em

Surprisingly, Sasha didn't immediately ask for her prize and said that she would order something from Victor in the near future.

Victor nodded, indicating that he understood since he had some expectations of what Sasha's request would be.

For some reason, his thoughts always turned to inappropriate content, and he wouldn't deny he was a little horny at the sight of Sasha sweaty body and her legs.

After the small duel between Victor and Sasha, the whole group stared at the amount of items with a neutral look, while the only thing that went through their minds was:

'I don't want to carry this...' They looked quite unwell. They didn't want to carry all these items to Victor's house, which was literally thousands of KM away!

They could hire a plane too and charm all humans to forget everything they saw.

But that would still take a long time!

"...Hmm..." Victor had his hand on his chin as he seemed to be thinking about something.

"...Yes, Yes. You can come, tell her to get everything ready."

"The coordinates of this place are…"

Ruby appeared to be talking to someone on the phone.

"..." Violet, Sasha, and Bruna looked at Ruby curiously, wondering who she was talking to.

From Ruby's tone of voice, Violet seemed to have an idea who she was talking to, but she wasn't 100% sure.

Ruby finished talking on the phone, and just as she finished talking on the phone, a large portal appeared near the group.

"...Did she hit the spot with just the coordinates? As expected of someone from that Clan…"

"Sorry for the delay, Lady Violet."

"... It's ok. Ruby had already explained everything to me, but couldn't you have finished sooner?"

"Well, some things didn't go as planned, and we had to use the alternate plan."

"Alternative plan?" Violet didn't know that.

"Burn everything, destroy everything… Or as Lady Violet preferred to call this plan."

"Oh..." Violet's smile started to widen, "I like that kind of plan."

"Yeah, I know." Natalia smiled since she was a little happy that she didn't need to use the 'NE' plan.

Now you ask, what is the 'NE' plan?

Of course, the 'NE' plan was to Nuke Everything.

A simple plan, a plan that solved most problems.

And since the Nuke they were going to use was supernatural in origin, the explosion wouldn't risk radiation.

Nature would thank you for eliminating these pests from the surface of the planet! Earth-chan will be happy!

…Now… Where would they get a Nuke?

The witches, of course! They sell everything! And when talking about everything! It's literally everything!

But the price would surely be steep… And because of that, Natalia was relieved that she wouldn't have to come to that option.

Natalia looked around, and then her eyes stopped on June.

"...Ara." She flashed a small smile as she remembered that she still hadn't received a report from June.

"!!!" June felt her entire spine tremble when she saw Natalia's smile.

"Umu, it's good that you came, Natalia. I was already thinking about how we were going to take it all." Victor suddenly spoke up.

"..." June looked at Victor like he was her savior. She wouldn't mind giving him 5% off her service!

"..." Natalia looked at Victor, who was walking towards her:

"I-..." She was about to say something but fell silent when Victor's shadow seemed to grow, and then three women in the room appeared and stepped into his shadow.

Victor passed by Natalia and spoke in a slightly tired voice:

"I'm going ahead, I'm a little tired. You can call me if you need anything."

"W-Wait-." She was going to say that she hadn't finished adjusting the portal yet!

"D-Darling!?" Violet and Ruby spoke at the same time in an attempt to stop Victor.

But it was too late since Victor had already passed through the portal.

And the moment Victor passed through the portal, Violet and Ruby went after him, but Natalia held up her hand.

"Stop, the portal has already been calibrated. If you enter now, you will just fall into Victor's training room."

"...fuck." Violet and Ruby spoke at the same time.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"..." Ruby and Violet looked at Sasha, who was completely unaware of what was going on.

And June, who was whistling around in an attempt to get people to ignore her existence.

"..." Ruby and Violet looked at each other and nodded. It seemed they just completely forgot to tell Sasha what she was doing.

But it wasn't their fault, it's just that Sasha was too focused on the personal issues involving Maria and Carlos.

And because of that, they made room for Sasha… Wait, Maria…?

"Oh..." They just realized that they forgot Maria was up there too.

"Sasha, did you forget your maid?"

"... I did not forget." Sasha made a hard face and completely denied Ruby's accusation.

"I'll get her."

Rumble, Rumble.

Sasha disappeared from the scene.

"She's definitely over the woman..." Violet smiled.

And in less than a few seconds, Sasha was back with Maria.

"Ugh, I'll never get used to this..." Maria, who still looked weakened, spoke up.

