My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires.

Chapter 686: Duality.

Yama, who was watching this from a distance, spoke:

"Aya … This just got even more complicated."

"We're going to lose, aren't we?"

"Yes, indeed," Merlin commented casually.

"Well, fuck. What now?"

"Hmm, run?" Merlin suggested casually.

"Good idea." Yama nodded casually.

"Cough, I'm sorry, Demon King Diablo."

"What!?" Diablo looked at Yama with irritation visible on his face.

"Since you are currently not the 'demon king of biblical hell', the deal I made with you is completely void… So stay alive?"

A portal appeared behind Yama, and soon he, along with his generals, jumped into it, effectively fleeing the battlefield and abandoning Diablo in the process.

"What-." Before Diablo could react to Yama's sudden betrayal, he heard a scream of pain, which made everyone look toward the source of the scream.

Soon they saw it, two succubi piercing Baal's body with their bare hands.

"Cough... Lily...? Why...?"

"It's nothing personal, Baal. You are simply no longer useful to me."

Rather than getting angry, Baal laughed, "… Hahaha … Quite a demonic attitude, isn't it? Did our marriage mean nothing to you?"

"Really, Baal? Acting like the tragic victim after so long in the game?" She snarled and increased her Dark Light output even more, which made Baal's body writhe in pain:

"Don't play the victim. You know we don't really marry for 'love' but for mutual benefit."

"You would have the offspring of Lilith and Lucifer as a wife; thus, your title as 'Rank 1' would be eternal, and I would have the influence of that title for myself, consequently pushing away all other pesky suitors."

"But that's changed, and I don't need your influence anymore. Today, I'm bigger than you." Lily's sadistic smile grew.

A smile Baal knew all too well.

"Hahaha, demonic to the end, huh." Baal laughed as the 'life' drained from his body.

Helena, seeing that the chat was over, broke the vial she placed on Baal's chest, a vial that contained Victor's blood.

Soon she withdrew her hand from Baal's body and looked at her king.

Victor didn't react to Helena's gaze and just controlled his blood inside Baal, turning Baal's body into a small ball of blood.

A feat he could do quickly because his blood was in Baal's body.

Suddenly other screams were heard, and everyone looked around and saw Vine and Vepar killing the remaining elites of Diablo's army. Soon the same things happened to these elites, as they became balls of blood.

Helena took the blood sphere, and together with Lily, the two disappeared from where they were and went in front of Victor, as the two immediately kneeled.

In the next moment, Vepar and Vine appeared in front of Victor as well.

"Here, My King." Helena, Vine, and Vepar reached out as they spoke in unison.

"Hmm, good work, My generals. As always, your work is impeccable." Victor brought the balls of blood towards his mouth and swallowed them.

Helena, Vine, and Vepar showed small, satisfied, and proud smiles:

"Your words fill me with deep happiness, My King." They spoke in unison again.

Victor nodded, satisfied.

"You too, Lily. Great job. Honestly, I thought you weren't capable of this."

"I would do anything for you, My King. After all, you gave me what I wanted most in my entire existence." Lily spoke still with her head down.

"I see … It's nice to know I have someone as loyal as you around." Victor gently touched Lily's face, and he smiled seductively.

"By killing your husband, you completed your last mission. And just as promised, you will become my fourth general, Lily."

"I expect great things from you."

A blush appeared on Lily's face, and her breathing got a little slurred:

"Y-Yes."

Diablo soon found himself surrounded by Victor's entire army, an angry goddess, and a dragon who looked at him with disdain on its face.

His body visibly shook, and he clenched both hands tightly; veins were visible on his forehead, and the incarnation of evil was furious.

And watching everything that happened in those last few seconds, seeing the betrayal of not only his dragon and Yama but also the loss of his doll and the death of his most useful subordinates.

Followed by a group of demons looking at him like he was prey, something in him snapped.

"Damn worms!!" His power exploded skyward.

"Who do you think you're looking at? I'm Diablo! The incarnation of evil!"

Hundreds of years of planning went to waste because of a single individual, all because of that accursed man sitting on that accursed throne!

All because of Alucard!

[He's definitely blaming you now.] Roxanne laughed.

[HAHAHAHAHA, look at his expression, it's the face of someone who blames an individual for all the mistakes they made.]

[In my opinion, it's a very unreasonable guilt. He's acting as if I single-handedly upset all his plans, which is not true.] Victor replied.

