My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires

Chapter 794: An unforeseen situation.

Greek Underworld.

"Stop," Nyx ordered coldly as she jumped in front of Scathach, her expression completely serious—a seriousness she had never shown before.

Due to her tone of voice and actions, everyone immediately halted and looked at The Goddess of The Night.

Before anyone could ask what had happened, they heard Nyx speak.

"Erebus, appear, you cannot hide from me."

Hearing the name that came from Nyx's mouth, everyone immediately went on high alert.

Darkness where no light could pass fell upon the place, and then a man appeared.

Aphrodite and Nyx narrowed their eyes, covering themselves with their Divinity and dispelling Erebus' influence.

Aphrodite's clothing changed to her Divine Raiment, her long pink hair floated around her with pure Power, and 'Beauty' and 'Love' permeated the whole area.

Nyx did something similar, but she immediately stopped when she felt Aphrodite's outburst. When The Goddess of The Night looked at Aphrodite, she narrowed her eyes.

'Her Divinity of Love is on the verge of reaching that of a Primordial God of The First Generation...' To think that Aphrodite's strongest Divine Aspect would become Love was quite surprising to Nyx.

Originally, The Goddess of Beauty was essentially a Second-Generation Primordial Goddess like Thanatos, Cronos, and Hypnos, as she came into existence from the severed genitals of Uranus, who was Gaia's husband.

But everything indicated that this might change in the future. The Goddess of Beauty would change her Title to The Goddess of Love since her main and most powerful Aspect of Divinity now was Love.

"Nyx... Aphrodite... The Disciple of Dunn Scaith, Scathach Scarlett, and a former High-Level Demon who was once Lilith's General," Erebus didn't mention Morgana's name simply because he didn't know it.

"If you are here... It means this is an opportunity..." Erebus murmured.

It was worth noting that none of the girls liked what they heard.

"What do you want, Erebus? Do you want to fight?"

"A fight between us is pointless. It will only harm our Pantheon."

When two Primordial Gods of The First Generation fight, the effects are felt throughout the Pantheon, as they are the foundation that sustains it.

Because of this, they rarely fight or actively use their Power, preferring manipulation instead.

"What I want... I already achieved it with your arrival here."

Suddenly, The Underworld's ground began to tremble, and roars were heard in the distance.

Nyx widened her eyes and quickly looked in one direction. Using her Divine Senses that could see beyond the Realms, she saw The Underworld's gate being forcibly opened, and she saw Zeus, an unknown man, and Kronos standing side by side, looking at The Gates of The Underworld.

This unbelievable sight made her brain pause for a few seconds. Everyone in the Greek Pantheon knew about the eternal hatred between father and son, but now Zeus was naturally standing next to Kronos? What happened!? Didn't they hate each other!?

"Nyx! Talk to me, what happened!?" Scathach ordered as she transformed directly into her complete Count Vampire Form, a move Morgana replicated as well.

Morgana's skin began to turn grayer, and her Demonic features became more prominent. Pure radiation covered her body, and she started to float.

"Zeus and Kronos are standing side by side at The Underworld's Gate... And all of their armies are behind them." She completely ignored the unknown man; the sight of Zeus and Kronos together was just too unbelievable.

"Huh...?" What she said was so unbelievable that even Scathach was speechless for a few seconds.

"Zeus and Kronos together? Nyx, are you smoking illegal drugs?" Morgana said.

"I can't believe what I'm seeing either, okay? But this is reality," Nyx grumbled and turned her gaze back to Erebus.

"What have you done?"

"What was necessary." Darkness started to cover Erebus's body, and before anyone could react, crimson-red flames burst from the ground in front of Nyx, revealing a tall, muscular man holding her arm.

"Tartarus..." Before she could react, her arms started to burn.

"Gaahhh."

Scathach swung her spear and tried to pierce the man's head, but the man's head simply opened, and the attack went through him, hitting nothing.

Scathach narrowed her eyes, activating the Runes on her Spear, and covered it with Ice, repeating what she did before. However, all the attacks merely "passed through" the man without hitting.

"It's useless, God Slayer. Normal blades or even Anti-God ones don't work on Tartarus; it's impossible to harm him," the man remarked.

Scathach didn't listen; she kept attacking, refusing to believe this absurd "impossibility."

Morgana appeared beside Tartarus, covering her hands with pure radiation and tried to grab the man, but her hand merely passed through him.

"What's happening!?"

"His properties are like that of a ghost," Scathach responds. "It's impossible to affect him with normal means."

