Bab 48: Seeking Immortality

After discovering the existence of supernaturals and vampires, Aro was filled with excitement. The idea of immortality sparked something deep within him. He could hardly contain his enthusiasm. Celene, too, felt a change in her emotions. The fear that once gripped her heart began to fade as she thought about the possibility of spending eternity with Klaus. The idea of being together forever was thrilling.

While Aro was eager about the idea of immortality and power beyond any human .

While Tristan stood in uncertainty. He had always been skeptical of the supernatural, and the new revelations were overwhelming. Just as he was trying to process everything, a shocking truth came to light. Aurora revealed that she had been turned into a vampire by Dave. This revelation hit Tristan hard. His own sister was now part of this dark world, raising questions he never thought he'd have to face.

'Should he also become one, a part of him wants to be a part of this world but he is also scared of the unknown.'

As Aro absorbed this new information, His excitement only grew. He approached Dave and the others, his eyes shining with ambition. "Is it possible for me to become a vampire?" he asked, his voice steady but eager. Everyone turned to Dave, who had successfully turned Aurora and Evelyn into vampires before.

The same idea came to Klaus's mind if there is a way to turn others into one too, if there is he could be with Celene and won't lose her anymore.

Klaus felt torn. The thought of spending eternity with Celene was a dream he longed for, but he felt trapped by the unknowns surrounding the process. They still didn't know they could turn others into vampires by feeding them their blood. This crucial piece of information was just out of reach, and Klaus felt the weight of his unfulfilled desire.

Seeing their confusion, Dave took the opportunity to propose a collaboration for his goal of creating Cold Ones. "I successfully turned Aurora and Evelyn because they were connected to me through the curse," he explained.

Klaus and Aro asked in unison, "Is there no other way?"

Dave opened Esther's grimoire, filled with ancient spells and secrets. "Even if I could cast the spell, I don't have doppelganger blood, which is a key ingredient," he said,(lies it's in the inventory, he just want to turn create a cold one ) frustration creeping into his voice. He paused, letting his words sink in, then added, "But I have found an alternative."

Kol and Finn leaned in, eager to hear more. Dave had seen both of them give give a longing look and sometimes zone out they desire magic which he has come to understand after learning magic if he lost his magic now he will go into depression .

So I have been considering giving them a Siphoner core if he managed to get one. "Do you know why doppelganger blood is so important?" he asked.

Aro and the others looked confused, but Finn and Kol quickly caught on. "Yes! They're the doppelgangers of the first immortal woman, born to die instead of the immortal," Finn said, realizing the significance.

Dave nodded, a grin on his face. "As I'm also immortal, I could substitute doppelganger blood with my own." Their eyes widened at this news. "But this might result in a different type of vampire than you all."

Kol quickly picked up on another important detail: the missing spell. Dave's excitement grew. "Don't worry! Just last night, after three weeks of research, I found a way."

Finn asked, "What way?"

Dave smiled mysteriously. "You'll find out soon enough when I cast the spell." The room was filled with tension as he asked, "So, who wants to try first?"

Aro was eager but uncertain, and Celene was hesitant, while Klaus outright denied her participation in what he saw as a risky ritual.

That's when Aurora suggested, "Why don't we try it on someone expendable?" She pointed at Lucien, who was guarding the entrance after sending the servants away, still holding onto her grudge against him.

After their discussion, they moved to breakfast, where Celene and Klaus shared a quiet moment, seems like she is no longer scared as it's said 'You are only scared of the Unknown and Unpredictable.'

As night fell, the atmosphere shifted.

{Dave's POV}

By nighttime, Kol hadn't stopped asking about my plans. His curiosity was relentless, and I finally had to kick him out of my room when he nearly barged in, interrupting my time with the girls. After four long hours, once the girls were asleep, I called upon the system.

"System, I want to buy the Astronomy skill."

[Astronomy skill<lv 1>: 4000 LP]

"Buy it."

"What level do I need to calculate when and where a solar eclipse occurs?" I asked, my mind racing with possibilities.

System answered it is atleast level 5 if you want to calculate where on earth will it happen next .

"Upgrade it to lv 5"

[Astronomy <lv 5> upgrade cost 20000Lp]

I had figured out that the key to resolving the spell issue was to use the merging ritual I had obtained from the system. The plan was to merge my blood with the original blood and then feed it to Lucien to turn him into a Cold One.

This ritual needed to be done during a Solar Eclipse , using the event to complete the merging process. It was an expression magic ritual that required careful timing.
