Bab 708: Hercules' Descendant

           It didn't take long for Ryan to feel worried about his mana. Since Dracula was focused only on stealing it, his speed was insane. Still, attacking him while ignoring Alfur wasn't a good idea. While Ryan was expecting an opening, he couldn't help but wonder… How come Dracula was summoned as a zombie, but Poseidon wasn't? Although that seemed a bit crazy, it wouldn't be weird if Thanatos could turn him into a zombie if he had the chance to do so. Both of their souls had been sealed in weapons, so that didn't make any sense. Unless…

"Hey, Femradiel," Ryan said. "How come Thanatos managed to summon Dracula as a zombie?"

"I have a few hypotheses, but… all of them seemed a bit crazy," Femradiel replied. "The true Dracula still is sealed inside that crossbow, but that one was brought back as a zombie anyway… by using the memories of his vampires. A lot of them died, so it wouldn't be weird if Thanatos used their souls to do that."
