58.Memory
Abraham sat silently on the sofa with his eyes closed. Yet he was able to see everything. That was because he had the dragon's eyes activated. During the whole night, Abraham continued to observe his brother and found the purple aura was still around the latter head.
Looking at Quinn's room, he could see the yellow aura laying flat. When he looked towards his brother's room, there were two yellow auras, marking that of Ginny and Albus.
With the constant usage of the vision, Abraham was becoming better at it and was able to use it for a longer period.
A few minutes has gone by when Abraham saw one of the yellow auras in a standing position and slowly moving inside the room. The purple aura on top was agitating, signaling Abraham that whatever Albus was going to do next was related to the influence skill used upon him.
Abraham got up from the sofa and approached his brother's room. As Abraham was able to see through walls thanks to the dragons' eyes, he was able to distinguish the cupboard by the wireframe.
Seeing the intense shaking of the purple aura, Abraham decided that it was time to take action. Using the shadow ability, he appeared inside the room and found Albus holding a small device.
Abraham immediately activated his own influence skill stunning Albus as the latter was about to scream. Abraham took the object from Albus's hand and started examining it.

[Quest Updated]
[The user has found the objective of the influence skill used on his brother.]
[Reward: Remove the purple aura from your brother's mind to get your reward.]
"I think the reward will be the memories of when the vampire used the skill on your brother." The system Ai found the most possible outcome.
From the way the quest has progressed, Abraham was also on the same thought. There was only one way to find out and that was by using a skill Abraham has not used before.
The fifth stage of Qi.
Compared to all the previous stages, the 5th one was very different. The first one allows the user to strengthen his interior body. The second allows the coating of a layer of Qi all around the body to protect it. The next one was to use Qi as an attack. It could be in the form of a Qi swipe making the Qi leave the body. And the 4th one was a sort of Qi soul.
Abraham had also used it to gain access to his soul room where all the power's flames were present.
It had been such a long time since Abraham had access to his soul room and with the dragon and vampire evolution he has just gone through, he was expecting great change inside. He intended to do it after solving Albus's issue.
While the four previous Qi stages focused greatly on the user, the fifth one was to use Qi on other things. It allows the user to insert Qi into an object, a person, or even a being and gives them a type of command. It looked similar to the vampire's influence skill.
Abraham touched his brother's back and inserted his own Qi inside. Abraham carefully makes it traverse all the way up to the brain and with overwhelming power, the Qi enveloped the vampire influence. Abraham had kept his dragon's eyes during the whole process allowing him to have a better view and control of the situation. The purple aura was resisting but after Abraham used more Qi, he was able to remove the purple aura.
The "ding" sound from the system alerted Abraham that the process was successful.

[Receiving reward: A memory video is stored in the system. Upon user request, the memory will be played]
The video did not start playing immediately, so he ordered Albus to go back to sleep before returning to the living room. Right now he had no way to revert Albus's memory of the meeting with the vampire he meet. But thanks to his canon knowledge, Abraham knew that it was possible to recover the memory.
Relaxing on the sofa, Abraham opened his system and found the video. He selected the video and played it. On the spot, his vision changed, and something familiar was in front of him. Abraham was seeing a door, the particular door he saw to enter Albus's apartment. Abraham felt like it was his body, but when he tried to move, nothing happened. A few seconds later, he found himself opening the door and getting inside the apartment.
As soon as he got inside, the first thing Abraham noticed was a man near Quinn. The man turned and looked at him but instead of a smile, Abraham noticed the confusion on his face. Abraham felt like the body he was in was about to ask something but just then, he found the man in front of him and the man's eyes were glowing red. He proceeded by asking about the name of the body Abraham was in.
Albus Talen.
Just from this conversation, Abraham understood the situation. He was looking from the perspective of Albus and the man in front was the vampire. The next question confirm Abraham's guess on how was the vampire.
He asked Albus about the vampire book and only one vampire knew about it.
Richard Eno.
One of the people Abraham was trying to avoid until he became strong enough. That was because Richard was one of the smartest people to live on the planet. If that was not enough, Richard was also the main creator of the system and had helped Vincent to build it.
If Vincent Eno was the great great..great grandfather of Abraham, Richard Eno was even several times older. In the vampire settlement, Richard was supposed to be in eternal slumber but here he was in the human world, living as the great scientist help fighting against the dalki.
Albus was trying to resist but when Richard increased the influence skill, Albus told him that the book was with Abraham.
The memory continued and Abraham saw Richard continue to question Albus about who Abraham was which Albus revealed under mind control. After viewing all the memory, Abraham saw Richard giving Albus the command to press the button when he would meet Abraham one day.
Then the memory terminated and Abraham found himself back in his body.
"Things are getting interesting. How should I deal with Richard to have the upper hand". Abraham spent that night formulating different plans each looking at its pro and cons.
