章 39: The Countess: Alcina Dimitrescu II
A total of seven hundred and twenty-two years of experience was gained from Chu Yanluo, Hun Shenhui and Su Hengli.
Chief among that knowledge was the famous 'cultivation' he hadn't seen back in his world.
'Great Completion of the Karma Fire Realm...' It was just the third of the nine transcends tribulations.
Not only that but there was a weird feeling going about his consciousness. And according to his memories, this was the sign of a 'breakthrough' the way of doing it was summoning a tribulation, and after passing it, he would be in the next realm, the Sunflower Jade Realm.
The capacity to nourish one's body to the limit using the natural energy of the world as well as the personal comprehension of the primal laws that made the universe work, that was cultivation.
Cultivation Ranks, martial arts, knowledge of an interesting secret organisation of Chinese cultivators called Hongmeng and so on were bundled inside those geezers mind.
Glancing at Alcina who was still sitting in her place with her eyes looking at him, he sensed that she also extracted cultivation out of him.
'First of the Nine transcends tribulations, Southern Bright Trigram Fire, Early Stage.' he asserted given the pressure she emitted unconsciously.
Then there was the location of this Hongmeng Organisation. The Kunlun Mountains at Xinjiang, and the main Headquarters atop the mountain, Tongtian Tower…
Letting the knowledge pass by his head, he smirked at a particular piece of information that he was deeply interested in…
'Supreme Immortal…' According to these memories, he was the leader of the cultivators, but low-ranked elders like them didn't know much apart of his title, even his location was unknown.
One thing was the absolute truth, he was the strongest individual in this world.
There was also the knowledge of the twelve gods of Olympus, these elders also didn't know much about them except for their existence and some key names such as Athena, Hera, Poseidon and Hades.
And the God-King of Olympus, Zeus... An existence believed to approach the Supreme Immortal in power, but that was just those elders' belief.
Together with the fact that they used some 'Divine Energy' to fuel their attacks and divine bodies.
Back in his world, those gods were only a myth, who would think that upon coming to this world, he would literally exchange blows with the Goddess of War and Wisdom himself? And he couldn't wait to do it again!
Alucard knew she had been holding back, but now he knew the reason. She hadn't recovered her powers.
Apparently, it was way easier to use that Divine Energy than the cultivators' Nature energy.
And he could see it just on the great number of cultivation ranks those bastards had, whereas the gods were just gods…
He had gotten divine energy from Hades, Poseidon and Athena, but it was barely enough to accomplish anything, especially since he didn't have their 'soul' and divine body, those were needed in order to produce and use the divine energy effectively.
Upon checking the memories he frowned at the fact that he hasn't gotten nearly as much as he expected from them.
Poseidon's memories were regarding a man sitting in a military office, giving orders about an invasion somewhere in the middle east.
The bastard's memories were the widest he had in volume as he had swallowed most of his body, the gods' durability was noteworthy if he hadn't managed to swallow his soul even after eating most of his body.
The memories were about his missions belonging to an organisation called 'Zero', being taught by a master whose name was Song Tianxing.
Athena's small amount was almost completely sealed... with only a few memories of a laboratory somewhere in the Antarctic and a mysterious helmet.
Then there were the other three souls within her body, the thing that most interested him.
One of them didn't have anything except for some brief... light?
The other was a small girl being dumped in a trashcan as her mother looked at her from above... And then left.
And the last, the one he could recognise was a small girl looking at her mother who in change didn't even spare her a glance and looked through the window as if awaiting something that would never come...
'Lin Ruoxi...'
At some point, Alcina once again came up to him to bite his neck sloppily, this time... with a lot more control over her impulses.
'I felt overwhelmed again after trying to increase it by half a metre…' she excused herself.
'Don't run without crawling first, gain total control over the range that you can sense… Only then will you be able to increase it.' He answered dismissively.
'… What are you thinking about, Master? And please, excuse my lack of manners if my curiosity troubles you in any way.' She sent him the thought while sucking his blood.
'It doesn't… I'm just processing the memories I got from the cultivators and the gods.'
'I have regarded your movements from inside your body as they reformed, it will be troublesome for your 'hobby' with Hermes' Brewings if you don't mislead attention from China, Master…' She said, surprising him with her sudden show of wisdom.
'Elaborate…' He wanted to know what she was thinking.
After sucking some more blood and thinking briefly, she answered.
'Even though they don't know your true identity, secret organisations are going to be investigating all over China, specially Zhonghai. No matter how well we hide, it won't take long for them to see patterns in our movements, that's why it is better to increase the range of their investigations to other countries as well and make it look like Zhonghai was a 'coincidence'.
Now that she was calmer he could see her true self coming out of the shell. A very graceful woman with deep background and prospects also, unadulterated cunningness!
'Hehehe~ Not bad… And how do you plan on doing that?'
'Huhu~ You know the answer to that better than me, Dear Master~' Her eyes changed from pink to blood-red in the middle of the night, eager to continue her past hobby.
Hunt…
Alucard laughed heartily, he really wasn't mistaken about her. The Vampire King would try to let his real identity be left unhindered, but if discovered, that wasn't a problem at all. He might as well completely take over and live in this world with any identity, or without any identity.
But that would be troublesome and boring, the fun would be finished before the end of the week and only a barren planet would be left behind...
