CHAPTER 289~3RD PERSON’S POV~Valerie clenched her teeth tightly as she struggled to pull on a large lever hanging on a wall in the room where the two hundred platforms slowly slid toward their dooms. Even with her werewolf strength, her efforts were to no avail, as the lever was built to resist even the strongest werewolves. Angela, on the other hand, tried multiple codes on another device sitting on a tall podium at the entrance to the room. She used her werewolf speed to try multiple codes in only a few seconds. But even with her speed, she had only tried 300 different combinations out of over eleven billion. Meanwhile, Marie used her speed to release the people one by one from the platforms they lay on. The cuffs that were used to tie their hands and feet to the platform were made of thick, heavy metal, so they were difficult to pull apart. She tried as hard as she could, but she was still too slow. There were two hundred people to rescue, but she has only been able to release
CHAPTER 290~3RD PERSON'S POV~“They had 200 other werewolves in the facility? How long have they been planning this whole thing?” Nicole asked with surprise on her face.Marie and her sisters had returned to the Dragnon mansion with Maria, Steven, and Derren and were now in a medium-sized room in the building with Nicole, Melody, Clarabelle, and Edith Anima. Steven, Derren, and Maria were still unconscious and lay on three different beds with white sheets and wooden frames. “I don't know; I'm just glad we were able to get everyone out on time. Now that we have Professor Joseph in our custody as well as Evelyn, we can force them to tell us where Firgatten is and confess to the public that the drug is dangerous and unstable. That should stop everyone from taking the drug if they haven't already taken the complete dosage required for transformation and addiction,” Marie replied, letting out a sigh of relief.“Where did you move all 200 werewolves to?” Clarabelle asked.“We contacted Co
CHAPTER 291~3RD PERSON’S POV~“So, there was a global blackout all of a sudden, but I'm sure it'll be resolved soon,” Kathrin said, walking back into the interrogation room. She walked back to her seat, pulled it out, and sat down.“You really think this'll be resolved soon? Don't you see that this is also a part of the grand scheme. This black out is to make sure no one knows about the shit down of Higher Wellness Pharmaceuticals. It’s to make sure everyone continues to trust the drug for the next two hours. This is the reason why higher wellness pharmaceuticals has only one branch, so that the news of its shut down doesn't reach the people on time,” Joseph said, staring into Kathrin's eyes.“Okay, So, what exactly caused this black out? Magic? An explosion? Something else?” Kathrin asked, she still maintained her calm demeanour so she could get as much information from Joseph as she could. Her facial expression was unchanged and her fingers were locked together in an interlace.“N
CHAPTER 292~3RD PERSON'S POV~Evelyn sat quietly on her bed in her prison cell. Her eyes closed, and her legs folded. She drew in slow breaths, and the sounds and murmuring of the other female detainees in other cells came into her ears from random directions. As a werewolf, she could hear everything around her, from the slightest clink from the metal bars to the cheering of the prisoners.She hadn't been convicted of any crime yet, but the fact that there were so many detainees around her made her feel like she had already been sentenced. “Hey, what's your name, pretty lady?” One of the larger females in the same cell with her asked, gently moving a thin, dangling lock of Evelyn's hair to the side.Evelyn remained silent; she had fallen so deeply into her thoughts that nothing in the outside world could disturb her.“Hey!! I'm talking to you!” The woman yelled.Evelyn opened her eyes slowly and asked, “What do you want?” “I asked you what your name is.” The woman spoke, her brows
CHAPTER 293~3RD PERSON'S POV~The taxi Daniela was in finally arrived at the Dragnon mansion after a long ride. The car was parked in front of the gate, where Edith Anima and Edith Mortem stood with smiles on their faces. They both wore the exact same uniform and stood together with their hands behind their backs.The door at the passenger seat opened up, and Daniella got out. Daniella walked to the trunk of the car and pulled out her luggage. She pulled the luggage across the stone floor toward the gate, her shoes clicking with every step she took. She wore dark brown sunglasses and a soft smile on her face as she spotted Edith from a distance.She got closer to the gate, and her smile vanished as she saw that there were actually two different Ediths. She stopped in front of the two of them, pulled off her glasses to make sure they weren't what was distorting her vision, and got even more confused when she saw that the Edith she knew before wasn't even there at all.The Edith she kn
CHAPTER 294~3RD PERSON’S POV~The taxi that brought Daniella to the Dragnon mansion was parked along an empty street late at night. The street was empty because the rain had worsened over a few hours, and only a few vehicles could be seen driving by. Loud grumbles of pain could be heard from inside the car as it rocked slightly from side to side. The driver of the car banged his head against the staring wheel repeatedly until he began bleeding. He clenched his teeth tightly and tightened his grip on the wheel as his groans grew louder and more horrific.His eyes turned bright blue, his teeth grew sharper than before, and long fibers of hair grew out of his face and arms. His body slowly grew larger, ripping his shirt and trousers. His mouth and nose elongated into a wolf's, and his finger nails grew into sharp claws.As soon as his transformation was complete, he roared loudly, broke out of the car, and ran off into the night. ****Steven stood in front of his demolished building,
CHAPTER 295~3RD PERSON'S POV~Nicole walked through the passages in the Dragnon mansion, making different turns and taking different routes. After living here for almost a week, she had already created a mental map of the entire building and could easily find her way around it. She wore a light gray cloak, carried a neutral expression on her face, and carried a tray with a bowl of soup sitting on it. She was heading to Ezikiel's room to finish his treatment before taking him back to the room Herculia was locked in.She walked for a few minutes and finally stopped in front of a white door. She placed her right palm on the door’s handle and clicked it open, then walked into the room. She shut the door gently to avoid waking Ezekiel up, then turned around. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw that the room was a complete mess. Tables and seats in the room had been turned over and were out of place, and cupboards in the room had fallen to the ground. Ezikiel, who was supposed to be a
CHAPTER 296~3RD PERSON’S POV~A bright yellow portal opened up at the top of a cliff. Behind the portal and further was nothing but a dense forest filled with all sorts of wildlife. Different sounds from different animals and river channels came out of the forest and along the large mountain range in front of the cliff, spreading out into the air like it was nature's way of saying good morning to the world.The mountain range was a very large circle created by gigantic rock formations that had forged themselves over time. The mountain range was divided into two parts, with one part being covered with a forest and the other looking completely dry and barren. The mountain range was surrounded by a vast ocean, which made it almost inaccessible to people.The glowing portal spiraled for a few seconds, and Nicole stepped out. After her, Melody followed.“Wow, so this is where Firgatten is located? It's beautiful,” Melody asked, walking toward the edge of the cliff.“I know, right? I was h
