Chapter 42
We walked another few kilometers from where we came from earlier so that we could now cancel the effect of our hiding. I still can’t get my mind off about those creatures. They’re big in size, the tree that we were on shook when they ran. How strong are they, and then why did they get so upset earlier. According to Dralia and Kiloy earlier, the Ogre do not act like that if they are not disturbed in their habitat.
“Maybe now we can put an end of the magic, we are also far away from the kingdom of fairies. Then I don’t think anyone will see us here again.”
“Invalidate the invisible request.” Dralia whispered those words first. When she thought Kiloy was right.
“Invalidate the invisible request.” Simultaneously, we three whispered the terms. And that is it, and we’re slowly getting back to our normal form.
“Can you see me now?” I asked Dralia. When she
Chapter 43I could see Dralia while simply shaking her head on us, as she stood in front of us.“Can you just stand up there, you look like idiots. Have you forgotten what kind of creatures you are?” Dralia is now scolding to us while holding at her waist.Kiloy and I just looked at each other, and immediately stood up. We arranged ourselves right in front of Dralia. I was really just looking at her while still smiling widely.Dralia was still bent over touching her forehead. Immediately she became serious again, due to the arrival of a creature that had caused us to hide under the bed earlier.I was about to step back when Dralia grabbed my hand even if she’s not facing me.“Chief Orbel, why are you here?” my girlfriend said politely to the elderly leader of the Ogre. I notice something on the leader’s face. It has a scar on the face that is like three lines. I can’t figure out if i
Chapter 44When there were only three of us in our room, we heard a sudden crash outside. I was about to peek when Dralia stopped me. She turned to Tonette now, and nodded. It's as if they're talking to each other — they're the only ones who understand each other.“We will leave you here, Kiloy. Make sure Harris is safe.” Kiloy bowed."What's going on?" I'm confused alluding to them. But Dralia did stop me."Take care. As much as possible, never get out of here! Is it clear?”"Clear, Dear Princess." Kiloy responded immediately. He seemed to know what was going on outside, and I was the only one who didn't know.“Whatever is going on. You two be careful.” I just smiled, and nodded the last time I saw Dralia on that occasion. When Tonette looked at me very seriously.It was early in the morning, when Kiloy, and Dralia returned to our room from the gathering. Then the memory of last ni
Chapter 45Dralia just left a farewell letter for Chief Orbel, she gave it to one of the Ogre, and after leaving the letter to it, that was the time we turned our backs on their kingdom. Their fellow Ogre didn’t stop us either.“Dralia, last night I really wanted to know about this, how did the black vampires know that we were in the kingdom of the Ogre?” I inquired curiously.“I think they saw us. Or, it could be, someone had tip off on them as we spend time at the home of our Ogre friends. Moreover, as far as I know, whoever catches me has an associated honor.” Dralia said as she just continue on her walk. While I was behind her with Tonette.“So that is the reason why you decided to just leave there? And maybe it’s not safe there anymore?” she nodded softly. I stared at her at the same time. So that means, she did not say goodbye personally to his friend Ogre, so that it would not stop he
Chapter 46 “You don’t have anything to apologize for. I also don’t care how you feel, so I also have shortcomings. The reason why I avoided you earlier is that I was ashamed of you. It slipped out from my mind that I had told you that. So I have decided that we will start your training tomorrow.” Both my eyes widened, how it could be, she was able to say that to me, when in fact I was the one who said something wrong to her before. No matter when it’s Dralia, even if she’s not wrong, she still admits she was wrong.I held both of her hands, then we folded our fingers.“How about like this, we both have shortcomings and mistakes, it’s like we’re all equal.” We both know that no one will admit defeat from both of us when it comes to this issue.“You do know me,”“Of course, are you still now
Chapter 47And now all I can hear is her slowly by slowly snoring. It seems like she have fallen asleep considering the fact that the breeze here is cold which is coming from these towering trees. Not to mention the fresh sounds coming from the rushing flow of the water from the river, it seemed like a music to the ears, and that was probably the reason why Tonette feels like she was being swayed to sleep.“Harri---.”“Sshh…” I blocked my index finger to my lips as a signal to tell her not to make any noise, due to the fact that her sister was now already in deep sleep.“I’m sorry, what happened to her, and it seemed like she was sound asleep?” She asked using her low voice.“We’ve been talking for a while earlier, when all of a sudden she’s now snoring.” I slowly stood up. She didn’t seemed to wake up so I kept on walking as I move closer towards Dralia
Chapter 48The last thing I remembered was that I was struggling to get out from the rushing waters of the river, and all I knew was that I was drowning at that moment, and because of that recovered memory, I immediately got up and to my surprise, all I could get a glimpse of are these unknown creatures that were boxing me in right now. They seemed to look like paintings hanged on the ceiling of a very tall museum owing to the fact that the gap between their faces and of me was so up close.When I was able to stand permanently from the bed where I was lying earlier, I immediately took a look at it and then I figured out that it was just a long rock with corals being decorated on its sides, and with large clams also that serve as the headboard of this simple bed. I did never ever really form a mental picture of this kind of bed that would really exist, and that I would be given the chance to see something like this out of the ordinary in my whole life.
