My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires

Victor fought and fought and fought more. The more he battled, the more he learned the enemy's patterns. The more he killed, the more he became stronger…. And the more he learned about the Empire of Light.

Even though he was a clone, he hadn't lost his ability to evolve and become stronger.

But even for Victor, the situation was getting more complicated with each passing moment. Before, he was barely getting hit, but now, he was getting hit, and with each passing moment, the enemy Empire's resources became more complex, and the level of danger increased.

And even as a clone, his senses were very high, so he could sense that something was being done to the sun of this solar system.

And he was surprised by this development. 'They're willing to casually erase a solar system like that?' Victor kicked the air, grabbed the enemy by the head, and threw it into the middle of the enemy soldiers, creating an opening.

He took out his greatsword and countered the attacks from a distance as a red Power began to focus on his weapon, and then he attacked by spinning around.

For a moment, a tornado of pure red Power was created, killing several enemies around. But even so, it seemed like the enemies were endless.

Suddenly, Victor felt a sense of danger, and he dodged an attack that seemed to have come from the space around him.

"Oh?" He moved several meters away as he looked at the group that had arrived. Their armor was clearly different, and they were much larger than all of their allies.

Not only that, he also noticed that all of their equipment seemed more technological. Thinking back to the conversation he had earlier, Victor understood what this enemy was.

'Interesting... Let's clear the battlefield.' Victor moved even further away. Once he was far from the battlefield, in the next moment, his body began to change.

"Solus 969 responding to your call. What's happening, Commander?"

"Yes! We have come into contact with an enemy from the Lower Sectors who seems to have been born from the very depths of Evil. We need to eliminate them. They have already caused too much damage to the Empire's property."

The moment the Commander finished his explanation, Victor's transformation stopped. He was in his Demon King of Tyranny form, his height having grown to the height he had in his Emperor Form, and the Powers of the Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse were being used passively around him.

With his greatsword now grown to match his size, Victor made his move, a variation of the Fulger technique. 'One Punch, one million hits.'

If he had to give this technique a name, it would be. 'One Cut, one million cuts.'

"I see. The target will be taken care of in the name of the Empire."

The number 969 appeared in front of the army, and with a much stronger light covering his body than all the soldiers combined, he 'punched' Victor.

At least, to the dim eyes of the surrounding soldiers, it seemed that way, but just like Victor, he also attacked several times in the same place.

The two Powers clashed, creating a gigantic explosion that made the vacuum of space light up for several seconds.

"Oh? In that case, let's try this." Covering his sword with the Miasma of the Abyss, Victor used his Martial Art in conjunction with the Miasma and attacked.

Instead of defending like before, number 969 dodged while removing the allied troops from the way.

"Withdraw our allies. He is not someone you can handle."

"Yes!" Just as the Commander was about to retreat, he felt someone tapping his shoulder.

"Who decided that you can leave?"

"What?" The Commander looked shocked at Victor, who was behind him. The question he was having was immediately answered by the Empire's AI.

[Cloning and umbrakinesis ability detected, activating countermeasures.]

The artifacts surrounding the group glowed brightly, causing the entire place to be bathed in light.

[Countermeasures against cloning had no effect on the target, more data is needed.]

"Tsk, what an annoying artifact."

"You-... AHHHHH?" The Commander began to shout, drawing the attention of the soldiers. Even though number 969 wasn't looking at the Commander, he was observing with his senses. All his attention was on the 'original' in front of him, who was standing still and laughing as if he had found something interesting. Which, considering his perverse nature, must have been something that was happening to the Commander.

[Error, Error, Empire property being damaged, Soul being corrupted, initiating countermeasures-... Countermeasures failed, initiating other countermeasures... All countermeasures failed. Risk of Empire information leaking. Deleting the 'Commander' program-...]

"Irritating little thing, you don't need to interfere in anything." Victor grabbed the Commander's helmet and pulled it, breaking it completely, and using his Soul Powers, he stopped the countermeasures from being activated. After all, he needed that sweet information, then he spoke:

"You idolize the Light so much, but you forget that without Darkness, the Light cannot shine brighter. Darkness must exist so that the Light does not lose its brightness."

"Balance is necessary. Haven't you heard that?" Victor, who was standing holding the greatsword, spoke while smiling in disdain.

Using the Miasma of the Abyss, the Darkness of Erebus, and the Powers of Soul Manipulation, Victor 'painted' the Commander's light parts with its opposite attribute, corrupting him completely.

Number 969's eyes widened to the point where it could even be seen through his helmet, and he also realized what was happening. "How… How can you do this? Only the Emperor can have this kind of Power."

"How arrogant. Do you think your Emperor is the center of everything?" Disdain was seen on Victor's face. "What he can do, many Beings can do as well. What he can't do, many other Beings can do as well. You are just puppets created by him who know nothing."

When the Darkness dissolved, the man who was once the Representative of Light was now the Representative of Darkness.

"Master." The Commander knelt before Victor's clone.

