My Blood Legacy: Reincarnated as a Vampire
Chapter 12: Mom's Job

After the Kings' meeting, the construction of the academy began, and Dante received the news that when he turns thirteen, he'll go to the Royal Academy.

Initially unconcerned, Dante began to wonder about the Academy where he would study. His mother had put a lot of expectation on it, and he was curious.

Skyla, the chief maid, made a point never to disclose what really awaited him, but Dante decided to focus on his training.

Now, he was almost five years old, just a few days away from his birthday, and Valentina finally decided to start the training of little Dante.

Dante was excited. He often saw his mother do incredible things like flying and using her flames to burn things or do simple tasks.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Dante said, seeing his mother sitting with glasses on her face, reading some papers.

"Oh! Sweetheart, I'm working," Valentina replied. She started doing this to keep the family well enough for Dante to develop.

Valentina dissociated herself from Vlad's force seven years ago when she began to go through her real aging process. She became more aware of things when she finally freed herself from the uncontrollable bloodlust that haunted her, and then she adopted Dante and performed the ritual to pass her blood to him.

"Working on what?" Dante asked. He usually wasn't interested in work, but he quickly wondered what the strongest woman would work with if not killing?

"Mom's faction is growing," Valentina said, standing up. "Since I'm out of Vlad's army now, I needed to create my own force to sustain the household and you," Valentina said, turning around.

"We've established a Guild to manage everything more easily. The Guild's name is Hellsing. We help rulers with problems that only skilled warriors can solve," Valentina said, sitting back in the chair.

Dante pondered, but this job was truly his mother's style—controlling an army from home while taking care of her young son.

"I understand. I hope you didn't only use women and called them Valkyries; it would be problematic if Odin found out," Dante said, looking at Valentina, who suddenly began to whistle.

"Mom," Dante said as Valentina continued to whistle.

"You're incorrigible, aren't you? At least ease my mind by saying there are men in the guild too," Dante said playfully.

"Of course... men... they're just not in the personal squadron..." She replied... a bit suspiciously.

"Tsk," Dante bit his lip but continued the conversation.

"Is today the day my mana will awaken, Mom?" Dante said with an excited look.

"Yes, let's go," Valentina said, grabbing a coat from the chair and putting it on. A few seconds later, she took Dante by one of his hands and simply disappeared.
