The Nosferatu: Dracul Naruto
Chapter 1: Establishing a Foothold
''Again''
Akasha always wondered what it felt like to train in your vampire powers, to manipulate the youkai within you, and hone it to be your own weapon in battle. In her old life she never had the chance to know the experience as her former parents only put her through mental training of being a future good wife to some noble. It was something the pink haired vampiress wanted to know about, to experience.
Now she was starting to regret her haste...
It was the second day of her new life with her new master, and teacher yet already she could feel a major difference in her then how she felt just last night. After waking up this morning she had felt a change in her body and discovered that she had gained a significant change; first off she had grown a bit more, and her skin looked as if it had paled a bit more then it was before. She also felt significantly more aware, and full of energy then she ever had in her entire life, but the biggest change of all was that she felt her body was stronger then before.
She had been visited shortly thereafter by her master's servant called Frankenstein a nice guy she would say, and she'd been told their master wished to see her for the start of her training. That had gotten her fully awake, and eager to get started. She got dressed, and followed the blond butler out from the castle and to the backyard which seemed to be used for training purposes mostly. She followed Frankenstein until she saw her master in the middle of the training grounds in the same clothing as before.
It was then he had turned to her, and explained to her the changes she felt was the result of eliminating the blood of her former parents, and infusing his blood into her veins causing the change in her body. She didn't understand most of it due to her age, but she knew that she was no longer the same girl she was two days ago.
Nor was she no longer a Bloodriver by blood...
Her Master had made that very clear before he started her training her connections to her parents were gone, and she no longer had a connection to that family any longer.
Then he started her training...
That's where things led to now as the 5 year old Akasha was sparring against her master who said the best way for her to unlock her use of her youkai was to exert herself beyond her limits. Thus she was pit against the very man who gifted her with his own blood.
And she was learning real quick that her Master was not merciful in his teachings as every time she tried to attack him he merely blocked, and countered fluidly yet enough to throw her back to the ground. Yet she also learned he wasn't like her other teachers from her old life who only taught her to get in good with her family.
He was genuinely interested in her training, and put forth the effort to make her better, stronger, and faster.
And already even as the dirt, grime, and soreness of her entire body weighed down on her the young girl was feeling a sense of accomplishment every time she found herself improving the smallest bit. She could feel some kind of energy within her begging to be unleashed, and every time she she attacked she felt so close to grasping it, but not yet enough to fully grasp it.
Nonetheless the girl knew, and her master knew she was close to reaching it...
Even then she felt herself growing more accustom to battle as her mind was already watching, studying, and thinking up new attacks, strategies and counters against her master.
What she didn't know was that Naruto was also thinking along the same lines, but a bit different to how she was already progressing with her first time in actually combat sparring.
As he caught her leg he brought up his forearm blocking her punch before slapping the back end of his hand into her abdomen with just the right amount of force the knock the air of her lungs before knocking her backwards. Though she was no where close to an actual combatant her progress was astound.
'She has an enact ability to think fast, and create strategies on the fly, and due to the transfusion of my blood, and the total removal of her old parents her body had been greatly enhanced. Her speed, strength, reflexes and even her senses have been enhanced. And due to unlocking her vampire self its only made her fighter instinct come through. Still...'
He watched with impassive eyes as Akasha stood up again ignoring the injuries on her body. He could clearly see she was reaching her limit, but the look in her eyes caused him to mentally nod with approval. She had the look of someone who was willing to do whatever it took to get strong along with her incredible willpower he could see her stubbornness and her extreme determination glaze over her emerald orbs.
Perhaps his blood had done more then he had thought...
Glancing to the side he grunted when he saw the amused smile from Frankenstein the man must have saw it too.
Though when he turned his gaze back to Akasha his eyebrows perked when he saw her coming back at him, but he saw it for just a second her eyes bled crimson, and her irises morphed into slits. But the most promising thing was the flickering of red bolts of lighting covering her left leg as it was mildly shrouded in a red malicious aura.
His lips formed into a small smirk as Frankenstein on the sidelines looked at the scene with wide eyes.
'She just unconsciously called forth her youkai, and infused it into her leg multiplying the power in her kick. Impressive child, but now you must learn to willfully use your youkai.' the blond vampire lord hummed in approval before he raised his hand just as Akasha leg connected with his palm.
