The Vampire Cat System

When Bernard arrived at his dorm he couldn't sleep and kept thinking about his symbiote abilities and skills, within his mind he was reviewing them so far he had made a lot of progress he had never thought he would, not only had he improved himself than before but he had also begun to cover up for the shortcomings of his use of his abilities and skills.

Just as he was thinking he suddenly remembered what happened at the weapon hall, and couldn't help but sigh to himself, for some reason he felt like he had jinx himself, everytime he thought about Sonia and the fact she was always challenging him.

He couldn't help but wonder if he should accept her challenge, but then as he thought up to this point he wonder if he should just accept her challenge and win against her like he did before or intentionally lose the match.

However, he soon decided against it, not that he wasn't confident in himself, but If he were to accept her challenge and win, he was sure she would definitely challenge him again.

But then if he was to lose to her intentionally, and get injured he might risk blowing his cover, eventually he shook his head and simply thought it was best he continued to refused her challenge.

He couldn't help but wonder how strong he was now, he was confident in fighting against a rank 5 even if the symbiote user had a second gear of either a symbiote bloodline or beast weapon but he wasn't sure for how long, while he was thinking eventually he fell asleep when he woke up the next day, immediately he completed the daily quest, just like yesterday he was also eager to attend combat class and then his now favorite place the game hall.

It didn't take long for them to regroup, what's more, Ryan looked even more happy than he was before for some reason, although Benard couldn't tell why but he guess he had gotten over his phase with the second years' students, after going to the cafeteria to have their breakfast it was finally time to head to their classes, eventually they separated and had to go to their training classes.

Just as Bernard and Emelia got to the weapon hall and were about to begin training, to their surprise just like yesterday Sonia suddenly walked up to Bernard and stood before him, and then pointed her spear at him, when Bernard saw this he already guess what she was about to do, and simply rejected her, this process had been going on for a while now and he was getting tired of it, however he still continue to refuse her.

Not only was there no benefit in fighting her except exposing more of himself, but he was cautious of Sonia for some reason she hadn't stopped challenging him what's more it seemed like she had no intention of stopping anytime, it was like she had suddenly become possess and wouldn't stop challenging him, and at the same time, he also had no intention of accepting her challenge so he would continue to refuse her.

Eventually after challenging him several times and he didn't accept, Sonia soon left but that didn't mean she had given up instead she was going to challenge him again tomorrow as well, Sonia glared at him while walking away from Bernard and gritted her teeth out of frustration, so far she had failed at every attempt to make Bernard fight her again, but he had refused every time not even taunting and provoking him with her rude words had worked against him, each time she tried he would always act like he couldn't hear her.

After training classes were over, Bernard soon left for the game hall but then as he was paying the AI lady for the capsule ticket, that was when he saw someone the person was none other than Sonia, when he saw her he didn't pay much attention to what she was doing there and simply thought she was interested in the VR game as well, so he continued what he was doing, however, he suddenly noticed after entering she began walking towards him, and when she arrived before him, Bernard was about to refuse her when she brought out a small piece of paper and gave it to him and then left immediately after.

Bernard had a puzzled look when he saw the small piece of paper she had given, as he held it couldn't help but wonder what it was about, it couldn't be another challenge but with a letter, right? He thought but simply shook these thoughts away as soon as they came, and thought she wasn't the type of person who would do such, after all, she was like Sophia who barely expressed themselves but uses actions instead.

Nevertheless, he took a deep breath and then opened the paper, what was written on it wasn't long so he was able to read it very quickly when he did Bernard immediately became angry, on the piece of paper there were only a few words.

-Bernard Help-Ryan-

The person who had written the piece of paper was none other than Ryan, Bernard didn't know what was happening to Ryan or how Sonia had managed to get the message but he was sure of one thing Ryan was definitely in danger and the culprit was likely none other than the second years, just as he was wondering where he could locate him, that was when he noticed the extra words on the back, after reading it he realize the location was near the second years building, in the west.

Although the place from where he stood was far, he guessed if he kept running continuously he would definitely be able to reach the place within ten minutes, and if he activated Sprint he would definitely be able to reach there in several seconds, without wasting time he began running to the written location. However, what he didn't know was that Sophia had also received the same piece of paper as well, this time around the only difference was that Bernard was the one who needed her.