"Anyway. Let's hurry up and get all these items into the portal, the work shouldn't be difficult now that everything is in order."

"Yes~." All the girls present said, except for Natalia.

"...You will work too." Ruby pointed at Natalia.

"But I'm already maintaining the portal, and that costs a huge amount of energy." Natalia could lie as easily as she could breathe.

Was it difficult for her to maintain the portal? Yes, but it didn't cost a huge amount of energy. After all, she was already very proficient in this power, and because of that, she didn't expend as much energy as she used to in the past.

... In the end, she was just being lazy.

And Ruby knew she was being lazy, but with how perfectly she carried out the order she gave Natalia…

Ruby accepted her being lazy for now.

"Fine, but report back to me after this about all you've done."

"...Yes." Natalia spoke with a difficult face.

The Lost Club.

"…Umu?" Victor found himself in a strange office:

"Well, this is not my house." He looked around and saw that it was a pretty normal office.

Suddenly, a door opened near the desk in the office, and a woman with short white hair came out completely the way she came into the world, while she just had a small towel around her neck.

She had a can of beer in her hand.

Gulp, Gulp.

She drank the whole can of beer.

"Ahhhhhh," She makes a sound similar to those drunks when she drinks a full glass of beer.

"That girl is a sadist. How can she order me to attack several church branches at once? She's intending to make war-…" She froze when she saw Victor's appearance.

[...Master has strange luck...] Kaguya couldn't help but sigh.

"...Ara." She flashed a small smile.

"Oh, pretend I don't exist, I'm just passing by."

"... It's impossible..."

"Indeed." Victor flashed a small smile.

"Hmm..." Victor stared at the woman, and his eyes glowed slightly blood red for a few seconds:

"A witch, huh?"

"Correction, I'm a clandestine witch."

[... Clandestine witches are witches who have no affiliation with the witch queen. They are usually women who will deceive supernatural beings who trust them too much.]

"Not much different from a normal witch then," Victor spoke up.

[Yes, but normal witches have to follow a contract so as not to tarnish the witch queen's reputation, an underground witch doesn't need to do that.]

"How rude, I'm different from those girls." The woman thought that Victor was talking to her.

"I see..." Victor seemed to understand what Kaguya was talking about.

"... Hmm." The woman was feeling strange, she looked at Victor with her eyes, and as this was her territory, the magic of the place immediately began to take effect to satisfy the owner's curiosity;

'Strange...' For some reason, she could feel 5 life forces inside Victor.

'The new count is a monster... Why does he have so many souls inside him?'

Currently, inside Victor were Kaguya, Bruna, Eve, the 'thing' inside Eve, and Victor himself.

Five souls in one body, and because of that, she completely misunderstood the situation.

"Where am I, witch?"

"...You can call me Esther, Count Alucard."

"Oh? You seem to know me."

"... You're kidding? You're a celebrity right now, the fifth count of vampires, the new pillar of vampire society, the disciple of Scathach, etc, etc."

"Right now, you are like The Beatles who exploded internationally."

"What an exaggerated comparison," Victor spoke with a slight smile. Unlike The Beatles, who made amazing songs, Victor just kicked some opponents' asses. It's nothing too significant.

[But it's the truth.]

"But it's the truth."

"...." Victor was speechless when he heard Kaguya and Esther talking at the same time.

"…Where am I, witch?"

"...I already told you, you came to me-." She was going to repeat what she said earlier but stopped when she saw Victor's eyes glowing slightly blood red. For some reason, her entire existence shook as she looked into the man's eyes.

"...You're at my bar, The Lost Club."

"The Lost Club?"

"It's a bar that brings together all kinds of races, a neutral area." She spoke and added in her thoughts; 'For now, after all, if anyone finds out what happened today, I will lose this neutrality.'

"Oh...?" Victor's smile grew immensely as he became quite interested in seeing a place that had several races gathered.

Gulp.

Esther couldn't help but swallow hard as she felt the small aura that leaked from Victor's body.

Recently, Victor and his Maids killed an entire village of wolves, werewolves who committed unimaginable cruelties to women. Not to mention he absorbed the blood of all these wolves and those three men who turned into a disgusting monster who also killed a lot of beings.

Consequently, the aura emanating from Victor's body was terrible, and even more so when that aura matched Kaguya's and his natural aura as a Night King.

