Chapter 152: Chapter 151: A new story: preface
"Rein never in one million tis thought he was going to have vampires serve especially one he couldn’t even beat he was very much awed and in his head he was already planning how he was going make effective use of them, Rein is not usually like that but before them stood a draconic deity.
’But how do I explain to them that I am a deity and not a god, even I don’t know the difference between them, perhaps it is just safe to play like this along with them until I figure out more about my race and class’ Rein sighed, ’but I am sure this is not the treasure she was talking about, no way she’d be expecting
to make strong vampires like this serve . Ahhh, it would be wise to just check around, or ask..’
Rein grinned, ’I know exactly how to ask.’
"Hey guys everyone of you know sothing extrely important, like a very valued treasure that is here, in this room, maybe it belongs to your boss maybe it belongs to this room, but original reason here is to find that thing.
The last and clumsy vampire Heliot quickly jumped into the conversation, "oh you sir but be talking about the liegeon."
"....the liege...."
Voss glanced sharply at Heliot and faced Rein, "I’m sorry sir, I will give you anything but that"
"I need that thing in order to get my powers back, at least to a reasonable extent"
Voss stiffened gaze slowly cald and he looked like he was in confusion.
"There are list of things I have to get, look here is the map, you see I didn’t just co here to fight with you all, Rein stretched the map to Voss.
Voss read through the map and confird Rein’s words then he spoke, "but sir, this place, the final destination is sowhere you shouldn’t go to, atleast not now when you have not fully regained all your power as a god."
"There will be soone waiting there for , besides there is a favorite person that I must save" Rein’s gaze stiffened.
Voss stared into his gaze, "is that person a human?"
"Yes" Rein replied without a flinch.
Voss smiled, "You are just like my master, he had so much interest in humans, perhaps this is fate"
’Please don’t do that fate thing, I’m literally deceiving you. Well as far as I’m able to get back his master he should be able to forget even if I deceived him.’
"Okay sir, I will give you the liegeon is an artifact that stores my master accumulated power as he sleeps, and when he wakes up he the artifact automatically supplents him back with all the energy, but like you said, waking the master is the most important thing now, I will give it to you and will help you find the rest, while the other vampire stays back and protect the master, what do you say?" Voss placed his hand on his chest and bowed his head a little"
The others wore a very sad face, no denying it but they also wanted to go out of the cave and see the outside world for a little while, but Voss deed them useless and to be a bother.
"That’s very thoughtful of you, too much people following
will be hard to explain when I am undercover as a Human."
’Wow this man is amazing, he ie even pretending to be a dragon"
Voss himself went deep into the darkness of the room and in a while later he ca out with a chained pendant. That bad blue glowing orb when it is opened, it was beautiful and enchanting even Rein was enchanted by his beauty.
Voss took it back, "No master, you must not fall for it charm, let it serve you, only then will it give and not take, naturally the charm has no effect on vampires."
"Okay, I heard you ..." Rein collected the neck chain from his hand, "well let’s go"
"Ah yes sir, thank you for giving
this chance"
The others glared at him as he followed Reinard’s back without looking back and the wolves followed behind.
Far away soone that has previously t Rein, spectated and smiled, he whispered, "he really is an interest boy. I should get going to the summit too, looks like fate will make us et again." The man jumped and flew away.
Rein quickly glanced back but looked away.
"What is the matter sir?"
"Nothing, Mr Voss, I was just being cautious in this mountain.
"Don’t worry I am extra cautious than any man can be, i will always protect you as far as I am by your side, and till I repay the debt I owe you sir I will always protect you" he bowed.
The journey into the deep mountain together.
***********
anwhile the expedition have begun since almost a day and Rein’s clone has been doing will so far considering he’s activity for the past day but
He talked less, he didn’t show off, nor communicated with others he was only used to giving definite and single word answers which was like Rein but not exactly like Rein, it felt like he was forcing himself to be Rein, but Sigrid was less concerned whatever happened she trust that it must have been Rein that did it, so she just shielded the faults of the clone and gave excuses for the clone each ti Hagar asked, "why are you so clumsy today, perhaps with all that talkyou are just another mama’s boy"
The clone smiled and blushed every ti Sigrid covered up for him which was very unlike Rein, she had to conclude on her hypothesis based on her observation that this is not Rein. But she kept protecting him anyways.
