Reality was in front of her; perhaps the most dangerous woman in the world was sitting on her throne, drinking her wine and still mocking her.
"What do you want, you third-rate bitch? I'm sure you have much better things to do than visit me." The woman growled at Valentina, who was quite pleased with her reaction. "Oh, don't be like that...
Or do you want to fight me after using a Dimensional Slash of that magnitude?" Valentina asked, her neon red eyes glowing intensely, increasing the tension in the air, as if a fight could break out at any moment, potentially destroying the entire city...
"Ah, cut the crap. I have enough problems to deal with, why are you here now? Or better yet, why are you on my continent? I'm sure you're very busy as well." She questioned as she paced back and forth. She had a lot to think about and strategies to plan.
"Ah, Siren... although I don't like you, I'm not entirely against your existence, you know?" Valentina said, and Siren's eyes narrowed, as if she was almost receiving a compliment... in her own way, of course... something Siren had never seen before, given that Valentina hadn't been pleasant to talk to in the last two hundred years...
"I was here looking for my loyal subordinates, for some reason, they chose to come to this place." Valentina said, stretching. She was a bit tired after hours of killing demons relentlessly. "You're weak." Siren said, making the whole atmosphere tense, just by hearing those words, the Valentina she knew could wipe out the entire Werewolf Kingdom with a single furious attack... But...
"I know that, don't worry." She said in a... serious tone? Siren didn't know how to react to this; in fact, who was this woman in front of her? She didn't resemble the impulsive Valentina Scarlet, the woman who devastates everything in her path without fear... The Imposing Godslayer... "You..." She murmured, seeing how Valentina seemed...
well?
Siren and Valentina had a history spanning years, hundreds of them in fact. She, Valentina, and Lyrianna were great rivals when it came to strength in the past era, they competed for the title of Strongest Woman in the World, and it wasn't just for show, they really had the power to back it up. But... why did this woman in front of her seem so fragile and gentle?
She didn't attack, use her aura to intimidate, or even insult her... on the contrary, she had even complimented her in her own way...
"You..." She murmured again, but continued, "You've changed." She concluded, and Valentina looked at her, not seriously, but calmly, controlled, less aggressive than before, just... "Love changes people, you know? I wish I had discovered that earlier..." Valentina said, leaving Siren completely shocked...
"L-Love?" She stuttered, of all the countless things she could hear from this woman, she said LOVE? Siren simply broke.
"Because of those childish games, Alexander is now in the sights of the most dangerous man I know." Valentina said, and this was no bluff. She knew many people, had lived through several eras, and was old enough to draw this conclusion. She knew deep down...
Dante was the most cruel and terrifying man she knew, a man who would do anything to stay alive and return as many times as necessary for the sake of his wives and loved ones. Her intuition told her this, even when she learned he was reincarnated, she had already thought about it. A transcendental who went through countless reincarnations; to endure so much required two things: Power and Will. Don't miss chapters on m v l e m p y r
Besides, she had already noticed something, something she didn't even understand... a sense of familiarity, not just between her and Dante, even with Morgana she felt familiar, so much so that their fights almost no longer existed, and this was something natural.
All because of a Man... or rather, The Man. Dante could no longer be taken merely as a lucky man who rose quickly; his potential was many times greater than hers, so much so that she had been feeling that soon, she would be nothing beside him.
Valentina was beginning to accept it... She knew her world wasn't of High Rank, not even an average one. Dante had already told her, this sector is a low one; what could she expect from an average sector? And a high one? She didn't know, but for some reason, she wasn't afraid of anything. All because of one Man.
So yes, Dante Scarlet is the most dangerous man alive, from the perspective of the Strongest Vampire in History.
"Does he still think about revenge after all that?" Siren questioned. She knew who Valentina was talking about; how could she not? Just mentioning the man made her angry eyes seem as infatuated as a schoolgirl's.
"It's not just about revenge for its own sake," Valentina said as she calmly stood up from the woman's throne. "It's about how much he hurt us." She spoke as if chanting, for now, reality was knocking at the door. "If it were just about him in an isolated case, he would accept it well, but he... well... After his return, he saw what his death caused.
The fact that we suffered for ten years is etched in his thoughts; he blames himself every day for that. So, in the end... He decided to follow the Supreme path, the Path of the Absolute." Valentina said, making Siren's whole body tremble.
"So, little wolf... Will you join us and spark a great Werewolf war, or will you swim against the current and drown in the wrath of a man who only loves his wives?" Valentina questioned, her gaze, for the first time in decades, making the entire body of the powerful woman that Siren was tremble with fear.
"Think carefully... After all... when my husband comes here, it will be a decisive war." Those were Valentina's last words before she disappeared into a swarm of bats.
"Think carefully..." The whisper reached Siren.
