Drake landed heavily on the ground and if it were any other person, he or she would be dead but because of Drake's training and the abilities and potential he possesses as a now special umbra hunter he wasn't hurt or killed.

"Who is this goddamn crazy driver?"

Drake who earlier couldn't tell how he was feeling fully attested fully that it was anger and it had now been infuriated after being run down the moment he left the used to-be Wayland's Mansion.

In the midst of Drake's angry remarks and curse, a thin little voice cried out "why don't you fucking look right, left and then right before crossing?"

In a jiffy, a beautiful young lady alighted from the black Ferrari. She was wearing a blue half-length dress and killer heels which made her seductive. Nevertheless, she was staring angrily at Drake who was still lying down pretentiously.

Furrowing his eye brows Drake decided to lie down rather than stand up but in the next moment he was up unharmed. The little bruises he received had all cleared up. He had the ability to heal himself in a very short time if he activated his healing rune wit his stele.

"Which of us do you think is blind? Don't you have breaks? Obviously, you knocked into me and Instead of feeling compunction you're running your mouth which doesn't match with your pretty face. " Drake retorted.

" What gives you the effrontery to shout at me? "

While glaring at Drake the lady suddenly raised her legs to kick at Drake but she was too slow that Drake easily dodged it.

Considering she was wearing stilettos, her heels were equivalent of a sharp dagger and if she were to plunge one at Drake, he would definitely cause a stab wound.

Just then an old man climbed down from the right side of the black Mercedes benz. He was surrounded by an air of authority and influence and most likely important. However his face was pale and his breathing was very rapid. He exuded the nobility of a king and his past life he exuded a dark aura, but he was now willing to change for good.

After shouting at the lady to stop. He held onto the car for support as he desperately was trying to catch his breathe.

"Dad, why did you come down?" The young lady rushed to assist his old man.

"Let's not waste our judicious time, let's rush to the hospital asap" the middle aged man panted to which the young lady nodded.

Upon returning to Drake, he scrutinized him and just deduced he was from Earth-2 of Delta city. She wondered where all the bruises must have gone. But she didn't ask,she dipped hands into her pulse and brought out a stack of cash of which he threw almost all to him. But instead of taking the cash he just smiled weirdly.

Her father was obviously sick and was in need of urgent medical attention and that if care is not taken,the old man would die.

"Mundanes indeed" he chuckled to himself and wondering why he has not meant any Downworlder yet. Obviously,vampires don't work on daylight except the Daylighters which were rare.

He stood in silence and watched the man cough out like thrice as the lady helped her father get back into the car and proceed with rushing to the hospital.

Then Drake broke the unfolding event.

"Your father's condition is dire due to his sino atrial node that got severed and in less than two minutes he will suffer from a breathing difficulty and suffocate to death. Can you make it to the hospital in just two minutes? Drake asked the young lady calmly.

"You're bluffing... Dad let's -"

"Samantha!!" The old man snapped at her before taking three steps towards Drake wearing an astonished look, he questioned.

"My dear, How do you know about my ailment?" The man;Darwin had always kept this illness to himself,not even a single doctor in the city had been able to diagnose it. Thus,he was wondering how this young dude did it by just mere scrutinizing him.

"You wouldn't understand even if I try explaining it to you, and I have no time to waste with the both of you, I have a very important task to accomplish" Drake replied and turned to leave but then he was stopped by the old man who went down on his kneels, he was so desperate to live few more years.

"Please save me....." The old man cried and pleaded . By this time he had just one minute before he finally kicks the bucket. No one would expect the almighty,wealthy, powerful and influential man to kneel down to beg a seemingly ordinary guy.

Drake still had humanity within him and as such felt pity for him and moved his fingers through the man's stylostixis and exhaled an invisible breathe into the man's nostril which nobody noticed.

He didn't let the fact that the old man's daughter was rude to him before that moment. He chose not to pay evil with evil. Afterall,he was not the type that goes from places to places healing anyone sick.

His movement were so swift and fast that nobody had the time to stop him.

The old man colour was Gradually returning and his breathe was getting stabilized.

"I have only stopped you for dying for now, if proper treatment are not made in two days time, you'll eventually die" said Drake as he turned to leave.

Samantha who had just witnessed the miracles that had just happened and astounded of the glow returning to his father's cheek and improvement in his condition stopped him and gave him his dad's invitation card.

"Maybe he could come around and treat my Dad. All the medical doctors in Delta city are afterall fed up with his condition."

She didn't really like him, plus he was obviously from Earth-2 and can't have possibly went to the medical school. So, how does he have this kind of medicinal skills? She asked herself.

