DARK PRIESTESS

All of my powerful and useful adherents are walking behind me. Tanging tunog lamang ng mga yabag namin ang maririnig sa bawat sulok ng madilim na pasilyong ito.

My long black hair was tied in an elegant style, designed with shining jewels. Maaasahan ko talaga palagi ang taga-ayos kong diwata na siyang ibinigay sa akin ni Iriya bilang alipin ko. I'm wearing a Queen Anne styled dark red gown, decorated with dark rare crystals. I know how much expensive these crystals are and it's very hard to acquire. But I do not need to worry because Sidas always prepared different valuable crystals as his gift to me. I love his attitude the most since he doesn't make it a big deal everytime he give me something.

I know that these beings behind me are all swallowed with mixed fear and respect. I can smell and feel it. The more they fear me, the more powerful I become. My austerity and power greatly ascends which I greatly wanted from the start I came here.

When we reached the huge door at the end of the corridor, the servants guarding the door bowed their heads.

"Dark Priestess!"

"Dark Priestess!"

Buong paggalang nila kaming pinagbuksan at pinigilan ang kanilang mga sarili na salubungin ang tingin ko. Ito ang bagay na pinakakaiwasan na gawin ng bawat mababang nilalang sa Glomera Manor. All of them knew about the consequence of making eye contact to the Dark Priestess, which is me.

The price is their lives. Marami ng nilalang ang nakitilan ko ng buhay sa loob ng asyenda dahil sa pagsuway sa hindi nakasulat na patakarang iyon.

How dare they look at my eyes directly? I'm the most powerful here and all of them knows that.

Fear. Fear. Fear. How I love it!

We arrived inside the room, I silently sit on the throne-like seat and crossed my legs.

Itinaas ko ang kaliwang kamay ko na naging hudyat para magsiupuan na silang lahat. No one dared to speak. Only their breathing were heard on the six corners of the room.

"Why are we not complete?" tanong ko.

That darn princess! She thought she can just do everything she wants, just because she's my daughter's bestfriend. Tsk.

"You know that she can't just disappear from time to time, Mom. Be not worry since she'll always fight along with us," Bleara said while smiling. My anger subsided. This daughter of mine is already a great help to my grand plan. Hindi ako nagsisisi na binigyan ko ito ng pangalawang buhay.

"Did you already prepare to execute our plan? I don't want failures and you know that," I changed the topic.

A handsome man wearing a mandarin collared black robe raised his black fan. Heraco always have it. It was because his fan was the main provider of his leveled up magic.

"Yes, Dark Priestess. I already made sure to spread the word to our allies outside of the academy," Heraco smirked as he spoke. He is just as sly as almost everyone here.

Apart from his fan, he is also one of the best telepathic mage inside the kingdom of Slotsovia. He's known as the mysterious advisor of Governor Maverick in Blarabe, which is the second largest city in the kingdom.

Dumapo naman ang tingin ko sa hindi katandaang babae na hindi kakakitaan ng kahit ano'ng emosyon. This woman's demeanor was almost like mine.

She's Delianne Amor, the headmistress of Mihayen Academy. I'm quite lucky to have her follow me. No one knows her better than me. She has that greed that only paves a way for me to control her.
