Chapter 636: Ruby, Jeanne, and Morgana's changes.

An Ex-Succubus, Ex-Saint, and a Vampire Noble Heiress were looking at Victor.

"Hmm, I may be exaggerating, but isn't Jeanne already very strong? She could fight Scathach easily, right?" Violet spoke while looking at this scene.

"...Oh~? Who can fight me~?"

Violet shuddered slightly at Scathach's gaze but didn't try to hide it and continued, "You heard, right? She's the Guardian of The Universal Tree; she's basically an unheralded Primordial Entity."

"Don't casually compare someone to these Entities. Yes, Jeanne is strong, but I don't think she is on the level of these Beings. Plus, she also lacks something fundamental." Agnes spoke.

"What is she missing?" Violet asked.

"... She's like Victor, isn't she?" Sasha joined the conversation.

"Yes," Agnes confirmed.

"Like Darling…? You mean she has a lot of Power, and her body can't handle it?" Violet spoke.

"Yes," Sasha confirmed.

"Jeanne's original form is spiritual, much like the gorilla. Her flesh limits her ability to use her full power but enables her to have a life." Scathach explained.

"Jeanne really is in a privileged and cursed position," Natashia said.

"What do you mean, Mother?" Sasha asked.

"For her to be somebody related to a Primordial Entity that keeps existence itself alive, she will live forever; she literally cannot die." Natashia continued.

"In a way, she has true immortality because no matter how she 'dies,' she will simply return to the Being that maintains all Life in existence," Agnes added.

"That is her blessing and, at the same time, her curse. She has trouble forming bonds because her lifespan is longer than even the Gods," Scathach spoke.

"… don't Gods live forever?" Violet asked.

"Yes, but they can still die. Meanwhile, Jeanne is free from Life and Death. I believe she can only truly 'die' if her Soul is completely destroyed, but even that feat is incredibly difficult. After all, as a Guardian, her Soul is linked to a Primordial Entity."

"...Oh..." Violet now understood how 'privileged' Jeanne was.

"Back on topic, with a body of flesh, Jeanne can have a life, which means she can have children, a family, etc., something her original form couldn't do." Scathach continued.

"As the Highest Level Spirit, she could only have something 'normal' with Gods, or other High-Level Spirits, for example, Elemental Spirits."

'Actually, this is just speculation. After all, Jeanne's existence is of a much higher caliber than even the Gods themselves; probably only the Primordial Gods of each Pantheon could relate to her.' Scathach thought.

"I see, and because of that, she's going to do this, huh?" Violet spoke.

"Huh? Of course not." Scathach refuted.

"Eh?"

"She's just doing this because she likes Victor and wants to get closer to him. Can't you see her look of a woman in love?"

"..." Violet looked at Jeanne, and seeing the look in the blonde's eyes, a look she knew all too well, she just sighed.

"In response to your cheeky claim that she's stronger than me..."

"Ugh." Violet cringed when she heard what Scathach said.

The redhead ignored Violet and continued, "Jeanne definitely has more raw Power than I do. She's similar to Victor in that, and I recognize that, but... She's a disaster in everything else."

"Even Victor is better than her in some ways."

"..." The girls remained silent as they listened to Scathach and looked at the event in front of them.

Just like before, Victor started turning girls into members of his Clan.

An icy aura surrounded Ruby.

A green aura surrounded Jeanne.

And a malevolent, dark-red aura surrounded Morgana.

The Power the three women were giving off was incredible, especially Jeanne.

Scathach continued, "Ever since she turned into a Vampire, she's never trained again. After all, she didn't have to worry about anything with Vlad around. She may have regained her memories of who she was and how to use her Power, but her use of that Power is definitely not refined neither is her control over it smooth."

'She probably never needed to train either. Like it or not, her Power, even without training, is enough to face most Beings. All she's needed so far were her instincts.' Scathach stopped her smile from growing.

