	~ Juste Belmont to Dracula Wraith

Background

After Dracula’s second defeat at the hands of Simon Belmont in 1698, the people viewed him as a hero and began gathering around him. Soon enough, a peaceful village formed around the Belmont household. Nearly 30 years passed and Simon Belmont’s grandson, Juste Belmont, was born in this village and, as tradition for the Belmont Clan, trained to be a vampire hunter. However, unlike his predecessors, Juste was the first Belmont to actually grow up ingrained in society, and made friends with a girl named Lydia Erlanger, and a boy named Maxim Kischine.

The three were best friends and grew up alongside each other during Juste’s vampire hunter training sessions. Maxim, however, was also an aspiring vampire hunter, and inserted himself as Juste’s rival. The two eventually competed for who would inherit the Vampire Killer whip, but Juste outclassed Maxim in every competition they had. Eventually, Juste would follow the legacy of his ancestors and be handed the Vampire Killer on his 16th birthday.

Maxim, frustrated and jealous by Juste’s victory, decided to leave on a training expedition, and Juste had not heard from him in two years; until one day, suddenly, Maxim reappeared in town with wounds all over his body, and told Juste that Lydie had been kidnapped and taken to Dracula’s Castle. Astonished that Dracula’s Castle had risen despite it not having been a century since his previous defeat, Juste rushed over to the castle as fast as he could.

Vampire Killer whip in hand, Juste infiltrated Dracula’s Castle, only to find that Dracula himself was not there. Instead, the Belmont learned the terrible truth; Maxim’s training expedition was actually a journey to find Dracula’s body parts and resurrect him, so that he could prove himself by taking the Dark Lord down. However, Maxim was possessed by Dracula in the process, and stole Lydie himself.

Thus, Maxim had developed two separate personalities; Maxim (his regular self,) and Dark Maxim (his possessed form.) This created two alternate dimensional versions of Dracula’s Castle, Castle A and Castle B, which Juste was forced to traverse. After doing so, and conquering both entire castles, Juste finally confronted Dark Maxim in his chambers. Wearing Maxim’s bracelet while they duelled, Juste was able to regain Maxim’s memory for a split moment in order to split Dracula from him.

There, Juste discovered that the being that possessed Maxim was not Dracula himself, but an unknown Wraith who took over Dracula’s form and powers. After the Dracula Wraith fuses himself with the parts of Dracula’s body, he and Juste have one final duel, where Juste fortunately prevails.

Taking Maxim and Lydie, Juste finally escaped the crumbling castle and revelled in his victory. Lydie and Maxim returned consciousness and the three apoligzed for each other, promising to put their friendship back on track and return peacefully to the village. Juste went on to marry Lydie, and they became the direct grandparents of the legendary Richter Belmont.
