In the morning, Jack came to the tavern and found Sidney and Ephiltes were already waiting. The tavern was closed so they stood outside. The two didn't give Jack any friendly greetings so Jack also wasn't courteous. He gave them a silent gesture to follow him. The two trailed behind Jack. Jonathan and Harper walked between Jack and the two in case the two tried anything funny. They arrived in front of the Count's mansion soon. Much earlier than the time limit the hooded stranger asked for. The stranger only said before noon, so Jack assumed the earlier it was, the better. Jack knocked on the door, which was soon opened. It was no longer the butler this time. It was an old maid. The maid studied the group. Jack was just about to introduce himself when the old maid said, "Come, young master is expecting you." So, the hooded stranger is truly the Count's son, or at least its pretender. Jack knew Aubelard brought no relative when he fled Sangrod. The maid took the group to a large study room. A lean man with long black hair and extravagant clothing was standing overlooking a large window. Jack felt like he was seeing Horatio's back again the first time he met that Vampire prince, except this one had black hair instead of silver. The long-haired man turned around, revealing a face that was different from Horatio, but the same youthful look. Jack thought his face was very handsome despite the paleness of his skin, but there was an aura of sadness from his expression. Jack used Inspect on him. Arlcard Maxius (Special Elite Vampire, Mature), level forty 'He is also a vampire?' Jack thought within. Outward, Jack said, "I thought Aubelard fled his country without bringing any relative?" Arlcard smiled, "So, you already know my father's identity?" Sidney and Ephiltes didn't utter any sound, but their eyes went lively. This was the confirmation they were looking for. They could leave already now if they wanted to complete Horatio's task.
