Victor slowly made his way toward James Trove’s table with the contract.
“Principal James… Can you bear witness to my wedding too!” Victor asked meekly.
“Yes of course… Let me get a look at this contract first…” James said as Lily placed the contract in front of him while making sure to stand close by to cloak her blood and smell on the contract.
James Trove just gave the golden paper a casual look when suddenly he felt his blood boil! SHIT… Could Lily be one of the brides too?
No… He quickly found the reason. It was a purple little signature with the name Lara Von Weise… Just the look of it made him shiver. What the f*ck?
“Is everything alright?” Victor asked.
“AH… Yes…” James said as he quickly signed his name.
“Excellent,” Victor said then quickly headed to another table
James sighed as he saw Victor go with Lily then frowned… Wait… weren’t there 9 signatures on the contract?
He was not sure….
He counted them again in his head… No! There were only eight.
…
Lily sighed in relief after Victor successfully got Yulian’s and James Trove's signatures.
Finishing with the contract she was signaled by Victor to take it away as he headed to the front of the hall where the dancing stage was finished and 8 brides walked out wearing colorful gowns… Even Elise, who was a little nervous about being pushed by Margret, was wearing a pink gown that made her look very pretty.
Lily really wanted to dance with Victor too, but she knew that it was impossible for now. Victor did promise her and the girls a better wedding later though and there would be a special dance tonight at the mansion…. he he he…
Behind the veil she wore, Lily blushed and smiled like a pervert as she looked at her status window.
MARRIED TO < VICTOR VON WIESE > EFFECTS: TWO WAYS EXPERIENCE SHARE |
At last, Victor was hers! She couldn’t believe it was true.
She was Victor’s main wife! She was no longer afraid of her family or that b*tch Margret!
And on top of all this, they managed to pull it in front of everyone's eyes by changing their costumes and using Alex and the girls around the stage as a scapegoat to direct the attendees' attention.
No one noticed it, but this was a black dragon marriage ceremony, not the eight kingdoms one they started in the other hall!.
This was not a marriage between the hero and the 8 princesses but between the evil dragon and the defeated female hero with her companions! The sacrifices before the wedding signified the battles before the defeat!
It was an entirely different ceremony altogether from the gesture to the wordings!
So when everyone supposed that the bride was marrying the hero, it was in fact the hero and his colleagues getting married to the dragon! Bowing to him.
She also got the girls to bow to her once as she was the main wife!
Yes, she was the Hero under the mask that covered her entire face. The stupid priest that wore the dragon mask was played by none other than Victor. Everyone made the wrong assumption because of the previous ceremony in the first hall.
When Victor pricked her finger with the dagger he also pricked his… The blood mark in the center of the contract was a combination of both of their bloods as they moved their fingers together!
That’s why she had to stand next to the contract, in order for Yulian and James not to feel her blood.
The Lily that they saw outside disguised as her was none other than Theta, who only appeared after the main ceremony was finished.
Now she was Victor’s wife, and no one would ever be able to split them apart!
…
Victor quickly reached the center of the freshly built dance stage and turned to face the anticipated attendees.
“Ladies and gentlemen… If you may allow me a first dance with the ladies, then I will give you the stage!” he said as if he was in a hurry.
“His medication is about to kick in!” El, who was at the moment sitting with Lara and her two maternal cousins Bob and Miley at a side table, said… Elena wanted Lara to get to know them better as she grilled Alice and Yulian about some details that young girls shouldn’t hear.
“Yeah… I heard that priestess mentioned it before!” Bob Junior said then looked at Lara, “Does your brother do drugs? Drugs are bad, you know!” he said, acting righteously.
“Yes…” Miley nodded. Her mother told her to make Lara like her, but she didn't know how. She wanted to ask Marlie, but her sister was still going around like headless chicken searching for her lost fiance.
“Drugs?” Lara frowned… What did they mean by drugs? She wondered. Her brother did usually take a lot of pills… Do those count?
