My Daughter is a Vampire

Brian put his hands around her and held her tightly. He hadn’t seen her cry like this. He could feel nothing but fear in her eyes. At first, he didn’t understand why she was so against Lena.

But, now he understood more. Although Lucy was her opponent, Lucy still loved him at least according to her reactions. But, Lena didn’t even love him. She was afraid that her position in his heart will be stolen by a person who doesn’t even love him.

As for Lucy, she only didn’t care because she started feeling Ely as her daughter. Suddenly, Brian asked, “So, something did happen after I lost my consciousness five years ago, right?”

Charlotte didn’t reply but nodded her head while sobbing.

At this moment, Brian clenched his fist and mumbled.

“I am done with running away. No more! I am not going to hide anymore. No matter what happened, I must face it.”

Brian slowly pushed Charlotte and walked out of his room. Charlotte was startled but when she realized his words, she became worried and immediately followed him.

Brian went to his lab. He went to a desk and opened a drawer. He took out a strange gun from it. Seeing this gun, her eyes widened.

“No, Brian, What are you trying to do?”

She hurriedly rushed to him and held his hand. But, he stopped her and said “Don’t worry, it won’t put my life at risk.” f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Then, he pulled a small pinky-sized glass jar filled with a strange liquid and loaded it inside the gun. He looked at Charlotte and said.-?(0)???. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

“Two years ago, I got a lot frustrated about the loss of memories during those five days. I was pretty sure that my memories were incomplete because I couldn’t remember a single thing after my parents’ explosion.”

“But, I didn’t chase those memories because I was worried that all the hatred that I managed to suppress will burst out once again. For three years, my hatred was slowly getting suppressed inside my heart but now, I have no intention of holding back anymore.”

“Two years ago, I created a serum that modifies certain parts of my neurons to the same properties just five years ago during that day. Memories are nothing but patterns of electric pulses. If you get the electric pulses correct, then you can recreate those memories.”

“Taking this serum will allow me to retreat those memories by remodifying my neurons. Someone did a little bit of modification to change those electric pulses so that I won’t remember it. It must be her, right?”

Hearing my question, Charlotte shook her head and said “It was an old lady that suddenly appeared behind her. She must be the Great Prophet. I was running toward you to save you but I was also afraid that you will hate me especially when you stabbed her.”

“I stabbed her?” When she said that, Brian looked at her with confusion.

Charlotte didn’t answer but rather looked at my gun and said “If what you said is possible, you will find out.”

Brian nodded his head and pierced the tip of the gun into his veins and pressed the trigger. The liquid inside that jar came out of the tip and entered his veins.

It immediately moved on its own and made its way to his brain.

Zzzz ?(O)???

Suddenly, Brian felt the electric shock in his brain as his legs trembled. He almost fell but eventually managed to stand.

Charlotte clenched her fists as she kept watching. Brian’s eyelids closed as a barrage of images appeared on his mind. Each image led to a different expression on his face and eventually, he opened his eyes with full understanding.

At this moment, Brian took a step forward and pulled her into his embrace.

“I know what she did. I understand what said did for me but nobody can replace you in my heart. I understood why you accepted her but not Lena. She took a knife from me without even taking a step back but for eight years, you were the one who supported me.”

“Charlotte, let’s meet our daughter after two days.”

Charlotte didn’t understand but she just stayed in his embrace for a long time. After ten minutes, she finally let him go and asked “What do you mean by meeting our daughter after two days?”

Brian smiled and said “Our daughter came from the future. How can we let her go without even meeting her once? After two days, her location will be found and we can finally find her.”

Charlotte’s eyes widened.

“You mean Ely traveled back in time? Why didn’t you tell me till now?”

“I was planning on telling you soon.” Brian bit his lip and looked away.

“But, why did she come here?” Charlotte asked with confusion.

Brian smiled and said “It seemed like something bad happened to me in the future. Anyway, that future is no longer our future. I will explain this later. For now, I need to focus on building a proper power-suppressing bracelet for Wraith.”

Charlotte punched him on his chest and said “Don’t keep too many secrets from me! Although I am not smart as you, I still want to be better.”

Brian smiled and asked, “Then, how about you try getting a Ph.D. in Quantum Mechanics and Dark Matter?”

Charlotte rolled her eyes and looked away.

“I am not kidding. I have written many books about those. Well, Lily was the one who wrote it but the idea was mine. If you read it and understand it, you will get smarter in this field as well.”

Charlotte stared at him and said, “Well, it doesn’t hurt trying.”

Brian brightly smiled and rushed toward his desk. Suddenly, he remembered the books were stored in the back. He ran to the back of those tables where there was a big bookshelf.

His eyes looked everywhere and eventually, he found the books he was looking for. He rushed back and handed them two massive books. Seeing her smiling like that, Charlotte also smiled.

Although she isn’t going to be smart as him just by reading these books, they will gain a lot of knowledge to help him. But, she gave back one book and said “I still need time for training. I have to get stronger, remember?”

Brian smiled and nodded his head.

“By the way, I forgot to ask you. Once you enter the Chaos Online, you can still leave right?” Charlotte asked.

“Yes, we can but according to the rules, we can only leave once after crossing the floor we will be in. Without crossing the floor, we will be stuck there forever unless we give up.”

“But, once a person gives up, he and his planet lose their chance to enter the Chaos Online for eternity.” Brian nodded his head and explained.

Charlotte nodded as she understood but suddenly fell into confusion. She bit her lips and thought for a long time.

“What are you thinking so much for? You can ask me anything.”

Charlotte looked at him and released a deep breath.

“Do you think you belong to the people who created Chaos Online?”

When she asked this question, he was shocked for a moment. He clenched his fist and answered.

“I don’t know. I want to know and I will find out but for now, I have no idea.”

“Alright! Don’t think too much and get back to work.” Charlotte kissed his lips for a brief moment and finally left the lab. Brian chuckled but soon, his expression changed.

‘I will find out. I will uncover each and every mystery about me. But first, I should get back to work.’

When Brian turned around, Lily appeared in front of him and informed him.

“Sir, I just received the sample from Barry and analyzed the atoms of those bugs. I also reconstructed the bug the moment, I did, it self-destructed itself. It felt like someone knew we could reconstruct it and so set it on automatic destruction on the atomic scale.”

“And, even the materials seem to be fourth dimensional. It is astounding that there are people with fourth-dimensional techs to spare in this universe.”

Brian clenched his fist and asked, “What if the person is the one who created the fourth-dimensional techs?”

“Sir, are you suggesting that the person has the same level of intellect as you?” Lily looked at him with disbelieve and ask.

“We can’t overlook that. What if there is a person with the same level of intellect as mine and currently targeting me?” Brian asked.

“But, Sir, what could such a person possibly get from targeting you?” Lily asked.

Brian chuckled and answer “Isn’t it simple, Lily? If someday I decide to abandon that promise, my moral codes, and goodness in my heart, who in this universe could possibly stop me?”

?(O)??? “The powerhouses could indeed kill me but only if they find me. I have thousands of methods to hide but I can’t because I have people with me right now. What if the person targeting me wants to get rid of me because in his eyes, only I can be a true obstacle?”

“After all, even you know that I am bound by many things and thus not reaching my full potential.”
