My Blood Legacy: Reincarnated as a Vampire
Chapter 18: I will be your Master

Dante's proficiency increased greatly with Morgana's help; she encouraged him with her mana along all paths, and Dante's veins strengthened with each session, thus drastically boosting his control level, even for a child.

Dante has now reached the age of eight. He was around 4.5 feet tall and his red hair already exuded a more regal air when people saw him; he already seemed like a noble vampire from a respectable family.

At this moment, Dante was about to begin training with his mother. The boy's body reached the initial peak level for Valentina's training to have a real effect. Dante's body composition differs from the noble vampires created by the Vampire King. As Dante descends from Caim, the purity in his blood has many benefits.

Valentina then analyzed her son's body using her energy and concluded that at eight years old, Dante's body was comparable to that of a fourteen-year-old adolescent.

It may seem like a lot, but compared to other direct descendants of Nightsphere races, Dante was among the top 5, only behind Elves, Werewolves, Demi-humans, and Giants.

"Son, today your training will begin. I will no longer be your mother until you become a worthy Warrior, understood? From now on, I will be your master!" Valentina said, and her whole demeanor changed. The gentle mother he knew disappeared, and in front of him stood Valentina Scarlet, the Scarlet Devourer.

Time stopped for a brief moment, and when Dante looked at Valentina, he took the sword at his waist and pointed it at her.

"Come, Master!" Did Dante's courage act as arrogance? No, far from it. Dante fully accepted reality and assumed the position he wanted, away from the shadow of the strongest woman.

When these words hit Valentina, Gungnir immediately appeared in her hand, and she launched herself toward Dante, bathing her sword with fire magic and managing to deflect the attack. Why did he succeed? Valentina limited her power to 1%.

Dante felt a chill when he realized that his mother was really fighting to kill—or at least he thought so. When he stopped to think, he received an attack and was sent flying.

"Focus." Valentina said, placing the spear on the ground, and a wave of fire headed towards Dante, who was still recovering.

He saw the fire wave coming and quickly reacted, summoning a spell [Flaming Barrier]. However, he used the Golden Flame instead of the other two. The golden flame was more effective in defense than in attack and was the best option for dealing with fire.

Dante thought the fire would stop, but unexpectedly, the Barrier was pierced by Gungnir. He tried to defend with his sword, but Valentina appeared behind him, holding the sword, and Gungnir, floating, aimed at Dante's midsection and threw him toward the spear.

The spear pierced Dante's belly and went through, leaving the golden spear completely red with his blood.

The wound was massive, but soon Dante was completely healed. In addition to a vampire's rapid regeneration, Morgana taught him to access the Hero's golden aura to speed up his metabolism and heal faster. He became almost indestructible as long as he had energy, but it was a pity that he was still too weak to abuse this resource.

"Good." Valentina smiled, and the second round was about to begin.
