My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires

Chapter 1118: Have faith, my friend.

The same applied to Andrew who also opened his eyes wide when he realized this fact. The Inquisitors were like the Onmyo; they drew their strength from their Faith in God, something he had never really been able to achieve because… Well, he didnʼt believe in God.

He wasnʼt a pagan or anything, it was just hard to believe in something you knew existed but has never once helped you. Andrew was a practical guy. If it was before he was introduced to the Supernatural World, he might have believed in such an existence. But now? It was impossible.

Considering how many ʼbadʼ Gods he had seen, he really wasnʼt comfortable with it.

Surprisingly, these thoughts of Andrewʼs were what plagued most Humans nowadays. Because of that, the Religion of The Blood God was so popular. Even though there were other Gods, the Gods of this religion acted like real Gods who rewarded those who were faithful and put in the effort.

Not to mention that the Leader of the Gods himself was The Emperor who shifted continents around, and turned into a gigantic Dragon whose only portion they could see from Earth was his head!

The other Gods said they were Gods, but they didnʼt prove anything. They just shouted that they were Gods, and expected everyone to believe them.

”Victor, what are your Divinities?”

”Yes.”

”.....” Fred, Edward and Andrew were silent in disbelief.

”...Umm, Victor, I asked you what Divinities you possessed…” Fred decided to ask again.

”And I told you. Yes.”

”.....”

”What the hell does that mean?”

”Exactly what it means. I have all Divinities.”

”How the hell do you have every Divinity?” That was actually a genuine question.

”I absorb other Gods.” Victor explained as if it were something common. Well, for him it was.

”...” They only just realized that their friend was truly worthy of the Title: The Strongest. He was completely broken!

”Dude, thatʼs not possible! Youʼre using cheats! Thatʼs the only possible explanation! How the hell can you cheat in real life!? You damn Overpowered freak!” Fred struggled, but he still couldnʼt get out of Victorʼs grip.

Victor laughed. ”I donʼt just have specific Divinities. I possess most of the known Divinities.”

”But if you want to pray to me, these are the Divinities I originally developed without absorbing anyone.”

”I have: Assassination, Strength, Beauty, Revenge, Martial Honor, Home, Family, Nature, Yandere, Creation, Dream, and Madness.”

”I-.” Just as Fred was about to speak, Victor continued.

”I also have Blood, War, Demons, Vampires, Fear, Despair, Murder, Strength, and Destruction.

”Most of these were developed by me because of the Faith of my subordinates, and my followers.”

”.......”

”...Yandere? Really? Yandere!?” Edward spoke in disbelief.

”Well, itʼs Victor. What did you expect?” Andrew shrugged.

”...With just the Divinity of Fear, Despair, Murder, Strength, and Destruction, I can cast terrifying Spells… and you still have more. You are completely broken, Victor.” R̃𝓪ƝоBËṩ

Edward, and Andrew nodded heavily in support of Fred.

Victor laughed sincerely, and then he put Fred down on the ground, and held both of Fredʼs shoulders with his hand.

”Believe in me, My Friend. Believe in your friend, believe in your Emperor because…” Victorʼs complexion began to change.

Fred promptly pulled away from Victor and looked at him in shock.

Victor had fully transformed back into his Emperor Form, growing to a height of 5 meters, and looked down at his friends, his eyes completely serious and shining with Power.

Even though he wasnʼt exerting his Power, just his appearance alone caused an invisible weight on everyone around him.

This was the God-Emperor, Victor Elderblood, the man who brought Pantheons to their knees.

”That Faith will give you strength.”

Reality began to shake before it shattered like glass. And before they knew it, they were in the space between Galaxies.

”What!?” Everyone screamed at the same time in shock.

”Where are we!?” Andrew shouted.

”In space.” Edward said.

”Thatʼs fucking obvious!” Andrew snorted.

”How the hell am I able to breathe and talk?” Fred asked an important question.

”This is not the time for stupid questions like that!” Andrew shouted.

”Thatʼs a genuine question!” Fred felt offended.

”....”

”Edward? Why are you so quiet… Oh… Bloody Hell…”

Confused as to why Fred and Edward had suddenly gone quiet, Andrew looked in the direction they were looking, and his eyes widened in shock.

On the horizon… A gigantic Dragon was there. Yet the Dragon was much larger than entire Galaxies.

The discovery of Energy without attributes had changed Victor. His body was no longer working to keep multiple Energies running. He only had a single Energy, and because of that, he could focus that Energy completely, and this caused a fundamental change, not only in his Powers, but also in his appearance.

Victorʼs Draconic Body in its True Form had grown to ridiculous levels. It would not be an exaggeration to say that, if he wanted to, he could swallow Galaxies.

”A strength far above normal. The Strength of The Emperor.” As Victorʼs voice echoed through the void, the Dragon came towards them.

It was a Black Western Dragon with violet hues. Its eyes glowed crimson violet, and the Dragonʼs very natural presence attracted the celestial bodies around it, proving that it had its own weight in the fabric of space. But before those suns, black holes, and planets headed towards it, a fluctuation in Reality occurred, and they returned to their original positions.

Before the three of them realized it, the Dragonʼs enormous head was already in front of them. It was unusually fast for something so gigantic.

”...I am allowed three wishes?” Even in this tense situation, Fred did not lose his spirit. Seeing a familiar situation from an anime he liked very much, he could not help but ask.

Edward and Andrew just looked at Fred in disbelief.

As a master of presentation, Victor completely ignored Fred, and continued.

”The Emperor will be with you, in all worlds... In all Realities, in all situations.” The Dragonʼs eyes shone.

And their Reality changed over and over again. They went to a world completely made of lava, of snow, a world made of water, a dead world, a world that had several alien Races.

Suddenly, they were back in front of the Dragon again.

