Volume 2 Chapter 19
(Unedited)
…
Gary Guiller has already set his plan in motion. He could not wait anymore and wanted to get Wendy subdued. He already experiences doing this thing before. Although he became a friend to Wendy and her group, in actual fact, his goal is to become inconspicuous while doing such a thing in the shadow.
There are already many women who fell in his hands and the last woman was the friend of Wendy. He did the same to her and threatens to expose her to the public if she ever speaks.
And so, with that threat, he enjoys himself on the bed with the young woman and the two of them seem to become entangled deeper and deeper. Gary almost fell for the woman and for a time forgets about his attraction towards Wendy, though he did not stop showing his affection towards her.
But then, that thing happened on the campus and that woman died. When he saw the woman dying so did his attraction towards her. At that time, he just frowns in irritation and thought that it was really a waste.
He could not deny that the woman is really good in bed and that he enjoys being with her. But now that she is dead, his attraction also left, and then as if everything became clear in his mind, he suddenly thought of Wendy.
Now his plan is to grab her and then conquer her first. Then after that…
He didn't know what would happen after that. All he knew is that, he wanted to have her in his hands. And if the time comes that she is not worth it anymore, he would just throw her to the side and move to his next target.
But right at that time that he was about to grab Wendy, he suddenly discovers that something seems to have stopped him, an invisible wall that deflects and stopped him from his plan.
And now that he was exposed, he has to quickly subdue her.
With a sudden rush, Gary suddenly grabs something from the pocket of his jacket. Another handkerchief appears on his hand and with a pouch, he extended his hand to grab Wendy's arm.
As he stretches his hand, he suddenly feels that something struck his feet making him tumble to the ground in a sorry manner.
Gary, suddenly feels an intense pain coming from his left leg. He could not help but squirm while grabbing his leg.
Wendy was a bit shocked, and didn't know what to do and just look at the wriggling young man on the ground while crying in pain.
Suddenly a few students heard him crying and they immediately ran towards the location where Gary is lying.
Blood could be seen on his leg as the people walk closer.
"What happened here?" a student asked.
Those who saw the student immediately knew that he is part of the students who patrol the ground.
"Senior… she… she injured me!" shouted Gary as if feeling wronged.
The eyes of Wendy went wide in disbelief. She did not know that Gary would really do such a thing. And it immediately confirmed her fears. Those visions she saw in his mind are really true.
"Student, what is the meaning of this?" asked the senior student to Wendy.
"I… It… it's not true…" she stammered unable to explain herself.
"You should come with me, right now…" the senior said as he suddenly extended his hand to grab Wendy who is slowly backing away.
But before he could approach Wendy, a handkerchief flew towards the face of that senior.
With his quick reflex, he immediately caught the handkerchief.
He showed a confused expression as he checks the piece of cloth and looks in the direction where it came from. But he saw no one. He wanted to dismiss it but he suddenly took a whiff of a herbal essence on the piece of cloth in his hand.
"This… this is a combination of extract from nightshade and wolf's bane. This… this thing… this has a very potent paralyzing effect…" he muttered.
As a senior in school, he also learned about the effects of the plants that can be found outside of the city. He is aware that such a thing is illegal and is not permitted to be used in school.
He carefully checked Wendy and walked closer to her. Wendy is already terrified and is unable to move. The senior student just lifted her hand and tried to smell them.
When he found not smell in her hand, his eyes squinted and was about to shift towards the man who is still lying on the ground.
Arrgghh…
The young man suddenly cried as one of his hands was suddenly flicked and broken.
The senior student saw that the young man on the ground is actually wearing a skin-colored plastic glove. No one knew how it happened and why one of his hands was suddenly wounded. But the senior did not bother in checking his condition.
As he walks closer, he could immediately smell the scent of blood mixed with the scent from the handkerchief.
In fact, he already has his suspicion a while ago, but still needed to do his job as part of the student security.
