19 Venelana’s Displeasure and Teasing.
After Romonus collected his Evil Pieces, he did not delay long as he did not have much reason to stay longer. He had nothing against Ajuka as the man was technically his new uncle, but he did kill his relative so he did not want to stick around.
Though he didn't just leave he had to be polite.
"Uncle, it has been nice talking to you. Any time you can give me a lesson to improve?"
Ajuka gave a small smile.
"Next time I give Latia a lecture come along. I might as well show I am the better teacher. It was still incredibly lucky of you to receive 3 Mutation Pieces. I can't wait to see what you will do with them."
Romonus did not consider it luck as he got those because of the power he had earned. He was 11 years old and his power was growing by the day thanks to the great mentoring he received.
A big part still took raw talent which he had in spades. Combine that with hard work, which made him into a little monster.
"See you uncle."
With practiced ease, he created a teleport circle and returned to his mansion. As usual, he always chose his room, but he noticed something. The memories of his original coordinates were messed with. It did not seem that Ajuka did it himself, but rather the whole Separate Space had such an effect.
'Clever, that way no one can know where the core of the Evil Piece system is. Heaven had G.O.D., Grigori has Azazel and we have Ajuka. Seems fair.'
Regardless, now that he had his Evil Pieces he could begin to travel the world. He still wanted to get Akeno before doing anything as her Lineage as a Cadre was beyond valuable.
He knew more than she did about herself as he was not going to allow her to wallow in her trauma. It might be cruel, but he could and would not allow her to waste her Holy Lighting. He needed it to train his resistance to Holy Energies and she would be an asset when he invaded the Vampire realm for Valerie and Gasper.
'I should hold my horses, as long as I get Tobio, and Akeno Vampires will be the least of my worries. That isn't even counting me.'
He shook his head as he walked out of his room. He decided to go tell his mother as he knew she would have far more free time than his Father. If his Father was not involved in the duties as the Lord of house Gremory he was off fucking his dime a dozen maids.
While Romonus could respect the idea of such a large harem, each one was 'cheap'. They were copies of each other with only different faces and hair colors with the same bodies. He shook his head at the idea of collecting a harem only for their looks.
Regardless he eventually arrived at his Mother's office. It was where she often went to deal with the business calls or simply kept to herself.
"Mom, I got good news."
When he opened the door and walked in he saw his Mother sitting with her head on the desk. When she heard him she tilted her head a little to gaze at him with her purple eye. Romonus was quite surprised as his Mother looked depressed.
Her hair was disheveled, she looked exhausted and like she had not slept in days. That changed when she saw him causing her to perk up. She rubbed her eyes a little as she tried to play it off.
"Romonus. Sorry, you had to see me like that, did you get your pieces?"
Romonus did not answer as he walked over to her side. He reached out for her disheveled hair and with a bit of magic straightened it out for her.
"Mom, you look terrible. What happened?"
She sighed as she rested her chin on her arms.
"That obvious?"
He nodded with worry in his eyes.
"Yes. I have never seen you like this in my life. What can I do?"
She sat up and waved her hand to close the door to her office. She locked and warded everything so nothing got out. She clenched her hands as her face began to pull back into an expression of pure loathing.
"Do you remember Marcina?"
Romonus nodded with squinted eyes.
"The black-haired bimbo? The one who is always in Father's office sucking him off or fucking him?"
Venelana began to chuckle at the accurate description.
"The very same. I thought I was the only one who disliked her."
He shook his head.
"I despise her kind the most. What did she do?"
Venelan took a deep breath as she broke the news.
"Your Father in his infinite wisdom got the slut pregnant. I just found out from him myself last night."
Romonus's face quickly warped into an expression of barely concealed wrath. His Mother had explained to him that she and Zeoticus had one rule for him to have a harem. He could NOT get them pregnant and that one rule had been broken.
"What was he thinking?"
"He wasn't as we can now see."
Marcina knew that was the rule and either she, Zeoticus or both had to use magic to prevent pregnancy. But that did not happen as now she was with a child. Seeing his angered expression made her feel glad he was on her side.
Everyone in their society or social circle would congratulate and applaud him for his seemingly increased fertility. Her expense because it was the most important condition for him to have a harem. It was not respected and now here they were.
If the child happened to be male, it would be lucky to be born of House Gremory. It still made her smirk that she knew for a fact that the child would not have her Clan Trait. It was what made Sirzechs, Romonus, and Rias deadly.
Without the Power of Destruction, the child sired by a commoner Devil like Marcina would probably not even have the Gremory Trait. She almost felt bad, but not enough.
"That is what I am saying, I am livid beyond imagination. We had one simple condition, I manage and gather women for his harem and he ensures they do not fall pregnant. But it seems that was not enough. Though, I should have kept it to myself."
