"Even though you don't have an ability, you will still have to go through the tests so that your power level will be accessed," The female instructor said to Ryan and then pressed the button she had initially pressed.
The bright light engulfed the five of them, causing them to close their eyes and when they reopened them again, they were surprised to see themselves in a grass field."This is where your tests will be taking place," she announced and pointed at the barrier that was some miles away from where they were standing. "Your targets will come out from there, hit as many as you can without getting hit by any of them!"Just as she finished instructing them, black ball-like objects began to emerge from the barrier."You are first, so begin!" The instructor, of course, said to Ryan who nodded in reply and walked further to the center of the land.'So I'll just hit as many as I can.' Ryan thought as he waited for the targets to start coming at him.Soon, he got into the action by hitting the ball-like objects with his fists and trying his best not to get hit by any of them.It was taking quite a while and momentarily, the speed of the targets increased, making it difficult for him to dodge the attacks. He didn't want to fail just yet and so he had to put in more of his best and continue dodging.Running around the whole place would eventually wear anyone down and so it was for Ryan. He could not keep up with the speed, especially when it increased the third time. Just as he speculated, he got hit by one of the targets, signaling the end of that test. He was breathing heavily but that didn't concern the female instructor."Your next test is punching this mechanical drum, now go for it!" She instructed.He was quite stunned and curious about how the female instructor was able to make things appear and disappear. This large mechanical drum wasn't there initially, and as such, he was interested in knowing what ability the lady has.He headed to the mechanical drum and got prepared to punch it as instructed. After stretching his arm, he got ready and then punched the drum with all the strength within him.On the surface of the drum displayed the number ten.He turned afterward to see the look on the instructor's face and just as he thought, she was looking at him in disappointment. But what could he do? He sighed and walked back to where he was standing before."Agility 10, strength 10. Ryan White, your ability-power level is 2 which means you are a level 2 ability user!" The instructor announced and then noted it down on her tablet. Once she finished writing it, the number 2 appeared on his wrist."Thank you," Ryan mumbled to the instructor and then backed away from there.The next to be called was Rina.She walked forward confidently without sparing anyone a glance. She stood in the center of the field, waiting for the test to begin.Five random targets appeared across the land, she quickly formed an ice spear and tossed it at the first near target, hitting it dead on. She repeated it four more times at an incredible speed."So hers is an ice ability," Ryan noted as he stared at her interestingly.For the next test, Rina was even more outstanding. She began to gather ice in both of her palms and then after a minute of gathering her power, a huge ice pillar shot out from her hands and hit the center of the mechanical drum. It rang louder than it had before and the numbers kept going up until it eventually reached 30."Wow! No wonder she had the guts to play me dirty," Taylor noted with a thoughtful expression on his face.Ryan immediately realized that it was a good thing the both of them didn't fight, otherwise, Taylor would have ended up becoming dead meat."That's an impressive action," the female instructor praised Rina for her efforts and then noted it down on her tablet, as she noted it down, a number appeared on Rina's wrist. "You are among the first five students to be a level 5 ability user in the whole school. Congratulations!"Rina beamed and walked back to her spot."How was my performance?" She whispered next to Ryan.'You did well," He replied with a warm smile that made her blush.The next person to be called was Eve.Just like Rina, Eve confidently marched to the center of the field and stood. She stretched out her hand and a long spear appeared in it.The moment five targets appeared, she threw the spear at them. Everyone had their attention on her, they wanted to see how she was going to deal with the five targets at once.She on the other hand had her attention solely on the spear. Right before everyone's eyes, the spear suddenly split up into five, and each of them went straight to their own target."Oh, mine! How the hell did she do that?" Taylor gasped with interest. "What is it called again?... Telekinesis, I see..." He replied to himself and then beamed.On the next test, she went ahead