?Chapter 785: He''s here.


    "Darling... I thought you only wanted Tasha''s people and The Lykos n."


    "Yes, you''re right, Roxanne."


    "Then why did you incite Tasha to go after her Throne?" Roxanne asked as she floated behind Victor.


    Victor chuckled gently and stroked Roxanne''s head. "Silly girl, I didn''t say that with the intention of her reiming the Throne for herself. I merely said that to awaken her sense of pride."


    "All my words were meant to incite those feelings within her. After all, it must be frustrating, isn''t it?" Victor looked at the night view of the City with a small smile on his face.


    "To have everything you helped build taken away from you overnight." His hair fluttered in the wind, and his violet eyes gazed at the City as if seeing much more than just the chaotic yet beautifulndscape.


    "I understand... But it''s not just that, right? After all, you wouldn''t work so hard for a Nation you don''t care that much about..." Roxanne smiled lightly. "You''re repeating the same situation that happened with Jeanne and Morgana." As someone connected to Victor, Roxanne could see far beyond his words.


    She knew very well that the main reason Victor did what he did so far was something else. Yes, all the reasons he mentioned were not lies, but the main reason was to help a good woman flourish to her full potential.


    Why did Victor fully support Violet, Ruby, and Sasha in everything they sought to achieve, even when it seemedpletely inefficient at times?


    Because that was what they wanted to do, what they desired to do. And therefore, he supported them. He did the same with all his Wives. Only when someone pursued their own goals did that person truly shine.


    Jeanne and Morgana seemed lifeless to Victor when they first met him, and it was only by helping them find their true selves that they became "good women."


    The same case applied to Tasha. She''dpletely forgotten who she was because of her responsibilities as a Queen and her rtionship.


    She restrained herself. She restricted her own potential in the name of society. All Victor was doing was helping her unleash that potential.


    To Victor, the story he read in that book about a wild Goddess called The Beast Monarch was much more interesting than the current Tasha.


    "Haah... What kind of person would destroy a marriage because a woman hadn''t reached her full potential?" Roxanne sighed.


    "That''s a grave usation, Roxanne... I didn''t destroy anything; I didn''t even get involved."


    "Yes, my presence may have triggered many things, but essentially speaking, I did nothing. It''s not my fault if people can''t handle my presence."


    "Well, your presence is simply too significant to be ignored, Darling." Roxanne chuckled lightly.


    "As I said before, that''s not my problem."


    "Not to mention, it wasn''t me who decided to betray Tasha and have children outside of marriage, nor was it me who hid the existence of those children. It wasn''t me who was so ipetent that I couldn''t govern properly or behave like a true Monarch in front of another Monarch."


    "All of this is Volk''s doing. I''m merely reacting to what Volk did."


    "Then making all of Maya''s husbands submit to your presence was their doing?" Roxanne pointed out an incident that urred while Maya was showing Victor around the city.


    "That''s an entirely different matter, my dear." Victor rolled his eyes. "It''s not my fault if they are intimidated by my presence."


    "I will not restrict myself because of strangers. I will do what I want, when I want, wherever I want. Just as it has always been from the beginning."


    "All hail The Demon King of Tyranny," Roxanne spoke with a grand gesture and thenughed. "It was this attitude that earned you that Title, my Husband."


    "If exercising my will makes people call me a tyrant... then so be it... Let them call me whatever they want. Let themin like a flock of sheep because, in the end, it won''t matter, after all..." Victor and Roxanne''s bodies slowly began to disappear in ck smoke.


    "The will of The Demon King cannot be stopped."


    ...


    Victor appeared in front of The Lykos n mansion in his Regr Form, dressed in an entirely ck suit.


    As soon as he entered the Mansion, he heard Maria''s voice.


    [Master, all positions have been secured.]


    [Good work, Maria... Maintain your position and await further orders.]


    [Yes, Master.]


    Victor walked through The Lykos n mansion as if he owned the ce. None of the Werewolves present dared to look him directly in the face, and those who did instinctively felt a fear that paralyzed their entire Being. It was as if they were staring at a predator at the top of the food chain.


    A Dragon.


    Looking at this crowd of white-haired men and women, Victor thought that The Lykos n was indeed populous and that, unlike the Noble Vampire ns that epted other Noble Vampires through a n eptance Ritual, everyone here was truly one family rted to each other.


    ''Rather than Wolves, they''re more like rabbits,'' Roxanneughed.


    ''Well, Wolves are more fertile than Vampires, at least the weaker ones.''


    It was a universal rule that the stronger you were or if your Race had a long lifespan, it was very difficult for those individuals to reproduce. If an individual was from a long-lived Race and was strong, it was practically a rarity for them to have children.


    Because of this, the number of Dragons was so few. They were not only hunted for their highly valuable bodies, but it was also very difficult for them to reproduce, which rendered their species practically extinct.


    Even Victor himself had only seen one True Dragon so far, and that Dragon was Zdrac. He didn''t even consider the Youkai Dragons as True Dragons since they were more Youkai than Dragons.


    Victor looked up and spotted Maya. From her usatory look, he deduced that she must have already heard about what was happening between Volk and Tasha.


    Victor smiled internally as he realized that things were progressing quite smoothly.


    Contrary to what Victor thought, Maya wasn''t solely focused on Tasha and Volk''s affairs. She was also admiring the sight before her.


