Advent Of A Demonic Vampire Lord

An interesting Offer

"Hey, how about you move into my dorm? I'm sure you don't like staying at home," Taylor suddenly said to Ryan.

As if he didn't hear what the boy said, Ryan turned around and gave him a 'what did you just say' look.

Taylor understood the meaning behind those eyes and so he chuckled before replying. "Well, I'm certain that you aren't living fine wherever you are. Instead of having to wake up to meet the same ugly faces every moment, how about you pack your stuff and come live with me in the dorm? It's better than staying in a cold house, am I not right?"

Yes, he was right but how is he so much aware of the situation in his home? This question was something that troubled Ryan.

"How are you certain that I'm not living happily at home?" He asked with brows knitted in inquisitiveness.

"Do you suspect me or something?" Taylor asked back with a sly smile. "Of course, you are now on the top news in the whole school. Who doesn't know about your ordeals with your step-family, huh? It's everywhere and I happened to hear them just the moment I came to this school."

"Hmm..." Ryan sighed quietly. He was still not able to agree with the boy's answer but he had no idea how to defend himself.

"Are you still contemplating?" Taylor asked, seeing how reluctant he was to agree to his opinion. "Staying with them will only make your life unbearable, besides, you have nothing to lose if you pack into my room. I am a level 6 ability user and I believe no one in this school will make your life difficult as long as I'm by your side."

Inwardly, Ryan liked the idea of moving out of the house. He wanted to be alone without having to worry about anything or even wake up to constantly see the faces of those that loathe him. In his past life, he lived alone, so doing the same here wouldn't be so much of a bad idea.

But then staying with this strange kid was like entering the lion's den. He was still oblivious to the boy's intentions toward him, why he was being kind, and all that to him.

"Hey, can you both hurry up? I'm starving here!" Rina called from the front.

They were almost at the front of the school canteen and she had been standing there for a while now, waiting for the boys to meet up with her but each time she turns around, she would see them, standing at a spot and mumbling to themselves. It had gotten her slightly upset.

"Let's hurry, I'm also starving!" Ryan said to Taylor and then hurried away.

The trio walked into the canteen, all eyes were on them. They looked at Rina and Taylor in admiration and envy while they looked at Ryan in disdain. They would whisper insults at him and then laugh out loud to his hearing.

It was expected to be because of his power level which was only the number 2.

Unsurprisingly, this didn't bother or matter to him. He was already used to that kind of attitude right from his past life and so little things like insults mattered nothing to him. He only hope that they would not come to attack him.

"Let's order and then go over there," Rina said and pointed at a table. They all agreed and then went ahead to order some food.

Ryan wouldn't have been ordering any food because he died with no money on him but thankfully, he was able to see some money saved inside a box belonging to the old Ryan. The other Ryan must have been a money-minded person to have saved such an amount of money, it's only a shame that he was no longer alive to reap the fruit of his hard labor.

They quickly made their order and then headed to the table to sit down. When they got there, they were just about to sit down when Alex came into the canteen, followed by a group of boys who were behind him.

The moment he spotted Ryan and Rina together, anger swelled up in his chest and he marched to where they were.

"What are you still doing with this failure? I heard his power level is just 2," He walked up to Rina and demanded an answer.

Ryan noticed the number 5 on his wrist and so he ignored his presence and went ahead to sit down, his friend Taylor also sat down but his eyes were completely glued on Alex and Rina, no one else saw this but his lips were curled up in a smirk.

"How does that affect you?" Rina questioned. "It's my choice to be with him, and not yours. Or have you forgotten what I told you yesterday?"

He turned and glared hatefully at Ryan.

The desire to teach him a lesson filled his head and his hate for him thwarted his sense of reasoning. Before anyone could grasp what was happening, he rushed at him and pulled him by the collar, slamming his face right on the table.

He had used so much force on that attack that soon, blood was seen trickling down from the injury on one side of his face.

The students around gasped in shock but no one dared to rush to the scene, they all gave a long distance from where the whole thing was happening.

"Ryan!" Rina gasped as she stared at his bloodied face.

She rushed to touch him but Alex stopped her from doing so, he pushed her into her seat and then went ahead to attack him again but Taylor dived into action.

"Don't you have some manners?" Taylor asked as he blocked his path. No one saw him when he made his move. His voice sounded calm yet it was intimidating.

"I have no business with you, stay out of this!" Alex warned him but the latter didn't feel any slightest bit of fear rather, he was smirking.

"Tell me... How can I stay out of this when he has already become my business?" Taylor asked him. "You've been wanting him out of your house right? How about we make a deal?" Taylor went further to ask him.

"What deal?" Alex asked with raised brows.

"Don't lay your hands on him again and in exchange for that, he moves in with me... This way, you won't have to see him whenever you wake up."

An interesting offer!

Alex had always wanted Ryan to leave, how did Taylor know about it or should it be called a coincidence?

Ryan stared at Alex, the latter was staring back at him. He seemed reluctant to let him go free, but then the offer was something he wanted.

"Fine!" He said after a while. "You better keep your deal and not let me see him again because the next time I do, I'll damage that pretty face of his!" With that, he left the canteen along with his lackeys.