Boom!
If you had seen the aftermath normal demons would have been left in complete shock, and vampires of this day and age would have turned green with envy at what they saw.
Naruto had Akasha's exhausted, and used up unconscious form over his shoulder, but the result of her kick had done incredible damage. For behind Naruto the entire ground had been up-heaved from the ground, the surrounding tree's were completely obliterated from the shockwave of her youkai infused kick. A deep trench ran through the forest ending just a few yards away, but the destructive power that came from the young girl was something to behold. If it had been any other vampire child they wouldn't have been able to even unleash a morsel of that kind of destruction.
Yet when Naruto looked down at the sleeping child over his shoulder he could see that Akasha truly even before gaining his direct blood had incredible potential to be the Greatest Vampire of her era, but now there would be no doubt that she would one of the most powerful vampires of this era, and in history.
Of that Frankenstein had doubt, and was sure his master would morph the young girl into what she was meant to be.
Then they both heard the young girl snore causing Frankenstein to smirk in amusement at how his master eyed the young girl snoring on his shoulder without a care in he world. Then his master looked at him with a pointed gaze that clearly sent him a message.
'Say a word, and you will die..'
And Frankenstein knew his master would follow through with the threat besides he would never disobey his master.
Deciding it wast best to head inside Frankenstein, and his master walked back to the castle with Akasha snoring away on the blond vampires shoulder.
Then Naruto stopped before he looked to his left his eyes narrowed slightly when he sensed a small surge of youkai to the far east. Hen he turned his head back, and continued his stride.
It seemed he would be getting visitors sooner then expected...
3 Days Later-Outskirts of Dracul Castle
The Vampire Council was a well known group of Vampires that had dedicated their life's to lead their race into a prosperous, and better future for their people. The foundation of the Council's founding had been made with a good cause, but over the centuries after its creation the members of the council had fought and bickered over matters that concerned them personally, and no longer for the benefit of their race as a whole.
The Council was made up of a total of 3 Elder Vampires who were once Lords of their own Noble Houses before retiring it to their heirs, and became Councilors. Each member represented a major Vampire Noble House that had become very influential over the Vampire species. So the power of each member alone was not to ever be underestimated, but the Council's power as a whole was to both be respected, and feared not just throughout the Vampire race, but all of hell.
The members consisted of; Kurochi Kazaki, who had ushered in ways to gather food resources without the need for mass harvesting of human bodies. Tepes Vladimir The VI, who had been the one to stop a rebellion of five minor Vampire Families that would have caused major weakness in the Vampire threshold. Shuzen Drago, a man who used his major influence to gain the alliance of many other Vampire Families from across the globe to serve the Council.
Overall the Council's combined might, and influence was nearly unmatched with the Circle of the Kitsune Shamans in Second.
So let it be known that in this time and age nothing ever dodges the eyes of the Vampire Council especially things that cause great distress or chaos among their own race. So when the Council had been alerted by the huge surge of malicious power erupted in the same location as the heiress of the prestigious Bloodriver had gone missing the same night she went missing they had quickly called for a meeting on the course of action they should take.
Many ideas had been thrown around the chamber on how to deal with the situation or the unknown entity that had released that surge of power to have affected the very sky, and caused the moon to turn blood red. Many had called for a total offensive of wiping the threat out, but the more logical councilors negated the idea, and proposed a more simple, and yet clever way to fix the problem
Go directly to the source as a means to extend a hand of friendship to their newly awakened brethren if the power they felt was truly that of a Vampire, but to also gain information, and if possible find the missing heiress. However their plan had come with two great surprises even before they left to the location.
First off the parents of the Heiress had been extremely adamant in coming to find the young girl, and the three Councilors had been hesitant because their rash behavior may effect their attempt to bring an alliance with the newly awakened mystery vampire. However seeing as the Bloodriver family was a growing influential House in the Vampire world they were inclined to not disagree.
However it the last surprise that truly shocked them all, and the surprise came in the form of...
''Lord Shinso I must say it is a rather big surprise to see you wishing to come with us to meet this new brother. I never knew you to be one to socialize yourself with those not of your bloodline.'' Drago spoke to the most powerful vampire in their era. Drago looked like an middle aged man with straight loose black hair with strands of gray in between that was swept back with old, and perceptive black eyes. He was fair skinned with a black/gray stubble, he was about 5'8 with a strong wiry physique that betrayed his age.
