Finding You, Again
Again 14 - Super Hero - Not

"What is the requirement to be inhumane to be handsome?" lui whispered very quietly to Roan.

Be careful that the hundreds of werewolves around him do not hear his words.

"What's? Ha--Ha-Ha-Ha....!!"

Roan immediately laughed out loud hearing that. The disgusting taste of the potion, which he had just drunk, became forgotten.

All warriors who will join the war are indeed obliged to drink the aroma-busting herb today. Their ambush would fail if the enemy side smelled their scent before reaching the mainland

Abel's plan, they'll ambush Crispin's forces once most of them are on the ground.

The fight in the water was not very profitable for the werewolves who had dense fur. Their body weight will add a few pounds if exposed to water. Their movements will slow down.

The vampires would also drink the same potion if they came later, only Hunter and Lui would not need to drink it. The presence of human scents completes their traps. Crispin will even be suspicious, if in that place there is absolutely no smell of humans.

Alva and his coven had made a large amount of the potion before coming here.

Now the warriors were queuing before the six of them to take the rations of potions.

And they all showed the same face, the grudging face of the tormented one. None of them enjoyed it.

Gathering them all in one place and time, made Lui aware of something.

All the inhumane that were there, more or less looked handsome and amazingly beautiful like Roan and Kamaria. Even Urtzi and Rigel who were in the group were more mature, still looked decent.

They look like former super models who are very well-built, with a few strands of white hair

Lui could also see how the Hunter that came from the imperfect also looked different from ordinary human hunters like Lael.

In one glance Lui could see how the handsome facial features of Inhumane were attached to them.

Jovi would drool all the way, if he saw them all. Therefore the curious Lui finally asked Roan.

"Why are you asking? Regretting too quickly choosing Duke, while there are still many other faces that are more dazzling?"

Roan finally replied after successfully stopping his gelatinous laughter, while wiping away the tears from the corner of the eye.

"No!! Don't say such a thing" Lui was a little panicked, afraid that the Duke would hear Roan's words.

The Duke himself was not far from them. But he was busy cursing after drinking the potion, not paying attention to the small talk.

Of course Roan was only joking, Duke as Alpha has above average charm, he admitted it. Only a few Inhumane could match him.

But his personality makes Roan not tasteful to hook him.

"I don't know about Elves, but werewolves and vampires have faces like that, because they're actually artificial beings". A cold voice came from behind.

Roan and Lui who turned around at the same time, saw Faust was sitting on a rock while cleaning up his row of weapons.

He held out three handguns and two sharp swords that exceeded Lui's arm in length.

"What do you mean?" ask Roan. He already knew the history of the inhumane as Sorrel had told him from the Duke. But he did not know what a beautiful face had to do with an artificial being.

"If you wanted to create a creature, wouldn't you make them as beautiful and handsome as possible? And Ronan did. Grandpa completed Sorrel's story for me yesterday"

Faust paused for a moment to slip the finished-cleaned pistol back into the sheath, and began to take one of his swords to sharpen.

"When he did magic to create vampires and werewolves, he deliberately chose humans with beautiful faces. Most likely to compensate for the beauty of the Elves. And of course since he performed that magic with the blood of Elves, then it ensured their descendants would inherit the shapely nature of Elves. And this was the result" Faust ended his explanation while spreading his hand at the werewolf crowd.

Lui asked with a light expectation, but Faust's very serious reply made her uncomfortable.

Imagining how Lonan killed the Elves and performed resurrection magic for the vampires and unification magic for the werewolves wrapped his stomach.

Since yesterday he's been asking Alva a lot about magic. His brief encounter with Sorrel, made Lui unable to ask him some of the things that made her curious. But Alva gave him that chance.

Alva patiently answered all of Lui's curiosity, aided by her covent members who were also eager to see Lui's figure more closely. Like Alva, they were all humans who studied magic diligently. They had never met an imperfect witch.

They also talked about Ronan, because he was the one who made Alva almost leave magic. Not many witches know about Lonan, so Alva was devastated when he knew what was the source of the magic teachings he mastered.

