Chapter 693: Hierarchy and 700 Years of Acc.u.mulated Frustration.
Nightingale.
In a very s.p.a.cious room, Victor"s wives were present, Natas.h.i.+a, Agnes, Ruby, Violet, Sasha, Aphrodite, and Kaguya.
But not just them. Scathach, Leona, Eleonor, Jeanne, Morgana, Haruna, Bruna, Eve, Maria, and Roberta were also in the room.
Not counting a very anxious Natalia, a frowning Mizuki who seemed to be thinking about something, and Rose sitting calmly next to Eleonor.
The Scarlett Sisters, Pepper, Siena, and Lacus, were also here, playing cards with each other and Victoria Fulger.
In total, there were 26 women in that room. [A/N: d.a.m.n, I went overboard ... For G.o.d"s sake, I need to control myself.]
"He is coming?" Violet asked as she anxiously paced back and forth.
"Yes," Ruby answered.
"He is coming!" Violet practically screamed, jumping up and down.
"Yes, Violet. He is." Ruby answered again.
"Then why isn"t he here!" Violet snarled in fury.
"Calm down, Violet!" Agnes shouted in the same tone as her daughter.
"Don"t ask me to calm down, or I"ll get angrier, Mother! You know that!"
"I know, but calm down!"
"f.u.c.k this..." Violet began cursing a variety of insults, enough to make a sailor blush with embarra.s.sment.
"Hmm ... I want to ask something," Haruna spoke.
"What is it?" Violet looked at Haruna.
"Not to you, Violet-dono, but to Kaguya-dono."
"First, drop the formality; we are allies," Kaguya spoke in the same neutral voice, but it carried much more weight and authority than before.
Kaguya was the one who practically took over the functions of the Alucard Clan in Victor"s absence. The other Wives were too busy with their own problems. The Family, the new city, and the entire Amazon population were not easy things to manage. Even Ruby had to halt her personal projects and the alliance growth to help a few times, not to mention that the incidents where the Amazons got into trouble occurred quite often in the beginning.
Fortunately, Scathach was here. The saying, "What doesn"t kill you changes you and makes you stronger," was applied liberally.
Every time an Amazon got into trouble, Scathach would have a somewhat "deep conversation" with the offending party, which usually ended with the woman begging for mercy.
Thanks to this effort, the women began to behave, and some even began to change their mindset. Of course, they still didn"t like men, but now they didn"t go around trying to kill or enslave them.
While it was obvious that breaking an ingrained cultural way of thinking would take a long time. Fortunately, time was the resource everyone here had the most.
"Okay, Kaguya... Then why am I here?"
"I don"t understand the question," Kaguya asked confusedly.
"I mean, why am I here? I know we"re allies, but isn"t this a meeting between you and... Hmm..." Haruna didn"t know what to call Victor right now.
Should she call him the Demon King? Lord Alucard? His Majesty?
"Just call him Victor. He"s not really into formal things, and we"re not having a formal event here." Leona spoke.
"I agree with the Wolf here. Darling doesn"t care about that kind of stuff," Violet added, then she continued:
"Don"t you want to be here, Haruna?"
"... It"s not like I don"t... but isn"t it a meeting between him and his
"Wives"?"
"Don"t lump us together as his Wives!" Pepper screamed with a very red face.
Lacus and Siena just nodded in support of Pepper.
Mizuki, Victoria, Eleonor, and Natalia turned their heads away from the group and ignored them.
"...Huuh... Okay?" Haruna didn"t know how to answer that.
"Actually, that"s something I"d like to know too... Why am I here?"
Rose asked. She had even tried to leave Eleonor alone here, but the girls wouldn"t allow it.
Ruby, Violet, Sasha, Natas.h.i.+a, Agnes, Scathach, Aphrodite, and Kaguya looked at each other and nodded.
"Aphrodite, you explain. As a G.o.ddess of Love, your word has more credibility." Violet spoke.
Now it was the girls" turn. They narrowed their eyes when they saw the group acting strangely. Was something going on that they didn"t know about?
"I"ll get straight to the point. If you count the number of women who love Victor dearly and are potential future Wives, it amounts to 31 women."
"... Huh?" Some didn"t fully understand what Aphrodite meant, but those of them who were more insightful, like Morgana, Haruna, and Jeanne, quickly understood where this conversation was going.
"I think you"ve got the math wrong, Aphrodite. There are only 26 women here." Jeanne pointed.
"I"m counting the Demon Generals, Lilith, and the Dragon, too, of course."
Morgana and Jeanne"s faces trembled when they heard Aphrodite mention the Dragon and Lilith.
Lilith, they might understand, but the Dragon too? Of course, they understood that the dragon could take on a more Humanoid Form, but wasn"t that too outrageous?
"Darling is the most handsome, perfect, good-natured, responsible man there is," Violet spoke with an unshakable conviction that everyone couldn"t help but agree with. [Though it"s not like they thought otherwise.]
"It"s obvious that he can charm even a G.o.ddess. He did so with Aphrodite; what"s to stop him from doing the same with Lilith and the Dragon?"
"..."" Again, another argument they couldn"t dispute.
"W-Wait, are you counting us in this too?" Siena suddenly realized the numbers didn"t add up.