Drugs are not that effective on those with bloodlines, so now one taught Lara about them.
“As I said before I was rudely interrupted…. Hiccup…” El, who was completely drunk after secretly sipping 3 bottles of wine, said. “It is definitely medication for his electrical dysfunction! All men take those on their wedding days!… Hiccup…” she said with a nod. “My Uncle Black used to buy those from abroad to sell for tourists!”
“Electrical dysfunction? What's that? What does it do?” Bob asked.
“Make him as strong as a bull!” El nodded as she banged the table, remembering what her Uncle Black said with a dirty smile.
“Oh… Can we take those too?” Bob asked. He wanted to be strong too!
“Probably…Hiccup…”
“I will ask Mother when we return home!” Miley said.
Lara nodded. If they made her strong, they would be perfect for her training, so she also intended to give her poor mother a heart attack by asking her later tonight.
…
Victor smiled as he looked at his shy brides who sat neatly to the side in their fluffy dance gowns on gilded chairs. This time they were not wearing masks, allowing the crowd to be amazed by their beauty.
“Mommy, I want a bride like those too…” one guy said to his snobbish mother.
“Father… I want to marry 8 wives too!” another said.
“Dear…Please beat some sense into your son!”
“Father…? Why aren’t you responding?”
“Dear?”
“Nothing… I was distracted for a second…” The father said, totally not showing that he was having the same thoughts as his son.
“...”
Many men had the same thoughts… After this wedding, they would never be the same, not after they realized what they were missing all these years! They were blissfully living in their ignorance, but not anymore! Now they know that every man should have a harem!
“Ooch…” Yulian yelped as Alice pinched his thigh.
“Gaze at them again and I will gouge your eyes out!” Alice threatened. She had no idea why she was feeling jealous… Yulian was a fake boyfriend after all…
Yulina nodded… Why did he do that? He doesn’t need to listen to her…. She looked cute when she was angry… Why the hell was she angry?
Victor chuckled to himself as he watched them then cleared his throat.
"Ehm… Since I didn't get to introduce the girls earlier because of the ceremony's tradition. I will do it now as I take them for a small dance one by one..." he said then turned to face the musicians to the side "First Act! Music!" He shouted
The orchestra quickly stopped playing the song they were at, adjusted their instruments, and then began to play a strange yet serene melody that touched the hearts of everyone and made them feel happy.
"What kind of music is this?" Elena asked. She had never heard anything like this.
"This is a sample from the soundtrack of the new movie, "A new world: The Dragon princess saga!" which my company is currently producing… It will be released in the cinemas next year, starring Mira! " Victor shouted, extending his hand to Mira who slowly approached him and threw herself in his embrace. She was wearing a white gown and had a golden flower on her chest. Her silky hair was tied into a braid around her head, making her look like a noble young lady… Like a character from some movie to be exact.
"Now Although all of you guys know her, let me take the pleasure of introducing her as my wife. Mira, my first love.” Victor said as he took the blushings Mira’s hand and then guided her to start a dance.
"I fell in love with Mira when I saw her in the Movie "Very dangerous young lady!". I was Eleven years old back then, and that night I couldn’t sleep all night thinking about her. She looked super cute as a child assassin back then, and she grew up to become a very beautiful lady as I expected she would be!" Victor slowly explained as they danced. Allowing Mira to twirl around in her dress while blushing. She wished her father would be here to see her, but as one of the family's agents, he had a lot of responsibilities and couldn’t come.
Victor slapped her butt as she collapsed in his hands.
She changed her mind. Thankfully her father didn’t come!
"When I met Mira for the first time two months ago, I knew that I wanted to marry her… I proposed, and she accepted… She also fell in love with me at first sight!.” he lied looking her in the eyes, making her look away while blushing… he was not lying… She did fall for him and his handsome face, but she couldn’t just let him know.
The attendees watched the dance for the next five minutes, fully mesmerized until the dance slowly ended with a deep kiss.