Alva's covent is a white witch covent, so they'll only perform elemental magic - like Lui - during a war

Alva tells little of the kind of magic that Ronan used, and warns Lui, if the magic is strictly forbidden. Due to the requirement to make it happen, it usually involves the life or a certain body part of a living thing.

And now Lui heard the other side of Ronan's story from Faust.

On one hand he was elated as his knowledge increased, but on the other hand Lui could not stop imagining Ronan slaughtering the Elves and taking their blood.

Lui's hair bristles at hearing Faust's story.

"Ughhh, I think the potion will return to my mouth, if I hear such a story again" Roan said as he covered his mouth with his hands.

"I hope no more witches perform such disgusting magic" Lui said as she shook her head, driving away the nausea.

"Maybe no one is as extreme as Ronan, because his magic talent is indeed very rare. But I once exterminated some witches who still practiced forbidden magic. They're nauseating. And not to your expectations, they're more than white witches like Alva"

"But why are there more of them?" Lui was disappointed to hear the testimony.

Faust laughed discordantly at Lui's question, laughing at her innocence.

"Because humans are easily tempted. Forbidden magic gives you almost unlimited power and abilities. Of course they prefer forbidden magic more often. The magic that his power sometimes surpasses that of an Elf, like a Ronan. Elves will never cross the line of hurting other creatures to make their incantations. But humans don't have to care about things like that"

"Oww..." Lui looked down sad. There is nothing wrong with Faust's statement.

The one thing Lui learned after she came out of the ballet bubble, humans can become very evil.

"What's wrong? Why are you so moody?"

The sad sighing voice of Lui naturally invited the Duke to approach. Especially when he saw that Faust was nearby.

The duke will not forget how Faust interrogated Lui first, it was obvious he was prejudiced when he saw them close together.

"Oh wow..that was fast" Faust said, looking at the Duke with a lazy face.He praised cynically the Duke's reaction speed for Lui's sad complaint.

Faust finished his work, though he had just finished sharpening one of his swords. The Duke's presence made him want to step aside.

"What makes you hate Duke so much?" asked Lui, which made the Duke a little surprised, because it was not usually Lui that aggressive.

"You're wrong! I don't hate Duke" Faust smiled obliquely, as he got up and shook off the snow that was stuck in his shoes.

"I hate all inhumane in general" he continued, then passed towards the hunter crowd.

"Ughh. I've never met anyone so hard to like" Roan grumbled at Faust's attitude. "And why would El like a woman like that?!" annoyed sigh.

"Because Faust is the opposite of the woman who's been hurting his heart" Duke replied as he stroked Lui's cheeks slowly, as he still looked glum.

Duke doesn't need a mindlink to know about El's feelings.

El had always hated her weak mother and had never fought against the cruel treatment of her stepfather. He also never defended when El was subjected to similar tortures.

Faust's different nature of one hundred and eighty degrees with his mother, certainly amazed him.

"F*ck!! you're absolutely right" said Roan loudly, to the point that several werewolves passing by turned to him.

"And you must not ask who, since the story belongs to El, I cannot share it without permission from El. Unless I accidentally think about it"

The duke prevented Lui who was just about to ask who the woman the Duke was referring to was. And Lui immediately pouted.

"Why is your mindlink control still so bad? Learn to control it!" hardik Roan to Duke.

Among the three of them was indeed the most powerful Duke, but his mindlink control was the worst. Duke's character who used to be honest, made him never feel like hiding something.

But these past few days, he had already worked hard trying to control his mind, having to hide some things that Lui better not know. In addition to El's bad memories, there are also stories about Lui's father that she heard from Oscar.

For that matter, Oscar had to tell him himself Duke was very careful when thinking about Oscar, so that his mind did not widen in all directions.

"okay!!' The Duke only answered Roan in passing, as his attention had already been distracted by El walking towards them.

"I had some warriors help Nora, the omega she brought was not enough if she had to cook in this amount. Some of Badira's warriors also helped earlier, Aygul told him to" El reported.

The Duke nodded, "Good. But keep an eye on it, I don't want any stupid fight to happen before the actual war".

Nora participated in this war, because other packs did not have the ability to cook in unusually large quantities. From the beginning the Duke had already proposed this to Abel.

