Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman

The Micro World was hidden in the middle of the Great Forest of Elias.

Rex still had his doubts till his first encounter with this mystical world. After getting to a hidden location in the forest, beneath where Princess Elanor claimed that the Demon Kamaitachi was imprisoned, they saw a small portal.

"Follow me". This was all Princess Elanor said before she jumped in.

Rex and Aragorn exchanged a glance before jumping through the teleportation portal. With a slight buzzing sound, they disappeared.

When Rex regained his vision, he was already in an entirely different world than he was used to. The first thing that he noticed was the trees of the Great Forest which seemed to have been magnified a hundred times.

The 2nd thing that he noticed was the perception difference. For some reason, the beasts of the forest that were magnified now seemed as slow as sloths. Their movements were so sluggish that he was flabbergasted.

He shrank in size after entering the portal and now looked no bigger than a bug in the forest, this was ridiculous but true.

​ For some strange reason also, after shrinking into this smaller size, the day changed to night. It was like looking at world from the perspective of the micro world was opposite to looking at it from the normal perspective.

Rex and Aragorn were completely stunned as they observed their massive surroundings like kids who went to a shopping mall for the first time.

"Come on". This was when Princess Elanor urged them on.

Without waiting for them, this elven princess picked up pace as her long legs ate yards of space through the forest. In just a few minutes, she took Rex and Aragorn through a large distance until they arrived before a massive castle.

This massive blue castle had a massive statue of a male Elf King between its massive gates, and this was what welcomed the 2 newcomers.

Manning the castle walls were elven soldiers, dozens of them. If they were still doubtful before, this alone was enough to tell them that Elves actually lived.

Everything here was not so rosy though. At another part of the massive castle walls, Rex saw the elven soldiers fighting against a pack of strange foxlike beasts with such long nails that looked like sickles for harvesting.

"Those are the Demon Amaitachi's descendants". Princess Elanor spoke.

"Since the great sacrifice of our ancestor, we are not the only ones who got to live, the descendants of the Demon also lived and since then, we have been archenemies who kept fighting for the extinction of the other".

"The amaitachis believe that our race becoming extinct is the way for their ancestor to be released from this prison".

Elanor explained till they arrived before the massive gate where she received respectful salutes from the elven soldiers that manned the walls.

They barely got past the wall before a loud angry voice reverberated. "ELANOR!!!"

"You left the micro world without permission again?!"

"…" Rex and Aragorn shuddered at the sheer venom in this voice.

…

10 minutes later, Rex and Aragorn were seated with the immediate royal family of the micro world of the Great Forest of Elias.

Once her parents who were the King and Queen knew about what she was up to and also knew Rex's identity as a Vampire, they were astonished as they instantly forgot Elanor's sins and invited them for dinner.

In this luxurious castle, Rex was made to listen to the glorious history of the Elven race by King Algar. Though the King tried to keep it subtle, he also talked about the prophecy of their ancestor and how Rex was the chosen one.

In the end, after a 20 minutes dinner session that extended to become 40 minutes, the Elf Queen Galadriel finally made an offer that Rex loved.

"You have a nice sword; I see that its upgradable. What's its name?"

"Oh, thanks, its name is Berserker".

"We Elves are renowned for our craftsmanship and mystic technology. If you want, I can upgrade your sword all the way to the Advanced Grade".

"Shing!" "Shing!"

Berserker already yelled his approval even before Rex could react, Rex smiled awkwardly. "I'll forever remember this favor, your highness".

With that, the dinner came to an end as the Elven King and Queen left with Berserker, leaving him alone with Princess Elanor.

Once Aragorn heard of craftsmanship and mystic technology, his shameless side was aroused as he pleaded shamelessly to go with the Queen.

Now that they were alone, Rex finally turned to face Elanor and sighed. "The past hour to me has been pretty crazy, everything is moving so fast, I never knew Elves were real and now I already had dinner with elven royalty".

"This world is really crazy".

