Someone was riding on horseback, dressed in Victorian clothing. It was Konsoon.
Viktor was riding a horse behind him, and Remji was riding another horse as well. The three of them were traveling somewhere together.
As they continued on their way, Konsoon suddenly stopped.
Someone was standing directly in front of him, some distance away, with an army gathered behind them.
Konsoon looked at them and said,
"Interesting."
The Turban: A towering headpiece of pristine white silk, wound flawlessly around a deep crimson velvet cap. A falcon-egg-sized emerald clutched a tuft of midnight-black heron feathers at the front. A thin, hidden cap of hardened steel was concealed beneath the silk.
The Kaftan: A heavy, floor-sweeping robe woven from midnight-blue Bursa silk and gold brocade. It featured silver-stitched çintamani power symbols and was lined internally with black sable fur.
The Under-Armor: A hidden, lightweight plated mail shirt made of thousands of interlocking steel rings. It featured four polished steel chest plates inlaid with gold calligraphy of protective Quranic verses.
The Sash: A thick, tightly wrapped belt of crimson silk cinched his waist.
The Boots: Thigh-high boots of supple black leather, dyed and oiled for silent movement on marble or for a firm grip in war stirrups.
He had multiple guards with him, while Konsoon smiled and said,
"Assalamu alaikum."
The leader replied,
"Wa alaikum assalam, Konsoon."
Konsoon looked at him carefully.
"I see. If I'm not mistaken, you are… Bayezid II? Sultan Bayezid? Your real name is Bayezid bin Mehmed, the great- great grandson of Sultan Mehmed II? It's great to see you here."
Behind Bayezid, his army sat on horseback.
Bayezid looked at Konsoon and said,
"Tell me, what exactly brings you here? And why do you want to pass through this place?"
Konsoon calmly replied,
"I'm here to take care of some work."
Suddenly, one of the guards charged toward Konsoon's horse.
Konsoon was on his horse without reacting to anything, and then the guard got cut into two pieces. The guard said, "Ahhhh!" And then Konsoon said, 'Pathetic. To think that would even touch me.'"
Bayezid II was shocked for a moment, and so were the other guards.
Konsoon remained completely calm.
"I'm not here to fight you. We are both here in peace, aren't we? Don't you agree?"
Suddenly, Konsoon's eyes turned red.
Bayezid II stared at him.
"Those eyes… red eyes? Could it be? Are you one of the last surviving vampires? I might say… Konsoon Sanguis?"
Konsoon smiled.
"So, you know me?"
Bayezid took a breath and said,
"Of course. Your name is very well known to me, Sanguis. At the age of sixteen, you conquered multiple kingdoms. How could I possibly forget you? You are blood-related to Dracula himself."
Konsoon smiled.
"Well, our great-great ancestors had quite the rivalry, didn't they?"
Bayezid nodded.
"I agree with you, at least in that regard."
He then moved his horse to the side and gave an order.
"Let them pass."
The guards moved aside.
Another guard was about to attack, but Bayezid immediately raised his hand.
"Stop."
Konsoon and his servants continued riding past them.
After they had gone some distance, one of the servants looked at Bayezid in confusion.
"My lord, why did you let them go so easily?"
Bayezid looked at him.
"I already told you his name. You didn't even know who he was. You're new here."
He looked toward the direction Konsoon had gone.
"I suppose you don't understand yet. He is someone whom you cannot defeat. Even though there were only three of them, they would be enough to take down our entire army at once."
Meanwhile, Konsoon continued riding forward with his servants.
Konsoon suddenly said,
"The things are near. I can see them."
The same strange thing was floating in the air.
Then, out of nowhere, several guards came rushing toward Konsoon and attacked him.
Konsoon simply looked at them.
His eyes turned red.
The guards looked directly into his eyes.
Suddenly—
BOOM!
One of the guard's heads exploded.
Blood splattered across the ground as his body collapsed from the horse.
Viktor moved in an instant.
He rushed toward another guard and attacked him with incredible speed.
The guard didn't even have time to react.
At the same moment, Remji moved just as quickly.
