George who was picking up broken eggshells was suddenly stunned and finally came to his senses. He looked at the girl Jevro and I were talking to and quickly put what he picked up in the small trashcan. He came closer to us and looked back and forth between me and the child."Just agree to it, Yohan. As far as I know, Phoenixes are capable of protecting themselves even when they're young. Besides, I won't let your child go." George said while ruffling the girl's hair."Pfft!" It was Jevro. "You heard what your uncle said. He will take care of our daughter. Lets just give her a name." It was obvious that Jevro was teasing me based on the tone of his voice.But I was not focusing to his teasing. I seriously looked at the girl and asked. "Are you of the Huluwa race?"To my surprise, the girl's eyes suddenly lit up. You can see the anger in the expression on her face. Her neck suddenly had blue feathers that was also flaming."There are Huluwa in this world Daddy?! Tell me where they are,
I don't know why Jevro and I took separate seats inside the plane. Next to me is the vice-president of the monsters department. Well, I didn't know that he was the vice-president because I never saw him in the office. And one more thing, according to Jevro, the vice-president always with the higher ups. He is the one who delivers the reports and he is also the one who tells Alfonso the orders of the Superiors."I forgot your name, what is your name again?" I turned to my right side when I heard the question from the Malemyn next to me.I was between the vice-president and a Malemyn whose name I do not know. But I have also seen him several times inside the monsters department building. If I'm not mistaken, this Malemyn has the power of Gluttony. The power that eats its prey and leaves nothing but its blood scents. "Yohan.." I sparingly answered him.I don't plan to talk right now because my attention is on Jevro. Why is Rowan next to him? What if before we reach our destination, Jev
"This is your temporary room for one week of staying in the US monster department. All the necessities that each of you needed, will be provided by our department. But of course, some personal needs will be out of our concerns." The one who is talking is the assigned staff of the US monsters department. Even though I honestly forgot his name, I can guarantee that this guy is quite friendly. And because Jevro stated that we have to be in one room, I am with him. The US monsters department is bigger than the Philippines's. It's not surprising since the America is the third-largest country by both land and total area. And according to the national information, America is surrounded by lots and lots of monsters dungeon. "And if you need anything else, please press the button installed in your table. I will come to assist you. By any chance, is your room, to your liking?" The man asked Jevro. "It's perfect, Thanks." I heard Jevro answered. From the airport to this place, I wouldn't
"Oh?" Jevro raised his eyebrows as he looked back at me. "Comfortable healing.. I see! Maybe that's the reason why Devaugn almost doesn't want to leave you when you carry her."I let out a sigh before touching my head. Although I feel a bit comfortable because I know that Jevro doesn't know the truth yet, I still have to be careful just in case. My secondary awakening is like an error in an online game. And when the developer discovers it, it'll be my ending."Who is Devaugn?"Clewin's question literally made me look up. Jevro also flinched as he barely blinked. How can we say that Devaugn is our adopted daughter, although it is not legal yet."Tch! You have so many questions. Why are you looking for Yohan? How did you know we were here?"Jevro's normally cold voice made Clewin pale again. Why did I lose sight of the real situation? How did Clewin know where Jevro and I were, when no one saw us when we left the building?"Eh? Brother Jevro, my room is there. I saw you two from up ther
"Can we sit here?"We simultaneously turned to the source of that voice. A Korean woman approached our table with a tray of food. Behind her, were two other Koreans like her who were also carrying trays of food. Everyone knows that Gwandys were sent by Korea for the Raid. So the three of us also knew that we were facing Gwandys."Sure! Please take a seat! My name is Clewin, what is your name?"Clewin stood up first and greeted the three. Jevro suddenly became quiet, while I continued to eat. I stopped taking a bite when I felt the stare being thrown at me. I straightened up my back as I placed down my spoon."What's wrong, brother Yohan?" Clewin asked me.The three Gwandys also looked at me without answering Clewin. "Nothing, I just remembered that I have to call my uncle tonight.""I almost forgot, I also have to call our daughter tonight."Not only the four people in front of me turned to Jevro. I also did. I don't know if I will be annoyed or laugh because of the reaction of the fo
When the superiors got out of the wide dining hall, Jevro and I didn't stay inside and decided to go out. Clewin also quickly followed us while the three Korean Gwandys left because their companions were still there. The conflict that happened earlier was like a bubble that suddenly disappeared into thin air. Jevro didn't even think of talking to the representatives of India."Brother Yohan, are you going straight to your room?" Clewin asked as we walked down the hallway of the hotel."Yes I am. Im not sure about Jevro. I need to call the Philippines to see how the two people at home are doing." I answered him while focusing my attention on the cellphone I was holding."I said earlier, we have to call our little daughter. We promised to call her when we get to the US." Jevro answered while continuing to walk."Are you really going to continue your joke earlier, brother Jevro?""But I'm not joking earlier?"I did not join the conversation between the two. I'm busy contacting the Philip