"Your dad is the CEO of Darwin's Collection?" Drake asked as he stared at the card he had just accepted, he initially didn't want to accept it but when he caught the glimpse of the Jagaba regiment symbol , he quickly took it.

Darwin owned the jagaban regiment out of the seven regiment in the cities, Delta city inclusive. They are subsect regiment.

Samantha nodded,which obviously conveyed the word "Yes".

"Thank you young man for saving my life,I really can't thank you enough." The old man grabbed Drake's hand and expressed his gratitude continuously.

"Please ensure to honour the invitation I'd really love to dine with you." The old man said forgetting his status. He had never been seen dining with ordinary or commoners. Only those who walked on the corridor of wealth and power had the privilege and the honour of dining with him as one of the richest in Delta city.

"Also,don't forget to visit the barbing salon before coming,you stink ." Samantha added. Of a truth,she didn't like Drake from his looks but she had no choice,she had to keep her dad safe.

And after Drake acknowledge the invitation he hurried to Earth-2. All through his stay at the Shinigami island, Delta city had been booming. On his way he saw numerous bar and nightclubs. The city was bustling with people.

Right then Drake spotted a familiar figure when he walked pass a hotel dumort. It was young adult dressed in fine clothes. About eighteen of age. She was walking into the hotel with few other girls of her age.

"Isn't that Clara?....... My sister?"

    "I have seen that-" Clara spoke pointing at the stele, Vick hide under his belt."Where?" Catherine and Vick asked simultaneously."Drake used it to- wait, I remember now, I remember the symbol of the overlapping circles with a cross in between now, Drake had used it to draw the symbol on the wall". Clara got up immediately with her memory fragments returning."Only an umbra hunter can use the stele? Even those with womanland ancestral blood can't use it, it'd burn through them like a very corrosive acid... " Vick said almost jokingly." I'm serious-..." Clara affirmed , Catherine looking in disbelief."We'll find out soon enough... Do you have anything that belongs to him? I can use the umbra tracking technique to track him down and these puzzle will get solved. I just need anything that has his scent." said Vick.A moment of silence dawned on the room, Clara had nothing of Drake on her and neither did - " I have something, this wrist pendant, Drake made it for me five years ago.

    The smoke surged forward, forming and re-forming itself. A tendril took the shape of a human hand and stroked the edge of the burning pentagram that contained it. Then, with a surge, the smoke seethed past the edge of the star, poured over the border like a wave breaching a levee. The flames guttered and died as Otumba on the other hand started vibrating like he was feeling a sensation, screaming. The Genie stumbled backward. He was chanting now, in rapid Chthonian, spells of containment and ritual continuation. Then something happened; the black smoke-mass came on inexorably, and now it was starting to have something of a shape—a malformed, enormous, hideous shape, its glowing eyes altering, rounding to the size of saucers, spilling a dreadful light.It surged forward and coiled around Drake who had converted from cryptic visuals to intelligible language."An Angel-Nephalem blood?!" The smoke spoke out soaring up, back ward as he snuffed out the blood that ran through the young boys

    Afternoon light woke Samantha up, a beam of pale brightness that laid itself directly over her face, lighting the insides of her eyelids to hot pink. She stirred restlessly and warily opened her eyes. The fever was gone, and so was the sense that her bones were melting and breaking inside her as a result of Drake not returning last night. She sat up and glanced around with curious eyes. She was in her room—white-painted, the bed covered with a brightly woven rag blanket. Lace curtains were drawn back over round windows, letting in circles of light. She sat up slowly, waiting for dizziness to wash over her. Nothing happened. She felt entirely healthy, even well rested. She went to one of the circular windows and peered out. This side of the house faced away from the canal, onto a narrow side garden turning brown and gold with autumn. A trellis crawled up the side of the house; a single last rose hung on it, drooping browning petals.The doorknob rattled, a young woman entered, hol

    Nausea and pain came and went in ever-tightening whirlpools. Clara could see only a blur of colors around her: she was conscious that the figure he trailed; Vick was carrying her, every one of his steps slamming into her skull like an ice pick. She was aware that she was clinging to him and the strength of his arms a comfort. Very distantly, she knew that she was gasping for breath, and she heard Vick say her name.Then everything went silent. For a moment she thought that was the end of it: she had died, died battling demons she thought never existed, the way she did, she never thought she coul and a surge of what felt like ice spilling through her veins. She squeezed her eyes shut against the pain, but the cold of whatever Vick had done to her was like having a glass of water dashed in her face. Slowly, the world ceased its spinning, the whirlpools of nausea and pain lessening until they were only ripples in the tide of her blood. She could breathe again.With a gasp, she opened her
