Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

The moment Nikolai arrived at the location specified he noticed it was quiet. The area wasn't as busy compared to the times with Nikita or Selene. That reminded him to make time for Selene, who seemed to become transformed after losing her virginity.

[From Selene]

Are you okay?

You didn't reply, so I got a little worried....

Hey~ I saw this and thought of you. Do you want to go with me? (Image of an opera house and overnight stay.)

Hmmm.... Where are you?!

Hehe, I bought them! (Picture of two VIP 5 Star Tickets for the earlier Opera in five days.)

'Is that guy still not here? I should respond... but five days from now is the night after my duel with Alistair. Does this mean she has confidence that I will win?'

Because he didn't see anyone who reminded him of Lord Baldon, he began typing his response while taking a long sigh. He sat against the wall, feeling the cold stone against his elbows. It felt quite nostalgic, like waiting at the bus stop for Mira in the past during cold winter mornings.

'Though he offered to take me to his gym in the city's south. To think he also had a special private gym in the Nexus...'

[To Selene]

I'm great not that I've read your messages. Sorry, I was dealing with an annoying wolf and her scary mother.

That looks like a pleasant hotel. Is it going to be me and you alone?

I really look forward to that. After I beat Alistair, what will we tell the world?

—

Nikolai couldn't help but smile after responding and attaching a picture of himself in the new suit from the night before. Selene always seemed to enjoy seeing pictures of him wearing expensive and neat clothes.

'I hope that makes up for me missing her calls. Nikita wouldn't let me go all night and almost killed me.'

Meanwhile, a series of slow steps echoed from behind, causing him to turn quickly to see the familiar face. It was Lord Baldon—his eyes seemed to be red in the light but sometimes flickered with a silver light.

"Oh? Are you already here? Damn. You really weren't lying, kid."

"Huh? Ah, Lord Baldon? It's Nikolai, please don't call me kid, haha."

The handsome Lord Baldon just smirked at Nikolai, rubbing his chin before tapping his shoulder. His strength caused Nikolai's body to shudder and his bones creak from the power.

"Show me what you've got today, then I'll consider it."

"Of course!"

Nikolai didn't pretend to be someone amazing in front of someone stronger. He just wanted to get down to business and fight.

"Well, for now, take this and call me Brother Alexei. If you survive this training and don't quit, then from today onwards, I'll be your brother."

"Hmmm, but why? There's no merit in it for you, right?" Nikolai asked while rubbing the back of his head and accepting the blindfold that Alexei handed over.

'Though I don't mind if he truly means it... I'd rather have friends I can trust, after all. He's kinda like me. Is that why I feel so comfortable around this guy?'

"Hahaha! Well, if you survive, I will tell you, though I am surprised you didn't ask your father. I am glad, though—let's go. It might make you feel sick travelling through the portal blindfolded, so take it easy."

Nikolai didn't respond because he felt relaxed, so taking a deep breath. He accepted the black blindfold wrapped around his eyes and even stopped his obsidian eyes from seeing anything.

'I've never had an older brother... but in this life, I think anything is possible.'

Alexei's large hand clutched his shoulder, causing him to feel weird as the man's aura felt surprisingly cold. Not that it was unpleasant; it was just surprising that such a hot-headed man could be so cold inside.

'Well... whatever. Let's do this!'

Alexei guided him towards the portal. It felt strange to move and walk without vision. However, after a short time, Nikolai felt a sense of balance and used his ears to sense the movement.

"We're about to enter the portal, Nikolai. You ready?"

"Ah, I'll be fine."

***

Not long after that, Nikolai felt the strange sensation of his body becoming weightless. The portal's salty scent and the cool jelly texture wrapped around the pair before sending them into a new world.

"Hrrk.." Nikolai's enhanced senses seemed to work overdrive with his eyes closed. He tried to steady himself but staggered and smashed into a wall. "Ugh... fuck!"

"Don't panic, it's normal... especially for you." A warm hand rubbed his back and gently patted it in a slow rhythm, causing Nikolai's stomach to relax and his nausea to fade away. The touch of the woman felt comforting and strange, much like her voice. It didn't feel human... or like a vampire.

"Haa... you should be good now, right?" A voice from a little distance away sounded. It was Alexei! But Nikolai couldn't recognise the female voice from before. "Is this the boy, Alexei?"

"Ah, doesn't he look cool? Let's take him home. I'm going to help fix his body and posture, and it's the least I can do."

