Semua Bab Blood and Roses: Bab 121 - Bab 130

CHAPTER 29.4Val’guz WHEN SELENE AND LUCAS’ troupe joined the battle, Captain Favian and the others were surprised. Hindi inaasahan ng mga ito ang pagdating nila dahil hindi naman sila ang back-up na hinahanap ng mga ito. But then again, they can’t do anything since they’re already here and they are well informed of how grave the situation is inside the fog. Iyon lang, mukhang hindi alam nina Kapitan Favian na hindi lamang basta-bastang mahiko ang kahaharapin ng mga ito. Bagamat nasa kalagitnaan ang mga ito ng pakikipaglaban sa mga clones na binuo ng mga ‘mahikong’ namamalagi at naiwan sa kampong ito, ipinaliwanag ng mga ito na may naiwan silang mga tao sa labas. The thing is, they couldn’t find them anymore. Thus Captain Favian assumed that they might’ve escaped already or they are goners. Either way, orihinal na naiwan ang mga ito para ibigay ang instruksyon ni Merlin sa

CHAPTER 30.1Flustering Conversation JUST LIKE WHAT Lucas mentioned, their ‘rest’ wasn’t even an actual break. Masaya silang wala nang kalaban ang humaharang sa daraanan nila’t malaya silang nakakapaglakbay patungo sa kaharian ng Izquierdo. Aside from the bandits that would occasssionally attempt to rob them, whereas they always end up getting chased away, their travel to the aforesaid Kingdom was peaceful. Wala silang problema na naengkwentro bukod kay Merlin. Nag-aalala si Selene pero dahil alam niyang kaya wala pa rin itong malay e dahil nagamit nito lahat ng mana nito kakakalaban ng isang unexpected variable. Alam niyang magigising pa rin ang mahiko dahil walang problema sa mana core nito. Ligtas si Merlin bukod sa mga sugat na hindi basta-bastang magamot ng mga pari’t manggagamot. Selene heaved a sigh. This is a troupe-thing problem. Merlin’s presence is beneficial because he&rsqu

CHAPTER 30.3 To the Princess’ Devastation HINDI MABILANG NI Selene kung ilang beses siyang napalunok habang pinagmamasdan si Prinsesa Luan sa pinakaitaas ng curtain wall. She’s been sweat dropping and she’s been gesturing everyone not to move from where they’re standing on. If not, something terrible might happen to the Princess of Izquierdo. Mahina siyang napamura—hindi niya maalala kung paanong naging ganito ang twist ng events. Halos kadarating lamang nila noon sa harap ng kaharian. Nakahabol sila sa wakas sa grupo nina Chief Knight Fernandez ‘tsaka nila ipinadala si Chief Knight Lyte para hanapin ang kampo ng mga rebelde nang sa ganoon ay mayroon silang makakatulong sa pakikipaglaban. Ngunit nang matapos na mag-set out ng utos si Selene sa lahat, ‘tsaka sila binati ng isang hindi inaasahang pangyayari. Princess Luan stood at the curtain wall while she’s staring at Luca

CHAPTER 31.1Mix-Up IT’S BEEN A DAY and they haven’t talked yet. Noong mag-usap sila ni Prinsesa Luan, ang buong akala ni Lucas ay makakapag-usap kaagad sila ni Selene tungkol sa gagawin sa dalaga ngunit umiwas ito sa kanya. Nakailang beses din siyang naghanap ng oportunidad na pag-usapan ang gagawin sa dalaga nang sabihin nitong siya ang bahala dahil siya ang fiancée nito at naiintindihan daw ni Selene na malaki ang galit ni Prinsesa Luan sa dalaga dahil hindi naman talaga masisira ang relasyon nilang dalawa kung hindi dahil sa pagdating nito. Lucas wanted to retort that that’s not the case since in the first place, he never harbored any feelings toward Princess Luan and if ever that their marriage continued, it’d be nothing but a loveless relationship. A one-sided set-up between the two of them, but Selene only told him off and said that she’ll be busy ‘cause they’ll be infiltrating

CHAPTER 31.3Like a Neglected Puppy “YOU WON’T SPARE me a bit of your attention, would you?” Lucas asked as he was following Selene around. She was on her way to her own tent to rest for a bit but since Merlin and he had a conversation, he decided to confront her. Unfortunately for him, things weren’t looking good and Selene has been ignoring him. Muntik pa itong magmal-ninja ulit kung hindi lang siya alerto’t nabantayan niya ang pagkilos ng dalaga. That’s why it became easy for him to tail her around like he’s her dog or something—minus that he isn’t her dog, of course. “Nag-usap lang kami ni Prinsesa Luan pero kung umasta ka, parang mayroong nangyari sa ‘ming dalawa!” aniya. Lucas almost face palmed but when he realized that he can’t do anything to give Selene the opportunity to disappear from his sight, he stopp