But her suggestion was something he would be very fond of in order to let his liquor business grow peacefully, as he still had the 'sheet' he got from the officer and Reng Shuang's foreign contacts.
'Don't expect me to teach you how to hunt, Alcina.' She was a vampire even before they coincided in the same place. If he had to teach her that at this stage, it would be a shame.
'Don't worry Master, I'm more than capable of hunting my own blood~' Alcina giggled and released his neck only to give his healing wound a prolonged lick before smiling.
She stood up in front of him as her shadow morphed and moved dumbly around her body.
The eyes in her shadow were closed signifying her lack of skill in manipulating it.
"What a wonderful power you gave me Master. So this is what it means to be a true vampire." After a few minutes, she finally managed to morph her shadow into a white pristine Victorian dress with a big black flower above the chest area showing lots of cleavage, a silver collar hanging on her pretty neck as the white dress reached all the way to the ground. Black gloves and a black wide-brimmed hat that covered her curly raven curly hair.
Seeing her own dress she sighed in satisfaction marvelling at how much younger she looked compared to her past self after being able to 'sense' her own appearance.
She thought it was a weird feeling like she was seeing her torso, from someone else's perspective.
The countess touched the black flower above her chest slightly as old memories flashed in her mind.
'I'll definitely avenge you, my daughters. Even if I have to unleash my wrath on their future generations.'
Having thought that, her flower changed colour to deep blood red magically.
He snickered, "Yes, now you don't need real clothes... What a wonderful power."
Glancing at her mature figure for a brief moment, a brief moment on which she detected his gaze.
He stood up, there was nothing else to do here, Catherine had contacted him earlier today asking if he was okay and he said he'd be there once he finished training his 'new Draculine' it comes without saying that the Queen of England didn't send any more messages after that…
"Can we stay one more day, Master? I still feel kind of dizzy… One more day should be able to solve it." she requested one more day of training and Alucard didn't mind it. With everything that happened in Zhonghai and China, it was obvious the industry would be stopped for a few days until everything went back to normal by a reasonable degree.
"I'll go back to China to do something, stay here until then." He ordered.
"H-How long will it take?" She asked with a stutter and almost unconsciously only to open her eyes widely at the realisation of what she just asked…
Alucard furrowed his brows in response, opting for ignoring her tonality, "About an hour." He asserted and vanished the next second.
Alcina Dimitrescu looked down slightly at her shaking hands with a frown… 'It's not like me to be dependant on someone… Could it be because I spent some time in his shadow? Or his delicious blood?'
She had spent less than a month with him and it had developed to this stage.
'Be it as it may, it can't continue… I can't be dependent on him.' Not only would he see her as a hindrance but she also couldn't allow herself to bring him down.
With that thought in mind, she continued her own personal training, trying to ignore her missing master as barrages of thoughts, feelings and senses drowned her mind

Three days went by ever since the catastrophe and in the middle of a Villa in America, Beverly Hills, an Asian man woke up after a long slumber… A life-death slumber so to say.
Yang Chen opened his eyes with a big headache and looked around to find himself in a big and cosy modern room.
Wondering where he was, the last memories in his brain rushed back to his consciousness with a vengeance!
He grunted instinctively and clutched his chest!
The phantom leftover of the pain he felt that day still wrecking his mind!
"Are you finally awake Mister!?" A feminine voice resounded from the door of the room as a young Caucasian woman with a maid outfit entered the room.
Yang Chen grit his teeth hard, still remembering those red eyes and that mocking smile!
That damned girl!
He didn't know who that little girl was, but one thing was for sure. He will go for her blood and she wouldn't get him by surprise again!
"Where am I?!" He screamed in rage surprising the woman who shuddered at his outburst.
"M-Mr Yang we have been taking care of you for the past few days!... Here! The mistress left this for you!" She presented him with a letter and hurriedly left the room, how rude of him!
Yang Chen frowned at her dismissal but took the letter nonetheless.
…
'Heya! I should say something like 'Good Morning' but in reality, I can't stop laughing at the mighty Pluto getting his ass handed to him by a little girl! Hahahahaha! How funny! the God of the Underworld is desperately knocking at his own doors~ this would make a nice late-night show joke! Anyway, I have been taking care of you but some things came up and have to leave. I know how impulsive you are Hades and suggest you take out of your mind whatever nonsense you're thinking of and don't go back to China… You can't defeat that little girl, look for somewhere else to spend your holidays or something, like Brazil or Peru? The farther from China, the better. Ciao!
Christen - Aphrodite.
PSD: Don't you dare touch my maids!'
…
Upon reading the letter, Yang Chen's brows furrowed as he directly crushed it!
'That bitch...'
He sighed in irritation at the fact that he didn't even have a phone to call his right hand and book him a flight directly back to China...
Looking around the room he found a set of clothes ready for him and didn't even think before leaving the room and meeting a group of five frightened maids.
Even though each one of them was a bombshell of her own, he wasn't in the mood to carry on and disobey Aphrodite.
"Thanks for everything." He said and the next thing he jumped from the window of the second floor!
The maids could only gape at how that lunatic almost threw away their efforts, but at the end of the day, he was a God, just like their mistress… Surely a fall like that won't kill him.
But well, it's not like a lot of people are not dying in California these days.
