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

-----

"Then let's begin the last summon of the day… I'll check both of your stats after this." I said with a smile.

[Summon Spirit? You will randomly be given a Spirit based in the Souls of your Fallen Comrades.] [Available Spirit Slots: 1]

<Yes> <No>

"Yes."

FLAAASH!

The same sequence happened once more.

But something different… happened in the middle of it.

Instead of focusing into this dark realm with shapeless souls.

The ray of red light suddenly shoot up into somewhere else, far away.

I felt… the presence of someone whispering to me.

From far, far away.

This voice, which my previous life still treasured, and that as a result, I also did…

"Papa… Don't be sad…"

I suddenly heard that voice… I once recalled so many years ago.

Am I hallucinating?

There's no way this is real…

She was not a Vampire though, right?

So why…?

"Saphira?"

FLAAASH!

A bluish phantasmal light reached my soul, when I opened my eyes, not a red, but a blue-colored magic circle emerged, emanating a phantasmal presence from within.

The presence continued growing larger and larger, my eyes fixated into what I was seeing. I couldn't believe it myself.

A beautiful little girl with pale white skin, silver hair, and blue eyes greeted my sight, she floated in midair, translucent as I remembered her.

She looked to be not older than six years of age, a tiny little girl.

[You have summoned [Half Vampire Specter Girl: Saphira]!]

"I can't believe this…"

I dropped to my knees as I saw Saphira in front of me.

Eleanora didn't believed it either, as she dropped her plate of food, her eyes opening wide.

"Huh? Who's she?"

Hendrick never got to know her, Saphira died before we left our home planet, I only meet Hendrick several years later.

"Saphira…"

I tried to quickly wash my eyes with some water I made with magic, but the adorable ghost girl remained floating in there, innocently looking around, confused.

But then, her blue eyes shone brightly, as she recognized me, somehow. Even when I looked nothing like I used to look before…

"Papa!"

She flew to my side, her body quickly materializing at will, as she hugged me tightly with her tiny arms.

"Papa I missed you!"

Her beautiful blue eyes glistened like a pair of Sapphires, her name was given to her because of these two beautiful blue eyes of hers.

"Y-You recognize me?"

"Why wouldn't I recognize papa?"

"But I look… so different."

"Eh? But I would never forget the shape of papa's soul!"

"The shape of my soul… Saphira, it is really you."

Eleanora quickly walked to her side, hugging her tightly.

"Saphira! I never thought you would… I never thought you would ever appear again!"

"Mama!"

Saphira hugged back Eleanora.

"How… Just how?!" I asked. "I thought that I could only summon…!"

"Oohh… I don't know…" Saphira began thinking.

"I remember that when I passed away, I was welcomed by this fuzzy light… It helped me find peace. I watched over papa somewhere, I don't know where…" Saphira said. "Until then, this fuzzy light greeted other colorful lights. I don't know how many they were, but over ten! And then… they brought me here, very gently! They said… that papa was here, so of course I had to come!"

"Those lights…" I muttered in surprise. "The Holy Spirits did it?"

"Holy Spirits? Dunno… They never said their names!" Saphira said with a smile.

"This must be a gift from them… To think they can even bring her soul here, just for you." Eleanora sighed.

"Those bastards really want me to be indebted to them…" I sighed. "I guess when they saw through my memories, they learned about Saphira."

"Q-Quite possibly… But who was this light that welcomed her before?" Eleanora wondered.

"Most likely The One, or God, the father of Lucifer. It is said he welcomes the purest and most innocent souls inside of his Realm, Heaven. The Holy Spirits most likely came to pick her up, and The One agreed because… Saphira probably insisted." I sighed.

"I did! Big light was very nice with me, I had a good time. There were winged people there, many!" Saphira said.

"I see… S-She really was in heaven if she meet angels." Eleanora was left shocked.

"How cute, is she like your daughter?" Wondered Hendrick behind me.

"Ooh, tall man!" Saphira flew away from our arms, she converted into her Specter form, becoming ghost-like, and being able to pass through anything she wanted easily. "Hello!"

"Well hello there, little missy." Hendrick took off his hat to greet her.

"Bald head…" Saphira said while looking at Hendrick with pity.

"Hahaha, perhaps. But it is very convenient at the time of washing myself. Having hair is very annoying." Hendrick laughed.

"Papa and mama always washed my hair, but it got all tangled!" Saphira flew back to us.

This was really reality, Saphira… she was really back.

This wasn't a dream, or an illusion.

She was here with us, right here, right now.

Saphira was a special girl. I remember meeting her in the sewers, barely hanging on by herself. She was a special girl, a half-specter. Half-specters are people whose one parent was often human and the other a specter.

But what are specters? They were a race of people from my previous life. Non-corporeal beings that had many supernatural abilities. But the problem was… half-specters were unable to live until reaching maturity, their bodies would simply stop working.

They wouldn't be able to maintain themselves and they would perish. Specters need to absorb energy from the environment to sustain themselves, something they do naturally. But half-specters don't possess this ability and their physical bodies cannot consume enough food to compensate for the energy they need.

Saphira…

She had the power to see through walls. Thanks to her, we were able to learn many things and even learned a lot of secret plans from enemy organizations. Like this, our small guild was able to defeat many enemies, and thanks to that little girl… we also learned what love was.

She always called Eleanora and I "mama" and "papa"…
