Chapter 48: Accept our Relationship I
"Take me to the Demon World," Vergil said again. It had been two days since he was being trained in a completely ridiculous way, in his eyes.
"I already told you, I'm not interested in that," Sapphire replied.
At that moment, Vergil was upside down, using a metal bar for exercise, while Sapphire sat with a book, sunbathing, carefree.
"So that's it," Sapphire said. Novah had just told the whole story behind Vergil becoming a Demon.
"What's his blood type?" she asked curiously. "RH Null, miss, the rarest," Novah answered.
"Pff… HAHAHAHA," she laughed again. "The stars aligned more than I thought HAHAHAHA!" She laughed like a madwoman...
Novah just looked at her, wondering if this crazy woman was really aware of everything happening.
"And to think… Pfff… to think my daughter would create this…? HAHAHAHA!" She seemed very happy for some reason.
"Queen… do you know something?" She stopped laughing for a moment and looked at Novah, a slight smile on her face. "Who knows? I'm quite old; maybe I'm just a crazy woman?"
Novah's face tightened a bit; she didn't expect Sapphire to respond that way.
Sapphire continued to wear a soft smile, took a deep breath, and exhaled. "Ahh~ It's been a long time since I've had this much fun. When was the last time? I think it was a thousand years ago… When was it… oh yes… in the Heiam Era… Oh, I miss that time."
Novah grimaced as she turned to look at Vergil. She couldn't focus on Sapphire for long; the woman's large breasts swayed too much with any simple movement.
'Tsc, she looks like a milk cow,' Novah thought.
Sapphire stood up and walked slowly toward the man who was on count number 5,000 in his reverse push-ups, smiling as she stood in front of him.
"That's enough; take a break now. Doing this with that pathetic body will kill you soon," she said, an aura of deadly intent leaking from her body.
Vergil's instincts nearly exploded upon feeling the command; it felt like he was being tested, and his instincts screamed "DANGER!" He quickly released the metal bar and landed on his feet, assuming a fighting stance, sensing the force coming from the woman toward him.
"Pff… quick reaction, but not good enough," she commented, hiding her smile with her hands.
Calmly, she approached Vergil, who was shirtless, leaning forward, revealing a gentle smile and a huge neckline that Vergil looked at without any fear. Despite trembling with a sense of danger, he continued to stare at her breasts.
"Oh," she said, seeing he was losing his fear, and decided to tease him by getting closer...
"Not so bad after all…" she said, running her fingers over the center of his chest and slowly descending to his abdomen, which had improved somewhat...
"Not bad at all..." she murmured, a mischievous smile appearing, and calmly her finger began to glide from his belly button to the edge of his shorts.
"S-S-S-Sapphire," he stammered, still not showing the necessary respect and continuing to call her by her first name...
"M-M-Mom?!" Katharina grunted upon arriving and seeing her mother almost… taking off her husband's shorts.
"Oh… my sweet daughter is back," Sapphire said, returning to her normal pose, leaving Vergil free for a moment...
'Is he still alive??!!' Novah, who had accompanied Sapphire on several trips, couldn't help but question what the hell was happening! She had seen Sapphire kill thousands of men just for looking at her!
'Why is my mom playing like this with my husband? I will kill her!!' Katharina screamed internally, even though she knew it was impossible...
"It's okay… she's just teasing me, right, Sapphire?" Vergil asked, smiling while the woman turned her face away to avoid looking at that gentle smile. "Tsc, whatever," she said.
Vergil looked at Katharina and gave her a gentle pat on the head to comfort her. "Hehehe," she smiled foolishly at Vergil's touch, and his heart warmed at the cuteness of his first wife.
"Now that I think about it… we haven't even properly introduced ourselves, have we?" Vergil said, looking at Sapphire, who hadn't even mentioned her name correctly until now.
"Hm? I already know who you are, kid," she replied disinterestedly as she returned to her beach chair and lay down. "Nothing matters," she said, uninterested.
"I'm sorry, I'd like to introduce myself, so just listen, okay? It's not like the all-powerful has anything to do, right?" Vergil joked, mocking her lack of tasks, and he stepped forward.
He opened a gentle smile.
"My name is Vergil Kennedy, nice to meet you, Mother-in-law." It was just a moment, but Vergil felt the tension in the air... Why? Because the two women nearby were terrified! They didn't know how Sapphire would react to the word MOTHER-IN-LAW.
After all… this meant his daughter was growing up and living on her own… And she was a protective mother! Even if she didn't show it...
"...Heh," the woman displayed a dangerous smile and licked her lips. "Nice to meet you, Vergil. I am Katharina's mother; my name is Sapphire Agares... The Demon Queen of the Agares Clan."
"Now that we've introduced ourselves, let's talk about important matters." Vergil continued smiling, trying to be as gentle as possible.
"Oh?" She seemed curious about what he wanted to say.
"I want to ask for your permission to be with Katharina." The woman's smile suddenly disappeared, making her entire being shatter like glass.
"D-Dear, that's too fast!" Katharina looked at him with evident fear on her face; it wasn't just her, Novah almost choked upon hearing what he wanted to say.
"Kid, don't you understand your situation?" Katharina's mother spoke in a neutral tone.
"I understand my situation," he said, looking at her, reverting to his irrational self just to deal with her. "I married your daughter and didn't ask for your permission for that, did I?"
