“Now… Your father and I have to tell you something!” Elena said with a smile after clarifying the wedding issue.
“What?” Victor asked.
“We will be moving to Vein City!” Elena said with a smile as she looked at Theodore, “After seeing how Lara is improving here, we affirmed our decision,” she expressed it like this was a pleasant surprise.
“WHAT? Do you plan to live here by any chance?” Victor asked as he sweated a little. His parents being here would be a disaster!
“Not in this mansion…” it was Theodore who replied, “We will be staying with Luna, I bought her a plot of land in the west of the city a while back, and the mansion we built there had just been finished!” Theodore, who totally got his son, explained.
“Aren’t you returning to the archipelago?” Victor asked. This was a bit unusual.
“The situation in the family is a little troublesome currently… And I don’t want Luna to stay alone, she is pregnant you know!” he explained.
Victor nodded, in other words, his perverted father couldn’t fully enjoy himself with the pregnant Luna, so Elena was there for that!
“I understand… Lara will be staying with you, I presume?” Victor asked as he thought about something.
“Yes,” Elena excitedly said, “Theodore had decided to supervise her training by himself!” she said with a smile. In the family, only Max and Mike got direct tutoring from Theodore, and both of them held prominent positions in the family.
“Oh…” Victor frowned a little, but quickly hid it.
“We planned for Lara to go with us today, but Lily suggested that Lara should stay here tonight as she got a lot of luggage to pack… She sure has bought a lot of things since she moved in with you!” Theodore chuckled. “The luggage will get transported first thing in the morning and Lara will leave with us when the wedding is over!” He didn’t expect his baby girl to enjoy herself this much, she told him about her grand sleepover earlier, and it made him feel a little guilty for not allowing her a normal childhood before. But he didn’t want her to end up like Alice!
“Oh… I see… That would make things more convenient!” Victor said, giving Lily a secret Nod.
At first, Victor delayed the issue of fixing Lara’s bloodline because of her sleepover and fearing the effect of the misfortune curse. But later he totally forgot about it as he went out treasure hunting. He should have returned earlier…. Damn! her blood regeneration operation needed to be done tonight! Doing it later after his father began training Lara would be a problem, as she would improve suddenly and that would raise a lot of questions!
“That’s it then…We should be on our way, we have a lot of things to sort out in the new mansion,” Theodore said as he stood up followed by Elena. “I wanted to check on the wedding preparation but Aria told me she took care of things… But I still have to warn you, DON’T MESS THIS UP!” Theodore said, looking at Aria who was sitting beside him earlier. She nodded with a slight blush.
“I understand!” Victor said, then kissed his mother goodbye before quickly accompanying his parents to the door as if he was afraid that they would change their minds and decide to stay.
Theodore suddenly stopped.
"Victor... Is there anything you want to tell me?" he turned and asked Victor.
"No... Not at all..." Victor said with a smile. He just couldn’t wait for his parents to leave.
"Good..." Theodore said as he walked out.
Just when the extra extravagant car exited the mansion’s gate, Victor turned back and looked at the seemingly empty stairway behind him.
“Lara… Go change to the training suit I got you last week, then bring El and meet me down in the basement!” he said, Making the hiding girls poke their heads out. How did he find them?
“What are you waiting for?” Victor asked, as the girls quickly nodded and then ran to Lara’s room.
Victor shook his head as he knew what the girls were thinking about then turned to Lily, “Sorry, I will be busy tonight!” he said.
“It’s ok… We will have tomorrow night to make up for it…” she whispered with a blush that made the rest of the girls sigh… Tomorrow, the wedding night would surely not be their turn. It was either Lily, Lin, or Nova… The question was, who would be next? Would there be a real queue this time, or would he take them all at the same time?
The girls, who were feeling relieved after getting their in-law's blessing earlier, got nervous again as they began to think about various things. They had many questions, and only Margret, who had to suffer under Elena’s hateful glares all day long, had some answers. Perverted and depraved answers.
“Alex!” Victor suddenly said looking at the poor girl who had to stand up like a butler all day.
“Yes?” she asked nervously.
“Prepare to leave tonight, I have a mission for you… You better not screw this up, or I swear I would literally screw that sorry ass of yours!” Victor said mysteriously.
"What?" she asked nervously.
“Come with me!” he said then dragged the frowning Alex to the study where she was instructed on what to do.
When she left, she was so absentminded that she almost bumped into Hilda.
“What is wrong with you?” Hilda asked.
“No… Nothing…” Alex said with a blush as she ran away like a shy bride.
…
After giving a nod to Lily who was guarding the door and entering the room behind the second door in the basement, both Lara and El began to look around in wonder. The room was strange. It was as if it was taken from some low-budget fantasy movie.
It had a big strange wooden bathtub filled with some liquid. It had been pushed to the side with some chairs to make space in the center of the room where a mat was placed on the floor.
Other than that walls were full of strange inscriptions as if it were a lair for some wizard!
“Sit here!” Victor, who was waiting for them, told Lara as soon as she walked in, pointing for her to sit on the mat as another girl entered the room behind them with a jade box in her hand. It was Hana.
“What’s its grade?” Victor asked in anticipation. He made sure that the materials were of the highest quality.
“It’s not bad for a first try!” Hana said in a professional tone, but the stupid smile that was plastered on her usually grumpy face revealed the truth. She was really proud of her creation.
Victor nodded and opened the jade box. Inside, a bright purple marble-sized pill was placed carefully. It had a glass sheen to it, proof of its very high quality.
SUPREME BLOOD PILL, S
Fix depleted blood and increase lifespan.
Effects are dependent on ingredients and suitability.
“What is this, esteemed brother?” Lara asked curiously as she sat on the mat as ordered.