"See? Puppets. Even corrupted ones, you should have a conscience, something that the Commander and these soldiers don't have. Although, I think you're different, right?" Victor's smile grew, and he began walking to the right side as he spun the greatsword around and grabbed several strands of his hair.

"Let's make this interesting." Victor blew on his hair, and then 10 new Victors appeared all over the battlefield holding a greatsword.

One of these Victors wasted no time and quickly flew towards the star of this solar system, and although number 969 noticed this, he couldn't interfere, and the situation became even more complicated for them.

...

"Victor, did you really nerf your clone?" Leona asked in disbelief.

"Yes."

"...Really?" She asked again.

"Yes."

"So why are they getting beaten up so badly? Weren't they 'Superior Beings'?" She spoke in disdain.

"Don't lose sight of reality, Leona." Scathach scolded her.

Leona looked at the woman.

"It's not that they're weak. It's just that Victor, even when nerfed, is too strong."

"He's the representative of all Negativity, meaning all Negative Divinities are his to access, not to mention that he's a Grandmaster, and his Powers over Soul Manipulation are very problematic."

"Even if this clone doesn't have most of his powerful weapons, like Roxanne, Amara, and your Eldritch side, he's still very strong." Scathach finished.

"Not to mention that a conflict isn't decided by who has the biggest fist in this specific case. After all, this clone should only have a slightly higher Power Level than these soldiers," Rose explained and continued:

"From the moment the Clone stepped onto the battlefield, he provoked changes in emotions and 'demonstrated' a show of 'invincibility', causing even more imbalances in the soldiers. He used strategies to take advantage of the fact that he was fighting alone against an army, and even after the arrival of their Elite, Victor's momentum did not diminish. He is using his entire arsenal effectively against a situation in which he is alone against many."

It goes without saying how ridiculously difficult it is to do this, but Victor did it with a smile on his face.

"No wonder the soldiers' morale is low due to all these factors." Rose finished.

"A combat monster, huh…" Leona muttered, repeating the words Scathach had said several times before. Several Wives who didn't understand why Scathach called him that began to understand now.

While receiving this attention from his Wives, Victor just continued to stare at the screen with a focused gaze. Although, an amused smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

"The other soldiers lack depth, but… that number 969 seems to be different. Let's go back and observe," Scathach spoke, and everyone agreed with her.

...

Unlike the clones created by Emperor Victor, these clones created by Clone Victor were just made of pure Energy. They had no substance. With one well-placed punch, they would disappear, but they had firepower, and even when they disappeared, they didn't go quietly.

BOOOOOOOOM!

They exploded.

The situation turned in Victor's favor again. With the support of the Commander, who had switched sides, and Victor holding the number 969, the enemy was losing and losing badly.

"Come on! Show me more! What's so special about you guys? Do you just get numbers to make yourself look great?"

"...You're the most annoying Being I've ever had the displeasure of meeting."

"That's a compliment to me, thank you."

Number 969 and Victor clashed again, each clash of theirs creating a wave of Power that destroyed everything around them, be it allies or enemies.

Despite managing to injure Victor, he was immediately healed, and even his armor was repaired.

'Tsk, this isn't going anywhere,' he thought while feeling the clone of this man approaching the base of operations in this solar system at a ridiculous speed while defending himself. Dodging a cut made with a Martial Art from a Grandmaster, a feat that was only possible because he was very connected to Light and could use its speed: 'It's quite obvious that this man is holding back. He wants information, as much as possible.'

Such speculation was obvious, considering that even with the advantage, the man didn't finish the fight. He was playing with his food, trying to extract as much information as possible.

The fact that proved this thought was that the enemy was a Grandmaster, and even so, he only used these Martial Arts to throw Energy beams that, although powerful, were easy to predict and dodge.

In front of a true Grandmaster, each of their attacks would be a mortal danger to life. And any mistake made in front of a Grandmaster, you die.

He knew this very well, considering he saw how one of his brothers fought up close.

Perhaps these speculations he was making were incorrect, but number 969 doubted it.

While the battle continued, the Victor clone, who went to the base of operations on the solar system's star, invaded the place, killing everyone. Here, he had no mercy and used the maximum of his Powers, and in less than 1 second, the whole place was dead.

He arrived, killed everyone, and now he was in front of a sphere of pure Light Energy.

Seeing this sight, Victor Emperor opened his eyes slightly in shock.

"This Energy... Even if I don't feel it, I can tell this is the same as mine, only in a much purer state..." Amara whispered in admiration.

"You are right, Amara. This Light is pure Positive Energy." Victor said.

"They really are spreading 'Light' throughout the Universe, huh," Anna murmured. "I'm starting to understand their way of operating."

"Visit a solar system, and place this battery there, and as Divinity works, the Emperor will be keeping an eye on everything that happens in this solar system... It's something very similar to what we intend to do, only much more inefficient because, with this battery, only the Emperor will have eyes while his own Empire will be blind."

