I Became A Zompirewolf

Ashton waited and waited for Rose to answer him. He was hoping she would somehow give him a satisfactory answer... but she couldn't.

"It's alright." Ashton dismissed his question, "Your silence is loud enough to answer for you. Just tell Lucifer to contact me when he gets the time. Inform him it's... something potentially life-threatening. That should get him interested enough to contact me."

Saying so, Ashton took a step out of the room while Rose silently nodded. For someone having a bubbly and cocky personality like her, she was weirdly silent.

"Oh and the moment I meet Mike, I'm gonna kill him. No matter who gets in my way." Ashton insinuated with a calm yet freakish voice, "Since you care about him so much, you should tell him that. Also, I hope this... situation would not get in the way of our mutual friendship with Lucifer."

He continued, "Or else, I think his highness would be quite interested in finding one of Mike's relatives. If you know what I mean."

Rose had helped him immensely, that was the sole reason he wasn't planning on abusing the powers bestowed upon him by Jonathan.

But if she tried to do anything against him, he wouldn't have any trouble getting back at her. Hybrid or not, even she would not be able to bear Jonathan's wrath.

However, Ashton was hoping it never came down to it. But if it did... well, too bad for her.

The next day...

The news of Ashton's return spread like wildfire inside the campus. While those who had been tormented since Ashton's 'expulsion' could finally breathe out freely, those who had been abusing their family name were a bit worried and even began thinking about disbanding their groups.

Then there was a group that was planning to still carry on as usual. These were the seniors who had very little to lose and much to gain. Most of them did not belong to a noble family, yet their valour and strength were enough to make their own cult of followers.

The only thing they were afraid of was the fact they might get sold out by one of their own, sooner or later. Also, with Nicole, the leader of the strongest faction, detained, the rest of the nobles were forced to bite their nails while they waited for Ashton to make his next move.

Little did they know, Ashton had kinda put their case on the back burner. His team and the knights would still actively seek out the miscreants and deal with them, but Ashton was busy focusing himself on something else... namely finding the director's whereabouts.

Even before beginning the search, Ashton knew it was going to be on hell of a task. Especially since he would have to do it by himself and that literally, no one had any information about her.

He was spending most of his time looking for clues. Potentially anything that would guide him to her. But even after putting all of his brain cells to think of something, he was having little to no success.

That was until he received an anonymous request.

When he woke up the next morning, he found a letter addressed to him. The send did not disclose their identity, but according to the letter they had some information regarding 'the one he was seeking'.

Along with a request to meet up with the sender at the Black market. Ashton wasn't one to trust anyone so easily, let alone people who wouldn't even show their faces to him. But this case was different.

He was desperate for any information... anything literally. Also, he wasn't as weak as he used to be before. So if it turned out to be a trap, he could make his way out of the mess. Even if it meant getting some blood on his hands.

The only thing was... the meeting wouldn't be held for a week. It was disappointing and frustrating at the same time.

"It's best to wait and see what my options are. I can't blindly trust anyone who comes dangling a carrot in front of me." Ashton threw the letter in his pocket and got ready to interrogate the professors.

Despite what anyone said, the students would not have gotten so rowdy without some of the faculty members supporting them. While in the director's, all this nonsense was kept somewhat under control, her disappearance must have sparked these fools to do as they pleased.

Amaira and Tanaka were definitely in on the scheme, considering their blatant favouritism towards the nobles. Therefore, their interrogation was just a formality and nothing more.

As for Profesor Bancroft and Professor Kakaroff, they were too busy with their own shit, they wouldn't have had the time to indulge in such childish games. But Ashton was still going to have them interrogated.

But before he could even interrogate a single person, he ran into trouble. In front of the administrative building, quite a crowd had gathered. It didn't take long for Ashton to recognise who they were as he had seen most of them during his trial back at the capital.

"I really wanna kill these fuckers..." Ashton sighed and walked closer to see the nobles threatening Virgil and the rest of his team for locking their 'Precious' kids up in cells like criminals.

"All they did was have some fun with the other students! You can't have them arrested for that!" One of the parents yelled at the top of their lungs.

"You will have to answer for this folly you goons have committed!" Yet another one chimed in.

In the distance, Amaira and several other professors could be seen laughing. Well, Ashton took note of all of their faces before deciding to teach the 'parents' a lesson as well.

Suddenly Ashton rushed in and grabbed one of them before slamming him down hard on the ground. The man's nose was broken and his face got covered in blood.

But that wasn't all... Ashton grabbed his hands and snapped all of his fingers one after another while the rest of them watched him in horror.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ashton scoffed, "You already said your children were 'playing' with the other students. So I thought I would play with some of you just like your children played with others."
