Chapter 166: Clan Scarlett arrives.

A few minutes after Victor finished his conversation with Kaguya.

The basement of Victor's parents' house.

In a private room, the entire Scarlett family was gathered.

Siena Scarlett was the eldest adopted daughter of Clan Scarlett. She was a tall woman at 180 CM, with long red hair like all of Clan Scarlett, a curvaceous body, and F-Cup breasts.

It may not look like it, but she is 700 years old.

Lacus Scarlett was the middle adopted daughter of Clan Scarlett and, different from her older sister, she was a little shorter in height, around 160 cm tall, a slim body, with B-Cup breasts.

Pepper Scarlett was the youngest adopted daughter of Clan Scarlett and, unlike the middle sister, the younger sister was a little taller in height, around 170CM tall, and like Ruby and Scathach, she has amazing H-cups.

Currently, the maid of Clan Scarlett, whose name was Luna, was not present. Instead, she went to get some missing items for the members of Clan Scarlett.

"I see... I see..." Scathach spoke several times as she listened to Ruby's explanation.

Ruby explained everything that had happened during the incident of Victor and the Vatican Hunters, and she also made sure to say that it wasn't her who was being hunted but Sasha Fulger, her childhood friend and also Victor's wife.

Currently, Scathach was sitting on a throne of ice while various weapons, such as swords, spears, and axes, were scattered behind her throne.

She definitely came to this place in search of bloodshed.

"So you're not hurt, right?" She asked again.

"No, I'm not."

"You aren't being hunted, Right?"

"Yes, I already said that a few hours ago..." Ruby was just too tired to sigh now since, no matter how many times she explained to her mother, the woman didn't seem to understand.

'Wait... Maybe she came here expecting to have a war? Just for fun?' Ruby thought it was very possible.

Ruby looked at her mother and thought, 'Is she disappointed because she has no reason to cause a war?'

Sometimes Ruby Scarlett was a woman who overthought things.

Scathach was just worried about her lovely daughter.

"Ugh, I was sleeping. Why did I have to drag my ass to this place..." Pepper, who was lying on a couch, muttered in an annoyed tone.

She looked like those people who were upset because they were woken up to do something useless.

"Stop complaining, you know that when my mom orders us to do something, we should do it," Lacus spoke in a monotone.

It's not like the girls were afraid of Scathach. They just had a lot of respect for the woman who was their mother, and because of that respect, when Scathach ordered them to do something, the girls would do it without question.

She was also a little annoyed at being woken up since she felt like she could still sleep for a hundred years! She might be overreacting…

But the point is, she just wanted to be lazy! Now that Victor wasn't around, she wanted to use the time to sleep, but who would have thought that just a few days later, Victor would cause so much trouble?

Sigh...

Siena sighed, "Honestly, I'm glad you didn't get hurt Ruby."

Ruby narrowed her eyes a little, "...I didn't get hurt myself, but my childhood friend almost did."

"Sasha, huh?" Siena touched her chin as if thinking something, "Does Natashia, Sasha's mother, know about this attack?"

"...I don't think she knows," Ruby spoke after thinking for a while.

"Hmm. I think I'll tell her, after all, she's Sasha's mom. She has a right to know." Siena thought she was doing a good deed.

"Hmm... That might be a good idea." Ruby didn't know the personality of 'Natashia Fulger' very well, considering she was entirely different from the old woman who 'died' in the fight with Victor.

"..." Pepper and Lacus looked at each other and nodded. The two sisters seemed to have entered into a common consensus which was:

'Let's have fun!'

As the sisters now knew that Ruby was fine, they didn't have to worry anymore. Now they could enjoy being in the human world and have fun!

"Oh, but we can't go out in the day. This sucks." Lacus with a slightly irritated expression.

"…I don't want to wear that robe…" Pepper made a disgusted face.

"I'm glad that on the way here we used completely sunlight-proof cars." Pepper continued.

"Yeah, I wonder why witches didn't come up with a way for vampires to walk in sunlight... Aren't they so smart?" Lacus asked with an annoyed face.

"It's probably because of the 'balance'." Siena spoke.

"…" The three sisters looked at Siena, waiting for her next words.

"It's simple. If witches made that kind of technology, vampires, in general, would get stronger, and likely over time, the balance would be broken." Siena explained, she was like those teachers who explained to their students everything they wanted to know.

"Oh." Lacus and Pepper understood now.

"Such Bullshit." Ruby snorted.

"... What do you mean?" Siena asked.

"…" Lacus, Pepper, and Scathach looked at Ruby.

Ruby elaborated on her thoughts, "They probably don't know how to do that kind of magic and are using 'balance' as an excuse." She very much doubted that those greedy witches wouldn't try to sell that kind of magic if they were able to do it.

Witches never changed, they were all the same, and because of that thought, Ruby didn't believe what Siena said.

"..." Scathach flashed a small satisfied smile because she had the same thoughts as Ruby on that particular subject.

Witches didn't care about 'balance' or something bullshit like that. They just want to make money and monopolize the market.

'At least that's what they say...' Scathach had her own doubts about that matter too.

"Countess Scathach, I'm back..." Luna suddenly entered the room carrying more bags...

Ruby's eyes twitched when she saw the suitcases Luna was carrying. "...May I ask what this is?"

"I'm moving." Scathach dropped a bomb.

"Eh...?" Ruby thought she was suddenly deaf.

"I was bored staying home, and things seem to be interesting around here, so I thought, why not?" Scathach spoke as if it were a simple matter.

'...Why Not...?' Ruby couldn't believe what she was hearing from her mother. 'This is not a hotel!' She wanted to say this, but she decided to be silent.