'Now... Now, I understand when Ruby said that if he had been here when that wolf attacked her, this place would have turned into ruins...' Esther thought internally.

"Can you show me the place, witch?" Victor made a request. If she refused, he would explore on his own.

But for Esther, Victor's request didn't come out as a request but as an order, an order she must obey.

"Of course, Alucard." Esther walked towards him.

"Before that." Victor made a stop sign.

"...?" Esther looked at Victor with curious eyes.

"Put on some clothes, woman, or are you an exhibitionist?"

"...Oh, I forgot about that." Esther turned and reentered the door from which she had come.

She even tried to shake her ass a little in an attempt to seduce Victor, but all that was in vain. If it was Scathach or one of his wives, Victor might even be attracted, but when any other woman tried to do that, he just didn't feel it. No reaction at all.

In a physiological sense, he could maybe feel something, but...

Scathach and Violet, Ruby, and Sasha's charm are very high...

Somehow, being around such beautiful women, Victor's sense of beauty was completely destroyed.

It's something like you see the beauty of a goddess, and you can never be satisfied with a normal woman again.

It was for this reason that Aphrodite was so hated by women in the past, but that's a story for another time.

[I don't like this woman.] Eve spoke for the first time.

[Me neither, for some reason, I want to kill her.] Bruna agreed with Eve. She was a Nun before, she's a kind person, but for some reason, she didn't like that woman.

[...How did you get to this place?] Kaguya asked with a little hint of shock in her voice.

[We just followed you.] The two spoke at the same time.

[Such Bullshit, you cannot enter this place without my permission.]

[Even if you say that... We just followed you.]

[Yes.] Eve agreed with Bruna.

[...Did you feel something trying to force you out of this place?]

[Hmm, I remember feeling it, but it didn't last long.] Bruna spoke up.

[I felt nothing.]

[...what the fuck?] Kaguya couldn't understand anything else; maybe it's because of Victor's blood inside them? That was the only explanation she could come up with.

"..." Victor put his hand on his head a little.

"Can you stop talking at the same time? I feel like I'm going crazy."

[Oh...] The three spoke at the same time.

[I'm sorry, I'll cut off their voice-."

"It's not that. I'm fine with you guys talking in my head, but just don't talk at the same time."

[Okay...] Kaguya spoke, and the two women nodded.

...

Kaguya's Shadow.

In a completely dark place that had a small television on top that seemed to be Victor's vision.

Bruna gestured to Kaguya, a gesture that said, cut my voice.

"..." Kaguya looked confused at Bruna, had the woman finally gone mad?

"...Just cut my voice."

"Oh." Kaguya snapped her finger, and nodded her head indicating that she could speak.

"We can't make our master crazier, you should cut our voices when it's not necessary." Bruna said, because she had felt a little chill down her spine when Victor said he was going crazy.

"..." Eve didn't have much of an opinion on that, since, it didn't matter to her what Victor was like.

"... That's a good idea." Kaguya thought it wasn't such a bad idea. After all, she didn't want to see her master going crazy hearing so many voices in his head.

"Look, she's back." Bruna spoke in a venomous tone.

Chapter 206: Vampire Meets Wolf And Fox.

Esther returned, and this time, she was wearing a fitted black suit that accentuated her curvy body, along with a fur coat.

"Count Alucard, please call me Madam when we're out of this place." She asked Victor, hoping he would do so.

"Sure thing, Witch." Victor spoke as he looked at the woman's clothes with a curious look.

"..." Will he keep calling me Witch? Esther was speechless.

After observing the woman's clothes for a while, Victor lost interest and spoke:

"Lead the way."

"..." Again, the woman didn't know how to react. Why is he treating her as if she were his maid? She's not, okay!?

But...

"Fine." She couldn't refuse…

After all, the man in front of her was a Count Vampire and the husband of her 'boss'.

The two walked towards the exit, and soon the door was closed.

...

"My nightclub/Bar/mercenary center doesn't have many interesting places. The only place I'm sure you'll like is the nightclub itself."

"Hmm... Why did you put so many '/' to define your establishment?" Victor was really curious about this.

He looked around with his gaze and saw the figure of a woman, but this woman had a chaotic aura. He became interested in this woman's aura, but when he turned that way and went to the place where the woman was, the aura of the woman disappeared, and she became an ordinary human.

'Hmm…' When Victor started to think of something, his thoughts were interrupted by Esther.

