Chapter 1080: Growing Imperial Domain
"I'm curious, Vlad."
"... What?"
"Why did you thank him but not me?" Natalia narrowed her eyes. "After all, I helped too."
"...." Vlad stared at those familiar eyes with cold sweat dripping from his face. Clearly, this question was a trap!
Seeing Vlad begin to sweat like a pig awaiting its slaughter, Natalia's eyes softened, and she laughed softly as she covered her mouth with her hand and gently closed her eyes, hiding the eyes of the Alioth Clan Leader.
'I need to think of a name that's not as official as that... Maybe Eyes of Space and Time? Meh, too cliché, I'll let the anime experts come up with suggestions.' Natalia thought playfully. To be honest, she didn't plan to name them because the eyes of the Alioth Clan Leader were good enough for her, not to mention that, unlike the cliché villains out there, she didn't intend to go around revealing her Technique and what she did.
"Fufu, no need to be tense. I understand well why you thanked him. Without Victor, I couldn't have reached this level of Power or have the opportunity to help my father. Without his orders, no one from the Empire would have moved, even me."
Which was a lie, considering that the Wives had very high autonomy. Only decisions that directly affected the Empire needed Victor's approval. Small things like what happened here today, the Emperor didn't even need to move.
When Vlad was about to open his mouth to say something, he heard.
"But isn't it common sense to be thankful for the help given? I feel a little sad not having received a thank you." Natalia opened her eyes and looked at Vlad.
Vlad started sweating coldly again.
'Fufu, this is fun.' It was great to be on the side of the strong. As a member of the Alioth Clan, a family that served directly under Vlad, she couldn't have played like this before, but now, as the Emperor's Wife and Dragon Goddess of Time and Space and part of the Elderblood Family, she could do this.
'Hmm?' Feeling something coming from her Husband's Domain, Natalia 'saw' Victor creating a Time Barrier. Soon, several of her Sisters, who were busy with their children like Violet, Ruby, and Jeanne, began to appear. A few moments later, Victor and her Sisters began to engage in acts... inappropriate for children.
A sense of annoyance and jealousy began to grow. She wanted to join too! 'Ugh, I would have gone too if I had known he was going to do that.'
Natalia had to restrain herself a lot so as not to bite her lips, seeing how her Sisters were having fun.
...
Inside the sphere of Time, a few months after Violet's arrival.
Victor was sitting at the foot of the bed, and behind him, all his satisfied Wives were sleeping.
Even with the help of a near Entity of Love [Aphrodite], it was impossible to defeat him; his Soul was simply too strong. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After satisfying his Wives and himself, Victor entered a mode that usually occurred to men after a 'good night'. It was generally during these times when his mind worked even more efficiently than before.
'I have my soldiers, and in a few years, these soldiers will multiply into millions. I have my Monsters, Dragons, Leviathans, subspecies of Dragons... I need to diversify more... Some fusions between Species are necessary. They need to be intelligent enough to receive orders... In fact, they just need to obey me. I can't deny the possibility of Beings on the other side who can manipulate the minds of these beasts.'
Victor hated the thought of independent clones. He was much too possessive to let such Beings near his Wives and Daughters.

Clone 1 POV.
Leviathans' Dimension.
Arriving in the Dimension that was made entirely of Water, Victor snapped his fingers, and soon the entire dimension, once shrouded in darkness, was illuminated.
The moment he did so, hundreds of thousands of enormous monsters were seen looking at him from a distance. The largest of them were the size of planets, roughly the size of Earth.
"I see that my Wives have taken good care of you... But let's speed up the evolution process a bit." As the ones who created them, Victor knew that these Beings could quite easily reach the size of Jupiter, and some very special and selected ones could reach the size of a star, the size of the sun.
But still, they were very small compared to his size in his Dragon Form, and Victor knew that size wasn't everything, but that was okay. These Beings weren't made to fight Elite Gods or perform delicate work; their soldiers were made for that.
These existences were weapons of invasion, the 'Nuclear' option. They were the ones who would eliminate his enemies' armies, and just like his clones, all the Souls of these Beings belonged to him. So, even if they died, they would just revive again.
If Victor didn't want to conquer a Galaxy and instead wished to destroy it, he could just release these Beings into that Galaxy, and in the space of a few hours, everything would be consumed.
...
Clone 2 POV.
Appearing in a deep part of his planet that only he had access to, Victor entered a portal. This place was so well hidden that not even his Daughters could find it. The only way to find it was if he allowed them to find it.
Entering the Dimension that looked like a vast forest, he found himself looking at the former Predators who had once faced the Adrastella Clan long before he even became a Vampire.
As the one who consumed the Leader of the Nightingale Gods, Victor knew very well how to Create these Beings. And the best part? He didn't even need to go through the whole tedious process their former Creator required. With his Creation, Dream, Reality, and his Nightmare Form's Distortion Powers, he could give Life to these creatures and make them the worst nightmares of sentient Beings.
"You will be my minions for targeted planetary invasions." An option for when Victor only required specific groups on a planet to be destroyed, rather than the entire planet's population.

Some may think that Victor was behaving excessively by preparing so many different types of forces for specific duties, but if someone said that to Victor, he would say that one could never have enough soldiers.
The Universe was infinite and constantly expanding. In the Upper Sectors, there were civilizations composed of trillions of sapient lives, and that number was even higher if you included non-sapient lives.
"Let's make things interesting... I will make some Alphas to control you more precisely." Victor said as he raised his hands and activated his Authority, and soon, the world around him began to change.