”In this dark and difficult to survive Universe, Faith will save you. Resist, fight, despair, but above all… Live a good life.”

”May The Emperorʼs Blessing be with you, my friends.”

They blinked their eyes, and before they knew it, they were back on the roof, and Victor was no longer in sight.

”…That was-.” Edward started to speak.

”Amazing?” Fred interrupted.

”-insane.” Edward finished.

”Was that an illusion?” Andrew asked.

”I donʼt think so. Look.” Fred pointed to himself, specifically to his clothes and feet that were dirty with snow, and gray earth.

”So, what was that?” Andrew asked.

”That was The Emperorʼs Power… Honestly, I feel like I can actually believe in him now.” Fred said.

”…What do you mean?” Edward asked.

”Even though Victor was The Emperor and did incredible things, I still saw him as my childhood friend, like nothing had changed… I think he knew that. And because of that, he showed us a fraction of his Power to help me believe in him so I could use my Magic.” Fred explained.

Then, Fred took out a Talisman that was kept in his pocket, and held the image of the enormous Dragon in his head.

”From The Deep Space between Galaxies, I honor your name, O, God of Fear.” A terrifying Power erupted from Fredʼs body. ”…May Fear descend upon my enemies.”

That crimson Power formed in front of him, forming a large sphere of Negativity. Fredʼs eyes glowed blood red, and he spoke:

”Order!” Throwing the Talisman in front of him, he ʼpunchedʼ the Talisman, and then the sphere flew towards the sky at an extraordinary speed. In less than a few seconds, the sphere had already left the planet, and an explosion of pure Negativity of Fear occurred.

”...Holy fuck, dude, what the hell!?” Andrew held on to the balcony.

”I didnʼt expect the Power to be this great either!” Fred shouted as he held himself steady.

”...” Edward just stood there with his arms crossed. The wind didnʼt affect him at all. ʼHmm, that could kill some of my best fighters easily. But I could dodge and knock it down just as easily.ʼ He analyzed.

When the wind stopped, and they finally managed to gain some semblance of control, Andrew sighed, ”Will I be able to do this in the future too?”

”I think you can do it now too. But in your own way. After all, our Techniques are kind of similar.”

It was no secret that the Inquisitorsʼ Techniques and Onmyoujutsu were similar and relied on Faith in the Gods. The difference was that Onmyo could use several different Gods characteristics, and they had several other disciplines as well, not just something unique like the Inquisitors.

”Looking back now, I can see that the Enchantment came out stronger also because Iʼm no longer Human.”

”But a large part of this is due to Victorʼs own Power.”

”Originally, the Basic Onmyoujutsu I used only took a fraction of a percent of the Godsʼ Powers. If I used the more Advanced Spells that took a higher fraction of their Power…” Fred shuddered. ”Good thing these Techniques depend on my Faith, and the Godsʼ permission.”

”…Was that just a Basic Spell?” Edward asked.

”Yes! Thatʼs why I was so surprised at how powerful it was.” Fred replied. He wasnʼt lying before!

Edward now broke out in a cold sweat. If one Basic Spell would be able to take out one of his best Wolves, what would the more Advanced ones be like?

”Hey! What are you guys doing up there!”

”Shit, run!” Fred shouted.

”W-Wait! Ugh!” Andrew tried to run, but since he wasnʼt used to his new strength, he ended up hitting his face on the wall.

”Damnit!”

Edward promptly ran and picked Andrew up like a sack of potatoes and jumped away.

”Stop! You need to explain yourselves right now. Do not resist arrest!”

”Never!” Fred shouted.

…

In the sky, Victor watched the scene with a smile on his face.

”Stay strong, My Friends. I have given you all the tools you need. You just need to progress.”

”Your Imperial Majesty, what should we do about the individuals?” One of The Empireʼs eyes and ears, Victorʼs Assassins, appeared behind him on their knees.

”Let the new recruits pursue them. That way, we can encourage them not to be mediocre.”

”The High-Ranking Officers donʼt need to get involved.” These Officers were Victorʼs Clone Soldiers who were created to maintain order.

”Use this event to promote The Empireʼs image; ʼA battle has taken place, but The Empireʼs forces handled it without casualties. The hostiles have been captured and will no longer be a threat.ʼ” Victor never missed an opportunity to spread propaganda. After all, he knew how effective it was as a former American.

He snapped his fingers, and lifeless bodies that looked very similar to his friends were created. But if you looked closely, there were some differences.

”Yes, your Imperial Majesty.” The assassin placed his hand on the bodies and disappeared. The Emperorʼs orders were clear, so he went to pass on the orders.

Turning his eyes towards the fight. ”Tonight is a beautiful night, huh?... A night like this makes me want to hunt…”

Victorʼs appearance changed completely, and soon he was in his old appearance with clear differences, such as his shorter hair and a more square and masculine face. He even had a full beard that wasnʼt too large, but just gave him a hint of masculinity.

”Just like old times… Letʼs find something fun to do.” He smiled widely showing his sharp teeth as his eyes changed from a crimson violet to a dark brown.

Victor didnʼt have to do what he was going to do now… But he wanted to do it, and if he wanted to do it, he would.

His freedom of choice was the reason he sought so much Power. If he wanted to act like an Emperor, he would say so. If he wanted to revisit the old days, he would do so. Victor was The Emperor. No one would stop him.

Not to mention that, even though this ʼVictorʼ was here, the other Victors were also doing their thing.

The more he divided his mind into various functions, the better he got at it, even with most of his body controlling the Energy without attributes.

And even this Energy control was increasing over time. Victor was a monster. The more he repeated something, the more he learned and adapted. Eventually, he would even breathe this Energy as if he didnʼt even need monstrous control to use it, because he would do everything unconsciously.