[Hardly anyone angry is rational, Darling.] Roxanne spoke, and Victor couldn't help but agree with her.

The miasma that Diablo was releasing seemed to create its own singularity around him, and a sense of fear began to be felt by everyone.

"Alucard -." Diablo was going to do something, but an angry goddess appeared in front of him.

"You Talk too much."

Slap!

A thunderous slap was heard, and Diablo flew toward the ground.

Soon all the 'fear' in the air disappeared, making Victor's subordinate demons breathe a sigh of relief.

"I have a lot of grudges that not even your death will wash away." Lilith appeared on Diablo's head and stomped on his face.

The gleam in the demon goddess's eyes was quite visible.

"I will get revenge for everything you put me through, you bug."

"You will not die an easy death."

Diablo snarled as his eyes flashed, and a corrosive red miasma began to cover his body. Lilith quickly jumped back and looked down at her feet which were almost burned by the miasma.

"For a whore, you are getting cocky, Lilith."

"Don't you remember what happened last time?" He attacked with his claws destroying everything in the direction of the swipe.

Lilith dodged the attack and slashed Diablo's arm with her sword. Soon after, Diablo's arm began to regenerate at high speed.

"Very arrogant attitude for someone who needs to kidnap my most loyal soldiers to brainwash them into betraying me." Lilith dodged the attack.

"Good words coming from a piece of trash who needs help from a greedy whore to subdue me." She kicked his face and sent a massive wave of Miasma from her hand.

An explosion ensued as Lilith's miasma hit Diablo.

"Admit it, Diablo. You only have subordinates who are loyal to you because they are afraid of you, but from behind, they are slandering your entire miserable existence."

"You tried so hard to be like Lucifer that, in the end, you just became a pathetic existence."

"Even someone thousands of years younger than you has acquired the loyalty of demons, something you could only do with just my foolish daughter's husband."

"Hah, better to rule by fear than sleep with the whole army to gain their loyalty."

Lilith's eyes flashed even more dangerously.

"I have standards, Diablo. Why do you think I only have one daughter? It's because I choose only the strongest as my lover."

"Unlike you, who is a eunuch who has never touched a female demon… Oh, I remember, you don't like women. Tell me, are you passive or active in the relationship? Knowing your personality, I bet you have a submissive side that you try to hide from everyone, so you must be the passive one."

"Bitch!!"

"Worm!!"

BOOOOOOOOM!

The two demons started fighting and destroying everything around them. It was obvious that they weren't holding back.

[Wow, that turned into a child's fight pretty quickly, huh.] Roxanne exclaimed as she heard Alter's laughter.

"Helen, dear, order all demons to return to hell."

Helena's cheeks turned slightly red when she heard the way Victor spoke to her. She lowered her head and said:

"Yes, My King."

"Before that." Victor waved his hand, and his allied demons, who fell in battle, began to revive.

'Hmm, that took more energy than I thought.'

[It's because you didn't use souls as payment, but negative energy, demons essentially cannot die as long as they don't get hit by damage that can harm souls or holy elements.]

[But I didn't spend that much energy when summoning my legions of demons.]

[Summoning is different from resurrecting, Vic. And know that you can only summon demons because you have negative energy. If it weren't for that, you'd have to use souls like Diablo.]

[Did I mention how lucky I am to have you?] Victor smiled.

[Always, but it's good to cherish me.]

[Of course.]

As the fight continued, all the fighting demons began to evacuate. As they all passed through the gate, Victor made another hand gesture, and the massive miasma in the air began to be sucked back into Hell, effectively cleansing a good part of the area.

Of course, that didn't count the Miasma being released by Lilith and Diablo.

Soon Victor waved his hand again, and the gates of hell were closed.

He rested his hand on his chin and said:

"Hey, dude, can you isolate that battle?" Victor looked up at the sky.

"... Are you talking to me?" A silhouette of someone completely covered in white light appears in front of Victor.

"Who do you think I'm talking to? Are you seeing someone else here?"

"… You know that I am a God King, right? Leader of the angels? The god of the bible?"

"And? What is the point?"

"A little respect, perhaps?"

Victor just smiled in amusement, "You know I'm the king of hell, right? Essentially your 'evil' counterpart, as humans say." He snorted at the end.

"And unlike my incompetent predecessors, I am the true King of Hell, someone that the Dimension of Hell itself has chosen and which it is fervently supporting."