and did what Rina did. She sent her spear to the mechanical drum and it hit it, causing a loud noise to be heard. The numbers kept going up until they eventually got to number 20."Impressive as well, level 4 ability user. That is a good result," the instructor said after she was done noting the result on her tablet.Eve did not react, it was as though it didn't matter to her, or maybe she wasn't happy with the result. She marched back to where she was standing and stood beside her brother who whispered some words to her as if encouraging her or something."Taylor, you are next!" The instructor called."Wish me luck, bro!" Taylor whispered to Ryan before heading to the center of the field. There he stood, waiting for the test to begin.The five targets appeared before him and he got into a stance.Others may not be curious about him but Ryan was. He seemed very much curious about what ability this playful yet strange boy had.Flamy particles began to gather around his palms and after some minutes, a large flame arrow was soon formed. He stretched out his hand and a bow appeared on it.The bow didn't look all that impressive but it was eye-catching. The body of the bow was made of some beast skin and it looked extremely powerful, at least, one would know from the aura it was emitting.He placed the large arrow in between his bow and aimed it at his targets. In the next second, the arrow was seen flying at an extremely high speed toward those targets. The arrow hit the first one and as expected of it, it was supposed to hit the other targets but it didn't hit them. But suddenly, the remaining four targets soon began to disappear until none was left."Hmmph! The boy has got some skills," Rina could not help but note. She never thought that the boy who seemed like a pervert would actually be skillful this way. "The fire ability looks pretty nice, no lie.""Sure." Ryan couldn't agree less with Rina. Each of them was impressive in their way, well except for him. He seemed not lucky as they were.Taylor moved to the next test, he made the same arrow and sent it toward the mechanical drum. The arrow hit the drum hard, so much that an ear-piercing sound was made out of it. The number on it kept going high until it eventually reached the number 60."That's great!" The female instructor clapped happily. "You are the first student to become a level 6 ability user in this school, this is awesome!" She beamed and noted down the result on her tablet.Taylor smiled widely and then walked back to where he was standing before. He nudged Ryan on the arm and winked at him."How was I?" He asked him."Not bad," He replied flatly."Not bad? Hmm... are you jealous or something?" Taylor could not help but ask and laugh slightly at the end."Jealous my ass!" Ryan mumbled and looked away. He wasn't in any way jealous as Taylor had claimed but inwardly, he could not hide the fact that he was impressed with his power.It was the last person's turn and so he sighed and looked ahead, he was also eager to know how good this cold-faced male twin was.Elvis walked directly to the center of the field and got ready for his test.He had the earth ability and so the moment those targets popped out, he stormed his foot on the ground and created spikes of rocks, and shut them towards the targets. Although he wasn't all that impressive like the others, he was certainly better than Ryan.He quickly moved to his next test and then stormed his foot on the ground again. A large rock rose into the air and aimed directly at the mechanical drum.*Boom*A loud noise resounded in the field at the impact.Surprisingly, the drum didn't break as expected of it."Impressive, you're overall score is 50. You are also a level 5 ability user!"After the test was over, the female instructor guided us back to the school while the other students went up for their test.The twins parted ways while Rina, Ryan, and Taylor stayed together."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
"Wish me luck, bro!" Taylor whispered to me before heading to the center of the field. There he stood, waiting for the test to begin.The five targets appeared before him and he got into a stance.Others may not be curious about him but I was. I was very much curious about what ability this playful yet strange boy had.Flamy particles began to gather around his palms and after some minutes, a large flame arrow was soon formed. He stretched out his hand and a bow appeared on it.The bow didn't look all that impressive but it was eye-catching. The body of the bow was made of some beast skin and it looked extremely powerful, at least, one would know from the aura it was emitting.He placed the large arrow in between his bow and aimed it at his targets. In the next second, the arrow was seen flying at an extremely high speed toward those targets. The arrow hit the first one and as expected of it, it was supposed to hit the other targets but it didn't hit them. But suddenly, the remaining
