Castlevania: Dark side of the moon

Descedant

" You don't know anything, foolish child." Adrian's voice turned dark. There was resentment in his voice and hatred in his golden eyes as he stared at me. "A love letter, it has to work on both sides to be one. That's a suicide letter." Adrian growled defensively. " Lisa would never accept a love letter written in the blood of innocents. She would never agree to this genocide. Vlad is a lunatic. And he must be detained and this is all a suicide letter, because the truth is that he died on the day he Lisa Tepes has stopped breathing in this world. So, never talk about what you don't know again.

" Hey, Leech, you don't have to talk like that either. " Trevor got involved.

Alucard glared at him.

" Fuck you, Belmont. " Released a defensive Alucard. " Mind your own business.

I huddled close to Dantalion and didn't say anything else. Adrian has never spoken to me in that tone before. Never at all. For some reason, I just want to cry. But I held back the tears. Ah, Selene, always so fragile, isn't she?

...

I opened my eyes at dusk, it was only then that I realized that before I was sleeping with my head resting on Dante's legs, when I woke up and heard the horrendous sound of beating wings, I felt the metallic smell of blood in the air. The noise of the wings beating like something against the wind, accompanies the roars along with screams in the distance.

I watched Dante, completely fearful and voiceless. He was the one who watched over my sleep before and lent me his legs as a pillow. Then I realized there was a delicious, fuzzy bearskin blanket covering me. Dante when I woke up just peeked at me and touched my face under Adrian's watchful gaze often over us.

Dante wiped away my tears, which I only realized I shed now. I must have dreamed of my parents and Alucard being killed by Cain again. But this time, I don't remember the nightmare. Fortunately.

Then, after I woke up for good and sat on the floor of the cart, the demon disguised as a human, took his sword firmly when Sypha and Trevor stopped the cart, probably to fight the monsters.

It's better to call my parents by their names so it doesn't hurt my heart anymore. Even if I call them parents in my mind, they will never live up to my expectations in this life and I will always be frustrated. If I don't call them Sypha and Trevor in my head, the wound I have from their deaths that I caused by getting involved with Cain will never heal.

" Find a comfortable place for my lady to sleep, build a fire and prepare a meal. Look for a stream for her to bathe in. " Dantalion sent solemnly. " I'll sort it out. She must be hungry and feeling dirty.

Sypha looked at Dante with the sword, surprised:

" Will you solve this alone? There must be six creatures out there. Can you do it? " My mother asked, a little irritated by the orders he left over me, but worried about the question of him wanting to face Dracula's monsters alone. " We can help."

Dante calmly replied:

" I'll solve it. Just protect Selene in case something goes wrong and one of the creatures passes by me.

" Are we the brat's protective soldiers now? " Trevor joked, getting irritated.

" I would protect her. But I promised her I would be her weapon and stop her from seeing any more deaths. " Dante informed. For some reason I wanted to cry. " She has already seen her parents and a dear friend of hers being killed in front of her... I don't want her to see deaths anymore.

He is being the weapon he promised he would be in our pact. The weapon that protects those I love and myself. Dante, as much as you will devour my soul at the end of our pact, I still feel your care goes beyond what I expected.

He took off the sheath of his sword and the once ordinary blade began to catch violet fire and he jumped magnanimous from inside the carriage, checking the surroundings and waiting for the creatures to appear as he did every night I slept through nightmares about Cain since we arrived.

Sypha, Trevor and Alucard studied him moving in a blur and cutting something and then they looked me in the eyes demanding answers about who my skilled companion was, who could teleport like Adrian and kill creatures of the night with his sword of violet fire without nor sweat.

I noticed Adrian getting up too and taking the lead, with the flying sword he had, which was levitating.

" I'll protect your lady if something goes wrong," Adrian said, solemnly and shouting to Dante, who was outside the cart. "If you need help, don't hesitate to ask. But first, I need to know which of the great houses she belongs to... You're a wizard, aren't you? Why would a skilled wizard like you serve a noble lady... Who is she?

I felt Trevor's gaze on me, also strange at the mention of the great houses of Wallachia. Yes, the Belmonts were also one of the great houses before they were excommunicated by the church. I was a Belmont, but it's not like I can claim my surname and heritage now.

" It belongs to the house of the Wallachian prince Mircea II, son of Vlad II, father of Vlad the Impaler the Third, who is now known as Dracula. " Invented Dantalion, calm. " She is the lady of the house of Mircea II, Dracula's human brother.

Adrian's eyes widened and he let his eyes rest on me as if he saw a ghost.

" This would make her a direct descendant of the house of Vlad Dracul and Wallachian royalty. " Adrian found, simply blurting out the words, still looking at me with his golden eyes blinking in disbelief. " A descendant of the house of Dracula, before he was a vampire.

I felt the eyes of my parents and godfather fall on me. Yeah, that was a bit exaggerated. Does Dantalion think about everything beforehand or does he just act? Hell. How did he know that Dracula had a human brother.

" Yes, but she is a distant descendant of Dracula. " Dante confirmed, returning to the cart, with some blood spatters on his clothes and face. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go make way for you. Selene, if you need anything, shout for me and I'll come to you right away.

I nodded.
