My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires-Chapter 637: Subspecies?

Chapter 637: Subspecies?

"Darling, I think the correct term is not a 'New Race'." Ruby began to speak while looking at Morgana as if she were a lab rat.

A look that made Morgana unconsciously cringe.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Victor asked.

"You know about the Ghouls and the Adrastella Clan, correct?" Ruby spoke.

"Yes… Oh." Victor now understood what Ruby was hinting at.

"Is she a Noble Vampire Subspecies?"

"Yes, if she were a New Race, as you said, she would have become the Progenitor of that Race just like Medusa, but she didn't. So I believe it's more accurate to say that she is a Subspecies of Vampires just like Clan Adrastella and Ghouls," Ruby confirmed.

"... A Progenitor is The Beginning of an Entire Race and the Sub-Species derived from it. Morgana was born from you, a Progenitor of Vampires since she evolved when she came into contact with your Bloodline. So it is fair to say that you created a new Subspecies of Noble Vampires derived from Demons." Scathach added.

"Mmm..." Victor made sounds as if he was thinking about something. Then, he approached Morgana again and watched her closely; this time, he carefully observed the Core of Morgana's Soul, something he hadn't paid attention to before because he was very excited about his discovery.

"... This is..." Victor opened his eyes wide when he saw Morgana's Soul Core.

"What did you see?" Ruby asked with a serious face.

"… You know that the Core of the Soul is usually unchanging, correct?" Victor spoke.

"Huh…?" Ruby didn't understand.

"For example, the Species you were when you were born is what your Soul 'Core' represents. Even if you changed Race through outside influence, 1% of what you were before would still remain, and that 1% contains all the information like external appearance, personality, etc."

"Look at Maria, for example," Victor said as he pointed to Maria.

The girls looked at the Maid.

"… Me?" Maria pointed to herself.

Victor approached Maria and started touching Maid, investigating her Soul:

"She was a Human who, due to Sasha's mistake, became a Ghoul. When that happened, her Soul was 1% Human, 99% Ghoul."

"When I turned her into Vampire Noble, the percentages became: 1% Human, 1% Ghoul, and 98% Vampire Noble."

"Because of that 1% Ghoul that still existed in her Soul, she can use the Powers she had when she was a Ghoul."

"And since Ghouls are a Subspecies of Vampire, it is correct to say that this 1% became Maria's Bloodline. Because of that, this Power did not weaken as it did with Morgana's Demonic Powers as Morgana was a Demon who became a Noble Vampire, not a member of the Vampyric Subspecies."

"Maria's Power grew stronger because it merged with her Noble Vampire side, thus creating a new Bloodline allowing her to create and control new members of the Subspecies of Vampire known as Ghouls."

Looking closely at the Core of Maria's Soul, Victor spoke, "As expected, it's the same..." He muttered in realization.

'Her Soul became entirely one of a Noble Vampire. Her Human and Ghoul sides merged completely with her Noble Vampire side... I wonder what caused the change; she wasn't like that before. Was it because of my influence or because she got stronger?'

"You guys know about the nature of Demons, right?"

"... Demons are creatures born in Hell through the 'bad' parts of the Soul of a Mortal. We cannot die because we are already dead, so when someone kills a Demon without using its weakness, it will return to the Hell it belongs to." Morgana spoke.

"Correct. Because of this nature, it is more accurate to say that Demons are something similar to Evil Spirits, similar to the Gods in essence. After all, if you removed the 'Concept' of a God, all that would remain would be a High-Level Spirit."

"..." Victor remained silent for a few seconds to allow the girls to absorb the things he said; he then continued:

"Now comes the interesting part, Vampires and Demons are the same in essence."

"… What do you mean by that?" Sasha asked.

"He means we're 'evil', on the same dark side of the scale," Ruby spoke, and soon her eyes fluttered open.

"Seems you've understood, Ruby."

"What happened here was the same thing with Viviane, only through a different method..."

"Natashia said that Viviane was born of a God and a Fairy. She is a Demigod, and such an existence only came to be born without problems due to the very nature of the Gods, being that they are technically High-Level Spirits; because of that, she is a Perfect Hybrid."

"You are right but wrong at the same time," Victor spoke.

"...."

"The cases are similar, but the circumstances are completely different."

"Morgana came into existence as a Demon and subsequently gained the Mortal flesh called a 'Vampire' through Vlad."

"When she absorbed my Bloodline, what happened was this: Her Vampyric side absorbed her Demon side, making her a new Subspecies of Vampire."

"A Demonic Vampire."

"She is not a Hybrid like Viviane, but a Noble Vampire who subsumed the Traits of a Demon and took that Power for herself, much like what happened to Clan Adrastella."

"..." Ruby, Scathach, Natashia, Jeanne, and Agnes opened their eyes wide as they realized the consequences of what Victor had just said.

"Hmm, I heard everything and understood nothing," Violet spoke.

"Same here." Sasha also spoke.

"I gave up halfway through," Morgana added with a proud smile.

"...." Violet and Sasha just rolled their eyes.

"Put simply and easily to understand; my Bloodline forced your Vampire side to subsume your Demonic side, and in doing so, you acquired the full characteristics of your Demonic side without suffering any kind of damage because your 'Core' that represents 'you' was merged seamlessly."

