Elder Blood Witcher 281 Alluding To Alucards

A man with blonde hair, a handsome face and glowing red eyes sits at a desk, reading a huge amount of paperwork and scowling all the while. Sterling Alucard had been having a terrible amount of trouble dealing with the clans lately, he didn't know why but it felt as if something was conspiring against them... This wouldn't normally phase him as such a thing wouldn't be uncommon is vampire n.o.ble society, however, never before had the Belmont family started to interfere in their politics. They generally would stay out of the way and only ask for tributes, these included mostly low tier vampires from the clans, information or wealth... Sterling himself didn't really know why they only wanted vampires and not humans, alas any specific information on the Belmont's is hard if not impossible to acquire.

A few years ago they'd been forced to give one of his daughters as tribute, Katherine. For some reason they wanted her specifically and not his useless son Hacan. His daughter was born blind but could also see in places that others couldn't, one of these being the future. How the Belmont's found out about her? He had not a clue. One thing was for sure though, he'd be hard pressed to find the Dracula Heir without Katherine's prophecies to point him in the right direction.

A vampire runs in sweating and kneels down, "My liege! The mission was a complete failure, only one man escaped and relayed this information, the others all died, your son included." they say while waiting for the eruption.

"WHAT!" there it is the servant muses. "TELL ME, HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!" Sterling shouts, saliva flying through the air as his temper flares.

The vampire waits for a moment before replying, "With the wards breached our group surged forwards intent on ripping apart the remaining Dracula's and acquiring "Her". However, due to an unknown man interfering and slaughtering the majority of our brethren we were unable to subdue Ambrose Dracula, we still do not know what had caused the explosion but from our spies in the wizarding world we are fairly sure Ambrose is dead."

Sterling starts to calm himself at this news, he hadn't told anyone of the blood runes he'd applied to Hacan but he was satisfied that his useless suns sacrifice had defeated one of his greatest enemies. How that monster had gotten himself sealed away still boggled his mind.

Sterling "Is there any information on the man who interfered in our plans?" he asks quietly, linking his fingers on his desk.

His servant shakes his head rapidly, "Unfortunately not sire, the only things we know of him are his amour, weapons of choice, voice and speech pattern. We also know that his weapon is divinely enchanted silver, it seems he's adept at dealing with our kind." he says while trying to think through what they had learned.

Sterling "Divine Silver? This could prove troublesome, we have a pact with the church so they shouldn't be involved... To what degree is the level of it's enchantment?"

"Sire, from what our witness says it would be the same level or higher as the long since destroyed Excalibur."

...

Sterling throws his head back laughing, "HAHAHAHAHA!" this continues for a minute until he suddenly stops, he throws his arm sideways across the table, knocking everything off and causing a tremendous amount of noise. "FATE IS TRYING TO INTERFERE!?!" he shouts as he transforms into a puddle of blood, reforming in-front of his servant and grabbing his neck. "DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I'VE WAITED! ONLY FOR THE BELMONT'S AND NOW THIS MONKEY TO INTERFERE!?! AHH!" he shouts as he throws the vampire at the wall, "If this is G.o.d's will, then we will go against G.o.d, as we always have." he says as he calms himself, he turns and leaves the room to have his wife Velika comfort him.

A couple hours later the couple is resting in a dim room lit by the fireplace, Velika, Talicia's mother looks almost identical to her. Were it not for the higher cheek bones and smaller b.r.e.a.s.t.s, most who'd call them identical twins.

"Husband, are you sure this is the only way to ensure the clans prosperity?" she asks doubtfully.

He nods as her hand runs across his own, he takes a sip of his blood filled goblet, "Our gift of blood manipulation is being diluted while other clans get stronger. Even with supplementing our family with outsider's that have similar abilities we'll not last past the century, especially with the pressure being put on us.

Velika "But do you honestly plan to do that to your own Grand daughter? Even I find what you're suggesting to be incredibly... Distasteful."

Sterling growls, "Just think of it as reparations for Ambrose transgressions, getting sealed away opened us up to a.s.sault from his enemies. Without his presence we were easy pickings, and with our eldest daughter no longer being available as an offering we have struggled ever since.

Velika "Maybe so, but even as vampires we must retain at least some decorum... Perhaps we could wait a couple more years until you make the attempt?" she asks hopefully.

Sterling "No, any longer and she'll start following Ambrose path, once that starts there won't be anyone who can contain her... We need her weak and subservient, even if we have to sever her arms and legs from her body to keep her... Quiet."

Velika frowns and leaves the room, beginning to become sick at the conversation... She was having doubts about her mates sanity at this point, who on earth would consider doing such a thing to a young and innocent girl who also happened to be your Grand Daughter."
