept of 'Progenitor' and 'Vampire' are the strongest, you will have Greater Divinity in them."
"How you love the fight, to challenge, and having characteristics of obsessive love and protectiveness will also factor in."
"You could also awaken fighting Concepts like 'War,' 'Combat,' etc.
"Because of your obsessive love, you could awaken Concepts of 'Love' just like me."
"Because of your protective nature towards your family and those close to you, you could awaken Divinities related to Family, and Home, just like Hestia… Ugh."
Aphrodite put her hand over her mouth and stopped herself from moaning as Victor cleaned around her entrance.
"This is quite an interesting topic..." Victor spoke honestly as he cleaned up Aphrodite.
"Is it completely certain that if I become a God, I will become a Progenitor God of Vampires?"
"Basically, yes."
"After all, that is the biggest feature that stands out when I review your profile."
"The other Divinities all depend on Luck and Fate, I think."
"Fate exists?"
"Yeah, and she's a bitch." Aphrodite couldn't help but say.
"..." Victor just looked at Aphrodite in disbelief.
"Hey, don't look at me like that. All existing Pantheons have Gods related to Fate. It's not something new. Although they cannot interfere with 'Fate'. There is someone greater who has been in that Concept for years and protects it from everyone."
"Oh...? Can you stop Gods from manipulating 'Concepts'?" Victor went back to washing Aphrodite's perfect body.
"Of course, for example, myself. As the most influential in the Concept of Beauty and Love, I can prevent other Gods from progressing in these Concepts." Aphrodite wrapped her arms around Victor's neck.
"..." Victor slapped Aphrodite's voluptuous ass lightly.
"Mmm~."
"You're preventing Freya from progressing in the Concept of Beauty, right?" He spoke in her ear.
"Fufufufu, I knew you would find out." She laughed.
"I am the most beautiful woman in existence, and I will not give that title to anyone, not even Freya."
"Petty."
"Humpf, all women are like that."
"...." Victor didn't comment on this since he agreed a little with Aphrodite. All women had things they wanted to be petty about, and this could also be called their pride.
Victor pulled Aphrodite closer to him, and he felt his hard cock resting against Aphrodite's wet entrance as he started cleaning Aphrodite's back, the back of her neck, and her butt.
Aphrodite squirmed in Victor's arms. Even though they were not doing anything much and were just washing each other, she was very aroused right now.
And his hard cock being kissed by her bottom lips didn't do much to reduce his hard-on either.
"Even though I commented on this lightly, thanks for the explanation. It seems like being a God is more than just acting like a kid."
"Humpf, I don't deny that most Gods are idiots or kids with superpowers."
"But if there were no responsible Gods, the world would be in Chaos right now."
"After all, the Greater Gods that encompass Grand Concepts like Destiny, Time, Infinity, Reality, Earth, etc., Concepts important to keep everything in balance, are the ones that keep the Universe going."
"If they were all like Zeus, the world would be fucked. Literally speaking."
This was one of the few lessons she learned on her trip around the world. She was so trapped in her 'bubble' called Olympus that she could barely see what kind of reality she was living in.
"I see, I see~."
"I'm glad not all Gods are like Zeus."
"Mm." She nodded her head in agreement with him.
She hugged Victor tighter, and soon she felt the cold water running down her body and taking all the soap off of her body.
Even though the water was cold, she couldn't turn down the heat that was on her little sister.
She could clearly feel her entrance opening and closing lasciviously as if begging him to let her completely swallow the thick cock inside her.
'Ahh~, that smell, I love that smell.'
Victor wasn't doing much better. It would be hypocritical of him to say he didn't find the woman attractive, especially the sweet way she was acting now.
This woman was certainly dangerous, and his hard member was more than enough proof of that.
The scent of her arousal, her perfect body, and putting it all together with the way she was acting, was a dangerous combination.
... But, it still wasn't enough for him to act like a rutting animal like he did when he was 'fighting' Scathach.
There was still something quite fundamental for Victor to be interested in Aphrodite.
Yes, the Goddess was beautiful. She was not called the most beautiful woman for nothing, but...
Remembering Scathach and her eyes when they were fighting.
'Scathach is better.'
Soon the memories of his Wives giving him the same look flooded his mind.
'Ruby, Violet, Sasha, and Natashia are better.'
He thought to himself, but it wasn't something he would verbalize. It would be disrespectful to the woman who kindly explained something to him and was always helping him and keeping his mother safe.
With several thoughts running through the minds of a Divinely Beautiful Mortal and a Goddess with a look that was on the same level as the mortal, the two continued to embrace, trying as hard as they could to lower the fire that was building between them.
"...You used my Blessing again."
"When did that happen?"
"When I told you you weren't handsome enough."
"...."
"Why does it only activate at these times?"
