Chapter 228 - Tonight.
Ryan stood hidden behind a wall. On the other side was Brandon. Brandon hung his call with Ambassador Bostick. Ryan did not know this Bostick was but one thing was sure... This person was not Devon Bostick.
'Ambassador? In the sense, the one who represents their country in a foreign country..? Do vampires too have to represent their clan in another clan..?'
"No." He heard Professor's voice in his head, "This ambassador does not mean what you are thinking. Vampire's ambassador is different."
"Yeah? How is it different?" Ryan asked.
"You should focus on the ascendant vampire in front of you first. They are dangerous too,"
"Is not every vampire dangerous?" Ryan taunted as he turned around and ran downstairs.
Brandon heard the footsteps, 'Shit... Did someone hear me? But.. who would come up here?' Brandon did not care to follow the person because he could not hear the person's footsteps anymore.
'Fine. I do not need to care about it. If someone lets out the vampire secret, they will be killed by the Guardians anyway.' Brandon dug his hands in his pocket and gave a little shrug.
"Now will you care to tell me what an Ambassador and an ascendant vampire is?"
"No. I mean, later. First: Your safety."
"Argh! Man, seriously?!" Ryan stopped running and grunted at Professor.
"Keep walking, I said. Do not stop. Find a place which is safe for us to talk, or just think in your head."
"Thinking? No, thanks. I will find a place,"
"So we were talking about your safety,"
"Yeah.. I wonder what will happen tonight, you know regarding the vampire business."
"Are you listening? I am not in for any jokes. Please pay attention, this is important." suddenly a table appeared in front of Ryan's eyes.
It was a well-decorated, bright-looking table of contents. Ryan was confused at first but when he heard its contents, he got what the table was.
"As you can see, there are a lot of Royal families in the world. Not just that," the table disappeared and another one appeared, "There are a lot of different races, their subclasses, and their families. It is totally messed, to be honest."
"And?"
"And you, you have to be really careful of each other,"
"In what way?"
"Sigh. Royal families. What are they?" Professor asked.
"Uh.. families who are the strongest from particular regions."
"And?"
"And..."
"Their kids. Their children are enrolled in the Academy and are usually the strongest students."
"Oh, is it? I did not know it."
"Really? I mean, just take a look at your Academy's top ten members,"
"Rigid Russell. Devon Bostick, Robert Capron," Ryan took the names of top three students.
"....Only one," Professor replied with a surprise.
"Yep. Rigid is from a werewolf pack, Devon is from a vampire family, Robert is the only one who is from a Royal family." Ryan told Professor.
"I know that much, Ryan... I have the records of everyone with me,"
"Records?"
"Yes. I have created a digital book within the System that tells me about literally anyone in the world. Their name, their race, their physical features are listed. Of course, if you want to you can also take a look."
"That is amazing... How come I never knew about it..?"
"Huh? You knew about it from the start, Ryan."
"Eh? no, I did not-"
"How do you think your skill Vision comes up with the information of anyone you look into the eyes of?"
"....." Ryan was impressed, "No way.." a grin appeared on his face, "That is awesome!"
"I know." Professor nodded, "Uh, okay. The Royal families, what I want to tell you is... Whatever you do, never ever mess with the Royal families."
"Mess in the sense?"
"Do not get into a fight with them, keep your relationships with them nice, no arguments, nothing. Believe me, you would not like getting into trouble with a Royal family's kid... Wait... Have you already-?"
"No! No, I have not... I think,"
"My god. Just what are you?" Professor face-palmed. The last words Ryan added made Professor even more anxious, "You have already done the things you were not supposed to. How the hell am I supposed to protect you now?!" Professor groaned.
"Eh, are not you strong? Then come here and protect me." Professor lifted his head and kept staring at Ryan.
Even with the blurred screen, Ryan could feel Professor's piercing stare. 'Crap. Did I just make a mistake by saying that?'
"Do not ever say that again, Ryan." Professor replied with a super? serious tone, "I can not and would not come near you to help you. Although I am strong, all I can do is sit here and help you with your journey."
Ryan had some questions in his mind but decided to leave them and do not ask Professor about anything in detail.
"Got it. I am sorry."
"Hm," Professor took a pause, "Let us move forward. The Underworld. It is self-explanatory. Even you would not want to mess with them cause you know their real power."
"Right.."
"Next, mythological beings. Again, I do not want you to spoil your relation with any of them. Believe me or not, these creatures are stronger than anyone. Even stronger than the Underworld if it involves brutal strength, and pure Traits only, without the use of technology or science.."
"I.. know that very well, I am aware how strong they are."
"Thank god you do. If you have messed with any race, I want you to tell me about it."
"Okay.. I would not really say I messed up with them but yeah, the relations are bitter."
"Explain."
"Our Head General, Brandon Fraser is from the Bostick vampire family. He is an ascendant as you just told me. The vampire we just met, who was on a call with Bostick's Ambassador."
"What about him?"
"I... stole his items." Ryan waited for Professor to reply but Professor did not say anything, "His vampire diary, blood flask, sunglasses. I took them, he sensed it and attacked me. But thanks to me System, I hid his items in my invisible inventory and was able to get away with it."
"Anything else? Is that it?"
"Yes.." Ryan was rather surprised at Professor's casual tone.
"Then that is not a problem. Your Inventory is already over level 10. He would not be able to sense his items anymore, you are safe."
"Ah~ thank god." Ryan sighed.
"Well, I am done with the first step of your training. Before we move forward, do you have any questions?"
"Yes. What is a vampire ambassador.. ugh, I want you to tell me everything about the Vampire business,"
"Why?"
"Tonight," Ryan replied quickly, he knew Professor would ask that question, "Something terrible is going to happen today with the vampire business. And I am going to witness it. So I want to know everything about the vamps before I enter their world."
"I suggest you do not enter their world. That is what I told you in the first step. Why do you want to witness an Ambassador's conversation? I seriously would not allow it."
"Hah. Why? Why do you ask? Well.. because it involves my brother Devon Bostick. They are planning something against him and I can not let them harm my friend Devon knowing he is in danger."
Professor was silent. 'Good answer, my son Ryan.' He thought.
