2021-06-09 12:15:11Speaking of leaving, Sapphire chose to live by herself. She left without giving us a notice. I dont know where she went, but one thing I am sure of, she left to heal her wounded heart. At wala naman akong tutol sa desisyon niya. If that's what she thinks that is best for her, then, I will support h

Darkness Within Kabanata 25: Forest of Illusion
Cassy's Point of ViewPASALAMAT talaga ang lalaking iyon at hindi ko itinuloy ang pag-atake ko. Pasalamat talaga siya at napigilan ako ni Alleyn at Cristof. "Nakakapagod," naiiling na sambit ni Cristof habang pinupunasan ang pawis niya gaya ng ginagawa ng karamihan sa nakapasa.The first test ended and almost half of the aspirants were kicked out, including the one who attacked me. And now, since most of us are exhausted, unti-unti nang nagpapakita ang tunay nilang kulay."Cassy, I am so happy that you managed to control your temper," nakangiting saad ni Alleyn bago kumuha ng pamunas at pinunasan ang pawis ko sa noo at likod.

CASSYNAKASIMANGOT akong lumabas ng gubat. At for the record, wala akong inatake. Pero hindi ibig sabihin na wala akong sinaktan. Marami. Inatake nila ako kaya dinipensahan ko lang ang sarili ko. Magkaiba ang dalawang bagay na iyon.Nakita kong maraming lumabas na bagsak ang balikat, at alam ko ang dahilan kung bakit.That forest shows an illusion of our hidden secrets. And even though the evaluators are not able to see the illusion, they can still have a glimpse of it through our emotions. Heck, nakakainis. Some knights are surely asking themselves why I, a cold and composed aspirant lost her composure."Cassy!"

CASSYTULUYAN na naming narating ang base ng hukbong kinabibilangan namin. I really thought that it's just near the palace, but I was wrong. It's in the middle of a forest! Our base doesn't look like a base. It somehow resembles a mansion-an old white mansion."Welcome to our base, knights!" Pasia announced.Yes, I chose Pasia's squad over the other captains. And surprisingly, there are only four of us who chose to be under her command-me, my guardians, and Raven. And that really caught my attention and got me curious."Oh, ang ganda!" manghang komento ni Cristof. "Mas mukha siyang bahay kesa sa naisip kong hitsura ng isang base."

CASSYRIGHT after we heard about the mission, kaagad kaming naghanda. I don't know, but I got too thrilled to wear an armor while riding a chiore. I feel like I'll look really amazing."Yo, you're Cassy, right?" A woman with a long, black wavy hair approached me. She's wearing an armor, too, so I suppose she's a knight. "I'm Sherie, your senior," pagpapakilala niya nang nakangiti at nilahad ang kamay niya.Tinanggap ko naman ito at sinubukang ngumiti. "I'm Cassy Aguilar, nice to meet you. I hope we can work well as a team.""Speaking of that, sasama ka sa akin. Inutusan ako ni captain na gabayan ka." Tumango

CASSYUNTI-UNTING bumabalik ang malay ko, dahilan upang unti-unti kong maramdaman ang kakaibang atmosphere ng kinaroroonan ko. Amoy na amoy ko rin ang dugo sa hangin. At nang buksan ko ang mga mata ko ay natagpuan ko ang aking sarili sa isang madilim na lugar. Ginamit ko ang mana ko nang sa ganoon ay makita ko kung nasaan ako. At doon, napag-alaman ko na nasa loob ako ng isang kuweba.I tried looking for Sherie but she's nowhere to be found. Tatayo na sana ako para hanapin siya pero napaupo ako kaagad sa kadahilanang nakatali pala ang kamay at paa ko."Damn!" mura ko.I was about to untie myself when I heard a growl, followed by the lighting of the torches around. And

CASSYTHREE days have passed and I'm almost over with Sherie's death. Balik na ako ulit sa dating ako. At kahit hindi sabihin ng mga kasamahan ko ay alam kong masaya silang makita akong normal na uli. At sa loob ng tatlong araw na iyon ay nakilala ko ang iba pa naming kasamahan.Si Alu, isang wielder na siyang vice captain ; si Hersa, isang midde na siyang taga-luto; si Bestro, isang caster; si Alfonso, isang halbmiun; si Sebas, isang midde; at si Zema na isang halbmiun. They are our seniors, and their strengths are no joke. Kung hindi lang ako semideus, sigurado akong walang-wala ako sa lakas nila."Cassy, bumangon ka na riyan at mag-aalmusal na," tawag sa akin ni Alleyn habang paulit-ulit na kinakatok ang pinto ng kuwarto ko. "Bilisan mo na!"Naikuyom ko ang kamay ko sa inis. Ayaw na ayaw ko talagang inuutusan ako! Letche!"Sandali!" singhal ko ba

