When I woke up again, I saw a girl gradually grow up in a world like Earth. She was a girl with a shiny and bubbly personality. Everyone loved her. She had a loving family, but one day a black vortex came out of nowhere and sucked her in, and then she was thrown into another world where she knew nothing.
People there worshipped her as a saint, but later they came to know their saint had an affinity for dark magic, so they wanted to kill her and summon another saint with the power of light to seal the devil king. She ran away from her own race and came into vampire territory unknowingly, but when other vampires didn't want to accept a human, the prince of Darkania came and accepted her on two conditions. Condition No. 1 was that she had to change her race, and Condition No. 2 was that she had to join him in sealing the devil king.
She accepted the second condition, but as for the first, she wanted to keep her human consciousness, so she proposed the idea of marrying one of the vampires.
Years passed, and she started to know more and more about her powers and control them well. She was protected by a vampire prince, and that vampire prince became the vampire king after a bloody war of succession for the throne. After that vampire prince became vampire king, he married the human girl, who was at that time called the dark saint. They fought to seal the devil king together, but at the last moment, the saint of light got controlled by the devil king, making the saint of darkness seriously injured. So to seal the devil king, all of the races sent their own elemental-powered saints, and at the cost of half of their souls, they could seal the devil king for a short period of time. That saint of light became a powerful devil's spawn, and guardians had to use more of their power to seal her too.
The scene changed, and the vampire king and the dark saint returned to their kingdom, where they started to live happily. But because of the missing part of her soul, the queen knew she could not live long or give birth to a child with a complete soul, but she wanted to leave someone as a sign of love. So she conceived a child without the knowledge of the vampire king, and she only let him know when she couldn't be saved anymore. She gave birth to a pretty child who is neither a vampire nor a human but has both. But to save the child, she sent her child's soul to another world, but the expense was another half of her soul. She saved a bit of her soul and locked it in a pendant, gave it to her husband, and said to give it to her daughter when she would wake up and till then preserve and protect her body.
"I love you, My daughter, Sorry, mommy cannot be with you, and you had to suffer in another world. The cause of my existence is over now. You must be well-trained, unite all races, and keep the devil king at bay for an extended period of time. And if possible, destroy him once and for all so that there is no longer a need for a saint. Be with your dad and say to him, I love him. Please take good care of him." My mommy said it with tear-filled eyes.
"Mommyyyyy... If I never touched you, you would have always been here, right?", I asked while trying to get a hug from my mother, whom I have never seen but for whom I have such a strong attachment.
"No, Child, I was waiting for you; the longer you take to reach me, the weaker I will be when we meet and the less time I can have with you. Don't worry, child, I will always be with you. When you wake up, tell your dad everything he will give you. That necklace has my remaining soul, and it can protect you once. a Even if you can reach level 10 in the social linking skill, You can talk with me. Don't worry, my child, I will always be with you and protect you!", My mom said with a not-so-smiley face.
This time, when I look at my mom, I can now understand why Aunty Eco said her eyes are like my one eye. Her eyes are black, as the night sky still feels like it has thousands of stars. No one can resist the magic of her eyes. She has jet-black hair, a pretty heart-shaped face, and a straight nose. She is wearing a white dress made of white roses and floating in the air. When I tried to touch her, I couldn't, as she is a soul that cannot materialize.
"Mom, then what about my dad? If I take away the pendant, he won't be able to talk with you,", I said in a confused voice.
"Silly child, He cannot meet me ever, as we are from different worlds and my real self is gone. What is left is my will for you. It won't respond to him; it is only for you, and only you can know my message. You must join the Academy of Magica, befriend descendants of saints, and be wary of new saints from other worlds, although I think there would be only one saint that would come to this world as the replacement of the saint of light. Be cautious, my dear child! Now it's time for me to go. Live your life to the fullest!", My mom said with a reluctant voice, kissing my forehead. I could feel a light hug of darkness for a moment, and I started to cry as my mom's soul started to fade away.
"Don't go, Mommy!", I started to cry like a child.
But she faded away, and a white rose petal touched my cheek, and I woke up from the dream, still crying like a child.
I felt a cold hug and a pat on my head.
"Don't cry, my dear child; It was her choice."
"But she died to give birth to me, and to save me, she used her remaining soul,", I said while crying bloody tears.
"No, My dear Lyra, she cannot be saved even if she hadn't given birth to you; she may live a bit longer with more pain... So don't be guilty. Do whatever she said to her and live your life to the fullest", My dad replied with a resolute tone and gave me a box.
When I opened the box, I saw a shiny black and rose-gold necklace.