"That's not necessarily true," Violet explained as she narrowed her eyes. "Do you remember how those soldiers are made of pure Light? If we think of it that way, they can be considered the Emperor's will."

"How disgusting."

"What a disgusting thing." Emperor Victor and his clone spoke at the same time when they apparently discovered something, as pure disgust was seen on both of their faces.

"What happened, Darling?" Violet asked.

"This thing steals a Being's entire free will. I'm talking about the free will to even think and act." He spoke in disgust as if he had seen the most disgusting thing in the world.

Yes, Victor was a control freak, but not even he would put all his people under mind control like puppets.

"The way it's designed slowly corrupts Beings so that their entire existence is a tool of the 'Light'. You can't even do basic necessities if the 'light' doesn't allow it." The more he spoke, the more disgusted he became. "Compared to this supposed Emperor of Light, the Heavenly Father is a literal Angel."

At least the Angels he created had free will to do whatever they wanted so long as they didn't fall and become Fallen Angels.

The Victor clone looked at the Artifact with disgust and then went to the strange technologies. Even if he didn't understand the strange symbols and alien language, he didn't need to understand since his Divinity did it for him. In the same way that Gods of various strange languages could understand each other because they were Gods, the same applied when someone had a Goddess of Technology by their side.

Therefore, he simply absorbed all the knowledge in a small sphere, and in less than 3 seconds, all the information of this solar system was absorbed. He took the sphere that was now a bright Violet and focused his eyes on it. In the next moment, space was distorted, and the sphere was sent to Emperor Victor, whose body was still looking at the hole in the sky.

Emperor Victor took the sphere and analyzed it for any kind of influence.

Within the joint communication, Victor looked at his Wife.

"Velnorah."

"Yes." For a moment, Velnorah remained focused, and then she appeared next to Victor, bending Reality to go directly to him.

"Here, I have already checked all possible countermeasures, but still be cautious and do not put this information into our network."

"I will completely isolate it in a separate Dimension."

They may both be paranoid, but too much caution is never unnecessary.

Victor nodded and looked back at the portal.

The discussion between the Wives resumed in the connection.

"With all the information we have obtained so far, can we assume that the Emperor already knows of Victor's actions? And isn't he sending more reinforcements for the same reason as Victor?" Violet asked.

"That is quite likely. He is learning, and I foresee that action will be taken soon." Scathach nodded.

While the Wives were discussing amongst themselves, Victor's clone turned his gaze to the Artifact, took his sword, and attacked with all his Power.

For a moment, nothing happened until a clean cut was seen on the Artifact, and immediately, the Artifact stopped working.

For a moment, silence fell throughout the solar system, and the next moment, the entire base began to make noise.

"Error, Error, power source deactivated, backup power protocols... Unavailable. Central power source completely destroyed... All activated systems in the solar system are deactivated. Countermeasure deactivated. Destabilization of the star impossible to proceed... Attack on the main Empire property detected, countermeasures activated."

Victor's clone ignored the annoying noise and simply returned to Victor, who was fighting against number 969.

Suddenly, number 969 moved away from Victor and looked at the soldiers whose light visibly became much dimmer and the Empire Artifact that had completely stopped. His senses expanded widely, and he saw that all the Empire properties had lost power.

"You will regret this, God of War."

"I doubt it." Victor laughed, and then all his scattered clones returned to his body. Victor cracked his neck a little and said: "Thank you for the dance. It was fun, and you entertained me a lot. Unfortunately, I am a child raised by authoritarian parents, and they don't allow me to play anymore, so."

Victor's face became completely serious. "The game is over."

A crimson sea exploded from Victor's body, encompassing the entire space around him, forming something that looked like a large sphere that was larger than some of the asteroids.

Inside the sphere, blood spikes began to sprout everywhere and pierce all the enemies, and each one that died would become part of Victor.

Screams of terror and death were heard, and soon, nothing was heard anymore.

'Ahh… This is a true Grandmaster.' The moment the man decided that the fight was over, the fight was over. This time, not even he could see anything.

Hovering in space with only his torso and head visible, the man… Wrong, the Monster grabbed him by the neck.

"Any last words?"

"You will regret killing me, Monster. I will die, but my brothers will avenge me."

"Then you will die braver than the others. Don't worry. Soon, your brothers will join you, as well."

Number 969 just smiled in tranquility even as his body dissolved and joined Victor's Legion.

Reading through Number 969's memories, Victor spoke: "… Well, shit, now I understand why he was smiling even at the end." He looked in a direction.

Specifically, outside the solar system, in a place very far away, a gigantic construction that was much larger than an entire solar system was standing still.

That structure that looked more like a massive fortress turned several massive cannons in Victor's direction, and then… The world shone.

"The Power to destroy an entire solar system… That's interesting, HAHAHAHAHA~. That's what I call firepower!" Victor laughed maniacally as his entire body evaporated along with the entire solar system.

Defend against that? It's impossible. Only his Original self could achieve such a feat, and in any case, he achieved his goal.