He attacked another guard, cutting his hand cleanly into two pieces.
"AHHHHH!"
The guard screamed as blood poured from the wound, flowing across the ground like a river.
"Monster!"
Konsoon watched calmly.
Then he smiled.
"Well then..."
The scene shifted.
Konsoon continued walking forward, with Remji beside him.
After walking for some time, Konsoon stopped in front of a massive structure that looked almost like a house. He placed his hand against its surface.
Konsoon looked at it carefully.
"So, this is where Dracula's tomb was hidden."
He smiled slightly.
"This might be interesting. I haven't been here before."
Konsoon then looked toward Viktor.
"Viktor, watch for anyone who comes here."
He paused for a moment.
"And I'll handle what I'm going to do with this."
Suddenly—
Konsoon disappeared.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely different place.
Konsoon looked around.
"?"
He remained calm.
"Where am I?"
A massive armored man stood nearby.
His name was Hercules.
Konsoon looked at him carefully.
"So... this is your domain?"
He smiled.
"Interesting."
Then Konsoon noticed someone else.
A little girl with blonde hair was sitting on Hercules' shoulder.
She looked directly at him.
"We were ordered to kill you here, Konsoon Sanguis."
She paused.
"So, in short..."
Her expression became serious.
"We're going to kill you."
Konsoon stared at them for a moment.
Then he smiled.
"I see."
He looked around the unfamiliar domain.
"How fascinating, isn't it?"
Konsoon looked around the domain.
"Your dimension looks very good, enough to impress me. However, I might still escape from it."
Hercules looked at him.
"You cannot escape my domain."
Konsoon smiled.
"Is that so? That looks very promising, doesn't it?"
The little girl sitting on Hercules' shoulder smiled.
"My name is Lilile. Shall we begin our fight, Lord Konsoon?"
Konsoon looked at her.
"Sure. But I guess it won't take long to take you down, I might say."
Lilile smiled.
"That egoistic personality you have..."
The scene shifted.
Viktor was standing in another part of the domain.
He looked around and realized that he was trapped somehow.
Viktor looked shocked.
"Isn't it?"
Suddenly, a man appeared in front of him.
He wore a half-face mask that covered his mouth.
The man looked directly at Viktor.
"Tell me... what can you do here?"
The scene shifted again.
Remji was sitting in another strange place.
The surroundings were filled with blue and orange light.
A beautiful woman stood in front of him, looking directly at him.
She smiled.
"Tell me, dear..."
She tilted her head slightly.
"Does your magic even work here?"
The scene shifted back to Konsoon.
Konsoon raised his hand toward Hercules and opened his palm.
He slowly closed his fingers.
Hercules suddenly felt something strange.
"What?"
Konsoon looked at him calmly.
"I see. I can rupture your heart or tear your body apart from the inside by manipulating your blood."
Hercules smiled.
"Well, that's obvious. I am the strongest one here, you vampire. Your blood manipulation doesn't have that much effect here."
Konsoon looked at him.
"I see."
He paused for a moment.
"In fact, no martial arts might be of much help here either."
Konsoon raised his hand.
A sword began to appear in his grasp.
"Diabolic Sword."
His expression remained calm.
"I order you to summon here."
The Diabolic Sword appeared completely in his hand.
Hercules looked at him.
"Well then..."
He stepped forward.
"Be ready to die here."
Konsoon stood still.
Hercules charged toward him.
As Hercules approached, Konsoon simply smiled.
The scene shifted.
The scene shifted to Tai Yang.
He was walking forward when he noticed Cardo following behind him.
Tai Yang looked back.
"Hey, can I ask you something? Why are you coming with me?"
Cardo looked at him.
"You already know."
Tai Yang nodded.
"Yeah, yeah, I do know. You're worried that I could be captured by Kaizen."
He continued walking.
"But hey, it's not like I'm going to be captured right now. I don't really feel like it's going to happen."
Cardo remained expressionless.
"He still knows where we could be. So there might always be a risk, as you know."
He continued looking at Tai Yang.
