Chapter 483: Victor will always be Victor, no matter how much time passes.

"I see... So my master found him, huh..." Roxanne spoke while touching her chin while she was thinking about something:

'Jeanne... Is that woman somehow related to my father? Maybe she is a guardian? According to this being's words, my father called her his sister... That's the only alternative I can think of.'

"You seem to know who it was."

"I don't know him, I just know what he is." Roxanne corrected with a neutral look on her face.

"Oh? Can you elaborate more?"

"Yes." Roxanne didn't deny it. Despite being currently 'separated' from her Master because of the seal, this being in front of her is, in fact, a part of her master. He is her power reincarnated, a power that cannot come back because it is simply too strong.

Which means that whatever knowledge this being has, its master will have too.

'Although I should talk to master again when he finishes this meeting, that way maybe he'll give me a headpat...' Roxanne laughed inwardly lightly and seconds later assumed a neutral expression.

"This is something all my kind would instinctively know if they listened to your explanation."

"Just as vampires have a progenitor, my kind also has a progenitor, and you could say that being is our progenitor, our father."

"... The progenitor of the world trees." He couldn't help but speak in an impressed tone.

World trees are, in a way, divine beings of the highest level. After all, their power covers an entire planet, and without a world tree, the planet cannot have life.

The being within Victor cannot help but try to imagine the amount of 'authority' that the progenitor of these beings has in the entire universe.

"It's ridiculous to call him a progenitor. He's not exactly a 'progenitor' as you define it in the word, he's more like the... Hmm... Something like an essential part of the universe?"

"What do you mean...?"

"Just like a planet needs a world tree. The universe needs 'something' too, this being is that 'something'."

"...."

Ignoring the being's shocked look, she continues:

"He's also essential for connecting all the world trees on the planets... In a way, he really is our father." Roxanne touched her chin. That was a knowledge she'd had since birth, something like a common sense of her specialness.

She knows that in terms of hierarchy, she was the lowest and that being was the top of the hierarchy.

The world trees that already have a planet and civilization were 'ranks' above Roxanne.

'Although I don't mind that, unlike my sisters, I chose to inhabit my master, not a planet.' In their culture, this was practically a marriage.

An unbreakable vow, even if her master died, in her next reincarnation, she will still be with him, and this demonstrates how significant the attitude Roxanne has taken in the past was.

Of course, that doesn't mean she couldn't inhabit a planet, but unlike her sisters, whose core would be on the planet and unprotected.

Roxanne's core is always in Victor's soul, a very safe place.

And she could always 'abandon' the planet to its death without worrying about the repercussions of that act because her main body was not on the planet but in her master's soul.

Roxanne smiled slightly, showing her sharp teeth, her predatory blood red eyes looking down at her main body with a hint of amusement.

'I don't know what my father did, but... I must thank him if I see him one day. My master's soul became quite robust after this event, and that is an unbelievable reward. It seems that that woman is very much loved by my father.'

...

"Is that true, Father?" Edward asked in a neutral tone.

"Yes." Adam didn't deny it because, once again, Victor was correct.

The siblings narrowed their eyes in disgust. Why didn't he say anything to them?

"Mah, Mah, no need to make that expression Leona, and Ed. Friend or not, acquaintance or not, a long relationship or not. Adam is a man who has already pledged his loyalty to someone. And someone like him, who remains faithful to his master even in the face of difficult situations, is something to look up to." Victor spoke honestly.

That kind of loyalty from servants he'd only seen in Alexios and his Maids.

The two nodded when they understood that Victor was correct. Their father was always like that, and it was nothing new. He always made hidden plans, he said he was retired, but at the first opportunity to act, he would act.

The old man didn't know the word rest.

Again, Adam felt that shiver down his spine when Victor, without even trying or intending to, influenced his children's thoughts with his words.

'Is it your charm? Is it because they've known them for a long time? Or is it because they are childhood friends? Perhaps the combination of all these factors?' Adam bet it was the last option, he really was dangerous, and he wasn't talking about his powers.

