Chapter 334: Pepper And Lacus training with her daddy?
“Vampire male problems aside,” Victor looked at Siena.
“Did you know about this?”
“???” Siena didn’t understand what Victor meant, she thought for a moment, and then an idea popped into her head:
“Are you talking about how special Clan Adrastea is?”
“Yes.” Victor looked back at the Valkyries. They were training while using their preferred weapons.
“Yes, I knew, but I’ve never seen it in person.” Siena said as she stroked Pepper’s head.
“Ehehe~.” Pepper buried her face in her sister’s chest, even though Pepper’s own was bigger than her sister’s.
“What are you talking about?”
“…?” Victor looked confused at Mizuki, who asked this sudden question, “Don’t you know that?”
“Know about what?”
“…The inquisition didn’t tell you, or does your organization not know either?” Victor asked aloud.
“I don’t think her organization knows… Few beings know about Clan Adrastea, and we want it to stay that way.” Siena spoke.
“Oh…”
“What are you talking about?” Mizuki asked with a frown on her face, she didn’t like being left out of the conversation.
“…You’ll find out later.” The two spoke with a small smiles on their faces.
“….” Lacus and Pepper made a deadpan expression as they looked at their older sister.
“Sis, are you being influenced?” Pepper asked as she pulled away from Siena’s body and looked her sister in the eye.
“Eh?”
“Where is that Bitch who hated all humans?” Lacus sighed.
“Oyy!” Veins bulged in Siena’s head when she heard what Lacus said.
“…Although, I think this is normal, after all, this man has the power to influence even a stone. I have no doubt that if he lives too long with a stone, the stone will start to act like a hooligan.”
“Pfft… That’s true.” Pepper commented, almost laughing.
“…I hope you guys are as excited in training as you are now.” Victor’s smile grew.
“!!!” A shiver ran down Pepper and Lacus’ spines.
“… About that, you won’t be hard on us. After all, we are the dear daughters of Scathach, right?” Lacus asked as Pepper hugged her.
“….” Victor just smiled innocently and didn’t answer anything.
“… Right?”
…
“GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!”
Pepper and Siena were running while Victor threw lightning bolts all over the place.
“Well, well, well! Why are you slouching now?!”
“This is not training!! This is just torture!!”
Lacus complained as she did her best to dodge, as, even with her speed, she felt it was hard to dodge these attacks.
“Training is torture!” Victor’s sadistic smile grew as he raised his hand while lightning began to gather in his palm, and soon he threw it towards Lacus.
“Heeeee!!” Out of sheer fear of being hit by that power, Lacus ran even faster, and suddenly her vision blurred.
Lacus turned into mist and appeared somewhere else, the transformation was much faster, and it didn’t take as much energy as she’d expected.
“…Huh?” She didn’t understand what happened as she looked at her hands, confused.
BOOOOOOM!
Lacus quickly turned around and saw the crater that Victor’s power had caused, and her face darkened.
“…” Victor showed a satisfied smile when he saw what Lacus did, as expected, the best training was this.
Lacus, Pepper, and Siena were trained by Scathach; that is, they already had the basics drilled into every fibre of their being. It was now just up to the women themselves to develop their power, and the best method for that was to put their lives at risk.
“You’re trying to kill us!!” Pepper was the one who yelled next.
“My mother won’t be happy to hear that her daughter was killed by her new Father!” Pepper’s scream echoed throughout the venue.
“No excuses! Now, run, my little rabbit!” Victor created a spear of fire now.
“…” Pepper’s face darkened.
‘He is really trying to kill me!’ She screamed internally.
“…Eh?” The valkyries that were training suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground.
“Cough, cough, cough.” Mizuki, who was drinking tea, coughed violently.
“Is he that woman’s husband…?” Alexa spoke in disbelief.
“That must be a lie… There’s no way a man could like that Old Monster…” Dorothy’s face darkened.
“Oyy! Don’t say that about our Master, what if she hears!” Martha, a woman with brown hair and light brown eyes, said. She was the same height as the other girls.
“….” The women’s faces darkened in fear. When talking about Scathach, it was really possible that that woman would overhear them. After all, they would not doubt that woman’s hellish ears.
“B-But, it’s just unbelievable that that woman got such a… beautiful husband…” Dorothy’s face turned a little red.
“It might be a lie, you know?” Juliet spoke, she was the one with long blond hair and white eyes.
“But it was her daughter who said it!” Dorothy spoke, and soon the girls started talking to each other about this topic.
