Lord Maxwell [chapter 9]

The next day, Alucard could be seen docking Sara as he stepped down, but that is when something caught his eye. "I'm sorry, but I can't help you. Even if we recover the sunken ship, it won't be operational, and fixing it will cost you more than what you paid for," said one man to another elderly gentleman. "But I've spent all my savings on that boat. I can't afford another one, and I have a family to feed," said the elderly man, tears forming in his eyes.

Alucard, upon seeing this scene, looked at Sara before looking back at the man. With determination, he walked up to the man and handed him a couple of keys. "Here, her name is Sara. Take good care of her," he said, and the man stood there, stunned. "Are you serious? I can't believe it. Won't you need the boat?" asked the man, to which Alucard replied, "Its time has come. It's time for me to move on," Alucard further confused the man as he stared down at the set of keys.

"Thank you. I don't know how to repay you," said the elderly man. "Don't worry about it. I just hope you can feed your family. And take care of her, trust me, she will take care of you too," Alucard said as he walked away. But Alucard was heading to a nearby car shop to buy something, and that something would mark the beginning of his new career.

[1984]

The world was in chaos. Shops were being looted, cars were set on fire, and it looked like an apocalypse had taken place. Many people were running, either from something or towards something. "I guess it's about time things spiralled out of control," said an older-looking man, who appeared to be in his eighties, as he sat on a bench in a park.

The elderly gentleman stood up from his seat and slowly walked towards the park's exit, where two men in black suits stood beside a car. "Sir Ethan," said one of the men, extending his hand while opening the car door. "It's fine, I will walk," said the elderly gentleman. "Sir, it's currently dangerous outside," said the other bodyguard, but the elderly man was stubborn and insisted on walking, to which the guard reluctantly agreed. Suddenly, someone appeared on every available screen in the area, on buildings, televisions, and billboards. The man claimed to be able to grant any wish possible, and it turned out to be true.

The elderly man looked at the man on the screen with suspicious eyes, when suddenly someone next to him made a wish. It was a man who looked exhausted, wearing formal attire. "I wish I was able to create another me to do all my work," said the man, and suddenly a clone of him appeared, making the man ecstatic. "Well, I guess I found the source of the chaos," said the elderly man to himself as he moved on.

[Extraction successful] A sudden screen appeared in front of the man, revealing himself to be Alucard as he restored his appearance.

[+ duplicate creation] "Useful," thought Alucard as he suddenly started to fly and then went invisible. He was currently heading to where the man named Lord Maxwell was, to have a little chat. But as it turns out, someone arrived before him. "Diana," thought Alucard as he looked at Diana in a different armour fighting a humanoid animal woman, whom Diana seemed to know as they used Diana's lasso to grab onto power poles.

[ extraction completed ]

[ + superhuman condition ]

[ + claw retraction ] 'Another upgrade is always welcome' thought Alucard as he went inside, leaving Diana to deal with the woman, once inside, Alucard saw in person who was granting wishes, he was standing in front of a camera, and was talking to people and granting wishes as their wishes could be heard, Alucard also used extraction on, [ extraction completion ] [+ wish granting ] ' nice' though Alucard as he summoned his attribute panel.
