"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 the Sentry Association, they were the ones who held the world's military might. Many nobles and royals were even part of the Sentry Association. "What would I gain by lying to you?" Mr. Xavier chuckled, obviously taking delight at Aiden's exaggerated reaction. "The Nightshade Academy is the Country's number one Academy. I heard that only nobles and royals can only be permitted to enter" Aiden voiced his suspicion. "Kekeke. You are correct. That is because we nobles and royals tend to have better talents and more reserves to store up mana, more potent beta force and powerful mojos" "But I believe you show promise. Which is why I am extending this opportunity. To clear doubts, I will also be taking you in as my foster child" Mr. Xavier persuaded. Aiden took a deep breath. Although his guts kept prompting him that there was something fishy surrounding the sudden show of goodwill, his desire eventually won over. That was the Country's number one Academy!There was bound to be many resources. He just couldn't miss out on such an allure. "I'll take your silence as a yes, kiddo" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Since you can get me into Nightshade Royal Academy, you must be a royal. Why are you helping me then? I'm just a mere bumpkin" "Tch. You'll find out in the future. As for now, just think of it as me appreciating your talent" Mr. Xavier patted Aiden's head, before sauntering out of the battle rambo building. "So, where are we going now?" Aiden chased after him. "The Country's capital. Where else?" Mr. Xavier shrugged as he fetched out a flashy car key, pressing a button on it. Oink! Oink! A flashy red color bugatti parked at a corner flashed it's headlight. "Hop in. We are leaving for the air port" "Hey! I need to at least park my stuffs!" Aiden snorted. "I can just buy you new ones once we reach the capital. Quit whining like a lady" Mr. Xavier rolled his eyes as he got into the car. Helpless, Aiden could only follow suite."What about your bodyguards? are you just going to abandon them?" Aiden asked, few minutes after Mr. Xavier hit the road. "I didn't abandon them. Dammit kid, stop asking me useless questions" Mr. Xavier slapped the wheels with frustration. "Tch" bored, Aiden opened the system and saw an unread notification.-[Congratulations! You have completed Mission; The Daring Predator]-[You have received 20 blood drachmas]-[You have received a ? Box]-[Do you wish to open the ? Box?] Staring at the system screen for a bit, before given the go ahead.-[? Box opened! Item found: Two pair of Klypt Gaunlets] An image depicting the Klypt guanlets appeared on the System screen. The Klypt Gaunlets were a dark shade of blood red. Gauging their length, Aiden estimated that they could reach his elbow. Although the material metal the gaunlets were forged out from was sleek, it was ridden with intricate patterns.-[ITEM INFO]-Name: Klypt Gauntlets -Item type: Armament-Level: 1/10-Uses: The Gauntlet can increase Host speed of Absorption by 10%.. "I recall that my mojo is essence absorption. Although I don't know how it works, it looks like it was tailor made for my mojo" Aiden thought.-[You have a pending Skill. Do you wish to view skill?" a new notification popped up. "Geez. I almost forgot" Aiden gave the go ahead.-[SKILL NAME]-Name: Essence Swipe-Level: 1-Uses: By swiping your claws, if you touch an organism, you absorb one tenth of their health. If you swipe and the strike connects, you absorb another one tenth.-Range: 2 Metres.. "Interesting"... "This is your place?" Aiden's mouth was wide agape as he stared at the huge mansion before him. After a six hours journey by flight, they finally arrived at the Country's Capital.Along the way, Aiden had previously marveled at the luxury buildings he saw in the Capital.
