After Anna's explanation ended, Jayden was able to find several things. The Demi-Ashura weren't much of a thinkers, all of them were kept their for whatever crimes they committed. Their species loves to fight and even inside the prison there were lots of fights, where some would even die.
They don't focus much on speed, but on strength. There fighting styles were pretty good for someone their level. The prison too didn't look much different from earth, its a big open area like an island, though there are some differences like, the ground colour being orange with a shade of brown, the size of trees were two to three times of the ones on earth. And a few more minor differences.
After digesting all the info and staying silent for a few minutes, he asked Anna:
"I wanted to ask this earlier but, what is blood vampire, is it different from a normal vampire?
After pausing for a moment Anna replied "I don't know much, but what I can say for sure is that this must be a royal bloodline or maybe directly connected to the vampire progenitor, which allowed you to walk freely in sun."
Suddenly, a discovery hit Jayden like a meteor, sending chills down his spine. He said with fear still lingering in his voice. "Wh.. what would have happened if my bloodline doesn't have this effect."
"Obviously, you would have turned to ashes the moment you set foot in sunlight." she said in a flat tone of voice
"Did you knew that, because of my bloodline I will not turn into ashes? "he asked unsure
"Nah, I found out after you went into the sunlight." Anna said as if shrugging
Jayden was dumbfounded, and was at a loss of words. His mouth was twitching uncontrollably. He have seen a lot of vampire movies, to know about their obvious weakness of sunlight, but because of all the shocks and discoveries he had completely forgotten about it. If his blood didn't have the ability to protect him from sunlight, then he would be just a burnt corpse by now, just thinking about it sent cold sweat trickling down his entire body.
He closed his eyes for a moment to calm himself down, then taking a deep breath he asked calmly: " If you were unsure, then why didn't you inform me about it earlier?"
"Don't sweat little details, little Jay. This onee-san have a lot to think about" Anna replied in a seductive tone
"Oh, are you a busy body?" Jayden asked curiously ignoring his rage on Anna's previous remark
"Not really, I was just busy enjoying your reactions, you know they're pretty cute and funny." Anna said in a charming voice
Jayden exhaled deeply, not wanting to keep arguing with her, he just stood up and went to prepare for the quest which only have less than 30% chance of him returning alive. With the passage of time, he was getting more tensed up.
******
Imagine you're sitting in your house eating dinner with your family, talking and laughing while watching television. Then a news was released that within 10 days a huge meteor will collapse on Earth's surface, eradicating all life from the Earth's surface. What would you do?
Even though knowing of your imminent death, and knowing that you can't protect yourself, so the least you would want to do is to fulfill your dreams before dying if possible, whatever it may be. It could be discrete for different people, for some it could be owning a house, or to lose verginity, or to spend the remaining time with your loved ones and so on.
Jayden too unsure of what future held for him, decided to fulfill one of his dream, and that was to own a big house. He thought about losing virginity before going to Astrion, but due to a past incident, the one that happened in the orphanage, he found it hard to approach women more so after watching a 'ntr anime' which almost gave him a trauma.
...
Currently he was standing in front of a two floor house which have 8 bedrooms, 8 toilets, 3 kitchen, a small lawn and a swimming pool in front.
It was already fully furnished and renovated. After a full house tour, jayden liked the house more and more. Even the location was good, it was present in the area where the rich people resides.
After finalising the deal, Jayden was able to purchase the house for 37 million dollars, though the dealer first set the price at 45 million, seeing his age, but after a long conversation they settled at the mentioned price. Though at first he wasn't willing to show him the properties, but after Jayden used his Charm ability, he followed his orders.
Which made him confused so he asked Anna, if he could use his Charm ability, then what's the use of his ' Memory Manipulator' skill. In the reply of which she patiently answered as if teaching an idiot, though the reply elated his mood.
"Leaving aside your abilites memory reading and stealing abilites, you can't use charm on person who have around even half of your mental power and even if it works you could only give simple commands, while in case of your skill you could use it even on opponents stronger than you, though it will take a bit more time. And could literally create a new person out of them and shape them however you want"
After purchasing the house, Jayden went to a car agency and brought a Mercedes limited edition for almost 2 million, which left him with 11 million still. After putting the car and money at his new luxurious home, he went to carry out the experiments with his innate ability.
...
When he was finished, he was able to find many things about his ability:
He needed around 5 minutes to watch, create or remove memories from a normal human.
He was even able to turn a criminal into a total Saint, who admitted his crimes in the police station later. His ability changes their memories permanently.
The parts of memory he deleted would be gone forever. He was even able to lock memories, which would open only when either he unlock them or something happen that triggers that particular memory. The locking of memories took the least time only around 20 seconds.
But the thing that suprised and fascinated him the most was his ability to steal memories.He was literally able to steal others experience. Like if he steal a memory from a person who knows how to play paino, then Jayden will gain his experience and be able to play piano at the same level.
So he stole memories of a few dojo masters around, especially those with big achievements, immediately increasing battle prowess by a lot after which few messages popped in his head.
[ Learned fighting style: ' karate ' ]
[ Learned fighting style: ' boxing ' ]

After all discoveries, Jayden went to buy various things for his plans to work. When he was finished with all his preparations, he came back to his house and fell on the bed, before checking the remaining time and his hunger points values which was 62 at the moment.
[ Time left: 5 hours 3 minutes]
He soon fell asleep, trying to be at his best condition for the quest.
