Chapter 196: 196: Sometimes You Should Just Burn Everything.
"Burn, Bitches!"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sounds of men screaming in agony from being burned alive can be heard all around.
Violet looked like a crazy psychopath who was walking around setting everything ablaze with a big smile on her face.
"Burn in the holy fire. The inquisition has arrived, bitches!" Violet kicks open the door to a room, scaring everyone inside.
"Are you a slayer!?"
"We're on the same side!"
"Why are you doing this!?"
Violet makes a face like she's looking at a fool, "What a stupid question!"
"It's because I want to!"
"You're crazy!"
"Say 'hello' to god for me, tell him that his wife is a bitch who is cheating on him… Oh, but if you go to hell, tell Satan he needs to meet God! Their gay romance still hasn't progressed after thousands of years!"
"You're not making any sense-.."
Violet points her hand at the man and says with a distorted smile,
"I know."
Fushhhhhhhh
Fire came out of the woman's hand and started burning everything again!
"AHHHHHHHHHH!"
"HAHAHAHAHA, THIS IS FUCKING FUN!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh! I'm burning, I'm burning!"
"Yes, indeed. You're burning!"
"Someone kill this madwoman!"
"Impossible, this place has no weapons!"
"Damn, who was the idiot who didn't put guns-."
"Hello." Violet appears behind the man and grabs him by the neck, and rips the man's arm from his body.
"AHHHHHHHHH!"
"The inquisition has arrived bitches! It's time to burn all the infidels!" She was doing a good job impersonating a hunter…
…
Cough, Cough, Cough.
"My god, Violet. Why did you burn everything? I almost suffocated." Sasha spoke in an annoyed voice as she coughed heavily.
"Well…" Violet didn't have much to say, and she's definitely not going to say she liked what she did in this place.
"..." Ruby looked around with a cold gaze as she put her hand over her mouth, as she was looking at the mess Violet had made.
Burnt bodies, burnt files, burnt walls.
Yes... Basically, everything was burned.
"Oops...?" She scratched her head while making an innocent face that was, at the same time, obviously not so innocent.
She definitely liked burning everything.
"We've lost any useful clues now…" Sasha spoke as she looked at all of the burned files.
"Not quite." Ruby suddenly spoke.
"...Hmm?"
"All is not lost, look." She pointed to a number on the basement wall.
Sasha, Violet, and Kaguya looked at where Ruby was pointing, and they saw the number 1.
"This is the first floor of the basement." Ruby took a step forward, and suddenly.
FUSHHHHHHHHH!
The whole place was frozen.
She takes her hand away from her mouth and says, "The important stuff isn't on the first floor, let's investigate further, and this time…" Ruby looked at Violet with a menacing look.
"Don't burn everything, please."
Nod, Nod!
Sasha nodded furiously, making sure it was clear she agreed with what Ruby said.
Violet turns her face away, "...I'll try." She pouted.
"Anyway-." When Ruby was going to say something, all the girls listened.
"Is this your idea to test me!?"
The girls' world suddenly seemed to get heavier, and they quickly looked up:
"Darling is angry." The three spoke at the same time.
[Master...] Kaguya's shadow begins to leave Violet's body and soon disappears into the darkness.
"...Isn't she more hardworking than when she was working for me?" Violet asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I wonder what made him so angry." Sasha promptly ignored what Violet asked and spoke up.
It was common knowledge between the two girls that Violet always got into trouble, and Kaguya had to clean up the bullshit she did.
'Ah... That hasn't changed much, huh?' Sasha thought when she remembered that her husband always got into trouble.
"The only thing I'm feeling from Darling is anger and disappointment," Ruby spoke a little of what she was feeling about their connection.
"Is the opponent likely weaker than expected?" Sasha thought out loud for the girls to hear.
"Hmm... I don't think that's it..." Violet said. She knew that Victor only got angry when someone close to him was threatened, just like what happened with Kaguya and Sasha.
Or when someone kills his fun or gets in his way when he is fighting.
But from those two things mentioned above, he wouldn't have such a strong reaction. Something wasn't right.
"Anyway... Let's continue." Ruby didn't know what made her husband so angry, but they needed to work too, and she was curious about how this basement was built.
From what she can see, this basement appears to be an advanced scientific facility? Ruby wonders why the church spent so much money building this place and left it with so little protection.
'Maybe this is one of the laboratories responsible for creating the hybrids?' Ruby thought this was very possible.
And if this place was what she was thinking, she was definitely very curious about this place.
Just as Ruby was about to take a step to keep walking, she felt someone grab her arm and pull her back.
"... Violet?"
"Why did you-" Ruby was silent, as she felt a power that sent shivers down her spine and a cold sweat run down her back, pierce through the roof, and break through the basement.
She quickly turns and looks down.
"Darling is going too far... Something really pissed him off." Violet's eyes were black, like a black hole. She doesn't like it when Victor uses this power. After all, she knows the consequences of Victor using that power.
'Who was? Who was the bastard who made you use that power? I will kill him again!'
"Would the attack have hit me...?"
"Don't be silly. Of course it wouldn't have, I just pulled you because you're too lost in thought."
Ruby wanted to scream bullshit, but when she looked at the spot where Sasha was looking, she realized that the attack had actually gone relatively far away from her.
"Darling paved the way for us." Sasha flashed a small smile as she stared at the cut in the floor from the power that Victor unleashed.
"...You don't look worried," Ruby asked as she looked at Sasha.
Sasha looked at Ruby with an emotionless look, "I'm worried, but I also know my husband is a stubborn man who never listens to anyone."
"If you tell him to go right. It's 100% sure he's going to the left. He's a stubborn man, and he doesn't take orders from anyone, and mostly...-"
"When he gets angry, he doesn't care about anything else. He'll just do what he wants. It's like a filter that turns everything off…-" Violet continued what Sasha was going to say with a small smile on her face.
