"You want to teach me about Ki now?" I ask with a voice full of surprise.
"Yes and no. If you were listening to the conversation I had with your mom yesterday, you must have heard when I told her that it's hard for vampires to learn Ki. It is a very torturous method compared to the way humans learn it. However, since you're a special vampire, you might be able to learn it the normal way." Alphonso says as he suddenly sits down on the tiled floor in a lotus position, gesturing to me to also do the same.
Nodding my head, I sit down in the lotus position.
"Do as I do. Firstly, relax your palms on your thighs. Next, cross your middle and index fingers together." Alphonso says while he crosses his middle and index fingers while still resting on his thighs. Following carefully, I am able to do exactly as he did.
"Good. You've grasped the first step. Now, stay still while I do something to you." Alphonso says as he gets up and sits down behind me before placing his two palms on my back.
Suddenly, I start to feel something enter my body through my back. The feeling is neither painful nor soothing. It's just a feeling of something entering my body. A feeling that I have never felt before.
Sometime later, I begin to feel as if my consciousness is fading away. And in the next moment, I see myself in a dark room, butt naked. And In front of me, is a large red glowing ball that is radiating with an intense vampire aura. Besides this red aura, there's also a tiny white speck of light glowing like a firefly. This white light is almost non-existent and even normal human eyes might not be able to see it. And lastly, standing right in front of me is the smaller version of myself at about the age of 10.
Suddenly, I hear a distinct voice...
"Defeat the smaller version of yourself and try to grab that small light." The voice reverberates across this space. This voice is none other than Alphonso's.
Hearing his words, a smirk forms on my face.
Defeating my smaller version huh? I was weak as fuck during this age. This will be easy peasy.
"Aargh...ahh." I let out a shocked sound as I can feel his hand passing through my stomach. B
However, before I can register what is going on, my body starts to disintegrate before vanishing, and I finally regain consciousness.
Pant. Pant. Pant. Pant.
I start to breathe heavier than I ever before. All my body is covered in sweat from head to toe while all my joints feel sore. Even as an undead with a demonic bloodline, I have never felt like this. My heart which barely works starts to beat very fast as if it's about to fall out of my chest.
"What was that, master?" I ask as I am finally able to speak after catching my breath.
Right now, my master is no longer sitting behind me. He's standing before the windowsill, gazing down below.
"You failed... We are going to forcefully perform the acupuncture and acupoints method for you." Alphonso says while he lights up a cigarette and begins to smoke.
"W-What's that? Can't we try again?" I ask with a stutter. I have no idea what my master is talking about.
"Unfortunately, we can't. That will break your sea of consciousness. The best we can do is to try the other method. Before I could use Ki, I also went through that torturous method."
"You're making me scared. Is it that painful?"
"It's really painful. However, you should only think about the gain and accept the sacrifice." Alphonso explains as he walks towards the wardrobe of the room and picks up a jacket.
He continues...
"I am leaving this place. I'll begin the acupuncture and acupoints method on Roth. When you return to earth, come to the dojo." Alphonso says before turning into many bats and evacuating the room through the window.
'Sigh, I feel so pathetic. I wish I hadn't been too overconfident and let my guard down. I thought my younger self was going to be weak.' I think inwardly as I get up.
Suddenly, something starts vibrating on my wrist. And in a flash, a holographic screen appears on my wrist. This is the mana watch that Myra got for me.
"Ah, I bet I have tons of missed calls and messages, but I should read the recent message first." I mutter as I click on the message Myra sent to me.
[Myra: Come to the dining room, honey, breakfast is ready. I am sorry for lashing out this morning, but what you did was wrong. And I am still mad at you. ?>|<?]
Oh, how sweet of her? She apologized even when I am the one who is at fault. Maybe she thinks I am leaving for earth because of what happened. I have to clear up the misunderstanding. But this is so sweet.
I smile at the message before dismissing it and walking out of the room. Mmm, I wonder how this morning's breakfast will turn out. Anne and Hayes should also be awake by now. Moreover, Anne and Hayes' breasts are getting bigger these days. Is this some sort of development?
I contemplate perverted things as I walk into the royal building.
