She suddenly chuckled, making my cheeks blush even more. "Oh, baby, I thought you also knew this?" Miss Claudia pointed her knife at me.

Umiling ako. "No. I'm not."

"Okay. This is what we call a kukri knife, you understand?"

"Yes. I get it now."

"Good. Let's proceed."

Pinakita niya ang iba't-ibang klaseng kutsilyo: needle point knife, S curve knife, spanto knife, trailing point knife at marami pang iba. When she finished introducing the different kinds of knives, she proceeded to swords.

"I know you know how to use all of these. You were trained at a young age, so I wouldn't be shocked if you're all good with all of these. But, I will still discuss these with you." Kinuha niya ang espada at isa-isa niyang sinabi kung anong uri ito. Pagkatapos ay sinunod niyang ipakilala ang mga iba't-ibang uri ng shurikens. Hanggang sa maubos niyang ipakilala ang lahat ng weapons sa ibabaw ng lamesa.

"This is enough for today. It may be quick, but I'm not sorry for that. I'm in a hurry right now." Then she went out of the room.

The four corners of the room filled with whispers.

"What's wrong with her?" I tsked. Lumabas na ako roon at pumunta sa sasakyan.

I'm planning to wander around later. I want to see the whole place.

Gaya ng kahapon, nagbihis ako ng simpleng damit para mamasyal sa labas. I wore blue jeans and a white t-shirt, paired with white sneakers.

Hindi pa sila nakauwi, umalis na agad ako. I didn't bring my car since I was going to stroll around. I also brought my map in case I would lose my way back to our building.

I looked at the map and studied it. The seven buildings were for us, our condominiums, just beside each other. Twenty meters away from our buildings was the mall. In front of the auditorium were the tallest five buildings. In the middle of them was the tallest one.

I'm curious about what is inside these five buildings since the map gave no information about them.

I started to walk to the tallest building, and when I reached it, a tall guy suddenly appeared.

I raised my eyebrows when he started staring at me.

"Yes? Oh, I know that I'm beautiful, but please, back off. I'm not interested." I gave him a sweet smile as I flipped my hair.

Tumikhim siya at umiwas ng tingin. "You're not my type."

I felt embarrassed when I heard that. Tangina.

Sa ganda kong ito, hindi siya nabighani?

"You're not allowed to go inside, Lady Amara. Only important immortals can go inside, and you're not that important."

Oh? I'm also important kaya. I'm the next queen in our clan when my mom and dad decide to renounce their position.

I pouted, trying to seduce him with my natural pink lips. "But..." I stopped.

Inilagay ko muna ang ilang takas na buhok. I put all of my hair on my right shoulder, letting my neck be exposed. I saw his Adam's apple move as his eyes landed on my neck.

I hid my smirk. "I'm also important, right? I'm a princess."

"Yes, you're important, but you're not that important. I can't allow you."

Tumalikod siya. Akala ko maglalakad na sa loob pero bigla siyang nagsalita. "And stop seducing me."

"Me? Seducing you? Are you nuts?" Hindi ako makapaniwalang tumingin sa likod niya. "Why? Are you seduced?" I laughed.

"Yes. So stop seducing me." And he disappeared.

My laugh died down. Really? Umpisa pa lang nga 'yon, tapos na seduce na siya? Tsk, stupid, asshole.

Nakasimangot akong naglakad papalayo roon. I opened my map and started to study it. I turned to the left and suddenly bumped into a hard object.

"Ouch..." I whimpered as I touched my forehead.

"Are you okay, Amara?" I heard his worried voice. He held my arm and checked my forehead. "Fuck. Akala ko may bukol."

I glared at Draven and he immediately stepped backward. "Why are you here? Tsk, go away."

"I'm worried about you."

"And why are you worried?"

"I don't know," he answered.

"Tsk, I don't care. Just back off."

Iniwan ko siya roon at pinagpatuloy sa pagmamasyal. I was about to walk into the garden when someone called my name.

"Princess Amara."

Napatingin ako sa likod at nakita ko ro'n ang babaeng inapi ni Dragon Lady.

"Yes? What do you need from me?" I asked and gave her a small smile.

"Ahm. I just wanted to say thank you for saving me from K-Kirsten yesterday," she stammered.

"No worries."

Namula ang pisngi niya nang marinig ang sinabi ko. Nahihiya siyang tumingin sa akin.

"Can I be friends with you, Princess Amara?"
