âYou f*cking, son of a ***** System! What the hell is happening? Didnât tell me that you will protect Nova for me?â Tom cursed loudly as he left Isabella's apartment and began to walk aimlessly.
; ;
CAUTION
WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE WITH THE SYSTEM!
THIS WHIMSICAL SYSTEM COMES FROM A REPUTABLE WHIMSICAL FAMILY THAT DOES NOT CONDONE THE USE OF SUCH VULGAR WORDS!!!
A quick electric shock ran through Tom, making him regain his senses.
He wanted to start yelling again, but he quickly noticed the other System message.
; ;
NOVA WAS WELL PROTECTED. THE SYSTEM DID DISABLE VICTOR VON WEISSâS POWER AS A MAN, BUT FATE INTERVENED.
âWhat do you mean?â Tom asked as he frowned.
; ;
DUE TO NOVAâS DARK FATE, SHE FELL UNDER A LOVE CURSE. SHE DOESN'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE.
âDamn that Victor! I SWEAR I WILL FUCK HIMâŠ.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAâ
An electric shock to the balls sent him howling to the ground
; ;
WATCH IT WITH THE LANGUAGE!!!
IT WAS NOT VICTORâS FAULT! IT WAS YOURS.
âWhy?â Tom yelled like a madman, startling a few pedestrians who were passing by his side.
âMommy, why is that guy clutching his crotch? Does he want to Pee?â a little girl asked.
âDonât look at him!â her mother scolded as she dragged her away.
Tom totally ignored them as his bloodshot eye glared at the emptiness in front of him where the system was showing his massage.
; ;
BY STOPPING VICTOR FROM GETTING TO NOVA, A DEMON HAS SET HIS EYES ON HER! SHE IS THAT PRETTY AFTER ALL!
THE WHIMSICAL SYSTEM COULD NOT INTERFERE WITH THE CAUSALITY OF THE WORLD.
THAT GUY IS VERY TROUBLESOME!!
âWhat! WHO?â Tom asked in shockâŠ
; ;

âI choose the first!â Tom said without even thinking.
; ;

Tom waited.

âDear Monica!â Victor said as he looked at the nervous girl who was waiting patiently behind him as he finished his very constructive conversation with Tom.
âYes?â she asked nervously while looking around wondering why he brought her here to this dungeon. Why was there a dungeon in his basement to begin with? She didnât dare to ask.
âHave you adjusted to living here yet?â he asked. Such a question would have been completely normal if they were not surrounded by cages.
âUmâŠâ she nodded nervously as she looked down. She was trying hard not to look at Victor. Whenever she sees his handsome face, strange things start happening in her body.
âGood!â he said as he checked the sturdiness of the iron bars and turned to look at her. âDid you get a strange package or letter recently?â he asked directly.
âAhâŠâ she frowned, âI got a letter from one of my friends three days agoâŠâ she said.
âThat Connor?â Victor asked, remembering that he told Alpha to keep an eye on that demonized guy, but she lost track of him as he strangely disappeared.
âYes! He invited me to go on a cruise tripâŠ. Donât get me wrong, I will not go! I wanted to tell him that though, but he was not answering his phone and the message didnât have a return address. Just a ticket!â
âCan I see the ticket and the message?â
âItâs in the trashâŠ.â she said nervously, earning herself a smile and pinch on the cheekâŠ. His touch was like electricity, it made her start to breathe faster. Why was her body reacting like this?
âGood girl!â he said with a smile⊠The meaning of throwing the ticket was that she didnât want anything with Connor, she had decided to devote herself to Victor.
âAnâŠ.nâŠ.â she was about to moan but she held it in as she squeezed her legs together.
âIn two weeks, I will be holding a weddingâŠâ Victor, who was amazed by her looks, suddenly said,
âUmâŠâ she nodded, somewhat annoyed. Why was he telling her this now?
âPrepare yourselfâŠ. I plan to announce to the world that I will be accepting you as a concubine at that timeâŠ.â he explained.
âAhhhh⊠What?â her heart began to bounce as she looked at himâŠ. âArenât you marrying Miss Lin and that other girl?â she asked as she fought the desire to jump on him.
âI am! I will also surprise the world by accepting a few concubines⊠You are among themâŠâ
âAhâŠ.â Monica frozeâŠâ A coâŠâŠ. ConcubineâŠ.. IâŠ. what?â she gasped. This was too sudden.
She felt that she should be angryâŠ. He was talking about some really absurd things after all. He was even proposing to a girl while telling her that he will marry her with others!
