My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires.

Chapter 684: A new player joins the war. 2

Diablo, for all his rage, had only one thing on his mind.

'How?... How did he just 'walk through' the gate? How did he not have to sacrifice anything?' Victor's casual act completely shattered Diablo's worldview.

'Just how is that possible? What does he have?' Diablo frantically wanted to know the answer.

'Is it because he is not a Devil? Yes,  that has to be it.' There was no other plausible explanation.

But such a thought did not last long when a Succubus passed through the gate and stood behind Alucard like a good servant, soon after two more women came out of the portal, a taller woman with a large axe and the other woman with blue skin, horns, and wings.

The power that Succubus wielded was on par with Diablo's strongest elites, not to mention the ancient pillar demons that grew even stronger by rivaling Baal.

Again, the Demon King was compelled to ask.

'HOW!? The women are clearly demons and high-level ones, so how did they just 'walk through' the gate!?' Diablo didn't know what was going on, but he would find out because if he could access the world outside of Hell easily, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.

Suddenly, Diablo's irritation increased even more when he realized that this usurper had something he didn't, something that should rightfully be his as king.

...

The man took a deep breath.

"Ahh ~, it feels so good to breathe the air of the world of the living again." He spoke with a smile.

"Doesn't it?" He looked at the demons with a big smile, and slowly his face started to distort until only a dark red being out of the depths of hell stood in front of them.

Victor's body was completely covered by this distorted form, he floated in the sky, and his dark red power exploded into a pillar of energy soaring into the heavens.

"Holy father, just how much power does he have…?" Ariel swallowed hard. She couldn't even imagine that this was the same man who had saved her from death.

The amount of malevolence inside him was ridiculous, and the angels couldn't even approach the battlefield anymore. It was as if that place was a part of hell itself, and what caused it was all that man and his power.

"... So much negativity... It's like I'm in hell itself... " For the first time, something in Diablo changed, and an apprehensive look appeared on his face as he looked at that man.

'Did I underestimate him so much?'

"This is not good… This is definitely not good." Yama spoke in a very serious tone.

"I completely agree with you, My King," Merlin commented with a look of admiration.

'So much energy, it's like an endless well. Just what is it?' Merlin knew very well 'who' he was, but he really wanted to know 'what' he was. After all, an existence that could contain so much power inside a tiny body was definitely not normal.

"My legions of demons from the deepest places of hell."

"It's time for fun."

ROOOOOOOOOOOAR!

Several demonic roars were heard simultaneously, the atmosphere grew heavy, and it became very difficult to breathe on the entire battlefield.

The miasma grew so much that even the Angel of Death had to move away.

"It's time to paint this war with our colors..."

"The colors of hundreds of thousands of legions of demons commanded by me." A dark liquid started pouring out of Hell's Gate, spreading all over the battlefield.

"Impossible… That is pure miasma." Diablo commented in shock. Yes, he knew it existed, and in the deepest places of Hell, you can see 'rivers' of miasma, but he never knew it could be controlled.

The miasma was so ominous and dense that the weakest of Diablo's demons were even dying just by touching this miasma and breathing in it.

"Just… Just what have you done to my hell, Alucard!?"

"I made it better."

"Arise, my demons."

Hundreds of thousands of red eyes appeared in the miasma river, and creatures began to emerge from it.

"It's time for war."

With that statement, absolute chaos began. Demons started to come out of the miasma scattered on the ground, and more demons started to come out of the gate.

Hundreds of thousands of demons suddenly infest every battlefield.

And each of these demons were as strong or more than an elite demon. There were no minions here, Victor doesn't allow mediocrity, or you become stronger, or you die trying.

Scathach's philosophy was quite imprinted in his mind, and it was this philosophy that forced these demons to evolve and become stronger. Of course, the 'small' boost he gave contributed a lot.

...

"Holy god, just what am I seeing…?" Ariel was incredulous.