His eyes glanced toward Lord Shinso who strode alongside him. The vampire in question in appearance looked extremely different from his brethren as he stood about 6'0 with a strong muscular physique that was hidden by his noble garment clothing. He was pale and his face was both sharp and slightly feminine, but his eyes were a shade of ebony that seemed to suck in the souls of those that stared to long. His long silver hair was pulled in the back in a ponytail that trailed his mid back with two silver bangs framing the sides of his noble face. He was dressed in noble attire of European tailor craftsmanship. His face remained completely impassive to the Elders unasked accusation, but answered him either way.
''My presence here is only because of my successor in blood has gone missing, and it is within my responsibility to find her. Nothing more then that, Elder.'' he said causing Drago to hum in thought though it was clear that Drago did not completely believe Shinso's words to be the total truth.
After all they were going to find a Vampire who's awakening had caused the entire sky to turn jet black from all across the globe from what was reported by their spies in human society, and the moon had turned blood red. That had always been a sign of a bad omen in legend so Drago knew for certain that Shinso was at least curious.
''I just want to know if our little girl is okay'' spoke a woman with long pink hair with jade eyes. She stood at 5'5 with a fair complexion, the woman's face expressed worry for their missing daughter. The woman wore a long red dress with a ruby necklace around her neck, and a few rings on her hands. This woman was Bloodriver Hotaru wife of the Lord of the Bloodriver House, and mother of Akasha Bloodriver.
Her husband tensed slightly, but no further reaction came from the man besides his face morphing into a stern expression. The man was at least a few inches taller then his wife. His shaggy brown hair fell past his eyes, and ears, his brownish red eyes stared forward with empathy, but the gears in his head were clearly going over the development to what happened to their child. He wore extravagant looking garments that seemed to be of western culture which hid his physique from the eyes of everyone. This man was Bloodriver Mizuki Lord of the Bloodriver House, and father to Akasha Bloodriver.
''Still hard to believe that this vampire has awakened cause I was led to believe no more sleepers had existed or they died out.'' The second Councilor Vladimir said while humming in thought. Sleepers were originally called that, but the term meant for Vampires that had long ago existed before their time and had went into a deep sleep that border lined eternal which pretty much meant death for all Vampires. Sleeps in this era had either long since died of starvation from their century or two of sleep or had been lost to the sands of time, and out of the reach of their brethren.
So to have one to awaken in the human world, and their power to cause such a supernatural phenomenon at that was simply shocking, and was made a priority to find the Vampire at all cost.
Vladimir just gave a small sigh, the councilor stood at the same height as Drago, but his midnight black/gray hair fell down his back while two long bangs fell over his shoulders. His black eyes closed in thought of this new development. His clothing more or less the same as his fellow Councilor's only it was black and red intermixed.
The final councilor, Kazaki, just remained silent as his eyes stared overhead past the forestry, and directly at the looming castle that seemed to be ignored by the eyes of human society. His mind was already thinking at possible theories at how the humans just seemed to ignore the giant castle that loomed at the far outskirts of the small city. Had the vampire cast an illusion to shield his castle from prying eyes of mankind? Or was this some effect the vampires own presence had that caused the humans primal instincts to simply ignore a building that housed a creature that hunted them down like prey.
Nevertheless Kazaki was determined to find out who exactly this vampire was finding the heiress was merely secondary to him.
Kazaki was the 'Old man' of the group as he had a full head of gray hair that fell to his shoulders with a gray goatee to match his brown wise orbs which pierced the veil beyond the forests to see the castle far in the distance. Though his body was old, he still had the greatest wisdom of the three councilors, and his power was still respected even in his old age. He wore a simple black shihakusho with black hakama pants. Around his waist was a green sash while over his shoulders was a black haori while on his feet he wore waraji straw shoes.
Truly he fit the part of an old japanese man that clearly hidden the very powerful former Vampire Lord under this simple facade.
As the group walked deeper into the forests though they all felt a growing force of oppression come down on them a feeling at first they had shook off, but it had only grew strong, and stronger as they traveled closer to their location. The darkness of the forest seemed to encroach upon them, and with the forest blocking out the sky made the situation all the more strange. In fact if Drago's mind wasn't playing tricks on him he could have sworn he just saw his own shadow move.
