Morning have finally arrived. I am now standing outside looking at busy the Manor. I saw a lot of maids working and running around. I can also see Rita checking everything from the suit cases, utensils, foods, and essentials. Sa pagkaka-alam ko ay we would be traveling and would camp in the mountain for 3 days, until we get on the nearest village for a stop and rest. We will then continue until we reach the House Edwards’ territory. I’m pretty excited to see what’s on the southeast region of Avalor Kingdom. I’m pretty curious about Lady Marina’s hometown. I slowly walked through the carriage na kakaiba ang ekspresyon. I blankly stared at the piece of object in front of, ako’y naka tanga lamang habang nakatayo sa harap ng karwahe na maghahatid saakin. That’s not a freaking carriage! That’s a mini van!!! I screamed in my heart. The carriage design looks like between a carriage and car! It has freaking six big wheels! Parang ang design nito ay yung nakikita ko sa mga video abo
Chapter Fifty-Two. A vortex of shadow and darkness formed on the ground under my two hands. It suddenly spread on and rose from the depths. A dome made of darkness and shadow was formed, shielding everyone inside. It was a large area of effect shield that I have learned and practice. I just twisted some of the incantation spell to fully bring the element darkness. Everyone was shocked and was stunned when they were covered in darkness and shadow. And it’s because that my control wasn’t that precise, the shield isn’t tempered. You can see from the inside what was happening outside the dome, it was somewhat transparent and not tinted. All of them saw hundreds of arrows that was either stuck on the dome, or bounce out and fell from the impact. Their mouth was hang open and gulped a mouthful of saliva before looking at my direction. “Tsk.” I heard a click of tongue coming from the Bandit leader. I glared at him and look around the dome. When I still saw them looking at in astoni
Chapter Fifty-Three. The weather in the second half of the Month of Fire (July) was already very hot. Patuloy na tumutulo ang mga butil ng pawis sa mukha ni Zen habang binabantayan niya ang bawat panig ng coach. Not to mention Vice Captain and the knight troupes, na basang-basa ang shirt sa loob ng armor. Vice Captain Illiad, walking ahead of the coach, had already driven away several beasts rushing down from the mountains. We didn’t encounter any bandits on the way, only some creatures. Ito ay malinaw na responsibilidad niya bilang isang bantay, but the fact that he beat off the vicious beasts without startling the horses definitely impressed me Inside of the coach, since I kept my eyes closed all the time, and Rita was not talkative at all, so as Droon who had no one to talk to the trip went very quite. I’m not that nervous nor scared after what happened. Surprisingly, I’m very calm and is analyzing the bandits intention. Lalo akong nagulat sa sarili ko, na hindi ako nanginginig
Chapter Fifty-Four. I stared at the kid in front of me, who was looking at me with doe eyes. Doon ko lang napansin na hindi na niya suot ang kanyang pilak na baluti, instead his wearing his ordinary knight uniform. I cannot see any bruises nor bandages around him. That only means he was skilled enough to avoid or kill his enemies. I’m also relief seeing him unharmed, for pete’s sake that’s twelve-year old kid! My conscience won’t be able to take it. I might feel a little bit guilty for Zen dahil sa unexpected ambush ng mga bandito, but he’s an adult. Kaya na niya sarili, hindi na siya bata. And I have deep affection on this character. Aside from Lord Ethan and Gina who was the main character, this is the third person I knew who was part of the novel. It made me slightly relax and breathe a sigh of relief. Staying in this world almost made me lost in time and comfort. I even caught myself doubting if I was really in the book. I almost got scared because of the unknown but thanks
Chapter Fifty-Five.“Do you understand, Sir?” I said in a sweet tone, with a smile on my lips.Gulp.You could hear a mouthful of saliva being swallow."Now, shall we talk?" I said, as I lowered the dagger and smile.The dwarf still keep his glare on me but didn’t refused. Ang ibang mga preso naman ay tahimik, nakayuko at umiiwas ng tingin. Some of them was sweating in abnormal rate.As if they where afraid to meet with my beautiful red-violet eyes.Magsasalita pa sana ako nang may naramdaman akong matinding titig na nagmumula sa likod ko. Ito ay napakatindi na halos maramdaman ko na ang isang mainit na laser na parang bubutas sa aking likod. It give the chills kahit mainit dapat.Now all of us is sweating in cold feet.Dang.I forgot about Zen.Napatingin ako sa punyal na hawak-hawak ko. It was very shiny, meanwhile the handle was made out of obsidian rock. Darker than black.The metal could almost reflect my pretty face if not for the dark expression on the other side.Gulped.‘Some