Victor reluctantly let Mira go after that. She slowly returned to her seat with a blush as Victor turned to face someone else.
“Next is…” Victor paused and extended both of his hands.
Mina and Mana slowly stood up and walked to his side, taking both of his hands. They were wearing two matching black gowns with blue and yellow roses.
He drew back his hands, pulling the two girls into his chest under the envious looks of the viewers.
“Mana And Mina as you see are twins… I fell in love with them as soon as I met them that day when I first arrived at my mansion in Vein City! They work as maids there you see” Victor said. “They accompanied me for an entire night … And managed to steal my poor heart!” He said mysteriously then began to dance with the two girls at once. Twirling one as he hugged another.
Harvey, who was an expert womanizer, had to confess that Victor was doing this ‘two girls juggling’ perfectly. He was even tempted to go find some twins and play with them…
Theodore was feeling the same. Was this really his shy son? He sighed and looked at Elena by his side. She was mesmerized by the dance. Theodore pondered if he should take her with Luna to a dance after Victor finished… He couldn’t lose to his son after all!
The twins' dance lasted double the duration of Mira’s and ended with Victor kissing both of them, then slapping their little butts so that they would let go of him and return to their seats with a blush.
“Now, for the girl who stole my heart…. “
“How many girls stole your heart exactly?” one rude guy asked.
“All of them did! It is my fault for leaving it unguarded!” he said with a smile as he hugged Aria, causing many of the unmarried girls in the audience to start having nefarious thoughts.
“Now this is someone you all know… Aria, the current CEO of Horizons Media. When Aria stole my heart… Unlike others, I couldn’t take it back or ask for hers in return, as I thought she was my sister back then!” Victor said as Aria slowly reached his side and took his hand. She was wearing a blue maroon shoulder cut gown, and putting on a diamond necklace. She looked like a noble lady.
“Hsss…” some gasped.
“There was such a thing?” Willow, his maternal grandmother asked as many other attendees who didn’t know the story began to gossip.
“Yes apparently…” Some guy nodded, he heard such rumors.
Iris who was watching sighed, wondering about some very random things… Aria was her replacement after all.
“Now, when I found out that Aria was not my sister due to an unfortunate accident, I was both sad and relieved… Now I could marry her at last!” he said, “That was my first thought!” he added, looking her deep in the eyes.
She couldn’t look at him anymore, so she just buried her face in his chest as they began their slow dance.
“I think they look nice together…” Theodore nodded. He really likes Aria. Unlike most of his sons, and despite having no bloodline she was talented, humble, and polite!
This is perfect for her… she was his daughter-in-law now after all!
“I think so too!” Elena said with a sigh.
The third dance ended with a deep kiss too.
“The next one is a girl I fell in love with at first sight! Monica!” Victor said as Monica who was dressed in a frilled golden dress shyly held his hand.
“Do you fall a lot at first sight?” some rude girl called Mia asked.
“Yes… I always fall at first sight!” Victor replied, “For Monica, it was a very nice summer day when I kidnapped her from the street!”
“WHAT?” Elena asked among others.
“Yes… It was clearly a mistake… A case of mistaken identity!” Victor clarified as if kidnapping people was alright if you got the right person “Ever since then she has suffered from Stockholm syndrome and couldn’t stop following me! So I took advantage of that and proposed to her to marry me! And she accepted” Victor said as the dance started. Monica was not listening, she just breathed heavily as she kept up with him. She was a really good dancer.
“This wedding is taking a dark turn…” Gary said.
“I agree!” his grandfather nodded.
“Don’t worry he is kidding!” Theodore told the nervous Elena and made sure that others heard him. “They go to the same school, he met her there!”
“Oh… I almost had a heart attack!” Elena sighed in relief. Her son is really evil.
Monica’s dance ended quickly as she was no longer able to dance anymore, she had to retreat quickly to her seat after pecking her new husband on the mouth.
