I want to be allowed to sail freely with my dog, and study the living and unliving things of the world, and create new ones. What I want, I will never be permitted, whether Dracula lives or dies.
[His shoulders lift and fall in a shrug. Maybe once, he'd thought it possible, when Dracula told him he would seize control of the seas and regulate them. He knows now that it is folly.]
But, if I fight, and somehow don't die, maybe we'll kill all the vampires and I'll be able to go and see those turtles you spoke of.
[He looks up finally at Alucard.]
Do you think Belmonts can read, or are they the type of brutes you have to fight before they'll listen? All I know of them, I've heard from their mortal enemies, so it's likely all wildly inaccurate.
