Chapter 276 A Strong mind

As usual, the head general Pual had left on one of his expeditions . This meant that the three other generals were left to run the military base, including the school while the others were away . Mike, the oldest and most experienced of the generals, was mainly in charge of running the base and other soldiers when this happened .

This was a task usually for the head general, but because he was often away on other work, Mike would be put in charge . What this meant was the remaining two Generals, Nathan, head of first years and Duke, head of second years were in charge of running the school .

Inside his office, Nathan had his feet up on his desk and was laid back in his chair . It was the first time he felt like this in a while . With the first years on the outing, there wasn't much for him to do at the moment, and for the first time, he could finally take a break .

"I wish I had this much free time everyday," Nathan said . Although he was still concerned for the students, the fact that Leo would be with them eased him a little . He was one of the very few people who actually knew Leo's real strength .

The probability of the students being on a high-risk planet was low, but even if they were, he was sure Leo could deal with it .

Just then, a loud knock was heard on his door .

"Come in . " Nathan shouted .

The soldier quickly opened the door and had a panicked look all over his face .

"Sir, it's sergeant, Leo . He has sent a message informing us that he will be coming back soon . "

"What!" Nathan said, jumping out of his chair . "It's only been one day . "

The man gulped before passing on the next bit of information .

"That's not all Sir, I think you better take a look at the report he sent . It seems like the whole shelter will be evacuating from the place .

Quickly, Nathan read the detailed report that had been written out, and his eyes opened up wide .

If what was in the report was true, he couldn't fault Leo's decision making .

Inside the portal room, in the school . Multiple medical staff and military personnel were there waiting on standby due to Nathan's orders . The information from the integration at the shelter had been passed on . Most of the students had already been healed at the shelter, but this was just a precautionary measure .

Nathan was also standing in the room nervously tapping his foot away until finally, the portal started to flicker . First to come through the portal was Leo, and eventually, all the students began to follow from behind .

The students were led to their class groups where their teachers would round them and wait for further instructions . When the last student had existed the portal, and everyone there had been confirmed present .

Nathan gave the command .

"Cut the link . " Nathan ordered .

Two soldiers immediately ran up to the portal and pressed two buttons on either side of the portal, a few seconds later, and the orange wavy like colour had disappeared . Now when looking at the portal through the circle, the other end of the wall could be seen .

This was a necessary step to make sure that no beasts or other things would be able to follow them from behind and enter the base .

The portal was then quickly taken away, off to the side . It wouldn't be used for student activity and would only be used once again when the portal colour had been changed to red, and for stronger soldiers to enter .

The students didn't know what was going on as they waited in the room for the next command . While doing so, Vorden had a heavy thought on his mind as he looked over in the direction of Cia .

"Hey Quinn, we need to do something about Cia . " Vorden whispered . "She saw your abilities, and not only that, but she also saw Fex transform into that thing . I don't know why she hasn't told anyone yet, but it's too risky for her to know . "

Hearing this, Quinn couldn't agree more . It didn't matter why Cia was keeping it a secret . Unlike the others before, she wasn't a friend .

"Before you go," Vorden said, as he placed his hand outward and handed something over to Quinn .

When looking at what he had just been given, Quinn noticed it looked identical to the earring that Fex was wearing . Black in colour and a rectangular shape .

"It's that flying bull, it told me to hand it back to Fex, while you're talking to him you can hand it back . "

Quinn looked at the item, and found it interesting that the bull was able to transform into a small piece of jewellery like this . It really made him wonder if he would be able to get something like this .

As he walked over to Fex and handed over the earring, he leaned over and started to whisper .

"Hey Fex, we were just speaking, but do you think you could use your skills on Cia, to make her forget about the whole situation?", Quinn asked .

"I don't;t think it will be a problem, but I'll be honest with you . It's a lot of information, and a lot of things happened . It will be hard to fill in the blanks in her head if I do this . It might even cause her brain to be slightly damaged, removing so many events . "

Quinn didn't like the sound of that . He hated the thought that perhaps he would have to hurt people related to his matter just to keep a secret . Just because she had the fate of joining Quinn's team, it was possible she would now suffer for it .

When someone did something wrong to him, like the time in the desert, he had no problems, but Cia hadn't directly tried to hurt him .

"What do you think?" Quinn asked, hoping for some guidance .

"If it was down to me, I would have removed her memories already . It's just too risky Quinn . I know you by now, and maybe you feel bad for her . But if humans find out about us, then that means the vampires will find out about us, and I'm more worried about them . They will kill and slaughter every person that knows of this secret to keep it hidden . "

What Fex said had hit Quinn quite hard . Not only would they go after him, but Vorden, Peter, Layla, Erin, Leo . It would affect multiple people who had only helped him so far .

"Sometimes, we have to sacrifice a few to save the many", Quinn mumbled, as he clenched his fist . He hated saying these words, but he needed to convince himself .

It felt like what he was about to do right now was no different from what the military was doing . They hadn't;t even tried to save the people at the shelter they were just at . But they had a choice while, Quinn felt like he did not .

"Go ahead", Quinn said as he gave the nod .

Right now, Cia had departed from the others . She had agreed to herself that she would keep the other's secret, but honestly, the main reason was she didn't want to even get involved with people like that . A group of students who had way too many secrets, it just smelt like trouble .

She herself didn't like the military that much in the first place, so getting on their good side didn't mean much for her . If she could go through her life without ever having to interact with the others again, then she would be happy, the problem was she couldn't . . .

While deep in thought about what her next move would be, she felt someone walking up from behind .

"You . . . " She said a little startled as she moved back a bit . Still in her head were images of what the student had turned into . Although she was terrified, she quickly took a deep breath and calmed herself down . There was a high chance that Fex just had a transform ability that changed him into a type of muscular creature .

Still, she remembered the power and loss of control Fex had back then, and it seemed like the Bloodsucker was a lot more frightening than even the King tier beast they had faced .

"Don't worry, you won't be afraid of me anymore," Fex said as his eyes started to glow red .

It was the usual thing, and something Fex had done plenty of times while in school . He just needed to wait for the typical response as her eyes would start to grow dull and glow a slight red in return .

Cia seeing Fex's eyes slightly change stepped back . "Hey, what are you trying to do to me!" She shouted . As she said this, a few of the students nearby had turned their head to look at what was going on .

'Huh, why isn't it working? Am I too tired, No it can't be that . ' Fex thought . 'Is her mind strong?'

He didn't quite clock on to what was happening at first since it was a feeling he wasn't used to, but it was clear that she was able to resist his powers .

Seeing that now others were paying attention to them . Fex quickly turned around .

"Sorry, just forget about it", he said as he walked off back to the others .

"Did you do it?" Quinn asked, unsure what had just happened .

"No," Fex replied . "She resisted against it . It's the first time something like this has happened . "

'Isn't she only a level four ability user' Quinn thought .

The influence skill relied on one's charm skill . Up to this point, Fex charm had always been higher and stronger than Quinn's . Fex had used his ability on several students before and that included Level four ability users . He never thought of the possibility of his influence, not working .

The problem was, it didn't matter how strong the individual was with their abilities . It was all about how strong their mind was . There were some people Quinn could imagine the influence skill never working on, such as Logan, Vorden and Leo . These people were just too strong-willed .

However, when looking at Cia, he didn't feel the same way . Wasn't she just an ordinary student? So why didn't Fex's influence skill work on her?
