Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System Chapter 498

Published at 30th of August 2023 01:06:00 PM



Before Jeanne started telling her story, the pair of mother and daughter as well as Emily intensely gazed at Daimon, though they didn't say anything they were clearly waiting for him to take his mask off.

But they instead saw the crazy girl return to her real appearance by cancelling the disguising effect of the bracelet of the god of mischief.

1.8 meters of height, white pale skin with straight bright purple hair that cascaded down all the way to her hips, despite being quite tall for her age and being a knight, her figure was quite feminine having quite noticeable curves on the right places.

Her eyes were also of a light purple color and to crown all the previous a pretty face akin to a young lady of noble birth, if there was any downside to it that was the fact that she was giving Daimon quite a predacious gaze.

As if she was weighting whether she should try to pounce on him and grab a bite or not, leaving her outstanding appearance aside, she looked a bit older than before and also her real level was revealed as she radiated the aura of a middle stage Lord rank.

At least that was the realm she had, as for how strong she really was, let alone Reyne, even Jeanne and Emily couldn't discern it and that picked their interest.

"You don't seem to be like us, but you also don't seem to be human… at all", said Emily as she observed the crazy girl.

"Don't stare too much only my fated one can do that~", said Sarah as she licked her lips at Daimon, while also accentuating her figure while stealing a gaze at Reyne, who for once actually looked a bit pissed.

In terms of beauty in general, Reyne didn't lose to Sarah at all, but the crazy girl was quite well-endowed while Reyne was more on the slim elegant side, which wasn't that noticeable previously when she was in disguise, since Sarah literally used the image, she had of herself when she was younger to make her disguise.

"How old are you?", asked Reyne to which the crazy girl said.

"I'm 24 why…", just as Sarah was speaking, she saw a little almost unnoticeable triumphant smile appear on Reyne's face, which made the crazy girl suddenly feel the urge to punch her.

"I'm about to be 17 years old in a few months and I'm also a middle stage Lord rank, I'll reach you in no time", she said as she gazed at looked at her mother from the corner of her eyes.

Though Jeanne also had that elegant refined aura, to be put in simple words her body was sinful, Emily was quite the same, by the way.

"Ahem, let's not divagate from the subject, here you go", said Daimon interrupting the gaze clash between those two, as he took off his mask, needless to say but the presents were surprised to see Daimon's face behind the mask.

Vampires are quite proud of two things, their lineage and their looks, it's not an exaggeration to say that they are one of the vainest races, with alfears not being that from them, of course not all are like that, but it's of common knowledge.

That being said, they indeed are quite lookers, at least in the time Daimon spent at the Naktis's castle, he never saw a maid who wasn't at the level of the top models back at earth.

And with Aisha's good genes, his lineage and the Apex Predator body, the result was a killer, his defined traits and the fact that his skin was rather pale, which perfectly contrasted with his silver hair and amethyst-colored eyes, made him be on par with those pretty boys, but his aura was a wild one eliminating any kind of frailness, not to mention his expression by default was a slightly serious one, giving him a much mature sensation overall.

It was especially eye catching because normally knights have rougher aspects, stereotypes exist for a reason, and while not all knights are muscleheads, they tend to have way bulky complexions and Daimon looked like the perfect mix of both the refined appearance one would expect from a mage and the imposing aspect of a knight.

"Are you done you three?", casually asked the crazy girl with a somewhat irritated voice, as she saw them staring at Daimon.

"Mm, he doesn't look like any of the Dukes nor the Archdukes, what do you think Jeanne?", said Emily, to which Jeanne shook her head in response.

"No, I also don't recall any noble with those characteristics, the purer lineages have bright red eyes and either blond or black hair", she said.

The only one who didn't make a comment and just sweetly smiled at Daimon was Reyne, very much to the displease of the crazy girl.

The previous made Daimon remember what he thought about earlier.

"Speaking of that, can we just talk about it like this?", he asked, as he looked at Reyne making the latter softly laugh.

