Chapter 128: Natashia is working hard for her happiness!
"Oya? Why are you frozen and looking at me like you'd seen a ghost?"
"C-Countess Annasthashia Fulger…" Hecate stammered heavily.
"Wrong, Wrong. I'm an ex-countess… For now, at least…" She flashed a dangerous little smile at the end.
"…" That smile made Tatsuya alert. He looked seriously at the woman, then measured the woman's strength, and saw that he had no chance of beating her…
But would that leave him shaken!? Of course not!
Rumble, Rumble.
Tatsuya's body was covered by lightning.
"Oh? You have great power there, nephew…" She stared at Tatsuya's lightning bolts as if assessing his power:
"But… Hmm… It's not the same quality as my husband, why is that?" She began thinking aloud, and she touched her cheek with her finger.
"If my husband's lightning is like first-quality lightning, yours is something like third-quality… Why is that? I also feel something mixed with your power… Hmm…" She looked like a crazy woman who was trying to use her head to think.
"Well… Whatever…" She gave up thinking as it wasn't like she cared either. She was just curious that Tatsuya's power was like that.
"It's my husband we're talking about! Of course, I should expect something like this from him!" She nodded her head several times.
"…" Why is this woman talking to herself? And even worse, why is she answering the things she asks herself!? Is she mad!?
Natashia looked around when her gaze landed on a woman who looked just like her.
Suddenly Natashia appeared in front of her sister.
"S-Stop-" Tatsuya was going to defend his mother. He knew that this woman was his mother's number 1 enemy. He grew up hearing from his mother how hateful this woman was.
He was going to defend her! But...
"I missed you so much!" Natashia grabbed her sister and rubbed her face against her sister's cheek.
"You're still short as always, my dear sister! Are you eating right? You must focus on eating more than working! Look how thin you are!"
"…" She's a vampire, you know? She can't get fat! That's what Victoria's underlings wanted to say, but they didn't have the heart to say it.
"Let go of me!" Victoria turned her face away from Natashia. She suddenly assumed a shocked expression, "...That tone of voice… Is that you, Natashia?"
"Pipon~! You're right! Now a gift!" She hugged her sister tighter!
"Ugh..." She gave up fighting.
"Hehehehe, my sister is so cute~, she's so cute~, she's so cute!"
"... What's going on here? Wasn't she my mother's enemy?"
"Yes, she is, but she's not that woman. Currently, she's the other woman." Hecate explained,
"...Huh?" Tatsuya didn't understand anything Hecate said.
Sigh…
Hecate sighed. As a witch who has worked for Victoria for a long time, she knew about Natashia's secret; Victoria herself told her.
"In short, this woman has two personalities. Her first personality is a bitch who likes to gamble, and do whatever she wants for her own interest; she's the personality that was your mother's enemy. And then there's this woman you're seeing now…"
The two looked at Natashia, who was hugging Victoria.
"She's the real personality of Annasthashia Fulger, the true sister of Victoria Rider..."
"...Why is the world so complicated...? Actually, why is my family so complicated?" Tatsuya really wanted to sigh right now.
"Hahaha, you haven't seen anything yet… This woman, she's crazier than the other personality…" Hecate spoke with a face darkened with fear.
She listened to the stories Victoria told her about her sister, and from what she could tell? Those stories weren't cool at all...
Seeing the goofy smile on Natashia's face, unconsciously, Victoria flashed a small smile:
"...What happened to the other one?"
"I don't know yet, but I will kill her!"
"... Is that all right?"
"Hmm? Why not?"
"Well, she is you…" Victoria didn't know how to feel knowing her sister was going to kill a part of herself.
"Yes, it's okay! My husband hates that woman, so I will kill her!"
Looking into her sister's lifeless eyes, Victoria gulped; 'She has become crazier than before... Wait... Husband? Did she remarry? Who is the poor soul?'
"Who is your new husband?" She asked curiously.
"Huh? What dumb question is that? Of course, it's Victor!"
"…." Tatsuya, Victoria, and Hecate felt that they were suddenly deaf.
"Let go of me for a few minutes..." Victoria tried to pull away from her sister.
"Hmm? Okay."
When Victoria separated from her sister, she touched her head. For some reason, her head was spinning a lot now; 'Ahh... Will the world finally end tomorrow? I seem to be hearing things...'
"Can you repeat it again? What is your husband's name?"