"That is, in the biblical pantheon, I am on the same level as you, the being who was chosen by the dimension of paradise as its king, only unlike you who are 'good', I am 'bad'."

"I bet you remember the story of duality."

"You're a good cop, and I'm a bad cop."

"You are creation, and I am destruction, etc."

"...." Grunts were heard about brats who have no respect, and soon a golden energy isolated Lilith and Diablo.

"Oh, enjoy your time here, and try to cleanse these lands of miasma. That's something I can't do."

"I'll let my angels take care of it when this mess is over."

"Oh yes? Okay, Then."

The Heavenly Father looked at Victor with strange eyes. He never interacted with a demon king who... Well, didn't want to kill him, or kill all humans, etc.

To be honest, it was quite a refreshing feeling to have a King of Hell interacting with him quite casually.

Vine, Vepar, Lily, and Helena just looked at their king with even more adoration on their faces.

That was The Heavenly Father, you know? The man Lucifer had an eternal childish quarrel with, and the man Lilith hated for so many reasons! He had been present since the beginning of creation!

And Victor treated him like he was the next-door neighbor he's known for a long time!

Victor looked towards Scathach, Aphrodite, Kaguya, and Natashia.

As if understanding his look, the four women quickly appeared in front of him.

"Vic!" Natashia wasted no time and quickly hugged him.

Next were Kaguya and Aphrodite.

"Hey … I missed you guys so much." Victor squeezed the three of them tightly in his arm.

The four generals didn't react much. After all, they were already informed of their king's wives, which didn't make any difference to them. Their loyalty was with Victor and with Victor alone.

But that doesn't mean they wouldn't treat them well. Like it or not, they were their king's wives, and respect was required... Or heads would roll, literally speaking, of course.

'Oh...? A Demon King who knows how to love... Interesting, it looks like I won't have to worry about hell for quite some time.' The Heavenly Father felt an invisible weight lifted from his shoulders.

With just this interaction and display of love, Heavenly Father's opinion of Victor increased several times because, unlike his predecessors, who were very arrogant, crazy megalomaniacs, the current king seemed to be more reasonable, and he knew love.

Something none of the ancient Demon Kings were able to have.

"Vic... You've gotten so much stronger." Scathach's gaze was practically piercing Victor's body.

Now that she was closer to him, she could feel it with her entire being, the amount of power that Victor was hiding.

'Vlad is very wrong... Completely wrong... Only Zeus level? That rapist is a dog in front of Vic. HAHAHAHA~ what a joke! Lilith is stronger than Zeus, and he showed nothing when he faced her.' Even though the demon goddess was weakened by her controlled state.

'He became one of the highest-ranked beings in the supernatural world in the time he stayed in Hell.' Scathach was holding back very much from attacking Victor and fighting him now.

"I didn't spend my 700 years in hell doing nothing, my dear teacher," Victor said as he hugged the three women even closer with his eyes closed.

"What …?" Scathach opened her eyes wide.

"700! Vic, how can time pass so quickly!?" Natashia asked worriedly.

"Apparently, the more Hell develops, the more Miasma accumulation increases, thus increasing time dilation due to miasma intensity."

'700 years… 700 years!! Perhaps I should voice my opinions on his power level until I personally fight him or see him use all of his.' In 700 years, a lot can change, especially for a freak like Victor.

… That thought only made Scathach even more excited.

"Hell developed…? You talk like hell has turned into a metropolis or something." Aphrodite narrowed her eyes.

Victor just smiled softly as he stroked Kaguya and Natashia's heads:

"You have no idea."

"... That smile, you did something, didn't you, Vic?"

"As if it wasn't obvious." Kaguya snorted in a rather spoiled way, "I wouldn't be surprised if hell had turned into a futuristic city or something."

"Hey, you're putting too much credit on me. I didn't do everything myself; I spent most of my time training. My generals did everything along with my subordinates."

"But without the power and respect of your name, My King. Nothing would be possible." Vine spoke casually.

"Indeed." Lily, Vepar, and Helena nodded in agreement with Vine.

"..." Victor only smiled gently when he heard the generals' words.

"… Wait, you didn't deny it!" Aphrodite opened her eyes wide.

"Well, I didn't say it was 'futuristic', but let's just say hell has changed a lot compared to before."

