Chapter 779: I Changed My Mind.

”I see... So it went as I expected,” said Persephone.

”Yes. Nyx was with The Demon Kingʼs group, but from what I could see, theyʼre not necessarily allies, but rather as if theyʼre pursuing a common goal,” replied Thanatos.

Persephone remained silent for a few seconds as she thought, ʼWhat is Nyx planning this time?ʼ She knew very well how manipulative The Primordial Gods could be.

She had been a victim of that manipulation once herself. Fortunately, Nyxʼs attempt to manipulate her was completely futile due to Nyxʼs lack of foresight, thinking that she wouldnʼt gain much Power.

Upon receiving this report from Thanatos, she could only see that Nyx was manipulating this group in some way. But at the same time, she believed that this group wouldnʼt be foolish enough to fall for Nyxʼs tricks. After all, Aphrodite was there, and despite her dislike for the woman for various reasons, she knew very well that Aphrodite wasnʼt stupid.

The Goddess of Beauty, desired by all, could be just as manipulative or even worse than The Primordial Gods. After all, she had her Charm to influence the minds of everyone. Thinking about it now, maybe it was Aphrodite who was manipulating the group?

Perhaps it would be an easy feat for Aphrodite. Few Beings had the ability to resist her Charm, and according to what she had heard from Thanatos, the current group didnʼt possess that kind of ability.

ʼMaybe only Nyx has that capability, but itʼs still debatable,ʼ Persephone thought.

Even The Second Progenitor was probably being controlled by her...

Persephone shook her head from side to side. ʼWhy am I caring again? He made it clear that he hated me. Whether heʼs being controlled or not is his problem, not mine,ʼ she scoffed.

Whether it was Aphrodite or Nyx who was controlling this group, in the end, it didnʼt matter. It was a fact that this group was quite dangerous, especially the Mortal, Scathach Scarlett. Just by hearing Thanatosʼ description of her attack and the new biome that had formed on the horizon, she could grasp the magnitude of that womanʼs strength.

And during that explanation, Persephone never imagined she would see a hint of fear in The Personification of Death itself. It was a small feeling, but it definitely existed there.

ʼIf that attack had been infused with The Concept of END or The Concept of Soul that I wield... I would have lost a very competent subordinate.ʼ Persephone decided that she wouldnʼt risk sending any other Beings to this group; it would be counterproductive. She chose to use a more subtle approach that had been discussed earlier with Hecate.

”MOTHER, YOU PIECE OF SHIT, I WILL KILL YOU!” Nemesisʼs scream shattered the silent atmosphere along with a deafening explosion.

Thanatos and Persephone looked at each other for a long minute before sighing simultaneously.

”Can you take care of her this time?” Persephone asked.

”Iʼm afraid thatʼs impossible. Nemesis was banished from my motherʼs sight as if she were a small child, and that only made her even more furious,” Thanatos kept to himself the fact that he felt a slight anger toward his mother as well.

BOOOOOOOOM!

”At least make her stop destroying my castle, or Iʼll have to punish her,” Persephone ordered.

”Thatʼs easy to do,” agreed Thanatos, promptly leaving the Throne Room.

Watching the departure of her most trusted subordinate, Persephone sighed and leaned back on her Throne.

”I hope Hecate succeeds in her mission...” she murmured.

...

While Persephone dealt with her own problems in The Greek Underworld, Victor was having a conversation with a World Tree.

Engaging in a deeper discussion with Aurora about the alliance, Victor saw no drawbacks in aligning himself with her. The only thing he was required to do was to protect her planet in the event of an invasion.

In return, she would keep him informed of everything her sisters said to her and even teach Roxanne how to be a better World Tree because, currently, ʼshe was a failure as a World Tree.ʼ Those were Auroraʼs exact words.

This tactless comment made Roxanne narrow her eyes slightly, feeling a bit annoyed. Having her abilities questioned was quite irritating, but since they were having an important conversation, Roxanne decided not to let her feelings interfere.

Fortunately, she didnʼt need to say anything because she had her Husband to do it for her. And he could be more protective and dangerous than Roxanne herself.

”Oh? Why do you think she is a failure?” Victor asked with a gleam in his eyes that sent chills down everyoneʼs spines.

Aurora swallowed hard and chose her words carefully: ”... Sheʼs not utilizing her Powers properly. Itʼs understandable. After all, she never had contact with her sister from her planet, so she was never taught how to use those Powers correctly.”

”But donʼt World Trees acquire that knowledge like Dragons do?”

”Yes, they do acquire it. But itʼs the responsibility of The World Tree of Positivity to teach her sister, who will be born right after her so that Balance on the planet is maintained. Itʼs one of our duties. Why do you think Aria is always with me?”

Victor and Roxanne momentarily looked at Aria, who had been gazing at the clouds as if gazing upon something very interesting, then turned their attention back to Aurora. Victor could understand Auroraʼs argument.