CASSYNAGLALAKAD kami ngayon papunta sa silid kung saan naghihintay ang hari. But something is wrong, not with them but with me. Hindi ko magawang sumabay sa kanila. I can't even look at them in the eye. Hindi pa rin kasi mawala sa isipan ko ang nangyari kagabi. That kiss. That kiss that did not let me get any sleep. That kiss that still bothers me even when Pasia asked Bestro to erase the memories of those who witnessed it. But since my mana is greater than the caster, hindi nawala ang memory ko.But, nakakapagtaka lang kung bakit nagawa ni Bestro na burahin ang memorya ni Raven about it. Pero, okay na rin iyon dahil mas makakabuti sa amin kung ako lang ang nakakaalam. Kasi mahirap na kung magiging komplikado pa ang mga bagay-bagay.Raven is drunk when he said those words and so am I. There is no assurance na totoo ang mga lumabas sa bibig namin."You seemed bothered, kid," puna ni

CASSYAFTER hearing what Raven said, we immediately went outside to take a look. And we are surprised that there are more than what we expected. There were almost thousands of goblins and ogres marching towards the base. And what made us more shocked was to see them armed. I can even see the violet colored poison dripping from the edge of their weapons."Cristof," I called. "You handle them.""No probs!" Cristof answered and took a few steps forward before looking back at us. "Mas mabuting umatras muna kayo. I can't promise my fire won't reach you.""Are you serious?" Raven doubted. "Can you really handle them alone?""Are you doubting my guardian's power, Raven?" I stared at him and saw him looked away. "Do you?""I'm just..." He sighed. "I'm just worried.""No reasons to be worried," I answered and pulled him away from Cristof. "Le

CASSY'S Point of ViewNAGISING AKO hindi dahil sa liwanag ng araw na tumatama sa mukha ko, kundi dahil sa mga brasong lumilingkis sa baywang ko. I shifted my position to face the owner of those warm arms."Good morning," bati niya sa akin bago hinalikan ang noo ko. "How was your sleep?""It's good as always," sagot ko at hinalikan ang tungki ng ilong niya. "I had a good sleep because I know you're with me. I felt safe that's why."He gave me a smile before cuddling me. We spent minutes cuddling before I decided to jump out of bed.Mula sa veranda ay pinagmasdan ko ang aking mga nasasakupan. The place is as lively as ever. Goblins, ogres, lures, dragons, and other pure-blooded monsters coexist with halbmiuns and humans who chose to live under my jurisdiction. I never thought I could bring back the liveliness of this gloomy place. I never thought I could change Daemion in ju

THIRD PERSON'S Point of ViewTHE AMOUNT of darkness coming out from Cassy continued to increase, to the extent that even the monsters around started to tremble in fear and horror.Sapphire and Evagne flashed a victorious smile before they decided to withdraw. There is no need for them to take Cassy since their mission has been accomplished, and it was to trigger the darkness that has been repressed inside Cassy's body.Pero kahit umatras na sila, Cristof and Alleyn pursued them. Cassy's guardians want to know their reason for siding with the Colossals.---"Ano nang gagawin natin?" halos pabulong na tanong ni Raven. Nawawalan na siya ng pag-asa. Hindi na rin niya kayang pagmasdan si Cassy at pakinggan ang sigaw nito. He just wants everything to stop, pero hindi niya alam kung ano ang dapat niyang gawin.

THIRD PERSON'S Point of ViewHINGAL NA hingal na lumapag si Cassy sa lupa. Her hands were supporting her body from falling. Hindi niya inakala na magsasayang siya ng mana. Hindi niya inasahan na ganoon karaming halimaw ang kailangan nilang tapusin.Nilingon niya ang mga kasama niya. Her guardians are near to their limits, too. So as Raven and his guardian."Akala ko wala na silang katapusan," sambit ni Cristof bago ibinagsak ang katawan niya sa lupa. "Mabuti na lang at naubos din sila.""Oo nga," segunda ni Alleyn na nakaupo habang nakasandal sa puno.Magsasalita na sana si Cassy nang may maramdaman siyang presensyang paparating. She stood up, trying to locate the exact location of the presence she felt.One. Two. She sensed two beings. Mabilis niyang inalerto ang kaniyang mga kasamahan at nagpaalam na titingnan niya kung anong klaseng kalaban ang pa

