Chapter 385 The Chained unleashed

On the private island, on top of the hill, there was a fairly large castle that had been built. Just beside it, a fairly large stone tablet was also present. The stone tablet was at least double the size of the castle itself, and even the castle was huge. Inside the castle, there wasn't a King or a Queen and there weren't many people who lived there either. In total, only a hundred or so people lived there.

Inside the castle, in the throne room, some people who looked like a regular family were sitting down, eating dinner at a large dining table. At the head of the table, was a large muscular old man. He had a short scruffy beard and also scruffy spiky hair that had completely grayed out at this point.

They were currently dressed in their everyday clothing and the old man himself was in a regular sleeveless top that showed his large bulging muscles. His arm itself was as wide as a regular person's thigh. The rest of the family were all dressed a little nicer, but none of them were wearing beast gear.

However, if one was to look around the room, they could see beast armour all over the dining room being put out on display, that too in multiple different styles. It seemed as if they were merely some collector's items.

Also sitting at the table was a younger man, who was only graying at the side's. His hair was neatly swept to the side and blonde in colour. Sitting next to him was a female who was similar age. Opposite the two of them were a pair of young brother and sister, both of whom were blonde as well. They were twins who seemed to be in their mid-twenties.

"So, are you really going to do nothing about Sil then?" The young boy asked.

"Yeah, Grandpa, if we did something like that, then you would have already sent us back to the castle. It's not fair." The girl complained, sitting next to the boy.

The old man stuffed his face with a fairly large chicken breast before putting it down and laughing.

"You know I have bright plans for that boy!" He continued to laugh.

"Not fair." The girl sulked. "Why has Sil always been Grandpa's favourite?"

"Come on now." The father said. "You know he has his problems. He was affected by the training worse than all of us. But at the same time, he showed better results then everyone here."

"Your father's right." The mother added. "If Sil can return to what he once was, then perhaps he would lead the family one day."

"Pft, yeah right, if that crazy kid led this family then we would all be doomed!" The girl said.

Suddenly, their meal was interrupted as a knock was heard at the door.

"Come in." The old man shouted.

A man walked in calmly, as If there was nothing to worry about at all. He was dressed in a nice suit and gave a quick bow before giving his report.

"Sir, it seems like the Island is about to be under attack." The man said.

"Really, by who?" The old man replied.

"It's Truedream sir, and he appears to have brought an army of over a thousand men." The man replied.

"A thousand men? He must be quite well known to gather that many. Why have I never heard his name?" The old man asked.

"He only recently joined one of the big families, I believe they now call it the big four." The father answered. "That's why you probably never had the chance to hear about him."

The mother was shaking her head as she heard the news. "This stuff always happens, history has a pattern of repeating itself. As time goes on and on, our influence over them lessens and they forget about what happened before."

"Well, I guess it's time to remind them of who we are." The old man said as he stood up from his chair and wiped his face with a napkin.

"Wait Grandpa, you're going out there on your own?!" the young girl said. "Isn't that a bit too much?"

"You guys carry on enjoying your meal. It's been a long time since I've been able to do something like this, and who knows, maybe this Mr. Truedream is strong." The old man said. "Send fifty or so men to stall them at the beach, have them copy the Earth ability before they go out, and bring out the Chained. I will be needing them!" The old man said with a smile.

"As you wish, sir!"

Truedream and his men had landed on the beach, and they were currently waiting for all of the others to deboard. It was important for them to attack all together. Otherwise it would be useless bringing this many people.

Once everyone had gotten off the ships, Truedream himself remained at the back of the group with his two guards. Also, another group of around ten people with portable teleporters too remained at the back of the group.

"Begin the attack!" The large man standing by Truedreams side shouted and immediately all of the men stormed and started running on the sandy beach.

At the same time, out from the trees, fifty men stood, all wearing the same type of armour at an equal distance from each other. Their armour was blue and silver in colour and they all looked like Knights as their entire bodies and faces were covered from head to toe.

At the same time, each one of them lifted their hands, and then a giant wall of sand was lifted, creating a giant wall in front of them. As they all pushed forward, the wall moved like some type of wave crashing into the army of people that were coming their way.

The war had started. The wall had managed to deter a few people, trapping them, or delaying them for a bit, but the others were able to avoid the attack by flying up in the air, shooting beams through the sand, or moving it away with their telekinesis power.

"What is this? Are the Blade family just a bunch of earth users? Then that makes them no different from the military. Why are they so special? This should be easier than I thought." Jack said.

One of the unique things about the Truedream family, was that they all didn't carry a single power. Although they might have not been the top powers, it also meant that they didn't really have a weakness.

For instance, the Greylash family always struggled to fight against the military's earth power. Sometimes, abilities just had natural weaknesses, but it was impossible to come up with a counter against Truedreams army.

The fight continued on and it looked like somehow; the army was being stalled, unable to advance. Although none of them were truly injured, the Blades had perfect teamwork when it came to using the earth's ability and they were on the defensive, as if they were stalling for something.

"This can't be everything you've got." Jack said. "Bring it on."

Back in the castle, the old man had finished putting on his beast gear. He wore a sleeveless chest piece to allow him free movement in the arm area, and normal trousers with crystalized boots. The chest piece itself also looked as if it was made from diamonds as well. It was unclear whether or not it was beast armour, or something that was made just for show.

He was inside an empty hall where there was nothing but a stone tablet. One that was similar to the one outside, only smaller in size. Then, the sounds of chains banging against the floor could be heard along with the sound of them rubbing against each other.

"I have brought the chained like you asked."

As the old man turned around, he could see five people standing in front of him, all of them chained by their necks, arms and legs. Their faces looked malnourished, as if they were given the bare minimum to survive, and they hadn't even been given clothes to cover themselves up in.

"Each of your families at one point or another tried to get rid of us." The old man said. "Today, another fool has tried to do the same, and soon he will be joining all of you as well."

The old man walked up to each one of them, touching them on the head. As he did this action, it looked as if they hadn't even noticed what was happening around them. Their eyes were as if they were already dead.

"Let's go deal with this fool."

Chapter 386 The strongist powers in one

Finally, it looked like the fifty or so earth users were tiring out. They couldn't hold back a thousand or so powerful men forever. Although, Jack had never expected so little people to come face him. The problem with having a big army was not everyone was able to directly fight at the same time.

Sometimes in war, strategy was needed and Jack had planned to do this, but after seeing how little people there were, he decided against it and his plan seemed to be working as he began moving further up the island and opposing men had started to move back.

A special green beam came shooting out through one of the sand walls and managed to hit one of the Blade's knights on the shoulder. However, although the attack was powerful and managed to knock the knight over, the attack itself seemed to have bounced off, going into the air and causing no damage.

On closer inspection, it looked as if a lot of the attacks were merely bouncing off the armour and it was also the reason why they were able to last for so long. It turned out that the ordinary-looking knight armour wasn't so ordinary after all.

Still, it didn't matter if the front row managed to move forward, because then suddenly, several large blue thunderbolts came shooting outward. It moved so fast that no one was able to react to it in time. As it hit the first person, the electrical power seemed to pass onto the next until the whole front row had collapsed and fallen onto the floor.

For a second, everyone on the battlefield had frozen.

One of Truedreams men, who was just behind the front row, quickly knelt down, as he went to check on his companion. He tried shaking him, hitting him, doing anything he could until he eventually pressed his ear against the person's chest.

It stayed there for a while until...

"He's dead…" the man said, then he turned and looked at all the others in the front row and none of them were moving either.

"What is going on!" Jack thought. "Isn't that the Greylash's power and a powerful one at that? Is the family head here? What are they doing on the island?"

But as the fifty or so men moved back into the jungle and headed back to the castle, a single large old man wearing a crystal chest piece and boots stepped out from the jungle and onto the sand. His right hand was completely covered in blue lightning racing up and down, from his shoulders, all the way to his fingertips.

Knowing what just happened, many of the men were a little stiff and unwilling to move. There wasn't a single person on that island that was wearing armour below that of the king tier, yet still, they had been taken out with a single attack.

"My name is Hilston Blade, I'm the leader of the Blade family." The old man said. "The reason why I am telling you this is because you should all at least know the name of the person who will be taking your life."

As Hilston, the old man stomped his foot in a certain direction. In the next instant the sand that was below them had been hardened and turned into spikes, piercing many of them. With his other hand, he fired more lighting bolts.

"What are you all doing? He's only one man. Kill him!" Truedream shouted.

Of course, the army had the confidence of having multiple people on their side, and some of them were filled with anger at their fallen comrades. As they came close to him though, they could suddenly feel it getting hotter. An extreme heat was being emitted from the old man's body.

Throwing out a kick with one of his legs, a vertical line of flames had come out of it, knocking all the people away who had come close. As for those in the sky, they continued to be shot down by thunderbolts.

"What is this, how is this possible?" Jack said, as he continued to stay at the back. "He has earth power as strong as the military, fire power and lightning power from the other big families. The only one he is missing is from the Bree family. Not just that, this level of power is not normal. Nothing like this was recorded in the fight against the Dalki. How has a secret like this been kept for so long?"

At this moment, Jack was starting to panic a little, but he still had plenty of men left alive, and as long as they continued to fight, he was sure that eventually all of the old man's MC cells would be used up. Every person in the world had a limit, and this included Truedream himself. The stronger the power that was stored inside him, the less powers he could store at a time.

"ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" Suddenly though, a loud roar that spread throughout the island was heard. It had interrupted Jack in the middle of his thoughts completely.

"Ah, my little pet, it took you a while." The old man smiled.

The sound of something heavy flapping was heard and then a large shadow overcasting the whole beach was seen. As they all looked up in the sky, they could only see what could be described as a…

"Drra dra Dragon!" One of the men shouted.

In the air, a large Dragon the size of an aircraft was seen hovering about. Brown and gold in colour. Of course, Dragon's were nothing but mere legends and myths; this was something that only looked like a dragon.

"If it isn't a dragon." Jack thought. "Then that means it's a beast"

As it landed on part of the beach, the whole ground slightly shook by its sheer weight. And anything that was below its feet was crushed. The men were now split between dealing with Hilston and the Dragon.

With a single sweep of its tail, men were sent flying back, knocked into the ocean. Then they all quickly realised something, none of their attack with weapons or abilities could do any damage to it at all.

"Sir!" The large man standing by Jack's side shouted. "We have to leave, I'm telling you, that's most likely a beast that is at the Demon level. I have never seen something so powerful before, and I have no clue how he was able to keep one under his control."

Then suddenly something had clicked in Jack's head. The man must have also been using the Bree family's power. That was how he was able to control the dragon. All four of the world's strongest powers were in a single man's hands.

He didn't know how, but now he understood why the others were afraid to touch the Blade family. If this was the power of one person. Imagine a whole army of people with the same set of powers.

"Get the teleporters ready, we're getting out of here." Jack whispered under his breath, out of anger.

Anyone of the other big families could have said more than a warning. They could have at least hinted why the Blades were so powerful. Instead, they decided to keep it to themselves.

Jack then noticed that some of the men who were carrying the teleporters had already opened it themselves and were starting to escape, heading back to the Truedream city.

"Come on!" Jack shouted. "Quickly."

Kenny quickly placed the teleporter on the ground, and the three of them without wasting any time were ready to jump through, but before doing so. Jack had pulled out a small little controller and pressed a button. A beeping sound could be heard, coming from all of the teleporters they had brought with them.

The three then quickly jumped into the teleporter and soon after, each of the ten teleporters exploded.

"That bastard, he left us all here to die. He blew up all the teleporters. How are we meant to get away now!" The men shouted and screamed.

They knew they were hopeless and their family head that they had pledged loyalty to, without a second thought had abandoned them all.

"Curse you Jack, I hope you die."

As the man said that, he was lifted by the head and his body turned around, looking behind Hilston, all that could be seen were the bodies of his dead comrades. Not a single person was now alive.

"Don't worry. I shall grant your wish. We never let people get away." Hilston said, and with a single flick, the man's head twisted and his body fell to the floor.

A few days later, a report had come in for the Supreme commander. Stating that Truedream city and all of its inhabitants, had been wiped off of the face of the earth.

Chapter 387 Trapped

As each person of the group stepped through the portal, they all held onto each other's shoulders firmly. They weren't quite sure how the square portals worked in relation to the circular portals. Was it like a station or a white portal where it was able to teleport you to a specific destination. Or was it like a red teleporter, where it would teleport you within a mile or so of another one.

Whatever the outcome was, the group didn't want to be separated from each other. So whatever they did while stepping through, they didn't let go.

Standing at the front was Quinn, leading the charge if they were to head into any sort of danger, and at the back, was Layla their support with Cia being a little bit in front of her.

The warpy feeling they would feel when going through the teleporter was gone, and Cia had her eyes closed through the whole thing. Now they had finally made it to their destination. But when Cia opened her eyes. She could see nothing. It was complete darkness.

"What's going on!" Cia said being frightened, her voice shaking. She tightened her grip on the person in front of her, which was Vorden.

"Ow! your nails hurt, you know," Vorden complained.

"But I can't see anything!" She cried.

"And you think I can?" Vorden too was unable to see anything around him, but he was sure they were on the other side of the teleporter.

"I expected the vampire world to be dark, but complete darkness? This doesn't make any sense." Logan said.

"We're not outside, that's why," Quinn replied, being one of the few that could see. Layla and Quinn could both see quite well in the room.

"Is it safe to act, is there anything around us?" Logan asked, not wanting to make any sudden movements, although he was sure that if there was anything in the room with them, they would have been attacked by now due to Cia's and Vorden's back-and-forth chatter. The two of them still seemed to be bickering with each other now.

"It's safe," Quinn replied.

From underneath his suit, the spiders moved up to his face and started to form around his eyes, creating a type of night vision for Logan. Now he too could see clearly where they were. As soon as he realised what it was, the adrenaline started to run through his body.

The whole room was covered with terminals, servers, and computers. Not just that, but where they stood there was a circular platform and above them some type of contraption. In corners of the room, there were chemical gadgets and all sorts. But what was getting him excited more than anything was the layout of the room.

If he was to move all of his research to a place like this, it would be exactly how he would organize it.

"Alright everyone don't panic, just wait here for a moment," Logan said as he let go of who he was holding on to and started to investigate one of the terminals. There were many buttons that Logan had no clue what they did. He could have guessed, but if he did it wouldn't exactly be accurate, so instead, he placed his hand on the machine..

Using his ability, he was able to directly communicate with it and give it orders. It was easy to tell which was the main terminal and soon, several lights opened all over the room.

"Ah!" Quinn flinched as the lights turned on, and Layla had done the same. "Could you warn us a beforehand the next time?"

Lights didn't hurt Quinn like the sunlight did, but sudden exposure from dark to light would startle him a bit.

Now the whole group could see quite clearly that they seemed to be in some sort of science lab. Although it also looked to be abandoned. Some of the computers and equipment had rusted and there were cobwebs over everything as if they hadn't been touched in a hundred years.

"Alright, let's try to spread out and look for clues or something," Logan said. "Now I must remind you, I said spread out, not split up, got it. Stay in this room. We all know what happens to the first person who gets lost in a horror film, right?"

"Is it really the right time to make that type of joke?" Layla asked. "When we're on another planet with a load of bloodsucking vampires."

"I'll take your point on board," Logan replied.

Logan had signalled for Quinn to come with him as he wanted to confirm something, while the others tried to find any details of where they were. The room was strange, there were several numbered doors on one side that didn't seem to open no matter what they did. Then there were two larger doors on each of the other sides, but none of them opened either. In a way, it seemed like they were trapped..

There were no windows or anything similar that indicated where they were.

"Would you mind using your system to try to figure out who made these items?" Logan asked pointing forth at the weird claw-like object above the circle platform they had landed on.

[Inspect]

[A teleporter created by Richard Eno]

Quinn then went ahead and looked at a few other items, and although the system couldn't tell what most of them were, it did tell him they were all created by Richard Eno.

"It's a teleporter," Quinn answered

"I thought as much." Replied Logan. "At least now we have our way back. I can activate it whenever I want using the terminal over there. Although everything looks old and damaged in here. It's quite advanced. Some of this technology has only recently been introduced to our world."

"Makes sense, why it says they were all made by Richard Eno." Quinn said.

A teleporter created by Richard Eno had led them to a laboratory created by him as well. It was clear it wasn't a coincidence. The question was, had what Fex said correct. Were they really now in the vampire world? Or had he made a mistake in just recognizing the teleporter as one of their own.

They wouldn't know until they dug deeper, but other than that, the two of them started to think along the same lines.

If they were in the vampire world, then what was Richard Eno doing here? There were a few possibilities. He was a vampire himself that later migrated to the human world. Or a human who worked with the vampires or was doing research on the vampires. All of these were a great possibility.

"Quinn, thank you." Logan said with a smile on his face.

The two of them continued searching until they eventually reached another working terminal. This one had several different screens, six in total. Each screen seemed to be linked to a camera and all of the room's looked exactly the same. It was a square space with nothing inside. It reminded Quinn of certain mental asylums.

"Look at this." Quinn said pointing to the screen.

Logan had seen it too. The rooms had marks of blood all over them. The wall, ceilings and floor. However, they were quite dark and looked like they had been there for a while.

"Maybe the rooms were used to run experiments of some sorts." Logan said. "Live subjects, human subjects, or other vampires?"

"Well, if we can get to where those cameras are, I can actually check the blood. Maybe it will give us more answers to what type of place this is, and who exactly Richard Eno was, because I don't know why, but this place is giving me the chills."

While Layla and Cia were sticking to each other like glue, Vorden was looking at the wall with the several doors that had different numbers on them. There were six doors in total, each with a number on the front.

He saw the girls looking at them earlier but didn't really attempt to open them much. Feeling a little trapped, he was looking for an exit. As he approached the first door he looked around to see if there was anything but there really was nothing.

At the same time, over to where Quinn and Logan were, they had just figured out something. Logan's hand was pressed up against the computer. "It's telling me if we press this button it will open a door to one of the rooms."

Pressing the button, the door had opened, and a slight steamy sound was heard. When they looked up at where the door had opened from they could see Vorden standing in front of an open door.

Vorden could see a room in front of him but was cautious about stepping in. But nearly in an instant, something had grabbed him, pulling him in. The doors soon after immediately shut again.

"Level 1 trial initiated!"

"Open the door!" Quinn shouted.

"I can't!" Logan replied. "I don't know what's happening, it's not listening."

Vorden was trapped.

Chapter 388 The First trial

Logan now had both of his hands pressed on the terminal, and his expression was one of struggle as he started to sweat a little. This was the first time Quinn had seen him panic like that. This only meant they were in a tough situation.

"I can't open the door!" Logan shouted. "It can understand me, and it's listening to me, but it's the first time a machine has ever been able to outright refuse my request like this. What's going on?"

He tried and tried again, but it was clear that right now there was nothing they could do to help Vorden. The two girls were not too far from the other doors themselves, and before anything could happen to them, Quinn quickly called them over.

"Come over here!" Quinn shouted. "We don't want any more surprises."

All of them were now carefully watching one of the screens on the terminal that clearly showed Vorden in the room.

Inside the room, Vorden had felt a very strong force pulling him by the back of his collar. He was practically chucked into the room, but as soon as the door closed, whatever that was pulling him had stopped. He immediately turned around and as he did, he drew out both of the black and white blades, ready for anything.

He had touched Cia before, so he also had her ability, but nothing else, and hers wasn't an offensive one in the first place, so the only thing he could rely on right now were the weapons.

Now, standing in front of him, he could see one thing in the room. It was a robot. Although not a humanoid looking one, to say the least. Its upper body was like that of a human, having two hands and a chest frame with a head on top, but after that nothing else looked human. Where its head should have been there was a single eye that looked like a pair of binoculars and as for the legs they were non-existent.

Instead, it was a pair of triangle shaped wheels with the tire being a band that would move along with the robot. Emulating a treadmill. Since it was the only thing in the room, Vorden could only guess that it was this robot that had pulled him in.

Although it looked weak, for a brief second, he had felt its strength and was extremely cautious. As he backed up with his blades continually drawn, he didn't break eye contact even for a second. Then when he felt his back go up against the wall, Vorden lifted his foot and hit it as hard as he could with his heel. But there was no response, he could not move it at all.

When Quinn had used his inspect skill, he had made a note that everything was made of galthrium, which was why he hadn't tried to even attempt at breaking down any of the doors. And if Quinn couldn't do it, then Vorden definitely felt like he couldn't do it either.

"Trial one has been initiated." A voice said from the Robot. "A new participant has been detected. Please state your family number."

"Family number?" Vorden said, looking confused. 'Does he mean my family name?' "Blade family!" Vorden shouted.

The robot took a few seconds to reply back. "Error, Family Number not found, please try again."

"What do we do?" Layla asked. "Is he going to be okay?"

"I'm not sure." Logan replied. Usually the group always went to him for answers, but with the way things were, he was a bit shell-shocked and had no idea how to proceed in this type of situation. "The only thing I can guess is the robot said this is some type of trial, right? If he passes maybe he can get out. But the machine, it's got a mind of its own. Usually my ability gives a life to things with a voice, it allows me to communicate and control them, but this machine, it already had its own voice. It was as if I was talking to another human and it's refusing to do anything I ask it to do."

Hearing this crisis and what the robot was saying, Quinn thought he might be the only one that would be able to help Vorden out of this trial. "System, do you know anything about this place? What is it?"

"I'm afraid not, this whole area is unfamiliar and I've never seen anything like this before." The system replied.

Quinn did remember stating that when the system was alive, he lived on earth. So it would make sense to not know about this if the lab was relocated along with the vampires.

"You want a number right?" Vorden said, "Then my lucky number 77."

"Error, family number not found, please try again."

Hearing the robot speak again, Quinn had an idea. If they were in the vampire world, then it must be related to the thirteen vampire families. "Vorden, pick a number between one and thirteen!" he shouted.

Hearing this, Vorden replied. "10"

"Please state your current rank?" For the first time it had asked another question, and they were starting to make progress.

"Vampire!" Quinn shouted, assuming it meant the different evolutions within the vampire circles."

"Vampire."

The robot then started to move slightly. Out of its chest piece, a small door was opened and came out with what looked like a small tray. On it, a syringe with a green solution inside was displayed.

"Will you be taking the solution for this trial?" The robot asked.

This at least confirmed one thing to the others, the trial hadn't even begun yet.

However, both Quinn and Logan were extremely interested in what was exactly in the strange green liquid. Perhaps it would give them answers to what this whole trial thing was about in the first place.

"Quinn, what do I say? You've been right about everything so far." Vorden said. "But just to warn you, I have a feeling that if I say yes, there's a good chance he's going to force me to take it. Or won't let me leave until I take the solution."

It was clear by the question presented that this was an optional thing, and however much Quinn and Logan were interested in the syringe, they couldn't just use Vorden like a guinea pig. Especially in extreme situations like this.

"Say no!" Quinn shouted.

"No." Vorden replied, and the green solution went back into the strange robot. For the first time, the robot had moved from its place and went to the back of the room up against the wall.

All of these actions, and the anticipation of what was about to happen next, was making not only Vorden nervous but the rest as well.

Suddenly from above, a hole in the ceiling had appeared and then closed nearly just as quick. In the short time it had opened, something had fallen from the ceiling and made a loud thumping noise below.

The first thing that came to Vorden's senses wasn't the appearance of what had fallen, but instead was the smell. He had wanted to immediately lift his shirt to cover his mouth, but was aware he couldn't. The smell was extremely bad; it smelled as if food had been left out for several days.

Then when looking at what had dropped on the floor and where the smell had come from. He could see something had been wrapped up in a black rag, and on the outside of it was blood.

Moving forward towards the black ragged item, Vorden pointed his black sword forward and reached out, pushing it with the side of his sword. The item had unwrapped itself from the rag and rolled out, revealing a severed arm.

Immediately outside, Cia had to look away from the screen. She could take all of the things Layla had said, but seeing this, reality started to hit her about what type of place they were really in.

Looking at the arm closer, Vorden could tell that it clearly wasn't a fresh one, for it was very pale in colour and most of the inside looked rotten. After dealing with Peter, he had seen his fair share of fresh limbs that had been cut off.

"The trial will now begin!" An announcement was made.

Once again, one of the panels from the ceiling quickly opened and this time on the other side of the room, something larger had fallen to the floor.

It was curled up in a ball, but it looked to be human. Its boney spine could be seen, and it had no clothes, apart from a rag covering its privates. It was bald and almost grey in colour.

"Grgrgr…GRgrggr..Grgrg."

Strange sounds could be heard coming from the figure, and Vorden proceeded to take a few step backs slowly, not wanting to make any noise.

Slowly, the figure started to uncurl from its ball-like shape and stood on its two feet. It was tall, nearly seven foot and looked just like a human. However, it looked as if the creature was made of nothing but skin and bones, as in its ribcage, knee caps and several other areas could be seen clearly, then when looking at its head, all that could be seen in its eyes was white.

"GRAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The creature screamed, and as it opened its mouth wide, it revealed several razor-sharp teeth. Similar to a vampire, only every single one of its teeth was just as sharp.

"Quinn.." The system said with horror in its voice. "That's a Wendigo!"

Chapter 389 A Reward

Wendigo, it was a word that hadn't been mentioned in a while and it had long shifted to the back of Quinn's mind, but suddenly all of the bad thoughts came rushing out his head as the system had said those words. The wendigo was one of the evolution's a ghoul could evolve into.

It was one of the options that Peter was able to evolve into but instead, he turned into a Wight.

They were similar to Wights with their amazing healing capabilities and strength, but at the same time vastly different. They showed no signs of intelligence and were unable to speak any words. They were detached from any emotion, only feeling one thing, hunger. Their hunger was far greater for flesh than a Ghoul or a Wight. While they did it out of survival, the Wendigo's did it out of addiction.

They were one of the very few evolutions that, when created, would be completely detached from their creator. They could be killed without any type of ramifications since the connection was no longer there. Which made them perfect for testing situations like this.

"How strong is that thing!" Quinn hurriedly asked the system, knowing full well Vorden didn't have many abilities.

"It's hard to tell just from looks. It's unlike a Wight that gets stronger as its master gets stronger due to their connection. A wendigo will only be as strong as its master was when it evolved, and then further gaining strength depending how much it has eaten. Meaning it all depends on who created it and what happened after."

With no clue on what to do, or how to help, it looked like Vorden was on his own with this one.

Stepping back, Vorden readied himself as the Wendigo started to move closer to the middle of the room.

