Chapter 1 - the wish

i open my eyes

i breathe

....how long has it been... since i felt something other than infinite pleasure...? swimming in infinite pleasure, that i became exhausted out of it... so much pleasure that it started to drown me down... suffocating me for so long that... i wished to feel something else...

and "he" granted my wish

the smell of filth and rot filled my nose... i tried to look around yet i failed to see anything, it perhaps was due to me being born just recently... my ears were full of liquid and I couldn't hear anything...

after a long while of being motionless i felt some sort of 'hand' picking me up

(author note : the words spoken in {::} are not understood by the mc)

{:oh? what is a vampire infant doing here?... oh so you are the sole survivor of the pure bloods extermination aren't you?:} the owner of the voice asked but he wasn't expecting any answer

{:... so you were born out of a dead vampire... that's is going to affect you in some way... yet to think you survived for such reasons... ironic isn't it?:} the man said while cutting the umbilical cord

i felt an extra weight getting cut from my body, than i felt the man hugging me

{:well i was hoping for some small bits that the pure bloods had left... but to think i hit the jackpot? ahaha I couldn't even dream about it:} the man said while searching the bodies of the dead with his free hand, even if he had the best treasure in the world he wouldn't shy away from more treasures

while he was searching for valuable items he put his biggest achievement ever in a sack full of bladed weapons and valuable trash

his 'biggest achievement' started to wriggle around in the sack full of weapons, every part of her body was either cut, torn, or was stabbed yet, neither the man or his biggest achievement were bothered with it

the man simply was too busy filling the sack to the brim, while also thinking that the child wont die from them anyway, even if she was critically wounded she could recover from it

and the 'biggest achievement' wasn't bothered by it, in contrast, she was shedding silent tears out of happiness

'how long has it been since I last felt pain?', she thought while wriggling out of happiness

the man stopped filling his sack with treasures after a hour or two and started to think deeply about something

{:the other scavenger didn't come here yet... it was a genius idea to come here before them and get my hands on my "biggest achievement"... yet there are a good amount of relics that are considered useless to 'humans'... but what if... i can use them in some way...:} he man silently touched his sack and after a while he made his decision

he poured out all of the sack clean not caring for the huge amount of the blood on the expensive trash and his 'biggest achievement' miserable and pitiful looks, well he had the courtesy to give her a few drops of his drops, after all she was apart of his plan

he took the longest sword he could find and put it in the now empty sack, he looked around and found the mother of his 'biggest achievement', he torn away all of her clothing, he started searching her clothing's and her body through fully to find if the mother had left anything useful for her child

and it turns out he was right, the bitch really did left something useful, it was a golden wristband with a large ruby infused to it, the amount of runes and 'lines' on it were so great that the man couldn't help but look at it with twinkling eyes

(:'I cant really be sure with just this... but maybe maybe... this bitch was a vampire noble... that means my 'greatest achievement' is also a noble... oh god I cant think of the possibilities':), the man joyfully put the wristband with great care into the sack, he than proceeded to search all of the vampire bodies and he indeed did find a lot of stuff, he even dropped the long sword out of his sack and replaced with another black sword that was even longer

{:I'm investing this much into you my 'greatest achievement', so you better give more than just a mere immortality:} the man glanced at the pitiful body of the child while thinking about the possibilities

while he was getting ready to leave with the child his gaze met a box held into a vampires hand, he ran after the box like a small kid wondering what kind of great treasure might be hiding inside the treasure box

{:'is it a weapon? or is it a strengthening potion? or an artifact? maybe even gold...? the possibilities are infinite':} the man thought while kneeling to grab the box

but when he tried to pull the box out from the vampires grip, the vampire opened his eyes and stared at the man

{:you...:} the vampire tried his hardest to keep from fainting while uttering 11 words

{:she... is... your... responsibility....this... is... hers... a gift.... from... the... gods....:} the vampire died after uttering his last words and so did his grip on the box

the man who heard the vampires last wish couldn't help but fall to the ground... he was trembling from fright... what if that vampire killed him for treating his achievement too harshly? yet his worry faded as quick as the vampires life faded and what took over him was pure joy

