In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

Chapter 103

103 The Lycans and The Werewolf

The brown wolf snarled at the matron, the fight between them was inevitable, Henry and Vale pulled Anne over, and Justice was in the corner, seems like the matron wasn’t the only one who transformed.

There were three people in total, Vale cast protects and reflects Spell, he protected Anne in the other room while Henry was helping Justice.

“That was Xavier, right?! Tell me I wasn’t wrong!” Anne shouted at Vale, she was confused and somehow felt deceived.

Vale stared at her, he was quiet for a while and finally spoke a few words, “Not right now.”

His answer already confirmed what she need to know, as for now, they were in a distressed situation, Anne saw one of the open doors in the left room, she took Vale’s hand and pulled him to the left door. They were outside in the orphanage back yard.

“We need to run!” Said Vale to Anne.

“Wait, what about the others?!” Anne was screaming she doesn’t want to leave anyone, especially anyone that she begin to care about.

Vale went quiet and just pulled her away from the orphanage. The carriage was still parked on the road, where the driver still waiting. He open the carriage door and asked Anne to go inside.

“Go to the inn on the outskirts of the town!” He orders the driver to go away, “Go! As fast as possible!”

.....

The carriage horses neighed and galloped away leaving dust behind, Anne called Vale’s name while the young man smiled at her, he cast a full shield for the carriage. After he was sure that Anne will be safe, Vale put on his hoodies and crafted a powerful wind spell, a thunderstorm came and a whirlwind of a tornado came to wreak a havoc on the orphanage, half of the building got destroyed, and one of the transform people got sucked in and thrown meters away.

Justice and Henry run from the inside and curse at Vale.

“Seriously?! You’re not going to wait for us to run outside!” Justice glared at the magi captain. Their body is full of debris from the fallen building.

Vale smirked and winked at Justice, “Don’t worry, I know all of you will survive.”

“This f*cker really become so c*cky just because he managed to cast a high level spell now.” Said, Henry.

“Where’s Xavier?” Asked Vale, ignoring the tease from Henry.

“He chased the matron, she got away with half of the children.” Said someone from their behind.

The three of them turned their head to the source of the voice, they saw Xander standing smugly at them.

Justice frowned at him, “So, I guess you’re the one that Xavier saw in the forest back then?”

“You guessed correctly, your majesty.” Said Xander at Justice, he even bow theatrically, mocking the crown prince.

Henry was in a rage, he walk faster and when he was in front of Xander he punched the teenage boy in his face. Vale and Justice don’t even tried to stop him. Xander smirked while he wipe the blood from his mouth.

“I deserve that, don’t worry, I don’t even feel the punched anyway.” He still managed to mock Henry.

“Careful, he maybe looks the weakest of us all, but there’s a power within him.” Justice warned the arrogant teenager, he then frowned at Xander, “What exactly happened here? Care to explain?”

“My brother will explain everything, let’s go back to the inn, after all, the cute girl with purple hair will need to hear everything as well.” Said Xander to Justice.

“What?! What did you call her?!” Henry, who was still furious at Xander, now glaring at him.

“Wow, please, I don’t mean any harmed, I know that the girl is off limits, my brother already warned me as well.” Xander chuckles at Henry’s annoyance, “Come on, just follow me, my brother is probably already at the inn right now.”

Xander was right, on the inn, Anne was trying to go back to the orphanage, and she demanded the carriage driver turn the carriage back to the orphanage. Until a large and firm hand touched hers from the window, she turned at the owner of the hand, Xavier was looking at her.

The man just wearing a simple shirt with pants, he seems in a hurry to wear anything to look decent.

“Xavier...” Anne whispered when she look into the golden eyes of the man that had her worried for couple of days.

“Let’s go inside, it was cold out here, you can catch a cold illness.” Said Xavier to her.

“Talk to yourself, you barely have any clothes on.” Muttered Anne, while she take a step into the inn, she ignored Xavier the whole way inside, until they reached the corner of the supposed lobby.

Walking closer to Xavier, Anne then slapped his face as hard as she could, s she felt a sting come all over her hand. She curses and shakes her hand, Xavier catches the hand, he looks thoroughly at the hand that slapped him earlier.

“Are you alright?” Asked Xavier worried about Anne’s hand.

She glared at him, “Why am I the only one that felt hurt, ugh!”