As if I didn't hear what the pale-looking boy said, I 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 well 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 me."How are you certain that I'm not living happily at home?" I asked with brows knitted in inquisitiveness."Do you suspect me or something?" Taylor asked back with a sly smile. "Of course, you are now a little star in the whole school. Who doesn't know about your ordeals with your step-family, huh? It's everywhere and I happen to hear them the moment I came to this school.""Hmm..." I sighed quietly. I was still not
"Is my face damaged?" I asked Taylor after Alex and his lackeys had left."Not that much but you'll need to get it treated," Taylor replied while checking my face.The old Ryan was more good-looking than me, at least, he had long white hair that fell behind his face, a pointed nose, and a chiseled jaw. He had the features of a sixteen years old boy, unlike me who looked like a fourteen years old kid suffering from a disease.This God-given face will I tend with care and not let it get damaged by anyone, not even during fights."Then what are we waiting for?" I asked as I stood up. "Let's go to the school clinic and get my face treated immediately."Rina wanted to follow us but I disagreed."It's best if you go your own way now, we have nothing in common, please." After saying this to her, I left with Taylor."Do you think it's the best choice?" Taylor asked me after we might have left the canteen.At this point, I didn't care to know if it was the best choice or not. If she continued
After the surprise test, the school closed for the day.Heaven knew how exhausted I was by that time, the test was something I did not expect to be brain-cracking. I had written what I think is right and now, I'm relying on my luck to pass it.I met up with Taylor and we briefly talked about the moving-in of a thing. Tomorrow is going to be a weekend and so I'll have to move in tomorrow. After talking with him, I left him and headed home.Upon arrival, I saw the mother and son duo waiting for me in the sitting room. The moment the lady saw me, she stood up and blocked my way."What are you still doing here? I thought Alex told you to leave this house for good?" She asked while eyeing me like I was some pest... Or maybe I am actually."He did, but am I supposed to leave empty-handed?" I asked her and rolled my eyes at her.Just as I expected, she got more infuriated, "You son of a bitch!" She yelled and rushed to slap me.Calling Ryan's mother a bitch was like calling mine a bitch. How
"Argh!" I groaned as I opened my eyes. Looking around, I was in my room and on the floor. "Huh? How did I end up sleeping on the floor?" I asked myself in surprise. Surprisingly, I could not remember anything from last night. How and why I ended up sleeping on the floor."It's 6 am already," I mumbled and decided to get up.I took off my clothes and went to take my bath. I could not wait to leave the house once and for all.After dressing and all that, I carried my bags and left my room. They were still sleeping and so by the time they'll be awake, they won't see me in the house. With a sigh of relief, I opened the door and walked out of it.Getting outside, I was surprised to see Taylor waiting for me by the side of the gate. The moment he saw me, he smiled and rushed over."I thought you would not come out again," he said with a smile."Why wouldn't I?" I asked back and he replied with a shrug. "Let's just go," I said to him and began to walk.He helped me with one of my bags and
Entering inside, I was quite fascinated with the view.It was thrice the size of a normal dorm back in my previous world. The bed was large enough to fit more than two people, and the room itself was decorated with blue curtains and some family photos. In these photos were six individuals — The older man and woman, a young man and a lady by his side, and then Taylor and a little girl by his side. "They are my family," he replied to my curiousness. "My father and mother, big brother and sister and that's me and my little sister.""You've got a wonderful family," I said to him, earning a smile from him.I noticed something about the rest of his family members except for him."Their hair is a mixture of red and white but why is yours just red?" I asked him. Instead of replying to me, he smiled and walked into one of the smaller rooms there. His silence meant that he didn't want to tell me anything and so I had to respect his decision, not minding whatever reasons he may have.I helped th
