Chapter 1053: War Games with the Daughters… Kinda?

As soon as Victor's words were spoken, the effects on Reality were instantaneous as the ice soldiers on both sides suddenly gained autonomy.

They acted like living Beings and breathed like living Beings but were not essentially alive, even though their frosty appearances had changed to resemble Races such as Vampires, Werewolves, and others. They were still constructs of ice, and to be a living Being, they would need to have Souls. They only moved because of Victor's Power.

A funny fact was that if Victor allowed enough time for these Beings to feed on his Power, eventually, these ice constructs would become Ice Spirits.

A consequence of Being the God of Beginnings—if he wasn't careful, he could accidentally 'begin' an entirely new Race.

Seeing the realistic scenario in front of them, Priscilla and Nikolina wasted no time and began ordering their forces to war. They started applying everything they had learned from the lessons their Mothers had given them.

Since the game was going to take a while, Victor altered the Time around them to give everyone a chance to enjoy it. A gesture only Yog-Sothoth, Akasha, and Valentina noticed due to who they were: Daughter of Azathoth and Victor, a Daughter created by Victor's Power who was sensitive to it, and the Daughter of Violet and Victor who inherited the same gift from her Father and Mother—they were quite sensitive to such alterations.

Although they were the only ones who noticed, this didn't mean the others were incompetent. If they hadn't been paying attention to what the two Sisters were doing, they would have discovered it too since everyone here was attuned to Victor's Power at some level of depth, some more than others for sure, but all were connected in some way.

At first, everything was fine, and the soldiers did their jobs as ordered, preparing as directed, but the two didn't notice one thing: Time was passing.

Normally, this type of issue wouldn't exactly be a problem, but in an imminent conflict where every second counts, the passage of Time tends to 'cool' things down, making soldiers inattentive.

"...I see... Now I understand in practice why our Father told us to pay attention to Time," a sibling resembling Valentina in everything but attitude, spoke; she was the Daughter of Agnes and Victor.

Unlike her Mothers and Sisters, Agatha Agnessa Elderblood was much more serious and focused. She had her relaxed sides that she only showed to her Father and Family, but her attitude was quite similar to that of Hilda Snow.

Agnes once joked that although Agatha came from her, she was more a Daughter of Hilda than of Agnes, as the two were very similar in attitude.

The existence of Agatha made Hilda, the Millennial Maid, cast furtive glances at Victor from time to time.

Like some of the other Daughters, there was a conflict in names with Agatha, too: Victor wanted to call her Agatha, and Agnes wanted to call her Agnessa.

To avoid pointless arguments, they just put both names on her, an attitude Agatha appreciated a lot from her Father because she really didn't like the name 'Agnessa'. Even though it was a name used long ago by one of her Ancestors, she believed that name was just her Mother's name with a few extra letters, and she didn't like that, after all, she wanted to be unique.

Interestingly, the group that comprised the Daughters of Agnes, Violet, Leona, and Maya were almost considered quadruplets due to their strong resemblance to each other, with Maya's Daughter being slightly more unique due to her lighter brown skin tone compared to the nearly pale complexion of her Sisters.

Speaking of Maya's Daughter, she was one of the children who had other 'Siblings' who were not Victor's children. But, much like her Goddess Sisters, she did not recognize any of the other children or grandchildren of her Mother as her 'Family.' She didn't interfere with them, nor did she interact with them, maintaining an attitude of indifference.

This was an attitude that women like Maya, Jeanne, Aphrodite, and Hestia actually didn't mind. After all, it was understandable that they wouldn't feel attached to these Family members since they would never interact much with them, and they understood very well that it was challenging to make a Young Dragon interested in another Being that wasn't their Father, who was also a Progenitor Dragon.

On the more 'Divine' side, Gina, Daughter of Gaia, absolutely despised all her 'relatives.' To her, they were neither her Siblings nor her Family.

The same applied to the Daughters of Aphrodite and Hestia. Considering who the Olympians were, it was understandable that the children didn't like them, and honestly, Aphrodite and Hestia were fine with this. They didn't want their children to associate with their relatives either.

They knew very well how toxic they could be, and they didn't want that for their Daughters. Aphrodite especially took great care to ensure that her son Eros would never try to approach her beloved Daughter because she knew very well that that would be the day that Eros would die.

If not by the hands of Victor, then by the hand of her beloved Daughter. She wasn't exactly defenseless, considering that she also possessed a powerful Charm like her Mother's, and with the training she received from Beings like Scathach from a young age, she was quite deadly.

Even though she didn't exactly like the attitudes of her son, she also didn't want to see him killed by the two loves of her life, so she made sure to always keep an eye on him so the fool wouldn't get himself killed by being too stupid.