"… Have you gone deaf, sister? Have you been away from home for a long time and caught some strange illness?"
"Just answer the damn question." Victoria stomped the ground in frustration as she looked at her subordinates who had stopped working and yelled, "And you guys get back to work!"
"Yess!!!" Soon her subordinates started working again.
"And?" Victoria looked at her sister, who was looking at her subordinates.
"And, what?" Natashia looked at Victoria blankly.
"Ugh…" Victoria rubbed her brow on her face in an attempt to calm down.
"My dear and beloved sister, I am asking... Who is your new husband?" She spoke as calmly as possible.
"But haven't I already answered?" she turned her head without understanding.
"I'm asking what his name is!" She stomped on the ground again in frustration. This personality always made her angry!
"It's Victor!" She smiled happily.
"...Ugh." Victoria didn't know how to feel to hear that her sister went after her own daughter's husband!
"...Victor, are you talking about Victor Walker, your daughter's husband?" Hecate asked.
"Yes! That's the one! That's my husband! My beloved husband~." She began to whisper the word 'husband' over and over again.
Suddenly her face turned red, and she started breathing heavily as if out of breath. She seemed to have entered her own world as she began to mutter at high speed:
"We'll do this and that, he'll grab me from behind, and throw all his seeds inside me~, I'll get pregnant~, I'll make a trio with my daughter~, I'll get along with my daughter~, Hehehehehehehe~."
Gulp.
Hecate gulped when she saw the crazy look on Natashia's face. 'This woman is dangerous! She is mad! Completely crazy! How can that man like a woman like that!?'
What Hecate didn't know was that Victor didn't say anything… She completely distorted what Victor said.
"…" Tatsuya looked to the sky and thought; 'My friend, I'm so happy… I'm really glad you're going to suffer a little…'
Tatsuya's thought was simple, who would be happy to have a crazy wife like her? He believed that no normal man would like that.
What he didn't know was… Victor was no normal man...
He was still naive... He was still so young...
"Oh, I just remembered my goal." Suddenly Natashia woke up from her world and looked at Victoria with a serious look. She didn't even look like the woman who was in her own world a few seconds ago.
"…Are you absolutely sure you're okay!? Don't you have any more personalities being created right now!?"
"What are you talking about, sister?" She suddenly approaches Victoria and takes her sister's hand, "Of course I'm fine! In fact, I've never felt so good in my entire life! I finally found what I was looking for!"
"..." Victoria felt herself being sucked into the darkness of Natashia's eyes.
"...O-Okay." Victoria quickly put her hand on Natashia's face and pushed her sister away; 'that scared me... For a moment, I felt like I was going to be swallowed by that darkness...'
"I'm glad you're okay now... What did you come here for?"
"Oh, I-" Natashia started to talk about why she came here, but suddenly they heard their king's voice.
"With my authority as king of all vampires, I, Vlad Tepes, hereby declare."
Tatsuya, Victoria, Hecate, and Natashia all listened in silence.
When the announcement ended, everyone just opened their mouths in sheer shock. They couldn't believe what they were hearing, except for one person, of course.
"A Vampire Count at the age of 21..." Victoria said.
"This is ridiculous…" Hecate said.
"…" Tatsuya didn't know how to feel knowing that Victor had become a Count. But somehow, he couldn't help but think; 'As expected of him, I think?'
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~"
Suddenly the group woke up from their stupor when they heard Natashia's crazy laugh.
"…this is a good time to get out of here…" Hecate spoke in a low voice.
"..." Victoria and Tatsuya nodded.
To be honest, the current state of Natashia was scaring the hell out of them.
"As expected from my husband! He became a Count! I can't be left behind! I have to work faster, and get back what belongs to me! And when I do, he'll fill my insides with his liquids! I can barely wait!"
"..." The faces of the three turned pure red. Can this woman not have the least bit of decency?
Suddenly, Victoria and Tatsuya felt their shoulders being touched by someone.
They slowly turned their faces and looked at Natashia, "Where are you going...?" Her smile was terrifying!
"Well... I have work to do." Victoria muttered.
Rumble, Rumble.
Natashia's body was spontaneously covered by lightning.
"Don't worry, you will work hard... For my happiness, and my husband's happiness!"
"Eh...?"
And in the blink of an eye, Natashia ascended to the skies while carrying Tatsuya and Victoria.
"I knew getting involved with that man is not a good idea!!" Tatsuya, for the first time in his long life, screamed in frustration.