“I am sorry, I can’t help it, it was in my blood.” Said Xavier, he grinned at her while our heroine curses repeatedly at him.

“Xavier!” Shouted an unknown man at Xavier.

The two of them turn around to see an elderly man leaning on the post beside the door, “Why did you bring a young lady to this inn? I’ve told you to keep your private life at the capital out from our business at Wolgala!”

Anne couldn’t take off her eyes off the elderly man, somehow he reminds him of someone. That someone actually stand still beside her. Xavier scratches his head awkwardly.

“Sorry uncle, they came looking for me, I need to make sure she was saved.” Xavier gave the elderly man an apologetic smile.

The elderly man let out a sigh and stare at the two of them, “Then, go inside to the hideout, don’t you dare to talk about anything in there.”

“Xavier, who is he?” Asked Anne to the huntsman captain.

“He was my grandfather’s brother, the one that left us in the orphanage.” Xavier explained to Anne while he brushes her hand, “How’s your hand? I am sorry.”

“Sorry for what? I’m the one who hit you.” Grumbled Anne to Xavier.

He smiled at her grumbling, “Come on, I’ve heard my brother already here with the others”

“Wait, Xavier!” Anne pulled him making the big man almost fall.

“Whoa! Hold on Anne, you almost make me fall.”

“I’m sorry... uhm... I’m glad you’re okay.”

After she spoke about her feelings, Anne immediately run to inside of the hideout. He felt a warm tingling just by her words. Xavier’s grinning from ear to ear while he rustled his hair.

When Anne and Xavier entered the hideout, Justice, Vale, and Henry glared at Xavier. Xander on the other hand was smirking at the corner, he was enjoying the drama that will ensue.

“Would you care to explain what the hell was happening?!” Justice asked his friend demanding a tangible answer.

“I am sorry, I don’t have enough time to explain everything,” Xavier felt a bit guilty that all of his friends and even Anne have to come to the Wolgala for him.

“So Xander’s here was in your group all along?” Asked Henry, he was eyeing the teenager’s with such annoyance.

“Yes, he asked for my help to eradicate the lycans, they already outnumbered the werewolf, I need to help them before they become more powerful,” Xavier explained their situation, while Anne tried to comprehend the situation.

She raised her hand with confusion on her face, “Excuse me, so... Xavier is a werewolf?!”

Xander chuckles while he teased His brother, Xavier, “Gosh, brother, you never told her about your ancestry?”

“Shut up Xander!” Xavier scolded his brother while slapping his head.

“Hey! I wasn’t wrong! If you wanted her to be your ma...”

Xavier slams the table, cutting the sentence if his little brother, “Xander... Do shut up!”

Anne knew what was inside Xander’s thoughts, and truth to be told, she doesn’t hate the idea. Her face blushed with all shades of red, and everyone was noticing. Xavier cleared his throat and felt happy by looking at Anne’s reaction.

The old man from earlier, just goes inside the hideout, his eyes looking around the new group that infiltrates his hideout.

“So, this is your friends, quite a remarkable group, a crown prince, a duke in a making, and a talented magi.” His eyes then go to Anne, “Who’s this young lady?”

Xavier took a glance at Anne, “She...”

“My name is River Anne, but you can call me Anne, I’m a healer... Well, an exam participant this year.” Said Anne to the old man, before Xavier could finish his sentences.

“Oh, so you are... Hmm...” The old man grinned at Xavier, “I can see why you like her, hmm... all of you apparently.”

Now it is them who flustered, while Anne was smiling.

“Alright, enough of the simple conversation, Xavier, I can see that the matron and her lackeys escaped, but what about the children?” The old man looked at Xavier, back to his serious expression.

“We captured most of the children, I’ll let you decide their fate.” Xavier informed his uncle, in his hand, there’s a parchment containing the name of the captives.

“Wait, let us help!” Said Justice to the old man, “Xavier is my sworn brother, all of us wanted to help.”

The other three including Anne nodded their head. Xavier and the old man looking at each other.

“Hmm... We could use a pair of the capable hand of course.” The old man smiled and said, “Then get ready to battle, at the festival in two days.”

“Why do we need to wait? Why not attack right now?” Asked Vale.

“Because the lycans will be gathered at the same spot at the festival, where they feast on people who came to visit.”

All of them gasped.
