In all mankind, the legend remains unshakable. What of that prices the life of many, frowned by the dirge of emphasis lying at the side.

A story so humbling, foreign to anyone, a tale struck to a dark knight that had morphed from its breeden.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2dHHbTYYi
Stories we hardly conjure, leaves a narrative that is hidden deeper than the truth…
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznZAZeLtQL
Sparda, the legendary dark knight hero and the prince of the night, son of Dracula… A friendship brought from the same goal, a story that contrasts the journey of both, who are they to begin with, and what are they in the demon world, the predatory underworld?
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lEs8vXd8n
Question is… Do they also seek human blood?
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfJZkUvzWK
“And they said I enjoy drinking human blood?” The man, the devil, his blonde hair shearing from the harsh wind of the demon world, prompted with the blow of gust that follows said in complaint to another man, no, another devil, leaning behind a withered tree, crossing his hand in a gentle yet arrogant manner. “Do they actually believe we vampires have such a tendency? That’s so absurd,” the man continued to complain while reading a book he had taken from the human world.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSWOWGl8Yp
The devil, with a violent purple coat sneered at the man, the complaining devil who was seated in front of him. “I believe it’s because you keep on uttering to suck them dry, Alucard, that’s why.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV71b0rmLw
Alucard followed Sparda’s remark with slight dissatisfaction as his expression frowned, closing the book in annoyance. “You know, that’s fathers fault, not mine,” he defended himself, sighing as he began inspecting the book again. “That was merely a gesture, I won’t actually do it,” he murmured to himself, goofing at the fact that humans think of him with such thoughts.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLxWYHlvVe
The devil, Sparda, gazes at him, his frown turning in a sly smirk. “You know what I heard,” he said, plumping his lips as he looked down. “Both Dracula, My father and Mundus were planning on corrupting the human world.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8TQO0m4C2
It took them a moment before Alucard realized what Sparda was trying to say to him, and he knew full well that look on Sparda’s face, the expression he was hiding under a nonchalant mannerism. A look of dissatisfaction and a look of disapprovement.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTof7AMfczK
Alucard had known Sparda since they were teens, small demons to be exact, born from unfortunate darkness evolving in their hearts followed by those who made them. Not once won’t he not recognize Sparda’s pride and honor.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0knBLv5gj
He was the only devil with such a thing, a devil with prosperity, honour and peace. He knew that Sparda disliked the idea of devils and demons, it’s chaos to control the human world, slaughtering and slandering, leading them to total annihilation.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CP1wMSule
“Hasn’t they been doing that for decades,” said Alucard as he looked, putting the book he was holding down on the ground. “We have seen the suffering of humans, and for over decades they’ve managed to suppress devils and demons.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZfIg8Aa79
Sparda looked at Alucard who’s gaze followed with a frown as he looked down on the ground, leaning in closely with his legs wide open and his arms resting on his thighs. “But they lost too much in this bloody war,” he said, keeping his arms crossed as he remained glazed over Alucard.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELB9ify3KR
“And so, what?” Alucard firmly said as he looked up to Sparda, his firm glare shifted with slight disapproving of how Sparda was sounding right now.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BGb6R5iRO
“You're not serious, right now, aren’t you?” The devil, Sparda retorted, uncrossing his arms as he looked at Alucard. “Bearing to watch innocence to suffer, killing beings out of their uncontrollable bloodlust!? Are you gonna turn a blind eye to it, Alucard!”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueilQ9faMR
Alucard began to feel and hear Sparda’s voice shaping loudly, his voice hoarse of disappointment and anger. This devil, even as the devil, shows that Sparda held humanity inside of him, Alucard knows that and he knows that.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrYeH4tku1
At which point did it make him madder? Was the fact that Sparda had taken a liking to the humans. Alucard stood up, his feet stumped on that cold ground, followed by a deafening silence as his gaze sharpened on Sparda’s accusation.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mOn1CD8Es
“We are breeden, what else do you think? We are made of their darkness incarnations, devils are…” He said gripping his knuckles until it turned white. “Beings of bloodlust,” he added but his voice toned down at the realization.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAiaYhoa9K
Sparda stepped close, grabbing his arms with a firm grip. “You know as much as I do that we are not fully evil,” said Sparda with a sharp look on Alucard.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5sjtPWost
The eyes of that devil, as soon as he saw Sparda’s determination, his expression was left scattered, where he was either confused or merely baffled. This war was indeed neither for good or bad, no it’s for humanity's survival that is not edging on its rift. The human world is bound to lose and they both knew it.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr4I0Cq6H9