This was getting creepy even for him...
Hotaru felt a cold chill crawl up her spine as she grabbed her husband tightly normally she was never frightened easy as she was a very prideful woman, but this forest...
This was not a normal forest...
Shinso, unlike the other, knew something was off why was he narrowed his eyes as he looked from left to right catching the slightest fluctuations of the darkness moving about in the shadows. He'd already come to the conclusion that there wasn't any demons around them nor any sentient life form. However he did feel something, and what he felt was unnatural to what he has grown accustomed to. His eyes widened briefly when he caught the sight of a giant orb floating deep in the forests, but what was really surprising was that.
It had opened is eye to reveal a giant red slit eyeball staring back at him as if he were nothing more then a insect, a lowly little worm that held no power in comparison. That feeling was so intense that it froze Shinso right where he stood gaining the attention of the others.
"Lord Shinso are you okay?'' Kazaki said placing his hand on the vampires shoulders causing him to flinch before he regained control of himself to mask his outward appearance.
''It is nothing...'' however in his mind that was an entirely different story for there was clearly something here, and for the first time in his life it had caused Shinso to actually freeze on the spot.
Shinso was beginning to realize that coming here may have been a mistake...
Soon enough to the groups well hidden satisfaction they had finally gotten to the end of the forests, and in doing so when they got to the end they were welcomed to quite a sight. What welcomed them was not the fresh green grass. Instead the ground was just dead the grass had withered, and died and the ground below had turned black. The tree's surrounding the castle were completely withered away, and dead as well completely opposite to the forest they had just left.
Then their eyes caught the huge structure before them, and Vladimir could only let out a long whistle of approval.
''Whoever this vampire is he sure had good tastes this design is clearly from the medieval ages.'' he said while mentally praising the vampires tastes. His fellow councilors though rolled their eyes. They soon came to the door which was a two piece giant wooden door looking up at it Kazaki found what looked to be doorknobs shaped to be demon maws, and merely raised an eyebrow. When he went to grasp it however he eyes widened when he saw the demons maw move.
Then fangs sprouted from the maw and it quickly snapped shut, but he reacted just in time to pull his hand away. Clearly however he saw the demons eyes glow a faint red as it grinned revealing its razor sharp fangs in a sinister grin.
''Elder?'' Shaken from his stupor Kazaki looked at Drago, as both him Vladimir and even Shinso eyed him with confusion. Then he turned his head back to the doorknob only to see it hadn't changed in the slightest.
'What the devil was that?'
Shaking his head at his fellows strange behavior Drago took the initiative and grasped the doorknob missing Kazaki's slight flinch before knocking on the door.
Then they waited, and the councilors could tell the Bloodrivers were getting the most anxious or impatient in the woman's case, but soon they all heard doors open. But they saw someone on the other end, and the person caused a few eyebrows to be raised when they saw a blond haired man with sharp blue eyes look upon them with a smile.
''Hello honorable guests, may I inquire as to why a group of vampires are here?'' he asked in a polite fashion, and though they were surprised that he could read them so easily Vladimir saw no reason to deny the man the answer to his question.
''We're here to meet the Lord of this Castle a Vampire that awakened just a few days ago. Are you him by chance?'' he asked causing the blond haired man to blink in surprise before he gave a amused chuckle. They watched as the man took a step back as he swept his right arm across his waist.
''Oh no I am not, but you must be talking about my master please come on in I'm sure he would like to speak to you as well.'' he said with a bow where the Elder gave a nod before he and the rest of the group followed the blond haired man down the hall. They were able to see the décor, and they were amazed at such variety of decorations in just this hall alone.
But for Shinso he had his eyes solely on the back of their guide with a stern gaze something felt extremely...off about this man. He couldn't put his finger on it, but his man did not give an aura of any demon he had come across in his life, but he DID feel a rather malicious aura from the man though it was very well hidden.
'I better keep my eye on him...'
They followed Frankenstein through the hall, and soon they came to two giant doors at the end of the hall, and it was there the blond haired butler raised his hand knocked on the door.
''Master, guests have come to speak with you.'' he said
The seconds passed by before they all perked up when they heard a response.
