Chapter 352: Hahaha~, Welcome, Stranger!

"Stranger, Stranger!"

"Welcome to Hell!"

"…Eh?" The man was paralyzed, but when the screams of the beings surrounding him were heard,

He looked around and saw a literal vision of Hell.

The man's face darkened, and he muttered:

"Well, Fuck..."

"..." Kaguya felt like facepalming when she saw what Victor did. Her Master really had a twisted sense of humor.

"Now, Stranger."

"You have 2 choices."

"...." The man looked at the being in front of him, and he felt that he recognized him from somewhere, but he couldn't think of anything due to the current situation.

"First, help me with something, earn a lot of money, and get out of this Hell."

'...He's going to go through with it!?' Kaguya was speechless, she thought he would stop his pranks!

"Second, you remain in this Hell."

"…I don't have a choice from the start?" The man felt wronged.

"Exactly."

'Well, that's a good way to get his cooperation...' Kaguya felt quite surprised.

Maria lightly touched Kaguya's back.

"...?" Kaguya looked at her fellow Maid.

"You should be used to Master's pranks by now." she whispered.

"...I am, but... It never ceases to amaze me."

Her Master had a strange way of convincing people to do what he wanted.

"Ugh... I chose the first choice." It's not like he had anything to think about, and he really didn't want to stay here.

"Good." Victor laughed and held up his hand for the man to take.

Unconsciously, the man held Victor's hand.

Victor pulled him up to his feet, saying, "It will be a pleasure to work with a Living Ghost."

"You know what I am..." Just when Victor said that he realized he was holding the man's hand.

'How is this possible?' He was quite shocked that anyone could touch him, and he was pretty sure he hadn't allowed that to happen since he was still in an 'intangible' state.

But still, this man touched him!

'Is he the Devil himself!? The King of Hell!?' The man's face darkened as he realized who was in front of him.

"Yeah." Victor laughed:

"What's your name, Stranger?"

"Yuuya Shinji." The man with white hair, incredibly pale skin as if he were dead, and black eyes spoke up.

"Yuuya is my last name, and Shinji is my first name."

"Shinji them." Victor nodded his head.

"...That name, did you choose it for yourself?" Kaguya asked while she had a strange face.

"Yes." He responded unconsciously. He didn't even look at the woman and just stared at Victor. After all, the man's presence was very strong,

And he felt very pressured.

"Those were the names of two people important to me." He continued.

"I see..." She felt awkward because of his name, that seemed to be two first names.

"What shall I call you, sir...?" He asked Victor.

"Alucard... Alucard is enough." Victor flashed a small smile and then turned and walked through the door as their time was up.

"... AHHH!" Hearing the name come out of the man's mouth, Shinji opened his mouth in shock.

"Congratulations, you've been tricked." Maria spoke with a small smile.

"...I don't know how to feel about you congratulating me... umm."

"Maria." The blonde-haired Maid replied.

"... Maria." Shinji repeated, speaking as if trying to memorize the woman's name. He then turned to look at the Japanese-featured woman beside her and felt his body tremble.

He finally recognized the one responsible for bringing him to this location.

Remembering the sight of a being completely covered in darkness with razor-like hair running after him, he nearly shat himself.

"Don't run away. My Master will love to see a valuable specimen like you!"

Remembering the words the woman had spoken, his 'body' cooled even further.

'She's here! That devil!'

"...Oya? It looks like he's scared of you."

"Yes... I don't know why." Kaguya played innocent.

...

"What are your choices?" Victor asked.

"We will participate." The salaryman spoke.

"We?" Victor flashed an amused smile.

"They made me their leader... Don't ask me why."

"Maybe it's because you've got the biggest balls." Victor's smile grew.

"...I don't know what to say about that." He was honest, he was just trying to understand his situation.

With the power that Victor possessed, he could kill him any time he wanted, and he would hate to die without understanding why.

"Hahaha~." Victor laughed in amusement.

Though the people around him weren't amused at all.

"What is your name?"

"Watanabe Gintoki." He replied matter-of-factly.

"Gintoki then." Victor spoke.

"...Oh, before you put me on some plane, know that I have a peculiar constitution."

"Heh~, tell me more."

"...I bring bad luck to everyone around me, but for some reason, I'm not affected... I guess." He couldn't tell if he was lucky or not. After all, he still worked for a Black company, and he'd only met with Supernatural Beings by chance.

