Chapter 992: 16.38 First Red Star - Mother and Son

The Holy Son of the Templar Temple didn't ask Esther Dawn what his secret is. Since no one questioned, Esther assumed that no one noticed his weird reaction during their first training in the field. He felt relief in his heart until three days after that day one of his subordinates urgently looked for him. It was something he never expected to happen in his life.

Esther Dawn was enjoying tea with his younger sister Amber Dawn, Asher Light, and an unexpected guest, Conri Lycaon, at the school dormitories for the human race. Amber Dawn, his younger sister, had invited Conri Lycaon to join them for afternoon tea. Conri Lycaon accepted the invitation and was surprised to see Asher Light and Esther Dawn at the same table. The two heirs exchanged a look of scorn on their faces.

Obviously asking the same question, 'Why the hell are you here?'

The Dawn Siblings looked at the two glaring at each other as they never got along with one another.

"Your Highness, the Holy Son, your highness the Werewolf King, Miss Dawn greetings. Archbishop Dawn! There is someone who wants to meet you. Please go to the Headmaster's Mansion to see the guest in her office. Do make haste, said Instructor Skoll."

"A guest that even Instructor Skoll and Headmaster were willing to allow you to meet. Normally, outsiders wouldn't be able to come and ask for someone inside unless they got the approval of the Headmaster. This seems important, go ahead Esther," said Asher Light.

Esther Dawn salutes the two heirs and says, "Please excuse me for a while. Amber, stay here with His Highnesses.

"I don't mind but... is it okay for you to go alone?" Amber Dawn asked.

Esther Dawn responded with a smile, "Inside Genus Academy no one would dare to harm a student unless they wanted to end up like the Pope."

"That's also true. Then be careful, brother. Come back before lunch is served." Amber Dawn sees off her older brother.

Esther Dawn glances at Asher Light and Conri Lycaon at the corner of his eyes and whispers to her sister, "Look after them. Stop them if they start fighting."

"They won't fight. If they do, I will return to my dorm and eat lunch alone." Amber Dawn stated.

Asher Light and Conri Lycaon stopped glaring at each other and flashed a grin at Amber Dawn.

"Look, Amber. We are not fighting." Asher Light said.

Conri Lycaon said, "I will treat him as air. Don't worry, Amber."

"What did you say?"

Cough.

Amber's threatening glare quickly made the two young men cower. They didn't want to be despised by Amber, so they put one another second. He felt relieved and left when Esther Dawn saw the two heirs under his sister's control. He makes his way to the Headmaster's Mansion on the outskirts of the area.

As he got in front of the mansion, the gates were open, and he entered after noticing a sign indicating that the Headmaster's office was open. The headmaster's office was easy to spot because a label was left hanging on the door. Esther Dawn stands in front of the door and knocks three times before speaking.

"Esther Dawn from Elite Class had arrived."

An emotionless voice rang from the inside, "Come in."

Creak~

Esther Dawn was greeted with the sight of the headmaster and Instructor Skoll sitting on one couch when the door was opened. He didn't notice the visitor because he was concerned about upsetting the two big shots in front of him.

"Hello, Headmaster and Instructor Skoll!"

Instructor Skoll smiled as usual, but he seemed completely uninterested in his presence. He only glanced at him and returned his gaze to the headmaster, who he was serving some red velvet-colored pastries to the person opposite him.

"Enter. The guest is for you. The headmaster had approved her visitation. So go and meet her." Instructor Skoll said.

Esther Dawn nodded his head and finally looked at his visitor's appearance and was shocked to see the face of the lady sitting on the couch opposite the headmaster and Instructor Skoll.

The lady calls his name intimately, "Este..."

The eldest of the Dawn Siblings, Esther Dawn was stared at by Thana Daybreak with loving eyes and a smile, on the other hand, his face was etched with astonishment and disbelief. On the lady's face are the same expressions in his recollections of when he was a child, as well as the moniker that no one had ever called him in all these years. He was at a loss for words after all that time had gone.

Esther Dawn exclaims, "Why... Why are you here!?"

Thana Daybreak's present look is identical to that of her human disguise. To ensure she appears like a human, she made her skin tone similar to that of an average mortal, but a little darker than a fair one. Vampires are known for their gorgeous looks, so she disguised herself to lessen her own face value, allowing her to blend in with humans so easily with such an ordinary-looking face, particularly the wrinkles that only humans would have at a certain age.

Thana Dawn seemed to be in her forties, as opposed to the youthful shape of a lady in her twenties in her vampire form. The creases around her eyes and at the corners of her mouth gave her the appearance of a regular aunty next door.

Despite the gentle voice calling his name, Esther Dawn's face went chilly, "Stop using such an appearance. I already knew you seem younger than that in reality. Why would a vampire look like an aunty when their looks never changed over time above the age of 30?"

"Este, don't be upset. I will undo the illusion spell I've employed," Thana Daybreak stated after releasing the spell, which made her look younger and more beautiful.

The moment she removed her disguise, Esther Dawn commented, "It was really you. Do you still serve Athan Vladimir?"

"NO! The one I serve is the Duke. I was placed as the heir's guardian to surveil him. Now that there is no heir at the moment I was freed from that task." Thana Daybreak explained.

