Count Voltaire's New Reality Pt. 2

The midterm of the morning came when construction workers finally arrived to renovate the house.

The master engineers, my cousin, who's older than my father, are still strong regardless of how skinny and dark his skin looks.

Here, then, I finally proved to my father I could read people's minds and give the workers advice on what to do with their issues and life problems and personal concerns. I was charismatic, charming, and superficially intelligent, far beyond the human mind.

Here then, my father finally agreed to let me go outside the house after this all happened.

After a decade of being locked up, I took myself out into the real world.

The sun, however, is about to turn me into dust.

So, I came running to the shade slowly.

"It's almost December. It's a bit cold in the morning, right?" asked the woman sitting on the chair

"No, it seems that I am allergic to sunlight is all. I have to wait for the clouds."

"Rainy seasons is over, little boy."

"A pleasure to meet you, madam. I came from that house over there. It is getting renovated."

"Yes, I saw the men came through this street."

"You may call me Dio, but in the Council, they call me Count Voltaire."

"Dio? Your real name is Klei, right?"

"Ah yes, my 'human' name, rather."

"Human? You are human."

"Do you want me to prove it that I'm not human?"

"Oh no, that might be scary."

"It is not scary… I put illusion through my words that can hypnotise people to seduce me."

"Really? Seduce me…"

"Looks like you already fell into my trap. I know you are a happily married woman with a son and daughter and a newborn child recently. I cannot destroy such relationships that are most precious to the Earth that God made for you."

"There is no God…."

"I can, however, give you immortality."

"My husband is not at home; my kids are with him on a trip to Baguio."

"Will you invite me in your house for the mean time as I wait for the sun to be covered by the fog of the skies?"

She giggled, "Of course, Klei. Come in."

The dogs were barking at me.

"Be careful. They bite."

"A mad dog, it seems."

I went to tame the dog with my Romanian chants, and it worked on the mad dog, making it calm and like me and lick my face.

"How did you do that, Klei?"

"I'm not human."

She invited me in as I intruded.

She was easily seduced. Her heart seems that she's been lonely since her family's trip outside the province.

So, we had a one-night stand and bit her neck and cut my wrist for her to drink my blood.

And then, as she passed out, I left, cleaning myself.

I looked at the mirror. I can see myself younger again. Still, I have a reflection…

I went outside of the house through the back and took myself through the shadows of the houses.

My goal is to feed as much as I can as long as they give me consent.

I spent my time going to Guagua through the shades.

Good thing I stole…. "some" of her money. She doesn't need that anymore. She doesn't have to eat food anymore.

I went to buy a Monster Energy Drink and a pack of cigarettes. I visited that tranny that dearly misses me all these years without me in the parlour shop. A salon.

I looked through the glass window smoking a cigarette, and the tranny saw me.

I winked at her, and she smiled.

She came outside during her break time as I awaited her.

I was in the shade of the structure with a good design with a roof over my head where I smoked and drank more Monster Energy Drinks.

"I missed you… Kakihara. Or Shi-chan?"

"Yeah… working for the Yakuza is tough shit."

"A lot of people say to me it's easy for you to genocide an entire clan yourself inside a building over 500 yakuzas. Is that true?"

"Well. I'm a vampire."

"Yeah, they did mention to me you're not human."

"What family are you from? Oh right, Shinda. I forgot I can read minds."

"Yeah, you are in Shinda, too. I heard you demoted yourself from 2nd rank over 200 million members to the very lowest rank. Why?"

"I wanted to enjoy myself. Instead of doing Yakuza jobs every night, I just want to live in peace."

"Yeah, and they say you eat people."

"I can eat your dick."

She giggled.

"I can pound your sweet little ass too if you lube it with your mouth, baby."

She grabbed a smoke and lighter and puffed next to me.

"So… the red dragon tattoo on your chest, as I remember."

"I don't work for the Yakuza anymore."

Then another one-night stand. I don't even need to hypnotise her. She gave me lots of money too.

I went back home before 8.

"As you said, father. I came back at 8, or rather, before that."

"Good. What did you do today? Did you have fun?"

"I made lots of friends to like me."

"Did you drink their blood?"

"HAHAHA!! OF COURSE, I DID… not. Honestly, why would I attack humans? Unless I turn into a mindless beast again."

"Then you should be locked up."

"I'm fine,, father. I hypnotised my friends to give me some money after reading their mind in exchange for sharing my dark magic as a blessing to gift them… taught them how to do it. And then, I ate very rare steaks at Samgyupsal restaurant."

"You serious?"

"I have to feed Dad. look at me. I became younger as if I'm 12 years old again. Before I left, I looked 21."

He sighed and gave up, but nonetheless, he still let me go outside every day.

"Looks like you all are drinking now."

"Klei. Am I drunk or you look younger?"

"Both. So. How's the hard work? Did it pay off well?"

"Hell yeah. Drink with us."

"No, you moron, he can't drink alcohol."

"Shit, but he's an adult, his own man now. Plus, his dad lets him go outside."

"I don't drink. Only cigarettes. I already drank my sleeping pills,, so it's time I head back to my room."

I went back inside my room.

The Next day the same thing happened, the construction workers went here again.

But I decided to stay for a while now.

"Good morning people."

"Oi, good morning Klei."

"Was the ale good too much for you last night?"

"You mean the beer? Hell yeah."

I felt saner and a bit more human after the blood spree yesterday. Only just two people.
