The Book of Voltaire 5 VOLUMED BUNDLE

Book I - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 – Awakening

"Ah... Count Voltaire. How long has it been?"

"My dark Lord, I have come as you requested to summon me."

"You are the dark Lord here, not me anymore. I am too old for that."

"It has been 6 centuries and you never age Breed. How is Strigoi Vii doing?"

"Dead. Sent to Hell."

"What? Why?"

"I killed him... I killed my own mentor, and drank all of his blood for power."

"I do not wish to object but I am questioning why you would do such a thing."

"Young Lord, there is so much for you to learn about vampirism. You studied the entire library here at Corvin and memorized every detail and spells what vampires can do in all of the powers they have." He sniffed the air, "Ah... you have awakened. I can smell it in your blood. Good work. I summoned you here just for you to drink human blood that you can practice since I've read your mind these entire times saying that you are too scared to bare your fangs on a human without their consent. Such a gentleman you are just like my least favorite for Jonathan Harker. He died quote of the old age yet he is conscious enough to scratch out of his coffin these all 2 centuries but never made it out. Ah yes, the rest of the others I've bitten to but never got to drink mine. They all scream out of their coffins yet no one can hear them, they rot and die but their consciousness is still intact. Once a vampire bites a human, they become ghouls and have to regain their human appearance by eating flesh and of course their immortal age. However, if the ghoul or just a mere human drinks blood of the vampire they will turn. And they will learn to embrace it whether they like it or not as long as they get their first taste of blood. Tell me, Young Master, how does it feel like to drink blood, was it consensual?"

"No, they were 5 of them, murdered in cold blood."

"That is unbecoming of you."

"It is a mere self-defense Breed. They were Gokudos."

"All these Gokudo stories never get old. You join, you kill, you eat flesh, you quit, Gokudo starts to kill you again, you join again for protection then the cycle continues."

"Don't you fret Breed! I have all of the power I need!"

"You lack power, which knowledge is power, power in the mind. Without the mind, there is no physical body to control, as well as for other humans to do your bidding... Just like your father, you used maddening hypnosis. He went insane and let you outside. I know the story, your mother does not let you, she told you to get vaccinated first. We, vampires, do not get sick." He scoffed, "But your parents will never believe you are a vampire that cannot get sick over a pest that plagued the world. Your immunity is beyond human comparison. Your mind is beyond human comprehension. Remember that. As I mentioned, I wanted to summon you here so you could consciously feed on human blood for the first time instead of having to sleepwalk and go on a nightly rampage in my city just to drink blood without your mind intact whilst asleep."

"I remember those nights... I dreamt of walking yet it was not lucid as I tried to make it."

"That is why you have so much to learn, you are almost getting there, you are starting to remember your sleepwalks but you don't know how to control it as if you are awake. Once you sleepwalk all of your dormant powers are activated beyond godlike. No longer have your human compassion. But once you awaken from slumber back in your bed, you will remember vaguely of your sleepwalk. Although, it is useless if you do not know how to control your mind and body during a sleepwalk. AKA called, ''dream walking."

"Thank you for your kindness, and hospitality here at your home."

"Oh please, you run the place, Young Master. I recommend you stay here for a month."

"Just like you planned on Jonathan Harker, you told him to stay in your castle for a month."

"That was Bran Castle, not Corvin, Bran Castle is all the way in Transylvania. But we are in a different city, and as well as for you, you must run the place as the Prince of Darkness here. My job here is done, for me, I am going to take a century cat nap. You will no longer need my teachings and advice; you can figure out your new awakened powers on your own."

"What if I do not wish to run the place as of the moment?"

"Would you rather wish to go back to your hellish life instead of the lap of luxury at Corvin wanting to work hard just to become a Philosophy Doctor as a Hematologist? How foolish can you be? You and your humanity are rather but crap bull. You need to learn more. If you do not wish to run the place, then don't. Someone else will take your title."

"WAIT! I will... I WILL RUN CORVIN CASTLE!"

"That's what I thought."

"I, a Dracul, have the right to be proud! And I cannot let anyone be superior to me! Not even your father!!!"

"Good. Make me proud."

He went to his tomb and went to sleep as his tomb closed itself. It cannot be opened again until the next century.