The two people spoke while Nikolai remained feeling horrible. His nausea and dizziness slowly faded while learning more about the couple. It seemed the two were close, most likely lovers, but somehow. Nikolai felt the female must be a strange race; each time she moved, there was a wet sound, like slime slithering.

"Ugh..."

"I see. You still haven't thanked him in person? Well, what he did for us, I am sure this boy will be the same kind of person."

"Haha, no way they are identical. This kid is already engaged to two women, both princesses of the werewolf and vampire races!"

"Oh, my?"

Slowly, a warm and calm feeling overwhelmed Nikolai. Somehow the voice of the female and male made him feel nostalgic thinking about his mother and father in the past.

"Ugh..."

'Why am I feeling so emotional now?'

[I am happy that boy finally found a partner... though he's got interesting tastes, fufu!]

The cheerful sound of his mother caused Nikolai to become curious! He wanted to see the woman's face, but sadly, they seemed to arrive as the sound of trickling water... a lot of it entered his ears.

"You should be good now, right?" A hand slapped his back, sending him flying, and he suddenly fell, reaching out desperately. He then landed in warm water with a loud splash, but the water felt comfortable.

Nikolai nodded his head and took a deep breath before removing the blindfold.

"Wow... such a beautiful house..."

It was like something out of a fairytale... a house built in the centre of an enormous sea of water, twisting paths that led into the house. A strange home that seemed to be built for both a normal person and someone who might live in water.

"Oh? Do you like my home... haha! Hey, Luisa, this kid likes your taste!" Somehow, Alexei sounded happier. His voice was loud and full of power before a swishing sound came from the house.

Then, several tentacles wrapped from the inside, causing Nikolai's instincts to switch to defensive mode; however, he saw a lovely.

Yet a small human body sat atop the tentacles, a pretty woman with long blue hair and red tentacles.

"This cute little woman is Scylla, my wife, Luisa!"

***

A while later, Nikolai finally recovered from the shock that his wife was this lovely sea creature. However, when he thought of Nikita and Selene, there was no judgement from him. He quickly gave an apology and greeted them.

"Sorry, I was a little shocked but seeing you together now, you really suit each other."

"Oh My?!" Luisa covered her cheeks while her husband nodded. He seemed pleased by the reaction after recovering from the shock. The Scylla were a rare race, almost rarer than the Báthory clan of vampires.

"Good! Let's have a quick bite to eat, and then we'll start to fix your posture and spine. It seems you underwent some extreme evolution, and it's caused a few distortions in her bones. However, it will hurt like hell. I promise this is the best for your future growth. I'll also give you the books to study this kind of thing."

"Darling, why do you speak like you're going to do it? You sound like some kind of thug, thanks to our uncle. Little Nikolai, don't worry. I have been studying the medical arts for more than two hundred years now! My ability to adjust and improve people's bones and posture is quite famous!"

'This lovely woman who seems stronger than her husband feels really reliable!'

What made Nikolai shocked was the one who wore an apron to cook food was actually Alexei!

"Ah~ darling is so sexy when he's chopping those vegetables; look at his forearms, fufu." With the eyes of a predator, this soft and fluffy woman couldn't hide her true instincts as a monster! This was the first time since being born that Nikolai felt intimidated by a woman! It was only a few moments later that he realised the terrifying truth as Alexei's aura exploded from the kitchen.

"I love you so much, darling! I can't believe you're doing this just for me..."

Alexie was cutting up, "Dinner?" which was a huge shark with horns!

The scene of the handsome, muscular man without an expression wearing an apron and slicing up a shark. At the same time, using kitchen utensils to block it, trying to bite at his throat, was a mythical sight to behold.

But Nikolai didn't want to brood over it. It was better not to ask and enjoy the food.

So, after a moment, he looked up and asked Luisa about her skills and her advice about his body, and then he mentioned the women he knew.

"So, although you can help me, I wonder what I should do about the women around me. Do I need to book an appointment with you? Or maybe I could learn from you if that isn't too rude...?"

The woman giggled while shaking her head, her long tentacles wrapping up and down the chair's legs while her small body sat on top of it.

"It's no issue, dear. Though, it would be nice if you could bring the girls around and give me someone to chat with Fufu. I don't mind either way. It's up to Alexei; if you manage to endure, he will have no issues."

"Brother Alexei seems to be a great man. He must truly treasure you."

"I KNOW RIGHT?! Haa....haaa... you can see his good parts, right?!" The eyes of Luisa glowed with a golden light. Her pupils became hearts as she panted and emitted a massive aura, almost crushing Nikolai's bones.