"Step aside, you two," Aphrodite ordered, and immediately Scathach and Morgana moved away. Soon after, a Pink Energy began to swirl in the area.

Aphrodite's Charm was being used to its fullest.

"Tartarus, release Nyx."

Aphrodite's pink eyes narrowed when she saw that it didn't work.

"Your Charm is powerful, but it doesn't work on us Primordial Gods," Erebus says. "Don't worry, it will all end quickly." He looked at Nyx, who had fallen to her knees.

"My Powers... What are you doing to me...?" Nyx feels all her Authority draining rapidly.

"Countermeasures. You've been acting too recently. I was planning to ignore you due to our past, but recent events proved that it was imprudent."

When the word "countermeasures" was heard, Nyx widened her eyes; she understood what Erebus was doing to her.

"...You're using a Fragment of Yggdrasil to seal my strength!? That was an item meant for use in emergencies against our enemies, Erebus!"

How was a Pantheon created? It was created through the influence of a World Tree. For a Pantheon to be established, this prerequisite was absolutely crucial.

Logically, the only way to seal the Powers of Primordial Gods, who came into existence with the birth of the Pantheon, was by using the very thing that influenced their existence.

"This is an emergency, and I must do it," Erebus stopped talking when he felt a surge of Energy coming from Aphrodite. He looked at the Goddess and saw that she was surrounded by a pillar of reddish-pink Energy.

'What is this? What is this reddish-pink Energy?' Erebus was extremely confused now; this Energy signature was not something he was familiar with.

Something was infecting Aphrodite's Energy, making her stronger, something extremely powerful and pure.

"You bastard, son of a bitch... How dare you ignore me? Ignore me? The Goddess of Beauty?"

"Release her!" Aphrodite ordered with an angry roar.

The muscular man hesitated for a moment, then opened his hand.

Those few seconds were enough for Scathach and Morgana to rush to Nyx and pull her away.

Tartarus snapped out of his trance and looked at Aphrodite.

"Daughter of Uranus, have you betrayed your Pantheon?"

"What if I did?"

"I see... It seems a reform is more necessary than Erebus had told me; even a Goddess like you is betraying the Pantheon," Tartarus commented as he threw a darkened twig towards Erebus.

Erebus catched the twig and looked curiously at it.

"How is she doing?" Morgana asked while looking at Nyx, who was holding her arm in pain.

"I don't know," Scathach declared.

"You don't know? How can you not know?" Morgana asked.

"I'm not an expert on Primordial Gods, okay?" Scathach responded bluntly. She didn't like this situation at all; facing two Primordial Gods was something she couldn't do now. Facing one Primordial God with the right weapons and enough preparation, she could handle, but two? And completely unprepared? That was completely out of her league.

Not to mention that the opponents' abilities were completely unknown.

After analyzing the twig, Erebus looked at Nyx. "A High-

Level God, huh... Half of your Power has been sealed... Probably, your privileges as a Primordial God have been sealed as well, hmm. I think it's good enough."

"Now, what should I do with all of you?"

Scathach reached into her pocket; there was an item to summon The Demon King, an item Victor gave her in case of emergency. She just needed to break the item, and Victor would appear... And with him, all Hell would break loose in The Greek Pantheon.

"What's your plan with all this, Erebus?" Nyx spoke with difficulty; she had never felt so weak before.

"Do you think I will tell you?" Erebus asked incredulously. "Please, Nyx. This is not a third-rate movie where the villain reveals his entire plan."

"Now surrender peacefully; without Nyx, your chance of escaping unscathed has dropped significantly."

Scathach was decisive; she was dealing with two Primordial Gods, and despite Aphrodite and Morgana's abilities to handle many things, this was not within their list.

Aphrodite's greatest strength was her Charm, where no one can resist it, while Morgana's superior Power can deal with Gods, but it wouldn't work on them now.

In other words, she was the only one who could react against them, putting them at a disadvantage.

Not to mention... Scathach could feel the earth tremors coming closer and closer—the Titans and Gods were coming.

"Fuck it. I'm doing it." Scathach took the item from her pocket and threw it in Erebus' direction.

Tartarus put his hand in front of Erebus and catched the item.

"An Orb...?" Tartarus commented.

"Not just an Orb... You'll see, this is connected to me, and when foreign energy touches the Orb..."

Crack.

"It shatters... And when that happens, the Orb summons someone."

Dark Energy began to cover the Orb, and seconds later, a dark hand emerges from the Orb, gripping Tartarus' wrist.

