Bab 38: Chapter 37 Execution
Zero had gained much from his encounter with the vampire Carmilla. He not only learned of the past actions of Alucard but also learned of the fact that as one of his generals she had intimate knowledge of the castle's layout. With this knowledge, he could go anywhere in the castle as he pleased and now that his system was back online he didn't have to guess where Soma and Genya could be.
Zero brought Yoko to the Underground Reservoir area which was underneath the castle. It was a dimly lit cave filled with both water on the ground and plant life all around.
"So what are we doing here?" asked Yoko
"We are doing nothing here. You will be hunting the souls and bodies of Dryads, Alura Une, and Mandragoras. This is the only area where you can find them." answered Zero with a smirk
"While I'm doing that what will you be doing?" asked Yoko while glaring at him
"I'll be heading back to the library you met Soma at last time. Dracula has amassed a massive collection of books on magic and alchemy. I'm looking for a specific book but I'll be taking the rest too." answered Zero
When she heard that they would be taking Dracula's entire book collection on magic and alchemy Yoko's eye began to glow red. "I'll be able to read them whenever I want right?" asked Yoko as her desire for magical knowledge began to stir.
"Of course I'm only interested in one book the rest are for you." answered Zero smiling
"So how am I supposed to carry all these bodies and catch souls while I'm at it?" asked the confused Yoko as she managed to get control of her desire and calm herself down.
"Well due to our soul link from the contract you can access my chaos dimension at a limited capacity. You can create a portal for only yourself to come and go when you wish." explained Zero
"Really that's great. How do I do it?" asked the excited Yoko
"Well, the first thing we have to do is kiss to activate the ability." Said Zero with a serious expression
"Wait! What!?" Yoko was surprised by what Zero just said to her. Deeply fascinated by the ability to cross-dimension her eyes began glowing even brighter and brighter as she stepped towards him. Her face blushed as she brought her face closer to his and kissed Zero. She felt elation as desire swept throughout her entire being and felt strange energy fill her satiating an appetite she didn't know existed within her. After kissing Zero she separated from him in a dazed and was silent for a while before asking if that was good enough to activate the ability.
Having been kissed Zero looked at Yoko. "I was just kidding but that was nice regardless. That was my first kiss. "
Yoko was overcome with a multitude of emotions the main two being rage and embarrassment. She gathered all the strength in her hand and threw a punch at Zero but he simply teleported behind her.
"Now on a serious note what just happened is a real problem. Since you a new demon it seems like you can't reign in your desires enough to think rationally. When you're offered something that interests you it makes you desire it so much despite the fact that it is most likely fake." Said Zero with a serious tone
"What do you mean?" asked Yoko still feeling the need to beat Zero within an inch of death
"You haven't noticed but every time we discuss magic or a unique ability your eyes glow red and you become less rational." answered Zero
"Why do they do that?" asked a concerned Yoko
"Demons are creatures of desire and have trouble hiding them. They have an obsession with what interests them and disregard all else. It's a sign of your desire for knowledge or food flaring up. One of your main interests is magic so it can be used against you if you don't learn some self-control." answered Zero
"So when my desires flare up they cause my eyes to glow?" asked Yoko
"Yes and if they keep growing it'll probably cause you to transform back into your demon form unintentionally." explained Zero
"So I need to work on controlling myself when it comes to magic." said Yoko
"Yes and since you're also a type of succubus you'll probably have trouble controlling your lust if you don't feed regularly." said Zero
"I can eat food for that." replied an embarrassed Yoko instantly
"You can eat food but you'll probably receive little to no nutrients from it like me." stated Zero
"So are you full now?" asked Zero
"Yes and next time don't trick me." said Yoko while glaring at Zero
"Good well then I'm off now. Before I forget take this" said Zero as he produced a claymore used by a shadow knight that he fought previously.
"There's no way I can lift that." said Yoko
"You couldn't before but you can now. You're a tiny bit stronger than I am." said Zero as he passes the claymore to her.
"It's light!" exclaimed Yoko
"Good anyway the way to open the dimension is to channel mana into a single spot and the doorway will open." said Zero
Having given the blade to Yoko; Zero then teleported away and head for the library. Arriving at his destination Zero began to scour the library for a titled "The Secret Art" and as she searched he threw the books into his chaos dimension. Having spent an hours searching Zero had finally finished 1 bookshelf and had about 400 more to go.
Zero was beginning to develop a headache as he looked at the task in front of him. Suddenly he was struck with a brilliant idea.
'System can you search all the book title is this room for a book title "The Secret Art"'
CONFIRMED COMMENCING SEARCH
SEARCH COMPLETED
135,957 BOOKS SEARCHED
BOOK NOT FOUND
'Well, at least I didn't waste time. If it's not here then it must be somewhere else.'
Zero wasted no time and opened a portal on the ground into the chaos dimension. He then began to use his teleport ability but rather than on himself he used it to teleport the books above the portal. After finishing 300 shelves Zero sat down to rest after consuming all his mana.
As he was resting the door to the library open and a brown-haired and browned eyes middle-aged man in a trench coat walked in.
"Julius Belmont the man who killed Dracula's last incarnation. You're right on time." said Zero with a smile
"Who are you and what are you doing in Dracula's castle?" asked Julius
"Me I'm just your ordinary vampire." said Zero
"Accursed creature of the night! You're here to resurrect Dracula aren't you!" yelled Julius
"Why must all Belmonts be like this." sighed Zero
"It's our duty to God to exterminate all vampires." said Julius
"Well I know for certain that your mission to defeat Dracula has nothing to do with any holy mission." said Zero
"What do you mean?" asked Julius
"This feud with Dracula started over two women." said Zero with a smile