Princess Elanor laughed. "Do you want to have a tour of the castle? There are many sights that you'll like, even some that are related to you".

"Me?"

"Yes, your bloodline".

"Oh".

Rex's curiosity was piqued and he agreed to leave with her. Princess Elanor took her time as she showed him around the massive castle.

After spending about 30 minutes going around this massive castle with the Princess, Rex's head was able to calm down a bit. He was fascinated by the sights, and even more fascinated when he really saw something related to him.

In the deep halls of the castle, there was another statue of the same Elf King that was on the gates but not just him this time, there was another statue.

From the blood aura around the statue, Rex instantly knew that he was depicted as a Vampire. "This warrior was a Vampire?"

"Is," Princess Elanor corrected with a smile. "We believe Elder Bam is still alive".

"Elder?" Rex was astonished.

From the explanations of his system, his bloodline level which was his race could upgrade 3 times. The first was below 50 years as a Neonate, the next above 50-300 years as an Ancillae, a Vampire Elder was above 300 years.

Rex's curiosity was piqued instantly. "Who was this Elder Bam to you?"

"He was a Legendary Mystic Warrior just like our ancestor. He was the one who helped our ancestor to seal the Demon Kamaitachi".

"We believe that our Ancestor's prophecy is related to him. To get the inheritance of liberation that was left by our ancestor, 2 warriors need to fulfill stringent requirements but in hundreds of years, we never succeeded".

"We believe that to succeed, a High Elf and a Vampire warrior are needed to cooperate together and is why I paid so much attention to you".

"Wow, can I get an inheritance too?"

"I don't know, we've never been able to fulfill the requirements to enter the chambers of inheritance". Princess Elanor smiled bitterly.

"Can we do it now? I mean, don't worry if you can't allow me to go there…"

"We can".

"We can?"

"Yeah". Princess Elanor smiled. "So long as my parents don't find out, I can sneak you close enough so we can have a peak".

Rex was scared at the idea but so also was he thrilled. "Let's do it".

…

High up in the massive castle, King Algar and Queen Galadriel looked down from one of the rooms of the castles. Through the mystic mirror that was before them, they were able to see the 2 mischievous young mystic warriors.

"I've not seen Elanor smiling like this in like ages". King Algar smiled bitterly.

Queen Galadriel placed a hand on her husband's shoulders. "You know her personality. She has always been obsessed with breaking the curse, she wants to be the difference maker, she hates being second".

"The fact that she was able to invite him here impressed me, it shows that she's slowly learning to suppress her arrogance which is good".

"Just look at their conversations, her arrogance hardly shows anymore".

"Let's just hope, this encounter with this Vampire may change her life the same way that Elder Bam changed our ancestor's life".

"Let's hope that they surprise us". King Algar finally smiled.

…

After bypassing a lot of guards along the way, Princess Elanor was able to lead Rex underground to the most sacred and hidden locations of the Elven castle.

After going so deep underground, Rex saw more things that fascinated him but Princess Elanor could not explain least she alert the guards.

They continued like this until they saw a well-crafted one-handed sword. Rex could not leave this one behind, he was captivated instantly.

He was captivated not just because of the sharp sword's craftsmanship but also because of its feel and life. Having lived over 6 months with Berserker already, Rex could not mistake this feeling, this was a living sword!

"Whose sword is that?"

"Oh, that?" Princess Elanor spoke in a whisper. "That is the sword that was gifted to my ancestor by Elder Bam, he fought the Demon Kamaitachi with it".

Rex wanted to say more but due to the need to keep silent, he could only continue. This way, they soon arrived before the door to the chamber of inheritance.

Rex looked up at the massive door.

...

.....

.....

Rex was instantly attracted by the massive 2-colored door.

Rex secretly hoped for a system mission notification to pop up as he looked at the door but he was disappointed this time, apparently, not every single thing that he did would be turned into a mission by his system.

After removing his mind from the system mission, he finally focused on the door. The left side of the door was green, while the right side was colored red.
