Chapter 18: The Belmont's 2
With Melody following behind him Virgil walked through the melted gate into the Belmont estate.
"So tell me how did you find my daughter," the father asked
"I happened to run into her while I was out," Virgil replied
"Maybe our ancestors are protecting you," the mother said with a small laugh
"So did you get anything from the assailants?" the father asked
"I have their phones I will hand them over to you after we speak," Virgil answered
"I see thank you that will make this matter easier to deal with,"
"But now I want you to answer something for me?" Virgil said
"Yes, what is it,"
"Why are there vampires and creatures of the night among your staff?" Virgil asked putting his guard up
"...I see so you realized. May I ask how," the father said after a short silence
"Well the smell of blood is overwhelming and I can feel the dark magic in the air,"
"Only a hunter has been able to realize are you a friend of Lord Constantine," Allen asked
"I guess you could say something like that but I'm no hunter," Virgil replied
"I should have guessed that fire of yours did not seem from this earth," the mother sighed
"So you are Arcanic. I will explain why we have them but for now please control your bloodlust," the father said looking back at Virgil
"V what are you talking about?" Melody asked
"Are you kidding me she doesn't know. You're own daughter does not know that she is..." Virgil said in surprise
"Please don't tell her...I am fixing it," The father interrupted
"h-how do you know about Melody?" the mother asked confused and nervous
"Mother...father what is he talking about?" Melody asked
"...Nothing I will explain it to you when we get inside you are old enough so it's time you know," the father said with a sigh
"I agree this is not something that should be said in public," the butler Allen added
"No, tell me what V is talking about what are you guys talking about" Melody said with a clenched fist
"Please Mel wait until we get inside," her mother pleaded.
"V tell me what you mean," Melody said her eyes filled with confusion
"I'm sorry I can't I have to allow them to explain what is happening," Virgil replied
"You since you're her parents I will allow you to explain. I must go for now because of prior arrangements but I will return within a few hours. Then we can talk about everything on the table," Virgil said turning around
"W-wait V don't go please don't leave," Meldoy said her face filled with different emotions
"Don't worry my flames will always protect you until I come back," Virgil said kneeling to her
Placing his finger on her forehead a small flicker of flame appeared and left a small blue flame mark on her forehead.
"And I suggest getting rid of the bodyguard who was placed to protect her he was the one who aided the kidnapping. These are the phones I found off the assailants," Virgil said
Walking away from the group blue fire shot out from his feet and hands launching him into the air and allowing him to fly.
As he flew away Sabastian who had been quiet finally spoke.
{Tell me the truth how the hell do you know all of this I never thought you any of this but you are using this magic in a way I never thought of. A protection charm is a high-ranking skill and you used it like nothing} Sabastian said completely baffled
"Truthfully I don't know anytime I use a skill it's like something new I can do with it is sent to my head. Half the time it's instinct I just do it without thinking," Virgil replied
{Alright how did you know about the girl's sickness that's not something that randomly learned}
"Well at first I felt something wrong with the air around her. So I used mana vision and it showed a dark mist cloud that was surrounding it. I could feel it killing her," Virgil explained
{...Why am I surprised at this point your just not normal...Maybe you really are the} Sebastian sighed
[Stop speaking]
[Rescriction Formed]
"What...prescription what is that about?" Virgil asked
{I'm sorry it's nothing you have to worry about} Sabastian replied his voice now low and regretful
(...What the hell?) Virgil thought to himself