The cover was about to be blown, Hagar seems to have been eying both of them seriously, every single second.
Then the third night Rein sat down at the bonnefire to warm up himself as the deeper they got into the dungeon the colder it becos, they have been fighting small fries since and the soldiers have been leaving it to the student while they provided supported. It was all Hagar’s idea, since Rein could not yet able to make a connection with his clone there was no way he could understand what was going on, all he had to do was just leave it to Aze’s hand.
The clone sat with solemn eyes and looked like it was in thought as Hagar ca, Hagar sat down, the clone Reinard was about to stand up when Hagar stopped him.
"Hey, you will sit down here and talk to ."
"And if I don’t?"
"I’ll deem that as a disrespect and I will punish you accordingly. Don’t worry I just want to ask you so questions, it seems that I have pushed you away with my attitude, as a student you should be my priority, especially when you have the potential to beco a future union leader..."
The Rein just shared a small fragnt of Rein consciousness since the shadow casting was still a level 2 skill. He smiled a bit, it was the thing that the environnt will do to even a doll that has been given the chance to taste affection for even a few seconds, they were bound to get greedy.
It was impossible for Rein’s clone to not for once think for itself, want to make choices for itself, want to see how things would turn out if he did it this way or that way. It was bound to happen, if Rein was a deity, his alter ego was bound to awaken even when provided with very limited conditions.
The clone opened it’s mouth and talked, "I’m sorry, but I really want to keep my distance from you..."
Hagar squinted his eyes, ’sothing is of, that brat would never apologize, his pride soars the skies like that of a dragon’
Hagar sighed, "...is that it, I guess I forgot that even a proud kid is still a kid, I shouldn’t have treated you harshly like that but I’m sorry...wait there’s no way I should be sorry, when its a fake. At once a knife revealed itself on the clones neck and he began to vomit blood, the neck started bleeding profusely as he fell to his knee, he glared at Hagar in the eyes, as he said slowly while disappearing into the hair.
Hagar frowned, "this bastard... he fooled !!"
"What do you an fooled you, I’ve been here the entire ti, watching you. Tsk tsk" Another Rein ca out of the darkness but this ti it presence was choky and cumberso he had never felt this strong presence from Rein, even though there was a little resemblance in the presence, thus one was much stronger.
He widened his eyes, "Don’t tell him he grew stronger while deceiving , for the past three days... but there’s no way he would grow strong like this under just three days... did he have a catalyst, did he stumble on luck while in the dungeon" Hagar was completely lost as he tried to comprehend the Rein standing before him.
"Did he have a catalyst, did he stumble on a rock while in the dungeon...did he this... did he that, all humans are the sa when the experience sothing bigger than them."
’Ops...would father had said that?’
’Keep going Azes... I never expected you to take care of it like this indeed you are a strong dragon, you can even polymorph now’ Rein communicated with Azes, as distance was not a communication to them.
’Yes Father, I just learnt it but I can’t go on for long’
"So Hagar do you want to fight ?" Multiple balls of fire in a circle appeared at Rein’s back and began to spin very fast.
’What?! This is not just ordinary fire magic, at least they are a level 7, how co? was this guy hiding it all from ?, this bastard was he holding back on
from the very beginning... how dare he?’ Hagar began to shake with his head bent down, he clenched his fist so much that he was ready to go all out.
"Dammit, I wish the real
was here"
Hagar turned, "we shall see after the dungeon expedition, you’ve got an offense"
’Father, he says he wants to see you after the expedition’
’...there will be no Hagar after the expedition, I will personally see it through’ The Rein in the dungeon smiled as Hagar turned back and began to leave likewise Rein where he his smiled as he thought of a good job Azes did, "Now he won’t be able to suspect at all"
"I’m sorry sir did you say sothing?" Voss asked as he journeyed with Rein on one of the direwolves.
"Nothing... do how are you enjoying your ride?"
"Quite alright sir, it’s fluffy and beautiful, it just feels a little bit weird since we Ixalan vampires do not move with mounts"
"Beautiful, tell
about your race later when all is settled."
"Yes sir"
there was no way his friends wouldn’t have known.
