Nicholas wasn't surprised when Richard asked him about that, because he knew Richard was very enthusiastic about mystical things.
"Come on, you've heard of it, haven't you?" Richard asked Nicholas back as if he wanted a very definite answer from Nicholas, but he was also at a loss as to what explanation was right for Richard.
Since the thing Nicholas experienced was like that, if the beast that attacked him last night didn't exist, then what kind of creature attacked him, Nicholas doesn't think he needs to think about that right now. Because it also feels pointless when he thinks about it.
"I don't know okay, yeah I'll just believe what you say, but if it was a werewolf or whatever you said, he bit me, then what would happen then?" Nicholas asked Richard confusedly, asking a question Nicholas didn't know. Nicholas is one of those people who hate mythical things.
And he doesn't care about things like that if they happen around him.
"Seriously, you don't know what I mean at all. Indeed, look first, you were never enthusiastic when there was a story like that!" Richard said while chuckling at Nicholas, then he gave a serious expression after saying the line.
"So it's like this, if it's the creature that bites you, then you will also be a part of them, you could say you will become a werewolf too. Because the only one who can bite and make another werewolf is the Alpha. He has the highest rank in his pack. And he's the only one who can give that bite to anyone, So if you're one of them, Then the full moon is just around the corner, you have to be careful." Richard explained to Nicholas about the creature he was referring to.
Nicholas who heard the story could only nod his head slowly because it felt like what Richard said was so impossible to happen in this modern era.
"Do you understand what I mean, or are you just nodding your head trying to understand what I just said!" Richard asked him again to make sure that Nicholas understood what he was saying but to say no didn't seem fair to Richard so Nicholas just smiled at him to answer Richard's question.
"So what if the full moon arrives!" Nicholas asked Richard because he was curious about what he was telling Nicholas. To be honest, Nicholas just heard the story from him, and it made Nicholas a little curious to know what exactly a werewolf meant.
"You're finished, if you don't understand then you're dead!" His words were like cursing at Nicholas, he said it in such a sharp tone. Then he suddenly laughed when he saw the surprised expression on Nicholas's face when he said those words.
"Hahaha, don't worry I will explain to you, when the full moon arrives, the werewolf who was just bitten by the Alpha, will show his true form at night, and he will run fast into the forest, then he will look for his prey!" Richard said which immediately surprised Nicholas when he said that the werewolf would look for its prey.
Richard and Nicholas have now decided to sit in the Tribune which is not far from the edge of the field. Because before deciding to go back to the forest, Nicholas has to make sure that what Richard is telling him, is true.
"Yes, the prey, because the werewolf will be thirsty for blood when the full moon arrives. His eyes will change color, and pounce on anyone who is near him. It's not animals that he will prey on, but humans that he will make his prey."
Richard said so confidently and confidently, saying those words to Nicholas.
Nicholas widens his eyes when he hears Richard say that the only race of werewolves is humans.
Nicholas can feel the rejection in the story given by Richard because now his stomach feels nauseous and is about to throw up because of the story given.
"Are you okay?" Richard asked while stroking Nicholas's shoulder, but Nicholas just shook his head indicating that he was okay.
Not long after, when Nicholas was about to ask Richard something else, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps around him.
Nicholas looked around him, to make sure who was approaching him because the sound of the feet was so clear he could hear it in his ears right now.
"What's the man's name?"
"Ah, the brown hair one?"
"Yes, it is true."
"He's Nicholas. One of the boys sucks at this school!"
Nicholas blinked while looking around him when he could hear the conversation so clearly in his ears. Someone's talking about him right now, and his eyes are now looking around for the whereabouts of the woman who just said those words.
"What is it??" Richard asked Nicholas confused when he saw his best friend looking around for no apparent reason, but Nicholas didn't answer what he said. Because Nicholas currently focusing on being able to find out where the sound came from.
Nicholas's gaze stopped for a moment when he saw her on the edge of the field very far from him. He can see the woman now standing with her friend at the end of the field from this place.
I can see her smile so clearly at this moment, she looks at me with a look so coy, she questions my name to her friend, who is now next to her.
Nicholas smiled when he knows that was her.
