Wednesday: The Strongest Psychic

Chapter 83: Plan in the making



Luke arrived at the dorm and collapsed on his bed. It had been an exhausting day, classes in the morning, training in the afternoon, chatting with Principal Weems, a video game marathon with Xavier and Ajax, and finally infiltrating the Nightshade Society with Wednesday.

It was almost seven in the morning, and he only had about four hours to sleep. Today, he had a meeting with his editor in Jericho. They would talk about some things about his novels and future projects.

Four hours later, Luke was at The Weathervane. Jericho's main coffee shop. It is located on the corner of the main street, near Jericho's main square.

Luke had dark circles in his eyes and unkempt hair. The morning was cold. It was the middle of November and a temperature of 5 degrees. Not as cold as winter, but you had to bundle up.

Across from him was Josh. His publisher. A man who, since meeting Luke, has been very enthusiastic and talkative, as he makes a lot of money from him.

"The first two weeks of Carrie in theaters were a success!" said Josh enthusiastically.

"I'll buy whatever you have for breakfast!" he added, laughing loudly.

'How did his personality change so much?' Luke thought, looking at the enthusiastic man, he liked him as he was easy to work with, but he was better when he wasn't so enthusiastic and talkative in the mornings.

What money didn't give happiness was a complete lie. In front of him, he had proof of that. "Keep your voice down," Luke said, noticing the look on everyone's faces in the cafeteria. The last thing he wanted was to have his picture taken since he was known in Jericho.

After he said that, a girl and a guy approached him, asking for a photo and autograph. Luke agreed, although he didn't smile in the picture, he tried to put on his friendliest possible expression.

"You never liked to smile, huh... What would God think that gave you that face?" Josh said, shaking his head.

"Shut up. I'm an atheist," Luke said with a grimace. With Josh, he was already confident enough to tell him to shut up so he wouldn't get mad.

"How much did you say Carrie raised?" asked Luke, who hadn't heard right.

"In its first weekend, it grossed thirty-five million dollars. With that first weekend, it already covered the budget. Now, it's just profit. They didn't think it would be so well received," replied Josh, smiling.

'That's good,' Luke thought.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Here's what they ordered,"

Luke turned his head and noticed a boy with brown hair, green eyes, a kind expression, and a mole on his face.

'Tyler. The hidden Hyde and Jericho serial killer,' Luke thought.

'It's him. The boy from the woods,' Tyler thought fearfully. What he didn't know was that Luke was reading his thoughts.

'He has memories of the battle. It looks like he's not as unconscious as I thought. He's a full- blown psychopath,' Luke thought. He didn't know if this sadistic, psychopathic, cold personality was because of his Hyde personality, but he didn't care.

Luke remembered that, in the series at the police station, Tyler admitted to Wednesday being the Hyde and claimed that he likes to kill. His personality took a 180-degree turn.

'That's a real psycho,' Luke thought with a frown. He remembered a few times several people called him a psychopath. If he were, he would have murdered them, since he had the power to do so. His three auras would allow him to murder people and hide the facts without much difficulty.

But why would he spend his energy on murdering someone weak? It's no fun. What's fun is fighting someone strong and challenging. As for the weakling, it's best to ignore him.

Tyler, at the sight of Luke's scowl, shivered slightly. He left his breakfast on the table and left quickly.

'What should I do with him?' Luke thought as he started breakfast, and Josh was still talking enthusiastically.

He was thinking about whether he should get rid of Tyler. That way Marilyn would be a weak normie, and she wouldn't be able to resurrect Crackstone. Although in this world Wednesday is much more powerful, and if she fights to the death against Hyde, Luke doesn't know who the winner will be.

Killing Tyler is not difficult for Luke. He can control his mind, take him to a remote area, and kill him from a distance. If he is turned into Hyde with his telekinetic powers, he is confident The can kill him.

Just then, he felt a familiar presence within his domain. As he left Nevermore, he extended his domain as far as possible. About 20 km in total. That was his maximum. In the combat he had in his psychic class, he only used 10 km.

He was on alert for the Spellmans. In the summer, they did nothing. It was about time they showed up in Jericho again, and he had not been wrong.

He noticed two familiar presences. Two outcasts who participated in the attack on Raven Island last year. The faceless one and the half-breed girl named Amaranth.

'If they're here, Sabrina must be somewhere,' Luke thought, smiling inwardly. It wasn't a kind smile. He wanted to murder Sabrina and all those bastards on her side. Last time she'd escaped by the skin of her teeth. This time, it wouldn't be the same.

No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find Sabrina's presence. Noticing the presence of outcasts was easier than normies. Their presence is stronger. In a city full of normies, it is easy to notice them.

He noticed that the faceless one and Amaranth seemed to be watching the cafe.

'Is that why I came? I don't think so... No one knew what I would have a meeting about today with Josh. Are they watching Tyler?' thought Luke with several options in mind as to why they were watching the coffee shop.

Last year, he defeated Sabrina and the others. He even killed one of her teammates, so it shouldn't have been just them coming in. They must have had a different plan in mind to

assassinate him.

'They must think I have no idea they're here or that if I'm suspicious, I don't know anything about their movements. It's time to take the frying pan by the handle,' Luke thought, creating

a plan in his head.

This time, he would not wait for his enemies to attack him. He would hunt them down. However, the most important thing before hunting them down was to find out about their plans and gather evidence to present to the outcast police. Striking a blow at the entire Spellman family for involving third parties in their grudge.

"Hey, Luke, Are you listening to me? You haven't talked in a while," Josh asked.

"Yeah. You were talking about the Mystery of Salem's Lot," Luke said.

"Yes. Its sales are very good, but not on the level of Carrie. However, a lot of reviewers think

your writing is much improved over Carrie. It's a much longer and more complex novel. The reviews are great," Josh said.

"Yes. It will be harder to adapt it to film. Maybe a series would be good," Luke commented without paying much attention to this conversation.

"Exactly," Josh continued to babble, as Luke thought of a plan to catch their enemies.

It would be best to capture one of them. He had already picked a target. The faceless one. His strength was no big deal. He would be the easiest target to defeat. Although he was also confident of defeating Amaranth.

Luke's strength grew by leaps and bounds. It was as if he was someone else compared to his level on Raven Island last year.

Finished with his breakfast, he chatted some more with Josh and returned to Nevermore. He

was sleepy and had a plan in mind that he needed to think through with better mental clarity

so he didn't screw it up.