"Essentially speaking, you have been reborn as a Pure Vampire Noble. You are no longer 1% Demon and 99% Noble Vampire but a complete Vampire Noble with the Traits of a Demon," Victor explained.

'Just like Maria, only a little different; after all, Maria completely absorbed her Ghoul and Human sides. She's become a 100% Pure Noble Vampire, and her Ghoul Powers became something like a Lineage and not Traits from another Race like members of the Adrastella Clan and Morgana. Is this because Ghouls are closer as a Species to Noble Vampires? After all, if we're going to talk about hierarchy, Ghouls are even lower than Vampire Slaves, hmmm....'

'Yes, this is definitely my fault. Is it because of my Blood? I think it's more likely than my influence. After all, Blood has a clearer result… hmm… I should check the other girls too, and Nero, just in case.' Victor thought.

"This isn't as simple as being reborn or anything like that, Darling. Your Blood basically replicated what Clan Adrastella did, but in a very short timeframe."

"You basically skipped over 2000 years worth of evolution in just a few seconds, and in that way, you achieved the same result that Clan Adrastella had. Eleanor will cry blood if she hears about this…." Ruby finished explaining.

That was why the women who understood what Victor said were shocked; Victor once again broke their common sense.

"....." Morgana just looked at Victor and Ruby as if they were speaking incomprehensible words to her.

Yes, she still didn't understand anything, just like Violet didn't either.

"Haaah, just think that your Vampire Noble side has become you entirely after absorbing your Demonic side, thus creating a new Subspecies of Vampire Nobles derived from my Blood."

"Ohhhh, now I get it." Morgana and Violet spoke at the same time.

Victor just facepalmed. He thought it was adorable, but it also gave him a headache at the thought of having to explain it to the two of them later.

Wait... Two?

Victor looked at Sasha.

Seeing Victor's gaze, the blonde snorted, "Humpf, I already understood after the second explanation. I'm not as slow as Violet and Morgana."

"Oyy! What do you mean by that, Bitch!?" Violet and Morgana spoke at the same time.

"Humph, you heard me! Or are you going deaf?" Sasha snorted.

"What!? You want to fight!?" Morgana snapped.

"Let's Fight!" Violet screamed.

When Sasha was going to say something to try to reduce the tension she had created, she heard from Victor:

"No violence; just use words."

"Okay~" Violet and Morgana readily agreed.

"W-Wait, Vic, you have to help me here!"

"..." Victor just smiled kindly at Sasha and didn't say anything.

"Ughh!" Sasha groaned in frustration.

"Tsk, the dumb blonde is no biggie. She had to ask Victor for help." Morgana spoke.

A vein bulged on Sasha's head:

"Who are you calling a dumb blonde, bitch!?"

"..." Jeanne, Agnes, and Natashia just shook their heads when they saw this scene.

"Tsk, this feat just opens the door to a bunch of shit. If Demons really are like Gods, does that also mean Demons can acquire Concepts? Something like Famine, Plague, etc.?" Ruby spoke.

"I don't think that's possible," Jeanne said.

Ruby looked at Jeanne.

"Although they are similar, Gods are different from Demons, and it's not about them being good or anything like that, but because their very existence is conducive to encroaching their Will upon a Concept, whether that Concept is Positive or Negative."

"On the other hand, Demons are just the remains of a 'complete' Soul that split in two and was thrown into Heaven and Hell."

"A Demon cannot harbor a Concept until its Soul is complete."

"… What if they have a complete Soul?" Ruby spoke.

"..." Jeanne opened her mouth to say something but closed it.

"For example, Morgana. She is no longer just any Demon that was an incomplete Soul. Vlad gave her a Mortal body and a complete Soul by turning her into a Noble Vampire, and Victor gave her the potential he had in his Bloodline."

"… You're pretty smart, huh. Yes, what you said is likely to happen, but only in the case of Morgana."

"But even if she turns into a God upon encroaching upon a Concept, she will be a Vampire God, not a Demonic God like Lilith."

"Because essentially speaking, she's not a Demon anymore, but a Noble Vampire, huh..." Ruby spoke.

"Correct," Jeanne spoke.

After a few more seconds of silence, Ruby sighed in relief, "That's good. I wouldn't know how to deal with Demons turning into God-like Beings. That's a lot of shit I do not want to deal with."

"You overthink things, Ruby. You don't have to deal with everything that happens in the world either."

"I don't want to deal with everything that happens in the world either. It's too much work."

"... Huh?"

"I just want to make plans and countermeasures for all sorts of Species and Entities to protect my Family."

"..." Jeanne opened her eyes wide, and seconds later, she displayed a small gentle smile:

"If that's the case, I can help you. I gained a lot of knowledge in my travels."

Ruby opened her eyes a little; she didn't expect those words, but they were welcome, so she smiled gently and said:

"... Thanks."

"You're welcome. You are my Family now, after all."

Victor, Scathach, Agnes, and Natashia, who were nearby, just looked at this exchange with gentle smiles. This kind of interaction was quite lovely to see.

Mainly on Scathach's and Victor's part. The two liked to see Ruby getting along with other people, which was rare due to her cold nature and being a person of few words.

Sasha, Violet, and Morgana didn't see this because they were arguing with each other in the background.
