Chapter 47 - Beginning the Academy life.

After Tristan had woken up, Finn settled down and explained what had transpired and that he was in a lab made by the Coloured Knights Guild, the strongest index defence force organisation led by Blanc Noir himself, and they were also backed up by the Twelve Emperors, which Black Noir is also their leader. The coloured knights were rumoured to be so strong that they have enough strength to conquer the world itself, the organisation that is second to them in terms of power is the Alliance, they were the group that exsisted since two thousand years ago: they dont need any legal permission to do what they want since every Blood race created took hand in creating the alliance all except the Silver blood race commonly known as vampires.

The alliance were created to deal with any issue that might come their way, since they had exsisted before the world had fully developed to use democratic power they were above the law or one can say they created it, they also created the ranking system that brought tireless racisim and discrimination, any country who crossed their paths would be dealt with immediately and no one could do anything to stop them, except from the vampires since they were considered as higher beings even higher than the white blood race, Meaning anything a vampire say stands without question or hesitation.

One week had passed after the exam festival, and classes had officially begun in Obsidian Academy, Tristan had become quite the popular person after he was caught on camera while fighting the griffin. The news about his evolution had been kept a secret from the public, as it would cause too much unwanted attention around him. Blanc specifically kept his evolution a secret to only himself, Stacy, and Finn's team.

Tristan woke up in his warm bed and stared at the ceiling for a while; he felt a little overwhelmed after what had transpired in Night City, especially the fact that he had evolved into a newly awakened vampire.

"Another day," Tristan said lifelessly as he got up from his bed. He walked into his bathroom and stared at himself in the mirror.

"Morning, Tristan. Another day filled with endless possibilities!" Raven cheerfully greeted Tristan as he floated in the air, although he had no face or phsycal body he moved and acted like he did as tried to pick up a mirror but his hand's fased right through and Tristan picked it up and stared directly at himself like he couldn't recognise who he was, he opened his mouth to brush but had noticed sharp fangs sticking out his teeth.

"Hey Tristan, is everything alright?" Raven asked; his tone sounded genuinely worried, but Tristan continued brushing his teeth, clearly ignoring the question.

[Notice masters Usal mood has dropped down by 70% mostly due to lack of self-awareness and self-doubt]

[Advice to master: try to clear your mind]

"Though I'd hate to say it, L.I.F.E is right, your to doen in the dumps, maybe it's because you've evolved," Raven said as he floated in the air while Tristan brushed his teeth while staring at the mirror.

"What do you mean? I'm perfectly fine!" Tristan protested against the two of them as he threw the toothpaste remains and rinsed his mouth. He pulled off his clothes and turned on the shower as he got in the shower. Raven had noticed some change in his physique.

[Notice: Since after evolution, Master has become taller and stronger to match his evolved capabilities.]

"You're right, L.I.F.E. And his hair's gotten longer right now; he totally looks….. Like all those Korean K-pop singers who join a band filled with men for some strange reason." Raven said as he sounded like a total idiot.

"K-ore-an?, k-p-op?, What are you even saying?" Tristan asked as he clearly had no clue as to what Raven was saying as he showered.

After he had gotten out of the bath, he dried his long silver hair and wore his new uniform sent to him by the school.

Was it a black tuxedo-like uniform with a white badge on it? And it had perfectly fit his body. Raven, who was watching, nodded his head in approval like some kind of fashionista who had just seen the latest trend of clothing.

"He's looking good, am I right, L.I.F.E."

[Affirmitve]

[Master Tristan's attractiveness has improved from one to 50%] L.I.F.E and Raven teased Tristan's look, hoping it would cheer him up, and fortunately, he did. He had a little smile tugged on his lips; it wasn't grand, but it was still genuine.

*KNOCK* KNOCK* KNOCK* 

"Master Tristan, please come down for your breakfast!" Rimera gently said as she knocked and walked downstairs to prepare the breakfast table after she had finished caling Informing Tristan.

As Tristan had gotten to the dining table, Blanc and Stacy were already eating their breakfast.

"Good Morning!" Tristan greeted politely as he sat down on his chair and was served by Rimera.

"Well, you seem a lot better today?" Stacy said as he held up a spoonful of scrambled eggs.

"I'm sure it's because he and his girlfriend had gotten back together." Tristan nearly choked on the food he was eating from what Blanc had just said.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Tristan asked in a panic as he coughed a little.