"I know about mom and aunt Emily… in fact I'm the same", she said with her calm gentle voice, as her skin became a bit paler and her eyes turned bright red, unlike the unhealthy white tone that Dilan had, Jeanne, Emily and Reyne didn't look lifeless but snow pale like noble ladies that had never worked under the scorching sun of Kerrol, even if two of them are knights.

"You are wondering why you couldn't detect anything from neither me or Reyne, while Emily's case was different… that is because Emily was a pure blood, but don't think bad of her, her family wasn't like the other nobles, for a change there used to be an Archduke who didn't allow his descendants to kill nor feed on humans".

"Which is why they were purged by all the other nobles, Emi's mother managed to escape with her to the wasteland where we met, due to me being wounded on the head and encircled by magic beasts, even if they were escaping, they helped me…", Jeanne waited for a moment before continuing.

"Back then Reyne was only a few months old, I did my best to protect her but there were simply too many magic beasts, and lady Vanis helped me because she was a mother too, though Emi was already an adult, back then she wasn't way weaker than me", she said with a somewhat nostalgic smile.

"Anyway, we escaped together but the battle attracted the attention of the hunting team of the flesh eating demons, which led lady Vanis to give up her life and we still found ourselves surrounded by them, I fought until the wounds were too much and it was then when Emi came to my help, giving me part of her organs while she took mine to replace hers".

"For some reason that made her reach my same level, not only that but we became temporarily stronger as you previously saw and then we got rid of all our persecutors, Emi became part human and I became part flesh eating demon, as for Reyne I think she was affected because I breastfed her, unfortunately we had no choice because I had nothing else on me besides my clothes and Reyne when I woke up in the wasteland, just a few weeks prior to that".

"And Emi and her mother lost their rings too during the fight, we could eat the meat of magic beasts and drink their blood but Reyne wouldn't have been able to process that", she said with an apologetic voice.

"Wait, weren't you part of the Valleris, what were you doing alone in the middle of nowhere in the wasteland?", asked Daimon which made Jeanne chuckle.

"Ah right, you must think Reyne is Oliver's daughter, but that's not the case, by the time we reached a slightly civilized town, Reyne was already ten years old, since we had to stop to rest and avoid the dangerous magic beasts along the way, I met Oliver there when he was still doing field job as an Adjudicator, and kicked his ass when he tried to attack Emily".

"Then made a contract with him, I will help the Valleris in exchange for Emily's safety and she will provide the Adjudicators with all the information she had about the flesh eating demons, after a lot of trials and other boring stuff to demonstrate that Emily doesn't have the need nor the desire to eat human flesh, they accepted but to convince the old fogeys I had to act as Oliver's wife on the surface".

"Back then Oliver already had Eliot with his previous wife who died… due to the church setting her up, and we had no idea on how to interact with others, so it was good for Reyne to have someone near her range of age too".

'Oh, so that's why that guy hates me so much, I got in the way of his fantasies', thought Daimon.

Previously he was a bit surprised since it was way obvious Eliot was head over heels for Reyne, he didn't judge the guy for that because… Aisha, but the fact that the upright and strict Oliver didn't seem to be against it, frankly surprised him and now it turns out that it was because they weren't real siblings, but more of childhood friends who grew together, what amused him is that the white-haired guy also seemed to be interested in Reyne, both unaware that she was part of the race they hinted with such fierceness, in comparison while Oliver was an Adjudicator he showed respect towards both Jeanne and Emily, though he might be in the dark regarding Jeanne being also part Ghoul, or more accurately a Nelapsi according to the system.

"So that is our story, in case you wonder I have no idea why I was left behind in the middle of nowhere with a newborn child no less, but we were both humans back then, that is for sure, and I don't remember anything prior to that, it was too close to the Blood Continent, so I guess I was wounded by a noble but managed to escape since I was an early stage Arch rank back then", she said.

Daimon nodded, he got more knowledge about their race now, at least he knew that they were able to get nourishment from normal food or blood, and weren't obligated to drink blood, which placed them at the same level as the high ranked nobles of the three vampire families.

And here is where he had to take a decision, at first, he wasn't going to tell them about his origins, since there was no need for that, but then they have actually helped him and even went to the length of lending him a hand when dealing with the church.

