Aiden sat on the bed in the hospital ward, lost in his own thoughts.

Thanks to the doctor, he got to hear the full gist of what happened.

Apparently, a Sentry was chasing after the notorious 'night serial killer' who managed to flee after hurting him.

Guilty, the Sentry brought him to the hospital for treatment, footing all the medical bills.

"Tch. Though I wonder what's up with that killer. What did she have to bite me on the neck? is she a fiend attribute magi?" Aiden wondered.

---

"But the main issue is that I missed my school exams. I'll have to retake that session again. Tch. I shouldn't have gone out that night" he gritted his teeth with regrets.

-[Ping! Congratulations! Host has bonded with the Super Vampire System!]

A row of words suddenly appeared on a floating screen before Aiden's eyes.

Not only that, merry sounds of fireworks exploding rang in his head.

"What in the hell.." Aiden cleaned his eyes, but the floating screen didn't vanish.

The words on the floating screen soon changed.

-[Host has sucessfully spent seven days, changing your metabolism to that of a Night Walker]

-[All features of the Super Vampire System has been updated successfully. Check your stats now!]

"Geez! is this for real? did I manage to awaken my mojo during the time when I was unconscious?" Aiden was besides himself with joy.

The current society was a place dominated by Magis. For him, a normal human with no trace of beta force in his veins, he would be the world's number one liar if he claimed he didn't care whether he became a magi or not.

"Looks like fate has decided to shine her awe-inspiring light on me. Though, I do wonder what that 'Vampire' thingy means. Is it the name of my super power?" Aiden got up from the bed, facing the wall.

"Alright.. take this!!" clenching his fist, he threw a punch.

However, there wasn't a sonic boom, or a huge hole on the wall.

Instead, there was a loud miserable howl.

"W-Why? How's this possible?!" Aiden stared at his bloodied knuckles, almost at the brink of tears.

-[Ping!]

-[New Quest Unlocked!]

-[Quest Name: Take Your First Nutrient]

-[You were once a trash who now discovered that you have unlocked a special power. Eager to rise to the top? of course you are. But it is far from easy. Take your first nutrient and experience a boost in your strength!

-[NUTRIENT: Blood!]

-[Volume: 1 litre]

-[Time frame: 24 hours! Tick. Tock]

"B-Blood?!" Aiden gulped heavily when he saw the info of the new quest on the system's panel screen.

Why would he have to take blood to increase his strength? Wasn't it public knowledge that Magis cultivated world energy, molding it into Beta force to increase their strength.

Why was it that this strange 'system' thingy demanded for blood instead?

Things just didn't match up no matter what angle he looked at it from.

"I have finished sorting things out. You are free to go now" the Doctor's voice rang from behind Aiden.

Turning towards the doctor and gulped heavily. That was because he suddenly felt that the doctor's throat looked very pleasant to look at. And at the same time, he felt a strong parchness in his throat.

Damn! he'd never felt this thirsty in his entire life.

-[Your bloodlust grows]

-[Bloodlust : 10/100]

-[12/100]

Aiden panicked. A strong feeling kept prompting him to pounce on the doctor and sink his teeth into his neck. However, he was using all of his will power to resist.

But he didn't know how long he could rein it for.

"T-Thank you doctor" he said with shivering lips as he attempted to remove the hospital gown he was wearing.

"Your clothes are in the bathroom. Also, the Sentry who saved your life instructed that I give this to you" the Doctor gave Aiden a fat brown envelope.

"I'll take my leave now"

After the doctor left, Aiden tore off the envelope.

"Geez! So much money?" he stared at the wads of banknotes in utter shock.

Taking a rough estimate, he counted up to five thousand dollars.

Were Sentries this generous?

Carefully dropping the envelope on the bed, he walked into the bathroom to get dressed.

.

.

-[Your bloodlust grows]

-[34/100]

"Damn I'm about to go crazy!" Aiden gritted his teeth as he trekked down the road, intentionally choosing paths that appeared secluded with less pedestrians.

Good thing he was an expert trekker, so he knew many paths in the neighbourhood.

Whatever bloodlust the 'system' thingy was warning him about, he didn't dare treat it as a mere joke.

A few minutes ago, he had almost pounced on a little girl. Luckily, years of enduring humilation from Rio molded his will power to become extremely sturdy.

Passing through a quiet alleyway with a chilly atmosphere, Aiden trembled as he recalled the incident that landed him in trouble.

"Owww!!" Aiden heard a miserable howl, followed by the release of an intoxicating smell that clouded his senses.

-[Your bloodlust grows]

-[51/100]

"Ngh!!" with eyes taking a shade of crimson red, Aiden sprinted towards the direction the intoxicating smell was coming from.

.

.

"You bastard, how dare you people intrude on our territory huh?"