"We'll go away eventually. However, on this mission, it is still necessary that I accompany you."
Tai Yang looked at him for a moment.
Wow. He looks really cold.
Even though I want to make the moment funny, this guy never lets me make anything funny.
Tai Yang sighed and continued walking.
Tai Yang looked ahead.
"So, this is the village, huh?"
The scene shifted back to Konsoon.
Konsoon swung his sword toward Hercules.
"You have pretty good sword skills, I might say. However, it might not be enough to reach my level."
Lilile used her magic, summoning flame-like dwellings around Konsoon.
The flames suddenly pulled Konsoon backward.
But when the attack ended, Konsoon hadn't even been damaged.
He looked at both of them calmly.
He smiled.
"Is that the best you can do?"
Konsoon said, "My physical abilities are useless here too. But again, I have multiple attacks that can counter this domain of yours."
Hercules said, "You cannot escape, Konsoon Sanguis. This domain is specially powerful. It can affect anybody. However, you are not getting affected, which I might say means you are pretty good at this, aren't you? Any other man would get crushed here."
Konsoon said, "You know this won't be enough to kill me. However, I might say you could cause me a little trouble here. But eventually, I will be the one who wins. Even if you both try your best, it doesn't really matter at all."
Konsoon raised his sword, and blood came toward Hercules like water.
Hercules dodged it.
Then Lilile attacked Konsoon with fire.
Konsoon raised his hand and caught the attack with his hand.
Lilile looked at him.
"He has physical abilities and blood manipulation. Now I see why he is also the leader of the Holy Earth, and why he is called the Leader of the Abyss."
The scene shifted to Viktor.
Viktor looked at the masked man and swung his sword.
The masked man said, "If I'm not wrong, you are that human I last saw. Viktor…? However, I don't know what your name is. But you have been called Viktor Sanguis in recent years. You might say you remember me. My name is Zugo Awarshama."
He continued, "You are in my domain. To start with, you cannot escape. You and your lord are going to be killed here."
Viktor looked at him.
"I see.
Viktor has no facial expression at all.
Zugo attacked Viktor.
Viktor's expression became serious as he dodged the attack.
The scene shifted to Remji.
Remji was fighting the woman. She attacked him with her flowers. She didn't move at all, but the flowers moved on their own. The flowers were half mixed with red.
She said, "It's useless. You can't escape from here."
The flowers suddenly moved at high speed toward Remji's right face. He wasn't seriously injured, but a small cut appeared on his face.
She looked at him.
"I guess I was able to injure you a little."
She then said, "My name is Chloris."
The scene shifted back to Konsoon.
Konsoon was floating in the air and attacked both Hercules and Lilile.
Lilile was half injured.
Hercules said, "You're not getting crushed here, and you're using your ability like it's nothing. It's really hard to believe."
Konsoon said, "My blood manipulation isn't limited by your domain. Your domain is powerful, but what it does is ignore your special domain attacks. It completely ignores the space where I'm standing and the dimensions around me. I can surpass through them."
Lilile said, "I see… So that's how it works? He completely ignores it."
Lilile looked at Konsoon.
"No attack has damaged him, but compared to us, we've already been hit by him a little."
She thought for a moment.
"Can he see through the atomic level? Because he's reacting so fast."
Konsoon suddenly moved extremely fast.
Konsoon said, "You're right, though. But things are different. Having atomic perception means I can sense everything that is under my influence here.
"I can sense things within my influence. I can sense the flow of blood through every cell in both of your bodies.
"That's how my ability works. I don't only see things at the atomic level. I can sense them too, at the same time."
Lilile said, "Are you able to read my mind?"
Konsoon suddenly teleported.
"Yeah, I can."
He launched another attack at her, and Lilile was damaged by it.
Konsoon said, "And one reminder: my Diabolic Sword is a highly specialized sword. It doesn't only affect the body; it also affects the soul inside of you, so-called goddess Lilile."
Hercules shouted, "No! Sister Lilile!"
Konsoon looked at both of them.
"I guess you both are done here."
Hercules said, "Now, this is enough to destroy you here."