''Let them in...''
Nodding, Frankenstein pushed the doors open causing a great rumbling sound to fill the chamber, but as the group walked into the chamber they all felt one thing when they took that first step inside the chamber.
A malicious sinister oppressive aura coming down on them, weighing them all down. But they were still able to keep their posture with some struggle, but they all wondered where that pressure was coming from.
They soon found out...
They all found their gaze drawn forth like a moth to a flame as the far end of the chamber, and up a few steps was a black throne, and sitting in that throne was a man.
A blond spiky haired azure slitted eyed man wearing a strange apparel of armor they had never seen before. The man sat in the chair with a stoic expression on his face, his right arm rested against the armrest while his left arm was up with his hand propping his chin as his disinterested eyes gazed down at them. His azure eyes stared at them all for just a second before he spoke.
''Now, who are you, and why have you come to my castle?'' his blunt, and rude inquiry was not lost on them. Then again the Elders theorized the Vampire did not know of who he was speaking to, and was rightfully in right to question a bunch of stranger coming to his home uninvited.
Shinso stared at the man with narrowed eyes when he looked at the other blond that greeted them at the door he at least could feel something from him, but this man was different. He wasn't doing anything, and yet the sheer pressure weighing down on not just the others, but even himself caused alarm bells to ring in his head.
Was this mans sheer presence causing such a pressure? Was he even trying?
Kazaki stood up to answer Naruto, ''My apologies on the behalf of my fellows, kinsman. Let us introduce ourselves, I am Kurochi Kazaki, and these two others beside me are Tepes Vladimir the VI and Shuzen Drago. We are of this era's Council of Vampires. This man behind me is Lord Shinso, and behind him are the Bloodriver Family.'' he received no response from the man who just kept his gaze solely on them.
''And why is it you have come here?'' Naruto questioned
''To offer a hand of friendship to you brother, and offer you a extension of our hand to have an alliance with us. We can also offer you a-''
''What year is it?'' Naruto questioned causing Kazaki to pause in his rehearsed speech he gave to other Vampire Lords to join the Council. It caught him off guard at how the blond vampire seemed to just ignore his words, and instead of asking such a simple question.
''It is 1634 A.D, kinsman...'' Drago answered
Naruto just hummed in thought before he cast his gaze back at Kazaki.
''I see...'' though his face expressed no emotion his mind was already thinking on how long he'd been asleep.
'It truly has been more then a Millenia...'
'Ahem' ''Kinsman, as I was saying we the Council can offer you a place among our brothers and sisters, if you are so inclined to agree you will benefit from agreeing with resources, and servants.'' Kazaki said before he saw Naruto merely stared at him for just a lingering second.
''...I have no need for resources as I have my own ways of gathering supplies, and as for servants I have no need for subjects that are not my own. So is there anything that you could possibly offer me to even consider joining you?'' he said in a monotone fashion. His words struck then three Elder's to make them rethink of what they do offer him.
Normally Vampires usually accepted the offer at first chance cause resources in human blood was difficult to come by without potentially exposing yourself. Others that didn't accept they just ignored from thenre on, but since this Vampire's awakening caused a great deal of panic across the globe, and the surge of power that erupted from his location made him a potentially powerful vampire.
And they would be fools to not get him on their side...
Thinking it over Vladimir's eyes lit up before speaking, ''How about in addition to joining us as a allied house to the Council you get to attain the right as a independent House. Also as a sign of good faith we can offer you a substantial amount of information to anything that is within our power in return to your agreement, and service.''
Those the offer caused the other two Councilors to glance his way with apprehension it did make a compelling offer.
Looking at Vladimir, Naruto mused over the offer for a minute or so before he looked toward Vladimir with a stoic expression.
''I will agree to your terms on one condition, and that condition is this. If anyone so much as comes at me, anyone associated with me or my Castle within or outside with ill intent I will act with the appropriate action needed be it another demon or one of our own.'' he said causing the Council to blink at the rather small condition. They didn't see the trouble of of the offer, and accepting it would gain them an ally, a powerful one at that.
Nodding to one another Kazaki spoke, ''We the Council agree to your condition, and to explain what it is you do in return to being an ally to the Council. If we are ever in need of assistance we can trust to call upon you, and trust you to answer our call. Now may we know the name of our new ally?''