"Ah, goddam it!" I groaned while holding my stomach. I was standing by the door and waiting for the two boys to be done changing clothes. It was already past twelve and we were yet to have our breakfast. I get it if maybe Taylor isn't the food type and if probably, Ray doesn't want to eat because of what happened earlier but that doesn't mean we can't go to the canteen... I am damn hungry! The last time I ate was at the canteen yesterday, I had nothing for dinner and so it is expected of me to be hungry. These two boys didn't want to go out initially but after pleading for minutes they decided to follow me, but even at that, they were still dragging their feet. "Can you two be fast? Please, ah!" I yelled impatiently at them. I could not get a hold of myself, I have never felt this hungry before, it was as if I haven't had anything to eat for days or possibly weeks."Sorry for keeping you waiting," Ray replied as he approached me.I glanced at him and then nodded, it was not him t
'How's is he still moving freely? I've tried all the sword skills I learned, and I've also exhausted myself in the process yet...'"Hey, don't tell me you wanna stop now. This is becoming more interesting and I like it," Ryan said to the boy, pulling him out of his thoughts.The boy looked at Ryan, his face was devoid of any emotion yet, he felt like he was mocking him."Says who? I am not tired!" He yelled and charged at Ryan. He swung his sword across, aiming to get him at his shoulder. But Ryan dodged and scurried behind him."Why are you suddenly becoming aggressive? I haven't learned enough from you yet," Ryan said and pushed him forward. The boy staggered but held himself from falling. Ryan then stood at a spot and began to swing his sword, his movements were fast but at a normal pace."That—" The boy was dumbfounded as he watched Ryan. "How is that possible?" He mumbled as his face turned sour."Did you think I would be here wasting my time on some insignificant person like you
She soon got immersed in the taste of my lips and the warmth my mouth fetched that she also closed her eyes and kissed me back, awkwardly but with the almost same passion.I sensed that she had loosened up and then I slip my tongue into her mouth, I wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her even more closely and our tongues danced to the same rhythm.She moaned against my lips as I pulled her closer to me, her body was starting to feel hot, she felt like fire was burning at the pit of her stomach which needed to be quenched. She suddenly wrapped her hands around my neck and pulled me closer as well. Feeling something poking her down there, she swallowed hard and looked me in the eyes.I separated my lips from hers and traveled downwards. I kissed her on her neck which made her shiver, followed by a trail of kisses on her neck and collarbone, after that, I went back up to her ears, and softly bit her earlobe before licking it with my tongue which aroused her the more.I stood up
Miles stepped out of the room and saw Ryan standing by the door. He looked at the door and then back at Ryan before pointing at the door."Did you just eavesdrop on my conversation with my folks?" He asked Ryan."No! How could I?" Ryan asked with a shrug."Hmm, I don't actually care if you were. My folks know that you are a vampire and they already know about what happened to Max so there's nothing to worry about," Miles replied with a smirk."To think you purposely let Max be my victim is something I never would have expected," Ryan muttered with a sigh."Are you surprised? Well, I did what I had to do and I don't regret doing it," Miles replied.Ryan gazed at Miles for a while and then looked away. "Will you still help me next time?" He asked."Hmm, we'll see about that when the time comes," Miles replied and kept quiet for some time. "Hey, go pack your bag. We'll be leaving for school soon," Miles announced after a while."Mhm!" Ryan mumbled and went back to his room to get his bag
It happened too suddenly and fast that I wasn't able to dodge the attack and so I was sent flying to the far end of the training hall. I slammed my back against the hard wall and I fell afterward.'What power!' I thought to myself, still in surprise.[-10 blood points][BL: 90/100][Do not let your BL drop to 0]"Damn it! I had really forgotten about this bl of a thing," I mumbled while getting up.For some reason, I wasn't scared at all. I had a creepy smile on my face as I saw the huge alien approaching me.The other students had all run out of the hall, leaving the place to just me and this ugly monster."Hey, wanna tell me how you were able to move without being seen? I love that ability," I said to the alien who looked quite surprised. "What? Why the look on your face? Thought I was dead?" I asked and began to chuckle.The next moment, he was right in front of me and was about to attack me again as he did but I was no fool, I had already gotten myself prepared and so I dodged the
