*- Blyke calls John out*

This is the 207th chapter of *unORDINARY*.

## Summary

Blyke sees no course of action that involves walking away unscathed. He remains determined to give the victims of this attack a chance to escape. Zeke is convinced that Blyke doesn't have the nerve to pick a fight with John around. Thus, he immediately begins calling out the former Jack, boasting that the tricks that beat him last time won't work again. Blyke is more annoyed than intimidated, and is unsurprised when Zeke attacks with the same old moves. One dodge and pulse is enough to knock Zeke on his rear end, leaving Blyke face-to-face with the real danger. Blyke boldly snarks that John must be desperate for confidants if he's cruising with Zeke. John responds by accusing Blyke of holing up in his little club surrounded by scumbags, and charges at Blyke propelled by both the beams and form shifting he's managed to copy. Blyke barely manages to propel himself backwards in order to dodge the lightning-quick strike John dishes out. Knowing first-hand how terrible a fight with John would go, Blyke tries to beat a retreat. At that moment, Zeke manages to get up and heads over to where the action is taking place, hoping that John would be in the process clobbering Blyke when he got there. With the coast now clear, the remaining conscious student tries to get his friend to come to so they could escape. It was no use rousing him, so he picked him up and began walking to the infirmary.

John catches up with Blyke and thwarts his escape attempt by shooting his legs out. No sooner does Blyke land on his knees does John follow up with an offense shift-powered knee strike. Zeke catches up in time to watch a scathing verbal exchange between the two. John warns Blyke that whatever he and his Safe House buddies are plotting will fail, repeating his intent to crush the club. Blyke furiously demands to know what the Safe House did to to John, who answered that it was a piece of sh\*t that didn't deserve to exist. Blyke calls out John for making such a bigoted judgement call without ever seeing the club in session, adding that he sent Zeke to scout the place instead of coming himself. He questions the King's decision to sit out his own war against the Safe House. John says that the club wasn't worth the trouble, a claim Blyke refutes with the sheer amount of sabotage that's been attempted so far. Blyke accuses John of purposely avoiding Safe House because he's afraid of seeing that not every high-ranker is as terrible as he is. This accusation gives John some pause, but he doesn't let it hold him back for long. He shuts Blyke up by slamming him headfirst into the ground, and follows up by stomping his unconscious body. Zeke watches on, snickering in satisfaction. When John walks away, Zeke affirms Blyke's inferiority in the new order, and skips over him as he follows John.

Blyke eventually comes to in an infirmary bed, with the relieved Seraphina and Isen at his side. His first question is about who took over his shift watching the Safe House. Seraphina tells him that Remi is covering for him, and Isen tells him to get some rest. Seraphina mentions that two guys (the victims Blyke saved) left the infirmary earlier and told them about what had happened. Blyke recalls his last fight as well as the Joker incident, and gets angry. He tells Seraphina that he hates John in spite of her long friendship with him. He raves about wanting to smash the guy's face in just so he wouldn't have to see it ever again. Isen tells him to chill out, but Blyke doubles down by calling out of Isen's passive attitude towards John. He asks Isen where he would draw the line when it comes to John's brutality. Were they supposed to let him run amok just because he was King. Seraphina answers that, based on the system they had lived their whole lives in, yes they were. She says that, if nothing else, John's actions made the flaws of their society felt by everybody. But the need to correct these issues would be impossible with a King who refuses to cooperate with anybody. Blyke cares little for the epiphany, and chooses to keep hating John.

That night in the Girl's Dormitories, Seraphina sits at her desk and finds a note in one of her textbooks. It invites her to make a deal with the writer at Lovun on Friday at 5:30 pm.
