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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIE8VlWQIB
Stories we hardly conjure, leaves a narrative that is hidden deeper than the truth…
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolH9e70PKj
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?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcDeW5ngoM
Question is… Do they also seek human blood?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUnKvUejQc
“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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLaYW11axJ
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl7SkcNshs
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaZ1AEWAdX
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ871EWXp0b1
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxk6Ldb3qC
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ7amVxulg
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL3qoaV13V
“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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiQV4VSj5s
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpXCJrj6d5
“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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd0UMUKwsq
“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!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJLE9vJw1l
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYF7yvgCuua
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MvTpgWvwr
“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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKtYygZ31s
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7eUCwgbir
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf9VlQFs51
Alucard pressed his lips with a hasty response. “We can’t defy them, Sparda.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDZBEGFLt6
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeQWW9ef6O
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlebWCfkZB
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ443Ye4m9EN
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztFzWL7t1P
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu7lju8yWn
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQtf3JWPTY
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFyjWBFXNn
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIH4qgctH5
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bsntlvoW1
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMjgbJVdtx
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFVjglMvOG
“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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywmwm53kux
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDtpe4vNeA
Why follow the insistence of old men, right?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hfbysUlmg
“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?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wM0S0L4w5
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?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfcBKQ7TGi
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…”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDVL3egdaQ
“Don’t be foolish,” said Sparda. “Least we will die together as brothers, not enemies.”
