Chapter 31 Dragon's Blood



"ARGH!!" Klaus grips his teeth as his fangs seem to burn. He has never felt pain like that, but instead of being upset, he is very excited because he can feel that pain changing his body and improving it.

​ He tries to organize his thoughts and remembers that he was in that room with Irina, then they found an old book and a bottle of mysterious blood; he didn't think twice about drinking some of that blood, but then things got out of his control.

First, he had a vision of that mysterious non-human woman; in fact, he seemed to see the world through her eyes. But before he could figure out what happened to her, the vision ended, and he began to feel her blood changes his body from the inside out, breaking his bones and tearing open his muscles.

"Klaus!? Klaus?!?!" Irina tries to help her beloved, but she can't do anything but watch his suffering.

"I'm fine…" He smiles at her as his bones creak. "This blood... it's very powerful... but I can handle it."

"I'm worried; this looks bad!!" Irina is panicking because Klaus is clearly in a lot of pain, and she can't help him.

"No..." He tries to calm her down, but then the changes in his body get more intense; his pupils change again, and even red scales appear over his skin. "AHH!!!"

"What the hell is this? Scales!?" Irina is perplexed. "Whose blood was that???"

Klaus smiles as he sees scales like that woman's scales appear over his skin. He's never liked his body being too human-like, except for the fangs, so he's happy with that change.

He had always imagined the dragons as giant mythological beasts, and the appearance of the Dragon Princess shocked him greatly. But now, he can't describe her as a beautiful and hot woman to Irina, or the fairy may get mad.

"It was a creature with horns and wings..." He doesn't lie to Irina, but neither does he give her a detailed description of the Dragon Princess.

"A dragon!?" The fairy has heard of dragons on the continent of Esnya, just legends of the few merchants who manage to cross the dangerous seas.

Klaus sits on what's left of Ann's bed as he tries to control the changes in his body. "Yes, it should be a dragon."

Irina can't help but wonder if Klaus is going to get horns or wings or something, but a part of her also wonders why her blood didn't have such a reaction in his body. She has many questions now, but she is more concerned about his situation rather her curiosity.

She kneels in front of him and places her hands on top of his. "What can I do to help you, my love?"

"It's really okay, my dear... I just..." Klaus' expression turns sad, not because the changes in his body are increasing but rather stopping.

"What happened??" Irina notices that the vampire looks disappointed.

He looks down at his hands and sees the scales disappearing; also, his bones and muscles stop changing. Whatever was happening to his body, it just stopped.

"It wasn't enough…" He sighs as he gazes at the bottle of blood in his hand.

Irina can see the desire to drink more of that blood in Klaus' eyes, but she doesn't know if that's a good thing or not. "Don't drink it anymore, please! I don't want to see you suffering like that again!"

The fairy cannot understand how Klaus' instincts influence his actions; it was his instincts that allowed him to fall in love with her as they told him that she is very pure and would be good for him.

Now, those same instincts tell him he has to seek out the Dragon Princess because their connection is already profound.

Klaus really wants to drink that blood and feel that fantastic power changing his body again, but he won't do it now.

"It's not enough." He sighs as he holds the bottle of blood. "Even if it can complete the transformation, I wouldn't manage to keep it for more than a few minutes."

Irina can see how much Klaus desires the power of that blood and that it produces conflicting feelings in her. "You want to hunt the dragon, don't you?"

He tries to make a solemn expression. "More power to me is more power to you, more power to us and our family, my dear."

The fairy turns red with rage and starts hitting Klaus without using any force, of course. "You perverted idiot vampire!! How could you suggest something like that after what we agreed?!?!"

He gets baffled. [How could she know about the Dragon Princess?? Is this some kind of sixth sense boosted by jealousy???]

"Don't look at me that way!!" Irina complains. "I heard you say a woman's name just ago!! You can't hide it from me; the damn dragon is a woman, right?!"

"Ehh..." Klaus begins to understand that Irina's jealousy will be one of his greatest adversaries ever.

But when the situation only seemed to get worse, he heard a necromancer running towards that room; that person is truly saving his ass. "More enemies are coming."

"FUCK!!" Irina curses as she flies quickly to the door, breaking it and arriving in the corridor, where she sees the necromancer.

The fairy knows there is nothing she can do to assuage the jealousy in her heart, but she can vent her rage by beating up that poor necromancer; it's not like his people deserve any mercy after all.

The necromancer gets startled when he sees the angry fairy flying towards him, carrying all the fury of a jealous woman. He tries to run away, but she is too fast and punches his head violently.

*BAM!!!*

The blow is so strong that it fractures the poor man's skull. He gets dizzy and can't do anything as the fairy keeps punching and kicking his body.

"You little piece of shit!! This is what you deserve!!!" Irina shouts at the necromancer as she hits him to death.

Klaus puts that ancient book and blood bottle in his storage ring before going out into the corridor and hugging Irina from behind, pulling her away from that necromancer's mangled corpse.

"Calm down, my love." He whispers in her ear as he rubs his nose on the back of her neck. "Why are you so angry?"

Irina feels Klaus's gentle touch warm her heart, but she is still upset. "I don't want the first thing you do when we leave this damn place is go after that dragon woman."

He turns her body so he can see her face. "Why would I do that? Did you forget that we have other more important plans now? Killing that woman, rescuing your new sisters..."

The fairy can't help but smile when Klaus refers to his sisters as also her sisters, so she lovely pouts. "Is this a marriage proposal?"

He tenderly smiles at her and kisses her lips. "You are already my wife, Irina, and no one in this world or any other can change that."

"And you are my husband, only mine!" She speaks with determination. "So I won't let you go after some dragon woman or any other bitch!"

"Hahaha..." He laughs at how cute she can be when she's angry. "Even if I go after her blood at some point, you will be by my side as my wife, the one I love above all."

"Hmm..." Irina tries to maintain a serious posture, but hearing Klaus says that he loves her so much puts a smile on her face, especially because she can feel in her heart that he's honest about that.

He gives her peck kisses all over her face, making her giggle. "I don't have any intention of changing you, my love; you're perfect this way. But what about we put that issue aside for now and focus on killing that woman?"

"Alright." The fairy agrees, then she notices how Klaus' aura has changed. "Incredible... you reached the fifth layer of the Martial Nocive Realm with just one sip of that blood!?"

"I think so..." Klaus nods. "I feel a lot of power running through my body right now, but I don't know how long it will last, so we have to take this chance."

"Yeah, let's kill that bitch." Irina turns her fury back toward the Sect Master.

Klaus focuses his senses again, and this time he hears screams a few hundred meters away. [That must be her.]

So without thinking twice, he takes Irina's hand and runs towards those screams.
