Chapter 1078: Human? Yes, but not an ordinary one.

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Victor's Personal World Headquarters.

Stepping through the portal, Violet plopped down on the couch. "Ugh, walking at 4.5 meters tall is uncomfortable!"

"How can that be uncomfortable for you? Our bodies get used to it automatically, not to mention it's not as difficult as walking in Dragon Form." Velnorah spoke as she continued to look at the real-time reports of the first crop of Clones.

"I just want to complain, okay! Don't refute me! And why should we use this height anyway?"

"We are Gods, we are Superior Beings, and we should demonstrate that when walking among Mortals," Velnorah spoke.

"Still, couldn't we use our normal heights?"

"...When you think of a God from a Mortal's point of view, how do you imagine them?"

"Full of Power and strength?"

"... You're looking at them like a Vampire, not like a Human."

"Well, of course not. I was never Human." Violet snorted.

"Just accept The Emperor's orders; you'll understand eventually." Velnorah sighed.

Violet lifted her head from the couch and looked at Velnorah, her eyes glowing slightly violet, and soon she spoke: "I know why this is necessary. We must demonstrate that we are above mere Mortals and display an appearance that will make Mortals venerate us. It's no wonder that from the Mortals' point of view when they look at us, they can't see our face or our form."

Before, they didn't do this, but after an internal debate with the Pantheon Leaders and Ancient Goddesses, it was decided that this was the best way to present themselves to Mortals.

Before stepping into the portal, she spoke. "Before bringing the brats in, you should block this area from them."

"... That's a good idea." Velnorah had completely forgotten about this fact. If her Daughters saw this command center, they would definitely want to participate in everything, something that neither Victor nor the rest of them wanted to happen yet.

They had to give the appearance of being unattainable and Divine Beings. Although she was skeptical at first, this idea proved quite effective. As the number of worshipers other than The Emperor himself grew, even Violet gained more followers.

"... If you know, why did you ask?"

"I want to complain!"

Velnorah rolled her eyes. "Didn't you have something to do?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'll go get the brats." She snorted, jumped off the couch, straightened her clothes, and opened a portal to The Dream.

Before stepping into the portal, she spoke. "Before bringing the brats in, you should block this area from them."

"... That's a good idea." Velnorah had completely forgotten about this fact. If her Daughters saw this command center, they would definitely want to participate in everything, something that neither Victor nor the rest of them wanted to happen yet.

They would grow up in a controlled environment so that they would be prepared for the dangers out there. Fortunately, thanks to being such competent Beings, they could provide such efficient training that they would grow even more than if they experienced the real world.

The proof of this was 'The Dream' that gave them a lot of experience.

'Next time, I think I'll take them to the Tower of Nightmares at the highest levels.' Velnorah thought as she sealed off the area with her Powers.

Velnorah glanced at her Sisters who were sitting around a sphere of water. They were pointing their palms at the sphere of water and were quite focused.

Currently, the ones sitting there were Pepper, Lacus, Siena, Gaia, Jeanne, Aphrodite, and Mizuki.

"Pepper, lower the Energy a bit, and focus on the little Leviathans," Jeanne ordered.

"Aye."

"Aphrodite, use your Divinity and make them reproduce in this area," Jeanne ordered again.

"Yes."

Taking this chance to interrupt Jeanne. "How long until synchronization?"

"It'll take a while… At this rate, we can finish in 2 months."

"… When Darling comes back, I'll ask him to seal off this area," Velnorah spoke.

"That's a good idea." Jeanne agreed and soon went back to giving orders to her Sisters.

Velnorah stopped looking at Jeanne and focused on the Demonic ladies who were sitting and looking at a square Kingdom made of pure Miasma.

"How was the process of untying the Title of Ruler?"

"It went smoothly," Lilith spoke for Persephone and Aline, who were currently doing something similar with the group responsible for the Leviathans.

"It was as if he had expected this reaction. He didn't say anything and just accepted the return of the Title of Ruler." Persephone added.

"He didn't even show up in front of us. We just said we were going to give up, and suddenly, I didn't feel my Powers anymore." Aline explained.

"Honestly, I was thinking they would bring us trouble. I even prepared the soldiers… Not that they could do anything against a Primordial, but still." Vine said.

'Not to mention that such an action wasn't necessary. After all, I felt Darling watching us throughout the entire process… He's very overprotective.' She smiled lovingly.

"It's good to keep your guard up. The previous incident showed us that completely." Vepar said. "Few Beings might be capable of doing what they did to Darling, but it's always good to keep your guard up."

"Contingency plans are necessary, too," Helena added. "We shouldn't be caught off guard like before."

"You know it's hard to make plans against Primordials, right?" Aline said.

"Yes, but it's not impossible." Helena wouldn't give up.

"Although I agree with you, Helena. I suggest leaving this to our Husband... He won't let that situation happen again... You saw his expression, right?" Vine said.

"..." Helena remembered her Husband's expression that day.

"You don't need to think about that for now," Velnorah said. "Leave it in Darling's hands, and when he needs help, he'll tell us. For now, focus on the main objective."

"Yes."

These words convinced the other Demonic ladies and Persephone, but they didn't convince Helena.

Seeing Helena's look, Velnorah sighed and said: "Now that our Daughter Akasha is returning, you can discuss this further. For now, focus on the current work."

