My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires - Chapter 1068: Soldiers of the Emperor. 2

‘They are not ‘monsters’ like Merlin, my teacher, or Victor. They are not as strong or as talented as our Daughters, but they are not mediocre either. If compared to all the Heroes and Gods of the past, they are in the same category as the Gods.’

Gods were experts in their own right, and comparing a Mortal to the same talent as the Gods was a great compliment.

‘Although, this is to be expected from Beings that Victor personally Created… I must reflect on my shortcomings in comparing everyone to our Daughters.’ Scathach was an objective woman. If she found something that she considered a problem in herself, she would fix it.

“Let me introduce you to your teachers. Hassan-i Sabbah, he will teach you about all types of assassinations and how to take a life.”

The assassin simply nodded to the seven soldiers.

“Julius Caesar, the Roman Emperor, he will teach you about politics.”

“Former Emperor, Your Imperial Majesty… I cannot be considered Emperor if my government is dead.” The man spoke respectfully.

Victor only smiled slightly and continued: “Abe-No-Seimei, The Greatest Onmyoji who walked these lands. He will teach you about philosophy, and you will learn wisdom from him. After all, even with all the strength and intelligence, without the wisdom to apply it correctly, it’s useless.”

“Well, I am no longer The Greatest Onmyoji, but I will do my best to teach you,” Abe-No-Seimei said.

“And last but not least, my Wife and former Master, Scathach Scarlett Elderblood.”

‘The Emperor’s Master…’ The seven opened their eyes wide. To them, this Title was much more meaningful than the others she had.

This reaction made Scathach roll her eyes, but she didn’t comment.

“She will polish your talents.” No further description was needed for Scathach. She would ensure that they were great warriors.

The 7 were amazed. They had the best teachers at their disposal and a great opportunity, but they had doubts.

“I see your doubts, soldiers. Speak.”

“… Why spend so many resources on us…?” John asked. To him, it made no sense at all.

“There are two things that irritate me the most in this world: someone harming my Family and seeing my subordinates falling into mediocrity without progressing in their own talents,” Victor spoke with disdain. “I Created you to be the best of the best that my Empire has to offer. You are my Creation, my Children, my Spear, my Shield… My Imperial Soldiers.”

“My Will will be exercised through my Soldiers.” Victor closed his hand in front of them and then opened it while speaking with a solemn face: “Therefore, it is only logical that my Soldiers receive the best training and environment to develop.”

The seven opened their eyes wide. Did the Emperor think so highly of them?

“John, Clare, Kiana, Laura, Conan, Kaleb, and Caelus. You seven are the first of seven Legions that will be born through your experiences, my seven Imperial Commanders who will work directly under my General, Scathach.”

They looked at Scathach and then looked at Victor again.

“…But these are my plans for the future. For now… You must train. After all, you may not be able to meet my expectations.”

Victor turned and said: “I will be watching… Just as always.” And disappeared in raging flames.

…

Jupiter’s Outskirts.

Appearing in a Command Room, the first thing he heard was.

“Now that they have heard those words, the probability of them succeeding in their training is much higher,” Velnorah spoke.

Victor smiled. “I know.”

“… I was skeptical because the Emperor himself needed to be present when they woke up, but now I understand why you did it.”

“Being an Emperor who is worshiped from afar is good… But being an Emperor who is close to his subjects and understands his subjects is even better.”

“Not to mention that a warm welcome is more memorable than a cold one.”

“And by using these seven as the basis for future clones, all the ‘brothers and sisters’ of these seven will have the same experience as them… Which is why you recorded their experiences down to the words’ Emperor’s Soldiers’ and did not record their names.”

“Exactly.” Victor handed an Orb to Velnorah.

“The experiences of the seven will be recorded in this Orb. All we must do is give the clones combat experience, political expertise, and wisdom. I do not want my soldiers to be stupid and unable to think for themselves.”

“I will separate the set of memories that the new clones will inherit.” Velnorah nodded seriously.

“How is the progress?”

“The Continental Spaceships are ready, as are the Warships that will be controlled by Akasha.”

Initially, the plan was for separate Beings to control each of these ships individually, but with the Creation of Akasha, such a thing was no longer necessary. She alone could control all the ships.

“Operators are also necessary… We will make another Legion of Clones focused more on support, and we will use Laura’s memories and blood as a base.”

“Why her specifically?” Velnorah asked curiously.

“My instinct tells me that this is the right decision,” Victor said with a small smile.

“If you don’t want to tell, just say so.” Velnorah snorted. She knew her Husband well enough to know that he wouldn’t make such an important decision based solely on instinct. He must know something about Laura that she doesn’t.

‘It doesn’t matter, I’ll find out.’ Velnorah thought as she studied Laura in the background.

