Pushing those thoughts aside, Victor looked around.
Roberta, Maria, Natashia, Morgana, Bruna, and Agnes quickly ford a small group and started talking to each other.
Victor didn't know what to think of this group; after all, the won in this group were quite 'sadistic'. He felt he'd brought together a group of won who shouldn't have been
together...
'Only Violet, Leona, Scathach, and my Generals are missing to complete this group of sadists.'
Victor could only pity the enemy who provoked these won.
'Well, it's good they're getting along.' He smiled and then looked at another group.
Hestia joined Kaguya, Victoria, Jeanne, Eve, and Roxanne.
This was a more 'serious' and gentler group of won, although these types were the most dangerous when provoked. An excellent example was Kaguya herself, who could beco a killing machine for Victor's sake.
Victor rembered when Kaguya had used that Form of Darkness to kill several enemies in the past.
'In this group, I think only Sasha, Natalia, Mizuki, Lacus, Siena, Pepper, and Haruna are missing. They are the most balanced in the group...'
As he watched the girls, he realized sothing else. Aphrodite didn't have a group. As a social queen bee, she communicated with everyone and got along with every topic presented.
'Well, as expected of Aphrodite, I guess?' He smiled.
Another thing he noticed was that... He had too many Wives.
If you counted the won he had an official relationship with, they included the Maids he created, including Roxanne, mbers of the Snow, Fulger, Scarlett, and Adrastella Clans, along with Haruna, Leona, Mizuki, and Aphrodite... So in total, there were 25 won!
He also hadn't included the Zaladrac and the Demonic won. So, if you added them to the count, the number rose to... 31!
'Holy fuck... The author's probably having a hard ti managing all this and developing the girls. I must control myself...' Victor thought he should learn so restraint. 4
'Hmm? What was that sudden thought?' Victor scratched his head in confusion. After thinking about it for a bit, he put it aside.
He didn't know the aning of restraint anyway.
'I will do what I want when I want! Hahahaha~!'
While Victor was thinking like a drugged man who wasn't quite right in the head, he heard the door open again.
This ti the younger won, his Mother, Mizuki, and Zaladrac, ca.
"...." Looking at this group with a blank expression, he thought.
'Yes, maybe I should learn restraint... After I turn Hestia into a Yandere, of course.'
...For God's sake...
...
So hours later.
Victor looked at Hestia curiously.
With the Blessing of Love, he could feel Hestia's intense feelings toward him. Of course, it wasn't love yet. But it could develop into sothing like that; after all, what Hestia wanted right now was a Ho she could call her own.
And to be honest, Victor had a soft spot for this Goddess. He didn't know why, but every ti he was around her, he felt as though he'd arrived ho after a long journey.
'I guess she gives off that feeling because she's the Goddess of The Ho?' Victor asked himself.
"Hmm?" Hestia stopped watching the movie and looked towards the gaze she was feeling.
When she saw it was Victor, she raised her eyebrow as if asking what the problem was.
Victor just smiled gently and shook his head back and forth, indicating it was nothing.
Hestia nodded gently and went back to watching the movie.
Victor stared at Hestia's red hair, which was bright as red flas for a while, and then he nodded, making a decision for himself.
'Let's leave it to ti.' His current relationships were developed naturally, and he planned to keep it that way. Rushing things would never work, especially in a relationship like this.
"Lady Ruby, should we really be watching a Fantasy genre?" "I an, when you finish the Star Wars Trilogy, a Sci-fi genre, the next step is Fantasy, right?"
"... I would really like to know how your brain works to think that way."
"Wha- Are you calling dumb, Luna!?"
"Of course not, Lady Ruby. I would never dare say that." Luna flashed a bright smile.
"You're definitely thinking about it!" Ruby snapped.
"Yes, she is thinking about it." Pepper was supportive: "She has that face that says, 'What dumb creature is this?"" She perfectly mimicked the look of disgust that Scathach gave when she saw a weak enemy.
"I didn't make that face!" Luna squealed and added, "And your Scathach imitation is perfect!"
"HmmHum." Pepper snorted proudly, making her two mountains sway up and down: "Of course, I can imitate my Mother perfectly. I always saw her give that face when she saw a weak enemy!"
"Can you guys shut the fuck up!?" Violet and Agnes spoke at the sa ti: "We are trying to watch a movie here!"
