The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 46 Rising Suspicion
"However, for us, that might not be the case, especially with our rankings."
While Bernard said all of this to comfort her, it was also to comfort himself since he was already feeling bad and slightly regretful about even coming to the academy. It was like back then on earth when he worked harder than all of his colleagues, but since he had no wealthy connections he would be left behind while those who had were promoted.
The feeling of being weak overwhelmed him for a split moment, but then when he thought about the system he was currently in possession of he felt relieved deep down, he hated the fact he couldn't suddenly become op, especially with Mr meow meow sudden disappearance this made him wonder where its gone or what its was doing inside his body, shaking his head he could only sigh with resignation.
He turned around, as he realized Emelia had already stood up and was currently walking away ignoring Ryan's attempt of calling her back. Bernard, would have loved to stop her as well however, he knew both the recent events and what Sophia said made her devastated, lost and confused.
Unfortunately, Sophia was right and they could only accept the fact.
Bernard then turned around to look at Sophia and said. "Sophia, look I can assume you are trying to help us and reshape our view of the academy. However, I think you might have gone a bit far with the way you spoke to Emelia earlier, couldn't you be more gentle?"
"And why should I be? I'm sorry and same time not also sorry. Maybe you don't understand how things work in the academy, but if you continue with such a naive way of thinking and expect to be hidden, you would only attract bigger trouble with such ignorance. The only reason they haven't done anything to you guys is because of me, rather than trying to correct me you should instead be grateful and I suggest you speak some sense into her."
Sophia said with her cold and emotionless voice, before walking away to only God knows where.
"Even though I really hate her guts, maybe you shouldn't have raised your voice at her after all she was the only high-level student willing to talk to us without trash talking us or looking down at us."
"I don't know man, am just tired," Bernard said looking at Ryan, who stood up and patted his shoulder before walking off to the dorms.
Bernard was then left all alone as he sat down on his seat, after a while, he decided to order a few snacks and drinks since he was both angry and hungry. He was not willing to risk his stomach even if he was pissed off, even though he was angry it was not at
Sophia's reaction or her words, but in the second year students who were trying to dictate how they should act and restrict their freedoms and the academy who acted like they couldn't see what was going on.
He had once thought things would only get better after he received a system and arrived at the academy which was so developed compared to the surface civilization planet like earth.
Compared to earth it was far worse since everything was decided not just by birth, and wealth but by power ranking.
Still, no matter how much he thought about it he couldn't do anything but swallowed whatever that was given. He could only act like he wasn't hurt, however when he was powerful enough he wasn't going to sit down and watch them try to control him or those around him, instead, he would wait before going after them, one by one with everything that he got.

Meanwhile, for the past few days, Sophia had been trying to figure out which aboriginals was Bernard's parent, no matter how much she sat down and thought about it she couldn't come to a final conclusion. However, on her way to the academy dorm she had heard a student cursing loudly, this made her slow down her stride, from afar she slowly listened to what the student was saying out loud.
After listening for a while, to her pleasant surprise, she got to know the boy had gotten into a fight and got his ass beaten until he lost consciousness, however, if it was only that she wouldn't have been surprised it was the fact the person who had beaten him was just a mere rank 1, but then he seems to possess the strength of a rank 4 user almost like he was deliberately hiding his power ranking, however she knew no one would go to the extent of hiding their ability. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
When she was done, Sophia was sure the person they were referring to must have been Bernard, since she has been observing Bernard for a while now so she was quite sure it was him.
However, she suddenly thought about something if he was really that strong, how come was the second-year student able to overpower him that easily? but on second thought she felt whatever that had happened during the meeting with second-year students, it was either he was at his weakened period or he did that deliberately by letting the second year student hit him after he attack, to mislead anyone trying to guess his origin, however, she wasn't sure since she was only making a guess.
The only thing she was confident about was his strength was already at a rank 4 user, if not higher.
Sophia felt that her guess was definitely not far from the truth.
