The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 38 Academy Hierarchy

It came as a surprise to every one of them that arrived yesterday, however, looking at the contemptible gazes of the older years student they finally got to understand it was nothing but clickbait.

After getting over their surprise, they had no choice but to trek throughout most of their walks, as they walked around the academy they got to realize many things.

They got to know apart from those fancy and fantasized areas in the academy, most of the place was rather plain looking, that was just to show the academy could be versatile.

Almost all the buildings they came across, were built with no see-through glass-like walls, surprisingly there were no windows. Even though it had a look modern to the environment, the more they saw and walked around the more it felt like it was some kind of modernized cell that was completely sealed from all corners.

Even after becoming aware of this, they only had solemn expressions and nothing more, it was not like they could do anything including Sophia ash who was always expressionless. This made him realize even though his academy life had just begun, it didn't feel like he was going to live any type of peaceful life from now on, even his social life was already established within the pace of a few words, together with the technological placed on his wrist.

Just like that they finally arrived at the cafeteria, and immediately they walked into the already opened wide hall. They could see different students. Some stood before a queue waiting for their turn, others had just walked in just like them while the rest had steel takeaway plates filled with food.

Besides that they could see large tables placed around the cafeteria, these large tables had various arrangements that could seat from three to ten people at the same time. Taking another look at the tables, Bernard thought maybe there were seat numbers but then realized there weren't, meaning anyone could sit where they liked.

However, that wasn't the most noticeable aspect of the cafeteria, it was the fact student of the same ranking level sat close or stayed at the same tables, this included both the low levels and high levels students.

Emelia took in a deep breath, as she realized what was happening and stared at Sophia who obviously wasn't bothered, her seemingly cold and expressionless face already spoke volumes. Meanwhile, even though Bernard had noticed the weird atmosphere, he didn't really care that much. After all, it wasn't like he could do anything in both situations.

As they were examining their surrounding silently, they could see a bunch of students walking into the cafeteria they acted coldly, aloof and mighty toward everyone from the faces of some second years students Bernard could catch the glimpse of fear, anywhere these students passed there would eventually be a space for them to pass through, everyone only needed a single stare to realize how this was possible.

The reason was very simple, the numbers on these students' bracelets were high levels enough to make most of the students in the queue cower in fear. Not a single person, dared to complain when these students cut the line, as they walked through nonchalantly.

Even though Bernard felt what was happening was unfair, he acted unbothered it was not like he could do anything anyway, or even interfere the fact the system had helped him before wasn't a good enough reason to start thinking he could fight anyone, besides what was the guarantee the system would help him this time, the chance was less than ten percent.

After those students left it was finally their turn to collect their food which was roughly a set of fried plantain chips, fried eggs, and creamy custard.

"How about we sit over there," Bernard said looking at both Sophia and Emelia's expressions, even though they had come together with him, he wasn't expecting them to sit together, the reason was that among them he was the only rank 1 student in their midst.

"Okay, " Emelia nodded after a brief hesitation before they stared at Sophia who reluctantly nodded as well.

Bernard wasn't convinced as he wanted to be sure, they understood they might be taking a risk but then the moment he stared at their expression again, he kept quiet. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

'Yeah, even if I tell them about it they will still likely go ahead with it.' Bernard thought before he began to walk towards an empty spot he could see among the tables.

Bernard could feel they were being watched, as they walked towards the area filled with rank 1 students. He could also feel the glare wasn't friendly but filled with hostility he was sure if it wasn't because Sophia's ranking level was displaying rank 5 the student would have attacked them.

He was sure this was how the school hierarchy was established, there were definitely consequences for those who went against it.

After that, the three of them began to walk to the area where they could see rank 1 students eating the moment they saw them. Many had surprised gazes as they stared at sophia, Emelia, and finally Bernard who acted like he could see nothing.

The three of them then finally sat down, with Bernard sitting in the middle between the girls. As the area gradually became crowded, everyone who passed by would give Bernard surprised stares, however, nobody dared to voice out their surprise he could even feel some had gazes filled with jealousy.

Even though their area was the most filled within the whole cafeteria, it was as silent as a graveyard it was not like they didn't want to talk it was just that they didn't dare to utter any word when they saw both Sophia ash cold expression and the rank level displaying on her bracelet.

It was almost as if a death god was beside them, the fact they had seen how high-rank students bully lower ranks was fresh in their minds, this had struck both fear and terror within their hearts.

The moment Bernard was done with his short prayer, without even looking around him he began to dig the food in front of him as fast as his spoon could move, it was almost as if the hunger he was feeling in his stomach had taken complete control of his body, as he gulps down a large amount of creamy soup, the fried plantain, and fried eggs altogether.

Emelia, who had only taken several bites from her meal suddenly turned around, just in time to see Bernard staring at her food intently.ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