“Are you okay?” Siena asked Mizuki who was beating her chest.
“Y- Yeah.”
Catching her breath, Mizuki looked at Siena, “Why aren’t you training?”
“Victor said he would train me personally when he finished training my sisters.” She replied calmly with a defeated smile. Even though she didn’t like training, she knew she couldn’t run away anymore.
“…” Mizuki looked at Victor, who was floating in the air, throwing several spears of fire and lightning at the girls who were running for their lives.
“…Good luck…” Her face darkened slightly, and she said, “Good luck.” And then she went back to drinking tea that she had brought from the human world.
Knowing that she was going to spend a lot of time in the Vampire world, she took a lot of food and supplies. That was also one of the reasons why she was separated in a carriage by herself, she simply brought a lot of things…
“Run, Run, my little bunnies!”
“Victor, I swear to god I’m going to tell my Mom about this!” Pepper complained.
“Make yourself comfortable, I have her permission.”
“From your mother’s words, she said I could do whatever I wanted to you as long as you got stronger.”
“….” Pepper’s face darkened. She knew he had her mother’s permission, considering that Victor couldn’t kidnap them without Scathach’s permission.
But… But… BUT!
She didn’t know she had been sold!!
Tears started to fall down Pepper’s face:
“WHAAAA!” She started to cry.
“Sigh…” Victor stopped his attacks and appeared in front of Pepper.
“Hey, hey, don’t cry, okay? This is also for your own good.”
“… Fuee?” Pepper looked at Victor, who placed his hand on her head.
“What would happen if you encountered a much stronger enemy and Scathach or I weren’t around?” He asked as he pet Pepper’s head gently.
“You sisters need to be strong to defend yourselves.”
“…But no one has the balls to attack Clan Scarlett-.”
“You can’t possibly believe that to be the case.” Victor said sternly as he looked at Lacus.
“Look at the events that happened with Clan Snow and Fulger.”
“Evil people were trying to destroy the Clan leaders.”
“….” Lacus was silent.
“…” Pepper visibly shook as she imagined a strong enemy attacking her when her mother wasn’t around.
“I feel like the future is going to be a lot more dangerous than it is now, and you guys need to be able to defend yourselves…” Victor stopped stroking Pepper’s head and started backing away.
“Scathach shares my concerns. So, because of that, she allowed me to take you to this territory. Training with me and fighting monsters would be a form of training that would help you three improve even more.”
Victor turned to the girls and smiled gently, “Don’t worry, you won’t die as long as I’m around.”
“…Vic…” The two spoke at the same time, they finally understood their mother’s and Victor’s concerns.
The problem was…
‘He couldn’t have said that from the start! He’s as bad as my mother in terms of communication!’ Lacus felt quite frustrated now.
Victor snapped his fingers, and a pair of gloves appeared in Pepper’s hands.
“…?” Pepper looked at her hands, and soon her smile grew when she saw her gloves.
Victor createdtwo daggers and threw them to Lacus.
“Your training, and my training is going to be about weapons.” Victor lightly stomped the ground, and suddenly the entire training area became a field of ice.
Slowly, several ice weapons started to be created from the ground, and soon the field became a place where there were thousands of weapons, it even looked like a weapons graveyard.
“Scathach taught you not to rely on just one weapon, correct?”
“Yes, she said that if I lost my dagger on the battlefield, my fists would be my only weapon left.” Lacus was the one who answered.
“That is true.” Victor felt confused for a few seconds, after all, that was not the lesson that Scathach had given him.
‘Why didn’t she tell them to use other weapons?’ He thought for a few seconds but soon understood why: ‘They’re not like me, huh.’
The safer option was to use a weapon you were confident in than a weapon you were not.
“But… This only applies to master level beings like Scathach. If you’re fighting minions, any weapons, or weapons you find on the ground are usable, even a log or stone.”
“If you don’t have that available, use your claws.” Victor raised his hand, and his hand hardened and long claws appeared.
“Scathach has already taught you the basics, I will only hone your battle senses. It’s up to you to develop yourself in the future.” Victor wanted to teach the girls to be more flexible on the battlefield.
Victor raised his hand and grabbed the handle of a weapon close to him. He looked at the weapon he’d picked up and saw it was a Halberd.
This training was also training for Victor himself. He wanted to know how to use all existing weapons on the battlefield, so that if necessary, he could change weapons at will on the battlefield.