âBreak up with him! Escape!â that was what her rational mind was telling her, but the feeling in her stomach was something else entirely⊠She was excited⊠no beyond excited, she was in heat! She was happy!
âAhhhâŠ..â she didnât know how to respond.
âAre you against this?â he asked.
She didnât know how to answer.
âIf you have some friends, make sure to invite them⊠Donât worry about what other people would think. When they see how happy you are, those idiots will die of jealousy!â he spoke casually as her approval was granted, slowly brainwashing her.
She didnât respond, and he stopped talking, slowly brushing the hair that was now covering her deeply blushing face.
âI need some time to thinkâŠ.â she said after five minutes of awkward silence. This was too sudden. She didnât even know what to think!
âTalk all the time you need!â he said as he walked to the door, âBut if you take too long, the other girls wouldnât even leave scabs for youâŠ.â he said with an evil smile as he walked out.
âŠ
âWill I be one of those surprise brides too?â Margret asked in a low voice just as Victor walked out of the basement. She was eavesdropping from the outside.
âYes⊠Donât tell Lily yetâŠâ
âI donât have a death wishâŠâ she said as she looked away, hiding her blush while cursing in her heart. This Victor was a big bastard. Couldn't he be more romantic? Did he have to confess like this in the basement? WaitâŠ
âWho else would you marry too?â she asked.
âI am not sure yet⊠I need to ask the girls for their approval after all!â
âYou didnât ask me!â she protested.
âThere is no need, you are already mineâŠ. And I already got your answer that day in the hotel.â
â..... â she didnât answer. He was right⊠She wanted him to go on his knees for once though⊠bastard.
Margret followed as Victor casually walked toward the kitchen where Hilda was washing the dishes with Mana.
Mina who couldnât help was sitting to the side reading something. âYOUNG MASTER!â she said and quickly stood up when she spotted Victor and Margret.
âSit downâŠâ Victor said then turned to Hilda, âHilda⊠Do you have Monicaâs letter?â
âYes, young master⊠I planned to give it to you in the evening!â Hilda said as she quickly wiped her wet hands with her apron then ran to a side room before returning with a ripped envelope. As the house manager, this was her task to take care of such things. She had been keeping an eye on Monica ever since she entered this house.
Victor casually opened the letter, where only a few casual lines were written, inviting Monica to attend a birthday party. There was a ticket attached to a luxurious cruise trip.
âSend a photo of the ticket to Kai and let him find everything about itâŠâ
âAlready did, he didnât respond yetâŠâ
âGood⊠Give the letter to Yin, let her remember the smell,â Victor said as he gave the massage back to Hilda, it had nothing interesting.
âI understand⊠anything else?â
âNothing reallyâŠ.â he said as he turned around heading to the door. âOh, and pick two good dresses for the twinsâŠâ
âWe already chose the maids' dressesâŠ.â
âNot That! They will not attend the wedding as maids, but as brides.â
BANGâŠ. A dish shattered on the floor.
âWHAT!â both of the twins gasped, ignoring the broken dish.
âWhat what? I will be doing a grand wedding, I need all the pretty brides I can get!â he said casually, too casually. âDonât you want to marry me?â Victor turned and asked with a frown.
The girls didnât know how to answer such a question. Of course, they wanted to marry him! They have already confessed that they were his⊠But this was too sudden!
It was only yesterday when they were being a little salty about the upcoming wedding, cursing at the brides⊠Now there were the brides!
âThe girls will be ready!â Hilda, who was trying hard to hide her smile, said as she noticed the twins' red tomato faces⊠They were in shock.
âGood⊠If they have any relatives make sure to invite them too!â he said as he walked out, not waiting for an answer.
"You call that a confession?" Margret smiled fiendishly as soon as they left the kitchen.
"No, that was a statement!" he replied, "The girls are already mine, to begin with! I have nothing to confess!"
âHe he he âŠ.â she shook her head as she snickered.
âWhat?â he asked.
âI just realized something about youâŠ.â she said in an amused voice.
âWhat?â
âYou are a coward!â she said while nodding to herself, earning a glare from Victor. âDonât get me wrong, I mean in love affairs! You could have easily told the girls at the dining table, but you chose to do it like this⊠â she quickly defended herself.
â...â He didnât answer, she was partially right. Although he lived a long life, he didnât really like to completely expose his feelings. This was a habit from the past.
In his previous life, after his wife died, he had to live in fear of that guy finding him again. And he also hid his past from Yulian. So he hid his feelings deeply to move on. All the girls he knew after that were prostitutes and slaves.
