Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

The Trident Marshal saw Thea treating such an important part of the history of Neptune as a wan entertainment story and he sighed.

"Just to be clear, this story is not official, it's what me and Aurora managed to learn from the time when we used to wander around the Seas, no one is really sure of what happened back when the hero of our Clear Water kingdom disappeared".

"Even my Malleus family which is the oldest in existence among the founding clans, doesn't have records until about one thousand years after the chaos age before the kingdom was stablished, as we were just starting by joining many dispersed members of our race to form a family".

"Aurora's family is the same, since she comes from one of two original factions that now conform the roots of the Elemental Sea, the Light Palace sect".

"After reading our respective records, what we managed to catch is that the hero and his lineage in other words the Black Armored Shark's lineage didn't belong to Neptune".

Daimon's eyes narrowed a bit, which made Vincent chuckle before continuing.

"The war between the four seas stagnated for dozens of thousands of years, without a winner nor a truce or nothing, no one knows why but we just kept killing each other, until one day each side got someone to guide them, we had our hero, the Light Palace sect got their saint, the Skelefiends had what they called an "envoy" from Snakele and the magic beasts…".

Before Vincent could finish their sentence, Thea interrupted him.

"The Maelstrom Sea supposedly was guided by someone with the lineage of a magic beast at the same level as the legendary dragons or unicorns, a Hydra, I used to hear that tale when I was younger, all those from snake races know about it".

Vincent listened to Thea's obviously dubitative voice and he shrugged.

"In our records a man with the ability to command all the races of snakes is mentioned, but I understand your concerns, Hydras are said to always be females so it is still a mystery what was that guy, all of them were said to not know each other before and first meeting in Neptune, that was deduced by some "poems" we found un Aurora's family records alluding to her ancestor's first meeting with the hero".

"Anyway, returning to what I can confirm, the hero came here with a sea emblem, half of one to be more accurate as it was incomplete, but it supposedly granted him the ability to order the magic beasts of the Mermen Sea, while the others also arrived with their respective emblems they didn't have an ability as they were incomplete so we had an advantage over the others, which ultimately ended to a "victory", the truth is that everyone had lost too much things, so at the end there was no winner, just four worn out forces".

"What made others deem us a the winners is that the envoy and the guy with the Hydra lineage were killed during the wat, but the hero and the saint survived, so we were expected to take possession of the other two seas… but then the hero disappeared without a trace, and the saint who was fighting the remaining enemies and expected his help, was deathly wounded in battle".

Daimon raised an eyebrow as he mumbled.

"In other words, you returned to your starting point?".

Vincent shook his head in response.

"Not completely, while officially there are no written records from that age, that is only certain for the noble families, the royal family does have a book from back then, as they were the ones who worked with the hero, and then were the ones who took over the responsibility of bringing order to the kingdom, but they weren't the only ones".

"The other extinct lineage of the founding families, also had some answers but with the death of their last known descendant, their knowledge was lost… until".

The old man gazed at Annete as if he wanted to confirm something with her, the queen didn't answer but instead took over the explanation.

"Until me and Mellie's mother was born, our mom was the daughter of a servant in our father's family, the Delphini family, she was always sick and had a fragile body, so of course she wasn't apt to be a servant, but she was really pretty and so our father, the next in line to be the clan's head took her in as her fiancé".

"One day when I was playing in my… that man's studio I found a book in his shelf, it was illegible and full of dust meaning no one had read it in a long time, so I took it but was unable to open it, my mother on the other hand was able to".

"Mother read some of the pages but didn't tell me what was in there, but, inside its pages there were two things", said the queen as she pointed at the necklace which she gave to Daimon and the pendant Mellie was always wearing.

"She gave me one and the other to Mellie, told us she loved us, returned the book and then sent us to sleep, the next morning she didn't wake up… she died in her sleep or so we were told".

Daimon could see the queen gritting her teeth as a cold light glowed in her aquamarine eyes, until the Trident Marshal patted her shoulder as he took the control of the narrative again.

"I was near the area and happened to visit the Delphini territory, so when I passed through the room where she died I had a strange feeling about it, my curiosity got the best of me and I sneaked a peek, imagine my surprise when an array appeared on the ceiling, before a letter came from within it, a letter sealed with a lineage seal".

"One was directed to me, how was she sure I was going to appear there it still beats me, the other was for little Annete and little Mellie, the contents of mine were pretty simple, I was to become their guardian from the shadows, they would publicly be recognized by me and my reputation will provide them with a safety layer".

