Chapter 39: Anomaly.

Lacus looked at Victor with an expression that didn't believe what she was hearing.

"And even saying that you still don't understand what you did?"

"Woman, stop walking around and say what you're thinking!"

"Ugh," Lacus puts her hand to her head like she has a headache.

"Lady Lacus is frustrated because you did something impossible," My favorite maid enlightened me with knowledge; I look at Kaguya:

"You used an attack to seamlessly unite the three powers…" She looks at the minor damage my attack has done:

"This attack is basically the fusion of the powers of Clan Fulger, Clan Scarlett, and Clan Snow."

"...And?"

"..." The three women look at Victor in silence.

Pepper sighs cutely, "He needs to learn about vampire society first."

Kaguya nodded in agreement.

"Listen, Victor. Let's do an example here, okay?" Lacus starts to explain as if she were explaining to a child, she picks up a stick from the ground and starts drawing a picture on the ground:

"Let's use my sister Ruby as an example" She drew Ruby on the floor: "Ruby is a vampire who inherited the powers of Scathach, the strongest female vampire in the world."

"In the beginning, my mother's powers weren't as strong as they are now, she could only create a block of ice." She drew Scathach using her powers: "She had to train hard to raise her powers to the level it is now, and over the millennia, she managed to increase that power..."

"And then, at some point in my mom's life, she decided she wanted to have a daughter; at first, she was just bored, and she decided that on a whim. And, like every strong female vampire at the time, she did the obvious... She kidnapped a vampire from a Clan that had powers that could match her powers."

"..." Victor was speechless.

"The man who was the chosen one was a vampire who could control water and breathe underwater."

"Mom used the vampire until she became pregnant, and even went through the ritual and married the vampire, she did all of this to ensure that her child had greater potential than she did..."

"A few years later, when Ruby was born, she killed her husband and raised Ruby on her own..."

"And Ruby inherited the powers of both parents perfectly," She drew Ruby using her powers, "Ruby could control water and ice, and she could also breathe underwater; she could also combine the two powers like you did now."

"Because of this peculiarity of our race, vampires are feared... After all, with each passing generation, vampires have the potential to surpass their parents, but unfortunately, that potential is wasted..." She sighed and continued :

"Since she was little, Ruby has always had great power because of what happened in the past; she has the potential to surpass Scathach, but she needs to train a lot."

She looks at Victor and says, "What you've done now is literally impossible! You have the three powers of the strongest Clans in the vampire world, and you've combined the powers perfectly..."

She looked at me, "Do you understand!?"

"Yes... My mother-in-law is crazy... And you draw really bad... And my wife has better potential than my mother-in-law, and can surpass her in the future... And you draw really bad..." Victor nodded with his head, indicating that he understood.

"That's not it! I mean… That's it, but it's not that! AHHHH!" Lacus yelled in frustration as she held her head, she looked at Victor:

"And no need to say that I draw bad twice!"

"Hmm..." Victor displayed a small smile when he saw Lacus' reaction.

"In the world of vampires..." Kaguya started to explain, and I look at her. Then, realizing I was paying attention to her, she continued:

"All Clans that hold the title of noble vampire these days have done something like that in the past. With each generation that passed, they'd make their children train to the limit, and then they'd find a partner who matched the clan's powers, and made their heirs have children."

"Two thousand years of selective breeding, just to create a vampire with stronger potential than the parents, although that kind of practice is quite limited because vampires have low fertility..."

Then she continues, "And suddenly 'BOOOOM!'" She made an exaggerated gesture with the same stoic expression on her face:

"You showed up and used the three powers of the Clan of Vampire Counts, and you're neither a son nor an heir of those Clans... You basically ignored the whole history of the Clan of Vampires when existing. Because of that, she said that what you did it's impossible."

"…Lord Victor is an anomaly; his potential far surpasses most vampires out there."…..

Victor opened his mouth in shock, and then he looked at his fists as he thought; 'so having these powers is considered abnormal…'

Victor was feeling weird, he didn't consider himself special or anything like that, but it wasn't a bad feeling; 'With this 'potential', if I train like crazy, maybe in less than a few years, can I get to my mother-in-law's level...? I really want to fight her…'

"I get it, thank you, Kaguya..." I smiled gently and patted her head.

Kaguya exhibited a small smile on her face.

"Selective breeding, huh?" I put my hand on my chin, "So my wives' families did that too..."

"...Huh?" Pepper suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Why did you understand her confusing explanation and not mine!?" Lacus yelled.

