TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter Thirty-Two: Comeback

"Goodbye, see you soon," I said as I ride my horse and we get off.

--After almost 3 years...

I was planning to go back within a year or half a year but I had a hard time locating my teacher's location. Matapos kong alamin ang nangyari sa restaurant ni Lady Layla na naabandona kaya pala wala na akong natanggap na sulat mula sa kanila pero ang nakakapagtaka wala ang mga sulat dito sa mail box. I ask around where are the people who live here but they seem don't want to speak about it but then I've learned from a pub around here that they leave without a trace or where they did go. Fortunately, hindi naman binenta ang bahay at naging haunted house ang dating nito dahil sa mga lumot na nasa dingding na ibig sabihin ay walang naninirahan dito.

~~Flashback

I went inside as I unlock the door with the key that was hidden inside the bell in front of the door, it is the emergency key where Lady Layla put in for me and Ian if we ever lose our keys as if she already knows something might happen like this. Pag kapasok ko ng bahay ay walang pinagbago nung umalis ako at nakakapagtakang malinis sa loob as if someone is living but no one is around.

"Is anybody here?" I said as I look around the house.

"..." Walang sumagot kaya chineck ko lahat ng rooms pero wala talaga. I went to my room and check the notebook that I was looking for.

"There you are," I said habang pinapagpag ito dahil sa alikabok since my room was not touched unlike the other rooms that it was clean. I open the windows dahil parang masusuffocate ako dito at pinagpag muna ang kama ko tsaka ako naupo. Binuksan ko naman ang notebook and I read the things that I wrote although it was only the important events like the arrival of the real Crown Princess that was transmigrated from my world, which is a year from now so I need to go back within half a year or a year in the lake of the tower.

"What should I do first? Continue to look for my teacher if I didn't find him within the time or go back there before her arrival?" nasabi ko nalang dahil hindi madaling alamin ang kinaroroonan ng aking magaling na guro since he doesn't stay in a place for a long time. If you're curious how can I locate him is that he told me before to visit the temple in our village for the answers so after this I will visit the temple. 

I stayed in the house for a couple of days before I visit the temple as I pack my things for traveling since I am sure he goes everywhere and didn't stay long in one place.

"Hello, is anybody here?" I said when I enter the temple but no one answered me.

"It doesn't look like it was abandoned though," Sabi ko habang naglakad papasok at tinitignan ang paligid since it was well maintained clean. 

"Good day, gentleman. What can I do for you?" Napalingon ako sa nagsalita and it is a priest. I bow down as I greeted him.

"I am here to know the whereabouts of my teacher," I said as I follow him to the visiting room and seated.

"Are you perhaps Avy?" He said as he offers me a tea.

"Yes, thank you," I said as I receive the tea.

"Oh, he mentioned to me that a man who looks like a woman will come here for his teacher a few years ago," He said as he remembering it. Damn, Is he even an old man for his age to remember that kahit na ayokong iunderstimate ang matatanda pero karaniwan ay nakakalimutan na nila. I am amazed that he could still remember it but why does my teacher told that a man looks like a woman since I don't think he knows I am a woman.
