BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50 Missing!
Vernisia and her parents sat down on couches in the living room.
"Mom, that Galen is not good. He sent his men to observe Zevien, and I am sure he is planning to do something," Vernisia said severely while looking at her mother.
"You came this late to tell us this?" Susan frowned, "why would Galen do something to Zevien. He probably doesn\'t even put him in his eyes. His status is way higher."
"How do you know this, Verny?" Amon asked thoughtfully.
"We have a clear proof of it," Vernisia said plainly, "also, I might as well tell you that Zevien is not what he seems on outside. He is building a company at this age, and he even has several products being researched. I have seen them, and two of them are going to bring major changes in the lives of everyone."
"What? How can he start a company? Humph, you need a lot of money for that. He probably fooled you," Susan said as she shook her head.
Vernisia stomped her feet and said with slight anger, "how can he fool me when I see everything with my own eyes? He also has access to a unique magic spell comparable to tier-5 or even higher, depending on who uses it. I am close to learning it after a month of daily training as well."
"Another thing: He can remain absent from the academy because he is handling his business and is smart enough not to fail the test despite that. Our homeroom teacher also believes him and lets him do as he pleases," Vernisia finished speaking before she took a breath and looked at her parents, "you have to stop that Galen from doing anything to Zevien."
"He won\'t do anything," Susan sighed, "I already told him that you need one year of time to think about it. You will see how he is when he comes to the academy here as an exchange student."
Amon shook his head and spoke, "stop dreaming, Susan. With how our daughter currently is, do you think she will change her mind? Also, I don\'t fully agree with you on that Galen being a good boy or whatever. That is simply impossible considering his status."
"But that family is-"Susan said, but she was interrupted.
"Enough," Amon said with a serious expression, "just tell your friend that we won\'t accept this marriage."
Susan became tearful and spoke, "why are you two like this? I was just thinking of Vernisia! She can have a good life there!"
"I have a good life right now! And I can have a good life in the future by being with someone I want to be! Not with someone that I don\'t like and forcing me!" Vernisia raised her voice agitatedly, "why can\'t you understand something so simple? Didn\'t you and father marry because of your choice? Or someone forced you?"
Susan opened her mouth but closed it again as she had no words to say.
"Indeed," Amon nodded before he turned to his wife, "Susan, tell your friend that this marriage will not happen and end this matter."
Susan sighed and nodded, "alright, I will tell her tomorrow."
Seeing her agreeing, Vernisia was overjoyed and hugged her, "I knew you would understand!"
"Silly girl, even if I understand this, I won\'t understand you being together with that brat unless I firmly believe he is capable."
"Let the time tell that," Vernisia grinned before she walked back, "alright, but tell Galen to stop his men from observing Zevien right now. You have his number, right? Give me; I will talk to him."
"Fine," Susan nodded as she gave Galen\'s number to Vernisia.
"Bye and good night. I will talk to him on the way," Vernisia said before muttering as she left, "because you won\'t like the language in which I will speak with him."
Amon and Susan wryly smiled. Susan locked the door before she returned to the bed with Amon, "was she speaking the truth about Zevien building his company?"
"I don\'t know, but I will check it tomorrow," Amon said with a smile, "I believe that Vernisia wouldn\'t lie about such things."
Vernisia drove the car back, and while driving, she called Galen.
On the other hand, Zevien suddenly opened his eyes and frowned. He suddenly had a nightmare as he saw Vernisia fading away even though they were together while he was dreaming.
Even after waking up, he had a bad feeling gnawing at him.
"I don\'t usually feel like this," Zevien muttered as he stood up from the bed.
He decided to call Vernisia just in case since he had a bad feeling and the nightmare he saw was regarding her.
However, his face changed after a few seconds since the call didn\'t connect, \'even if she is sleeping, the call should wake her up.\'
His worry increased as he called Erica next.
Erica—, "urgh…what is it this late? You know that we have to wake up early in the morning."
"Where is Vernisia? Check her room and tell me if she is there," Zevien said quickly with a worried voice.
Erica was startled at Zevien\'s grave and worried tone as she got up from her bed before the room next to her.
Even after knocking a few times, Vernisia didn\'t answer. She opened the door as it was not locked and saw that Vernisia was not there.
Shocked, she quickly replied back to Zevien, "she is not here!"
*beep…*
Zevien cut the call and hurriedly called her Yowen.
Yowen—, "what\'s up, boss?"
Zevien—, "track Vernisia\'s Digi-watch now!"
