Chapter 854: Somebody I Used to Know
Samar, the private bath of The Palace.
Victor leaned against the edge of the bath, gazing at the ceiling, lost in thought as he reviewed the brief fight he had with Fenrir.
"I feel like I'm close to discovering something..." Victor narrowed his eyes. The fight with Fenrir had been quite enlightening.
He couldn't tell if it was because he had witnessed the "Concepts" being deleted and reconstructed or if it was Fenrir's Evolution, but he had a nagging feeling that he had stumbled upon something significant, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
This sensation was incredibly frustrating, akin to having information on the tip of your tongue that you couldn't recall or a missing puzzle piece that prevented a complete picture.
"What are you thinking about, Vic?" Scathach's voice broke through his thoughts, coming from his left.
The water rippled, indicating her entry into the bath, but even that didn't divert Victor's attention from the ceiling.
Lost in thought, Victor responded openly, "I'm thinking about my progress."
"Hmm..." The water shifted again, and soon Victor felt Scathach climbing onto his lap.
Victor diverted his gaze from the ceiling to the crimson-haired goddess before him.
"You finally looked at me." She smiled, a smile that carried the seduction of an older woman and the danger of someone like Scathach.
Victor gazed into Scathach's heterochromatic eyes. "I'm always looking at you."
"Hmm... That's not how it seemed today. Not just that bitch but also The Queen of Wolves."
"Your attention seemed rather divided today." Her eyes gleamed with subtle threat, jealousy, and possessiveness evident in every word she spoke.
Instead of becoming alarmed, as most men might in this situation, Victor's smile grew wider, and he embraced Scathach.
He always relished it when his Wives displayed extreme jealousy and even greater possessiveness. For him, it was not a cause for concern but rather a source of joy.
"You know very well that that is not true. No matter how many women enter my life, you, Master, will always hold a significant place in my heart."
Scathach wasn't just the woman who trained him; she was the one who had completely shifted his mindset. He was the warrior he was today because she had "sculpted" him at the start of his journey.
An involuntary smile appeared on Scathach's face. "Humpf, you and your sweet words. You won't escape me so easily!"
"Who said I wanted to escape?" He chuckled, nuzzling his violet horns against Scathach's crimson ones.
As a Being who was the perfect fusion of a Dragon and a Vampire, he could easily change his form to hide his "Draconic Features." Features like his eyes, his horns, his slightly scaly skin, and his razor-sharp claws, which were more like talons. He could conceal these and appear as a Human whenever necessary, much like his retractable Draconic Wings.
But why should he? He felt no shame in his current Form, so he didn't hide in his "original" Human Form.
Scathach seemed to share the sentiment. Like him, she proudly displayed her horns, eyes, and other characteristics. It appeared that they were embracing their true selves, and the same applied to the other women he had turned into Dragons. When their two sets of horns touched, they unexpectedly felt a resonance between them, as if they had "merged."
In that moment, Scathach felt Victor's entire Being as if she were in control of his body.
"This... This is how you feel, huh?"
Scathach opened her eyes wide. "So much Power... So much Energy... It's just... Incredible..."
Scathach couldn't find the words to explain her feelings or put them into perspective. If her current body were likened to all the oceans of planet Earth, Victor's Energy was akin to having an entire colossal planet several hundred times the size of Earth at her disposal.
It was simply unfathomable.
"No wonder you never seem to get tired... With this much Energy, it's almost impossible for you to become fatigued now." She marveled.
He not only possessed a nuclear reactor at his heart that generated immense Energy but also had Roxanne and his own planet both contributing to his Power.
Scathach was convinced that, among the God-Kings, Victor surpassed them all in terms of pure Energy. She wouldn't be surprised if he had the most available Energy to wield.
While Scathach was lost in the abyss that was Victor's existence, attempting to understand him better, Victor smiled deeply when he sensed Scathach's emotions toward him-her devotion, love, lust, and obsession.
Victor had been aware of these feelings, as Scathach had demonstrated them on multiple occasions. However, "feeling" them directly from the source was an entirely different experience than having them "shown."
Scathach took a deep breath and pressed her body closer to Victor's. "No wonder you're always so contemplative. Your body has changed completely. It must be quite challenging to regain full control, isn't it?"