The sky began to shatter.
Lightning struck as the surroundings started to change.
Konsoon looked up.
"Interesting."
The scene shifted to Remji.
Remji was fighting Chloris with his sword. He made his sword longer, causing Chloris to move back for a moment.
Remji then attacked her.
Blood floated through the air as Chloris was injured.
Remji remained expressionless as always.
The scene shifted again to Viktor, who was fighting Zugo.
Viktor swung his sword extremely fast.
Zugo said, "You are very strong. I'll give you that. But with my mana…"
Zugo's mana began floating around him.
"…I will take everything from you."
Viktor was already half injured, but he continued holding his sword.
Viktor became serious and contacted Konsoon through his mind.
"My lord, I have seen many gods. I have fought many of them. But this one is very different. I want you to unseal my power so I can make this god kneel before Viktor."
Viktor suddenly found himself standing in a black void.
Konsoon looked at him with a serious expression.
"You want me to unseal your power?"
Viktor knelt.
"Yes, my lord."
Konsoon looked at him.
"Well then, use it."
Viktor raised his Bazuka Sword.
Zugo looked at him.
"What?"
The blade of Viktor's sword became black.
Viktor's blond hair began shining even more as it floated in the air.
Viktor looked at Zugo.
"Allow me to demonstrate what I can do."
Zugo stared at him.
"...Huh?"
Viktor's hair continued floating.
"Let me demonstrate what I can do."
Viktor swung his sword, cutting through the ground in half.
Zugo quickly dodged the attack.
"Damn it! Does it destroy physical objects?"
The ground that had been cut was turned into ashes.
Viktor moved extremely fast and attacked Zugo again.
Zugo dodged the attack, but he was still half cut by it.
Viktor looked at him.
"You can't escape its influence."
Zugo moved extremely fast.
"Take this! Hahhh!"
The scene shifted to Remji.
Remji was still fighting Chloris. His blade became extremely long as he attacked her.
He then summoned many more blades.
"I order you—summon blades!"
Many blades appeared around them.
The scene shifted to Tai Yang.
Tai was sitting inside a house in the village, looking bored.
"Come on… Where is the hard mission they were talking about?"
He looked around.
"Huh? I don't see anything here."
Tai Yang looked at Cardo.
"Don't joke around with me."
Cardo looked ahead.
"This is going to take a very long time."
Just then, someone approached them.
Her name was Jeil. She was a fat woman wearing brown clothes.
She looked at them and asked,
"Oh, are you the ones who were assigned here?"
Tai Yang replied,
"Technically, yeah."
Before Tai could say anything else, Cardo interrupted him.
"Yeah. We're here to help, too."
Tai looked at Cardo.
"Hey, you can't do that!"
Jeil smiled.
"Oh, it would be very helpful to have both of you here. I want you to find my lost son."
Tai and Cardo became more serious.
"He was kidnapped by some evil organization," Jeil explained.
Cardo nodded.
"I see. Can I have anything they left behind?"
Jeil nodded.
"Wait. I have something."
She went inside and came back with a sword. She handed it to Cardo.
Cardo looked at it.
"I see… What was this?"
Jeil looked at the sword.
"It belonged to my husband. He wanted to save our son, but because of that, he lost his life."
Flashback
Jeil's husband stood in front of their son, protecting him.
"Hey! Stay back from here!"
A man holding a sword approached them.
"Don't worry. I'm not going to do anything to you. I just want something from this village."
Suddenly, the swordsman stabbed Jeil's husband.
Blood began flowing as he collapsed.
"No!"
Jeil screamed as she watched her husband die.
Flashback Ends
Jeil looked at Tai and Cardo.
"I want you to find them."
Tai Yang looked ahead.
"Looks very intense right now."
Then Tai said recklessly,
"But it might be very cool."
The scene shifted to someone who was on a tree, listening to them.
Tai Yang looked at the bird.
"We should go, I guess."
Cardo didn't even reply.
Tai looked at him.
"Hey, you should say something. You're always so serious, guy. This is the moment where we're supposed to be funny for a second."