Victor ignored Lacus...

Kaguya suddenly said, "Your wives' Clan doesn't need to do this."

"Let's use Ruby as an example again."

"Countess Scathach was already a powerful woman when she decided to have a daughter, and when she had a daughter, the daughter was born with the 'potential' to surpass her own mother, in the end... It all depends on the parents themselves and the children's effort; after all, the children have a better start than the parents had."

"I see… I don't understand something."

"If vampires have this quirk as a race, why aren't they stronger than other factions?"

"Well... There are noble vampires with the same personality as Corneliu..." Kaguya explained.

'Who?' Victor thought, confused.

"80% of vampires worldwide are like that man, lazy, proud, and never train..."

"..." I just looked at Kaguya with a blank expression.

"But don't despair! 19% of vampires are workers! And only 1% are crazy about training like Lady Scathach!"

'...Vampires are fucked...80% of the vampire population is just useless.' Victor thought.

"...Just out of curiosity, my wife Violet's mother, and my wife Sasha's mother, are they just like Scathach?" Victor's eyes gleamed for a moment.

"…They're not the same… Lady Violet's mother is… Narcissistic and obsessed with her husband." She tried to find better words, but in the end, she just gave up:

"Lady Sasha's mother. .. She is obsessed with gambling, and rarely trains, but with the two women living over 1900 years, they are powerful... But they are not on the same level as Ruby's mother..."

"Oh..." Victor looked disappointed for a moment.

"...Why this sudden curiosity with the two women-" Lacus was about to ask something, but suddenly Pepper yelled in a cute voice.

"Are you ignoring what he just said!?"

"Huh?" Lacus looked at her sister.

"Didn't you hear!? He just said 'my wives'!" She mimicked Victor's voice perfectly at the end.

"Oh-..." Lacus looked at Victor,

"Do you have any more wives?" She asked curiously.

"Yes," I replied with a gentle smile.

"Who are they?" Lacus asked with the same curiosity.

Victor was going to answer the question, but...

"Didn't you hear!?" Pepper yelled again, "He was talking about Violet and Sasha! Kyaaaaa! I need to tell my friends! The three flowers of the vampire world have been taken by a stranger!"

"..." Lacus looked at her sister and said, "Why are you just smart for these things?"

"Lady Pepper likes to gossip..." Kaguya sighed.

"She's just bored…" Lacus sighed too.

"Why don't we train? We've already talked too much," Victor suggested and started walking toward a more spacious place.

"Lord Victor is right," Kaguya started to follow Victor.

The two sisters look at each other and nod; then, they follow Victor too.

Some minutes later.

As Victor walked through the forest, he suddenly felt his throat go dry.

"Ugh," He dropped to his knees on the ground, his eyes changed to blood red, and his teeth started to change and get sharper.

All ​​the symptoms that were quite common, Kaguya said, "... Bloodlust,"

"...This is a good time!" Pepper yelled like she had a good idea, "We should train bloodlust control."

"I disagree; Lord Victor's bloodlust is stronger than that of ordinary vampires. Therefore, the chance of him going mad is very high," Kaguya strongly disapproved.

"Why is his bloodlust is stronger?" Pepper asked in curiosity.

"Something happened in the past that made him like this," Kaguya spoke ambiguously.

"..." Pepper looked at Kaguya with a cute look.

"So, what are we supposed to do?" Lacus asked.

"…You don't need to do anything…I'm fine." Victor stood up and forced a 'gentle' smile on his face, but it failed miserably because his sharp teeth were showing.

Kaguya looked at Victor with a stoic expression, "Lord Victor, are you sure everything is alright? Hasn't your bloodlust gotten stronger compared to before?"

"Yes... it got stronger..." Victor kept walking, then he explained:

"Even if I wanted to quench my thirst… My wives aren't around now, and it's impossible for me to quench my thirst with common blood."

"... That's true."

"Because of that nuisance, I don't want to get married! Just imagine being dependent on someone else's blood for eternity? No thanks." Lacus snorted.

Victor ignored Lacus and continued walking, Kaguya looked at Lacus with a neutral expression, but she didn't say anything.

"I found a place with space to train," Victor said while looking at a distant place with his vision, and soon he used his speed and ran towards that place, Kaguya who was close to Victor, just ran along with him.

Pepper looked at her sister with a cute look but just shrugged and followed Victor.

"…huh? W-Wait! Don't leave me behind!"
