Chapter 1065: Kaguya Morning
That morning, Kaguya woke up under a vibrant blue sky, promising yet another beautiful day. The sun, already high in the sky, poured its generous light over hills and valleys, painting everything with a golden glow that made the leaves of the trees shine with an almost surreal green. A gentle breeze blew, carrying with it the scent of wildflowers and the promise of a day that was not only beautiful but refreshing.
A scene straight out of a fantasy book. Nature was beautiful and perfect, and there was no pollution or crime. In the Emperor’s Domains, peace reigned supreme… But of course, to ensure this peace continued, her work was important.
‘Huff, yesterday was an exhausting day.’ Kaguya sighed as she lightly touched her belly. No matter how many times she did this with her Husband, it was always an exhausting and pleasurable battle. She then got up and began her daily activities, stepping out of the bed she shared with her Sisters and Husband and headed towards the kitchen, darkness enveloping her body, dressing her in her maid’s attire.
After all, she could not enter the area where her Daughters and female staff were completely undressed.
With a brief glance using her Divine Sight, she saw that most of the Family members were still asleep, so she decided to have breakfast, take a bath, and get back to work as quickly as possible.
After all, if Victor wasn’t in bed, it meant he was working. As a perfect maid, it would be shameful not to work while her Master was.
Starting with breakfast, she headed towards the kitchen… and smiled slightly when she saw several covered dishes. She approached the table and saw a note that read:
“I prepared breakfast for everyone, enjoy <3” This handwriting, this ridiculous way of expressing humor, it was obvious that Victor had written it.
‘He didn’t need to do that.’ She chuckled in amusement. Even though there were several competent maids in the estate, Victor occasionally did these things.
‘Well, that’s his charm.’ She didn’t complain much, after all, she liked that side of him too.
Removing the lid that covered the dishes, she saw that breakfast was a simple plate with eggs, toast, bacon, and milk. Sitting at the table and showing her appreciation for the food, she began to eat while slowly savoring Victor’s cooking.
‘Delicious!… As always, I wonder how he makes these recipes.’ Believe it or not, the best cook was not a Goddess of The Kitchen or even Victor’s Wives, but Victor himself.
“Win a woman’s heart through her stomach, he said.” Kaguya chuckled.
Since they had become Blood Dragons, the group’s diet consisted more of real food than blood. Only in necessary and specific cases did they use blood as food. After all, Victor’s current blood should not be taken lightly since it was a general consensus among the Wives that his blood was basically an extremely potent drug now.
A single sip of his blood and the person who drank it would become instantly addicted, and the weaker ones would simply explode, losing their lives in the process because Victor’s blood had its own consciousness that followed his will.
To avoid creating highly addicted children, such precautions were necessary. It took a total of 5 minutes for Kaguya to eat and savor the food, and after finishing, she took the plate to the sink, placing it in a container that would wash itself.
Their entire home was practically a millennium ahead in terms of technology, and most of the ‘boring’ work could be done automatically, but ‘cleaning’ was still done by the maids. After all, there were places that only a sentient Being could clean and care for.
Usually, these places were the rooms where Victor did not allow any kind of technology. The maids were also important for cleaning up the children’s messes at times. Lately, the process had been even faster since the maids could use a Rune device that blended with Witch Technology, cleaning everything with just a click.
Overall, thanks to these conveniences, there weren’t many maids in the mansion. A group of 10 women from various Races was enough to clean the entire place. Most of the time, the maids were led by Hilda and Yuki.
When Maria, Bruna, Eve, Roberta, and Kaguya weren’t busy, the work would go to some of them. They still quite enjoyed it. Even though they could clean the entire mansion with a snap of their fingers, they didn’t do it, as having tasks to do was very important for mental health.
Being lazy all day was very bad for the mind, and a balance was necessary… as all things should be.
Kaguya internally chuckled. ‘I can’t believe I made that reference.’
Feeling someone approaching, she turned to the side and saw Siena coming over lazily.
“… Ugh, good morning… My body hurts… Why does it hurt? Aren’t I a damn Dragon? Shouldn’t I be used to this by now? Ugh…”
“Siena, clothes.” Kaguya reminded her. Walking around without clothes with fluids leaking from inappropriate places is not suitable for a Wifely image!
“Whatever, the kids aren’t here yet.” Siena huffed as she sat down in the comfortable chair. When she looked at the plates of food, her tired eyes took on a gentle and loving manner.
Kaguya narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard what Siena said.
“Humph, he destroys me, so the next day, he makes delicious food… Stupid Husband.”
Kaguya pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed. Sometimes it was troublesome to deal with her Sisters. With a simple snap of her fingers, the suspicious liquid disappeared, and Siena was dressed in comfortable clothes that hid her nudity.
“I told you you didn’t need to.” Siena rolled her eyes while continuing to eat and savor the food slowly. ‘Delicious!’
“Eating at the main table without appropriate attire is disrespectful. If you want to do that, do it in our personal area. Remember, respect the rules.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Kaguya’s eyes sharpened dangerously.
Realizing her joke was going too far, Siena slowly said, “Don’t be too strict, Kaguya. If I had sensed anyone nearby or our Daughters, I wouldn’t have come in this state.” freeweɓnvel.com
“Despite how I am when I’m lazy… I’m still a Mother, you know?”
Kaguya’s look eased, and she returned to normal. “I’m sorry for overreacting.”
“It’s okay, I was acting too lazy as well.”
And with that, the issue was resolved. As a Family, it was essential to talk if something was wrong, and everyone understood that. They had 2,000 years of living together, so they knew what they should and should not do. As ‘Mothers’, they must set an example to be followed.