"Yeah. You Bull Dog gang members are starting to grow the heart of a tiger"

Seven thugs, wearing crimson bandanas surrounded a guy sporting an eye patch and head band with a bull dog symbol, who held his bleeding arm.

"This area belongs to the Crimson Wolf gang. We won't accept any intrusions!"

The Crimson Wolf gang member holding a dagger dripping with blood grinned malicious as he sunk it into the left arm of the Bull Dog gang member.

"Uwaah!" he screamed miserably as blood flowed like a steady torrent.

"Muhahaha. Serves you right trash!" another Crimson Wolf gang member laughed sadistically, kicking the enemy.

"Grr.. Grr.. Grr.. Grr!" suddenly, low beastly growls rang from behind the group.

"And who are you supposed to be?"

Aiden, who stood behind the group ignored the question. His whole attention completely focused on the Bull Dog gang member on the ground.

Or more precisely, the blood flowing from his wounds.

"Brat, how dare you ignore me huh?" the gangsta who had asked Aiden the question frowned with displeasure.

Due to the fact that Aiden's head was bent downward, he couldn't see his eyes glowing red.

"Not saying anything? then I just have to beat you till you speak!"

The gangsta's left arm morphed into the claw of an eagle as he thrust towards Aiden.

The sharp talons gleamed brilliantly as they aimed towards Aiden's head. It was obvious he was going for a kill.

"S.. Scram!!" Aiden swept his clawed palm towards the attacking gangsta, sending him stumbling three metres away.

"You have juuice! food!" Aiden leapt towards the gangsta before he could regain his composure, sinking his teeth which were now fangs, into the gangsta's neck.

"Aiiish!" the gangsta shrieked as he shriveled up at a steady pace.

"Ahhh" Aiden licked his fangs dripping with blood as he tossed the now shriveled up gangsta, like he was discarding trash.

-[Ping! New Quest unlocked!]

-[PREDATOR: Vampires are one of the world's ruthless Predators]

-[Your preys are currently cowering before you. Finish them all]

-[QUEST REWARD: 10 Blood Drachma]

Aiden took a deep breath, relishing the moment as he felt a satisfying sensation coursing through his body.

He didn't know why but it felt so damn good!

He wanted more of that feeling!!

Whoosh!

He charged towards the closest gangsta.

"He's fast!" the gangsta felt his heart sink as Aiden appeared before him, digging his fangs into his neck.

"Kill that monster!" the Crimson Wolf gangsta finally regained his composure as he gave the command to his comrades.

"Monster! die!" a gangsta punched towards Aiden, a sharp black spike piercing towards Aiden's head.

"Hm?" tossing the shriveled corpse away, Aiden met the incoming punch with his own.

BANG!

It was located in a 1st tier city called Gold Spring city and was the most powerful force there, apart from the Viscount Manor. However currently, the gates of Lancelot Academy was wide ajar, welcoming a rapid stream of visitors. This was because, today was the day of the Academy's admission. An event that only happened once a year. The Academy's landscape was ridiculously huge, so was the building structure.

    Silence. Everybody present at the venue of Lancelot Academy's entrance exam stared at Rio like he was a monster. "T-Two Mojos?" "And they are both King tiers!" "I heard the country's number one Sentry has two mojos. But they are just king tier and queen tier talents" "Do you mean to say this kid is even more talented than the country's number one Sentry?" Hearing the audiences discussions about him, Rio grinned smugly. "I'm the best in the world! before my talent, everybody is just trash!" "W-What a pleasant surprise. To think we have a talented youngster in our midst with an innate talent of dual mojos" Teacher Krillin said, barely able to contain his excitement. Innate talent! Unlike normal talent, Magis with innate talent were destined for great things. Talent usually referred to the mojo a Magi wielded. But innate talent.. there was no ranking to it. If a Magi had an innate talent, then they were destined for great things.That was their fate, already set in stone! Since

Due to being a Vampire, his senses were more enhanced than humans. As such, the noise was amplified a hundred times over. It was as if someone placed a megaphone besides his ear and was screaming into it. "First time here kid?" the middle aged man who was walking besides Aiden, smiled when he read his body language. "Hm. I don't know how to address you sir" Aiden replied. "My name is Xavier. What's yours?" "Aiden" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Alright Aiden, let's get you booked up!" Leading the way, the duo arrived at a counter. "I want to book a fight" Mr. Xavier said to the female behind the counter. "Oh? what battle stage please?" the counter lady asked. Mr. Xavier observed Aiden for a bit before responding. "The Beta stage""Alright. Let me prepare the booking. Is your fighter a Mag