Monath will supply food and medicine as long as they fight. And of course dr. Sidra is here too.

"AUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!"

The loud howl made Duke aghast, it was the warning howl of the guard warriors.

"Rohan!"

The Duke exclaimed as he undressed. Within two seconds the Duke had already run with all four of his legs, towards the source of the voice, followed by El.

While Roan pulls Lui away from the source of the voice. The Duke's call was to remind him that his job was to protect Lui.

While running, Duke opened the mindlink with the Blackmoon warrior who was on guard. And see something that cannot be explained because of its peculiarity.

The duke arrived at the place of guard three minutes later, and was stunned.

What he saw inside their heads, it turned out to look even stranger, after he saw it with his own eyes.

They look like imaginary superheroes in man-made movies, who usually wear costumes to hide identity. Even the shape of his eyes reminded Duke of one of the spider superheroes identical to red and blue.

It was only fitting for the guards to panic, because in addition to the strange costume hiding their identity, their scent also became disguised.

But it's not a problem for Duke. His nose caught the scent of blood. And know who they are.

"Pantsy"

The Duke asked for clothes to one of the warriors, and one of them threw it near the Duke's feet.

"Arkin, Oulam" called Duke, after he took off his transformation and dressed more appropriately.

One of them came forward, holding out a cell phone at Duke, having previously typed something there.

'It's good to see you again David. Ops.I mean Duke'

The Duke snorted reading the writing, explained Oulam who was standing before him. He handed the phone over again when Oulam's hand looked up.

'We have to wear this costume to avoid the sun, this way we can cut the travel time'

"Lumayan, but you should have told us not to have any misunderstandings" Duke said.

Appearing on the battlefield with such a unique costume was not in their plans.

Duke would not be surprised if the idea of the costume came from Oulam. His association around Hollywood will bring the idea easily.

"Can't you open that little costume so we can talk normally?"

Duke could not wait for him to type in an answer. Oulam's tightly wrapped fingers make typing work a little hampered.

'No-if you still want our help. Sunlight must be completely blocked. A slight gap means a burn. We'll open it as soon as the sun sets'

"HH... alright!"

Duke doesn't really know how the sun's effect on vampires. He only knew they could die if exposed for long enough.

The Duke then led them towards the building that Abel had indeed prepared. He made an adjustment to one of the buildings, and arranged it in order to block out the total sunlight.

Vampires can rest in peace there.

But it turned out that it was not necessary, it was only a while they walked. The duke could see the sky had turned dark. Winter guarantees shorter days.

"Wuahs..... I'm happy to be able to walk under the sun, but this mask is stiffer than I thought"

Oulam had removed his mask, and rubbed his head in relief. All the vampires behind him did the same.

Looking at the irritated-faced Arkin, the Duke guessed, he would never again wear that costume after this.

"You can queue up the potion over there" said the Duke, pointing at Alva. The table is empty. There are only a few werewolves who have not yet obtained the potion.

"Oh hey.. Is that your wife?" Oulam pointed at Lui who had returned to her place and was still with Roan.

"How did you know?" The Duke asked suspiciously. Oulam had never met Lui before today.

"He's the Duke's man, a charming man. I wouldn't mistake the scent of human blood, and from the looks of it it's clear he's not a Hunter. The scent of his blood was unique, fragrant and appetizing"

Oulam immediately turned and walked over to Lui.

The duke was very unheard of, as Oulam's explanation of how he recognized Lui from the scent of blood made him nauseous.

Oulam's tone of voice sounded like he was explaining the grade of wagyu meat to El.

Lui who saw Oulam approaching, retreated nervously before Roan finally held him back.

Lui knew that figure could not be human, not only because of his handsome face and also his costume, but if an ordinary human was that pale, he should already be unable to walk due to illness.

"Include me, I'm Oulam Roseate" he said kindly.

Lui who had been afraid, immediately welcomed his helping hand. Oulam's friendly tone slightly lessened Lui's fear.

"Eluira Theobald" Lui tried to sound bold, and welcomed Oulam's helping hand.

"A very beautiful name, very suitable to your dazzling face" Olulam replied smoothly.

"Stop!! Do you want to speed up the war?" snapped Duke.

