THE 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. It's making him feel worthless!
"Kailangang mak
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 WAS walking alone in the hallway of our college department when a group of three girls stood in my way. They were looking at me with anger and disgust on their eyes."Move," I ordered. "Don't stand in my way or you'll regret it."They laughed, as if they heard a joke. Tinaasan nila ako ng kilay at pinameywangan. They stared at me like they are superior than me. One of them stepped forward and scanned my whole body from head to toe.I remained calm. I don't want to cause any trouble. Ayokong sirain ang tiwalang ibinigay sa akin ni Mama. At isa pa, hindi ko alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa school na ito kapag nagalit ako."I heard that Mark likes you," the girl in the middle stated. "But looking at yo
Cassy's Point of ViewAFTER minutes of falling into an endless darkness, I saw a ring of light. And as seconds pass by, it grows bigger and bigger until it became a blinding light. Tinakpan ko ang mata ko gamit ang aking kamay. At nang mawala ang liwanag ay bumungad sa akin ang Oakland, ang Capital City ng Phantasm. The whole place has this european vibe, including the structures and climate.Sa Central Market ako napadpad kaya kaagad na sumalubong sa akin ang ingay galing sa mga tindero at tindera at mga mamimili. I can also smell the aroma of newly baked pastries and bread, plus the scent that the flowers from the flower shops emit.As I took a step forward, normalis people started looking at me.

I can also smell the aroma of newly baked pastries and bread, plus the scent that the flowers from the flower shops emit.As I took a step forward, normalis people started looking at me. Those who were doing something stopped just to look at me. Normalis are those humans who posses no mana or commonly known as magic. They are wondering why I am wearing such clothes, which is my school uniform. Great.I ignored them and roamed around. I need to find a jewelry shop where I cou
Cassy's Point of ViewIt's been two weeks since that evaluation, at ngayon ang simula ng second semester ng klase. I happened to be lucky at nagkataong malapit na palang matapos ng first semester nang gumawa ako ng kalokohan. My mother also came here, but for a short period of time. She just came here to give the academy all the documents needed for my enrollment. Huminga ako nang malalim bago muling sinulyapan ang aking sarili sa salamin. I really love the uniform. It suits the power I possess. I also love the cloak. Nang makontento ay hinila ko na ang maleta ko palabas sa apartment na pansamantala kong tinuluyan. Sa wakas. Makakaalis na rin ako rito. I'm so sick of my loud neighbours. Kamuntik ko na ngang pasabugin ang buong apartment na ito,
Cassy's Point of ViewTHE moment I entered this room is the moment I knew this is the punishment I get from all the bad things I have done in my whole life. Well, technically, I hate being around with people, but I am still expecting na marami-rami ang classmates ko, kasi iyon naman ang expected normal setting ng school."Good morning!" a girl with blonde hair tied into pigtails, energetically greeted while waving with a big smile plastered on her face. "Morning," I responded before I took the very last seat, which is far from them."Why are you sitting there?" tanong ng isa pang babae. She has this long wavy black hair. Her voice's too soft. So Angelic. "Sit beside us."
Alleyn's Point of ViewTHE moment I saw the strongest section is the moment I knew that my good day is over. The Ruby-S. The section located at the uppermost part of the academy, where there are only four students. Sila ang suki namin sa pambubully, dahil parang insulto raw kami sa kanila, dahil pareho raw ang bilang namin. At isa pa, nandidiri daw sila sa mga mahihinang gaya namin. I really don't understand why there are people who feel superior towards other.And since we are weak and powerless, we can do nothing about it but to let them bully us until they're satisfied."Well, well, what do we have here? A new laughing stock, ey?" Merilla, the strongest Midde among the students, said while looking at Cassy.
Cassy's Point of ViewI WOKE up and went to our classroom early. This always happen to me whenever I get too excited. Well, what can I do? Nangangati na akong makalaban ang babaeng iyon. I wonder how did she manage to be in that section. That Lovelace I saw during the enrollment is stronger than her, but I heard that she was in the Gold-A."Good morning, Cassy!" masiglang bati sa akin ni Sapphire. "Good luck mamaya! May the Divine God bless you." Tinanguan ko lang siya dahilan para ngumuso siya. She sat beside me and stared at me. "Ang sungit mo talaga.""I know.""Yo, Cassy!" tawag ni Cristof na kakarating lang. "Do your best later."

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.
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.
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
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
