Dracula took the opportunity to attack him, but Lucca jumped, grabbed Julius and Larissa by the pull. Larissa let go and fell to the ground, but Lucca, at Dracula's gaze in the air, bit Julius's neck.
Lucca came ashore and laughing threw Julius into Dracula's arms.
-Take your son, hahahaha, I warned you
But Dracula hardly listened to him, he had his beloved son in his arms and he was dying with his neck torn and the damned, sadistic Dracula was crying, the cruelest being on earth was crying,
-Noooo, Julius, sonooo!
Julius raised his hand trembling and wiped away her tears saying
-I love you, father! "I love you as a son and I love you as my mother loved you," Julius said.
-I love you too son, my Julius! , sorry I couldn't protect you!
"You are the pulse in my veins father, my soul and youth were only for your use, I always loved you father and I am leaving loving you dad" Julius said with his voice fading and he died in his father's arms
Dracula held him to his chest sobbing, it hurt to lose his son, his beloved son, it hurt more than when he lost his wife, his pain was so immense
-You left me an emptiness that feels cold son, so blood does not complete me, if I could recover that moment, I would put you under my skin, your innocence was consumed, this pain consumes me
He was hugging him sobbing and all the vampires were sad for Julius, he was calm and loved by all, but they quickly surrounded their King protecting him.
Dracula got up with his dead son in his arms, handed him over to some vampires and ordered them to take him to the palace to have his funeral and he stayed there all bloody, he wiped his tears with his black handkerchief, I keep it for him, he sighed long and he turned around looking at Lucca and all the Lycans that were left alive that were with Lucca. and said
-My heart is not only a deception of my soul, you killed it, you killed my son and you filled me with hate, it seems that the monster always wins, I caught the Darkness and let it grow is what I am now, I am the Darkness, I am evil, death incarnate in me
Rubenio grabbed his daughter and ran to the Palace to protect himself, he was afraid to see the king like this
Lucca looked at Dracula already differently, he was no longer crying, he was still looking at him with those black eyes and his look was of Hate, he began to be afraid, he had never seen him like this, never.
And suddenly Dracula roared, it was a roar so intense that the earth trembled and everyone saw it that he began to become a gigantic being with a gleaming black aura and he said in a guttural and scary voice
-Lucca, this is what I have become, my son was my soul, my life and you killed him now I am a merciless monster, with nothing but darkness, death and I am going to destroy you and all the Lycans, this is what you turned me into
And he roared again, his roar was heard for miles around, he pounced on Lucca without giving him time to react, he grabbed him with his claws, he looked at him with hatred, he opened his gigantic jaws, Lucca roared with fright but it was of no use to him, He ate it in front of everyone but he did it in parts, making him suffer with each bite. And the blood fell down his cheeks and he roared again this time in triumph.
Without prior warning, he attacked all the Lycans, they fell to pieces, he moved despite his size at a rapidity, he did not leave one alive and he roared deafeningly again.
Thus converted into that gigantic being on the way to the palace, the earth rumbled with each step he took and he was heard sobbing, it was like a pitiful howl, when he arrived he transformed into Dracula again, Rubenio was standing at the entrance and grabbed him because he was getting fainting from the pain of losing his son, the closest of his warriors helped him and left him in his room.
The witches who had helped raise him since he was a child entered and asked Rubenio to come out so that they would take care of Dracula who was lying on his bed, he came out closing the door, he was sad about Julius's death.
A great noise was heard inside the King's room, until after a moment a scary roar was heard, the witches rushed out of there and closed the door, the roar was heard again so loud that the castle trembled, The doors to Dracula's room opened, Rubenio and Larissa were near the stairs.
They saw an immense glowing black trail coming out of the room and they saw Dracula was unrecognizable, he was a demonic being, his eyes shone with a black light, his face was like stone, his walk made the floor rumble as he passed by Rubenio and Larissa looked at them and softened her gaze and walked again began to go down the stairs, they trembled with every step he took and everyone there was looking at him with fear, they had never seen him like this, never even when his wife died.
He got downstairs and walked where his dead son was, he approached him, kissed him on the forehead, caressed his hair saying
"When you love, it is not difficult to sacrifice something for someone
The hard part is finding someone who deserves your sacrifice.
I loved you as much as your mother and your death
It hurts even more than your mother's.
You left me an emptiness that feels cold.
You were the pulse of my blood running through my veins
now there is nothing
Now you will dwell in me you will always be by my side
And no one will ever take you away from my son
The love of my life, the love of my existence
The love of all my being, come with me son»
Those who listened to him did not understand what he was talking about, they thought they were going to bury him but Dracula said that he was going to dwell in HIM, when again he spoke in a strange language
«CORPUS JULIUS SON DRACULEA MORTIS RAGRIEZZDI JOPLERDURIO SHARGADRIER ALMA CORPIS DRACULA INNMORTAL SANGRI TUR SANGRI CARNNUS TUR CARNNUS»
And then Dracula began to completely absorb his son, body and soul.
And there was an immense black mist that enveloped both of them and blinded everyone who was there, dissipating little by little, and it could already be seen, Julius was not lying where he lay, Dracula was only standing and the blood that had left his body, he turned around and said
-Clean all this is no longer necessary
