CASEYI jolted awake, and the blanket slipped off my body. I'm in the room. I tried to sit even with an excruciating headache.“Was it all just a dream? What is wrong with me? It feels like yesterday wasn't a dream. I really followed Gin and–”Knock. Knock. Knock. There was a soft knock on the door.While enduring excruciating pain in my head, I got out of bed and opened the door. At that time, I didn't even think about anything at all."Well? Who?"As soon as I opened the door, I saw Eren standing carrying milk and bread. He was already wearing a school uniform and grinning at me.“You woke up late? You didn't come down for breakfast this morning. I brought milk and bread for you. By the way, Casey, you're so beautiful when you first wake up.”I quickly looked back and looked for a mirror. My body image was reflected in the full-length mirror. Good grief. My hair is messy, and even the lines on my face remain from the pillow marks. I was very embarrassed and immediately straightened
ENSIO"Strange!" I muttered to Brigitta. We've been meeting more often in secret lately outside of Davies Werner's knowledge."What do you mean, Ensio?""The fishy smell of blood mixed with the smell of wolves. Who exactly is that boy?""Is it true? Really, I don't understand who you are talking about." Brigitta again busied herself, grilling meat on the grill before us."Tell me the truth, Bri. Why is Davies throwing this dance party? What is his real goal? Isn't holding a dance party amidst the current unresolved conflict dangerous?"Brigitta even took a deep breath. She put down the meat tongs and looked at me."In the world of werewolves, there are also their own rules. I can't interfere with their decisions, but we need to supervise it since it involves children this time. That will be your duty, Ensio."I couldn't help but frown."Well, I'm sure inside Terrasen Academy, there are intruders we don't know about. I think that's one of the reasons Davies threw this dance party. He w
GINWhen Brigitta asked where Casey was, my mind immediately went to the suspicious man standing by the cherry tree that afternoon.I ran out of the house through the raging snowstorm. Sure enough, in front of our house, a man in medieval clothing stood with a staff in his hand. He grinned and greeted me. Meanwhile, Casey is in his custody."You noticed me before your hunter parents?"I opened my eyes. I was really scared and mixed with anger. "What are you going to do to Casey? Let go of my sister!""Silver Hunter, the existence of you and this little girl is a curse!""What do you mean?" I shouted loudly against the roar of the snowstorm that was getting stronger."Gin! Casey!" Brigitta called to us from a distance.And I realized that Brigitta was standing behind me. She immediately took out her hunting rifle.The man turned into a big and scary wolf. He carried the unconscious Casey on his back. He tries to escape with Casey.“De Comte!” shouted Brigitta. "Why would a Lycan King l
ENSIOBang!I kicked in Isaac Knox's door."Gin?" I stood with my hunting pistol in hand. When I realized Isaac Knox was there, I was shocked. "Isaac Knox?" My eyes narrowed.Isaac had already removed the sword from Gin. He looked at me without hesitation. "Hi, sir?"Gin fell down in pain. His arm was bleeding quite a lot."Gin?" I approached to check his condition."Interesting family drama!" Isaac sneered as he pointed his sword at my neck.I was surprised and glanced at the sharp blade of Isaac's sword over my shoulder. But I ignored him and carried Gin on my shoulder."Stop it, Isaac. I know you're a good person. Everything you're doing right now is just emotional." Gin said while enduring the pain. "You can still suppress De Comte's appearance and now talk to us. That means you can get rid of him from within you if you want.""Raise your weapons!" Isaac ordered."Whatever you think, you are still my student, Isaac Knox! "I have no obligation to fight you," I said softly.Isaac re
CASEY "If you want to save Gin, let's make a deal!" The words spoken by Isaac in the garden were frankly in my head. "You can either give yourself to me or bring me Raff Werner's corpse. If you become my slave, I won't kill you, and I won't bother Gin anymore." I looked at the reflection of my face in the mirror. I'm really very tired right now. A decision must be made immediately. I gently patted my cheeks. I've changed clothes. I wore a special uniform as a security guard during the dance party. I had to get rid of the dress that Davies had given me. Several friends and I, appointed by the principal, must secure the dance party tonight. "Casey, you ready? And gosh, what clothes are you wearing? Why are you wearing a uniform instead of the dress Papa bought?" I was very nervous and turned towards the door. I was sure I had locked the door from the inside, but suddenly, Raff was standing near my bed. "Why are you looking at me like that? I knocked on the door, and you didn't an
CASEYI thought it would be really fun, but it turned out to be a really boring party. Inside the party room, the atmosphere was very lively. The Terrasen Academy students and girls paired off with each other. They danced, ate, and chatted freely. Everyone looks familiar and warm.But my mind is still wondering, what is the purpose of holding a dance party this winter? Even though they pretend to want to celebrate the New Year, it doesn't feel like that.Several teachers and school officials were having fun. Even the students, who usually form gangs with their packs, now blend in. Harmony.That night was a beauty and pleasure for them, but not for me. I secretly slipped away and looked for Gin."What is up? Aren't you interested in dance parties?" Gin quipped."Of course!" I answered curtly. "It was Raff who forced me to come."We stood side by side in silence outside the party hall. I grabbed Gin's shoulder and turned his face towards me. I pulled Gin's tie and fixed it, which was sl
