Chapter 785: He's here.

"Darling... I thought you only wanted Tasha's people and The Lykos Clan."

"Yes, you're right, Roxanne."

"Then why did you incite Tasha to go after her Throne?" Roxanne asked as she floated behind Victor.

Victor chuckled gently and stroked Roxanne's head. "Silly girl, I didn't say that with the intention of her reclaiming the Throne for herself. I merely said that to awaken her sense of pride."

"All my words were meant to incite those feelings within her. After all, it must be frustrating, isn't it?" Victor looked at the night view of the City with a small smile on his face.

"To have everything you helped build taken away from you overnight." His hair fluttered in the wind, and his violet eyes gazed at the City as if seeing much more than just the chaotic yet beautiful landscape.

"I understand... But it's not just that, right? After all, you wouldn't work so hard for a Nation you don't care that much about..." Roxanne smiled lightly. "You're repeating the same situation that happened with Jeanne and Morgana." As someone connected to Victor, Roxanne could see far beyond his words.

She knew very well that the main reason Victor did what he did so far was something else. Yes, all the reasons he mentioned were not lies, but the main reason was to help a good woman flourish to her full potential.

Why did Victor fully support Violet, Ruby, and Sasha in everything they sought to achieve, even when it seemed completely inefficient at times?

Because that was what they wanted to do, what they desired to do. And therefore, he supported them. He did the same with all his Wives. Only when someone pursued their own goals did that person truly shine.

Jeanne and Morgana seemed lifeless to Victor when they first met him, and it was only by helping them find their true selves that they became "good women."

The same case applied to Tasha. She'd completely forgotten who she was because of her responsibilities as a Queen and her relationship.

She restrained herself. She restricted her own potential in the name of society. All Victor was doing was helping her unleash that potential.

To Victor, the story he read in that book about a wild Goddess called The Beast Monarch was much more interesting than the current Tasha.

"Haah... What kind of person would destroy a marriage because a woman hadn't reached her full potential?" Roxanne sighed.

"That's a grave accusation, Roxanne... I didn't destroy anything; I didn't even get involved."

"Yes, my presence may have triggered many things, but essentially speaking, I did nothing. It's not my fault if people can't handle my presence."

"Well, your presence is simply too significant to be ignored, Darling." Roxanne chuckled lightly.

"As I said before, that's not my problem."

"Not to mention, it wasn't me who decided to betray Tasha and have children outside of marriage, nor was it me who hid the existence of those children. It wasn't me who was so incompetent that I couldn't govern properly or behave like a true Monarch in front of another Monarch."

"All of this is Volk's doing. I'm merely reacting to what Volk did."

"Then making all of Maya's husbands submit to your presence was their doing?" Roxanne pointed out an incident that occurred while Maya was showing Victor around the city.

"That's an entirely different matter, my dear." Victor rolled his eyes. "It's not my fault if they are intimidated by my presence."

"I will not restrict myself because of strangers. I will do what I want, when I want, wherever I want. Just as it has always been from the beginning."

"All hail The Demon King of Tyranny," Roxanne spoke with a grand gesture and then laughed. "It was this attitude that earned you that Title, my Husband."

"If exercising my will makes people call me a tyrant... then so be it... Let them call me whatever they want. Let them complain like a flock of sheep because, in the end, it won't matter, after all..." Victor and Roxanne's bodies slowly began to disappear in black smoke.

"The will of The Demon King cannot be stopped."

...

Victor appeared in front of The Lykos Clan mansion in his Regular Form, dressed in an entirely black suit.

As soon as he entered the Mansion, he heard Maria's voice.

[Master, all positions have been secured.]

[Good work, Maria... Maintain your position and await further orders.]

[Yes, Master.]

Victor walked through The Lykos Clan mansion as if he owned the place. None of the Werewolves present dared to look him directly in the face, and those who did instinctively felt a fear that paralyzed their entire Being. It was as if they were staring at a predator at the top of the food chain.

A Dragon.

Looking at this crowd of white-haired men and women, Victor thought that The Lykos Clan was indeed populous and that, unlike the Noble Vampire Clans that accepted other Noble Vampires through a Clan Acceptance Ritual, everyone here was truly one family related to each other.

'Rather than Wolves, they're more like rabbits,' Roxanne laughed.

'Well, Wolves are more fertile than Vampires, at least the weaker ones.'

It was a universal rule that the stronger you were or if your Race had a long lifespan, it was very difficult for those individuals to reproduce. If an individual was from a long-lived Race and was strong, it was practically a rarity for them to have children.

Because of this, the number of Dragons was so few. They were not only hunted for their highly valuable bodies, but it was also very difficult for them to reproduce, which rendered their species practically extinct.

Even Victor himself had only seen one True Dragon so far, and that Dragon was Zaladrac. He didn't even consider the Youkai Dragons as True Dragons since they were more Youkai than Dragons.

Victor looked up and spotted Maya. From her accusatory look, he deduced that she must have already heard about what was happening between Volk and Tasha.

Victor smiled internally as he realized that things were progressing quite smoothly.

Contrary to what Victor thought, Maya wasn't solely focused on Tasha and Volk's affairs. She was also admiring the sight before her.

