When Akasha and the two ladies appeared, they were in his living room. Elara was a bit confused at first but decided to not say much and observe. Akasha put away his grapes then lightly stretched before turning to face the ladies.
Facing the two Akasha was internally pleased at how things were coming together so quickly. He smiled at them then looked at Elara. Even though he planned to rope her in eventually he needed to see her motives first.
"Elara." He said in calm voice "What made you decide to tag along with us?
Hearing this Elara just spoke truthfully. Not because she was scared or anything, but because she herself didn't know the reason for her feelings.
"Well, to be honest I'm not sure. Ever since I first saw you, I felt the strange sense of closeness. It was a weird feeling but it's like my very existence is begging me to be close to you. I decided to trust this feeling and see where it would lead." She said rather straightforwardly, not attempting to conceal anything.
"Hmm?" Akasha began to ponder a bit before just saying 'It's probably some Dragon bullshit' while internally shrugging his shoulders.
"Well, okay, but before we continue, I must let you both know a couple things. Firstly, I am not looking for some loose friendship that's built upon fragile truths or dishonesty. I'm looking for companions who I can trust and depend on no matter what. Secondly, I have many secrets and even many more things that even I don't understand about myself yet. In time I will reveal everything to you because truthfully, I don't even know where to begin to look for answers myself. Lastly, I'm not looking for us to be some married couple instantly, I mean, we will have an eternity together so I'm sure we can naturally build those feelings for each other." He said this all at once not to just Elara, but to Raven also.
Hearing the words coming from him the two girls smiled.
"That's fine with me as long as you cherish me and don't treat me like some fragile princess, then I'm fine." Raven said
"I agree with Raven, as long as you don't restrict me then we are good." Elara added.
Akasha flashed a smile at the two ladies before speaking again
"Good, now we will create bond together. This bond will link our souls together; this will bring us many benefits. You will both gain a random affinity of mine, and your talent will also increase by an entire grade."
"WHAT?!!" Both the ladies exclaimed at the nonsense Akasha was saying, but before they could respond properly, he said something equally outrageous.
"But before we do that, I will take you two to a place that will help your bloodline evolve by a grade too."
"WHAT?!!!" again, the girls felt as if Akasha was joking with them
"T-that's impossible" Raven muttered after she finally gained her composure.
Elara nodded her head while saying "E-exactly if it were that easy, then everyone would be powerhouses."
"Hahaha, well, you're not wrong. But like I said I have many secrets. Now let's go!" Akasha said while laughing before he transported them all into his dimension.
-----
The Sanctuary
Akasha appeared in his personal realm alongside Raven and Elara. The transportation was seamlessly, and the two girls didn't feel any outrageous side effects. When they arrived in The Sanctuary the two were stunned by its beauty. For as far as they could see they saw a boundless field full of beautiful flowers. The surroundings left them even more stunned seeing the beautiful cosmos, it felt as the domain of some divine existence.
"A-Akasha w-where are we?" Raven asked as she was absolutely in love with the view. Even someone who loved blood as much as her couldn't shake the feeling of absolute peace here.
Elara didn't even speak she stood in silence just amazed at what she was seeing. The feeling of being so close to space is something one could only dream of.
"Well, this is home, my personal realm. He said while smiling then he turned towards the two girls.
"We should get started now, but before we do that there's someone, I want you guys to meet." He said before calling for Luna internally.
'Luna come meet your sisters~' he said slightly teasing her.
After he said that Luna didn't even reply she just magically appeared beside him while holding his arm. When the two girls noticed her the saw the most beautiful woman, they ever laid eyes on. She had pure white hair and eyes that matched. She looked simply
"B-BEAUTIFUL!!! SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL!" Elara said what the both of them were thinking.
[Hehe, nice to meet you two, my name is Luna. I am Akasha's first lover.] Luna said while smiling at the two young ladies.
"I-I am R-Raven." Raven muttered. She was absolutely stunned by Luna's appearance.
"E-Elara" Elara was no better but before they got lost in Luna's beauty Akasha snapped them out of their little trance.
"HAHAHA, my dear Luna is beautiful, isn't she?" He said while lightly pinching her waist.
"Okay now let's start your evolution. You must brace yourself because the process is painful. It will last about 10 minutes so try to hang on." He told the two ladies but before he could continue Luna spoke.
[Yea, but the information he gave you two earlier was partially incorrect. Since you are both his lovers you will receive more benefits. Your talents will increase two times instead of once and the evolution you are about to go through is far from simple. This evolution will push you to perfection, each time Akasha upgrades this dimension you will be able to go through an evolution. This will upgrade you much more than your bloodline, you will be constantly evolving to the point of having no weaknesses.] She stated to the two girls. She felt like they needed to be informed properly before having their entire existence altered.
Hearing this the two girls slowly exhaled and steeled their resolve. After seeing just, a fraction of what Akasha could offer they understood that he was in league of his own. If they truly wanted to be his companions, then they needed power.
And what's power without pain?
Thinking this they both nodded
"Haha good, I knew I made the right choice with you two" Akasha said while laughing before beginning their evolution.
"Okay now we will begin, remember it will be painful." He warned
"NOW BEGIN" As he said this the girls were instantly engulfed in thick white lights. The light was so thick that even Akasha could see through with his current power.
But the girls?
"AHHHHHHH!!!!! FUCKKK!!!!!" Raven yelled as she felt like she was currently being tortured.
*ROARRRRRR*
From Elara one could he a roar that was anything but human. She shifted back to her original form the moment she was engulfed in the white light.
While they waited for the two girls to finish Akasha and Luna were having a small chat.
"So should I link with them now or wait?" He asked
[Honestly, it doesn't matter because you will only get the vampire bloodline from Raven. Once you receive her bloodline it will automatically upgrade to the origin.] Luna replied as she was still clinging to Akasha's side.
"I might as well do it now then." He said before creating a link between himself and the two ladies. \
*Ding*
[You have received a new bloodline - Vampire of Origin]
[You have received new affinities - Thunder, Blood, Ruination]
[You have received innate abilities - Eye of Ruin, Sovereign of Blood]
After seeing these notification Luna gave him some space so he could prepare for his evolution too.
Then
"FUCKKKK!!!!" Akasha roared as he still couldn't get used to this bullshit.
While these three were undergoing evolutions the other students weren't sitting idle either. Especially those place inside of the top 10.
