Victor Planck

I soon regretted my decision

I was getting looks from people everywhere I passed

Some of the commoners were even throwing hostile glances at me

I wasn't too bothered by this stare, I know this notoriety has spread because of the rumors spread by the Frost family

I have learned that the media is a double-edged sword, this weapon can turn any lie into a truth that everyone believes

In everyone's eyes, I'm a spoiled brat who uses his family connections to get to a position he doesn't deserve

The central government always shows equality among all, as it relies on a person's talent and achievements to distribute positions

Students who come from a common background make up the majority in the academy. They see themselves as having reached this position because of their efforts. Of course there are noble students but these nobles have the necessary talent to enter this academy. In addition, the noble families have a good reputation because they defends the cities and regions under their rule

The sacrifices made by many noble families cannot be denied, because during conflicts and wars, members of noble families are at the forefront, so deaths among the nobles are high.

Therefore, the common people look at the nobles with respect but there is always someone who breaks this rule, and unfortunately for me, Elia whose body I am using now is this person

The library building was huge like a palace, I don't know how many books are inside this building, but I'm sure there are millions, this is without mentioning digital books

I entered the library, some students were noticed me, while there were students who were engrossed in reading and did not notice my presence

I walked through the bookshelves looking for books about aura energy and other types of energy

Suddenly I heard a voice from the side, "Are you looking for something specific?..."

When I looked at the source of the sound, I saw a young man in his twenties, he had light and soft red hair, big amber eyes, and he was wearing a red tuxedo that matched the color of his hair and eyes, he looked handsome and elegant

But the distinctive thing about his appearance is the lens he wears on his right eye

He was looking at me calmly, I was surprised because most of the students and staff in the academy have a hostile look towards me, but this person did not show any annoyance

I decided to talk to him politely, perhaps I could get useful information from him. "Good evening , I was looking for books or reports on aura and other types of energy…."

A look of surprise appeared momentarily on the young man's face, but soon he calmed down, "I advise you to give up. Many experts researched the issue of energy that humans can use, but they all concluded that human bodies can only absorb aura..."

"This…" I was unwilling to give up, Is it possible that there is no information about vitae energy

"Thomas Weir was interested in this subject, but even Mr. Weir also failed ..." It seems that this young man saw that I was hesitant, and therefore emphasized the futility of researching this topic

"Have you been doing research on this topic..."

"That's right. I researched energy for a while, but unfortunately it was one of the few things I failed at…" The young man said with a look of disappointment on his face.

"....." this guy is so proud of himself

The young man relaxed on the chair and put one leg on the other leg while adjusting his lens. "There are people who contract with demons and vampires, in this case they can use another type of energy, demons have bodies that can use energy called demonic energy and at the same time They cannot use aura, so people who make contracts with demons can absorb demonic energy, but according to the experiments we have conducted, this demonic energy rapidly increases human strength, but at the same time it causes damage to the human body, and these damages cannot be cured or repaired. or resisting it, and it affects their minds too so they become unstable and cannot control their feelings..."

The young man remained silent and pointed with his chin to the chair next to him. I moved towards the chair and sat on it

The young man continued, "Vampires can use blood essence, and they obtain it by absorbing the blood of other living beings. The stronger the victim they , the purer the blood essence…" The young man was silent for a moment as he stared at me.

I knew what he wanted to say, "And humans who contract with vampires can use blood essence..."

"exactly..."

Now I understand why the agents of the central government suspected me of being a spy for demons or vampires

There seemed to be a lot of humans who were willing to betray the human race to gain strength

This guy seems to have a lot of knowledge, I decided to take the risk of asking him where I was looking for "Have you ever heard of vitae energy?"

The young man closed his eyes, as if searching his memory for information on this subject

After a few seconds, the young man frowned and gave me a suspicious look, "This is the first time I've heard of such energy, where did you hear about it from?..."

"It's just something I heard from a friend, it seems he was talking about something he doesn't understand..."

The young man kept looking at me suspiciously, unconvinced by my words

I didn't pay attention to his look and got up "So can you tell me where I can find information about energy types..."

"It seems you don't believe me..." The young man stood up and started leading the way until we reached a section on human anatomy

The young man pointed to a specific shelf, "Here you find information about the human body and how to collect aura. There is not much research on this subject.."

" Why?.."

"Humans can use aura so efficiently, why would they waste time and effort to find another type of energy…"

It seems logical, I started searching in books and various researches, I was not an expert in anatomy so I did not understand many things, but what I concluded from this research is that aura is the only type of energy that humans can use without side effects

At first I suspected that this young man might be someone the Frost family had sent to keep an eye on me, And tell me lies to mislead me

But now I know he wasn't lying

But I didn't lower my guard, because he might be an agent of the central government

I bowed lightly to the young man, "Thank you very much for your help, mister..."

The young man got up from the chair and extended his hand, "Victor Planck..."

I shook his hand while smiling, "I think you know who I am, hahaha.."

Victor smiled softly, "Your pictures are all over the news inside and outside the academy. You're a celebrity.."
