'Why did he have to spill that out?' Alex thought, worried as he could see the shocked look in Lillian's eyes.
Lillian had no clue that Alex was a Vampire. As for Catherine, she knows that Catherine can do magic due to Catherine telling her that she can do magic. But she has no clue that Catherine is a Dhampir. The only person that knows that is Miller and Catherine; herself.
"You guys keep surprising me everyday." Lillian said.
"How do you know that would work?" Alex said. "To be able to successfully control people's memory, I would have to train."
The system had already told Miller that due to Alex being a Mutated Vampire, all of this wouldn't be a problem for him. If Miller told him that it would cause suspicions to how he knew that. So instead, Miller said: "I believe in you."
Alex smiled back. Although he didn't believe in himself. Miller surely was always the supportive type.
The sound of the doors opening could be heard and in worked that massive man who was dressed in black suit and wore sun glasses.
The man closed the doors behind him and was now standing in front of them, looking at him Watson and Lillian both felt a little unease.
"So who would be the first to answer some questions." The man said looking at each one of them. "Well. I would just point you then."
"You." The man pointed Miller.
"Alex, Now!" Miller Commanded.
In an instant the man's eyes turned red as Alex's eyes also did.
'It worked,' Alex thought, excitedly.
"Let us leave and forget what just happened here." Alex Commanded.
The man didn't know what was happening to his body. His body was no longer listening to his command as it allowed all the five of them to leave the room and his memory started leaving him.
After a minute or two, the doors were opened again and in walked the others.
"Where are they!" The lady who had grabbed Jason by the neck said, surprised.
"They were not here when i arrived." The massive man said trying to discover why he couldn't remember.

Everyone of them had gone to their respective hostels. Catherine and Lillian went to their hostel and Miller and his friends went to their hostels as well. They didn't want to attend any class again for the day as they were all waiting for nighttime so that they could go and rescue Emily.
Miller was the one who was the happiest. At least, their was hope and based on what Catherine had told him he has to get strong and that person is strong. So Miller decided to enter his Construct Forge.
[Construct Forge Activated]
As usual, he felt that unusual feeling as he could feel himself leaving his body and all of a sudden he arrived in that white room that the walls shaped them like a cube.
Standing at the center of the room was Xentor who had a smile on his face. "I knew you would come back soon. Who can resist the temptation of Power!"
Well that wasn't Miller's reason, he wanted to get stronger to have a chance to help Emily or at least escape safely with her and the others.
[Construct Forge Activated Successfully]
"So now the last skill you leant before you left last time was Nightmare Infusion. Am i correct." Xentor said chuckling.
"Yes." Miller replied almost instantly.
The room walls started to crumble, and now they were in the desert with the hot, scorching sun touching Miller's face. Miller had gotten used to this and he felt like he wasn't even affected by the Strong Sunlight.
"Now, we have to learn about the skill knows as Umbra Camouflage." Xentor said.
[Umbra Camouflage]
[The user can Blend into any environment by mimicking the shadows around him]
"It is an easy skill for you since you already knows how to connect to your shadow." Xentor said. "All you have to do is to allow your body submit to the shadows around you and you would look almost invisible."
Miller closed his eyes and unlike his other skills, this one was even the simplest as he had done it on the first try. This was due to the fact that the Skill required a bit of calmness and he had learn that from Dark Echoes.
Looking at his body, Miller couldn't even recognize himself; he looked like the shadow of everything around him.
"That's amazing." Miller said.
"Now let's learn another skill." Xentor said. "You have six skills to learn. And I am giving you the right to pick."
"You have Shadow Blink, Shadow Doppelganger, Shadow Tracker, Phantom Step, Shadow Travel and lastly Shadow Devourer." Xentor concluded.
All of the skills are intriguing, and if there is one skill that Miller desperately wants to know how it works. It would be the Shadow Devourer.
"Shadow Devourer." Miller said. "I want you to teach me how to use the Shadow Devourer."
"Fine." Xentor replied with a smile and in an instant they were both transported to an arena.
