After checking on me and seeing that I was fine, I was immediately sent to my dorm to rest. I have class tomorrow.

While I was lying down, I played with the dagger in my hand. It was still smoking black.

The end of its handle is a skull with a snake. The detail of the dagger is mesmerizing. I'm still thinking about how I managed to make it longer earlier and make it a sword. I'm trying to do it again, but nothing happens.

Inis akong napabangon at tinitigan ang vase sa side table ko. Suddenly the vase moved, and my eyes widened.

When the vase was now floating, I controlled it with my hands, and I was out of control, and the vase was crushed into pieces. I couldn't stop smiling as I walked towards the broken vase.

“I moved the vase, what the fuck?” I said to myself, picking up the broken vase to throw away.

Para akong bata na tila napag bigyan ng kanyang magulang na mag laro sa labas, I immediately got out of the room and knocked on the door of Elizabeth.

“Kenji, may kailangan ka?” Elizabeth asked me when she opened the door.

“I moved the fucking vase!” I happily said to her like a child, and she smiled at me and congratulated me.

“Malaki na ang naging improvements mo simula ng dumating ka rito.” Elizabeth said, and she walked inside her room. Sumunod naman ako sa kanya habang siya ay umupo sa sofa.

“Wala ka ba talagang naaalala?” she asked me. I frowned at what she asked me.

“Maalala? na ano?”  I ask her, confused.

“Kung sino ang totoo mong mga magulang.” She said, and she sipped in the cup of tea. I shook my head.

“All I can remember is my former parents—they love me like I'm their true son, but I was wrong, I heard them talking,” I said, looking at the window.

“Talking about what?” Elizabeth asked.

“Delikado ako sa pangangalaga nila, I've already grown up, my skills are slowly developing, I can lift heavy weights, and I can run sometimes in the speed of light that even I was still confused how I did that.” I said to her.

“So you already knew that you're not just a mortal, right?” she said, and I nodded in response to her.

“Bakit hindi mo gamitin ang kakayahan mo?” She asked me.

“I don't know how to use it—hindi ko alam, maski ako ay nagugulat sa mga kaya kong gawin minsan,” I said to her and faced her.

“The full moon is already approaching, Kenji— kasali ka sa gabi na 'yon, it's either you get killed or you will kill.” Elizabeth said.

“I need to train more, hindi p'wedeng mamatay na lamang ako dito, at hindi ko pa nalalaman kung sino ang totoong ako.” I said to her and walked towards the door.

I changed my clothes to a combat suit— I need to train— I will not be killed here— I got the dagger in my side table and got out of the window— I jumped to the ground floor— some students were looking at me, but I ignored them and went straight to the faculty office.

Gulat silang nakatingin sa akin ng pumasok ako ng hindi kumakatok.

“You need to rest kiddo,” my combat instructor said, but I ignored him and went to the instructor that created the illusion in the leveling.

“Please, create an illusion where I can train.” I directly said to him, he was looking at me.

“The illusion got collapsed for a while,” he said.

“I need to train.” I firmly said to them.

“P'wede kang mag sanay sa battle field, Scoot,” one of my instructors said to me. I frowned and got out of the office. I went directly to the forest where some creatures were there.

Naglakad ako pabalik sa likod ng dorm ko, para doon dumaan, where no one can see me if I go to the forest, my dagger in on my waist, when I'm done checking if there's no any races, I ran as fast as I could, but all of a sudden, my speed suddenly accelerated as light, himinto ako sa tapat ng gubat.

“Did I just run in a speed of light again?” I said to myself— hindi makapaniwalang sinusuri ang buong sarili.

I slowly enter the forest, I hear a strange howl in the surroundings, I hold tightly the dagger on my waist, sinusuri bawat hakbang sa aking dinadaanan, I see mid-monster on my way, the monster looking at me, I don't know, but I didn't feel scared or nervous about anything.

I calmly walk towards the monster, I swing my dagger, and suddenly the dagger lit up and became a sword, my eyes widened, “How?” I asked myself, staring at the sword in my hand.

When I want the dagger to become a sword, it doesn't want to work, and now suddenly it becomes a sword when I don't want it. I narrowed my eyes at the dagger I was holding and asked, “Pinag lalaruan mo ba ako?” I asked the sword as if it would answer.

I lost my focus when the monster suddenly ran towards me to attack me. I don't know how to use it yet. I just swing the sword in front of me as if I'm a crazy guy playing with the sword. I look like an idiot, for sure.

The monster split in two—I looked at it breathlessly and continued walking towards the heart of the forest.

I just swing my sword when the mid-monster approaches me, and I easily kill them.

I climbed the tree where I climbed before when I came here to the forest, and when I got to the top, I almost fell from the tree when I heard someone say something.

I turned around to find where the voice came from.

“You look like an idiot, newbie,” she said, so I looked at the upper branch and saw a woman lying on the big branch with her arms covering her face.
