*ASTRED*
I just wanted to find Blaze pero hindi ko akalain na makikita ko si tandang Lexus dito kasama ang hindi ko kilalang tao.

His deep dark hazel eyes are piercing cold. His expression is blank which reminds me of someone.

'malakas ang isang ito'

'sa tingin ko nga'

Dromir is right. This man exclude an intimidating aura. His strength is no joke.

"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be in the Academy" napakagat nalang ako ng ibabang labi bago umiwas ng tingin.

Hay naku naman. Bakit ba siya nandito?

"Hehe. Sorry, master. I just wanted to find something" his eyebrows knitted into straight line.

"And what is that you needed to find?"

Ah. Anong sasabihin ko. Kailangan ko ba sabihin na nagpunta ako dito para kumuha ng kayamanan ni Blaze dahil wala akong pera? Ayoko naman na maging pabigat sa kanya.

I was about to answer him pero bigla nalang may sumulpot na lalaking may suot na armor.

"Your excellency. We found the lair but the mother is not there" ulat ng lalaki sa kasama ni tanda. Agad na namilog ang mata nito nang mapabaling kay Blaze na nakahiga sa tabi ko habang dinidilaan ang balahibo niya.

Mukhang may misyon sila dito.

"F-fire Tiger..." His complexion looks bad. Maybe because of Blaze.

May mga sumulpot din galing sa kabilang dako ng kweba at ganun din ang naging reaksyon nila nang mapatingin kay Blaze.

Yeah. I forgot about the fact that Blaze is one of those dangerous monsters. Baka kaya ganun ang reaksyon nila.

"Uhh. I think you have more important mission to do. So i think i need to leave this cave" agad akong tumalikod at sumakay sa likod ni Blaze na agad din naman na tumayo.

Their surprised expressions plastered on their faces but i don't have time for that. I need to find something---

Oh, wait.

"Master. Do you have a potion that can treat poison?"

"What for?" Lexus.

"My companion got poison" Lexus took a deep breath and search inside his bag.

He took out two bottles of potion for poison and another bottle with lime green liquid and gave them to me.

"We've already searched, but the Tanua Queen is nowhere to be found"

Huh?

"How odd. The Tanua Queen is supposed to be somewhere around here, but there's no traced of her anywhere" so they are looking for that spider.

"Forgive me for interrupting, but are you looking for the Tanua Queen? That half-female and half-spider?"

"How did you know? Did you ecountered it? Where have you last seen it? Are you sure?" I nodded at Lexus.

"Well. She spits acid webs that can melt even the stone. I almost got killed by that sharp leg of hers" it's giving me the goosebumps whenever i remember that scene. I almost got killed.

"Child. Where have you seen it exactly?" The man asked me with his polite but  serious voice.

"I'll lead you there" since i already have the potion. I have to help him healed para naman makaalis na kami dito.

Ilang minuto pa ang nilalad namin bago kami makarating sa lugar kung nasaan ang spider.

"My goodness. It's already dead"

The man approached the spider and inspect the wounds.

"It's still fresh. Child, did you do this?"  Nangilabot ako sa tono ng boses niya. Masyadong seryoso kumpara kanina.

"Uhh...no sir. Not me, but my companion"

"And who is your companion?" Tanong ni tanda.

I was with Lo---i mean. I was with young master Keelan. He's the one who killed the Tanua Queen. He got poisoned. I was actually out here to find something that can heal him. Thankfully you are here"

"Child" he stood up and faced me.

"I have not properly introduced myself. I am Kinrozardi Drago. The Grand Duke of Drago Duchy. Keelan is my son" muntik ko ng mabitawan ang hawak ko.

"Uh...uh..." Mabilis akong bumaba at yumuko.

He says he's the Grand Duke, which means he is a special person of this Kingdom. I can't believe i'm leisurely talking to him at ease.

"Please forgive me. I did not know who you are"

Rinig ko ang buntong-hininga ni tanda bago lumapit at hawakan ako sa balikat.

"Kinro. Stop intimidating the child"

"I did not" he took a deep breath and held his sword.

"We can't waste our time here. Prepare to subdugate the rest. And child..." Napalunok ako dahil sa kaba. Sino ba naman ang hindi kakabahan kung kaharap ko ang isang importanteng tao.

"Y-yes, your excellency"

"Nevermind" he turned his back and left with his knights.

Ah. What about Loki. Is he not concern about his son's wellbeing?

"Don't mind him. Just take the potion to him. I'll have to take this mission with him. Make sure to leave this cave when he's healed" tinanguan ko nalang si tanda at mabilis na pumasok sa Helianthus.

*LEXUS*
*Are you not concern about your son?" He remained silence wearing his blank face.

Sigh!

"He is not weak. He can take care of himself"

How long do i have to put up with his attitude. I know he is a good man. It's just that, he doesn't know how to properly express his emotions out in the open.

I just don't get this father and son's attitude.

Bearing the same expressions and demeanor. I wonder if their minds are also in sync.
