Vol V Chapter 47
A beam of light shone on Simon's face. It turned out that Licht's clothes had been torn apart during the fight, revealing the pendant on his chest. Simon stared blankly at the pendant and gave up attacking. What was going on? Licht opened his eyes and stared at Simon.
Aruka took the opportunity to come behind Simon and slashed at the ball of light with his short sword. The ball was cut into pieces. A beam of light flew out of the ball and entered Simon's body. He screamed and fell to the ground, holding his head in pain. "Ahhhh!"
"Hey, Licht, come here quickly." Aruba hurriedly greeted him.
"Wait a minute." Licht did not know where he got the courage to help Simon up. "How are you? Are you alright?"
"Oh, who are you? What's wrong with me?”Simon held his head and tried hard to recall. Count Dracula seems to have sealed my memories. He has placed my consciousness in the puppet ball. Where was this place? Simon looked around. This was an underground arena.
"Who are you? Why did you come to the Underground Arena?"
Licht said without any wariness,""My name is Licht. Belmont, this is my friend, Aruba.”
"What did you say your name was?" Simon grabbed Licht.
"Licht, what happened to Belmont?”Licht felt a little inexplicable.
"You are from the Belmont family. Do you know Daniel and Belmont?”Simon said excitedly.
"How come you know my father?" Licht was shocked. He didn't expect that there was someone in Demon City who knew his father.
"Father, Daniel is your father.”Simon looked at the boy in front of him emotionally. His trembling hands gently stroked Licht's face.
"You really look like Jessica, child, my precious grandson.”Simon pulled Licht into his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Grand-grandson, y-you're Simon Belmont.”Licht was at a loss. "How is that possible? My grandfather should be in his sixties or seventies. How can you be so young?”
"I've been bewitched and haven't aged since I was twenty-eight.”Simon explained.
"Wow, this is amazing." Aruya couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when he came to their side.
"Y-you?" It was only then that Simon noticed the boy who looked exactly like Dracula. "Who is Dracula to you? What's your name?"
"Hello, my name is Aruda and I'm a friend of Licht. As for Dracula, he's not my friend."”
How could these two look so alike? However, now was not the time to care about this matter.
Simon patted his grandson's shoulder and said,""Licht, what are you doing in Demon City?”
"My brother and I came to Demon City to investigate.”
"Brother, you have a brother." Simon said excitedly again.”
"Yes, my brother's name is Zuster. He's the current successor of the Holy Whip.”Licht said proudly.
"My grandson is the heir to the Holy Whip.”Simon laughed happily.
"Don't be so happy." Licht poured a bucket of cold water on him." Zust never acknowledged you as his grandfather. I can't admit it either."
"Why Licht?" Aruba asked curiously.
"It's because of him that my brother and I have been discriminated against and ridiculed since we were young. Especially when my brother was often bullied to protect me, we all hated him.”Licht glared at Simon angrily.
It turns out that they suffered so much because of me. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't want to. I-I had no choice.”Simon choked.
"What exactly happened?" asked Aruba.
Simon first helped Licht sit on the steps of the arena, and then the three sat down.
"This matter has to start from decades ago.”Simon was lost in his memories.
Back then, I was still a Gold Medal Blood Hunter of the Demon Hunters Association. At the age of 18, he became the heir of the Holy Whip. At the age of 20, he was already the most outstanding leader of the Belmont family, known to everyone. He wanted to destroy all vampires. I put all my energy into hunting vampires and neglected my family.
My dedication to my job also angered the Blood Breeds. Because of me, their numbers were greatly reduced. Finally, when I was twenty-four years old, these Blood Breeds united to take revenge on me. On one hand, they sent many Vampires to kill me, and on the other hand, they attacked my family. When I finally got home, all I saw was the corpse of my wife, Jessica, and my son, Daniel, who was only four years old at the time. He was crying and holding the necklace I gave to his wife.