The meager flame on Jevro's fingertip became huge. The evil smile on his face got more fierce. Other than that, he came closer to the doppelganger's place and placed his burning hand under it. The man floating in the air keeps struggling and even starts kicking his feet.As I watched the start of Jevro's evil torture on the insider, I noticed that something was wrong with the situation. Lets say that the doppelganger is trying to get out of my trap, but I can't see that he is really serious about wanting to get out. Why does it feel like, he is just waiting for Jevro to burn him?"Tell us, why did you come here?" Jevro started asking questions.However, like what he just said a while ago, the doppelganger can't talk. Jevro moved his head to look for a paper and a pen, while I was just observing them. I saw the doppelganger stop struggling slightly. I don't know what this awakened power can do but i can tell that, the owner of this doppelganger has a mission.I saw Jevro approach it ag
Everyone is out and there's only me and Jevro left in our room. I don't know how did it happen since I'm honestly out of my mind right now. The fact that Jevro knows my secrets is bothering me too much. My question is since when? Since when did he know that I was the one who helped him during his fight with Hruon? Since when did he know that I also the one who helped him recovered from his injuries? Aside from that, why didn't he confront me about it? Is he waiting for me to tell him everything? Or he's not yet certain about those facts? "What are you spacing out about?" I heard him talking to me but I still not answering. Tomorrow will be the day of our final training. And before it begin, we have to be tested with Gwandys to find our suitable match. And our perfect match will accompany us to do the raid. I'm honestly feel anxious right now. Back in the Philippines, I never been tested for matching."Thinking of how did I know?" Again, Jevro spoke. I finally move my head to loo
If not for the person who bursted in, I was ready to use my ability to strike Jevro. Fortunately, someone stopped me or else, it'll be bloody. Just kidding, well, sort of. But anyway, the one who forced to open the door was our daughter, Devaugn. "Dad! What are you doing to Mom?" She's asking Jevro who is actually still behind me. "Nothing serious. I was actually checking his body if he was perfectly healed." The bastard let go of me slowly. "You're doubting my ability? Dad, I'm maybe a child but my ability of healing is above the average of what you think it is. Sigh.. Come down with me. Grandpa Alfonso is calling both of you.." Devaugn then turned around and left us amazed. Well, why we would not be? Who would have thought that our little girl acted like a woman while talking with us? She's still young and have not yet been stepped on the maturity stage. Furthermore, if we think back of when she just got out of her egg, I might say, she's only 4 to 6 years old, if I remember c
I panicked when Jevro raised up the hem of my hospital dress. I literally struggled to fucking save my own virgin cherry! Just kidding. But yeah, I really panicked and I struggle to free myself but I stopped. Because I saw him getting serious and his hands are shaking a bit. Is he perhaps nervous? Scared? Dunno, but I all I know is that, he's afraid to see what's underneath my dress. So I sighed and relax my body. I then used my power to untie me. "D-Dont move." Jevro commanded me using his soft voice. I didn't make a move. I just watched him gently touching my chest, down to my stomach. He then gulped and gently lowered his head to nuzzle in my chest. "Thank God, there's no scar." He whispered. Jevro is still shaking and I just stayed quiet. Not until I felt something wet on my chest. I then saw his shoulders moved. He's crying? "Are you crying?" I asked. But he didn't reply. He just stayed in his position with his hands on my chest. I, on the other hand, couldn't help but mov
Outside the building, everyone is on their knees on the floor. Unable to breathe due to the enormous amount of power from the intruders. Unbelievable, even they are on that state, their redo is still calm as if it was sealed. But because of the powerful energy above them, lifting a finger is also difficult for them. Then an ear destroying trill worsened the situation. Those lower level malemyns cough with blood. The gwandys writhing in pain as if they were stabbed by million needles. They are in that situation when I finally got out of the building. I'm still holding Jevro's hand while Ailestair and Alfonso are holding Devaugn's. The rest are following us even though they are having difficulties in breathing. Just as I stepped on the concrete floor, I raised up my head and look up the 3 huge visitors resting on the top floor of the building owned by American Monster's Department. One creature are spreading its wide wings which can easily covered the whole football gymnasium. So ma
Jevro look at me doubting. I can feel it and I'm a lil bit worried about it. Why not? If I tell him that I am planning to go to war with Devaughn's help, I'm sure he'll chain me and locked me up. If he finally regained his memories back in Terra Crevasse. "What are you guys talking about? Let's hurry so we can go back to the Monsters Department." We both look at Alistair who are approaching us. He looks seriously tired and his eyes are trembling. I think he's hiding his fear for others not to worry. "Yeah.. We have to go back now, indeed. Because I need to speak with the Chairman." I answered. "Are you also going to tell him the second power you hold?" "What power?" I asked. I know he's now doubting me but I still can't disclose my second awakening to him. "Aren't you the one who comforted us a while ago?" Alistair tilted his head. I scoffed. "You've mistaken me for someone else. The one who comforted your Redo was not me but my Daughter. She was also the one who healed me."
