Chapter 1025: A Reunion in Paradise. 2

[You didn't erase the memories of that event from the girl... Won't that be bad for her?]

[The past cannot be forgotten, because it is through it that we learn about our weaknesses and our mistakes. I firmly believe in those words, but in situations like this, I agree with you.]

[So why didn't you do it?]

[Unfortunately, it's not up to me to decide that; it's up to Vanessa, or my disciple as her guardian, to decide. I've done my part; I brought her back. From here on, it's the work of the two of them.]

[Free will, huh... Sometimes you're so inconsistent, Darling. You believe in free will, but you do nothing when your faithful are clearly brainwashing others.] Roxanne smiled as she pointed.

[My dear, I am a hypocrite; I've never denied that.] Victor chuckled internally. [Free will is a good thing, but it needs control, or things can get out of hand, as ancient humanity was proof of.]

[The only difference in my attitude is that I let people close to me make their own decisions so that they can grow.]

[I know, you do the same with my sisters and our daughters.] Roxanne nodded.

[If there's one thing I agree with the primordials on, it's their thinking about balance. Excessive control isn't good; a bit of free will in the form of rewards is necessary. Such principles were applied in hell, and look at how prosperous society is.]

[It only works well because demons are simple beings.]

Victor laughed: [All beings are simple in some way, my dear. 'Complexity' only exists because people think it does. For someone like me who can see through the facade, beings are quite simple.]

[In the end, Darling, I just want to see how your dear disciple will develop now; because of that, he 'only' resurrected Vanessa and did nothing more, he didn't even change her race.] Amara spoke.

[Exactly.] Victor nodded. [What decisions will she make? How will she teach her daughter? Will her daughter follow in her mother's footsteps?]

[It's doubts like these that make me want to observe how they will grow... I understand a bit now of Scathach's feeling when teaching other beings; it's quite addictive.]

...

Violet, Sasha, Ruby, Natashia, and Naty watched this scene with melancholic looks.

"... Sasha... About-."

"No, Ruby." Sasha immediately stopped Ruby's words; the two knew each other well enough to understand each other's thoughts instantly.

"My mother sacrificed herself for me; she died for me... Although I miss her, I want to honor her memories and her choices... I won't ask Darling to bring her back."

"... Sasha, she died cowardly."

"Just like many other beings died cowardly." Sasha continued to look at the fallen forms of Valeria and Vanessa.

Naty and Natashia remained silent; they couldn't comment on this decision. After all, if Natashia hadn't been so troubled, maybe she wouldn't have created a second personality like Naty, and maybe none of this would have happened... There were many 'what ifs,' but in the end, it didn't matter; the past was already written, she could only learn from it and not try to make the same mistake again.

Violet sighed. "You don't have to be like this, Sasha."

Sasha fell silent at Violet's words.

"It's okay to miss her, it's okay to be selfish. If you wish your mother back, Darling will overturn the entire cosmos to make it happen... Just as he will for Ophis."

"It's not selfishness, Violet." Sasha sighed and shook her head. "It's about understanding my mother's feelings."

"Once in the past, I asked her if she weren't the Maid of the Fulger Clan, if she weren't human, what would she wish to be?"

Memories of the past echoed in Sasha's mind.

…

Former Fulger Clan Mansion, in Sasha's room.

A young Sasha looked at the woman who was narrating a story to her, a human adventure story.

"What I wish to be, huh... I don't wish to be anything." She chuckled softly. "I just want peace... Although the idea of being a vampire with a long life is appealing... Being a vampire is very lonely, relationships are not as described in the books I narrate to you; rarely any of us achieve true happiness."

"Everything is about politics or power, not to mention the constant dangers that occur in our lifestyle."

"Instead of wishing to be someone different, I want something simpler. I don't care if I'm a vampire or human; I just wanted to have a common life, a healthy family, a daughter, a loving husband; I wanted to have common problems that all humans seem to have."

"... Many can't understand this desire of mine, but I don't judge them; after all, it's just a wish." She laughed.

"I don't understand... This is too complicated." Sasha spoke with a confused expression.

"Fufufu, you'll understand in the future, I think. Now, let's sleep; you have training tomorrow."

