Narrator's POV:
"Alright, enough talking... What matters now is our Alu boy here is fine..."
- Knight (3) reassures.
*Alucard didn't respond again*
*pat!*
"Don't worry lad, we promised that Jay will going to pay what he did to you. Mark our words."
- Knight (1) said enthusiastically.
Most of the knights surrounding Alucard are in a complete silence afterwards. The silence is deafening but soon cut-off when Alucard stand up on his chair, looking all energetic.
*Alucard laughs in a pirate like way*
*all were confused*
"Arrrr!! I'm a LONE HERO who traversed throughout the Land of Dawn!"
- Alucard shouts in a pirate accent.
*comical confusion of the Knights around him*
When they heard what Alucard just said, all knights' attention here the Lobby draws directly towards him.
Alucard stands top of the Table and start making a funny poses where emphasizing boldness.
"I may be lone but mark my words, you piece of sh*ts!!!!"
- Alucard yells confidentially.
*quack!*
"Never understimate the Lone one or face thy punishment!!!!"
- Alucard yells as he points every knights inside the Lobby.
All knights within the lobby are wondering towards the sudden commotion initiated by the young boy. At that very moment, an awkward silence occurred within the area.
Erickson, who felt uneasy upon seeing the crowd enters the scene.
*awkward laughter*
"So... Sorry for the ruckus everyone! Ahaha! This is the impression of this young kiddo when he is hungry.. ahah!"
- Erickson awkwardly said despite the embarrassment.
After Erickson fools the confused crowd, he then faces the young boy as he offered the food.
"He... here young Alu, take a look at this... This is a beef steak. The today's special menu...."
- Erickson offered the dish towards Alucard.
*Alucard ignored*
"You're the luckiest person to ever taste this special cuisine here. Have a bite and you will surely be in heaven."
- Erickson pats Alucard in his shoulder.
When Erickson pats Alucard's shoulder, the boy distance himself and started to act aggressively.
*shove off*
"F*CK OFF you lowly fat *ss*d piece sh*t!!?"
- Alucard curses, funnily.
*Erickson flinched*
"Don't you dare lay any hands on me, you f*ck*ng *ssh*l*! Grovel down and kissed my magnificent foot... Beg for apology as you can, ahahah! Aaarr!!!"
- Alucard points at Erickson while in a Pirate like accent.
*crow of awkwardness*
"Ha???"
- Erickson wondered.
When Erickson is in a state of comical confusion, another mild headache strikes our boy.
*groan*
The rest of the knights surrounding Alucard started to get worried towards him. Meanwhile, another knight came by. The knight grabbed the glass of milk in he table.
"Hello there, young sir. I am Karim. I heard from my colleagues that your favorite drink is Cow's Milk. Have a look of what I brought for you."
- Karim said formally.
*Alucard blinks funnily*
"Eating or drinking dairy products such as cow's milk is good for the body, especially at your age. It'll make your bones strong and sturdy!"
- Karim formally said.
*Alucard blinks again*
"Care to drink, young sir? I can assure you, this cow's milk is fresh and delicious to drink."
- Karim persuades Alucard to drink milk.
Karim generously lend the Cow's Milk to the hallucinating Alucard. As for the kid's part, before Karim lends the glass, Alucard's point of view is, Karim materializes as a warlock, who's brewing some potion.
A brewing process where deadly potion mixed and pour it in his magical flask. The content of the flask colored reddish, and it seems it's boiling from heat.
Upon seeing some henious trickery, Alucard gone triggered and he stepped back away from Karim.
"Warlock, I'll no longer fall for your rubbish trickery as I, VISCOUNT of the Blood Demon Tribe can smell your wicked schemes!"
- Alucard confidently said as he points out his hand towards Karim.
*Karim's confused*
"I may lower than an Earl, but my capabilities far exceeds from my those b*llsh*ts!"
- Alucard enthusiastically said as he puts his firm fist on his chest.
*knights surrounding Alucard gotten confused too*
As ruckus continues, some knights within the lobby are gossiping.