CASSYNANG MASIGURO na naming tapos na ang purification kay Lovelace ay inutusan ko sina Alleyn at Cristof na dalhin siya sa palasyo at doon na lang hintayin ang paggising niya. At dahil hindi pa kami sigurado kung nasa panig ba namin siya ay napagdesisyunan naming ilagay muna siya sa piitan sa ilalim ng palasyo.Napatingin ako sa buong paligid. Wala na ang apoy pero kitang-kita ko pa rin ang pinsalang naidulot nito. Napakalaki ng nasunog na parte ng kagubatan. At nasisiguro ko, kapag nakita ito ni Floria ay magagalit siya."Cassy," tawag sa akin ni Raven kasabay ng paghawak sa kamay ko. "Tara na?"Tumango lang ako at nagpahila sa kaniya. Habang naglalakad kami ay pansin ko ang pagtingin sa akin ni Clium. At alam ko kung bakit. Alam kong gusto niya akong tanungin sa naging reaksyon ng katawan ko sa yakap niya, pero maging ako ay wala ring alam.

CASSYMY KNEES trembled-no, every fiber of my flesh is trembling in pain and surprise. This is not what I expected. This is not the reunion I dreamed of. This is not the way I want her to see me. Napapikit ako at pilit na kinalma ang sistema ko. Pinigilan ko ang sarili kong lamunin ng kahinaan. I need to be tough.I looked at her lifeless eyes. She's not at her usual self. I can feel it. Someone did this to her. And I know who. I'm certain that it's the leader of the Colossals.Naikuyom ko ang kamay ko.This is too much!"Leave us alone. I'll handle her. Find the others and regroup," sambit ko nang hindi sila nililingon. "Move!"Mabilis akong gumalaw nang makita kong naghahanda na si Lovelace para atakihin ang mga kasamahan ko. I blocked her fire with my black lightning. Her power is not as strong way back before.
Darkness Within Kabanata 42: The First Wave
CASSYTHE FOREST near Daemion overflows with menacing energy. I can feel goosebumps all over my body. The chill that the eerie wind gives me is something I cannot ignore. No one dared to move. Even the slightest movement can be heard.Captain signalled the five teams composed of ten members to scatter. Hindi ko kilala kung sino ang mga kasama ko. There were three girls and six boys. The girls are casters and wielders. While the boys are all middes, holding swords, spears, and bow and arrow as their mediums. We were tasked to take the southern route of the forest.Kami ang reserbang puwersa. If there will be surprise attacks, kami ang agad na susuporta sa mga kasama namin.We hid behind the thick trunks of trees. Hindi ko mapigila ang excitement at gigil na nararamdaman ko. I can't wait to face them. I can't wait to defeat my father with my own power.
Darkness Within Kabanata 41: Commencement
CASSYWE DID NOT waste any time. We went to our respective bases to get the things we need. We have already confirmed the location of the Colossals' base-no, let me rephrase it, Pierre have already confirmed the location of the Colossals' base right before he formed this squad. Thanks to the mana of one of the chosen knights which enables her to locate anyone by using anything that has been touched by the target. She used the former king's cloak.And to confirm it, Nile teleported to the place she have located. And there, he saw an old manor overflowing with mana. It's located hundred meters away from the hole in the seal of Daemion.Naikuyom ko ang kamay ko. This is it. At last, I'll be able to avenge everyone who died and became sacrifices for his awakening.Pagkarating namin sa base ay agad na nagbigay ng order si Captain sa mga natira. They were st
Darkness Within Kabanata 40: New Crown
CASSY"ALL HAIL to the new king!"I can't hide my smile as I saw Pierre raised his hands to the people of Phantasm. Him, wearing that crown, is such a view to see. Hindi na ako makapaghintay na baguhin niya ang iilang sistema ng Phantasm. I know he will do so much things that will make this kingdom better.Beside him are the remaining members of the Circle of Mages and the captains of each squad. Mas lumapad ang ngiti ko nang makita ko kung gaano kasaya si Captain habang nakaharap sa amin. She seems to be so proud of herself, unlike before where she feels no confidence at all in facing the mass."People of Phantasm, it's been a week since my brother died," panimula ni Pierre. He told us that he has something important to say, kaya naman ay pinapunta niya kaming lahat dito. "And it's time for me to impose my own rules and laws."Pierre stated all of his plans for the
