A Slave...?
1188 Words
He couldn't help with it anyway because he had no idea about the place and the recent events that were going on.
One thing was for certain, he was surrounded by vampires. The sudden chill that he used to get when he saw someone was proof of it.
Also, the blood-thirsty red eyes which were quite beautiful, made him completely sure that they were indeed vampires.
"Now then...", he looked here and there to think of what to do when suddenly a notification popped up.
'Ding'
[ Mission 01 ]
[ The Awakening ]
-> Host needs to awaken the True Vampire Body by drinking 5 drops of human blood.
Time Limit: 00:23:59:59 ( 29 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds )
-> Appropriate punishment will be given on failure.
'Huh...?'
'Awaken by drinking blood?'
He was filled with anxiety when he read that. The system was clearly telling him to drink the blood of others in order to grow stronger.
'No way...'
'Does that mean I have really turned into a vampire?', he asked himself with his lowered gazes.
But then again when he took a look at the description of the mission, he found that he had to drink only 5 drops of blood of a human.
That could be easily achieved without killing any human.
"Maybe..."
"Maybe I can do that...", he gained a minimal amount of confidence thinking that it wouldn't hurt to just get 5 drops of blood.
He took a good look at the time limit so as to be aware of that. Also, the thing about punishment seemed quite normal to him but it was probably the most dangerous statement that was given by the system!
Essentially, the last statement meant that Jay could even die if the failure was horrible! He hadn't realized it and it was probably for the better because he would have ended up getting worked up because of it and would have messed up for sure.
'Hmm, so first I need to get out and find humans...', was what he thought.
That was because in the mansion everyone was a vampire so obviously he wouldn't find any human there. That was why he thought it would be best to go out.
However, he couldn't tell this to anyone because just a while ago he had heard from Rose about the law that prevented the vampires from harming humans and according to her, Jay was already a vampire!
'Isn't this a system?'
'Does that mean I would have my own status and profile?', he thought a bit about that right after which he tried experimenting about that too.
Of course, he did learn many things about the system while traveling to the mansion in the car, but in a little amount of time, he couldn't possibly learn everything about the so called system that was going to help him throughout his great journey which he was going to have!
"Well, ahem, show me my profile, System.", he said in a low voice.
It was completely silent for a while. Even the sound of the leaves of the trees shaking outside the window due to the breeze was heard clearly.
"Ahem, Dracula system! Show me my profile!"
Even after saying that there was no response. It was getting quite awkward for himself so he wanted to refrain from asking but he thought that it would be better to give one last shot.
And just as he was going to ask, the system notification popped up with an apology!
'Ding'

When he saw his race, he couldn't help but be in awe. He could clearly see that he was still a human but he had no idea why there was 'Rank Red' mentioned just beside it.
'System, what is this rank thing?', he asked the system in his mind.
'Ding'
[ Ranks are the most important form of remark given to strength ]
[ There are 12 ranks in total ]
[ Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet/Purple, Red, White, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Black, Crimson-Red, Red-Black ]
[ These are indicated when one uses their Family Spell/Arts ]
The more Jay saw the notifications, the more he got confused. Although some of his doubts were getting cleared, not everything was in his understanding.
"So, what is Fa-"
'Dub'
He was trying to know about the Family Arts or Spells by asking the system but just before he could do that, the door opened with a bang.
"What just...?"
He was shocked and turned his gaze towards the door almost immediately.
"Well well, so it was you who was fancied by my sister?"
A busty lady with silver hair or probably white hair came in after opening the door and said this.
Of course, Jay had locked the door from inside so he was surprised to see her open this. He then realized that the maid who guided Jay earlier was the one who opened the door since he was visible while holding the key in her hand.
"Hmm, I wonder why she is so into a low-level vampire like you...', she said in a low voice.
"...", Jay didn't say anything.
He kept sitting as if it was nothing and was just hearing her ramblings.
*gulp*
However, he was a bit scared because he was no vampires, at least not according to the system.
But he was some sort of superhuman of red rank.
"Tsk, would you look at that, the vampire there is trying to ignore me!", the girl got angry.
She seemed a bit more adult type, around 17-18 years. She did have a perfect body, one like that of a supermodel!
"No, I am not trying to ignore you, I was just surprised...", he tried to defend himself when suddenly Rose appeared.
"What are you doing here Sister Ann?", she looked towards the girl and asked.
"Aww, my cute little Rose, how are you?", she asked this first rather than answering her first.
"Yes, I am fine sister, but what are you doing here?"
"I was just looking at your little slave whom you brought today, haha.", she said this quite arrogantly.
"Eh? Slave?", Rose was confused when she said this.
"Haha, I mean him.", she pointed her finger at Jay when she said that.
"...", Rose paused for a bit as she looked at the room and Jay.
*gulp*
She then looked towards Ann with widened eyes and said, "He isn't a slave sister..."
"So he isn't even worthy enough to be called a slave? Pfft, haha!"