“Lara… What I am about to tell you shall stay a secret… No one, not even father or mother shall know about it!” Victor said, making Lara frown and then nod, she was clearly not convinced. El to the side just watched.
“Do you remember when I told you about the secret art Rex taught you?” Victor asked.
“Yes… It was faulty and it made me sick… I only got better after, my esteemed brother gave me the new art!” she said with sparkling eyes.
“That’s the problem, the art I taught you only stabilized your situation, it didn’t fully cure you! Although you are no longer feeling sick. If you stayed like this, you would surely have failed your ceremony!” Victor said, making the little girl gasp. Someone failing the ceremony was the greatest shame in the family!
“A few days ago, I got this rare cure made from a rare flower! Hana here is an Alchemist, and she was the one who prepared it!” Victor said carefully, taking the pill from the box as Hana silently cursed at him, she wondered if Lara would take it if she knew that it was made from baby’s blood combined with some very rare materials!
Hana had no idea where Victor got those things, but they made the pill surpass her expectations, and that was a feat by itself as Hana had the knowledge base of an entire family in her mind.
“Ahh….” Lara was surprised, “Then I am still sick now?” she asked looking at her little tender white hand.
“Yes! You can’t feel it normally, but didn’t you notice how you can only swing your spear for an hour before you get tired?”
“Ah! So that’s the reason!” Lara exclaimed as El put her hand on her face… Couldn’t Victor find a better lie? Who wouldn’t be tired after swinging a spear for an entire hour! She tried it when she accompanied Lara for her morning sword and spear-swinging routine a few days ago, and she was totally exhausted in just ten minutes! Yin, who was there, was able to survive for 45 Minutes.
“That’s why I tricked our father to let you stay with me! I wanted to take care of you!” Victor continued to scam the little girl, telling the truth this time.
“Ah… ” Lara was surprised. “You didn’t want to tell our esteemed father?”
“Yes, if ess...father knew about what happened to you he would ask questions… He would quickly find out that it was because of our brother’s incompetence...” Victor sighed, he didn’t want to help Rex and Luke, but he didn’t want his father to question him about how he cured Lara! And those two still had a role to play, a very painful role. “Luke has already been sent to the mines, and father is already angry with Rex! Can you imagine what would happen to them?”
“Ah… He would probably kill them…” Lara whispered. She really feared angering her father. She saw it a few years ago when Victor was seduced by that evil maid… Her father was super angry!
She was not supposed to see it, but she was sneaking around the mansion when she saw that woman getting fed to the dogs as the other servants watched.
“It would not be that severe. They are his sons after all!” Victor replied, “But they would lose a yard or two worth of skin before he gets satisfied…. I just don’t want our brothers to be punished over an innocent mistake, I am sure they didn’t know they were hurting you back then!” Victor lied. El could tell, but she said nothing. She had long figured out that Victor really cared about Lara.
“I see!” Lara nodded. She would never believe that her own brothers wanted to hurt her. “Then what if father asked me about the new art I am practicing?” she asked, she was getting smarter lately under El’s influence.
“Don’t tell him! Just practice the modified art I taught you, he will never notice! And after taking this you would be much stronger and would surely impress him when he starts supervising you tomorrow!” Victor explained.
“Um…” Lara was not happy with this, but she nodded regardless.
“Good, now I want you to take the pill then sit on the mat and begin to practice the 11th energy circulation routine of the art I taught you!” Victor explained as he handed them to her. “Just put the pill in your mouth when you reach the peak state. It will melt on its own, and you will feel some pain afterward that, maybe feel a little hot too, but this is natural. You just continue practicing as the pain increases. The longer you withstand the pain, the more powerful you will get afterward!” He explained.
“I understand,” Lara said as she held the Pill carefully.
“If it gets too unbearable, just stop the art. Although you would not get the full benefits, you would have been cured by that moment no matter what. I will be guarding here with El, so if you feel anything strange just tell me!” Victor said.
“Um…” Lara said as she frowned a little then shook her head and began to relax in a meditative pose, then slowly put the Pill in her mouth and closed her eyes.
Victor slowly found a chair and sat down with El and Hana who wanted to watch the effects of her creation.
Lara slowly relaxed on the mat in a meditative pose and then began to breathe in a set rhythm.
“What is the strange bathtub for? It is as if it was hastily built from old doors!” Hana asked as they waited for Lara, “I can smell the scent of the serpent clove from it… Are you giving your sister a herbal bath afterward?”
“Kinda…” he said.
“Isn’t that bathtub too big for her?”
“It was originally built for me, not her. I plan to use it for some R-rated action after the wedding,” Victor said mysteriously making El blush a little, “I wouldn't mind if you wanted to join me in it afterward!” he added to Hana.
“Blah! Like I would ever want that!” Hana spat as she looked away. Not realizing that she just refused the offer of her life!
El, who was listening carefully, eyed the bathtub… her late mother also had one of those. The villagers said she used it to receive business… She blushed. She was no longer the naive girl Victor met a couple of months ago. She now knew what a hooker was. She learned it the hard way in class… That stupid principal made sure to explain the ‘hooker’ principal to her thoroughly after she got in more than one fight because of this.

“Now… Your father and I have to tell you something!” Elena said with a smile after clarifying the wedding issue.
“What?” Victor asked.
“We will be moving to Vein City!” Elena said with a smile as she looked at Theodore, “After seeing how Lara is improving here, we affirmed our decision,” she expressed it like this was a pleasant surprise.
“WHAT? Do you plan to live here by any chance?” Victor asked as he sweated a little. His parents being here would be a disaster!

But he didn’t want her to end up like Alice!
“Oh… I see… That would make things more convenient!” Victor said, giving Lily a secret Nod.
