last update Last Updated: 2023-01-23 21:35:20

"You’re in a serene mode today. Did you forget what happened last night?" Allen can’t help but exude sarcasm after another bizarre occurrence to his master.

If it were a normal day, Elijah would have laughed and asked who the master and servant were based on the way he speaks, but he isn't bothered today. Elijah ignored him and continued with his reading. It was the book that he happened to bring in panic after he had attacked Alice out of sudden bloodlust.

Allen heaved a sigh and approached Elijah, "Master, isn’t what happened to you already a sign that you should get this over with?" He voiced out his worry.

Alice Peterson was the final person he had to kill in order to break his curse. He'd do it himself if he could, but he'd seen that she's not a low-level hunter, and Elijah said it wouldn't work unless he killed her himself. It was annoying, but he had no choice but to let his master do all the work and wish for his safety every single time. He has never been this bothered before

    There was a short period of silence. Elijah doesn’t know if that was because of a realization or if Allen just doesn’t know what to say."Can you just stay, master? You spent your life alone and suffering, but it doesn’t always have to be that way. You have me, I will stay with you forever. You don’t have to leave anymore." It was Allen’s true, selfish wish. It was the only way he could see everything falling into place. The constant urge to feed on blood was a huge downside of being what they are, but other than that, it wasn’t really that bad.Allen is sure that he wouldn’t be able to live a better life if he stayed human. He would live a dull life with no purpose at all. He had witnessed and learned so many things as what he was right now, and he found his purpose by serving Elijah.He hummed in response, "That’s a tempting offer. Only that I never wanted that to be your fate.""But what would I do without you? Would I lose purpose again?"Elijah heaved a sigh. When he saved Allen

    Alice promptly started the meeting as if nothing had happened. She delegated their tasks and prompted the whole duration of what they would do before they could get the chance to kill their target. There would be at least thirty hunters that would accompany them inside and fifty hunters on standby to aid the mission, considering the scale of the mission. The Grandfather had turned enough humans to make an army of loyal vampire soldiers. The only question left is how many vampires would appear at that party."Man, how come this party is grander than anything I’ve attended to when there’s barely any guest." Art mumbled after confirming the number of guests. It was definitely grander than intended. He had worked in catering and customer service in the past and this was the grandest he’ll ever organize."The guests belong to the VVVIP society. Of course, anyone who wanted to impress people like them would spend a fortune to do so. It’ s just upsetting that we personally know some of them.

    Allen immediately checked on Elijah the next day, and he was still resting. Vampires don’t essentially fall asleep, but they could rest their bodies, especially when they have dealt huge damage to their bodies. It wasn’t unusual for Elijah to do this, as he still mimics humans. He usually gets up after a few hours, but this time, he was really recuperating his body, hence rendering it vulnerable. It was a critical time for him to do this, as there were a lot of risks around them all of a sudden. When vampires do this, their bodies enter a deep, coma-like state. Their breathing slows down drastically. It was a vampire’s way to conserve blood and use it to recover. Humans could easily assume that a vampire is dead because of this.Allen assumes that it might be the reason why vampires are portrayed as creatures that sleep in coffins in a lot of media."A normal bed would work though…" He mumbled and let his master have his well deserved rest.In Elijah’s case, he isn’t severely injured

    "But?" He encouraged him to go on."When I finally got to stand outside and bathe in sunlight... I felt a connection to my humanity that I thought I had already lost. For a moment, I feel so free. And then I remembered something else too. It was a voice telling me to live, no matter what. It’s the voice of someone I don’t remember but I’m sure is part of my past. At that moment, I felt curiosity that I had never felt about who I am when I was still human." He lowered his gaze, feeling guilty about the words coming out of his mouth.Elijah’s forehead crumpled, "And? I don’t see anything wrong with that.""Just yesterday, I was bravely announcing that I would be on your side forever. But a little freedom, and I’m already hesitating. I feel so guilty about it. I apologize, master." While his gaze was fixed on the ground, he admitted.Elijah shook his head and sighed. He is sure that Allen was feeling that because of their master and servant bond. He feels sorry for the child for feeling

    "Are you okay?" It was the first question that went out of Clarisse’s lips after seeing Alice voluntarily walking in towards her office. What happened in the hunter’s quarters was quickly reported to her, but Alice dashed off even before she could step out of her office.Alice paid no attention to her worry and helped herself to sit. She’s still feeling dizzy from anemia, and having to remember a huge chunk of memory from her past life doesn’t feel good either."You should worry more about Klaver. He’s the one that was strangled and not me." She experienced another simulated death, but nothing that wasn’t unusual to her.Clarisse firmly closed her eyes. She might die first out of pure worry."You were fed on by a vampire. I should have known." She admitted. Alice hates hospitals or simply being laid in a hospital bed. Of course she wouldn’t voluntarily bring herself into their infirmary.Alice didn’t really go to Clarisse’s office again, just to make her realize that she wasn’t fit to