Alucard pressed his lips with a hasty response. “We can’t defy them, Sparda.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk9zGoBK0R
Indeed, they can’t defy their father’s and mundus alone. However, it was not enough to break Sparda’s determination to end the war, and stop this madness… “Help me then, Alucard, let’s do this together as brothers.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPmsfAmZre
It’s as if the world was crumbling as Sparda said those words to him. Alucard was left speechless, but he knew as much as he wanted to deny that he too felt the exhaustion from this bloody war, and its foretold results.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwKfO4lukv
Alucard's eyes shifted and he grabbed Sparda’s hand, removing it from his arm and then he let him go as he looked at him. “Sparda, if you want to end this, we have to end what caused the war.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5kNtO2UNK
The flicker on Sparda’s eye sparked and an understanding had come to a conclusion. He raised his fist and retreated. “We will need to stop them,” he said, but soon paused as he realized stopping them was not easy. Behemoth and Dracula are Mundus's trusted partners in crime, they are powerful and beyond that was more than they can bargain to spare.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2XCGwPNsn
He glimmered at Alucard, with his sneering breath, putting her fist down slowly. “No, we have to eliminate them,” he confirmed, his voice filled with confidence and sternness. He knew what needed to be done, even if that meant killing their own breeden, their own bloodline.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwusdhfbkq
It was too much even for Alucard, he couldn't believe his suggestion for them to kill their own father. However, he also knew this was the only way, but that means… “We will rebel against the entire Demon World, against our fathers, against the army, and against Mundus,” said Alucard, stepping back a little as he began raising his hand and ran it on his hair.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEfyBjoS4Y
Yeah, if they will deal with their fathers, they’ll also have to deal with Mundus, the current ruler of this realm. To say the least, Sparda’s plan was already a suicide mission, turning their back against the army, as Mundus right hand and his shadow knight was almost as sacrificing themselves to the bloody river of Valhalla.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P81X42O6d
Thinking about it had made Alucard smirked a little, even by that second of mock smirk, it didn’t go unnoticed by Sparda. He returned Alucard's sassy smirk with a grim grin. “You know better than I, that you were sick of Mundus, you hated the devil, admit it.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXSMbfk4uV
Alucard shook his head chuckling and then he looked at Sparda with a gleam of amusement. “Wanting me to confess, heh? Coming from the devil who suggested to murder our fathers,” he retorted with amusement purred on his lips, but he didn’t deny that Sparda was right.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkXS70I4r1
Mundus was tyrannical and insane beyond that. He ruled this realm like a chopsticks needed to reform, he ruled this forsaken world, like plaything with ambitions and obsession to control the human world. As his Shadow Knight, Alucard had been dealing with his master’s bloody tendencies and stupid games of predation. If he could have killed Mundus before, he would have done it but reality is painful and harder than a mere imagination struck in his brain.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBTaN7UB1T
Alucard was force into the army by his father, Dracula, the Vampire King for such he had to endure this consistent monopoly of torture and killing for the sake of survivability.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1MEHBcpeD
“Do we have to darn follow the footsteps of old men, Alucard? I dare not,” asked Sparda, his voice almost mocking murmur as he asked and said those words.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9VdzMPgZD
He was right though, Sparda was right. Should they follow the same story as those old men? It was strange that a devil thinks like a human, but Devils are made from humanities sin as well. To be exact, Sparda was indeed right that they are their own person.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2GyRe51Tn
Why follow the insistence of old men, right?
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS44Hvdb8WX
“I admit, it was indeed foiled by them to try and straighten us up…” For a subdued moment, Alucard looked away, his eyes now frowning at the demon world’s bloody red skies. “We’ve witnessed decades of suffering, Sparda… However, are we ready to throw away our origin for what sake?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF2EkDk6Xr
Sparda moves a little, raising his fist and showing it to Alucard. “For what sake?” He asked, then Alucard turned down silently as he looked back at Sparda. “For the sake of humankind…” Sparda paused for a moment then he sneered. “Haven’t you gotten interested in them lately?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxB0GoKLYT
The devil, Alucard, smirked even more at Sparda’s bold anthem. Looking at his fist put up, he knew what Sparda was trying to do. He shook his head and held it before he surrendered his doubts and he began to touch Sparda’s fist with his fist. “You're gonna kill the both of us…”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuOzyp8eUP
“Don’t be foolish,” said Sparda. “Least we will die together as brothers, not enemies.”
