"Good night ladies and gentlemen, tonight we all gather here for a very important announcement, yes tonight we welcome a new member of the family, as you all have known, out of the seven seats I alone since the dawn of my birth have never sired someone directly for the past sixty million plus years, however, that changes today, my loyal vassal, today we come together for a grand event, yes today we all come here to welcome my first and most likely my last Kilde, please give a round of applause for your new young master that I share a bound with, Merciless Minerva Elderblood II."
Michelle announces with a charismatic smile on his face.
From there, claps could be heard from around the table, as everyone clap their hands with vigor excited to have a new member of the family.
Honestly, it felt weird, to be recognized like this Merciless thought, seeing that it was an experience like no other, to say the least, Michelle then look at him as he said.
"Merciless."
"Ah yes, Michelle?"
"I brought you here to introduce you to the upper echelon of the Elderblood clan, so let's get right down to business, take this as another lesson, vampires might be immortal however we do not like wasting time, so let's keep this introduction short and simple ok, however, you may have five minutes to talk with your two seat partners besides you, get to know them a little?"
He said with his legs crossed, the butler beside him then gave him a cigar as he pass some wisdom on to me, and it wasn't long before the scent of fermented tobacco could be smelled within the vicinity.
Truly a tempting smell, after all, Merciless though, he might be undead but his mortal bad habits definitely came with him.
Even looking around him as he eyes down the other vampires that were present here, he could tell the feeling was mutual, after all, everyone was either drinking what Merciless assume to be wine or blood, maybe both, if not they partaking in a much-needed smoke break.
At this sight he could relate, now that he thinks about it, he wanted a smoke one of his good old packs, Finn seem caught on. He then called out to Merciless.
"Here young blood, I presume you are an avid smoker."
Finn said as he pull out a familiar box.
It mark Pandora, when he saw the brand he sweat and said.
"Is that really Pandora luxury cigarettes?"
"Ohhh culture indeed ha young blood, yes here you can take the remainder I have more stash away."
Pandora was a well-known company, they sold not only luxury cars, clothes, and homewares, but also expensive luxury items, one of them being a treat among the wealthy.
One box of these Luxury cigarettes costs $5,000 which is 500$ per cigarette a total of ten comes in the box.
That was something he couldn't afford.
So to finally be able to try them despite being a broke nobody just yesterday was more than a treat indeed.
He of course indulge, in it, the cigarette itself was gold and black.
*Inhaaaales!*
The moment Merciless hits one, he could already feel his mind calming down. And without a doubt, these were more than worth it, if anything he is a fan.
"You like it haaaa? Hahaha... Yeah, I know you would, after all, there are lace with vampire blood."
Finn casually says as he exhales circular smoke from his mouth. Meanwhile, Merciless was surprised at the revelation as he ask with a tint of surprise.
"What... Are you serious?"
"As serious as serious can be young blood."
"Why though?"
"Well it's simple really, you see Pandora is a brand to humans, but in the vampire world, Pandora is actually the name of one of the 14 Saquats households."
"Saquats, what's that?"
"They are referred to as vampires that were once a part of the seven original clans but have grown strong enough to make their own clans outside the original seven after they are blessed with their own unique bloodline from the vampire king, but any clan or any vampire from the clan that steps away from the seven original is referred to as Saquats."
"Saquats is a slander word the seven originals, and the vampires apart from the top seven clans call them, but technically speaking they are nothing but fake progenitor, and wannabee vampires who betray the hands that feed them to start a clan of their own."
Finn commented with an uninterested look in his eyes, it would seem Saquats were truly hated amongst the seven clans.
"But they are still vampires right?"
"Undoubtedly sad to say, but they are nothing but a cheap imitation in terms of special bloodline, look Saquats are vampires, yes, but when it comes to power they will never rival the seven originals."
"So have the Elderblood clan ever produce a Saquat clan head before?"
"Yeah dozen of them actually, however, all of them die by the seventh hand as soon as they are born, however only two manage to escape, you will learn about them later, it's not something we talk about as it is bad for business."
"And also."
Finn whispered as he came close to Merciless ears and said while looking at Morgan.
"Lady Fay is the sire of that Saquat, so can we not talk about it around her, just look at her, she is clearly pissed, since she has been reminded about her greatest disappointment."
