War Destiny Of Future - 208 Chapter 200
——————————————————————————-
Secret base. Training room.
Seito and Jason are watching at Itsuki who is now in a semi-conscious state, while Ai and Yuki are having their own training.
“Mr. Jason, is this going to work? He had been in this state for a whole hour.” said Seito, a bit worried.
“Well, he is now in my fake nightmare illusion, whether would it works or not, it fully depends on Itsuki’s own will, but don’t worry, even if it fails, it would not cause any harm to him.” Jason explained in detail for Seito to reassure him, Seito nodded.
In Itsuki’s mental state, he is now standing in the middle of an open area that re-enacts all the fear he had in his past. For example, when he was a toddler, he is scared of a ‘creature that lives in his closet’, which he now found that as funny since he had long figured out it was just some harmless supernatural creature that was hidden in his closet.
Itsuki watched all the reenactments and starts wondering would these actually trigger out his ability to control his magic? Then he saw the scene where the younger counterpart of him witnessed his parents were brutally killed by some man from KILLER organization.
“Ah… So it’s really not Ai-chan, I really had misunderstood her. But is that really how I suppose to be reacted as a kid at that time?” He thought.
Indeed, the young Itsuki looks so calm and rather emotionless when facing his parent’s death. Another strange thing is that, after the killer killed Itsuki’s parents, they stared at the young Itsuki before leaving him alone without even harming him.
“Until now I still think that as rather unbelievable.” He thought again.
After that brutal scene of his parent’s death, Itsuki saw another familiar scene that scared him as a child, it’s two years after his parent’s death and when he first discovered about his vampire gene.
“I remember I went to sleep only to found that my left eye suddenly turned grey the next morning. At that time, I was too scared to let others know and I had skipped school for a long period… Hmm?” Itsuki thought again, but this time, the scene that showed to him is not the same as what he remembered.
In the reenactment, instead of finding out about his grey eye after waking up from sleep, he was greeted by a man that looks exactly like the adult version of himself. That guy whispered to young Itsuki at his ear before touched his left eye and putting him to sleep. What happened after that is the same as how Itsuki remembered.
Then, reenactments start to get really weird, it started to mix in some weird scenes that Itsuki doesn’t seem to have any recollection at all. Some of it seems to happen at other dimensions. The most significant scene that Itsuki noticed is about the man that looks exactly like him having some talks with a man that sits on a throne along with two others that looks equally important. Followed by that is the scene of that man lying lifelessly in a coffin.
“What is that?” He thought.
“That’s my memories, as well as yours.” Itsuki suddenly heard a familiar yet estranged voice.
“Who is talking?” Itsuki asked.
“I am Vlad X. Dracula. Is more commonly known as Count Dracula. But at the same time, I’m you.” said the mysterious voice…
———————————————————————————–
“To trust or not to trust, to hold firm or to let go, it’s all your own choice.” said the voice before totally faded and left Itsuki alone in an empty space.
Itsuki stood still in that empty space without showing any emotion, he doesn’t know whether he should listen to the words from Dracula or not, furthermore, he can’t really understand most of the things told by Dracula, at least not for now.
Uncertain of how long he had stayed in that empty space, Itsuki’s memories about Dracula just now start getting fuzzy again, then he heard a familiar voice calling out for him…
“Itsu… Itsu…”
Itsuki opened his eyes, he is back to the training room again, Seito is looking at him, rather worried.
“Itsu, are you alright? How do you feel right now?” Seito asked.
“I’m fine, I guess?” said Itsuki. “Did everything work well?” Jason asked.
“I’m not very sure about that. Maybe, we can try it out with a simple trial fight.” said Itsuki, not showing much concern about that issue anymore.
Both Seito and Jason feel weird, but still, they agreed with Itsuki’s suggestion.
And so, Seito took out his thousand monster seal while Jason started to focus magic around him…

Meanwhile, unknown village.
Sky and Chris are harrowing the ground while Junior is putting a straw hat on Bob who had been tied up on a wooden pole. Then, Sky suddenly noticed something on Chris’s arm.
“Hey Chris, there is something on your left arm, are those scratches? Ah… It looks like some letters. B. E. N… Hmm? Ben? What’s that supposed to mean?” said Sky, a bit confused.
“Yeah… How did that even get here? But… Ben? I’m feeling very familiar about this name, and seems to have something very important about it.” said Chris.
“I think so too, but what is it?” Sky asked.
“Hmm… Ah… Hold on… It’s… Ah.” Just when Chris about to figure out the missing pieces, the bell once again rang…

*Something out of the story
Sky: “Dear readers.”
Chris: “Hmm?”
Sky: “As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer.”
Chris: “Mhm… There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup… But not recommended.”
Sky: “Ah… Haha. Yes, as Chris said.”
Chris: “But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : “By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it’s cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing.”