Staring them down, the blond Vampire Lord spoke, ''My name is...Naruto...Dracul Naruto.''
Satisfied with their answer the Council nodded that is until Naruto felt a burning gaze upon him, and he turned his stoic gaze on the Bloodrivers. When he saw Hotaru giving him a ugly stare he raised an eyebrow.
''May I help you, Ms...?'' he left his statement linger causing Hotaru to glare even harder, and when the Council saw this they grew a bit stony at the woman as her behavior to their newest ally was threatening the very alliance they just built.
''My name is Hotaru Bloodriver, and this is my Husband Mizuki Bloodriver, we also have come because we have certain information that our child and heiress to our Family was last seen here. However she disappeared right when your awakening erupted, and so I ask you. Have you seen a 5 year old child that has my hair and eyes? Her name was Akasha.'' she said causing Naruto to give a small frown.
Mizuki gave a small scowl to the man as well, they had planned to have her kidnapped after 'disappearing' on her during a stroll in the woods, and have the people they hired take her to a noble that would have gifted them in return some level of nobility, and then say to Lord Shinso who would have come by to take her that she'd been kidnapped, and held for ransom by that very same Noble who would have been accused of kidnapping the child of the Bloodrivers, and Successor to Lord Shinso himself, and whatever he would say would have been ignored or told as lies to save his own hide.
But they had miscalculated on the man before him who's awakening caused their plan to go awry. Now they had a missing child that was their only ticket to a live of nobility and prestige.
Soon Naruto's eyes lit up for the briefest moment before he leaned forward as a small glaze of recognition came into his eyes.
''Ah yes you must mean the girl that had stumbled into my tomb prior to my awakening. However I am sorry to say that girl no longer exists.'' he said causing the occupants besides himself and Frankenstein's eyes to widen at his words. Though they all missed the amused glaze in the blond servants eyes before they disappeared.
Shinso frowned visibly at the news, the mans words sounded so vague, but it caused a great deal of alert within him. What had happened to his successor?
''No longer...exists? What do you mean by that?, Explain!'' Hotaru shouted as she took a step forward as her youkai pulsed slightly.
Then suddenly Hotaru felt something against her neck, and her eyes slowly looked down to see the glint of silver blade at her throat.
''Take another step towards Master, and I will end your pathetic life where you stand, worm.'' Frankenstein's voice cut through the chamber. The coldness of his tone, and his sharp eyes narrowing down at Hotaru caused the woman to freeze up. For just a moment, the smallest of moments she saw an untamed amount of bloodlust in those blue orbs.
As for the others they hadn't even see him move until he had spoke, and that caused a great deal of surprise and apprehension. This was no mere servant if his speed could go undetected by even their standards, and even Shinso had cast a appraising eye on the blond haired man.
''Frankenstein, that is enough.'' Naruto said, and just at the threatening aura that as radiating off the servant it just as quickly as dispersed when he heard his masters words. He disappeared before appearing at his masters side just as quick. Satisfied with this Naruto turned his attention back on the woman, and the other occupants
''As I was saying before I was interrupted the child unfortunately was in close proximity of my coffin, and the resulting backlash of my awakening cause my surge of power to release upon her. It was too great, and she was vaporized in result, so you have my condolences.'' he said.
The Bloodrivers couldn't believe what they just heard, Akasha was dead? Their one chance to nobility and fame gone? All their planning, and years of work in training the child to be a perfect wife to a noble, and bring fame upon their house was all ruined? Soon the youkai started to build up within their body, but before either of the two could unleash it upon this man who had ruined their chances.
Lord Shinso stepped infront of them with his eyes staring blankly into the equally stoic eyes of the Vampire infront of him. In truth he felt some resentment towards the man for killing his successor, but he also couldn't fault him due to it being an accident.
However when his eyes stared deep into the azure ones of the Vampire before him Shinso suddenly felt a prickling sensation inside his head before it went away.
''I see, we will trouble no longer Lord Dracul we will be leaving right now lets be off.'' he said causing the others to nod while the Bloodrivers hesitantly under the glare of Shinso followed him in step. Just as they left the door, and their presence left his barrier Frankenstein's face morphed into one of amusement.