But compared to this mansion, those buildings were like igloos."Deal with it. Because, this is where you'll be staying from now on" Mr. Xavier laughed as he came down from the black Bentley, making his way towards the mansion. "Good evening Master Xavier" an old butler who stood at the entrance boxed towards Mr. Xavier. "Good evening young master Aiden" the butler bowed towards Aiden. "The master has told me about you" the butler replied. "Eh?" Aiden glanced at Mr. Xavier suspiciously. "During you both return to the capital of course" the butler added. "I don't reca.." "Geez kid. Relax!" Mr. Xavier interjected. "Nicholas. Please show him around the mansion. I am going to rest in my room" "That of course" Butler Nicholas smiled warmly before beckoning at Aiden. "Accompany me young master. Let me tour you around your new home... The next day, the sound of a loud alarm clock blarring jolted Aiden out from his sleep.[AUTHOR NOTE: RIGHT NOW, MANY WILL BE ASKING.. DON'T VAMPIRES STAY AWAKE ALL NIGHT. LOL. READ ON..] "Tch. Just now, I thought a nuke was exploding besides me" Aiden groaned as he went into the bathroom to freshen up. Fifteen minutes later, he was already descending the stairs, clad in a T-shirt and joggers. "Hm? Strange. These clothes and those in the wardrobe are exactly my size. I wonder when Xavier bought them" Aiden mumbled to himself, along the way. Along the way, he saw an unfamiliar lady, clad in a maid attire setting the table for breakfast. She was a perfect hourglass, with huge mounds that were threatening to break apart her maid uniform and a big ass. Her maid skirt only reached her upper laps, exposing her succulent milky white skin. "Strange. Xavier's skin is milky white, so was that butler and now this maid" Aiden discovered an interesting fact. "Oh you are awake young master!" the maid turned towards Aiden with a smile. Meeting those glistening dark eyes, red lips and toothy smile, Aiden could swear that his heart experienced a giant leap, as a blush crept on his milky white cheeks."H-Hi" he stuttered. "The master isn't around. Your chaffeur is waiting at the garage. You need to hurry up and eat so you won't be late on your first day at the royal Academy" the maid said, with her sweet addictive smile. "O-Okay" Aiden gulped deeply, his eyes never leaving the two mountain peaks before him. "Uhm.. Young master, you are staring at me like yo.. you want to eat me.. your food is on the dining table" the maid said bashfully, a red blush covering her cheeks. Pui! Blood dripped from Aiden's nostril. "Kya! Young master are you alright?!" the maid scampered to his side. Smelling her bodily scent up close, Aiden's eyes rolled to the top of his head as he fainted."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. Sitting down on the ground, he began going through his latest loots. -[You have Completed Mission; Defeat All Your Enemies] -[You have been rewarded with +5 Blood Drachmas] . . -[BLOOD DRACHMA] -35 .. -[MOJO(s)] -Essence Absorption (original) -[SKILLS] -Blood Essenbe Absorption -Rock Gauntlet (lv2) (+) -Pervert (buff) (lv1) (+) -Sand Bullets (lv3) (+) -Optical Laser (lv3) (+) -Double Damage (buff) .. -[BLOOD TANK] 1.

"Talent often refers to the potential of a Magi's mojo. Starting from the bottom are.. Pawn tier talent, Rook tier talent, knight tier talent, Bishop tier talent, Queen tier talent, King tier talent and Demonic talent" "Just like it's name, a Magi possesing a mojo with pawn tier talent has a limit of only mastering two hexes in their life time. Not only that, their rate of comprehension is pitifully low, as such it is very rare to see a Magi of such a calibre surpass the Omega King rank. It's like waiting for it to snow during june" Charlotte giggled. "As for Magis with mojo having rook tier talent, the maximum amount of hexes they can master in their lifetime is three. Their rate of comprehension is slightly above those with pawn tier talents and their cultivation limit is the Gamma Lord rank" "Compared to the first two categories, those with Knight tier talents can master the maximum of six hexes. Their rate of comprehension is average and their cultivation limit is the Delta Warr
"Demonic tier talent?" all of Class D stared at Aiden strangely. "Your mojo has demonic tier talent?" Nyx repeated with a bored expression. "Yeah" Aiden shrugged. "Then I look forward to your performance". . . "Does your mojo really have demonic tier talent?" Charlotte hurriedly asked Aiden as soon as he arrived besides her. "I think so. Although I'm not really certain" Aiden replied. "Now that you all have introduced yourselves and what kind of mojos you posses, it is time for me to move over to the next segment, connecting to your mojo" Nyx said, waving his hands, causing a stack of booklets to materialize from thin air. "These are Hex Tomes" He introduced. "Hex Tomes?" the Students mumbled, it was obvious that the word sounded foreign. "It is always said that the mojo of every Magi is distinct, yet there are many cases of Magis possesing mojos like fire manipulation, ice manipulation and the likes. Doesn't that contradict the popular saying?"The students of Cla
