Chapter 128: Velryna Scarlet... you are mine forever

In the newly formed mental world of Ziriel, a subtle change was beginning to occur as the White Dragon observed the newly awakened being.

"It seems the time is coming," Voralith said, and two men appeared by her side, one of them was Lorio and the other an old man.

"You seem excited," Merlin said, observing Voralith's reactions, different from the usual in their conversations; he had never seen such a reaction before.

"Of course, this is impressive," she said, summoning two Tomes, yes, the same tomes from ancient times, the legendary magics that Morgana gave to the boy when he was young.

"What do you intend with this? I thought Excalibur alone would be enough," Arthur said, seeing the woman holding the two Books heading towards the cocoon containing the body of a being.

"He needs power, doesn't he?" Voralith said and then, opening the two books, two power spheres began to float.

"Fragments of the Goddesses, Tsukoyomi and Amaterasu," Voralith said aloud and began to merge the two spheres, compressing them with all her strength.

"Ah, it's been a while since I've dealt with these things," she said, making an effort and compressing both energies into a single small sphere, the sphere was golden but emitted a purple light, as purple as darkness.

"At least this way he doesn't disrupt the balance, being killed in vain was enough," Voralith said and walked over to the being.

Slowly she took the remnants of the tome and set it on fire, burning it over the cocoon of the body and then, with a push, sent the sphere with strange energy into the cocoon from behind, where the sphere went directly behind the heart of the inert body.

The chain reaction was an earthquake in the mental world, which slowly began to change again, the skies became completely dark, without a trace of light, but at the same time, a huge sun could be seen rising on the horizon, growing exponentially.

"This is..."

"Different from the previous body, this one has no affinity with magical elements, now however... I sacrificed the magics and turned them into their pure elements, Fire and Darkness," Voralith said with a smile... 'Just a little more, child... your thirst for revenge will make sense soon... keep training...'

Ziriel woke up that day, tired, feeling her heart heavy, it seemed like something bad could happen at any moment, but she didn't indulge in continuing to think about it. On the contrary, she had to continue her plans. The discovery that Ethan no longer had the Hero's Blessing made her more relaxed;

What she needed now was to figure out how to deal with the Imperial Knights, especially the elite accompanying the Emperor and Ethan. In a general context, even Velryna couldn't afford to choose her allies yet, so she had been trying to find allies among the barons and dukes, but...

Nothing had been valid, mainly due to the lack of real offers; most of the offers she responded to were about marriage, something she couldn't afford at the moment.

At this moment... "Ah~~" Ziriel's loud sigh made the Princess look at her in a sad way.

Despite wanting Ziriel's company, she knew she was holding Ziriel to herself, with no reward other than bringing down her brother, she was feeling guilty.

"You can leave if you want," she said, already losing hope. "Actually, I'm thinking of running away," she revealed, making Ziriel, who was lying on the couch, sit up.

"What did you say?" Ziriel questioned, looking seriously at Velryna. "You heard, we have no more chances... with Nighsphere sealed... Simon won't be able to come to help us, it's just you and me against everyone in the Empire," she said, her face displaying upset and heavy expressions.

Ziriel felt awful for a moment; she didn't want to see that expression on Velryna's face.

So, she began... she began to reveal the truth.

"You know, I met your brother ten years ago; he was young, arrogant. It was fun to play with him," Ziriel spoke and Velryna's expression changed completely. "What did you say? Ten years ago he was in Kry-"

Ziriel's words cut over Velryna. "Your brother is one of the three people I hate most in this world." Her aura began to spread through the room, leaving the atmosphere heavy. The heavy words in Ziriel's amber eyes reached Velryna and she trembled, trembled with... fear.

"What- what are you saying?"

"You already know who I am, don't you?" Dante questioned and only felt a nod from the girl who was too embarrassed to say anything.

"Geez, I took so long to show you this and you're going to treat me like this? I should have only told Simon, he was my employee anyway!" Dante replied pouting, and Velryna's hands slightly opened, revealing her embarrassed face and her two blue orbs that looked like planets, so large were her eyes.

