Chapter 171 - 171: Mother And Mother. 2 (1/2)

Two women were looking at each other as if sizing each other up.

'... Her tits are so big... What are those thick legs? Her skin is so perfect… Is it because she's a vampire that she's so beautiful?' Anna felt like she was standing in front of a goddess. For Anna, the woman in front of her simply had no signs of aging. She had no wrinkles, no skin defects, sagging, nothing!

Unlike Ruby, who was still young and had a very youthful beauty, her mother was very different and had a mature beauty.

'Victor's mother, huh…? She's a lot like him...' Scathach's first impression of Anna was that the woman was a lot like Victor.

They even had the same blue sapphire eyes that Victor had lost due to the effects of his blood.

She didn't have much to think about Anna, considering this was her first encounter with the woman.

”Nice to meet you, Anna Walker. I am Scathach Scarlett, mother of Ruby.” Scathach presented herself correctly.

”Ara.” Anna flashed a gentle smile, ”Nice to meet you. As you may know, I'm Anna Walker, Victor's mother.”

”Before anything,” Anna spoke in a professional tone.

”I'll start by apologizing for any possible problems my son may have caused you.” She presented herself as a very respectable mother.

”Hahaha~, it's okay, it's okay, he hasn't caused any problems.” Scathach chuckled playfully. Problems? She couldn't remember Victor causing her any problems.

”…” The three wives looked at this conversation with heavy, deadpanned expressions. Intervene in a game between two vampire clans, fight and kill someone who was affiliated with Clan Fulger. Then, dare to attack the king in his own castle.

How did he not cause so much trouble!? He was the personification of problems!

Literally, this man couldn't go two days without causing some kind of chaos!

Siena and Lacus wanted to scream this when they heard what their mother said to Anna.

”...” Kaguya, who was quieter after the past incident, looked at all of this with a slight smile on her face.

She couldn't help but think about Victor's words.

”You've slept for 700 years, my Maid.” She felt her body tremble every time she remembered those words.

'I'm glad that was a lie, I didn't want to spend 700 years away from my master… I want to see his entire development as a vampire.' She thought with a small smile on her face,

Kaguya scratched her throat a little, which was starting to feel dry, and looked at Pepper, who was making a strange expression.

”Funnnn,” Pepper was glaring at Victor's mother with a cute look, as she seemed to be looking for some evidence that the woman she was now looking at was actually Victor's mother.

But it didn't take her long to find obvious evidence like the woman's eyes and their faces that looked a little alike.

'They're definitely mother and son…' She thought with a slightly sad expression. Somehow, seeing Victor's mother, she couldn't help but remember her past.

”...” Victor and Ruby were looking at this scene with a slightly nervous look.

'Why is my mother here? Shouldn't she be up there!?' Victor was freaking out internally.

'Mother, please don't tease her... Don't tease her...' Somehow, Ruby was preoccupied with something else.

”Umu, that's a good thing.” She nodded satisfied,

”...” Pepper's eyes started to sparkle when she heard what Anna said. 'So that's where he got that 'Umu' thing from.'

She had already heard about it from Ruby, but seeing it in person was something else entirely. She felt like she was unraveling all of Victor's dark secrets!

”Just out of curiosity, what are they doing?” Anna looked at Victor, and the girls:

”And who are these girls?”

”They were training. And, these girls are my daughters.” Scathach replied as she looked at the girls.

Her eyes fell on Siena:

”The tallest is Siena Scarlett, she is my eldest daughter.”

”Hi,” Siena spoke with a little smile on her face, as she didn't know what to say in front of Anna, she just made a normal gesture.

Scathach looked at Lacus with a small smile on her face:

”The smallest is Lacus Scarlett, she is my middle child.”

”Hello,” Lacus spoke in a neutral tone, and, same as Siena, she didn't quite know what to say.

Scathach looked at Pepper with an amused smile since she could even imagine what her daughter was thinking as she looked at Victor's mother.

”And the one who's looking at you with a piercing gaze is my second youngest child, Pepper Scarlett.”

”Fue...?” Seeing Anna's gaze on her, Pepper somehow started to panic and said, ”Nice to meet you, I'm Peppesh!”

”…” The Group looked at this with an amused look:

'… She bit her tongue… she definitely bit her tongue…' Everyone thought inwardly.

”She is so cute!” Anna's eyes seemed to be glowing when she saw Pepper's reaction; she wanted to hug that girl so much!

Unlike the other two sisters, this one seems to be more like a child in Anna's eyes.

Anna's maternal instincts were somehow activated!

”Wawawawawawawa!” Pepper started to freak out when she saw Anna's gaze, and since she didn't know what to do, she hid behind Siena.

”Despite reacting like that, she is over 100 years old, you know?” Scathach exhibited a small smile.

”…” Anna opened her mouth wide in shock, that girl is older than me!? She couldn't see that in Pepper since her attitude was like a child.

'I think because it's a breed that lives a long time, children of that breed develop more slowly?” Anna thought it was quite possible that what she thought was true.

After all, she had seen something similar in the movies of that hobbit who was in search of rings, and she remembered that in those movies, the races that lived a long time took longer to grow mentally. She watched those movies with Victor and Leon from time to time.

She wasn't addicted to movies like Victor and Leon, but she watched them sometimes just to have fun with her family.

Scathach looked at Ruby:

”I don't need to introduce my youngest daughter, right? I think you know her well.”

”Y-Yeah.” Anna woke up from her stupor and looked at Ruby with a gentle look.

”Hi, Mother...” Ruby smiled gently and continued, ”May I ask how you got to this place?” For a few seconds, she looked at Violet and Sasha, who were at the top of the stairs...

”…” Violet and Sasha turned their faces and started whistling as if they hadn't done anything wrong.

In a way, it was Violet's fault for not paying attention to what she was talking about, but the girls wouldn't blame Violet for that, and the white-haired woman herself knew it too.

'Ugh, those girls...' Ruby already felt the headache coming thousands of miles away. It was a common consensus among wives that they shouldn't let Victor's parents get too involved in the supernatural world.

As ordinary humans, they'd better stay out of this world.

They may know about this world, but they should never actively participate in the vampire world. It was better for their own safety and also for their husband's mental health.
