Chapter 58: Dracul
The figure on the bed slowly rose from it, while the blinding light disappeared. The figure had silver shoulder length hair that was pulled into a loose ponytail while a pair of glasses were laid on his nose. Behind his glasses were ice blue eyes that were drooping sleepily. The rest of his face was incredibly handsome and his figure was hidden behind a T-shirt and some jeans.
He stood up and looked around before saying nostalgically "It's been so long since I have been here. So many memories. Ahh…" After examining the room, he finally saw Kai who was standing in the corner and looked at him in a surprised manner before saying:
"Hmm… Where have I seen you before, red eyes… I remember I saw something like that now where did I see you?" The man continued to try and remember before shouting "You're that vampire that ordered that bulk order from me a few years ago"
Thinking to himself 'I should have remembered him he is a crucial figure for the future of vampire kind. Oh well, he's here now and that's all that matters I guess.'
Looking intently at the man in front of him Kai tried to remember from where he had seen the man before listening to the man and the understood that it was the tailor from Diagon alley who had made him his clothes- Dracul.
"But what are you doing here vampire," Dracul asked Kai seriously as a slightly overwhelming aura leaked out of his body. Kai could feel it and began to feel wary of Dracul. He no longer had the lazy vibe instead he was giving off a sharp and dangerous feeling that caused Kai to be on guard.
But he didn't show his caution although he had slightly moved so that he was now in a position to react to an attack. The fact that he was he knew he was a vampire two years ago was a crucial point that could destroy his whole cover here at the academy. "I could ask you the same thing," Kai said aggressively "Who are you?"
Before Dracul could respond a young woman jumped at Dracul who raised his arms to support her. This woman was Penelope. "I missed you so much Dracul, why did you never respond to my letters, or visit earlier? I've wanted to meet you for so long…-"
Just like Penelope had cut off Kai and Dracul's discussion it happened to her immediately. Annabelle had appeared almost as soon as Penelope had arrived and had managed to wriggle into Dracul's arms while gently letting Penelope slide out of them.
Annabelle started to berate him but couldn't continue before burying her head into his chest and said in a voice that was only audible to Kai and Dracul. "I missed you so much, my lord. Why didn't you return? You just disappeared one day after leaving a note…"
She started to sob and cry onto his shirt, at some point, Penelope had joined in and Dracul comforted both women for the next couple of minutes until they calmed down.
After being comforted and calming down the two women realised that there was an unwanted guest standing in the corner of the room that had just seen their "breakdown."
Penelope shouted, "What are you doing here Kai, you should have already left!" With a mix of embarrassment and anger.
At the same time Annabelle exclaimed "How did you get here I thought that you were locked… I mean resting in your room?"
While Annabelle had been civil when questioning, Penelope was the complete opposite. She had pounced on him with both hands outstretched in an animalistic way, with no hesitation. The anger of being seen by Kai- a person she hated, at her most vulnerable state was clouding her thoughts.
Kai was taken aback at Penelope's crazed manner, but nevertheless, he was still in his defensive stance and was able to react appropriately before she could hurt him. He had decided to deal with her in a non-lethal way even though this was the second time that she was trying to kill him. This was due to Dracul and the clear connection between Penelope and him was unclear.
He had assumed that Dracul had a connection to the vampire Progenitor or perhaps was the progenitor with the way that Annabelle and Penelope were showing their affection. After all, Penelope had attempted to kill him when he only mentioned that he wanted to buy a painting that was painted by the first vampire of this world.
So there was a chance that he was indeed the original vampire progenitor.
He crouched down when she had pounced at him and raised his hands above his head with his palms stretched out. She landed in his hands as predicted, but only for a brief moment before he released himself from the crouch and as a result of the force generated when he resumed his normal stance, catapulted her over him while letting her momentum carry her away from him.
Due to him being unable to see the true extent of Dracul's power he only used the power of a 2nd generation vampire. Due to this, Annabelle was able to construct a barrier that protected the walls without damaging the carefully tended cottage.
"Enough Penelope, calm down. We have already made the rule that nobody may fight inside the cottage, not even you." However, Penelope wasn't listening to her, her(Penelope's) hot-headed nature had taken control of her and as a result, she was amidst her transformation into her supernatural form.
Luckily Dracul was in the room and his words were absolute for the two women as a result of their love and infatuation to him. So, when he said, "Stop it, Penelope," her transformation immediately stopped and then slowly reverted back into her original form.
Dracul looked at Kai, there was no longer any part of that lazy shopkeeper in his aura. Instead, there was a regal, godly aura that seemed to say obey me.
"Follow me, there is something that I need to discuss with all of you, including Kai so cut out your rebellious behaviour for now Penelope. I can promise you that you will be able to let loose to your heart's content soon." The last part of his sentence was said in an ominous tone that caused all of the people following Dracul shivers, except for Kai.
But he was still serious. After arriving at the administrative building's surface layer, Malcolm appeared. "My old friend you have finally arrived, we have lots of adventures to catch up." But Dracul declined and said, "I'm sorry Malcolm but I have an urgent matter that has to do with Kai."
After arriving in an unused room and entering it. Dracul cast a wandless and nonverbal spell that sealed the room. "I need to talk to you and this." He gestured to the spell, "is so that nobody eavesdrops on our conversation. Now..."
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
dragonfang1917
dragonfang1917 Sorry for the erratic release schedule. I'm trying my best to figure it out and hopefully, it can be resolved next week. Also, something that really annoys me is the fact that half of the readers decided to stop reading, because they had no patience, so thanks to the guys that stayed.