"Someone touched me?" Tartarus asked incredulously; the only Beings capable of touching him are those who could directly interact with the Soul or those Beings he allowed to touch him. Because of that, Scathach and Morgana's attacks merely passed through him.

And in the next moment, the silhouette of a man started to form, and seconds later, the man's appearance was fully formed.

Tall, short black hair, and violet eyes. An image Erebus knew very well.

"Victor!" Aphrodite and Morgana exclaimed.

"Demon King..." He didn't finish speaking before Tartarus' body was thrown in his direction.

Erebus retreated into the darkness and tried to hide... At least, he attempted to.

A hand of pure red Energy grabbed him and prevented him from escaping.

"Do you think you can leave after trying to intimidate my Wife?" The red hand started pulling Erebus from his shadow.

'How is he doing this?' Darkness is Erebus' own Concept; one cannot simply 'grab' the shadow and pull! That is impossible even for the Gods!

"Victor! The big guy is Tartarus, a Primordial God, and the man in front of you is Erebus, another Primordial God!" Scathach quickly provided information to Victor.

Victor's eyes gleamed with understanding, and he grasped why Scathach summoned him.

Before Victor could fully pull Erebus out of the darkness, a fist of pure Tartarus' flames punches him.

In the split second that the fist was about to hit him, Victor's face was covered by the violet Dragon Scales.

The entire ground was shattered behind him, but Victor felt nothing.

Even Tartarus himself was impressed by what he just witnessed, and he was not alone. Scathach, Morgana, Aphrodite, and Nyx were equally amazed.

'Just how resilient is his body?' Scathach thought; she completely underestimated a body that was remade by a World Tree and empowered by it, as well as a body that acquired the characteristics of a Dragon.

"Tartarus, huh? I'm not impressed."

"You hit like a bitch; that's probably why Gaia likes you—

does she prefer effeminate men?"

"You little..."

Victor didn't let him finish; he grabbed Tartarus' arm and pulled him towards him.

He headbutted the God's face.

"Ugh!"

Golden blood bursts out of the Primordial God's nose, temporarily disabling his 'invincibility'. Now even Scathach can attack him.

"Let me show you what a real punch feels like." Victor stopped using his arm to hold Erebus and simply controlled the negative Energy with his extra hands.

Victor's entire body completely changed, covering every inch with Dragon Scales. His hair grew down to his waist and became pure Miasma, while Junketsu, in the form of his gauntlets, fulfilled her Master's desire and became sharper.

He was not holding back; he couldn't afford to. He was dealing with two Primordial Gods.

Victor clenched his fist and punched Tartarus' face, sending him flying. Not satisfied, he concentrated on his stomach.

Everyone could see a violet light forming in his stomach and going towards his throat.

"Damn, it's a breath!" Aphrodite exclaimed. She quickly drew close to Nyx, picked her up like a sack of potatoes, and moved away with Scathach and Morgana following.

In less than a few minutes, the whole situation changed, all because of Victor's presence.

In that moment, Scathach truly understood the feelings of the girls who talked about Victor.

Before, she didn't think much of it because of her confidence that she could handle anything, but now, against opponents above her league? She understood the girls' feelings.

"An anomaly, huh..." She laughed internally, her desire to reach him becoming even stronger.

"I not only need to get stronger, I need tools capable of cutting a Soul, just like the Progenitor's Powers." Scathach immediately understood her weaknesses; in fact, she already saw this deficiency in her fight against Thanatos. Despite killing the enemy, she couldn't finish him off due to his unique properties.

ROAAAAAAAR!

Chaotic violet Energy erupted out of Victor's mouth like a powerful beam and flew towards Tartarus.

BOOOOOOOM!

A deafening explosion burst out in the distance, but Victor didn't care about that. He quickly ran towards Erebus and grabbed him by the neck.

"This Energy... I see... Negative Energy in its purest form. It seems you have the support of a Negative World Tree. Considering you are the current King of The Great Hell, it's understandable... Your Powers to interact with Souls have grown stronger thanks to it, which is why you can touch me even in Darkness." The way he spoke suggested that he already expected this, yet at the same time, he didn't.

On the day Victor used all the Negative Energy in his fight against Diablo, all the Gods with deeper understanding realized what that Energy was, and Erebus was one of them.

He just underestimated how proficient Victor was at controlling that Negative Energy because on the day he fought Diablo, he used the Energy in a simpler way, not as complex as now.
