Although he had long accepted the fact he was now a vampire, he was still slightly worried most especially when he knew how much his body was now depending on blood like it was some kind of oxygen, on the surface, he was like everyone else but deep down he knew he was gradually drifting from the way he used to be. Thankfully, he didn't need to consume blood except if he was injured or was having an urge for it, this way he could still keep tabs on himself to avoid getting an addiction which was what he dreaded the most, he didn't want to jinx himself.
After the mechanical artificial intelligence sent him the ticket to his bracelet, Bernard got a beep and couldn't help but look at his bracelet when he did he noticed twenty credit points had been deducted from the sixty he was having, as he saw this for some reason he felt his heart ache a bit, although there wasn't much use for the credit points, other than buying snack to recover his energy he still liked the way credit points increase in numbers, not only that the feeling was quite satisfying because it gave him some sort of assurance.
Back then on earth, he could still remember how much he struggled most time just so he could eat just a single meal a day, compared to most people he had seen he didn't have the luxury to be picky about food, and instead ate every last meal to the point he would even lick the crumbs in the plate, even though not even that satisfied him he still did so anyways.
This was why every money he ever got he held them as close to his heart as possible, and for every spending, he did there was always something important to account for it, ever since he tasted poverty from when he was a little kid he knew best than anyone that wasting money was a sin, on earth even when his colleagues would go out to get lunch for themselves, he wouldn't go out except he was sure he was very hungry.
He knew just how difficult to get money was which was why the feeling of getting money always gave him a rush effect, and of course, the feeling of spending also gave the opposite effect as well.
Bernard couldn't help but smile when he thought about all this, even though everything felt like a big dream he didn't want to wake up from it this was why he made sure to put training himself and becoming stronger as his first priority, he had once felt so weak and small that his voice couldn't be heard, but now he would make sure to attain power in every step of the way and anyone who tries to stop him, he would take them down regardless of the consequences, as he thought about this he clenched his hands.
Without him realizing it, he was now standing in front of the VR capsule he had paid for, just as he was about to slide the cover of the VR capsule he suddenly saw something that made him surprise, since Sophia wasn't around he couldn't ask her making him wonder, why she didn't use it, what he was talking about was none other than a beast weapon since he was overly excited yesterday he didn't notice a symbiote user could still bring their beast weapon if they had one in Rebirth.
Although he had seen several opponents she murdered in the game use a beast weapon, he didn't think much of it since he didn't see any student carry a beast weapon prompting him to wonder if the beast weapons they had was bought with credit points inside the game, Bernard looked at the of the VR capsule and before his line of sight was a long square box and on the wall of it, was two bold written words SELECT WEAPONS.
From this Bernard finally came to an understanding, the students who used beast weapons inside the game didn't carry a beast weapon along with them, rather this box in front of him could allow the student to search for a beast weapon of their choice since every beast weapon in the weapon hall were fully registered in the academy database.
They could search for the beast weapon they wanted to use and it would appear in the game just like the real deal, as Bernard saw this he couldn't help but smile and thought if the game works just like in the real world then it was likely when he equipped the daggers he would be able to unlock the special effect of using the dual daggers.
[Would you like to search for a beast weapon if yes please[input name]]
When Bernard saw this he quickly type the weapon beast he was most familiar with, he also didn't need to worry about someone else using the beast weapon since he was the only person who truly knew how it works, so he wasn't afraid of another student taking it.
[Assassin creed twin daggers]
[Beast weapon has been found and can now be used in REBIRTH]
After he saw this he finally closed the lid of the VR capsule, and closed his eyes as if he had fallen into a deep slumber while the snakes-like plugs began to attach themselves to him, from both his head, chest, and hands until it got all the way to his legs at this moment he was completely wired and looked like a special military mechanical soldier that was being created for battle, the only difference was that Bernard had a smile on his expression like he was having a good night sleep.
After this happened, Bernard was finally inside the game and was now logged as a newcomer, compared to before when he was a spectator this time he would finally create his account for real, however since he had gone through some process of creating his account yesterday he didn't need to go through the long and winded process again, and was instead asked to create a name.
[Please create Your User Name]
As Bernard saw this he fell into a contemplation, he would have loved to use a random name but he wanted his name to be something special even if it wouldn't give himself out and blow his cover at the same time, however, he realized if he wanted something special yet wouldn't blow his cover he needed to think long and hard about it since he wanted the name to express himself in a way that would not let the academy say he was a vampire since they were already suspecting him of being one.
He didn't want a second interrogation to occur.
While he was thinking several names like Damien, Michaelson, Alucard and bloodsucker came to his mind, but he decided against using any of them because it was either the name was too edgy, cringe, or literally gave too much information that could even lead the academy to finally confirm their suspicion of him being a vampire, and also didn't want to straight out put a vampire in the name unless he was asking for trouble.
After a while of thinking long and hard, he finally thought of a name.
