Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

It was the first time that a descendant was born out of two main families and the Naktis elders were shameless enough to organize a celebration ceremony to commemorate this “historical moment”, although Aisha hated those two-faced old farts, as the time passed Daimon was taught noble’s etiquette and basic knowledge about the world, all his teachers agreed that he was an excellent student and so expectations for him kept growing day by day.

Although Aisha hated the Naktis she had to admit that they at least didn’t made things hard for her son until the talent evaluation day came and everything went to hell, Victor never approved this “son” of him as he was a sign of his disgrace and so when the elders practically discarded him as a successor candidate then… he decided to get rid of him.

His error was that since he never bothered to learn anything about Daimon and Aisha’s daily life, he had no way to know that Aisha always slept with her son, so when he tried to sneak in the room and “eliminate” the sign of his humiliation with his own hands Aisha was there to stop him.

Although Aisha couldn’t progress in her cultivation on the last 6 years she was still on par with Victor and their fight dragged on until the elders were alarmed and hurried to the place, needless to say but they sided with Victor and since Aisha wasn’t going to let them do as they wished she fought against many of them while protecting Daimon, she actually could have escaped the castle if not for the supreme elder of the Naktis family (Victor’s father) blocking her way which resulted in her using the forbidden spell “Space rupture” to flee.

Aisha shook her head “it’s all in the past” she thought, once they finished taking a bath and drying off, she helped her son dress again and they both laid down in the improvised bed before falling asleep, the weather was quite cold and it was also raining outside but they were too tired and feeling each other warmness was enough for them to enter the land of dreams.

As the night went on Aisha had a weird dream in which she was alone in a dark space, at first, she was enjoying the feeling of resting, until an unease sensation rose in her heart as if she was being observed and her supposition turned to be true.

“grrrhahzzz”, the surrounding area became colder and screeches started sounding at different distances… countless bloodshot eyes appeared in the darkness and all of them directly gazed at her, one would have normally been shaken but Aisha smiled as if she wasn’t affected by the eerie atmosphere of this place,

“Humph even if I’m weaker now, don’t underestimate a former Archmage!!!”, she raised her hand and shouted.

“Myalo”.

A silver light surrounded her body and the darkness that was trying to engulf her a moment ago shattered, which allowed her to open her eyes in the real world, her breathing was a bit erratic and she was drenched in cold sweat, it took her a moment to fully regain control of her body, feeling the movements next to him Daimon also woke up but when he noticed his mother’s state, he immediately turned on the lamps.

“Mom, what happened… do you feel sick or something?”, Daimon was worried that her new life was temporary or something like that.

“Evangeline, what is happening you told me there won’t be any side effects!!!?”

… A moment later Evangeline’s sleepy voice sounded in his mind.

*Yawwnnn* “can you shut up, I was having such a good rest… besides this has nothing to do with her reviving, mmm she was targeted by some kind of creature that attacks through dreams or something along the lines”.

Daimon was half convinced by her explanation.

“But then why did it not happen to me, I’m for sure weaker than mom?”.

“Well, this type of creatures doesn’t care about strength, they feel attracted by those whose minds are in a fragile state and your mother hasn’t fully recovered… just make sure she rests, those things won’t target you since you have darkness affinity so just keep her even closer to your body, enjoy it hehehe”.

Daimon felt a headache coming at him… “forget it I don’t have the energy to discuss with you”, he held his mother’s hand and helped her lay down in the bed again, Aisha finally reacted when she felt her son accommodating her on the bed.

“Did I wake you up darling? Don’t worry I just had a weird dream that’s al….”, Daimon interrupted her midway.

“Mom, I know you were attacked by something… you can rely on me sometimes, ok?”.

Aisha sighed “this kid surely has changed… but I like seeing him being so confident on himself”, she thought.

“I’m sorry… I didn’t want to worry you, those were nightmare dwellers a type of creature that doesn’t have a physical body, they attack people through their dreams, normally they prey on little children but seems like mommy is too mentally exhausted…”.

“Let me recover a bit and I will cast a protective spell”, Daimon shook his head.

“No, you are not in the state to be using any magic, your mind is too exhausted… I have a way to protect us both from those things”, he first laid down next to her before hugging her tight.

Aisha felt her son warmness and it was so comfortable she felt her eyes closing by themselves, even as she was speaking the nightmare dwellers were trying to enter her mind but all that stopped when Daimon embraced her.

“Darling…?”.

Daimon cleared his throat before explaining “my affinity with darkness keeps those low rank things away, I just need to be close enough to you to share this protection with you… let’s go to sleep we can discuss everything on the morning”.

Aisha smiled and gladly accepted the hug.

“Well, I don’t mind my darling being close to me ♥”, they both closed their eyes and fell asleep

The rest of the night calmly passed without any incidents, Aisha woke up a few hours later feeling relaxed and well rested, these past years she didn’t have a night on where she could completely rest because she was afraid of the Naktis doing something to her son, but now none of that mattered anymore.

She stretched her body which woke Daimon up jut to catch a glimpse of her elegant yet lovely figure.

…”Good morning mom, did you sleep better?”, Aisha smiled back at him before answering.

“Of course, my darling was standing on guard for me after all ♥”.

Daimon felt happy that it worked, luckily since they had the shelter and there was no need for his mother to use magic, she could rest for a couple of days just to make sure she wouldn’t damage her magic core.

*Ding*

[A New skill has been unlocked due to a specific action]

“Huh?”, seeing the notification from the system Daimon opened the skill tree to check what was going on.

[Anti-monster Arts]

[Elemental series: Low darkness camouflage (allow the user to cover his body and people surrounding him in a thin layer of darkness to prevent darkness nature creatures to notice them)]

“Well, that is convenient I guess”.

While Daimon was reading the skill description, Aisha stood up from the bed washed her face before approaching the entrance of the cave just to see that it was still raining,

“Stupid weather, where did we land?”, she said.

Daimon remembered something from when he was fighting the manticore.

“Speaking of that, I don’t know if it helps to find out where we are but I saw three moons instead of one the past night”.

Aisha seemed to contemplate things for a moment before answering.

“If that was the case then we probably are in the White Fang galaxy that is occupied by the Beast faction… and this planet should be Lykos”.
