Dracula, werewolves, mermaids, Mystique, and many other creatures live side by side, and their populations are also much smaller than that of normal humans.

Selena sat alone on a park bench near the Academy, with Alice sitting not far from her. She wanted to greet Alice but was afraid Matthias would suddenly arrive and be mad at her for talking to Alice since there was no practice today.

But finally, Selena got up from her seat and walked toward Alice. "Hi Alice."

Alice looked at Selena and said. "Hi." Alice smiles warmly.

Selena smiled. "Are you waiting for your boyfriend?"

Alice nodded. "Yes, I'm also waiting for my friend. Her name is Narine Marianne. She's also beautiful like you."

Alice chuckled. "Thank you, but you're far more beautiful."

"Yes, she's from the mermaid race that rules the Aqueveira Ocean. You should meet her. You could sit with me." Alice said.

Selena looked hesitant. "But what if your boyfriend gets angry?"

"Don't worry, if he gets angry, i'll scold him back." Alice chuckled.

Narine walked toward the two of them and sat next to Alice. "Hi, Alice."

Selena looked surprised. Was she really a mermaid? No wonder she looked so beautiful and exotic.

"Hey, who is he? Is he your friend?" Narine asked Alice.

Alice nodded. "Let me introduce you to my friend, her name is Selena, she's in the natural sciences department."

The girl smiled, "Hi, I'm Narine Marianne. Yes, that's my human name." Narnie laughed.

Selena smiled back at Narine. "I'm Selena. You're so beautiful, just like Alice."

"Of course, we're best friends! Long before we entered the academy. Sometimes i'll go swimming and stop by Mystique Island to meet Alice." Narine said.

"Whoa, really? So you guys have been friends for a long time!" Selena said happily.

Selena is very happy today. She finally got a little closer to Alice, and she also made friends with a mermaid! Very cool. There are only ordinary people in Wald Isle. So before going to the Vienstorian, he had never met people like them.

Albert buttoned up his shirt for a royal meeting, but Matthias wasn't invited. Albert always loved Matthias. He didn't know what really happened to Matthias until his family hid Matthias until he was 11 years old. It was clear that their parents had told him to let Matthias go if he died at that time. Albert was only 9 years old and Matthias was only 1 year old. Albert was still too young to understand what his parents were saying, but now he wonders what they meant by their words.

Riven enters the room, and he already wears his formal attire. "Matthias? You didn't wear formal clothes?" Asked Kieran. He thought Matthias was invited to the royal meeting.

"I'm not going to the meeting." Matthias said.

Kieran looks shocked. "Huh? I thought mother and father would take you too." Kieran sits beside Matthias. "I miss you."

Matthias chuckle. "I miss you too. Well, i have a project. I'm not going, even if they invited me." Matthias said.

Albert smiled at Matthias. He already wears his formal attire. "I'm going now, take care of yourself." Albert said.

Matthias just nodded. Albert, Kieran, and both of their parents waved at Matthias as their car drove away from the palace.

Matthias gets into the car. He only stopped by because his parents told him to come and have lunch with them. Even though they have a royal meeting tonight without Matthias, as always.

"Go to Alice's house." Matthias said to Darcy, and Darcy nodded and drove the car toward Alice's house.

Alice greeted Matthias with a smile. She gave Matthias a welcoming hug. Matthias hugged Alice back, tightly.

"I miss you." Matthias said.

"I cooked quite a bit earlier, let's eat, and invite Darcy too." Matthias nodded, giving Darcy the signal to come inside the house.

Matthias ate heartily. Even so, he could still taste the deliciousness of eating normal food like other humans, but he needed unusual food every few times a week.

Alice notice the scratch marks on Matthias's body. Matthias was only wearing a shirt with a few buttons undone at the top, and the wound was slightly visible because it extended from his bellybutton to his chest.

"Where do you get that wound?" Asked Alice.

Matthias was surprised and realized that Alice had seen his wound. "Oh, it's okay, it's just a small cut."

Alice shook her head. "It didn't seem like a small wound." Alice's touch his shirt, she unbuttoned it, and sure enough, it was a long and deep wound. "What kind of wound is this?" Alice asked with a worried tone.

"I was hunting animals with Darcy and the animal scratched me." Matthias said. He is lying.

"No, if this is definitely a lie, it doesn't look like a wound from an ordinary animal!" Alice said with loud tone.

Matthias exhaled, looking at Darcy, but Darcy only nodded his head and gestured for him to just tell her. Matthias nodded his head and looked back at Alice.

"This wound was caused by Dieter. His nails suddenly grew long and he scratched me." Matthias said.

"Didn't that happen a few days ago? Why didn't you tell me? No wonder your jersey is ripped! You should just told me!" Alice yells at Matthias.

"I don't want to make you worried." Matthias said.

"But you could have told me!" Alice snapped.

"I'm sorry..."

"If you had told me, I could have healed it immediately!" Alice yelling again.

Alice pulls out a few strands of her hair and places them on the wound. The wound slowly healed and disappeared on its own.

"But how could that student do this to you, and you said his fingers lengthened? Was he a werewolf?"

Matthias nodded. "Yes, it seems he was a werewolf."

"But why did he attack you? Did you do anything wrong to him?" Asked Alice.

"I don't know. I didn't even know he existed before he joined the team. I don't even care about him. Let's just keep eating, your food is really delicious." Matthias is trying to soothe her.

Alice sighed. "Alright, you have to eat a lot!" Alice said. 

Matthias just smiled and nodded. "Mhm, your food is really delicious."
