Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

—–

“Alright!”

Like that, we all went our separate ways, wandering around the immense house and looking at all of its secrets. Eventually, I settled down with a room that had a large window and plenty of space which I needed for my spirits and all the things I wanted to bring here.

As I sat down over the bed to relax a bit, someone knocked at the door.

Knock, knock!

The door quickly opened after that, as Erika showed up.

“Oh, so this is your room!”

“Ah, you found it pretty easily.”

“I can feel your presence from afar, fufu…”

Erika quickly sat down at my side, hugging me.

“Thanks for the ring again, I really love it.”

“Oh, that. Yeah, I am glad it’s useful.”

I sighed a bit, looking into the window.

“Huh? Something’s on your mind?”

“Hm, I am slightly worried.”

“Worried?”

“About you.”

I looked back at Erika’s eyes.

“E-Eh?”

“Aren’t we going to meet your mother later today? Are you not nervous?”

“I…”

Erika quickly changed her cheerful manner, quickly nodding a bit.

“Y-Yeah… I’ve been trying to pretend I am alright.”

“It’s hard, I know.”

“Hmm…”

Erika sighed.

She held my hand looking back at my eyes.

“Of course, I am going too. If you want, we are all going as well.”

“Yeah, I think that even if I don’t invite them, everyone’s going to stick around anyways.”

“I guess you’re right.”

Erika approached me with smiling lightly, as we kissed beneath the sunlight passing through the window. I gently held her cheeks, caressing them softly.

She smiled beautifully after that slow kiss, she looked so beautiful, I felt like my heart was beating faster.

My previous life never experienced such warm and beautiful feelings before.

It made me felt so happy.

“I’m so glad you accepted my feelings… I always fantasized one day I would give you a kiss…” Erika said while fidgeting.

“When you were little?” I wondered.

“Y-Yeah… But you were so grumpy back then, it was hard for me to imagine we would even be like this right now…” Erika said. “You’ve changed a lot yourself, haven’t you?

“I guess… You’ve changed me a bit, and… everyone else as well.” I sighed. “I am truly grateful for… evyerhting you’ve done for me as well.”

“Eh? Me? I… I haven’t done much myself, right?” Wondered Erika, innocently tilting her head in confusion.

“You’ve done more than you imagine, your presence, your friendship. Every day being there for me… It healed my heart.” I sighed.

Recalling my previous life memories there were many things that broke my inner self, it made me someone hollow. Erika and everyone else with me, the rest of my friends and my family, all of them… Ellergest and her father as well, that are no longer with us.

They all healed my heart… they made me see the more beautiful things in life. The brighter side that I always neglected. The simpler things I could never truly enjoy.

Erika’s eyes shone brightly.

“That… has done so much for you?” She asked.

“More than you imagine.” I sighed. “Thanks for everything.”

“Aw… Don’t worry.” Erika smiled back at me, giving me one last kiss. “I’ll gladly be as much as you want at your side, Blake… My gratefulness is mutual as well.”

We ended hugging each other in silence, enjoying the sunlight coming from the large window.

In peacefulness and quietness.

It was such a simple thing, yet it filled me with bliss.

I wanted this moment to last forever.

…

But such moments are fleeting.

Perhaps that’s why when we remember them, they’re such beautiful memories.

Such moments are also precious due to how fleeting they are.

When things don’t last long, we hold a greater value to them.

They become more beautiful.

“Alright! Now we should get going, we don’t want it to get any more later, right?” Asked Erika cheerful said. Her smile has always been like a sun to me.

“You’re right, let’s go.” I said with a nod. “Ah, I have to prepare some things first, so go tell everyone. I’ll leave once I’m done.”

“Oh, alright!” Erika ran off without thinking it twice, as I was left alone.

Solitude was often a thing I appreciated back then, but now it has become a rather painful thing. Is this how normal people feel sometimes? Well, it’s not like I am truly alone.

Another gorgeous maiden, with a vampiric beauty of supernatural levels emerged at my side. My partner of all my life. While Erika is the sun of my day, she is the moon that guides me through the night.

“Uwah! That was so cute!”

And she really liked my relationship with Erika, actually. I guess she had grown too close to Erika now, she would had felt heartbroken if I had rejected her feelings.

“Did you had to peek so much?” I sighed.

“Ahh… W-Well, it was so cute…” Eleanora sighed.

“Well, it’s fine. Although I said that to Erika, I still remember how precious you were to me in my previous life, and now as well, Eleanora.” I said to her.

“E-Eh? Y-You don’t need to be so emotional…” She sighed.

“No, I know you wanted to hear that as well. I don’t want you to feel left behind.” I told her, as she sat down at my side.

I gave her a gentle head pat.

She blushed, her pale skin growing redder.

“Then… You wouldn’t mind asking another thing?” Eleanora asked with a cute and seductive smile. Her beautiful red eyes glowing brightly.

“Yes?” I wondered.

“Let’s… have a date too?” Eleanora asked.

This was perhaps the first time she approached to me in such a way.

I think she knew I liked her as well, but Eleanora was often too distant in these types of talks.

Or often times, she didn’t knew how to sort out her feelings, so I never really pressured her.

Unlike Erika, she’s actually a very shy maiden.
