The Vampire Cat System

Chapter 37 Life In The Academy

The next morning, at 7:am, there was a loud ringing noise that sounded almost like an emergency alarm throughout the whole dorm in the academy. While the second-year and third-year students who heard this calmly woke up, the first year's students instead including Bernard woke up with panic-stricken expressions thinking the academy was under an attack or something, it was not until they ran out of their rooms did they realize it was the academy alarm for everyone to get dressed and start preparing for the academy for the day.

When Bernard woke up amid the commotion, the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to "meow" five times until the system eventually sent him a notification message.

[daily quest has been successfully completed]

[+5 exp has received]

[Total: 75/100 Exp]

Seeing this, Bernard smiled with a bit of embarrassment even though this was the only way for him to get exp, he still felt it was a bit absurd however amid his little emotion he was also grateful for the fact he could get exp. Bernard stood up as he got ready for the day, firstly he brought out the military clothes that were given to him, which were just a pair of boots, a jacket, shirt, and trousers.

After he was done, he quickly rushed to the boys' bathing room that had begun to become crowded with various students, although confused he kept looking around him as Bernard walked by he got to see students forming several sets of orderly lines, it was at this point Bernard realized what was happening.

The reason was simple, yet intriguing. The reason behind this seemed to be people who were ranked 5 symbiote users, the rule was as follows, students of the same power ranking should form a line of their own, and just like that there almost five different lines in front of him.

Each of these lines could only move forward according to their ranking, the rank 5 students were to go first then the rank four 4's, 3's, 2.s, and finally before it would be the rank 1 students' turn. When Bernard finally got to join the line, he realized just how brutal higher rank students were if anyone tried to disobey their rules and cut the line.

Even though there were students who felt angry and thought whatever they were doing was inappropriate, however, after watching what happened to that particular student, they had no choice but to swallow their anger and complaints.

He looked around as Bernard could see fear appearing in some of the students' faces, this made him realize there were those who still thought this new environment was some sort of Disney paradise and what they had seen was serving as their wakeup call, kicking them right into the true reality of the academy.

At this moment Bernard was looking at his bracelet that was displaying, 8:am, he had realized something with the glass bracelet even though it showed his power ranking most of the time it still had other functions, such as displaying the time, navigation, and others he had yet to explore.

Everyone had woken up by 7:00 am however due to the panic and long lines with the queues, most of them had left the bathroom by 8:00 am. After he was done dressing up, suddenly Bernard felt his vision blur for a split second and the next moment he could feel little streams of pain gathering beneath his chest to his stomach.

It was at this moment, that he realized just how unusually hungry he was and every second he spent would gather up streams of pain in his belly.

'Damn, I have almost forgotten I need to eat something before I run out of energy.'

Bernard thought inwardly as he held his stomach a bit tightly, the moment he walked out of his room he could see Emelia it seemed like they had walked out of their rooms at the same time.

However, he knew she was likely waiting for him since he was the only person she was close to in the academy. Just before they could begin to walk to the cafeteria they could see someone walk out of a room just beside their own, to their biggest surprise the person was none other than Sophia.

To cut the long story short, Sophia decided to join their group of two making them now three. Ahead of them they could see a large hall built a bit plain looking and nothing fancy, they also realized most of the teleportation devices they had been allowed to use previously had been shut down or to be precise in order to use them they needed special points.

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 a clickbait.

After getting over their surprises, 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 in their artistic taste.
