Chapter 42

Anais Point of View

"I claim my right to the throne. I have evidences of the the kings evil deed." I formally announced to everyone.

"Hindi ako makapapayag. Duel me, someone has to die first before claiming the throne at isa iyon sa atin."

I look amused when Azury declared a royal duel.

Tahimik ang lahat kaya mukhang gusto rin nilang mangyari iyon. After all, all of them still trusts this guy.

Huminga ako nang malalim, I got everything controlled mula sa mga council at ibang kaharian, they're in my side. Hindi ako namahimik nang ilang linggo para sa wala.

"Locate and kill the King."

Utos ko sa isa sa mga miyembro ng scarlet nexus kaya kaagad itong lumisan. Sumenyas ako sa mga iba ko pang tauhan na lisanin ang silid kaya naman ay nagsinghapan ang lahat dahil biglaan na lang nawala ang mga lalaking nakaitim.

"The other royalties are the witness." sambit ng pari.

Everyone gave us space in the center. Kaagad pumunta si Azury sa gitna kung nasaan ako.

He haven't stared at my eyes yet. He still hasn't.

Azury drew his sword and he pointed it to me, my heart flinched when he look at me with empty eyes.

Huminga ako nang malalim. I just have to kill this guy first. Bago ko makuha ang trono.

I walked slowly at the center, my heels are making such noise that probably sent chills to everyone. I slowly remove my gloves.

I can feel his stare, tinititigan niya ako sa paraang parang kaming dalawa lang ang nakatayo sa loob ng bulwagan na ito.

My chest heaved. Can he kill me?

Can I kill him?

After killing Raven who turned out to be Franco, the anger in me is slowly dissolving. I can feel it. There's a feeling inside me that I kept ignoring.

Am I able to do this?

"Be ready."

Chills traveled towards me as soon as he broke my silence. He said it in a way that Azury will not do when talking to me.

He's different.

Bullshit.

Pull yourself together bitch. That's just Azury!

I stared back at him with the thought that he's probably looking at my face but my lips swayed when he was looking at my forehead.

He really can't look at me.

Five seconds had passed and none of us still started a move, he is probably has some strategies in his head. After all, he's the one who proposed this.

I secretly put my five senses at their maximum capacity. I look throughly him, but his stance is perfect walang butas.

Sa oras ng pagkisap ng mata niya ay kaagad akong tumakbo sa harapan niya, I jumped swiftly trying to mimicked the speed of thunder. While in air, I gathered my mana around my fist to form a steel fist. I landed it to him as soon as he opened his eyes after blinking but to my surprise, he stopped my swift attack with his sword that he covered with anti-physical barrier. He has clairvoyance kaya nagawa niyang protektahan ang sarili. The ground break at nakausli na ang sahig dahil sa tindi ng atake ko.

"I'm sorry for everything. Sana pala una pa lang ay sinabi ko na sa 'yo."

I ignored him.

Kaagad kong nakita ang isa niyang kamay na aatake na sana sa akin kaya kaagad kong sinipa iyon. I held his arm and twisted it, I tried to controlled his sword but I'm not surprised when I can't use thay ability because he can nullify powers.