The Lykos Clan, a Clan of Wolves with quite the delinquent-like attitudes, was instinctively submitting to a Noble Vampire. She had never seen this sight with any of her husbands before.

Yes, she had seen this sight before, but it was she who provoked this reaction from her Clan, not someone else.

'As expected... He's a True Alpha,' Maya thought.I think you should take a look at

A True Alpha wasn't just respected and feared by Werewolves; they were someone respected and feared by all Races. Victor easily fulfilled that requirement, and you know what was the best part? He did it effortlessly just by being himself.

He didn't even need to pretend like most Alphas she had seen.

Maya made a hand gesture and asked Victor to follow her, but instead of following her, he turned to the right and completely ignored her.

A vein throbbed in Maya's head, but unconsciously, a small smile appeared on her face. Soon enough, she found herself following Victor.

...

"Natalia, my dear. You can proceed with the next phase of the plan and inform Vlad that my Maids have already prepared everything. Don't worry, Aurora won't interfere with your Powers."

"Yes, Darling," Natalia nodded, and seconds later, a Portal appeared beside her, where she proceeded to enter.

"... Darling, you really messed everything up as always," Leona pointed out.

"How rude; I didn't do anything. They did this themselves. And I would be foolish not to take advantage of the situation," Victor huffed as he sat on the sofa.

Leona wasted no time and quickly jumped into his lap, embracing him.

Victor chuckled gently and caressed her long white hair.

"Hehe, I missed this," Leona said as she hugged him tighter.

"So spoiled... I'm making you too accustomed to it."

"Humph, it's the Husband's job to spoil the Wife. And in return, the Wife will spoil the Husband too."

"Well, that's true," Victor smiled.

Victor glanced at Big Guy. "Vlad is coming; you know what to do."

Big Guy nodded, and slowly he began to disappear into pure Red Energy.

"Hmm~, that tickles, Darling. Why are you caressing my belly?"

Victor looked at Leona's toned belly. Despite having perfect abs that showcased her warrior's body, her body wasn't rigid; in fact, it was quite soft.

Due to Werewolves' physiology, she could control her body perfectly, and this effect was most visible in the muscles that she could make either rigid or flexible.

Victor also thought this was due to the "Elizabeth" gene he had heard about, a gene that further enhanced a Werewolf's aspects.

"Don't you like it? I can stop if you want," he spoke as he began to retract his hand.

In the next moment, all the muscles in Leona's body became rigid, and she grabbed his hand with a speed that caused a small boom around them. If his hand were a Human's, all the bones would have been pulverized.

"I didn't say that... Don't stop."

Victor smiled and continued to pamper Leona. Just a few minutes later, Maya entered the room.

"Demon King, can you control yourself? You're scaring everyone in my Clan."

"Humph, they should have already gotten used to my presence; I visit regularly, you know?" Victor wouldn't stop visiting Leona, even if she was learning about her ancestry.

"Don't expect the impossible; you're a completely different Being from the ones they are used to dealing with." Maya walked over to the sofa in front of Victor and sat down, crossing her legs. She glanced at Leona for a few seconds, and various emotions passed through her eyes, the main one being envy.

"Even my two most talented descendants dare not stay in the same space as you." Maya laughed as she thought of Bella and Connor, who seemed like two frightened cats, a behavior very different from their usual selves.

"As I said, that's not my problem. Besides, if they can't even handle my presence, they will never grow. It's for their own good," Victor pointed out.

"... That... Actually, that's a good point." Maya tried to counter what Victor said, but she realized that he was completely right in that regard.

After pondering a bit on this matter, Maya set it aside and got to the main point:

"Anyway, what are you planning to do with Samar? Volk's actions and the current situation, all of it has to do with you, right?"

"You overestimate me too much; this situation would have exploded sooner or later. I just happened to be the unintentional catalyst."

"... Well, that's true... But that doesn't mean you won't profit from it, right? What are you planning to do?"

"Help two good women reach their full potential," Victor neutrally replied as he continued to caress Leona, who sighed in a defeated manner upon hearing Victor's words.

Maya raised an eyebrow. She waited for a few seconds, but when she realized that no further words were spoken, she asked incredulously, "Just that?" She didn't feel like he was lying, so she was a little surprised by his words.

Victor smiled lightly at Maya. "Just that."

"... Really?"

"Yeah. You seem to think highly of the Werewolves, but my interest in this place is limited to your Clan, the Ancestor of your Clan, Elizabeth, the Goddess once called The Beast Monarch, and of course, Fenrir and The World Trees."

"I have no interest in this society at large unless it's for entertainment and recreational purposes." Victor had to admit that the mixture of various Eras in this society was quite amusing.

"Hmm..." Just as Maya was about to say something, a portal opened where Natalia had previously stood.

Natalia stepped out of the portal and said, "Darling, Vlad is here."

Maya widened her eyes upon hearing what Natalia said.

Victor stood up from the sofa along with a slightly irritated Leona for being taken out of her comfort zone. "Finally, the old man is here."

Victor looked at Maya and asked, "I'm going to do some things. Do you want to come?"

"... Of course." Maya wouldn't let such an interesting opportunity pass—cough, actually, she was doing it to observe Victor and his plans. After all, it was all for the safety of the Werewolves.
