Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

The five elders, resembling stationary and immobile human-shaped machines spoke at the same time, as if their voices and minds were connected into a single being. Yet I am fairly sure they were different people, this synchronization must be thanks to their new robotic abilities, perhaps.

"Genetically Engineered Pilot Blake Goathorn, today you've been called by the council of elders to be judged for your crimes."

"Yes, that's me, Elders."

I didn't lower my head and faced them while rising it, their mechanical eyes glowed red, they seemed slightly displeased.

"Begin the judgement."

"Pilor Blake, based in what we've judged…"

"You're perhaps one of the worst pilots that had been created so far."

"You have ranked the lowest in every simulator test."

"And you have also ranked the lowest ever in everything."

"You've been reported several times by other pilots because you escape from battles and don't even engage against the Xenoids."

Their eyes glowed green.

"Yet today, that changed abruptly. Your reflexes, techniques, and leadership skills were completely different and separate from anything you've showed to us before."

"Indeed. What has happened to you?"

"Not only did you learned how to fuse Neutonium Cores, an incredibly complex technique that only, currently, machines specifically made for that can do properly, but your new Neutonium Core Ability has been reported to possess abilities never seen before."

"How is this possible?"

"For someone destined to die, to suddenly begin walking the path of a king?"

"Any ideas, pilot Blake Goathorn?"

"Yes."

I nodded, facing them respectfully yet defiantly at the same time.

"I have noticed my changes as well, Elders, I am not a fool," I confessed. "The only thing I can say is that this is my true self, my true potential, and my abilities. This entire time, that was a failure you've been seeing. A Blake that was still maturing. I've awakened. And I am different now.

That's all."

"What…?"

"What kind of nonsense is that!"

"That's not a good response…"

"…"

"…"

They didn't like my response, but I wasn't going to give them any other response.

"I know why you brought me here," I said. "You fear that my powers are too strong, that my leadership is too effective. You believe I will disrupt the order of things. But rest assured, I will protect humanity and enforce order."

I smiled back at them.

"So, Elders, please trust me. I want to protect my fellow pilots, guide them, and protect humanity as well as you from the Xenoids, until we can finally and safely arrive at the Terraformed Planet."

I then lowered my head, vowing.

It was the perfect time, after showing them I wouldn't do it, to suddenly do it as I swore my loyalty.

So unfitting of me, but a trial is a trial, what needs to be done shall be done.

"Hm…"

"You're indeed, quite unique…"

"How surprising…"

"Do you truly mean it?"

"Hah…"

They were slightly pleased, their eyes glowed blue color now.

Their emotions fluctuate and the colors of their eyes change accordingly.

"Try as you may, that machine is mine, I've created a permanent link," I explained. "Even if you put a better pilot than me, he'll either die from brain damage or be unable to control it. Warrior Machines have strong personalities, mine is obsessed with me, you see."

"You've still committed crimes and you will pay for them."

"We'll run a test once the next raid happens."

"Although we recognize your latent talent, you're still someone unruly."

"We can't trust someone like you, that gaze… that is the gaze of someone that doesn't bend to anybody."

"You're sentenced to thirty years of prison for your transgressions. This court is over."

So that's how it's going to be.

They never cared from the beginning.

Fine.

That's fine by me.

"Come on, it's over."

Henriette glared at me, as I nodded.

The same room they put me before, I was thrown back in.

"Welcome back to your house! You'll be staying here for thirty years, get comfortable."

She smiled at me as the door closed.

There was nothing but white light, so annoying, impossible to sleep like this.

I stood there, waiting.

"If it's seven days… maybe tomorrow something might happen."

For now, I decided to finish whatever food was left, take a bath, then begin meditating.

Slowly, I channeled my energies, trying to get out more from the seal.

Yet it was very hard, very little was coming out.

However, what I had absorbed was right there, indeed.

The Electromagnetic Energies generated by the Neutonium Core, I had gathered them within me, fused with the Demonic Energy.

I've been saving them, storing them within me.

"Let's try something funny."

I gathered them into my chest and concentrated them, until the two energies melded, and began to crystalize.

FLASH!

"Good."

It was faster than I imagined, a small crystal core was formed.

A Demonic Neutonium Core.

Inside a person this time, not a machine!

Something thought to be impossible in this era.

After all, Neutonium, upon making direct contact with living matter, corrodes it and destroys it.

Its one of the reasons why the energy produced from it can hurt Xenoids even when they're incredibly tough.

Yet my body wasn't normal, after all, it's the same body I cultivated at the end.

Even without skills or any energies, the physical prowess I cultivated, remains to an extent, it couldn't be completely sealed.

"Now let's do this as planned…"

I had a plan, using my new core, I harnessed its energies, and channeled them into my neurons.

Then, through my connection with my Warrior Machine, I created a psychic tunnel for my consciousness.

Suddenly, my vision divided, as I could see through the machine, although faintly.

There, a new pilot, a blonde man with a cocky smile, was already entering it.

"So this is the mech with the powerful ability you took from that jobber?" he laughed. "Nice! Let me try it then!"

Immediately as he started trying to connect…

CRASH!

"Uuuaaagghh!"

The machine's cables hit his head and sent him flying away.

The man fell, hitting his head over the metal floor, and dislocating his neck.

"W-What happened?!"

"Shit! Bring him to the hospital, quickly!"

"That machine…"

The other pilots wanting to give my machine a try now stepped back.

They were hesitating.

Of course, what I said about personalities wasn't right, I was lying.

So.

I will simply make that lie the truth.

I'll make these bastards desperately need me more than anything.

They will not be able to live without me, their last and only hope.

"Uagh!"

"Dammit!"

"What's wrong with this machine?!"

Test after test, all pilots were thrown away.

Henriette was watching in disbelief.

"H-He wasn't wrong…?"

The tests continued but were cancelled after the next day.

Alarms were ringing loudly.

[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!]

[Sudden Xenoid Raid in Progress! Sudden Xenoid Raid in Progress!]

[All Pilots please ride your Machine Warriors and prepare for battle.]

[Estimated Time Until Imminent Battle: 93 Seconds]

Ten seconds passed.

FLASH!

Suddenly, the door opened in front of me.

Henriette came looking for me.

"Missed me? I've been gone for just a night."

I greeted her while sitting on the floor, cross-legged, with a serene expression.

"You bastard… Get on the robot and fight!"

I stood up, glancing into her silver eyes.

And I whispered into her ears as I passed by her side.

"Yes ma'am."

She was left trembling out of frustration, gritting her teeth.

"D-Dammit!"