'Once it goes for that arm, it will be my chance to attack.' Vorden thought.

The Wendigo carried on moving and just as it reached the center it didn't stop; it had completely stepped over the arm, ignoring it completely. In a second, all of Vordens hopes were dashed.

"Of course, why would it go for that manky old thing when it has a freshly made burger right in front of it."

Although it was large in size, perhaps it wasn't powerful, was Vorden's next thoughts, but suddenly, the wendigo leaped towards Vorden with its long clawed arms, A roll was made at just the right time dodging the attack, but as soon as he gained his footing another swipe was made.

Activating the white sword had allowed his body to move just a tad bit faster and he had blocked the attack. Still, his whole arm was flung to the side. Quickly switching back to Black blade, Vorden swung down hard at the second claw that was coming at him, managing to pin it and hit it to the ground.

After practising a little with the swords, Vorden realised that the pair had a very unique active skill. Called "Yin and Yang." Although both weapons had an active skill, while using one he was unable to use the other.

When using the yang blade, his whole body got a speed boost allowing him to use his sword skills and movements quickly. When using the Yin blade, although his speed was back to normal, his power was greatly increased and now he could tell he was able to match it in power.

Still there was one problem. The Wendigo was both faster and stronger than his natural self. Making it difficult as he quickly needed to switch between the two as he did then. This was not only taxing for his mind but for his body as well.

Lifting up the balck blade, he quickly activated the white blade's power and started to move back, avoiding the next set of swipes that came his way.

"Will you please give me a break!" he shouted, as the Wendigo carried on coming at him like a wild animal.

There was only one thing left that he could do. He threw the black blade up in the air, while using the white blade to dodge the fast attacks, this meant that now his other hand was free, and he was able to use the spirit spear. Throwing it outward, it had stabbed the Wendigo in the stomach. It caused no pain, but that wasn't what Vorden was aiming for.

The beast was greatly slowed and it was at a speed that Vorden could now match. As he dodged the next set of attacks, he did a little spin and jumped for the black blade in the air. As soon as he did that, he activated the black blade's power and swung both blades right at the wendigo's head, cutting it clean off.

It's body quickly fell to the floor and Vorden was huffing and panting greatly. His breathing was completely off and his chest was hurting. The constant switching was also messing up with his body's natural rhythm, even causing his heart to misbeat in some areas which was extremely dangerous. Any longer and he could have been in serious trouble.

"I don't know if that boy is lucky or just has really good instincts." The system said. "If he was to cut off any other part of the Wendigo's body, it would have almost healed on the spot, prolonging the fight. Cutting off the head is the only way to kill an undead."

"And you don't think he could have used that advice during the fight!" Quinn said back, annoyed at the useless system.

"The fight was far too intense to allow any distractions. Telling you, to tell him would have made his chances of survival decrease."

While Vorden was still holding his chest in the white room, there was one thing he was sure about. If he needed to fight another one of those things, he wasn't sure if he could make it out alive.

The robot once again started to move over to the Wendigo's body. It pointed one of its hands towards the body, and after a few seconds that hand had completely transformed into what looked like an oval shaped canon. Out from it, a large lazer like substance was shot. It wasn't harming the room in any way but as it touched the body, parts of it quickly turned into ash.

'I guess I did the right thing to not try to fight that thing.' Vorden thought as he gulped.

As soon as the whole thing was turned to ash, like a vacuum it started to suck up the ashes until there was no trace of the wendigo left at all. The same process was then done with the rag and arm as well. The robot then moved back towards the centre and finally made an announcement.

"Trial one has been completed, would you like to continue onto the next one?" The robot asked.

"Hell no!" Vorden answered immediately. "Get me out of here."

"Trial put on hold. Rewards shall be distributed." The robot once again opened up the tray on its body, only this time, a red round shaped pill was placed on it.

The door had yet to open as Vorden looked around, and it looked like nothing would happen until he took the pill.

"Damn it!" he thought as he picked up the pill, but at the same time the steam sound of the door opening behind him was heard. He only needed to take the reward and not actually consume it.

He was never happier to leave such a place, and not waiting a second, bolted out of the room. When he left, the door behind closed once again.

"Vorden are you hurt anywhere?" Layla said, running up to him and looking around.

"I'm fine, that thing didn't even put a scratch on me." He replied.

"It did look like you were having a hard time in there, but I'm just happy I wasn't the one that caused your death." Logan said.

"Do you mind if I take a look at what that robot gave you?" Quinn asked.

Vorden showed Quinn the small little red ball pill and Quinn used his inspect skill to see what it was.

[Inspect]

[A special Pill designed by Richard Eno]

[It will permanently increase one's strength]

The description was short and for a second Quinn had to read it again. He had never heard of any type of pill that could do such a thing before. But now what he was more worried about was if there were any side effects to such a thing and if anyone could use it.

"Do you know what it is?" Vorden asked.

"Kinda." Quinn replied. He decided it was time to explain further how his vampire powers worked. It didn't make sense to hide it any longer and it was only making things more difficult. Just because they knew it was a system wouldn't change a thing.

So he proceeded to tell them about how the system and his vampire powers worked. Now they all knew how Quinn was able to get stronger and why he had known so much information about things. The only thing he still kept a secret was the AI system related to the system. Even he didn't know much about it and that would just complicate things.

"Anyway, when using my inspect skill, it says it can permanently increase a person's strength. Honestly, it sounds similar to when I consume an A type of blood, but I don't know if it will even work or if there are any side effects."

Vorden thought about it for a while before giving his answer.

"I think it's best if I keep it for now, maybe we will find more information on it, or when we get back, Logan can do more research." Vorden repleid.

Finding out about the effects of the pill had only made Quinn more interested in what the green liquid in the syringe was.

"Do you think we could start the trial again?" Quinn asked.

The others turned and suddenly looked at him like he was a type of mad man, while Logan seemed to be the only one on the same wavelength.

"Listen him out, right now we have no way of getting out of here." Logan said. "Even after using all these terminals, none of them open the doors out to this building. The only thing we have seen though, is stranger things enter it through that room. Who knows if there are more creatures, we might even be in a large facility, but we still need to find a way to get out of here."

Quinn also wanted to go and inspect the blood on the walls, to see if it really was from a vampire or human.

"I should be fine, if it's like before and a wendigo comes out, I'm confident I should be able to beat it fairly easily." Quinn replied. "And this time I'll stay in the room to see if there's anything I can do from the inside."

The others didn't like it, but honestly there was no better option. Quinn prepared himself before entering and had chosen to go in the same door. The other doors were unknown variables. Most likely they all did the same thing, so they could run six different tests at the same time, but just to make sure it was safe, he chose to pick the same room. Here they at least knew a little bit of what could happen.

"Open the door!" Quinn said and Logan pushed the button, allowing the door to open.

As Quinn stepped into the room, the robot was already there, waiting for him. The door behind him then closed and the robot started up once again.

"Resuming trials, trial two will now begin."

Chapter 390 Trial 2

Entering the room, an unexpected message had occurred, but the door behind Quinn closed instantly. Judging from what happened with Vorden, now there was nothing he could do until the trial was complete.

"Did that thing just say trial two?" Layla asked. "And not trial one?"

They all thought the same thing. When entering, they thought the robot would recognize Quinn as a new subject. Starting the process all over again from the beginning.

Seeing that this wasn't the case, Logan naturally tried looking for answers. He placed his hand on the terminal, trying to communicate with it one more time. Machines, robots, they all followed a set of code, instructions, rules.

However, he was only met with disappointment. Once again reminded about how this strange computer seemed to have a mind of its own. Doing things out of the ordinary.

Quinn was unafraid, confident in his new skills and newfound power. He was able to get a good gauge on the Wendigo's strength watching Vorden, and if he was to face something a little harder, he knew he could get through it.

Instead, multiple thoughts were running through his head, thinking about how they could get out of this place. What exactly was this place being used for.

Looking at several of the blood marks, Quinn activated his level three inspect skill. A little window popped up above each one of the blood, giving out little bits of information.

What had surprised him a little was how the blood marks were a mixture of human as well as an unknown blood type. If he was to take a guess, the unknown blood type would belong to the vampires. They didn't have a set blood type like the humans did, but were still red in colour all the same.

Looking at the information, there wasn't much detail. Only what letter the blood type was, as for the ones he couldn't recognize, it just came up with several question marks.

Before the trial would start just like last time, the robot opened up its little tray from its chest piece and revealed the green solution.

[Inspect]

[A 10 percent increase in all stats. Once consumed. Will last one hour]

Although the inspect skill once again couldn't tell where the green liquid had come from, seeing that message caused something to click in Quinn's head. The effect he was looking at now was the same effect when he had consumed the Dalki's green blood. It couldn't have been a coincidence that the liquid in the syringe was green in colour, on top of having the same effect. There was a high chance that it was Dalki blood.

'Are the vampires and the Dalki really related after all?' Quinn thought, but there was another confusing thing. The system had seen Dalki blood before, so why didn't it register it. Instead, it just came up with question marks.

"Will you be taking the solution for this trial?" the robot said.

"Yes," Quinn replied.

"What are you doing, Quinn!" Vorden shouted, hearing his answer. "It a risky thing, and maybe the robot won't start the trial until you actually take the thing. We can't guarantee it will be like the rewards."

But Quinn had another theory, he was 90 percent sure this was exactly the same as the Dalki blood. When he consumed the blood before there were no side effects and only positives. The way he was now, it was unlikely he would die by such a thing, and it was clear they were testing this out on vampires and possibly humans as well.

They wouldn't just outright give them a solution that would kill them.

Taking the syringe from the robot, he waited for some type of response. But nothing came, which meant Vorden was right. It wanted him to take the syringe before the trial would start.

"Sorry Logan, looks like I'm going to have to find some other way to get you this stuff." Digging the needle into the top of his thigh, the green liquid slowly injected into his body.

A strange tingling sensation could be felt inside travelling through, it started to spread all over as if his body was on fire. It reminded him a little of the sensation he had felt at the hospital after consuming too many blood types. Finally, it stopped, but his body felt fresh.

[Status]

After looking at his stats, a big smile appeared on his face. It was a temporary buff in strength, but since he had hit his limit, he wasn't too sure if it would have worked, but looked like the effects were still there as all of his stats had increased by 4.

"Trial two will now begin." The robot said as it moved back and allowed for two objects wrapped in rags to fall to the floor. There was no need to check what was underneath those rags as they all already knew.

[Inspect]

[A severed human arm]

"Not too much of a surprise.." Quinn said.

Shortly after, two more larger objects had dropped from the ceiling, and they had already seen these once before. They were the Wendigo's that Vorden had faced only moments ago.

"I'm glad I could leave the room," Vorden said. "I would have been dead otherwise."

It wasn't because Vorden was by any means weak. Just at this moment, he felt so, due to not having any of his abilities to copy from. He was thankful he had at least the two swords to defend himself.

"Where are those ugly things coming from?" Cia asked.

"She has a point," Logan replied. "How many of those Wendigo's do they even have? Is there a breeding ground somewhere of some sorts, maybe a storage room where they are all kept in? On top of that, how long have they been up there, judging by the "food" They are dropping with it, it's been a long time since anyone has looked after this place.

"I hate to say it, but this facility might be incredibly dangerous. Once Quinn gets out of there, we should do our best to leave this place and stop playing this robot's silly games.

"I hate when I have no clue what's happening, and I can't even think straight." Logan's mind had been rattled by this whole experience. The excitement he initially had was now completely gone, and he just wanted to leave. Usually, machines, gadgets and robots would be his safe haven, but right now, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Perhaps at a later time, when they understood more, he would be happy to come back.

Quinn stayed in the centre not moving from his spot, he had all of his beast gear on and that included his new gauntlets. They had been equipped before he had even travelled through the teleporter in case they ran into trouble the second they arrived.

The two, Wendigo's started to get up from their crouched positions and in a split second both of them lept straight forward towards Quinn.

'Your aggressive nature makes you all a little bit too predictable.'

They were both quite a bit taller than himself, but when they lept they were slightly crouched like a beast making them level with his shoulders.

At just the right time, Quinn jumped up avoiding a pair of long arms and kicking the others away. Now being slightly above them, on the way back down he grabbed them both on top of their heads. He felt like he could have quite easily dealt with them, and if he wanted to he could have crushed their skulls. But there was something he was eager to try out.

[Activate skill: Thunder coat]

Quickly, the blue lines running through his gauntlets started to light up. They followed from his elbow all the way down to his fingertips. In nearly an instant, a blue electric discharge came out covering both of his gauntlets. The power was passed through onto the wendigos shocking thier bodies. They immediately fell to the floor and started to shake uncontrollably.

"It managed to stop them completely. They were quite physically powerful. But the attack doesn't seem to have done much damage?" It was a good opponent to test the active skill on, and so far Quinn was pleased, but still, he had no idea how this would affect even stronger opponents.

Using all of his strength, Quinn stomped on the first Wendigos head. Splattering it to pieces. It was done so easily it was as if there was no skull at all. He then did the same to the other while it continued to shake about on the floor, and now their bodies were no longer moving.

Cia seeing how easy and quick Quinn had dealt with the things turned her head to look at Vorden. 'Was he just weak?' She thought, but then remembered how quick she could see him moving on the camera, that couldn't be the case and he had even used her spirit blade.

It just meant the person she was watching now, was incredibly strong.

'I'm glad he's on our side, I would hate to be his enemy.'

[A wendigo has been killed]

[400 exp gained]

[400 exp gained]

[First time kill bonus reward]

[4000 exp ]

[Current exp]

[29690/51200]

'There's still a long way to go, they're just not strong enough.' Quinn thought.

After the robot had finished cleaning up the mess, it did the same as last time.

"Trial two completed, please take your rewards."

This time, two red pills were displayed, one was the exact same one that Vorden had, as for the other, it looked the same but gave a different effect.

[Will permanently increase the user's Agility.]

After taking the two pills, the robot started again...

"Would you like to continue onto trial three?"

Although Quinn thought it might be a good idea to continue on playing around with the trials, he didn't know how long they would go on for and if it would even result in them leaving the place.

"No," Quinn replied.

The door had instantly opened, and in that brief second, Quinn had activated his boots, giving him a ten percent increase in speed. With his stat increase, the strange green substance and his boots active skill, his speed was now beyond fifty points taking him to the next level.

In the short time, using all his strength, he picked up the strange-looking robot, and ran as fast as he could out of the door. As if everything was playing in slow motion in his eyes, he could see the door already closing, but it was far too slow for him now.

As the door shut behind him, Quinn had the robot safely placed above his head.

"This should be a nice little gift, huh?" Quinn said.

Chapter 391 Trial rewards

As soon as Quinn had come out with the robot above his head, the others immediately started to duck behind terminals, tables, and desks. They had all seen through the video feed, what it had done to the Wendigo's body and they were all starting to panic, thinking the robot might suddenly go on some sort of rampage.

But, after waiting a few seconds, they started to lift their hands off their ears and peak over the objects they were hiding behind.

"What are you all so worried about?" Quinn said, with the robot now standing upright by his side.

Looking at the robot closely, previously its single eye on its head would be glowing red, especially when it was giving orders, but now they could see no such thing.

Although Quinn wasn't a hundred percent sure, as soon as he said "No" he could see the robot's eye colour dim as it deactivated itself. Even if it did start firing lasers everywhere, Quinn was hoping he could overpower it. Moving its arm and pointing the laser at one of the doors making their exit out of the place.

In all honesty, he was a bit disappointed that it didn't start shooting lasers, because they still had the overall problem and struggle of finding a way out of the place.

"What were you thinking?" Layla said. "Did you want to keep the robot as a pet or something?" Layla's heart was still beating fast, seeing as she was a little startled.

Ever since her change, her emotions were a little higher-strung than usual but, being in the strange lab didn't exactly help things either. Now, instead, it looked like Cia was the one calming her down and giving her comfort, telling her to take deep breaths in and out slowly.

"There's a few reasons actually." Quinn replied. "First off, I was hoping to use the robot's laser to try and fry the door open. I know it probably won't work but we don't have many options. The second reason is we have no clue how many trials they are, nor if it will even lead us to getting out of this place to begin with.

"What we do know, is Mr. Tin here," Quinn said, slapping him on the head. "Has been giving us all the rewards, and I thought it would be a nice possible shortcut to the end. Maybe the last reward is a key."

Approaching the robot, Logan was greatly interested in it. He got Quinn to lay it on the floor and stand nearby in case there were any sudden surprises. As he went to place his hand on top of it, Logan hesitated for a second.

The Fear had gotten to him, the fear of failure. Perhaps, just like with everything else, there was nothing he could do.

His hand stayed a few inches above the robot's chest shaking, and Quinn noticed this too.

"What's wrong?" Quinn asked.

"What if I can't do it?" Logan said.

"Does that matter? It's not like any of us could do better. Don't you want to be better than Richard Eno?" Quinn asked. He had been around Logan long enough to know what spurred him on, and he needed a push to get back to his usual self. "Well here's your chance right. Everything in here belongs to him and it seems like you've already given up. You never thought it would be so easy as to just use your ability to beat him right?"

Thinking about Quinn's words, he knew he was right. For the first time ever, his ability hadn't worked on a machine and it had completely startled him, but others who didn't have this ability of his, still went on to do great things in the past. Was he nothing without his ability? No, he wasn't that type of person.

Placing his hand on the metal robot, he waited, but just like the terminal, he was unable to communicate with it. Although this time there seemed to be no response at all.

If he couldn't control it, then there were other ways of doing things. Using his spiders they started to form Logan's tool glove over his hand, and he got to work immediately, determined to prove that he could do something.

'If Richard Eno was able to make something like this, then I should at least be able to dismantle it!' Logan thought.

Unlike the terminal, if they were to dismantle it, it would give no such rewards. The software was the brains behind the operation on that. But here Logan could do work with his own two hands.

The others waited patiently, not wanting to make a sound so as to not disturb him, until finally.

*Click

After a few minutes, a clicking sound was heard and the front panel had finally opened. Inside, five different compartments could be seen. Slowly, one by one Logan took them out and laid them on the floor next to the robot for the others to see.

He had separated the items on the floor according to how he had found them inside the robot.

The first one was a single syringe and nothing more. The second compartment was completely empty. The third held a syringe and three red balls. The fourth, a syringe and five red balls, and the fifth, another syringe with five red balls.

Using his Inspect skill, Quinn could tell the balls were the same as before, only some of them gave different effects. One of the new ones he could see was a way to permanently increase one's stamina. The more he thought about what the balls were able to do, the more Quinn started to relate it all back to his system.

The balls were essentially a replacement for his different blood types. As for the syringes, they all had the same effect as the one Quinn had taken at the beginning of the second trial.

"I think it's safe to assume why the second compartment was empty. That's probably due to Quinn completing the second trial. The other compartments must be the rewards for the next three trials, making five in total. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to help us with our problem of getting out of here." Logan said. "But Quinn, are all these balls the same as the others?"

"Kind of." Quinn replied. "Some of them have different effects. Speed, strength and stamina, as for the green liquid effect, it's only temporary. It allows for a power boost for an hour. Although I have to be honest with you guys, the system revolves around me. Everything it tells me is based on what effect it will give me if I consume it.

"So I don't know if it will have the same effect on you, or if there are even side effects for you guys."

Grabbing the items, Logan placed it into one of the many special boxes he had brought along with him from his bag, and placed them all inside for safe keeping. "I think it's best if I take these for now. At some point perhaps I can look into how it will affect us, by that I mean the humans of the group… sorry Layla." He said, looking at the small little bumps on her head.

Unsure whether or not the rewards were worth it or, Quinn's quick-thinking plan had helped them, once again they were stuck in the same scenario as before.

Looking ahead at the six different doors, he started to wonder if there was a similar robot behind each of them. The Wendigo had given him a good amount of exp, and if he was to complete the trials, fairly this time, in the other rooms in turn, they would get the other rewards. They would give more green liquid as well as what Quinn would now refer to as Blood Pills.

In a tough pinch, the green liquid could be the turning point on whether or not he would win a fight in the future.

Perhaps, completing the trial and killing all the Wendigos would be enough exp to even level him up to the next stage.

'Trials One and Two were quite easy. I wonder if Trial Three would be similar. Would they all just increase the amount of creatures I have to face?' Quinn thought. 'If the fifth trial was just defeating five at one go, it would be a pretty easy job with his shadow and blood abilities to deal with them.'

Somewhere above the laboratory was a large, dark space. Not a single light source could be seen, but the sound of growling and howls was constantly heard. Inside the Wendigos would consistently and aimlessly wander around. Some didn't move at all while others bumped into each other as they walked past.

Aggressive creatures but no need to be aggressive towards each other.

But, in the corner of the large dark space, a pile of pale white bodies could be seen. However, they weren't human bodies. On top of the mound, it was too dark to see but a figure sat on top of it. The sound of chewing could be heard, then suddenly the chewing had stopped and another body was thrown onto the pile.

One of the Wendigos who continued to walk around, started to hover near the large pile of bodies. A few seconds later, it had disappeared and the chewing noises could be heard again.

Chapter 392 A way ou

After endless searching, it really did seem like there was no way out of the place. This wasn't what they were expecting at all to say the least when they thought of the vampire world. All being stuck in a strange Lab.

"Is this how we're going to die?" Cia thought, as she was wondering what she had gotten herself into, but just as she felt like she was about to sob her heart out, the lump in her throat had gone away and a refreshing feeling had entered her mind.

"You okay." Layla asked with a smile.

"Yes… Actually… much better." Cia replied.

Frustrated by the whole thing, Vorden was standing by one of the larger doors that was about as large as a van. He pulled out his black blade and started swinging at it, as hard as he could. He knew it was useless, but they didn't even know how long they had been in the room for and the fear of the unknown of what was going to happen to them started to settle in.

"Just…" *Bang "Open.." *Bang "This…" *Bang "Door!" He shouted.

Just moments later, after Vorden stopped hitting the door, several groans could be heard from above, screams from creatures and a bit of dirt from the ceiling fell.

They all stood in silence waiting for it to pass, and eventually, the groans stopped.

"Maybe it's not a good idea to do that, when there's a bunch of Wendigo's above us." Layla said.

The reason why they were all slightly frozen though was because of the amount of noise they could hear. It sounded as if a hundred people were up there at once, and the structure they were in looked well built. Yet for a brief second, they could hear the sounds of all their footsteps from above.

"Okay, that's it." Quinn said. "We need to do something. How about I start going into the other rooms? Maybe the trial will start again and we might find something different in the other rooms that can get us out of here."

"Do you think that's a good idea?" Vorden replied. "What if the trials don't restart and when you enter the other room, it starts from number three, and we don't even know if that will even happen? This place looks like it was used for experiments, right? Well, what do you do in an experiment to make it a fair test? You make them all the same but change one factor, not knowing what that factor could be dangerous."

"Well, it's either that or we stay here until we die, so I see we have no other choice." Quinn replied.

"… You have a point." Said Vorden.

With nothing else to do, Quinn headed over and stood in front of the second door. The others felt a little guilty that Quinn was put in this situation, but it was clear he was the strongest one out of them.

As Logan stood by the terminal, he was ready to press the button to open the door to the second room, but as soon as his finger crazed over the button. His ability started communicating with the terminal again. It still wasn't talking to him, but he could feel it. They had angered the computer greatly, and it wasn't going to treat them nicely if Quinn went into that room.

"Maybe it's not a good idea after all," Logan said, lifting his hand off the button. "It's hard to explain, but my ability showed me something. The way the machine is acting, it's like its human. I think it was annoyed by Quinn's actions from earlier. I don't think it will be putting you through normal trials anymore if you go in there. It might even override me here, shutting you in and never opening the door again."

This was something Quinn didn't like the sound of. Truthfully, he assumed that completing the trials wouldn't open the side doors and only amount to more rewards and the possibility of levelling up. However, the risk and reward just weren't worth it.

Walking around, Quinn stood back outside door one and started to think. "Those Wendigos came from above right, and we all heard them up there. Which means they have to be coming from somewhere, right?"

"You can't be thinking of trying to go up there?" Layla asked. "Did you hear how many they were, even for you, that would just mean death."

Quinn shook his head. "Not up there, but I was thinking. Every time a trial started, what happened right at the beginning? It would always drop a severed arm. Only then, would it drop the Wendigos in after. Which means the human body parts and the wendigos are stored in two different places. I mean, if they were to put it together all the food would be gone. Maybe if we go up there, we can find something."

"And how do we get in the room?" Cia asked.

"I have an idea."

Once again with his finger hovered over the button Logan was ready, and so was Quinn by the original first door. While Vorden stood by the robot. Logan had said it had been deactivated by himself, but it was better to be extra safe. The two gave a nod to each other, signalling they were ready.

As Logan pushed the button, the door opened up again. Then instead of entering the room, Quinn decided to stand directly in front of its path. A short time had passed, and the door tried to close.

"Maybe I can't break the doors, but I'm pretty sure I'm strong enough to stop you from closing." Using both hands, Quinn pushed against the door, pushing it back into its slot. It wasn't as hard as he thought, but at the same time, it wasn't easy either.

"Can you hold it?" Vorden asked.

"Yeah, I should be good for a good while." Quinn replied.

All of the group apart from Logan then ventured into the room from before. The robot hadn't activated, and a trial hadn't started like the times before, which was a good sign.. Just in case anything happened though, Logan would stay outside.

"Do you remember where the arm dropped from?" Layla asked.

"It was right here." Vorden said, as he went ahead and tried to cut the square ceiling directly above where the arm had fallen from. At first nothing happened, but the ceiling panel had slightly moved.

He tried again a few times and… then success. The panel had been slashed in half, falling to the floor, but with it. Small amounts of blood had dripped down and fell onto Vorden's cheeks.

"Yuck!" He shouted.

The group allowed the blood to drip from above a little, and when it finally seemed to stop; they looked up. To them it just looked like a dark hole, unsure whether it led to a room, or how the arm even came down to them in the first place.

"How did you know the ceiling might not be made of Glathrium?" Layla asked Quinn, who was still holding the door back.

"It was when Vorden did his little act earlier. Glathrium is extremely rare and hard to mold, so some of it might not be pure like the doors. But when part of the ceiling had crumbled and fell into the room earlier, I checked it out with my inspect skill. Turns out it wasn't a hundred percent Glathrium. The problem was, I wasn't going to go and start blasting the ceiling, possibly dropping hundreds of wendigos on top of us. If the ceiling in there wasn't pure Glathrium, then maybe here it wasn't either."

They all continued to look at the hole above them, each just staring at it, wondering what was up there.

