Chereads / Chosen By The System: The Avatar's Journey / Chapter 106 - A Natural Born

Chapter 106 - A Natural Born

"AAARGH!!!" Miller's anguished cry pierced the air, echoing with intense pain that reverberated through the room.

The sound of impact filled the space as Sophie's hardened nails tore through Miller's flesh.

SPLAT!

SPLAT!

SPLAT!

The crimson stream of Miller's blood gushed forth from the deep laceration on his forearm, cascading down his skin in a torrential flow. Each droplet splattered against the floor, leaving dark, glistening stains that marred the once pristine surface. The metallic scent of blood permeated the air, mingling with the atmosphere of fear and shock that gripped the room.

"Cover his mouth!!" Benjamin shouted at one of the male students.

Lucas Roberts, one of the students went forth and covered Miller's mouth in an effort to silence the boy.

"He is of no importance, he is not fit to be our LOKI LUPIN." Alexander said in disgust.

"Look." Sophie said as she pointed at the place where she had scratched with her hardened nail.

No blood was rushing anymore, the place had completely healed within seconds and Miller had stopped screaming. It was like Miller was never scratched on that forearm.

"It's so clean, like it never happened" Sophie said: "Now do you think, he is not fit to be our LOKI LUPIN for the upcoming Full Moon".

There was a great silence in the room, all the Werewolves who thought Miller wasn't fit for anything kept quiet because Miller's sudden fast healing has just proved them all.

"A person who should hold the position of a LOKI LUPIN should be able to regenerate incase of any attack that occurs that day" Sophie said.

"So do you all think, he shouldn't be our LOKI LUPIN, if you disagree, say something, Because time is not on our side and we might likely start the initiation Tomorrow" Sophie Said.

A student raised his hand for a question, his name was ISAAC JOHNSON. He was one of the Werewolves present.

"We don't know if he is a Vampire or maybe sent by one of the Vampire Lords, should we not take any safeguarding measures" Isaac said out of concern.

"He is right ma" Olivia, one of the female student who was a Werewolf said: "Last time, we put a Vampire as our LOKI LUPIN and it became detrimental to our pack".

"The kids are right" Alexander said.

"Alright, when we were walking to this room, we walked in the sunlight before reaching my office, he didn't show any sign that he was Uncomfortable with the Sun...." Sophie got interrupted by Isaac's reply.

"But ma, we all know that Vampires are more intelligent than we are, they have been able to create crystal rings that when they were it, they might be able to surpass the effect of the Sunlight on their body for a long period of time" Isaac said.

"But he isn't clearly wearing any" Sophie said as she raised both of Miller's hand upward showing them all his fingers.

Miller was still scared and did not say anything, he just listen to their conversation.

"What if he has been trained to be able to hide the side effect, if he is really a Vampire it would be really bad" Daniel; Another Second Year Student said.

Sophie brought out a big sigh: "No matter, how a Vampire trains or how powerful they become, they can't fight the natural law which is to become weak whenever they get hit by direct sunlight....." Sophie got interrupted when talking again.

"But....." Isaac wanted to say another thing, but he got interrupted by Sophie's eyes.

Sophie had looked at him with irritation, she didn't want any more questions from him.

"You all can clearly smell his scent, he doesn't have the scent of a Vampire" Sophie said.

"But what if he was able to hide his scent, remember Vampires are way smarter than us" BENJAMIN finally spoke again.

"Look, he isn't a Mutant, Because a Mutant still has still smell of a Human, he just has a different smell, we can't figure out yet, he doesn't have the scent of a Human, nor A Vampire or a Werewolf. I believe he is our Perfect LOKI LUPIN" Sophie said firmly.

"Why don't we just ask him what he is!" Benjamin said as he raised Miller by the collar, so that Miller would stand up.

With his hands still on Miller's collar, he asked these questions: "What the hell are you?" He said.

"I was born this way" Miller said. The reason why Miller lied was because the System had told him to do so.

Although he didn't trust the System also, he just felt like he should also keep the fact that he is a Throsk'Bok a secret. Even if he doesn't know what a Throsk'Bok is or what they are capable of? Regardless, he still needs to keep it a Secret.

"How the Hell can you be born...." Benjamin's words were interrupted by Sophie's words.

Sophie Said: "Look at who is talking, Weren't you also born a Werewolf?".

Benjamin calmed down his Anger Because he knew what she said was True. unlike the others in the room that were mostly initiated by choice or by accident or by force. Benjamin was born naturally as a Werewolf.

It was something that happened once in a Century. Those who were born naturally as Werewolves were much more Stronger than an average Werewolf. An Average Werewolf would not be able to turn into A Full grown wolf Except under the full moon or under certain circumstances like Pressure or Anger.

But Benjamin as A Natural Born Werewolf could turn anytime he chooses with no limitation and with a great stamina. He had great strength than other Werewolves. Being a Naturally born Werewolf was in a way better than being the other kind of Werewolf.

"So what are you then?" Sophie asked Softly.

Sophie was the only one who was able to see The best in Miller.. Benjamin didn't see a Thing, Alexander was just neutral. The Students on the other hand were scared of him behind a Vampire, Because of what happened the last time.

"I really don't know" Miller lied.

"You may leave, we would get back to you this evening, if we want you to be our LOKI LUPIN" Sophie said.

"What's a LOKI LUPIN?" Miller asked.

"If you know what a LOKI LUPIN is and you are not one of us; We have to kill you" Sophie said.

Miller just kept quiet.

"You can go" Alexander said to him.

Miller left Immediately, he had been looking for a way to leave ever since and now was the time. Even if he was eager to know what they meant by LOKI LUPIN. His fear for his life's safety was overwhelming.

"You guys can also leave" Benjamin said to the other Werewolves students. They all left instantly.

"So what do we do? We have no choice, we really need a LOKI LUPIN" Sophie said.

The three of them; Sophie, Alexander and Benjamin were now the only ones in the room, when Sophie uttered those words.

"You are right, but making someone our LOKI LUPIN is very important, but we cannot just go and choose, this young boy Because of he has Super healing, that is not a Criteria" Alexander said.

"So what do you think, we should do?" Sophie asked.

"Let's keep an eye on him. If we are satisfied with his suitability for the role by tomorrow, we can make him our LOKI LUPIN for the upcoming full moon." Benjamin said.

They all nodded their head in agreement as they all left the room (Sophie's office).

As Sophie locked the office door with her key. A thought ran into her head of what happened with the last Vampires that were their LOKI LUPIN.

'Would only one Teenage Child, be enough' She thought to herself. 'Please, Miller, I really really hope you are fit for that role. The entire lives of the humans in this school depends on you'.