Simply put, when Roxanne met Victor, she deviated from her natural course and grew without the common sense that a World Tree should have. That common sense was supposed to be taught by The World Tree of Positivity, who was revered by The Elder Gods of Nightingale.

Just the thought of Roxanne falling into the hands of The Elder Gods made Victorʼs blood boil. Even though nothing was shown outwardly, his possessive feelings ran rampant within him.

Roxanne, who was nearby, felt those emotions and smiled sweetly. It was always a pleasure for her to feel Victorʼs feelings towards her.

It showed how much he valued her.

[Roxanne, what do you think?] Victor asked for Roxanneʼs opinion; after all, she was one of the parties involved in the conversation.

And this simple question made Roxanneʼs already sweet heart experience a surge of intense joy. These small considerations and attention from Victor made her insides twist, further fueling her desire to take him to the bedroom and engage in nighttime activities.

Holding back from letting her smile grow, she internally responded.

[I think itʼs a good idea... Although itʼs annoying to see her doubting my abilities, I donʼt deny that Iʼm not very proficient in using my Powers. After all, I had to learn everything on my own.]

Victor inwardly nodded upon hearing Roxanneʼs words, knowing exactly what she was talking about. During his 700 years of training, he often helped Roxanne with tips on controlling her Energy.

Although they were quite basic tips as he didnʼt exactly understand how she felt.

To put into perspective how different they were in terms of Energy, it was something like this: Victorʼs Energy was the size of an earth-sized planet, while Roxanneʼs Energy was like a star the size of the Sun.

Of course, this was just a rudimentary example to demonstrate how different Roxanne and Victorʼs Energy ”output” capacity was. After all, neither of them had enough Energy to equal a star in the universe.

With Roxanneʼs agreement, Victor was perfectly fine with accepting the agreement.

”Very well...” Just as Victor was about to accept the agreement, Volk interrupted him.

”Wait. Throughout the entire conversation, I havenʼt heard where the Werewolves fit into this agreement.” Volk didnʼt care if he was interrupting Victor or not. As a King, he needed to prioritize his people. Upon realizing that this agreement didnʼt necessarily apply to Samar, he decided to intervene.

Tasha and Maya facepalmed and sighed in unison, witnessing Volkʼs behavior.

They wondered why he couldnʼt be a little more patient. They understood perfectly well how he felt, but at the same time, they knew they would have several opportunities to enter the agreement through private conversations or even a direct agreement with Victor, who would do all the work.

The fact that Volk was rushing and interrupting a negotiation between two important Beings was not just rude but offensive.

People have died for less than such actions, and they knew that Victor wasnʼt as indulgent as he appeared during the negotiation.

Victor narrowed his eyes dangerously at Volk. He didnʼt appreciate being interrupted.

And Volkʼs attitude only further cemented his fate.

ʼHe will be replaced.ʼ Victor wouldnʼt kill him. He wasnʼt a petty villain. He would simply strip him of his position and give it to someone more competent. Volk could just be a warrior of the Kingdom, fighting and dying for his country.

Either way, Victor was already planning to do that anyway, as the King of a country. If you think about it, it was a promotion in a way, right? After all, Volk showed no qualities of a Monarch but rather those of a thoughtless soldier. At least now, he would be in a position appropriate to his abilities.

Roxanne looked at Volk with a bit of sympathy. ʼItʼs never a good idea to anger my Husband. With his chaotic humor, he can perform actions that will harm the victim of his anger and make everyone around that victim happy. Or perform actions that will harm the victim and everyone around them. In any case, itʼs a fact that the victim of his anger will have a bad fate... At least in this case, my Husbandʼs actions will result in a favorable outcome. For the Werewolves, of course, not for Volk.ʼ

”Volk Fenrir, tell me, are you stupid?”

”Huh?”

”Forget it. It was a rhetorical question.” Victor shook his head in disappointment.

”Answering your question, yes, the Werewolves are not a part of this agreement.”

”Thatʼs...” Before Volk could say anything, Victor continued.

”At least not initially.”

”As the one responsible for this entire negotiation and the party responsible for basically doing all the work, after the conclusion of the conversation with Lady Aurora, the Werewolf Monarchs would then come to me at some point in the future to make an agreement. If you had more patience and better foresight, you would have realized that.”

”But thereʼs a reason why itʼs always Tasha who is responsible for these types of agreements, right?”

In a more sophisticated and polite manner, Victor called Volk an incompetent idiot, something that everyone, including Volk himself, realized.

Victor leaned back in his Throne and spoke in a bored tone, ”... Initially, the Werewolves were supposed to join the agreement after the conclusion of my negotiations, but Iʼve changed my mind.”

These words made Maya and Tasha widen their eyes.

”The Werewolves will not be a participant in this agreement... Not until an appropriate Leader is chosen as The Alpha of all Werewolves.”
