Blood Evolution System
Chapter 74: Fluff!

"That seemed a little bit off," Salvador said after a moment.

"A little bit? I think he was mind-controlled by someone!" Lynette said as she was unable to make sense of the situation that has just occurred.

The Dean of the military academy was a stern old man who is always serious and doesn't take well to sarcasm. Why would he talk like a youngster? Why would he make fun of the others?

"We've been had." Eric coughed due to second-hand embarrassment.

"Eh?" Lynette's eyes widened as she suddenly came to a realization.

"You mean someone tricked us by impersonating the Dean?"

"Yes, I believe someone pulled a prank on us. Well, it's harmless, so there's no need to make a scene out of it. You guys should introduce yourself before the students step out of the building," Eric said, motioning the members of the student council to step up to the podium and introduce themselves to the newly enlisted students.

"I will introduce myself first," Lynette said to the others as she then gracefully walked to the podium.

After a few moments, she stood before the podium placed at the center of the stage.

"Wow, who is this beautiful female student?!"

The eyes of Nevis widened once he saw Lynette, who was wearing a gorgeous silver dress that exposed her shoulders with milky smooth skin and the lower portion of her legs.

"I give my greetings to the newly enlisted students! I am Lynette Avalon."

The newly enlisted students were smitten at the mere sight of Lynette's beautiful figure and enchanted by her calming voice.

"As you can see, there's a lot of students from different races here. Of course, I know some of you might not be used to socializing with members of the other races. However, I hope you can set aside your differences and get along well with your fellow students." Lynette said with a calming smile on her gorgeous face as redness suffuse her pointy ears.

They nodded their head vigorously, indicating that they will try to get along with the other students.

It wasn't wrong to say that Lynette was by far the most beautiful woman they have seen in their lives.

After all, she was an elf.

The elven race is considered to be the most beautiful demi-humans in the world of Lorena.

Moreover, Lynette was extraordinarily beautiful, even according to elven standards.

"I am in love with you, Lynette!" A student among the crowd shouted as she stepped back from the podium, and another member of the student council steps up to the podium.

'I'm glad he showed no interest in her,' Leila thought as she peeked at her boyfriend, who stood still with a stoic expression on his face.

For obvious reasons, Vincent didn't feel attracted to Lynette. He admits she is beautiful, but he is already in love with Leila. He only had eyes for her, and he wanted to make her his.

Vincent turned around to intensely look into her eyes. 'However, I first need to find a solution to her uncontrollable transformation.'

"What? Is there something on my face?" Leila said in a flustered tone while blinking her eyes.

"Yes, I can see a bundle of cuteness that I would like to kiss very much. Can I?" Vincent asked as he seductively licked his rosy lips.

As she looked into his crimson eyes, Leila couldn't help but blush.

"Why is he so handsome! Ugh, whenever he looks at me like that, my heart goes out of my control.' Leila screamed in her mind as she lowered her eyes, looking away from him.

Vincent teasingly smiled. "Shall I take this silence as a sign of consent?"

Immediately after, Leila shook her head like a startled bunny. "Not in public areas."

"Hmm, okay." Vincent agreed with her as he didn't want to force his love and affection on her.

He wanted to respect her decision as she precious to him. He wanted to cherish Leila as she might become his wife in the future.

Sometime later, once the members of the student council and a few instructors finished introducing themselves to the students, Eric said, "Guys, we will be showing the way around the campus. You can join us if you would like to view the different facilities of the academy."

"What a coincidence.

Peter and Nevis didn't know the way around the campus.

"We will join."

As they moved forward, a sweet voice came from behind them.

"Do you mind if I come with you?" Iris Twilight asked Peter.

"Well, why not?" Peter replied.

"Ugh, I will find a girlfriend," Nevis screamed in his mind as he looked at the lovely couple holding each other's hand.

Right after, Nevis, Peter, and Iris could be seen becoming a part of the crowd gathered by the student council's president.

"I see my brother!" Leila said, looking at Peter, who was walking with another girl.

"He is old enough to take care of himself. You should leave him be. Otherwise, you will spoil him," Vincent said as he held one of her hands.

"Umm, okay, I will do as you say," Leila said, traces of worry vivid on her face.

She felt worried for Peter's sake.

In Vincent's eyes, she was like a mother hen worrying a bit too much about Peter.

He wasn't wrong at all.

After the death of their parents, Leila has always looked after Peter as he was her only family.

To say the least, Leila was more like a mother to Peter than a sister.

After a moment, Leila exhaled deeply and said, "Big brother, what should we do now?"

"I want to spend time together with you, just the two of us," Vincent said. "You can decide the rest."

"Okay, let's have a look around this place," Leila said as she too wanted to tour the academy, but only with her boyfriend rather than a crowd. "However, we don't have a guide."

Leila scratched her chin like a cat using her tiny claws to scratch her fur.

Staring at her, Vincent felt that she looks cute even when she is acting confused.

"What should we do?" Leila asked as she looked at her boyfriend with hope.

"We can take an unorganized tour of the academy grounds. Although it is pretty big, I am sure we won't get lost." Vincent offered a solution.

Leila's eyes brightened as she nodded.

"Let's do that," she said.

"Hey, what a coincidence to see you here." Varth suddenly walked up to them. "Do you still remember me?"