Victor chuckled as he turned to the next girl who moved confidently to his side with her sparkly one-piece turquoise-colored dress. She just extended her hand and he took it.
“For Lin it was different… As you may know, I was the fiance of her bitch ‘sister’ Lynda whom I didn’t like… That slut escaped the day I was forced there to go propose by my family, and this was the luckiest thing that ever happened to me… as it allowed me to meet my love… the girl who offered herself as my fiance instead… The girl I fell in love with at first sight, Lin!” he said.
“Again?” April asked.
“Yah…he falls in love a lot apparently…”
“This is getting boring though…”
“I agree…”
“I don’t. I think he is romantic…”
“Shut up!”
“You are just jealous!”
“... True…”
…
“Let’s dance!” Victor told Lin, who took his hand elegantly and stepped forward as the music sound flowed… She made sure to shoot Lily who was standing to the side, a triumphant look that Victor pretended he didn’t notice.
It was a really nice dance, one had to say… Lin was very strong after all, so she managed to force Victor to do some stressful moves that the other girl couldn’t. Like extending to the side while supporting herself with her legs around Victor’s waist, Forcing him to resist falling while keeping with the dance…
In the end, she raised her slender leg and placed it on his shoulder as he held her waist, then she used it as leverage to climb onto his shoulders where she hugged his neck with his legs and then dived into his lips giving him a deep kiss while he carried her… That dance ended abruptly with that. She secretly practiced for this for 2 weeks using poor Gargoyles that she summoned as partners. She broke the necks of 124 of them before she got it right.
Lin tried hard to make the kiss last as long as possible but the sound of her mother clearing her throat three minutes later made her reluctantly do a backflip to the ground where she let go of her husband.
"We will continue this tonight!" she said arrogantly, making her mother frown. Was this her feeble daughter?
Victor smiled, catching his breath then turned to his own slut who didn’t wait for him.
“Now… Let me introduce you to the one and only Margret!” Victor said as Margret took his hand and then stuck her body onto his.
She was wearing a crimson slim dress that had a long cut to the side that reached her thigh, it perfectly matched her braided hair color, making her look hot.
“Did you also fall in love with her at first sight?” Some guy asked.
“For Margret that a No… When I first saw her I had one idea in mind…” Victor said as he began his dance with Margret. “THIS GIRL IS DEFINITELY A SLUT!” he said loudly, making her step on his white leather shoe with her high heels… His shoes were already metal plated, so ignored her.
“Really? She is slut?” Someone asked as Margaret's friends nodded remembering that day at Tom’s birthday party… She was really acting like a slut… Right, Tom… Where was he? Still, in the lady’s room banging some girl?
“No!” Victor said, “I learned the truth about her three days later when we were exploring the ruins near the filming set of the movie Dragon Hero 4… I saw it when she selflessly sacrificed herself to save her friends from a group of perverts. They chased her for a while before I could save her!” Victor said as his mother and everyone else listened closely… There was such a thing? Maybe this girl was not that rotten after all!
“That’s when she threw herself on my chest and began to cry!” Victor said…
No… She was rotten to the core! Everyone thought. This was the oldest trick in the book after all!
Victor ignored them and continued, “I thought she was a pitiful girl. But I didn’t expect her to take the opportunity and grab my unguarded heart at that moment, leaving only a damp shirt in its place!… My heart has been hers ever since, and she is still refusing to let it go, so I chose to marry her in order to get it back from her!” he said, making many looks at him and at Margret who was perfectly dancing with him with some complex eyes. He just confessed to being taken advantage of.
“Would you give me my heart back now?” he asked as he held Margret and moved around while she clung to him.
“No… That’s impossible, I already traded it with some cash at a pawn shop…” she giggled with a smile as she twirled around him. Then turned and stopped behind him, hugging his chest from behind and resting her head on his back.
“Too bad then… I will have to make you work for me until I get something of equal value!” he said, turning her around and slapping her butt … It was a part of the dance.
She just hugged his leg with hers and hugged his neck with her elegant eyes looking him in the eyes as the dance finished.
