Chapter 1076: Chaos. 2
Chapter 1076: Chaos. 2
“What should we do now?”
Victor’s smile grew. “That’s obvious… We grow and devour everything in our path.”
“I like the sound of that.” Azathoth grew a smile similar to Victor’s.
Azathoth hugged Victor’s back while he put his hand in his pocket and began to walk on air. “First, I must gain more Authority and understand more about Creation.”
“The more you learn, the more Authority you gain.” Azathoth nodded.
“And the more Authority I have, the closer I will be to the Administrators.” Victor continued.
“And the closer they are,” Azathoth smiled slightly.
“The easier it will be to discover their weaknesses.” Victor added next.
“And consequently, the stronger you will become.” She nodded. “And the stronger you become, the closer you will be to freeing me.”
“Hmm…”
“…What? What’s with the pause? Are you having second thoughts about it!? Aren’t you going to free me!?” Azathoth glared at Victor with a look that promised much pain.
Victor chuckled lightly, completely ignoring his Wife’s maniacal gaze, and added: “Maybe your release will be sooner than you imagine, my love… And I won’t even need to move to make it happen.”
“…Oh?” Azathoth climbed up Victor’s back and sat on his shoulders, grabbing his face and tilting it up.
Azathoth’s face was currently distorted. It wasn’t something that could be considered a ‘face’, and was very similar to the one Victor would sometimes show.
“What are you planning?”
Far from being frightened by this sight, Victor smiled gently. “Use fear.”
The two stared at each other for a long time until Azathoth’s face returned to normal, and she displayed a large, obscene smile. Her face was slightly red, and she seemed breathless.
“Fear! Of course! That was obvious from the start! Of all the Beings in Existence, only we can use this tactic! Hahahahaha!”
“How cunning, as expected of my Husband…” She fully understood the meaning of Victor’s words after only a few seconds of thinking. After all, as Beings of the same nature, they tended to think in a similar way. “I really want to devour you right now.”
Victor snorted. “You know you can’t take it.” He looked back ahead.
“Fufufufu~, we can always try more to see if that’s true.” She rested her body on his head.
…
Passing through the portal, Victor was greeted by the sight of his Wives.
“Yo, I’m sorry to worry you.” He made a V sign with his hand and smiled widely. He looked like a child who had just succeeded in a prank and was pleased about it.
“…” A silence fell over the room until a collective sigh occurred.
“For a moment, I thought he would act like before. Thank goodness he held back this time.” Agnes spoke more to herself and her Sisters than to Victor.
“Dealing with Primordials is not like our normal enemies, my love. I know that very well.” Victor spoke seriously, leaving aside his jovial personality. “I need to keep my head cool.”
“I can’t blame him. I feel the same anger,” Jeanne said. She was the only one who observed everything from beginning to end. “Luckily, everything was resolved, right?…” She looked at Azathoth, who was on Victor’s shoulders. “… Right?”
“Yeah.” Azathoth showed a big smile.
“Ugh.” A collective groan happened since everyone here knew each other well enough to understand that this simple ‘yeah’ was not a confirmation that everything was fine but a confirmation that it wasn’t over yet. Victor wouldn’t let this go… They weren’t angry; he wouldn’t be Victor if he let what happened go.
It didn’t matter if you were a Werewolf, a Vampire, a God, an Eldritch God, or even a Primordial. Victor didn’t care.
No one threatened his Family.
“I assume we can’t know?” Rose asked.
Victor just gave an apologetic smile, and that smile was all the answer anyone needed.
“Don’t worry…” Victor put Azathoth down and sat on the couch, and the moment he sat down, a red missile quickly jumped on him and hugged him. Victor didn’t deny the hug from this red missile named Pepper and patted her head.
“Nothing will happen for many years. We should focus on ourselves for now.”
Meaning: I won’t attack them until I’m 100% sure about everything. Preparation is necessary.
Everyone here understood the implied message.
“Should we seal these memories and leave them in our territory in your Soul?” Natashia asked.
Every time Victor performed a Soul Marriage, a part of his Wives’ Souls would be left in Victor’s own Soul. This was the ultimate insurance, and if something happened, they could quickly escape to the depths of Victor’s Soul, and if their Souls were eliminated, they could be cut out this way as well.
Victor didn’t play around with safety, and something similar existed for his Daughters as well.
“Yes, it will be safer this way. You will only remember the ‘understanding’ of my actions when you are near me, and I will allow it. This way, any Primordial pursuer who tries to do something will find nothing.”
“Very well.” Natashia nodded and quickly prepared everything. Since she was connected to Victor, she could do this easily, something that everyone present here could as well.
After all, they shared the same connection.
Finishing the preparations, Victor extended his hand, and a sphere of water flew toward the middle of the room and expanded, occupying a large area of ??the room.
“This is the Dimension of The Leviathans. As Goddesses, you will keep an eye on them too, but since they are beasts, and their ecosystem is practically complete, only looking at them from time to time is necessary.”
“Will we use them in the war?” Eleonor asked.
“More like the first invasion when we just want to destroy everything. They and my Dragons are the ‘Death Star’ of the Empire.” Victor explained.
Pepper raised her head and spoke. “Heh, I understood that reference.”
