The Lost Orb [PFS #1, The Bearer]

10 "The Clan of Hefuine"

SASKIA'S POV

WE GOT SURROUNDED by the northern people, but I could say the space is decent enough to make a way for us. Their discerning eyes never leave us off. I can see the admiration from the younger ones while the others are just casually guessing that we are from the prestigious place of Arozel. The scholars who they knew, protect the whole Zavied from the foreign entities.

Siguro ay nagtataka sila kung ano'ng ginagawa namin dito.

Ngumiti ako sa isang batang babae nang ikaway nito ang kamay niya sa akin. Ganon din ang ginawa ng iba sa 'min. The spotlight might be overwhelming, but gladly in a positive way. Muli kong itinuon ang tingin sa harap, kung nasaan si Eunice na aming sinusundan. Mas kilala siya ng mga tao rito, pati na ang kapatid niya. Dahil sila ang anak ng lord mayor.

"Bakit hindi namin alam na ama niyo pala ang namumuno sa buong syudad?" Tanong ni Amy. Ngumiti lang si Eunice sa kaniya.

I cupped my chin down. "Quite expected. Dati na nating alam na galing sila sa isang noble family."

Halos lahat naman ng A-rank scholars. Hindi na ako magugulat pa kapag malaman kong galing din sa isang kilalang bloodline sila Amy.

Tinignan ako ni Amy, sunod kay Eunice. "Pero ang tagal na nating magkakilala, Eunice. Ba't wala kang nababanggit? Edi sana may free entrance ako sa mga tourist sites dito!"

"Hala, manahimik ka nga Amy. Manggagamit ka pa!" Pagsingit ni Symone.

Amy hissed at him, "Manahimik ka, lalaki!"

Here they are again.

We were lucky na malapit lang ang manor nila sa pinaglapagan namin at hindi kami gaanong napagod sa paglalakad. Halos nasa front yard na kami ng ari-arian nila.

The northern part of Acrine City is huge. Nakarating na kami sa mismong harap ng manor nila. Mga ilang pamilya yata ang magkakasiya dito kung susukatin dahil sa laki nito. But it's not surprising, just to think how big the role of their father. I think that's normal for them.

The Hefuine's Manor was painted in soft white and the rooftop was in dark teal. There are two towers above their manor in total. A turret, and a small chapel inside their territory. The front yard consists of a variety of bushes and plants, and a fountain in the middle. It was also surrounded by acres of forestland.

Sinalubong kami ng mga sentries sa loob nito at kinuha ang mga bagahe namin. Mukhang napansin naman ng magkapatid ang naging reaksyon namin.

"Dito tayo mananatili nang ilang araw, dadalhin na nila ang mga gamit niyo sa respective rooms niyo." Paliwanag ni Keith.

"Teka! Planado ba ito noong una palang? I thought we were just staying in a normal inn, wide enough for us." Allisa marveled.