"And while this is a failure, this is his strongest point." This time it was Ruby who continued what Violet had said.
"An incorrigible man indeed." The three spoke at the same time.
"..." They smile at each other, and then Violet turns around:
"I will go back to my Darling." Since, despite what she said, Violet still cares more about Victor than a useless lab that she's just going to burn down.
"Okay, we will continue," Ruby spoke as Sasha nodded.
Ruby walks towards the hole Victor's attack opened in the underground lab, as she creates an ice spear and takes a step into 'nothing', and let's gravity do its job.
Rumble, Rumble!
Sasha's body starts to crackle with the sound of lightning, and soon she disappears, leaving behind golden trails.
...
Violet returned to the surface, and she was surprised to see that everything around her was on fire.
'Annoying... Annoying...' She was hearing Victor's thoughts.
She looks in one direction and soon finds Victor sitting on an ice throne with a bored face. Although he seemed calm and cold on the outside, on the inside, he was extremely annoyed.
"Hmm...?" Victor seemed to meet Violet's eyes.
'...Oh, honey...'
Violet listened in her mind.
And like magic, his turbulent emotions seemed to calm down significantly.
"Darling…" Violet flashed a loving smile as she jumped towards Victor.
She sits on his lap and curl's against him while leaning her head on his chest, making it obvious she wants to be pampered!
Wrong, she demanded to be pampered!
"..." Victor's smile grew gently, and soon he began stroking Violet's head.
"Hehehehe~." She wore a goofy smile since she always liked it when Victor did that to her.
The two are silent while enjoying each other's presence. It was only in moments like these that they didn't need to say anything. After all, they could understand each other even if they didn't say anything.
In the middle of an abandoned city burned by fire, a man was sitting on a throne of ice while he had a beautiful woman with long white hair in his arms.
... That was a strange sight indeed, but even though it was strange, this was a beautiful sight.
"Why are you so angry, Darling?" Violet finally asked the question she wanted to know.
"Oh, it's nothing. Only that some idiot interrupted my fun, and that annoyed me."
"I see... And what did this idiot do?"
"He turned three interesting opponents into an irrational monster."
"..." Violet's eyes gleamed a little dangerously.
"What was this monster?"
"I don't know, but it was strong. I think it could kill an untrained 1000 year old vampire easily? Although I'm sure someone like Lacus could defeat this monster... But I think she would still have a bit of trouble?"
Victor couldn't measure the monster's exact capabilities. After all, he killed it very quickly, but with just those golden flames and the incredible power boost, he could be a formidable opponent for Lacus.
But in the end, Victor believes Lacus would emerge victorious, considering her training with Scathach isn't just for show, and his thoughts become more concrete when he understands that Lacus, Siena, or even Pepper never used their full power against him.
"I see..." Violet thought this was a bad thing since Victor might not understand why he is so abnormal.
But that kind of monster is very dangerous for normal noble vampires. 'It would be nice if he had a recording of that fight.'
Violet was trying to be more responsible, and she felt like she should tell her mom that or something, but...
"... Hmm... Whatever, that's a lot of work." She lays her head on Victor's chest and forgets everything she just thought.
She was incorrigible...
"Hahaha~." Victor chuckled gently as he stroked Violet.
"Why are you laughing?" Violet looked at Victor with her violet eyes.
"It's nothing, I just thought it was funny."
"Hmm…" Violet eyed Victor with a suspicious look.
"Hahaha-, It's nothing-." Victor was going to say something.
"When are you going on the dates you promised with Sasha and Ruby?" But Violet interrupted what he was about to say with a question.
"What-...Ugh." Without meaning to, Victor ended up biting his tongue...
He hadn't expected this sudden question.
"..." Violet continued to look at Victor with a neutral gaze.
Her face said, 'Answer me, I'm waiting.'
"Hmm..." Victor's tongue is healed, and then he speaks:
"I was actually planning on meeting them when we got back to the human world, but you know what happened, right?"
"Yes... We didn't have a lot of time to enjoy ourselves together."
"Yes..."
"...I can't focus 100% on them like I did you if I don't get rid of this nagging feeling in my chest."
"I feel like it would be unfair to the girls if they didn't have my full attention on my date with them..." Victor spoke in a sincere tone as he looked into Violet's eyes.
"Hmm...Good, at least you thought about it properly." Violet laid her head back on Victor's chest.
"..." Victor narrowed his eyes a little. He really didn't understand Violet sometimes.
If it was Violet from a few months ago, that kind of attitude would have been impossible.
"...Of course I think about it properly, I want to give them a proper date, and I can't do that while all this is going on..."
"I know, I know. You're weird in some ways." Violet spoke, and suddenly she suggested,
"You should pay more attention to Ruby and Sasha."
"...But I do. Don't I?" Victor didn't understand. He definitely remembers that he never forgets to pay attention to his wives.
"It's still not enough, you need to pay more attention!" Violet gets up again and cups Victor's face, and she repeats with a crazed look.
"MORE, MORE, MORE!"
"..." Victor flashed a small smile when he saw Violet's gaze.
"If you don't pay attention to us, we'll kidnap you and take you somewhere secluded."
"Please, do it."
"...Huh?" Now it was Violet's turn to be surprised.
"I mean, I want to spend more time with my wives, but these worms keep showing up, and it's so fucking annoying."
"...Whoa..." Violet was actually surprised by something.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Of course, it's not nothing. Don't be reluctant with your thoughts."
"It's nothing, don't worry." Violet flashes a seductive smile as she leans her head against Victor's chest and closes her eyes.
"Strange..."
"Hehehehehe~." Violet had an evil smile on her face.