"Geez, why so beautiful?" Dante questioned and placed her facing him. "Aren't you afraid of me? I am the Demon King, you know?" Dante questioned. Little did he know, but... Velryna actually admired Dante's figure for many years.

Simon told her several stories about this man, and when he died and saw what was left, she saw how important he was, to the point of having two of the strongest known individuals sealed. To her, Dante was unattainable...

"I'm not afraid of you," she said, turning her face to the left, not looking at him.

"Is that so? Too bad, I would love to intimidate you a lot," Dante said, his smile clearly revealing what he thought of Velryna.

"Why... are you telling me all this, Dante Scarlet?" She questioned, for the first time using his name, Dante, was angry.

"You know, I realized I can't let you give up, or go somewhere else, much less get married," Dante said, looking into her eyes that stared at him. Seriously, he said, "You are too important not to be mine." Velryna's eyes slightly opened in surprise.

"Y-you yours?" She questioned, it seemed like she could break at any moment. "Of course... or don't you want to?" He questioned.

For a second, Velryna saw a movie playing in her head, from the moment she heard of Dante, when her brother who hated her almost got killed. Then, the movie shifted to a scene of Velryna watching her brother having fear attacks during the nights, something that made her extremely happy, after all, it was like a punishment for being that disgusting person he was.

Shortly after, Velryna's eyes saw Simon, telling how Ziriel looked like Dante, something that now, seems like a joke, because they are the same person.

Velryna felt on cloud nine for a moment; she felt something inside her, as if a big puzzle had been put together.

The reasons why he would go to Hellsing, the reasons why he knew and hated her brother, the revenge he wanted, the fact that he understood Simon, perfect spear techniques, complete sword techniques, the lack of experience with dresses and noble clothes, all of this led to his true identity.

The Demon of Devastation, the man himself who gained a Demon King name by Two of the Virtues, the Man who revived after ten years. A kind man to those he loves, caring and affectionate yet unyielding against his enemies.

This was Dante to Velryna, or rather now, this was Dante, who before anything else, was her first true friend, the first person who didn't care about money, status, and properties by her side, the only one who fought not only for revenge, but to save her kingdom.

How could she deny such a man? How could she simply say no, to this beautiful face and to this feeling of comfort, something she never had even at her home? It may seem desperate, but she had plenty of reasons to believe in him, and above all, she couldn't deny that her romantic interest in Ziriel was great. Since the day she said she would kill if she got married, that flame was ignited.

Now, though...

"I want to," she said, without hesitation, and Dante's smile widened. Before he could respond to anything, Dante sealed her lips.

Velryna was surprised as she felt a different heat entering her mouth. She tried to push him away, but it was too late; she was caught in the man's embrace, it was impossible to escape. He began to caress Velryna's back, who fell to the side onto him, positioning her body over his.

Dante didn't let Velryna breathe anymore; her breasts began to press against his chest, and Dante's hand reached her buttocks.

*Badump* Velryna's heart raced as suddenly a shock came to her buttock. *Paf* She felt her whole body tremble with the slap she received on her perky buttock. Dante didn't stop for a second to taste Velryna's lips; then, when she finally thought it was over...

She looked at the man's face, still panting; her blurry eyes saw only one vision. A long bright smile of a man completely surrendered in her arms. Dante's eyes were so possessive that his vision was in black and white, and only Velryna was colored. He couldn't help but sigh and finally say out loud.

"Velryna Smith..." "No, that's gross, let's change that forever, after all, your family wouldn't approve, right?" He said smiling as he stroked the long golden hair of the lady in front of him, who was red with shame.

"My little Velryna, mine, only mine..."

"Velryna Scarlet... you are mine forever," Dante said, with his gaze almost engulfing the girl in front of him, who began to look at him with the same look, as if they were both synchronizing, and slightly she said. "My... Dante."
