"Hey, I'm just testing you, Old Dawg! Just take it." Noah said, handing over the blood medallion to him.
With teary and gentle eyes, Ancestor Dracula said, "Cath, I'm sorry for pushing you to the edge but I always thought of you as my daughter." He wiped his eyes with his sleeve and continued, "Give me your hand."
It touched Catherine this time. Swelling up with emotions, she stepped forward and reached out her right hand.
Ancestor Dracula held her hand with his from the backside and then he placed the blood medallion on her hand and started chanting a mantra. Soon, the blood medallion turned misty red, diffused into her palm, and turned into a red tattoo.
Then he placed her hand on Bobby's and said, "I now pronounce you man and wife!"
By that time, the two ancestors felt that something was wrong with Catherine. Soon, they found out the reason and looked at each other, blushing.
"Are we done yet?" Bobby asked.
"Yep," Noah responded, making a slashing motion in the air with his hand and a long spatial tear appeared in the air.
Bobby picked her up and jumped into the spatial tear while saying: "Sorry sirs, I've got some urgent matters to attend to. I'll be leaving first."
"Wait!" Ancestor Noah said, "You have returned your wedding dresses here…." But it was too late, as the couple had already exited through the spatial tear portal.
When Ancestor Noah was also about to jump out to go after them, Ancestor Dracula halted him, saying: "Little brother, wait! I suggest you stop following them for now."
"Why? But I need those wedding dresses here." Noah questioned.
"I'll tell you why," Ancestor Dracula replied, "Noah, you may be the strongest person here on the earth, with space law manipulation as your biggest trump card. But, for blood law, you're just a toddler in my eyes."
"Oh, come on. Stop beating around the bush!" Noah said.
Ancestor Dracula responded, "Fine! After they drank each others' blood, I sensed something wrong with Catherine and you felt something wrong with her too. But now I understand the true reason. Damien's blood reacted strangely inside her system, acting as a strong aphrodite. Now, do I need to continue?"
Noah pondered for a few seconds and blurted out, "Oh, now I understand why the lad was trying to stop during their blood exchange ceremony."
"On top of that, I felt Damien's blood has a strong familiar smell, and I have been wondering all this time. But now I remember it." Ancestor Dracula continued with a nostalgic expression, "It's the smell of Priestess Mother Phoebe's blood."
"You must be kidding me, right?" Noah asked in disbelief. But on seeing Dracula's serious expression, a series of plausible theories kept appearing in his mind.
"Do you know his mother? I mean, his biological mother?" asked Dracula again.
"No,"
"Do you perhaps wonder the same in my mind regarding his birth mother?" Dracula questioned once again.
Noah nodded his head agreeing and after a long sigh, he said, "Anyway, I can just ask him myself?"

A spatial tear portal appeared in the air just above the island. A few seconds later, Bobby jumped out while carrying Catherine in his arms, landing on the ground with a thudding sound.
Catherine's face flushed red like a hot iron. She started caressing his face and said in a meek tone, "I can't endure it anymore. Let's do it right now."
But Bobby looked around and started running toward a bushy place that came into his vision.
Next, the moaning sound of the two came from the bush for over three hours. And they came out feeling all refreshed, wearing fresh clothes. Yes, they were not in wedding dresses anymore.
"Where are we heading now,….dear husband?" Catherine asked, still blushing, and her last words were forceful when she used that honorific.
Bobby caught her, curling his left arm around her dainty, snake-like waist, and jumped up in the air. With a thought, a pair of red wings protruded out from his back and he started flying up in the air while fluttering the wings.
After flying for eight minutes, Catherine saw a large black wooden ship hovering and hiding within a cluster of white clouds. "Wow, it's the legendary Black Dragon Ship! Are we riding on this?" She asked.
"Mm-hmm, it's mine," Bobby responded. Then, after a minute, they landed on the deck of the ship.
Catherine released herself from him and looked around. Then she asked, "Are we having company?" And she whispered while giggling, "On top of that, a top-notched beauty. Is she one of my sisters?"
"Not her," Bobby responded. "Alright, follow me."
It took Kimera Onsen a bit when he brought a lady onto the board, but she acted normal and greeted them as if she was just a guest, to begin with.
The three interacted for a while and after sharing a warm breakfast, Bobby ordered Kimera to drive the ship toward the hidden palace of the Elven Olden Family.
Then he and Catherine went to another compartment of the ship, leaving Kimera alone in the cockpit.
"Humph! This damn womanizer." Kemira Onsen cussed, bringing out all the emotions she had been swelling up inside her chest. But she soon calmed down and now the guilty feeling soon flooded her mind. "Tsk, this is so frustrating!" She yelled as she realized they had gone to a private compartment to do the thing that happened between a man and a woman. While raining down full of curses, she navigated the coordinates of the Elven Family's secret palace and started the engine, revving. Soon the large black wooden ship zoomed, traveling toward the only island continent.
Bobby and Catherine were now in a luxurious-looking cabin. But they were not doing as Kemira had imagined because they had recently done the beautiful deed on the island.
Catherine jumped into bed and slept quickly. While Bobby sat down on the floor and closed his eyes.