He swung the Halberd back and forth, trying to understand the scope of the weapon. After getting a feel for it, he looked at the girls with his eyes glowing blood red.
gulp.
“….” The two swallowed hard.
And seeing this scene, Lacus couldn’t help but think of the first time she’d fought Victor: ‘Before I even knew it, this man overtook me and became a terrifying existence.’
“Let’s dance.”
With a step, Victor suddenly appeared next to Lacus, swinging his Halberd and cutting towards Lacus, who was taken by surprise.
However, Pepper suddenly appeared, defending against Victor’s attack with her fists.
Tink!
Sounds of two metals colliding echoed out from their position.
“Oh? I like that expression.” Victor’s smile grew.
“Shut up.” Pepper spoke, a little red in the face. She parried Victors strike with her gloves, and stomped on the floor violently.
A crater in the shape of a spider web rippled out on the ice floor from where she stomped, and soon water began to spurt out of the ground.
Soon every inch of the training ground that was previously ice, turned into water.
“Pepper…” Lakyus started.
“Don’t lose focus.” However, Pepper suddenly spoke with a serious face. She didn’t even look like the little girl who was crying earlier.
She assumed a martial arts stance, and as if surfing on the water, she approached Victor at high speed.
She seem as though she was prepared to attack Victor’s chest, but instead of doing so, she crouched to the ground, spinning herself around, as she attempted to trip Victor up with a leg sweep.
Victor jumped slightly to avoid Pepper’s maneuver, however, that proved to be the wrong decision.
Pepper’s smile grew as the water enveloped her entire body, before rushing towards her fist. Using the momentum of her spin from before, she attacked Victor who had yet to touch the ground from his jump to evade.
Victor quickly defended.
BOOOOOOOOOM!
A crash was heard as Pepper’s water fist hit Victor’s Halberd.
“Pfftt… HAHAHAHAA~!”
‘And to think that the power of water could be used like that.’ Victor thought as he laughed in amusement.
A mist appeared behind Victor, as Lacus emerged with her daggers in hand, thrusting out at blinding speeds to shred Victor apart.
Cut, Cut, Cut.
Victor’s body was cut several times in that millisecond… At least that’s what Lacus thought had happened.
She returned her gaze but was shocked when she saw his body was undamaged.
“If Countess Annasthashia Fulger considers herself the fastest woman alive… It wouldn’t stand if I were considered slow in front of my dear wife, right?” Victor laughed.
“….” A clash fell between the Valkyries and Mizuki.
‘Really? Her too!?’
“Fucking monster.” Lacus laughed.
‘And to think that he dodged all those attacks in that awkward position.’
“Thanks for the compliment.” Victor spoke with a smile on his face as he made an attack towards Lacus.
Lacus becomes mist again, and appears alongside Pepper.
Victor fell into the water.
“Let’s continue.” Pepper pounded her fists together with a big smile on her face as the water around her exploded.
“It is clear.” Victor spoke as he dropped his current weapon, and created two ice gauntlets.
Soon the water around Victor started acting strangely, Victor strikes a martial arts pose, and as if it had a life of its own the water began to surround him.
“…I forgot you could use that too…” Pepper muttered as her smile broke.
“This is unfair! Your existence is unfair! You are using HACKER! Somebody call the ADM!”
“Hahaha~. The ADM was fired for a long time for stress at work, he couldn’t stand me.”
“…Then it’s up to me to kick him out of this game.” She spoke while striking a martial arts pose similar to Victor’s.
“Let’s see if you can.” Victor’s smile grew, he felt that this was a good opportunity to train the power of water that he had never touched.
‘If I could control the liquid from the opponent’s body, wouldn’t I be invincible? Victor could already do this with the power of blood, but it was quite limited to one opponent, he didn’t have enough control in his blood control to do it on multiple opponents.
And the power of blood was not flexible like that of water, he felt that if he trained enough, he could control any liquid as long as it had water, and on Earth… a planet that is mostly made up of water. , wouldn’t it be a natural disaster?
Just control the seas, and create tsunamis and voila, a country has been destroyed.
“Lacus cover me, and don’t try to cut him, with his reaction speed, he will just dodge, try to attack his blind spots with lunges.”
“…To think I would listen to my little sister’s orders.”
“Are you angry?”
“Far from it, it’s fun to watch you grow.”
“…” Pepper’s cheeks turned a little red: “Just do it.”
“Okay~.” Lacus turned to mist.
