Although Bernard didn't know what really happened he felt it might be related to either the game or Sophia, however after he asked Emelia and she refused to say anything he didn't bother himself to ask anymore and simply shrugged his shoulders, one thing he had learned so far about women was that they were a lot of work and specie that couldn't be understood so rather than trying to ask her what was wrong.
He would simply let her sort things out herself, during the entire walk to their dorm both girls were relatively quiet, making Bernard surprise for once he had thought Sophia had finally come out of her shell but judging from the cold and emotionless look still on her expression he was totally wrong it was like this Sophia was different from Sophia of before, while one was always cold and emotionless, the other instead was the jovial type and liked to interact.
This prompted him to wonder if everything that happened then was because of the game or if she was simply in a good mood, nevertheless, he was still very much in a good mood not only had he found the game that would help him gain more experience and become skillful, but he had also witnessed how the game works and also earn some understanding of Rebirth as well during when Sophia was fighting, which would prove to be very useful when he finally create his ID and start playing the game.
Although he couldn't play today, he still managed to gain a lot like someone who had played the game, even though it was from a spectating angle it still broaden his view and understanding, most especially when he saw just how well Sophia used both the weak and strong symbiote bloodline she choose in her fights, it made him realize he could also do the same thing since for a while now he had been wondering what to do with the extra four symbiote bloodlines he had, while both girls were still silenced Bernard instead was anticipating the next day, he simply couldn't wait to start playing Rebirth.
The only reason he didn't start playing the game was that it was already getting late and was almost time for curfew, even though playing the game was important so was his life as well he didn't want to jinx himself just because he couldn't contain his excitement, this was why he decided it would be best to start the next day considering he could use this night and review certain things he did not understand, not only that he plan to watch the video Mr meow meow had created for him.
When they finally got back to their dorm, they realize Ryan was still inside his room what's more it was like he hadn't even gone out during the entire time, and was just inside resting Emelia couldn't help but look at Bernard and wondered if he had any idea about what was happening to him.
However, he simply shook his head and walked toward Ryan room after he arrived Bernard raised his hand and knocked on the door, however, there was no response almost as if no one was inside but then he could feel Ryan was inside the room not just that he even sensed he was awake but was just refusing to open the door.
Bernard felt a bit conflicted before he and Emelia left during the morning time, he didn't bother to call him due to the fact he thought Ryan might be going through a phase that was related to the seconds years and thought it was best to let him sort out things himself, but now judging from the look of things he likely wasn't over the phase yet and he might have underestimated how serious it was as well, he raised his hand again and was about to knock on the door but soon decided against it if by tomorrow Ryan hadn't still opened the door then he would know something was wrong and call for help.
"Is Ryan okay?''Emelia asked when she saw Bernard didn't knock on the door anymore.
"Yeah, maybe," Bernard replied, a bit unsure of what to answer, and smiled instead.
Eventually, everyone got inside their rooms and closed the doors, meanwhile, after everyone got to their rooms two people were not able to sleep these people were Ryan and Bernard although for a completely different reason, for Ryan he was glad and happy that Bernard and the girls were not hurt and had been free just like the second years had promised, however another part of him felt dejected and guilt, he felt everything that was happening was all his fault even though he was trying to fix his mistake he was just adding another mistake on top the one he was trying to correct even if it was for a good cause.
He didn't know the way Bernard and the girls would react when they eventually find about what he had done, although he had agreed to do the second years bidding once more just so they would be free what he didn't know was the second years had lied to him instead, he couldn't help but think about the old man Quzin as he thought about him he wondered what the old man would have done in his place, would he had accepted to do what he said he would not do again just to save his friends? or would he simply had rejected even when the lives of his friends were at stake?
Meanwhile, for Bernard inside his room, he was standing before his mirror bare chested and was only in his underpants, since he could not sleep he thought of practicing the posture of the two sets of skills in the video Mr meow meow created.
After practicing the postures for a while he realized he wasn't getting it right so he decided to go watch the videos again, with eyes as bright as the sky and a system interface before his face Bernard continued to watch the videos.
Although he had enough points to use sprint and meow meow cat strike, they weren't still enough to use them casually this was why he was putting so much effort into practicing the skills because he knew once he cast them out there was no going back and the moment he missed the opportunity to hit his opponent he was in soup.
The video of Mr meow meow kept playing for a while, from just slow motion he changed it into reverse slow motion so that way he would be able to get a better view, for some reason he felt doing it this way was more detailed and would impart on him more, the feeling although was weird he was gradually understanding it, and without him realizing it he soon felt asleep while the video was still playing in front of his face, however after a while the interface soon close as well.