"…But you don't care about any of that, right?" Leona spoke with a small smile, a smile that Victor couldn't help but return to her.

"You know me well." He closed his eyes with the same smile on his face, and the moment he opened his eyes again, his expression was serious.

"To be honest, I don't give a shit what the king, or those guys from the werewolf kingdom, will think. I don't give a fuck."

"If you asked for shelter here and now, I would do it, and I wouldn't care about the consequences."

"Fuck the king, fuck the politics. I do what I want when I want."

"And no one, not even the werewolf king, is going to stop me from that. Not even Vlad can do that anymore now."

Scathach, Ruby, and Natalia had the personal pleasure of seeing the shocked faces of the visitors.

Aphrodite was holding back from laughing in amusement now: 'That was it... This attitude! Exactly the way I like it!' She was really holding back now from jumping up and hugging Victor.

For Aphrodite, it was always a sight to behold when one was bold enough to poke their middle finger into millions of years of lore and customs.

Victor had these balls. If given enough reason, he would spit in the face of the werewolf king and give him the middle finger. He didn't give a damn.

Anna couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard her son's words:

'He's become very domineering... I bet that attitude that makes vampire women around him fall like that.' She thought as she stroked Ophis's head.

'... This girl has such cute hair, my god!'

Nero just chuckled proudly at his father's attitude.

And Ophis was lost in her world, completely at the mercy of Anna's caresses.

"...." Leona, Andrew, Fred, and Edward couldn't help but chuckle lightly and shrug their shoulders as if they had no choice. They somehow expected this answer, but to hear him speak so naturally and confidently was something worth seeing.

"You know it doesn't work that way." Adam spoke, trying as much as possible to ignore the disrespect to his king.

"I know... Because of that, I understand your side if you don't want shelter."

"... But." Victor's eyes glowed blood red, and he spoke as if it were the absolute truth:

"If Leona or Edward wants to come with me, even you can't stop that from happening."

"... Are you threatening me?"

"Wrong, not a threat. It's a promise."

"And everyone in this room knows that I've always kept my promises." The predatory little smile Victor gave at the end was clear enough to know that if Edward and Leona wanted to go with Victor, he would do anything to make that reality happen, even if it meant fighting his father.

Something he was going to do with a big smile on his face while laughing, apparently, he had become that kind of maniac.

'...Actually, he was always like that, but as he didn't have the strength to act with his actions, he always took the actions in an indirect and cowardly way.' Leona thought.

In terms of watching Victor, Leona didn't lose to Violet, and, in a way, the wolf also knew a lot about Victor. After all, they lived most of their childhood together, and unlike Violet, who remained watching from afar, she was close to him and talking.

That's one of the reasons why Violet, Ruby, and Sasha were so wary of Leona. They watched enough anime/movies to know how powerful their childhood friend was in this kind of situation.

Even though those feelings subsided when Victor's relationship with them became irreplaceable, they were calmer now but still on guard.

'Good thing Edward, Andrew, Fred, and Victor made a 'brothers' promise to never go after a loved one of each other... The famous Bro code.' Ruby thought with fun. She knows her husband will never break a promise, especially a promise he has with his childhood friends.

'In a way, it was Edward's fault that Leona stayed in the Friendzone for a long time, considering that with my husband's personality, I would doubt if this woman could escape his clutches.' Ruby couldn't help but chuckle in amusement inwardly. It was really something funny from her perspective.

'The overprotective brother ended all chances of his sister winning his crush, and she won NTR... Pfft... That would make a great hentaI title. Pfft.''

Believe it or not, Ruby wasn't someone who liked to feel the amusement of others' suffering... Okay, maybe she did a little, but she only gets that feeling when the target is her 'enemies'.

And while Leona is not an enemy, she is a rival, a rival of sorts. After all, she is a werewolf and a rival in love.

'Although in the last matter, she doesn't stand a chance, fufufufu.' A long time ago, Leona lost her chance to become a rival in love.