"Though it was what the letter said, to be honest when I saw those two little girls, who lost the only family they had, this old man couldn't help but take them as my own nieces, especially little Mellie", said Vincent with a nostalgic expression on his face.

While Mellie pouted, the queen softly smiled before saying.

"Our letter said that I had to become the queen and that Mellie shouldn't leave the castle, until she was 19 year and 6 months old, also it told us to hold onto our necklaces, but I was supposed to give mine to someone who saved Mellie's life".

The more Daimon heard, the more he felt intrigued, he didn't know if all this was part of what was prepared for Adam or who prepared it for him, but he stole it so things wouldn't go as planned.

Not to mention Marcus also had an emblem, so he probably was left something here, from who knows who.

'Maybe those guys from the history, the ones who led the four seas were system users… not that doesn't make sense, the saint was in such a good relationship with the hero, so they couldn't have been both system users or things wouldn't have been so easy, the hero wouldn't have eliminated the others without paying a huge price first too'.

'But maybe one of the defeated guys had a descendant, his system could have been inherited, and that guy took revenge of the hero, that will also explain who has been moving the strings from the shadows', thought Daimon.

Sounds improbable indeed, but it's what Daimon could think off with the current information he had.

"So, the history is repeating itself with us here, is that what that promise thing is about?", asked Daimon.

The Trident Marshal nodded.

"More or less, it basically translates to "an event that will destroy half of Neptune, when the "darkness" comes to our world, and the "white" and "purple" reveal themselves, one will be our savior and the other one will be our enemy", that's why I thought you were bad news kid, you have black hair… and purple eyes, of course it gave me a bad feeling, but I also understand the promise is referring to emblems".

Daimon scratched the back of his head, he was sure he wasn't the one whatever that promise is, referred to, because he wasn't supposed to appear her, until he stole from Adam, also the white emblem was in Adam's hands, but they didn't discover a purple one.

"My vote is with the purple, Adam has the white emblem and while he is indeed a pain in the ass to deal with, I'm pretty sure he hasn't reached the level of being a threat to this planet in specific, at least not without a lot of help".

'Not to mention, he is supposed to do "hero things" and his missions are related to saving people to get what he wants from them', he mentally added.

"Also, none of us has a purple emblem, so my guess is that the guy with that emblem and the one who organized the pirates and Skelefiends to attack us is the same one".

Vincent's eyes glowed for a second, he has heard from Mellie that the pirates and Skelefiends, mentioned a "Lord" a lot, not to mention the queen took the pirates Daimon subdued to interrogation and they cooperated and started writing down everything they knew in exchange for a royal pardon from the queen and a small position of authority, where their pasts as pirates were irrelevant.

"It makes sense, that Blackbeard punk wouldn't work with anyone he doesn't consider above average, that sack of bones is the same, now the question is, who in the world is the one with the purple emblem".

Daimon turned to see the queen, they lacked more information and there was a chance to get something to fill in some holes in the history.

"Do you perhaps have access to that book?", he asked.

But the queen sighed as she shook her head.

"No, I went to that man's studio and opened it to see what was written on it, but it was just a regular geography study, even uncle Vincent inspected it in secret… my theory is that the royal family stole it", said Annete with a fierce expression which later changed to a cold one.

Vincent wanted to tell his niece to not mention that in front of the Valas Duchess and Daphne, but while the latter showed some sadness, the Duchess didn't seem to care, in fact she apparently was angry too.

"When mother died many agents from the royals were called by that man, by the time uncle arrived they had "inspected" everything, I never mentioned anything and they probably believe me and Mellie were too young, so even if our mother told us anything we wouldn't remember… they don't know that part of our "Analyzing Resonance", helps us never forget, because that part comes from our mother's lineage, and not the Delphini lineage which focuses in soundwaves".

'So they are both variants', thought Daimon as he looked the queen and the princess, more or less they had given form to their suspicions, and to be honest it was enough for a single day, he still hasn't had a good rest after being in constant battle, so he decided to wrap things up with a last question.

"One last question before we can go to rest, why can't a black Sea Emblem exist?", he asked.

Vincent saw the emblem in Daimon's hand and he sighed.

"Because their colors can't repeat, there is already a black Devil Emblem, or there used to be as it was destroyed when his bearer was killed in one of the three disastrous zones of the Maelstrom Sea, the Despair Whirlpool".

Daimon bitterly smiled, at the mention of that stupid place at which they arrived when they entered the second layer, that thing was strong enough to make his Apex Predator body feel pressured, though according to Evangeline the curse only affected him because of the huge gap in their strengths, and he was still able to ignore some of its effect thanks to his abnormal body and magic core, or they wouldn't have been able to escape alive.