"..." Siena approached Ruby and whispered in her sister's ear:

"In fact, she's running away from her responsibilities, the king is insisting she make an army, and she told him to fuck off several times."

"... Mother." This time, Ruby didn't hide it and visibly sighed.

"I don't want to make an army! It's annoying to deal with those beginners! And it's also a lot of responsibility!"

Why is she acting like a spoiled brat? Just accept it! With your experience, it should be easy to make an army! And just throw the responsibility at someone else like you always do! Ruby wanted to say it out loud, but again she was silent.

... Sometimes, she just wanted to be like Victor and speak her mind.

But she couldn't do that...

Sigh...

She sighed again.

Ruby was about to leave the room, but before leaving the room, she said, "You must know about this already, but I'll tell you anyway."

"…" The group looked at Ruby again.

"Up there is my husband's parents' house. They are ordinary humans, but they know of the existence of vampires. Because of that, they won't be shocked by your sudden appearance, but we shouldn't involve the parents of my husband in vampire affairs."

Ruby looked at the group seriously, "Keep that in mind, okay? Don't involve my husband's parents in this chaotic world."

"No need to repeat it, we know about it," Lacus spoke.

"Yes," Siena spoke.

"Yes, I know. We shouldn't talk about vampire stuff, right?" Pepper spoke in a lazy tone.

"..." Ruby continued to look at her sisters with a dry look.

"Okay." In the end, she decided to trust her sisters.

When Ruby was about to walk to the exit of the room, suddenly the door was opened again, and Kaguya appeared in the doorway, with her master Victor who was holding a cat for some strange reason.

"Sup, Girls."

"Victor!" Pepper suddenly got up and screamed.

"Hey, Pepper. It's been a few days, huh? How are you?" Victor displayed a small smile.

"I am fine!" Pepper laughed.

"That's good." Victor looked around, and, seeing the bags the girls had brought, he said, "I see you guys are going to spend some time here, huh?"

"Yeah, is there a problem with that?" This time it was Scathach, who was facing Victor, who spoke.

Victor turned his face to Scathach and flashed a gentle smile, "Of course not. You can stay as long as you like."

"...good." Scathach exhibited a small, satisfied smile.

"Meow~" Translation: Ladies.

"Neko-chan..." Pepper looked at Zack with a cute look.

"He's cute, isn't he?" Victor laughed while he brought Zack to Pepper and gave the cat to her.

Pepper picked up the cat and looked into his eyes, "...Meow?" Translation: What?

"Ughyaaaa, he is so cute! He is so fragrant! I want him for myself!" She started to hug Zack between her breasts.

"M-Meow, Meow!" Translation: I give up! I give up!

"Hahaha, he was stinking before, you know? He's only recently had a shower." Victor spoke, but Pepper didn't seem to be listening to him.

Scathach stopped staring at Victor and looked at Kaguya.

"Oh?" She seemed to understand something, then she started looking Kaguya up and down as if assessing her; 'I see, she took his blood, huh?'

"..." Kaguya remained silent, but internally, she was feeling uncomfortable with Scathach's gaze.

Lacus crept up to Victor's side and asked, "Hey, Victor... How about we train together?"

"Oh?" Victor's smile grew when he heard Lacus' proposal.

"I would never refuse a request like that." He said.

"..." Lacus exhibited a small smile.

"If we're going to train, how about calling Siena too?" He asked.

"Eh?" Siena was surprised that her name was brought up in the conversation without her knowing.

"Oh, that's a good idea, it's been years since I've seen her train." Scathach suddenly spoke,

"W-Wait, I don't want to train!" Siena started to get desperate. She didn't want to train with Victor!

"Heh~?" Scathach's smile widened.

"!!!" Siena felt her whole body tremble when she saw her mother's smile.

"...Fine, I will too." She gave up because she knew she couldn't run away when her mother said something.

Victor looked at Scathach, "Will you come too, Scathach?"

"If I go… It won't be a practice, you know?" Scathach spoke in a neutral tone. It wasn't arrogance or pride, just an undeniable fact.

She was the strongest in the room, and no one could deny that.

"That's the point." Victor's smile grew.

"..." Scathach's smile grew when she saw Victor's expression; 'Ah~, as expected, when I'm with him, things are always interesting~.' She thought inwardly.

"In this case, the entire Scarlett family will train today." Scathach rose from her throne since, somehow, she was getting excited.

"...Huh?" Ruby and Pepper, who were suddenly caught in the crossfire, could only say that.

...

In another room, Sasha and Maria were talking.

"What did you say...?" Sasha's eyes glowed blood red.

"...Please let me see Carlos," Maria repeated what she said a few seconds ago.

"Do you know where he is?" Sasha asked in an orderly tone.

"Yes. It is at address XxXxX." Maria told the address where Carlos would be waiting for her.

"..." Sasha listened in silence, and then she said,

"How do you know this information?"

"Father Julian spoke to me, and because of this sudden information, I was knocked out." She spoke in a monotone.

"…" Sasha was silent, and she started to think; 'No matter how I look at it... This is clearly a trap. What do I do?'

Not wanting to repeat the same mistakes from the past, Sasha made her decision; 'I will talk to my husband and the girls first, and then I will ask them to follow me.'

With the mistake of the past, she understood that she shouldn't be walking alone since she seemed to be being targeted after all.

"Okay, I allow you to go visit Carlos."

"... Thanks," Maria spoke, but she didn't look too happy.

"Today is too late." Sasha continued, "You will go tomorrow."

"Yes, Master..."