“How long would that take?” she asked.
“According to your work qualifications and considering your age…. Um, let's see… That would take you about….” he didn’t continue as her mouth covered his.
“Ahm…” Elena cleared her throat 21.3 seconds later, forcing them to let go of each other.
Margret slowly retreated to her seat after pinching Victor’s butt, making sure everyone saw that!
“Ahm… Now… the last girl on today's menu…” Victor said as he slowly walked to Elise’s side and then carried her from her wheelchair making her yelp in embarrassment as she hugged him afraid of falling.
“Don’t worry! I have got you!” Victor said as he began the dance with Elise immediately. He professionally swayed her to a piece of joyful slow music.
“I was not expecting to marry Elise… I wanted her cousin, but her family thought Elise made a good match for me…” he said to everyone… “And now I agree, as I fell in love with her at first sight too!” he said then paused a little as he gave Alpha some secret instructions.
“Isn’t she too young for you?” someone had to ask.
“How old are you?” Victor asked Elise as he twirled her around and caught her again, making her gasp.
“I am 25…” she said with a cheeky smile.
“You heard the girl…” Victor said as Harvey frowned… Wasn’t Elise crying earlier? What the fuck just happened? Was Victor’s skills with women real? Wasn’t he acting all the time?
Gary and April were feeling a little shocked too, though they were a little relieved as they saw Elise’s smile. The girl deserved to be loved!
The dance with Elise was not long, as Victor was technically doing all the dancing.
It ended with a quick kiss… Elise’s first!
So after Victor carefully put Elise back in her wheelchair, he turned to the attendees and bowed as all the brides stood up and walked to his side, bowing beside him.
Everyone clapped, including Master Amon who was affirming the next step of his plan with his bosses.
“Now… Ladies and gentlemen. The dance stage is yours! Enjoy your evening…” Victor said. “This young master has a husband duty to attend to!” he added as he quickly withdrew with the girls.
Now it's time to prepare for the second ceremony, that may mean going through another cliff and filling up a comment section with theories while we wait. Still worth it.
The next chapter or two will be a side story about Mirage and the hot potato... The second ceremony Arc comes next.
@Akaichi more theories on how that will go then.
@Akaichi poor Victor his husband holy duty is delayed because of plot
@Grey_Hat
Parameters recognized: initiating speculation.
What was the purpose of El corrupting the other youths at the table? It feels a bit too planted there. And from what I can tell, the only pill he would be taking would be the bloodline pill. I know El was there for that, but El’s simultaneous cleverness and naïveté should be well known to Victor by now.
When Elena becomes a player is she going to get a heart attack resistance skill?
How are Harvey and Amelia going to react when we see them reflect on this night. Part of me really wants to see if they will put together their mistake before it is revealed to them.
I’m curious about Alpha’s secret instructions. They could be about the wedding and something about Elise, maybe he used the array to give her some other background or something similar. But personally, I think it is more likely to be a last minute plan adjustment for her acquiring more girls from Caspian’s warehouse.
Is Victor going to do the ceremony or blood pill first? I am pretty sure the blood pill might not work if he doesn’t have Elder Dragon blood anymore.
@Definitelyreal Also will he be helping Elsie finish her task first. As for his mother will he wait until Luna gives birth before awakening both of them, not to mention the youth potion.
@Grey_Hat
I don’t remember the youth potion, the closest thing I remember was that healing pill he gave his gave his grandfather that restored his vigor.
He is definitely helping Elise, I expect that it will be done tonight.
@Akaichi i can understand that you just uploaded the chapter but but pls upload next fast you damn author this first time i am dieing to read some damn novel sh*t what a story
@Definitelyreal giving him another 100 years of life.
@Akaichi will he first upgrade his bloodline or bed duty i am confused? Since he is avoiding bed duty to upgrade right ?
@Akaichi So we'll be cockblocked for a while then. Good to know.