    The Lykos n, a n of Wolves with quite the delinquent-like attitudes, was instinctively submitting to a Noble Vampire. She had never seen this sight with any of her husbands before.


    Yes, she had seen this sight before, but it was she who provoked this reaction from her n, not someone else.


    ''As expected... He''s a True Alpha,'' Maya thought.


    A True Alpha wasn''t just respected and feared by Werewolves; they were someone respected and feared by all Races. Victor easily fulfilled that requirement, and you know what was the best part? He did it effortlessly just by being himself.


    He didn''t even need to pretend like most Alphas she had seen.


    Maya made a hand gesture and asked Victor to follow her, but instead of following her, he turned to the right andpletely ignored her.


    A vein throbbed in Maya''s head, but unconsciously, a small smile appeared on her face. Soon enough, she found herself following Victor.


    ...


    "Natalia, my dear. You can proceed with the next phase of the n and inform d that my Maids have already prepared everything. Don''t worry, Aurora won''t interfere with your Powers."


    "Yes, Darling," Natalia nodded, and secondster, a Portal appeared beside her, where she proceeded to enter.


    "... Darling, you really messed everything up as always," Leona pointed out.


    "How rude; I didn''t do anything. They did this themselves. And I would be foolish not to take advantage of the situation," Victor huffed as he sat on the sofa.


    Leona wasted no time and quickly jumped into hisp, embracing him.


    Victor chuckled gently and caressed her long white hair.


    "Hehe, I missed this," Leona said as she hugged him tighter.


    "So spoiled... I''m making you too ustomed to it."


    "Humph, it''s the Husband''s job to spoil the Wife. And in return, the Wife will spoil the Husband too."


    "Well, that''s true," Victor smiled.


    Victor nced at Big Guy. "d ising; you know what to do."


    Big Guy nodded, and slowly he began to disappear into pure Red Energy.


    "Hmm~, that tickles, Darling. Why are you caressing my belly?"


    Victor looked at Leona''s toned belly. Despite having perfect abs that showcased her warrior''s body, her body wasn''t rigid; in fact, it was quite soft.


    Due to Werewolves'' physiology, she could control her body perfectly, and this effect was most visible in the muscles that she could make either rigid or flexible.


    Victor also thought this was due to the "Elizabeth" gene he had heard about, a gene that further enhanced a Werewolf''s aspects.


    "Don''t you like it? I can stop if you want," he spoke as he began to retract his hand.


    In the next moment, all the muscles in Leona''s body became rigid, and she grabbed his hand with a speed that caused a small boom around them. If his hand were a Human''s, all the bones would have been pulverized.


    "I didn''t say that... Don''t stop."


    Victor smiled and continued to pamper Leona. Just a few minutester, Maya entered the room.


    "Demon King, can you control yourself? You''re scaring everyone in my n."


    "Humph, they should have already gotten used to my presence; I visit regrly, you know?" Victor wouldn''t stop visiting Leona, even if she was learning about her ancestry.


    "Don''t expect the impossible; you''re apletely different Being from the ones they are used to dealing with." Maya walked over to the sofa in front of Victor and sat down, crossing her legs. She nced at Leona for a few seconds, and various emotions passed through her eyes, the main one being envy.


    "Even my two most talented descendants dare not stay in the same space as you." Mayaughed as she thought of Be and Connor, who seemed like two frightened cats, a behavior very different from their usual selves.


    "As I said, that''s not my problem. Besides, if they can''t even handle my presence, they will never grow. It''s for their own good," Victor pointed out.


    "... That... Actually, that''s a good point." Maya tried to counter what Victor said, but she realized that he waspletely right in that regard.


    After pondering a bit on this matter, Maya set it aside and got to the main point:


    "Anyway, what are you nning to do with Samar? Volk''s actions and the current situation, all of it has to do with you, right?"


    "You overestimate me too much; this situation would have exploded sooner orter. I just happened to be the unintentional catalyst."


    "... Well, that''s true... But that doesn''t mean you won''t profit from it, right? What are you nning to do?"


    "Help two good women reach their full potential," Victor neutrally replied as he continued to caress Leona, who sighed in a defeated manner upon hearing Victor''s words.


    Maya raised an eyebrow. She waited for a few seconds, but when she realized that no further words were spoken, she asked incredulously, "Just that?" She didn''t feel like he was lying, so she was a little surprised by his words.


    Victor smiled lightly at Maya. "Just that."


    "... Really?"


    "Yeah. You seem to think highly of the Werewolves, but my interest in this ce is limited to your n, the Ancestor of your n, Elizabeth, the Goddess once called The Beast Monarch, and of course, Fenrir and The World Trees."


    "I have no interest in this society atrge unless it''s for entertainment and recreational purposes." Victor had to admit that the mixture of various Eras in this society was quite amusing.


    "Hmm..." Just as Maya was about to say something, a portal opened where Natalia had previously stood.


    Natalia stepped out of the portal and said, "Darling, d is here."


    Maya widened her eyes upon hearing what Natalia said.


    Victor stood up from the sofa along with a slightly irritated Leona for being taken out of herfort zone. "Finally, the old man is here."


    Victor looked at Maya and asked, "I''m going to do some things. Do you want toe?"


    "... Of course." Maya wouldn''t let such an interesting opportunity pass—cough, actually, she was doing it to observe Victor and his ns. After all, it was all for the safety of the Werewolves.