"I'm sorry!" Luna and Pepper quickly spoke.
"Hmph." Ruby just snorted and turned away.
"..." Victor glanced at the Scarlett Clan interaction and raised an eyebrow when he saw Luna.
'I haven't seen her in a while...' Of all Victor's acquaintances, he knew very little about Luna; even her past was unknown to him.
'Well, I've had little contact with her.' Victor knew that Luna spent more ti actively helping the mbers of Clan Scarlett and even helped Scathach herself on so quests as well.
'Wait a minute... Does she help Scathach on missions?'
We're talking about Scathach here. Just like Victor, she didn't accept diocrity. She wouldn't keep soone who wasn't strong by her side.
Victor's violet eyes narrowed a little, and his eyes glowed violet.
When Victor's Draconian Eyes fell on Luna, what he saw left him astonished. The amount of Power in Luna's body shouldn't be possible for a 'Common Noble Vampire', not to ntion that she had complete control of her Power! There were no energy fluctuations in her body.
She was not necessarily hiding her Power. She was just so proficient at controlling it that if you didn't focus your senses on her, you'd never notice.
'So she's been a Hidden Boss all this ti! How have I never noticed this?' Victor had to admit that he was never particularly interested in Luna.
And since Scathach trusted Maid enough to allow her to remain so close to her daughters, Victor didn't really think much of the matter.
After all, he had complete confidence in Scathach's judgnt.
'Well, this doesn't change anything. As long as she protects the Scarlett Clan, I won't ddle...'
Victor nodded in satisfaction, but soon a thought flashed through him: 'She has as much power as a trained Adult Vampire...But what are her other capabilities...?' Victor's look of interest grew.
'Since she's from Clan Scarlett, she must train a lot, right?' Victor's interest started to grow. He wonders what would happen if he threw Luna to fight so Demonic Elites.
"!!!" Luna felt a chill on her back and looked from one side to the other, confused. For so reason, she felt that soone had arrived at a terrible misunderstanding that would cause her to suffer a lot in the future.
"What's the matter, Luna?" Siena asked when she saw Maid acting strange.
"It's nothing..." Luna replied with a forced smile.
"It's definitely not nothing, just say-." Before Siena could finish asking, a frustrated scream was heard.
"Gaaaaahhhhhh! That's enough! I can't take so much bullshit! Can we change the movie!?" Violet raised her hand.
All the girls' eyes went to her.
"Violet! The movie is only half done!" Sasha pointed.
"Who cares!? This lingering Fantasy is killing ! We spent the last 30 minutes just with dialogue! DIALOGUE! I want a fight scene! I want action! I want to see blood and guts flying across the screen!"
"Well, I can understand your feelings..." Eve said.
"Indeed, it's a little boring." Bruna nodded her head.
"Perhaps a little more blood and death is in order." Maria pointed out.
"...These won are so bloodthirsty." Jeanne sighed.
"It is our nature, Jeanne." Morgana laughed.
"I know, but... Not a good influence on children, right?"
"...." The group looked at Ophis and Nero, who were in Victor's lap.
"They are not normal children, and Ophis is my niece, so she is not weak," Haruna spoke with a smile.
"Nero isn't normal either." Ruby spoke as if she didn't want to lose to Haruna: "She can use weapons with absurd proficiency! She's killed a lot of people too!"
Haruna narrowed her eyes when she thought that Ophis didn't have any deaths to her na:
"...Perhaps, I should train Ophis too. If she is my sister's daughter, she must have Kitsune abilities...."
"..." Ophis and Nero looked at Haruna and Ruby with strange looks. What was this sudden competition between the two?
"Ignoring those two maniacs," Violet started to speak.
"Oyyy!" Haruna and Ruby scread at the sa ti.
"I suggest we switch to Ani," Violet spoke while holding the Blu-Rays of various Ani.
"AGREED!" Ruby, Pepper, Lacus, Luna, Eve, Maria, Leona, and, surprisingly, Siena imdiately agreed.
Ruby, Pepper, Lacus, and Leona quickly looked at Kaguya, Mizuki, and Haruna as if they were expecting sothing.
Their gazes practically scread: 'You're Japanese, right? Help us out here!'
"... Ugh... It's a product made in my country, so I'm a little interested... I think..." Mizuki comnted uncertainly. Actually, she wasn't that interested, but she felt that she should ntion it or so discussion would ensue.