"... Yes, you're right," Helena said and soon returned to focus on Hell. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"We have to synchronize the Dimensions so that The Empire's System encompasses everything Darling creates... Let's link everything to us and create the perfect System."

"Back to work!"

"Yes!"

...

Nightingale, Vlad's Royal Castle.

"Talking so casually about breaking the Laws of Reality... As expected of The Emperor, I guess?"

Victor laughed: "Since the beginning, that's what I've always done... I've always broken the Rules."

"Immense luck, immense talent, immense work ethic and dedication... Putting these three factors together, will another Being like you be born?"

"Perhaps..." Victor thought about the Beings of the Higher Sectors, especially those Beings he heard in the conversation of the Primordials, especially about <Light> who received the Divinity Positivity, someone who was his opposite. "Someone abnormal like me, it's not the first time such an occurrence has happened in Existence..."

"But even among these abnormals, I am in a different category."

'It's all because of my Outer God Essence.' Essentially, everything in this Creation had a 'limit' that could be reached, but Victor had no such limit. As long as he didn't stop walking, his progress would never stop.

Vlad looked at Victor in silence for a few seconds. 'I should have killed him…' He sighed. 'How many times have I thought about this? Debating about such a subject is useless. Although it's annoying, he's someone I really respect; after all, thanks to him, I was able to fix my relationship with my daughter and not be the old Vlad that I was.'

'There's no point in thinking about the 'what if'. Things won't change, I should just keep walking as always.' Vlad thought. 'Maybe this next family I build, it will be different from the one I had before… Speaking of which, maybe I should look for another wife.'

As a King, he should have at least 7 wives. He couldn't pay attention to all of them before, but now that most of his problems were gone, he could afford it.

'There's the problem of my old friend's brother, but I have a feeling that Victor will solve that when the time comes.' He thought.

After thinking for 3 seconds, he made a decision. 'Yes, let's not increase my harem too much. I don't have the ability or patience to be someone like Victor. Four will be enough, and maybe from these four, a competent son will be born... Maybe a second Victor?'

'That would be interesting... Having someone talented like Victor as a son.' Vlad smiled. To maximize the efficiency of this 'son,' he thought about what to do.

The old monster wouldn't be satisfied with someone mediocre anymore.

Victor shook his head inwardly. 'This old man is falling back into his harmful habits again… I feel sorry for his future son.'

It was not like Victor didn't understand Vlad's thoughts. If he had a son, he would want him to be talented, but he wouldn't force his visions on his son.

If you haven't achieved something, and you want your son to achieve it for you, it only shows how pathetic you are.

'Well, why am I even thinking about that? It's not like I'm going to have sons.' Victor didn't want the situation Vlad's first son had to happen to him. Vlad might be too detached to care, but he did.

As someone who could control their bodies and Souls at the genetic level, Victor made sure none of his offspring were male. The reason? It was quite simple. To avoid unnecessary competition and trouble.

Victor spent 700 years of his development as a Vampire, and later, he became a Dragon, and later, he gained the memories of Gods who were once betrayed by their children.

Victor had an Empire, and if he had a son, that son would want his Empire or even his Wives. That's how Dragons worked.

'I could educate him, but instinct always speaks louder in the end, and I don't want to harm my Wives by killing my children.'

Although this wasn't the biggest reason he did this either. It was one of the reasons, but not the biggest reason... The biggest reason why he didn't have any male offspring was because he was too possessive. He was the God of Yanderes for a reason.

Some more attentive Wives understood this aspect, too, but didn't comment on it or bring up the problem. After all, Victor had more than 30 Daughters. How could a male child not be born from those 30 children? Simple, he didn't want it.

"Are you sure this will work?" Vlad asked Natalia.

Victor blinked, and upon waking up from his inner thoughts, he looked at the current discussion.

Natalia sighs: "Normally, this kind of action would destroy a body, no matter what kind of Being you are since we are dealing with one of the Primordial forces that is Time... But, the Alioth have bathed in this Energy since the beginning of their lives. This unique method will work with my father, who has such a unique situation."

Natalia snapped her finger, and a sofa appeared behind Vlad. "Just sit down, and wait patiently, I know what I'm doing." She looked at Vlad with a stern expression.

Vlad felt a chill down his spine as he was stared at by those eyes made of galaxies. "Yes..."

Obediently, he sat down on the sofa, but internally, he couldn't help but think how dangerous those eyes were. 'It's like she can see my entire past, what a horrible feeling.'

He had never felt this way with the other Alioths, perhaps because no Alioth was as strong as Natalia.

'A Race that is the fusion of a True Dragon and a Noble Vampire... You could say they are the next Evolution of Vampires.' Vlad thought.

As he thought about this, his eyes focused on Alexios, who was floating in an Energy cocoon created by Natalia. Watching this scene, the doubt he had in his head and forgot to ask came back.

"I forgot to ask, but why did you bring so many soldiers?"

"Test drive," Victor answered truthfully.

"Test drive?" Vlad repeated, confused.

"Yes." Victor nodded.

"..." Vlad didn't know how to react.

'Are they cars or something? What did he mean by test drive?' With just a little thought, Vlad understood that they were here just to see the air outside, but clearly, that wasn't the whole story.

And his thoughts weren't wrong.

[All the Clones are functioning normally, Darling. Their Souls are stable, as are their bloodlines and their thoughts. They can serve The Empire properly now.]
