Chapter 995: Daddy loves his daughters and spoils them so much.
"I see you're quite lost in thought."
"I'm just trying to figure out who betrayed me," Leon spoke.
"Practically everyone. After all, even if you don't have much authority, your position is still very important as stated before."
Leon shrank slightly upon hearing Anna's words.
"Now that we've laid our cards on the table, let's resolve this like adults," Anna said as a faint aura enveloped her body. This 'aura' wasn't her power or anything like that. It was her new temperament, after all, she was also an 'Empress'.
"Very well..." Leon sighed, looking at Anna seriously. "What do you propose?"
"We continue as we were before, with the only difference being that you're no longer associated with me, and you're free to pursue your harem or whatever you want," Anna said.
"So, practically nothing will change then."
"Of course it will. There will be no more drama between us; we can be the family we were before," Anna said.
"... Hmm, and what about the children?"
"What about them?" This time it was Victor who spoke.
Anna felt the urge to sigh internally when she saw the overprotectiveness emanating from Victor's body. Even though their daughters were more powerful than many older gods out there, the man was overly protective.
Just the mere mention of his daughters made Victor switch into total annihilation or primal destruction mode.... Yes, there was no middle ground; those who threatened his daughter would die in the worst possible way, their existence twisted by an Eldritch horror. A death befitting those heathens.
It's worth noting that this is one of the reasons why his daughters always look up to their father and are obsessed with him.
Knowing he should choose his words carefully, Leon said, "Can I meet them? After all, they're sort of my granddaughters?"
"... Hmm....." Victor just continued to look at him while deep in thought, his crimson-violet eyes flickering between a dangerous and calm state as if he were wrestling with his honor and possessiveness.
Knowing that if she didn't speak up, Victor's response would likely be negative, Anna said, "You can do that, but... there's a problem."
"... What's the problem?" Leon asked, sweating coldly, it's worth noting that he had a lot of nerve to ask that to Victor while the man's state was quite volatile now.
"Will the little girls be interested in you?"
For some reason, Leon felt like he had just been struck by an invisible arrow that pierced through his body deeply. While clutching his heart, Leon stammered, "W-What do you mean?"
"Exactly what I said," Anna sighed.
"Like, how can I put it, these little girls are... Huuh... Very extreme in how they express their interest?" Anna spoke a bit confused, she just didn't want to say 'dysfunctional' because that word was just rude, they weren't dysfunctional, they were just special.
"... Huh?" Leon didn't understand immediately, but after remembering Stella's reaction upon hearing that Victor had returned, he understood.
"... Are they all like Stella?"
"Yes." Anna's answer was simple.
Silence followed, but it was obvious that Leon was quite shocked.
"By all, I mean ALL." Leon was quite specific.
"Yes, all my daughters are like that." Anna nodded. "It's a difficult task to get them interested in anything other than Victor, their world practically revolves around him, and I'm not saying that metaphorically."
Anna sighed, this was one of the topics that she also felt uncomfortable with, after all, her beloved daughter only had eyes for her father, even her initial words were Daddy, much to her chagrin.
Victor smiled gently when he heard these words, practically flowers bloomed around him creating a very uncomfortable atmosphere for Leon who felt quite... Intimidated... Intimidated in a different way.
Anna sighed when she saw this beautiful image of her husband and secretly took a photo, and kept it in her treasure. Seeing Leon's state of falling for Victor's deadly charm, she created a reality filter around her to have the effect of making Victor more 'acceptable'.
Something she could only do because Victor wasn't using all his charm and holding back.
Visibly, Leon sighed in relief as he muttered. "Yes, I don't like that side. My business is not sausage fighting, but cave penetration."
Something Anna heard, but she pretended she didn't hear it. "So, what do you think, Darling?"
Anna asked, she made a proposal, but the one making the real decision was Victor, now that he was more 'calm', he could be more cordial.
Normally, he is not like this, but as seen, anything related to his daughters and other men is a complete taboo for Victor... Even if this 'man' is his former father.
Victor has no distinctions, his possession of his daughters reached a level where any 'man' who wasn't him was a threat to be eliminated.
Honestly, Anna thinks he is exaggerating too much, after all, his daughters will never leave his side, but she didn't comment on it, after all, Victor wasn't doing anything wrong, he was just ensuring the protection of his family, something that She thinks it's very beautiful.
... Yes, Anna isn't very normal either.
"Hmm…" The smile that literally bloomed flowers around her dimmed slightly, and he began to think.
'My beautiful daughters finding another man?... Hell no! Kill him!' Possessive side of him was against it.
'It's okay, right? He is our father, a man we respect, not to mention he knows his place, he will not fall in love with our daughters.' His warrior side spoke with a slight tone of possession.
'You know very well that this is not 100% correct, after all, our daughters are beautiful! They inherited our beauty, and the beauty of our wives!'
'From my wife! They're mine!' Victor growled, and both Victors looked at him with a blank expression.
'...Dude, relax, even with your unconsciousness you are possible.' The two spoke at the same time.
'Mine!' He growled even more.
