Rewind System: Vampire Harem In The Apocalypse-4 Chapter 4
*Smack!*
Xavier's eyes opened wide as he found himself standing once again in the middle of the assembly. A light stinging sensation occurred on the side of his neck, but he didn't bother to deal with it.
After looking over at his hands, he clenched them repeatedly.
'I made it back...' He thought to himself.
"System." He muttered.

He clicked his tongue as he noticed that he didn't keep neither his Level nor SP.
"My students... Once again, I'd like to thank you all for coming on this Friday! I'm sure you're all..."
The principal suddenly stopped his speech with a confused look as he witnessed Xavier get up and slowly walk towards the exit.
Other students looked on with surprised expressions as well. After all, it came out of nowhere.
"Um, excuse me, could the student who just got up please have a seat? We're in the middle of an assembly right now." The Principal requested.
Xavier ignored it, instead he found himself standing before the tall muscular brown-haired teacher by the exit door once again.
"I don't know what's gotten into you, but that was very rude. Have a seat and we'll discuss this aft-"
"Move." Xavier muttered.
The man placed his hand over Xavier's slim shoulder and began squeezing it.
"I don't know who you think you are, but you're coming with-"
Xavier's hair preventing others from seeing his expression. After he raised it and stared the teacher in the eye however...
"!?"
He flinched.
Bloodlust, anger, hatred, rage, fury, and despair. He had a mixture of every negative thought or emotion piled up inside of him.
His family was more important to him than anything else. When his parents abandoned him, they were the only ones who cared for him.
They treated him like their own blood son and brother.
And yet...
Someone... No, something had the audacity to take them from him. All of it from him...
The teacher could not even begin to comprehend what was happening inside Xavier's mind.
The teacher let go of Xavier's shoulders, and he walked straight past him, leaving the building right away.
"..."
The instant the door shut behind him, he ran.
He ran with all he had, as fast as he could in order to make it to the house before anything could happen.

9:25 AM.
After pushing himself ot his limits he made it once again. This time an entire minute earlier than before.
Upon rushing inside, he inspected every single room and what did it change...? Nothing.
The result was the same. Blood all over the walls, a severed arm, no one was there.
[Quest Completed!]
With a trembling hand, still somewhat hopeful, Xavier grabbed the knife and placed it just beside his temple.
*Pierce!*
[You have died!]
[Skill: Rewind has activated!]

Once again, another minute earlier.
9:24 AM.
He was still too late, so he decided to try again.
[Quest Completed!]
*Pierce*
[Skill: Rewind has activated!]

*Pierce*
And again.
9:23. AM.
Result was the same.
[Quest com-]
*Pierce

And again and again...

He couldn't beat the 9:23 AM mark no matter how many times he tried.
Despite dying six times, he couldn't save them.
In light of this fact, Xavier broke down.
He stopped doing anything on the seventh run, sat there and watched his status screen while all the events unfolded before him.
[Energy: 40/100] (-60% Rewind)
His classmates' screams, the chaos, it all seemed to fade away as he stared blankly at the screen.
'Why...?' He questioned.
'Why is this happening to me...?'
'Why did this happen to them...?'
'Who did this...?
*Tap* *Tap*
"Hello? Hello, hello?? Anyone there?" Suddenly, a voice called out to him and tapped him repeatedly on the head.
Xavier slowly looked up to find the pink haired vampire standing right in front of him with hollow eyes.
Short antique pink hair and silver earrings on both sides of his ears. The same vampire who started all this.
With confusion, Xavier tilted his head to the side and looked around.
As he did this, his eyes grew wide.
A blood bath. The gym hall was littered with organs and chunks of flesh belonging to his male classmates.
Despite trembling in fear, all the girls were unharmed by the corner. Some even fell to the floor and pissed themselves.
Xavier noticed that quite a few of them had also unlocked their abilities, and one had even created a barrier of sorts around the whole group to protect them.
Despite all their fear, they felt safe within the barrier, unaware that it was not the barrier that kept them alive, but the vampire's decision.
Xavier turned around and watched as some of the male students who had been bitten by the ghouls slowly got up from the ground and behaved differently.
It was as if their pupils had turned white, and they were foaming from their mouths and growling uncontrollably.
Without a doubt they had become a ghoul.
[Information Update.]
[A bite from a ghoul, turns a human into a ghoul.]
Mentioned the system.
There is no doubt that all of this information was valuable. Additionally, there were many questions, such as what would happen to the girls? Where would they take them? Where did they come from.
So many questions, so many mysteries.
However, it was strange. Xavier didn't give a shit about any of it.
There was only one thing he wanted to know.
'Who was it..?'
'Who hurt them...?'
*Slap*
Xavier's head instantly swung to the side before his body went sliding across the floor, through the chairs.
He came to a stop just by the Vampire looking down on him with a smile on his face.
His cheek had swollen up, the throbs wouldn't stop.
"You... You're quite interesting... While everyone was running and screaming for their lives you just stood there..."
"Was it fear...? That's strange... I can't smell any fear from you..."
"Hm~ You're quite interesting... Perhaps you would make a nice toy?" The Vampire asked.
"Was it you?" Xavier asked with blank hollow eyes as he stared right at the Vampire.
The Vampire, not exactly sure what it was the Xavier was referring to simply smiled brightly and said. "Yeah, it was me."
*Crack*
He broke one of Xavier's fingers.
Yet by that point, Xavier had been through so much, that he didn't so much as let out a single whimper of pain.
Instead, he bit his lip and smiled back.
"Hm?" The Vampire let out in a confused tone.
Xavier suddenly grabbed a hold of the Vampire's sword on his waist and pulled it out of it's sheathe.
[You are in possession of a Vampire's Blade.]
[The sword desires blood in exchange for power.]
[Will you let the sword consume your blood?]
"Oh~ Are you going to try and kill me too like your classmates?" The Vampire asked with an excited look.
"I wonder what sort of ability you possess... Huh?"
*Pierce*
To the Vampire's surprise, Xavier pierced himself right in his chest rather than piercing the Vampire himself.
"Huh...???" The vampire inquired in a more confused tone.
His expression was even paler than before, but he still had a smile on his face. Xavier's lifeless eyes stared at the Vampire's once more with the same smile before he whispered into his ear.
"I'll..."
"Kill you..."
"...Every last one of you..."
Those were Xavier's final words before collapsing.
The Vampire scratched the side of his cheek with a confused expression. 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶
"...What was that all about? He went and said such cool things only to die afterwards... This is why humans are so boring."
[You have died.]
[Skill: Rewind has activated.]
Everything turned pitch black.
