《Blood Evolution System 》Chapter 50: The third assessment!
Advertisement
The next day, the temporary students woke up early in the morning, some without any help at all, some with the help of alarm, some with the help of the faculty members, and some with the help of the droids.
After taking a cold shower, Nevis dried his body with a towel and wore a fashionable set of clothes, before walking out of the bathroom and sitting on one of the two beds, and he then turned to look at the person meditating on the other bed.
"So, she is your sister. Buddy, can you tell me more about her?" Nevis asked as he pretty curious about the angelic sister he saw last night and he wanted to know more about her.
Peter gave him an exhausted look. It might be pure coincidence or some other reason, but he and Nevis somehow ended up being roommates. Last night, he kept on asking questions about Vincent and his sister, exhausting him to the point where he fell asleep in the middle of the chat.
"I told you already to forget about her. You will only end up in pain if you chase after her. Although you are a royal, you don't have a chance to impress my sister. After all, she is already head over heels for big brother Vincent. I know for a fact that they had both like each other for a while, but it's just that they never expressed their feelings to each other. Once they do, they will become an inseparable couple."
As soon as Peter said those words, the eyes of Nevis blinked in wonderment as he looked at him in bewilderment. Immediately after, his eyes widened as if he realized what's happening.
"Buddy, I think you're misunderstanding my intentions. Last night, I only sacrificed myself for the benefit of others. I have no interest in your sister as a woman. I am genuinely interested in her as a person and would like to know her better and possibly even befriend her. That's pretty much all. She isn't my love interest or anything like that," Nevis said as he tidied his wavy hair.
"But yesterday, didn't you say that you will try to win her heart?" Peter said as he scratched his head in confusion.

"Oh that. I guess it really was misleading. It's all become of Generous Viewer. You see this?" Nevis showed him yesterday's lifestream chat. "He told me to act like that, and he even send me 2000 rockets, as I managed to break Vincent's stoic character and forced him to say what he felt in his heart," Nevis said with a smile as he believed that he did a good job with uniting two people in love.
"Ah. Now I get it," Peter said. "What's the rockets for? Is it some kind of money that online streamers get?"
"I guess you can say that. It can be exchanged for virtual credits. You need 500 rockets to exchange for one virtual credit. I earned 4 last night," Nevis said.
"How much is that in federation cash?" Peter asked as he was curious about the currency exchange rate.
He was never able to gain access to virtual reality as he wasn't rich enough to buy a device that can connect to the virtual network. The information related to virtual reality can only be found in the virtual world. That's why he didn't know the value of virtual credits.
"Hmm, a single virtual credit can be traded for nearly five thousand federation cash," Nevis answered after glancing at the exchange rates.
"Wow, that means you earned 20k in one day, and that too by doing nothing at all," Peter exclaimed as he looked at Nevis.
"Buddy, how can you say that? I work hard alright. I completed my viewer's request. That's why I got awarded with so many rockets. Besides, didn't you saw them leaving the infirmary together? I believe that I helped pushed their relationship to the next level. You can hardly find a good man like me that acts as a matchmaker in this world," Nevis said as he recalled them peeking at Vincent and Leila last night while hiding in the corridors.
"We still don't know about that," Peter replied before he stood up to wear a new set of clothes.
"You will see!" Nevis exclaimed as Peter closed the bathroom door on his face.
After Peter came out of the bathroom, it was already near the time for the next assessment to begin.

"Buddy, let's go. Only five minutes are left before the next assessment begins," Nevis said.
"Eh? Were you waiting for me?" Peter said as he looked at him with an expression of bewilderment.
"Duh, isn't it obvious?"
Peter scratched the back of his head as he thought that it has only been a day since they met yet he is treating him like a close friend. Is this person that thirsty for friends?
"Alright, let's go together," Peter said.
Thus, he and Nevis headed out of the room, walking towards the exam room. It wasn't just them as a lot of students could also be seen sprinting towards the same place where they were heading.
As they were walking through the crowd, Varth sneakily brushed past them. A tiny insect-shaped record jumped out of his sleeves and entered Peter's clothes without anyone noticing.
A few minutes ago, the persons who Nevis and Peter were talking about were laying on the bed, one sleeping soundly in the warm embrace of her lover while the other staring at her, wondering why he didn't clearly express himself earlier and held her hand sooner.
It's because he was the type of guy that finds it hard to express his feelings clearly.
"She looks so cute," Vincent thought while staring at Leila's sleeping face.
In the middle of the night, she has transformed back into a human being.
Leila's eyes fluttered open as she felt someone's hot breath brushing against her skin. She looked up and saw Vincent staring at her.
"Good morning," Vincent said as he kissed her forehead.
Leila's cheeks flushed red and she hid her face in his chest, her heart pounding rapidly.
"You too. I hope you have a nice day," Leila said in a gentle and meek tone.
"Thanks for wishing me well," Vincent said as he caressed her head. "Go get ready. We don't have much time left."
After he said those words, Leila turned around to look at the clock and her eyes widened as she realized that only ten minutes were left before the third assessment begins.
"You should have woke me up sooner," she complained
"It's honestly your fault. You looked so cute while sleeping that I forgot everything else, and just continued to stare at you," Vincent said as he teasingly smile.
"I am gonna get ready!" she exclaimed as she evaded his gaze.
Leila pinched his cheeks, stood up, and went to the bathroom to dress up in a hurry.
"Let's hold hands," Vincent offered one they were ready to head out of the room.
"Sure," Leila replied as she held on to one of his hands.
Along the way, Vincent and Leila met up with Nevis and Peter.
Once Nevis saw him holding Leila's hand as she was his treasure that he couldn't afford to lose, a smile stretched across his face.
"See that?"
"Yeah. From that small gesture of holding hands, I can see that they have gotten closer," Peter said as he rubbed his chin while looking at his sister and her boyfriend while standing a few steps away from them.
"I told you so," Nevis said with a smile.
The temporary students hurriedly made their way to the examination room. The examiners were already in the room, sitting on comfortable chairs, sipping on some kind of refreshments.
"Senior, what's the test going to be about?" Kayle asked as she looked at the elven men sitting beside her.
"A simple psychological game," Theodore replied with an expression of mysteriousness. "Those who fall short to live up to our standard will be immediately filtered out."
"I'm guessing a lot of students will break under the pressure," Alex said.
"Hmm, you're correct. A sword that easily bends and breaks is useless to our cause. After all, it will only be burdensome to carry such swords. So I thought that this year, it's better to disqualify such students, rather than accepting them all, and as this is the last test that allows disqualification, I decided to hold it on my own. I hope you guys aren't dissatisfied." Theodore said as he crossed his legs, looking at the temporary students with a thoughtful gaze.
"Not at all," Kayle said.
"I think like. Besides, it's as you say, Senior. It's useless to waste resources on students with fragile mentality."
As Alex said those words, Theodore closed his eyes as warm and bitter liquid went down his throat, clearing his senses and warming his body.

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