At those words, Merciless looked at the side of him, and he was surprised to see the heavy and potent dark aura leaking from her as her face distorted into a horrendous mess of pure horror, if looks can kill everyone here would have died many times over.
With that said, he look back at Finn and nod his head in agreement.
Meanwhile Michelle out of respect made Merciless have a little bonding time with his new brethren as he said.
"Merciless I presume you are finished?"
"Yes, Michelle I am, I also learn something new."
"Good. Good. Now then, let's move on to businesses for real this time, for starters, everyone here is going to be your teacher, for the next 150 years, you see in the vampire community 100 years mean nothing to us, but first and foremost let me introduce you to your six elders, of the clan, all of which have the title of Arch, and like you a true vampire."
"Ok."
Merciless said, to which Michelle nods his head, and pointed to a familiar member.
"Since you already talk to one the oldest members of the clan, let me reintroduce you to Lady Fay, she has been a part of the Elderblood clan for more than 20,000 years already, although the youngest of the elders she is very knowledgeable in the Arcane arts, she is unique in the sense she knows various technique for the mere fact she was apart of the nine orders of the fairies. She will be your magic teacher and will aid you in how to use my bloodline magic since it's rather unique and it requires a certain level of arcane knowledge to be fully used in combat."
Merciless looked at Morgan and said with a smile.
"I will be in your care lady Fay, please be patient with me."
"No worries Merciless darling, im sure both I and you will get along just fine hahaha... who knows what these next 150 years together might lead."
She winks seductively while fixing her hair.
Throwing Merciless off a little bit to which he laughed off, however, Michelle then continued.
"Next we have the 5th oldest, he will be teaching you how to fight with various weapons, please meet, Archduke Ragnar Lothbrok of the Lothbrok family, a great elder, whose family joined the Elderblood clan 150,000 years ago, but he succeeded his father my old friend Sigurd Lothbrok 70,399 years ago after he was killed by that damn witch of Vigor, and since then he has been one of my most loyal vassals."
Merciless then looks in the direction of the person Michelle referred to as Ragnar Lothbrok, he was a large man, even larger than Finn who was a giant, Ragnar was shirtless, you could see his muscles with ease, and his body was filled with so many tribal tattoos as well, he was bald but his yellow beard was plaited neatly and it was excessively long.
Around him was the fur coat of what seemed to be made from the hide of a giant white wolf, although he did wear fur boots as well, along with silky red Varangian trousers clearly of Viking descent, he looked at Merciless and smiled showing his thick and sharp fangs, and said.
"My name is Ragnar, son of Sigurd, an honor to meet you."
His introduction was short, although Merciless replied as such.
"It's nice to meet you too Ragnar, my name is Merciless, son of Orion, Bloodkin of Michelle, I hope we can get along in the future."
"The feeling is mutual."
"Hahaha, of course, I expect to be taught thoroughly, I do have my own dreams as well that can only be solved with murder and violence, and again nice to meet you, Ragnar."
Ragnar smiles like a lunatic his left hand to his heart and bowed while saying.
"Zalabas Fa Laja!"
Merciless nod his head in recognition as his attention went back to Michelle as he said.
Michelle nods his head before turning it to a young woman.
"Next we have the person that will be your biology teacher, honestly I was going to hire more modern ones, but after telling her about your Heart force, she became intrigued with its potential, this person will be the person you will be spending most of your time with when we send you to hunt, and before you ask what the hunt is, refrain from doing so as she will explain to you when the time is right, please meet Archduchess Beatrice Higimatra my fourth in command, Sire of Morgan Le Fay, she older than both Morgan and Ragnar, if my memory serves me right I made her A Dampa about five million plus years ago, she doesn't look much, but trust me behind that cuteness is a terrifying creature that makes angels shit themselves, a nameless monster the has seen many eras of old."
Upon saying that Merciless looks in Beatrice's direction. She was beside Ragnar, and it was as Michelle said it was a cute young woman with a large bust. She was dressed in very outdated clothing a ball dress was the best way to describe it, one would normally see this in the medieval era, her dress was red and black, slightly gothic in design with a tint of Gen Z fashion. Her hair was blond just like Morgan, however, her eyes were a light sky blue, with menacing bright blue iris just like the rest, and her skin was clear, to be honest, she doesn't look like a vampire at all, she looks more alive than anyone here, her dress was long enough drag on the ground, meanwhile she had a giant red bow tied around her waist and on her hair.
