The Accidental Vampire

Atlas finally touched the piece of stone, but as soon as his fingers touched it, he felt a minor current course through his body.

The strange current didn't harm him, but it did feel a bit uncomfortable.

Atlas picked up the piece of stone, ignoring the strange feeling.

He showed the stone to Lilith. "What do you think? Could this be it?"

"If it was kept Hidden, it must be important for sure. But do you even know how to use it? Because I don't."

"I'm sure it's not supposed to be eaten so that only leaves a few options. We can try them all."

Atlas clenched his fist and walked to the fountain in the distance. He entered the fountain where Misella was lying inside the crystal clear water.

He placed his hand inside the water, still holding onto the beautiful stone. He placed the stone on the forehead of Misella.

He was sure that the stone couldn't turn anyone into a Progenitor just by being in its presence. And it couldn't be eaten either. That only left one possibility... The stone needed to touch someone to turn them into a progenitor.

He believed that was also the feeling he was getting when he touched the stone. The minor current he felt was possibly the stone trying to turn him into a Progenitor, only to stop after realizing that he was already a Progenitor.

He really hoped that his notion was correct.

The stone touched the forehead of Misella. Atlas stood in the water, waiting for as long as it took.

Thirty minutes passed, and Atlas still hadn't moved.

Seeing nothing happen, Lilith wondered if they were wrong about it. Maybe that's not how it worked. Or maybe it wasn't supposed to work in any way since she was already dead?

When the first four Progenitors came to be, they were all alive. They turned while being alive, but Misella was dead, so they were basically trying something that had never been done before.

The chances of them succeeding were looking more and more fleeting with each passing second.

Lancaster also looked earnestly, praying for it to work. He knew how much Atlas wanted this. If this didn't succeed, he was going to be heartbroken.

Atlas clenched his fist. As time passed, even he was starting to feel uneasy, but he didn't give up. He was going to stay there as long as it took.

Three more hours passed, and nothing had happened. Neither the fountain was working nor the pond.

By now, even Lancaster had started losing hope. It didn't look like this was going to work, no matter how much he wanted. Maybe bringing the dead back to life was really impossible. Maybe they were really optimistic.

Atlas clenched his fist. Was he really destined for failure? Was it really not going to work? If this wasn't going to work, then why did Castiel tell him to go for it? Why didn't Castiel stop him? Was he playing with him? No, that couldn't happen. Atlas clenched his fist and held on.

Five hours passed, and Lilith still hadn't opened her eyes. At this point, even Atlas was starting to lose hope. It had started looking like he actually was too optimistic, thinking he could bring a dead person back to life. It was probably impossible. The stone could maybe turn a person into a Progenitor, but not a deceased person.

He gazed at the faces of others outside the pond. They were all looking at him with gazes that seemed like they were telling him to give up.

Clenching his fist, Atlas finally decided to let it be. If Misella wasn't going to return, then maybe it was for the good. Maybe her soul was already in her next life, much happier? He knew he shouldn't disturb her eternal rest.

Clenching his fist, Atlas started standing up. However, as soon as he was about to completely stand, he felt like someone was holding onto his hand.

He looked down, noticing his hand was actually being grabbed by someone. And that someone was none other than Misella. She held his hand as if not wanting to let him go.

"Misella?" Atlas exclaimed, looking at the face of Misella, which was still peacefully sleeping.

He could see Misella's body growing up. It was as if she was becoming older. She did start looking older with each passing second as if she was aging a year with each second.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "It worked!" Atlas exclaimed in excitement.

This aging process was something that most of the Progenitors went through, where they become adults from teens. From what he was told, almost all Progenitors went through this.

If Misella was going through this as well, that meant it had succeeded! She had started turning into a Progenitor! Moreover, her hand movement convinced him that she was also back to life! He wasn't wrong! Castiel wasn't wrong! This stone could bring Misella back to life as a Progenitor.

Lilith and the others were also shocked to see Misella aging at such a speed. She was coming back to life! So it worked!

"A dead person coming back to life...?" Even Vor was surprised. "The world really has so many secrets. I thought that death was the only thing in the world that was permanent, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore..."

A dead person was coming back to life. None of them had seen something even close to this happening before. Luna wondered just what that stone was. The stone which was capable of bringing a dead person back to life? Just how was this possible? Where did that stone come from? Was this a natural stone or something made by someone?

If it was natural, then how did a death defying stone form? And why were there only four Progenitors in that case? And if it was made by someone, then just what kind of strength could that person have possessed? Even in her world, they had never heard of something like this ever. It was completely unheard of!
