Chapter 1057: An Action Outside the Plans, But Not That Outside the Plans.

While Victor was overseeing the progress of his Daughters and Wives in the Dream he had created with his Powers, he received a message from his Heralds.

This message caused Victor to raise an eyebrow in slight surprise. These days, few things could surprise the Dragon Emperor, and this message was definitely something he hadn't expected.

'Considering how sensible s.h.i.+va is, I should have expected this action from him.' Victor realized he needed to drop the prejudice that all G.o.ds were foolish.

Most were definitely foolish G.o.ds, full of arrogance, who couldn't see beyond their limited vision.

But a select few were not like that: Buddha, s.h.i.+va, Amaterasu, and even Diablo himself, who wasn't a G.o.d but rather a Primordial Demon, were not foolish Beings.

Victor understood this, he comprehended this, he accepted this But often, he had been thinking they were all stupid. More precisely, he had been regarding them all as if they were brainless monkeys, with some other monkeys who were smarter than them. After all, some monkeys could destroy planets.

Consider Big Guy as a perfect example: the Guardian of his Wife, and subsequently his own Guardian, was a very perceptive Being. After all, he had to be in order to protect Roxanne while she was just a sprout.

'Thinking about it, my Daughters haven't developed their own Guardians... Maybe they don't need them because of me?' Despite being World Trees, his Daughters with Roxanne and Amhara were too abnormal to be typical World Trees; hence, this rule might or might not apply to them.

It was hard to know, considering there has never been a Being that has successfully impregnated a World Tree. Perhaps some from the Upper Sectors had attempted the act but ultimately failed.

Victor could have children with any Being precisely because he was a G.o.d of Beginnings, and he was sure that the number of G.o.ds with that t.i.tle could be counted on one hand throughout the history of the Universe. After all, the Divinities at the top of the Power Hierarchy were very difficult to obtain and even more challenging to train to enhance.

"I presume you already know what's happening," Anna spoke with a very serious expression.

The fact that Victor possessed the Divinity of Beginnings and Negativity and still managed to train both at the same time was insane.

Setting aside these thoughts, Victor looked for Kali in his world and saw that she was not present. Checking the records of his world, he saw that she had left a few hours ago.

Just a few seconds after he received this message from his Heralds, his Wife contacted him.

"I presume you already know what's happening," Anna spoke with a very serious expression.

"Yes, indeed," Victor nodded, showing a curious face.

"What's the likelihood Kali has said something?" Anna wasted no time and went straight to the point.

"Nonexistent," Victor declared. "You don't easily circ.u.mvent a Contract made with the Dragon Emperor." With Victor's experience and the memories he had of ancient and elusive Beings like Diablo, Lucifer, and the Elder G.o.ds, he knew very well how to craft a severely restrictive Contract.

Even the ancient Witch Albedo declared that not even she could escape a Contract made by Victor. Victor did not joke about the safety of his Family, so the probability of Kali having said something to s.h.i.+va was very low, if not nonexistent.

"Don't be so sure of everything. After all, there are things out there that we don't know about," Anna warned him.

Victor's thought process was interrupted for a few milliseconds, and that was enough for him to evaluate that his Wife was right. Even though he could feel that the contract with Kali was still valid and that she hadn't said anything, he shouldn't a.s.sume that was what happened.

Being cautious and paranoid was essential, especially when dealing with Beings who are Leaders of a Pantheon that control other G.o.ds.

Memories of Niklaus being dragged by some G.o.d from another Sector flashed through his mind.

'Something I have to resolve in the future.' Although Niklaus's Daughter was under his protection, the man himself was not. The previous Vlad's brother was determined in his desire for revenge, and he would achieve it no matter what.

The problem was that if he succeeded, Ophis would be sad, and Victor did not want his Daughter to be saddened by this. Despite it being a personal issue for Vlad, Victor would still interfere.

'Maybe I'll kidnap both of them and make them fight.' Victor thought randomly. He still didn't know exactly what he would do... But he had MANY ideas, most of which were not good for either Vlad or Niklaus.

"That's true," Victor nodded.

"...What should we do?" Anna asked. Victor was the Emperor, and it was up to him to make a decision... A decision that would impact the lives of millions of Beings.

Instead of answering the question, Victor smiled slightly, and with a gesture of his hand, a copy of him appeared in front of him. His viewpoint was suddenly split in two.

A discrepancy was felt for a few seconds, as he was not used to sharing his viewpoint, but he quickly got used to it. This was one of the privileges of having such an efficient mind... He just had to deal with the feeling of discrepancy from looking at himself, something he quickly overcame. After all, he had experiences with Alter Victor, which was the representation of his Powers in the past.

The moment after he split into a clone, he heard.

"Is that a clone?"

"Not exactly." Both spoke at the same time.

"This is indeed a clone, but at the same time, it is me." As an extremely possessive man, he did not trust a clone that had self-awareness, even if that clone was himself, so he simply divided his mind and perception.

"The word clone is incorrect... He is a part of you, a part of your consciousness," Anna said.

"Correct."