"...Originally, my nightclub was a meeting place for supernaturals, so, of course, strange business would be done, but..."

Esther turned around and spoke with a faint smile, "We mainly deal with hiring mercenaries, gathering and selling information."

Victor looked at Esther and said:

"...But you still don't compare yourself to the Queens' witches, right?" He decided he would look into it later.

Seeing Victor's neutral face, Esther was a little disappointed and turned around. She knew she couldn't compare with the Queens' witches, but it's hard to compete with an old woman who had been building her empire before she was even born.

'Although... This place would be more reliable if someone had control of this woman.' Victor thought that if someone wanted to have an information network, they should just control or come to terms with this woman since she seemed to be competent. Though both the witches and this woman in front of him weren't trustworthy enough, but at least the witches fulfilled their contract.

Despite having thought of it, Victor still hadn't had a bad experience with witches like Ruby had since the only witches he'd come in contact with so far were June, Hecate, and this woman now.

Walking down the stairs, the sound of the nightclub grew louder as Victor descended, and soon Victor found himself in a nightclub full of supernatural beings.

Victor's eyes unconsciously began to glow blood red:

"Whoaa." He opened his mouth in shock as his world filled with colors. Despite everything being red, as usual, some people had colorful auras, and some even had animal shapes covering their bodies.

"..." Esther flashed a small satisfied smile when she saw Victor's reaction and thought he was in awe of her nightclub.

"...!" Feeling a dangerous gaze watching them, they all stopped what they were doing and looked towards the stairs.

And soon they saw a tall man beside Madam.

The moment everyone saw the man's appearance and his blood-red eyes, everyone immediately recognized him.

"... AAA. Ouch!" Someone bit their tongue.

"COUNT ALUCARD!?"

"W-What...!?" Someone rubbed his eyes several times and couldn't believe he was seeing a Count in this place.

"He is here!?"

"What should we do!?"

"What an overreaction..." He had just entered casually, okay? And it's not like he did anything unusual. He just beat up some beings and challenged the king, that was all!

In a strange way, was Victor very humble? He didn't believe what he did was an achievement. After all, he was just being himself.

[This is normal.]

"This is normal."

"..." Again, Victor was speechless when he heard Kaguya and Esther in perfect sync.

[This woman, I'm starting to like her.] Kaguya looked a little pleased.

[You are so cheap, don't sell yourself easily because someone praised our master!] Bruna complained.

[Kaguya is cheap...] Eve supported.

[I'm not cheap!] Kaguya growled.

They seemed to be getting along in a strange way.

"What is he doing here…?" a woman asked while looking at Victor curiously.

"I don't know, but prepare for anything, a visit from a Count is never a good thing." A man who was beside the woman spoke.

"You're exaggerating, he doesn't look like someone who is going to destroy this place because someone insulted him." The same woman spoke.

"Indeed, he doesn't look like a young master." A nearby woman supported her.

"He's probably just going to fight that person and send them to the next world." Another nearby woman spoke up.

"Indeed, indeed." A woman of Kaguya's height nodded as if in agreement with the two women.

"...I'm curious, how can you know how he will react just by seeing his appearance?"

"Instinct." The three spoke at the same time.

The man opened his mouth in shock for a few seconds, and then he said:

"Such bullshit!"

"Well, if you don't believe it, that's your problem." The woman next to the man spoke up.

"What-." The man looked like he was going to say something, but he was interrupted when a change started to occur in the nightclub.

"Oh?" Victor suddenly vanished and then reappeared in front of the counter while facing a man.

"F-Fast." Few got to see what Victor did.

"As expected of a count, he is strong!" Some women had their eyes glittering dangerously.

They could easily tell that he wasn't even trying when he demonstrated that speed. He did something unbelievable as if it was something common!

"Again, this female instinct talk is bullshit!" The same man spoke.

"Shut up!" The three women punched the man in the face.

"Ughyaaa!" He made a strange scream.

"...Well..." Eddy was in a cold sweat now, while he looked like a baby chick that was being stared at by a stronger predator.

'Why is he so tall?' To Eddy, Victor appeared to be much taller than he really was.

Victor ignored Eddy's gaze and looked up a little as if he was looking at something, his smile grew a little, and he turned to the witch:

"You really have good taste, Witch."

A small bead of sweat fell from Esther's face:

"...What are you talking about?"

"...I see, you're going to play this game." Victor's smile grew a little.

Gulp.

