Chapter 78: Enid determination



Luke, within seconds, arrived at Enid’s side. He landed and walked over to her.

“Are you okay?” asked Luke, examining Enid. He noticed that in her ears there was a trace of blood. For some unknown reason to him, there was also blood on her palms.

“I’m fine. From a distance, the damage wasn’t much,” replied Enid with a smile, hiding her hands behind her back.

“You’re bleeding,” Luke said, moving closer to her. From one of his pockets, he pulled out a handkerchief and started wiping the blood in Enid’s ears.

‘Damn monster. I’ll hit him harder next time,’ thought Luke as he cleaned Enid.

“Thanks,” murmured Enid, seeing Luke’s face, which was close to her. Before she could do anything stupid, the others came over.

“What happened here, Xavier?” asked Bianca in a historical tone. She saw the place destroyed, a horrible monster, and Rowan lying on the ground, unconscious and with a big wound.

“Shouldn’t you ask me if I’m okay?” asked Xavier with a frown. His ears also had blood in them, as did Enid’s, but it was nothing serious.

“That’s what I asked,” said Bianca, raising her tone of voice.

“You asked what happened here. Not if I’m okay,” said Xavier, also raising his voice.

“Did I hurt your feelings? I thought I was the girl in this relationship,” Bianca said with irritation.

‘They keep fighting…’ thought Luke, rolling his eyes.

“Stop fighting! Rowan was attacked by that beast. He’s losing a lot of blood. He’s still alive,” said Yoko, bending down and taking Rowan’s pulse, who was pale and unconscious.

“We must get him to the hospital right away,” said Kent.

“We won’t make it. His wound is serious,” said Bianca, putting aside her fight with Xavier. “He’s trying to murder Wednesday. I guess it’s karma,” commented Xavier, shaking his head. “What?” they all asked, surprised and uncomprehending. Xavier told them everything he saw, in a nutshell. How Rowan said in his own words that he wanted to assassinate Wednesday and that he had tried before. He didn’t tell about the prophecy or why Rowan wanted to assassinate Wednesday specifically.

As that prophecy involved his friend, he decided to hide it so as not to give Luke trouble.

Wednesday, who was standing silently, watched the dying Rowan. She was weighing on a scale whether to murder him or not. Since he wanted her murdered, it was her right to end the grudge.

“What will you do?” asked Luke, and everyone looked at Wednesday.

“Finishing off dying people is no fun at all. I’ll let him live if he makes it through tonight,” Wednesday replied in a monotone.

‘Fun?’ thought everyone except Luke.

“You can fly, can’t you, Luke?” asked Yoko, looking at Luke, who was standing with his arms crossed, looking at Rowan’s pale face. They all looked at Luke with incredulous faces.

The ability to fly in a telekinetic was advanced. Older yellow-aura psychics have that ability. For a classmate of his age to be able to fly at that speed was an incredible feat to witness.

‘If he can dig up roots with his telekinesis without seeing them, it makes sense that he can control his own body to fly,’ thought Wednesday. Though she was still amazed at Luke’s talent for being able to sense objects and his own body without seeing them.

‘It’s either that or…’ thought Wednesday, narrowing her eyes as she looked at Luke.

“Yes, I can,” Luke replied. They had already seen it, and it wasn’t something he wanted to hide either.

“If you fly Rowan to the hospital, he can be saved… Will you do it?” asked Yoko with a strange expression. If he saves them from Hyde, he’ll try to save Rowan too, right?

“Please, Luke,” Enid said in a low tone, grabbing Luke’s sleeve with her hand. She didn’t want to see another classmate die. Even if Rowan attempted murder on a Wednesday, she no longer cared if he lived or died. At least they could save him and let the outcast justice take care of Rowan.

“Fine. I’ll do it,” Luke replied without much hesitation. Wednesday already said she didn’t care if Rowan lived or died.

He tried to save Rowan from Hyde so he could take him to the hospital so the idiot in glasses wouldn’t die. This way, he would help Larissa and Nevermore, since it’s not a good thing for a student to die for a monster.

“You’re coming too. You’re hurt,” Luke said, looking at Enid. Rowan started to float up from the ground.

“What? Me?” asked Enid, pointing a finger at herself.

“Yes. Sure, if you want,” said Luke, scratching his cheek.

“E-eh? Yes, of course I want to! I’m hurt. My ears hurt, and I have some cuts on my palms,” said Enid, showing off her wounds for some reason.

“Fine… Climb on my back,” said Luke, turning his back to Enid, who smiled and climbed on Luke, interlocking her arms and gripping him tightly.

With Enid on his back and Rowan hovering nearby, he took off at a moderate pace so as not to scare Enid.

“I hope you’re not afraid of heights,” commented Luke, flying higher and higher.

“If it’s with you, I’m not afraid of anything,” murmured Enid to herself, sinking her head into Luke’s neck.

