CHAPTTER 148~3RD PERSON'S POV~“Do not believe in werewolves. It's everywhere; every single billboard around the world, especially in the three cities you mentioned in an episode before, says exactly the same thing.” An interviewer said to The UNKNOWN.“It also seems like the police force of Westerville and Queen Elizabeth are the movement's biggest supporters. And the people's belief in these supernatural beings has gone down drastically.Everyone sees werewolves as just a phase in their lives—a myth soon to be forgotten. The police force of the world is tracking down any group or cult supporting and promoting the existence of werewolves, and their excuse is that they're trying to prevent a riot or a war among the humans. Here are some of the words Queen Elizabeth said at a press conference earlier: ” The interviewer continued, then played a video.“People of Westerville and the rest of the world. This ridiculous belief that werewolves exist is only going to cause us to become divid
CHAPTER 149~3RD PERSON’S POV~Garret, the alpha of the blood-wrath pack, and Noah, the alpha of the dark-hound pack, stood on the roof of a building, preparing to ambush the council member they were assigned. Both took off their shirts, revealing their large muscles and rows of abs. For their ages, they were definitely in good shape.“I can't believe I was made to team up with you,” Noah said, staring down at the roads below the biulding.“There is no need to say it; the feeling is mutual. Let's just get this over with and go our separate ways,” Garret said.“I agree,” Noah replied.They both remained quiet, waiting for the council member to exit the building. Their plan was to follow his carriage until it got to a lonely area where they would eliminate him in secret.“I overheard your conversation with that girl, Gabriella; it seems like you're in a lot of trouble with the head of the council,” Garret said with a blank expression.“I’m trying hard not to think about it right now. It
CHAPTER 150~3RD PERSON’S POV~“Can’t this carriage go any faster? I have somewhere to be right now.” The man inside the coach yelled. He wore a white robe, the uniform of the council members, had long blond hair, and looked to be in his forties. The coach he was with suddenly hit a large bump and stopped moving. He clenched his teeth in annoyance and pushed the door of the carriage open.“I was supposed to be at the next venue five minutes ago. What’s the hold-up?” he yelled as he got down from the carriage. He walked over to the person driving and found him hanging by Alpha Noah’s hand. Alpha Noah had his right arm all the way through his chest, staring at him as he bled to death.The council member’s eyes widened in shock, and he stepped back in fear. Alpha Noah turned to him, and his eyes glowed bright red.“You guys can come out. He doesn’t look like any demon I’ve read about,” Noah said with a blank expression on his face, turning to a dark part of the street. Alpha Garret and t
CHAPTER 151~3RD PERSON'S POV~Gabriella walked silently through the passages toward her room. Other maids, who were working late, walked by, murmuring and chatting among themselves.Gabriella stared at the ground, lost in deep thought. As she raised her head, she saw Lilith coming out of her room with her bag. Gabriella rushed to her and asked.“Hey, Lilith, what's going on?” “Oh, Gabriella. I was just getting ready to leave,” Lilith replied.“Leave? To where?” Gabriella asked with a confused expression.“Well, I don't think I can stay in this mansion anymore. I think I need to go find something else to do with my life. Staying in this mansion, I drew further and further away from the one person who truly cared about me, and i became something I never thought I'd become.So... maybe, just maybe I can find myself again out there,” Lilith replied.“Oh, but where will you stay? How will you move around without a vehicle?” Gabriella asked.“Yeah, I spoke to Alpha Steven about that a few
CHAPTER 152~3RD PERSON’S POV~Gregory was pushed back by a large blow, placed on him by the abyss demon he and Eugene were fighting. He clenched his teeth tightly as he growled.Eugene rushed past him toward the large demon. He traded rapid blows with the monster, and as their fists clashed, dust rose from the ground into the air.The monster's tail suddenly morphed into a large morning star, and it swung it at Eugene's head. Eugene noticed the tail coming at him and quickly used his hand to block the attack.The spikes from the morning star pierced his arm, and sent him flying into a wall to the left of the street.“This thing... this thing is unbeatable. All the other warrior wolves we brought are dead; Alpha Derren is nowhere to be found. We're doomed,” Gregory thought to himself.“Gregory!” Eugene called. Gregory turned in the direction he flew and saw Eugene rise up from the rubble of the wall he clashed with. His arm was bleeding profusely from the injuries given to him by the
CHAPTER 153~3RD PERSON'S POV~“It's a beautiful day here in Mystic Meadow. The entire world has been shaken by what we know now. Everyone around the world is going crazy and calling out THE UNKNOWN for some clear explanation as to what transpired during his meeting with Lady Anaya,” a reporter said, standing amid a croud that held up billboards with the picture of a blank face.The crowd chanted repeatedly, angrily calling THE UNKNOWN a monster. The reporter walked to one of the protesters."Could you please tell us why you're out here today?” The reporter asked.“Well, what we're here to do is support Lady Anaya and show her that she is not alone in the fight against this THE UNKNOWN person. He has caused nothing but panic and unrest in society, and it's about time we pushed him out of this city and our lives for good,” the female protester replied.“What are your thoughts on the recently leaked video of Lady Anaya's meeting with THE UNKNOWN?” The reporter asked.“Well, personally,