Several people gulped when they saw this man's smile, and they were shocked when he...

He sat in the chair and ordered a drink.

"Give me anything, little fox."

'Little fox…?' Everyone turned their heads in confusion and didn't understand what he was talking about.

"!!!" Eddy and Esther's eyes gleamed widely.

"H-How!?"

"Who knows?" Victor flashed his usual smile.

[Little fox...?] Kaguya didn't understand why her master called him that, but after she thought for a while, her eyes widened.

[Don't tell me...] She stared at the man with a serious look.

"..." An awkward silence fell around. No one knew what to do, so they just kept looking at Victor, who was sitting with a small smile on his face as he looked at the man.

"Hello, little fox? Give me anything suitable for a vampire."

"O-Okay." Despite being surprised, Eddy did as Victor asked.

Victor looked at Esther out of the corner of his eye, "Witch, sit with me for a while, let's have a drink."

"... Okay."

Internally, Esther was cursing Natalia for letting this man come to this place.

...

"What is it?" Victor asked curiously as he looked at the drink in front of him. The drink was in a wine glass, the liquid was red, and it had some ice in it.

That's a special vampire Drink."

"...This is blood, right?" Victor looked at Eddy.

"Wrong. Actually… This is blood, but different." He was going to deny it, but he couldn't deny that it was blood, so in the end, he gave up.

"Oh?"

"Go ahead and try it."

"Okay."

Victor took the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Oh? It tastes like orange."

"As you know, vampires have only one meal, blood. So we tried everything to explore new flavors derived from blood." Esther began to explain:

"What you drank is basically blood, but it has magic inside to slightly change the taste to simulate the flavor of normal food."

"Ohhhh, this is interesting."

"Indeed. Us-... Wait, I have a call." Esther was going to say something, but when she felt her cell phone vibrate in her pocket, she stopped what she was going to say and got up from the place.

Moving away from Victor, she removed her cell phone and put a little isolation spell around her, and, looking at the name on the cell, she answered the phone and said:

"Ruby?"

"Esther, don't hit on my husband, or I'll kill you."

"..."

"That's a very appropriate way to start a conversation."

"..." Ruby didn't answer, while she just stayed silent.

Feeling a shiver down her spine, Esther quickly said, "Look, I know, okay? I have no interest in that sort of thing," she lied. She was only interested in that kind of thing when the man was under her complete control. She enjoyed it more that way and liked to treat men as her personal toy.

And that's something inevitable when you live for a long time since you end up picking up some weird fetishes. Esther's fetish was being in control of everything.

"And he didn't seem interested in me even though I was naked."

"..."

'Shit.' Esther cursed her mouth now.

Ruby's voice came out colder and darker than usual, "We'll talk later." She suddenly hung up the phone.

"Ruby? Ruby!?" Esther looked at her cell phone and saw that the call had ended.

"Fuck!" She was getting a bad feeling about this.

Esther didn't have much time to grieve because when she turned to face the entrance to the nightclub, she saw a tall, white-haired man enter.

'Fuck, Johnny? He came at a worse time.'

...

'Hmm, it took a while, but I managed to convince all the girls to move to my house. As long as Anderson is in town, that is the safest place for them.' Johnny didn't trust Anderson at all.

'I'll wait for Roberta today, Judy, and Jinsei is already home."

'Hmm?' Johnny looked at his usual seat and saw a man sitting there, he made a slightly annoyed expression, and as usual, he tapped the man on the shoulder and said:

"Hey Buddy, this seat is booked. Why don't you get off?"

"..." The environment that was already silent became even more silent, and it was as if no one dared to breathe.

"Oh." The man turned his face and looked at Johnny, he had a small smile on his face, a smile that promised trouble, but when the man looked at Johnny, his face became neutral.

Seeing the man's black hair, blood-red eyes, pale skin, and the suit he was wearing, the man understood something upon seeing this man's very visible features.

"Alucard, the fifth count..."

"Johnny! How are you, friend? Why don't you sit here!?" Eddy spoke as he pointed to a spot, his gaze said, 'don't cause fuckin' trouble!'

"Okay."

'He gave up!?' The crowd that knew Johnny was surprised by the man's decision.

The man continued to stare at Johnny with a neutral gaze:

"What's your name?"

"My name is Johnny, The White Wolf, a mercenary. I can do anything for the right price, but I will never kill children." He spoke in a neutral tone as he held up his hand for Eddy to give him a drink.