    "Alice?" The twins exclaimed after seeing her and Black Lotus enter.Clarisse pointed on the available bed, "Stay there. I’ll talk to the doctor." Alice simply followed her order while the twins froze on their spots. They have no idea what is happening, but they are sure that Black Lotus is in a bad mood.Kate turned her chair in Alice’s direction after Clarisse left, "What happened? Why is Black Lotus angry at you?" Kate had to ask, as she hasn’t seen Clarisse this pissed off. She could almost see a dark aura radiating from her, if that wasn’t a stretch.Alice crossed her arms, "Why are you even surprised? Isn’t that my special skill?"Kate and Klaver looked at each other knowingly. They knew that something was up, but Alice always pushed them out of the loop."If that’s because of me, I’ll talk to Ms. Clarisse." Klaver volunteered. He doesn’t think a few bruises were a big deal at all. But he had seen it clearly. Alice was afraid earlier. Her eyes were in a different time and place,

    Allen couldn’t stop himself from looking around. He had only seen the outside world during mornings in the television or internet. It is indeed very lively compared to going out at night or in the afternoon. He doesn’t know what to expect, but he doesn’t regret going out. Some people are looking at him weirdly as he was wearing a jacket in the middle of a hot day, but he didn’t really care."What do you think?" Elijah asked with fascination in his eyes. He hadn’t seen Allen this excited before. Allen still needs to wear thick clothing to get out, but he will slowly get used to it soon."It’s… a bit overwhelming." He admitted. Everything felt so lively, and he wasn’t really used to that. The world quickly changed, and it wasn’t as peaceful as it was at night, but being out in the morning is still very different.Elijah smiled, "You’ll get used to it soon. It’s better that you always go outside so your body gets used to it. Now, do you have anywhere else that you wanted to be?""Not par

    He decided to enter a bookstore instead. There were a variety of supplies sold at the store, like art supplies and several office supplies. Elijah enjoys writing, so they have several stuff in their house. They usually compel some humans to buy and deliver them any goods they require, in exchange for payment, of course. Aside from several supplies needed at home, they didn't need much. His life revolved mostly around the houses they currently live in, as they move every now and then.Elijah had encouraged him to have some hobbies like art and music. He learned piano, violin, and several other instruments introduced to him by Elijah. He wasn't exceptionally good at any of the instruments, but he wasn't bad either. Art was another story he didn’t wish to discuss because of how awful he was at it. He just did everything to pass the time by but but nothing really stuck with him.Allen simply assumed that he wasn’t cut out to be an artist in any form. He went out to the store and continue

    "Why are we called here?" Klaver asked as he arrived late and had no idea why they were called by Black Lotus again. Karina shrugged, "Not sure. Maybe we’ll get a new mission?" They all went inside Clarisse’s office with anticipation. None of them did anything wrong lately, so they were confident that they were not here to be scolded by their head. Clarisse took a moment to look at each of them. They even held a birthday party for Alice and Carl the other day. She saw how happy they were. It’s just a shame that Alice couldn’t live as a human, even if their circumstances had already changed. "Did we mess up again? Please don’t tell me we’d have to attend trainee classes again." Art spoke up after he couldn’t take the silence anymore. She smiled, "No. Unless you did something else I wasn’t aware of." "We haven’t broken any rules… lately." Carl promptly answered as he was tired of being reprimanded. She pointed at the envelope Alice left for her group, "I called you guys to give yo

    "You need to feed." Elijah kept looking at Alice. She was pale as she refused to drink any human blood. Louise continued to alternately look at Alice and Elijah. Alice was his enemy one moment, and now she appears in their house as a vampire. She demanded to join Elijah in fighting off the purebloods, which Louise still thinks is a suicide mission, but he has no abilities to stop his master or Alice. "I’m still Alice, and my hunter pride is still intact. I’ve been alive longer than you think. I could handle this." She simply refuses to drink human blood, even if everything in her is screaming to feed. Unfortunately, even a human soul couldn’t maintain her body as a human. Her body naturally went back to its natural form right after her mind fully awakened. Her abilities came back to her almost immediately. "Why are you insisting on coming anyway?" Elijah doesn’t know how he would treat Alice now. He remembers everything, along with all the feelings that he shared with Alathea. They

    "Alice, Alice, wake up." Elijah had already gotten the location from Black Lotus and also received the blood flowers he requested. He was on his way to the given location when he felt a very ominous feeling. Instead, he rushed his way towards Alice’s house and found her unconscious with the charm he had gifted her on the ground. He checked if she was still breathing before lifting her towards the bed. Elijah has been trying to wake him up for five minutes straight, but to no avail. By experience, she looked like she was remembering her memories again. He doubts that the doctors would find anything wrong if he brought her to the hospital. "Alice!" He exclaimed and finally opened her eyes, and Elijah saw her eyes turn red, as of a vampire. She gasped and lifted herself from the bed. Elijah was staring at her with complete shock in his eyes. "Who the hell turned you into a vampire?!" There was fear in his eyes. He had killed all of her past lives, but now that he didn’t have to kill h

