Magnus Academy: The Cursed Blood

Chapter Seventy-Two

Deep Through The Unknown III

I closed my eyes like he did, and concentrated myself on letting out my energy. People think my energy is weak or too small, and seriously I don't know kung totoo ba talagang mahina ako. Pero alam ko sa sarili ko na kaya kong magpalabas ng enerhiya kahit gaano man ito kalaki, at hindi ko alam kung bakit. I do know so because I can feel it.

I felt my own energy radiating out of my body, flowing through my veins papunta sa mga kamay ko, as I transferred the given energy to him. I can feel his emotions. He's doubting all of these, but I know he can feel my energy.

Patuloy lang ang enerhiya ko papunta sa kaniya. I envision it as a water...a stagnant, cool flowing water. May lumalabas ditong kaonting tunog, the sound of water breaking down the rocks...accompanied by the small noises of the moving air, the swaying trees...

Binuksan ko ang mga mata ko at medyo nagulat makitang nakatingin lang derecho sa akin sa mga mata ang lalaki sa unahan ko. It's almost as if he's that surprised, which he is. He held both of my wrists and took it off his shoulders. He smiled, a genuine one.

Ngayong hindi ko na binibigay ang enerhiya ko, I can feel the toll it brought my body. Mas humina ang enerhiya ko kesa kanina, but still, I can manage. Rather I felt...rejuvinated.

"Unang beses ko naramdaman ang ganitong klaseng enerhiya..." he said clenching his fists, then opening them again, na para bang sinusubukan niya ang mga ito. "It was...pleasant." Pleasant was indeed a right term. Mukhang nakikita niya din kung ano yung nakikita ko nang pinasa ko ang kalahati ng enerhiya ko sa kaniya.

"But giving your own energy to your enemy heh." He smirked looking down below that monster. "You sure are naive."

"You think?" Sinundan ko ang tingin niya, the monster is still roaming around, at dahil sa laki nito ay hindi siya kasya kung gagalaw siya ng gagalaw.

At sa tingin ba talaga ng lalaking 'to ibibigay ko talaga sa kaniya ang karamihan sa enerhiya ko?  He must be thinking that I don't have enough energy reserves right now dahil sa laki ng bibigay ko. I gave him a portion of my energy that should be enough to treat a very critical disease, and that should be enough to generate the ability needed once or twice.

Pero hindi ko siya pinagkakatiwalaan kahit ginawa ko yun, and I won't do it just like that. Mag back-up plan ako sakaling gamitin niya man sa akin ang ability niya. Ah I'm not a fool, certainly so I'm not naive. I quit being one a long time ago.

"EEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!" I gritted my teeth while hearing that shrieking sound again. I already experienced damaging both of my ears tonight, at wala akong planong sirain 'to ulit.

"Nakita niya na yata tayo." Sabi niya. "Hindi ko alam kung saan nagmumula ang malaking enerhiyang dumadaloy ngayon sa katawan ko dahil sayo, although I don't even feel any enough energy from you....yet releasing such huge energy..." he sighed. "If you die I won't be able to pay my debt to you of saving my life once. Pero hanggang isa o dalawang beses ko lang masusubukan ang pinapagawa mo sa akin, considering I've never done it before."

True. Doing it so suddenly without even practising for it may only result to waste of huge spiritual energy.

"You're saying in order to focus more I need to distract it." Which is technically suicide on my part. "Pero magagawa mo ba talaga?"

"Matapos mong ipamukha na mamamatay tayo kung hindi ko magagawa? Tss, I will do it."

"Then I'll do my part without hesistations." He let out another bitter smile.

"You don't know how to fear death, do you?"

It was a compliment for him but not for me. Dahil noon pa man ay ayaw kong mamatay, I refused death several times before by thriving for survival. But it doesn't mean I fear death, and I do fear it at the same as well. Ah ang gulo.