The mother and son were standing and conversing, making the other two feel as though they were seeing a live theater performance in front of them. Both seemed uneasy with each other, and there is a noticeable gulf between them.

Instructor Skoll said, "Don't block the door. Sit down."

"Ah... Yes, pardon us." Esther Dawn and Thana Daybreak sat down on the couch opposite the headmaster and Instructor Skoll who will pass their time nonchalantly.

Instructor Skoll spoke, "Treat us as Air. We will not lean on any factions except for Genus Academy while we are here. At least this time."

Esther Dawn and Thana Daybreak knew what they were stating. As they are now working with Genus Academy, they would prefer the academy over everything else. In summary, despite being the Progenitor of the Blood Clan, Headmaster Cassius would not side with them while at the Academy. He would remain impartial, as he usually does until he felt compelled to intervene, which was nearly impossible.

"Mother, you've already disappeared all this time. You suddenly appeared as a Vampire with a Noble rank. Does father know?" Esther Dawn questioned.

Thana Daybreak answered truthfully, "Of course, he knows. Or else why would erase all the traces of me before he was taken back by the Templar Temple."

"W-What? Taken away? What are you talking about?! Mom, Dad is dead!" Esther Dawn shouted.

Thana Daybreak retorted, "Nonsense! I wouldn't leave you and hide your identities to avoid getting caught by both the factions of Temple and the Blood Clan if your father is dead! If he is really gone I would have brought you and Amy back to the Clan if I had no other choice!"

Dumbfounded by shock, Esther Dawn looked at his mother with wide eyes. "Are you... saying? Dad is still... alive? But the funeral... that body is real!?"

"Of course it's real. That's a real corpse prepared by the Templar Temple and even made sure it would look exactly the same as your father. They only need to kill someone with the same bloodline as he is and looks a bit like him. Then with a few surgeries that corpse would look exactly like your father. Luciel is still alive. He is imprisoned at the Underground Prison as a sinner who chose to aid me, a vampire. It's the Pope who isn't willing to kill him. Because your father is blood-related to Kenan Light." Thana Daybreak explained.

Esther Dawn denied his mother's words, "Impossible... I have gone to the Water Dungeon multiple times myself. Father wasn't there!"

"Luciel is imprisoned at the deepest layer of the Underground Water Prison. There is no way you can meet him as there aren't even any windows in his cell. No light, slight air, and oxygen, if your father wasn't a strong man he would have definitely died in that place." Thana Daybreak.

A frown appeared on Esther Dawn's face and thought hard about something, "You wanted to save him now that the Pope is out of commission? But that's not easy... Yoru is the one assigned to the Prisons. If there is really an underground dungeon then... It must be him who is designated to look after that place."

"Yoru... You don't mean Mayonaka Yoru!? The Child of the Moon. I heard he has a special Skill in puppetry. He is an Archbishop like you but his strength is even above the current Cardinals. if he is indeed the one handling the Underground Prison then... Our race alone wouldn't be enough." Thana Daybreak mumbled.

Esther Dawn was astonished to discover that the Blood Clan had already planned an attack on the Templar Temple. He casts a peek toward the Progenitor of Blood, who appears uninterested in the topic of their talk or the Clan of Blood itself.

'He definitely doesn't care about his own race,' Esther Dawn thinks as he takes a glimpse at the headmaster. Suddenly, his line of sight was obstructed by a hand, and he realized who was doing it: Instructor Skoll. 'Very possessive indeed!'

Fenrir Skoll suddenly stated, "You shouldn't worry and go ahead with your plans. After all, there is no way that the Fenrir Tribe would turn a blind eye at such a great opportunity to hit their prey~"

"H-How did you know that, Instructor Skoll?" Asked Esther Dawn politely.

Fenrir Skoll answered, "Instinct." The conversation was cut off directly after this word.

The headmaster, who had remained silent throughout, eventually finished his cup of tea and spoke to Thana Daybreak. "If this student is your son, does that mean Student Amber Dawn is your daughter, Earl Daybreak?"

"Indeed, My Lord," Thana Daybreak said, her head respectfully lowered her head. "Esther Dawn and Amber Dawn are this servant's children."

Nobles are not permitted to meet their Lord's gaze on an equal level. It would be deemed impolite to their Progenitor to be on the same level as him yet being far inferior. The Blood Clan maintained a tight hierarchy based on status and power.

Cassius Ambrosia nonchalantly asked, "How come the brother is half-vampire while the daughter is a full vampire?"

"What!?" Exclaimed Esther Dawn. He was about to ask his mother about this only to meet Instructor Skoll's gesture of silence. He can only shut his mouth and listen to his mother's answer.

Thana Daybreak spoke, "Answering the Lord's question, Luciel was transformed by this servant before our daughter was born while our son was born while he was still human."

"What the he--mh!"

Esther Dawn covered his mouth to stop his cursed words. Saying such vulgar words before the headmaster would be going against the school regulations.

'My dad was an ex-human!? Since when has he turned into a vampire!?'

Esther Dawn decided to ask the rest of the questions when he and his mother were alone. He didn't want to be disrespectful in front of the headmaster and Instructor Skoll. He had enough patience to deal with the rest of his mother's surprises.