"Can someone please hurry up and go in!" Quinn complained. "This is tiring you know."

"Oh, I thought Vorden was going to go in?" Layla said.

"So did I." Cia replied.

"Why, me, aren't you the one with the magic powers now?" Vorden replied.

An angry look appeared on her face, but she didn't say anything, and Cia too was staring Vorden down..

"Fine…" Vorden replied as he looked up at the hole in the ceiling. "Here we go."

Chapter 393 Hundred Bodies

The ceiling from the floor wasn't too high, however, it was lucky that Vorden was quite a tall person. Standing up, he was able to reach the ceiling if he raised his hand with his sword. With a little jump, he could perform an attack while doing so as well. This was how he was able to break the panel in the first place.

Still, he needed a little assistance from the two girls to push him up so he could pull himself inside. Since both Logan and Quinn were busy right now, that only left him with two options.

Right now, Vorden was standing on top of the girls carefully, he had one foot on the top of each shoulder, like a cheerleader, spreading his weight.

"Vorden, how much do you weigh!" Layla said, struggling.

"I never thought, small girls like us would be doing this, shouldn't it be the other way round?" Cia said as she tried her best to keep still, otherwise, he would be off balance.

"Will you two stop complaining." Vorden snapped back at them. "This is the least you can do, unless you guys want to stick your head first, into a creepy dark whole that you just saw a couple of severed arms fall from. Oh, and let's not forget the 'HUMAN EATING' Flesh monsters that are above us as well."

From that point onward, the two girls stopped complaining. Vorden carefully first placed his hand onto one of the other panels for a few seconds and then brought it back down again.

'Okay, nothing bit my fingers, that's good, right?'

He then did the same thing again, but tried to yank on the panel quite hard, seeing if it would fall when he pulled himself up. But it was pretty sturdy and he decided it should be safe.

The girls watching this wanted to say something, because they felt like Vorden was taking extra long, and wasn't sure if he was now doing this on purpose as a form of payback.

Finally, he took the plunge and using both hands, pulled his body up. He was unsure whether or not he would be able to fully stand, so he stayed low for a little bit. But when he looked ahead. There were a few light sources here and there across the walls, all blue in colour. They allowed him to see the whole area he was in.

Standing up fully on his two legs, he quickly realised he was in some type of cave. Above it was quite a large empty space and on the side, the small lights could be seen. Looking at the hole he had just climbed up from, there was a conveyor belt leading up to it, and the small lights also went along the way, leading to a different area of the cave.

When turning around, the Conveyor belt looked as it pathed off into the first room. It then carried on going into what looked like a hole which Vorden would have only been able to fit through if he was to crawl.

'Perhaps they lead to the other rooms? Maybe all the trials are the same in each room. The changing factor being the participants themselves.'

Looking in front at the other path, it looked a lot more friendly, as there was no need for Vorden to crouch and he could simply just walk. But the conveyor belt took a turn around the corner where he was unable to see anything up ahead.

"Are we underground? I don't like it, I remember what happened last time we were underground." Vorden said while drawing both of his blades, ready for any type of beast to come running around the corner any second now.

"What do you see!" Layla shouted, when the noise entered through the hole, it started to echo and bounce off the cave walls.

Putting his head back through the whole, from the side the conveyor belt wasn't on, Vorden replied.

"I think we're underground. It looks like some type of cave, but there's a pathway that's been built. I'll go ahead and follow it to see if there's a way out, or if a way back round to you guys. If there is one, I'll come back."

The reason why Vorden wasn't too afraid to travel on his own was because, like Quinn said, it seemed like this part of the cave was perhaps separated from the others, due to placing the food in one area and the rest in another. Also, when Layla shouted, if there was anything here, her voice would have caused some reaction from the creatures. After all, they had sensitive hearing, at least the wendigos did. But Vorden didn't want to think about anything else that was hiding up here.

Following the conveyor belt, Vorden could see that there were blood marks on it. He carried on, until eventually, the cave led him around the corner and then finally; he had entered an even bigger cavern. This one was a huge empty site, and it looked like another facility all together was situated in there.

If he continued on to follow the conveyor belt, it eventually led him inside the large warehouse looking factory. There were now two pathways, Vorden could either choose to go around the warehouse or go through it. When trying to look closer to see where they both went, it seemed like the final destination was the same.

The one thing that was on the plus side was that, just like in the science lab, the entire area looked to have been untouched for many years. The metal was slightly rusted, and covered in dust and dirt from the ceiling above.

"What are you doing, you wimp!" Raten suddenly said. "Were you just about to go around the warehouse! Go look inside, you might find something useful."

Vorden wasn't stupid. He knew what had come out of the conveyor belt, or most likely, he knew what was inside the warehouse as well. However, Raten did bring up a good point, and perhaps it would help them leave this place. Walking back, he went to the double doors on the side of the warehouse, and braced himself as he walked in.

In an instant, a strange smell had hit him in the face, and it reminded him of when he was in the trial room on his own. Not only that, but the smell was around ten times stronger. Afraid to even think, he first looked straight ahead, and all he could see was a path leading to the other door.

From the corner of his eyes, he could see several terminals along the side, and then another path, leading to somewhere else. He couldn't help it, and his urges got the better of him as he turned his head to look to his left, to see what looked like a complete horror show.

In what looked like a large square glass container, around a 100 bodies could be seen piled on top of each other. Everything was intact, but it was clear that they were dead. But how long for? He had no idea.

"How many people did they kill?" Vorden thought.

"I think you're thinking about the wrong thing." Raten interrupted. "If there's that many bodies then that's a lot of food, and if they need that much food, how many Wendigo's do you think they have?"

Suddenly, a mechanical sound could be heard, as if the machine's in the room had just turned on.

'What's going on?'

Inside the large glass container, suspended above was a claw like machine. It went down into the pile of bodies and picked one up. Shortly after, it moved to beyond where he could see and dropped the body.

'I don't like what's happening.'

Back inside the first trial room, everyone was waiting patiently for Vorden to return back with some good news. Him taking a long time was possibly a good sign, but at the same time they could take it as a bad sign as well.

Then, while Quinn was at the door, it no longer kept on trying to push back against him. For a second he thought maybe it had given up. Then the next thing he knew, the door came out again trying to slam into him. But he was ready and fast at pushing it back again. The door continually kept on doing this, as if it was trying to ram Quinn of the thing.

"This thing is clearly annoying. What the hell is it doing?!" Quinn said, as it was starting to hurt a little, as the door constantly hit him.

The two girls started to laugh at the sight, as it did look a little comical. If it was any type of situation, then perhaps Quinn would have complained, but he thought it was nice to see them laugh, even if it was at his own expense. It had been tough for all of them since they had arrived in this place.

*Thud.

The loud sound of something dropping and hitting the floor caused the girls to immediately stop. It was covered in the usual black rag that they had seen on the screen before.

Usually, what followed after the hand was the Wendigos. Three panels from above had opened, and at the same time, three of them dropped from the ceiling.

"I hate it when I'm right!" Quinn said.

Chapter 394 A Horde

Seeing the strange claw machine move, Vorden had a good guess of what was going on. He was in a state of panic.

Should I go back and try to help the others? Maybe it's best if I try to find an exit quickly. After all, we could be going up against a whole army.' It was hard for him to make up his mind.

'Quinn, you can protect them all, right?' Vorden could trust Quinn's strength, especially after seeing how easily he dealt with two of them. Even if a whole army came down, most likely Quinn and the others were able to hold them off for some time.

What was important was to try to find a way out of here, so that they didn't have to risk fighting any more. And with that thought, Vorden dashed towards the other door, exiting out of the warehouse. He carried heading down one of the paths hoping to find a way out, now moving faster than ever.

Still needing to hold the door back, Quinn did the only thing he could as soon as he saw one of the Wendigos. With one hand he held the door as it continued to barge him, and with the other, he swung it out, performing a blood swipe.

However, just as he did, the door had barged into him once again, and had slightly nudged him, causing his aim to be slightly off. As one of the Wendigo's stood up, the swipe continued and had completely cut through one of the Wendigo's arm's causing it to fall to the floor.

It screamed and howled in pain. Its attention had moved from the girls, and was now focusing on Quinn.

Unable to move his hand freely while giving it the most power possible, it caused his attack to be weaker than usual. Still, it seemed like it was strong enough to deal with the Wendigos.

It only took a few seconds before the Wendigo's arm had regrown, it was an amazing sight and Quinn thought that it was probably faster then Peter's regenerative healing speed.

He didn't have time to admire that though.

"Girls move!" Quinn shouted.

As he could see the two girls stuck in the middle, about to be trapped from both sides by the other two that had fallen, but he was more concerned about something else right now.

Now, using both hands to hold the door back, he wasn't being nudged as much. Then he threw out a front kick as straight as he could.

'Blood crescent kick!'

A vertical line came out from his leg that was too fast for the wendigo to react and had completely sliced the creature in half. The attack didn't stop there and continued moving forward, right where the two girls were moving nervously. As soon as they moved though, one of the Wendigos had come quicker than the other.

Their movements caused it to leap at the two girls that were coming their way. Holding out her hands, Layla did the only thing she could do. Cia was shaking with fear. She was scared before, but now with the creatures directly in front of her she didn't know how to act, but this was perfect.

Layla could use this energy and was now confident in her own skills. She had tried multiple times to use the ability on her own, but still, she hadn't gotten the hang of it where she could do so on demand. Often it would be a fifty-fifty chance. But with Cia along for the ride, it didn't matter.

"Spiritual chain!" Layla shouted, and the black ball came outward. It hit the Wendigo, dead on in midair, and black chains wrapped around the beast in less than a second. At the same time, Quinn's attack that had carried on going forward had arrived at the perfect time slicing the creature's head off.

Now there was only one Wendigo left, and the person closest to it was Cia. After Layla had used her ability, the fear that had taken over her body and heart started to settle. She didn't know why, but now she was a lot more calm and knew what she needed to do. She started to throw multiple spears into the Wendigo, slowing it down as much as possible.

Layla then turned and drew her bow, but before she could even fire, the Wendigo's head was already cut off and it had fallen to the floor. All she could see was Quinn smiling behind it, still being pushed by the door.

*Clang *Clang *Clang

"Hey can you hear me!" Vorden shouted.

Logan, who had stayed by the terminal, could hear a voice from his side. He then noticed that it was coming from the large door on his left. It was one of the exits from the Lab.

"Vorden!" Logan said.

"I didn't find an exit yet, but I found a way to this door. There are too many tunnels, I think it's best if we go together. Especially if the exit from this place leads to here, anyway." Vorden continued to say.

As Logan was just about to reply, the steam sound used to open the doors had interrupted him. As he turned his head, he could see that all of the other doors to the six other rooms had opened.

"This can't be good." Logan said. "Vorden, stay there. We'll come meet you."

While running to the first room, Logan could see multiple things that were dropping in from the ceiling into the other rooms. They could no longer stay here, and he was unsure if they could even come back. It was best if they left now.

"We have to go, start climbing through the hole, they are coming down from the other rooms." Logan said as soon as he entered the room. Quinn then let go of the door, and it had completely stopped trying to hit him.

Listening to Logan, Quinn quickly threw the girls up into the hole one by one, and then Logan shortly after. He could now see the Wendigo's enter the large lab that they were in.

Using all his strength, he was able to jump quite high and grab on to the hole, pulling himself up.

"Come on, follow me!" Layla said, as she was able to see better than the others. The light certainly helped, but without Layla or Quinn leading the way, they would have probably crashed or bumped into some of the walls on the way.

Although Quinn was faster than everyone else, he chose to stay at the back of the group, in case any of the Wendigos had caught up with them. But just as they were about to turn around the corner, he looked back, allowing the others to continue running ahead.

'They are not following us, can they not jump up that high?' Quinn thought. But that couldn't be it. The creatures were tall and powerful, something like his should have been easy for them.

With nothing following them, Quinn went to try and catch up with the others. When he managed to see the large warehouse, he entered the double doors, only to see the group staring at something. When he turned his head, he noticed they were looking at the glass container with all the dead bodies.

"Come on." Logan said. "We can't do anything about it now. We can think about it later, let's keep moving or they might catch up soon."

Quinn knew that wasn't true, but he too was unsure what they were planning and wanted to leave as soon as possible. There was only one tunnel from the warehouse, and it eventually started to head downwards, until finally it opened up to a large space again.

Now there were a few different tunnels splitting into multiple directions. Each lit up with small blue lights along the way. The blue lights, and being underground, started to remind Quinn of the orange portal planet, when he had discovered the blue crystals in the cave as well.

"You guys made it!" Vorden said, leaving the metal shutter type door and coming over to the group. "I could hear some noises coming from the other side and I was starting to get a little worried." He said laughing nervously.

"Where do we go now?" Layla asked. There were three tunnels in total, one of which they had come from, and then two situated opposite the large metal shutter door.

"I don't know." Vorden replied. "That's why I thought it was best to call you guys. If this is the exit from the lab anyway, even if you managed to open the doors we would just be in the same position."

Just as they were about to decide where to go, a loud bang was heard..

*BANG *BANG *BANG BANG

The banging was coming from the metal shutter, and it repeated itself multiple times, as if a horde of zombies was banging up against the shutter.

"They can't get through that, right?" Layla asked. "It's made of Glathrium."

Quinn certainly knew he didn't have the strength to break it, so he was quite confident. But then all the little bangs suddenly stopped.

*B A N G

A loud noise was made, bigger than all of the others before it.. It had startled the group. When looking up at the shutter a large dent could be seen.

Whatever had made that impact, it clearly wasn't one of the wendigos and they didn't want to stay and find out either.

Chapter 395 A new type

The huge dent that could be seen in the shutter was worrying everyone. It was clear that it was the doing of a single creature, and the sudden stop in the Wendigo's noise also made it apparent there was something far stronger than them in there.

"Over here!" Quinn said, deciding that they had to make a choice, left tunnel or right tunnel. No one cared as long as they could get away from whatever was about to chase after them.

The entire group had entered the left tunnel, but none of them was as fast as Quinn himself, and he was trying his best to hold back his speed for the others. The only one that could keep up a little was Vorden. He always had been naturally athletic, and it seemed like his long legs helped him greatly in this situation.

Then Cia, who was falling behind the others, suddenly felt a rock caught on her foot as she tripped and fell to the ground.

"Come on!" Layla said, lending a hand picking her up off the ground.

The flooring wasn't exactly smooth. Although the cave looked to be carved and man-made, it was left untreated and there were now many bumps that had grown from below and above. It made it even harder by the fact of how dark it was.

As they continued to run, it seemed like there was no end in sight, and then Quinn had picked up something with his sensitive ears. Although they had run a good distance away from the shutter, in the cave-like area, loud sounds would often bounce, and his ears were highly sensitive.

A loud scraping noise was heard, followed by a few clangs. It was clear that the creature had managed to break the Glathrium door somehow. Straight after that, cries and shrieks followed and the sound of hundreds of footsteps were heard coming after them. The Wendigos were now free.

Knowing this, Quinn didn't want to frighten the others even more. If they focused just on running, perhaps they would fumble and fall even more now.

"Come on, keep going, I can see something up ahead. Quinn lied, but it was the encouragement they needed.

The sound of the Wendigos footsteps were getting louder by the second. Quinn knew they were faster than them, and it would only be a matter of time before they caught up.

Just in case he decided to slow down and head to the back of the group. Logan had made a note of this move, and he had a good idea of what was going on.

After running a bit further, there still was nothing ahead, and the others could only guess what Quinn had said wasn't true. Then a few moments later, the sound coming down from the tunnel could be heard by everyone. Still, it was hard to tell how close they truly were.

"Just keep going, don't look back. If they come near, I'll deal with them." Quinn shouted, and the others did just that.

Occasionally turning around once in a while, Quinn was waiting to see them pop into his view. He turned and ran. He kept on running and then, they finally came. There were too many to count, and only so many could fit through the tunnel at one time. He had no clue how many were in the hoard.

What surprised him most though, was that the Wendigos were even climbing up on the sides and the ceiling of the tunnel, on all fours. There was one in front of the entire pack that was above. Seeing this, Quinn paused and threw a blood swipe directly above. Slicing off its legs and causing it to fall to the ground, its legs soon started to heal, but that didn't matter. For the others behind continued to run forward, trampling over the fallen creature.

"Get back!" Quinn shouted as he threw out a few crescent blood kicks, but the distance between them was still great, and somehow most of them managed to move by scaling the walls in certain areas. If the attack did hit, they were able to stop it from hitting their vitals.

"I see something!" Layla said. "Up ahead."

It looked like a true exit really was in sight for them all. Hoping to slow them down, Quinn directed one of his blood swipes at the cave wall, hoping it would collapse. Even though it had caused a deep groove, it didn't have much effect, due to how thick the cave walls were.

Finally, as Vorden rushed ahead towards the tunnel exit, he thought perhaps there would be freedom, but instead, he paused for a brief second looking around him. The tunnel had led to what could only be described as a bridge, linking to another tunnel at the other end.

The bridge didn't have anything below holding it, and from the side there was no telling how deep it was. As the other's joined him, they had done the same by looking around.

"Keep moving, it will hold our weight, don't worry." Logan said. "It was used before, can't you see, the sides still have the Blue lights."

Logan continued forward ahead of everyone else, and the rest of the group soon followed. As they got up to the half-way point, Quinn was still a little behind everyone else and had only just arrived at the start of the bridge.

"Quinn, hurry up!" Vorden shouted.

Picking up speed, Quinn zoomed ahead to the centre and turned around again.

"You guys keep going, I think I can get rid of a good chunk of them on this bridge. I'll slow them down as much as possible and I promise I'll catch up."

Vorden wanted to argue a case, telling him to come with them, but seeing the girls and the others, huffing and panting, he knew they were slowing down. Eventually, they would be caught if Quinn didn't do anything.

As they were starting to gather on the bridge, Quinn threw out a blood swipe after blood swipe knocking many of the wendigos off the bridge. However, some were able to crawl underneath and started to make their way to the center, trying to attack them. But Quinn was strong, knocking them away and off with a single strike.

Another group of them came towards him, and with his palm open, he started to shoot out the blood spray, knocking them back and a couple off the edges into the never ending dark pit.

Still, using the blood ability was taking up his life force and he would need a better solution soon. The only good thing was some of the Wendigos were dying in the process giving him a good amount of exp, but it didn't seem like all the ones that were falling off the bridge had the same effect.

Finally, the group had reached the end of the bridge and was at the entrance of the tunnel.

"What about Quinn?" Layla asked as she turned around and saw him fighting the Wendigos.

"He'll… be okay," Vorden said hesitatingly.

Then something strange started to happen.

"Look!" Cia pointed. "They're heading back."

The wendigos were no longer pushing forward and instead started to slowly crawl back to the entrance, but then they made way, making sure not to block the path. A Lot of them then proceeded to curl up into balls and if one was to look close enough, a slight shiver could be seen.

There was only one time when Quinn had seen a similar action happen before and that was when the King tier beast appeared under ground.

A large footstep was heard, and out from the shadow they could now all see what had the other Wendigos all startled. It was a beast that looked similar to them, but a bit different at the same time.

Its body was pale, just like theirs, only wider and larger in size. It's forearms were longer, and at the end it had three claw-like fingers that stretched out about half a meter long. Its arms laid there by its side, and its fingertips scraped across the floor. Its eyes looked completely dead.

As soon as Quinn saw it he knew he was in trouble because the system had reacted. A ding in his ear was heard and the notification screen in front of him appeared.

[Quest granted]

[Defeat the Boneclaw]

[Rewards ??????]

[Optional quest: Become the Boneclaw's new Master]

Although he didn't really understand the details of the optional quest, he knew the only time when it didnt specify the reward meant it would be a tough battle ahead of them.

Quinn looked back at the others, he could see their worried faces, then he looked at all the Wendigos and the Boneclaw in front of him.

"Guys!" Quinn shouted. "Exit from this place, try to find as much information about Fex and Peter as you can, and wait for me. I'll see you there."

As the Boneclaw and the Wendigo's got closer towards the centre of the Platform, Quinn stomped his foot hard on the ground, and punched downward performing the Hammer strike.

The area he had punched was the thinnest part of the bridge, and in nearly an instant, the impact had caused the bridge to collapse and fall.

The other slowly watched Quinn, the Boneclaw and the wendigo's fall into the dark pit.

Chapter 396 Freedom!

The entire group had seen everything, and it was the last thing that they expected to happen. The long thin bridge that connected the two tunnels had completely broken and the strange large creature with the army of wendigos had fallen into the deep dark pit.

'Quinn, surely there was a better way than that!' Vorden said as he looked down in the dark hole. Still not being able to even see the bottom.

Not all of the Wendigos had fallen when the bridge broke, as there were still many on the other side. they continued to snarl and shout while looking at the others. While standing partly on the broken bridge and some inside the tunnel.

One of the Wendigos ran forward and used what little part of the bridge there was before it tried leaping with all of its power.

It managed to gain quite a height and distance, but it only managed to reach the halfway point, before falling down into the bottomless pit. After seeing this, a few of the other wendigos attempted to do the same, but all of them ended in the same result. A while later they could tell that there was no way to get to the other side and started to leave, heading back into the tunnel.

It seemed, they had at least some instincts.

Once they had left, the growls and cries had stopped and no longer echoed, it had quietened down and the group could hear their own thoughts. With this, Vorden went to grab a small stone from inside the tunnel. He peaked over the edge and let go, dropping the stone. The group waited and waited as the stone fell, but no sound was heard.

Clenching his fist and closing his eyes, Vorden could only hope Quinn was okay.

"It's a big drop, but it doesn't mean he's dead." Logan said, as he knew what they were all thinking and what Vorden was trying to do with his little test. If they were to hear a sound when the rock reached the bottom. Then it would give them an idea of how far the drop down was, but they had heard nothing.

"He's not dead." Layla said with confidence as she placed her hand across her chest and closed her eyes. "The connection I can still feel it, he's alive. We should do what he said, try to find a way out here, and meet him outside when we can."

Layla's words managed to cheer up both Logan and Vorden. They knew she wouldn't lie about something like this. If Quinn was dead, then she would probably be on her knees sobbing and the fact she wasn't doing that gave the two of them confidence.

"Do you think he can get out?" Cia asked.

Looking at the broken bridge, it was their only way to the strange base, and Logan started to think if there was any way they would be able to return to it in the future. "This place is quite grand and large and considering it was used as a facility at one point, it's quite possible there is more than one exist." Logan explained. "Remember, there were two tunnels to choose from. We haven't run into any other pathways when we were running down so we can guess the other tunnel leads somewhere else. Also back at the lab where we started. Apart from the six doors for the trials, there were also the two large shutter doors on either side. Most likely there is more than one way to get there."

Still, even if there were multiple exits, if one was to get back to the lab, they would have an army of creatures to deal with. Before the group set off, Vorden looked down the pit one more time, as the image of the Boneclaw was pictured in his head. "I hope those things are dead, especially the big boy, and not with you down there Quinn, good luck."

Carefully, the group continued to walk through the tunnels, and they were now travelling in pairs. Vorden stuck at the front with Logan. With his equipment, he was able to see and lead the way, and Vorden would be his type of body to guard if anything was to come out. While Cia and Layla stayed at the back. Using Layla's ability to see in the night.

They were quite confident no more creatures would come from behind and attack since the bridge was broken, so this formation was designed by keeping both Layla and Cia in mind. Being ranged and support types, they could help out wherever possible. Due to her vampire sub class, Layla didn't have the things that Quinn did, such as super strength, speed and so on. However, her powers also didn't really depend on Quinn like Peter, but instead on her own emotions and Cia's next to her.

Proceeding cautiously through the tunnel, they slightly jumped a few times, form strange noises, but most of it was just a water drip from above, or someone kicking a stone across the floor.

Cia seemed to be continually praying along the way, as she felt frightened, but every so often that would go away, and Layla standing next to her would feel satisfied. Still, looking at Cia, she really did seem like a different person compared to what she was before.

Cia was a cocky, confident girl. 'Was it all because of the Pure training, can it really change a person that much?' Seeing this, Layla started to think back to Erin again. If Cia had changed this much from forgetting everything to do with Pure. How much did Erin change after learning everything about Pure?

Gripping her bow tightly, she remembered her resolve. She hadn't only come on this trip to save Fex and Peter or help Quinn out, but it was for herself. To grow her skills and get stronger so she could save Erin one day.

The path never split off, and it continued straight. They still walked, but it finally looked like something could be seen ahead. It was still dark, but a little bit of it was clear enough that it was different compared to the whole cave. Not just that, but it looked like the blue lights stopped ahead as well.

Then they started to feel the wind breeze up ahead and a smile appeared across all of their faces.

"That's the exit, right? I'm right, that's the exit, yeah!" Cia said excitedly.

The group was now naturally walking faster than before without even realising it. The idea of getting out of this place was urging their tired and weak legs to walk faster and then finally, they had stepped out of the cave and were all fully outside.

Cia and Layla, who were the most tired, immediately fell to the ground, as they rested their bodies. While the two boys started to look around, taking in the scenery they were at and where they had just come from. The sky was dark and two moons could be seen in front glowing.

It allowed them to see without the need for night vision equipment, but it was still dark outside. However, it made one thing clear, that they were definitely no longer on earth. In front of them, just out of the cave entrance, was a dark forest. The tree's looked dead, but on a closer inspection, their leaves just weren't green in colour like they were used to, and instead were a light grey in colour.

The forest blocked most of their vision, so they weren't able to see beyond, as they looked behind them, to see what they had just exited from, it appeared they were inside a fairly large mountain this whole time.

"Maybe if we climb up the mountain a bit, we can see where we are and what's around us." Logan said.

"What already," Layla complained. "Can't we have a brief rest before moving?"

Honestly, Logan didn't think it was a good idea. They were in an unknown place, and by the edge of the forest. Who knew what creatures remained here.

"Don't worry." Vorden said. "I'll go, you look after the equipment and protect the girls."

"Then take this." Logan said as a spider ran down his sleeve and hopped onto Vorden's shoulder. "When he comes back, I can see what you saw."

The mountain wasn't too steep, and although there wasn't a direct pathway. Vorden was able to scale it with ease. Before climbing, he looked at it for a little while and had chosen the best path. It was all in his head as his foot pushed off from one platform to the other until eventually he was in a high enough place and stopped.

"Wasn't his ability just to copy others?" Logan thought. "He has a lot of skill."

"He reminds me of a ninja." Cia said.