But despite all these encounters, he'd never been rendered into a near-death state, which would be impossible for a normal person.

So he must be lucky?

He couldn't say.

"That's peculiar..." Victor touched his chin and looked around quickly. He saw everyone's expressions and realized they were confused too.

"It's better if I work alone, or any plans you make could go down the drain." He was warning Victor for two reasons.

If he found out that his power affected whatever plan he was planning, he most likely wouldn't be happy.

He didn't want to die.

Therefore, he judged that it would be better to tell the truth from the beginning.

Victor's mind began to spin, and soon his smile grew. He formed a plan:

"I have the perfect plan for you..."

"..." Gintoki's spine shivered a little when he saw Victor's smile, he was scary!

Cough.

"What shall I call you, sir?"

"Alucard."

"Right…"

"Now that introductions are out of the way, Ladies and Gentlemen, accompany my maids. They will get your personal bank information, and when the service is finished, you will see the money being transferred to your account."

"Remember, the value depends on the result of your work."

"... Alucard." The same woman who raised her hand in the past did it again.

"Yes?"

"How are you going to judge our performance? It's not like we're in a company with cameras where you can surveil us." she asked in a respectful tone.

She wanted to make sure the beings around her didn't cheat or something.

"...Instead of answering your question, I'll ask you something else." Victor's smile widened.

"Since when did you think you weren't being watched?"

"…Eh?"

Kaguya smiled slightly, and without anyone noticing, she tapped her heel lightly on the ground, and the surroundings began to change.

A darkness began to come out of Victor's body, spreading throughout the room, and soon it covered everything, and in the time of a few seconds, thousands of blood-red eyes could be seen staring at everyone present.

"Ihhh!" The woman fell to the ground in shock, and not just them, everyone around her did too.

Even Gintoki and Shinji fell to the ground as they looked at Victor, who at some point had thousands of eyes showing all over his body which was completely covered by a deep darkness with shades of red.

It wasn't just Victor's Wives and their maids that were here.

A few hundred members of Clan Blank were also there, members who were personally led by Kaguya, who became something of a second leader of Clan Blank.

After all, it would be impossible to capture several hundred Supernatural Beings with Maids alone.

Did Scathach know about this?

She did not know.

Kaguya brought the members out of her own will, and only her Master could order the members she had summoned.

Despite respecting Scathach as a great General and as a master,

Kaguya would always prioritize her Master.

Unless her Master personally ordered her to listen to Scathach's commands, Kaguya would not deliberately do so.

'Your Master will always come first, and that will never change, not even if the world ends the next day.'

That's the mindset of a Maid...

A perfect Maid

"Your work will be judged by my most trusted Maid." Victor lightly touched Kaguya's shoulder.

"..." Kaguya held back the urge to smile widely when she heard Victor's words.

"It's by her words that dictate whether you earn the money or not."

"...." Everyone looked at Kaguya, and unconsciously everyone understood.

That woman is the one holding the leashes on their necks.

Victor turned around, and all the darkness returned to his body.

"See you later, Ladies and Gentlemen."

[When you finish your work, come see me, and bring me Gintoki and Shinji when you arrive. I have plans for them... I'll tell you what I want you to do too.]

[Yes, Master.] Kaguya replied.

"Maria, let's go."

"Yes." Since Kaguya was around, she was acting more restrained since she didn't want to be lectured by this woman.

"Oh..." Victor stopped walking and seemed to remember something as he looked directly at Shinji.

"Don't you dare run away." His violet eyes gleamed slightly.

"...I won't, I'm not that stupid." From the moment Victor touched his body, the idea of running didn't cross his mind.

"Ahh~, it's really nice to talk to smart people." Victor chuckled lightly.

...

Outside the room, Victor looked at the people being tortured and said:

"It's your turn now, Maria."

"...Okay, I'll try."

"Hahaha~." He chuckled lightly as he pets Maria's head, "No need to be so tense. I'll be around if anything happens, and remember you aren't a normal Ghoul."

"You have the status of a King... A Queen, in your case, you should be able to handle it perfectly."

Feeling more comfortable with the caress on her head, Maria relaxed.

"...I'll count on you then, Master."

"Umu, you can always count on me."

'I know.' She spoke to herself while flashing a soft smile.
