Why on earth will I be even doing this? Asking myself such questions was useless after all.
I couldn't endure the pain anymore, it was an excruciating pain as I had to endure, doing most of the task at the same time. A knife in my belly, meditation and a practice with my skill, at the same time I was using my spatial awareness to detect every single object in the house, even little life force from small creatures around the house.
I had reached my limits, my spatial awareness was only several meters away from my spot. it was later I got to understand that my body was absorbing the knife, luckily we had lots of kitchen knife so if one misses, it won't be noticable.
*NOTIFICATION:
RISK: ENDURANCE TEST:[✓]
C.C notified me as I fully absorbed the kitchen knife and my wounds healed up. I immediately thought about how Marcus and his gang will be feeling, The system gigged as it replied to my thoughts.
*Don't bother, u used one of ur latent skills which is mind manipulation. This helps brainwash ur victim and people whom u want to brainwash.*
I was surprised but at the same time I was relieved because I won't stand it if I am exposed especially in my current status. "Is that the reason why no one asked me why they were pale and unconscious? Even after seeing the walls of the rest room and my clothes stained with blood"
*RESPONSE: Yes. With your mind manipulation, u twisted the whole issue in their mind. U brainwashed them.
Just then, I felt something within me like I had increased in energy. I felt refreshing even after having a knife in my stomach.
My relaxation was caught short when I heard the sound of the door unlocked as my mum came in. "Honey! I am home!!" I could hear my mum's footsteps approaching in my direction. My heart rate increased as i became nervous, I didn't want to let her know who I have now become. I quickly asked C.C for help but it words were frustrating.
* It is simple Allen, just release all tension ur body is feeling right now and think nothing but calmness and good behavior*
"How on earth will this work, this isn't how I transformed to a vampire" I murmured in frustration as I didn't want my mum to hear me talking to someone
C.C didn't respond so I figured out that was the only chance. I tried to ease all tension in my body and tried to think of something positive. Just then, my mum's footsteps became louder as my fangs and claws began to retract, even my wild long white hair began to return back to my normal dark brown curly hair which I take so much pride in. But the white hair seemed really cool with my snow like pupil.
* I am happy I have a gorgeous vampire master*
"Hey son..." My mum said as she opened the door. By then, u was already on my feet as I stood in front of the door
"Hey mum. Welcome home, how was work?"
My mum stared at me in confusion. She tilted her head to see if I was hiding something. ".... I am ok, how was school today?"
"As stressful as always" I replied as I held her handbag. "I didn't go to work today, it's my day off"
"Ohhh, that's nice. But wait..." She seemed confused and looked at me with looks of suspicion. "... How did u know I was going to ask that question?"
That question sent a chill down my spine, to be honest, my instincts just told me. I began to search my head for words to say. She seemed really interested in how I managed to know what she had in mind
"... Yh mum! I just knew u would ask that because I came back earlier than usual and u would seem interested in why I came back home before u"
She looked at me and smile, " that's ok I am happy u came back home early, compared to yesterday". I can't believe my mum but into that silly excuse. Today is my luck.
"Meanwhile have u eaten anything since u came back? She asked as she prepared to freshen up and go to the kitchen." Not really mum! I am really starving".
It didn't take long before my body was nourished with good food but that hunger for what was more than food was at it max. I needed it soon enough that means I will possibly go out for night walks.
I kept on wandering how I could get the blood of fifteen humans or even worst in the nearest future. I was concerned but this system has made me to understand that I am no longer a human. It is surprising that I became a vampire just after a day of being bitten but this isn't enough to make me strong. I have to work for it on my own.
With my dark hoodie and self comfortable jeans and a pair of Snickers, I jumped out of my window without even having a second thought, something I have never done before. Whereas, I was scared of heights but now all my phobias seem to be gone.
I landed slowly on the ground like as if I was some feather dropped from and outstanding height. My abilities weren't the type that could only be used when I shift to a vampire, it also works while I am human.
The streets were empty making it easy for me to hear my own footsteps even when I had my headset on, this was caused by my long distance hearing. At some point, I became afraid of what I could become in my next power realm but something kept on motivating me and I kept on going. My thirst for blood began to grow stronger as I went deeper into the streets.
I began to lose hope as I didn't encounter any human to devour but my instincts were promising. It kept on assuring me of something and I kept on going, walking on streets that seemed dead.
Just then, A luring scent crossed my nose as I worked, this scent was more enticing than the scent of normal food when someone is hungry. I didn't think twice as I sprinted towards this scent. Just then I found myself in the woods, nothing came to my mind only to find what was drawing me closer.
To my surprise it was a donkey drinking water close to a stream. "Wait how could there be a stream like this in an urbanized area like this settlement?" I pondered as I watched closely.