Oulam as Sal is a very famous stooge in LA.

So his attitude just now was not a surprise to him. Duke heard the news of his wedding about two years ago. Apparently the habit of seducing can not just disappear.

And as called, the female vampire who had been waiting in line for the potion with the others approached Oulam.

"And Mrs. Theobald, introduce. This is my wife Hazel" Oulam said without blinking or in a different tone, as if nothing had happened before.

Hazel smiled and shook Lui's outstretched hand. "It's good to see you're healthy. We didn't get to meet when we were at Blackmoon" he said no less graciously.

"And please don't care about her words like that. I was trying to fix it, but maybe I was less strict in sanctioning it" he added, glancing sharply at Oulam, who had now turned away, pretending to be chatting with the Duke.

"Pfft---" Roan failed to hold back his laughter.

"You two are so interesting!" he said while laughing. And the Duke has to agree.

Men like Oulam are very suitable if you are with a strong woman like Hazel. He would easily rule Oulam's life.

Oulam could only smile wryly, and let himself be dragged by Hazel towards the queue.

Lui smiled amusedly at the sight of it, "I thought vampires would be terrible"

"Vampire is indeed terrible Lui, except for their Clan. If you ever meet one of those vampires from wherever they come from, you better cool them to a total freeze, then run away" Roan said, turning serious.

"You ever met a vampire before them?" ask Duke. He doesn't know about this.

Roan nodded, "In Quebec, after you left. They slaughtered the whole family in a villa. But they're very unlucky, because I'm staying at the villa next door"

And that's enough to explain what happened to that vampire next. Roan must have slaughtered them too.

"I've also met them in LA-"

Duke's story was interrupted by El, who approached him with a tense face, "They crossed over" he whispered.

The time has come!

"Prepare!!" the Duke said to Roan and Lui, before he walked over to Oulam and Arkin.

While Roan and Lui immediately passed towards the preparation tent.

The finished Alva divided the potions for the not too many vampires, following them to the tent.

There Lui changed her clothes for a more casual one. Myra brought him pants that were very fitting for him, with thick material that would make it easier to ride on Roan's back. For clothes he wears a shirt and jacket. Don't forget he tied his blonde hair into one at the back.

Alva is also changing her clothes with a more practical one. Her dress was changed with long pants and a thick sweater. All of his metal accessories had been shrunk and fused with his red stick.

After finishing, Lui turned to Roan who was waiting with a bored face.

Roan of course did not need to change clothes or tie hair, because all his clothes would be destroyed later.

In his hand was a cloth bag that would later be tied to his hind legs. The bag contained a robe that would later be worn when he took off the transformation.

He also carried a striking green rope that would later be tied to his front legs. The rope was quite pliable, so it would not break as they transformed.

The green rope was a marker if Roan was a member of the Alliance forces. When the war will be difficult to distinguish which werewolf friend or opponent. Therefore the Duke proposed this. Hunter tied it to the wrist.

The vampires were also actually planned to wear the same string in hand, but seeing their incredible costumes, they most likely no longer needed them.

Vampires from the enemy forces couldn't possibly wear that black costume either.

"Let me carry it" said Lui, asking for a bag containing Roan's robe. That way Roan can run freely.

They came out and found the Duke waiting in front of the tent.

"I have to leave immediately" said the Duke. The group will be on the front line.they will leave first.

Lui nodded, "Be careful, and let me carry it" Lui said, also asking for Duke's cloth bag, to make him more free to fight.

"Never be separated from Roan and Mom" said the Duke, handing his bag over to Lui.

Roan who was very memorized with Duke's paranoid attitude, simply rolled his eyeballs in annoyance.

"Go up, Lui will be fine with us" Myra who just came out of the tent scolded him.

With a slow grunt, Duke kissed Lui's lips at a glance and finally passed towards her entourage.

"He should learn to trust others a little more" Roan said, looking at Duke's back with narrowed eyes.

"He trusts us Roan. You think she's gonna leave Lui with someone she doesn't trust. This attitude of hers was already a pretty decent progress" Myra laughed amusedly.

At a time like this, the Duke always reminded him of Owen. They look very similar.
