The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 29 Unexpected Encounter

Now it was different, it wasn't just making him feel overpowered but also a sense of accomplishment. The only downside of all of this was, that he felt the system was leading him by the nose.

Beneath, all of his feelings were fear for the future, filled with uncertainty. Needless to say, while he couldn't wait to see what would happen when he finally reached the system milestone.

He didn't believe the system would give him something for free just like that, without wanting something in return.

Bernard thought the system was powerful but far from making him instantaneous strong. He had no quests, all he had at the moment, was to avoid triggering a sun penalty, and the occasional cat noise quest. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

Which left him with all the time to not only do more quests but understand the system.

Since back on Earth, it was no rare knowledge about how a system works, having a system meant he had to understand it, without forgetting he had greater potential than others, and since his system seemed like those from Webnovels, or at least alike. He could hope for that to be also true with his system.

Also, from what he could see, his system was no different from those he used to read about, however, the problem was the amount of quests he was getting from the system.

As Bernard was walking he quickly dismissed all thoughts, when he looked ahead of him. He quickly realized the students passing by had different kinds of looks on their expressions as they passed by the commotion that was happening ahead.

Although he felt what was happening was unusual, even more so how those who were walking by seemed unbothered almost as if they were already used to such scenes.

It was a bit crowded with students, it just so happened the students who were spectating had two ranks higher than him.

Noisy discussions were coming from them as they looked at two students getting beaten.

Most of them had taunting expressions, as they watched gleefully. Chatting and discussing how many more hits one among the students could take.

Although Bernard thought it was unfortunate for them, just like those passing by and weren't strong enough to interfere with the bullies since he also couldn't do anything, he might as well just ignore them.

Just then as he was about to mind his business, he quickly realized something as he looked ahead just in the nick of time to catch a glimpse of the two students getting bullied.

At this moment, Bernard was quite surprised not because of how they were being dealt with, but because one among those two students had taken the same test and gotten the same result as himself when they first arrive.

'Ryan Stone?' Bernard thought as he immediately recognize him, it was the same person who had a bunny as his symbiote beast. At first, he didn't understand why he was being beaten up together with another student until he realized the other person who was beside him was in fact Ryan's Stone old friend, who had allowed him to join their groups of rank 3's.

The strangest thing was, that the bully himself was quite weak in comparison to Ryan Stone's friend on his glass bracelet was displaying a rank of 2.5.

Looking at the badly shaped student, Bernard found what was happening to be very bizarre at least according to the significance of just a single rank. Were there really rank 2's who could easily take on those of a much higher rank than them?

However, looking at the bracelet of those students on the others in the hallway with taunting and gleeful expressions, he quickly realized the only reason the student was being beaten so badly by a lower rank student was probably to humiliate him for mingling with a rank 1 symbiote user.

He finally guess their intentions were not only to humiliate him but to also make him feel how small and insignificant he was even among those of rank 3's, on their bracelets he could see some who had the ranking level of 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.5.

Looking at the one with a rank of 3.5, he seemed to be the leader of the other rank 3's as he stood among them, besides his feet was what seemed like a crocodile but bigger and dark, within its jaws was a jaguar-like a creature with more furs and fierce looking that was wimping continuously as it looked at Ryan's friend beside the hallway wall.

In comparison to him who was beginning to bleed, Bernard thought Ryan instead was being given a VVIP treatment with nothing but only light bruises.

He reckoned that if he tried to help, he would probably be the next Ryan. The last thing he wanted to do was get himself involved with a bunch of bullies, who could literally beat the sh*t out of him. If they could beat two students in public, with one already bleeding without the school authorities even bothering to interfere, him interfering would definitely make no difference.

After a few moments of contemplating, his mind was once again calm. If he was strong enough he would have given a hand but since he wasn't, going was nothing but a suicidal mission.

Muffled groans could be heard resonating continuously, as the rank 2 students kept punching Ryan's friend.

Since there was no other way around his dormitory, Bernard made up his mind to neither look nor interfere as he walked forward, a bit tensed. As he was walking by, he pretended not to see what was happening.

Just when he thought, he wasn't being looked at, Bernard heard a voice that made him shake in his track. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"Hey, Kid did you just pass without greeting your seniors?"

One of the rank 3's said as he sized up Bernard.

Bernard began to walk faster, As he pretended not to have heard him talking.

"Piece of sh*t, take one more step and you would know how f*cked up you are gonna be." Bernard heard the voice, saying again this time with a much harsher tone and threatening manner.