"Ugh, fine."

...

"She said she wished to have a family, a healthy family..." Sasha bit her lip. "She said she wished for a common life."

Oh, Sasha wanted to be selfish so badly; she wanted so much to just go to her husband and ask him to bring her mother back, but she knew that wasn't what her mother wanted.

"Instead of bringing her back, I wish for her to reincarnate and have a fulfilling life away from all this confusion that is our life."

Silence fell in the room; Natashia, Naty, and Violet couldn't relate to the words Sasha spoke.

As active women, they would be bored to death with a normal life, but they could respect the wish of someone so dear to Sasha.

On the other hand, Ruby understood this feeling a little. Sometimes, she thinks about just having a common life like in those Slice of Life anime, but that's an understanding born from her Otaku head; she wouldn't give up her current life for anything.

She loves her husband very much; she loves her daughters very much, and the power she holds in her hands now. The current status of her family was something she always fought for.

She helped her husband make the family the 'strongest,' an untouchable family where no one would dare to provoke them; that was her greatest wish, and she finally achieved it.

To ensure that this status remains, she is deeply involved in faction projects, and even in the new clone research and future biological weapons.

Ruby is a scientist at heart, and with Velnorah's experience, she has reached new heights in her research. With her current knowledge, she could easily clone someone like Vlad.

She couldn't make him a Progenitor; after all, that status is closely related to the rules of creation, there can't be two progenitors of the same species at the same time, but she could clone the man's strength and experience; instead of turning him into a noble vampire, she would turn him into a dragon.

Now imagine a force of 5000 Vlads with dragon powers invading a world? Such a thing is possible now; only more work is needed. After all, unlike technology, biology is delicate; any mistake, and the body will turn into an aberration, and Ruby doesn't have a Cheat like Victor who, thanks to his divine powers related to dream, madness, creation, and Begin, he can literally do anything in the body of a weaker target.

"If you want to know where your mother will reincarnate so you can take care of her, it's possible, Sasha."

The girls looked at the entrance and saw Jeanne leaning against it with her arms crossed.

"Since when have you been here?" Naty asked curiously.

"Since the moment Ruby started talking to Sasha," Jeanne replied.

"... What? I don't sense anything," Naty said incredulously.

"That's proof that my training is paying off," Jeanne laughed. "Primordial energy is very versatile; with it, I can easily hide. Primordials use a similar technique to hide from the senses of beings, although they are more proficient than I am at it."

"... Fair enough," Naty just huffed; she couldn't argue with that nonsense, after all, she was talking to a woman directly related to a primordial.

"Back to the point, if you want to know where your mother will reincarnate, Sasha, I can do that for you."

"... Is it okay?" Sasha asked. "I don't want to bother."

"Of course, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Remember, my brother manages the entire cycle of reincarnation. If I ask him, I'm sure he'll do it; after all, for him, it's as easy as breathing."

"Thank you, Jeanne... I really appreciate it."

"You're welcome," Jeanne smiled gently.

...

30 minutes passed, thirty long minutes. The loud crying had long ceased, and all that was left was trembling sobs. The pent-up emotions were being released, and the weight Valeria carried was slowly diminishing.

Vanessa had fallen asleep some time ago. The shock of her revival and the deep psychological pressure she was feeling were too much for the girl. She only managed to 'relax' completely when she saw her mother; she was very cautious.

Quite normal considering what she had been through.

"... M-Master... Thank you very much. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you..."

Victor just continued with his gentle smile and nodded; words were unnecessary. Valeria completely understood Victor's intentions; she received this 'reward' for her efforts. Victor didn't need to state the obvious to her.

"Take a week off, my dear disciple."

Valeria opened her eyes widely. "... B-but-." She tried to argue, but Victor interrupted her.

"Rest, my disciple. You've worked well... No, you've done a great job. I've always been keeping an eye on your efforts, and such diligence deserves to be rewarded."

Valeria fell silent as disbelief showed on her face; a wave of positive feelings exploded within her — feelings of gratitude, feelings of happiness. She always knew he was watching, but hearing it directly from the man himself is very different. The impact is different.

"Not to mention... She needs your presence to adjust to the new world, more than ever, she needs her mother's presence."