"Hmm..." The man tapped his finger lightly on the counter:

"Hey, look at me."

"Hmm-..." When Johnny looked into the man's eyes, he froze like a robot.

"What is your full name?"

"Jonathan Lykos."

"Lykos, huh..." He closed his eyes.

"What-... What was that?" He quickly turned away from Victor and looked at the man with a neutral but menacing gaze:

'I was just charmed? I? An alpha werewolf who should have resistance to this!? Just how strong is he?'

"..." Eddy and Esther, who were watching their conversation, were shocked by what just happened and unconsciously felt a chill down their spine.

After all, what Victor just did was impossible in their view. He just charmed a werewolf who should have a natural resistance to this power.

And it's not just any werewolf, it's an Alpha werewolf!

When they understood that they asked themselves the same question as Johnny: How strong is this man?

"To think I would find a relative of the old man here."

"Old?"

"Tell me, what are you of his? The son? The uncle? The grandfather?" This time, Victor asked normally as he took his wineglass from him and rocked it back and forth.

"What old man are you talking about?"

"...Don't pretend to misunderstand." Victor looked at Johnny out of the corner of his eye, "You know very well who I'm talking about."

"... I do not understand." He continued to play dumb.

"..." Victor's eyes narrowed, and a black aura began to leave his body.

Gulp.

Everyone who felt this aura unconsciously swallowed and took a step back.

"I'm talking about the alpha werewolf, Adam William Lykos. What are you to him?"

"..." A cold sweat came down on Johnny's forehead. He knew that if he answered an answer that didn't satisfy this man, something... Something terrible was going to happen.

"...I'm Adam's eldest son."

Chapter 207: Strange Situation.

"...I'm Adam's eldest son."

"..." Victor's aura disappeared as if it had never been there, and he turned to look straight ahead.

"I see." He picked up the wineglass and drank it again in one gulp.

'The old man's son, huh...' Victor didn't know what to think of Johnny. For him, Adam is like a friend who watched him grow up, he had a lot of respect for the old man, and even he didn't know of Johnny's existence.

'Do Edward and Leona know about him?' Victor thought to himself and felt it was very likely that the two of them didn't know about their older brother. After all, knowing his friends, he was sure they would've talked about it to Victor, even if it was casually, without saying anything on werewolf matters.

'That old man, did he just go around making children with any werewolf woman he found?' Victor had a feeling that was entirely possible since that old man had the same playboy feeling he felt from his friend Andrew.

"..." When Victor fell into his thoughts, the people around him were still watching cautiously, and curiously, this was the first time they had seen a Count in person, so they were dying of curiosity!

But they know they shouldn't exaggerate too much, considering Counts are known to be beings that can easily lose control and destroy a country.

Victor looked at Eddy and asked,

"Hey, little fox. Do you have more drinks of other flavors?"

"…Eh?" Eddy was taken aback, but he quickly said, "I do."

"Good. I want more drinks." Victor was curious about the tastes of the drinks.

"Okay." Eddy, as an excellent professional, started to make several drinks for Victor.

Victor, "About the payment-." He was about to say something, but Esther suddenly said:

"It's on the house."

"...Oh?" Victor looked at Esther with a curious expression as the woman walked over to Victor's vacant side and sat on the bench.

"You can take anything, and nothing will be charged." She felt like she would be fucked over later if Ruby found out that she demanded anything from her husband.

"...." Johnny and everyone else squinted a little when they heard Esther's words. Isn't that some very special treatment?

They couldn't help but think about it.

"How nice of you, Witch." Victor flashed a small smile.

"That's the least I can do for someone of your status." She flashed a small smile.

[Hmm... Hmm.] Kaguya was feeling satisfied. [As expected, this woman is a good person.]

[Like I said, don't sell yourself easily because someone praised our master!] Bruna was irritated again.

[Kaguya is cheap...] Eve agreed with Bruna.

[I'm not!] Kaguya spoke in a cold tone

"..." Victor was silent, he was feeling strange that someone had treated him 'specially', this was the first time he felt it so clearly, but it wasn't a bad feeling.

"..." The audience that knew Johnny looked at the man with a slight look of disdain.

"... So when it's a Count in person, the White Wolf doesn't have the same courage as always." Someone spoke in contempt when they saw Johnny's passive attitude, as this person was clearly wanting to see this circus burn.

