Chapter 10 - Meeting Someone Interesting

(POV Of the Gorgeous black hair lady Seer saw at the end of the last chapter)

(Before she went off to Gavillna)

"My lady, please let us investigate the rumor before you go out and confirm if it is true", Serena said.

"It is fine Serena, she has been a precious friend and a great teammate", the lady said.

"But Venessa, if you go there without notice the kingdom might not take it kindly, it could also reflect poorly on your image," Serena said

"It's fine, now prepare for my departure and make sure no one causes trouble".

"But, uhhh, yes my lady".

As I prepare to leave on my carriage, I take one of my gifts from her with me, to help me find her from her scent. Vampires have a better sense of smell than werewolves, vampires have also evolved to be able to be out in the sun without dying, the stronger the vampire the less the sun affects them.

I hop into the carriage and set off to Gavillna. After I arrive I head into the capital and enter a cavern. The Cavern is called Bernius.

I ask for a commonwealth with milk, and then a different bartender comes out. This place is where info brokers can give you info for money.

I ask about the newest news about Elevena and what is going on with her and her family.

After I get the details that there was a terrible accident that set the whole manor on fire. The only one that survived was Elevena, and after that, she serve her king.

She said to me "Even when we are apart sometime in the future we will all get back together, so make sure you don't serve under anyone".

I know she wouldn't wasn't a hypocrite so there must be more to it.

I also got a report that they held a funeral service for all the people who died, she attended and she looked so broken, I heard she was looking down the whole time, really unresponsive and always looked like she was crying.

That must mean she either had brainwashing magic placed on her but made it so she retained her emotions, or she had a really good reason to serve under the king.

I walk around the capital to go to the castle and I go to the office to make a formal request to see him. While walking back to a 5-star hotel I smell something similar and exquisite.

I go to look around for this smell, and the next thing I see is a 10-year-old child.

I see his dirt-covered hair, his ocean-green eyes, his clothes look likes hides just sown together, the out-of-place clean, and a fancy sword at his side. I am surprised he hasn't got robbed yet, but I start to get a stronger scent from him and I remember what Elevena wrote to me, she described her son, and the person in front sounds similar to the description she gave. I also saw him as a baby but the only thing that looks similar is the hair and eyes.

The next moment I pull out her pendant full of Elevena's blood and I sniff it and then sniff the kid, then sniffs the pendant.

I find out that both of them smell like each other.

So I decided to take him in for now and try to see if my instincts are correct.

(Seer POV)

I hear a lady call me and I turn around. The first thing she says to me is "Ara Ara, hey kid what is your name?"

He doesn't realize he was behind her and had sniffed him.

I reply to her "My name is Seer."

She says to me "ufffu uffu, would you like to come with me back to my manor to explain your situation."

I am very concerned because she is a mysterious person, but I don't know why I feel some nostalgia.

I ask her if her manor is in Gavillna and she replied: "ufffu you would be wrong if you think that". So I ask her why she wants me to go with her and the next reply caught me off, guard.

She said she was a Friend of Elevena, her name was Vanessa and wanted she wanted to know the situation and she wanted to meet me but after she heard she was the only survivor she got suspicious.

After hearing my mother's name I look down and frown.

The next moment I look up and she is giving me warm eyes.

It hurt me to see my mom like that but I will accept it, But I am at a loss I want her to give me feelings like my feelings with my mother, the love of family is what I could have, but I am scared, what if I lose her to even though we just met, if one of her friend dies because of me I would feel even worse.

I don't know how to feel anymore, but her taking me in might help me sort out our feelings.

So I say yes and I explain to her what happened on that day.

I tell her that someone killed everyone and set fire to our house using the firestone and making it a "bad accident".

The next moment when I explained everything I was in her carriage and by the end of it I was crying and she was hugging me. I also explain crucial information, the fact I saw my mother get stabbed in the chest, and die.

I ended up getting to know more about her on the carriage trip.

She was a patriarch for one of the 5 houses that rule over the vampires. Another thing I learned is that mom and she was part of a five-women group at Secarlla. They were known as the unfightable five, they were the strongest students and they were all from different continents and different races.

While she was explaining this she set me down on her lap. The warmth of her thighs made me feel like mom was here again, it made me sad but also happy that she was willing to let me sit on her lap, just showing this much warmth and love is helping me accept the fact that she died. It helped so much, just that little action made me so happy, my emotions are fluctuating so much that I don't know how to feel.