Simon picked up the pendant on Licht's chest and said," This is it. This is what I gave your grandma Jessica.”
Licht held the pendant in his hand and played with it carefully. "I see. Father gave me this necklace. No wonder you were stunned there just now. Fortunately, I brought him along. Otherwise, he would have been killed by you.”Simon couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this.
"Simon, hurry up and continue. I really want to know what happened after that.”Aru urged.
Later, I didn't know why those vampires would let my son go. I didn't want to know either. I only knew that they killed my wife, the person I loved deeply. I vented my anger on killing vampires, killing them as soon as I saw them. In the end, I decided to challenge Dracula because he was the most powerful and famous of all the vampires.
I still remember that night when I came to Demon City alone and challenged them outside the city.
"Dracula, you bastard, come out quickly. Simon from the Demon Hunters Association is here to challenge you.”
I easily dealt with the soldiers guarding the city gate. Then, a black-robed man flew down from the city. "If you want to challenge my master, you have to go through me first.”
I fought with him. That guy's scythe was too powerful, it shook my hands numb. Luckily I had the Holy Whip to block it so I wouldn't be cut off by his scythe.
However, I was indeed quite shocked at that time. I didn't expect Dracula's servant to be so powerful even before he appeared. I used all my strength to dance the Holy Whip. The black-robed man brandished his scythe and turned it into a ball of light and shadow around me. The powerful airflow made it difficult for me to breathe. He hooked his scythe towards my legs. I hurriedly jumped to dodge. I didn't expect him to be able to reverse the scythe so quickly and use the back of his scythe to attack my chest. I took the Holy Whip and tried my best to block it, but the powerful force still sent me flying.
"Pfft." I spat out a mouthful of blood. My ribs were shattered from the blow. I was in so much pain that my vision turned black. Even breathing hurt. The black-robed man came in front of me and dragged me into Demon City.
"Ah, let me go. Mmmm." My injuries were very serious and I was dragged by him. It was so painful that I was sweating all over and fainted.
Later on, I found out that the guy who defeated me was him.。。。。。
"Alubis, right? Ha, I guessed it a long time ago. I didn't expect that sick ghost to be so powerful in the past.”Aruba said enviously.
"Yes, it's Alubis. He's also the Grim Reaper, but he's not a sick ghost.”Simon looked at Aruba in confusion.
"That was in the past. The current Alubis is unbelievably weak. He falls sick at every turn, and he even told me personally that he can't lift his scythe anymore.”
"Why hasn't Reynold recovered from his injuries? That's impossible. My grandson is already so old. His injuries should have healed long ago." Simon was very worried about him. After all, he was the one who saved this guy.
"Who's Reinaldo?" Arucha asked with a frown.”
"Oh." Simon hurriedly explained. "Reinaldo is the Alubis you speak of. He was originally a human, but I saved him by chance, and he became the true successor of Death. However, the one who fought with me back then was his teacher, the real Death.”
"Ah!" Licht scratched his head hard. "What are you guys talking about? I'm confused."
"Yeah, I don't understand either." Aruba complained.
"This matter is too complicated. In the future, you can ask Alubis yourself when you see him.”
"Sure," Licht clapped happily. "It should have been like this a long time ago. I'm not interested in listening to the story of Death.”
When I slowly woke up, I was already lying on the bed. A beautiful woman was sitting in front of my bed. She was bandaging my wound. I tried to get up, but it affected my wound again.
"Ah!" My chest was wrapped in bandages. I held my chest and panted, but I didn't dare to breathe hard. The pain pressing on my heart made me sweat like rain.
"Don't move." The woman's gentle voice reached my ears.
"Your ribs are broken and you need to rest well. If you move around, you won't be able to grow well.”She pressed me against the bed.
This woman seemed to have a natural dignity, and I actually lay down obediently. "Don't worry, I'll get Dracula to treat you again. He's just a little petty sometimes. He'll be fine in two days.”