"Yes, but I've had a previous experience, so it's easier this time. The fight I had with Fenrir also helped me get a better grip on my body." Victor hadn't been joking when he mentioned understanding Superman. With his current strength, the world was essentially made of glass-a fragile world. The only ones he could touch freely without much worry were his Dragon Wives, who naturally had more resilient bodies than most.
"I can understand that. I'm going through the same thing... To be honest, controlling my impulses is quite challenging. It's as if my emotions are on steroids and are out of control." She explained.
"The Draconic nature driven by the Vampiric nature."
"Right, we're a perfect fusion of Dragon and Vampire, huh." She spoke.
"That means we have all the weaknesses and strengths of both Races amplified."
"Really? I don't feel any adverse effects from sunlight."
"That's because the Dragon side doesn't have that weakness," Victor explained.
"The fusion of the Races eliminated most of the weaknesses that Vampires had because the Dragon was a superior 'material'."
"Hmm, that's a bit confusing."
"Think of it this way: during the fusion, the Dragon was at the front of the line, and the Vampire was second. As a result, we inherited a few weaknesses from both sides due to the
'superiority' of the Dragon."
"Mm... In that case, what weaknesses do we have now?"
"The only glaring weakness we have now is Anti-Dragon Weapons... something I'm already planning to address."
"Only a fool wouldn't seek countermeasures for a weakness they're aware of." Scathach nodded as she spoke the words of her own teachings.
"Indeed, and you've taught me well not to be a fool."
"Mm~." Scathach nodded with a satisfied smile on her face. She loved it when he spoke about how she had "taught" him various things.
Due to their current position and the resonance between them, she could clearly sense that he meant everything he said; he was being completely honest. She relished the overwhelming feelings of his love, affection, and possessiveness.
"As for your problem, Vic... Are you overthinking the future and forgetting the present?"
"What do you mean?"
"The basics, Victor. Always remember the basics. They are the pillars that support our existence."
"When in doubt, go back to the basics. Remember these words?"
Victor nodded and thought, "Basics, huh..." He pondered Scathach's words deeply and what she was suggesting to him. She wouldn't speak these words without reason, considering that she was someone who had experienced "Enlightenment" before.
In the meantime, as he contemplated, Scathach took a deep breath and exhaled warm air from her mouth. She tilted her hips slightly, and in the next moment, she released the Dragonling she had been sitting on, practically impaling herself in place on Victor.
"Haah... I love it." She spoke with satisfaction when she felt the Junior Dragon go all the way and completely invade her cave and take the place for himself like the arrogant Dragon he was.
Victor's smile grew even wider when she was honest. No matter how much he 'defeated' her before, she would never admit her honest feelings. She was a pure warrior even in bed.
She proved her 'love' with actions, not words.
But thanks to her new honest side, she was being much more vocal, something that made Victor even more excited, as she was finally being completely honest!
"Humpf, that little smile, I can feel your ego growing, my love."
Her last words made his smile grow even wider, and an overwhelming feeling of happiness gushed towards her:
"I'm just happy, Honey."
She showed a small, loving, and gentle smile. "I know." Soon after, she kissed him.
Victor wrapped his arms around her tighter and kissed her, too, but he had to stop the kiss halfway through when he felt an incredible sensation coming from below.
"W-What is that?"
Victor felt as if his younger Dragon was being squeezed and attacked from every direction, as the slick membrane was squeezing him and massaging his weak spots. The tightness was incredible, and if he wasn't who he was, he was sure his younger brother would have already been crushed.
"Humpf, do you think I wouldn't level the playing field at some point?" She huffed as she let out a small moan as she felt her insides being filled with Victor's liquid.
'Fufufu, I caught him off guard.' She thought internally.
"Aphrodite and Morgana explained to me several techniques they use while they are battling you. I also observed a lot when you were battling."
"So all I had to do was adapt their fighting style to my own fighting style..."
"Get ready, My Love. I will take you to heaven." Her eyes lit up, then she began to use her techniques while sounds of splashing water echoed around the bathing chamber.
Victor was lost in thought. One was the literal Goddess of Sex and Love, and the other woman was a Succubus, a Demon of Lust; whatever Scathach learned from them, he was loving it. 'This feeling, it's like Aphrodite and Jeanne are doing it to me at the same time... It's incredible!'
As expected of his Master, she would never stay behind for long.
But... It still wasn't enough. She may have caught him off guard with a sneak attack, but he was still the man who defeated Aphrodite several times, along with Morgana, the 'teachers' of Scathach.