"Are you alright?" Mr. Xavier rushed over to Aiden, hoisting him out from the human sized crater formed on the wall. "Tch. Did you really have to do that?" Aiden cussed, his body ridden with cut marks. Crimson red blood kept oozing out from them. "He isn't healing?" Mr. Xavier mumbled while frowning. "Tsk. You said it was just a spar, yet you almost killed me! was that your mojo?" "No. That airwave was caused by my ordinary brute force" Mr. Xavier said, dusting the debris off Aiden's body. "Instead, we should talk about that laser that you shot out of your eyes. When you punched me, I could faintly sense the strength of a ultra-star Omega Warrior. But the laser you fired at me contained the might of a 1-star Omega Warrior. But that isn't theorectically possible" "Normally, the Beta force of a Magi as well as their Mojo Comprehension must be on the exact same level, to maintain an equilibrum" Mr. Xavier stroked his chin as he scanned Aiden with his sharp gaze.He looked like a Me
"This.." the newly arrived Kingsguard was about to put on airs when he noticed the familiar head on Aiden's palm, as well as the headless corpse besides him.He and his colleague had been both tasked to confront Prince Eragon during his march and apprehend him. A few moments before, they were both racing each other and now, his colleague was nothing but an headless corpse?! Shing!While the Kingsguard was still reeling from the shock, an ear piercing sword cry rang out as a sharp saber light stabbed towards him.Oge made her move.Bang!The runic symbols swirling besides the Kingsguard swiftly merged together to form a shield, blocking the sudden attack. The force of the collision caused cracks to appear on its surface.Whoosh!Oge disappeared from where she was standing, appearing mid air the next second as her saber stabbed towards the eyes of the Kingsguard. She was both merciless and direct.. not giving the opponent the opportunity to counterattack.Clang!The runic shield trans
It was unknown who let the cat out of the bag, but two explosive news rocked the whole Hidden Realm.. The first was that, General Jazz was still in a secluded retreat and the second was actually more explosive than it's predecessor.. The Crown Prince was nearly assassinated within the castle walls!!! No matter how General Jazz loyalist tried suppressing this news, they couldn't stop the several tongues wagging within the shadows. For a long time, the mere mention of General Jazz was like a butcher blade hanging over many of their throats. He was a tyrannical figure who wasn't merciful when it came to punishing those not on his side. Unfortunately no matter how dissatisfied they were, nobody dared revolt. However with the release of these two explosive news, the whole Hidden Realm experienced a transformation. "You shouldn't be parading the streets. By the decree of General Jazz you are to stay within the confines of your homes" a Winged Panda Man race member who was clad in worn
"Hmpfh!" slamming both of his palms together, a burst of blue colored flames erupted from the forehead of the Delegate that took the form of a Phoenix with a Qillin horn that shot towards the descending Lord Commander.Bang!The silver sword of the Lord Commander sliced the flame phoenix into two, while a curved sword light streaked towards the Delegate who held up both palms in front of him, creating a flame prison that protected him from the sword light.The collision merely made the flame prison quake. However it was a far cry from collapsing."A flame seed huh" the Lord Commander swiftly arrived in front of the Crown Prince as he gave the Delegate a sharp look.Although he tried hiding it, his brows creased in worry."Hmpfh. You lot think that we Delegates are soft persimmons. You think we are just skins and bones with only our brains having value" the Delegate spat hatefully as he controlled the flame prison with his hands, causing it to change shape into that of a gigantic sword
Bang!!A loud explosive noise resounded as the doors to a chamber flew past its hinges, blowing up into smithereens before it's many pieces crashed against the floor of the expensively looking tiled chamber."What messages do you have about my father? why didn't he just speak to me directly once he came out from seclusion?" the Crown Prince retreated his outstretched leg as she bouyantly walked into the chambers..Apart from the shiny decor of the chambers that could make Marie go crazy with greed, there was only a single soul present..Well, before the Crown Prince made his 'loud appearance ' that is. Unlike other Winged Panda Men, this was was far more chubbier and shorter. Not to mention, he was clad in yellow eastern styled scholarly robes and was lacking a tail. During the time when the Winged Panda Man race was still glorious and the world of Dystopia was still thriving, there was two distinct types of Winged Panda Men. The Warriors and the Delegates/Scholars.Just like th
