Chapter - The Awakening - Part 2

"You don't have a martial soul. Rather than that, you have Shadow Mould Physique. Thus, you already had a soul core. That's why the process went very smoothly."

That's right. Vincent doesn't have a martial soul. He had this strange physique that can easily be considered a martial soul. There were many differences between them, but on the internal level. From the naked eye, anyone will say that it's a martial soul. He obtained this strange physique after a certain incident along with Shisui. Vincent clenched his fists firmly as he reminded that incident. Febrica is also able to feel that Vincent is getting angry. Truly speaking, she also wanted to know many things. In her timeline, she wasn't involved in many incidents and knew little about the world. But now she knew throughly about many things as well as some points of the future. And she'll going to involved for the better future. Her future really was a hell. Vincent, Lily, and Febrica entered inside another chamber of the castle.

In the middle of the chamber, there was a black coffin present alone in the dark. As Febrica removed the lid of the coffin. Vincent saw that a fifteen years old boy who had short, unkempt, dark-coloured hair, a relatively broad nose, and well-defined eyelashes that were turned upwards at each end was sleeping with his arm crossed.

"The ritual didn't go smoothly for Shisui. He's a half vampire. That's why he's ageing like a human. In order to save his life, we have to put him into eternal slumber. Now, to wake him up, we need the blood of a male vampire who has the bloodline of the Shisui family." Febrica explained to Vincent.

"Male vampire?" Vincent asked as he raised his left eyebrow.

"Yes! Only a male vampire can awaken a male vampire from eternal slumber, and vice versa ... Shisui belonged from the Acrane clan, and your mother is also from the Acrane clan. As, you also have the [Arringun], so you fulfilled both the conditions. Go on, wake him up."

Vincent followed the steps of Febrica, and the aura around him turned dark and creepy. His pupil turned lavender in colour, and his iris turned dark red and split into three-tomoes. The tomoes were 120 degrees away from each other, forming a kind of Y-shaped pattern in his eyes.

Febrica was seeing this along with Lily. She grinned as she said, "Congratulations, Vincent! You have evolved your Arringun. I didn't tell you this, but ... the condition of upgrading your Arringun is to turn into a creature of the night."

Vincent continued the awakening process, but he listened to the words of Febrica. He'll think about it later. He cutted his palm with his sharp and long nail. The colour of his nails turned black after his transformation. As Vincent put his blood in the mouth of Shisui. The process of awakening began. He moved backwards, and his wound healed with startling speed.

The sound of groan and pain came out from the coffin. After a few minutes, Shisui immediately stood up, and he was huffing and panting heavily like he saw a very terrible nightmare. His eyes fell on the trio, and he said in a shock,

"That wasn't a nightmare ... The future ... It was all real."

Febrica said to Shisui while giggling,

"Hi, brother. I want you to meet your brother-in-law. You already know him, hehehe. Oh, this little girl is your sister. Hey Lily, say 'Hi' to your brother."

Vincent helped Shisui from coming out from the coffin by giving him a hand. They both shake hand like some old buddies. After that, Shisui said to Vincent, "Happy marriage to you, Vincent."

Vincent mouth twitched. It felt like he was being teased. He knew that Shisui gratitude was genuine, but it felt more like teasing than congratulations. The dark aura disappeared, and with that, the eyes of Vincent and Shisui turned back to normal.

Febrica said to Lily, "You go back to your room and study. We wanted to talk about something very important."

Lily, like an obedient child, nodded. After saying goodbye to Vincent and Uncle Shisui, which he didn't mind at all, she went out from the chamber.

As soon as she went away and covered a suitable distance from them. The expression of Shisui and Febrica turned serious as they faced Vincent,

"Okay, tell us what exactly happened three years ago. You are the sole person of the Azure Village who knows what happened at that time."

Vincent expression also turned serious as he said,

"Let's go to the living room. Your mother also wanted to know about it."

Both of them nodded in understanding.

All of them went to the living room. On the way Shisui said to Vincent,

"Listen, Vincent, you don't have to things all by yourself. We are here to help you. If you do things on your own, you'll surely fail. You'll always find me on your side, believe me. Just like I believe in you."

Vincent gave a thumbs-up and replied,

"Your words are now my command, brother."

They entered the living room silently. Just as they entered, the guards appeared outside the doors, and all the doors to the living room closed. Red and Violet were already sitting on the sofa. The three of them sat opposite to them. Vincent was about to tell the story of what happened three years later, but Red stopped him and said.

Just shake your hand with this and think about the incident. Vincent looked at the corpse hand on the table and did what he was said to do without any hesitation. The corpse hand tightly gripped him. If he wanted to, then he could throw off it aside. He started to remember the glimpses of that incident. After a while, the hand let him go automatically. Red put a crystal ball on the hand and said,

"All of you, put your hands on it."

All the people put one of their hand on it.