Anna sighed slightly when she saw her Husband casually split himself like an amoeba or something.

As an extremely unique existence, it was nearly impossible to divide and resemble the 'original' body, so this other Victor had only 1/4 of the original's Power, and he only had a fragment of the Eldritch Power within him.

One could say that Victor was the Prime, and this Being was a nerfed version of him without several characteristics. He did not have Roxanne, Amara, or even the connection with his Wives.

Roxanne and Amara could check on him and send some Energy his way since it was still Victor, but they could not do it as efficiently as they could with the Prime Victor, with whom they were fully connected.

Even though Victor used the word split, the correct term would be: he tore a piece of himself and created another self that has his consciousness to inhabit.

This idea came to him from the conversation he had with the Heavenly Father... In order not to become an existence so... detached from his own Creations, he would occasionally divide himself into a weaker version to blend in with his Creations.

When the clones from the Clone Project were ready to serve, he would create a younger version of himself to serve along with the clones as well.

In this way, he himself would be overseeing his entire Empire, a form of omniscience that was not absolute but was definitely useful, after all, along with his Shadows, his Heralds, his Faithful, the vigilance of Akasha, and his clones sharing their perspectives with him, he would practically know everything within his territory.

Victor Prime began to grow until he became a 5-meter-tall man, as horns grew on his head, his short black hair grew longer, and his attributes s.h.i.+fted to the Miasma of the Dark h.e.l.l. A dark violet liquid began to cover Victor's body.

This liquid had a name, Junketsu; the weapon of the Progenitor covered its Master's body with a black armor tinged with violet. When Victor's heart pulsed again, the entire armor lit up with violet flames, and the next moment, Victor was completely dressed in his Emperor appearance.

Looking at himself from the perspective of his other self, he smiled in satisfaction, enjoying the impression it gave. For his Family to differentiate his clone from himself, he changed the appearance of his other self. As he was just a temporary creation to keep an eye on the Dream World, Victor changed his hair to gold like his Wife Sasha's and changed his eyes to the blue ones he had when he was Human. He also removed his Supernatural appearance.

Now, instead of looking like a supernaturally attractive man, he looked like a mortally attractive man. The key word here was 'mortal'. By Human standards, he would be a 10/10, but by the standards of the Supernatural World, he would be at around a 4 or 5.

Victor felt slightly uncomfortable seeing this strange version of himself, but since that was the purpose of it all, he tried not to think too much about it. After all, he would have to get used to being even more different if he wanted to use this method to blend in with his Creations in the future.

'Maybe, I'll make a bald man next time... Or a very masculine man who is the stereotype of those medieval fantasy movies like Conan or something like that.' The possibilities were endless. He could also use this method to spy on other civilizations, since as a shapes.h.i.+fter and a Being who could edit Souls, he could become whatever he wanted 'externally' so that not even the most observant G.o.ds would notice anything amiss.

The same might not be said of the Primordial G.o.ds, but that was another can of worms unrelated to the matter at hand.

"What will we say to s.h.i.+va?" Anna asked after observing her Husband's appearance for a whole minute. After all, it was the first time she had seen this form.

"Nothing." Victor's voice became deeper in this form and much heavier. "He will know my answer even if I say nothing."

Anna's eyes sparkled in confusion for a moment, but after 5 seconds of thinking about it, she understood what Victor meant.

"Will you go alone?"

Victor displayed a slight smile that could be considered mischievous. "My dear Wife I am never alone."

Hundreds of eyes appeared across the Emperor's body and stared directly at Anna with their blood-red eyes.

A macabre sight that would scare anyone to death, but not Anna.

"Indeed Sometimes, I forget that."

A shadow of an animal emerged from the ground, a very familiar animal. "Zack."

The previously harmless and somewhat fat cat, now a threat that could destroy the world, looked at Victor.

"Meow?"

"You know what to do."

A mischievous smile appeared on the cat's face, and soon he disappeared.

Anna rolled her eyes. "Why does he keep meowing? He's no longer a cat."

"He can be whatever he wants, a cat, a tiger, a lion" Remembering the real form of his cat, he continued: "A beast that can destroy the world."

"It all depends on Zack's will."

"He can be a good lover too" Anna narrowed her eyes: "How many Wives does he have again?"

"...We don't talk about that."

Anna snorted. "This cat is so similar to you that it's not even funny. After his change, who would have thought he would get along with the felines that live on this planet?"

In response to these words, Victor just showed a proud smile. Due to the influence of his childhood friend, practically all the felines on the planet were becoming deadly creatures Creatures that the biggest of them could destroy planets.

"Coincidentally, the last time I checked, he stopped picking up chicks around with the same number of Wives that you have Do you know anything about that?"

"He's a bro." That was the only explanation Victor gave.

As a form of respect, Zack would never have more 'chicks' than his friend, so he didn't go looking for another lover.

Victor personally thought that Zack just didn't want to deal with all the bulls.h.i.+t that came with being in a relations.h.i.+p. Even though things in the animal world were more straightforward, they were still problematic.

Victor understood this. Even though he found these problematic situations amusing, he recognized that was the abnormal one here.
