Chapter 137: Farewells. (2/2)
Hearing Ruby's voice, the group looked at her.
Soon they saw Ruby, Sasha, and Violet who were accompanied by Maria, June, and Natalia, they were bringing a lot of suitcases with them.
”Oh, my daughter.” Scathach's eyes seemed to glow for a moment, and she took the initiative to hug Victor, ”Don't worry, I'm just saying goodbye to my disciple.” For some reason, she felt a sense of competitiveness.
”...I see...” Ruby, Sasha, and Violet's eyes were as dark as a black hole. They had agreed to leave this messy situation to Victor, but...somewhere in their heart, they still didn't like it.
”Heh~” Scathach exhibited a creepy smile.
”…” The atmosphere around was very tense, and people felt that a single wrong move could cause a battle to erupt.
Gulp.
Maria, Natalia, and Luna gulped. They didn't want to be caught in the crossfire between these women.
”HAHAHAHA~” Suddenly Victor laughed out loud.
”...?” All the group's attention was turned to Victor.
Victor hugs Scathach tighter, he spends a few seconds hugging her, and then he says:
”I will miss you...”
”Hmm...” Somehow Victor's action made her more embarrassed. Now that she was more aware, she realized she was hugging Victor in front of her daughters!
”…” The wives' eyes narrowed a little at the sight.
Victor suddenly stopped hugging Scathach and kissed her cheek:
”I have to go now, Scathach.” Then he turned and walked towards his wives.
”Eh...?” Scathach just stared at Victor's back in amazement.
”Are you ready?” Victor displayed a gentle smile that could soothe the heart of even the worst monster in the world.
”Yes...” Their answers were quite tame since they were somehow caught off guard by Victor's smile.
”Good.” He continued with the same smile and looked at Natalia, ”Let's go.”
”Yes, Count Alucard.”
Victor's eyes twitched a little, ”...Aren't you going to change the way you call me?”
”You are a Count now,” Natalia replied with a gentle smile.
”... Do whatever you want.” Victor had given up since he knew it was impossible to change a maid's mindset.
”I will.”
Kaguya suddenly turned to shadows and went into Victor's shadow.
Natalia snapped her fingers, and soon a large portal was created.
”This is amazing, no matter how many times I see it...”
”It's my clan's pride.” Natalia seemed to puff out her chest a little.
”An Incredible skill, indeed…” Victor exhibited a gentle smile, then he turned back and looked at Luna, Yuki, Siena, Lacus, Pepper, and Scathach.
He displayed a small smile and said in a playful tone, ”I'll see you in the future.” Soon after, he turned and entered the portal with the group. They didn't require long goodbyes; after all, this wasn't goodbye. He was just going home, and he wasn't very good with goodbyes.
Besides, Ruby, Sasha, and Violet had already said their goodbyes to the other girls.
The last to pass through the portal was Natalia, and then the portal was closed.
”…” An uncomfortable silence fell in the room.
”Ah… He's gone…” Lacus said.
”…The house is suddenly so quiet…” Pepper felt uncomfortable.
Lacus, Siena, and Luna agreed with Pepper. They had somehow gotten used to the noisy mansion.
Scathach kept watching the place where Victor disappeared from while she had several thoughts running through her head.
”Luna, prepare everything, we're heading back to our territory,” she suddenly spoke, then she walked towards her room.
”Yes!”
”And, girl from Clan Snow.” She spoke without turning around.
”Yes?”
”Aren't you going home?”
”Yes...” Yuki got up from the ground, then she left the mansion without looking back.
”...Mother's mood seems to be very bad,” Siena spoke with an uncomfortable face.
”Yes...” Lacus and Pepper agreed and had the same feeling as their older sister.
”But she'll be fine, it's not like she's going to freak out because she won't see Victor for a few months, right?” Pepper laughed.
”…” Lacus, Luna, and Siena didn't respond and just fell silent.
”...Right?” She asked again.
”…” Everyone was silent.
Somehow, the women's lack of responses made Pepper very concerned.
When Yuki came out of the mansion and was a bit far from Scathach's territory, suddenly her shadow seemed to grow, ”Oda?”
[Yes.] The shadow spoke in Yuki's mind.
”What are you doing here?”
[Countess Agnes is coming here looking for the new Count, I came first as an escort.]
”Oh, tell the countess that the new Count has returned to the human world, and my services are no longer needed.” She spoke in a neutral tone but contained some sadness.
”I'm coming home too.”
[Okay... I'll leave some subordinates just for protection.] Despite being a Snow Clan Maid, Yuki was still from the main Clan. She had a slightly higher status than Oda, who was from a subordinate Clan to the Snow Clan.
”Thanks.” Yuki exhibited a small smile.