And if they felt too ‘constrained’, they could ‘free’ themselves in their personal area since no children or maids were allowed in that area.
It was an exclusive place for The Emperor and his Wives.
“Anyway, I have to go to work.”
“Have a good day at work… By the way, aren’t you going to eat more?” Siena pointed to the other plate that Victor had prepared for her. After all, her Sisters usually ate a larger portion, and even Kaguya usually ate 2 portions, but as she wasn’t very hungry today, stopping after just one portion.
“… I don’t know how you can eat more than one plate,” Kaguya said while looking at Siena’s plate, which had 4 portions of food.
It might seem insignificant, but this food was not exactly ‘normal’—the nutritional and caloric value of a single portion could feed the entire population of a large country for 10 years, with each individual consuming just a small gram of food.
After all, any more than that, and they would literally explode.
As Dragon Goddesses, they didn’t necessarily need food to live, as they fed more on the Energy from the environment, which was bombarded by their extremely powerful hearts.
Eating was more of a luxury they couldn’t give up, and it could also aid in training processes, as Victor’s food had special characteristics that helped with everything from training to learning new things. Thus, each portion was specifically prepared for Dragons to eat.
So, Siena, who was consuming four portions of food for breakfast, was essentially eating the food supply of a large country that would last 40 years, and this was just for breakfast, while snacks and dinner were not even counted.
“I need the Energy to face Victor,” Siena said seriously.
“… You’re only not fat because your Dragon philosophy doesn’t allow it,” Kaguya shook her head.
Siena snorted. “Even if I got fat, Victor would love me just the same.”
“Yes, indeed… He would also force you to run and train like crazy because it’s not healthy to be overweight.”
Siena shuddered slightly when she realized Kaguya was right. Victor loved them deeply, but he tended to be quite paranoid. If he saw that they were ‘self-destructing’ due to laziness, he would do everything to change that, usually involving an even more hardcore style of her Mother’s training.
“Luckily, I’m a Dragon and a shapeshifter, so that will never happen to me,” Siena nodded, satisfied. Even when she was a Noble Vampire before, she never got out of shape, thanks to the physiology of Noble Vampires.
If you saw a fat Vampire, it meant that the Vampire was a Vampire Slave. After all, no Noble Vampire got fat due to their physiology.
“Try not to eat our other Sisters’ portions,” Kaguya said.
“Even I can’t eat more than 4 portions. I’m not my Mother.”
Scathach could need to eat 30 portions of food, and because of this, her plate was even more ‘powerful’ than the normal plates.
The same applied to Rose and Eleanor. Perhaps because they exercised more, they ate more… Surprisingly, those who ate the most in the group weren’t the ones who were more active in exercising, but those who used their brains more. Velnorah, Aline, and Ruby ate the equivalent of 80 portions per meal.
‘Well, they eat while thinking about other things related to their experiments. That must be why they don’t realize how much they’ve eaten.’ Kaguya looked cautiously at Velnorah and Aline’s portions. There was even a small warning flag, left by Victor, to signal the more sleepy members.
If any of them ate a bit of those two women’s food, they would literally become too ‘full’ to do anything all day.
Kaguya shook her head and decided to focus back on her work. Before leaving, she looked towards her Daughters and checked the state of the ‘war’.
‘Umu, they are doing a good job. I saw that Darling did something to maintain a sense that his presence was always close to the group. That way, they won’t miss him too much.’ A clever way of doing things, as expected of her Husband.
“I’m going now. Let me know if anything happens.”
“Aye, aye,” Siena responded with a perfect imitation of a certain flying blue cat.
Kaguya rolled her eyes at that reference and disappeared into the shadows, using her own means of teleportation. In the blink of an eye, she was at her workplace.
“Ahhhhh! Please don’t! Don’t kill me!”
“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”
“Please just stop, I have children!”
“Silence this noisy one.”
“Yes, Oda-sama.”
‘Back to work, I guess.’ Kaguya thought.
Keeping the peace of The Empire was not an easy job. After all, there would always be those who sin against The Emperor, and as The Emperor’s shadows, they must keep everything clean.
Kaguya made her presence known, and in less than a few seconds, an older man, Oda Blank, one of the leaders of The Blank Clan, and a woman named ‘Mifune’ stood in front of her. Mifune being just a codename and not her real name. Only Oda could use his real name in front of Kaguya since he was one of the leaders when Kaguya was busy.
“Report.”
“A good citizen of The Empire made an anonymous tip in Nightingale regarding possible traitors… We investigated and found that he was conspiring with Gods to sell any kind of information about The Empire.”
“Of course, none of what he took was useful, but to prevent possible seeds, they are going through the rehabilitation process,” Mifune spoke.
“Hmm, I assume it’s the Celts again?” Kaguya tapped the wood lightly with her finger.
“This time, it was the Hindus,” Oda spoke.
“I see, I assume Vlad said something about us ‘acquiring’ a Noble Vampire.”
“Yes.”
“We guarantee that we will hand them over within two days after the rehabilitation.”
“I see… Good work.” Kaguya nodded in satisfaction.
“Ever since we received Shiva’s ‘request’, the Hindus have been quite active. I wonder what The Emperor will do.” Oda spoke in a more casual tone since it was no longer a work matter.
Mifune promptly fell silent. After all, she was a subordinate here, even if it was a ‘casual’ environment now.
“Knowing my Husband… I’m sure he will act very soon.” She gave a small, sadistic smile.
“I’ll be waiting for that. I need to exercise this old back.”
Kaguya snorted. There was nothing old about this man, and he was still as competent as ever.