@Grey_Hat
Victor will wait for the baby's delivery before making Elena and Luna players.
Not sure if it would have a negative impact on the child during pregnancy
@Xuan-Wu
Also the whole, need to avoid the questions of 'how did you awaken my wives' bit that his Family Elder father would be required to ask.
Also could you imagine Luna and Elena strapping on some armor and going dungeon diving? With their personalities, age, and training?
@Blueneck666 Accident during a family outing, he could have used the book to find a safe enough F rank dungeon and whoops, or the breaching goblin dungeon that is coming soon, he could have some captured for them and they get a stab in.
@Blueneck666
I think Victor will pull it off when his plant in the Van Zwei's family come back with their second awakening artefacts .
"Dad (not father, just to rub it in and annoy him), my double-agent was able to came back with the Van Zwei's awakening artefact. We will be able to use it to help the family. With love, your's trully, your son"
(PS : forgot to tell you I awakened my second and forth mothers.)
Wonder if he can upgrade their system with the new model?
Only need them to become players, not to level up at this stage.
@Xuan-Wu if you are pregnant while you become a player does it become a 2 for 1?
@Blueneck666
I believe the question may be delayed by the now younger Elena and Luna needing tending to. I expect Victor to have a prepared story that while technically possible, would be another blatant scheme that Theodore cannot see the depth of.
@Definitelyreal El is a drunk small child, I'm pretty sure her remarks about the drugs are a prank/dealing with the bad cousins. (I remember bob son of bob is a snake).
Harvey didn't make a mistake, him marrying Elise off was: to protect her, get the knowledge on the awakening scroll, have her in position to draw him in when/if the Von Weiss combust, to be at his side when/if the family doesn't die (he is pretty sure Victor will be an elder or higher). The worst time for Amelia to find out about how she messed up would probably when Victor tells her, 'Lin asked me to spare you when I destroyed your family'.
Alpha's directions are probably rescue related.
The blood pill should be cooking and be done soon and as far as i can tell, the pill needs to be higher quality than the bloodline to upgrade it, the ritual does not need to be higher quality.
I'm more re interested in the dual cultivation bit.
@Akaichi i hope Victor woll have more advantageous position when dealing with people in the future he is already strong enough and has a max authority points
And have an op class that control fate and have his past memories and experience
And he still has to hide himself and be afraid of the sicon i really dont get it
@Momosh It's no good having a gun when the trigger gets stuck, That is what happens with Scions the world lets them win no matter what.
So he has to trick them, for now. If you want him to be OP think about Scions as idiots who never learned about deception because for them there was no need. As a result for someone in the know they can be turned in other directions.
@Momosh His fate isn't strong enough yet to kill scions reliably. But on a side note:
When you dodge a blow, the blow will continue and hit something behind you. Bombs ment to kill you will obviously hit everyone standing next to you. Evil people will intentionally target the people you love to hurt you. This is what Victor fears.
Remember Mina and mana, tom is a scion, and they sacrificed their lives to save his in the original timeline. Victor fears this, that he will be a tom.
In the original timeline, Victor never died. His clan was killed, his parents and siblings were killed, his girlfriend was killed, his wife was killed, his children were killed. Victor buried them all, by himself. Every time he had to bury people he was alone and had no one to mourn with, no one to hold a funeral with. This is what he is trying to prevent, that he fears.
You remember escort missions in video games? How annoying and difficult they are? That is his life, to keep from alerting the monsters as he walks his family through life. And he is afraid to lose even one.
This is one of the things I love about his character, he isn't a perfect scion (or person who thinks he is perfect) Victor knows that he is weak, that the right skill, poison, or attack (Yin nearly killed caspian, at level 0, skills matter) at the right time could easily kill him, or slaughter those he cares about. he works to give them the strength to survive.
