《Psycho X Psychic》Chapter 32 - Casual Encounter
Advertisement
Seeing Clade's death in the future, Hanon gritted his teeth and immediately took his phone out of his pocket.
'I have to tell Clade.'
But before he was about to type, the future vision disappeared back to darkness.
'Huh...? Why did it disappear again? Maybe it's wrong?'
Hanon put down his phone. At the same time, he saw the future again - the one that Clade was beaten, or worst, dead.
'This action of mine determines the future? But what does darkness mean? This is the first time I-'
Hanon's train of thoughts stopped upon realization. From feet to his head, he felt cold.
'My death...'
He looked at Teren who was patiently staring at him.
'Wait, if I warn Clade now. That guy will certainly come here to complain. Then he will meet Teren? What about me? Will I die because I warned Clade? Does that mean... I'm at his mercy?'
His pupils and legs tremble.
'This kid... he's waiting for my choice. He doesn't know it yet but once I pick my choice, he will decide.'
After a few minutes, Hanon's breathing got ragged and he began to perspire. At that moment, he finally decided. He placed down his phone and sat down.
Seeing this, Teren nodded.
"See you tomorrow, Sir Hanon."
"..." Hanon was left in the faculty with his hands covering his darkened face. He seemed void of energy.
Once Teren got out of the faculty, Lina shouted.
"Finally!"
Meanwhile, Iesa saw Teren's lifeless eyes.
'I wonder what happened.'
That was when he heard Hanon's thoughts.
'I have to report to the boss- he will die tonight.'
Iesa's eyes widened.
On the other hand, seeing iesa immediately placed a smile on Teren's face.
"You guys didn't have to wait for that long."

"Oh my god, I was about to run out of patience..." Lina further complained. Any more waiting and she would've said what she was really thinking.
'How dare the doggy made his owner wait this long!?'
Iesa ignored these thoughts and said to Teren.
"Can we... come home together?"
Upon receiving this question, Teren was blown away by the sheer cuteness Iesa shown.
"I... I... o-okay."
Teren found that he could not say no to her.
'What?!' Lina heard this and butted in, "Then since I waited, can I come too."
Although Lina was cute, Teren firmly believes that Iesa is on another level. He didn't even feel any impact from Lina.
"Isn't your home the other way, prez?" Iesa said.
"Ah..." Lina, for a second, forgot about that.
Meanwhile, Nick who experienced a whole day of anxiety was finally ready to talk to his almost-killer or soon-to-be.
The four went out. The guard asked them why it took them so long and Teren just told the truth about how Hanon talked to him.
Lina was the only one talkative in the four, asking Teren what their teacher talked about.
Teren just said the truth and the questions by Hanon except at the last part. That's where things got straighten.
But it didn't take that long since it was Lina who was the first who was separated from them.
At that moment, a car began following them. In a silent street, the car was very obvious.
'What's with that car?' Nick thought.
Meanwhile, Iesa was sweating. That was when Teren stopped under a streetlight and said to Nick.
"Now that the prez is gone, say what you want."
While ignoring the car that parked behind them, Nick answered directly.
"C-can you please help the Handwing Gang against the Spectra Gang?"

But before Teren could answer, a voice came out as the door of the car behind them opened.
"Handwing Gang? I thought that gang was utterly destroyed by the same person you are talking to right now?"
Iesa looked at the tall man that had sunglasses. Without stopping, the man went behind Teren and looked down.
"Ah..." Iesa trembled.
"If that's your request, Nick. But I hope you will not antagonize me from now on."
"Who..." Nick muttered as he looked at the smiling handsome man.
"Now that you have my answer. You can go now. And also..." Teren then looked at Iesa, "Sorry, but let's come home together for another time."
Clade placed his hands onto Teren's shoulders as he laughed.
"Are you sure there's for another time?"
Iesa then remembered what she heard one last time from Hanon,
[I have to report to the boss- he will die tonight.]
"T-teren... escape. You will die!"
Teren frowned, 'Does she know something?'
If a stranger saw this, Clade seemed like Teren's friend or uncle at best. The only out-of-place here are the fearful faces of Nick and Iesa.
'Why would she say that I will die?'
"Nick, can you please bring Iesa out of here?" Teren asked.
"I-iesa, let's get out of here." Nick pulled Iesa by her arm.
"No! I...!" she wanted to say something but knew that she couldn't do anything.
"Nick," Teren's voice got colder, "Gently..."
"Ah..."
Iesa couldn't feel it but out of fear and pressure, Nick's grip on Iesa's forearm was tight.
"S-sorry... Iesa, Teren can handle him."
"Handle me?" Clade laughed loudly again with a big mouth. His grip got tighter as he put pressure down.
However, Teren was unflinching.
"Iesa," he frowned, "Please... I'll just message you after this."
Seeing Teren's serious face, Iesa pulled her hand out of Nick's "gentle" grip and nodded.
"You better be."
She then walked away with her face glaring at Clade. Nick followed.
"Those were your last words to your cute girlfriend?" Clade asked as his grip trembled from the pressure he was exerting.
"Two wrong and one right. I wish but she's not my girlfriend, those were not my last words, and finally, you're right, she's cute."
Teren replied.
"Hm... as expected of the famed Devil Himself. You're still not falling from the pressure I'm exerting." Clade was about to frown and give his full strength down when Teren suddenly stepped forward and the center of balance shifted, lowering the pressure.
At the same time, he turned to make Clade remove his hands.
"Let's take this somewhere. Don't want a dead body on the public road, right?"
Clade's shocked face turned into a smile, "That's right."
Meanwhile, he thought, 'Where's Hanon? I hope he follows us.'

Hollow Moon
She doesn't like being told what to do. He knows what’s best for her. She is fiercely independent but he is determined to save her, whether she likes it or not. Del and Nyssa live two very different lives and that’s the way Nyssa likes it. She is beholden to no one so when Del comes knocking on her door, she sends him on his way with a wink and a sarcastic “yeah, right.” When that doesn’t work, she bolts. She just wants to live her normal life; gambling with fairies (the not-so-nice kind), befriending ghouls and painting the future all over the whitewash. No boy is going to get in the way of that. Excerpt: He snagged her wrist gently before she could flounce away, his fingers warm and firm. “You need to come with me, girl,” he said earnestly. “I don't need to do anything.” She was indignant. She knew that sometimes her kind of abilities could be unruly but Nyssa was quite capable of taking care of herself. She’d lived with her abilities since she was thirteen. She’d learned to handle them herself. “It’s dangerous for you to be on your own,” Del said, tightening his grip on her wrist. She pulled her arm from his grip and he let her go. He could force her to go with him, she knew, but he wouldn’t. “I don’t need your help, Superman.” She didn’t look at him. “I’ll be back in a week,” he said, ignoring her protests. “Be ready to leave with me.” He breezed past her, discarding the necklaces he still held on the desk and leaving. Nyssa sighed, watching his back as he disappeared down the street. “Fat chance, Superman.”