The scene shifted to Konsoon.
Konsoon was fighting Hercules.
Hercules rushed toward Konsoon at incredible speed.
Lilile assisted him.
Suddenly, thunder from the sky rushed toward Konsoon at incredible speed.
Konsoon swung his sword and cut through the thunder.
Konsoon swung his hand, and blood started flowing everywhere like water.
Lilile looked at him.
She used her magic flames.
"Inferno Blaze!"
Flames spread everywhere, covering the entire area and setting the surroundings ablaze.
Konsoon's eyes turned red.
Due to his mind bending ability, the flames covered him completely, but when they disappeared, Konsoon hadn't taken any damage at all.
Konsoon then moved very quickly toward Hercules.
Hercules extended his sword and made himself much bigger.
"How about this?"
His sword also grew more extended as he prepared to attack Konsoon.
Konsoon looked at Hercules.
"I see."
Hercules smiled.
"How about this?"
Suddenly, the sky looked like it was falling.
Konsoon smiled.
"Looks like the sky is getting smaller."
Hercules looked at him.
"You are getting death with this!"
"Void Crack!"
The sky began falling down toward Konsoon.
Konsoon calmly used his blood manipulation.
"Well then…"
Konsoon raised his hand.
Blood began flowing everywhere, surrounding him.
"Now, with my move…"
"Blood…"
He was about to chant something.
The scene shifted to Viktor.
Viktor attacked Zugo with his blade, while Zugo was already injured.
Viktor raised his Bazuka Blade.
"Bazuka Blade: Chaos!"
The attack moved directly toward Zugo.
It cut straight through everything in its path.
Zugo's hand was sliced cleanly in half, blood immediately bursting from the severed flesh.
The slash continued through the space itself, splitting the air as it passed.
Then both of Zugo's hands were brutally severed. Blood poured from the open wounds and floated through the air around him, droplets scattering everywhere.
Zugo stared at Viktor.
"So… this is how it ends?"
He suddenly realized what had happened.
Half of his head and half of his body had already been cut through. Blood streamed from the massive wounds, his body beginning to fall apart as the blood continued floating around him.
"So… this is how it ends…?"
He looked at the blood drifting through the air.
And then Zugo died.
Remji's blades attacked Chloris.
She was being damaged, getting cut by the blades.
Chloris looked shocked.
"What? How can it be?"
Chloris said, "Flower Petals: Raw Diego!"
The flowers came toward Remji.
Chloris was bleeding, but she was still standing. One of her hands had been pierced by one of Remji's swords.
Even though she was injured, Chloris was still going to fight him.
Flowers came toward Remji, attacking him.
Remji was bleeding from the attacks.
Chloris looked at him.
"How was that? These will be my final moves."
Then, every flower began forming around Remji.
More and more flowers surrounded him, completely trapping him from every direction.
The flower petals became slimmer, and more flowers formed around Remji.
Blood was coming from Remji as the flowers surrounded him from every direction. The flowers were round, completely enclosing him.
Chloris smiled.
"See? I told you. You can't win against me. Even though you tried a lot, in the end, you died here."
Then, out of nowhere—
Remji teleported.
"?"
Chloris's eyes widened.
"What?"
Remji moved incredibly fast.
His sword flashed.
SHING!
He cut Chloris's head off.
A huge fountain of blood erupted from her neck, spraying through the air as her severed head flew away.
"What…?"
Somehow, Chloris was still conscious even though her head had been cut off.
Remji raised his swords.
Multiple swords appeared around her.
Chloris reacted in shock.
"What?!"
The swords suddenly shot toward her head.
SHING! SHING!
One of the blades struck directly through her forehead.
Blood burst from the wound as her body finally collapsed to the ground.
Remji stood there, expressionless, looking at her fallen body.
The scene shifted to Konsoon.
Konsoon was standing there without any harm.
Lilile had died.
Hercules was somehow still alive, but his entire body had been brutally cut in half. Blood poured from the massive wound.
Hercules stared at his destroyed body.
"What was that attack?"