Chapter Fifty-Six. “I’m here to buy a Migfa Wine and Iris steak.” I repeated. “Hahaha! Migfa wine… narinig ninyo yun? Migfa wine!” A drunkard nearby laughed aloud, I just maintained my smile and look at the tavern owner. "Mga inosente, walang muwang! Pareho ba kayong tanga?" At nagsimulang tumawa ang lahat ng tao sa tavern. Zen remained very calm as if nothing was going on there. He was just looking at the owner. When the owner saw us calm and was not agitated. He gradually breath a sigh and tried to smile. Asking for a migfa wine was a secret code that the underground black market have come up to avoid the law enforcers and the churches. Black Market is always present everywhere you go, not just because you haven’t seen them nor know their existence, they are not active. How did I know this code and information? I got it from Margo, the dwarf. Ang sabi niya, most of the things and weapons they have made was sold to the black market. But that’s not I’m looking at. I need in
Chapter Fifty-Seven. "Nandito na ang iyong Migfa Wine." The tavern owner announced. He took the Migfa Wine from the kitchen staff and handed it towards us. Before I could reach the wine bottle, Zen beat me from getting it. He tool the wine bottle the tavern owners hand and look at me. Beautiful emerald eyes were stern and full of vigilance. Okay fine. Chill ka lang Zen. You don't need to be so tense and serious. I know we really need to get out of this place. Zen was eager to leave this place, and I understand that. "We will be taking our leave now." I said as I stood up. The unfinished dishes were sitting pretty at the counter table. I took out a Nar and slammed it at the counter. “Hik!” The tavern owner could not help but flinched and be surprise by the loud sound. “Thank you for the wonderful steak,” I smile and said my thanks. Truly, it was such a good steak. For a shabby looking tavern, they have good foods. Zen held the wine bottle firmly and put it closed to his body
Chapter Fifty-Eight. After the short food tasting across the market place. We found ourselves to a pigeon loft. Outside was covered with different birds in different cages. "Anong ginagawa natin dito? Bibili ka ng ibon?" Zen could help but ask in confusion. I laughed and shool my head. "No. I am here deliver a letter to a..." bigla akong napatigil sa pagsasalita dahil I cannot find the right word. "To a?" Zen repeated. Wait Zen, let me think the right word first. Should I call Hilbert a friend? But do we have the same views of each other? He might not see me as friend but a business partner. Well, both us know we are at the same page. Profits and benefits are the reason why we in contact. A partner in business. I smile and said, "to a business partner and friend." Dahil feelingera at assuming akong tao, I will address him as a friend. And it's not like Zen know who Hilbert is. Di ako mapapahiya sa pagiging assumera ko dahil ito malalaman ni Hilbert. Zen nodded and pointed th
Special Chapter. The smell of salty air invaded my nose and lungs, looking at horizon as the sun began to rise it was filled with sparkling diamonds. The sea was something I haven’t seen in my life. My eyes wavered at the site of the port. It was bustling with people and vendors, many dork workers are moving left and right. Ako ay napabuntong hininga at nag simulang mag lakad habang hawak ko ang aking suit case. There was a wooden notice board on the entrance of harbor, naglakad ako papunta doon upang mabasa ito. “Things to take note: “1. Maintain order. Lines are strictly enforced; “2. Do not urinate or defecate, as well as spitting; “3. Find the guard in the lobby if there is a dispute; It was just some guidelines. I just casually glanced at the board and move forward. I’m looking for a ticket company, I have already my identifications and the papers that I need. Dahan-dahan lang ako naglalakad dahil hindi naman ako nagmamadali, hinihintay ko rin ang aking mga kasama. Nauna
Epilogue (Ⅰ) “You are?” Marina was confused, all she was seeing is a beautiful garden. Flourished plants and blooming flowers. She could also see a lot of healthy animals. The whole place was so refreshing and warm, full of life. The figure was sitting close to a pond, its back facing her. Marina took one single step, trying to see or observe who it is. The said figure looks like a woman, her chestnut hair was wavy, and she has a flower crown on her head. The woman turned her head in her direction and offer a warm smile. ‘Mother’ That was the first thing that appeared on Marina’s mind. The woman in front of her stirred something inside her, a fuzzy and warm feeling like a mother looking fondly at her child. She felt calm even though she’s facing a stranger. ‘A goddess’ The second thing she thought. The woman’s beauty was incomprehensible, making words lose its meaning. “Who are you?” Marina asked, eyes abnormally calm, and her heart feels more alive. The woman smiled at her