@Grey_Hat but he has the strongest class in the entire world and its a fate class too it would be really disappointing if he can't even relay on it to kill a socon
Also sicon is a strong person but his class is definitely stronger but i feel the Arthur always make him look weak just so to prevent him from becoming op
If you don't want him to become op in the first place you don't have to gave him such a strong class or have him a max authority or have go back to the past with all his memories and experience
If you see him becoming op all you have to do is to gave him enemies strong er than him to defeat them and becoming more strong
@Blueneck666 you are right that why im hoping he would have more strength to prevent those who close to him from dieing
And he hardly even go to a dungeon to strengthen himself
@Momosh yup i wanna look to when victor flexing his skill/power in front of everyone ( against a powerful enemy) kicking some asses and making girls impress and shock but depends on author but he is Doing great so far i am enjoying the story
@Bookwarm he is definitely doing great but its too boring to see the mc always afraid and the sicon always come above him or people always calling him a pervert or trash etc...
And I strongly hope he can control his family and not always relay on himself he is a young master he should act like one
@Momosh When he is a dungeon, who is going to protect his girls? Also if he goes publicaly too much, they are going to start the realize that there is no way in hell he is a merchant.
And if he has to create a second fake class of grand illusionist with the skills of how he is able to fake what he obviously fakes. More people might try to kill him/his wives.
@Bookwarm You just described: a scion.
@Blueneck666 you are again right that why i want him to get stronger and control his family its too boring to always be afraid that someone gone kill anyone close to to you there will be always strong people and there will always be enemies after him will he have to afraid all his life its not logical to think like that
Family control is slowly comming to fruition.
First with the Von Gestadlt Spy network.
Second with the girl who will steal thé Von Zwei's artefact.
Look at it this way, a guy during the Pacific War in World War 2 was nicknamed the stupidest US soldier.
He fall overbord his transport, was rescued by the Japanese.
And then sent to prison camp.
He made himself a reputation of a farmer's son, stupid and brainless.
The guy just smart enought to hold a broom...
With the help of an intelligence officier they created a song he learned.
Got released, then went straight to the US command.
The song was a mnemotechnic one, enable him to know :
- name
- surname
- matricule
- unit of origin
- day of capture
- place of capture
For each of the more than 200 inmates...
Because of him, the US were able to get everyone out.
@Momosh
If that is what you are disappointed about, then you missed the part where it was stated he wasn’t going to be able to do that until he got a much stronger fate as the class is mostly passive effects.
You are currently telling me that you are disappointed because he can’t do the thing it was explained he wouldn’t be able to do for a very long time. This was pretty much outright stated in chapter 24, and has been a consistent plot element ever since.
@Blueneck666
The cousins thing makes a good amount of sense.
Victor outright stated (to the audience) that marrying Elise to him was a mistake, as her talents would far outweigh the benefits he would get from marrying her off. Harvey will still benefit, but given that he was already changing Elise’s fate in a way that would prevent what happened in the previous timeline (Harvey will still be alive to protect her), he was loosing out on a major strategic asset.
Ah yes, the Von Rosens, that is a really good line and I am curious about how he will spare Amelia, especially if he plans on recreating the dungeon summoning incident that destroyed them last time. Though if he does recreate it, he might be able to improve his relationship with Alpha by taking her to watch the destruction of the family that destroyed hers all those years ago. Given the way Victor messes with Alpha, he probably wouldn’t tell her what they were doing and play it out like a traditional date up until the Von Rosen house suddenly becomes a dungeon.
I think so as well, but am curious why they happened mid dance. Maybe there was something that changed, or he finally stopped needing her to manage the array.
What rank do you think his bloodline(s) will reach?
The dual cultivation is a complete mystery to me, and I am very curious, but have nothing to go on as this is the first time cultivation has appeared in this story.
@Definitelyreal My guess is he will make it so that Amelia is on the outs with her family so she is uninvited to the ceremony that kills them.
@Grey_Hat
That would work, but given Lin's potential, that might be hard to achieve, especially with the Linda situation having already done all the damage it could possibly do to her.