"You are the guy that helped us fight Felix and sheltered us from the projectiles, right?" Leila said as she looked at Varth, who was wearing multiple layers of clothes, and his left eye was still covered by a black patch.

"Yeah," Varth said. "I didn't mean to but I happened to hear that you guys were planning to take an unorganized tour around the academy ground. I just wanted to say that the student ID cards can project a map of the entire academy. So, if you ever get lost, you can find your way back to the dorms by using it."

"The dorms close at 9 p.m. sharp. They won't allow you to enter after that!"

"Thanks for the heads up," Leila said.

Varth turned to leave, but Vincent stopped him.

"Before you go, how about we exchange contact details?" Vincent said as he flashed his card towards Varth.

Out of the few students he wanted to invite into his party, Varth was one of them.

"Umm, sure," Varth said. He has been looking for a way to befriend Vincent for a while, and now he finally obtained it.

After a moment, they scanned each other's contact codes and befriended each other online.

"I also want to do that with you," Leila said as she took out her ID card to swap contact detail with Varth.

"You can only do that with me," Vincent said in a stern tone with a somewhat stern look on his face.

He didn't know why, but he didn't want her to befriend another man.

Leila puffed her cheeks as she felt like he unfairly scolded her.

"I will leave you guys to enjoy your date!" Varth said in a low tone as he walked away from them, heading towards the dormitory as he wanted to rest.

Meanwhile, as he saw her acting like an annoyed kid, Vincent's lips thinned into a smile.

"Don't be angry." Vincent gently touched her face to look into her eyes.

As she looked at him, Leila blushed as his beautiful face helped her calm down.

"I am not angry at you anymore," Leila said after appreciating his beauty for a good whole minute.

"Wanna swap contact detail with me?" Vincent asked with a pleasant smile.

"You are my only boyfriend. If not you, then who?" Leila replied.

A few moments later, Leila smiled as she successfully experienced the foreign way of swapping contact details.

Looking at the smile on Leila's face, Vincent recalled one of the reasons why he fell for Leila.

'It's because even little things make her smile. However, she usually keeps up a facade of coldness. I guess it's because of her inability to control her racist trait.'

As he looked at her intensely, Vincent vowed, "I will see to it so that happiness never leaves your face."

"What? Did you something?" Leila asked as she couldn't quite hear what he said.

Vincent smiled, and he said, "My, beautiful, flower of the night, If you don't mind me showing you the way around the campus, then please take my hand."

Looking at Vincent, who was half-kneeling with his hands extended towards her, Leila giggled. "Big brother, that's honestly cliche."

However, she still grabbed his hand.

While enjoying the moment, they intertwined fingers.

Following her boyfriend, Leila looked around in curiosity.

Along the way, Vincent used the function of the student ID card that Varth has told him about. Immediately after, a holographic screen projecting the buildings and different locations of the military academy opened up in front of them.

The exact location of the buildings inside the academic ground could be seen on one side of the holographic screen floating in front of them. The uses of the facilities provided by the military academy were listed on the other side of the holographic screen.

It simply explained everything about the facilities of the military academy.

"First and foremost, let's visit this building," Vincent said as he pointed at the Alchemist section.

Leila nodded as they started to go there.

After a few moments, Leila said, "Big brother, I was honestly surprised to see everyone behaving friendly to the demi-humans."

Vincent patted her head and said, "Leila, all the races had set apart their differences to stand under one name, The Earth Federation to face their common enemies, the creatures from hell. The things that happened in the past are now only a part of history. Of course, there's no need to blame yourself for what your race did. Besides, it's not like they were entirely in the wrong."

Leila's eyes squinted in pleasure as he played her like he was playing with a cat, and she said, "Umm, I don't care about that anymore."

In the past, before the war started with the creatures of hell, once humans invaded the world of the bestial humanoids, they offered to sign two treaties with them.

A peace treaty and an agreement to trade between the two worlds.

However, more than half of the bestial humanoid decided to fight off the invaders rather than agree to their demands.

Naturally, they miserably lost.

However, the war brought losses to both sides.

Following that, the winners defamed the losers in the worse way possible.

This in turn bred hatred towards feline beasts who didn't take part in the war.

That's one of the reasons why Leila hated showing her form to others as she feared being hated by others for no reason.

A while later, they reached the alchemist section of the military academy.

"The Alchemist Section: A place that deals with everything related to the magic scrolls, potions, elixirs, pills, and so on. To sell alchemy items, one needs to pass the test set by the instructors in charge of this place."

Then, they headed towards the blacksmith section.

"The Blacksmiths Sections: A person can buy weapons, armor, and materials needed to craft both of them from here. A person can also sell items here as long as he proves that he is not selling counterfeit."

After glancing at the library from afar, they bought food from the stalls placed before the food court.

Right after having a ice cream, Vincent and Leila decided that they should end their tour of the military academy as Leila was feeling too tired and sleepy.

"Let's get out uniform from the student's clothing building before heading to the dorms," Leila said, and she then yawned.

"How about you go and rest in your room, while I will get our uniforms."

"It's not like I am too tired of walking and staying awake. Besides, I want to stay with you for a while longer." Leila said.

After a few moments, once they got their uniform from the staff members, they walked to the sections of the military academy where the student's dormitory buildings could be seen.

The female and male dorms were separated from each other, and so Vincent and Leila split up with each other, walking to their respective dormitory mentioned on their student ID card.