While on the top, Vorden looked out from the platform over the forest outward at their position. The forest was large, but it didn't look like it went on for too far. But past the forest, it looked like they could see what they were looking for. lights were shining from the vampire settlement, and a giant castle stood at the end, surrounded by seven castles on each side.

His heart started to thump louder and louder, looking at the place. It was a beauty, a sight to behold, and soon they would be making their way there.

Chapter 397 The Boneclaw

The sound of water dripping could be heard constantly falling into a large lake. Each time it fell, a ripple would spread out. Floating in the pool of water, several bodies could be seen, bobbing up and down in the water. Some on their fronts with their head stuck in the water, some on their back. One of these bodies... was Quinn, lying on his back. His body continued drifting away, unaware of what was happening.

Then suddenly, a large object came crashing down from above in the pool of water, causing waves that pushed Quinn's body off to the side until it had eventually caught on a piece of the cave flooring. His body pressed downward on the floor, with his cheek on the hard and cold surface.

Slowly, his eyes started to open, unable to see the sight around him clearly, yet he could still feel the cold water on his legs as his bottom half was still submerged.

'I'm… I'm.. alive?' Quinn thought, but the thoughts came slowly as if he couldn't quite piece things together.

However, what little he could see was blocked by a notification screen and he managed to make out a few of the messages he had received.

[You have received critical damage]

[Your health is falling]

[9/95 HP]

[8/95 HP]

Clearing the messages away, Quinn was trying to see what was around him, but his body felt like it had been completely shattered. There was no telling how high the fall was from, and perhaps if he hadn't landed in a pool of water he would have no longer been alive to tell the tale.

Still, even if he couldn't move, he tried to look around. All he could see near him were a few of the Wendigo's bodies who had also wound up on this part of the cave flooring. Some of them had missed the pool of water and were no longer moving, while another that wasn't too far away from Quinn, was starting to crawl his way to him.

It's leg's had been smashed, but they were regenerating, and with its long skinny arms, it pulled itself across the floor inching its way closer.

"ArgH!!!!" It screamed, and then it started to pick up speed.

"I will not... die... here!" Quinn shouted, but he was far too weak to move. Then the Wendigo's body stopped moving. With his vision still blurry, it was hard to make out what had happened, but it looked like something had stabbed it through its head. And a few seconds later its head had fallen to the floor.

Seeing this, at this moment, Quinn's eyes went to black again.

[5/95 HP]

[Auto activating blood bank]

[100 millilitres of blood has been consumed]

[Regenerating]

A certain amount of time had passed, but it was hard to tell how long. This time as Quinn regained consciousness, he could see a lot better. He shook his head and slowly lifted himself out of the water as he tried to remember what happened. When he was hurt, he wasn't able to think straight; it had not only affected his vision, but his mind as well. The blood bank had luckily healed him up using it automatically.

[55/95 HP]

There was still a 100 millilitres of blood left to be used, just in case of emergencies, and Quinn would keep that for now. He wasn't hungry for blood, and he should have healed enough for it to start eating naturally on its own over time.

He started looking around him, and he could see that the twenty or so wendigos that had fallen with him were now dead. However, he started to notice something strange. Although some of them had died from falling, not all of them did.

The memory of one coming after him was appearing in his head. As he walked around and took a look, Quinn could see that a lot of the Wendigos' heads had been sliced off.

'What happened to them?'

The large cut made it look like whatever was able to kill them was able to do so with ease. It was also a clean strike. Quinn started to twist his head around in different directions as if he was looking for something, but he couldn't see it anywhere. When they were on that bridge, there was a large new creature they hadn't seen before, called the Boneclaw.

Quinn was sure it had fallen down with him, but looking around, he couldn't find traces of it anywhere. 'Did it sink into the water, or maybe it left me alone because it thought I was dead?' Quinn thought.

When on that Bridge Quinn knew what he was doing, he wasn't just being reckless. As he attacked the Wendigos on the bridge and they fell into the pit, around half of them he gained exp from. Meaning they had fallen and died. As for the others that fell, he gained nothing.

There was a good chance that Quinn would survive and knowing his body was several times stronger than the wendigos, it was the only thing he could think of at the time, hopefully also dealing with the big Boneclaw as well.

Still, the mystery of the disappearing Boneclaw and the cut up wendigos wasn't of his concern.. What was more important to him right now, was finding a way out. Standing by the pool of water, Quinn looked up to see if he could possibly see the bridge from up high, but there was nothing.

He needed to find another way out. Looking around, there were a few tunnels that looked like they led somewhere, but unlike the ones above which had blue lights leading the way. These had none, suggesting they were not man-made paths. However, there were some blue crystals stuck into the wall on the other side of the pool of water, which lit up the place quite nicely.

Before going, Quinn went to brush some water over his face. He was just about to until he saw all the dead wendigo's in the water.

'Maybe that's not a good idea.'

As he looked down into the water though, he spotted his own reflection coming off it. A panic set in seeing this, when looking at his own face, he could see something over his shoulder too.

Quickly, he twisted his body, turning around, while throwing out his fist, hoping to hit the creature. But his fist carried on going forward as it hit nothing but air, and his whole body spun around.

A fighting stance had been taken and his eyes started to dart around the room, yet there was nothing, apart from him and the dead wendigo's body.

'But I saw it, the Boneclaw was right there in the reflection.'

Sure that he wasn't going crazy. He started to look around the area again, seeing if he could see it anywhere but still nothing. Returning to the pool of water, Quinn gulped before looking down again. And there it was, staring right back at him at his own face, but by his side the Boneclaw as well.

Turning his head again, there was nothing there, turning back to look at the reflection: the Boneclaw was there again.

Still afraid that it might all be a trick, Quinn punched the reflection in the water, causing large waves to crash, as the water slowly filled back up and started to settle, he could see the reflection once again and it was still there over his shoulder.

'Seriously, am I going crazy!'

Trying to look out of the corner of his eye, he went to see if it was there, but still nothing. It was clear that the Boneclaw only could be seen when looking in the reflection.

A thought came into his head, about the optional quest that had come at the time. Also, the notifications that appeared that he got rid of. Maybe the answers were in there.

[Status]

[32890/51200 exp]

Killing around twenty or so of the wendigos had given him a nice amount of exp, but that wasn't what he was trying to find right now.

However, if the Boneclaw had died in the fall, then surely he would have at least levelled up from it.

That's when he spotted something strange by his name, something he never thought he would see.

[Familiar: Boneclaw]

"Bring up past notifications," Quinn ordered.

He could see the Blood bank being activated, and him losing health, but before that he could see it. Next to it was a congratulations message.

[Quest failed]

[Defeat the bone claw]

[Congratulations]

[Optional quest has been completed]

[Become the Boneclaw's new master]

[Quest reward]

[You have obtained Boneclaw as your familiar]

Chapter 398 The Boneclaw's Master

Looking at his status, Quinn was at a loss for words. It was an understatement to say that he was shocked. He truly didn't understand what was going on at all, and there were far too many questions he needed to ask and answered at once. Somehow, he had managed to complete an optional quest, and all of this was done while he was passed out in the water.

'How is that possible, what happened?'

Trying hard to think back at any possibilities, there really was nothing that he could think of. Even if the Boneclaw had been defeated by the sudden fall, then why wasn't the first quest complete, and what even were the conditions to become the Boneclaw's master? Luckily, there was one person with him who could probably answer his questions.

Although he wasn't heavily relying on him for help, because there were many times he had failed him before.

"Okay, I guess I should start with a simple question first." Quinn said, looking and staring at his status screen. What's a familiar?

"I thought, you started to hate me because you hadn't talked to me in so long." The system replied. "Well, I can safely say that we are in my domain now. So any questions you have on this type of topic I can freely give you all the information you need." It said in a cheery voice..

Although Quinn did not look entertained, as he remembered the image of the horrible Boneclaw, it was still sending small shivers down his spine as he thought about it.

"A familiar is a vampire's companion. Think of it like a little pet. They do whatever their masters wish for. Their life force is now linked together with yours. But some stronger familiars do have a will of their own. So do not confuse that with complete control. Just because their life is linked with yours does not mean it will do what you say. However, it does mean that they will do everything in their power to protect you. Usually..."

"If a familiar dies, it doesn't really die either. It's just temporarily out of use as it takes a while for it to reform, and later on it can be used again. The only way to kill a familiar is to kill its owner. Usually, a marking, or an item of some sort can be used to keep this on your person. Do you remember the earring Fex wore? That to was his own familiar."

It certainly sounded like so far there were no downsides to having a familiar, apart from it not being completely under Quinn's control, but it seemed like the pros outweighed the cons.

"Does every vampire have a familiar?" Quinn asked.

"No," The system replied. "Familiars are, in a way, not of this world. Or you can even go as far as to say not of this universe. At least that's what my research showed me. The vampires from time to time are able to bring these families from their universe into our own.

"While this is a type of contract that is usually only formed when they agree to help each other, they tend to only attach themselves to the strong. You see, most of the time, the main goal of the familiar is to stay in this world, but they also have their own wishes. Over time, perhaps a natural bond will be created and they forgo these wishes, but at the start they are a picky strange type, if they believe that their master can no longer satisfy their desires or wishes, they will attempt to kill the owner. They would rather die than be with someone so weak.

"Because of this, a special rule was put in place. Only the vampire leaders as well as their successors are able to have a familiar. Since this rule was implemented, I don't believe there has been an incident. Not during my time, anyway. Over the years we learnt more and more to make it less dangerous, so in truth perhaps more vampires could have familiars as well, but now it has become a tradition to only allow the leaders and their successors to have them."

As expected, there always seemed to be a downside to something like this. It couldn't have all just been one way, but nothing in life was like that. There had to be some kind of a balance.

The image in his head had appeared of the Wendigo being stabbed through the head again. Then Quinn started to think about all the Wendigos that were dead around him. Was that all the doing of the Boneclaw? If that was the case, then instead of killing Quinn, did the Boneclaw decide to choose him as his master?

"Why me? Why did the Boneclaw choose me?" Quinn asked.

"Well, although I said I could give you answers to everything, I can't read the Boneclaws mind. However, there is someone we can ask. Why don't we ask the familiar himself?"

Knowing that the Boneclaw had chosen him, Quinn didn't think it would decide to kill him this early on. It was still too early on to tell whether or not he was worthy. So it shouldn't be a risk.

"How?"

"Take off your shirt." The system ordered

"What!" Quinn said, a little embarrassed at the request that he made.

"Don't be silly now, I have no interest in a young boy's body, who do you think I am?" The system said half annoyed. "The reason why I'm asking is that there is no object and when you look in the water, you are able to see the Boneclaw's reflection, correct? This means the Boneclaw has attached itself somewhere on you. Perhaps there is a marking of some kind, and right now I can't see any markings on you. I'm just hoping it's below your shirt and not anywhere else."

Hearing this, Quinn too was hoping that the marking wasn't in some type of strange place. As he complied with the request and started to take off his shirt.

"Ah, there it is!" The system said with joy. "It looks like the marking is on your back"

The marking was a circle the size of a fist down his back, and when looking closer, it looked more like a strange-looking skull. As it had two dark eyes and the mouth of a demon..

"It looks kind of cool. It suits you. Go on then, now we know where the marking is, why don't you summon it!" the system said.

"That's what I was waiting for you to tell me how to do, you idiot." Quinn said, as he was starting to get frustrated with the system more and more.

"Hey, it's been a long time, and I can't tell you everything. Most of the time it comes from a special feeling. Why don't you just try to think of the Boneclaw, maybe it will appear!" the system shouted back.

In truth, if one was to watch the argument that was going on right now, they would only be able to see one person here, Quinn shouting and no one else. For when the system spoke, it would speak in his mind.

Still, while the two were bickering loudly, the voice managed to attract some unwanted attention. One of the Wendigos who was in the water was still alive. It slowly started to paddle its way towards the noise.

While all of this was happening, Quinn was unaware, still bickering away. A loud splash was heard as it leapt its way across the pond out, and with its long arms stretched it was coming towards Quinn.

The loud shriek had shocked Quinn, but what surprised him even more, was before he could even do anything to kill it, directly in front of him, the very thing he was trying to summon was there. The creature's body had blocked the view of everything, its back was large blocking Quinn's view, so he was unable to see anything that happened. Then when it turned around, the blood could be seen covering its long dangling fingers.

Not even for a second, did Quinn even feel like he was the master of such a powerful looking scary thing. But it stood there right in front of him doing nothing, and the system also noticed the marking on his back had disappeared.

[inspect]

[Boneclaw]

[Large Undead, who always seem to be suffering in hatred and pain. When searching for master it specifically looks for those with the strongest source of evil intent in the area. It will do whatever it can to fill this need of its master's desires.

They love to torture their victims and hide in the shadows. They have the ability to constantly teleport within a small area and will use their hardened bony fingers to slice their enemies.

While some Boneclaws do appear before their masters and fulfil their wishes. At times they will go out on their own, fulfilling their masters' subconscious desires.]

Reading the information in front of him made Quinn equally confused. He had no evil desires, or at least to him he thought he had no evil desires, so why did it choose him? Or was it just stuck in the facility for so long that it had chosen to attach itself to the first thing it could see?

Plucking up the courage, Quinn decided to ask..

"Why, why did you choose me!" Quinn said.

The system wanted to interrupt Quinn, asking him what he was doing. If this confrontation ended badly. Then there was a chance it could change its mind and try to kill Quinn. Forcing a fight that they had just avoided. Boneclaws were incredibly strong, and the truth was the AI had never heard of a vampire managing to obtain one as a familiar before. At least not a normal vampire.

The last one that had done was the Vampire King during his time.

The Boneclaw didn't reply and simply lifted its finger, pointing to one of the tunnels.

"I think he wants you to go this way?" the system said.

Shortly after, the Boneclaw started to disappear in front of Quinn, like a shadow slowly fading, and eventually, the mark on his back had appeared again.

Putting back his clothes on, Quinn felt like there was nothing he could do for now, and he would just have to go along with it. The Boneclaw chose him, and it didn't want to kill him. That was good enough for now. As long as it didn't try to stop him from trying to save Peter then that was okay with him.

Out of all the tunnels that he could have chosen to go down, Quinn eventually decided to pick the one that the Boneclaw had chosen. It was clear it didn't want to kill him, so perhaps it was trying to show him something.

After a long walk down the tunnel. He was finally greeted with a few stairs. Walking up the stairs, there was what looked like two slanted doors. Pushing them open, the outside sky could be seen. He had finally exited from the cave.

Chapter 399 In the trees

Returning down from the hill, Vorden explained to the others what he had seen. While the little spider hopped back over that was with him and was able to pass on the information to Logan. He could now see everything as if he was on top of the hill and had seen everything himself. They decided to move a little away from the entrance but not too far so they were out of sight of the exit.

They found a small covering, it looked like a dent inside the mountain which made it nice for cover, but it didn't go in two deep. They stayed here while one person would keep watch on the entrance. The reason why they chose to do this, was just in case Quinn would soon be out after them, but as time went past, it was becoming more apparent that he might not be coming out anytime soon.

Still, everyone thought it would be a good time for them to rest before setting off again. They had just gone through quite a draining experience, after all.

"So, the castles and everything, this really is the vampires' home planet?" Layla asked.

"Yeah, looks like it, and judging by the size of the city, it seems like there's quite a lot of them as well." Vorden replied, as he stood just outside the small exit of the cave watching the entrance where they had come from.

"So what is the plan?" Cia said, sitting and leaning her head on Layla's shoulder.

"It might be possible that Quinn has already left through another exit." Logan said. "Although we could wait for him, he did say to go and try to find out as much information as possible. The mountain is quite large and as soon as he leaves, he might also head straight for the vampire settlement. We're only wasting our time here if we stay any longer."

The others sat in silence as they thought about it for a while. They honestly all knew what they needed to do, but still they just weren't quite ready for it yet. Judging by how Quinn had been acting in school and this whole time here, he was recently trying to rush through everything. The others couldn't really blame him for this either, as they had a month in total to find out where Fex and Peter was, come up with a plan to save them, and safely return back to the school.

It sounded like a lot of time, but it really wasn't at all. Especially when they had no starting point and no information to go on. They were in the unknown.

Using the tools in Logan's backpack, he was able to give out some blankets for the others to sleep in. They took it in turns as they slept. It looked like for now the mountain area was quite safe. At least the outside area of it. So far they hadn't seen any signs of life, including beasts or a sort that came close to it. But they couldn't say the same for the forest as they had yet to enter.

After everyone had a good rest, they were now ready to set off again, Layla looked at the sky and it was still dark outside. It felt strange to go to sleep and wake up hours later still seeing the sky the same colour. But it was something they all just had to get used to.

"Okay everyone, have your spray bottles and masks ready." Logan said. Apart from Layla, the others took out the spray bottles with the red liquid inside. Logan demonstrated giving two sprays to himself, and the others followed. To them, they could smell no difference.

Layla also couldn't tell the difference, which meant it was most likely an ability that only the vampires possessed. And was not part of the subclasses abilities.

"With the masks, just keep them on you for now. It's okay if they see your face, we are not here to cause trouble anyway. But if something happens, we get split up, or anything of the sort. Then we will be able to communicate using these." Logan explained.

"Did you have to say that?" Layla said. "You know you just jinxed us, right?"

With everything packed and done, the group took one last look at the cave entrance they had exited from, hoping Quinn would be there, but still, there were no signs of him. Closing her eyes, Layla could still faintly feel him, so she decided to continue walking forward, knowing he was okay.

As they entered the forest, just like when inside the cave, they were on high alert. This in itself was mentally draining. Perhaps a large snake, or maybe even something worse than the wendigos were in here, but they knew it needed to be done, so they carried on moving with caution together.

As they continued to walk, they saw plants that they had never seen before, strange large multicoloured mushrooms. Trees that bended and twisted in strange ways. It was similar to a beast planet, but for some reason, they just felt like everything looked ten times scarier.

"The city shouldn't be too far ahead. Do you think we'll get in okay?" Vorden asked.

"From what I saw, there didn't seem to be any gate or anything of that sort situated there." Logan said. "Perhaps they are confident in their strength, or maybe this is the first time their base has even been found without them knowing about it."

"And, what happens if they find out we aren't actually vampires?" Cia asked as she took a gulp.

"Taking a guess, perhaps we would be put in a class container like the last one." Logan replied. "Fed to some creatures or pets the vampires own. Maybe our blood will even be used for food. I wonder if my blood tastes good?"

"Would you please stop going into details." Layla replied seeing Cia was now feeling a bit woozy.

"Maybe we shouldn't ask questions, we don't want to know the answer to." Vorden replied.

Just then, the sound of leaves could be heard rustling behind them. In an instant, they turned around, but Vorden chose to not draw his weapons out. This was because the sound wasn't just coming from one direction.

The rustling of leaves were coming from multiple directions. As they looked at what was happening, all they could see was black figures moving from tree to tree at an incredibly fast speed, and when it finally reached them, each of them was ready for a confrontation. A few seconds later though, and nothing happened.

The small black shadows that could be seen from the trees continued heading forward, heading towards the city.

"What were they?" Cia whispered to Layla.

"I think it's best if we stop talking about our situation now that we are getting closer to the vampire settlement." Vorden said. "We all know how good Quinn's hearing is, there are others who could be the same."

Vorden didn't say it outright, but Logan understood why he had brought it up. It was a good chance that the things that were moving about in the trees, were vampires.

The group continued to walk forward for a little bit, this time not saying anything to each other, but then, the rustling of leaves sounded again. When looking behind them, only with two of the trees this time could they see the leaves rustling from one onto the next.

They were heading towards the group and Logan continued walking while signalling to everyone that they should do the same.

"I told you we would be late!" A voice shouted out loudly. "I can't believe you wanted to try to look for something better."

"It's not my fault. When we all go in like that they all run away, well hopefully this is a nice enough gift for our first day." Another male voice said.

As the two boys jumped from tree to tree, a certain smell managed to enter one of their noses, when looking down they could see a group of kids.

"Hey, do you think they know what time it is?" One of them asked.

"What, walking at that speed, of course not!" The other replied.

Suddenly, in front of the group out from the trees, two figures dropped directly in front of them. Both of them were male and looked to be around the same age as them. One of them was black-skinned in color with a crew cut named Fred. While the other had long wavy hair that split both ways, going down to his shoulders named Snow.

They looked like an odd pair of friends, but that didn't matter right now.

"Hey, do you know what time it is, if you guys don't hurry up you're going to be late." Fred said.

The others didn't reply to it, knowing that if they said something wrong or suspicious, it could become troublesome. Hence they decided to leave it to Logan instead.

"Late…" Logan said, and nothing else.

What he was pleased about, though, was it seemed like they hadn't been found out and the spray had worked.

"Yes late, they'll kill you if you're late!" Snow shouted, looking concerned.

The others standing at the back were getting more frightened by the words. "Kill".

"Yeah, the teachers will kill us!" Fred said. "It's the first day of school after all."

Chapter 400 Vampire school

Walking through the forest, the group and the two vampires were now travelling together. Not much was said apart from their initial reaction. One because of how much of an urgency they seemed to be in, and two, because the others didn't want to say anything either.

At first, they were running through the forest, they were now not travelling up in the trees but by foot, and every so often they seemed to stop to check their position. This was good for some of the others, as they felt like they were outright sprinting just to keep up, rather than jogging, but soon they started to slow down as they got closer to their destination.

Without saying much more, the group felt like they had no choice but to follow the students in front of them. They all had no clue how the vampires' system worked, but one thing was clear, they were mistaken as students.

Vorden while looking at the others couldn't really blame them either. Apart from him, the others looked like kids, perhaps even younger. Especially Logan with his short body frame and small limbs. He was surprised he didn't get mistaken for a middle schooler more often.

The good news was that the group wasn't too far away from the location that they needed to go, but then while following Fred, he noticed that they took a slight detour. Right now they were not heading towards the large city at all, but off to the side.

"Come on, you slowpokes!" Fred said, annoyed. "I know we're nice to show you the quickest way and everything, but we don't want to be late."

Just then, as they had exited out of the forest, the trees started to clear and they could see what only looked like a regular school campus. Maybe regular wasn't the correct word, as it seemed like the building was built in an old Victorian style. There were a total of four separate buildings. In front of that was a large open dirt field. A couple of hundreds of students could be seen walking inside.

And off to the side of the main building, there were three old buildings to the right, some of the students were heading that way as well but far fewer.

"Well, we got you here." Snow said. "So don't blame us if you don't hurry it up."

The two quickly fled ahead and went to enter the school.

"What do we do?" Layla asked. "This isn't the main city, right?"

"By my calculation." Logan replied. "It shouldn't be too far from here, it should only be a few hundred meters to the right."

"So should we just leave?" Cia asked, as she continually looked at the students, although she had to admit most of them looked just like regular humans, but just as she thought this. She spotted a strange female student with wings and a tail on her back going off into one of the buildings. 'No they're not normal at all.'

"Maybe that's not a good idea." Vorden said. "We don't know the vampires' rules. Maybe all students around our age are required to go to school. If we were spotted around town, it would raise suspicion. Right now we know nothing about this world and it could be a good chance to learn more about it."

They knew Vorden spoke good sense. The humans had a drafting system themselves, and even in the past there were some countries that had laws that were different from others. The worst thing they could do is offend someone without knowing it, causing a big issue while they were here.

"But, won't they know we aren't meant to be part of the school?" Layla said.

"You can leave that to me." Logan replied. "There's bound to be a computer system somewhere. It's clear they use technology, based on the teleporters it might even be better than our own. Also, I think we all missed one big point. Fex was the same age as us. Surely he went to school as well. This could be the perfect opportunity to learn what happened to him, or what is going to happen to him. We can regroup with Quinn and leave this place later once we find everything."

With that said, the decision would be made, for now, they would pretend to be students learning about the vampire ways and world, also while trying to gather information on Fex.

"Oh, and one more important thing, I don't think I need to say this, but I thought so just in case." Logan said. "Remember to spray yourself, every four hours, the maximum limit is five, don't let anyone see you doing this unless you have to, and lastly, although the spray can cover up your outside smell it can't cover up what's inside you."

The girls looked a little confused about this.

"I'm talking about your blood, don't go causing trouble, don't start any fights. If they catch a whiff of our actual blood, I'm sure the whole place will know in seconds that we are humans."

They all nodded and understood, and it took a few seconds more for Cia than the others to pluck up the courage to start moving forward. But as long as she had Layla by her side, she knew she would be okay. As she turned her head to take a look at her, she gave a smile.

As the group walked towards the school together, they made sure to stay close. It wasn't much of a problem as kids often travelled in groups so it didn't look too suspicious, but suddenly as they entered the middle of the field they heard a scream.

"Ahhhh!" A group of shrieks at the same time was made.

As the group turned their heads to see what was happening, it was a group of five girls who looked a little odd. Some of them had tails, while others had more vampiric or demonic features. Even a bit of red skin on one of them.

'Did they find us out, this soon already?' Vorden thought as he started to feel his back sweating a little.

Then one of the girls lifted their hands and pointed at Layla while they continued to scream, and the next second they had rushed over.

"Oh my god, oh my god!" The girl at the front said. She was a blonde girl, with a fairly large rack and had her shirt open, revealing it as so. One of the most unusual features was the single horn on top of her head and the red tail that came out from her behind.

'Wouldn't you want to just stick your head in those and shake them about!' Raten said!

Vorden honestly, didn't have a response, and looked away from the girl, so Raten could no longer see. Although this didn't go unnoticed by the blonde girl in the front and she quickly moved over to the side, and started to go up Vorden's leg with the end of her tail.

"Please, don't." Vorden said having grabbed the tail before it could do anything else.

"Pft, you're no fun." the girl said as she went back to the other girls who had practically surrounded Layla and shunned Cia out of the circle. Cia was constantly trying to get in so she could stay close, but she couldn't in the end.

"I can't believe it." One of them said as she placed her hands and started to touch the two small bumps on her forehead. "They're real."

The group of girls continued to stare at Layla as if they were star struck, and Layla didn't know how to deal with this at all, as she continued to fidget, but didn't want to try to shove her way out of the circle.

"Are you really a Hannya?" One of the girls asked.

Layla knew what she was after Logan and Quinn had informed her. She then went on to do some research of her own, and she was indeed the Hannya thing that they were referring to.

"Uh, Yes I am." Layla replied, in a soft shy voice.

"Wow, so she really is one, I've never seen one, weren't they meant to be all ugly, but this one is so pretty." Another girl said.