{:i hit two jackpots today didn't I? this isn't just my biggest success its the biggest success a normal human could wish to have:} the man grabbed the box as quick as any human could have ever dreamt to do

the man opened the box faster than a a hungry child munching on stone, yet,,, his excitement died... no rather the thing he saw inside the box was too much for him to handle

{:what... in... the...:} the man stared at the light that was pouring of the box... the thing he was looking at was so rare that everyone including him thought only one of existed....

he forgot to breathe while staring at the 'object' it was... truly... mesmerizing

yet when he heard several foot steps he stopped staring at the 'object' and closed the box while running to grab his '2nd biggest achievement yet' he looked at the sleeping body and rather than throwing her inside his sack he picked her up and hugged her like she was his own child, while holding the box to his other hand with so much strength that his fingers started to bled

{:oh Gerhard there you are... to think you would run with full speed at a place the hunters have been at...:} one of the three scavengers said while looking at Gerhard

{:also not any hunter... but the pure blood ones..:} another scavenger said while avoiding the gaze of Gerhard

{:Sophia we all know that Gerhard beaten you to death, you should get over it:} the other man said yet his gaze fell to Gerhard... or more precisely he looked at Gerhards surrounding

every vampire corpse had their clothing and all valuable items missing from their bodies, he even gone out of his way to even search them through fully not leaving an speck of dust on their bodies well one did have clothes

yet the man knew Gerhard wasn't such pitiful bastard that would indulge in twisted pleasures, but what was even weirder was the fact that he did all of this so fast, in under 3 hours he had emptied over one hundred vampire... yet at his feet was hundreds of weapon that were assumedly the commoner vampire weapon, due to them being usable to humans and not cursing them... yet his huge sack was barely filled...and both of his hands were full

{:what the hell... are... those things in your hands:} Sophia stared at what Gerhard was holding she couldn't help it, Gerhard was known as someone who would treat everything he found harshly in his sack that was filled with guts and blood it being gold or copper

{:my biggest achievements ever, second only to my life:} Gerhard said without destination

{old man... I know its against the rules of the scavenger faction... yet do you mind... giving them to us?:} the first man said with hopeful eyes

{:hmm...im not a fan of selling my biggest achievements, also I'm going to be a lot more busy, but I'm willing to sell them to you at half the price:} Gerhard said while he walked towards a black screen to the left of the door that he and he other three came from

{:that's great, so let me leave the faction than:} the man said while touching the air with his fingers

{:there is no need... i will leave it myself:} Gerhard said, he then proceeded to move his eyes a weird manner

{:you also left the group... old man.. you said that you are going to be busy...:} the second man said with a worry in his eyes

{:john... I'm already soo old that you are calling me one without any ill intent... don't you think I deserve retirement?:} Gerhard said while he stared at the black screen to the left of the door

{:as you can see both of my hands are full... so can you help me with my last request before retirement?:} Gerhard said staring at the two things he was holding, the hand that was the box was bleeding since a while ago yet Gerhard didn't care about the bleeding

{:you... were like my grandfather...:} john said while starting to tear up

{:in this fucked up world you were the only one who-:} yet he was stopped before he could continue

{:BASTARD ITS NOT LIKE IM DEAD GO AND PAY ME RIGHT NOW:} Gerhard shouted with the greatest of annoyance in his voice, yet when he saw johns friend going to pay him using the black screen he couldn't help but be replace the frown on his face with a genuine smile

when johns friend finished the deal he turned to Gerhard and bowed down

{:thank you... while Sophia may not think of you greatly... you were the one who thought us everything... without you we would have died and-:}yet he was also cut in middle of his speech by Gerhard{:do I look like I care? well you gave my money... thanks errr-:}

{:my name is Hansel, Gerhard:} Hansel said with annoyance, how many times did this old bastard forgot his name

{:well than.. I guess we should part our ways:} Gerhard said with a smile

while Gerhard was walking out of the ruined mansion he heard Sophia calling to him

{:sir Gerhard... is that a child?:} Sophia asked with a lot of worry

{:no its a pineapple:} Gerhard said sarcastically

while leaving the trio behind he couldn't help but mumble to himself

{:those guys will die under a hour without me:}