Victor just smiled at Velnorah’s reaction and looked below. Currently, he was in the Command Room in his Personal Spaceship. The ship still didn’t have a name, and it didn’t have any personnel yet.

This spaceship was a Continental Spaceship that could house an entire country and would be one of the Emperor’s ‘external’ Command Centers. After all, the safest place was still his personal Dimensions that were in his Soul.

“How long until everything is ready, Velnorah?”

“30… Actually, 50 minutes. The Time for them will be different from ours. After all, by the time they finish their training, it will be time for the other Clones to come to life.”

One of the advantages of being practically omnipotent in his territory was that he could change the Time Flow of everything with his Divinity more easily. A large amount of Energy would be spent, but for Victor, who had an Energy reactor for a heart while simultaneously being supported by his World Tree Wives, this was nothing.

‘Speaking of Time, it’s time for Natalia to take on her duties.’ Victor thought.

Nataliana Alioth, also known now as Nataliana Alioth Elderblood or to her closest friends Natalia Elderblood. Natalia’s case, in particular, was quite unique. Due to becoming a True Dragon, her Powers over Space reached absurd levels, and she needed a lot of time and effort to learn how to control everything. In the last 2000 years, she only spent time having fun with Victor and training.

Nothing more, and nothing less. Her own Daughter with Victor had a Power over Space as absurd as her Mother’s, but it was only related to Space. She didn’t have the ‘Time’ Aspect yet like her Mother acquired over the years. After all, she had inherited her father’s ‘eyes’, who no longer had ‘time’.

Time here means the factor of his Mortality. Through using his Powers, Alexios was gradually extending his lifespan. He was supposed to be dead years ago; after all, he was a Human.

Victor ‘looked’ at Natalia and saw her meditating with her eyes closed.

“Darling.”

An image of Victor appeared in front of Natalia. “Are you ready?”

“Yes.” Natalia opened her eyes. Unlike the Dragon eyes that everyone had, her eyes were like an ever-changing cosmos. It was as if someone had taken two galaxies and placed them in her eyes.

“I can fix my father’s problem.”

Alexios’ problem was something that Victor could not completely solve because it was related to Time in its purest form of problem. To put it in a simpler way, Alexios had bathed himself with the Energy of Time to prevent his Mortal death. He was using his Powers to extend his time indefinitely, but the problem was that every time he used his Time Powers, his Energy would deplete, and Mortality would come to him.

The reason Victor couldn’t fix the problem was because Alexios’ entire body at that point was no longer flesh but pure Time Energy.

Despite being a God of Time, his Mastery was not at the absurd levels of his Wife. Just like Anna, who had all her Powers focused on bending Reality, Natalia had all her Powers focused on Time and Space. Her own eyes helped in controlling this.

Speaking of Anna, not even bending Reality on Alexios could help him… I mean, it could help, but it would run a lot of risks, considering that they would be bending Reality to bring Alexios’ ‘time’ back.

But that’s where the risk lies. If they brought Alexios’ time back with Reality Bending, would everything he did be undone? Yes or no?

… No one knew. Because of small details like that, messing with Time on a large scale was a big problem, and because of that, Time was the Domain of the Primordials because only they could understand exactly ‘all’ the consequences of their actions.

Using Time to slow down a location and speeding it up were just basic uses of the Concept. At higher levels, you could travel to the past and alter the entire timeline, a feat that was something only Natalia could do ‘easily’. Victor could do something similar, but the amount of resources and Energy spent would be ridiculously inefficient compared to Natalia, who could simply open a door to the past thanks to her eyes that made the whole process possible.

‘… I still haven’t been able to discover the origin of those eyes.’ Even with his eyes and his current knowledge, he couldn’t find out their origin.

Unlike Alexios, who was limited due to his Mortality, Natalia, as a Dragon, could extract more potential from her eyes. Yet even she, as a True Dragon and Goddess of Time and Space, couldn’t access the full potential of the eyes.

‘My guess is that it’s the eyes of some dead Primordial God of Time or a Being from the Upper Sectors…’ Victor thought, but he wasn’t sure about that. Although she hadn’t completely Mastered the Divinity of Time and Space, she was quite proficient. Yet even so, she couldn’t reach the full potential of those eyes.

‘How this ended up in the hands of Mortals is the key point.’ Victor thought about how not even Albedo, Alexios, and Natalia knew how the Alioth Family acquired these Powers.

In the past, Albedo had tried to take an Alioth for herself to study them, but Vlad intervened and saved the first Alioth. Everyone thought it was just a mutation that occurred due to the first Alioth touching Magic, but they were all wrong.

Even Jeanne didn’t know anything, and she was the oldest Being they knew. Though, to be fair, for the most part, Jeanne had been disconnected from the Supernatural World, so it was natural that she didn’t know specific things like that.

‘Well, there’s no point thinking about that now.’ Victor would just keep an eye on it.
