Chapter 10: The Mischievous Emperor
Kiruna, West Border
"How did you do that?" Andrew asked me habang naglalakad kami papunta sa malaking castle na nasa gitna ng Kiruna kingdom. Emperor Axel remained silent ahead of us.
"Do what?" Nagtatakang tanong ko kay Andrew.
Every person stopped what they are doing para lumuhod kay Axel ng makita nila ang kanilang Emperor. They made a path for the Emperor habang iniiwasan ang tumingin sakanya. Nakayuko silang lahat at nakatingin sa sahig, trying their best not to look at Axel. I noticed some of them took a curious glance at me. Nang mapansin nila ang kumikinang na korona sa ulo ko, their eyes widen in surprise bago tumingin agad sa sahig.
"The way you fought those wolves, as if sanay ka ng lumaban. Nag-aral ka ba ng self-defense?" Andrew asked with his coal eyes piercing at me.
Now that he mentioned it, naalala ko ang pangyayari kanina. He was right, how the fuck did I fought those wolves? Pano ako bigla nagkaroon ng skills? Anong sumanib sakin at nakasurvive ako? Hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyare sakin, para bang may kumontrol sa katawan ko. Maybe Lucy knows how to fight? But that's impossible, not even once humawak sya ng isang spada, let alone a bow and arrow. So, the question is, how did I know how to fight? I was silent for a minute, pinagiisipan ng maigi kung ano ang isasagot ko kay Andrew.
The only thing I remembered was the feeling of familiarity, like I did those before. Baka marunong naman talaga lumaban si lucy hindi lang sinabi sa novel? For now, at least I can protect myself, this is a good thing and useful in the future.
"To be honest, I don't know. My body moved on its own. Maybe dahil sa instinct? Adrenaline rush? I am not sure." Mahinang bulong ko. Nanatiling nakatingin sakin si Andrew ng ilang minuto bago ibinalik ang kanyang paningin sakanyang harapan.
"Empress Blair!" I stopped my horse ng biglang may sumigaw sa pangalan ko. Andrew along with the Emperor stopped their horses as well para tumingin sa taong papalapit sakin.
Oh, it was the guy we saved earlier.
"Imperial Empress Blair, I am the first ranked noble William Nilsson of Kiruna Kingdom. I would like to personally give my sincerely gratitude for saving our lives. I would like to invite the Imperial Empress to have some tea with us at para bigyan ka rin ng isang munting regalo for saving ou----"
Ibubuka ko sana ang bibig ko para sabihin na hindi lang ako ang nagligtas sakanila kundi si Andrew rin, pero hinarangan ako ni Axel bago pa man makalabas ang mga salitang gustong lumabas sa bibig ko.
"There's no need Sir Nilsson. I wil handle it from here. Your offer is not needed." Axel said with a smile, but his eyes is telling other wise. William frowned at the emeperor's words, clearly displeased, but wala syang magagawa against the Emperor kahit man sya ay itinuring na First ranked noble.
"As you wish, your majesty." He said through his gritted teeth.
Tumingin uli sya sa direksyon ko bago tumalikod samin at umalis. People turned their head to follow the noble. I have a bad feeling about this noble. Namention si william sa novel maybe twice pero yun lang yun. Sinabi lang na isang syang ranked noble and that's it. Walang sinabi kung ano ang ginawa nya or anything.