"Hey? Ya listening bro?"
- Knight (1) who's holding his Ale.
"Yes, mate. I'm all ears."
- Knight (2) who's eating his Drumstick Friend Turkey with gravy sauce.
"Ya heard that lil' brat's nonsensical speech?"
- Knight (1) drinks his Ale after he ask.
*knight (2) continue eating his food*
".. Do you know what's a Viscount?.."
- Knight (1) puts down his Ale because he is serious.
When the other knight heard his question, he gasps and cough due to a surprise.
"Hey, hey?? Ya okay there mate?"
- Knight (1) with ale ask in a concerned way.
The other knight ignores his question and decided to drink his Ale in a hurry.
*sigh of relief*
"What the hell?? Don't ask something like I don't fricking know!"
- Knight (2) answered with an irritated tone on his voice.
"Oh, sorry about that mate... But you know, that Alu brat sure does amazing but kinda weird."
- Knight (1) with ale said.
*Knight (2) is listening*
"I don't even know anymore what the heck is that brat been bragging all about. And... Oh?? By the way, when did he learn to use foul words?"
- Knight (1) with ale ask.
"D*mn? You just noticed? He's been talking that way for almost a month already."
- Knight (2) continue eating his Drumstick fried turkey.
*quack!*
"Ya serious???!"
- Knight (1) reacts in a funny way.
. . .
- - - Back at Alucard - - -
"Mark my words, you schemer!... Try any suspicious actions as I can suck you dry like bloodless corpse with my four sharpen teeth."
- Alucard shows off his white and glossy teeth of his.
*chomp!* *chomp!*
*crow of awkwardness*
Alucard flexes his nice, white teeth of his. The knights fell into complete silence as they tried to process what's the boy been talking about this whole time.
The young boy noticed the chattering crowd, therefore, he stomped the table to get the crowd's attention.
"WHAT?! Oooh hohoho?? You all think I can't suck his blood?! HAHAHAA!!! F*CK YOU ALL!!? Don't compare me with that SH*T *SS*D Earl, I'm not picky!!!"
- Alucard smirk and show his teeth once again.
After Alucard finishes what he wanted to say, Erickson and Karim, the two knights who offered young Alucard, put the foods they brought into the table where he stand.
Karim and Erickson gone worried about him, especially he is talking weird all of a sudden. They exchange look for a moment and then they started to ask the boy.
"Young sir, please we beg of you, please eat something to sustain your hunger which now disrupts your mentality. You may become crazy if you don't eat."
- Karim begs.
*funny stern look of Alucard*
"Young Alu, please listen to us... We beseech you."
- Erickson begs too.
As the knights continue talking and begging Alucard. In boy's perspective; (1) Erickson as a Crewmate in a Pirate Ship, and (2) Karim as Warlock, starts to shift form again in Alucard's vision.
Alucard cannot take blurry eyesight so he rubbed his eyes and then, he take another moment to see again.
When he finally sees them, he's surprised... In his perspective, he saw another creature, and this time, its the great Minotaurs from the Minoan Labyrinth.
*Alucard funny shocked moment*
Alucard started to wonder why the Minotaurs ( Erickson and Karim ) are mini versions since the Minotaurs he have known are gigantic and muscular.
Erickson and Karim didn't give up on begging Alucard but the boy just smiled and laugh.
The Knight who grabbed Jay's neck earlier glares at him.
"Look what you've done you *ssh*l*...?"
- Knight with a scar on his scalp down to his chin said.
"Ahahahah! I guess I went too far for a kid... Sorry about that."
- Jay pretentiously apologized.
. . .
When the knight who glares at Jay shifted his attention to Alucard, he lets out a serious yet intimidating sensation carved in his expression.
- - - Back at Shadow Swamp - - -
In the depths of the Shadow Swamp forest, Tigreal is lying near the edge of the forest.
Tigreal is soundly asleep on the floor. Meanwhile, an anteater came by and stick its long-ish tongue to Tigreal's nose. Tigreal felt the itching sensation coming from his nose. So, he suddenly woke up.
