The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 246 Realization And Understanding
"Hey man, why didn't you tell me you got stronger?"Ryan blurted out in surprise and couldn't help but look at Bernard, he was the person among the group who was least worried about Bernard, not that he knew why anyways but he felt Bernard wouldn't just go down like that, even if his ranking was just rank 1 he had seen before when he took care of even a rank 2 so it could be said he was really surprised this time since he had been able to win against Sonia."Don't. tell me you have been secretly working out on your symbiote bloodline, but I thought you couldn't communicate with your symbiote beast?"
When Bernard heard him, he couldn't help but smile once again he seemed he had underestimated how big of a deal what he had done was, his train of thought had always been not to blow his cover by not using any of his symbiote bloodline skills or abilities, but he had never thought that just using of the free attribute the system gave was also a big deal on its own, especially when he could see the look of surprise on the faces of not only his friends but the students who had come to watch as well.
In many of the low ranks students' eyes he could see stars were sparkling in them, it was like he had suddenly ascended to some high realm in the eyes of these students, he could tell some would soon start considering him their role model, it was like he was telling them even without a symbiote bloodline they could still become very strong with just a beast weapon, although it was true but what they didn't understand was that his case was clearly different.
"Actually, to be honest it was all thanks to Sophia and Emelia who helped me, they recently introduced me to a very famous VR game in the military game hall."Bernard replied."Since you all know I can't communicate with my symbiote beast, this meant my symbiote bloodline would not be able to evolve making me realize that the only way I could become stronger was through beast weapons, especially after playing the game it helped me understand that I have been using my natural ability wrongly.
"So while you guys were inside your rooms, I would sneak out to go play the game just to perfect my natural sense and how I use my beast weapon, also don't forget I have a special affinity with a beast weapon, I realize this more when I used the crystal ball that day in the assembly ground, this was why I was confident that I could defend against ten moves from Sonia," Bernard said mixing truth and lying through his teeth, after all, most..cough...I mean some of the things he had said were true.
"Shit, and you didn't tell me earlier man? only now aren't you such a"good friend" Bernard?"Ryan said, a bit sarcastic as he looked at Bernard.
"Huh, stop acting like I am some kind of bad person, it was not like it was my fault in the first place when Sophia and Emelia introduced me to the VR game someone was busy instead dozing off inside his room having a beauty sleep like some Disney princess while refusing to come, so think about it apparently it isn't my fault," Bernard replied back, and slightly rolled his eyes before looking at Ryan again.
"Well, rather than complaining, shouldn't you be one thanking me instead? We finally found a new teammate to complete our group for the exploration, not just that she is also strong as well, if you aren't happy or impressed why don't you have a match with her, and besides the only reason I won the match was because of my hard work."Bernard said, shrugging his shoulders.
While Bernard said all this, Sonia didn't say anything instead she only stared at him for a moment before turning her head away, she didn't want to recall what happened so she didn't bother to say anything, Bernard couldn't help but look at Sonia and realize she had suddenly become quiet, for the first time he was happy Sonia had stopped acting smug and being arrogant, not that he was mocking her but no one like someone who always looked down on others just because they were more privilege than others or stronger.
"Since I lost I will join your team as part of the bet, I believe even though I lost this time I will still be able to reclaim victory next time, since I have now joined your team, I will do my best to get a high score in the upcoming exploration assessment, hope you don't drag me down."Sonia suddenly said, making everyone surprised.
Bernard realize he had thought wrong about her, her arrogant and proud attitude was already deep and rooted to her core, nevertheless he was glad he was still able to slap the arrogant and prideful attitude of her at least once, after the match and Sonia had fully accepted to join their team, they decided they would meet later on by that time they would then discuss their various roles and other things such as their formation, and what they should do.
It was not like they didn't want to discuss about their roles and formation, but Bernard had taken an excuse to go to the clinic to take care of his injury which had been bleeding for a while, even when Ryan and the girls had insisted on following him he had decided against it, giving them various excuse that would sound convincing.
All throughout he was trying to convince them he could feel his shoulder was starting to heal itself since he was feeling an itchy sensation around his shoulder, making sweat to start running down his face, all he could do was hope his injury won't heal completely and as well hope they would buy the lie he was telling.
