Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Daimon did as she told and turned on the furnace, luckily this magic device worked with fire mana stones and magic formations instead of the user's mana and he would only need to regulate the temperature of the furnace to not burn the metal.

The Silverheart family had the rare elemental affinity "Metal", unlike earth magicians they were able to manipulate all kinds of minerals and metals that existed so it was normal for Aisha who was the former young lady of the Silverheart family to have some blacksmith experience.

While Daimon supervised the furnace, he also saw his mother using the earth magic "terraforming" a low rank spell which allowed one to manipulate small quantities of earth, with it she started transform the cave into something more like a room.

All the living creatures had different elemental affinities, luckily to use non offensive spells you didn't need to have the corresponding affinity and on top of that Aisha's metal affinity had some relation to the earth element so it didn't take her too much time to finish.

She used the spell to remove the irregularities in the floor and the rock formations on the ceiling and walls, then created a partition from the main space and dug a small well next to it, Aisha checked if the ingots already melted, she handed Daimon the bottle of poison and told him to spill some of it on the area surrounding the cave.

Once Daimon was outside, she used the spell "Metal bending" to cover the floor and the ceiling with the metal before forcing it to cool down, while she thought "who would have thought that I who used to be an archmage would need to melt the metal before manipulating it because of mana lack… sigh".

If it was yesterday, she would have been able to coat the cave internal space with just a movement of her hand but now she has returned to be a one-star mage, and not only that but she didn't have too much mana left in her core because she hasn't cultivated since she was revived.

"Cheer up Aisha, you were given a second chance to start over again and… that boy needs you", remembering the relieved expression on Daimon's face when she hugged him back, a smile that could light even the darkest place flourished on her beautiful face before saying.

"It's done darling you can come back", Daimon entered and he was marveled at the sight of the room but he didn't understand why his mother took all this trouble for a temporal shelter.

"I did what you asked me to but… why did you coated the floor and the ceiling with metal?".

"To stabilize the structure of the cave and I returned to be a one-star mage so large creation magic is tiring for me now so in case there is an emergency I can use the metal on the floor or the ceiling to protect us" she answered but internally added "and I can't stand getting all dirty due to a floor made out of earth".

All her life Aisha lived as a noble and although she wasn't haughty nor arrogant there were some things she couldn't stand and dust was one of them, Daimon saw the separated room where there was the well or it might be more accurate to call it a water tank since its surface got coated in metal to avoid the water to mix with dirt.

It was getting cloudy again so it will probably rain any time soon and it was also getting darker, Aisha used "terraforming" to build a little step at the entrance to avoid the rain to enter the cave before taking out a couple of lamps that were powered by light magic stones and pacing them at various points of the room to illuminate the whole place.

She nodded and for the final touch used the spell one last time to turn the entrance into a vertical crack about two meters high but only about 3-4 centimeters wide to allow the air to flow inside the cave.

Daimon noticed his mother was tired and he felt guilty, "I need to start cultivating with my magic core…" he remembered how he was unable to do anything when the manticore attacked them and he clenched his teeth "I don't want to go through that again" he thought", he looked at Aisha's eyes directly and spoke.

"Mom, I want to start training, I will become strong enough to fight side to side with you… strong enough so that I will never have to see you suffering for my sake again".

Aisha couldn't help but be surprised to see the flames of determination burning like the sun in Daimon's eyes, she felt really proud of him, after all if you are weak, you can always train and become strong but none of that matters if you don't have the courage to face adversity.

She smiled while nodding, "that's good my darling, be sure to never forget that burning desire to become stronger, I will give my all to help you too ♥".

"Leaving that aside let's go take a bath… it has been quite a long day", she said.

Daimon was agreed, although his physique was way better now, he was exhausted all he had experienced in just one day, he took off his clothes which were worn out and stained with blood while Aisha did the same, luckily, she had a few sets of clothes for her and Daimon in her ring.

Once they were naked Aisha used a spell called "nerou" which created water using the humidity in the air to fill the water tank and the bathtub she created beforehand using earth and coating it with metal.

They both entered the bathtub and Aisha caressed Daimon's hair while she remembered how she had been taking care of him since he was a baby, "who would have thought that being forced to marry that piece of trash was what allowed me to be happy".

Although the Naktis were the strongest force of the Immortal faction formed by all the vampire race they weren't the only main noble family that existed, there were another two which practically had the same level of authority, one of them was the Silverheart family and the other one was the Nosfear family, each of them had other lesser families or family branches that were under their management.

One hundred years ago using the excuse of "creating a better future for their race" the Naktis proposed a marriage between their young successors, both the Silverheart and the Nosfear families had female successors so the question was who would marry Victor Naktis, unfortunately both Aisha and the Nosfear young lady hated Victor's guts since he was known for being… a playboy, so they rejected him.

But things weren't as easy as that, the Naktis offered a really tempting wedding gift, a spirit herb called "Blood Lily", the Nosfear were a matriarchal family and the matriarch of course despised the Naktis for doing such a low move but… the Silverheart patriarch on the other hand was blinded by greed and although Aisha was his only daughter, he still had his young son and so he decided to marry her daughter off to the Naktis.

Even then Aisha never accepted Victor as her partner so she never allowed him to touch her nor drink her blood (for vampire females, the act of willingly offering their blood to a male vampire was a wedding ritual) and because of that she was never acknowledged as Victor's wife, but that didn't matter for the elders of the Naktis family.

Their objective was to form a bond with one of the other noble families which was achieved thanks to the Silverheart patriarch accepting the Blood Lily from them, but that was not the end of the trouble for Aisha, as time passed Victor started lusting after her and this time around the reason was to "create a future leader for the vampire race".

Since the Silverheart had metal affinity they weren't vulnerable against high purity magic silver also known as "mithril" and the Naktis had darkness affinity, they were high vampires (day walkers) and so the sun didn't harm them on any way already so the combination of all that should have resulted in the best vampire that has ever existed, of course Aisha utterly refused "I would rather die than letting you touch me" she said to Victor in front of the Naktis family elders.

And thus, they decided to have a duel, the elders only wanted the result of the mixture between both lineages and sex was not needed for that, in fact vampires could use their blood essence, an especial type of blood that resided in their hearts and was only produced with the pass of the years, to reproduce, if Victor were to win the duel, he would be allowed to do whatever he wanted but if Aisha won the duel, then they would use the blood essence method to conceive.

Needless to say, but Victor lost, although their magic cultivation was on the same level, Aisha's battle prowess was higher because she trained her whole life while Victor dedicated to debauchery, since Aisha won the duel, she personally ripped a hole in Victor's chest to take some of his blood essence and absorbed it while mixing it with hers to create a new life.

But this method also had some other disadvantages, losing blood essence caused inner damage to a vampire body and if the loss was big enough it even shortened their lifespan causing death on the worst-case scenario, Aisha being the mother needed to use almost double the amount that Victor used, the result was that her cultivation stagnated and that was also the reason as to why Daimon resembled his mother that much having the same eye and hair color as her without any of the visible characteristics of the Naktis.

After that Aisha practically severed any relation she had both with her family and with the Naktis, Victor already had other women and some of them actually were bearing his children so after being humiliated he declared one of them as his wife and forgot about Aisha's existence, until Daimon was born.