How can't I be worried about the situation we are all in? If my assumptions are correct, then the reason why we are in this hell is because of me. But wait, if it's indeed because of me, then from the beginning before the mana stone broke through the barrier, I already have the core? And the mana stone woken up it's power as it's generator? No. There's still some questions on my mind. Something that is troubling me so much and the only person who can answer it, is in the Holy See. I have to go there to know the truth. "I didn't say I have the core. Are you worried about me, just in case?" I asked Jevro who still gripping my shoulders so tightly. He squinted his eyes and even gritted his jaws. And before I knew it, he was biting my shoulder out of irritation. A hissss sound out of my mouth but I didn't say anything. I know this action of his, to be precise, I'm used to it back when we were in Terra Crevasse. Now I'm certain, he finally remembered his past life. "Let's talk after e
Everyone jolted when we suddenly heard a sound from incoming helicopter. I secretly praised the one who sent it to our location for helping me not to answer questions from Jevro. This is not the perfect time for such conversation. By the way, unfortunately, the helicopter that we've just heard, didn't take long to landing on the ground. I move my eyes to my surroundings and saw Devaugn on her human form. The Creftus is no longer can be seen and the other two monsters are both lying on the ground, dead. "We have to speak with Chairman Frost to allow us to go to the Holy See. If this mantis is indeed from the temple, and his father is the one who is now holding the title of the Pope, then that's mean, the real Pope is still alive." Automatically, I return my gaze to Alistair when he spoke. "That's possible but, if we suddenly go there without preparations, it'll be our loss." Jevro answered. "I know that. We forgot to ask the mantis if how many Huluwas are there in the temple. That
To my surprise, Jevro pulled me and hug me tightly. He's mumbling something which I couldn't understand due to Clewin's crying. I also noticed the bruises on his arms and legs. My eyes squint when I sensed an evil glare from someone. And when I moved my eyes to find whoever was it, I see the girl in red slowly getting up from kneeling. If her eyes has blades, I would be sliced in half. "Who are you?" She's asking me using her deep and cold voice. "An awakened." I answered. "Huh! Are you taking me as a fool? I know you're an awakened. But I'm asking, who are you? Why can't I sense the black crystal in you?" Black Crystal, is she talking about the Redo? If so, then that means, I was right. The Redo can possibly be removed from all awakened. But, what if there's a side effect after removing it? And one more thing, why wasn't it destroyed when the Malemyns touched the Mana crystal? "Black Crystal? What's that?" I need to confirm something that's why I asked her. "Brother Yohan,
Back in year 2020's, according to the history of the world. I read that, people once believed that their Governments are protecting, and helping them. And even some are seeing something unusual, they either became missing or found dead. It's quite bothersome but since then, according to the book, people turned a blind eye to the truth. Not until the universal war began. When Astorians attacked humans and tried to conquer the world. Let's say that almost 3/4 of humans in the world died in that war. However, the story of how the people survived, never mentioned in that book. Since then, I hate to hear that our supposed to be Leaders, are still trying to hide the fact from people. "Mr. Sifyola, I honestly hate your words. I hope you never say that again." Mr. Frost said with cold expression on his face. I sneered. "Hate? My words? Why? Does it scratch the wound? You know what, whether you like it or not, I will tell the people about this. And you, you can't do anything to stop me."
What happened last night. When Devaugn entered the room where the unconscious Yohan was lying, the hospital staff almost fainted as she forced herself to release her powerful aura punk of anger and sadness for her recognized Mother. She couldn't accept that the man who gave her life while she was inside her eggshell was now lying in a hospital bed, bleeding, and showing no signs of being alive."Sweetie, retract your aura please. These people here also want to help you." Since George is not an awakened, he is not affected by the pressure released by Devaugn."I don't need anyone's help. They'd better get out of this room, before I run out of patience." Cold and full of emotional statements of a young teenager.George glanced at the people standing outside the door. After a while, he signaled to Alfonso to follow their grandson's instructions. Alfonso quickly obeyed and helped the Chairman of the American Monsters Department away from the room.If at first the old Chairman was just qu
