Note: Filler chapter ahead…
=====================
“You have been staring at me for a while without replying.” My mom says with concern. “If you don’t want to tell me, it’s fine.” she adds and turns around like she’s about to walk away.
However, I grab her by the wrist, and stop her from walking away.
“You know, you look so jealous right now, mom. I know I ought to have told you, but it slipped my mind. Moreover, I’m pretty sure you already knew about it.” I tell my mom and look at her with a cocked eyebrow.
Her face suddenly flushes red.
“It… It’s not like that… I–I just can’t help it…” My mom mutters with a red face and puts her hand over her face in embarrassment.
Sigh…. I see… so she knew.
“Mom, I love Misty and she loves me too. In fact, we are going to get married after my graduation.” I say, after letting out a long sigh.
“Whaaaa—!!” My mom exclaims in surprise.
“To top it all off, she’s already pregnant.” I add.
“…..”
“Sigh…I knew this day would come.” My mom says as she walks dejectedly towards the bed and sits on it.
“So now, I’m about to become a grandmother. I’m happy and sad at the same time. But either way, I’m happy for you son!!” My mum suddenly shouts in joy as she jumps up from the bed and dashes towards me, pulling me into a tight warm motherly hug.
“However, I’m sad because my daughter won’t talk to me. She despises her own mother like she does a dhampir.” My mom says in a sad voice.
“Don’t worry mom, I promise to settle the dispute between you and Misty, and to also make you present when we are about to wed.”
“Thank you Jake. Are you also going to marry Aurora?”
“Yes,”
“I see….” Mom replies in a low voice as she removes herself from me and doesn’t pry further about Aurora, for some reason.
“Mom, I want to ask you a question. Do you have the same blood power as me?”
“No, I don’t. I just have the standard blood power that every vampire has, but I am more skilled with it.” Mom replies.
“Standard? What do you mean by that?” I ask, looking confused.
Well, you can’t blame me, I don’t really know much about vampire culture, the few that i know were taught to me by old man Duke.
“You see… When most vampires awaken their blood powers, it means that they learned how to use blood attacks. Blood attack can be described as turning blood into any dangerous weapon of your choice.
“However, using blood attack is limited, because you are only able to use the blood from your own body to attack. This is an example…” My mom says as she raises her palm in the air and slashes it horizontally.
Suddenly, a curved red aura bursts of her palm and flies toward her wardrobe, cleanly cutting it in half.
“Phew, I guess I have to go shopping again…” My mom groans as she drops her hand.
“Wow~”
I leak out a voice in surprise, clearly impressed by what she just performed.
“You are impressed, right? That’s the simplest vampire blood skill; blood strike. However, there are differences in the way one can use blood attacks. Blood attacks differ depending on a person’s skill, experience, comprehension, and lastly, evolution.
“For example, a regular vampire has a limited amount of blood attacks and skills he can use. The same goes for a noble vampire and other subclasses.
“Sigh… what’s that idiot Alphonso teaching you… I paid that fucker to teach you everything you need to know, is this what I get in return?” My mom lets out a long frustrated sigh while putting her hands on her face.
Actually, my mom’s talking about my teacher whom she’d hired for me when I was a kid. Well, my teacher wasn’t really a standard teacher to me, he was more like a pervert who showed me the way of the skirt.
“Sorry, mom…. I understand that you are not much of a talker.” I reply in defeat.
“It…It’s not like that honey, I’m not done explaining, I’m just mad at your good-for-nothing teacher. I’m going to call him and give him a piece of my mind.” Mom says in anger.
Suddenly, she calms down and glances at me again, looking apologetic.
“So as I was saying, as a vampire lord, my body can take as much as one thousand liters of blood which allows me to have an enormous amount of blood at my disposal for blood attacks. However, if I go against a stronger enemy, that amount of blood will be worthless. This weakness made vampires use abilities as alternatives as well.” My mom says and glances up at the ceiling as if she is trying to recall something.
“Mom, do you mean you can live for a year without feeding on blood? What then, is the reason why Misty and I are different” I ask my mum as I can’t just wrap my head around her explanations.
“Yes, I can live for 20 years without feeding on blood. The more you evolve the less blood you consume. I only drink blood to fill myself up so that when I sustain any injury, I can heal myself without any problems.
“And as for your question about why you and your sister are special. Well, as I said, I don’t really know the reason behind it, you guys were just special. There are 10 types of special blood powers apart from the normal blood attack.
Yours is one of them, the power which is similar to that of the Vampire god; the ‘Absolute blood control, the power to control any blood.” (Requires experience and evolution before one can fully master it.)
“Wait!” I interrupt my mom. “So you mean my power is really similar to that of the vampire god?” I ask, looking surprised. (Although this is the second time I’m hearing this, I always thought it was a joke.)
“Yes, according to history, the vampire god had the same power which made him the ruler of all blood. That’s why you shouldn’t show off your power too much.
Misty also has one of the ten special blood powers; the sanguine wrath. Sanguine wrath is really complicated and lethal, I hope she figures out how to use it properly. And the third one I have seen so far out of the ten is my father’s own; The blood eye of Abhorrence.
I don’t know about the remaining seven, but I believe that their wielders are somewhere in this universe.” My mom says as she finally catches her breath.
“Mom, according to your explanation, you mean that only one person is entitled to wield one of the ten special blood powers? But why do I have the same power as the vampire god? It just doesn’t make any sense…” I say in confusion.
“That’s why you are an anomaly amongst other vampires. Enough talk for today, Jake. Get ready, we have to head to that damned game house. ” Mom gives me a head pat and cracks her knuckles.
However, I don’t give her a reply because right now, blood-red letters are beginning to appear before my eyes.