GINI stood near the window inside the second-floor room. I saw everything. I looked at Raff, who was hugging Casey very possessively. Suddenly, my eyes watered. My hands tucked in my jacket pockets clenched into fists very tightly."Gin!" A student from the final year approached me. I was shocked and unclenched my fist."Can I dance with you?""How dare that girl?" Commented by one of the students who happened to see us. "Does she not know who the cold-faced Master is?"I glanced at those who commented, then looked down with an annoyed grin."Didn't you hear what they said? Do you know who I am? Would you be disappointed if I refused your request?"The girl in front of me was even confused. "What do you mean, Gin? Who are you anyway?"I showed her the armband I wore that night on the sleeve of my uniform. "Sorry, I can't dance because I have to be on guard tonight."I resisted as best as I could."Oh," the girl looked down. "Good rejection," she said.Suddenly, she looked up and smil
CASEY"De Comte!" Gin growled.I don't know what moved my body. I stood up and protected De Comte, who seemed to be doing nothing. "Stop it, Gin!""Casey, do you know what you're doing? Get out of there quickly! He is a dangerous Lycan King.""I won't! Because only he can give me the answer!" I'm still stubborn. I want to know the secret that was hidden from me. That's more important to me than anything right now."Answer?" Gin looked disappointed. He was still pointing the gun at us. "You must have been fooled by his words and seduction, Casey."I could only look down with a pair of dark eyes. "No, Gin. You are wrong. For a long time, I have felt strange after strange things have happened to me. I know you're hiding something from me. Not just you but everyone around me.""What do you mean, Casey?" Gin hissed, even more annoyed."You guys are trying to hide a big secret from me. You two will never talk, right? If I was willing to do what this man wanted, he promised to tell me everyt
GINI stood on the roof of the tallest building in the center of Terrasen City. A hunting sword was slung across my back. I saw a dead landscape below me. No one was active there. No life. After an incident between the werewolf council and the hunters association erupted at Terrasen Academy, the city was abandoned by all its citizens.Two limousines passed by at medium speed. Each limousine has a Werner family emblem on the muzzle.My body and face were hit by the cold wind. My spine still hurts where my wings slashed. Now, I'm just half a demon without wings. I don't have a place, but I have a purpose. I am a hunter!I let my silver hair ripple in the wind. "Goodbye, Casey! Even though I'm only a half-demon without wings, I will be stronger when we meet again. I'll hunt down the Werner family and get you back!"I don't know why I suddenly became so careless. I didn't realize that someone was behind me. When I was about to draw my sword and turn around, another person was beside me."
EREN"It's about time, isn't it?" I turned to Malik, who looked still and silent, leaning against the window frame of my room.I just finished packing clothes and personal items that are very important, and I can't leave them behind. The omegas carried some of my travel bags and suitcases into the yard. There was a car carrying goods waiting there."I didn't think it would end like this," Malik said quietly."Why? Are you disappointed with the final result? I don't think it's over until Casey makes a decision.""It is over!" Malik answered firmly. "I've made a decision, and this time, Papa allows it."Malik turned to me with a forced smile. "I... I won't go with you to a new place. I will continue my musical activities and travel around the world. I feel like I can write heartbreak songs for the girls out there—my fans! You know, right? That's what I've always wanted from the beginning?"I was surprised to hear that. So that's why Malik hasn't looked enthusiastic since yesterday? I kn
MALIKEren and I went to the council. We stood in the courtyard of the council building with complete confidence. Several guards blocked our way."Going against the council and coming here to make a scene?" said the guard. "It seems like you don't care about your life.""Tell me where our Dad is?" Eren shouted."Davies Werner is under arrest! He must serve his sentence.""You betrayed him, didn't you? Shouldn't the werewolves be subject to Davies Werner's policies?" I growled."Shut up!" the guard replied. "This was the Werner family's fault from the start! You have created unreasonable rules between the werewolf race and other races!""Tch, in front of us, you said you agreed. Behind our backs, you betrayed!" Eren scoffed angrily."Who is the traitor here?" quipped the guard. "You have created a mixed race between demons and werewolves. You are also the one who killed many pure-blood werewolves. As a result of this sin, Davies and Raff Werner were sentenced to sleep forever!""Hah!"
