My Vampire System novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209 Someone on the inside

After hearing about how Peter was able to obtain a new ability, in her haste, Erin started to gain hope once again. If there was a way for her to get it back, a chance to return to her former self, then she would take it.

Before she would have never considered it. There were too many downsides she saw both Peter and Quinn deal with. As long as she grew her ice abilities slowly with higher grade ability books, or if she was to find a good teacher. She would be able to progress up the ranks and eventually become a force to be reckoned with.

Still, right now, that wasn’t the case and her best option was right in front of her. What she didn’t realize though was the grave mistake that she had just committed. When asking Quinn to turn her, she had mentioned a particular detail that someone in the room wasn’t quite sure about.

Even now Quinn was peeking at Fex out of the corner of his eyes. Seeing just what his reaction might just be. Many times before Fex had mentioned the fact that he thought Peter had been created by an irresponsible leader.

However, Fex didn’t have much of a reaction. He continued to stand there no different to before. The reason being that he had already assumed Quinn was the one who turned Peter. He wouldn’t have been so loyal without his master by his side. It also explained why Quinn wasn’t so trusting of Fex in the first place other than his shadow ability.

Peter was illegal and if the council ever found out about Peter. Both of them would be executed. The reason why Fex didn’t have much of a reaction to what Erin was suggesting though was actually because of their Vampiric limits.

Even without the laws, a regular Vampire could turn at most one person. Someone like Fex could turn two and he would be given permission to do so when he ascended to the Noble rank. He knew Quinn’s strength and never thought he would be able to turn more than one person so Erin’s suggestion meant nothing.

Seeing that Fex wasn’t making a big deal out of everything, Quinn decided to continue on. "Erin even if I wanted to I can’t. It wouldn’t change the situation we are in" Quinn explained.

"What do you mean?" she asked, slightly annoyed taking a step forward.

It seemed like Erin was starting to regain her snappy confidence back, but Quinn could also tell this meant her emotions were all over the place and she was still very much unstable.

Taking a step back, Quinn tried his best to explain.

"First I think you’re forgetting the main issue here. It isn’t that your ability was stolen from you, but it’s the fact that the school and Jack are after you. Either way, we need to hide you somewhere and going to Pure is the best option.

"If I was to turn you and you were to turn into a ghoul like Peter, or maybe something else. Once they found out who knows what they would do to you?"

Although Layla felt a little hurt about the others talking badly about the organization she was in, at the same time she couldn’t really dispute and argue her case. If they did find out Erin was a type of Vampire they didn’t know about. Who knows what they would do to her, even Layla didn’t know.

" And the last issue, say you turned into a vampire, then what? Do you really want the same ability as Peter? To transform. I would have thought you would have at least wanted something similar if not better than your ice abilities."

"Fex can just teach me his string ability, or your shadow ability looks nice as well." Erin snapped back. Forgetting about the first point Quinn had made and only focusing on the fact that Quinn was able to help her gain power.

What Erin didn’t know was Quinn had learnt his ability through an unusual method. He hadn’t practised the techniques written down in a book. Everything just worked through the system. There was no way for him to explain or teach someone how to use the shadow ability.

And unless Erin was a part of Fex’s family. He wouldn’t be happy to teach her to use his strings either.

"Perhaps I should take over the explaining," Logan said as he moved forward. "The reason Peter got the transformation ability in the first place, was so he could hide in plain sight. We are currently using one of the missing male students from the planet Caldi.

If you did change your mind and gave in, ending up with the transformation ability, it would still be impossible to hide you, Erin. There have been no missing female students since the start of the term. They find you, and you will be taken to the dungeon. If Pure find out that you have been turned into a vampire, you will probably experience an even worse fate."

Hearing their explanation wasn’t calming Erin down at all but instead, it was making her feel drained and defeated. She thought that perhaps Quinn was her scapegoat.