CHAPTER 154~3RD PERSON'S POV~“My lord, every abyss demon currently in this realm has been eliminated. Peace has returned to the three cities, and the person named THE UNKNOWN has disappeared, or at least he hasn't made any effort to counter what Lady Anaya did,” Gregory said with a smile.“Great, we can remain calm now until the dark moon goddess decides to snap her fingers on all of us,” Steven replied.Gregory just stared at Steven quietly as his smile vanished. He let out a sigh, then said, “That’s my report for the day, permission to take my leave.” “Huh, why are you in such a hurry? Do you have somewhere you need to be?” Steven asked.Gregory’s heart started to race, and his face turned red. “Well… umm… I have a certain appointment with... Christine,” he said nervously, sweat rolling down the side of his head.“Oh, a certain appointment. I forbid it, you are not excused. Take a seat and help me through the night,” Steven said, locking his fingers and closing his eyes.“But, my
CHAPTER 155~3RD PERSON’S POV~“This world Eva created. The endless cycle of life and death that these mortals constantly have to live through. It's disgusting, yet so beautiful. As much as I hate to admit it, it's quite a work of art. How these people continue to live and continue to struggle—how they keep on smiling and laughing, even after knowing that it's all going to end one day.Many of them know they won't be remembered; many of them know this money they make and this food they eat—this life they live will all mean nothing once they die, but even the thought doesn't stop them from living happy, fulfilled lives.Eva poured her heart and soul into this amazing work of art; that's why I couldn't replicate it; that's why I have to destroy it,” Clarabelle (Lilith) thought to herself as she watched humans from the top of a tall building, walk around in the city of Westerville, going about their daily businesses. She wore a dark blue dress, and the strands of her black hair flowed i
CHAPTER 310~GABRIELLA'S POV~Just as Clarabelle warned, the entire world forgot that there was such a thing as the alpha-J drug, and every trace of it vanished from the face of the earth after she reversed the fate of everyone who consumed it and became an artificial. Things went back to normal so quickly that it almost seemed like nothing happened at all—like all the struggles my friends were put through by Episteme, Evelyn, and Agnes were just a dream. People forgot that a company like Higher Wellness Pharmaceuticals existed and that Governor Gerald was a criminal.Newspapers and written reports about the matter disappeared without a trace. Because of this, Steven’s company was unaffected by Evelyn’s actions, and the criminals involved were convicted secretly by the council. Questions were asked about Governor Gerald’s and Queen Elizabeth's disappearances, but people soon got distracted by other things and lost interest in the matter. Steven offered to hand over the position of h
CHAPTER 309~3RD PERSON’S POV~Maria and Clarabelle stood in front of the gates of the Dragnon mansion with umbrellas above their heads and worry on their faces. They had been waiting for Marie and the others to return for hours, but there was no sign of them returning at all.Clarabelle did well to protect everyone from the intense heat, and now that the sun had moved away from the earth, she was sure that Marie and her friends had won the battle. In fact, as the Immortal of Fate, she already knew they would win, and she already knew who would bring that victory, but she wasn't allowed to say a word to anyone. What she wasn't sure of was if they had survived or not, because she refused to look that far into the future.“Do you think they'll return safely?” Maria asked with worry in her voice. She has lost her husband before and was very afraid of losing him again.Clarabelle turned to her and saw the worry in her eyes, then turned away. “Let’s just be hopeful,” she said softly. A f
CHAPTER 308~3RD PERSON'S POV~~Earlier~“Huh?” Gabriella blinked repeatedly in confusion as she stared into Lunaris's eyes. They both sat in a pool of water in the black, empty void that was Gabriella's mind. “What’s going on? I thought I died already,” Gabriella asked softly.“You did—well, not exactly. I put you to sleep for over four months to get some things done in your world. Now that my plot is complete, I'd like you to return and continue living the life you've always wanted,” Lunaris said with a smile.“Oh, you mean I didn't have to die for you to take my body?” Gabriella asked.“Yes, Gabriella. If everyone knew that you were still alive, they would not have grown as much as they have now... especially Marie. I had to make everyone believe that your death was necessary for me to come to this world, so that the plot I couldn't finish years ago would finally be completed,” Lunaris responded.“Oh, I can't believe it's been four months already. How's Marie and the others doing?
