Chapter 3: Hope and Despair

"Mum? What's wrong? I looked at my mother and she seems to have an unpretty green mist surrounding her, I started to walk closer to her and all of a sudden"St-stay away you filth! You are not my son! You are his-" and suddenly she started clutching her heart, I didn't understand what was wrong and I ran and caught her before she fell to the ground and I felt that her vitality is rapidly decreasing. I got out of the house and ran at the best speed I could run. If someone were to see this, all they could see is just a blur.

I reached the nearest hospital after a few mins, I didn't waste any time, I ran carrying my mother into the emergency department. All the doctors and the nurses and patients were suprised by my appearance.I shouted "Help! My mother!  Something happened to her!" All of a sudden there was a kind doctor who ran towards me and told me to place my mom on the hospital bed. He checked her pulse and suddenly his face became dark, "WE HAVE A CODE BLUE! QUICK BRING A DEFIBRILLATOR IMMEDIATELY" suddenly I understood what they saying and fell into despair, my mother is having a heart attack. A nurse  quickly walked towards me,"Sir, we going to have you go in the waiting room, we will try our best to handle what will happen next" I didn't want to waste any time arguing with her so I went to the waiting room. After what it seemed like hours, I was so nervous, I started walking around right and left.

Suddenly I heard a click and saw that one of the doctors came out of the room, I hurriedly walked after him."Doc? How is my mom?" He sighed and replied"Im sorry kid...we couldn't save her".

I felt like my heart was going to break apart. As if my insides where all empty, tears started streaming down my face, the doctors looked at the pitiful handsome boy, his eyes was the colour of deep blue as the boy walked toward his deceased mother. They felt aura of sadness surrounding him.

I hugged my mom for the last time while crying like a child while holding onto her..the mists that were surrounding her were all gone..she looked so peaceful.."Mom..please come back.. please I'm sorry.."

The director of the hospital himself paid for the mother's funeral, it was a rainy day..Achlys is now standing infront a grave, He held a bouquet of flowers, his eyes were dark blue, even the sky seemed to mourn together with the boy..

"Mom, I'll find dad and ill make to make him pay for  breaking your heart!" I grit my teeth and swore to the heavens while looking at the dark clouds that ill find out where my lost father is. "Ding! Heir has unlocked a sealed message by someone called Frederick Lucius Ambrogio."

"Huh? Who could this person be?" I thought. It read:

Frederick L.A

67th Hell

To my dear son. If you are reading this. This means that youve become successfully a hybrid vampire just like me. Im sorry for your loss my child. Your mother is a mortal, she is bound to death. Not us, we are in the upper clan of demons, in other words, Hell. Its not like what the mortal world describes as, its totally different. If you want to come find me and revive your mother. Come to me after 78 years and you've reached the peak of the Heaven Realm.(level 100)

"WHAT! MOTHER CAN BE REVIVED?" I fell deep into thought..why and how did my father know that she is going to die? And what's the "67th Hell" is he talking about? And what does he mean by-hm? the letter didn't end?

P.S: I left 3 martial skills for your future growth, the rest is up to you, either come to hunt me down, or come to find me and revive your mother, I have her soul sealed in my hands. I felt angry at my father for holding my mother's soul as a hostage! What does he want with me and why is he holding her hostage?

"Ding! You've received 3 skills, would you like to learn them?" Oh, skills? "Yes"."Ding! You've received Perfect Mimicry, this allows you to copy anyone's technique, martial art. And directly swallow their experiences which allows you to perform the technique without any hindrance, this will not affect the opponent. Ding! You've received the Blood and Darkness attribute, this will allow you to control blood and darkness itself. Ding! You've received Dimension Manipulation, in short, the heir can create paths to travel by bending the space laws around you or you can create a storage space for yourself"

"Oh good lord this is interesting" hmm.. now I have to go home and take a new path..just wait mom! Ill bring you home.

A few hours later Achlys was burning all the papers in his house, when he saw a particular paper which stood out from the rest."hmm? What's this?" He started to read the content:

I read it again after I felt confused, eh? I touched my underwear ,"Nah I'm a guy, there is no way I was a girl"

"Ding! You've received a message, from Frederick L.A, son. You have a twin sister, sorry I forgot to mention it in the letter, this message should come when you know the existence of that birth certificate."

"Oh twin sister"... wait wha- "I HAVE A TWIN, AND SHE IS A SISTER????" eh?