Margret sighed when she noticed that Victor stopped talking. She really wanted to know what happened to him in his previous life.
âDo I need to invite my relatives too?â she suddenly changes the subject to break the awkward silence.
âYes⊠Invite Peter and TomâŠ. And donât forget about your aunt and the two piglets you call cousins!â
âYou are trying to create a mess at the wedding?â
âYes⊠The bigger the chaos, the easier it is to hide thingsâŠ.â he said calmly. His plan had many variables, and the larger the cast, the more pieces he might be able to move.
âWill you tell me what your full plan is?â she asked.
âLaterâŠ. â he said mysteriously, revealing nothing.
She just sighed and silently followed him into the garage, where he took the keys to one of the new cars, a black Smoking Penguin that Margret bought just to fill the garage. This car was not very luxurious but had a big trunk that gave it a gangster car air.
âSo, you at the wedding⊠How many more brides do you plan to add?â Margret suddenly asked after noticing something out of the window.
âI told you, we will seeâŠ. I have yet to ask Aria and Mira!â
âWill you also propose to Beta and the others,â
âNo⊠I really like them and want to marry them too, but I donât want the world to know about them yetâŠâ he sighed. He wanted them to act as his hidden hands.
âDidnât you already show the world that you are with Theta at the auction?â
âShe is a minor! Do you want me to go to jail for that kind of crime!â he exclaimed as he opened the car door.
âLike that would ever happenâŠ. Where are you going now?â she asked as watched him climb into the driver seat, then followed to sit beside him.
âTo take care of thingsâŠ. Too many things,â he said as he turned the car on. âNow, tell me, what exactly happened in the vault.
âŠ
Alex, who had just finished her spar with Beta, sighed as she watched Victor drive away with Margret. Thankfully, she was not punished after returning to the mansion, but somehow she was feeling a little depressed. Victor had been totally ignoring her! Couldnât he at least spank her a little?
No⊠What was she thinkingâŠ
âDamn it!â a cursing Voice alerted Alex and Beta. It was Theta who was cleaning the shrubberies beside the garage, and happened to hear Victorâs statementâŠ
âAre you ok?â Beta asked.
âI am fine!!â Theta yelled as she walked away⊠She was really annoyed. Why couldnât she be a few years older?
âŠ
In a dark cell, Yulian cursed as he crushed his cellmateâs balls with the plastic slipper in his foot.
âI told you that I only wanted to finish my sentence!! Did you really have to go and try to kill me?â Yulian yelled.
âPlease spare meâŠ.. AHHHâ the man whose hands and legs were already twisted out of shape screamed in pain.
âShut up! Who told you to stab me?â Yulian asked.
âIt was the boss, big John from the yard! He said that you have bad paperworkâŠ. AHHHHHHHHHHHHâ
âDid he tell you why I am here?â
âYesâŠ. There are rumors that you were planning to assault some female students⊠AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..â the man fainted in pain as the guards hurried into the cell.
âYulian! Do you want your sentence to be extended!â the guard asked as he checked the injured inmate⊠He saw everything through the cameras and hurried here.
âDonât worry⊠he will live. He tried to kill me! You can find the dagger he used, in his buttâ Yulian said as he sat on his bed. âHe was all friendly until yesterday. I donât know what went into his head!â
Thankfully, due to Yulianâs strong body, he successfully managed to protect his chastity until now. His familyâs test was really brutal, couldnât they find him some competent lawyer at least?
âThis one went crazy too?â The guard sighed as he flipped the collapsed man and then checked the bloody dagger in his ass with worried eyes.
He quickly called another inmate to help deliver the man to the infirmary.
âWere there similar accidents?â Yulian asked. He was staying in his cell lately, because of his really bad reputation of being a pedophile⊠It was all because he refused to provide âservicesâ to a certain man who fancied him when he entered here and took a shower. Under all of the dirt, Yulian was really pretty after all.
That man, after gaining a brand new broken nose, used the fact that Yulian sneaked into the academy as leverage to spread rumors about him.
âYou donât know⊠It is like a curse of bad luck had been cast on this place. The inmates are killing each other like maniacs! 13 Dies just last week!â the guard sighed.
âOhâŠâ
âYou only have 10 days left right?â the guard asked as he closed the cell door and locked it.
âYeah⊠I just want to pass it peacefullyâŠâ Yulian replied as he laid back down. He took a small notebook list from his pocket and added the name Big John to the long list on it. Those were the names of the people he planned to take revenge on when he regained his status.