'Seriously, ever since I met Victor, strong people have been appearing like fruits you can find anywhere~. Being by his side was the best decision I ever made~. After all, things never get boring around him.'

Scathach continued to point out Jeanne's flaws, "She lacks the basics, she lacks discipline, she lacks a lot, and until she fully masters these aspects, she can never defeat me, even if she has more Power than I do."

"Even Agnes, and especially Natashia, could trounce Jeanne now."

"Hmm... I would just have to attack fast enough and not let her use her Energy. With my speed, that's easy." Natasha spoke casually.

"In my case, I think it would be easier. My Fire is the weakness of her Mortal Body; I'd just need to attack with Fire and use Fafnir's Blade to finish her off. After all, her Energy can nullify my Fire." At least Agnes thought so, as it was an Energy that came directly from a Primordial. She was going with the mindset that everything she did would be useless if it took too long.

In other words, speed was the answer.

"And that's us using our Base Form. If the battle were to get more heated, we could use our Vampire Count Forms." Natashia added.

"...." Violet and Sasha didn't know how to react to that.

"A battle between High-Level Beings is not all about Power Levels. Having more Power than your opponent doesn't guarantee victory. What good is having a Power equivalent to several nuclear bombs if you can't control or do what you want with that Power? What's the use of having so much Power if you can't apply that Power to another aspect like Martial Arts or something similar?" Scathach assumed her teacher's tone.

"That doesn't mean that Jeanne is weak or anything like that. On the contrary, she can obliterate an arrogant God-King like Zeus from the face of the planet easily. After all, the man is very careless, and if Jeanne lands a hit at the right time and without hesitation, goodbye, God-King ."

"That's the potential of the Energy she carries. But cautious Gods like Odin, Indra, and Amaterasu can absolutely defeat her."

"These Gods have a lot of hidden tricks they use in battle, and Jeanne is very straightforward. She doesn't know how to play dirty."

'Although, even these Gods would have trouble facing Jeanne head-on in her Spirit Form. The Energy that Primordial Entities use is much purer than the Divinity of a God that derives directly from Negative and Positive Conceptual Entities.' Scathach thought.

And even with that, the analysis of the fight she imagined would still leave Jeanne at a disadvantage. She was the perfect example of Being with a lot of Power but not knowing how to use that Power properly.

But despite not fully Mastering that Power, it would still be troublesome to fight if you let her use too much.

'I also didn't think about the fact that her Mortal body has some ability to withstand that kind of Energy as well.' Scathach thought.

But... For all the speculation Scathach was making right now, she was sure of one thing.

'All these flaws can be corrected easily with training... And when the time comes when she Masters everything, she will become a terrifying existence.' Scathach's smile grew; it seemed that she had to keep an eye on the blonde.

'Not just the blonde...' Scathach's eyes went to her daughter and Morgana.

'My daughter will take a while to put up a satisfying fight for me, but... Morgana, with that Energy Level, I definitely have to keep an eye on her.'

"…You speak as if you've seen them fight before," Violet spoke.

"I haven't seen it myself, but I've seen accounts of their struggles through other Gods in my travels."

"…With only rumors, you can imagine how the fight went?"

"For an experienced warrior, this is possible since the fight between two Beings hardly changes in its essence. Only the scale of the battle becomes bigger."

'Yeah, I call bullshit.' Violet and Sasha thought at the same time.

The conversation was going to continue, but they stopped when the Power emanating from the three women began to wane.

And soon, the women were seen, and as a repeat of previous events, they were as they came into the world.

This time, Kaguya didn't say anything or wait for the order. Instead, she simply walked up to the three women and offered them clothes.

The three women awoke from their stupor, accepted the clothes Kaguya offered, and started getting dressed.

And as they dressed, the surrounding group looked at them with appraising eyes.

As expected, Ruby and Jeanne did not undergo significant changes.

The two got prettier, and their eyes turned on a permanent red color.

The reason for not including Morgana in this?