Victor's teeth became sharper, and in the next moment, he bit Scathach's neck.
"Ohhhh...- OHHHH!~" Scathach's eyes rolled back completely at the unexpected thunderous pleasure. She had an orgasm so intense that all the liquid inside her exploded with force, expelling the water around the bathtub.
Just as Victor had a super body, she also had a super body and an involuntary reaction with such strength was normal.
But Scathach didn't think about that. She was more worried that, at this moment, her entire body had become a sensitive erogenous zone, and she was going crazy with pleasure.
She came for a long minute and proved once again the happiness of being a 'woman' who could experience a prolonged orgasm.
Honestly, she didn't mind at all about giving up now and enjoying it all...
But she wouldn't give up so easily! She wouldn't be Scathach if she gave up so quickly!
Scathach growled, opened her mouth, and bit Victor's neck.
For a moment, she felt as if she was biting into a very resistant metal, which made her teeth hurt a lot, but she managed to pierce his skin.
Truthfully, this was only possible thanks to Victor's cooperation in making his 'flesh' softer for her.
A body control that he managed to regain thanks to the small fight with Fenrir. Hiding his characteristics was easy, and changing his shape was also very easy, but he couldn't lower his natural defenses without great effort.
Even if he changed his appearance and became a 12-year-old boy, his whole body would be as strong as his adult form, and nothing would change.
But thanks to that fight, he began to regain 'delicate' control of his body. If it weren't for that, Scathach would have broken her teeth when she bit him.
'So delicious!!!' Scathach groaned internally. Even though she no longer needed blood as a Dragon and could eat normal food, she was still a Vampire in essence. After all, she grew up as a Vampire, so even if natural foods were good, nothing beat her Husband's blood.
"Ahh~." She stopped biting and moaned when she felt a squeeze on her buttocks and a nibble on her ear.
.....
Metis, who was outside preparing to enter the bathroom, suddenly stopped when she heard what was happening.
"Have they started already...?" She touched her chin and deliberated. For a moment, the thought of joining them crossed her mind, but she immediately shook her head in denial.
'I won't disturb him... Maybe when he's alone, it will be better.'
Metis knew it was only a matter of time for her to form a relationship with her father. After all, she couldn't think of a man more suitable than him to spend her entire existence with, not to mention that she understood her position very well.
She understood that no matter what she tried to do, she would never be able to get away from him. She had already seen his possessiveness and knew that it would be impossible to
escape.
She also didn't want to escape. Her father saved her and gave her a new life, and the right thing to do was to stay by his side and always support him.
'...STOP CALLING HIM FATHER, METIS!' She internally roared to herself in shame as she realized her own thoughts.
She squatted on the ground and covered her face with her hands. An older woman like her calling someone so young father; it seemed like she had a twisted desire or something! Due to her shame, unconsciously, her Dragon Wings appeared, and she covered her body, forming a kind of protective shell. Metis looked at this and tried to consciously control the wings to retract onto her back, but she couldn't.
"...I can't make them disappear." She wondered how this was possible. After all, from what she understood about herself,
Dragons were Beings that acted on instinct-...
Her thought process stopped when she felt something coming out of her private parts; she looked at that place and realized what it was.
'Impossible-.' She didn't even have time to reason again because she heard:.
"Haan~, more... Haah~"
Her wings opened again, and her eyes shone with desire as she took a deep breath and smelled her father.
She spied what was going on and saw her father, who, just like her, had his wings exposed and was doing things that couldn't be said out loud with Scathach, who had her wings open too. It was obvious that, just like her, they weren't managing to control themselves and were assuming their True Form unintentionally.
Her eyes stared at that member, and this image was reflected in her eyes.
'I want him for myself... I...!'
-Slap!
Metis hit herself and woke up to reality, as she quickly created clothes for herself and left the bathroom as quickly as possible.
With speed that would shame most of the Fulger Clan, she flew towards the icy sea on the other side of the planet city and fell into the frigid waters.
Floating on the bottom of the sea while looking at crystal clear water, she internally roared:
'Damn, Draconic Instincts! I hate it!... I want my dad to fuck me!'
Her face turned red, and then she screamed, releasing a roar of pure golden Power towards the sky.
"Holy... That was my breath!? Incredible!"
The moment she got out of the water, she smelled 'that scent' again, and that made her return to the water quickly.
'Damn!' She was cursing her heightened senses now.
