Well, maybe things were not looking as good as Ashton was thinking. A moment later he was shrouded in troubles once again. This time, the trouble came in the form of a... human. As Ashton was on his way back to the Academy, a guy bumped into him. 

Although he was disguised as a werewolf, Ashton knew the man was no werewolf but a human. After all, werewolves did not require dentures. At least, as far as Ashton was aware of. He used [Detection] and sure enough, the man was definitely a human.

"The hell-" Ashton was shocked to see a human running on a street filled with werewolves.

However, before he could do ask or do anything about the situation, he was immediately cornered by half a dozen people. All of them were wearing the same uniform the two people Ashton had seen before in the academy. 

He was confused and didn\'t know what was going on until one of the men surrounding them yelled at the top of his lungs. 

"Don\'t move, you terrorists! It\'s better to surrender yourselves!"

It was only then Ashton realised the people had their weapons drawn and were ready to kill him along with the black-haired human. Soon, a crowd gathered around them as well, and it didn\'t look like they had any good intentions either. 

"I knew it! These bastards could not have gotten inside Contingent without any inside help." The man with massive goggles covering his face said, "See this werewolf, helping the bastard human out."

The others remained silent, Ashton couldn\'t believe how rotten his luck could get within moments. Just a second ago he was feeling as if nothing could have stopped him. But now, well, he had landed in a fcked up situation. 

"Look, I don\'t know what you\'re trying to imply, but I don\'t know this man." Ashton raised both of his hands above his head, "I was just walking out of there and this man just ran into me-"

"Shut it!"

Suddenly a squeaky voice came from behind, Ashton turned around to see who this new troublesome person was. It was the same man and the girl whom Ashton had seen talking with the Director a few hours ago. 

The girl still vividly stared a hole in him, but this time Ashton did not feel uncomfortable, unlike before. Instead, her gaze was unusually cold. At that moment, Ashton realised he had not reverted his facial features back to normal after leaving the market. Maybe that\'s why they could not recognise him. 

"So these people have their hands within the academy as well, huh..." Cap mumbled before taking out a couple of his knives, "No wonder that beast was able to get inside and out of the arena without any troubles."

"Tsk, these kids these days... it\'s so easy to bribe them. I\'m sure the resistance would have offered the kid a few skill pages and he started working for them." Someone else commented. 

"Why are you wasting time like this?" The woman with red hair and an eye patch asked the Cap, "Let\'s just kill the bastard and get it over with. We can take the kid in for interrogation instead."

"Oi, oi, oi! I\'m telling you, you are mistaken! I don\'t-" Ashton tried his best to explain the situation to the officers around him, but once again he was interrupted. 

However, this time he was interrupted by the human, who sprang back to his feet and put a syringe right next to Ashton\'s neck. 

"Let me go, or this fcker dies right now!" The human roared at the top of his lungs. 

"Yeah, nice move dumbass." The man who appeared to be just as short as Professor Kakaroff scoffed, "You think if you put the syringe on your comrade\'s neck, we will let you go?"

"Hold it." The one everyone was referring to as Cap told everyone, "Lower your weapons."

"But Captain-" The redhead tried to argue but was immediately shut down. 

"Scarlett, do as I told." The cap barked at his soldiers, "Can\'t you morons see, the syringe contains the \'venom\'. If exposed, even being in its vicinity would kill us all. Also, there\'s no way, these human bastards would take one of their comrades as a hostage. Even to save their own skin. The kid seems to be innocent..."

Upon hearing that the syringe contained the \'Venom\', the crowd around them immediately dispersed. Ashton did not know that this Venom was, but judging from everyone\'s reaction, it wasn\'t something that should have been so close to him. 

Initially, Ashton was planning on disassociating himself from the surrounding, clearing the suspicions that were on him and making a clean break from this mess. But it didn\'t seem like that was an option anymore. 

On top of that, Ashton was a bit intrigued about what this \'Venom\' thingy was, after all, he had never seen such a thing before. Also, if the thing could scare so many werewolves away from itself, then it was definitely something Ashton would like to get his hands on. 

\'Well, that\'s it. I have had enough of this crap.\' Ashton gritted his teeth in frustration based on the situation.

The more he wanted to help the humans, the more they kept testing his limits. First the slaves and now this man. He was being kind after knowing there was a human there. But that was until Ashton got to know that the man was indulging in some not so nice things.

Hell, the more he got to know about how the humans actually were, the more he seem to understand why the heck were they being treated like a plague on the planet.  Also, as much as he did not want to put his hands on the human, he needed to clear his name right then and there, or else god knows what the mistress would do to him this time. 

"Oi, didn\'t you see where I was coming from?" Ashton mumbled sternly.

"Shut the fck up kid!" The man was panicking as his grip around Ashton\'s neck got tighter and tighter, "Just get me out of here and then I-I\'ll let you go." 

"And I thought I am the only moron here..." Ashton mumbled to himself... before grabbing onto the man\'s hand and planting the back of his head right on his nose. 

No one there had expected Ashton to pull off something like that. The man was staggered and forced to take a couple of steps back. As soon as the terrorist was away from Ashton, the rest of the crew jumped the man, forcing the syringe out of his hand before tying him up using metal cuffs and chains.

Ashton thought it was the best moment for him to make an exit. However, there was one set of eyes, still on him. 

"Hold it. You are not going anywhere just yet.." the girls with pink bow and arrows stopped Ashton before he could slip out of there, "Not until the Cap says otherwise."
