Cast of Spell [COMPLETED]

/37/ Emptiness

Kakatapos lang namin mag dinner. Nakatingin lang ako sa kisame habang dilim na ang paligid ng kuwarto. I somehow feel the empty inside, parang may kulang. Hindi ko alam pero parang anlungkot ko, wala namang masama na nangyari.

I forced myself to sleep dahil kailangan kong makita si Magnus. I need to maximize my time now. I need to destroy the coven as soon as possible. If I need to stay up all night just to master the casting of spells. Then I might do that.

Tinaas ko ang kamay ko at tinignan ang palad kahit wala naman akong makita. 'You need to cooperate' I mentally said.

Kinabukasan nagising nalang ako sa sobrang lamig ng hangin. Bumangon ako at sumilip sa bintana, mukhang maaga na at hindi pa sumisinag ang araw. Parang dadating ata ang araw ng taglamig.

It's May 27 at hindi iyon nakakagulat dahil kadalasan first week of June naguumpisa ang snow dito.

Bumaba ako at nakita ko si Dexie at Erylise na kumakape. Their faces looks so tired. Konting kapit nalang at ako na ang magtatrabaho, I just need to finish my plan first.

Pinagupitan na rin ni Erylise ang itim niyang buhok na dati abot hanggang balikat pero ngayon pinaiklian niya na ito. I think it's called two blocked curtain cut. I'm not quite sure.

"Good morning" I greeted them

"Morning Insan"

"Good Morning Lily"

Pumunta ako sa sala at kinuha agad ang spell book. There was something engrave on the hard brown covered of the spell book. I checked it closely and it says 'Dark Grimoire'.

Hindi ko iyon tinuonan ng pansin at naduretso na tumingin sa bawat pahina. While I was in the middle of scheming the book, biglang nahagip ang mga tingun ko sa isang pahina sa gitna. It has an iklustration of seven witches wearing a black shroud dresses. Some of them covered with a hood.

I checked the word on top of it

The seven sins of black witches.

Shivers suddenly slapped me down on my spine, parang natatakot akong basahin siya but I must. It says here in the book that the seven witches are reflected on the seven desdly sins which is: Pride, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, and Sloth.

They look so old and scary on the picture, some of them has hairs and some of them is bald. Based on the book magkaibigan daw silang pito, they hanged themselves in the mystical tree to offer their souls on the demon.

Namumuo na ang pawis sa noo ko. I turned the page again to read more informations about them.

They can be summoned if you surround the mystical tree with dark prayed candles and offer a new born baby and cite an incantation.

Agad kong naalala ang sinabi saakin ni Magnus dati. Sabi niya may balak daw ang coven na i-summon sila first week of June. But I doubt it, maybe they will do it earlier than the first week of June. Knowing na pwede na nilang magawa iyon dahil taglamig na.

I checked the next page kung saan makikita ang mystical tree and I stood up because of the shock.

North West Foxfit

Kung ganon.... Pupunta sila dito, babalik sila, not just to kill me, but also to destroy my town. Kinuha ko ulit ang spell book na nahulog sa sahig. Hahanap ako ng spell na pwedeng makaputol sa magic ng Mystical Tree.

But I stopped again when I saw another illustration.

Moon Blessed Transmission. I checked the definition and I think this might be a temporary solution for Dexie and Erylise.

Tinawag ko sila at agad sila lumapit saakim. Pinakita ko ang libro and smile flustered their face.

I read carefully the Moon Blessed Transmission. It's basically a donation of powers. If I'll donate some of my powers to Dexie and Erylise, it can be a heads up for us to destroy the coven and their plans.

I turned the next page and I saw the instruction. We need to be in a circle of water under the fool moon, surround the circle with dried thyme and a sweet nectar flower. In the middle there should be a lightened candle.

The book said that we need to whisper the incantation three times and we need a drop of blood from a creature who has fangs.

Naalala ko kaagad ang lobo. The blood from a creature who has fangs is the only thing we need. I checked the calendar at tamang tama magkakaroon ng full moon mamayang gabi.

Tumayo ako at binigay kina Dexie ang libro para mabasa nila ang instruction. I was walking back and forth, protesting kung babalik ba ako sa dagat kung saan matatagpuan ang mga lobo para humingi ng dugo or hahanap ako ng hayop na merong matalis na ngipin.

"Wala pa ba si Magnus?" I asked them

"Wala pa" sagot ni Erylise

Saan na ba siya? Kanina pa dapat kami aalis pero hindi pa siya dumadating. Baka akala niya nasa dagat parin ako, but I already told him na overnight lang iyon.

I don't know if I should be worried. But if something wrong happened to Magnus, I hope to the goddess that he will be safe. I can't afford to lose my mentor. Kahit na loko iyon, I care for that warlock so much.

Pagpatak ng alas dose ay agad na ako umalis sa bahay para pumunta sa restaurant. Hindi sumipot si Magnus. Nahihirapan pa ako kung saan ako pwedeng humanap ng aso, that's the only creature that I know who has a sharp fangs. Pumasok ako ng restaurant at agad na dumiretso sa kusina.

"Chef good afternoon po" bati ko kay Chef Gill

"Lily nakabalik kana pala. Paki marinate yung pork belly para sa bhan mi dish natin. Alam mo diba 'yon"

"Yes po Chef" sinuot ko ang hairnet at aapron. Kumuha na ako ng light soy sauce and balsamic vinegar sa cabinet at iba pang condiments, nagchop na rin ako ng mga sangkap. I took a quick glanced at Chef Gill at nag pe-prepare siya ng salpicao. The restaurant was busy dahil sa sunod sunod na costumers na pumapasok.

"Enjoy niyo ba ang outing ninyo?" Chef Gill broke the silence

"O-opo Chef" I awkwardly smiled remembering what happened

Pagpatak ng alas sais nagpaalam na kaagad ako, only two and a half more weeks and this will be done.

Naglalakad na ako ngayon sa tabi ng mainroad papuntang bahay. Hindi pa masyadong madilim, nagiging kulay kahel ang paligid dahil sa sunset. Pinapalibot ko ang paningin ko sa paligid para naghanap ng mga ligaw na aso na pwede kuhanan ng dugo for the Moon Blessed Transmission that we will be doing later.

I suddenly bumped into someone. I looked in front and a smile suddenly drawn on my lips as I saw this person.

"Lily?, I'm sorry I wasn't looking my way" Graychel apologized. She's walking alone. Hindi ko nga lang alam kung saan siya papunta.

Hindi pa ako nagsalita at mukha akong timang dahil sa nakangiti lang ako sa harapan niya. Bakit ba hindi ko kaagad naisip ang existence nila? I don't need to find a dog anymore. Because the creature who has a sharp fang is already standing in front of me.

Graychel

I need a drop of your blood
