Chapter 506

Chapter 306: The three countesses and the clan treasures.

Some hours later.

A portal appeared in front of Vlad's castle, and soon Victor, Nero, Leona, and Ophis exited the portal.

"Thank you Natalia."

"Lord Victor, please don't provoke anyone. And wait for Lady Agnes and Lady Natashia. I will go get Scathach now."

"Okay~, don't worry."

"Ugh... That doesn't give me any confidence." Natalia muttered something that was overheard by Victor, but he completely ignored it.

"Kaguya, Maids, don't let your master cause chaos."

Several red eyes appeared in Victor's shadow, and Natalia could hear all the maids' voices together:

"Impossible."

"...."

"If you want to stop something, just hurry up."

"Ugh, okay." Natalia opened another portal and went through it…

"Fufufu, why is she acting like this? I won't do anything~."

"...." The maids were silent, and it was obvious that they didn't believe Victor at all.

But unbeknownst to them, Victor wasn't really planning on doing anything, he has no enmities with Vlad right now, and Ophis is also close by.

"...So this is the vampire king's castle." Leona commented.

"Is this the first time you've seen it?"

"Yes."

Victor looked at Nero, who was strangely quiet, and asked:

"Nero?"

"Hmm?"

"What problem?"

"Is nothing."

"I just thought this castle was necessarily big... Last time I was here, I didn't see many people."

"Mm, agreed. Very Big, annoying…" Ophis nodded several times.

"...Well, that's a symbol of power, this castle has been there since the creation of Nightingale, so it's something more symbolic." Victor replied.

"Oh..."

"Anyway, let's get going."

"...Wait, Vic."

"Hmm?"

"Are you sure I should come in?"

"Of course, no one will touch you while I'm around."

"Humpf, I'm not weak. I'm not talking about that." She snorted with a slightly red face.

"Get used to it, I have this attitude with Scathach too."

"…really?"

"Yeah~, although I don't say it out loud, or she'll get really pissed off."

"I can imagine that."

Worrying about the safety of the strongest female vampire? Huh? Only Victor is capable of this because, from what Leona understands, Scathach is on the same level as the leaders of Samar's Clan Alphas.

'I think she can handle two or three leaders at once? She tried to make a comparison but didn't know how to do it, she never saw these leaders, but if they were as strong as her father, she could say it would take 3 werewolves using all their power to make the woman fight seriously.

While Leona was lost in her thoughts, she unknowingly entered Vlad's castle and stood before the man's throne.

"Hey, old man, I came to visit." Victor raised his hand in a casual gesture.

"..." Vlad, who was sitting on the throne, opened his blood-red eyes, and a small imperceptible smile appeared on his face when he saw his daughter.

"Ophis, you're back..."

"Mm." She nodded.

Soon Vlad's gaze went to the rest of the group, and the moment he set his gaze on Leona.

Leona felt an instinctive sense of danger.

"Grrr." The hair on her body stood up completely, and hair began to appear on her arm, sharp claws appeared, and her teeth became sharper, while her eyes glowed a dangerous neon blue.

"..." Nero looked at all this with a curious look. It was her first time seeing this, after all.

"An Alpha werewolf, huh…"

At this moment, Victor appeared between Leona and Vlad's vision.

And his face wasn't pretty at all.

"Vlad, what do you think you are doing?"

"Hmm? I did nothing?"

"You and I both know that's not true." Victor's eyes glowed slightly blood red.

"...Are you hanging around with werewolves now, Alucard?"

"I walk with whoever I want, when I want, and whenever I want."

"That's not your problem."

The two men's eyes began to get more intense as the air around them was shaking as if the atmosphere itself was about to break, while Vlad's servants nearby were covered in a cold sweat.

'That little bastard got stronger again.' Vlad narrowed his eyes.

"...Father." The moment Ophis's voice sounded, all the air of danger, all the shaky atmosphere, everything was back to normal.

Victor and Vlad looked at Ophis.

"Tsk, don't bring werewolves to my castle, Alucard."

"That's not for you to decide."

"Of course it is, the castle is mine!"

"My house, my orders."

"As far as recorded, the castle is a Nightingale heritage site. It is not yours." Victor gave a shitty smile.

"The castle, the throne, this whole place is just symbolic."

"That is, it is a public area."

"... Fallacies."

"...." Victor just remained silent as he smiled.

"Anyway, don't bring werewolves into my castle—."

"January 1, the year 1200. Is this date familiar to you?"

"...." Vlad opened his eyes slightly.

"That was the day the werewolf king, Volk Fenrir, walked through those doors at your invitation in a secret meeting."

Now was the time that Leona and Nero opened their eyes wide.

'Did the king come here?' Leona thought as she looked at Victor's back with a hot gaze.

'He really is reckless, openly defying the king just for me...' Unconsciously, she approached Victor and held his shirt in a very gentle gesture.

"...How you-... Oh, of course, you would know." Only a few people knew about this meeting, and those people were Scathach Scarlett and Adonis Snow.

A meeting that Adonis attended in the shadows to use his 'sight' in Vlad's favor.

"If you can invite a werewolf to this place, why can't I?"

"I am the goddamned king, Alucard. I can do whatever I want."

"...And?"

"........" The two face each other again, but this time nothing happened.

'Tsk, damn the day I allow this man to use that name.'

As proclaimed at the time, Alucard means the opposite of Dracula.

A declaration that Victor was the opposite of Vlad, and a clear declaration that he was his equal, a declaration that he would not bow his head so easily to Vlad.

Step, step, step.

The two men stop staring at each other and look toward the entrance.

And seeing who was coming, Victor's smile became kinder.

Footsteps are heard, and soon a group of women appears.

Starting in the corner was a beautiful woman with long white hair. She was wearing black pants with a violet and white dress and holding to her chest as if it were a precious item was the blade of Fafnir, a sword made from the remains of a fire dragon king.

Agnes Snow, the leader of the Snow Clan.

Then a woman with long red hair, wearing her characteristic armor, holding a completely red spear behind her, a spear that was her own design with thousands of runes written across the spear.

A spear that was created thanks to her knowledge of runes, a spear made by her, exclusively for her.

Named after Gae Bolg, a name given by the very witch who was once her master, the witch Dun Scaith.

Gae Bolg is the treasure of Clan Scarlett, a spear that only someone who has reached the Master's realm in both spearmanship and runes can wield.

Scathach Scarlett, the leader of Clan Scarlett and the strongest female vampire.

The next woman had long golden hair, and she was wearing a completely black dress with small golden details. She had a black choker that had a golden jewel in the center, and unlike usual, this dress seemed to be created in search of mobility.

At the woman's waist were two golden daggers that, like the spear of Scathach, had small runes which contained great power.

Taranis, the ancestral spirit daggers, a treasure that was left by Carmila Fulger, the mother of Natashia, for her clan.

These women, Clan leaders, and countesses were the strongest force in the Nightingale, the women who controlled the economy, domestic and foreign politics, and had great influence in the army.

The three countesses of Nightingale.