GINMy clothes, being torn and covered in blood, felt very uncomfortable and disturbing. I took off my shirt and only wore trousers. My body changed. I became more muscular, with blue-black veins all over my back and arms that looked snaking.I followed De Comte's scent through the small forest behind the school. My silver earrings sparkled as I turned and was hit by the full moon's light."Werewolves!" I growled.I smelled a lot of werewolf corpses there. I continued walking deeper into the forest. Along the footpath where people usually go for exercise, there were many bodies of werewolves strewn about.I growled. "They are citizens of Terrasen City!"I checked one of the werewolves who was lying down. His chest was torn. His heart was lost and taken by De Comte."Where is he?"On the outside of the forest, I found De Comte pulling out the heart of a female werewolf who looked like she had just come home from work. The condition of the city is very chaotic. No residents were passing
GINI tried to free Casey. I channeled my demonic energy into the blade of my hunter's sword. I ran and broke De Comte's magic snare that was wrapped around Casey's body when De Comte was caught off guard by the wound on his chest. When the magic snare broke, Casey fell to the floor unbalanced.I stood up, panting. My body felt very hot and wanted to explode. My pale skin began to grow black veins that intertwined like roots. My horns are also getting more significant."Gin?" Casey tried to take two steps closer but stopped as soon as I looked at her with bright red eyes."Gin...," Casey stubbornly said."Danger!" I shouted when I realized De Comte was standing behind Casey again.I was about to slash my sword but suddenly fell. The bones of my shoulders and back stretched and grew more prominent. I groaned in pain with intermittent breathing."What is it?" surprised Malik, who was helping Lusina."His power is uncontrollable," said Eren."Gin," whispered Malik, looking concerned."Th
CASEYI saw that Eren had his own body back. He was assisted by Lusina and Dominic. They stood in front of the Terrasen Academy dormitory building. When Malik and I arrived, they were ready for the hunt we had always practiced with Pack Werner members. As for Raff, he had to go to the city border with Ailyn and her two younger siblings."Casey, Malik," said Eren. "Are you ready?""Where is De Comte?" I asked impatiently.They turned to me."He's in front of us," Eren answered. "Just think of this as a hunting game we always play in the forest when the full moon comes.""Yokai!" Dominic answered excitedly.Lusina brushed her hanging bangs in a distinctive style. "They have ruined my cooking schedule. They have to pay!"We all went together to the outbuilding in the Terrasen dormitory to look for De Comte's lair. As soon as we pushed open the heavy and oversized door, the smell of death rose and was very strong."What is this?"We entered more deeply into the dark and quiet dormitory bu
ISAAC"Isaac, what happened? Why are you hurt?"I smiled at Gin. "Are you still worried about me? From the start I had only one goal, to find my parents' killer! I will do everything I can for that. When my parents were murdered, I didn't see who did it. But, there was Raff Werner. Since then, I've kept finding out about them--the Werner brothers. I'm willing to go to Terrasen Academy.""What happened to you?" Gin asked while enduring the pain in his own body.He probably didn't expect that I was injured when I came there. Gin's grip on my chest made my wound bleed more."I chose to join the werewolf council to find old archives and records. In the hunter association, I didn't find any records. So, the only way is to join the council under Rido's rule. There, I found records of the crimes of the werewolves and all the humans who died by them."Gin growled.A few moments ago, when De Comte had just risen, I drove the sword inherited from my parents into his heart from behind. "De Comte
MALIKEren fell asleep after De Comte's soul left his body. I checked, and he's fine. I moved Eren to a safe place and went to the teacher's dormitory to look for Casey and Raff.Two white wolves were chasing away the other wolves that were coming towards the teacher's dormitory. They are Loyd and Lucas. The two brothers have been with us for a long time. Raff even sent them along with Ailyn to continue tracking Casey's whereabouts until they could finally lead Casey to Pack Werner.With their strong jaws, they tore the bodies of the werewolves who came under someone's orders. Their bodies were covered in blood and gasping for breath."How could they use these werewolves to attack us?""Yeah, let's just say their master is an intelligent person. Wolves for wolves and devils for devils. Meanwhile, Alpha Davies is being troubled by the council," said Loyd - a white wolf with black legs.I was about to join them when I saw Ailyn had just arrived."What are you doing here, Ailyn?" I asked
GINSuddenly, Raff fell to the floor. His body became unsteady. I approached him. Raff's face was ashen, and I saw wounds on his neck and both wrists."What's wrong with you?" I asked in surprise. Who could hurt Raff like this?"Oh, this?" He shows the scar on his wrist. "I just escaped death. The council defected. They locked me up in a special prison. But I managed to escape. That's not what I came to see you for!""What do you want, Raff?""We have been preparing for this moment for a long time. Only a few steps are left, and then all our plans will succeed. That plan... is you! The monster, De Comte, has risen from his coffin."My face became tense instantly."You have to destroy him!" said Raff while trying to stand up straight."I? Just do it yourself! I have nothing to do with all of you, eh.""Are you still going to pretend to close your eyes? Something inside you is starting to rebel."I narrowed my eyes."You were destined to become half devil for a reason. We've been planni