"Come on." The blonde girl in front said as she grabbed Layla by the hand. She started to drag her off to one of the buildings located to the side. "We'll look after you, otherwise these scary boring boys will take advantage of you." She then quickly pulled her tongue out at Vorden, who's face had gone red at this point.

"Wait!" Cia shouted, but Logan quickly stopped her from saying anything else.

Logan noticed that the building they were heading to wasn't the same building that Fred and Snow had gone into. On closer inspection, it looked like different types of people were heading into different buildings.

As Layla was being pulled away, she had to ask.

"What's going on, aren't we supposed to go to the main building?" Layla said.

"Don't be silly." The blonde girl replied. "That's only for vampires, we're subclasses, you have Category A over there, then building B and us are in C. Looks like you didn't pay much attention to the information they sent to your home, but don't you worry, we'll look after you."

Layla then turned her head, as she continued to be dragged away from the others, with a concerned look on her face. She had been separated from the group.

But she wasn't the only one that was affected, as Cia too now felt like she was alone.

Chapter 401 A new classroom

Seeing Layla get dragged off like that was an unexpected outcome that they didn't plan for, But Logan knew this might be the case. There was a good chance that more unexpected things like that would happen. He hated the fact that they were in the unknown right now and he had no information about anything.

This wasn't his way of planning or doing things. Not like this. More than ever he constantly was put on the spot , and needed to make decisions instantly before obtaining all the facts.

However, he was least worried for Layla out of everyone else. For she was the only one that was actually a subclass of a vampire. Her identity was harder to be revealed compared to the rest of them.

A single ring of a large bell was heard, signifying that it was time for classes to begin. One ring, and then no more. The group now having lost Layla were making their way through the school halls, but they were now completely empty, void of students as soon as the bell had rung. The excitement and chatter that was filled everywhere just seconds ago had stopped.

"Hey, hey, isn't this bad?" Cia said. "What are we going to do about Layla?" She asked while the group continued going down the hallway as if they were looking for something.

Logan for the most part was concentrating on the information his little spiders were giving back to him. Right now he was looking for some type of server room where they kept the school files. As long as they had this and he could add their names on to the list, they would be okay. Even if they got into trouble for being late to the class.

"Don't worry about Layla, she's a strong one, she's more skilled than you know." Vorden replied, 'And so are you.' He said in his head, knowing full well that the two of them were ex agents of Pure.

Finally, it looked like Logan had found it, although to alter it, he would need to use his own ability directly. They carried on walking through the halls until they eventually found the room that they were looking for. It was unguarded, unlike the facilities at their own school. Perhaps it was because the vampires trusted each other, or they were too scared to do anything drastic like this.

Logan entered the room by himself, while Vorden and Layla continued to stay outside on guard. They looked around, but it really did seem like not a single person was late for their classes or were scanning the hallways

The silence made it a little awkward between the two of them until eventually, Cia decided to break it.

"Hey Vorden, do you remember who I was, you know, before the memory loss?"

As she asked the question, flashing memories appeared in his head, of all the strange advancement she had made towards him and all the compliments as well. Maybe Raten enjoyed them, but Vorden certainly did not.

"You were... a confident girl." Vorden replied.

Meanwhile, Logan was in the room, which was dark inside and filled with red Led lights. There was a large terminal, one of the likes he had never seen before. This caused him to slightly hesitate after what had happened at the science lab. 'They can't all be like that right. If I can't do this, then we're going to have to change everything.'

Placing his hand on the machine, he waited a few moments, his heart thumping loud and his palms slightly sweating, but after a few seconds, a smile appeared on his face. The machine was listening to him.

After gathering information from the machine, Logan found that there weren't many students in the school at all. Altogether there were around five hundred students and that included the other buildings as well. The other thing he found strange was there seemed to only be a single year group.

It was strange indeed, but the computer only had information on the school and didn't have the reason why it was like the way it was. Hopefully soon they could find out. At first, Logan was going to add them to the class with the least students, but it turned out nearly every class had a small number of students. Going up to twenty at most.

The computer system was also linked to the other systems around the campus, so Logan also altered the information on the other computer as well for Layla's sake.

"And done." Logan said.

Exiting out of the room, it was time for them to find their classroom, which was the classroom D. The halls were split into different letters depending what side they were on and eventually they had finally found it. No longer could the three of them talk about certain matters, and they would just have to find as much information as they could on their own for now.

Before they even were able to step into the room though, a female voice was heard.

"Are you going to come in or stand there all day!" She could tell people were standing outside.

Entering the room first was Logan, with Cia and Vorden behind them. Looking around the room, the female teacher could be seen standing at the front, in front of a digital display, while all the students were sitting in their seats that went diagonally up in each row, similar to a cinema.

Two of the students in the class noticed who had just come in. It was the two students who had helped them get here, Snow and Fred.

'Whoa, they really didn't listen to us, there mega late.' Fred whispered.

'I know, I wonder what the…"

"Stop talking!" The teacher shouted as she flicked her finger and threw out what looked like a little red bullet that managed to hit Snow right between the eyebrows. His head was flung backwards, and he had fallen off his chair.

The teacher then turned around to look at the three in the classroom.

"Now, who are you three?" She asked.

"We are students of this class." Logan replied as he bowed down. "Sorry we are late!"

The other two quickly did the same and apologized as well. "Sorry we are late!"

"It looks like you have manners." The teacher said, "but I'm afraid you have made a mistake, all the students are already in my class, the list has been checked and everyone on the system is here and present. It would be best if you found your real class and let them punish you."

"Is it possible you made a mistake, miss?" Logan said.

Hearing the student say this, many of the students gritted their teeth together, some felt like ducking underneath their desk in fear that the teacher was going to explode. They had all heard the rumors of how strict teachers were, and especially about this new one.

She looked at the three carefully, and out of all of them, she could hear the heartbeat of the young girl the loudest, it was clear that she was frightened.

"Very well, I shall check again, but let me tell you, I am thorough and can't remember the last time I made a…" But the teacher decided to stop herself there before continuing.

As she went to her computer system, the three and the entire class waited in silence, and just like Logan had said, there were three names she hadn't recognised before added.

'I'm sure, there weren't this many students in the class when I got the schedule this morning. Did they shift around the student's last second, maybe?' She thought.

Leaving her computer she walked over to the three, not wanting to admit that there was a chance she had possibly made a mistake she said... "It seems like there has been a last second shift in students from the other classes and no one cared to inform me. But due to me being wrong and you being late, I have decided not to give you any punishments please take a seat."

There weren't many spare places left in the class, so the three of them had to sit separately from each other. Cia sat next to a couple of girls, Logan sat near the back next to a large boy and Vorden decided to sit next to the two they had met this morning, Snow and Fred.

With everything done, it was time for the real class to begin.

"Alright everyone, since three people were late, I have decided to start the class from the beginning again." She said. There were no complaints or moans made from any of the students. She walked up to the digital display and wrote out her name on the board as she continued to speak.

"Now, as a lot of you may know, I'm a new teacher that has decided just to start this term. I'm sure you have heard many things surrounding my family and events, but I want you to forget all of that. You are my students and I will do my duty that has been asked of me. All of you may call me…"

Moving to the side allowing the class to see the screen, written out on the digital display were the words, S I L V E R.

"Silver." She said, with the plain straight face she always had.

Chapter 402 Start with a B

Not a lot of people knew why Silver had suddenly decided to become a teacher. Usually due to the duties of a vampire knight, one was too busy to do such a thing. For some reason though, after learning about the events of her brother, she had decided to become a teacher after coming back from earth.

For her, it was something to take her mind off. She actually realised she quite enjoyed teaching back at the military base and thought she would give it a shot here.

But what was even more surprising for the others, was the fact that Sliver had decided to become a normal teacher. Her rank as vampire knight meant if she really wanted to, she could be teaching the direct descendants of the thirteen families, the next potential leaders. They often got taken out of class and were given special lessons on top of everyone else that the others weren't allowed to access.

So when people found out that Silver was actually going to be teaching normal vampire students, the word had quickly spread around, especially those in class D.

Sitting in the classroom right at the back, Logan was looking at all the students and noticed a stand out thing between them all. That was the fact that all the boys seemed to be in the middle of a daze while looking at the teacher as she spoke. It took Logan a while as he didn't understand quite what was going on, as it seems like the girls weren't doing the same. Most of the girls, at least.

"Okay." Silver said. "Now that my introductions are over its time for me to hear about yours. Please state your name, and your family number. No one cares about what you like doing, or what you like eating. So let's keep it short and sweet and we can get on with this lazy introduction."

She looked around the room and pointed at the boy closest. "You, up here and you can go first." She said, as the boy walked close up and went closer to her. His face then started to turn red. It was also apparent that he was fiddling with something behind his back, and that's when he pulled out what looked like a small little red crystal.

"Teacher! I know you don't know me, but I brought this for you as a gift, hoping we can get on a good start to our relationship." The boy said with his hands held out.

"Thank you." Silver said as she placed the gift on her desk next to her. Silver thought nothing of this. It was normal when visiting other families, and the homes of lesser vampires for them to come bearing gifts like this. Although she wasn't entirely sure if it was normal for students to do so.

Seeing this, Logan finally understood why all the boys were acting the way they were. When looking at Silver it was obvious, it was because she was a beauty, the boys wanted to impress her on the first day. Although Logan wasn't really into relationships and that type of thing, he could at least tell when someone was beautiful or not, and he couldn't deny Silvers with her perfectly symmetrical looks.

'They say the more symmetrical someone's face is the prettier they are.' Logan thought. 'It seems her beauty has had quite an effect on these people. Perhaps there is a chance I can create a robot that's even more symmetrical. One with the perfect square head, a flat nose, and the eyes in the perfect spot. This will surely attract everyone.'

If other people were able to picture what Logan had in his mind as perfect, they would think he was a mad man, or at least crazier than they already thought.

"My name is Tullen Difonde." The boy said. "I belong to the 9th family.. My favourite things… are."

"Ermm" Silver cleared her throat, interrupting the boy. "That's enough."

The boy was now even more embarrassed than before and quickly went back to his seat.

The introductions continued as they went around in a row, one after the other, and there seemed to be a similar pattern. All the boys had in one way or another given a gift to Silver. Some of them were red crystals, while others were special plants or items of clothing.

Vorden, watching the whole thing, found it strange as well, that only the boys were presenting gifts and not girls. Perhaps it was a vampire tradition that he didn't know about, and since he would be one of the first boys, being called up before Logan. He would also have been the first boy to have nothing to present to Silver.

"Hey, um... I kind of have no gift for Silver, you think that will be okay?" Vorden whispered to Fred, who was sat to his left.

Fred quickly looked at silver carefully, seeing if she was paying attention to their conversation or not. He didn't want what happened just moments ago to happen again, and that too, to him rather than to Snow.

"You'll be fine." Fred whispered back. "When all the boys found out about who our teacher was, we met up and decided to all go into the forest and try to get a gift for her. You know how well known Silver is and her beauty, and she still yet to find a man."

At that moment, Silver's head twitched a little, and Fred immediately straightened up his body and looked ahead as if he had done nothing wrong.

With this little information, Vorden understood a little of what was going on, and why there were so many vampires rushing towards the school this morning. It was class D. He felt a little safer now knowing he wouldn't get in trouble for bringing a gift. It was a peace in his mind, but soon that peace was ruined.

"Okay, you're next." Silver said as she pointed at Cia.

Although Vorden was the first boy to be called of the group, he wasn't the first one to be called of the group and looking at Cia shaking as she got up from her seat, Vorden was incredibly worried.

'Perhaps Quinn was right, Maybe bringing her to this world wasn't such a good idea after all.' Vorden thought.

As she went up to the front, everyone noticed how much her legs were shaking. It was unusual for one to act like this, sure some of them were nervous but not at this point.

"My name is… Bia." She said. Beforehand they expected something like this to happen, so they told everyone to use fake names that Logan had put onto the computer. However, Logan wasn't very creative when it came to the name calling process and decided to just change a single letter of everyone's name to start with the letter B.

Even if they were to use their first names, it was unlikely that the vampires would be able to track them down, as there were many people called Vorden and Logan in the world. Their names were quite popular in today's society. But it was better to be safe than sorry and to leave no clues behind.

Still, Vorden couldn't help but shake his head at the dreaded naming sense that Logan had come up with.

The next part was the more troublesome part for Cia. She remembered back at the facility they had asked a similar thing. The robot had asked Vorden to declare what family he came from, choosing a random number between one and thirteen. Whatever number Cia chose, the others decided that they too would choose the same.

That way, if they were often together, it would make more sense to the rest of the class.

"And I come from the tenth family." She said, picking a random number.

The atmosphere in the room was sudden, and Vorden managed to catch what Fred had said sitting next to him.

"No wonder she was so frightened when she walked up."

This was the first time Fred had said such a thing, and such a strange reaction, and the atmosphere was felt in the room.

"I just want to remind you all." Silver said. "That at this school while I'm your teacher, it doesn't matter what family you come from. To me, you all are considered to be in the Pooling stage. The school is a chance for you to get out of that." She then looked at Cia and placed her hand on her shoulder as if to comfort her. "Work hard in my class, and there's a good chance you will be able to catch the eyes of the other families and make a change."

The Introductions continued and the atmosphere soon turned to normal, with a few people chatting here and there and people clapping once an introduction was complete. Then another vampire boy came up to the front. He declared his gift to Silver like the rest and then stated his number as ten.

All of a sudden it changed once again, and Silver had to remind the others to clap, as he quickly rushed off to head back to his seat. Then finally, it came to the point where it was Vorden's turn.

While walking he started to think about whether or not he should say a different number based on the others' reaction. But they had already decided beforehand.

"My name is… B..B...B" for a second Vorden, stuttered at how ridiculous his name sounded, but he had to do it. "My name is Borden and I'm from the tenth family."

He quickly went to his seat before anyone could clap or do such a thing and allowed the introductions to continue.

"Hey don't worry about being in the tenth's family." Fred said. "We'll look after you and make sure nothing happens."

Vorden knew it, something indeed was different about the tenth family compared to all the others, but the question was, what?

Finally, it was time for the last person in the class, Logan. When he came up his introduction was quick and sweet.

"My name is Bogan and I'm from the tenth family."

As he sat down, Silver could finally start her lesson.

"Okay everyone, now that the introductions are over, I thought it would be best if we did something more practical for our first lesson, and something you might all enjoy and find fun."

Silver went ahead to write on the digital board and the words read out…

"Lesson 001, how to drink blood."

Chapter 403 Lesson 001

Hearing the name of the first lessons that the group needed to attend sent all of their brains into a panic. They read out the words slowly, just in case they were not mistaken, but it definitely said, "How to consume blood."

'Does this mean, we might have to actually drink blood?' Cia thought as she gulped down.

Usually, the first day's lesson consisted of ice breaking, the students getting to know each other. Or perhaps a friendly tour around the school. However, they quickly came to the realization that this wasn't a normal school. So they wouldn't be taking part in normal lessons here, such as Maths and English. More so than likely they would be learning about biology, learning a lot about the human biology.

After making everyone aware of what their lesson would be for the day, Silver went ahead and led the class to one of the school gyms. As they entered, the gym was fairly large and with only around twenty plus or so students it felt even bigger. Straight away though, the three of them noticed something spread out across the floor… something that almost made their stomachs churn.

If it wasn't for the fact that all they had eaten were Logan's small little food pills, then perhaps they might have done.

lying there on the floor was something that could only be described as a human body. Equally spread across the floor were five bodies placed in a star shape. Seeing such things, the students got excited.

"Whoa, are they really human bodies?" Someone aksed.

"I've never seen a human before? They look like us, right?'

"Don't you think they look kinda the same. "

"You idiots, of course, that's not a human body."

Heading to the centre of the gym, Silver picked up one of the bodies of the floor, with a small menacing glance towards the chatty students they immediately started to quieten down. "As some of you have already figured out, this is not a real human body. Our science department has been able to create a material that replicates the way the human flesh will react almost perfectly."

For a second, Logan thought that perhaps all the bodies they had seen in the glass container were also this so-called replicated flesh, but he quickly changed his mind. Quinn's system had confirmed it so, and the wendigos surely would have been able to tell the difference. For even Logan could see there was a distinctive difference between the ones here and the ones in the glass container, and that was the smell.

Real human bodies rotted. The humans were also able to create a material that would replicate the skin and organs. Doctors often used it for training, but Logan never thought he would see one in a place like this, being used like this.

"The bodies have also been filled with a fake liquid that is the same consistency as blood." Silver continued to explain. "For obvious reasons, on the first day we have decided to avoid using real blood. We know some of you might not have as much control, or a strong will as others, and we wouldn't be so cruel as to subject you to such things on your first day."

Some of the students looked a little nervous before and now felt a little relieved after she had said that.

"Many of you may never see a human in your lifetime, some of you will have jobs that make you interact with them. Still, we need to learn the proper way if an emergency was ever to happen, to extract blood from our victims and not to be found out. Does anybody know the best way to extract blood?" Silver asked as she looked at the crowd of people and eventually decided to point towards Vorden.

"Me,"

"Yes, you, Borden." Silver said.

Hearing that name, wanted to make Vorden hit himself, but right now he had to come up with a good answer.

"Erghh, your fangs?" Vorden replied, pointing to his mouth .

"I suppose I should have worded the question differently." Silver said. "Yes, the most efficient way to consume blood is using our fangs. They can easily pierce the skin while our saliva can be used to cover up the wound, but does anybody know the problem with that?"

She waited a few moments to see if anyone would raise their hand, but in the end, no one did.

"It's granted you wouldn't know, most of you consume blood form packs that are supplied to you by your family. When we bite into our victims using our teeth, a certain hormone is released that enters the human body. This gives them an incredible pleasure similar to as if one had taken a drug. One or two times is okay, but if you do this multiple times on a victim, then they will be seeking you out for more.

"You also have to be careful, as there are some people who are easily addicted. It might even just take one bite to have such an effect. So instead." Sliver then pulled out her hand and showed one finger, her nail then started to slightly extend into a sharp point, placing it on the dummy's forearm she made a small cut, and the fake red blood-like liquid followed. After placing her finger in her mouth, she covered the wound, and it slowly started to heal.

"This will be the contents of today's lesson. You must learn how to extend and harden your nail to easily perform a cut that can penetrate through a human's skin. There are more things that you will need to learn in the future, of course, how to subdue a human without them noticing, how to clear their memories after. What are the negative effects and side effects to major memory loss, but for now it will just be this.

"These dummies are extremely hard, and the material is expensive to get. So we only have five of them. I want you all to quickly form groups of five and surround yourself around one of the dummies for practice. I will be coming around to give you tips and see how you do. Do you understand?"

"Yes!" the boys shouted, while the girls had answered in a more calm manner.

Groups started to quickly form, as most vampires decided to stay with people who were a part of the same family. Not everyone knew each other as the city was quite large, but most of them did due to their parents being part of the same family as well.

With the three of them, they only needed to find two more, but judging by the reaction of everyone, Vorden knew it was going to be a hard one.

"How are we going to do this?" Vorden mumbled

"We're just going to be very bad at it." Logan replied, knowing he was asking about breaking the skin of the dummy. Instead of waiting around, he had already gone into recruiting mode, asking people if they wanted to join their group. But even the people that seemed to know no one didn't want to join their group, even though everyone needed five people.

Looking around, Vorden spotted the other shy kid who also claimed he was from the tenth family. Just like them, it looked as if people were choosing to avoid him.

Seeing this, Vorden decided to approach him. "Do you want to come with us Timmy, right?"

"Yeah, that would be great." Timmy said with a smile as he was overjoyed. Seeing this and how fragile and timid he looked, it reminded Vorden of when he had first met Peter.

As Logan came back to the group, he could see there was one more person, but he was sure he had asked everyone to join their group, but they had all declined.

"Well, they all said no." Logan said.

"It's expected," Timmy replied. "After all, we're tenths, probably no one, wants anything to do with us."

Vorden desperately wanted to ask Timmy what he meant by that, after all, it was the second time he had heard something like that, and it was clear the people were acting strangely towards them, but if he did ask it would also be obvious that he himself wasn't part of the tenth family.

Fred and Snow were already in a full group together, but there were still a few strays looking to join a group, but they were refusing to go to the others. So much so that the strays were now asking if anyone was willing to swap with them.

"Hey, will any of you guys be willing to do a swap?" A boy asked.

"Sorry, man, we're already a.."

"Yeah, I'll swap." Fred said, as he left Snow and the others and decided to head over to Vorden's group

"Hey guys, I came to join you lot, I thought you were all pretty cool this morning, so I thought I would join you." Fred said with a smile. Finally, they had their group of five and it was time to pick a dummy, but as they all walked off to head towards the dummy closest, Cia remained there, still in her spot.

Hearing Silver say something had caused her to freeze in place, the words "memory loss" triggered something in her mind.'Vampires, they have the ability to remove memories…? Didn't Layla say, we all used to be in a team together right, and Quinn.. he's a vampire? Not just any vampire, a strong one as well. Maybe I'm overthinking it.. but is it possible, did he remove my memories…"

Chapter 404 Rumors of the tenth

When Silver was busy explaining the task, and showing the others how to make a small cut, they all thought it was quite easy and simple, but it turns out it wasn't that easy at all.

After trying it themselves and having a go they found out a few things. The dummy was quite well made and the internal structure inside was done as well.

This made it more realistic causing problems. Some of the students had grown their nails too long and when digging in, dug far too deep, going past the skin and cutting parts they shouldn't have cut.

Others found it difficult to harden their nails or make them longer. Then when trying to force a cut open, they managed to only make a faint scratch or was damaging the dummy completely.

"Yuck!" a boy shouted, as the fake blood splattered all over his face.

"You have to keep on being careful, bodies are complex things." Silver said. "But this is why we practice. If you make a mistake, wait a while, put your saliva on the dummy to speed up the healing process and try again. Please also allow the dummy to completely heal before allowing the next person to have a go."

Then finally it was Logan and his group's turn. Cia had finally snapped out of her thoughts and slowly walked other to the others that had surrounded the dummy. Her mind was a bit lost and even though the others could see she was acting strangely, they didn't know why, but she had been acting strange the whole time they had been there. So it was nothing new and they chose to let it be.

'Layla,' She thought. 'I need to talk to Layla, I'm sure she will tell me the truth if I ask her, right? But what if she's in on this as well, why didn't she tell me anything this whole time. maybe I'm just thinking too much.'

First up to have a go was Fred, he even volunteered himself. Knowing that the others might not be the best. "I've done this a few times since my parents have shown me. They knew we would be learning this at some point." Fred said as he hardened his fingernail and then made a small cut along the forearm. It was perfect.

"First you should concentrate on the hardening of the nail, if you get that bit right, then it's similar to cutting meat with a sharp knife." Fred explained as he went back and allowed Timmy to go next.

His fingernail grew slightly, and straightaway he had gone to try to make an incision on the dummy. But his hand was shaking and Fred could see that he had done so in a rush, not hardening his fingernail enough. Nothing was made other than a small squiggly line looking like a snake on top of the dummy.

"Haha," One of the students from another group laughed. "Well, we couldn't expect much from a tenth."

"It's not our fault!" Timmy snapped back in anger.

Hearing this, Silver decided to step in and whispered into the boy's ear, who then immediately went back to his work and didn't say a word passed that.

"Don't worry about it, Timmy." Fred said.

The situation behind the tenths, now not only had Vorden interested but Logan as well. Something was up and they needed to know more if they were going to keep up this fake identity of theirs. And thus Logan had come up with an idea. It might have been strange to ask, but he thought of a way that wouldn't seem too far fetched. Especially based on all the information he had gathered so far.

"Fred." Logan called out to him. "Can you explain to me why the tenths are being treated this way. You see, my parents didn't tell me anything. They didn't inform me of the outgoings on the outside. They didn't want me involved or to know anything until when I was older."

It took a few moments before Fred could reply, and he looked a little saddened before he said anything.

"It makes sense that your parents wouldn't want you to know. The truth is the kids here know nothing about what really happened, neither do I as our parents don't tell us."

"The only thing we do know, is that out of the thirteen vampire families, the tenth one is the only one without a current leader. Which also means they have no vampire knights either. There's a few vampire nobles that probably know the truth. They are the ones that run the castle and look after their people, but there aren't many. Because of this, the tenth quickly turned into one of the weakest families out of the thirteen."

"You know about the vampire pool, the vampires that are under a banner but are able to freely move between the families, well that's why we are told to work hard in school, to get noticed by one of the thirteen families. Because if no one ends up picking you, you end up getting left with the tenth family. As time went on, I guess the others looked down on those who are part of the tenth family."

"It's not fair." Timmy said. "My parents didn't choose to be with the tenth, and now I'm stuck here as well. I don't understand, why don't they just pick a new leader." At that point, it looked like Timmy was about to break down in tears. Seeing this, Vorden naturally went over to him.

"It's okay, you know the only person who is in charge of what happens to you, is you. You can change whatever you want. It might be a little harder for you compared to others, but you can change it as well." Vorden said.

If the words had come from someone else, then Timmy would have felt like they didn't understand. They didn't know what it was like to be part of the tenth family, but this had come from Borden, someone who also was a tenth family member. "Thank you."

"You might know more than me, Timmy." Fred said. "But I've heard a few rumors of why they haven't chosen a new leader. The nobles are loyal to the last leader, and they have made it impossible for a new ritual to be performed to be handed over to somewhere else. Another rumor is the tenth leader is alive somewhere but has yet to return. The last one I heard, was that a new tenth leader had already been selected but they're just trying to keep it quiet."

"Or the other families are doing this on purpose, waiting for a time when a new king would be selected."

From the sound of things the rumors seemed to be all over the place. Logan thought that this type of thing would only happen if the ones who were in charge were trying their best to hide something. Perhaps each rumor had a little bit of truth to them all.

It seemed like the vampires had their own politics in this world, just like the humans did as well, the others thought. Although on the outside everything looked well run, there was still discrimination against others even in a place like this.

Hearing this piece of news, Logan thought it was quite good for them. The family situation meant they were to be treated as weak, not worth their time. If they did badly during school, they could always put it to the fact that they were part of the tenth. So when it was Vorden, Cia's and Logan's turn to try to scratch the dummy, it came as no surprise to any of the others or even Fred that they weren't able to.

He knew the members of the tenth family were unorganized compared to the others, not just that, but it seemed demotivating. Some found it really hard that once they were in the tenth family, to try their best to work hard to get out of it.

With the end of the lesson, there were no scores given for it, as it was just a practical activity that Silver wanted to do on the first day. Something more fun and active rather than her just explaining things to the others. And while looking around at the students, she felt she had done a good job.