The only way I can see it right now is if the matriarch finds out Lin didn't use the parasite on Victor, which, unless they have a way of tracking that, would only be possible if Lin outright told them that.
On another note, considering that Lin is several times stronger than Victor, who is already well above missiles in destructive output, I am waiting for Lin to start casually do things like walking through walls, throwing a car at someone, or just sitting there ignoring small arms fire. Basically anything that involves her breaking common sense with brute force.
@Definitelyreal
I agree on the cousins, El is still good enough to handle scammers of that level, drunk.
Great, now I'm imagining a romantic picnic with champagne overlooking the Von Rosen Estate while large t*ntacles burst from the building. Maybe getting Lin's family out through a nice double date between the new in-laws.
Elise is still on good terms with her grandfather, so even though he has 'lost' her she will still talk to him and help him out occasionally. She might even give him advice in Victor situations: "I can't say why, but they are going to have a bad time soon, i do not advise you to invest with them. Just sit back and enjoy." this will be dependent on him following her advice and not getting in Victor's way though.
With the experience of making that first pill, Hana should be able to push it up another rank, with Theta- maybe 2 ranks. I don't think the pill can be too good of a quality based on the ingredients. If the pill upgrade is restricted to the rank of the pill, he might be able to push himself as far as the author wants (SSS or X). If the pill upgrade is restricted to the ingredients, Victor might only end up SS or SSS. It also depends on his hidden bloodline, and whether the ritual would make his bloodlines combine.
Lily will end up with an X ranked bloodline. (might/will summon a world tribulation, if they are sitting in the tub might help everyone else too - X is possible for Victor then)
The only interpretation for Dual Cultivation I have in this system is that sex=experience. which means he may be able to break the level soft cap before the reckoning.

(Dropping the El conversation because I think we are done with that.)
I would want to see it through Alpha’s perspective as she processes what just happened and tries to stop wondering if her next date with Victor will go a similar way.
Given what I understand about the story, I expect Victor to end up with X in every important rank (including the most important skill: Cry on My Chest Babe). With this in mind, unless Victor has another way to upgrade bloodlines later, I think he will get at least one bloodline of his to X.
I like the world tribulation idea, especially because if the Fate Shield can now affect Lily, avoiding it being on cooldown might have been another reason to avoid trying to kill Caspian here.
Maybe on the dual cultivation, it fits with the system, but for some reason I don’t think it will be simply experience. Maybe something involving enhancing each other’s abilities, like gaining some small buff based on the person’s class. Maybe the girls would slowly gain fate from Victor (for those who need it), while Victor could get something like a minor charm skill from Margaret, some minor ability in summoning from Lin, a shadow ability from Lily, and so on. I don’t think this will be what breaks the level cap though, especially because they are now running with the Experience Share turned on. So Lin, Monica, and Mira are going to be power leveling quite a bit.
@Definitelyreal Sorry to ask a dumb question, but who is Monica and how/when did Victor meet her?
@Kurumi69 she would drive around town and had unlucky stuff happen to her. Crash her car when she witnessed Victor throw a grenade into a car that was pulling up with an Uzi to kill him, stuff like that. she actually stumbled onto the trapped demon painting plot. she had a painting and it turned one of her 'friends' into a demon. (he got away, invited her to demon cruise ship plot). Victor kidnapped her to check if she was a demon and her bloodline made her go into heat next to him. So he wanted her, technically stole her from her fated one (Tom). Whole plot with her dad.
Victor found an awakening artifact that will only work on awakened Butterfly bloodlines in her house (so her only) she goes to his school, regular class (not elite, she isn't a player yet).
@Blueneck666 Thanks.
@Blueneck666 Dragon Butterfly Bloodline.The awakening stone is for any butterfly bloodline. The Dragon part is why she reacts to Victor.
@Blueneck666 well Luna is only like 24 or 25. And has anyone else noticed she has the same last name as Iris's adoptive family? She may be related to the blue phantom thief, so she may have some skills, or the author just ran out of last name ideas.