After all, her husband is just hers now, and in her crazy relationship,s there is no room for animal type girls.

"!!!" Ruby felt a shiver down her spine and looked around, confused.

'What was that?' She tried to think about it, but nothing came to her mind as she narrowed her eyes and made full use of her senses.

... As a certain doctor who had four tentacles says:

'Be careful what you wish for.'

Ruby could feel that annoying itch on the back of her neck, something that always happened when someone took aim at her husband. Her instincts told her that a bitch was nearby, and it wasn't the wet dog, the horny goddess, or the overly infatuated Maids.

Ruby unconsciously looks at Ophis, and her instincts get stronger.

'Ophis...?' As she looked at Ophis, the image of a woman with long black hair, nine tails, and fox ears appeared in her mind.

'Fuck it! I forgot about her!' Ruby takes her phone and sends the message to; "Wives Chat Group [OFFICIAL]."

Instead of feeling threatened by Victor, Adam felt sweet inside. Despite being annoyed, he understands that the man in front of him highly valued the friendship he had with his children.

And that was something every parent wanted for their kids, a true friend.

But this and that are different things. He's still an Alpha Wolf, an Ex-General, and his pride won't let his head down, especially for someone who isn't a werewolf.

When Adam's eyes slowly began to increase in intensity, Edward decided to intervene since he didn't want to see his closest friend and his father fighting, especially with them being the reasons.

Something that was shared by her sister as well.

"We understand your point, Vic. And again, I appreciate the friendship I have with you."

Victor turns his gaze to Edward and displays a small, gentle smile, "You, Andrew, Fred, and Leona were the best things I had in my childhood, my time in high school, and college. I'm not a hypocrite to forget what people in the past did for me just because I became a vampire."

For a moment, Victor's countenance changed to his old scrawny and weak form of 175 CM tall. He's still there, but with the most intense looks and a maturity far beyond normal.

Andrew, Fred, Leona, and Edward just flashed a small smile and didn't say anything since they didn't need to. They'd known each other long enough to know it wasn't necessary.

No matter how much Victor changes, he will still be the Victor they knew in the past, this is something all childhood friends understand again today.

Adam lowered his gaze and closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth lifting a little.

'This kid really never changes. He acts more like a werewolf than a leech... Seriously, I really wanted him to be my son. I'm sure he would be a worthy heir.' Just for a moment, he was disappointed that his daughter had not been successful in turning Victor into a werewolf.

"I will give you time to make a decision." Victor spoke.

"It is not necessary." Adam spoke suddenly.

"Oh?"

"I will leave my children with you." He spoke in a definitive tone.

"Father!?" Edward and Leona spoke at the same time.

"I'm heading back to Samar, the land of werewolves, with my eldest son Johnny."

"We have an older brother!?" This was too shocking news for them to ignore.

"Yes, although you don't remember, he visited you when he was a child."

"With the future war going on, I will train this disappointment to become someone capable of inheriting my legacy." Despite being strong, Johnny's attitude was a problem.

"In the meantime, I will leave you in Victor's care."

"…Hmm, can I train them?" Victor wasted no time and spoke.

"..." Looking at Victor and seeing a smile similar to his when he started training, Adam smiled internally again and said:

"Sure."

"...Good...Very Good..." Those single words were enough to send shivers down Edward and Leona's spines, and Victor's smile didn't help either.

"W-Wait, Father. Can we go with you?" Leona has just realized that she's dug her own grave.

Edward nodded furiously in agreement with his sister.

"Let me think..."

"...How about... No."

"Father!"

He gave an amused smile and said, "I have to go now, see you later."

"Edward, protect your sister." He spoke with serious eyes as he held both of his son's shoulders, while his eyes held a million meanings that only the two of them knew.

"Always."

"Good." He quickly left but stopped midway as if remembering something:

"Oh, don't forget to get the books and the training manuals. Despite training with a vampire, our techniques are quite different after all."

Adam ran and quickly left the house, looking like a father who went to buy milk... and never came back.
