Chapter 843: Sowing chaos in a dog fight.
Eventually, not only Siena, Lacus, and Pepper entered The Tower, but all the girls present who were not at the level of an average God entered.
Not only them, even the more experienced girls like Rose, Natashia, and Agnes also entered The Tower.
Even Victor's Demon Generals entered The Tower along with Lilith, and Morgana's two daughters, who seemed more determined than usual, especially Elizabeth, who had fire in her eyes.
When Victor asked Morgana about these changes, his Wife explained that Elizabeth learned of her Origins as a girl born not in the usual way but through the Power of Vlad and Morgana.
"I see... I presume she didn't react well?"
"Surprisingly... She reacted very well, she even seemed not to care that she was born only to be a sacrifice."
"... It was as if she had already expected it," Morgana commented with a difficult expression.
She expected many things, but not her daughter's lack of reaction.
Victor pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps this thought arose from her existence as Royalty."
"What do you mean?"
"As the daughter of Vampire Royalty, was she prepared to be married off to other Beings to create alliances?"
"I don't think that's it. Despite Vlad's many flaws, he's very loving towards his daughters and often spoils them."
"Maybe she just didn't care? Or..." Victor looked at The Tower, specifically at Elizabeth, and he felt his anger rise.
"She's very good at hiding her emotions."
"..." Morgana just bit her lip and looked at The Tower with a worried expression.
Victor caressed Morgana's head. "Don't overthink it; most things can be resolved through conversation. Just give her time."
"Mm," Morgana nodded.
At that moment, two little girls approached Victor and held onto him.
"Father... We want to go too," Ophis said.
"Denied," Victor's response was instantaneous.
"B-But," Nero tried to protest.
"The Tower is not a kind place; it will target your greatest weaknesses in an attempt to make you overcome them," Victor crouched on the ground, creating a small hole due to his weight, but he didn't mind. He looked at Nero and Ophis with an extremely serious face.
"Are you ready for that?"
"..." The two fell silent.
Nero had a great unresolved trauma from her time being experimented on, and although this trauma had diminished thanks to Victor's presence and Ruby, it still existed.
Ophis gained a trauma when she was 'killed' in Japan. She may not show it, but she was deeply affected by that experience.
The Tower wouldn't be lenient; it would attack these weaknesses and force them to overcome them, even if they had to die hundreds of thousands of times.
The phrase "do or die trying" was not without meaning within that Tower.
"As long as you can prove to me that you're capable of taking care of yourselves no matter the situation, you won't be entering that Tower."
"..." The two lowered their heads.
Victor sighed and stroked their heads. "I know you want to get stronger and be useful, but there's a time for everything. You need more experience, more training, and time to learn more Techniques. You're still young, and you have all my resources at your disposal."
With such great support, it was not a matter of whether they would become strong or not but rather when they would become stronger.
"... If we can't enter... then we'll train," Ophis said with a serious look.
"... Very well," Victor agreed. "I won't go easy on you."
"Do your worst," Nero said with determination.
Ophis looked at Nero with wide eyes, wondering if her sister had suddenly gone mad.
Victor just smiled lightly; he would make her regret those words.
...
Since that day, Victor began training the two girls, and as promised, he made Nero regret her words. Victor's training was even more intense than before. Now that he had access to the Draconic Language, he could create a wider variety of training regimens that left the two girls exhausted and in pain.
And very hungry as well... This was where the 'key' to their training came into play: Victor's hyper-nutritious blood.
By combining the intense training regimen that led to extreme exhaustion with Victor's nutritious blood, the girls' performance skyrocketed.
"... If this continues, won't they have potential several times greater than my daughter?" Scathach commented as she observed this scene.
Like other Species, the early years of a Vampire's life were extremely important. Although they matured very slowly, early training had been proven to increase a child's potential.
Nero was a former Hybrid with Victor's blood inside her, and Ophis was a girl with 50% of a Progenitor's Blood. Combining this with their training and Victor's blood, they would become incredibly powerful in the future.
She looked at Victor and then at her own belly. 'Should I have another child?'
A warmth rose inside her, and her eyes suddenly filled with desire. She didn't know if she wanted a child now or not, but she definitely wanted to 'practice' the act.
'Ugh, these annoying desires,' she grumbled internally as she tried to regain control of her body.
During the time Victor was training his daughters, other girls like Leona and Natalia finally decided to enter The Tower.
