Chapter 5 The City

• "Seraphine, we are here," Teacher Mayer tapped her cheek to wake her up.
• "Here? Where?" Seraphine asked, confused.
• "Blood Moon Tribe, Let's go. Here, take your things." Teacher Mayer responded as he handed the bag to Seraphine.
• Because of what she heard, Seraphine excitedly woke up and looked around. The bus passengers had gotten off, and they were the only ones left. Teacher Mayer put a cape on her before getting off the bus.
• Upon entering the village, they can see the prosperous lifestyle of the people there. While walking, Seraphine tried to remove the cover from her head, but Teacher Mayer immediately stopped.
• Then they entered a restaurant to eat. Teacher John's chosen seat on the corner. He immediately called the waiter and gave them their order. While waiting for the food, Seraphine's eyes turned and checked the restaurant.
• "Seraphine, after eating, I will leave you here at the restaurant. I need to go to the castle to talk to someone," teacher Mayer said.
• Seraphine immediately nodded.
• Teacher Mayer sighed. Even though he didn't want to leave Seraphine alone, he couldn't bring her.
• ---------
• When her teacher disappeared from her sight, Seraphine hurried out of the restaurant." So, this is my town..." she whispered as she walked.
• She arrived at the market and happily looked at the goods. The Seraphine's attention is caught by a woman running fast while being chased by men. She immediately followed them; her movements were so quick and agile. Then she met them in an alley.
• Seraphine immediately jumped high and kicked the men chasing the woman. The man hit by her kick fell on his companions, causing them to stop."Didn't your parents teach you that it's terrible to stalk, especially if it's a girl?" She lectures them.
• "We don't have time for you! Men arrest her!" The men immediately rushed at Seraphine, trying to arrest her. But she quickly bypassed them, and with her fist, she punched them. With the force of her blast, They flew back to the man who commanded them.
• Seraphine grinned before grabbing the woman and pulling her away from the area. The men were left, still unable to stand because of their injuries.
• Seraphine and the girl that she saves stop on the hill. "Perhaps you won't be found here," she said as she sat down on the grass.
• "Thank you very much. I'm Samantha," the girl said politely and sat beside her.
• "I'm Seraphine... why are those men chasing you?" she asked.
• "Haha, they're my father's servants. My new teacher is coming today, and I'm scared because someone who knows him says he is too strict," Samantha asserted.
• "I don't think anyone is more strict than my teacher... But he's kind when you do what he instructs you to do..." Seraphine giggled, but she was immediately stunned when she remembered her teacher.
• Seraphine immediately stood up, "I need to go! My teacher will be back, and he will punish me when he sees I'm not in the place where he left me!" she said and dashed.
• Samantha was left smiling as her gaze chased follow Seraphine. "Maybe you're a Luna in your pack. I hope I'm as strong as you..." She sighed and got up to go back to the palace.
• ...........
• Meanwhile, when Teacher Mayer arrived at the gate, the two guards immediately stopped him from entering.
• " I'm here to meet your Alpha... I'm Teacher Mayer, and he is expecting my arrival."
• When the guard hears his name, they immediately give him the passage, "Yes, you will find them at the back," the guard state.
• "Teacher Mayer, I'm glad to see you. Thank you very much for accepting my offer. Now I can be complacent that my daughter will learn," Alpha William said with a smile.
• "It's been a long time since I accepted a student, so I can't say I'm still the same," Teacher Mayer replied while sitting in the chair.
• "Nah... A good master will always be the best, and your name proceeded your works," Alpha William asserted.
• Teacher Mayer just smiled.
• "Oh, I forgot to offer you a drink. Anyone!" Alpha William shouted at one of the workers.
• Teacher Mayer was stunned to see the person carrying a snack for them.
• "Carol, I did not expect to see you." teacher Mayer asserted as he looked at his two former students.
• "Teacher Mayer, I have a lot of respect for you, but I warn you not to interfere with my relationship with Carol," William insensitive remarks.
• "I have no intention of interfering in your dispute, but you probably won't be offended if I call Carol to my house once in a while. Since he is also one of my students..." Teacher Mayer retorted.
• "Of course, I can't refuse my favorite teacher. Carol, once a week, you can visit teacher Mayer,"
• Carol's face lit up. Although she had a lot to say to her teacher, she didn't say anything and just waited for them to meet again.
• "Then it settles. Anyway, here is my student to be?" Teacher Mayer retorted and looked around.
• "Teacher Mayer, maybe-"
• "Dad, I'm here!"
• William's words stop in the middle when he sees his daughter running fast toward them.
• -----------
• "Teacher Mayer, what took you so long?" Seraphine asked when the teacher approached her.
• Although Mayer still doubts Seraphine, he does not investigate, "Get your things; we will go straight to the house where we will stay while we are here in Blood Moon," and begins to walk.
• Seraphine breathed a sigh of relief when her teacher didn't catch her. "Teacher, did you see my mother?" she asked as she followed her teacher in step.
• "Yes, But she is not in good shape. William enslaved her... But don't worry, your mother is healthy..."
• "I'm glad she's in good health. Now all I can think about is how I'm going to see her," Seraphine affirmed.
• "I think I've figured out a way out of that problem you're having," Teacher Mayer commented with a smile.
• Teacher Mayer stopped at a house with a wide perimeter. At the end of the village, which was also close to the forests, the place was suitable for their training.
• Seraphine looked at the door of the house as it opened, and a woman who was about forty years old came out, "Mom," she immediately recognized the woman because she didn't look far from the paint that teacher Mayer had given her.
• "Mom! Mom!" Seraphine quickly ran in the direction of her mother, who couldn't hold back the tears either.
• Carol greeted her long-awaited daughter with a tight hug, "My baby, I finally saw you... I can't believe this..." Carol whispered to her daughter as she continued to cry.
• "Mom, you're fine and safe. Every night I pray for your safety..." Seraphine sobbed.
• "It's better if you go inside first. Someone might see you and report to William," Mayer suggested as he approached the two at the door.
• Carol and Seraphine followed and entered the house, holding hands. Meanwhile, Mayer gave the two times to talk privately. He first went into his room and arranged his belongings.