"Holy fuck, this is insane. What is this man?" Uriel spoke.

"Language, Brother!" Ariel growled.

"Fuck the language. Look at that and try to act normal." Uriel pointed at the literal chaos that had taken place in front of them.

"These lands will need hundreds of years to recover from so much miasma if it recovers..." Cassiel commented.

"This is not the time to worry about the lands, but what we must do." Uriel pointed.

"That man, Alucard. He basically kicked us out of the war and took it upon himself."

"It's no longer light against darkness, but darkness against darkness."

Alucard's darkness is like a crimson abyss of negativity and depravity, and Diablo looks like a child in front of him... Just how is it possible for someone to tempt negative energy into his body?" He shuddered.

[Father, what should we do?] Ariel asked after absorbing Uriel's words.

[... Nothing.]

[ Huh?]

[That man is going down the path that will become my complete opposite... If I am the god of creation, light, and positivity. He will be a god of destruction, darkness, and negativity.]

Ariel opened her eyes wide: [B- But, that's impossible, right? He is still very young.]

[The seed of divinity is still a tiny sprout, but it's definitely there... And growing at a ridiculous rate, as if someone or something is purposefully 'watering' the seed with nutrients; the only thing I can think of is the tree of negativity living in hell. She must have helped him somehow...]

[Father, you seem very convinced that this will happen, why?]

[Because that's what happened once in the past... Although it was the world tree of positivity that helped the individual.]

[... What should we do then?]

[Do not interfere, help the angels heal, prepare to interfere at any time in the war, and most importantly, Watch the new King's actions. We need to know what kind of person he is. Having so much power in his hand will make the individual quite ambitious... And that's dangerous.]

Taking orders from her father, Ariel began to do as she was told.

...

"HAHAHAHAHA~" Scathach was laughing like crazy, and her laughter was making Alexios uncomfortable.

'Has she gone completely crazy for good?' Alexios thought.

"This is amazing! Look at this!" She pointed excitedly at the chaos going on.

"Look at that man!" She pointed at Victor.

"My god, he's perfect~" She placed both hands on her cheeks and smiled even wider; the crazy glint in her eyes was very worrying.

... For Alexios, at least.

Vlad, Kaguya, Aphrodite, and Natashia just ignored it like this was normal. [What was. At least when it came to Scathach's reaction to Victor.]

"Incredible... His soul is immaculate." Aphrodite spoke with clear shock and relief on her face.

"What do you mean?" Kaguya asked.

"When Victor appeared, I felt our connection reestablishing, and I could see his soul, and despite having so much negativity and malevolence within his body, his soul is not corrupted."

"Which is an amazing thing. After all, he was in the deepest hell and consuming demons, something should have changed, but nothing did."

"In fact, his soul is glowing even brighter than ever."

'Roxanne protected his soul very well.' Aphrodite thought in relief.

"... He's gone through adulthood," Vlad muttered as he looked at Victor.

"When vampires change into adulthood, we are basically reborn into a stronger body, we 'eat' our previous body, and produce a better body. This whole process is done automatically in a cocoon."

"And Victor was already strong before, but when he becomes an adult... I assume he is already at the level of Scathach and with the possibility of fighting stronger opponents thanks to his wide arsenal of weapons and souls inside him." Vlad narrowed his eyes.

'He has become more powerful than I could have imagined.'

Scathach didn't even bother to refute Vlad. Her smile, expression, and reaction indicated everything everyone needed to know that Vlad was correct.

Vlad tried to look into Victor's soul, and he opened his eyes in utter shock. The amount of souls inside him was incalculable.

'How is his soul holding up...? Even for a Progenitor, there is only so much we can absorb... Ah, the world tree...'

'No wonder he can use miasma and has so much negative energy.'

"I don't think you need to intervene, Vlad," Natashia commented in amusement with full focus on the floating man.

"...." Vlad's face tightened a little at Natashia's remark.

