Chapter 7 - The Bonds of Fate / New System Functions

When Zachariah first laid eyes on Anastasia, he felt an attraction to her that he had never felt before. 'Why do I feel an unnatural attraction to someone I just met'? Zachariah thought to himself. Then a notification appeared in his quest page that left him shocked.

Current Quest: The Bonds of Fate

Description:

Fate is a mysterious thing, people often think that fate is something unfair when in reality, fate is the balance of all things. You were supposed to meet your fated one in your previous life, but you were killed before you got the chance. So Lilith decided to aid you by reincarnating your fated one to your current world. She is weak right now, but if you turn her into your kin, you'll share everlasting life and an unbreakable bond.

Turn Your Fated One Into Your Kin: 0/1

[Rewards]

???

'Those cruel bastards even took away my chance at happiness, the right thing to do then would be to take away theirs when i return'. Zachariah thought to himself.

*The events that took place afterwards are in the previous chapter*

"Thank you Lord Nosferatu, or should I say Zachariah. I now know you will definitely keep your promise. I hope you will treat me well, and i also hope that one day you'll allow me to stand by your side as you save our people". When Zachariah heard those words, he knew he made the right choice. He then replied with a warm smile, "You are my bride now, so of course I will make you the happiest woman in the world, and you'll always have a place at my side, no matter what".

Anastasia felt like fate was at work here, and she couldn't have been more right. The moment Zachariah said those words it confirmed the feeling she had also had towards him the moment they met.

They then realized they were still in the forest with the elves he had rescued, when they heard a loud wolfs howl. So the shocked elves and the two lovebirds decided to Make a quick camp and sleep until the next night.

Since both Vampires were nocturnal, Zachariah and Anastasia would sleep during the day. Zachariah decided he would check his rewards for the quest he finished.

[Rewards]

{clan} and {Store} tabs unlocked.

300 system points.

Unholy resistance skill.

"Hey Belphagor, I can understand what the Clan tab is for, but what is the store tab"? Zachariah asked with a curious tone.

[I'm glad you asked my lord!]

[Using system points that you earn from leveling up and finishing quests, you can upgrade your skills or spells, or you can buy items from the shop! Each item is unique to you and your clan so nobody else can even hope to copy it. You can also upgrade your soul bound weapon using system points.]

"I see, thank you Belphagor".

[Your welcome my lord, happy to help.]

Zachariah decided to check out the store right away.

[Store]

Instant Teleportation Spell: 30,000 SP

Daemon Lord Attire: 20,000 Sp

Way of the Nosferatu Cultivation Technique: 10,000 SP

Bands of Fate: 200 SP

Almost everything in the store was out of his price range, except for the bands of fate which would use most of his System Points.

He decided to check the description of the bands of fate because it looked like an item that was eerily tailored for both himself and Anastasia.

{Bands of Fate} (Unique):

The bands of fate are a unique pair of rings that can only be worn by two people who are bonded by fate. It allows those who wear them to sense each others locations and speak to each other through the link the rings provide. It also allows the wearers to share power between each other through long distances. (WARNING: Once you put the rings on, they cannot be removed.)

Zachariah Immediately bought them without hesitation. He went over to his new wife to talk to her about the rings. "Anastasia, I would like to give you a gift to celebrate our marriage. These rings will allow us to know where each other are at all times, and allow us to speak to each other anytime. I can also share power with you wherever you are with these rings. However once you put it on you cannot take them off ever again. I Understand if you-". He was immediately cut of by Anastasia. "Yes, I absolutely will put it on! anything given to me by my husband i will wear without question because i know you would never do anything to harm me! and also because I love you"... The last part she said a little quieter but Zachariah still heard it because of his heightened senses as a vampire.

"I also love you and will do everything in my power to protect you and your people"!

He said as he slid the ring onto his wife's finger, he then put on his ring. They both then saw each others past memories and felt more connected by fate then they did before. They felt like fate was smiling at them, as they kissed each other one last time before the rising sun.