"Sneaking off with the student council president on the night of the Gala was pretty smooth, lil bro," Stacy said in a mocking tone as both she and Blanc Grinned while teasing Tristan.

Realisation then hit Tristan like a slap on the face; it was the night Galaxy snuck into the mansion to take him for the mission. Tristan's face turned beet red as he blushed furiously. "Wait, wait, wait, it's not what you're thinking—, I can explain!" Tristan shuddered as he tried to look for an excuse but ultimately failed. Blanc and Stacy currently had an ultimate card to use against Tristan, who helplessly found himself in the situation.

"Master Tristan, let's go, or you'll be late for school," Rimera said as she waited at the front door. Tristan quickly stood up from the breakfast table and picked up his bag as he ran to the door, and he waved Blanc and Stacy goodbye.

"Is he going to be alright?" Stacy asked in a worried state; her facial expression were that of worry as she picked up a cup of water and drank, but Blanc said nothing but just smiled and stood up. "What are you thinking, Blanc!" Stacy asked in suspicion as she glared at Blanc.

"Nothing, it's just I never thought we would have a little brother to be worried about, but here we are… life can be crazy sometimes," Blanc said in a tone that carried not only happiness but also worry at the same time. Even though he smiled like he was happy, there was something within him that seemed to affect his joyful look.

Rimera looked at the side mirror and noticed Tristan's mood was different from before, and it all started after the night city incident; for some reason, she felt a little guilty maybe it's because of what she had said to him during the Chaos at the gala.

"You know I didn't mean what I said at the gala; it's just I have this tendency of telling people the truth so they won't get hurt later. I know it might be brutal, but that's how I do things," Rimera said as she fixed her eyes on the road while addressing Tristan.

Tristan quickly shook his head, denying what she had just said, not to make her feel less guilty but because that wasn't the reason he was sad.

"No, it's not because of what you said; it's because of something else, so don't worry," Tristan said clearing up the misunderstanding. After that, both Tristan and Rimera remained silent for the rest of the journey.

After some minutes, both had arrived at the school gates of obsidian academy, many student's walked in with their bags and uniforms, while others were being dropped off by their cars, while some rode bikes to school, and other students who had cars parked theirs in the school parking lot. Rimera quickly drove into the parking lot and parked there without saying anything. "Youngmaster, please, you can get out of the car now,"Rimera said as she stepped outside the car as Tristan followed in confusion.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going back home?"Tristan asked as he stared at her in a confused manner, but her calm behaviour remained the same as always.

"Starting today I'll be one of the summoning combat lesson teachers of Obsidian Academy and also your personal Butler. "Rimera said as she geneflexed and bowed at the same time. " Please if you have any worries or problems, you can always confide in me.' Rimera said as she stood up.

"Oh, I see this was big bro's idea, right?" Tristan said as he knew only his Elder brother could do such a thing.

"You are correct indeed," Rimera confirmed his thoughts, and in response, he just smiled, feeling a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

Rimera had told Tristan his class and had ordered him to go there before classes; she would join him immediately after she finished the teachers' meeting. But as tristn walked through the hall's he noticed Everyone's gaze were fixed on him, he posture quickly straigtened itself due to nervousness, in fact he was so nervous he began to shake a little, Tristan had never attended school and did'nt evn know what to feel since he was treated so badly all his life so this unwanted glare and attention was a new feeling for him, "why is everyone staring, did I do something wrong?" He asked as he felt the pressure against him.

[Notice: Due to your fame from Night City] Master's popularity has increased by 30%]

[would master like to look at his stats ?] the system asked. Tristan looked confused as the words "open status" appeared before his eyes.

"Open?"Tristan curiously said, and immediately a status screen appeared in front of him

"I remember this was the screen I saw at the hospital. I guess it kinda shows me my current abilities," Tristan said as he stopped and focused on the screen in front of him. Everyone who walked by stared at Tristan as he stood in one place and looked at nothing.

"What's the meaning of awakened in this title bracket" Tristan asked as he stared at the screen before L.I.F.E could answer Tristan's question.

"It means you've evolved into a higher form of your species," Evan said as Tristan turned around to see Mark, Rose, Finn, Evan, and Elara standing behind him.

"Hi Tristan, I see you've met my squad." Galaxy stepped out from behind her teammate, her expression serious, her vibes were strict as always.
