Chapter 1014: Haruna's Stubbornness and Fear.

"How did it go?" Haruna asked, a slight concern visible on her face.

"Complicated," Victor was honest, "but necessary."

Haruna nodded and sighed in relief. She wasn't too worried, and she knew her Husband would always protect them and ensure that nothing bad happened to them. But her slight concern couldn't be shaken off. After all, Ophis was her beloved Niece, the Heir of her older sister—the only thing ensuring that her Sister lived.

"Before we fell into our decrepit state, we talked a lot with Hana. She's a good woman. It's sad she didn't grow up alongside Ophis," Morgana sighed. Though it had been a long time since she had thought about it, she still had memories of what had happened.

"We can't change the past... But we can change the future," Jeanne said, in a subtle tone that suggested something everyone was thinking.

After snapping out of her thoughts and hearing Jeanne's words, Haruna spoke seriously, "If you're going to resurrect my Sister, you must make her your Wife."

"I will support you wholeheartedly."

Morgana and Jeanne looked at Haruna incredulously. They didn't expect these words from her.

"What?" Haruna raised an eyebrow.

"Aren't you being too extreme?" Jeanne couldn't help but speak up.

"No, I'm not," Haruna denied. "We're talking about my Sister here. I'm dead serious."

"If Darling manages to revive my Sister, I won't allow my Sister to go through what she went through again. This time, she must receive the best, and I know very well that Darling is the best."

"You're exaggerating, Haruna," Jeanne sighed. "Vlad wasn't bad to Hana, you know."

Despite her grievances with Vlad, Jeanne wasn't blinded by emotions like Morgana. Even though she wasn't treated very well by Vlad, the same didn't apply to Hana.

Vlad had favorites, and Hana was definitely his favorite.

"I don't care," Haruna scoffed disdainfully, her voice laden with venom. "I don't want Vlad near my sister. That man is cursed and should stay as far away from her as possible."

"I'm sure if my Sister returns, and by some miracle she decides to go back to Vlad, I'm absolutely sure he'll somehow ensure her death again."

"Is he that cursed?"

"Damn, girl. You're roasting him hard," Morgana chuckled lightly in amusement. "Something I don't mind, of course, but you're having a very fantastical view of things. Do you think your Sister will die again with us around?"

"Somehow, I'm sure that could happen. It's Vlad we're talking about," Haruna remarked.

Jeanne and Morgana just shook their heads. Morgana didn't care about Haruna's opinion of Vlad; to her, her relationship with Vlad was in the past, so she no longer held a grudge against him, especially now that she had her own Daughter with Victor.

Jeanne, on the other hand, couldn't help but think that Haruna was being unfair in her words. It was not like she was defending Vlad or anything; she just didn't want Haruna's illusions to become too extreme. Therefore, she was being the voice of reason here and bringing Haruna back to reality.

Haruna looked seriously at Jeanne, "I may be exaggerating, I know that, but I don't care whether I'm exaggerating or not."

"I simply don't trust my Sister with Vlad. If she comes back to life, I will ensure she's completely protected, even if I have to lock her in a basement." Haruna was feeling very protective now, so she didn't mince words.

"So just be a good Sister and support her in everything while also protecting her, the same way I do with you, my little fox."

Haruna gently hugged Victor, resting her head on his chest, and then sighed. "Okay, I'll act that way... Maybe." Yeah, she definitely wouldn't.

Victor chuckled softly and advised her, "Even though sometimes I wish to keep you all just locked in my Inner World where you'd be safer, I know you'd hate me for doing that. I respect your free will and always support you, just as you do with me. It's through this healthy relationship that we've developed."

"Forcing someone's opinion onto another should only be done if that person is making a very grave mistake. But as long as she's not doing that, you should just help her as a good Sister."

Haruna understood what Victor was trying to convey. He was trying to prevent her from imposing her will on their Sisterly relationship. But she couldn't absorb it; she was too controlling and too afraid of losing her Sister again in the future. She preferred to have her Sister alive and hating her than dead where she couldn't hate her.

"Being involved with Vlad is a very grave mistake, so I'm right," she stubbornly stated.

Victor, Jeanne, and Morgana laughed.

"Let's put that aside for now," Victor said, stepping back from his Wives and placing his hand on his forehead. A white Energy formed in his hand, and then he gently touched the foreheads of his three Wives, allowing them to see all the events he had witnessed.

"Onee-sama..." Haruna spoke with tears in her eyes when she saw her Sister in the false-world.

"An Eldritch God of Infinity, huh," Jeanne remarked, looking to Victor for answers.

"I won't let the Primordials have influence over my Daughter," Victor growled. It wasn't like he had anything against the Primordials or anything; he was just extremely protective. After all, with his Daughter having the Divinity of a Primordial, the Primordial itself could make his Daughter its Herald. Victor would rather die than let his Daughters be under the influence of another Being.

"I agree. With our future plans, it's too risky. Our Daughters must be under our own protection. The fewer loose ends we have, the better for us," Morgana stated.

"I'll share these memories with the other Sisters," Morgana said as she left.

Jeanne looked neutrally at Victor and then sighed. "Darling, I'll support whatever you do. If you wish to oppose the Primordials in the future, that's fine by me, but... my brother..."

"I know, honey. I've thought about it already, and I wouldn't forget about that," he gently caressed her face.

"You know I wouldn't do anything to make you sad."

Jeanne rested her head against his hand. "I'm sorry for my selfish request."

"It's okay. I completely understand. Your brother went as far as Reincarnating a Guardian for you, not to mention helping me several times. He has my respect. If we do anything in the future, his protection is assured."

"Thank you, Darling."

"No problem." Victor chuckled gently, then stepped back with a serious look. "I need to go back; my Daughter is still going through her journey."

Since Victor arrived, he never took his eyes off Nero. If anything happened, he could be by her side in an instant. Within his world, he had absolute Authority.

"I'll go. I'll let Ruby know about Nero's progress. She's also very curious about what's happening," Jeanne said.

Victor nodded and disappeared.

Jeanne sighed as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She already knew Victor wouldn't do anything against her brother, but it was good to have confirmation straight from him. She felt safer this way. She looked at Haruna, who was still lost in the memories Victor provided. She smiled slightly and left Haruna to her own world; after all, no one would harm her here.

"I'll visit Ruby, and then I'll deal with the 'Guardian' my brother gave me," Jeanne narrowed her eyes. She appreciated the gesture, but she was already much stronger than the Guardian. "In defense of my brother, he never expected me to regain my Powers and become even stronger than before... I think I'll pay him a visit. It's been a while since I last saw him."
