31.5: Tricked
CHAPTER 31.5
TrickedTHEY KNEW THAT IT’D be difficult to go past through all the traps that King Morfran prepared. Sure, there were no puzzles but the fact that each trap were intricately placed so that they won’t notice them immediately is uncanny. It’s unlikely that King Morfran would be this cautious to the point that everything was prepared with excellent precision. All traps were made to either decrease their numbers or kill Selene for good and fortunately, none of these traps had succeeded.“Walang susuko! Ito pa lamang ang simula at sigurado akong sinusubok lamang tayo ni Haring Morfran!” sigaw ni Merlin noong oras na tila ba pagod na pagod na silang magmatyag sa paligid at maging alerto.Hindi naman normal na agad mapagod sina Lucas pero sa mga oras na ito, parang isang malaking parusa na tignan ang buong paligid bago sila gumawa ng kilos. Not only that the traps are holding them bacKaugnay na kabanata
Blood and Roses 32.1: Fall and Make Up
CHAPTER 32.1 Fall and Make Up NOONG ORAS NA magising si Selene, awtomatikong rumehistro sa kanya ang pananakit ng ulo mula sa pagbagsak. Mahina siyang napamura dahil hindi niya inaasahang dahil kinabahan siya sa paglapit ni Lucas sa kanya kanina’y may mangyayari sa kanyang hindi maganda. Sa kasamaang palad, huli na noong napagtanto niyang nahulog siya sa patibong na sinet-up ni Haring Morfran at hindi siya agad na maililigtas. At first, she thought that she’s done for. She’ll fall to a place she’s unfamiliar of and she might meet her doom since she’ll be out here alone. Hindi niya lubos maisip kung anong posibleng gawin sa kanya ni Haring Morfran sa oras na malaman nitong nahulog siya sa patibong nito. Paano kung pahirapan pala siya at i-torture hanggang sa katawan mismo niya ang bumigay? It scares her to die miserably. But then, she has a vague recollection that someone jumped from the sam
Blood and Roses 32.2: Unanswered Questions
CHAPTER 32.2Unanswered Questions NATATARANTANG PABALIK-BALIK ng lakad sina Sir Lyte at Sir Sephare magmula nang mawala’t mahulog sa dug trap sina Prinsesa Selene at Prinsipe Lucas samantalang si Merlin, pagod namang pinanonood ang mga ito. Halos sampung minuto na nang mawala sa mga paningin nila ang dalawa at kahit na lihim ding natataranta si Merlin lalo na’t alam niyang dalawa lamang ang mga ito sa kung saan tapos hindi nila alam kung sino ang posibleng makaharap ng mga ito, pinipilit niyang pakalmahin ang sarili. ‘They’re not weak. They can protect and defend themselves just fine.’ This was the thought that kept on spiraling inside his head. It’s like a broken tape, playing over and over in his mind. He kept on persuading himself that even though Princess Selene isn’t fully trained about using magic. Prince Lucas is also a skilled swordsman although he lacked experience, they would be ju
Blood and Roses 32.3: Three Doors
CHAPTER 32.3Three Doors HE SHOULDN’T HAVE opened the wardrobe in the first place. So that he’d still somehow be able to squeeze answers from Selene, of why she’s acting strange and has been desperately avoiding him like he’s a virus. Of why she has been eluding every question that he’d throw where she’s forced to answer what might be bothering her or what makes her uncomfortable around him. He shouldn’t have been curious of that wardrobe. Now, he can’t help it but to curse that motherfucking thing. “Nakalabas na tayo sa wakas!” masiglang anunsyo ni Selene noong oras na makalabas sila mula sa pasilyong dinaanan nila. “Ang dilim do’n. I can’t believe I have to waste five minutes of my mana just so we could get here without patting uncertain things. Pa’no kung ahas na pala ang nakapa natin?” Mabigat ang pagbuntong hininga ni Lucas at
Blood and Roses 32.4: Head under Water
CHAPTER 32.4 Head under Water “IN THE MIDST of the night when all rests and the wind blows as if on a conquest, the clock clangored and the owl hooted— then silence befell on the dark and empty hallways.” Naniningkit ang mga matang pinagmamasdan ni Lucas si Selene habang binabasa ang bugtong na natanggap nila pareho mula sa liham na natagpuan nila matapos nilang halukayin ang buong lugar. Lucas still feels exhausted from finding any clues which may lead them from getting out of this place but even though he tried to be patient and cooperative, everything about this entire place seemed to test him. Everything puts him on edge. Gusto niyang magwala pero ayaw niyang biglang mabawasan ang cool niya sa harap ni Selene o hindi naman kaya ay magbago ang tingin ng dalaga sa kanya. But yes, he’s slowly losing it. “I hate riddles,” he blurted out when they both fell in the hands of