Blood continued flowing from him.
"It completely destroyed my whole body…"
Then he realized something even worse.
"My soul… is being cut in half too…"
Hercules looked toward Konsoon.
"So… this is how it ends, huh?"
Konsoon looked at Hercules.
"However, you did good enough."
The domain began shattering around them.
Cracks spread through the entire dimension until it broke apart.
Konsoon teleported back to the same place.
He stood in front of a massive structure that looked almost like a house.
The Dracula tomb.
Konsoon placed his hand against its surface.
He stood there silently.
Tai Yang walked alongside Cardo.
"Tell me, do you think we're going to find out who did this?"
Cardo looked at him.
"Maybe."
"What do you mean by 'maybe'? You sound so clueless."
Tai suddenly sensed something.
"Watch out!"
He looked behind them. The bushes were moving.
Tai looked toward them.
"Hey! Come out!"
He walked toward the bushes.
Suddenly, a deer jumped out and ran away.
Tai stared at it.
"Okay?"
The deer disappeared into the distance.
Tai sighed and caught his breath.
"Phew…"
Then the bushes moved again.
Tai looked at them.
"What?"
This time, he recklessly put his hand into the bushes.
Suddenly—
CHOMP!
Something bit his hand.
"What?! AHHHH!"
Tai pulled his hand back.
It was a very small child hiding in the bushes.
Tai stared at him.
"?"
"What the hell?"
He looked at the child in confusion.
"Hey, kid! What the hell are you doing here?"
For a moment, Tai's movements became completely ridiculous as he tried to figure out what had just happened.
Cardo looked at the child.
"Is this your friend?"
"My friend? If he were my friend, why would he bite me?"
Tai grabbed the child and threw him aside.
The child backed away and looked at Tai.
"Are you the intruder who kidnapped my parents?"
Tai looked confused.
"What? No! Why the hell would I do that? I'm here for the first time."
Tai Yang looked at the child.
"Anyways, tell me… what's your name?"
The child looked at him.
"Faman."
"Oh? Nice name, I'm gonna say."
Cardo suddenly looked toward the trees.
He sensed someone.
Without saying anything, he quickly moved in front of Tai.
Tai Yang looked at him.
"What's wrong?"
Cardo didn't reply.
Then, after a moment, he said,
"Nothing. We should move on right now. This place might have some risks."
Tai looked confused.
"Huh? You think so? Because of animals?"
He laughed.
"Come on. It was just a deer. I'm not scared of animals here. Besides, we can handle anything scary."
Tai continued walking.
"Also, I already defeated that Bear-Headed Human—C-2-whatever his name was. I defeated him!"
Cardo kept walking without responding.
Tai suddenly realized Cardo was getting farther ahead.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
Tai ran after him while holding Faman's hand.
Faman looked at him.
"Wha—?"
Tai continued walking alongside Cardo.
Scene Shift
Konsoon raised one hand.
Blood was dripping from his palm.
He had stabbed his own hand with his Diabolic Sword, letting his blood fall onto Dracula's tomb.
Konsoon spoke calmly.
"Blood Bond has been forsaken in this land."
His blood began filling the holes and cracks within the tomb.
Viktor and Remji arrived.
Konsoon didn't even look at them.
"You two came?"
Suddenly, strange colors began appearing around the tomb—violet, yellow, and red.
A figure began forming.
It looked like someone wearing armor, sitting upon a throne.
It was a projection created through magic.
The figure slowly became clearer.
Then the projection revealed the world around him.
It was Dracula.
The scene shifted into a flashback.
A young child was in the garden, playing among the surroundings.
He was playing in the field when he saw his mother and father.
"Hey, Mother! See, I'm here! Look!"
His mother smiled.
"Oh, my little boy. Yeah, I can see you."
The boy continued playing in the field.
His father looked at him.
"I'm going to work."
His mother smiled and said,
"Take care. Be well, my dearest!"
The boy continued playing, unaware of what was going to happen next.
The boy continued playing in the field.
Then he saw his mother nearby, pouring water over the fields.