He shook his head.
"No. This is wrong and he knows it."
Venelana leaned back which caused her large breasts to push against her gown. For once, Romonus did not have an interest in enjoying the sight. Venelana covered her eyes as she remembered the birthday ball.
"'Love of my life, dance with me? Fucking asshole. He will probably announce it soon to the family anyway. It's been just a month since your birthday and he springs this news on me now. After saying that to me? And I feel for it hook line and sinker."
Romonus waved his hand and formed a chair next to her. He sat down and leaned over to rest his head on her shoulder. She appreciated the gesture that her son was here to comfort her.
"Don't blame yourself, Mom. I always wondered how you felt about Father's harem. I guess you weren't on board?"
Venelana's purple eyes began to grow wet as she wrapped her arms around him. He returned the embrace as she vented to him.
"I just grew used to it. When I married him he didn't have a harem. But 150 years into our marriage he asked me permission to have a harem. I did not agree to it at first, but I relented after he kept asking for the next 10 years.
I allowed him to have 5 at first, but then it became 10. Now the number is almost 200. I have grown overwhelmed and sick with him as it seems he has less and less time for me. I know you don't care, but the last time we were intimate was 12 years ago.
That was how you were born. For a time I was beginning to question our love, but the dance we had seemed to awaken old feelings. I thought he remembered our vows and I felt like the young women he married. Turns out, I am just a fool."
He held her tighter as he finally heard her true thoughts.
"How long have you felt this way, Mom? You should have said something sooner."
Venelana smiled in the firm, but gentle hold of her secondborn. It had been long since she had received even this from her husband.
"For the last 400 years. I held solace that I was the only woman he had children with, but now even that is lost to me. Marcina that whore. "My one FUCKING CONDITION and they FUCKING BROKE IT!"
Waves of Power of Destruction surged from her destroying everything it touched. She held him even tighter, but as Bael descendent, he was immune to the effect. The chairs they were sitting on were safe, but everything else began to crumble.
"I didn't know you felt this way. I will be on your side, always."
"Thank you."
He just held her tighter as she wanted to reduce her office to ashes. However, Venelana calmed herself as she didn't want to affect his view of his Father.
"Don't hate your Father because of me. This is my burden as a Female Devil we suffer in silence. Romonus, I know you want a harem. When you do decide to get it harem, don't follow the same route as your Father.
Appreciate every single one and don't neglect their hearts like he has mine.'
He nodded.
"I promise."
She leaned over and rested her head against his. As they shared this moment he asked her a question he had.
"What will you do Mom?"
She sighed.
"What can I do? I am not Hera."
He chuckled as that was true. His Mom was far better than the goddess of marriage who gets cheated more than anyone else.
"True. Should I put some pressure on Father? Despite his status, he is quite weak. Maybe place an impotence curse on him for a decade?"
Venelana giggled as that sounded fun.
"Teach me the ritual, but don't bother. I could fold him like a twig with a finger if I wanted. Don't forget young man, I am and have always been the strongest woman born to Clan Bael. Your talent came from me, your Father just provided the Gremory Trait to you."
Venelana leaned in and kissed his cheek.
"Come on, teach me that spell. He will learn not to piss me off."
He smiled as he pulled out his journal and flipped the page to a very mean curse to the male kind. The Impotence Curse was made by a witch when her husband cheated on her. She did not remove this curse for the rest of his life and the poor wizard was driven mad.
When he showed Venelana the curse, her face pulled back into a very happy smile.
"Did MacGregor teach you?"
He nodded.
"He taught me many spells even ones you would not think would come in handy. This one is apparently a good prank one as it can be broken by the caster whenever."
She spat on the idea.
"I won't release him until 20 years have passed. I will show him."
This would not hurt his Father other than his pride so he happily taught his Mother the curse. As she learned it he could not help, but notice how beautiful his Mother was. The way her pretty face looked when she focused on the book, the way her dress pulled attention to her enormous breasts that bounced with her movements.
He was forced to look away as she was far too sexy for her own good. How could his Father not please her first was beyond him. He just hoped she didn't notice the way he looked at her from time to time. But as if to inform him that she did she let one of her breasts press against his arm.
Romonus did not let it slip he liked that, but she looked quite happy to tease him. Incest was very common among their race and these 'taboo' relationships between relatives became more common with age. One became more open to things like this especially when Devils got older.
In just a few short decades she would be 1,000 years old so why not be open to a few more things? She had time to spare and her son would be growing into such a handsome young man. She could afford to let things slip in this direction, Right? For now, this light teasing was as far as it got.
(Yes, Romonus has a big Incest Fetish. As for Venelana, well she is unsatisfied and her husband just broke her one rule.)