She also decided that she would keep an eye on the ones from the tenth, as it seemed like some others were targeting them, but not just those from the tenth family. She was also keeping an eye on anyone from the thirteenth family. The problem was, while she was a teacher and everyone knew her position in the thirteenth family. If they were to do anything, they wouldn't try doing it in front of her.

"Okay, everyone, it's time for a break. You may now all head to the canteen for some food, before returning back to the homeroom class an hour later. Enjoy your lunch." Silver said as she walked off ahead of the students.

"Come on, it looks like all you tenth guys are a bit lost." Fred said. "Let me take you to the canteen."

But the others didn't have an appetite to go to the canteen, as they started to think about what vampires ate. The images were going through their head. Was it human flesh, eye balls, livers, or would it just be blood?

Chapter 405 Family traitors

As the group headed towards the canteen Fred decided it was best if he stayed with them. It wasn't because people in the tenth got bullied. There was no need for any of that, but they often got shunned left to the side, or treated as extra weight most of the time.

I guess some would say it was a form of bullying, but at least not a physical form. Because of this, Fred felt a little sorry for them. At least the tenths had each other, but at the same time it appeared these guys were lost more than usual.

'Poor guys, especially that Logan fella. His parents had given up so much that they didn't even bother to tell him about his situation. They perhaps didn't even teach him much during the homeschooling period.' Fred thought.

Unlike humans who went to school from a young age, vampires were mostly taught by their families, their parents, and sometimes even by whatever courses or routines their family leaders had set up for them. Then they would go to school to learn the basics later on and then go through the initiation of becoming a vampire adult.

Entering the canteen, they could see multiple students already lined up. Waiting for their food. There were then multiple long tables that fitted 26 students maximum. Each table was set up, allowing the whole class to sit together. But what caught the eyes of the others when they entered, was the food. On one of the tables another class had already arrived before them and they could see what they were eating.

In front of them, there were just various different types of meat and nothing else. The meat seemed to be cooked quite rare, but it was still cooked and it even smelt quite nice even to them. Although it also seemed like there was nothing else but meat. There were no vegetables, or carbs of any sorts.

'Should I tell them I'm a vegetarian?' Cia thought jokingly, but of course even if one was in this type of situation they would need to eat the food just to not raise suspicion.

They felt safe, however as soon as they got closer they noticed something else, something that was by each student's side accompanied by their food. It looked like a juice packet that had been covered in plastic like material, keeping it cold and fresh. But as they saw the students drink up, a red liquid was being shown.

The others were just hoping it wasn't what they thought it was.

"Those packets are great." Fred said looking at them. "They only give it to us every two days, but it looks like they're treating us on the first day. They also keep in the smell, so anyone who's extra hungry won't start going on a rampage."

With those words said, they all knew that it wasn't the tomato juice they were hoping for, but it had to be blood. After getting their food, Fred sat down with them across towards the end of the table away from the wall. And they looked at the food in front of them.

All of them started off by just eating the meat first, ignoring the drink beverage by their side, while Fred was taking a sip every so often while eating as well. Still, they couldn't delay it any longer, for they had finished eating their meal and now it was time for them to consume the drink.

'Raten, your better at this then I am right? Do you want to switch with me?' Vorden thought.

'Hey, I like seeing blood spilt. I'm not some sicko that likes drinking blood, you got yourself into this situation, you get yourself out of it. Besides, who knows where that blood came from. If it's from a boy, you can count me out, if it's from that girl from earlier, than you might be able to convince me to take one for the team.'

"It was now or never." Picking up the juice pouch, Logan lifted it up, and started to squirt into his stomach. It was hard, but he continued to gulp it down, but it was as if his whole body was refusing to take it down, as it seemed to want to come back up with the other food he had already eaten as well.

'It's just tomato juice, it's just tomato juice!'

Trying to convince himself he repeated these thoughts in his head, but the slightly metallic taste in his mouth was a constant reminder of what it really was.

By some miracle and pure will, Vorden placed the now empty pouch back on the table and was done.

"Wow, you must have been really hungry." Fred said. "I guess you're one of those, save the best till the last kind of guys."

Vorden didn't reply, in fact he couldn't reply as he had his head held down to the floor, still trying to purge the memory of the last few seconds out of his mind, because if he didn't there soon would be a big pile of mess in front of him.

Logan looked at the pouch in front of him for a few seconds, before deciding to pick it up, and pass it down the line towards Fred.

"Here, I already had my fill today, I'm trying my best to not drink as much." Logan explained. "Also, think of it as a thank you for helping us all so much."

In an instant, Vorden turned his head. 'You little, why didn't he say that before I started drinking the bl…bloo.. I could have done the same thing.' It was hard to even think about what he had just done without being sick.

"Here you go, Timmy." Cia said as she also passed her pouch down to him. "It's the same for me, I already had some this morning."

As Timmy turned to look at Bia, his pupils started to widen, and for some reason she started to look pretty then before. No one had ever done something so nice to him before, to give something so precious to him.

"Thank you, I'll keep this and give it to my parents when I return home." Timmy said. As the group continued to talk Timmy couldn't help but constantly look at Bia out of the corner of his eyes.

However, their meal was soon interrupted by the clanging of a tray that had hit the floor. A few tables away from theirs, the tray could be seen on the floor and a student was standing covered in blood.

"What the heck you do that for!" The student shouted back.

"You traitors don't belong here, you shouldn't even be allowed to sit with us." Another student said.

Then a few more students from the other tables stood up as well.

"Are you referring to our family? Traitors! We're not traitors!" Another yelled.

Then it seems like a few students started to back up the first offender who had thrown the blood on the first student in the first place. Continuing to claim that he and those from his families were traitors. The bickering had continued for a while, but the teachers who were on the side intervened and quickly settled the matter.

The teacher stood there in place, watching over them as they finished their meal, making sure nothing else would happen or was being said.

"Are they from the tenth family as well?" Logan asked, assuming it was most likely the case.

"What… Did you guys live your whole lives in the forest or something." Fred said surprised. "I guess there really are vampires like you who are oblivious to the politics and things going on at the moment. It was expected that something like this would happen, and why they assume Silver has decided to come into this school as well."

"Apparently someone from the 13th family plotted against the other families, not much of the details are known, but what we do know was they all found out in front of everyone. But what made it worse, was the student was a direct descendant of one of the leaders, someone who was in line to become the next leader."

A strange hunch was coming over Logan, but he needed to make sure.

"Do you happen to know the name of this student?"

"Yeah." Fred replied. "It was Fex Sanguinis."

Chapter 406 The Subclass school

Breaking off from the others, Layla was starting to get a little worried. She didn't know who these girls were and had never met them in her life before, and all of a sudden she was being dragged off to a separate building where she would have to take lessons all on her own.

A worry was set in her mind, but not just about her, but about Cia as well. Although too soon to feel like they could call each other friends, in a way so far they had relied on each other. Cia used her as a comfort and in return, Layla used her to feed her powers.

Although she wasn't too afraid of getting caught, it did feel like a daunting task to her. As the group of girls continued to push her towards a different building. She started to get a grip on herself by breathing in and out slowly.

'Come on Layla, you can do this, it's just like the first time you went to the military academy. You were on your own back then too, and it's basically the same thing. I'm just disguising myself as one of them.'

She hated to think about it, but her preparation with Pure and all the training did help her for situations like these. There were multiple times and scenarios she had practiced for when she needed to be fake and blend in, and in all of them, she was on her own as well.

Eventually the girls had all led her to the building, it was a few times smaller than the main one, but so were the other two buildings she also saw others go into. They entered a type of reception room before being taken down a hallway and eventually entering a classroom. What surprised her was for such a small school, the classrooms seemed to be oddly big.

Just like the classrooms in the main vampire building, they were organized the same. Where each row was higher than the last, and the very last row was the highest. Only the room was about three times bigger. When looking around it appeared as if there were around fifty or so students already inside.

And on a closer look, they all seemed a bit different. There were a couple that looked the same, but unlike the other vampires. A lot of them had distinctive features that made you realise they weren't exactly human. It would almost be impossible to hide.

looking at these, Lyala was starting to be thankful that her two little horns on top of her head just appeared as bumps. it was easily able to be covered by moving her hair or placing a bandana on top. Right now, she could be herself though and there was no need to worry about such a thing.

"Come on, let's go sit over there." The blonde-haired girl said, pointing to the front row. Since all the other students had already taken up the other seats.

When they arrived though there were six of them including Layla, but there were only five seats present. The blonde girl had decided to go up to one of the other seats, where a boy was sitting.

"Hello there, do you mind moving so me and my other friends can sit here?"

The boy looked over at the blonde girl, before looking over at the other girls as well. He then noticed one of the girls with small little bumps on top of her head. Layla.

"I'll move, if you let me go out with her." The boy said pointing at Layla.

The blonde girl started to laugh and had a smile on her face, but a few seconds later, and a fist came down on top of the boy's head. "I said move!" She shouted and the boy, not wanting to get hit again, quickly left and moved to another seat.

"Girls are scary." He cried as he went away.

The six girls sat together, allowing Layla to sit in the middle and the blonde girl sitting next to her.

"I almost forgot my manners. My name's Amy, by the way. Nice to meet you." She said with a smile.

Layal smiled back, but honestly, she was having a hard time telling whether Amy was a good person or not. When the boy had pointed at her and looked her way in a certain way. A creepy feeling was felt inside her. It wasn't a usual way someone looked at a person. At least not a way she had felt. Because of this, she didn't really know what she wanted to say to the boy, but it looked like Amy had dealt with him already.

'She's strong willed at least, reminds me a little of Erin.' Layla thought.

"Amy, can I ask, how do I know this is the classroom I'm meant to be in?" Layla asked.

"Huh, did you not read the information they gave you? I know it was a bore to do. My turner made me do it, saying it would help me. Anyway, it's because this is the only class in the whole school. As you know there aren't many of us C class type sub classes. On top of that, there aren't enough of them to go to school. Actually, some years they don't even bother doing classes, and tell the subclasses to wait until there're enough students." Amy explained.

Finally, the teacher walked in, who looked like quite the handsome man. He himself looked just like any other human and had short hair with round glasses on his face while wearing a nice suit.

"Hello there everyone, I'm Professor Phil and I will be your teacher for this semester. Now before we start, I want to take a good look at you all and see what we have." Phil said as he started to walk around the classroom and went up and down the rows.

"I see we have a succubus here." Phil said, pointing to one of the students. "Oh a Banshee, and a Witchesse over there…" Then when going back to the front of the class he noticed one of the girls looking down as if she was avoiding eye contact with him. That's when his eyes started to light up, and he held out his hand.

"Do you mind coming up to the front, pretty miss." Phil said. For some reason, Layla found it hard to say no to the teacher, as if his smile was pulling her in. So instead she nodded as she was led to the front of the classroom with everyone else.

"As you all know, it's quite pointless for us to do introductions. Subclasses have no choice when joining a family because they have to follow the person who turned or created them, but that doesn't mean you aren't special. There will be times when you must work with others in your family, or maybe other vampires completely, and that includes each other." Phil explained.

"So it's important that we learn each trait of as many C classes as we can. So, I will ask, does anyone know what… Sorry, what was your name?" Phil asked.

"Layla." She replied, still being embarrassed as everyone started to stare at her. When going into the computer system, Logan had added Layla to the system as well, but was careful not to change her name. After all, he was unable to tell her unless he used the mask to tell her what her new name would be.

But if Vorden was here, he would have told Layla that she was lucky to not be called Bayla.

"Can anyone please tell me what Layla is?"

A few students had put their hand up, and that included the girls at the front. It seemed like more of the girls knew the answer to the question then the boys. Selecting one student, Phil waited for the answer.

"A Hannya." The boy replied.

"Excellent, so as you know here we have a Hannya. Now I want to tell you how special this is, it's very rare to see a subclass like this. Do you know why?" This time when asking the question, Phil didn't give the others the chance to answer and continued to explain. "Because a Hannya is the only known vampire class that is able to switch between evolutions on the fly. They have a total of three evolutions that they can choose from and depending on the situation they are in, they are able to change."

"On top of this, each evolution has a different set of abilities that would be better in different scenarios. They don't just stay in one state, but are able to change into these different states at will. Although after a certain amount of time, they will always go back down to the original state like the one that you see here in front of you. Thank you Layla, please sit down.

Layla quickly ran off and sat back down in her seat. Phil went on and started selecting more random students to come to the front. He would then do the same as he did with her. Explaining a little bit of detail about each type.

But Layla was far too distracted to focus, as she was busy thinking about what she had just heard from him. It was possible for her to evolve right now, yet so far she hadn't done so once.

Perhaps coming to this school might drastically be exactly what she needed.

Chapter 407 Who do you like?

The first lesson in the morning had taken quite a while for Layla. A lot longer than she thought it would take. Phil, the class teacher had nearly gone ahead and introduced every different C type class he could find in the room. And it turns out there were many. There were even a couple that looked to be the same type but it turned out they were different.

Although going through all this, Layla actually didn't find any bit of it boring. As he spoke, it was as if the words were floating right into her ears and she was trying her best to pay attention to every detail that was spoken.

She had learnt a lot that she never knew about herself and the others during that class. The bad news was Phil was only able to explain the basics of everything. He was quite a knowledgeable teacher, but when it came to certain questions about each different type, he would be a little hazy. Which was to be expected with how many different types there were.

But it wasn't too much of a problem. For the first day for them was all about learning about themselves. There was a library located in their building that had information of each subclass of vampires related to the category C. The first lesson had gone on for a long time and it was now time for lunch. But when they were to return, their tasks were to find out information about themselves. Because some of the texts used complicated language, Phil would be there to help them explain anything they needed.

Layla couldn't wait to return to class, it was a completely different feeling to when she was at military school. She always found the lessons a pain or a bore, but she was enjoying herself here, so far anyway. it reminded her when she was younger and used to read books about these things, wishing something like this would happen and now it really was happening to her.

When lunch came, they were allowed to go outside and enjoy the scenery as they ate. What Layla didn't realise was they were all meant to bring in their own lunch to school. Because each person's diet was specific, usually an allowance would be set aside and sent back to the family for them to support the C type subclasses.

The class was outside behind the school, where there were many benches and a few trees.

Although it still looked strange to Layla that everything was so dark. It was as if she was attending school at night time. Amy and the other girls had brought out a picnic mat and decided to sit underneath one of the trees. They then all brought out their pack lunches. In a way, Layla was happy that Amy had approached her and been so nice, otherwise, she wouldn't have known what to do, and it looked like Vorden and the others weren't eating outside, or at least not at the same time.

The girls continued to chat and talk, and that's when Amy noticed Layla wasn't eating anything.

"Did your Turner not give you any food?" Amy asked.

Later Layla found out that the term Turner was used to describe the person who had originally turned a human into what they had become today. At one point there were only vampires, and when a vampire would turn a human, there was a chance they could fall into one of the subclasses.

Some Subclasses could have children, but even their children would work for the original person that turned their parents. So whenever one would talk to someone as their Turner, they were talking about the original vampire that had turned them or their family. In most cases anyway, only at the vampire noble stage due to law, would they be able to turn a human. So they and their subclasses would most likely stay in the same family.

Seeing Layla with no food, Amy offered a part of hers, and it looked like a completely normal dish, with some rice, veg and meat. Layla had been eating the food pills and although she didn't feel hungry, it just wasn't the same as gouging out on a big meal. It was incredibly hard for her to say no, and the two started eating while talking away.

'She really is a nice person after all.' Layla thought.

The conversation between the girls naturally started to move onto one thing, and that was the boys. They were talking about if anyone in their current class had caught their eye, and then they eventually moved onto Layla.

"So Layla, is there anyone you like?" another girl asked.

"There must be, right? You're so popular all the boys already have their eye on you, so you need to be careful." Another said.

"They are?" Layla replied, confused. Layla never considered herself as ugly, but at the same time she was never one of the popular girls at school or at the pure base, honestly, she never had the time to worry about girly things like that. And now that she had two small horns that looked like bumps, she thought that quite possibly she would never get a boyfriend.

Still, she started to think about the question quite deeply and was wondering if there was anyone she liked.

"Not anyone..in the class." Layla said quietly.

Amy snapped her fingers as a thought came to her head.

"I know, you were walking with those three vampire boys earlier weren't you, I remember there was that tall hot blonde as well, although he was a little shy."

"Who them!" Layla said. "No, no, not one of them."

'Although, there were times when Vorden was nice to me. We didn't get along at first, but he slowly started to get better.' She thought.

"Wait!" Another girl said. "If it's not them, and the reason why you don't want to tell us, is it because it's your Turner? Were you turned directly by him?"

"Yeah, that has to be the case, I hear that a lot of humans who were turned by vampires it was because they fell in love." Another girl replied.

Images of Quinn started to appear in her head, and her face started to heat up and her cheeks started to redden. She ducked her head into her knees wishing to hide the embarrassment.

"Well, that case has been solved. Well, if you were turned directly, then it might actually make some of the boys weary of you. So see that as a good thing." Amy said. "Anyway, if you were turned, who was it, it had to be a vampire noble right, or maybe even higher?"

Not knowing how to reply or what to do, Layla was trying to think of an answer. She didn't know any vampire names, and she couldn't exactly tell them all it was Quinn. But just then a commotion seemed to be happening behind them.

"Oh no, not him." Amy mumbled. "Layla, keep your head down okay."

Not sure what was going on, Layla decided to do as she was asked. It didn't feel at this point that Amy would try to do anything to harm her.

"Well, well, look at all the pretty girls." A boy's voice said. "It was right for me to come over to the C campus. After all, you have the most and best looking girls in the school."

For some reason, Layla had noticed this too. The C type subclasses were mainly female, in the classroom over 70 percent of them were girls while the rest were boys. Perhaps that also had something to do when her evolution path was being chosen.

"Xander, shouldn't you be at the main building right now? Lunch is nearly over." Amy said.

"Oh Amy." Xander said as he played with his hair a little, making sure it was perfect. "You grow more beautiful by the day, I decided to see if some of your friends here would care to accompany me after school today, besides you know I get away with more than I should, being the most promising student of the school and all."

The girls started to whisper to each other as they now realized who Xander was. He was one of the vampires that belonged to the first family. One of the most skilled and had been invited to also learn their family's ability. They soon realised why he had so much confidence, and it would be good for the girls to get on his friendly side.

However, Amy too belonged to the same family, although her Turner was a different person, they had spent a lot of time growing up together and she never did like the arrogant air he seemed to show.

"Oh, and who's this pretty girl I haven't seen yet, would you care to turn around?" Xander asked.

So far, Layla had been looking in the other direction while sitting underneath the tree, and right now she didn't know what to do. 'It would be strange not to turn around when someone calls you right? What's the worst that could happen?'

As she turned around and Layla's face was in view, something had struck deep in Xander's heart. He gripped his hand over his chest and started to fumble as if he had been hit by an arrow.

"Those cute little horns, the white soft skin, and that innocent look in your eyes!" Xander said.

At this point, Amy wanted to stop it, but there were some things that she couldn't do. Being part of the same family, and Xander being in a higher position than her, if she was to try to do anything she would get into serious trouble.

In his excitement, Xander went forward to grab both of Layla's hands, bringing them close together.

"Please… go out with me!" Xander said.

But the whole thing was too overpowering for her. She had never let someone get this close to her, in her personal space so suddenly without knowing them. She quickly wiggled her hands free and moved back, and as if on instinct she placed both her hands out.

'Spiritual Chains' The black ball came out fast, hitting Xander around the body, tying him up in an instant.

"Good one, Layla!" Amy said as she had now grabbed Layla's hand, "Come on, let's get out of here." All the girls quickly followed as they headed back to the C campus.

Xander could do nothing but wait for the chains to go away as he watched the girls run off. "So you have a little bit of a bark to you, that just makes things better. I will make you mine. It would be an honour for someone like you to go out with me."

Chapter 408 Unknown Author

After lunch had ended, Vorden and the others started to head back to their classroom. They left earlier than the others as it seemed like the tables that were involved with what had happened, were asked to stay behind for a telling off.

'Well, at least they seem to have better discipline then in our military base.' Vorden thought, But perhaps things would get better once they returned. After all, Duke had been impacted greatly and it might have changed him for the good. Also, judging by Nathan's reaction, there seemed to be something else going behind the scenes, as Vorden had thought.

While heading back through the hallway, the group seemed to be witnessing something happening not too far from their class.

"Hey you, you're from the thirteenth family, aren't you?" The boy said. It appeared that one of the boys was being aggressive to another and had him pinned up against the wall. The boy who was acting as the aggressor was a bit of a pretty boy.

"Xander, my family honestly didn't know what was going on with Fex, we really didn't know. That's why it was decided to strip him of all his titles and relation to the family. So things like this wouldn't happen," The boy said.

Although the boy being pinned up against the wall didn't know it, Xander had a different reason for holding a grudge against the thirteenth family, unlike everyone else. Because of Fex, an unknown Wight had beaten him in battle. He had been embarrassed in front of the leader and quite possibly ruined his chances for moving up into the main family.

Instead of blaming the person who had beaten him, he was blaming Fex and his family. On top of that, he had just had a run in with a strange girl outside, who had made him feel even weaker and he needed to let off some steam. Noticing that the student was part of the thirteenth family made him the perfect target for him.

"That doesn't change the fact that you all could have been plotting something." Xander said.

The back and forth continued and Fred seeing this even pulled a sour face.

"Come on, let's go to class."

But as Fred turned the corner to head to class, he noticed that someone else had continued to walk forward.

The bickering between the two continued and it seemed like it had reached boiling point. Pulling back his fist, Xander was ready to release his stress on the student in front of him. Just as the fist was thrown out, another had come outward and pushed the weight of his hand at just the right place and time, so the punch had hit the wall behind him.

When looking at who had just done such a thing, he could see a pretty blonde boy to his right.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Vorden asked. He couldn't help himself and get involved, after all he was getting horrible flashbacks of what happened to Peter. It seemed like even with the teachers intervening, there were still those that were treated as above the rest. Vorden could just tell Xander was the type to not care. Otherwise why would he do something like this in the open, why would Fred choose to ignore it?

It was because he felt like he was above the rules.

In his right hand, Vorden held the black sword. Not because he was going to use it to attack, but to activate the skill to give him the strength needed to push the fist aside. Looking at the weapon Xander chuckled.

"Hah, who the hell is this nobody that uses beast weapons to fight, if you had any faith in your strength, you wouldn't use such a thing." Xander replied.

At this point, Xander was getting ready for a fight, and Logan was right there behind him ready to support Vorden if anything was too serious.

However, just then, Silver seemed to have come down the hallway, and hair eyes were staring at Xander like daggers. She noticed the boy he had pinned up against the wall and could guess what was happening.

Seeing this, Xander tutted and decided to head back to his class. Because he technically hadn't done anything to the student, there was nothing that Silver could get him for anyway, he and her both knew this. Still, that didn't stop her into staring deep into Xander's soul as he walked away.

She continued to look at him, until he walked back into his classroom.

'Damn, that Bit*h is scary.' Xander thought as he shook off the shivers and goosebumps off of his mind.

The young boy quickly said thank you to Vorden before heading back to his own class.

"Thank you Borden, not many would be brave like you to go up against Xander like that." Silver said.

"No worries." Vorden replied as he put his sword away back on his back. "I just hate seeing crap like that."

Returning back to their school building, when entering inside, Amy had finally stopped running and let go of Layla's hand. She could see the relief on her face had just appeared, but still she seemed to be concerned about something. As she turned around she went to look at Layla and started to smile.

"That was a good one!" Amy said, giving a wink. "That Xander still flaunts himself like he's some big shot. I thought his apparent loss would bring him down a peg or two but then they decided to keep it a secret from everyone, and he's still the same as he always is."

"What do you mean?" Layla asked.

"Oh, huh, Don't worry I was just mumbling to myself." Amy Replied. "But seriously, that guy is a perv, do you best to stay away from him. Unfortunately, because we are part of the same family I can't really do much, and the other girls won't be able to stick up to him either." Amy then went in to whisper in her ear.

"Actually, they might even turn on you to get on his good side." She whispered. "But if anything happens, then it might be best to tell your Turner, I'm sure he's strong enough to sort him out."

Although Layla was not too sure. She had no clue how strong the regular vampires were. The only two she had ever seen fights were Quinn and Fex. If Layla was in trouble with the top student at school, would Quinn really be able to beat him? She thought.

With the strange encounter over, the group decided to head back to class as promptly as possible. Inside the class, Phil was already waiting for them. Once all of the kids had returned, a quick head count was done, after that, it was time for them to head to the library. The task was already explained beforehand, so when they entered, they were allowed to go ahead and try to find as much information as possible.

The library wasn't very large and there was only a total of around six shelves with books on them, but then when thinking about it. This was all the information they had on C Sub classes. Which meant there was quite a lot of information there if they thought about it further.

The girls split up, as they too were interested to find out as much as they could about themselves. After all, sometimes their Turners didn't know much either. Even Quinn was only able to give Layla basic information about what she was.

Going through the library was quite easy since it turned out they were sorted out in alphabetical order. When going to the H section, she then needed to look for anything to do with her type and it turned out there was only one book she could find.

She looked at the front and the book was titled. "The truth about Hannya." When looking down at who had written it, she noticed that the name at the bottom had been scratched off.

She found it odd, and just to be sure picked up another book next to it. But this one was completely fine and said the name of the author like every other book seemed to do.

Still, for now she decided she would start to read it. The book wasn't very big and mainly just had details about the Hannya themselves. The first one was about the regular Hannya, the Hannya Nanmanari, this was what Layla currently was. All the information that was written in the book was exactly as both Quinn and Logan had described.

This made her feel confident that the contents of the book were accurate, then when moving onto the next page, information on the second stage evolution was shown. Chunari Hannya. A mid-level vampiric demon. They have long sharp horns, tusks like fangs and more powerful magic.

Reading the description of the evolution was actually upsetting Layla even more. From the sound of things it seemed like she would look even uglier than she did now if she was to evolve. The only saving grace was each evolution was temporary and she would always revert back to the Namanari form.

Although as she continued reading it seemed like they did have more powerful magic and more spiritual spells, but didn't go into much detail. The next page had the next evolution which was called Honnari Hannya. These have serpentine bodies and the ability to breathe fire. They are fast and agile having a lot of durability in this form, but can no longer perform spiritual spells.