    "Nightshade Royal Academy?" Aiden repeated with skpectism. "Tsk. Tsk. It is an Academy owned by the Nightshade Country" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Say what?!" Aiden almost had an heart attack. "You aren't kidding withme right?" he asked suspiciously. In this current world, there were cities, counties, States, dukedoms, kingdoms, empires and continents. The Sentry Association was an organization that had jurisdiction over all Magis. Their counterpart were the Mercenary Fraternity, that often lived in the shadows. However, there also existed noble and royal power that ruled over their own regions in the world. Starting from the bottom were the Lords. They often ruled over hamlets and villages. Then were the Barons who ruled over towns. Viscounts were nobles and rulers of cities. Counts were nobles who ruled over counties. Earls were nobles ranked higher than Counts. They ruled over states. Dukes ruled over Dukedoms, Kings ruled over Countries, Emperors ruled over Continents.As for

    "This is the Academy?" Aiden mumbled as he alighted down from a black limousine. The sheer size and decor of the Academy's building was beyond anything he could ever imagine. Taking a look at the premises, he noticed that all the students came in expensive looking cars. From the grandeur of their movement and the dignified air surrounding them, even an infant could tell that they were all nobles. "Pheew. I can do this" Aiden took a breather as he sauntered towards the school building. At the lobby area, there were four platforms with plaques besides them. Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior "Hm. According to my card. I am at the class D for the Freshmen Students" Aiden mumbled to himself as he followed a group who were headed for the platform with the *Freshmen* plaque besides it. "Though, I wonder what the platform is used for?" he mumbled with curiosity. As if answering his question, a male noble amongst the group stepped on the platform.As soon as he did, the platform got

    Not long after Nyx departure, a new teacher walked into the Class D. It was a female with dark spots underneath her eyes. Her lips were covered in black lip gloss and she was a devilish beauty. Comparing her to the maid at Xavier's house, Aiden shook his head. When speaking of natural assets although the Teacher before him was slightly above average, she didn't come close. "Good morning Class D! I am Lisa, your Geography Teacher!" "Oh. She has a beautiful voice. Not bad" Aiden mumbled to himself. "Hm.. Let's begin our classes then. Today's topic is going to be the distinction of regions.." Lisa began her teaching, which she did for over thirty minutes. If not for her beautiful face, many students (mostly guys) would've dozed off because of just how boring the Geography class was. Very soon, Geography class period ended and the next teacher took over. This time, it was a slender man with delicate skin and feminine features.When the females in the class saw this teacher, their e

Hm? how did you figure that out? don't tell me your mojo is telepathy?" Aiden gave Charlotte a wary look. "Pft. If I had such a mojo, I would be in Class A, not Class D" Charlotte giggled. "As for how I did it, I kinda compared you both skin tone. Not to mention that you both have a dangerous vibe around you" Charlotte explained. "Ohh" Aiden nodded. Grabbing the syrup can, he splayed it on the french fries before tossing it into his mouth. -[Ping! You have ingested a harmful substance!] As soon as the system sent this warning, Aiden felt a sharp pain in his stomach. It felt like a scorpion was clawing at his guts. "Ugh!" he groaned as he held his stomach in pain, sweat trickling down his face. "Are you okay?" Charlotte sharply noticed the look of pain in his face. "I.. I think I ate something poisonous" Aiden stutte

    "Mold beta to connect to our mojo?" the Students murmured to themselves. "Watch" The Mojo Analysis Teacher brought out his palm. "Fire gauntlet!" A burst of brilliant flames wrapped his hands, reaching his elbow. "This is an hex I casted. My mojo is pyrokinesis or flames manipulation. By molding and connecting the beta force to my mojo, I was able to cast this hex" The flame gauntlet dispersed. The Teacher continued. "However for novices like you with limited amounts of beta force, casting hexes would easily sap away most of your beta force since you still haven't learnt control. And when that happens, your opponent will exploit such an opening to take you down. So it is advised to save your hexes for last, when you are confident in taking down your opponent with that single hex" "Now. To connect your beta force to your mojo recquires meditation.

A wry smile soon appeared on his lips when he noticed he was currently at the entrance of the dojo formerly run by Boss Kaine. How the hell did he even wind up here? "Bastard! are you ignoring me?!" Looking over, Aiden's finally discovered the culprit. It was three unfriendly looking men in tank tops. Besides them was an engineer who held a wide sheet of paper with a blueprint drawn on it. Aiden's attention was instantly drawn by the blueprint. "What's that?" curiosity got the better part of him. "Arrogant. I asked you a question and you dare reply with another question? who tht hell do you think you are?!" the ringleader flared up. "Look at his tattoo!" one of his lackeys called out to him urgently. All eyes instantly fell on Aiden's left wrist. Or to be more precise.. the tattoo.. It was the tattoo of a skull head with two elegonated

