Drip. Drip. Drip.

 Aiden stared as his fingers, dripping with blood. A look of horror in his expression.

 All around him were shriveled coprses. The atmosphere was gloomy, further accentuating the gory sight.

-[Mission Completed!]

-[You have recieved +10 Blood drachmas]

-[You have devoured 35 litres of blood]

 "W-What have I turned into?!" he burst into tears.

.

.

 Lancelot Academy..

It was a prestigious school to breed young magis, being the number one in Halowe State.

 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.

 Like any other Magi Academies, the admission was often free however, it came with an entrance test.

Failing the entrance test meant losing the chance to become a student.

 The entrance test was being hosted in a spacious field inside the Academy's premises. There were rows of spectator benches surrounding the field, making it look more like a football stadium.

  Gathered around the field was a crowd of teenagers, numbering up in hundreds. These were those who showed up for the Academy's admission.

 If they passed, that meant they would become students of Lancelot Academy.

 "Decorum please" a calm voice resounded in the ears of everyone present as a figure dropped from the skies.

 It was a smartly dressed middle aged man with glasses, standing on a floating brick.

 "That's Teacher Krillin"

 "You mean the Magi who has the Sound mojo?"

 "Ahh, no wonder his voice rumbled in my head"

 "Soo strong!"

 The crowd exploded into a wave of discussions.

 "Tsk. Sound mojo huh? nothing impressive" Rio who was amongst the crowd on the field, snickered.

 Mojos were the unique abilities of Magis.

According to Public knowledge, a Magi could only be entitled to a single mojo.

 "I will like to welcome you all to the Academy's 25th Entrance exams. For this entrance exam, I will be the super visor" Teacher Krillin said calmly, however his voice echoed clearly in the heads of everyone present.

 "This entrance exam has two stages. Mojo assessment and combat. Allow me to explain what the mojo assessment test entails"

 "By placing your palm on this orb.." he snapped his finger, causing an azure glowing orb, the size of a bear head to materialize.

 ".. It reveals your mojo, as well as the talent of that mojo. Though let me tell you something crucial. Talent doesn't mean potential. So even if you end up getting a mojo with a weak talent. Don't give up. Train hard and you will even surpass those with high talent"

 "Now begin. You can take turns touching the Mojo assesment orb" after saying this, Teacher Krillin floated to a corner.

 "Heh. Here I come" a guy wearing baseball cap grinned as he went over.

Touching the assesment orb,  a ray of light exploded, forming the below words.

 *Mojo: Metal manipulation*

 *Talent: Pawn tier*

 When the spectators saw this, they exploded into a fit of booings.

 "Tch. What an utter trash!"

 "Pawn tier talent? Seriously? I bet he won't make it into Lancelot Academy"

 "Tsk. Get off from the assesment orb trash!"

 The guy with the baseball cap smiled sadly as he distanced himself from the assessment orb.

 He didn't blame the crowd for their insults, afterall, a pawn tier talent was the lowest type of talent.

 "Hope this goes well" a girl with twin pony tails went over to the assessment orb.

.

.

 Minutes passed with several of the aspirants going over to touch the assessment orb, to get their mojo talents analysed.

 Along the line, three hundred people turned out to possess pawn tier talent.

Two Hundred turned out to have Rook tier talents. Hundred had Knight tier talents. Thirty had Bishop tier talents. Finally, it was Rio's turn.

 "This will be a piece of cake!" he grinned with confidence as he placed his palm on the assessment orb. A ray of light exploded, forming into a series of words.

 *Mojos: Ability Intuition & Time Manipulation*

 *Talent: King tier!*

 Silence. Everybody present, including even Teacher Krillin gawked at Rio, like they were staring at a monster.

 T-Two mojos? and a king tier talent?!

.

.

 Once Aiden got back to his apartment, he had a cool bath so that he could clear his head. But no matter how hard he tried, the image of him with bloodied fingers and mouth couldn't just leave his head.

 It was seriously driving him insane! Just what kind of monster had he turned to?

-[Host is now a Vampire]as if reading his thoughts, a series of words appeared on the system's panel screen.

 "Vampire? What's a Vampire?"

-[The world's dangerous predators. As a Vampire, host can grow stronger by devouring essence]

 "Essence?"

 -[Yes. The main chip that fuels the life force of all living things. By drinking blood. You absorb blood essence and grow stronger while at it]

"Grow stronger you say? but I don't feel a single damn thing has changed!" Aiden clenched his fist.

 Suddenly, new words appeared on the panel screen.

 "This system thingy works just like video games!" Aiden thought to himself.

 He tried leveling up the *strength stat*

-[This action costs 1 litres of blood. Do you want to proceed?]

After giving the system a mental go ahead, a new notification came in.

-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up!]

-[Continue level up? The next level up will cost 2 litres of blood!]

 'Yes' Aiden gave the go ahead.

-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]

-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 4 litres of blood]

 'Yes!'

-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]

-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 8 litres of blood]

-[Your strength stat has experienced a level up]

-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 15 litres]

-[Insufficient amount of AB Blood]

 "Hmm.." Aiden whistled, clenching his fist. He could feel a volatile energy stirring within his muscles.

 "Let's see if this system really works!" he licked his lips as he left his apartment.

 Fortunately, a tree happened to be a stone throw away.

 Arriving besides the tree, Aiden leaned back a bit, drawing his clenched fist back before sending it thrusting forward.

 BAAM!

    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

    "Yeah! Yeah! Pummel him!" "That's what I'm talking about!" "Loser! get up and fight!" Entering the battle rambo building, Aiden winced in discomfort at the loud noises the audiences were making. 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

    Aiden couldn't believe what he just heard. Xavier was the Country's protector?! "So, are you related to him in some way?" Charlotte asked. "Something like that. 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. An intense one at that. Picture your beta force as a bowl of soap and your mojo as a sponge""Then try visualizing that sponge soaking

    Aiden stared at his clothes which were now soaked with the blood of the shriveled up corpses lying around. Lick. He moved his tongue, licking up the blood stained on his upper lips. For strange reasons, the blood taster sweeter than even the sweetest gelato he had ever eaten. Staring at his blood soaked clothes, he groaned. Anytime his bloodlust grew, a bloodbath always followed after. He had to think of a way to deal with his huge apetite to drink blood or risk alerting the Sentries or the LEA.

    "Hey brat! what do you think you are doing here snooping around?" an unfriendly voice suddenly scowled, snapping Aiden out from his daze. 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. However according to what Marie told him, all Vampires who awoke from their Cold Slumber never experienced short term memory loss.. Aiden's case was bizarre and completely unheard of.

    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 sound of boot colliding with muddy soil made a disgusting squishing noise as a hooded figure walked across the sidewalk of a ghetto street. 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.

Tap. Tap. Tap. A red carpet was released from within the jet as a figure slowly but confidently stepped out. Sporting short curly silver colored hair, August was currently missing his fancy pair of glasses. Instead, he now had an eye patch covering the left side of his face while his previously supple skin was now a bronze tan. He was clad in black English suit, Oxford shoes and had his hair tied into a ponytail. He no longer looked like the typical teenage genius the public once knew him to be. It was like he had completed a difficult transition to become a man! Pwish! Pwish! Pwish! Quick fingered journalist instantly took quick shots when they saw August finally make an appearance.

    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. "Hm.. the leader of this so called rebellion is merely a brat.. a shamed Prince who is only alive because I showed mercy.. infact I don't even think of this conflict as a rebellion.. merely the squabbling of a brat.
