The Vampire Cat System

The moment those words left his mouth, for the first five seconds the entire class seem to be having hearing problems, and wore a flustered and confused expressions on their faces, however, in the next moment the students gradually returned to reality, as they didn't they couldn't help but begin to groan and complain loudly, upon hearing this Greg didn't say anything and simply let them voice out their complaints until he was sick and tired of hearing it three seconds later.

"Fuck! Shouldn't they have told us much earlier than this? Because of this damn exploration thingy, I went as far as spending my fucking savings just to purchase a beast weapon!

"Yeah, at least yours is much better than mine, I already took a loan just to buy a pair of beast weapon just so I could get the chance to kill a fucking magical beast, urgh, now how do I pay the loan I took? Do You know how much the fucking interest was?"

"Quiet down class, I am not yet done."Greg said angrily, as he glared at everyone before his eyes briefly stopped at the seats of Bernard and Sophia, "The exploration has not been totally canceled rather, it was only postponed but at the moment there wouldn't be any exploration as we planned due to the academy staffs are busy with a much more pressing matter at hand and until then, the exploration would be canceled."

Although the students heard these, their anger still wasn't quelled, and still kept fuming, while some thought it was the fault of the academy some were instead putting their anger on blaming the second years, at this moment while the students were grumbling beneath their breath, a rank 4 student soon stood up, although he was also angry he didn't let it cloud his sense of judgment, and simply wanted to know if there was a reason behind the exploration being canceled.

Greg glared at the student who had stood up, but still remained calm, the terrible news he had been told had been making his headache ever since he heard it, so although he was not in the mood to answer anything questions, as long as it didn't relate to those fucking aboriginals or their heirs he wouldn't say anything or freak out on the person, "Yes?"

When the students saw Greg's expression, he couldn't help but gulp down the saliva in his mouth, nevertheless, he still soldiered up and said what was on his mind, "Sir, if you don't mind me asking, what is this more pressing matter than the first years students first exploration?"

When Greg heard what he said, he was about to say something else when he took a deep breath and heaved out a sigh before opening his mouth to say to the student, "Now I do mind, and if I was allowed to tell you, students, I would have told you all, do you understand?"

After Greg said that he immediately left the classroom, without bothering to answer any more questions that had to deal with why the exploration was canceled or whatnot, after all, the last thing he wanted to hear was why it was canceled, and anything that got to do with the aboriginals or their heirs. As he left, the class soon continued from where they stopped, with their complaints and blaming the second years.

However, while this was happening eventually the students soon got full of their complaints, and gradually began to think as normal, it was at that moment they realize something wasn't right, many of them had even gone into the academy internet, and soon realize this was the first time an exploration had been postponed, yet without saying why it was postponed, with these thoughts in their mind a big question was soon on everyone's mind, sticking out like a sore thumb, what happened and why was their exploration canceled?

It couldn't be that the academy was being invaded by a foreign force right? and they were trying to fight the invading force? Although they didn't know if this was the case or not, but some of the students still thought this was likely possible, especially when the celestials were involved, they were the only race that could make any symbiote users think twice, not only that judging from the way Greg had said it doesn't mean that they had managed to get inside the academy without them being aware of it?

Meanwhile, Emelia and Ryan, on the other hand after hearing what Greg had just said didn't complain and become angry like the other students, after all, they were more concerned about Bernard and Sophia who had suddenly disappeared since yesterday after training classes, at this moment, if they were to be honest, they were actually happy that the exploration had been canceled considering they were more concerned about Bernard and Sophia unknown whereabouts.

At this moment, while they were thinking they suddenly realize the teacher Greg didn't say anything about Bernard and Sophia not attending his class like he always does when a student did not attend his class, they wouldn't have thought much of it, when it was someone else, but now that they did they realize it was kind of strange and odd that he didn't say anything, yet they also noticed he had stared at their seats for a brief moment.

What's more, if they had gotten into a fight with the second years, it would have been announced this morning, and even if they didn't the guards on mechanical suits should have told them, like they did when Bernard was injured back then in the weapon hall, besides that there was also a strict curfew for every student in the academy that no one should be out past 10 pm. Yet, surprisingly Greg didn't mention anything happening to a student, not even saying anything even when he saw they had skipped class.

At this moment they were now sure the academy knew something about Bernard and Sophia's sudden disappearance and it was likely related to why the exploration was canceled.
