Chapter 171 Sophia Finally Joining The Fight

When Bernard heard what he said he didn't become angry nor did he respond instead he seemed like he was mulling over what he had just said, of course, he knew the second-year student would be very happy if he went ahead and pierce the rank 4 second-year student he had taken as hostage, besides that the invisible second year was confident he wouldn't be able to cause any significant harm to the rank 4 student.

,m Although he was sure the invisible second year would want nothing more if he killed the rank 4 student, he also knew it was likely he also wasn't placing his bet on that happening as well since he couldn't kill his hostage unless he wanted to give the second years a reason to take both him and Sophia out, the only thing left for him to do was to naturally release him.

However, from the very beginning, he had no intention of doing either of them he was only stalling for time, since the time was almost right he had no need for a hostage again, so from behind the rank 4 students he wrapped his arm around his neck and began to choke him, using all his strength it didn't take long before the rank 4 student fell on the ground unconscious.

'So much for taking in a hostage, anyways no point lamenting over the death of the chicken.'Bernard thought to himself before he looked at the area the invisible second-year student was standing.

The moment the rank 4 student fell to the ground, he didn't need to look around before he knew what was going to happen next, like a chain reaction several energy crystal balls fired at him from all corners they came out fast and swift that even the energy crystals he had changed into shields could not last much longer and began to shatter one after the other.

Bernard ignored all these and looked at Sophia, who was on his back all these while, this time he was going to let her down from his back, this was the reason he had been stalling for time once there was enough time her symbiote bloodline would auto begin to heal her, but even with that she needed to have sufficient time, but he knew the invisible second-year student would not be so generous to give them that.

This time he no longer needed to carry her on his back, since she could now participate in the fight, as he was blocking his surroundings naturally the invisible second-year couldn't see what was happening nor was he aware Sophia had recovered most of her strength, so he was definitely in for a big surprise Bernard thought to himself.

As soon as Sophia had come down from his back, she couldn't help but look at him although her expression was still cold it now had a tinge of softness in them, all his actions felt completely strange making her confused, not only that he try to save her even when he knew it was impossible he still did.

What's more, he had managed to survive for about almost thirty minutes even with her on his back, which would have been a burden to anyone, this made her think about why he was helping and wondered if he had any ulterior motives for doing so.

Considering the situation they were in, no one would risk their lives to save a complete stranger, especially when this stranger knew some of your secrets, rather they would pray for the death of the person, after all if the person died their secret would once again be safe and known only by them.

After staring at him for a moment, she soon paid attention to her surroundings and noticed due to the fact Bernard had been using the energy crystal for a long time, most of them were already damaged, what more the invisible second-year student had been firing non-stop at them and in greater numbers.

At this moment, the attacks had once again stopped and Bernard was sure the invisible second year was trying to reinforce his energy crystals that had been damaged with another one, seeing this he was sure the next attack that would come next would be even more deadly it was just like the last time when a single attack from him had cost him seven health points.

Bernard couldn't help but gulp down his saliva, if he was to receive another attack like that type, he was sure even if he could block some he would still be hit by the rest, however, he couldn't help but look at Sophia.

He still didn't know what she was up to and what she would do when the invisible second-year attacked again, but at the same time, he was eager to find out. He had no choice anyways, except he wanted to expose himself and blow his cover, there were two things he didn't want to do, one of which was to reveal his true power and heal himself in public.

Even if they didn't give him out as the culprit and the vampire the academy thought he was immediately, everyone would finally know he was hiding his strength and that would give the academy another reason to be suspicious of him and it wouldn't take long before they figured out he was truly the one behind those incidents, by that time he would be in big trouble.

This was why he had agreed to whatever Sophia had proposed without overthinking it, since he didn't want to blow his cover, and nor did he want to give the academy any reason to interrogate him for the second time.

As Bernard was lost in thoughts, he soon noticed Sophia had taken control of the remaining energy crystals. Just as the invisible second-year student, was reinforcing his energy crystals to fire a powerful attack at Bernard, that was when he sensed something and created a shield of energy crystals, as he did several spikes created from energy crystals shot straight at him.

When these spike's energy crystals failed to reach him, they stopped and suddenly started to move back towards where Bernard was, as the invisible second-year student turned around he could see Sophia standing there, and behind her was Bernard.