'No, no, no! Does this mean I'll look like a snake woman if I turn into this? There is no way I'm ever going to evolve into that.' Layla thought.

Then finally as she turned the last page, there seemed to be a small bit of writing but nothing else.

"The fourth form of the Hannya has yet to be recorded down. My research has only taken me this far and unfortunately there aren't many to observe. All though I have a friend who is willing to help me, so the information on this shall be written down in a second book."

After reading this, Layla closed the book and noticed it looked quite old and then there was a publication date. It was almost written a hundred years ago.

'Shouldn't the second book be finished by now then?' She thought.

But when looking and looking, there was nothing she could find. Instead, she decided that perhaps if she was to search by the author she might find something, so taking the book she decided to head off to Phil who was standing in the centre of the library watching over all the students.

"Um, sir, I was wondering if you know who wrote this book, I'm trying to see if there was anything else he wrote." Layla asked.

"Oh, let's see." Phil replied, taking the book off her. Immediately, he noticed that the author's name had been scratched out.

"Actually Layla, the scratched out author's name means the book wasn't even meant to be in here in the first place. Maybe it slipped through because you're the only Hannya we have had in a long time." Phil said with a smile.

"Oh, but then do you know who wrote it?" She asked again.

"Unfortunately not." He said with a smile.

As Layla walked away knowing there was nothing else she could do, she decided to try to look at other books about subclasses that were similar to hers.

'The scratched out name, I guess that means it belongs to him.. I wonder how long it will be until you have been completely written out of the vampire history books." Phil thought. "Even your legacy continues now as these buildings were all founded because of you.'

Chapter 409 Vampire Structure

The rest of the day, there wasn't really much to be done. Since it was the first day, the students were just given their schedule of what they would learn for the rest of the semester. The group took a quick look at it and there didn't seem to be any worrying details on there. Well, at least not anything too worrying for how long they were planning to stay there.

And with that, the school had ended earlier on its first day than it usually would. Students were encouraged to interact with each other and continue exploring the school, but they weren't to leave the campus. They could explore the library, check out the training area, and even pop into the other classrooms.

In each building, there were living quarters. Since the school was only open for two months during the summer. In a way the school was treated as a summer camp for all the vampire families. While for most of the year they would be taught by their own family.

They were to stay there and learn every day until they were eventually sent back to their families, where they would continue their learning process and training. They would then be invited again at the end of the year to take the final examination to see if they were able to become an adult vampire. There weren't any details about what this exam was, but since it didn't concern Vorden and the others, they were not really interested in it, anyway.

As they left the classroom, the group had split up a little. The boys' and girls' dorms were separated and during class they had all been given a keycard with their room number. Cia immediately said to the others that she would be going to get some rest. The others didn't mind this because she looked absolutely drained.

In a short amount of time, she had gone through a lot. The experience of what the boys went through and what she had gone through couldn't be compared; they were slowly introduced to everything. She had instead been thrown in on the deep end, and they couldn't really blame her for feeling the way she did. However, Vorden still felt like she had been a little quieter than usual for some reason.

Apart from what she had just said as they were about to leave the classroom, she hadn't spoken or asked anything about what they planned to do.

As the boys were just about to leave the class as well, Silver decided to give a bit of warning to Borden, stopping and calling out to him.

"For what you did earlier, I just want to give you a little warning." Silver said. "The boy you stopped before, he's one of the head teacher's favourite pupils, and he's linked to the first family. Usually I would say there's nothing to worry about, but you see, you being in the tenth family means that even if they do target you, you don't really have any protection."

"While I'm around he won't really do anything to hurt you, I promise you that. You protected my family so I will protect you. But I can't keep an eye on you the whole time. I would suggest for today you head back to your room." Silver said as she went back inside her classroom.

Listening to Silver's advice, Vorden knew it was important that they didn't cause any trouble. They were more at risk than anybody. If he was to get into a fight with a vampire, he couldn't imagine not taking a hit, and taking a hit means spilling blood. Revealing his identity to everyone.

At the time, he wanted to not get involved in anything, but his body was moving before he knew it.

"Just go." Logan said. "No one is after me, so I'll be fine. Besides, I'm more careful than any of you lot, anyway. I'll try to get some information about what happened to Fex and try to find out more about the tenths."

With that, the three of them had split up, but would be soon joining each other again.

Spreading his little spiders out, and heading to the library himself, Logan tried to gather as much information from as many different sources as possible. After a few hours of research, from gossip, books and some old articles on the computer system, Logan was starting to get an idea of the structure of the place.

Before returning to his room, he decided he would stop by Vorden's first.

"There are a few things I found out, I thought you would want to hear." Logan said, stepping inside the room. The room wasn't the same size as Logan was used to. But it was a similar size to the standard military rooms apart from there only being one bed and no one required to share. The decorations were also a little darker, to say the least. The floors were made out of wood but dark wood, while the bedpost and frames had twirls on the post. Giving it that Victorian fancy feeling.

"Shouldn't we tell Cia this as well?" Vorden said.

"I assume she has too much on her mind. Besides, she's not really interested in helping Fex out and Peter, anyway." Logan replied. "She's only here because of Layla in the first place."

"First, the school building is split up into four campuses, this one that we are in which is for the vampires, then the other three for the vampire subclasses. Category A, are those closely related to vampires, Category B, the undead, and Category C, those strong at magical abilities. Right now Layla should be at Campus C. It looks like she will be safe in there for now so we have nothing to worry about." Logan explained.

"There are a total of fifteen castles all together. There is the main castle which is the largest one in the centre. This castle is where the so-called vampire king resides. Then there are seven castles on either side of it. These castles belong to the so-called Vampire leaders. If you remember when everyone was introducing themselves everyone said a number. This is what it's related to. They all work for the Vampire king. Also, each family seems to have a special ability that only that family knows. An example of this is Fex's string ability belonging to the thirteenth family."

"Wait a minute." Vorden said. "But I didn't hear anyone say a number above thirteen?"

"This was what got me a bit confused as well." Logan replied. "The only information I could find was two of the castles seem to be practically empty and completely abandoned. One of these is castle number ten. We now know why, thanks to Fred, it's due to the leader who had gone missing. And then there is the fourteenth castle. Unfortunately, it seemed like I could find nothing about this castle."

"Inside the castle, those that are related by blood, or are connected live inside the castle. Other than direct descendants, there is no one weaker than a vampire noble inside them. All of these know how to use the vampire ability. Then on top of these, there are a hundred more who also know how to use the ability, but aren't really related by blood. They live not too far away from the castle."

"Each vampire family has a total of 1500 people. The rest of the vampires that don't belong to the two groups mentioned above, live all over the city. Most of them don't ever learn an ability with hopes of one day being promoted and moving up to the top one hundred within their family."

Knowing the structure of the vampires was starting to scare Vorden a little. Who knew how strong the vampire leaders or the vampires inside the castle were.

"So if Fex is a part of the thirteenth family, then most likely he's in the castle at the moment. Maybe Peter as well?" Vorden asked. Thinking about the possibility that they would have to fight around fifty vampires to get Peter and Fex out of there.

"This information was almost impossible to find. It seems like everyone knows about Fex but at the same time doesn't. They just know he had done a bad deed worthy of an execution, and as for Peter, nobody knows anything. If I was to take a guess, I would say they have them both at the thirteenth castle, but we can't move until we get more information.

"Perhaps as days go past, more information will start to spill. I'll keep one of my spiders in each room and see what they bring."

The day had come to an end, and the three tried their best to sleep, but it was nearly impossible. Vorden was starting to think that this whole rescue mission was a lost cause. Sure, Quinn was strong, but to possibly go against all these vampires. It just didn't seem like a sane thing to do. They had pulled off many operations before against big players like Trudream and during the event, but this just seemed like it was on a completely different level.

As for Cia, she was starting to convince herself more and more about the possibility that a vampire had removed her memories, and the only vampire she knew of that was apparently close to her at the time was Quinn. She wanted answers, and she wanted them soon.

Chapter 410 Clever creature

Going up the stairs, one step at a time, Quinn could feel his heart racing. Looking at the dark sky he knew he was in the right place. Not quite belonging here but at the same time, something just seemed a little familiar to him. He didn't know if it was just in his head, or perhaps it was the vampire side calling out to him, but he didn't feel out of place or scared.

As he reached the top, he had finally pressed his foot on solid ground and it looked like he had finally reached outside. When turning around to look at what he had come out from he could see the staircase with the slanted door going slightly underground, looking like a bunker.

As for where he was, he had no idea. There was a forest with dark grey leaves and the sky, from which his direction he could only see a single moon out.

"Is this the vampire world?" Quinn asked.

"It certainly looks like it." The system replied.

"What do you mean?" Quinn said. "I thought you said the vampires originally lived on earth?"

"I did, and what I said was the truth, but we had established our own separate place. Designed for us and the trees you see here, were something that could only be found in that special place. I'm starting to wonder how they managed to move everything over."

Only knowing that he was in the forest, Quinn decided to see if he could try to get up high to some vantage point. Looking at the trees around him, he went and tried to find the biggest and tallest tree. Most of them were the same size, but if he got to the top, he should be able to see quite far, especially with his vision.

It didn't take long, and scaling the tree with his strong hands was quite easy. Jumping from branch to branch, making his footsteps as light as possible, like a monkey, he had finally reached the top and could look outward. Behind him there was a large mountain that looked to be a couple of miles away, then on the other side he could finally see it.

The large castle that stood in the middle and the several other castles that surrounded it. The Vampire settlement.

"It's a lot bigger than I thought." Quinn said.

For some reason Quinn had in his head that the vampires were a sort of selective small group. Maybe there were only thirteen households of families, but looking at this, it was an entire large city. Before Quinn had asked the system questions about this, but truthfully the system said it didn't know and didn't want to give an unrealistic expectation.

"This is…" The system seemed to mumble quietly. "It's the same. It's exactly the same as it was when I remembered it before, but how is that possible."

"If you don't know, how do you think I'm meant to know?" Quinn replied.

Now, seeing how large and grand the city was, Quinn thought perhaps the best thing to do wasn't to go straight to the city. Using one of his masks, he decided he would send out a message to the others to see if they would reply, but after waiting a while there was nothing.

Closing his eyes, he could feel the connection with Layla and it seemed she was safe. As for Peter, for some reason, even though they were on the same planet, he could feel nothing. But he wouldn't let that dishearten him. The system had reassured him that if he was put into the cells, then they would purposely try to block the connection. This way nobody would know where he was and attempt the very thing they were trying to do.

"We still have time then." Quinn said.

Looking around, still at the top, he decided to see if he could do something else. Perhaps there were some type of beasts he could kill to gain exp. Before going to the city and doing anything, he would have liked to at least have been at the vampire noble level, and his level up was now extremely close.

There was the mountain, but it seemed to be in the opposite direction of the city and he didn't want to stray too far, especially if he thought the others were in trouble and he could feel something happening to Layla.

When looking around he spotted an area that seemed to have fewer trees than normal. Listening carefully, he could also hear the sound of running water not too far. All living things, even beasts, needed water to live. So most likely there would be beasts around that area.

Quickly, jumping from tree branch to tree branch he made his way to the running water, until eventually he had reached his destination. It looked like a river and it was clear blue like regular water, there was nothing strange about it, and the water seemed to be coming downstream from somewhere.

Still, he carefully waited in the trees to see if there was anything he could spot. Eventually soon there appeared what looked like a little white bunny with a horn on top of its head. It hopped over to the water and slowly looked around to see if there was anything there.

Then it popped its mouth into the water and started to lick the water away.

Well, it might not give much exp, but at least it's something.' Quinn thought, but before doing anything, Quinn decided to wait a little. After all, there was a chance a bigger prey might come for the bunny.

That's when he started to notice unusual movements in the water, but it was a little too late as then a loud snapping sound was heard, and black blood splattered in the beast's mouth.

The little rabbit was unable to react and all Quinn could now see out of the water was a strange crocodile, snake looking creature. It had the normal body of a crocodile while the neck of the snake, then when it came to the head part, it returned to that of a crocodile with its powerful jaws but with the tongue of a snake.

It was certainly an odd-looking creature that he had never seen before.

'Now that should give me some good exp!' Quinn thought.

The snake crocodile had gone back into the river, and that left Quinn with thinking of the best way to lure the beasts out of the water and killing them. While thinking about it, he saw another horned rabbit appear.

"Perfect."

However, there wasn't just one horned rabbit, soon after another appeared from the trees and another. Eventually, it seemed like there was a whole army of them. Then finally, behind the twenty or so rabbits a single black horned rabbit appeared although it looked different compared to the rest.

A black type of smoke appeared around its body, and its eyes were red. A spiral pattern could be seen across its feet going up towards its neck and its body was roughly double the size of the others.

The black rabbit started to make a few squeals and the other rabbits started to move in towards the river. It was clear just from watching this that the black rabbit was the leader of the other rabbits.

The white rabbits then stood just at the edge, waiting while the black rabbit stood slightly behind them, and was bent over on its fours with its horn pointed outward.

Then, the movements in the water could be seen once again. Finding the whole thing interesting, Quinn decided to continue to watch the development. Just what exactly were the strange rabbits doing? It was rare to see beasts have some sort of intelligence unless they were ones of the high level, or the humanoid type like the king tier beast before.

Then, the beast had snapped up once again, and this time the rabbits were ready. Jumping backwards at the right time, the beast's head had bitten nothing but thin air. Once avoiding the strike all the rabbits had jumped on the beast's neck, pinning its head on the ground while part of its body remained in the water.

Suddenly, the horn on top of the black rabbit's head started to trickle slightly, as it lit up in a blue color. Little sparks started to come off the horn, as if it was charging up. Its red eyes started to glow.

Out from the Black rabbits mouth a squeal was heard and the white rabbits reacted once again, letting go of the beast's head. It flung up in the air and at the precise moment, a single bolt from the black rabbit's horn came shooting out, piercing a large hole in the crocodile beast's head.

It stood no chance from the attack and immediately fell into the water, drifting down the river dead.

'Wait, why did the rabbits kill the beast, was it just for revenge on the first rabbit? If that's the case, then these rabbits are really clever beasts, especially the black one."

Looking at the black rabbit, Quinn used his inspect skill.

Chapter 411 Kill the black Rabbi

As soon as the strange water creature was killed, at first Quinn thought it was for something as simple as petty revenge. But watching it for a little while longer he thought that maybe there was more to it than that.

Now that he had received his new quest, he knew he was going to kill the rabbit, even though it had done nothing to him. Usually, he wouldn't do this type of thing, even to beasts. Nearly ninety-nine percent of beasts were hostile towards humans for some reason but there were a few expectations. But this was a desperate time and desperate times needed desperate measures.

He would kill a 1000 black rabbits without a second thought, if it was for the sake of him getting stronger so he could save his comrades. Still, it looked as if the Black rabbit was continuing to do strange actions. It started to head downstream and followed the river along, and the army of rabbits followed behind it as well.

Every so often it would stop, and it looked as if the rabbits that were following it along were starting to slow down and go off doing their own things.

Whenever this was to happen, the black rabbit would start squealing again, making high pitched noises and the white rabbits would get back in line and continue to follow the black leader. it was hard to tell if it was an ability or if they were just listening to the leader.

The most strange thing about these creatures though, was that Quinn couldn't tell if they were beasts or not. When using his inspect skill, there was no such beast ranking. This was the same for the wendigo type creatures.

"It's because they are familiers and not beasts." The System replied. "The vampire world is deeply connected with the familiar's world and often opens up rifts sending them into ours. Just as not all vampires are able to have familiars not all familiars can form contracts either. As you can see, that black rabbit is a little special. We still do not yet know what allows them to evolve."

Although it was interesting learning about this stuff, Quinn didn't really care about it. The only reason he was being cautious was because he couldn't tell how strong the white rabbits and the black rabbits were. After continuing to follow them for a while, he saw that they had eventually reached the creature that had been defeated.

It was being blocked by a strange-looking dam made out of trees. Although the water could continually flow, the strange tree made dam was able to catch other things.

The rabbits then hopped along with the trees and the black rabbit reached the creature starting to do something, but Quinn couldn't quite see as it wasn't that clear. After a few moments, inside the black rabbit's mouth, there was a beast crystal, and a clear one at that which made Quinn guess that the beast they had defeated was at the intermediate level.

If he was to take a guess, having the power to control the other rabbits, on top of using his strange lighting horn, would put the rabbit at around the advanced level.

Not a hundred percent sure, but now knowing this new information, he certainly felt a lot more confident about facing the thing. However, he continued to follow the rabbit, wondering just what it would do with the crystal. They crossed the dam and staying a good distance away, Quinn then crossed it himself later.

Following them through the forest, it appeared they had finally left the forest area and entered a new area. Still, he made sure to be aware of where he was and where the city was. This area was covered in strange stones, the flooring had changed to a pebble like feeling and there were also many large rocks. Finally reaching what looked like a fairly large cliff wall, the bunnies had entered a cave.

"Perfect!" Quinn thought. Not only would he find out why and where they had taken the beast crystal, but also quite possibly this was their home base.

As Quinn took a peek inside the cave from the side, he could see that the cave didn't go too deep in and there didn't look to be any paths. But what did surprise him was the number of glowing crystals he could see. There was a pile of beast crystals lumped in the back, and the black rabbit had dropped the current crystal in his mouth on top of the mound.

"There must be about a hundred and fifty crystals in there." Most of them looked to be at the intermediate level, but it was hard to tell if there was anything higher due to them all being piled on top of each other.

With only one entrance in and out, the bunnies were trapped and quite possibly this gold mine was all his. Entering the cave and seeing all the bunnies, Quinn was ready. Not wanting to give them a chance, he opened up his palm.

[Blood spray]

His hand slightly flung backwards and a shotgun like spray of Blood had hit most of the white rabbits, while the black rabbit hopped over behind the pile of crystals. Some of the crystals went flying, hitting the back of the cave wall, but beast crystals were as strong as diamond and hard to break. They often could only be melted at extremely high temperatures.

[First White horned rabbit killed. 200 exp Gained]

[White horned rabbit killed 100 exp gained]

[White horned rabbit killed 100 exp gained ]

[White….]

The messages had appeared at least twenty times, giving him a good chunk of exp.

[35090/51200 experience points]

Still, it wasn't enough and if he wanted to do anything, he would need to kill the black rabbit. Suddenly though, as Quinn went to move forward, a blue stream of lightning had come out and at the last second, he managed to move his head, allowing the attack to singe off a small part of his hair.

The attack was incredibly fast, and it seemed like even if he was to use his shadow as a type of defense, then quite possibly it wouldn't be fast enough to block the attack.

Not being able to see the rabbit clearly, but knowing where it was, Quinn lifted his hand, performing a Blood swipe. The attack sent out five lines of red aura. Although he couldn't see where the rabbit was at least he would be able to lure it out or quite possibly hit it injuring it.

But then, a small little black bolt could be seen running towards him, and the next second it had already gone past him.

'How fast is that thing!' Quinn thought, but he knew for sure now he could kill it. It appeared to be a creature that mainly focused on speed, and the fact it was running away from him when it didn't run away from the other beasts, could quite possibly mean it knew it wasn't strong enough to go against Quinn.

Giving chase, he decided he would leave the crystals behind, levelling up was more important than a bunch of crystals and he quickly went to chase after the black rabbit.

[Wind walk] Using his boots skill, as long as he wasn't hit during the active skill, he would be able to run around ten percent faster. Now that his speed was far greater than before, the effects of the boots were too. With this he was able to keep up with the black bunny.

Now getting a closer look, he could see the sparks of electricity, coming off its paws as they hit the ground. Quite possibly the energy it had used for an attack was now being used to power its legs. He continued the chase until they had entered the part of the forest they were in once before, but he knew it was pointless. Their speeds right now were the same, so their distance would stay the same as well.

[Crescent kick] Quinn activated as he lifted his legs, sending out an attack far ahead. Performing the attack slowed him down slightly, but he was hoping it would affect the rabbit far more worse. The crescent kick was performed at a slight diagonal angle, hitting one of the large trees in front of both him and the rabbit. When it did so, the tree started to slide down and now stood in the rabbit's path.

The rabbit knew it could try to go around, but its trunk was far too thick for it to hop over it, and Quinn was now upon it.

[Blood swipe] Quinn performed it two times, completely surrounding it, and he was ready for his level up that was in site.

The Rabbit had accepted its fate and squinted its eyes, but then from behind the tree, a figure appeared in front of the rabbit.

"Blood wall." A thick red wall of aura had come up, and as Quinn's attack had hit, he had expected them to smash. Instead, though, it looked as if the blood wipe was pushing back the blood wall.

Unsure of what was going to happen, the person quickly picked up the black rabbit and jumped off to the side just in time. As the blood wall had been broken by the blood swipes and continued forward into the back of the tree.

"What the hell are you doing, attacking my familiar?" The person shouted.

Chapter 412 Angry child

Inside the person's arms, the Black rabbit was being cradled like a newborn baby. It wasn't just calmy staying there. Instead, it seemed to be shivering away, it wasn't just frightened but terrified.

"Oi, look what you did to my familiar!" The person shouted. "You've completely scared her, she's frightened out her boots, she won't stop shaking."

The black rabbit, turned its head towards Quinn, and he wasn't sure if he was imagining it or not, but it felt like he could see a smile on its face.

Looking at the boy in front of him, and yes, Quinn thought "boy" was the correct word to describe him. He could only think that the vampire was quite young, based on his appearance. He was around the same height as Logan. While Quinn was around 178 centimetres tall, not relatively short and not quite a tall person, both the person in front of him and Logan both came just underneath his chest.

He had ash grey hair that looked to be swept back that reminded him a little of Fex, but then the back of his hair was spiked out. As if the boy was always running through the wind and it had gotten stuck like that. As for the clothes, it seemed like they were dressed just like any other kid that age would have done, just a dark shirt and trousers.

"Hey! Hey! Are you ignoring me? What are you going to do about this!" The boy said. "Are you going to compensate for this crap?" Although the boy didn't sound it, he was actually being very cautious of the man standing in front of him. He hadn't moved from his spot, and if he thought he was going against a regular vampire, perhaps he would have taught them a lesson through a physical beating.

The reason why he was deciding to be cautious was because his blood wall had been broken by a blood swipe. One of the most basic and weakest blood attacks a vampire could perform, had shattered his blood wall. Through smell, he could tell the person in front of him wasn't a vampire noble. Although All vampires emitted a specific type of aroma or hormone that they could distinct from humans, it was slightly different with each evolution.

So just how was he able to break his blood wall? That's when he decided the vampire in front of him, couldn't have just been a regular vampire, but a vampire like himself. A direct descendant of one of the thirteenth.

"Sorry!" Quinn shouted back. "I didn't know that was yours, it looked…Interesting."

The boy gritted his teeth wanting to say something back, he wanted to snap..."Interesting?", 'he tried to kill and attack his familiar because it was interesting? Did he perhaps think it would make a tasty snack?'

Lately, though he had been taking anger management classes and he started to put it into practice imagining his happy place.

He closed his eyes and was transported into a room full of beast crystals, slowly swimming away in a pile, up and down, jumping into them like a ball pit. "Aww, the life…"

'This boy is a little strange.'

Putting the black rabbit down on the floor, it started to turn into a slight black mist. It began to head towards the boy's neck and eventually formed a black collar. Seeing this, Quinn realised it really was his familiar. Unlike his own though, the boy's transformed into a physical object that could be seen just like Fex's earing.

The boy started walking up to him and held out his hand.

"If you are really sorry then pay me." He said. "Give me some beast crystals or.." He then looked to his left and looked to right checking if there was anyone nearby, "a blood crystal if you have one of those." He Whispered.

While looking at the short boy, Quinn started to think back to the quest he had received to defeat the familiar. If he remembered correctly, familiars wouldn't really die. If he had killed the black rabbit, would he have gotten his instant level up? Or did the quest really mean to kill the boy, satisfying the quest?

If the second one was the case, then it would be unwise for Quinn to take part. Although he felt he was stronger than the vampire in front of him, he knew nothing about the vampire or who he was. Perhaps if the boy was to go missing, they would throw a search party or would be aware someone was here attacking them.

Laying low until they had gathered all the information they needed was what they had to do.

"Oh, I know," Quinn said as if he had just gotten a light bulb moment. "I just saw a cave in a different area, it had tons of crystals over there."

Pulling his hand back, the boy now had a scrunched up face and was starting to sweat a little.

"Wait…Wait, you saw that!"

'Bingo.'

Quinn thought this would be the case, he couldn't imagine the black rabbit caring about the crystals. After finding out it was a familiar belonging to someone else, it now made sense why it was doing what it was doing. What surprised Quinn was how well one could control a familiar to do it's bidding. It as practically farming crystals for him.

'I wonder if I will be able to control the Bonelaw till the point it can do what I want?' Then Quinn remembered the subtle text when reading about the Boneclaw, about subtle desires. Did all the familiars work like this? Maybe the boy's wish in front of him was to gather beast crystals, so that's what it was happy to do.

While the Boneclaw was meant to complete his darkest desires, not wanting to not think about it anymore, he tried to move the question onward.

"Fine!" The boy shouted. "Were even, thanks for telling me about that, I'll check it out later." Although he tried to keep his voice straight, he couldn't help but allow it to shake slightly. At some point, he would have to move the crystals somewhere else. Wanting the stranger to forget about what he had seen, he tried to throw him off track.

"So I'm guessing you haven't found a familiar yet, is that why you were going after mine?" The boy asked. "You know, you don't have to beat them into submission. Familiars are cleverer than beasts. Sometimes you can just talk with them and make some type of deal. If you haven't found one now, then you don't have much time left until we have to head to class."

"Class?" Quinn replied. "I'm sorry but I'm not a middle schooler."

"What!" The boy shouted. "You idiot you thought that because I was a shrimp didn't you? You're a descendant right. That's why you're out here looking for a familiar. It's not my fault that you didn't complete the assignment before school starts. I thought it was pretty rough of them as well. Asking all of us to go out and search for a familiar."

Hearing this, Quinn decided to ask the system if he knew more details, and it turned out he did.

"It looks as if even so much time has passed, the vampires are still doing things like they always have." The system replied. "Remember what I said earlier. Only vampire descendants and vampire leaders are permitted to have a familiar. In my time, they would often be separated from the main school most of the time, as there were different things to teach and learn. And one of the first tasks is usually asking them to seek out and find their own familiar."

"Can there be more than one decadent per family?" Quinn asked.

"Yes, it's quite normal for them to have many in case something happens to them. Some leaders used to not even know who were their children and who wasn't but would just pay attention to those strongest."