Which though he wasn't afraid of them, they would have made him waste time not to mention he'll have to brute force his way into the volcanic zone, there is also the fact that he had decided to go against the fake notifications.

'The hero surely never told anyone about his origins and he royally failed, only an idiot would follow his same steps', he thought to himself.

Of course, he didn't directly tell them about that, but instead turned to see the crazy girl and asked for her opinion, only to receive a direct "Okay", when he exposed to her that it would help find Jasmine faster.

While Daimon was telling the Nelapsi trio about where they came, at the other side of the human territory, there was a border city called Caliz, the scale was pretty much the same as Tiria, but there was a major difference and that is the fact that the guards at the entrance, and the mansion of the City Lord were both pained with the colors of the Church of Justice, in other words white, red and golden.

There was also a cathedral here, but the size of it was around twice the one at Tiria, even surpassing the dimensions of the mansion of the City Lord, unlike Tiria, it all happened because the Lord of this city was fatally wounded when fighting a magic beast, which also led to a large part of his army to be eliminated.

And with the lack of manpower to spare, the other Adjudicators couldn't send enough people to make up for it, so the Church offered "help" with some strings attached to it, which led to the current situation, anyway the people were safe and there wasn't shortage of food so for the regular citizens nothing had changed.

Inside the previously mentioned cathedral, there was a luxurious room where a handsome blond hired man was currently residing in, naturally that was none other than Adam.I think you should take a look at

'Finally, these damn missions have started to pay up', he thought as he rang the bell on the nightstand next to the bed in which he was laying down.

When he arrived at the previous town, he happened to meet an evaluator from the Church of Justice and that triggered a mission, which required him to help them fight against some enemies or something like that.

So, he came to Caliz city following that guy, and the moment he set foot in the cathedral he happened to meet the one in charge, who was more than impressed by his strong light affinity.

From that point onwards his life finally returned to what it should have been, he was treated as the hero he is and basically spoiled rotten by the servants of the church, especially the woman who recognized his talent who happened to be a Cardinal, and his mot recent addition to his long list of toys, no, he actually was considering to take her as one of his women, since he was quite pleased with her in all the meaning of the word.

Once the service bell rang, the door opened and a tall woman with short brown hair, wearing a red and golden nightgown entered the room.

"How lively, I told you we'll soon be at war with those sinners", said the woman with a coquettish voice, which made Adam shrug.

"Why are you worried about that Paula, didn't you mention it yourself, that the place where all those treasures are, is supposed to only leave those below the Arch rank enter, there is no one stronger than me under the Arch ranks, forget about that and come here, weren't you the one who wanted my "sword" before", he said as he patted the place next to him on the bed.

The woman softly laughed and then undressed as she got onto the bed, as the light of the room faded out, Adam saw the angel girl Ariel who was casually floating on the room before, disappear since she didn't want to see what was about to happen.

'Oh, come on don't be like that Ariel, the mission was literally made for me, to think that the Light Hero Sword I got as awakening gift was one of the keys to the legacy of the Blue Hero, I was even guided to this specific city with this beauty to serve me, finally some fucking good luck after all that crap', mentally said Adam.

'Now it makes sense that the reward from the mission was useless, the real treasure was hidden somewhere else, waiting for me to take it, maybe I should take the stronger members of the church as my subordinates, they seem to be better than those guys at Neptune, I bet Marcus will shit his pants when I come back with an army hahaha!'.

Unfortunately, he was met with silence from the angel girl, not that he minded since he had more important matters in his hands right now, literally.

And while he was busy touching here and there, the woman whispered at his ears.

'Don't forget who was the first one to support you later, unless you prefer to bed those old fogeys or those saggy women of course", she said with an alluring voice making Adam laugh.

"I was quite lucky to find the only beauty among Cardinals".

'Quite lucky', thought the woman as she laid on top of Adam while she stole a gaze at his sword, which was placed at the corner of the room.

…

Back at Tiria and more accurately to the meeting room at the castle of the Valleris family, there was a slightly comical scene ongoing.