Blood and Roses 32.5: Escaping a Violent Demise
CHAPTER 32.5Escaping a Violent Demise WHEN LUCAS REGAINED composure, the room where they were was already filled with water and they’re already trapped with no place to escape. But he didn’t want to lose hope, there could still be a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel, he wanted to grasp upon the idea that the deities hasn’t turned a blind eye on them. They will be saved. But fúck this entire situation. Lucas turned to Selene and his grasp on her wrist tightened as he pulled her closer to him. When she told him that she doesn’t know how to swim, who would’ve thought that it wasn’t a lie? Mahinang napamura si Lucas dahil mukhang magpa-panic si Selene anumang oras lalo na’t hindi nila alam kung paano sila makakatagal sa ilalim ng lupa. He still doesn’t know if they could be killed if they’re drowned but he didn’t want to die, and if they
Blood and Roses 33.1: Outrunning Danger
CHAPTER 33.1 Outrunning Danger "ANONG GINAGAWA NIYONG dalawa rito sa gitna ng pasilyo? Nasa'n sina Merlin, Mahal na Prinsipe?" nagtataka't naguguluhang tanong ni Chief Knight Lyte habang pinagmamasdan silang dalawa. Dumating pa sa puntong minata sila nito mula ulo hanggang paa dahil napansing nagpapatuyo sila pareho. "At anong nangyari sa inyo? Ba't basang-basa kayo noong dumating ako rito? Sa'n kayo galing?" Matamang pinagmamasdan ni Lucas si Chief Knight Lyte at isinasaayos niya sa isipan ang sasabihin dito. He pressed his lips together before he looked away and squinted his eyes at the nearest wall. Pakiramdam niya, madidismaya ito sa kanilang dalawa dahil ang bilis nilang nahulog sa patibong kanina't ibinalik sila rito ng trapping pit na kinahulugan nila ni Selene. "It's a long story," Lucas began. Pagkasabi niya noon, saktong inagawan siya ni Selene ng mikropono sa pananalita. "Marami pong patibong sa p
Blood and Roses 33.2: Of New Hopes
CHAPTER 33.2 Of New Hopes NOONG MAKAPAGHANDA NA ulit sina Selene at Lucas, ibinalik nila ang atensyon sa kailangan nilang gawin. Kasama na nila si Chief Knight Lyte pero dahil mayroon silang grupong aksidenteng naiwan at naabandona kanina, kailangan nilang humabol sa mga ito sa lalong madaling panahon lalo na’t wala silang komunikasyon sa isa’t isa, hindi nila alam kung anong nangyayari sa mga ito. “Gaano katagal kayong nawalay sa kanila?” pag-uusisa ni Chief Knight Lyte habang nilalandas nila ang pasilyong dinaanan nina Merlin. Nagkibit balikat si Lucas. “Hindi namin alam. Pagkatapos naming mahulog ni Selene, pareho kaming nawalan ng malay pero kung ang bibilangin lang ay iyong oras na hinanap namin ang daan pabalik... Approximately four hours?” “Three to four hours,” pagtatama ng dalaga sa kanya. Noong marinig ni Lucas ang sagot nito, mabilis niyang iminuwest
Blood and Roses Chapter 33.3: What’s Beyond Darkness
CHAPTER 33.3What’s Beyond Darkness AS THEY WERE on their way to continue searching for Merlin and their other knights, all of them stopped when they felt rumbling under the floor. The earth beneath them was shaking, grumbling, it was as though the imprisoned god suddenly decided to throw a fit and they feel that something’s approaching them. Nagkatinginan sina Lucas, Selene, at Chief Knight Lyte. Mayroon siyang pakiramdam na hindi patungo sa kanila ang nararamdaman na panganib pero malakas din ang pakiramdam ni Selene na iyon ang makakatulong sa kanila na maituro ang kinaroroonan ng mga nawawala nilang kasama. But then, these rumbling noises bring her war flashbacks. Naaalala niya iyong nangyari sa kanila ni Lucas at kung gaano sila kadesperadong mabuhay na dalawa’t nauwi sa paghahalikan sa ilalim ng tubig! Though, yes. It’s for exchanging oxygen, but still... “Princess Selene, focus.” Natigilan siya nang marinig ang maawtoridad at striktang boses ni Chief Knight Lyte. Napatikhi