Hearing the grave tone, Yowen jumped from his bed in the office and summoned Electra, "Electra!"
After a few seconds, Yowen frowned and replied to Zevien, "her Digi-watch is completely off. The last signal I tracked was three kilometers away from her house, just five minutes ago."
"Something is wrong, Yowen! Something is wrong!" Zevien panicked before he thought quickly and asked, "check her call logs from the database! You can check them even if her Digi-watch is off!"
Yowen—, "On it!"
Zevien went to Dan\'s room and knocked it loudly a few times before groggy Dan opened the door, "what\'s up, bro?"
"Vernisia is missing. We have to go," Zevien said with a severe expression before he turned around.
All sleep vanished from Dan\'s eyes as he followed Zevien while saying, "don\'t tell me that bastard Galen did something?"
"I don\'t know," Zevien shook his head as he and Dan left their dorm, "take my car and go to our office. I am going to her house."
When they reached their academy gate, it opened after scanning their ID.
They both left the academy as Dan went to the office while Zevien drove to her house on his bike since the last signal of her Digi-watch was near her home.
On the way, Yowen sent Vernisia\'s list of contacts to Zevien.
Zevien didn\'t check the whole list, so he didn\'t see Galen\'s number and his name since he wanted to call her parents.
He found her father\'s number on top and quickly called him.
When the call connected, Zevien hurriedly said, "uncle Amon, I am Zevien. Did Vernisia visit you a while ago?"
Amon—, "she indeed came here some ten minutes ago. Why? Did something happen?"
Zevien—, "she is missing! Vernisia didn\'t reach the academy, and her Digi-watch was off. I couldn\'t contact her. Please take some measures while I try to find her."
Amon—, "wait! Before leaving, she took Galen\'s number and wanted to talk to him because he was keeping an eye on you."
"What is it, Amon?" Susan asked with a frown.
Zevien cut his call after hearing what Amon said.
On the other hand, Amon got up from the bed as he tried to contact Vernisia but failed.
Getting up from the bed, he answered Susan, "Vernisia is missing. She didn\'t reach the academy, and even her Digi-watch is fully off. No way to contact her."
"What!" Susan was shocked as she hurriedly got up from the bed and contacted her police colleagues in the government. Amon also did the same as he contacted the secret police.
….
Zevien stopped his bike on the road as he didn\'t want to go to her house. Instead, he checked the contact list that Yowen sent him and found Galen\'s name beside one number.
He then hurriedly contact Yowen.
Zevien—, "Yowen, Track this number. Find his location as soon as possible!"
Gritting his teeth, Zevien started his bike and drove towards his office.
After entering the office, he took out the vampire blood vial from the cupboard in the room while Dan asked, "what do I do, Zev?"
"Found his location, and I also started live tracking him. Electra is basically inside his Digi-watch right now.
"He is in a hotel\'s parking lot right now and seems to be preparing to move out," Yowen said as he accessed the CCTV camera of the parking lot and saw Galen entering his car.
"Send his live location to my Digi-watch," Zevien said without looking at the monitors and used Blood Morphing Art to suck the maximum amount of blood drops he could. In the end, he managed to suck five drops of blood.
He also didn\'t know how long the transformation would last until his mana ran out here because he would never run out of mana inside the labyrinth and could stay in Vampire form forever.
From his testing, the amount of blood he could absorb indicated how much power he would gain in the vampire form.
"Dan, you stay in the car and get ready to move anytime."
At this time, Erica also entered the office with a somber expression.
"She insisted, and I called her," Dan quickly clarified.
"Good. You both wait in the car. I am going to meet that Galen," Zevien said as a cold glint passed through his eyes.
He put the blood vial back in the cupboard before looking at Dan, Erica, and Yowen.
He looked at Dan, Erica, and Yowen before saying with a severe expression, "don\'t tell anyone about anything that you are about to witness. Just forget about it."
Even though he had absorbed blood, he didn\'t transform into a vampire yet and was holding back. However, he unleashed the transformation as he didn\'t hold back anymore.
"What?" Dan asked with confusion, but that confusion was swept away in the next second as they saw blood particles surrounding Zevien.
After two seconds, they saw a transformed Zevien with his handsomeness increasing several times along with a new look.
His hair became shoulder length, and two fangs appeared out of his mouth with majestic bat-like wings behind his back. The wings unfurled to become four meters long with curved shape as he opened the window and flew out with a zoom, disappearing into the darkness of the night sky.
"Vampire?!"
Yowen, Erica, and Dan were shocked.