“What did you say?” asked Luke, who didn’t hear because of Enid’s low tone and the wind in his face.

“Nothing,” said Enid with a slight smile.

The night was clear and beautiful. The half-moon lit the road, and a gentle breeze hit Luke’s face as he made his way to the hospital. It would have been a more romantic scene if they didn’t have a dying man flying beside them.

“What a cute couple,” Kent said, watching as Luke and Enid drifted farther and farther apart

in the sky.

“Ex-couple,” Divina corrected.

‘Ex-couple?’ thought Wednesday with a raised eyebrow. She’s Enid’s roommate, an enthusiastic person who always dresses in bright colors. The last thing she would think was that Enid was Luke’s girlfriend.

From what she knew of Luke, he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would put up with such an enthusiastic and happy person.

“They should get back together. They’re cute together,” Kent said, and Yoko nudged him as she slyly pointed her head at Gia, who was looking skyward.

…

Luke was waiting in one of the seats at Jericho General Hospital for Enid. As for Rowan, it looked like he might be saved. He was being treated in the emergency room, and Principal Weems had already been called. It would only be a matter of time before she got here, asking

what the hell happened.

Just then, out of one of the doors came Enid. In her hands, she was wearing bandages, and her

ears no longer had traces of blood in them.

“Are you feeling better?” asked Luke, getting up from his seat.

“Yes. They were only minor injuries. Don’t worry,” said Enid without her usual enthusiasm.

“What’s wrong? Why the sad face?” asked Luke.

“I was useless again, and you had to protect me,” said Enid in a depressed tone, looking at the

floor.

‘Is she sad about that?’ thought Luke. Seeing Enid’s sad face, he was about to tell her that it didn’t matter. He would protect her as many times as necessary, but he stopped himself. That was the reason he had ended his relationship with her. He was afraid that she would be attacked because of him, and he would not be able to protect her. The words Enid’s mother said to him made him think that. If it were up to him, he would never have ended it with Enid.

After all, he had fallen in love with Enid. Yes, he had fallen in love. He wasn’t in love with Enid at first, but eventually, it ended up that way. Even he didn’t realize that until he thought about it carefully.

In the other girls he was with, he was just looking for a replacement for Enid, but none of

them succeeded.

It was strange that he ended up falling in love with a girl so different from him, but it gave a different color to his life.

“I am far inferior compared to Wednesday,” said Enid, clenching her fists tightly. She had seen how her roommate fought, and she was strong. Luke kept silent. If he spoke, all the effort he made to keep Enid away from him would be in vain.

“That won’t stay that way, though! Luke!” said Enid, suddenly regaining her energy.

“Yes?” asked Luke, surprised by Enid’s sudden energy.

“I’ll get stronger! Strong enough not to be a burden and fight by your side,” said Enid

decisively.

‘Fight by my side?’ thought Luke. He knew Enid should be aware of the conflict between the

Spellmans and the Poe. Her werewolf family was one of the oldest. Though she must not think the prestigious Spellman family had demonic dealings.

So, saying that is leaving between the lines that she will fight alongside him against the Spellmans regardless of the power of this family or the opinion of her parents.

“If I can be strong enough, you must promise me one thing,” Enid added, looking Luke in the

eye.

“What thing…?” asked Luke, sensing that this conversation was going down a path he

couldn’t control.

“You’ll tell me the truth about why you left me, and if I believe it’s because of what I think.

You’ll come back to me!” said Enid, raising her voice on the last sentence.

“So? Answer me,” said Enid, moving closer to Luke to press him.

‘She sure is pushy when she wants to be,’ thought Luke, noting the determined look on Enid’s

face.

“Fine. I’ll do it, but we need to clear up a few things,” said Luke, sighing internally. “What things?” asked Enid with a smile. Already, Luke had agreed. Now she just had to train

like crazy.

“I’ll consider you strong enough if you can defeat that Hyde all by yourself,” replied Luke,

and the smile on Enid’s face disappeared.

“Isn’t that too much…?” asked Enid doubtfully.

“Where did your confidence go? You’re a werewolf, you should be able to defeat that Hyde if

you try hard enough,” said Luke with a slight smile.

In the series, Enid put up a fight against Hyde but was defeated. She was able to beat him

thanks to the intervention of the Sheriff who shot Hyde. However, in this world, Luke can confirm that Hyde is much more powerful.

Still, Enid should be able to defeat him with enough training. Her lineage is pure and among the oldest of werewolves. If she is disciplined, it is an achievable goal.

“I’ll do it! I’ll crush that ugly monster!” said Enid, who was annoyed by Luke’s provocation.

“That’s the attitude,” said Luke.

Just then, a tall woman with almost white blonde hair walked through the front door of the

hospital.

“Luke, what happened!?” asked Larissa, who had sweat on her face. She had heard that one of

her students was in the hospital in an emergency.
