The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 45 Separation
The four of them left the second-year building when their break time was almost over with a frown on their faces. The cafeteria was where they spent their remaining time. The outburst from the second-year student came as a big surprise not only to Bernard but to everyone as well, this made Bernard realize they were not only trying to shove their authorities down their throats but also a sign of the strong bullying of the weak.
However, it was even worse since they had personally come to issue a warning to them, making him extremely angry and was about to let out what was on his mind when someone stood up before him, the person being none other than Sophia.
Sophia had her usual cold and uncaring expression but this time there was a frown on it, she had always been silent all these while except for today so no one knew what she was about to say or whatnot especially with such an expression she was displaying for her but then her next words made everyone to glare at her.
Ignoring the glares she stared at all of them before her pair of cold eyes landed on Emelia, unlike the rest of them even though she was a rank 2, Emelia was the most fragile in comparison to the boys.
"I suggest we go our separate ways for now!"Sophia cold voice resounded loudly, struck their hearts like a clap of thunder.
After hearing what she said, the looks on their faces dull down with big frowns. Although everyone felt her words were a bit too blunt they couldn't dispute the fact she was also half right.
"Even though they didn't attack us yet, you guys can consider today as them only showing their fangs. Albeit there are few of us in this school that even the military would have to think twice before trying to touch, however, there are things that should be left untold." Sophia's cold voice could be heard again, but this time she was no longer staring at Emelia but Bernard after a few seconds she continued.
"With the strong bullying the weak system in this academy, even if the weak try to get stronger the latter would always try to be better and ahead themselves to make sure the already existed gap between them to not only stay the same but instead increase.
"The same thing goes for those who are weak, to begin with, you cant always rely on your family to always help you if you were about to be killed in some far away starfield do you think they will be able to help you?" Sophia's cold voice sounded beside their ears, while they sat down with thoughtful expressions.
"However, this is where the academy steps in, the academy might not seem strong on the surface however every big organization knows just how powerful they are, while it isn't entirely new the academy has an entire army a force of its own which are full of elites and still continuing to expand. The primary reason why they allow such continuous bullying is to recruit the bullied students, while one student might not seem to be much on the surface imagine hundreds of students getting bullied each day, with some of them having unexplored potential to rival their elites this is why they benefit most from it.
"This is why they are willing to extend their help to anyone willing to agree to their terms, and who are these people that willing to accept such terms?"
"The bullied students since they can be easily manipulated by them," Bernard suddenly answered.
Sophia nodded her head in response to what he said. "Because they can easily be manipulated, that's why they allow students to experience hell for as long as they can before they break down, with how much technologies had improved and evolved to what it is today, any abnormal actions from the students can easily be taken note of, even the walls are embedded with technological gadgets, yet there have been no reactions from the academy.
"What I am trying to say is, each bullying that occurs in the academy is allowed deliberately to lure the weak-minded, even sometimes being sponsored. They turn these students who are willing to see a glimmer of hope into their minions and soldiers." Sophia said calmly, without any changes to her expression almost like she knew everything happening in the academy like the back of their hands.
After hearing all of this, Bernard couldn't help but look at Sophia with a thoughtful expression before looking at Emelia with a soft expression.
"Emelia, I'm sorry, but I think Sophia is right about us going our separate ways in the meantime. Putting up a fight is as good as useless in front of such powerful students, so it is best we follow their rules and comply for now.
"Why should we even bother to listen to them, even if the academy doesn't care about us the best they could do at the end of the day is just bully us." Emelia raised her head as she snapped furiously.
The sudden outburst shocked everyone. No one expected this side of her, it was almost like she couldn't take it anymore and had turned from being harmless to a furious beast.
"Do you really think bullying is all that the second years' students are capable of? If so then you are too naive, as I have said earlier there are those the academy would have to think twice if they want to lay their hands on them." At this moment, Sophia's voice was like cold water acting against Emelia's little fire, quenching the fire before it even got the chance to expand. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
With that, Emelia sat down dejectedly on her seat, Bernard then looked at Sophia and sighed before speaking again.
"Emelia, I know how angry and helpless you might be feeling at this moment. However, I assume Sophia is just trying to help us all. Compare to us, she might be seeing things from the harsh side of reality even than we do. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖
"Maybe you don't know this, but we are still friends and there are times when friends have to take a break from themselves just to make sure they are safe and unharm. That's the situation we are in right now, if we decide to ignore their warnings and break their rules, the academy might decide to intervene for Sophia and you, since you guys possess high rankings."
