Cleo's pov

Hindi pa rin ako sigurado kung tama ba ang desisyon ko sa pagpayag na turuan ako ni zervex kung paano mag shift ng aking ES weapons.

Para bang sa isang iglap biglang nagbago ito.. If I know zervex from our previous project I can say that he is ARROGANT with no Helpful bone on his body but this zervex? Just weird...

I crossed my arms and tapped my right foot on the floor as I wait for him in a dual training room dahil walang nag tratrain at this time. Malamang naman wala dahil nga 3AM PALANG! Im a deepsleeper who prefers to stay in rather than waking up before the crack of dawn!

Siya na nga rin ang nag set ng oras na ito pero wala pa siya. Sarap bigwasan noh?

"Youre here!" Napantig ang tenga ko sa kanan at nakita ko pang hinihikab si zervex.

"Obviously. Malamang illusion." I rolled my eyes at him.

I should be thankful but right now im in a bad mood for his tardiness.

"Sorry. Anyways lets start then so that we can progress faster.'' He casted a sideway glance at me and then flashed a sweet smile at me.

I gotta admit that made my heart skip a beat but theres this unfamiliarity feeling in me along with a familiar one. Weird right?

The two of us entered the room and I dint waste a second to drop my small backpack at the side. Its tiring to stand for 30minutes ya know! Pero if its for me naman okay lang. Its just annoying.

I took off my oversized black hoodie revealing my black fitted shirt. Wala naman akong fats kaya its okay saka may sportsbra naman akong soot.

My sudden movement caused zervex to look away with reddening ear tips. Problema nun?

"So start na?" Pagtatanong ko rito habang hinihimas ang ulo ni glacies habang nakasampa siya sa isang metal pole na nakakonekta sa wall.

"Y-yeah... Its better if mag stretching at warm up muna.." Umiwas siya ng tingin ng hulihin ko ito sa mata.

Now that I look at it I rarely hear him speak in filipino kaya may accent siya na hindi ko mapinpoint.

"Sige." I rolled my shoulders as I head to the center of the room.

Im not a fan of exercising so all this work out thingy is forming my stamina along with some building muscle. I dont mind pero the muscle pain is too much when qe were training for the summoning.

I starter stretching my arms at hindi nag tagal, tumabi na rin saakin si zervex at nagstretching na rin ito ng kanyang mga braso.

When I glanced at him I noticed that he is well fit... Wasnt zervex lanky on the arms department when I visited him in his room? Did he build up that much muscles this past few days?

"Can you control your magi cleo? Saka meron ka bang proper coordinations? Mahirap kasing imaintain ang ES weapons at baka madrain ka agad which might cause your ES to be stuck in its weapon form." I glanced at zervex and stopped stretching.

Coordination? Yan ang weakness ko talaga dahil nadadapa ako parati. Even if theres nothing infront of me natitisod pa rin kasi ako.

"By coordination I meant synching with your magi." Mind reader siguro toh? "Im not a mind reader. Mukha ka lang talagang lampa."

Okay zervex is back na nga. Nangiinsulto na eh! Siguro may mens na ngayon toh kaya naging demonyo ulit.

"Oo kaya kong kontrolin ang magi ko saka hindi ako lampa noh!"

"Sabi mo eh." He shrugged at me saka naupo sa sahig.

Wow! Pahinga na agad kuya? Wow lodi naman pala. Sarap naman ng pagtuturo mo noh? 10minutes palang, break na agad!

"Oh? Hindi ka pa uupo?" Tinaasan ko ito ng kilay. "Mas mapapadali if we're sitting since first time mong mag shift." Pagdagdag nito.

"You should have said so." Umupo na rin ako but I made sure na malayo-layo ako ng konti sa kanya.

"Dahil dalawa ang ES mo. Its better if you start with the one youre more comfortable. Just watch me first so that you can see how it goes."

He placed a hand on his left ear saka mukhang hinahawakan niya yung ruby na piercing niya. He closed his eyes and it seems like he is concentrating. The piercing is glowing faintly and theres this black aura forming around his hand like the time where he protected me.

I squinted my eyes when the black aura is forming into something and the peircing is now glowing white. It dint take long before the glowing disappear. Once it was gone meron ng deck of cards sa kamay niya and this time merong parang red signs ito yung mga ace ace sa cards.

That was actually cool but cards as a weapon? He may have used it before but I dont see how it can work for hand on hand situations. Its not like you can play poker with an enemy if you go into a battle.

"Thats how it goes. I'll tell you tips as you do it yourself. Its quite easy if you get the hang of it anyway." I raised an eyebrow dahil para bang ang yabang sa panrinig ko ang kanyang sinabi.

I dint say anything nalang at baka mamaya mapikon ko pa ito at iwan ako. Dahil mukhang effortless lang sa kanya, siguro madali lang talaga.

*****

"I told you multiple times na keep a mental picture kung anong magiging permanent form ni glacies! My gahd! Hindi ka naman kinder para hindi magets ang isang simpleng instruction!" The amount of times he said that this past 4hours, namemorize ko na yun.

Its been 4hours and I still cant shift glacies. Its not that easy dahil may mental mental pang nalalaman tapos ako pala ang mag iisip ng weapon! Jusko naman!

Its mentally and physical tiring! Partida forming palang yun! Paano pa kaya if kailangan na imaintain ang form? Edi patayan na!?

"Are you even listening!? I said to make a mental bond with the ES and slowly dismantle her current form in your mind into a stable looking weapon!" Zervex had been riled up the entire time kaya kulang nalang na sakalin niya ako.

I wiped off the beading sweat on my forehead with the back of my palm as I kept Staring at the ceiling. Jusko pagod na ako! Time out naman! 4hours straight na rin namin itong ginagawa!

I was closing my eyes while catching my breath when I felt zervex's callused hand roughly hold my wrist.

"Arent you listening to me at all?'' His voice is cold and menacing which caused chillz to run down my spine.

"Oo. Timeout naman at pagod na talaga ako." My voice came out tired and weak.

"Tsk. No one more and then you can rest."

"Ayaw! Pagod na talaga ako at baka mahimatay na ako nito."

"Liste-" He got interrupted ng biglang bumakas yung pintuan.

"Sabing ayaw daw ni cleo eh!'' That person exclaimed with overwhelming anger.

He's back!