Chapter 49We now continued our training, even though I came from an unexpected event. It is almost the end of the day, I am now slowly learning already what the three of them were teaching me. And I am on cloud nine exceedingly considering that no matter how hard those things they were insisting for me to do, as luck would have it I am able to quickly pass through their trials. Especially the trick on how to make some things moved.“You’re now really good at it, Brother Harris. I am amazed on how fast you learned it.” Tonette jumped up and down while saying those compliments.“Of course, those who taught me were also excellent on it, especially to the special person for me who inspired me to do all the training.” I said passionately, while just staring at Dralia whose cheeks are now red.“Hey, my sister, you are blushing.” Tonette even tease
Chapter 50I really thought that we would be able to speed up our journey, given the fact that I already knew how to perform the abilities of a vampire. But here we are, we are still traveling in the middle of the rushing flow of water in the river. We almost slipped on the road we took. When in fact we can just jump up on every tree we cross along the path.“Dralia, is there really no other way we can think of as an alternative path?” I can’t keep to myself the question that’s bothering my mind right now.“Are you afraid of the rushing water in the river?” I stand properly. When she suddenly took one of my hands, and wrapped it around to her fingers.“It is not that, I’m just confused about what is the use of our training and all you have been teaching to me if we don’t use it now? We would rather get our feet wet than jump over every rock or tree we pass, wouldn’t we?” I
Chapter 78We lost sight of the strange cloud we saw earlier, and instead of looking for that strange cloud, we just ignored it in the end, seeing that if we choose our curiosity over our mission, it might slow down our journey. Curiosity kills, as others would say. We just tell and make ourselves believe that maybe that strange cloud we saw just does not exist for real. Or maybe we did not see it in a clear view. What’s important now is our mission, nothing else would matter most. And maybe the three of us just see it as something unusual but not in the actual.“Won’t you still stop waiting for that strange cloud to come out again, Brother Harris, and Kiloy? Because if you’ll ask me if I were you, just don’t bother to disturb that cloud anymore. It is a waste of our time. Your curiosity will slow us down. That may just want our attention. And it is unworthy for real. Let’s just leave it l
Chapter 77We now continued our journey, left the river after we already satisfied our thirst, and then walked and walked to where our feet would take us. We don’t want to waste our time, since Dralia, and the whole palace including the whole vampire race needs us now. I’m just worried now on this walk of ours, what if we meet some other kingdoms again? How can we explain to them that we are not adversaries?That we don’t have any single intention to harm them and their entire kind? What if we meet some obstacles or challenges along the way that will slow down our pace? What if something will happen to us while we are busy completing our mission and do not care anymore about our safety? I have these thousands of what-ifs in my mind, but I am motivating myself to do my best through this journey, and finishing it successfully will be great.It would be nice if Dralia was given a choice to be with us right now because we did
Chapter 76We don’t have any slightest idea of where we are now, but given that we already feel tired, it only means that we are already far from where we came from, which is the palace, and we, in that far just by running and jumping as quickly as possible. Our tiredness is like killing us slowly, that is why we stopped and rested for the meantime. We need to rest of course especially that we had to use our energy that much to quickly get out from the palace unnoticed by the black vampires.It is not an easy task to do since vampires have a strong smell. That means it can smell anything, everything. You name it. This is the right timing for us to rest since the morning already arrived and we are still running and jumping around not noticing it. It slipped out from our minds since we don’t care anymore if the morning reached us. All we think about is how to get out, continue the journey even with Dralia not around unlike the usual, and most
Chapter 75How long have we been here inside the CR, just staying inside and waiting for Dralia to permit us to at least show ourselves but Tonette still doesn’t let us out. I am now even more confused about what was happening right now. What’s going on outside and why doesn’t she let us out? What is it, for real? Is Dralia still safe?Where are Tita Delia and Sir Dracu? Why are we hiding like this as if someone had just arrived and does not want to see us? I hope Kiloy and I hurried to use the bathroom earlier, it may be possible that we can still have a chance to witness or at least had a peek with the incident right at this moment outside. And maybe I could be of help just in case something bad happened outside. I just hope Dralia and her parents are still outside safe and sound.And I just hope this hiding will end in no time for I am very worried about Dralia now and wanted to see her in an instant with my two eyes.