"Although I'm descended from Japanese Noble Vampires, I grew up outside of Japan, so I can't say anything." Kaguya quickly removed her presence from the discussion.
Haruna then raised her hand, saying, "I don't know what Ani is."
"That is unacceptable!" Ruby yelled.
"How can a Kitsune not know what Ani is!" Leona scread in scandal.
"What does being a Kitsune have to do with not knowing Ani?" Haruna asked, genuinely confused.
"It's sacrilege that you don't know that," Lacus said.
"It's like committing an irredeemable sin," Pepper comnted.
"Ignorance is not always bliss." Ruby nodded.
"..." Haruna was simply speechless.
"Haah, just ignore my crazy sisters. You didn't make any mistakes, Haruna." Siena spoke.
"Oyy! How can you throw us under the bus like that!" Pepper spoke to her older sister.
"Shut up! You're bothering Haruna!" Siena hit Pepper on the head with a karate chop.
"Ughhh. Why are you defending her!?" Pepper comnted.
"I'm not defending her! I just told you not to impose your beliefs on her! After all, not everyone is obliged to know about Ani!" Siena was surprisingly mature.
"Why not!?" Pepper, Lacus, Ruby, and Leona asked at the sa ti.
"Ugh, this discussion will never end." Agnes put her hand to her head as if she had a severe headache.
Realizing that Agnes was right, Sasha looked at Victor and asked:
"What do you think, Vic?"
If anyone could end this discussion quickly, it was Victor.
The girls stopped talking and looked up at Victor sitting in a chair alone with just Ophis and Nero in his lap.
The reason he was alone?
It was to avoid confrontation.
If he sat down with the girls, the girls would imdiately go to his side and those who didn't make it would glare at the girls who did.
Of course, no conflict would arise due to the unity of the 'sisters', but it was best to prevent feelings like that from developing...
Well, that was not completely true... The biggest reason he was separated was that Victor wanted to spend ti with his daughters.
Victor looked around, feeling everyone's emotions with his Blessings, and realizing that everyone really didn't care much about the film change, he said:
"It's fine with . How about putting on that Ani of the Giants attacking? I never had the opportunity to watch it before."
"Ohhh! Good idea! I think it's a good start for those who aren't used to Ani." Ruby put the popcorn made with blood cubes on the side and got up from her chair. Soon she walked towards the projector that was showing the movie.
Pepper looked at Lacus: "Speaking of this Ani, why don't we kidnap the author and make him rewrite the ending of the manga?" She comnted sothing cruel quite easily.
"Let's respect the author's wishes with his own work. Although the ending is shitty, at least it's the ending he wanted... I think." Lacus comnted.
"Geh, I highly doubt that Ani, like the continuation of everyone's favorite orange ninja, was sothing the author wanted. Clearly, that was done to make money off the previous success." Pepper waved dismissively and spat on the ground with an expression of disgust:
"Greedy bastards."
"..." Scathach, seeing her daughter make a face much like hers when she was disgusted, actually wondered now if Pepper was her biological daughter or sothing.
'Hmm, I adopted her into my blood through the Ritual... So she's my daughter... But with the recent Ritual, she beca Victor's Wife, and now she has his blood in her body, so isn't she technically Victor's daughter...?'
Scathach got a headache when she thought about her relationship with her daughters, which got worse when she thought they would get pregnant in the future.
Would she be the grandmother or aunt of these children? She couldn't say.
"Done!" When Ruby said this, the opening imdiately started:
"Sasageyou, Sasageyou, Shinzou sasageyou" [Literal translation: Devote Your Heart.]
"Ohhh! That's a good song, no matter how often I hear it!" Leona spoke.
"Ugh, it's not bad... But aren't there too many instrunts? There's so much going on that it hurts my ears." Haruna grumbled. The kind of music she was used to was quite different, and seeing current music from her country gave her a disconcerting feeling. She felt like a samurai who had traveled 500 years into the future and couldn't adjust to the new 'culture'.
'Wait, isn't that a good premise for an Ani?'
"Ruby, skip the intro, or we'll get copyrighted!" Pepper scread.
"Never! I wouldn't dare commit such blasphemy!" Ruby snorted.
"Gahhh! At least skip it in the next episodes! Seeing it the first ti is enough!" Pepper spoke.