I landed on the floor and watched as the Alien's head rolled on the floor, causing his blue blood to spatter around.Seeing this, my first question was, "How was the rod able to carry out a perfect slash just like a sword?" It was surprising to me but then, not all that surprising. This was a result of the demon energy I put into it."Ryan?" I heard Ray call me. I had totally forgotten that he was there. I looked at him, and for sure, he was staring at me with wide eyes."Don't say a word about this to anyone!" I reminded him just in case. "Really? So... Does that mean we now share a secret?" He asked back. I would be lying if I say that he wasn't pretty much excited about this. The look in his eyes... Hah!"I don't know exactly what you mean, but whatever it is, don't forget what I just told you," I replied to him. *Ding*[One alien killed, complete your task and acquire a new skill]I ignored my system notification and focused on the alien. This alien was too easy to be killed,
Now that the entrance door has been broken, my next move is to go save Ray.The students are all scattered all over the place, some of those who thought they were bold end up dying like chickens while those that were deemed foolish are the ones still alive and fighting for their lives by running to hide or escape.These aliens are so powerful, and that is without a doubt. With their long arms, they attack students from afar, and with their speed, they stop those trying to get past them.*Ding*[Defeat about 10 aliens to acquire a new skill]'What!' I screamed internally at my system request. It wants me to kill about ten aliens in this place, but how am I supposed to do that? I don't even know what my abilities are and I'm afraid that I'll end up going crazy for blood if I exhaust myself. All this but still, I have to fight these aliens if I must survive. 'System, display my stats!' I am in a well-hidden place and so I can view my stats and know the abilities I have. This way, I shou
It was night time and just like the other night, Taylor left again. The moment Ray slept off, I used this opportunity and left as well. I headed to the old building because it was a much better place to do things as long as you don't get seen by other students. Remembering that the school had placed a curfew, I needed to be extra careful so that I won't get caught by any security man.I reached the old building without getting caught and headed to one of the rooms at the far end of it where students will likely not go. After settling down, I used the marker I found in the classroom and then began to draw the picture on the cover of that book. I could still remember the details vividly and so it wasn't difficult for me to draw them.Soon, I was done with the drawing. The next step was for me to cut myself a bit and let the blood drop in the center of it. I took out the knife I came with and cut myself in the wrist, was expecting it to be painful but I didn't feel anything at all. Given
And so now, the whole students are on high alert after hearing about the creed. The creed or not, I am not to be concerned about it. I had a more important thing to do, which is finding out more about vamps. In my previous world, I only read about them or watched them in the movies, I had believed that they were nonexistent until now. For me to have become a vamp was something I did not know would eventually happen to me someday, not like I'm upset about it but it is just too surprising.Although I am not yet certain that I'm a cold-blooded creature at least, the signs are there. My red glowing eyes, my hunger for strength, my highlighted senses... I mean they are what a vamp should have, right?I do not want to make stupid assumptions, it was better to find out myself than rely on a mere analysis made by Taylor. And so during break time, instead of meeting with my roommates at the canteen, I turned around and headed to the school library. An extremely large building on its own.En
I have no idea what happened next but when I opened my eyes, I saw myself in the dorm room. "Ryan, you are awake!" Ray exclaimed next to me. I turned and stared at him, he looked worried as fuck."Where is Taylor?" Instead of answering his question, I asked about him as he was the last person I saw before blacking out. "Ray, you can leave first. We'll meet you at the canteen later," Taylor said as he came out of the bathroom. He briefly glanced at me before returning his gaze to Ray."But you guys haven't told me anything yet," Ray protested with a displayed look."It's why I said, we will meet you at the canteen. Just get going already," Taylor said and gently pushed him out of the room before closing the door."Taylor, I—""What are you?" He asked, not allowing me to make the statement I wanted to.I stared at him in the eyes, he was looking at me strangely. His question... What am I?"I don't know. How about you tell me?" I replied to him.He stared at me for a while and then look
