The olddy looked at Bernard with a smile on her expression, although she had no clue what he truly wanted to buy but she had brought out everything she thought he might be interested in.


    Bernard looked at all the items that she had ced right in front of him, after looking at them he noticed a few more things she was selling were actually random, while he was looking at the items that was when he noticed a strong nauseous odor, the moment he inhaled it his nose couldn''t help but slight twitch after smelling it.


    Something strange happened afterward, and notification messages began to appear in front of his eyes.


    [You are being affected by the smell of garlic]


    [Due to your heightened senses, certain things might be extremely bad to inhale]


    [Caution: Stay Far away!]


    All of a sudden, Bernard felt his nose begin to twitch even more like it was burning, he felt like he had just inhaled an acid and couldn''t breathe properly, besides this he could feel the hairs on his body was standing on their ends like goosebumps were exploding, however, the strangest thing was besides all this his stats wasnt reduced by half like the sun would, instead his nose was just burning up and he felt like sneezing non-stop.


    Bernard quickly summoned his system interface, before proceeding to look at the system in front of him. At that moment his nose felt like it was going to start smoking out at any moment because of the sheer amount of garlic he had just inhaled, while he was looking at his system interface the olddy gave him a strange stare since she noticed he had been acting strange ever since she opened her mouth.


    "Are you okayd?"The olddy asked, getting ready to shout out the word thief afraid he might have stolen something, it was not like she had not experienced such an urrence before so she was always ready to make a run for it.


    Every time some students came to the marketce and wanted something which they couldn''t afford they would start acting odd, and then the next thing they would sneak out stuff from the vendor''s store and start running, while most of these students had managed to be caught some with great thieving skill had still managed to escape.


    After hearing what the olddy said Bernard couldn''t help but take a step back, it was not that he wasn''t listening nor nned to steal from her he was simply too busy looking at his status screen before him, seeing his stats were okay made him heave a sigh of relief. However, he couldn''t understand why he was being affected by the smell of garlic, just the fact he inhaled it made him feel sick.

    ''What kind of drawback is this?''Bernard wanted to shout when he confirmed nothing was truly wrong with him, but he didn''t because he was clearly aware that he was not alone and he didn''t want to appear as a weirdo in front of the olddy, since he could see she was now staring at him with a look of suspicion in her eyes.


    Nevertheless, his mood became slightly better since he now knew he his stats and attributes weren''t being affected, although the system had told him he was being affected it wasn''t poisonous, which meant even if he ate it his nose would only burn but it wouldn''t affect hisbat capabilities, however, there was also a piece of bad news, which was that it could still be used as a distraction if he was in a fight especially if his opponent was someone who liked garlic.


    Bernard soon returned his attention to the things in front of him and ignored the effect of the garlic on him, however, he still didn''t walk back to where he was standing before due to the strong smell of the garlic, the closer he was to it, the stronger it affected him. Besides the items of clothing, there was also other stuff like metal chain earring with a cross on the end, when he saw it he couldn''t help but touch it even though it looked to have caught a little dust when he cleaned it off he realized it had a smooth and refined feel to its touch.


    It would be a perfect earring for a vampire, Bernard couldn''t help but think, and when he got a better look at it the color was a mixture of ck and silver, while the chain was made pure ck the cross shape instead was silver with a slight hue to it. When the olddy saw Bernard had finally taken a liking to her item the smile in her expression became more gentle, not only because of that she had also realized Bernard wasn''t one of those students who seemed like he was nning on stealing her stuff.


    "Alright, why don''t you just try the noble earring out, if you like itd?"The olddy said as she looked at Bernard, however, that was when she realized he hadn''t pierced his ears or had any signs of someone who had worn an earring before."Interesting, if you don''t mind would you like to pierce your ear? If so, let me clean my tools just in case they are a bit old and rusty, so it wouldn''t cause any infection to your genes."


    Bernard nodded and then stood still, as his ear was popped open after that she ced the chain earring on his ear, the olddy then gave him a mirror for him to look at his reflection when he did, he couldn''t help but admire himself although much didn''t change but the solid ck and silver gave him a touch of noblesse.


    Bernard then adjusted the earring a few times to make sure his flesh had not attached itself to it considering how fast he could regenerate. He was a bit afraid that after opening his ear it would have already started to heal, but to his surprise, none of that happened.


    [A noblesse earring had been equipped]


    [Stats and Attributes have returned to normal]
