Chapter 260 Awakening The King



I step into the grand chamber, the opulence of its surroundings hitting me as I enter. This is Alphonso's chamber, a room that exudes wealth and power, reminiscent of a prince's abode. The scent of luxury fills the air, and I brace myself for the conversation that awaits.

Alphonso turns around, puffing a cloud of smoke as he acknowledges my presence. "Glad to see you, Jake," he says, his tone respectful.

I offer him an awkward smile, trying to ease the tension. "Drop the formalities, Alphonso. It feels strange for you to address me like that considering our past relationship. And yes, I have only regained a fraction of my memories," I reply, waving my hand dismissively.

Alphonso coughs and corrects himself, a hint of embarrassment in his expression. "I wouldn't dare call you that since you've regained your memories. I am genuinely happy that you've recovered. There are many things I want to discuss with you, but let me focus on the most important matter. You are aware of the reason I am here, your highness," he says, bowing slightly.

I raise an eyebrow, intrigued. "I have heard about why you're here. So, what exactly do you need me for?"

Alphonso's eyes meet mine, filled with certainty. "It's quite simple, really. We need to awaken the king from his deep slumber, and your presence is essential. We will use your blood to accomplish this."

I let out a frustrated sigh, the old man's insistence weighing on me. "But I am not a direct descendant. Why do you need my blood? That old man is taking it too far," I mutter, memories of someone precious being torn away from me resurfacing.

Alphonso's tone softens as he tries to explain. "I understand your concerns, but when vampires awaken from their slumber, they are usually weak for the first few days. However, I realized that if we use your blood, the king will awaken in a more stable condition."

Suddenly, Alphonso drops to his knees, his form engulfed in crimson energy. His clothes disintegrate into dust, revealing a striking silver armor that adorns his body. He places his hand on his chest and looks up at me, his eyes filled with reverence.

"As the king's royal knight, I humbly plead with you, your highness. Only you and I are to awaken the king. Not even his daughters should be present," Alphonso implores, his voice resonating with sincerity.

I nod, understanding the weight of the request. "Very well, I will follow you. Lead the way."

Alphonso's expression brightens, and he rises to his feet. "It's my honor, your highness."

I step into the vast underground ancient basement, Alphonso by my side as my guide. The room emanates an aura of secrecy, the torches lining the walls suddenly igniting with a mesmerizing purple flame. The glow casts an eerie light that dances across the surroundings, revealing the secrets held within.

My gaze sweeps over the room, taking in the sight of rectangular tombs crafted from a gold-like metal. Each tomb bears intricate carvings and well-carved stones that detail the lives of revered individuals in the vampire kingdom. The weight of history hangs in the air, and I can't help but feel a sense of awe and curiosity.

Alphonso leads me further, and we approach a particular tomb that pulsates with a wild and potent energy. It stands apart from the others, its magnificence drawing my attention. Etched above the tomb in bold letters are the words "Duke Mystro." This is the final resting place of the king himself.I think you should take a look at

Turning to me, Alphonso's eyes shimmer with reverence and determination. "This is the moment we've been preparing for, your highness," he whispers. "The tomb of our beloved king, Duke Mystro. To awaken him and restore balance to our kingdom, we need your blood."

Taking a deep breath, I steady myself for the task at hand. The consequences and risks of waking the troublesome old man weigh heavily on my mind, but I understand the significance of this moment. It's an opportunity to shape the future, to reclaim what has been lost. With resolve, I extend my hand and draw a blade across my palm, allowing the crimson liquid to flow.

Runes surrounding the tomb ignite in a vibrant red hue, creating intricate patterns that shimmer with power. The glow intensifies, illuminating the chamber with an ethereal light.

My heart races as the tomb rumbles and vibrates with life. The ground trembles beneath my feet, and a sense of anticipation swirls around me.

Alphonso's hand rests on my shoulder, his voice steady and filled with excitement. "Stay focused, your highness. We are about to witness something extraordinary."

A deep rumble reverberates through the tomb, growing louder with each passing second. The ground shakes, dust fills the air, and the surge of energy courses through my veins, merging with my blood as it continues to flow.

In a burst of thunderous power, the tomb quakes and radiates a blinding light. I shield my eyes, temporarily blinded by the brilliance of the moment.

As the light subsides, a figure emerges before us, emanating an otherworldly aura. It is the resurrected king himself, Duke Mystro, standing tall and regal.

Our eyes meet, and a glimmer of recognition sparks within his ancient gaze. A smile graces his face as he speaks, his voice echoing with wisdom and power. "Thank you, Jake."

Anger wells up within me as I gaze upon the old man. The memories of past pain and loss surge to the forefront of my mind, and I clench my fists, fighting the urge to strike him in that very moment. The audacity of standing before the great perverted vampire without pants only adds to my frustration.