*Tigreal gasps*
Tigreal looked around and the moment he saw the anteater who's sticking its tongue to his nose, both of them exchange looks for a minute.
*funny blinking noises*
Tigreal looks a bit pissed and he then slapped the anteater in a comical way.
*SLAP!*
The anteater left as it lets out a tears of sadness in its eyes.
. . .
Tigreal's POV:
D*mn! I was having a great moment back in my dreams but all of a sudden, it ended when that f*ck*ng anteater just stick its tongue on my nose...
*tch!*
Like... What the f*ck?? Did that creature think my nosetril as an ant hole or something???
Geez!!!
. . .
*sigh*
. . .
*Tigreal looks around the place*
Oh yeah? What happened and... Where the heck am I this time?
*Tigreal processes his thoughts*
Ooh? I remembered! I was talking with that One eyed creature named... Uumm.... Gloo perhaps?
*Tigreal lifts his head up*
Uumm.... If that memories of mine serves me right, I was inside a dark and eerie looking environment back when I was talking to that cute Gloo.... And....
. . .
And....
*Tigreal remembered facing a Gigantic Gloo behind him earlier*
. . .
I saw a Behemoth Giant version of... Gloo... And I lose consciousness afterwards.
*Tigreal putting up his hand on his chin, emphasizing that he is thinking*
I wonder what happened after I lose consciousness. What did that creature do and-
*gasps*
WHERE'S MY MENTOR'S SWO-!!?
. . .
My sudden uneasiness sensation overwhelms me as I remembered my Mentor's sword.
I looked everywhere, just for the sake of searching for that sword. I look and look, my anxiousness grows even bigger that made me frightened and paranoid.
I moved my hands as I kept my head up, not bothering to look below me.
*shivering*
. . .
My thoughts started to generate images in regards to my fear... I felt scared, chilly, and... And...
I don't know anymore! But when my hand touched something like some sort of metallic object in my hand...
*surprised*
I looked where my touched hand is, and he saw my Mentor's sword, all unscathed.
I've never thought that relieved sensation droves away my fear, thus, I quickly grabbed the sword and embraced it.
"I thought I have lost you! If ever I lost this sword, it simply means that.... That I.... *sobbing*... I have failed my Mentor's last wishes too.. *sniff* I'm so glad.... I'm so glad!"
- I said as I firmly embraces the sword and cried out loud at the same time.
This relief... Enlightens my worried mind. The events that came after from my mistakes cannot be undone, but the last wish of my mentor shouldn't be wasted.
*Tigreal stand up*
I have to fulfill it... No matter what it takes...
*Tigreal man up and carried the sword with him*
I have to go back to the Moniyan Empire... its... its the least thing I can do... For now...
. . .
Narrator's POV:
Tigreal walked towards portion of the forest where Sun shines. He's expression which is filled with anxiousness before is now replaced with determination.
As Tigreal walks, Cute Gloos are watching him behind the trees and bushes. They kept on watching him until Tigreal left the vicinity of the Shadow Swamp.
A stern looking Gloo boing~boing its way while looking at Tigreal from afar.
"Mr. Stranger..... Continue to walk along the path which fate has given you.... Fulfill your role well as I do mine."
- stern looking Gloo said.
"If fate is kind enough to cross our path again, I hope that you... The Mr. Stranger who's been involved in an tragic event, which causes a scar that forever instilled within you, will surely become a fine and strong man someday and also, meet each other in the same environment."
- stern looking Gloo said as it watches Tigreal disappeared in a far distance.
*other cute Gloos start to leave and head towards the Shadow Swamp forest*
"Be strong... And become one of the fighter who can withstand the turbulence of fate."
- stern looking Gloo said as it starts to head towards the forest.
After the stern looking Gloo finishes its words towards the leaving Tigreal, Gloo left and rendezvous with the rest of their kind.
As for Tigreal, he kept moving forward towards the Moniyan Empire and head towards Lumina City to report back to The Light's Order about their mission.
