My Fate System

Chapter 34: Bloodsucker



A shadow leaped out of the forest and started attacking the first person next to him. The shadow bounced on the poor student and they rolled on the ground.

The monster revealed itself to be a giant rabbit with sharp teeth protruding from its mouth. Its two front legs were arched into claws that held the poor student in place by piercing his shoulders.

“A Bloodsucker!”

The red eyes of the monster made it clear that it was no ordinary one, but a bloodsucking monster that got stronger by drinking the blood of other creatures. They were stronger as their evolution was a lot faster than normal.

“Help!” The student cried out, fear reeking from his voice. Veron diverted his wind sword and slashed toward the Bloodsucker. He let go of the wind blade and it bolted toward the rabbit who let go of the student and evaded in time.

“Treat him!” Veron shouted as he waved his hand, allowing the wind elementals to retrieve his sword for him. He looked with a frown toward the bloodsucker giant rabbit before turning to Nikolai. “It’s a vile thing to think of the lives of others so lowly.”

“If that what it takes to win.” Nikolai shrugged, even though he had no intention of letting the monster take the life of any student. “I knew you wouldn’t standby idly.”

As he finished his words, Nikolai heard shouts coming from a distance. He turned to see that his Class arriving at the scene. They picked the worst possible time for arrival, as the monster targeted them as well now.

“You dragged down your class into this.”

“To be honest, I didn’t think they would be so quick.” Nikolai shook his head. “Nonetheless, my objective is clear here.”

“Are you going to run away now?” Veron didn’t look at him but kept eyeing the bloodsucker as the monster stared back at him. The monster’s droll pooled on the ground in front of it as its eyes darted from a place to the other.

“Not a chance.” Nikolai wasn’t a vile person, only a ruthless one. He had no qualms about endangering others if it was for his benefit. However, this was a different topic. “This monster looks like a proper prey.”

“Oh?” Veron smiled for the first time today. “We both have two monoliths, so the Water Class’s monolith is the last. How about we make this a fair battle?”

“I doubt it would be fair with your strength, but I’m tired of plotting too.” Nikolai aimed his gun at the monster who was crouching, ready to bounce again.

His bullet left the gun before the monster could strike again, landing exactly in the monster’s eyes. It screamed in agony as the mana-infused bullet did some damage to his vision.

Veron said no more and rushed to the monster, slashing with his sword. The monster met Veron with its claws and deflected the attack only for more bullets to rain down on him.

The moment that it tried to run away from the bullets, it was struck by Veron back on track. Their teamwork was flawless as each bullet passed by Veron without interfering with his attacks.

The scene of enemies allying themselves left everyone dumbstruck, but they soon realized why the two had joined forces. If left alone, this monster would rip apart both classes apart.

An arrow flew over from a distance and lodged itself into the rabbit’s hindleg, severely restricting its movements. Nikolai spotted Sira standing on top of a tree a fair distance away, aiding them as well.

“Wind!”

Veron shouted and Kara’s whirlwind arrived to aid them. The bullets danced in the wind as if God himself was guiding them to the monster’s weak points.

Veron stomped powerfully on the ground and pierced with his sword’s tip enveloped in green mana. The monster seemed to realize the danger it was in, making it gather blood-colored mana in its mouth.

The corrosive blood exploded to meet the blade, but a rain of mana bullets arrived to disturb it. The blood energy exploded in the monster’s mouth, taking away a large chunk of its face.

Veron’s sword arrived and pierced the monster’s chest and a whirlwind exploded from within, shredding apart the monster’s internals.

The monster fell to the ground, dead. Two crystals rose from it, each colored with a dripping blood color. These crystals were special vitality crystals that were dropped by Bloodsuckers only after accumulating tons of vitality from other creatures.

“Unique Vitality Crystals!” A student shouted and the rest of the students’ eyes were dyed with greed. These crystals would at least give you five points in Vitality.

Veron glanced at him and sprinted forward. As Nikolai was a distance away, someone else rushed in to snatch his crystal. Julian was like a wild beast as he sprinted toward the crystal.

A normal crystal wouldn’t cause such a reaction, but a unique one was different. Veron and Julian arrived at the same time and each snatched a crystal.

Without hesitation, each of them broke their crystals. Well, for Julian, it was more of a try than a success. A bullet landed on his hand and broke the crystal at the moment he was about to break it. The crystal turned into nothingness in front of Julian’s eyes.

[6 Vitality Stats Points have been absorbed.]

[A unique energy enters your blood, lying dormant. Activation is necessary for this energy to be harnessed.]

“NIKOLAI YARAN!” Julian’s roar was that of an angry god, ready to deliver celestial justice. It was the first time that Nikolai heard Julian say his full name in both of his lives.

‘Is this how it feels when your mother calls you by your full name?’ Nikolai wondered but he couldn’t know since he was an orphan.

Julian was madly running toward him, fumes of fury spewed out of his mouth. However, Nikolai wasn’t scared. The more that he interacted with Julian, the more he understood how insecurity-driven his actions were.

The wind was still as strong as before. With two bullets, Nikolai struck Julian’s knees and made him roll on the ground in front of Nikolai. Julian looked up in bloodshot eyes while Nikolai looked down on him. Without saying anything, Nikolai turned and sprinted in a different direction.

“He’s going after our monolith!” Veron shouted as he ran after Nikolai. Julian was left on the ground, trembling with rage at the humiliation that Nikolai made him grow through.