CHAPTER 307~3RD PERSON’S POV~Marie and her sisters, Cortana and Yuna, sat inside a large metal dome created by Angela. Angla had created multiple domes like this to accommodate the entire army of Vedantya, and this was because the temperature of the atmosphere has risen to an unbearable level. Daniella used her manipulation of heat to cool down the domes so the occupants wouldn't die of heat stroke.The air around the domes looked like it had been stained with gasoline fumes, and rocks around them had begun melting.Valerie tried again and again to open a portal but failed every single time. The spell that blocked her ability to use spatial magic wasn't very powerful but was somehow too complex for her to undo. It was like the spell reformed itself at light speed every time she broke it, and there was no way of stopping it.“This is bad. If we stay here longer than this, the whole world is going to melt down,” Angela said with worry on her face.“No, we can't give up yet; I'm sure I
CHAPTER 306~3RD PERSON’S POV~“What have you done to me?!!” Agnes yelled with a gory voice.“I poisoned you, Agnes. Ordinarily, poison wouldn't be enough to kill a witch like you, but depending on how powerful the poison is, it would be enough to weaken you. The souls of the fallen Immortals despise you, Agnes. But as much as they want to escape, as souls, they're not nearly strong enough to go against the spell you put on them. It's just like Sabbath and Mary; without Mary's body, Sabbath can't use his power. So, without Agnes's body, the immortals are weak to her spells. But spells require serious mental concentration and physical reinforcement to hold together, and once those two things weaken, the spell comes apart and the souls of the Immortals have their chance to escape.” Agnes gripped her stomach tightly as she felt an agonizing pain coming up. She bled from her nose and mouth as the souls of all the Immortals began seeping out of her body and flying off. “After the Immor
CHAPTER 305~3RD PERSON'S POV~~years ago~“You idiot, don’t go playing with sharp objects if you’re going to lose your mind like that; you know how dangerous that power of yours is,” Agnes queried.“I’m so sorry, I was only trying to get over my fear of blood; it’s really hard,” Mary replied nervously, stroking the back of her head slowly.“Don’t do that anymore. You’ll end up hurting everyone around you,” Agnes said. “But I’ll have you to slap me back to my senses before that happens, right?” Mary said.Agnes smiled. “Yeah, but next time I’ll make sure to slap you even harder so you get knocked out before coming back to your senses.” Both she and Mary laughed together, and the four teachers just stared at them with confused expressions on their faces.~•••~“I lied to you the other day, Mary. I’m not friends with you because you’re a good person or make life interesting for me. I mean, you do, but that’s not the reason.”“Then what is?” Mary asked.“It’s because I feel very ashamed
CHAPTER 304~3RD PERSON’S POV~Mary was accompanied into the building by a group of four people. Two of them were maids, and the other two were Agnes’s soldiers. All four of them still had that eerie smile on their faces, and their eyes still glowed bright red, making them look like their minds were being controlled. They walked into the glass building and led Mary to a magical elevator that didn’t require electricity to work. Mary had her guard up, prepared to launch an attack at anyone who tried to annoy her. At this moment, she was already very pissed off, and anyone who tried to attack her now would be walking into their grave.The elevator door closed and started to rise up the building. Everyone was unusually quiet, and none of Mary’s escorts wanted to make eye contact with her. Mary watched them through the glass wall in front of her—they looked like dolls, stiff and lifeless, like they had been programmed to only move when they were given orders.The elevator rose for over tw
CHAPTER 303~3RD PERSON’S POV~The team of eight continued to fight against the Asuras, cutting through and destroying their forces with as much speed, strength, and precision as they could. They all fought with rage in their hearts, determined to end the battle as quickly as possible, but the Asuras were just too many. It didn't matter what the team did or what amount of power they used; the Asuras just kept coming like an endless sea of stars.The Asuras armor-like skin had become so strong that Edith's blade and Anima Morning Star both broke on impact. The two Immortals had to summon their weapons again and again during the fight just to avoid getting killed. They had to look for a new way to kill these Immortals, and that way was to attack them at points where their armour didn't cover—the gaps in the skin that revealed their glowing orange flesh. Targeting these parts was especially difficult for the werewolves because they didn't have long-range weapons, and getting too close t
CHAPTER 302~3RD PERSON'S POV~Nicole and Melody moved swiftly through the forest, toward the area where the forcefield was located. Nicole hovered using a glowing, orange, magical disc, and Melody just flew around, dodging the trees and large rocks in the way. They both had already seen the helicopter fly off, so they knew Mary was already going against her parents. Their only problem was getting to the forcefield, as the distance it was from where they opened their portal was too much. “Hey, couldn't you just use spacial magic to take us there? It's starting to look like this forest is playing tricks on us,” Melody asked, turning to Nicole.Nicole looked around, her eyes scanning past each tree, shrub, and rock. “I can't use spacial magic or any other kind of magic. Something is blocking me from doing it. This is bad; it means we can't teleport home unless we can find a place where I will be able to use spatial magic,” she responded. “But you're right,” she continued, then stopped