''My oh my, the Vampires of this day and age are truly to gullible my lord. It would seem your plan has succeeded.'' he said causing Naruto to give a small nod before he released a sigh.
''The Council thinks that now that I have accepted that I will answer to their beck and call, and obey them like a dog. Only they have brought upon the cause of their own destruction, and as for this Lord Shinso I have left a special gift for him.'' he said causing Frankenstein to smirk slightly.
''And what of the Bloodrivers, my master?''
Naruto just scoffed before he spoke, ''It is not my place to deal with scum like them, is it not...Akasha?'' here he glanced to his right to see Akasha Dracul fade through a black smoky veil through the wall. Her face remaining stoic nearly identical to her Masters, but the scarlet glow in her ruby red slitted yes showed the untold amount of anger within.
''No, I will not let you dirty your hands will filth like that my master, let me be the one to deal with them in the future.'' she said with a twinge of bloodlust in her voice. Frankenstein just smirked at the young 5 year old Vampiress. The training in just the last few days had done wonders for her and with his masters blood running through her veins had caused a significant change in her. She was still starting, but already she was very powerful, and was already training in her abilities that she had discovered.
But there was one thing that caught his attention...
Naruto just gave a nod before he stood up from his seat before he raised his hand before placing it ontop of Akasha's. Giving her a small pat on the head showed his approval of her, and the scene caused the blond servant to smile.
For he saw it, but hidden under the girls pink bangs her cheeks flushed shyly at the touch of their master. Glancing shyly away Akasha stood there as Naruto pat her head for the briefest moments.
It was moments like that Akasha was growing to like as it was the first time she had ever gained the approval of someone, but when she gained the approval of her master it was different as that was all that mattered to her now. He was the one who brought her on a new path of her own choice, and her own free will, and it was because of that she was now attaining the power of a true Vampire.
She owed him everything, and even more and to serve him faithfully and completely was the only thing she could think of as of now.
Perhaps another way would arise in time...?
2 Year Timeskip
It's been 2 year's since Naruto was confronted by the Council, and his agreement to join them, and as the years flew by somethings have changed in the Dracul Castle. Firstly, was the fact that after the Council had left his castle had been getting many visitors of late. Many of them had been other demons that had come in search of the one who released that monstrous power, and chose to claim some form of fame by killing the one who released it.
Now those very same demons were either killed or he had used them as practice dummies for Akasha to train on.
Another thing was that Naruto had begun to use the opportunity to start back his army, and by doing that he had gone under his castle, and opened the old gateway to where his old army of his era once resided. Ffrom there on he had used the bodies of every demon that came to his Castle, and he killed off, and brought it back as his undead minion.
It would be a slow process, but he knew in time his army would be in full force once again...
The third thing that had changed was in the form of his own student after two years of living within the Dracul castle her growth had only increased in both body, and mind. Her demonic power had increased tremendously from the previous time when she had first been training. Her battle prowess from sparring with Frankenstein had gone up as her mind adjusted to more advanced techniques, and counters that was starting to even cause the servant to put forth a little more effort.
She hadn't sparred with her master since the first time, and she asked many times as to his reason why, and his reasons were always vague that cased her to pout.
However through it all the young vampiress had trained as hard as she could, and beyond at first to become a true Vampiress, but now over the years her desire was to gain the approval of her most precious person. And she had time and time again she never failed to gain his approval, and soon the pats on the had become her favorite things.
The Council had yet to contact Naruto though, and he had used that time well in planning his next move.
Sitting down at his study Naruto looked over the seal that Akasha had said was on his tomb before it burned away luckily he was able to conjure a replica from the residue of what was left to make a copy. Although it held no true power the true significance was all in its design, and appearance.
His eyes scanned the sigil, and they narrowed when he came across the 11 names all around the outer rim of the seal. His other hand clenched the desk causing his nails to sharp thus carving into the wood.
''Naamah, Lilith, Adramelech, Baal, Belphegor, Asmogeuas, Astarot, Rofocale, Beelzebuth, Molok, and Satan. You all thought you killed me, but now that I'm back I will make sure that you suffer for your actions against me. You eleven were right to fear me because now there won't be a shred of mercy for any of you now.'' saying this his eyes glowed crimson before the whites of his eyes bled ebony.
'And that's a promise...'