After taking the Black rose jeweled necklace, Bao came out on her own and started to dance in mid-air. When my dad saw Bao, He bowed."Greetings, The greatest queen of Vampires!", My dad said respectfully."No need; I am not that fool anymore... Only half of my soul is in this mirror, and the other half is in that black rose jewel. Can I have this?" Bao asked gently."But within this Jewel, my mom's last part of the soul is in; how can I give it to you, bao?" I said this while crying."Don't worry, child. You are extremely lucky that your mom left this Jewel for you; with this jewel, my soul would be completed and the curse on vampires would be lifted. We won't be creatures that are neither dead nor alive anymore." She said this while pondering something."But what about my mom?" I asked.Bao is silent, and so is my father too. Both of them can understand my dilemma."I can restore your mom's soul if a bit of her soul is in there, But it would take a long time, and you have to be power
After learning everything, I came to understand how powerful the vampire race is and how badly I need to protect my heart from dark thoughts. The dark magic is powerful, but it is easy to lose control and do a massacre, so I decided not to fall in love and help my ancestor, as helping her also helps our full race, and my mom's soul can be nourished.So I said confidently and bowed my head towards my life mirror, aka the greatest vampire queen Luna Ariana Da Vamp, "I have already decided, the greatest queen of vampires, that I would give you the black rose gem as it would benefit all of our clansmen. We can approach the light again. Also, you said you would help restore my mom's soul. So, it's a good deal.""But dear, you can treat me as your friend, Bao, like before. I will continue to guide you as you become stronger. The faster you grow up, the faster your mom can be resurrected. The necklace would be the same as now; just the mirror would fuse with the gem. Now I can even come outsi
I woke up in a bed, but this time it was not a new bed but the old canopy one, and someone was holding my hands."You woke up? It is great! I thought I would lose you like your mom. Don't do so much risky work like this anymore. You still have your dad... If I could have found out some way, then you wouldn't have to suffer this much. I am sorry, my dear child,", My dad said while having a shaky voice. He pats my head lightly while looking at me very affectionately. I can feel his love for me, and I think he is missing someone whom he reminisces about while seeing me... I can guess, but I'm not sure if I should bring it up or not. I should use this rare moment to make a good memory and get a lot of love from my dearest dad. But I still want to know about my mom; I would rather play by ear."Dad.. ", I tried to call my dad affectionately, but I cannot say it anymore, and my voice sounds hoarse. I have the desire to drink something that can quench my thirst. Dad seems to understand what i
We finished our garden tour and the little tea party without talking about anything more. While I would go back to my room, I would ask my dad with both confidence and a confused tone,” Really, no one can change their destiny? What would happen if we tried to change others’ destinies? Nothing can be constant, right? We should be the ones who shape our destinies. Our karma would decide everything. Who cares about the result if I can try my best?”My dad stared at me with her red-gilded eyes, which were shining like a red ruby. His eyebrows raised slightly, and he raised the corner of his mouth and started to talk with me in a soft voice that sounded like a song to me. "My dear daughter; My Lyra. I am proud of you!”He also asked,” Do you want to know what would happen if you interfered with others’ destiny?”I nodded in response.“Okay. If you insist, I will tell you. You may have some vision, as your mother was a saint, and all saints can see the future to a certain extent. But everyon
Everything around me started to come back to life. The altar started to glow, and the dark orb began to release dark particles. Many creatures that can live in the dark came back to life. Everything changed; the twin moon started to glow, and the altar started to look more mysterious—dark but blooming with life.I came back to my feet, and where I stepped, there blossomed a flower, the red lily, the flower of death.I ran to my dad, hugged him, and told him what happened. He listened to me seriously and carried me in his arms. At the same time, Bao came out and told me to stop the mana flow or else I would drop dead even before my mission was completed. But the problem was that I didn't know what mana flow was or what mana was. I tried to concentrate as I saw in different novels. When I focused, I seemed to see something like some darkish green particles emitting from my body. My whole body is full of those particles. I guess these particles are called mana. But they are more concentra
After Bao bound me in my room with her magic, she gave me punishment for teasing her. I gotta level up my heart core to level 11 and to do this I need to know how to control my mana. She said Rose would deliver my food as long as I behaved well. So, I stopped overthinking and made my mind focused and calm. I closed my eyes and tried to focus on my heart as I do so I can see a love-shaped blackish-green core with the green rune. I can feel their desire for mana particles…So I started to focus farther than my heart. I can see all of my blood vessels carrying blood and when I am inhaling different colors mana particles are coming inside me without doing anything but my core doesn't absorb them. There were dark particles too, but they were not absorbed. So I started to think of a possible reason…My heart core is not usually one element of the heart core…it has undergone mutation to stay together peacefully so it is not a dark core or life core. It is a combination of dark and life elemen
When I enter the room, I can see Bao in her black cat shape. She is staring intently at someone. I can only see someone lying on the bed and Bao is sitting near his head. When I approached her, she looked back at me with her red bloody eyes and started talking…"At last you are here, you brat!" she said while snickering at me…"Yeah, I am back unlike someone who abandoned her companion to look at some pretty boy, hmph, I must be the prettiest in this world, what do you see in that guy? " I said while staring at her intensely."Not bad, you leveled up your heart core. Now, come here! You can now use your life magic power on him. Maybe he can survive if you aid him. By the way, you have drunk his blood so you must repay it by doing something for him. We vampire race are Nobel. We always repay what we owe to others." She said while looking at me seriously."Ok, I will try but I don't know
Bao ran away after giving me a hot potato. I should say a pretty potato who is lying on a pretty elegant bed motionlessly. He has shoulder-length silver hair, and it is scattered all over the place. He should have tied a ponytail. Whatever, it is none of my concern. Although he is pretty, he could never be prettier than me. I really can not accept a boy who is prettier than me and who is a girl. I tried to feel his temperature and he was too hot to touch, so I tried to take away my hand from his forehead, but his hand tightly grabbed mine like he wanted the coldness of my hand. We, vampires, are cold-blooded as we were cursed before, and we kind of exist between living beings and the dead. We can live for a long time unless someone can destroy our life source that is now within my life mirror. I called my maid Rosella and asked her to bring some wet towels and use a manservant to give him a sponge bath. But the problem was, he won't let go of my hand as much as I try. So I had to st
