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

-----

After what seemed to have been a full-fledged journey across the enormous Spiritual Realm I had, we finally walked out of it, my Spirits flew out of my Realm, and I opened my eyes.

I was sitting right in front of the garden, but we were not alone anymore, there was Erika just sitting right next to me, playing with her Doll Spirits.

"Oh! Blake you're awake!"

She hugged me tightly and kissed my cheeks adorably.

"Were you meditating? No matter how hard I talked to you, you never responded!" She was a bit upset.

"Ah, well, I was inside of my Spiritual Realm." I said. "Sorry, I was too busy to pay attention outside. I'll invite you inside with everyone else later so you can see it."

"Eh?! I thought only Spirits could enter it?" She asked.

"Once you grow strong enough, it becomes a physical realm, so anybody can enter… But that is also a bit dangerous by itself." I sighed. "Nonetheless, it is a rather wondrous place. I'm sure you'll like it."

"Woow! I wish I could get my own Realm eventually…" She sighed. "At what Rank do I get one?"

"Rank 5." I said.

"Ugh… So 100 more levels to go! What a pain…" Erika had already hit Rank 4 and her level was reset to zero, and now she had another one hundred levels to go before being able to breakthrough Rank 5.

"Don't worry, if we raid the White Dragon's Mountain, all of you should be able to at least gain a few dozen of levels." I said with a nod. "Though, we'll be leveling the most once we reach the Elven Continent and clash against the invading Demon Army and Fafnir's Army, which seem to be cooperating together."

"I see…" Erika sighed with a rather tired expression. "Honestly I don't want to be reminded of work, we're on a vacation so let's just relax~ Oh, Eleanora! Were you exploring the spirit realm too?"

"Yeah, it is a wonderful place! We had quite a few adventures there." She giggled. "I'm sure you'll like it, Erika. Especially the big Yggdrasil Tree that has grown there."

"Eh?! You've got one there?" Erika was flabbergasted.

"I wouldn't call it an Yggdrasil Tree; it is a Spirit Tree." I said. "It doesn't possess the Yggdrasil Name."

"And so are the guys around here! But they're all still descendants of Yggdrasil." Erika pointed at the giant trees adorning the village's surrounding forest.

"Well yeah… I guess." I shrugged.

"Let me see it! I am a sister with all of them now! Remember that you made this new body using Yggdrasil Wood and a magic crystal from a Dryad after all!" She pouted.

"I know, I know." I nodded. "We'll do it later though, don't be so impatient."

I kissed her little and cute nose, as she stopped pouting and then kissed my lips back.

"Okay~ But let's make out for a bit… We couldn't really get going with all your family there." She looked into my eyes with a slightly teasing smile.

"Do we really need to…" I sighed.

"For a bit!" She quickly started kissing me again. "Come on… Let me suck on your tongue a bit…"

"You've gotten lewder for no reason…" I was trying to mask it, but she was making me really embarrassed.

However, I quickly noticed my Spirits were still here, so I better cut it out for now.

I gave her a single kiss in her lips and then stood up.

"Let's go eat breakfast, we'll have some time alone later." I smiled.

"Fine~ But make me some pancakes!" Erika asked, following me from behind as I walked back inside the house.

"Alright, anything for you." I said.

"Aww~! Do you love me that much?" She asked with puppy eyes, holding my arm.

"Yeah, but I worry I might spoil you too much now…" I wondered.

"Heheh! I love it when you spoil me." She giggled innocently.

She was really and truly a sunshine, this girl…

Always making me smile no matter what, her giggle often lifting my spirits every time I heard it.

It is hard not to spoil her when she's a source of endless bliss for me.

"Fufu, it is so adorable to see the two interact like this…" Eleanora giggled in the back.

"Erika is such a cute girl…" Celestina was making a weird face.

"Why is auntie Celestina making that face?" Saphira wondered.

"Don't pay attention to her face, girl." Woo sighed.

"Yeah…" Eriant agreed.

The Vampire Spirits had turned near invisible through their translucent forms, made to save on spirit energy and mana.

It allowed them to accompany us around and interact with the world without bringing too much attention to themselves.

As we went back home, I heard mom and grandma were already awake, cooking breakfast together.

My father was still asleep because it was the weekend and he usually slept until late, tending the crops is important but his Mouse Spirit dedicated himself to help, and moved independently even when he slept.

In fact, as we moved back home, we noticed the little mouse working on the fields as usual. It ate any bug, bad herb, or even other mice it could find as its "payment".

It had been growing quite fat lately, it is sure a glutton…

"Oh dear, you're back." My mother said. "Were you tending the crops with Erika?"

"Ah, no, I was meditating and doing other things." I said with a slight embarrassment.

"Heheh, yeah." Erika giggled teasingly.

My mother and my grandmother looked at one another, smiling…

"I see~ Well, you're free to do as you please, but make sure to be careful, alright?" My mother said.

"Hohoho, I always knew little Blake would be a very active young lad." My grandmother laughed.

"W-What? No, it is not what you're imagining!" I facepalmed.

"Yeah it was that!" Erika nodded, thinking they meant just kissing.

But these two ladies meant something completely different!

Knock, knock!

However, interrupting their laughter, someone knocked at the door.

"Blake? Erika? I'm here for breakfast! I brought cream puffs and coffee!"

It was Elizabeth.
