Chapter 53 Dave The Treasure Trove
To his surprise, he had ran almost a kilometer without breaking a sweat, since he was already at the store he decided he might as well enter while he carried on with his inner thoughts.
Due to his excitement, Bernard was lost in thought so he roam inside the store aimless, without even bothering to look at anything even while the bionic Ai machine of the store wanted to inquire what he wanted to purchase, however, all he did was smirk almost like he had lost a couple of screws upstairs the smirk on his expression instead would have served to give the bionic ai goosebump if it had been installed the human module which granted bionic mechanicals human emotions.
Once past five minutes Bernard suddenly felt his bracelet vibrate, snapping out of his daydream he decided to check what had happened, the moment he did the smirk on his expression turned into a frown.
'Dammit, I nearly forgot every five minutes the store would deduct 1 credit point.' Bernard thought inwardly, he had been moving aimlessly so he forgot about this.
While he realized that his body was no longer what it used to be, even though he was still reeling in excitement he couldn't continue to overthink it unless he was willing for the store to deduct another extra credit point.
After paying for a few things he wanted, 10 credit points were eventually deducted as he was about to walk out of the store, that was when he spotted Sophia who was also at the store buying something as well at the opposite side of the hall he wasn't sure if she had seen him or not however he didn't bother to find out cause at this moment he could see three familiar faces at the exit point of the store smiling to themselves.
He could see Dave and his friends with some second-year students, they seemed to be discussing something since they kept on laughing leisurely, heaving a sigh of relief that they weren't the ones who saw him instead of him, Bernard raised the DC dark knight comic book he had just paid for to cover his face.
He stood there quietly waiting for them to exit the shop before thinking of what to do next.
'Hehe… Finally, the key to leveling up is right in front of me, I didn't need to waste time on tracking him.'
While he was waiting unbeknownst to him, Sophia had just spotted him when he was using the book to cover his face at first she thought he was trying to hide from her, however, as she waited and looked she finally realized he wasn't trying to hide from her but several students who were at the exit point.
'What's he doing?' She thought inwardly, there were two things now that were troubling her at this point. Why was he hiding from them? And how was she going to get rid of Emelia who was beside her and who would find it suspicious if she suddenly disappeared
While he was still hiding, Bernard finally saw Dave and his friends together with other second-year students separate, while Dave had chosen to leave the store his friends and the second-year students had decided to stay instead. When he saw this he couldn't help but smile to himself, with his friends not following him around he would definitely have a better chance at defeating him.
After watching him exit the store, Bernard immediately followed from behind as he began to stalk him. At the same time Sophia was also trying to get rid of Emelia who was engrossed in a fantasy comic book, but before leaving there was one thing she needed to do which was place Emelia, at the counter with the excuse of needing to use the toilet badly.
While she was trying her best to not seem suspicious Emelia wasn't even paying attention to whatever she said while nodding her head continuously to whatever gibberish was coming out of Sophia's mouth, as she noticed this in order not to lose his trail she immediately zoom off leaving the engrossed Emelia at the store.
Ironically, it was after Sophia had left did Emelia notice she wasn't there anymore, however, she was able to put different words together to realize whatever she had said was relating to "toilet" and "badly".
'Why does this seem so familiar?' She thought to herself while using the shadow from the night to hide her figure which was the same thing Bernard was doing as well.
'Why is he smiling to himself? Is he also drunk?' Bernard wondered as he followed from behind.

While the alcohol bottles weren't much, the flavor and spiciness in them were to die for and always made him taste for more, however it came at an expensive price which was getting more credits points.