The only exception to this rule seemed to be Morgana's Daughter and, to a much lesser extent, Amaterasu's Daughter. They were still indifferent but spoke occasionally to their other Family side out of 'obligation.'

Morgana's Daughter despised how her relatives wasted so much time doing absolutely nothing; such laziness was against everything she was raised upon. Amaterasu's Daughter only looked at the other Gods of Takamagahara with disdain and indifference, all weak and obsequious Beings who could die with a simple wave of her hand.

Surprisingly for both Amaterasu and the woman herself, the only one she got along with was Amaterasu's mother, Izanami-no-Mikoto, also known as one of the Primordial Goddesses of the Shinto Pantheon.

A relationship that Amaterasu wasn't sure was good or not, considering that Izanami had been at war with Amaterasu not long ago. Since her Husband did nothing to prevent this encounter, and as Izanami was still sealed, she decided not to care but would continue to keep an eye on her Daughter when she visited her mother.

For the women who already had children in the past and who now had children with Victor, when Victor's children discovered their siblings, it was more an attitude of, 'Oh, they're related to me, huh? Meh, who cares?'

The world was large, after all, and everyone was related to everyone in some way, so they didn't think much about it. To them, their Family was everyone present in this place at this exact moment.

"Our perception of Time is different from others, and this can be detrimental in something that requires quick action," Valentina responded to Agatha.

"I understand that they are organizing the army, and the supplies to prepare for war, but they are taking too long. At the same time they should organize the supplies, they should send exploration units to learn what the other was doing. That information could be what gives them victory or not." She explained.

"... Not only that." Siren shook her head. "They clearly didn't understand our Father's warning completely." She was sure they heard what Victor said, but they probably didn't fully understand what Victor's words meant, 'Treat this like a real war.'

And they would pay for this lack of understanding now...

Victor smiled slightly. "Since you completely understood what I meant, Siren. Why don't you do the honors?"

She smiled excitedly: "Yes, Father." A red spear appeared in her hand, and then she created a portal, jumping towards the field that Victor created.

The moment she stepped on the ground, a new 'Faction' had been created, and unlike the two Sisters, Siren didn't waste any time in organizing the army or anything like that; she just ordered them.

"Those who can fight follow me." She looked around and saw a weaker looking man; she hit the spear on the ground and tried to create an Ice Creation... But nothing happened.

'Father is limiting our Powers.' She narrowed her eyes and realized that she could still use her natural senses, but her body had been sealed to the level of an Elder Vampire, and her Powers had been completely sealed.

'My senses are enough.' She thought and then spoke. "You." She pointed at the weaker looking man. "You will organize the supplies when I get back, I want everything underway. "

"M-Me?"

"Correct. Do not fail me for your own good."

Without saying anything else, she turned and said, "Let's go." Then she started running, much slower than she was used to, but still very fast.

The soldiers, who were limited to Adult Vampires, with a select few being Elder Vampires, quickly went with her.

Seeing this scene, Victor smiled. 'Scathach's charisma indeed.' Scathach had something that made others follow her and obey her, even if they didn't know her. Maybe it was her confidence, maybe it was her intense eyes, maybe it was her beauty, maybe it was the feeling that said she was very strong.

'Or perhaps it was a combination of all of these.' Victor could see various reasons and make various speculations, but in the end, the correct word would be her natural charisma. In a war like this, whoever had the most competent Leader would be the one who would win.

In that sense, Siren was better suited for this type of work.

Although the two other Princesses were competent, they weren't exactly Leader material, and that was okay since that kind of skill could be learned over time. Charisma could also develop over time.

Victor understood this clearly, considering that he only came to have his 'charisma' when he learned and became stronger; such a thing also happened to Scathach.

The introduction of Siren threw the other two Factions into chaos, and the woman wasted no time, attacking essential points of both Factions.

The two Leaders reacted very late, and when they appeared on the battlefield, Siren was already gone.

"... In a war, never think that there will not be other parties involved. Is that what your warning meant, Father?" Yuno pointed out.

"Exactly, my Daughter." Victor smiled. "A conflict of any kind always attracts everyone's attention, and many will use this conflict to try to benefit themselves."

"In this specific case, the scenario was that Prycila's Faction and Nikolina's Faction were at odds and were going to war. When, suddenly, the Siren's Faction saw a way to benefit from this conflict."

"No wonder Siren's Faction has fewer resources than the other two." Silvia Elderblood, Sasha's Daughter with Victor, spoke.

"Indeed. In this particular scenario, Siren is playing a group that has few resources but has exceptional individuals within it."

"Overall, they are weaker in terms of numbers than the other two Factions, but with a competent Leader who knows what to do, this small force could be a disaster for both sides."

"Siren wisely attacked where it hurts most in an army... She attacked their supply routes and stole a lot of them for herself."

"...But, she didn't take something into consideration either."
