Although Ryan had understood nothing about what the failed ones were or what the halflings were, he was scared after hearing the council's name.

"Oh right. The failed ones: Humans who were infected but did not change completely. They have a thirst for blood but. The blood is poisonous for them at this stage. Consuming blood will only kill them. Most of them don't even live longer than 5 hours. And if they did survive for more than 5 hours, they will be killed by the council as soon as possible.

"Halflings: Humans who became infected and lived. They are kept away from Normal vampires and live in secret. They are killed if they are found outside their bases. 

"Halflings are also very lowly thought of. They are born of two vampires but have no abilities or power. They do not need to drink blood nor does the sun harms them. But most of them drink blood just to fit in."

Ryan didn't react. He didn't care about the vampires, he just didn't want to die at the hands of vampires. All he could do now was thank his god damn System for pumping out the venom and healing his wound. 

"Only the ones who infected you with their venom can pull the venom out of your body… no one else can. Of course, if the venom enters a vampire's body, nothing will happen. The venom inside the vampire's body will fight out the venom of another vampire's venom."

"I- it's complicated,"

"Sorry. Right. This is new for you and I am telling you everything at once… just an info dump, of course, it will be hard for you to keep up,"

"Still, what was with general Brandon? What was wrong with him?"

'As expected of you, Ryan. you sure know how to accept the reality as it is without any hesitation.'

"Ah, you mean the instinct of taking his items back?" Ryan nodded, "That is another vampire thing..." 

Devon started explaining to Ryan about the strong bond between items and the vampire. If that item is taken from him, he will feel a strong urge to take that item back no matter what.

But also that the urge falls down after a few days. If the items are not collected from the bottom of the heart, the bond will soon disappear.

This would not be the case with Brandon though. The bond between them is too strong for anyone to break. Brandon will go out in search of his items. 

"Do you have anything else to ask?" Devon asked getting up from his chair.

Ryan shook his head in denial. The fear of Brandon was still over him. He knew that a Head general was not someone you mess with but now… he was so fucked up. Messed with a dangerous vampire.

'I don't even feel the courage, the willpower to stand against and fight Brandon,' a chill down his spine, 'I don't even want to try fighting him.'

"Listen, Ryan," Devon turned, "You are so deep in the shit you were never supposed to be. Your life is in danger, you might die anytime in the future, I don't know," 

That warning scared Ryan even more. 'Wo-Ho. This is the first time I have felt this way since my first breakup.' Ryan thought as cold air started surrounding his body.

"I am sorry. I won't be able to help you at all. If it was some Academy business then I might have helped you but this…. I am nowhere as strong as Brandon, forget fighting the council."

"Y- you are weaker than Brandon? What is his-"

"Leave the vampire race alone, if we were to fight without using our vampire abilities: he still is a Head General which is the second most top position granted to those who use Traits and the topmost position granted in Military."

Ryan gulped. For a moment, he forgot what Brandon was. 

"He is an Elite Vampire: The offspring of two Vampires. When and If two Vampires mate their children age far more quickly and their abilities are far more advanced. They are born with scarlet eyes, but that is the only physical difference between them and normal vampires. But their powers are far far more capable,"

"H- he's a top-rank vampire?"

"No. he is a top race vampire. His rank? It's called 'Assecdents' they guide our guilds, guardians, hunters. It's the fourth rank."

"F- fourth?! J- just how powerful the first-ranked vampire would be?!" his eyes popped out. 

"Sadly, yes. Imagine how powerful a top-race, the top-ranked vampire would be. A Royal race and the first rank."

"And in the human world, Brandon has the top position,"

"Hm. Right. If humans are compared to Vampires, the top rank of humans is the fourth rank of the vampires. It's sad."

"Why didn't the vampires take over the Earth then? Despite being this powerful, they won't have any trouble-" he stopped when Devon started shaking his head.

"We are in low number. Humans together are way too powerful than we vampires together. Well yes, the scenario might change if we too increase our population to ten billion," he giggled.

For him, it was a laughing matter but for Ryan, he was already feeling the scare, he was already able to see what would happen if 10 billion vampires versus 10 billion humans war happened. 

'It will be a bloodbath….' Ryan thought, 'The third world war which will end everything.' the hair on his arms was pointing out. He was feeling the goosebumps. 

"Alright, for now, I will get going. It will be morning soon and I want to take some rest." Devon went to the room's door, "You get some rest too, you might have to face Brandon tomorrow,"

"Y- yeh. Right,"

Devon pulled open the door, "Good night,"

"Yeah, night then," Ryan's heart was about to jump out of his mouth. 

This vampire world that was exposed to him thirty minutes ago started overwhelming him with fear and excitement. He threw himself on the bed.

"But for now, my priority is to take care of Brandon's items." He said while opening his System's screen in front of his eyes.

'Inventory.' 

< Your Inventory (4/10): >

< 1. A bag of snacks 

2. A Vampire diary 

3. Sun Blocking Glasses 

4. Advanced-tier Blood flask >

'How to hide the presence of items in my inventory?' he thought the System will just stay silent.

< Can't hide presence. Your Inventory needs to be level 10 or higher to hide the item's presence >