When Merciless gazed at her, he felt slightly uncomfortable, it wasn't because of her aura or anything it was just that she felt and look human. The only thing that signals she is a vampire is the fact that her iris was that particular color.
However, she had a very mature voice, and despite that cuteness.
"*Chuckle!* *Chuckle!* your quite the specimen are you young lord?"
It truly throws Merciless off guard, but what made slight shivers run up his spine was when her eyes turned blood red, getting rid of the color of her iris as if she casually left the clan, or that's what it look like to Merciless.
"Fufufu... You realize it didn't you, the potential of us biotypes, hahaha... Good... Good... I like you... Let's go on a date tonight."
"A-A... Date?"
"Of course, the night is still young you know... Trust me you won't regret it."
"Ahhh... Hahaha... Sure if im not busy later of course."
However, Beatrice looks at Michelle and asks.
"Miiii lord. Can I have to boy tonight?"
Michelle gave Beatrice a rather serious look, before answering.
"Where are you taking him?"
"To the Barra!"
Beatrice answered, meanwhile the other gave Merciless a rather questionable look.
"I see, hmmm... I would like to hand him over to you but give him a day or two to adjust."
"Is that so, *sigh!* Zalabas Fa Laja!"
Beatrice commented, meanwhile, she got up bored as if tired of the meeting already, she then said while using her finger to rise Merciless's head to meet her eyes, as she said.
"Next time we meet, we're going to have a lot of fun ok."
She said while licking her lips in a creepy yet seductive manner.
Merciless was a little nervous about her being so close, but he gulp as he said respectfully.
"Sure, Ms. Beatrice, I will await your call."
Satisfied with Merciles response she smile and said.
"Hahaha. Well then it's a date, tata for now young lord."
With that said Beatrice began to dissolve into her own shadow which soon disappears as well, the others seem used to this and didn't pay it any mind.
Albeit Morgan did sigh with slight annoyance to her sire.
The same could be said about Michelle, but he didn't pay it any mind, instead, he pointed towards another elder.
"Merciless, this old man here is called Archduke Murphy Lawdian of the lawdian family, which is one of the biggest families of the vampire society, ranked 3rd in power within the Elderblood clan, of course, it is among the nobles of the clan, he is one of my oldest friends, so much so before the concepts of clans were even a thing among us vampires, he has always been by my side, he will be responsible for teaching you the art of Alchymia, trust me as a vampire we have plenty of weakness those damn witches exploit, learning Alchymia will be hard, but the pay off once full mastered will definitely be worth it."
However, Merciless was confused and asked Michelle.
"Am what's Alchymia?"
The person to answer his question was surprisingly Murphy as he bowed his head in respect and said.
"Alchymia is the ancient practice of Alchemy, but we don't use the modern terms as fictional alchemy you see on tv these days, as any ancient and professional Alcada would know that is not real Alchemy, turning lead to gold, or breathing life into something is just the tip of the iceberg, real Alchymia is the study of constructs young Merciless."
Upon hearing this, Merciless was intrigued, and he asked.
"So it's like creation and manipulation of shapes and their properties, essentially a form of reality warping am I right?"
"Indeed it is, but constructs don't stop at just matter either, it goes way beyond that as Alchymia surpasses even the imagination, but apart from that, I'm looking forward to your company young Merciless, I believe the two of us will accomplish great things together in the future."
Announce Murphy with an honest smile.
Merciless returned a smile of equal virtue, as he responded as such.
"As do I Master Murphy, I can't wait to dwell in the arts of Alchymia, you have my full attention and support."
Michelle could see a rather interesting bond between the two already and smile while saying.
"I see you two might end up being very close friends as well hehehe... I really look forward to your future Merciless, hahaha... Ahhhh. Oh well, moving on to the 2nd rank among the Elderblood nobles, this one is for a better lack of words interesting, seeing she has killed more gods and demons than they are humans on this Hexamore, this woman will be responsible for teaching you hand-to-hand combat, along with various martial arts, killing art, torture methods, and many things that have to relate to warfare, please meet the #1 female warrior within the entire vampire race with a body count that made even the vampire king question his title as the lord of murder ... Hahaha... Scáthach if you may please introduced yourself to your next Cu."