Now, the only ones who remained outside were the Goddesses, especially because the other Goddesses, who were not related to Victor, were not allowed to enter that place.
It was a rule that made some of them, specifically Nike and Thetis, pout. However, most of them sighed in relief. After all, they were Goddesses whose specializations focused more on domestic matters that didn't involve fighting.
They were perfectly fine where they were, thank you very much. They didn't want to die countless times just to get stronger; they weren't crazy... In fact, if there was a method that could increase their strength, such as during a 'nighttime battle,' they would very much prefer that method, preferably with Victor involved.
BUT, that was a distant dream; The Wives of The Dragon Progenitor hovered around him like hawks, protecting him from any 'thot,' something that made it impossible for them to approach him.
Not to mention that they lacked an attribute that made Victor interested, and without that attribute, it would be incredibly difficult for him to pay attention to them.
Nevertheless, Victor wasn't unkind to them. After all, they were Blessing him with their Divinities and helping greatly in the Faction. It was only because of this that he allowed them to live on this planet, albeit in a separate location away from the women who were involved with Victor.
A clear 'hierarchy' was established with Victor at the top and his Wives just below. The Goddesses understood this and didn't question it, but... But...
WHY DID HESTIA have free access!?
She was not even a Lover or Wife of Victor!
This was something that some Goddesses couldn't understand.
If Victor heard these thoughts, he would simply respond, "Because Hestia is the Bestia."
Just like Anna, Hestia had free access to anywhere she wanted to go.
Another Goddess who had more privileges, even though she wasn't a Lover or Wife, was Tyche, The Goddess of Luck. She was one of the Goddesses that Victor 'acquired' in his Conquest of Olympus.
Yes... Just because she was The Goddess of Luck, her status as a slave was removed, and she became one of the mansion's Goddesses. She was clearly being spoiled; this minor Goddess even had a statue of herself.
The Greek Goddesses couldn't understand why The Blood Dragon Progenitor was giving so much attention to this minor Goddess.
But Victor was different; he could see a gem when he saw one. Unlike those short-sighted Gods, he was fully willing to invest in this Goddess.
Tyche herself didn't understand why she was being treated this way, but she didn't complain. She had everything she wanted and desired; her only job was to improve upon her Luck Divinity, something she had never thought about before but now had to because it was one of the 'requirements' that this fearsome Dragon had given her.
She dared not 'disappoint' this man; she clearly saw the consequences doing such a thing would bring her. Therefore, she was extremely focused on increasing her Divinity.
The reason for all this attention? Do we need to say it? Luck was an extremely USEFUL thing to have around. Because of this, just like Natalia, Aline, and Helena, who also had very useful skill sets, Tyche was close to Victor, constantly protected and watched over like a hawk.
Luck could not be seen; it was usually an inconsistent Power. But its effects on the general Aspects of Life were undeniable.
A perfect example of this was when Victor tried to 'automate' The Tower to recognize the Souls of his Wives and assist them without him needing to be present. This was a task that would be nearly impossible to accomplish, with a low chance of success. After all, the Soul was a delicate thing to touch. But... with Tyche's help, he managed to do it.
Somehow, The Tower functioned with a process that not even Victor fully understood.
Unlike his Human subordinate, who was 'extremely' lucky and caused those around him to experience misfortune, The Goddess of Luck had a more general effect and didn't cause damage.
Tyche became indispensable in this Faction. Victor even made sure to have several Shadow Demons protecting her, just as they protected Natalia.
This event with Tyche proved that if you were useful to Victor, your status would change significantly within the Faction. This heightened the desires of all the 'slave' Gods who were caught in the crossfire of the battle between Zeus and Kronos.
On the second day, when all of his Wives, except those who could transform into Dragons, entered The Tower, Victor received news from Samar.
With the help of Hassan, who had returned to Samar since Victor had no further use for him, Tasha attacked Volk, and conflict erupted.
Receiving this news from his spies in Samar, Victor didn't waste time.
"Scathach, Metis, come with me. Zaladrac, Jeanne, Aphrodite, Gaia, Nyx, continue to monitor The Tower and help the girls if there are any problems."
"Okay/Yes!"
...
Appearing in Samar, Victor was faced with the sight of two gigantic Powers clashing with each other.
"... It's incredible that even if you don't do anything, you can create conflict, Victor. It is because of this that the male Gods hate you, and sensible women call you the enemy of women." Scathach commented.