There were three girls, two adults and a young one inspecting Daimon from head to toe, they even asked him to show them his fangs, which even without the enlargement that happened when he wanted to drink blood, were larger than normal.

"So, from where you come, we who don't need to drink blood but can get nourishment from regular food, would be "vampires" and high ranked noble ones like you on top of that?", curiously asked Reyne.

"To think there is another world so close, when all the nearby planets are completely death and uninhabitable", said Emily, she was interested in astronomy, but there was nothing much she could do here, Kerrol natives couldn't even leave the planet, butt hey had telescopes strong enough to reach other planets.

Obviously ever since the blood moon week were most of the planet was turned into an extremely dangerous place, the humans have been considering the chance to move to another planet, but they then discovered that the nearby planets were in a much worse condition.

Which the flesh eating demons also got to know, which was part of the reason as to why the war became even more fiercer, there was no way to go, the winner will survive and the loser will go extinct.

"Then in your world those who aren't human are not discriminated?", asked Jeanne, only to see Daimon shrug in response.

"It depends, as long as there are benefits there is war, that doesn't change no matter where you go, the difference is that we are certainly have it way easier than here, there are many planets that have been conquered and colonized, by the various races, since we can easily travel through space", he said.

Daimon didn't bother to hide it, because he made a soul oath with these three so that they couldn't reveal anything, that being said they didn't seem to be interested in sharing this information with anyone else.

If anything, he was a bit worried about the intense stare of the crazy girl, since she didn't know he was a vampire, he didn't particularly hide it from the Risha sisters and the other girls, but he didn't mention it, but at this point it wasn't necessary to hide it, they already knew he could use both mana and battle aura anyway.

And as he expected he was right to feel that sensation of unease as he heard the crazy girl saying.

"Then, can you drink my blood…".

"No", Daimon immediately refused her request, but that only made the crazy girl happier.

"Ahh, such a cutting negative answer~", she said as she tried to hug Daimon only to be avoided by him, the previous made Reyne raise an eyebrow as she mumbled.

"Is that kind of thing normal from where you come or…".

"No, she is just crazy", said Daimon as he sighed.

The small relaxing time was over the next second when they heard someone knocking at the door, Daimon nodded at Jeanne, they had already signed their own deal, while he prepared a public one for the Adjudicators.

"Come in", said Jeanne, only then Oliver opened the door, he wasn't alone unlike when he left, there was a tall old man with short gray beard standing behind of him, but that wasn't all, Eliot also tagged along next to the old man.

Even before Oliver could say anything, Daimon casually said.

"Was I not clear enough earlier, I don't want to see him", he of course was using his mask again, while Sarah had returned to her disguised appearance.

"I was the one brought him along, little friend, I have been told the story and I agree to pay for the evidence you mentioned as well as giving you the space in the first batch that enters that place, can't you give my grandson a chance in exchange, he is also going so it's better for the youths to be in good terms", said the old man, who was surprisingly quite relaxed compared to Oliver.

That being said the City Lord still disciplined his son by making him bow his head.

"Now, a City Lord must always recognize his mistakes, where is your apology, our guests have more than proven to be allies of humanity", said Oliver with a strict voice.

"I… am sorry", it took Eliot everything he had to spat those words, it was obviously a forced one, but Daimon didn't care about him to be honest, if he tried anything, he will kill him and that's it.

So, leaving Eliot's matter aside, the three newcomers entered the room and sat on the table, then the old man gazed at Daimon before saying.

"Could you tell me what is the evidence you mentioned, we have already summoned the allies who were nearby in extreme secrecy, so once we have a look of it, we'll take actions against the church, all at the same time".

Daimon nodded and then took out a well-designed badge with a red emblem on it.

"I captured the son of that Blood Earl, which is why those idiots from the church came to frame me, they thought I might have some information about him, since it's been some time since he disappeared", said Daimon.

Naturally the presents were baffled at Daimon's affirmation, killing flesh eating demons is a thing, everyone here has done that quite a lot in fact, but capturing one, and the direct descendant of a really important noble is a completely separate matter.
