Crimson pools splattered the grounds of the rainforest. Corpses lying around, unresponsive. Stood alone with a sword dripping and splattering red drops. I was seething red as I watched the scene played as I stood behind a tree that is well hidden amongst the background. Plus, I was not expecting to be seeing Gina here in all of the circumstances. Lord Ethan was going to be so pissed if he realised she was dragged into these scenarios again. Not just Lord Ethan, Astrid, herself would be very angry at this situation. Watching the battle taking place, not interested in interfering unless needed. I just stood there watching them intently. Since the brown hair female lead, Gina, was able to defend herself. I didn’t bother to help. Their sword play was interesting yet what intrigued me more is how and why Zen was there as well.
He let out a sigh of relief as he watched them leave the scene. Now that they’re gone, his finger gave a slight snap and in front appeared two enemy and some lukresian cultist, tied up with plant vines. “Now then, time to interrogate you guys,” he said with a smile, his eyes turning into crescents. Even if he can’t get his answers he will and shall make them answer him. It was final. It was not a fun sight as he used one of the most vicious ways to make them give information to him. Bingo. He got all the information he needed now, proceeding to knock those people out once more. Using his affinity to plants to place them at the most hidden parts of the tall tree. Looks like his theory was correct.
Chapter Ninety-Six She seemed to be a little bit bothered and startled by his presence. While on the damp green grasses were coconut trees, jasmine flowers, and pine trees and it is noticeable that these were taken care of to give shade and offer serenity to the owners of the place. It has a mesmerizing overlooking deep lawns, quiet pool but there are some areas that were not visited over a long period of time. Algaes and some patches of grass discoloration were also over the walls. The house portrays a strong yet quite formal front which faces the road from the side of the metal railings. There is no doubt that the owner of this house is a man. The exterior design has a lot sharp edges mostly in the balcony and it shows masculinity. The flat and slate roof were connected to a disaligned angles that is made to cover the main shape of the house.
Chapter Ninety-Seven I swam as fast as I could up, but the underwater current drew me deeper. My arm, hands, such torso, and leg were slashed by fragments. It hurts, but nothing compares to the pain caused by those around me. I was sick of fighting. My limits have been reached. I'm not going to make it. I coughed and succumbed to the waters as I ran out of air. I used to have a life like this. I was gradually sinking to the bottom. This has to be it. I had no idea how alone I was until a chaotic fusion of excruciating nostalgia overtook my thoughts. I went directly to the bathroom and tried to brush my teeth before she did what she just said. I took a quick look in the mirror, trying to gather all my strength to get through the day. However, all I see is an unkempt 22-year-old woman with medium-length dark brown hair. I'm still tanned from training, but it complements my hazel eyes. I sigh. Lack of sleep also makes it difficult to be presentable, so I hosed down as quickly as I cou
Naguguluhan siya. Bakit parang paulit-ulit niya ang mga pangyayari sa nakalipas na ilang beses? At nakakarinig ng kakaibang beep sa tuwing ipipikit niya ang kanyang mga mata bago matulog. Nakatayo muli sa entablado ng Grand Fran habang hinihiling ng pantas sa kanya na kanselahin ang pagtatanghal para sa Deluna Festival. Parang ika-100 na beses na siyang sinabihan tungkol dito. Wala siyang ideya kung bakit naaalala niya ang lahat ng mga nakaraang pagtatagpo kung hindi niya dapat maalala ang mga ito. Nagpakawala siya ng masamang tingin habang pinagmamasdan ang sage na umalis sa Grand Fran. Ang biglaang mood dito ay nakaramdam ng panlulumo nang makapag-host sila ng Deluna Festival.
It just a far fetched dream. Just like how we long for the sky to hold, we are struck on the ground. Oftentimes, life is just like that. A terrible and never ending cycle of suffering and hardship. I watched as multiple hands emerge in the surface of the blood river, I watch silently as they tried to hold me down. Their nails and fingers digging through my calf. Silent cry is all I could hear, looking down on the river I could see there faceless images. They are crying blood as they try to reach for the surface, as they try to hold the sky on their hands. Pitiful creatures. “Ohoho, what do we have here?,” the man called out across the distance. He was tall, though not as tall as Lord Ethan, and dressed in swathes of black and grey, a loose hood shielding most of his face and hair from sight. “What do you bring here my dear lady? This would be our first time seeing each other.” I look at his direction with changing my expression.
Language is made of rules. The world is governed by rules. Therefore, it follows that the world is language.No mortal can be perfect, they simply weren't created nor were even given the slightest possibility to reach perfection. That was why they were humans, given a lifespan of a hundred years and less to define their life and legacy.That's why they try to covert something that isn't for them. The humans dreams of violet skies, the lush of a forest, and the blooming of alien flora.iThings aren't the same anymore. The once self centered kid is now growing, after seeing her love one come and go she realizes that the world doesn't spin for her. She isn't the main character of this world, after the witnessing the pain, grief, and sadness brought by the passing of one her dearest love one. She realizes that the world revolves on give and take, she's now at the end of the stick, given the pain and some of her happiness been taken away.

Silent cry is all I could hear, looking down on the river I could see there faceless images. They are crying blood as they try to reach for the surface, as they try to hold the sky on their hands. Pitiful creatures. They only yearn for the skies not because they cannot fly but they aren’t satisfied with the surface. Just like how sirens and mermaids yearn for the surface as they aren’t satisfied with the deapth ocean. Every creature is always greedy for something else, something that they don’t have, something they can never have, and something that they already have. This cycle will never end,
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."