"Indeed, indeed." A man agreed with his partner and said:

"Yes, I thought he would attack Count Alucard like he did Countess Scathach's daughter."

"!!!" Eddy and Esther looked at the group with a panicked face, while they had a look that said, you motherfuckers pay attention to your mouth!

"Alucard-." Esther quickly tried to talk to Victor, but she froze when she saw the man's face.

'His face disappeared...' She swallowed and unconsciously pulled away from Victor.

"...Oh..." A dark pressure descended throughout the establishment.

People fell to the ground, they felt as if the gravity of the place was increased several times, people's faces turned pale with fear, these beings' bodies froze in pure terror, they couldn't move!!

Just what is this man? Wrong, what is this monster!?

"..." Cold sweat started to run down Johnny's face.

Silently, Eddy started to back away from the counter. He just couldn't stand Victor's face for long since he felt like something inside him was going to break if he continued.

Victor set his wineglass on the counter and looked at Johnny.

Gulp.

Johnny swallowed hard when he saw Victor's face:

"Tell me, is this story true?" Victor asked. Wrong, he ordered.

Johnny would deny it, but it was pretty apparent that Victor had already decided this story was true.

"I-..." Before Johnny could respond, people heard the voice:

"Johnny, what's going on?"

"..." Everyone, including Victor, looked at the woman who spoke.

And then they saw an adult woman who was wearing a black dress that highlighted her curvy body.

"Roberta-..." Johnny was going to tell Roberta to get out of this place as quickly as possible, but he froze when he saw Victor standing in front of the woman.

'When did he get to that place!?'

Victor stared at the woman. She had a seductive aura around her and that, at the same time, held melancholy.

The woman lifted her face a little and looked at Victor's face without fear:

"Ara, you have a pretty face..." She smiled vacantly as she looked at Victor with empty eyes.

Victor's eyes twitched for a few seconds but then returned to normal:

"..." Victor lightly touched the woman's face and lifted her head, as he looked deeply into the woman's eyes:

"Your eyes..." Victor seemed to have noticed something, "Your violet eyes are just like my wife's."

Unlike Elizabeth, who also had violet eyes, Victor felt nothing when he looked into Roberta's eyes, and he didn't feel a sense of 'familiarity'. He didn't feel that same feeling that he knew those eyes held, though it was a similar feeling he now recognizes when he looks at this woman.

And he also noticed something, this woman, she had the same silhouette of that chaotic aura that he saw before coming down to this place.

"She must be a lucky woman to have you as her husband." The woman spoke with a 'gentle' smile.

Victor ignored the woman and asked, "What's your name, witch?" Despite having heard the name of Johnny's wife, Victor still asked since he wanted to hear it straight from the woman's mouth.

"...?" Esther's eyes twitched a little, was she harboring another witch and didn't know? Did she go blind?

It may seem strange, but Esther trusted Alucard's judgment, despite knowing him for a few seconds.

Why did she trust him?

Well, he discovered Eddy's secret like it was no big deal, and she made sure to put in several wards to hide Eddy's race, and yet… This man found out.

She didn't know how, but this man had something that could look past deception.

"Roberta." The moment she said that Victor saw something in the woman's aura, and, just for a few seconds, the woman's aura seemed to have split in two, one chaotic and one human.

"Interesting..." Victor's smile grew a little, "Interesting indeed."

"Grr..." Seeing Victor too close to Roberta, Johnny started to get irritated, the sense of protecting what is precious to him started to trigger, and he saw Victor as an enemy.

Hair began to grow on Johnny's body, and slowly, he began to transform into his werewolf form.

"..." Victor looked out of the corner of his eye at Johnny and spoke in a voice that sent shivers through everyone around him:

"Stay, dog."

"..." Johnny couldn't move, he was paralyzed.

"If you move, you die. If you bark, you die. If you dare to leave this place, you die." It was a warning that completely pierced Johnny's entire being.

Victor didn't give a damn if this man was Adam's son. Yes, he may lose Adam's friendship, maybe Leona and Edward, but...

He didn't care, he needed to understand what this man did to his wife, and depending on what happened, there's only one fate... Death.

That never changed. Even Maria, who spent a lot of time with the group, would die if it wasn't for Sasha.

Victor has no mercy.

Especially when he gets angry.

And why is he acting like this if he's not even sure what that man said was true?

He didn't need to be sure. Esther, Eddy, and Johnny's hesitation was all the certainty he needed.

