CHAPTER 20

It's cold but it's a very bright place.
Though I can't see anything. I'm surrounded by white—I don't know.
Basta. Puro puti lang ang paligid ko. I've been here for only God knows how long.
"M'lady?" I turned at my back and saw Azriel walking towards me.
"Oh hey 'ssup?" I asked with a bored tone and sat down. He frowned at me and sat in front of me. "Really? Tsk." He clicked his tongue in annoyance and sighed.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Mm..." I hummed and layed down. "M'lady, where's your etiquette?"
"Nasa lugar ako kung saan walang ibang tao kundi tayong dalawa lang. The hell I care about etiquette?" I rolled my eyes at him. "So, do you know anything about this place?"
"..."
"We're in your inner consciousness."
"Inner-what?"
"Inner consciousness. Hm. You can assume that this is a void space inside your mind."
"And why the hell are we here?"
"You're unconscious on the outside. It's only your consciousness that's here. You don't have anything to worry about." He said and layed down as well.
"Why are we in such state?"
"You can say that your mana is unstable at the moment."
"Huh?"
"You used quite a powerful spell back there m'lady. And you did it not just once but a couple of times. Your body is not that ready for those. You're not that focused and thus your mana acted up. It's quite complicated."
"I see... So it was my fault huh?" I mumbled and sighed once again.
"No. It wasn't m'lady. It was mine."
"..."
"If only I wasn't useless, then I could've helped you better. You wouldn't have to be in this kind of situation. I apologize."
"You don't have anything to apologize Az. I snapped back there and used a powerful spell without thinking. Don't be sorry. You were a great help. Besides, it's not like this situation is that bad." I told him and flashed a smile. "Anyway, I'm getting bored here. Gaano na ba ako katagal na natutulog?"
"Three days."
"Ohh. Three—what?!"
"Hindi mo kailangang sumigaw."
I rolled my eyes at nagpagulong-gulong. "M'lady!"
"Argh. What?"
"Umayos ka, utang na loob." He said and massaged his temple. He acted as if isa akong sakit sa ulo. Ang kapal ng mukha.
"Tsk. Hayaan mo lang ako. Anyway, do you know how can we get out of here?"
"Your mana have to stabilize on its own so you can wake up. Other than that, I can't think of anymore solutions." He said and layed beside me and curled up like a baby. I snorted at him and rolled my eyes.
Etiquette my ass.
"It's a good thing I don't feel hungry."
The both of us became silent for I don't know how long. We've been laying down the white floor staring at nowhere.
