My Vampire System - Chapter 9

Chapter 9: Chapter 9 What system?

Chapter 9 What system?

After Quinn had finished unpacking, he was free to do what he wanted for the rest of the day . It was still noon so he had plenty of time to explore the academy on do what he wanted .

Quinn was currently sharing his room with two people and to his surprise, he knew both of them . One of them was Vorden while the other was Peter . There were three single beds in the room each spread out from one another but other than that the room was pretty empty .

Students were expected to spend most of their time studying or practicing their skills . there was no time for pleasure .

"What do you guys want to do then?" Vorden asked .

"I'm still unpacking, you two don't have to wait for me, do what you want," Peter replied .

Peter had opened up a little to the two of them, at first he was completely shy and hardly said a word but slowly Peter seemed to be coming out of his shell especially around Quinn . Peter most likely felt comfortable around Quinn knowing that he was a level 1 ability user like himself .

"I was thinking of heading to the library," Quinn replied, "that will probably be too boring for you . "

"Boring, I can make anything fun, besides I haven't read a book in…" Vorden paused for a while . "I can't even remember the last time I read a book . "

The three of them laughed and then Vorden and Quinn decided to head to the library together . Finally, they had arrived and the first floor was already busy with students . Quinn noticed that there were multiple round desks spread out where students were sitting and In the middle of the desk was a glowing orb .

"Ahh, you're probably wondering what that Orb thing is in the middle aren't you?" Vorden asked, "It looks like they don't have them at public schools . If you touch the orb, then it allows you to create a space, in that space, only those people who have been invited can be heard . This way people are able to talk and chat as much as they want while not disturbing others . "

"Technology sure has come a long way . "

Quinn and Vorden then chose a table that had two other people sitting on the other side . Just as Vorden had said, Quinn could see the two talking but couldn't hear a word of what they were saying . The orb seemed to only have a range of the table though . Once you left the table others were able to hear you as normal .

Quinn went looking around the library and picked out as many books as he could about abilities . Most of them describing what different types of abilities the world had . Vorden wasn't too bothered and decided to just select a random fiction book to read .

The two sat at their tables while Quinn started to flick away . After reading several books Quinn had discovered nothing new . He already knew about most of the abilities written in the book but not one of them mentioned an ability like Quinn's .

Vorden had been keeping a close eye on Quinn and noticed the type of books he had been picking out .

"What's with all the books, are you looking for something in particular?"

Quinn thought about it for a while before giving Vorden an answer . Vorden wasn't the brightest person when it came to academics but he was quite knowledgeable about abilities it seemed . He would have to be because of the type of ability he had .

"I was trying to decide what ability to get since I turned down the school's offer . "

"Oh right, I forgot about that, I thought you might have been one of those Pure members who hate abilities . Turns out you just didn't want to be a dog to the military . " Vorden replied, "Well is there anything specific you're looking for?"

"Not really, I have no clue . There was one that said something interesting though, have you ever heard of an ability that is weaker in sunlight . "

Vorden suddenly started to laugh out loud .

"What are you crazy, I've never heard of something like that . Abilities are something our bodies learn . Sure some people have limits and can't learn stronger spells or can do less than others but for one to get weaker because of the sun . Sounds like you're a Vampire or something . "

Quinn felt a little embarrassed by Vorden's reaction . Of course, Quinn knew this would be the normal reaction when asking something like this but it was true . As long as Quinn was in direct sunlight all of his stats would weaken by half .

Quinn continued to look around the library to see if there was anything else he could find . He had finally gone through every single one of the ability books he could find but there was nothing . Quinn then looked up at the floor above where there were some second-year students .

"Maybe there's something up there but I can't imagine what the academy would do to me for breaking the rules . " Quinn thought .

As Quinn continued to walk around the library, he had eventually ventured into the fiction section and his eyes were drawn to something .

A specific title of a book named "The Truth about Vampires . "

Quinn took out the book and gave it a quick look . Vampires were things of fairy tales, myths even . Even when people started to come out with powers, there was not one person who came out claiming to be a vampire .

Quinn couldn't help himself but start to read the book . It was a long shot but maybe he would find something he could relate to .

After reading and skimming through the book, Quinn found most of it was useless . A lot of the things that Vampires did, didn't relate to him at all . Vampires were required to eat human blood . Some could transform themselves into bats and cast illusions . While others were incredibly skilled with the sword and hypnosis but Quinn had none of these things .

The only thing he could relate to in the book was being weaker in the sun . Eventually, Quinn decided to close the book and call it a day . It didn't seem like he was going to find anything from the first floor of the library .

As soon as Quinn closed the book though . A familiar sound was heard .