She ordered Dracula? Who was this woman? Why was she so calm when she talked about the terrifying demon?
"Who are you?" I couldn't help but feel curious.
She wiped the sweat off my forehead and fed me some water. "My name is Sonya, Count Dracula's wife. I'm a human.”
"You, cough cough." Her words shocked me so much that I choked on the water and coughed non-stop.
Song Ya quickly patted my back. Dracula's wife? And a human? Why did she save me?
"You were forced by Dracula. You want me to save you?”I guessed.
"Hehe." She kept laughing. "Dracula is the most outstanding man I've ever met. Why should I leave him? I don't need you to save me. On the contrary, I want to save you.”
"Humph." I turned my head and said," I don't need the help of the devil. I will kill Dracula sooner or later."”
"Why?" Song Ya looked at me with wide eyes." Does my husband have a grudge against you?”
"He's a vampire, and vampires aren't good people. My Jessica, my…。。”I was so emotional that I couldn't make a sound.
"I see." Sonya held my hand and comforted me." I know that some vampires do kill humans, but not all vampires are like that. There are vampires who can live in peace with humans. My husband Dracula is a good man. He won't kill humans."”
"Haha, ahem." I laughed at her rudely, but I ended up hurting myself.
The wound was in pain. "Dracula is a good person? Everyone knew that he had the title of Bloodthirsty Prince. He would be a good person, hehe.”
Bang! The door was pushed open. "Madam, don't waste your breath on this kid. Let me throw him out.”The black-robed man appeared once again and pulled me up in a fit of rage.
"Ouch." I curled up in pain.
"Alubis, what are you doing? Let him go." Sonya stopped Aleubis's violence. She grabbed Aleubis 'hand and let me go. I slid down weakly.
" It's exactly because of your behavior that humans misunderstand you," Song Ya scolded sternly.”
"Let them misunderstand. I don't have to explain to the humans.”A dignified voice sounded, followed by a tall and cold middle-aged man.
"Darling, why are you here?"
"Master." The black-robed Alubis immediately lost his arrogance.
I heard their greetings and realized that this white-haired, red-eyed man was Count Dracula himself.
"Songya, why do you care so much? Just let this guy fend for himself.”Dracula looked at me disdainfully.
"Hmph, I don't need the care of demons. One day, I'll eradicate you evil demons from the human world.”I glared at him without showing any weakness.
"I've done all kinds of evil things. Tell me what evil things I've done.”Dracula raised his eyebrows.
"Y-you suck blood, kill people, and even turn people into vampires.”I angrily recounted the evil deeds of vampires.
"Oh, you've seen what I did?”
I said angrily and anxiously,"How can humans see you doing this?"”
"Is that so?" Dracula smiled contemptuously. "Alright, I'll let you stay here and see how I harm humans.”After saying that, he walked to my side.
His hand emitted a white light. I thought he was going to torture me and hurriedly retreated. "W-what do you want?"
Song Ya held me down and said," Don't be afraid. He's going to treat you. Don't move."”
The white light rolled in front of my chest and my injuries immediately improved. I couldn't believe my eyes. A vampire was healing a Blood Hunter, but the obvious improvement in my body made me believe it.
"Alright, baby, I've treated him as you said. We can go now, right?”Dracula hugged Sonya.
"Have a good rest then." Songya did not forget to remind me. "Just treat this place as your own home. You can come and go at any time to observe the operation of Demon City.”
I lay there in disbelief. Alubis came to my side and said,"I'm telling you, don't try anything funny. I'll be watching you.”He revealed his skull and stared at me.
"Ah, what kind of monster are you?" I hurriedly sent out a palm strike and Aliubis easily retreated, calmly dodging my attack. Then, he left the room.
I sat alone in the room, not knowing what to do next. However, after I calmed down and thought about it, I felt that this was a good opportunity to infiltrate the enemy's inner circle and understand their secrets. Therefore, I stayed behind to spy on Dracula's secrets.。。。。。