"… Can I visit Hell sometime?" Heavenly Father asked curiously.

"Are you asking me for permission?"

"You are the king, and hell is your jurisdiction."

"Make sense … You can come if you want."

"Okay, I will in the future."

"Speaking of jurisdiction, one of them includes the Ruler you choose as well… Will you choose a Ruler, or will you become the Ruler?"

"I appointed someone I can trust, and I don't like being trapped in one location. Becoming the Ruler would force me to become the subordinate of these primordial entities, and I don't do well with authorities."

"Hmm." Heavenly Father's interest increased again.

'He gives up power so easily? Interesting.' It looks like he really won't have many worries in the future regarding hell.

"Father!" Ariel, Cassiel, and the Angel of Death landed in front of Heavenly Father.

"Oh, I'm glad you arrived. You can put a barrier there." Victor pointed to Lilith and Diablo fighting.

"Eh?"

"They are about to take the fight to another level, and when two beings with the same power as a God King fight, Earth will only suffer. This simple barrier will not hold for long."

"… A King of Hell worrying about Earth…?" Cassiel spoke while looking as if Victor were a rare animal.

"Unfortunately, we don't have the energy to support such a large barrier to minimize damage," Ariel spoke more cordially. Despite the man's affiliation being 'evil', he had helped her once, and she wasn't ungrateful.

"Haah, I'll do it then."

"Girls, please?"

"Mm." Kaguya, Natashia, and Aphrodite nodded and walked away from Victor.

"Hey, Good Guy, help me out here."

"Respect the -." the angel of death was about to start to speak in annoyance but stopped when he felt Victor's gaze.

"I will respect whoever I want, Angel."

"You have no authority here."

Unconsciously the angel of death got into a battle position and leaped towards Victor, but all he saw was a red flash and the noise of lightning, and then he felt a sharp claw on his neck.

"H- huh?"

"...Red lightning..." Natashia muttered in shock.

'I didn't even see what happened... What is this mutation in his power?'

"Aphrodite … Scathach is really freaking me out right now." Kaguya whispered.

The goddess of beauty looked at Sacathach and slightly cringed at the expression she was making.

The woman looked like a crazed maniac, and she was clearly barely holding back.

'Her love and obsession level is growing exponentially. Has Victor's change affected her that much?' Aphrodite thought.

"Demon King, release him, please. My son is just very loyal."

"Loyalty is good, Good Guy. But discipline is also important."

"Especially in a conversation between two Kings."

"Look at my generals. Despite wanting to intervene, they stood by waiting for my orders."

The heavenly father looked at the four women who were looking with murderous eyes at the angels but still did not intervene.

"That's discipline. You should have that in your army too."

"…I will keep that in mind."

"I hope so. Having someone too arrogant and who thinks they can only be ordered by the leader is just detrimental to the army." Victor turned away from the man and floated towards the heavenly father.

Completely ignoring the man's gaze on him.

"Unlike before, don't use holy light. Instead, focus on the positive energy, and I'll follow through." Victor pointed his hand toward the demons.

"Very Well." The man followed Victor's gesture, and soon white and golden energy began to form in his hand.

Red and dark energy began to form in Victor's hand; clearly, the energies the two men were holding were complete opposites of each other.

"Remember, Demon King. Balance is the answer."

"I know, Angel King."

"... I'm not an angel."

"And I am not a demon."

"Fair enough." The man chuckled lightly, something that took the nearby angels completely by surprise.

Soon two beams of energy shot toward the two demons, then midway through, the energies started to mix and hit the barrier.

The barrier grew wider, and it became much stronger than before. Even if the attacks hit the barrier, it didn't even tremble.

'What precise power control... Impressive.' The heavenly father thought in awe.

"Now, the planet won't suffer too much damage," Victor said as he returned to his throne and sat down. Right after that, he took Kaguya and Natashia and placed them in his lap.

[Now, wait?] Roxanne asked.

[Indeed... Soon, Diablo will reach his limit, and that's when we intervene.] Victor's smile grew a little.

[And with that, you'll get the fight you wanted so much, huh... Acting like a true hunter.] Alter chuckled.

[I didn't spend 700 years in hell training so that when I get out of hell, I'll have an unsatisfying fight. Diablo will dance with me whether he likes it or not.]

[ Pfft... HAHAHAHAHA! Did I mention I'm loving your attitude? That's a real fucking King!]