'... Haaah... This man keeps giving me a headache... Well, at least now, I have a strong ally to fight the Elder Gods... But I need to strengthen this alliance.'

Vlad couldn't help but find his own thoughts ironic. He wanted to push Victor away, and now he wanted him as an ally.

"Whatever he became… It's good to see my husband back." Kaguya spoke.

A small happy smile appeared on the girls' faces when they heard what Kaguya said. Even Scathach herself stopped reacting like a crazy maniac and regained her composure, although her eyes shining at Victor's image was quite noticeable.

"That is true. I'm glad he's back." Aphrodite smiled even more gently.

"It's good that our plan worked. That time when Diablo was alone and distracted was the best opportunity to act." Natashia spoke.

"Hmm." Kaguya nodded and added:

"It's a pity I can't go to him now... That miasma will kill me."

"Perhaps there is something Victor can do that will neutralize this miasma or make us resistant to it," Aphrodite spoke.

"That is impossible-." Vlad was going to speak but was cut off by Scathach :

"This is Victor we're talking about." The redhead smiled more gently.

"Nothing is impossible for him."

"...." Vlad just raised his eyebrow at that show of confidence.

'They completely trust him, huh.'

...

Demonic beasts of different shapes, whether flying or grounded, rushed forward, tearing Diablo's entire army apart.

Demons of different shapes and sizes followed suit, everything being killed and destroyed with a brutality and momentum worthy of a true demon.

The legions attacked without fear or mercy, and death was all that followed.

Long ago, Diablo ordered his elites to attack, and some did, but... Some smarter elites simply took the moment to flee.

Like the Sin of Sloth, she was lazy but not stupid.

Using her miasma she used a technique that made her disappear into the miasma.

As a demon that was born in the lowest places of hell, this was a passive ability of hers. Sloth was very used to swimming in the river of miasma. After all, she was born from that river.

Diablo was losing and fast.

He was also losing Yama's help. It was obvious that Yama was not going to throw his demons into a meaningless war.

With irritation, Diablo looked at the dragon and spoke:

"Kill him, now!" He pointed at Alucard.

The dragon that was flying in the sky flew towards Alucard, and the demons and flying beasts were not able to stop it.

ROOOOOOOOOAR!

A thunderous roar drew Victor's attention as he turned in a rather bored fashion to the Dragon charging towards him.

"Open the way." Victor, who was already back to his normal form, ordered the demons.

And Victor's order was like a divine proclamation to them. Without wasting time, the order was followed with maximum efficiency.

Soon a space was created for Victor and the dragon.

"Vine, take command for now."

"Yes, My King."

Victor raised his hand toward the dragon, which glowed with red power. Then, with a single gesture of lowering his hand, it was as if gravity multiplied several times in the dragon's body.

The dragon lost its balance and fell to the ground with its limbs splayed out. Due to the weight of the dragon itself, its body dragged on the ground until its snout was right in front of Victor.

Victor jumped up, stood on top of the dragon's snout, and looked him straight in the eyes.

"Submission or Death, choose." Victor's voice sent an ominous chill through everyone around them.

The dragon's body shuddered when he felt that man's gaze. Even though he was proud, and he didn't want to lower his head, something he didn't even do for Diablo, he didn't want to die either. He knew that man could give a death that would hit him so fast that he wouldn't even know what had happened.

The dragon closed its eyes, and the will to fight emptied from its eyes.

"Good." The man smiled widely.

He stroked the dragon's head somewhat gently:

"You and I will do great things, my friend."

The dragon opened its eyes a little. 'Friend?' He thought with a strange feeling to those words. He didn't understand what they meant, but it sounded surprisingly good.

Victor looked at the dragon, satisfied, "Diablo, indeed, is a very kind demon. He gave me such a nice gift, and I really appreciate it."

"...." Veins popped in Diablo's head when he heard what Victor said. The only reason he didn't spit blood right now in his rage was because he wasn't human.
