TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter 124: Eh?! It can be?!

"Where is the High Priest?"

Avy asked him when she saw a two way since hindi niya alam kung nasaan ang High Priest ay napahinto siya at humarap kay Prince Kilden na nasa likod niya lamang.

"Who told you to walk first before me as if you know the way?"

"Yeah, right. I am sorry that I walk first before you even though I didn't know this place, Yo--Kilden,"

I said na muntikan pang mapahamak na naman at mabuti nalang wala kaming ibang kasama ngayon since Klin was left behind with the knights when we enter the Holy Church but I can't call him so casually when other people are present.

"Yes, yes. Follow me,"

Prince Kilden smiles at me as if he is saying that 'I just did the right thing to call his name instead of using honorifics' - look on his face. I just followed him and we stopped at a big door which was different from the doors that we passed through.

*knock* *knock*

"It's us, High Priest,"

Kilden slowly opens the door habang ako ay kinakabahan sa pagbukas ng pintuan at medyo nasilaw ako sa liwanag na nagmumula sa loob ng ilang segundo. Napakurap ako ng ilang beses bago nakapag-adjust ang mga mata ko at may nakita akong isang lalaking nakatalikod na nakasuot ng puting robes and his hair is somewhat familiar since it was a long hair but it is black which is very similar to my teacher or my master as we enter the room.

"Long time no see, Avy,"

"Eh!? Master?!"

Nagulat ako nung humarap siya sa amin ni Prince Kilden na dahilan para mapaatras ako ng isang hakbang habang hindi mapakaniwala sa aking nakikita.

*chuckled*

"I am happy that you are doing great, Avy. I know you have many questions so,"

The High Priest said to Avy as he smiles at her shocked expression with many questions as he signs to seat in the chairs. Prince Kilden was also surprised that he didn't think that they know each other with questions on his mind that 'why did he not tell him that he knows Avy'-look on his face.

"I also have questions, High Priest,"

Kilden said as he looks at him seriously but the High Priest just smiled at them while Avy is still processing the situation she is in.

"I know. Please seat down the two of you,"

He said as he sit down on the single sofa while Prince Kilden and Avy sits down on the same sofa since it is good for two persons or three.

"... Maste-- err, High Priest are you my master?"

I asked my master kung siya talaga since iba ang kulay ng buhok niya pero parehong light blue eyes ang mga mata niya, and his physical features are also the same so I am not sure kung siya nga.

"Of course, I know you are puzzled since I didn't tell you anything and we met not by accident or coincidence but by fate when we met back then at my favorite place, Avy. I also didn't expect that I will meet you there so I am sorry if I didn't tell you anything, since it is not the time but I can't just leave you. That's why I become your master,"

He smiled at me sincerely, and I feel nothing even though I should be mad or get mad but it seems like I already accepted my fate and I don't need to be surprised knowing what will happen to me from the book.

"..."

"Then, why didn't you tell me that you already know her?"

I didn't answer but Prince Kilden strikes him a question by a serious tone na medyo naiinis but the High Priest just chuckled na tila ba natutuwa pa siyang nakikita na naiinis itong katabi ko. Although, I am really glad that I saw him once again after we parted nung pabalik na akong Winter Kingdom from my training with Master Matthew, yes, his name is Matthew that I didn't think that he will be the real deal na akala ko dati ay kapangalan niya lang ang High Priest since I didn't see the High Priest so I hindi ko alam ang itsura niya but they said that he has a black long hair, and my master has white long hair so I didn't doubt o naghinala sa kaniya.
