Wrath Of Azura

39

Trigger Warning: (Disturbing descriptions for young viewers ahead)

Shiloh

I stared at my reflection; somehow, my uncle did not notice my blue eyes that night. I now need to plan everything ahead and use those pity to my advantage. This is my game.

Sinabihan ko na si Uncle na amponin na niya si Mikael, because Mikael will be a good use for my plans. They also plan to give me all the inheritance, but now since I am not the same wonder kid, they once knew... the board of directors is planning to give the company to my uncle in the meantime.

Good, because I am not planning to take the inheritance... but destroy them.

I'll destroy everything that the Imperial tried so hard to create.

"Maharlika?" I frowned at the statement Mikael gave me.

"Yeah, they have a huge name all across the world, the influence they made especially in Europe is powerful enough to not be forgotten," Mikael explained them in great detail.

"They somehow... grab the attention of someone in the Islas of Maria." He added that grabbed my attention.

Islas Maria. I have little knowledge about that place, but one thing is for sure they use magic. It looks like something that came out of a fairytale or mythology, but I witnessed that power, and it will answer most of my questions.

"Dagdag ko na rin na mukhang impossible na makapasok doon. I still don't have the answers-"

"Who said we're going to that place?" I scoffed and looked in the mirror. "I will make someone there... come here."

And that's how I start creating Maharlika, rather than being known as helping the people and bringing freedom. I made Maharlika that brings terror... and freedom of violence.

I look at the man who barged in. He's Azura's butler! that's the first thing that came to mind and also, and I also heard he was a former member of the Maharlika.

And he was also the one who somehow carried me away from that scene.

"Aren't you that kid's butler?" I asked as I want to make sure.

"Ikaw... ikaw 'yung bata na bumisita!" He was in shock.

Tama ako, but isn't he supposed to take care of Azura? I held the umbrella tighter; this umbrella always made me somewhat composed.

"Oh, you remember me... since you're that kid's butler. I won't kill you, " I said in a very lazy tone. I don't have time for him.

"What the hell are you doing?!" He shouted in rage. "How dare you tarnished Maharlika's name!"

Something about me snapped, ever since I came back to life. I've always lost patience with everything.

"Maharlika means.... freedman those who free themselves from slavery. So, I freed myself from that man's slavery!" I harshly slammed my hand to the cargo as I could feel my hand go numb, but what I notice more is the umbrella that almost bend. Mikael calmed me down. I can't lose this... not yet.

"This is a warning... I won't kill you because you're that kid's butler and friend, don't stop me... as I create a new hell for those bastards!" I walked away while holding the umbrella.

I've been feeling down ever since that umbrella bend. I can't focus on anything.

"Ito 'o. Tinry ko siya ayusin, at least hindi na siya baluktot."

I looked up and saw Mikael who fixed the umbrella by tying something to the bent pole. I feel an intense wave of happiness for the first time.

"Thanks! Mike!" I was happy as I grab the umbrella much gentler as Mikael smiled at me.