He now knew that this guy is the culprit. Plus he also found a black mask inside his jacket. And so he decided to report this in.
"Bring me some medic here. We caught a student who tried to assault a young woman…" he said touching his ear to call for a backup.
The commotion at this time went viral as there are some students who actually recorded the scene. The online school forum is ablaze with discussion as the students discuss this event.
The school administrator showed a worried expression on his face as he did not expect that such an event would happen before the school sports meet. And so he called for all the faculty and staff for a meeting.
While this is happening, Wendy is currently looking at a young man who is leisurely sitting atop a tree branch in a dark corner.
As a wind user, she felt the direction where the stone and the handkerchief came from. Although that figure is trying to hide his face in the darkness, she is still able to recognize his face.
She just silently bows in the young man's direction.
"Hmmm… she saw me? Interesting…" Curt muttered to himself as he suddenly disappears from his spot.
…
The next day…
Gary Guiller was brought to the police precinct and was filed with a criminal case. She was found guilty of rape and blackmailing a few females. The police were able to get criminal evidence against what he was doing to those women.
From the records in his apartment, they discover that he has been doing such a thing ever since he was in high school.
With him caught, Wendy on the other hand feels relieved. She was able to defend herself at the same time did not expose her secret ability to the public.
Wendy is currently standing in front of the gate while waiting for someone.
She didn't know who that guy is but she is determined to say her thanks to him.
Meanwhile, Curt is walking towards the gate while looking at his phone. He has an agitated look on his face.
He has been texting and calling Jenny Mae for the whole night last night and she did not even reply nor accept his call. It was as if they are back once again to square one. It was the time when she would text or calls him once a week or a month.
And he did not like that. He is anxious to explain his side. And he is also worried that she would be taken from him by that guy, Alan Kane.
As he walks, he suddenly found a young woman standing on his path.
"Excuse me…" she said in a cute tone.
The young woman is very beautiful with snow-white skin and a height of around 1.62 meters. She looks cute with a wavy bob hairstyle. Her red blouse and blue jeans made her look young and fresh, like a blooming rose.
Before Curt could say anything, Wendy suddenly grabs his hand and drags him to the side. Curt was a bit confused but soon recognized the young woman. She was one from that night, the one that he secretly saved.
"She really did recognize me…" he thought as a sheepish smile appears on his face.
The two introduced each other and Wendy said her thanks and invited him to lunch later. She even gave him her number before she walks away.
As Wendy enters the entrance, a sudden thought appears on her head.
In Esper College, one can learn almost anything besides the recommended subject they should take. And right now, she suddenly shifted her attention from mastering elemental control to medicine. When the attack happened, she was useless. All she did was run and hide. She could not even hurt those armed men with her wind power.
But then in the infirmary, she saw a person healing those who are wounded with the use of needles and his fingers. Plus, he is able to control the LEP energy and attach an arm back.
This scene fueled her determination to take up medicine. And right at this moment, she suddenly remembers the face of the young soldier that did those things.
"It was him, right? He was the soldier that helped all those people in critical condition at that time…" she muttered to herself as she suddenly stops walking.
As she turns around, she immediately ran towards the entrance. As she exited the other door, she immediately looks for Curt's figure. But upon discovering he is not there anymore, she feels a bit disappointed.
On her way to the class, she decided later that day to look for his name in the student's registration. She is not sure if he would take a break and that they would see each other in the school cafeteria, but she has her way of finding him.
Meanwhile, right at this moment, Curt is currently facing one of the great crises in his life. At the back of the school's gym, two young people are looking at each other in the eyes.
In front of Curt is one of his greatest weaknesses, a person that could make him weak no matter how strong he is, Jenny Mae Lee.
At the gate when he was dragged by Wendy, Jenny Mae saw it. At first, she was angry and wanted to immediately walk in front of the two.
But upon hearing the young woman saying her thanks for him saving her last night, she was immediately confused.
So now she wanted an explanation from him.
As their eyes met, Curt could not help but swallow hard in distress.