"..." Victor looked at Scathach in disbelief. He felt wronged. He didn't do anything, okay? Why was she talking like this was his fault? He was a saint! Even The Heavenly Father liked him.
If Scathach heard Victor's thoughts now, she would just roll her eyes at this man's brazen attitude.
'Speaking of The Heavenly Father, I promised him I would take him to Hell. I wonder if he forgot about it.' Victor still hadn't received any news of the device he received from The Heavenly Father.
'Well, I can talk to him at The Meeting of Supernatural Beings; it's not like I'm in a rush.' Victor thought.
Leaving the jokes aside, Victor extended his vision, and in the next moment, he could see everything that was happening in the city.
"Hmm… Aren't they really weak?" Metis spoke neutrally, and at the same time confused. She was trying to feel the Power of the two Beings, but they were so weak that she felt no threat.
Scathach looks at Metis, the Goddess who was already in her adult form, and achieved a curvaceous body that could rival Aphrodite's.
Even though she had the body of a mature woman, her face was still innocent but contained a certain 'wisdom'.
"This is normal, you are a Dragon that was born directly from the traces of my Victor's Soul, and the Soul of a Primordial Goddess of The Second Generation of Olympus." Although the original Metis wasn't a direct fighter, she wasn't exactly defenseless, she even fought in the Titan War.
Not to mention that the Ancient Goddess she had been couldn't compare to the Goddess she was now. They were on completely different levels.
"Hmm… I see, because of that, they seem so weak." Metis spoke.
"Although you feel this way, don't underestimate them. History is littered with examples of weaker Beings finding ways to defeat stronger foes." Scathach gave a warning like a stern teacher.
"Mm, I'm not that foolish, I was just surprised. I expected more from the Werewolf King and Queen."
"Interestingly, The Lykos Clan is not participating in the fight." Victor spoke suddenly.
His words made Metis and Scathach look where Victor was looking. Soon they saw Maya Elizabeth Lykos, The Matriarch of The Lykos Clan on top of a building with her entire Clan behind her.
Maya was completely different from what Victor remembered. She had Wolf Ears, a Wolf Tail, sharp claws adorning her fingertips, and her feet were replaced by savage paws.
She looked like a beastman straight out of a Medieval Fantasy Story.
'I see… This is the 'Elizabeth' blood, huh?' Victor thought.
With his eyes, he could clearly see that even her Soul had changed into the Form everyone was witnessing, proving that this was her True 'Form'.
'She has become severely stronger... I feel like she could fight the former Scathach now, and the fight wouldn't be boring...' Even though the increase was significant, for the current Victor, she was still... Incapable .
Victor disappeared along with Metis and Scathach, and in the next moment, they appeared near Maya.
"Unexpected."
Maya's instincts, as well as those of everyone present suddenly exploded in warning. They hurriedly looked towards the voice, and their faces darkened when they saw the three Beings.
Instinctively, they wanted to escape this place as quickly as possible. This wasn't a logical response, but a primal one. However, they also instinctively knew that they couldn't leave this place without these three Beings allowing them to.
Therefore, they could only stand frozen in shock.
"I thought you were going to help the King, Maya."
"...That voice...Victor?" Maya's sky blue eyes sparkled.
"Correct." Victor smiled showing his sharp teeth.
This exchange caused a stir among the members of The Lykos Clan, specifically the women.
The instinctive fear still existed, but upon learning who this Being was, and that he was related to The Lykos Clan, their fear was significantly diminished, and this gave space for other thoughts.
'Damn Leona! You are so lucky!' Bellatrix Lykos, also known as 'Bella', Leona's aunt thought enviously.
Incredibly, this same thought was also shared by all the women present, and even some men.
Even Maya herself was no exception. She looked at Victor up and down and bit her lip in obvious desire. Of everyone present, she was the one who was most affected. After all, she was more linked with her 'Wolf' side due to who she was.
Seeing such a 'superior' Specimen, seeing someone she 'respected' so much, with a level of strength that completely eclipsed everyone present on this planet, her instincts were going crazy.
"Grr… Control yourself, Wolf." Scathach growled as she instinctively spread her red wings. The surrounding weather became chaotic, it was freezing but at the same time sweltering.
Victor showed a smile. Seeing a possessive Scathach was always a pleasure for him. He couldn't count how many times he thanked the instincts of Dragons for making her more 'honest'.
These words brought Maya to reality, and she finally looked more closely at the two women near him.