"Narcissism."
"..." Victor was speechless.
"Something common to everyone who has the Concept of Beauty in their bodies."
"Vic." Aphrodite stopped hugging Victor and looked at him seriously.
Victor looked at the Goddess in his arms.
"You have to control it."
"You don't want to make someone your slave without knowing it, right? Especially if the target is one of your Wives."
"..." Victor narrowed his eyes.
"No, I don't want that." To Victor, his Wives shone brightest when they were themselves. Strong, independent women.
Aphrodite nodded.
"I can teach you."
"...Okay, teach me."
"...." Aphrodite looked shocked at Victor. Honestly, she thought he was going to doubt her or something.
"Please don't look at me like that. Despite the way we started, I won't be a hypocrite and deny the help you're giving my family and me."
"..." Aphrodite couldn't help but smile gently when she heard what Victor said.
She remembered Anna's words.
"My son is a very easygoing individual. He returns kindness with kindness and returns threats with threats. Just treat him like you treat me, and before you know it, he'll be trusting you." She spoke with a sincere look at Aphrodite.
'It's like Anna said... If I had really acted normally during our first meeting, I wouldn't have had to go through all that pointless trouble...' When she thought of her first meeting with Victor, she shook her head, denying her thoughts.
'It would not help. Victor was looking at me with his prejudices and views of other people. Even if I had acted normal, he would have been suspicious.' In the end, Aphrodite thought that everything that had happened, happened the way it did since only then could she be in this situation right now.
The smile Aphrodite flashed caught Victor a little off guard, and pairing that smile with her bath-soaked body, he wasn't going to lie and say he didn't feel a thing.
'Goddess of Beauty, huh...'
"Thank you for your trust, Vic. I promise I will try not to break it."
"Oh? I'm not feeling confident in those words."
"Well, I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't break that trust."
Victor narrowed his eyes at this.
"After all, if I ever came across a situation where I had to betray your trust to help you and Anna, I would do it without thinking." Aphrodite explained.
"..." Victor's eyes softened a little:
"Before that happens, try looking for help. I'll always be here."
"Mm... I'll leave it as a last resort then."
"Haah," Victor sighed and casually commented:
"And there you go raising the flag. Do you want Murphy to be here?"
"Fufufu, this is just the reality of things."
"Vic, there's a lot of unbelievable stuff going around."
"For example, I know a Goddess that, if she spoke without holding back, she could destroy everything in a straight line. Nothing would be left to exist, not even Souls."
"...That sounds like a dangerous Goddess, I would like to meet her."
"Believe it or not, she is very kind."
"Oh, and she's in our chat group."
"…Kali?"
"Umu." She nodded.
"Try to befriend her later. It will be beneficial in the future."
"Hmm, I won't do it because it's beneficial, but because she sounds interesting but sure."
"Fufufu, I know."
'And that's something I like about you~' She thought to herself with embarrassment.
"Anyway, let's train." Aphrodite hugged Victor again as she adjusted her position a little so his cock fit perfectly in between her thick thighs and at the entrance to her most important place.
She lifted her face up and spoke.
"Hug me."
Victor hugged Aphrodite.
"Hmm... A little stronger."
He hugged her tighter.
"Good." She smiled, satisfied.
"Look into my eyes."
"..." Victor did as she said and looked into her eyes.
"I will force you to use my Blessing, and I will use my body to stop your Charm from leaving this shower. That's why I'm hugging you like this."
"Oh? Does that mean you didn't do it as an excuse?"
"Humpf, do you think I would use such a petty trick? Weren't we already hugging before?"
"..." Victor thought that made a lot of sense.
Aphrodite sighed inwardly when she managed to get Victor's attention away. She would never say she did it for the reasons Victor talked about.
"I'll start, okay?"
"Mm." Victor nodded his head.
"3... 2... 1... Now." Aphrodite's eyes slowly began to glow neon pink.
Victor was transfixed for a few seconds, and as he looked at Aphrodite, his eyes also started to change to neon pink.
His long dark hair grew to his waist, and unlike Aphrodite's pink hair, Victor's hair was more shades of black, but it wasn't a dark black like his Progenitor form.
It was more like a silky black like the night itself. His appearance began to become more striking, and a Divine 'Charm' began to emanate from his body.
Seeing Victor's current appearance, Aphrodite can't help but utter internally.
'As expected of the man I chose, he is definitely the most handsome man.' Her cheeks flushed a little as she noticed her own thoughts.
But quickly, she kept her poker face and said:
"Vic?"
"Y-Yes."
"Control yourself. Feel my Blessing, and control it as your own."
"Hmm..." Victor was a quick learner, and his experience with control was quite vast, considering that, from the beginning, control was the aspect he'd trained the most in his life.
He was, after all, a walking atomic bomb.