Vlad was playing with a bird when it suddenly flew away.
His mother looked toward him.
"Vlad, don't go too far over there. You might get lost."
Vlad looked at her and smiled.
"Don't worry."
"I'll be fine, Mother."
Vlad continued playing with the bird.
After a while, the bird flew away.
A gentle wind flowed through the field, brushing against Vlad's hair.
Vlad looked up at the sky.
Vlad looked up at the sky.
Then he saw a boy standing there, accompanied by his servant.
The boy smiled.
"Hey there, Vlad."
Vlad looked at him.
"Mehmed? It's you again."
The boy's name was revealed to be Mehmed.
Mehmed smiled.
"Tell me, where should we go? Somewhere we can play?"
Vlad smiled.
"How about we play the stone game?"
Mehmed smiled back.
"Sounds good."
Vlad and Mehmed went over to the stones to play.
Vlad picked up a stone and threw it.
"Here I go!"
Mehmed quickly stopped the stone.
The servant looked worried.
"Prince, this might be dangerous. Playing around with stones like this isn't safe. We shouldn't do this."
Mehmed looked at him.
"I'll be fine. This is what we do."
Both of them continued playing together.
As time passed, the sun slowly began to set. The sky turned orange as the evening arrived.
Vlad and Mehmed finally stopped playing and looked toward the sunset.
Then, something happened.
Both of them continued playing together.
As time passed, the sun slowly began to set.
Then, Vlad noticed something burning in the distance.
Smoke was rising from the direction of his house.
Vlad looked at it carefully.
"What?"
He suddenly realized where the smoke was coming from.
"Wait… no. Mother!"
Vlad immediately started running toward his house.
Mehmed noticed Vlad running and followed him.
"Prince!" the servant called out as he ran after Mehmed.
Mehmed continued running toward Vlad.
"Mother!"
Vlad ran as fast as he could toward his house.
Vlad kept running toward his house, but when he arrived, he saw that the entire house was burning.
"Mother…! What happened to you?!"
Vlad began crying as he looked at the burning house.
Mehmed stood nearby, staring at the flames. He started moving toward the fire, but his servant quickly grabbed him and held him back.
"What?! Let me go!" Mehmed shouted.
"Prince, we must leave! You are in danger. This could be dangerous for you!" the servant said, trying to pull him away.
"Let me go!" Mehmed shouted again.
"Let me go!" Mehmed shouted.
"Prince, this is dangerous for you! You cannot go in there!" the servant said, holding him back.
"Let me go!" Mehmed shouted again.
Meanwhile, Vlad stood in front of his burning house, watching the flames consume it.
He could only stand there and watch. There was nothing he could do.
Vlad stood there, crying as he watched his house burn.
"What's really happening…?" he asked himself.
"Why me…? Why is this happening to me?"
He continued crying, unable to do anything as the flames consumed his home.
As time passed, night arrived. The entire house had burned to ashes.
Vlad stood among the remains, looking around.
But his father still hadn't returned home.
"Where… where is my father?" Vlad asked, his voice trembling.
He looked around, hoping to find him somewhere.
"Where are you, Father…?"
Vlad looked at the remains of his house.
Days passed, but nobody came.
Vlad grew increasingly sad as he continued living alone. He walked around, searching for food wherever he could find it.
After walking for a while, his strength finally gave out.
He fell to his knees.
From Vlad's first-person perspective:
I touched the ground with my trembling hand, completely exhausted.
My vision began to blur.
The sounds around me started glitching, and the memory itself became distorted.
Everything grew unclear as the scene began to break apart.
The flashback ended.
Back at Dracula's tomb, Konsoon smiled slightly.
"I see. Pretty interesting memory."
Konsoon looked at the tomb.
"It's pretty common to have these types of memories," he said calmly.
Remji then sealed Dracula's body, while Viktor cut open the tomb.
Inside, Dracula's body was in a terrible condition. After a thousand years, it had deteriorated considerably.
Remji proceeded to seal the body.
Konsoon looked at it and smiled.
"Now, this body will be mine soon."
Scene ends