  • WITH ALL MY LIVES   CHAPTER 153: FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN

    Humans either worshiped or feared them. They called them gods, not knowing that their belief was the one that strengthened them. At the same time, losing belief in creatures like her greatly weakens them. The more people forget about them, the sooner they cease to exist. She has existed for thousands of years. Time was fleeting, and so many things have changed over time. Her existence was fueled, not by belief but by fear. No one knows what she truly was, unlike other "gods" that humans have encountered. Instead, she was born out of fear of the unknown. It morphed in her over time until she developed a taste for human blood. Despite her efforts, she couldn’t stop what she had become, like all the monsters they had imagined. Before she knew it, she became a creature that survived on human blood and fear, and yet she still fights for her own instincts whenever she can. Alathea, or at least that is what she calls herself at the present time, quickly walked on a shade to protect herself

    "Why am I called at such an ungodly hour?" She complained as she entered Clarisse’s office. Black Lotus didn’t tell her the reason why she was hailed, but she hoped that it was for a great purpose. "Alice, why are you here early?" Carl asked with curious eyes. "I was called by Black Lotus. Why are you here too?" She threw back the question. Carl pointed at Clarisse’s office, "She called me too. What is up? She didn’t tell me what this was about." Alice didn’t answer and walked ahead. She was now certain that it wasn’t about Elijah. Carl wouldn’t be called if it was. "Wait for me!" He exclaimed and caught up. They both entered the office and were welcomed by on of Clarisse’s secretary. She pointed at the door, "She’s been expecting you. Feel free to head inside." Alice immediately figured out that something was happening. Still, she went ahead and opened the door. "Happy birthday!" She heard party poppers and confetti flying over her and Carl. Alice looked at them with utter co

    Alice went home with a heavy heart. She had had a bad feeling since earlier. It has been a bit peaceful after the incident of them being ambushed by the old gang members of their old enemy, but deep inside her, she knew that something bad would happen. She dismissed the worry, wishing that it was just her being paranoid. Elijah already killed the newborns but the pureblood who turned the humans was still alive. "Two of them were thrown in a dumpster, and the other one was just left on the streets." She recalled the report she heard earlier. Three of their hunters were killed relentlessly by different vampires, whom she assumes were pureblood vampires. The hunters that were disposed of in the dumpster like trash were killed by a woman, while the other one was killed by another vampire. None of them were the purebloods she saw last time, but they all thought the same after seeing the footage of how the hunters were killed. It was impossible that it had been done by a newborn vampire.

    Allen let out an annoyed groan after he had just pulled Louise out of the scene when he saw hunters hovering near them. Louise was still out of it because of the high of the bloodlust still rushing to every fiber of his being. "What was happening?" Louise asked. His voice is deeper than usual, but he is slowly gaining consciousness about what is happening. He clicked his tongue, "Idiot. You almost got killed. Wipe that blood off your mouth." Louise’s eyes widened, and he felt more sober after what he heard. He touched his face and realized that Allen was right about the blood on his lips. There was something about blood that the vampire’s body was constantly craving; no matter how much they consumed, it would never be enough. That is why he doesn’t even realize that he is covered in blood as his body casually hangs on for that connection. He promptly wiped his mouth clean and used all the concentration he had to calm himself. They couldn’t walk around with his eyes glowing, and he

    "Why are you all here?" Alice complained after seeing the rest of her old team. Art laughed awkwardly. "You didn’t check the notice again, didn’t you?" "What was it about?" She didn’t deny it at all. It was true that she didn’t bother reading it. Carl shakes his head. He was starting to wonder how Alice hadn’t gotten herself into any danger because of her carelessness. "We were set out as a group again. Because of what happened yesterday, we were advised to be careful just in case they were planning any group attacks." Kate was the one who explained the situation. Alice frowned and was about to leave, but Karina quickly managed to stop her. "Anyone is expected to follow the notice, and was told that anyone who would abandon their group will be suspended indefinitely. I think Black Lotus added that part just for you." Alice’s smile was oozing with sarcasm, but she had no choice but to follow them around. It took them an hour to find a vampire, and it wasn’t even a newborn. Elijah

    She practiced her aim and poured her heart out while running. This time, she got the rest she wanted, and no one randomly appeared to bother her training. There were trainees who saw her, but no one dared approach her. She realized that they were put into self-training because there were no availability of trainers. It has never happened before when she was still training. If one of their trainers wasn’t around, there would always be someone who would step up to help. They never got to idle like that, and it somehow worried her. She shook her head. "What would be our future with these kids?" Alice couldn’t help but sigh after watching them from a short distance. She wasn’t expecting everyone to have perfect aim, but they were just bad. Alice couldn’t take it anymore and finally stepped up to help them. They all tensed up when Alice suddenly approached them, but she quickly told them that she simply couldn’t take watching them. "Skills are useless if your stance sucks. You’ll always