"Yes," Aphrodite said, nodding in agreement.
"Why!? We didn"t show any interest in him!"
"Oh please, your hungry gazes are as subtle as an angry griffin in a china shop." Aphrodite rolled her eyes.
The three sisters backed away, their faces even redder than before. - "Which is why your mother sold the three of you to Victor," Aphrodite spoke with a genuine smile.
"... Eh? HUH!?" The three looked at Scathach and Ruby.
"Don"t look at me; I"m not a part of this." Ruby snorted.

"As a mother, it is my right to want the best for my daughters, and Victor is perfect for you," Scathach spoke with a very serious look.
"But he is your Husband!" Siena pointed out.
"And Ruby"s too!" Lacus added.
"That makes it even better."
"... Huh?" Lacus, Pepper, and Siena thought they had misheard something.
"Since he is a man I"ve approved of, he will be perfect for you. And he is not my Husband! He has not defeated me yet!"
Natas.h.i.+a, Agnes, Violet, Leona, Kaguya, and Aphrodite rolled their eyes.
"Unbelievable... You sold off your daughters!" Siena screamed in horror.
"Oh, stop with the drama, Siena. It"s not like I haven"t heard you scream in your sleep: "Yes, Vic! Harder~. Stronger~-"
"Violet!"
Violet just stuck her tongue out at the furious and embarra.s.sed Siena.
"See? It"s not like you haven"t thought about it. Honestly, I still marvel at the fact that you haven"t thrown yourselves at him yet."
"That"s because we"re not as brazen as you are!" That was what the three sisters thought simultaneously, and these thoughts made them even more embarra.s.sed because they were practically confirming the obvious.
"Therefore, with my blessing, I approve. You can chase Victor."
"..." Pepper, Siena, Lacus, and Ruby never thought they"d hear their mother"s words permitting them to pursue a man who happened to be in a relations.h.i.+p with her as well.
"What a crazy world this is... It feels like I"m living in a Hentai." Ruby thought.
"W-Wait, when you did the math, you were including everyone here?" Eleonor suddenly spoke.
"Wasn"t that obvious?" Aphrodite asked with an expression that asked, "Are you stupid, girl?"
"..." Eleonor opened to say something but was cut off by Aphrodite"s following words.
"Or will you lie and say you don"t want this? Like Rose was just about to say?"
"I haven"t said anything yet!" Rose said, "And I"m an old woman-."
Agnes interrupted Rose, "b.i.t.c.h, please. Aphrodite is older than virtually all of Civilization-."
"Oyy!"
Ignoring Aphrodite, she continued, "Not counting Jeanne, who"s been around since The Universe was first birthed into existence."
Jeanne grimaced. It wasn"t nice to hear how old she was.
"You are practically a child in front of these two women."
Rose opened her mouth to argue but knew it would be a losing battle.
"Stop making excuses. We know about everyone"s feelings here."
Natas.h.i.+a positioned herself to get everyone"s attention.
"... Why am I here? I haven"t had enough interaction with Victor to start liking him. Yes, I find him attractive, hot, but-."
"The Family must stick together!" Natas.h.i.+a growled.
Victoria recoiled at her sister"s angry, obsessive glare.
"As my little sister, you will always have the best. I will not let some pig be your Husband."
Victoria looked to Sasha for help.
"Sorry, Aunty. But I"m with my mom on this one."
"Impossible! He is your Husband, you know?!"
"And my mother"s too. So that"s not a valid argument anymore."
"Ugh."
"But while I agree, I also don"t want to take away anyone"s free will.
So if you really don"t want anything to do with Victor, I"ll convince my mom so that you can leave, but this will be your only chance."
"Tell me, Aunty. Do you really not want anything to do with my Husband?"
"Tell me your real desires. Aphrodite will know if you lie."
Victoria swallowed hard and thought of Victor, then she thought of the "night battle" she"d witnessed, and her face flushed.
That memory was what satisfied the days when she got too stressed.
"...I am not particularly against this venture." She turned her face away and crossed her arms.
Sasha and Natas.h.i.+a flashed amused smiles.
"See? It"s easier just to accept your feelings and move forward. Does anyone else want to deny the obvious?" Violet spoke, then looked at the girls. Her gaze went from Morgana, Jeanne, Natalia, and even Mizuki.
When she saw that no one was going to back down, although some were embarra.s.sed, she spoke up.
"Now that the situation is clear, we must clean up this mess."
"Mess? What are you talking about?"
"I"m talking about the mess that is my Husband"s relations.h.i.+ps with other women."
"My Husband is a King now, the King of h.e.l.l, and The Leader of a Faction. He has more political and military power than Vlad now."
"In the future, if we follow Ruby"s plans, we need to enter into a political alliance."
"According to what the girls who were in j.a.pan said, the Leader of The s.h.i.+nto Pantheon, Amaterasu, "casually" suggested a marriage between her and Victor."
"... Are you really considering that, Violet?" Haruna narrowed her eyes. From the girls" postures, Haruna understood that Violet, Sasha, Ruby, Scathach, Natas.h.i.+a, Aphrodite, and Agnes were the women who led and organized the "harem".
Not to mention that Violet was the "Leader" of them all.
"If it gives us more power in the Supernatural World, then yes."
