Fire Breath
Wolf Attack

Sabina and Aiden walked through the city all day, hoping to get a clue about the Ephestus stone. They went from street to street and passed dozens of houses. The hot air made Sabina very weak. Sometimes they stop to take shelter. But soon they walked back.

They walked through crowded and crowded markets. Every time people touched Sabina, they would scowl in shock and immediately look at Sabina in astonishment. Usually Sabina just glanced at them cynically and immediately made them flirt. Aiden always laughed whenever it happened and it made Sabina even more upset.

It was already late in the afternoon when the two of them passed through the edge of the forest that looked very dark. Almost no one passed by the place and only the two of them were there. Aiden looked at the forest as if trying to penetrate its depths.

But all he saw were endless dense trees. There were no signs of animal life in the forest either. Not even the chirping of birds or the sound of crickets could be heard from there. Somehow Aiden felt the aura of magic even though it was very thin.

"What is this forest?" ask Aiden later.

"This is Richwood Forest. Deep down inside werewolves lived," answered Sabina looking at the forest.

"Do werewolves have magic?" ask Aiden again.

"shouldn't. Their strength was only to turn into a savage when the full moon shone on their bodies. Why the hell?"

"No, just asking," Aiden replied. He recalled the pack of wolves that attacked his village with Sin and began to think that the witch was working with the wolves.

"Do you think werewolves would cooperate with witches?" ask Aiden again.

"Emh. Werewolves tend not to trust other creatures. And they are usually very dangerous when they change. They can attack anyone indiscriminately. They recognize each other through smell. Therefore if they feel a different smell, they must consider it an enemy or a prey" Sabina explained.

Aiden nodded in understanding. He began to think the werewolf attack on his village and the simultaneous arrival of Sin Scove was just a coincidence. But he still felt curious about the magic aura around the forest that seemed to cover something in it. But having no answer to her question, Aiden decides to take Sabina back home.

The exhausting journey was finally over as well. Sabina felt almost melted due to the scorching sunlight. The more he walked the more he was sure that he did hate the sun.

Perhaps because he could not sweat and his own body temperature was indeed very cold. A very unsuitable combination. Just thinking about that made Sabina so long for the night that only the moon and stars filled the sky.

After a while, the two of them finally reached home. But how shocked Sabina was to find her house was in a mess. The leaves were shattered and the front door was turned into pieces of wood. His beloved sofa was already smashed full of scratches and the curtains were torn off. The windows broke and scattered on the floor. His television and refrigerator had turned into junk. The walls of each room were filled with huge scratches.

"Dora!" sabina panicked. "Norah! Where are you!" again and began to run around his house. But Nora is nowhere.

Sabina became very angry. His blood boiled to the top. He begins to turn into a vampire and growls. Angrily he threw all the items in front of him. And his house soon became even more ruined.

Suddenly Aiden's wand lit up again with a much brighter light. In amazement Aiden looked at his staff. But her impudence soon disappears realizing Sabina who shows no signs of stopping to destroy the house. In various ways he tried to calm Sabina down.

But it was a waste because Sabina did not listen to him at all. Finally Aiden decided to use his magic to calm Sabina down.

"Siluonces!" the thrill was pointing his wand at Sabina's body.

It felt like the magic he was doing was twice as powerful as usual. And immediately his wand was like taking out silvery tendrils which then tied Sabina's body very tightly. Sabina groaned and fell to the floor.

"Take me off Aiden!" with a hoarse voice.

"Calm down first. What you're doing isn't going to change things but it's only getting worse" Aiden said calmly.

"You didn't lose your best friend! You don't know what I'm feeling!" sabina is louder.

"I lost my entire village! Even my family!" avalanche Aiden snorting.

Sabina did not answer. He just kept thrashing and moaning.

Then Aiden immediately cast spells to repair Sabina's house. Each wave of her wand made one of Sabina's items return to normal. Finally, after a few minutes had passed, Sabina's house was already much better even though some claw scratches on the walls failed to be removed.

But more than that, all the broken items, windows and doors have returned as usual. After all was done, Aiden turned his gaze towards Sabina who was still thrashing and groaning.

"I won't let you go if you're still going to damage the things you've fixed" Aiden said.

"I'm just looking for Nora. I still feel her aura being near here," Sabina replied tiredly.

Sabina thought for a moment. Then gradually he returned in his human form. Aiden released his magic bond and helped Sabina stand up.

"Mary. I tried to look for her at Maria's house" Sabina stood up.

The two then ran towards Maria's house. Sabina hurriedly knocked on Maria's house. A few moments later Maria opened it with a worried face.

"Is Nora.." said Sabina.

"Yes, he's here" Mary gave way to Sabina and Aiden to enter her house.

They rushed in and saw Nora sleeping comfortably on Maria's living room couch. He was still intact and even his fur did not fall out a single strand. Sabina immediately grabbed Nora and hugged her in her chest. Nora awakens in shock but then realizes that she is being hugged by her employer.

"I heard a loud noise from your house this morning. But all that was so fast. When I was in front of your house, I saw your cat collapsed. I'll just bring him here. But I did not find any injuries. Maybe he was just surprised. What's going on in your house?" ask Mary then.

"Maybe thieves. But since there were no precious objects they found in my house, they got upset and destroyed it, "Sabina replied lying.

"Indeed, there has been a lot of criminal activity lately. Many people are now criminals. You have to be careful Sabina, whether you live alone anymore" said Maria.

"I'll look after him" Aiden said immediately.

Maria looked at Aiden as if she had just realized the man's whereabouts.

"Oh, sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Aiden Catbones. I'm Sabina's friend." said Aiden reaching out.

"of course. Sabina told me about you once, "Maria answered welcoming Aiden's hand.

"really?" ask Aiden happy. He looked at Sabina while raising his eyebrows.

Sabina looked back at him expressionlessly. It seemed that the girl was still irritated by the event that had just happened. Aiden who understood the situation immediately took Sabina home.

"I think we should go home soon. There are some parts of the house that need to be repaired" Aiden said later.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" ask Maria kindly.

"Your help is more than enough. We're very grateful for everything you've done" Aiden said.

"No need to be confused. I have also been helped by Sabina a lot. All right, then be careful." said Maria, letting them go.

"What's going on, Nora?" sabina asked after they all returned home.

"Wolf man came here this morning and messed up the whole house" Nora explained.

"Then, what did they do to you?" ask Sabina again.

"They didn't do anything. They think I'm an ordinary cat. I just got a little bumped into the stuff they destroyed."

Aiden looked at Sabina who looked very worried. But her worry far exceeded Sabina's. Question after question filled Aiden's mind without her being able to answer. But then, the question that bothered him the most.

"Why can a werewolf change in the morning? There was no way they would get moonlight in the morning" he said later.

Sabina stared at him in horror. He himself had only realized this awkwardness.

"Very absurd." Sabina said.