"...Hmm... Agreed!" Ruby accepted.
The room was utterly silent while everyone watched the Ani, although so comnts were heard during the marathon.
"God damn, that Mikasa has so nice abs. She's a warrior." Rose comnted as she nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm..." The female warriors in the group who hadn't watched the Ani imdiately started paying attention to that woman.
"She has a lot of talent... Is it because of her 'Lineage'?" Eleanor spoke.
"That also helped, but a powerful Bloodline without the right mindset is useless," Scathach said.
"Indeed, not to ntion that Lineage isn't everything. A strong ntality is essential."
"Hmm, hmm, I see Rose understands." Scathach nodded several tis.
"These soldiers' equipnt is quite interesting, but they are completely useless in the open field...." Maria analyzed.
"Not to ntion, the blades break easily." Roberta pointed. "But do they have spare blades?" Bruno spoke.
"That little blonde over there is a Badass, too, I want to see her and that other girl fight!" Agnes spoke.
"Hmm, you're right... That would be sothing interesting to see." Natashia nodded.
"Hmm, no comnt on the Protagonist?" Pepper asked cautiously.
"... Who cares about the Protagonist?" Haruna snorted.
"That brat is as dense as a black hole. How does he not notice the girl's feelings?" Mizuki comnted.
"Right? This is annoying. She clearly just cut her hair because he comnted on it. How did he not notice that? Is his brain rotten or sothing?" Maria nodded.
"..." The group that already knew Ani wondered what their reaction would be if they knew that most Ani protagonists were like that.
"Well, he's focused on his revenge against the Titans." Lacus defended.
"It's still not an excuse. That girl has the potential to be a Yandere. She must be developed," Victor pointed out stoically.
"The fact that the MC doesn't realize this is disappointing."
"..."
'What the hell is he talking about all of a sudden?' Everyone wondered.
"...Victor, not everyone has such twisted tastes like you..." Hestia pointed out gently, but unintentionally she critically damaged most of the girls in the room.
"To , it's like he has no taste at all." Victor snorted, "Well, I understand his motivation for wanting to get stronger and kill everyone; at least that's admirable..."
"With that mindset, I think he will beco sothing of a villain if a cruel revelation is shown in that 'basent'."
"..." Pepper, Lacus, Leona, and Ruby just looked at each other, conveying the sa ssage.
'If he only knew how right he was...'
Comnts like that ca and went throughout the Ani.
Victor couldn't help but smile at this sight. For him, watching the Ani wasn't that important. Seeing the girls getting along with each other was much more attractive to him.
"Father...?" Nero asked.
"Mhm?"
"I want to go stay with Ruby..."
"Oh? Are you going to trade your Father for your Mother?" Victor made a miserable face.
"T-That's not-." When Nero quickly tried to deny it, Victor smiled gently and spoke:
"Do not worry, I understand. You desire to talk about Ani with them, right?"
"Mhm..." She nodded as her face turned a little red from being teased by her Father.
"You can go, and if you want to co back later, just co back."
"Thanks!" Nero displayed a gentle smile and quickly ran towards Ruby.
Victor laughed a little when he saw Ruby's dumbfounded face.
'Ruby probably never thought that Nero would leave for her.' Victor thought.
Victor looked at Ophis and asked, "How about you?"
"Father, Mine." Ophis hugged Victor even tighter.
Victor smiled gently and patted Ophis on the head.
As Ophis lted from the caresses on her head, she sneered at Nero. How dare she trade her Father for so Mothers?
Mothers were countless, but Father is unique! Therefore Father is better!
Simple math, right?
Not to ntion that her Father slled better too... He was also kinder... His caresses were better... He spoiled her...
Why should she leave this comfortable place? Ophis could not understand.
'Hmm, is this called adult interests? Is Nero growing? Is that why she gave up our Father for the Mothers?'
"...." Nero looked at Ophis and felt a vein bulging on her head. She could very well imagine what that little rascal was thinking!
Ophis and Nero's eyes t, and Nero conveyed with her eyes:
'I did not give up my Father! I just desire to talk about my common interest with Ruby!'
"Bleh." Ophis stuck her little tongue out at Nero.
And that made the veins on Nero's head bulge even more.
Victor just chuckled gently at their interaction. This had indeed been a very fun night.