When Aiden returned to the Strategy Hall with Nimara, whether it was Prince Eragon or his supporters, they were all pleasantly surprised. When Nimara personally pledged to support Prince Eragon, the banished Prince breathed a sigh in relief. It could be seen that he placed a majority of his confidence in the success of the Ancestral Ceremony. After much discussion, a decision was made. Aiden, Rin and Oge alongside one of the retired Kingsguards were going to accompany Prince Eragon to the Ancestral Tombs This was a counter measure Incase any of General Jazz loyalist tried to interfere. Also according to Nimara, the Ancestral Ceremony wasn't simple.. Prince Eragon could die if he didn't tread carefully. As for the rest, they were going to silently gather their forces. Once Prince Eragon returned from the Tombs, the rebellion was going to begin in full swing. "Are you sure you don't want me tagging along? I won't target her if that's what you are afraid of" Marie whispered to Aid
"How did it go?" Aiden had just stepped outside when he saw Marie giving him a curious look. "Were you waiting for me all this while?" he raised a brow while smirking in amusement. Before Marie could reply, she noticed somebody else coming out. It was the Maester! "She's agreed to help us" Aiden informed Marie who gave him a suspicious look. "Did you.." As if reading her mind, Aiden shook his head. "I didn't bite her. What do you think I am? a dog?" Rubbing his temples, he continued. "Let's just say, we both have a mutual reason for a partnership" Giving the Maester a look, he began making his way towards the strategy hall, intentionally hastening his walking pace to avoid getting any more questions from Marie. "What did she mean by the bite?" the Maester whispered to Aiden as they walked along the winding hallway. "Like I explained to you earlier, I am a Vampire and there are some of us capable of turning other people into one of us through biting them. I happened to be
"What the Hell?!" although Aiden had seen a lot of gore after obtaining the system, he couldn't hold back the surprised yelp. Instinctively blocking his face with both hands, the flying head was about to slam into him when something bizzare happened. The blood dripping from the Maester's decapitated neck suddenly seemed to have adopted an elastic property, extending towards the flying head before drawing it back. Right before Aiden and Marie's stunned faces, the head of the Maester got easily retached, leaving not the slightest mark or scar behind. It was like nothing had happened. "What are you?" "What the hell?!" The two Vampires screamed at the same time, causing them to give each other a look. "You first" Aiden shook his head weakly. "Did you just witness what happened just now?" "Oh yeah.. oh wait! yep you just sliced off her head. What the hell were you thinking just now?" Aiden rubbed his temples with exasperation. "You were told to interrogate the prisoner, not k
Aiden had barely recovered from the shocking statement when a snort suddenly rang out. "He's the one who killed three Kingsguards? looks like the Kingsguards have slacked off during General Jazz absence" Although the members of the Blood Dragon Legion who were present didn't understand what these words meant considering it was spoken in the native tongue of the Winged Panda Men, Aiden had the system which could automatically translate the language of the Winged Panda Man race. As for the speaker, it was one of three Elders present. Pretending like he was completely oblivious to the other party's remarks, Aiden gave Prince Eragon a look. "How is it going outside? Now that their Queen has been captured surely there are Soldiers patrolling every inch and corner right" "Actually.." Prince Eragon shrugged helplessly. "It is the opposite. It is currently morning and the news of the Maester's kidnap has not yet been in circulation.. " "That's good right?" Aiden rose his left brow.
When Aiden woke up, the first thing he felt was.. The itch.. followed by the burn.. And then the pain! —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[57/100] Sure enough, this system notification was the first thing he saw. Groaning dryly, Aiden noticed he was laying on a bed in an unfamiliar room. He tried rising up, only to discover that apart from the looming hunger pang, every fibre in his body hurt like hell! It was like a huge truck had just run right through a cricket.. and he was that cricket. "What the hell happened!" "Argh!" a searing headache hit Aiden when he tried going down the memory lane. "Am.. Am I sick?" Aiden was wrought with confusion when he noticed his vision slowly grow fuzzy. —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[87/100] Aiden was taken aback by the sudden sharp increase. He swiftly consumed a hundred blood drachmas, causing his stock to reduce all the way to three hundred. However even after he did this, it took about twenty minutes for his fuzzy vision to go back to normal, sam
