Chapter 105

Why should I

Apologize for being a monster

Has anyone ever

Apologized for turning me into one

The moon's eyes are hidden behind thick white clouds. A deep blue shade painting the sky in a mournful color. Behind a famous restaurant in an alleyway lay five dead bodies, deep gashes adorn their bodies causing a lot of blood to drain out. In the air is the metallic scent of blood. The slayer had struck again tonight. The killer intent left behind is still heavily saturated in the environment. The common people have their doors shut tight, no one is willing to risk their lives for the innocent victims. They can only send their prayers up above for a safe journey to the netherworld.

On a rooftop a few meters away from the scene is a hooded figure. Her brown eyes glow vibrantly with bloodlust, her originally white face now overcome with blood soaked fur.

"Soon, I won't have to hunt with fear of being seen." With a growl she hops off of the roof, tiles being removed in the process and tumbling down to the ground. A cacophony of broken tiles scare the folks below, some blow out their candles and hide under the covers. What you can not see can not hurt you, right?

The pipe dreams of the common people do not even flicker through the killer's thoughts, why would they? Things meant to satisfy her urges are only objects, there lives are a lowly existence.

---------------------------

The cover of the night now slowly fades away, bringing along with it the light of the sun. It exposes the travesty that occurred in the alleyway. Officials in charge of keeping law and order rush to the scene. Their stomachs flip upon the gruesome sight and some have to fight the urge to vomit their breakfast from the morning.

They begin investigating the scene, trying to find any leads on who the killer may be. However so far, there does not seem to be any leads. Not a trace of evidence has been left behinds. The faces of the officials turn serious, whoever is committing these murders must be a professional.

They know that in the days to come there will be a serious headache. No one will be spared.

Dear Headmaster,

A series of murders have been taking place in alleyways throughout the town recently. My people have not come up with any leads so far and the clues that have come up do not seem to be advantageous for the students in your school. Whoever is doing this is very skilled and I fear for the safety of the students. It would be best to install a curfew and cut down on the amount of time the students are allowed outside the academy’’s gates before curfew.

We do not want anything unfortunate to occur that could damage the reputation of this community. My people will work hard to crack this case, but if you so dėsɨrė you can send us some ȧssistance.

Regards,

Xian Jin

“Hey Melia! Do you know what’s going on? Why did the school call for an emergency ȧssembly?” Ora called out to me.

Sebastian isn’t with me at this time, it is school protocol. He’s probably somewhere around hanging with the big shots of the school.

Everyone is crowding the hall trying to get to the area where the ȧssembly is being held. Bodies brush up against one another, people pushing others out of their way, this is the perfect time for someone to get injured.

“It’s all that sŀuts fault! She did this! She tore my skirt! I don’t understand how brother Maximus can protect such a white wolf! She’s uncouth!” Passing by I happen to hear her grumbling words. I have a feeling that this is related to Elizabeth.

Helping Akiko would do me no good. First, she’s too irrational. The last thing anyone would ever want is to have a pig headed teammate. Though she may be the daughter of a concubine, her mother obviously failed in teaching her manners. Akiko has all of the qualities it takes to be a cannon fodder.

I make my way into the auditorium, Ora saved a seat for me up front and adjacent to her. We both sit down as everyone else swarms in like a school of sardines. This place is filled with murmurs. And there’s only one main topic being discussed.

Why did the headmaster call for an emergency shut down?
