After leaving the entrance, Jake's eyes were t with a grand hall filled with people dressed extravagantly, a stage was built in front of the hall, off to the side, a bar section was placed.
While in the middle of the hall, the guests stood. Either making connections or talking with each other, trying to get to know one another better.
The hall itself was huge enough to fit around two hundred people comfortably with a grand and beautiful chandelier above lighting up the whole place with beautiful colours, a soft music was being played off to the side with so people gently grooving to it.
Jake didn't care for all these as he casually walked towards the bar section and sat down.
'Thanks to Jack, I sowhat co to enjoy alcohol. But not like I can keep drinking it all the ti lest, I get addicted to it." He thought.
"Give that." Jake said pointing to a bottle that had the letter S written on it.
The bar man quickly poured a glass and put four cubes of ice in it. Then he skidded it on the table towards Jake who effortlessly caught it and took a sip while being deep in thought.
'Just imagine I wasn't there on that day.' he thought as he occasionally took a sip, downing in his thoughts and the soft music in the background. 'So many n would have died that day. The werewolves, I can't believe I have grown so strong that oga werewolves do not pose a threat to .
On that day we went on our first beast hunt as first years, we were almost killed by runts(lowest ranked in the werewolf army) but we managed to survive thanks to sergeant Lee who ca to help.
It turns out, he is also a traitor.' Jake thought as he sighed and took a mouthful of his drink.
'Then Aurora was attacked with managing to kill oga werewolves by the skin of my teeth and then thrust into a battle with a Beta werewolf which almost killed twice. But thankfully, it ran away for so reason.
Then I encountered the sa Beta werewolf again but I didn't engage with it and it fell off the bridge that day. I wonder if it's still alive or didn't make it after falling into that abyss.
Then the fight with Blip which I nearly died but thanks to the system, I ca out on top but fell unconscious for two weeks. Damn! That was bad. I hate to imagine if sothing had happened during those two weeks.' he thought again as the hall suddenly grew chattery but he didn't pay attention even when soone ca over and sat down beside him until he heard a beautiful feminine voice.
"Hey handso! What are you thinking about?" Turning around, he could see a stunning figure seated beside him.
The female was dressed in a tight fitting crimson gown, showing and highlighting her nice beautiful curves more. Unlike before when she had glasses on her oval face, today there was none.
Her beautiful black hair was swept back neatly letting it drape her shoulders and flow in the wind freely. Her beautiful oval face had a stunning smile plastered on it as she stared at Jake.
"E… Erin?!" Jake said surprised. "What are you doing here?"
"I will have what he is drinking please." Erin said glancing at the bar man with a smile on her face.
"R… right away ma'am." The bar man said and quickly got to work.
"For your question, did you think you were the only influential person in the world?" Erin asked as she moved closer towards Jake with her beautiful black eyes staring at his facial features. "I'm a famous reporter, of course I will get invited."
"Ri… right!" Jake said stepping back a bit with his face all red from blushing slightly.
"Although, I'm upset with you." Erin said pouting her mouth forward.
"Your order ma'am." The bar man said as he passed her the drink.
"Thank you." Erin said with a smile which felt like it could blow the man away as he blushed back to his post.
"Why are you upset with ?" Jake asked.
"Your birthday celebration, you didn't invite . Why?" She asked as she took a sip of her drink.
"I just forgot you existed." Jake mumbled as he took a chug of his drink.
"Are you saying sothing?" Erin asked.
"No! I ant to say, I wasn't even aware I was having a party. My friends decided to throw a surprise party for ." Jake said.
"Oh. That explains why the news didn't get out." Erin said.
"Sorry, how did you even know I did my birthday recently?" Jake asked.
"I'm a reporter, I have my ways." Erin smiled while Jake felt his heart thumping loudly.
"She's dangerous." Zee comnted.
'Agreed!' Jake ntally said.
"I heard you created a scene at the entrance. You sure are a trouble maker." Erin said, smiling.
"I just needed to put an arrogant weakling in his position." Jake shrugged.
"Attention everyone!" They both heard the sound of glass clinging in front of the hall with Bane holding a glass while the music stopped.
"Thank you all for coming!" Bane said as the hall suddenly grew silent while listening to what Bane had to say. "Before I continue, it won't look right for only to stand on this podium to give a speech so allow call the other big four on to the stage."
Right on cue, the guests were heard clapping as Rex and Rivock were seen heading towards the platform but Jake was nowhere to be seen on the stage.
"Huh? Where is that youngling?" Rivock asked as he looked around.
"Wasn't the werewolf slayer supposed to be there?" Soone from the crowd wondered aloud.
"What's Jake doing now? Didn't he head inside before us?" Emily asked as the core mbers were all seen in the hall looking around for Jake.
"Uhm… Jake, I think you need to be th…" Erin stuttered as she turned from the stage to look at where Jake was seated earlier but he wasn't there anymore. It was like he totally disappeared.
"Crap! What's Jake doing now?" Alex wondered.
"Uhm…" Bane muttered on the crystal in front of him which was glowing green. "Werewolf slayer, where the hell are you?"
"Right here." They all heard a voice say as Jake suddenly appeared beside them standing as if he was always there with a smile on his face. "It's settled, you all are weaker than I am." He smirked.
