MORTA OF IMPERIAL HOUSE

Kabanata 30

MORTA'S POINT OF VIEW

Hesiya and I slept together. Hindi siya tumigil sa pag-iyak hanggang makatulog ito. Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala sa lahat ng sinabi ni Hesiya. I wish it's just a joke. I don't want Hesiya to be like me. An orphan.

Iniisip ko palang ang bagay na ginawa ni Lukio ay nag-iinit na agad ang ulo ko sa galit. I treated them like a real person because I thought they still deserve to be treated as one.

Dumeretso agad ako sa library ng magising ako. Nakasunod naman sa akin si Hesiya. Hindi na lamang ako nagsalita dahil wala rin naman akong sasabihin sa kaniya. Kung iisiping mabuti, parehas lang kaming biktima. Pero kumpara sa akin, mahina si Hesiya at walang laban. Naiintindihan ko kung bakit siya takot na takot.

"What are we doing here?" Tanong bigla ni Hesiya. Napabuntong hininga naman ako.

"Just find a book about magics and abilities" utos ko kay Hesiya. Walang imik na sinunod naman niya.

Nang makaipon kami ng iba't ibang libro ay umupo kami sa sulok.

"Do you remember the jewel you saw? Find similar to that" saad ko kay Hesiya. Tumango naman ito.

Nagbuklat din ako ng mga libro at naghanap. I really don't know about his ability. He can make something that can nullify magics. He can also make something that can absorbed my blood.

He really is powerful.

"I found it" masayang usal ni Hesiya bago inabot sa akin ang librong hawak niya.

Tiningnan ko ang litratong nakalagay. I am not familiar with it pero base sa itsura, para talaga itong isang diamond jewel.

"Creation?" Basa ko pangalan ng abilidad na iyon.

"Creation is a type of ability that exceeds the human expectation. A rare ability that has several limitations. Creation is ability that can create anything the creator wants however the limitations are set to be higher. Creation can create a core of life. It is a life that can control human beings by the creator. Creation can create a weapon the creator wants. Creation has a number limitations. Creation has energy limitations" basa ko sa importanteng bahagi ng ability na meron si Lukio.

"He really is your uncle. You are both powerful" saad sa akin ni Hesiya.

"You know, sometimes magic is a blessing and sometimes it's a curse. So, don't be sad" saad ko kay Hesiya. Tumango naman ito sa akin.

"What are we gonna do now?" Tanong sa akin ni Hesiya.

"Tomorrow is the coronation day. The event will be held in front of Imperial Palace. The coronation is open for public. Hesiya, I need you to be there but don't worry. I will wear the crown of the Crown Princess"

Tumango naman si Hesiya.

"After that, I will kill Fernando and Helena. Are you okay with that?" Tanong ko kay Hesiya.

"My parents are long gone. It's fine" saad nito sa akin.

"Good, the plan is, when everyone kneel. I need you to steal the imperial seal. I know you know where it is. Steal the seal and bring it to me. By the time you come back, there's no longer a king and a queen. So your part is crucial"

"Okay, copy that" usal ni Hesiya sa akin.

Matapos namin mag-usap ni Hesiya ay bumalik na siya sa kaniyang silid. Nang makabalik rin ako sa aking silid ay nadatnan ko si Damian na prenteng nakahiga.

"I like your plan" saad nito sa akin. Napangisi naman ako. I knew it. He was there.

"Lukio possessed a rare ability called creation. It's really unique and dangerous. He can make a core of life. It's perfect for a puppet heart" saad ko kay Damian at ikinwento ko sa kaniya ang lahat ng aking nalaman tungkol kay Fernando at Helena.
