"Did you hear that Orion was defeated by a half-wolf that morning?"
"But isn't he a golden pendant?"
"Yes, he is! But I heard that he was defeated by a novice."
"Who is this half-wolf?"
"Apparently he's a new assistant to Mr.Zhanid."
When Meredith heard this, her ears popped up. She intently turned to the wheel of girls who were chatting. With a total focus on what was being discussed. No doubt her half-fox instincts became even more attenuated when she heard something related to Luke.
In her head, several thoughts were spinning, already imagining that the worst could happen. This was a defect that intensified in her heart, this constant worry about what might happen, about the future.
'She spoke a half-wolf, it could be any half-wolf.... But it's Zhanid's assistant... It's definitely Luke, it can only be Luke.'