Chapter 74We made the most out of the few hours we could spend with Dralia’s parents since we only have limited time now. The full moon is fast approaching and we should continue our journey to Del Mundo Mountains again so we could reach there right on time. As well as we still can plan our next move upon reaching there. We should hurry before it is too late. All the fellow vampires hope that we could do our mission successfully and we could save everyone, even humans from bad vampires as well.To make our stay more memorable since we only have a little time left to stay here, we had a celebration in which Dralia first informed us of the reason why we held this kind of celebration and her parents agreed to prepare for everyone. This celebration symbolizes hope for everyone that we could make it and finish our mission right on time, and a reminder to us that they trust us and we should try our best to fulfill our mission for them. It is like a fa
Chapter 73There was a sudden knock on the door. That unexpected knock made us quickly arranged ourselves properly before we answered who knocked on the door and found out who was waiting outside. After the door opened, that was the only time we had come to realize that we didn’t lock it earlier the moment we entered the room.That made my heartbeat raised faster than the actual upon realizing that we were just as calm as it was, not knowing or making sure of locking the door in the first place before doing something that would be embarrassing for the both of us if ever someone of their family, like one of her parents or maybe Tonette, who would be caught us doing awkward thing inside. We were both very careless.How idiot we were. But we didn’t blame ourselves to the fullest since we did not plan of doing it in the first place. It was just an accident for real. We were just being drowned in our emotions and that ma
Chapter 72After Tonette and I talked last night about what I had dreamed, I left her in the living room after I asked her permission to leave first, since there was nothing else to talk about and I had already collected information that I could connect piece by piece to come up a solid explanation about my dream, if it was for real or just a dream at all. There is still a part of me that wants to just keep in myself about what’s inside of my dream that night. I am half bothered but I don’t want to believe that what’s in my dream could possibly happen because I don’t what will I do or what can I do if ever. Dralia and I also talked about what happened last night. I did not have a second thought anymore on telling her about it and asking her some questions because I really wanted to know the whole truth. I told her how I felt after that dream and it never left my mind since. I have the right to know how Dralia feels about being forced by t
Chapter 71When Kiloy cried all of a sudden, he said something that opened my eyes. He seems to have mentioned the incident last night.“I’ll read it tonight, I hope there’s no noise later, just so I don’t wake up anymore or be disturb.” He said that comfortably, it seemed like he just didn’t care to say that.“What’s that again, Kiloy?” it would have been appropriate for him to leave when I stopped him.“Huh? Why Harris? ” he looked at me in surprise.“You said there was a noise last night,” I repeat I am probably very desperate to listen now, because of my question to Kiloy.Earlier I asked Tonette, now I ask Kiloy. Maybe I shouldn’t ask them about that anymore.“Ahh, it doesn’t matter, then it’s not imp ---.” I stopped speaking when he answered my question. I thought he would ignore my question to him.
Chapter 70I am now sitting by myself in the living room, and at the same time reading the books from under the table. I was just seriously reading something I didn’t even mind about the surroundings when the chair I was sitting on all of a sudden moved on its own. I was startled knowing that I am just alone in here, but why all of a sudden my chair moved even if I didn’t move it myself personally.“ Brother Harris?” I dropped the book because of shock when I realized Tonette was now by my side in an instant. It double my heartbeat upon realizing how Tonette just emerge that quickly and out of nowhere like a wild mushroom without me expecting or just sensing it myself. I tried to fix myself and asked her why went here unannounced. “W-What are you doing here?” Even if I am still startled by the thought of her being with me now