In that little second, the aforementioned ones acted as if they were trying to hide something.

He doesn't know the details, but he does know that this man attacked his wife, and he needs to know what happened and why Ruby didn't say anything to him.

But first…

Victor looked back at Roberta and looked into the woman's violet eyes:

"...Tell me, are you awake?" He asked a question.

"...?" She cutely turned her face, "What are you talking about? I'm awake, look I'm awake now, right?" She completely misunderstood Victor's question.

"... Hmm." Victor seemed to be thinking about something.

"What is your real name?" he asked with his eyes glowing blood red.

Roberta seemed to freeze and said:

"Roberta." In a monotone.

"..." Victor again saw her aura split in two and return to normal. It was as if it was done unconsciously like she was rejecting that name.

'...This woman...' Victor narrowed his eyes a little, he more or less could understand what was happening, but at the same time, he didn't understand anything. The only thing he knew was...

This woman is in a similar situation to his Maid, with the only difference being that she seems to be in a much deeper abyss.

Much deeper, an abyss few could understand.

"Eve." Victor called someone.

Soon a maid with long black hair steps out of his shadow.

"Yes, My Master."

"What do you think of her?" Victor pointed at Roberta.

"..." Eve looked at Roberta.

"...?" Roberta woke up from her stupor and realized she was Charmed by the man in front of her, as she made an annoyed face:

"You don't need to charm me with your power, just ask me something, and I'll answer, no need to be rude." She seemed to pout.

"Oh?" Victor liked the woman's courage a little.

After observing the woman's entire body, Eve spoke:

"Is she thick?"

"...." An even greater silence fell on the place.

And a thought popped into everyone's head.

Just what's going on? What is this man trying to do!?

"...That's not what I'm talking about..." Victor's face returned to normal, and he facepalmed.

"...Ugh. This place stinks." Eve cupped her nose as she brushed something away with her foot.

She was disgusted with this place and, for some reason, wanted to throw up. 'I want to go back to the master's shadow, but the master called me… Hmm… This woman, she is strange… Well, I'm hungry.'

Maid's thoughts were all random.

"..." Esther's eyes narrowed a little when she heard what Eve said.

Victor's aura seemed to diminish, and soon everyone could breathe again.

Victor looked at Johnny:

"Where did you find her?"

"Grr, that's of your-."

Victor appeared in front of Johnny and lifted him by the neck:

"That wasn't a question." His eyes began to glow blood red:

"Answer me."

Johnny is paralyzed like a robot, his eyes start to glow blood red, and soon he starts talking:

"I do not know."

"…Huh…?"

Victor made an annoyed face:

"Are you lying to me?"

"I am not."

"???" Question marks began to appear in Esther, Eddy, and Victor's heads.

"What the fuck is going on here?" Victor dropped Johnny to the floor.

He looked at Esther, "Witch, do you know something?"

"...?" Esther looked at Victor as she put her hand on her chin and started to think, "Hmm, I remember she showed up with Johnny… Hmmmm?"

"I can't remember." Esther made a strange face, she looked at Eddy:

"Eddy?"

"…Hmm, I remember when Jinsei showed up, she was together with Jinsei?" Eddy started to think and tried to remember when this woman had appeared, but he couldn't.

"Hmm?" Eddy looked the most confused of all. How could he not know anything? He was something of a best friend to Johnny, and he knew almost everything about the man's life, but why couldn't he remember this woman?

"...Do you have no memories of how this woman got here?" Victor looked at the group unbelievably. Are they trying to trick him?

But from the look on the group's eyes, Victor understood that they weren't trying to trick him.

"..." Victor, Eddy, Esther, and even Johnny, who had recovered, looked at Roberta with a strange look.

Roberta just showed a kind smile and said:

"Ara? What's happening? Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked seductively.

"..." Victor looked at Johnny with a neutral gaze and pointed at the woman with his finger.

"She's your lover or fuck friend or something, correct? Do you remember fucking her?"

"..." Everyone was silent. Can't you be a little more gentle with words!? Everyone wanted to speak but remained silent.

"…Hmm, I remember last night she and I went to the bedroom, but… Huh?" Johnny made a strange face:

"I just remember waking up the other day."

Victor looked at Johnny with an unbelievable look.

'Seriously, what the fuck is going on here? And why do I always get myself into strange situations? Perhaps, I should contain my curiosity more.'