Well, because she was the one who changed the most, externally speaking.

Morgana's Demonic features became more prominent. Her tail grew a bit longer, and her horns took on a black hue. Just like the girls, she became even prettier than she already was, and she had an 'erotic' charm that invoked other beings' lust. Her appearance became decidedly more deadly to men.

'Is this the effect of a High-Level Succubus with traces of Aphrodite's influence?' Victor thought.

One way to describe Morgana now would be: 'Devilishly sexy'.

Finishing getting dressed, Morgana looked at Victor with explicit desire on her face and a seductive smile. She wasn't hiding anything anymore, and those red eyes with black scleras watched the man as if she wanted to eat him here and now.

"...Holy fuck..." Victor muttered as he looked at Morgana in disbelief. He quickly approached her and felt all over her body as if he was looking for something.

"Hmm~." She moaned seductively when she felt his hands on her body.

Bonk.

"Ouch." Morgana held the top of her head, looked at whoever hit her, and saw Jeanne's neutral face.

"No horny. Behave. Can't you see he's being serious?"

"...." Morgana pouted and snorted.

"What happened, Victor?" Ruby asked.

"As expected..." Victor muttered in disbelief. The entire time he touched Morgana, he felt her very Soul.

"Stop the suspense, and spit it out!" Violet didn't like the thriller genre.

"She's become a perfect Demon-Vampire Hybrid..."

"… Huh?" Everyone thought they heard wrong.

"No, it's wrong to call her a Hybrid. It's not as simple as having half of each Race in one Soul… Her Demonic and Vampyric sides are perfectly melded together, working in sync, and changed into something totally new. She's transformed into a new Race."

"..."

Victor pulled away from Morgana and looked at her with pure shock written all over his face.

"Because of that, she underwent so many changes. Her Demonic and Vampyric sides merged and turned her into a Demonic Vampire. She is a completely new breed of creature."

The first to awaken from her shock was Scathach:

"...Victor, are you absolutely sure about what you're saying?"

"Yes, her Soul has completely changed. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has just been reborn." Victor responded with the same seriousness as Scathach.

"..." Scathach was silent, thinking about what she had just heard.

"W-Wait, does this mean I can use my Demonic Powers more efficiently?" Morgana asked with happiness welling up in her heart.

"Probably. Theoretically speaking, you definitely can use Demonic Power more efficiently. You can probably do much more than you did before, but not everything is rosy. Theoretically speaking, you might have acquired the weakness of both Races as well."

"The Fire, the Sunlight, and the Magic of the Vampire Hunters. As well as Artifacts of Light that are used to kill Demons."

"The two Races are quite similar. It's not an exaggeration to say that they have similar weaknesses; what worries me the most is that these weaknesses might have gotten stronger due to the fusion."

"Stronger as…?" Ruby asked.

"For example, if someone strikes a match near her, will she be burned like a fragile piece of paper?"

Morgana shuddered as she swallowed hard.

"… That's not possible, right? Not even Noble Vampires aren't so weak against fire! After all, we are alive, and since we are living beings, we can acquire resistance to the Element that harms us. Just look at Scathach! The other day, Agnes released a fireball at her, and she just laughed like she wasn't hurt!"

"..." Victor was silent.

Morgana started sweating like a pig about to be slaughtered now. The happiness of being able to use Demonic Power to use her old Techniques in all their glory was thrown into space now.

Noticing Morgana's fear, Victor said:

"As I said, I'm not sure. You are a new Race created from my Progenitor Blood, so it is quite likely that my influences have lessened your body's weakness, but it is hard to say. Tests are required."

"..." Those words didn't comfort her one bit.

"Huuu... Don't worry. Regardless of whether the weaknesses have gotten stronger or not, it's nothing that training can't fix." Victor smiled 'gently'.

Morgana, for the first time in her life, was in equal measure delighted and, at the same time, terrified by such a beautiful smile.

What complicated feelings...
