The Vampire Cat System
Chapter 40 Hierarchy

While they were done eating, none of them stood up as they just sat on their seats resting for the meantime, even those who had longed eaten their food didn't dare to stand up afraid of what Sophia might do to them, her presence was too intimidating. The person who wasn't that bothered was Bernard.

After some time, an alarm soon rang loudly signaling for them that breakfast was over with the second one that soon rather notifying everyone that it would soon be time for their first class.

The moment the trio stood up and left, everyone suddenly heaved in a breath of relief. It was as if a heavy weight had been lifted off their shoulders, some rank 1 could already feel their military pants might had become wet if Sophia had laid even just a finger on them.

They had been realizing just how terrifying high ranking students could be, the fear of them was like the beginning of wisdom.

However, the fact a rank 1 student such as Bernard was with two high-rank students made them baffle.

"Hey, man, can you see how comfortable that dude was with those two high-ranking students?"

"Yeah, I didn't even notice he was just a rank 1 until you mentioned it." Another rank 1 student said with surprise, before touching his forehead and then finally his crotch which was on the verge of sweating bullets.

"Actually, I suspect he might either be hiding his rank from us, or he somehow related to those two."

"Do you think he's hiding his rank, or they maybe somehow be relatives?" another student lowered his head as he whispered his confusion to his rank 1 friend.

"I doubt it. If he is their relative it would be too embarrassing for him to be mingling with girls of the same age, except if his shameless. However, he could be hiding his rank."

"Plus, there was a rumor that there was a rank 4 student pretending to be a rank 1. If he isn't the one, and wasn't related to them it would only make him a target of other students,"

On their way to the classroom, Bernard realize just how weird the atmosphere was with him being the only rank 1 student in the midst of female students making others stared at him weirdly, as they were walking Bernard spotted two people Ryan and Barry, the moment they both sighted him Barry began to hide his face especially when he looked at Sophia bracelet.

Ryan couldn't help but wave at him out of excitement, as he rushed to meet him with a face full of smiles.

"Hey, Bernard."

The moment he arrived in front of them, he became stunned as he stared at Sophia who didn't bother to even look at him, her act of being cold made him realize she wasn't interested in talking to anyone, except Emelia who seemed a bit friendly but then wasn't saying anything.

Bernard stared at Ryan, compared to the way he was looking yesterday it didn't seem like he had been beating, much less in a fight.

After Ryan joined them, Bernard got to know that the academy clinic had given both him and his friend a dose of injections to their pleasant surprise they had been miraculously healed the next morning.

Just like that they finally arrived at their classroom, the first person they saw was Greg and then the parrot who sat on the desk, this was the same duo they had seen before. Immediately after they each took their seat, waiting for Greg to begin the class. However, Bernard realized something the moment he wanted to seat down, the classroom was divided into two with the left side being less than the right side.

The reason was simple, students of the same rank were sitting close to themselves with the high-level students being fewer than the lower levels. Everyone had realized this the moment they entered the class, however, no one complained about it as they acted oblivious to it.

While Bernard and Ryan sat close to themselves, Emelia had no choice but to seat with those rank 2 students, however to everyone's surprise they watched as Sophia pulled Emelia from her seat towards the rank 1 area.

Everyone could only watch with bewilderment, as both Sophia and Emelia suddenly sat at the rank 1 area where Bernard was sitting.

The moment this happened, the classroom immediately became noisy and the students on the left side began to talk within their circles with much gusto.

It was almost like they were having a meeting to decide what to do at this moment, the other student on the right could only stare and sometimes steal a glance at Sophia who acted cold towards everything that was happening. She couldn't be careless about what the other high-ranking students might think.