    According to teachings at the Academy, The way of comprehension is simple, but at the same time difficult as well. First, you have to sink your consciousness into your Neidan Region/ Conscious Paradox.. Every Magi has a Neidan Region within their body. Next, observe the various Neidan Strokes you find in your Neidan Region. Once you think you have comprehended enough of these Neidan Strokes, try visualizing the patterns like you are writing them down on your Hex Tome. if the Neidan Strokes pattern belongs to an Hex, it will be inscribed in your Hex Tome and a new Hex will be formed. And when casting an Hex, a Magi has to rearrange the specific Neidan strokes to form the necessary pattern, creating an hex pattern. Since their Hex Tome is linked to their Conscious Paradox, the formation of the Hex pattern appears within it. Once the pattern is completed, the Hex pattern flies out from the Hex Tome, manifesting in the real world, successfully casting the Hex. If the Magi's control or

    There was a stage in life where your mind wanders so far off, it would seem like the world had been put in a standstill and you are trapped within your own mind. This was called being lost in thoughts.. Currently Aiden had his back kissing the sheets of his bed as he stared dazed at the ceiling of his room, lost in thought and completely unaware of the crickets chirping or night owls hooting. In his mind, he was currently replaying the explosive truth he learnt earlier in the day. Apparently although he and the Blood Dragon Legion managed to defeat General Jazz and his cohorts, that other party landed an ultimate blow that killed him. As for the three months time he spent in slumber, it was called the Cold Slumber.. a state Vampire undergoes when they suffer mortal death.

    When Aiden returned back to the mansion, it was almost evening time. As for his afternoon, he spent it on a casual stroll around Fenris City. Just like what Akira told him, the Blood Reapers gang had been completely overrun.. all their territories now belonged to the Red Sharks or the gangs affiliated with them. As for the Academy, he only observed the gates from a safe distance before leaving. He had no idea why he had been in a deep slumber for three months however one thing he could confirm was that a lot of drastic changes had occured while he was in slumber. First and foremost, all his acquired skills seemed to have reverted down to lv0 meaning he could no longer use them. Not to mention the addition of new stats. Last time he checked, there was no energy stat for his mojo. However Aiden had a feeling that whatever these changes were, it had to have something to do with the Hidden Realm of Hallowmere. The second biggest change was Xavier's death! "First my parents, now my

    "Tell me really, what the hell is going on?!" Aiden was starting to forget how many times he'd asked this puzzling question as he sat besides Akira inside a bar. "Want a drink?" Akira raised her glass at him, slushing the red content within. "No. I prefer drinking straight from the veins.." "Hmm.." Akira took a small sip. "Do you remember this bar?" her tone went serious. "Y-Yeah? Doesn't Mobby Steel run the place?" Aiden shrugged. Last time he checked, this Mobby Steel in particular was a member of Division Two in the Blood Reapers gang.. to be more precise, he was Alaric's subordinate. "Don't tell me there's an ambush lurking in the corner.. after all, Alaric has some beef with me.. and you just happened to be the root of it all.." Aiden squinted his eyes suspiciously. Ignoring his comment, Akira took a sip before she continued speaking. "Alaric deserted the Blood Reapers. He's now a Red Shark.." "Eh?" Aiden was taken aback.

The skies above was cloudy and once in a while, a drizzle of rain would descend. Perhaps because their head was pointed down, the hooded figure ended up bumping into a group of three tough looking men. "Hey brat! watch it!" the one at the middle scowled. He had the tattoo of a roaring viper across the left side of his neck and a thick blunt trapped between his lips. "Walk away.." the hooded figure mumbled as they attempted to walk around the group. However, the three tough looking men were not having any of it. "You sure are gutsy brat" they blocked the path of the hooded figure. "You dared bump into Boss Kian? if you don't want to lose an eye, better kowtow, apologize and leave your wallet behind" the Thug at the left snickered while sneakily exposing the sharp dagger hidden in his pocket.

Instead, he now had an eye patch covering the left side of his face while his previously supple skin was now a bronze tan.

    Kicking the ground with the back of her feet, Petrova leaped into the air, trying to draw as much distance as she could afford.. At the same time, she brought out three arrows from the quiver behind her as she nocked it on her bow, tugged and then released the strings.. From removing the arrows, all the way to nocking and then releasing them, Petrova's movement was fluid, fast and graceful. Boom Three red lights streaked into the clouds. Followed by a loud bang, about thirty red arrow lights descended down upon General Jazz like a meteor shower. Bang! Bang! Bang! The arrow lights easily shattered the dozens of fist images headed towards Petrova before losing all their power, dispersing into the wind as the three arrows flew back into Petrova's quiver. Just like the bow Petrova was weilding, these arrows were actually armaments as well. There was no way she was just going to just leave them laying about carelessly. However instead of being satisfied, Petrova's expression wen

Besides him was Hector, who sported a calm expression as his arms were crossed behind his waist. "What do you think of this rebellion?" Hector dodged the question, instead posing one of his own.