Victor laughed and stroked her head. “I know.”
“Hehehehe~”
Carmila’s eyes twitched slightly when she saw Pepper’s position, and she wasn’t the only one. They wanted to be pampered, too! But they were talking about something serious, and not everyone could act as airheaded as Pepper.
The girl never seemed to grow up, even though she was already a mother.
‘Although, everyone here knows that this is an act.’ Carmila thought. Watching Pepper for a while, a cold sweat started to fall on her cheek. ‘This is an act, right?’
There was no way Pepper hadn’t matured in these past 2000 years.
Ignoring Carmila’s gaze, Victor looked at Jeanne.
“Jeanne, tell Maya, Tasha, and Haruna what happened.”
“I already did it. Everyone already knows what happened, even Violet, Scathach, Kaguya, Sasha, and Ruby…” She thought for a moment and suddenly said: “I forgot about Velnorah.”
“…Think I went too hard on her?” Victor touched his chin.
Hestia, Eve, Aphrodite, and Anna swallowed hard… They knew very well what Victor’s ‘hard-core’ meant. It was something very… exciting… For those who had that kind of fetish, that is.
Victor looked at Agnes.
Feeling Victor’s gaze, Agnes explained. “When I left the ship, she was still sleeping. I tried to wake her up, but she said she wanted to sleep more.”
“…Think I went too hard on her?” Victor touched his chin.
Hestia, Eve, Aphrodite, and Anna swallowed hard… They knew very well what Victor’s ‘hard-core’ meant. It was something very… exciting… For those who had that kind of fetish, that is.
“Will you go back to the Dream?” Victor asked Jeanne.
“Yes, the Dream is almost over. I need to go back to support Yol.”
“Fufufu, my Daughter seems to be having fun,” Azathoth said.
Jeanne glanced at Victor. “Darling… My brother.”
“An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. Blood for blood. The kindness shown to us will never be forgotten, and hostility will be returned a hundred times over.” Victor’s eyes glowed slightly crimson violet.
The meaning of these words to Jeanne was clear. She smiled gently and said, “… Thank you, Darling.”
“Don’t thank me. After all, these words aren’t 100% reliable depending on the situation… But I will always prioritize our Family, my love.”
“…Mm.” Jeanne nodded gently. “I will make sure he chooses the right one in the end.”
“I’m sure he will.” Victor smiled gently, and then he looked at Lilith, Aline, and Persephone.
“My beloved Wives… The Title of Rulers,” The intensity of Victor’s gaze made the three women flinch slightly, not out of fear but rather because of the intensity of his feelings towards something related to the Primordial of Soul.
“I want you to give it back.”
“…Not that I’m against it, but The System needs to work, Darling.” Aline reminded Victor.
“I know… And it will. Why do you think I created the Water Dimension, and your brother-in-law kindly gave me control over everything?” Victor smiled.
For a moment, everyone felt confused, but when the Goddesses related to Hell, as well as Jeanne, thought about it, they opened their eyes wide in shock.
“Did you foresee this?” Lilith asked.
“I didn’t foresee it.” Victor was honest. “I thought the Dimension I was going to create would be attached to The System. I even created a backdoor to influence the Souls… But thanks to our luck, there is a Primordial who hates my Existence.”
‘But how afraid he is of the existence of the irregulars.’ Jeanne thought absently.
“…I guess our Goddess of Luck deserves a raise, huh? Her Blessing is working quite well.” Victor chuckled.
“I wonder why you haven’t gone after her yet…” Naty said.
“…She… She’s too soft.” Victor said.
“Hestia, Sasha, and Pepper are too.” Eve pointed out.
“But there’s madness in them.” Victor smiled.
“Haaah.” Several sighed simultaneously due to Victor’s ‘peculiar’ tastes.
Hestia didn’t even bother to retort this slander since it was true.
“What? What are you talking about? I’m lost here.” Maria spoke, and Bruna, Roberta, Leona, as well as several others nodded in agreement with Maria’s words.
“…Since the Dimension that Victor created was approved by The System and is being sustained by his Energy, Victor, as King of Hell, can use this connection to provide Souls to The System so that we no longer need to have the Title of Ruler.” Lilith sighed.
“That way, he removes us from any kind of influence from the Primordials,” Persephone added.
“The special Souls will not be judged, and this judgment will need to be made by the Primordials themselves, thus giving them more work,” Lilith added.
“An insignificant job, after all, they have many subordinates,” Aline said.
“That’s not all. Now, I can keep the best quality Souls because I am both the King of Hell and the King of Heaven of my Pantheon.” Victor smiled. “I can even ‘merge’ the two Soul pieces and resurrect a Being without expending any Energy.”
“Wait, isn’t the Title of Ruler basically useless to us now?” Lacus spoke.
“Yes,” Lilith spoke. “We really should give our Goddess of Luck a raise.”
“Don’t overdo it, or she’ll get too arrogant,” Hestia said. She knew her fellow Greeks very well.
“Oh, my dear, Hestia… She won’t dare get too arrogant.” Aphrodite spoke with a light laugh.
Hestia broke out in a cold sweat. She opened her mouth to ask what Aphrodite was going to do, but upon reflection, she decided that the question wasn’t worth her time.