Thinking about this, if Fex was to have a familiar, it meant he was also a direct descendant. Not only that, but it seemed that they didn't know each other that well. Otherwise, the person in front of him would have recognised Quinn as a fraud. Instead, he assumed Quinn was also one, perhaps because of his strength.

Maybe if he was to join their classes, he could see if anyone else knew any information about what exactly happened to Fex.

"Actually," Quinn replied, doing as the system told him. He turned around and slightly pulled down his shirt showing the circle marking on his back. "I already have a familiar."

"Oh! Oh!, so you just tried killing my black rabbit for fun I see. I see!" the boy was saying in an angry tone. If it wasn't for the fact the person in front of him knew about his stash of crystals, he would have done something by now.

"That was an accident, let's start again. My name is Buinn." When trying to come up with a name, Quinn didn't know why, but his head was telling him that the easier thing to do was just to place a B in front of his name.

Letting out a bit of hot air from his head, the boy finally replied back. "I'm Rokene."

With that, Quinn placed his hand forward, suggesting Rokene lead the way, and the two of them headed off towards the particular training area for descendants. There was a second reason he decided to take this training up, and that was because if they told the others to just get their familiars now, then maybe he would also be able to learn how to control his.

Chapter 413 Summoning a Familiar

Heading back to the camp with Rokene, there were a few things Quinn had learnt about him in the short amount of time they were spending together. They still had a lot of time until they were due to arrive at the destination, so they casually walked their way there.

Thinking about it, perhaps learnt wouldn't be the correct term, but Quinn definitely could say he now had some opinions of his current short companion. The first word that came to his mind when thinking about him, was anger.

As they were walking, a few times through the forest to an unknown location as far as Quinn was concerned, Rokene was able to find fault with a few things. And when this would happen, he was sure to let you know about it. Shouting, cursing and sometimes just outright screaming.

Even now he seemed to have found another fault.

"Why do I have to take part in this whole training thing anyway!" Rokene said. "I already know how to use a familiar, just let me do my assessment to become an adult vampire already."

Although Quinn didn't know what he was fully talking about. He was listening carefully to see if he could catch any hints on what he was just about to walk into. Besides this, his random outburst he actually found quite entertaining.

During their journey, Quinn had found out that Rokene had had the black rabbit for a while now and it was the reason he was able to use it so well. But whenever questions were directed towards him, he would do the best to avoid them. Still, it didn't seem Rokene was that interested in Quinn in the first place which was a good thing.

Some descendants would naturally come across familiars as they grew up, or families would even risk forming a contract with them at a young age. Although this method was more dangerous, and had a higher chance of the familiar killing its partner. If the contract was successfully formed they had more time to form a stronger bond.

Eventually, they had gone out of the strange-looking forest and went into a more laid out open field area. The open field looked unnatural, as it seemed to be in a perfect square shape, and all across the side, the usual forest could be seen. It was as if someone had come along and come and just placed a football pitch in the middle of the forest.

On the open field, there looked to be several tents set up on opposite sides of the field in a row. At the end of the row was a larger tent, and standing in front of that tent was a single adult male vampire. He looked quite young, having short purple dark hair and a mole just underneath his right eye, but the look on his face was also serious, never moving, and it looked as if even a strong gust of wind wouldn't affect him.

'Are all the adult vampires like this?' Quinn thought, as so far the only two adult vampires he had seen were Silver and this man, and they both seemed pretty serious.

In front of him, a few students had gathered, some sitting on the floor, some standing around waiting. There were only about five or so, and Quinn and Rokene quickly went over to join them. The others turned their heads to look at the two newcomers, but quickly turned back as if they weren't interested.

"Hey it's okay, I don't like any of you sad people either," Rokene said back to them, but they still continued to ignore him. Even if he didn't know all of them, it seemed like the few he did know didn't like him.

Although Quinn could perhaps understand why the others wouldn't want to be friends with a person like him, Quinn himself never thought Rokene wasn't that bad. He just liked to express his feelings a bit more than others. Saying his moans and complaints out loudly, as if there was no filter in what should have been said in his head and what he should say on the outside.

They waited, and the two now didn't say much now that the others were around, and quite honestly, Quinn was a little nervous that the instructor would find out he wasn't one of them, but according to Rokene it was only the first day.

The system had also stated that not much information would be kept on the direct descendents on who they were or what they looked like. Because of the power struggles between each of the families, and the possible assassination attempts. This type of information would usually be kept secret from others, and that included the location of the training. Which perhaps explained the reason why they were doing it in the middle of the forest, rather than in a school.

Looking at the instructors and sensing his smell, he smelt different from the others that were around them. It was a smell he had only smelt once before, and that was when Silver had come to visit him. Which meant these two were at the same evolution as each other.

Getting caught or being the centre of attention wasn't exactly the best idea, and perhaps staying next to the unpopular loud mouth, was what he needed. As others who were arriving also wished to have nothing to do with him.

After waiting a few minutes more and more students had arrived and there were now a total of twenty-four students. What surprised Quinn was it didn't seem like a normal school where everyone was the same age. It was clear that there was quite a gap. Some looked to be around twelve years of age, and not just because of their height like Rokene. While others looked a little older around the age of twenty-three.

Which meant there had to be some type of requirement that was needed for them to be invited to the training. Was it their strength? If he was to take the words of what Rokene had said earlier, he was talking about the assessment to ascend to vampire adulthood. Perhaps that was another way of saying they were about to evolve into becoming a vampire noble.

If that was the case, it meant the people around him would be some of the strongest, vampires at the vampire stage, at the peak just before evolving. Seeing all the kids of different ages, Quinn started to think about himself. He was still sixteen and soon in a week or so it would be his birthday turning him into seventeen.

He had, had a crazy sixteenth year, and he was sure he would remember it for the rest of his life, but he had been so busy with everything he had even forgotten about his birthday, and it looked like he would be spending it in a completely different world.

"Alright everyone, line up!" The instructor shouted.

Those that were lazing around on the floor, standing slightly off to the side, and a little at the back, immediately got into position, standing in a row one after another.

"You were all given the briefing by your families about what you were to do before arriving today, So I will ask you all who are here, who has not been successful in acquiring a familiar?"

Looking to his left and looking to his right, Quinn was waiting to see who would put their hand up. It seemed like at first they were a little reluctant to, but there were some with nervous looks on their faces and the first person eventually raised their hand.

"Don't be scared, it does not matter if you have failed this task. It was expected of you in the first place." The instructor said.

After hearing this, more students started to put their hand up, and five eventually stepped forward, two boys and three girls.

"This will be a good experience for you all." The instructor explained. "One day when you run your own families, you might have to do what we will now be doing today. For the students that haven't been able to capture a familiar out in the open. We will be summoning one and forming a contract with them, right here and right now."

Chapter 414 Special boy

"First before we proceed any further, it's important I tell you all a bit about myself." The instructor shouted in a loud booming voice. "This is so you guys know you are getting the appropriate training and you can decide for yourself whether or not I am someone worth listening to. I am Clark Talon, Vampire knight of the fourth family, the Talons. As you know, every year it is the duty of one of the families to send a vampire knight out to train the descendants and this year it is the fourth family's turn, and I have chosen for these two months to focus on familiar training."

Raising his arm straight out to his right he kept it straight, and slowly his fingertips started to turn black, and a mist started to form until eventually, what could only be described as a demonic-looking raven appeared on the top of his hand. "This here is my familiar. Although I am no longer a descendent in line to become a leader due to becoming a vampire knight, I once was just like all of you. I have quite the experience when it comes to things like this."

Snapping his finger, the Raven completely disappeared in a second. It was clear he had complete control over it. Something that Quinn wanted as well. He didn't even know how to summon his familiar, that would be the first step before even thinking about controlling it.

The instructor Clark then pulled out a square black mat that was one square meter in size, and appeared to have a strange circle drawn on it in red. The circle had even more circles drawn inside overlapping each other and strange patterns going throughout.

"A summoning circle." The system said. Although Quinn wanted to ask the system some questions, he couldn't right now as he was too focused on what the instructor was saying.

"For those who have not successfully been able to capture, or perhaps just weren't able to subdue a familiar, we will be trying to form a contract using this, a summoning circle. When using this it will allow the bridge between our world and the familiar world to form a connection. Everything has already been prepared beforehand and a single drop of blood from the one wanting to perform the summon is all you need. Once that is inserted, we will then start the contract bonding process."

One of the female students then raised her hand as she heard of this.

"But Sir, if we could have received our familiars this way, then why did we need to go out for the last week or so hunting looking for one ourselves? Isn't this a lot easier?" She asked.

"Thank you for asking the question and I will explain." Clark said. "You see, when dropping your blood, it will show your desires and wants, sending them through to the other world. Those interested will come rushing forward at once, and the first one to arrive will form a contract. Unfortunately, the vampire has no choice.

"The familiars that are out here and have been in our world have had time to adapt, they understand human ways more and are more likely to be powerful. There is also the chance to choose which familiar you want based on your own skills. Besides, the stronger familiars would like to know more about you than just your blood. Sometimes familiars have other factors that they are looking for, we still do not understand everything about them. If I'm honest, it is unlikely when summoning a familiar this way, that a strong one will appear. It is more likely that it will attract the desperate ones that wish to leave that place."

Hearing these words, the five on the stage looked a little depressed but chose not to say anything. In truth, if they were to cause a fuss then Clark would have explained further but didn't wish to embarrass them in front of everyone if he didn't need to. The truth was, if they had been out looking for a familiar on the outside for a week and weren't able to find one, then more so than not, none of them were interested in them in the first place.

A familiar was able to sense those that it might be well in tuned with and will actively go out to seek one. With the explanation all done, it was time for the process to begin. The students formed a line, and a blade was used to cause a small cut on their finger, dripping it into the centre of the magic circle.

The circle started to light up bright red, and while this process was happening, the student would continue to mumble. "Please be a strong one, please be a strong one."

Then when the light had ended, all the students could see what had appeared. In front of him, his familiar had appeared. It was pink in color and was as large as a snake, wiggling about on the floor, but strangely it had no facial features, no eyes, no tongue. Just a pink thing wriggling about on the floor.

"Hey is that a worm?" Rokene said quite loudly. It caused some of the other students to chuckle a little, as it really did just look like a giant worm.

"A familiar is not everything, even if one is as pathetic or weak like this, you can still focus on your own skills." Clark said. "Remember, there are plenty of vampires that make it to a higher level even without a familiar."

The next set of students had arrived doing the same thing one after another, and several other familiars were seen. Not all of them looked incredibly weak like the first. There was a wolf for one, a strange butterfly looking for another, and a few more. Whatever the case was, they all knew they were now stuck with these as their familiars and they could choose to use it or not.

With the weaker familiars, it would be harder for them to disobey in the first place. They were just happy they were out on the outside and were unlikely to go against their master and try to kill them.

Everyone went back in line and had lined up once again.

"Okay, so now I wish to see all your familiars in its closed form. What I mean by this is the form it takes before it is summoned. I will be going around asking you what familiar you each have while looking at the closed form."

Going around one by one, Clark would look at their closed forms, then if they could, he would ask them to try to summon it right in front of him. He reassured everyone that it wouldn't matter if they couldn't summon it for now. It was just that usually from the closed form alone, he would have an idea what type of familiar it was.

But even he hadn't seen every familiar in existence, so this way, he would be able to broaden his knowledge, trying to remember their closed forms that matched with their appearance.

Quinn noticed that actually most of the students were unable to summon their familiar so far, with a few exceptions. Then it came to Rokene's turn. Summoning the black rabbit was an easy task for him, and he had a smug look on his face as he lifted his nose up high for everyone to see.

"Very good Rokene, as expected, and the familiar seems to like you well."

Finally, standing by his side, it was Quinn's turn. The strange looks the two had given each other didn't go unnoticed by both of them, and now it felt a little awkward as the two had come face to face.

"Please." Clark said.

Looking around, Quinn noticed there was a girl in the row behind him, as well as one to his side, but he had no choice. His marking was on his back, just underneath where his shoulder blades would lie. The only way he could show it was by lifting up his shirt and turning around, and that's what he did.

Closing his eyes out of embarrassment, Quinn was unable to see the reaction of the two girls next to him, but as they saw his perfectly crafted abs as if it was a sculpture, they started to feel themselves heat up a bit. It wasn't normal for a vampire to have such a toned body, especially one around Quinn's age, and all the girls couldn't help but try to take a peek, getting excited as they imagined running their fingers down his stomach feeling each abb.

However, the one that was most shocked out of everyone wasn't the girls, but was instructor Clark himself. Looking at the strange circle he knew what it was straightaway. Perhaps the youngsters around didn't know because it was past their time, but he did.

"Do you know what this is, and can you summon it?"

"No." Quinn replied, "But I know it's a Boneclaw."

Putting his shirt back down, the others started to whisper to themselves, trying to see if any of them had heard of it before, but it seemed like they hadn't.

Of course, the old king's familiar was kept secret. Just like how one ability would give one an advantage if known, it was the same for the familiars, and only those at the very top would know.

"You are a special boy." Clark said as he moved onto the next student.

Chapter 415 Comunication with the Devil

The word special could be interpreted in so many ways, and the others hearing this didn't really know what to make of it. So, in the end, they chose to ignore Clark's remark, apart from Rokene. This was because Rokene had been paying special attention to the words being used by instructor Clark, as he went around and checked everyone's familiars.

In his head, he was creating some type of ranking system based on the words that would have been used, and so far the best was himself. That was until Buinn got picked. And even he was struggling to interpret what the instructor meant by special. In a way it wasn't an outright compliment, that was clear because Buinn couldn't even summon his familiar. If he was to take a guess the word special in this situation was being used to describe his potential.

As Clark continued to go around, there were no better compliments given than the one to Rokene and Buinn.

'Looks like your skills aren't the only strong thing, but your talent with familiars might be good as well. Damn, maybe he was just one of those people that were gifted from the beginning. Never had any problems in his life, grew up in a good family and they decided to groom him into the perfect leader.' Right now, making his own conclusion, he was a bit resentful towards Buinn.

Returning back to the front, Clark began to speak once again.

"The first task we will be doing today is trying to summon your familiar, or at least that is the end goal. Some of you can already do this, and for others, it may take weeks or even months to achieve this." Clark explained. "But even for those that already know how to do this, it will be a good exercise for you all.

"What I'm about to say to you all now may surprise most of you, but there is actually nothing you can do in your power to forcefully summon your familiar. They have a mind of their own, they aren't crazy animals like beasts, but they are intelligent things. If they chose to not come out and help you, then that is completely up to them. So what this first lesson will actually be about is communicating with them. For those that already know how to do this, you can get to know them better.

"Communication with your partner is the key for a good understanding, for both of you. So now I wish for you to do as I do." As he continued to explain, Clark began to do the actions at the same time as speaking. He first sat down on the floor and asked the others to follow.

Crossed his legs and closed his eyes while his two hands were placed together as if one was meditating. "Okay, the reason we close our eyes when doing this is to have as little distraction as possible. Visuals, sounds, and all sorts can sometimes deter you from hearing your familiar. With time you will get better at this and you will be able to communicate with them without this."

"Now in your head, picture the symbol, or item on your body. Think about it and focus on where it is on the part of your body. Then with your mind try to speak out and reach to it. If you are successful in making communication please raise your hand."

Quinn was able to follow the steps quite easily, and his concentration was at this point almost flawless. He had pictured the symbol in his head clearly, and it was as if he was in a black room. The reason he found it so easy was because he did this every morning for the past month and a half. It was similar to his Qi training routine that Leo had left him.

When in the black room in his mind, slowly the mark started to turn into a type of mist, and slowly turned into the fairly large muscular figure with the long arms by its side and its dangling fingers that scraped across the floor.

"Why did you choose me?" Quinn asked.

There was silence between the two.

"You killed the wendigos, right? Why didn't you kill me?" Quinn asked again, hoping to get an answer.

The Boneclaw then turned its large body around and looked straight ahead at Quinn with its dead eyes. The two stared at each other for a while, not daring to look away, until finally, the mist appeared again and turned back into the same symbol that was on his back.

'Looks like he won't talk to me.'

Opening his eyes and looking around, Quinn had expected just like with the summoning, that most of them would have not been successful in communicating with their familiars, but he quickly realised that he was in the minority, as nearly everyone had their hand up.

In fact, the only other person apart from Quinn who hadn't raised their hand was the student who had summoned the worm familiar. But soon he even raised his hand.

"Teacher, although I didn't exactly speak to my worm, there were loud squishy and squashy sounds I heard coming from it, does that count?" The student asked.

"Actually, yes." Clark replied. "Although it's rare, perhaps your familiar is a little slow and does not know how to communicate in using the same language as us. When they attach themselves to us, usually they are able to naturally learn straight away, although others take some time."

With this, it meant that Quinn was the only person who was unable to communicate with their familiar.

"And what about you, young man?" Clark asked, interested to hear what he had to say, especially since he hadn't raised his hand.

"I couldn't hear anything." Quinn replied.

Quinn's reply didn't seem to shock him, or at least there was no reaction on Clark's face, so it was hard to tell based on this if it was a good or bad response. But they felt like at least they were a little better than him due to him being the only person unable to communicate with their familiar.

And honestly, Quinn couldn't blame them if they did see him this way, after all right now he was even lower than the worm boy.

With the first lesson over, Clark had told the students that they could start to set up their things in the tents by the side. If they wished they could continue to try to communicate with the familiars as a form of practice, but he also made sure to mention to not try this too much at the beginning in case of fear of annoying them.

They were just like people in the end, at times they wanted their free time and if one was to annoy them too much, then maybe they would purposely choose to not help or communicate with you.

As the students were picking a tent, Quinn decided that he would grab one next to Rokene, Rokene didn't say anything about this. His early detest for Buinn had changed after finding out he was unable to communicate with the familiar, perhaps his thoughts before were completely wrong.

Just as the night was about to end, Clark had decided to stop just outside of Quinn's tent.

"Can I speak to you inside for a second?" This didn't go unnoticed by the others, but they all thought that perhaps it had something to do with Quinn being unable to communicate with his familiar. Maybe he was going to try and give him some extra tips?

"Do you mind explaining to me exactly what happened?" Clark asked.

"Sure, I was in the space concentrating, and I pictured the seal in my head. I tried to communicate with him, asking him a few things. It demisted and showed me his true form. I asked it again and nothing else was said. It just looked at me and we stood there in silence before it went away and back into the sealed form."

Hearing this, a little smile appeared on Clark's face. "You don't have to worry." Clark replied. "You probably just skipped the next three steps. Usually, when one is to communicate with their familiars, they still appear in their mind in their closed form. Getting them to show you their true form is something different altogether. It seems to me that your familiar just does not wish to speak with you, not that you were unsuccessful with communicating with it.

"But it's up to you to make it talk to you. It will be pretty hard to find out its desires if you are unable to speak to each other. Perhaps this will take sometime, maybe a few days, maybe a week or even a few months." Clark said as he left the tent and started to head back.

As he zipped the tent back up, he could see that Rokene was listening in to everything that was heard.

"Damn it!" Rokene shouted out in jealousy and stormed off towards his tent. While he was inside, he decided to summon his little black rabbit once more.

Returning to his own larger tent, Clark decided that he would look over a few things. Most of all, he was interested in finding out just which family that particular student had come from.

"Oh, I forgot to ask him, or their names. I will do so tomorrow." Clark thought, but while looking at the name list he noticed something. The numbers were not adding up. The number of students that were at the training space and the number on his list. There was one more than there should have been.

Chapter 416 I said Sit!

MVS 416

It was the middle of the night. Even though there was not much difference between night and day here, the students were resting away. The adult vampires who had better control and such didn't need much rest or sleep. But the young ones including Quinn still slept every day just like people did.

Resting away, Quinn was suddenly woken up by a few trees's shaking. At first it didn't bother him as he thought he could just sleep through it, but then he could hear the sound of one of the tents unzipping from his left side. Knowing who was staying by his side, he decided to check it out and unzip his own tent.

To his surprise, he could see the black rabbit that he tried to kill earlier leaving Rokene's tent and heading back into the forest. Just as it entered the forest Rokene was about to head back to his own tent, but not before he saw Buinn catching him in the strange act.

Not wanting to get in trouble, he thought perhaps he could explain to Buinn what exactly he was doing. Waving his hand towards him, Rokene invited him into the same tent.

As he stepped inside, there was a single bed on the floor and a few crystals by his pillow side. Sitting on the floor, he started to explain himself.

"So what were you doing exactly?" Quinn asked.

"Look, I wasn't doing anything bad. I was just using our spare time to collect crystals, and my familiar helps me. There's nothing wrong with that right. Just if Clark the instructor was to find out, he might tell me to stop since we're technically not meant to be doing these sort of things."

Seeing the crystals by the side of his pillow, Quinn was starting to understand. The rustling noises was the black rabbit coming back and forth. Most likely moving the crystals here to the cave that he found earlier, his secret stash. The real question though was: Why? Why did someone need so many crystals?

"Okay, don't worry too much, I won't tell Clark." Quinn replied.

"Thank you." Rokene said with a relieved look on his face. It seemed like if he was to stop doing what he was doing, it would have really affected him.

"But let me ask, why are you so crazy about beast crystals?" Quinn asked, thinking that maybe there was something he knew, or there was a use for it that perhaps he could use for himself.

"… This might sound stupid right but don't laugh.." Rokene said. "I'm trying to save up so I can eventually leave this place. So I can have a life outside. I don't want to be here with everyone else." This was something big on his chest, something he wanted to tell someone desperate for so long and finally telling someone it felt good.

"You know I'm from the fourth family, so you probably know we have the crappy ability to talk to animals and beasts. The other families always laughed at us, and there has never been a king selected from the fourth family. I hear there is even a human ability that allows them to control animals and beasts, so what's the use of talking to them?

"So you see, I'm not gifted or anything, the reason I could and always have been able to get a familiar is because of my ability. Because of this, the other kids who know about this chose to ignore me, making me feel like I'm someone from one of the tenth's family."

It was clear he had been holding in these feelings for a long time. It was perhaps the reason why he was always angry all the time. All these feelings inside were bottling up, and he was releasing it out by shouting all the time.

"You know it's funny." Rokene started again. "The hatred, the ignoring, always seemed to shift. At first it was the fourths family, then the tenths, and then because of what happened with Fex, now everyone seems to hate the thirteenth family. Why does there always have to be one, why can't we all just get along?"

The questions Rokene was asking now, Quinn himself used to ask the same questions everyday through his school life. It didn't make sense to him, and eventually he wanted to change all that. The other thing that Quinn was interested in was hearing the name Fex, but now was not the right time to ask about him. However, it seemed like what he had done had not only affected himself but those involved in his family based on Rokene's remarks.

The two sat there in quiet for a while, allowing Rokene to calm down a little. Quinn wanted to say things to comfort him, but once being in the same position before, he knew that the words would do nothing. No matter how much someone said they understood how you felt, it never felt real.

Suddenly, Rokene grabbed his neck, and he felt like he was slightly choking as he fell to the floor.

"What's happening, are you okay!" Quinn said panicking, not knowing what to do.

After a few seconds, it seemed like Rokene was now okay as he lifted himself off the floor and he could breathe again. He continually touched his neck where his collar would usually stay and a stunned look was on his face.

"My familiar!." He said. "Someone's killed my familiar."

With the link in place, even though familiars couldn't technically die as long as their partner was alive, they could still feel part of the pain and loss. It would be some time before Rokene would be able to summon him again. While thinking of the possibilities of what might have happened, a few boys' laughter could be heard outside.

Both Quinn and Rokene immediately rushed outside, and could see the three boys coming out from the edge of the forest. The one in front had a crystal in his hand and he was freely chucking it up and down, catching it as he walked.

"That felt great!" the boy at the front said." I thought it would be a bit harder but…"

"You!" Rokene shouted as he ran as fast as he could up to them. "You killed my familiar, and that's my…" But he stopped himself before claiming the crystal was his.

The loud noise had caused the others who were still sleeping to wake up and come out of their tents. Taking a look at the commotion that was brewing outside. Quinn, seeing that things could get nasty, especially since there were three of them and only one of him. Now, standing by his side, he felt like he could back him up. He didn't know why, but he wanted to help Rokene, perhaps because he reminded him so much of himself when he was younger.

The dreams he had weren't crazy or far-fetched, he just needed people by his side to prove that they could happen.

"Oh yeah, so do you have any proof that I did this?" The boy said as he continued to laugh with the other two behind him.

The student that was laughing was called Siryus, and he was one of the few descendents that nearly all of them knew. A direct descendant of the first family. Quite possibly the current strongest family out of all the thirteen. Not only that, he had a reputation already for being a serious troublemaker, and not one like Fex who would just get into mischief.

With his eyebrows furrowed and scorning at him, Quinn could see Rokene wanted to do something, but he was holding back. Placing two fingers in his mouth, he blew. At first Quinn thought he would hear a whistle but could hear nothing. Then in the next second a bird flew from the forest in the direction that the boys had come from and landed on the top of his head.

"Did this person kill a little black rabbit?" Rokene said, pointing at Siyrus.

"Kaw!" The bird squawked and flapped its wings.

"Haha you idiot, just cause you can understand them doesn't mean we can as well." Siyrus replied.

"One Kaw for yes, two for no, do you understand?" Rokene asked.

"Kaw."

"Is this person a boy?"

"Kaw."

"Is he a girl?"

"Kaw, Kaw."

"Are there four boys in front of me?"

"Kaw, Kaw."

"I think you get the point, this bird is a lot smarter than you. Although your brain might be bigger, it doesn't mean it's better." Rokene said.

At this point, the confrontation had gotten too interesting for the other students that they were now all out of their tents watching what was going on.

"Hey, as long as your bird doesn't speak English, you can't prove Jack. For all we know, you're using your crappy ability on it."

For a brief second, Rokene looked around hoping that anyone, maybe someone would come to his aide but why would they. Clenching his fist, he hated that he couldn't change the situation he was in. Then the sound of a few footsteps from his side was heard pressing against the grass.

"Tell him, did you kill his familiar, the little black rabbit?" Quinn asked, walking towards them. With each step, his heart was pumping and his blood was boiling. The type of people in front of him now, he hated the most.

"Who the hell are you?" Siyrus said, as he was about to laugh at his friends at this joker coming towards him.

"You'll listen to what I say…. The next second his eyes glowed red as he shouted his command. "Sit!" In nearly an instant, as if his body had lost control. Siyrus was down on the floor, sitting down.
