Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

I looked back at what I've accomplished in this little life I've had.

A second life filled with many new things I've experienced.

Despite having explored the vastness of the universe, despite having gone through galaxies, planets, and had met many people through my previous life journey…

I never meet with such emotions, or perhaps… in those times, I simply didn't let myself experience them.

Despite always having them available, despite always having the option to experience them… I ended up neglecting them.

Perhaps because I was too weak to be able to compromise again. Maybe… I wasn't being someone strong, I was just being weak… I didn't wanted to show the emotions that made a person vulnerable after all.

But I guess it could be said that, just as Eleanora pointed out, I wasn't becoming a new person in this life.

I was simply… discovering my true self.

"You children are really a handful… At long last you've stopped crying! Sheesh… Well, now that you've all made up, Chris, Eric, you better make sure to repay the favor that Blake has given to you and your parents!" said Eleanora.

"Eleanora, don't get too ahead of yourself…" I sighed.

"But you have to ask them for that! After all what you did cost you and Erika a lot, didn't it? Those potions from Erika's father… didn't they cost a lot of gold coins each? But he gave them to you for free!" said Eleanora.

"Right…" I said.

"And well, you also used all your mana multiple times and more…" said Eleanora.

"Hm… I just felt it was not the right time to ask for it." I said.

However, it seemed that the two children agreed with Eleanora, as they nodded at her words.

"You're right!" said Chris.

"Yeah… Blake, please ask us anything!" said Eric.

"…"

I looked at the two boys, their eyes were blazing with conviction.

Erika looked at me expecting me to say something.

I infused Qi into my own eyes as I glared down on them.

Life was overflowing from their little bodies.

I also felt a lot of Mana.

They got talent.

Fine, this will do.

"Alright. I will take you two as my disciples." I said.

"D-Disciples?!" asked Chris.

"W-What?" asked Eric.

"Y-You mean… you'll teach them?!" asked Erika.

"Technically speaking, you're already my disciple, Erika, the first one. So you got an advantage over the two." I said.

"M-Me? Am I a good disciple?" she asked.

"The best I've ever had!" I said with a smile.

Erika's beautiful eyes shone brightly in happiness.

I've been teaching Erika Martial Arts this entire time, she had also been learning Mana Manipulation from me, and it could be possible for her to conjure real magic like the ones I can do, as long as she develops enough Mana Manipulation.

This world lacks the conventional Magic I know about, so it would be a great "cheat" to my disciples if I teach them these types of magic conjuration. Of course, everyone has an affinity in specific, but technically, everyone can use every element.

The ability to use every element of magic is what makes a powerful wizard. If you can use them all, combine them, and use every element when it is needed, you become someone truly formidable. I had already showcased this when I healed my father and then with the others.

"I know of special techniques. I have learned them on my own, and I've learned many other things… I don't want to go into detail, and as my friends, I want you two to keep this a secret, the same way Erika does… I will teach you ways to grow stronger that you never thought possible, and you'll become my disciples. As my disciples, you better not disappoint me, alright?" I asked.

The two kids seemed excited of what was to come, a life filled with training and hardships, but that might help them grow stronger faster than they had ever thought.

"You don't resent what happened to your parents?" I asked.

"Ah…"

"That's…"

"Do you know who did this? It wasn't just a wild beast." I said.

"It wasn't?" asked Chris.

"They said… a giant with red skin… I had never heard of a monster like that before." Said Eric.

"That's a demon. You know demons, right?" I asked.

"Demons!" said Chris.

"F-From the tower?! But… they shouldn't be around, right?" asked Eric.

"After all, the towers were… sealed long ago, the demons stopped coming out…" said Chris.

"But I know that there are demons that escaped and survived outside, right? Are those… the ones that hurt my uncle?" asked Eric.

"Exactly, and perhaps… I don't know how but I have the feeling that there might be something else going on…" I sighed.

"Something else?" asked Chris.

"What… could it be?" asked Eric.

"This world… everything… it might change in the future more than you think. For that future, all of you must grow stronger, there is no time to waste, you know?" I asked.

The two kids looked at me with surprise, looking at the floor after that.

The two clenched their fists and moved almost at the same time.

"Okay… I'll do it… I've seen you use some strange powers too… Can you really teach me to use them?" asked Chris.

"You can?" asked Eric.

"Of course I can, I will teach them to you because you're my friends." I said.

Erika smiled at the scene, she seemed very happy that we made up.

I was honestly happy as well.

I quickly jumped out of bed, as I felt a sudden change in my entire body without realizing it before.

I felt… limber? I also felt as if there was way more Mana flowing through my body, and my muscles had strengthened.

Could the things I did yesterday have somehow helped me develop?

Ah… It is true. My stats had increased. Could this be because I also consumed a lot of Spirit Orbs? Alongside pushing myself to my own limits…

Even without fighting, I still grew stronger out of such a situation.

In a way, it was a challenge by itself, I have to admit it…
