To Lukas who knew next to nothing about Vampire Overlords, he couldn't help but feel like he was unlucky to get a weapon without its abilities being known.
But there was sothing he should be able to do right?
It seed like he wasn't able to manifest the VR System that well due to it appearing only every now and then–but this System had to do sothing now that he acquired his first special weapon, right?
When the weapon was placed in his hands, it felt cold and tallic to the touch at first but then there was a certain hum.
"Did you hear that?" Lukas asked.
"Hear what?" Viktoria Cadis raised a brow. "Are you hearing things? Is the weapon whispering into your ears."
"What?" Lukas tossed a strange look into Viktoria's direction.
"Well, I did read that so blacksmiths are so impressive that they can pour the heart and soul of their victims into the blade."
"That's…" Lukas didn't know what to say.
"I do think it's important but you just have to figure out what it can do by yourself."
"Why hasn't anyone ever learned it?" Lukas asked.
"Sotis, when the weapon is in the wrong hands and a person tries to activate its hidden features–it can also attack and kill its user. Once again based on stories, but it was not worth risking."
"Excuse ?" Lukas made a face. "There's sothing like that and yet you gave this weapon to ?"
"I an there's a reason why most of the relics are on display. It's dangerous to use them if you're not from the sa bloodline or are incapable of wielding it–but I had a hunch."
"A hunch?"
"That you'll be able to survive." Viktoria grinned.
"And you can say that because…?"
"My special eye can tell. I have a really good feeling–"
"Please don't believe her words. She can hardly use her bloodline at all–please return that to its display." Serena said. "Or if you wish to use it, please don't try tinkering with it."
"... I'd like to keep it." Lukas decided.
He wasn't usually a risk-taker such as this, but would it really be possible for him to endanger himself with a weapon that belonged to soone else? Maybe it was guarded jealously in the past, but would a Vampire really curse a weapon to attack a user that wasn't related to him or her?
The answer was yes–but contrary to Serena, Lukas wanted to believe in Viktoria for so reason. The way that her eye glead was sohow sothing that triggered within him.
He just couldn't explain it.
"Alright, then you can use it." Serena said. "As for the other weapons, I'll have it delivered to you in the morning. I presu that Theodore will visit you tomorrow to pick you up and discuss the route you will be taking."
"Thank you."
***
So many things happened in one night that as Lukas returned ho, he couldn't believe it himself.
"The anniversary party, Lily and needing to find a cure for her due to the accident–this birthmark thing and the truth about the original Lukas and then finally eting the owner of Blood Works and getting this weapon."
He held the dagger in his hand and returned to his apartnt room.
Lukas was more than excited to just get back into the bed and actually rest after the incredible fatigue that he had experienced after dealing with one event into another and maybe enjoy the bed as much as possible, but then he found sothing.
Or found no one.
Chaerin was gone.
Lukas' eyes widened and he knew that he should contact her–but before he could try calling her via bracer or sothing else, he saw sothing on top of the bed.
He approached and picked up the piece of paper, finding a note written for him.
"Lukas, I don't know where you went–but I had to talk with my sister since I'm leaving tomorrow with you. I'll see you in the morning, alright? Love, Chaerin."
The note made him sigh a little, but there was nothing he could do about it. It was easy for Lukas to make decisions in the past since he didn't have any obligations to anyone or had any close family.
But Chaerin had a sister so it was actually fair for her to say her goodbyes.
"I was planning to snuggle close to Chaerin so I could really get so sleep and rest. But this kind of changes things for ."
Lukas looked around the apartnt and found one of the first few items that he found when he first arrived in the world. The laptop itself seed like it was ordinary, but the fact that he could use the System with it seed to say it was far more special.
He took the laptop to his bed and placed the ornate dagger beside him at first. And then he started to check around the window screen for anything special at all.
It had a simple digital background at first–sothing in the typical blue, but then there was sothing that caught his eye.
There was a butterfly insignia at the bottom of the screen with the letters F and I on each wing. Lukas was willing to dismiss it at first, maybe pay it heed as sothing that was rely a design and yet he clicked his tongue.
"I… I've seen that sowhere." Lukas closed his eyes and tried to recall from where.
"Co on brain, you're designed to be so kind of top-tier Vampire brain now so mories are supposed to be a piece of cake. Rember—rember, wait fuck."
Lukas' eyes widened.
The mory finally ca to his mind.
"T-that was the insignia at the top of the End User License Agreent!" Lukas exclaid and then finally laughed. He slapped a hand over his face and shook his head. "I can't believe that actually worked, saying that my Vampire brain should be able to rember. Good job brain, but what does F.I. and butterflies an?"