Quietly, the warm golden glow appeared before them. " Oh my.."He approached and as he glared at the woman, his eyes grew angry. He knelt next to her and put his hands on the vile bite marks on her skin. Everywhere is his.When hands were in contact, a golden glow was left, and when it vanished, just healed flesh was left.The memories are what causes a sudden goosebumps and her resolve, so I cannot take them away," he then remarked softly.In his work. With nothing to cling to, perhaps you would have turned into that as well if I had forced you to forget her.His lip crinkled. "Thus, you abandon her painful memories."No. Leaving her sets me in to confusion I still have not decided with." Men struggle to find items. We wake up. Also, we will.She knelt at the woman's side and stroked her blood-stained hand hair before turning to face the woman who was lying on the ground, promising that everything would be alright.Oh, she aches, I can hear the lace crunching. How could he explain th
There she was, a lady, with beautiful blonde hair, tied up with a teal bow, was sitting down at her desk, writing up some paper work on her table. "Are you not afraid?" I asked as i look outside the window.The movement of her pen came into halt. She didn't say anything as she lifted her head to look at me.

“Ah…” My footsteps slowly halted as I reach the top of the cliff. The view that I saw what was in front of me was something I couldn’t express properly. Warmth greeted my face as bright red and orange lights filled my face. So this is what they mean. Is this freedom? I watch as the Capital was set into blaze. Screams and cries could be heard, I watch as they slowly fell from their feet. I lifted my head just to see a giant creature hovering the Capital. I have only heard it from the myths and stories, I have never thought I would be able to see one in my very own eyes. “Ah…” My footsteps slowly halted as I reach the top of the cliff.

I believe that there’s only a thin line that separates genius and madness. Now I’m starting believe that between humanity and divinity there’s only a short line that separates them. How funny it is. When I want to look back I always thought there’s a big gap between them. I always though that if there’s a thin that would separate something, it would be good and evil. A shame really. Under the pale moonlight, a long braid of silver hair, decorated with vibrant flowers. Calm and collected could be observe from her face, she was looking at the bouquet of floras on her hands. Eyes strained with gentleness and love. So, this is the Saintess of the Earth Mother’s church. For her to descend directly, it only means one thing. Something will bloom or something will wither, just like a flower and plant. “I greet the Saintess of Earth Mother’s Church.” I believe that there’s only a thin line that separates genius and madness. Now I’m starting believe that between humanity and divinity the
“I think there is no need to exchange pleasantries.” I stated as I stared coldly his deep ocean blue eyes. His expression came into somewhat hurt, even though I could be just be wrong on interpreting his emotion. It might be the case, he wasn’t that expressive to begin with. This could be another scheme, wanting to gain my sympathy. “My Lady, please listen to me.” He begged. His voice trembling in sorrow. “It’s rather pathetic to force a conversation for just the other one to listen on a bullshit explanation.” I said without much thought about cursing him. Etiquette doesn’t apply on people I don’t deem to be respected. “We don’t need to talk, I don’t need to listen, we should just end it here. I find it pathetic to engage on a conversation just to occupy this silence.” “I think there is no need to exchange pleasantries.” I stated as I stared coldly his deep ocean blue eyes. His expression came into somewhat hurt, even though I could be just be wrong on interpreting his emotion.
Whatever the churches were brewing behind the scenes, it looks like the kingdom’s future is going to be a dark and horrific one. The possibility of war coming to sweep this kingdom is in a huge margin. I took a sip of my black marque tea as I pounder on what should I do. If a war brakes out, I should know what type of war is it. I noticed his face twitch in my peripheral vision. I love seeing him suffer while forcing himself to smile.himself to refrain from retaliation He looked at me helplessly "You need to look for a maid there.as presentable as you currently appear disgusting" "Act like a normal human being there, and please do not touch my older brother," he said.Stoic tone."Please copy that."
