CHAPTER 32

I just looked at her while she was walking with her sword on the ground, she was humming softly while walking straight, without any intention to look above the trees.

I focus on giving my nen to my sword so I can attack her. Always a black smoke comes out— oh fuck, don't be a curse, please, I need to live longer.

Nang alam ko nang sapat na ang nen na naipon ko ay inihanda ko na ang sarili ko sa pag-atake, I jumped on the tree towards her, I tightly held my sword, and I hid my aura. I hope it works.

I hit her on her shoulder, she was panting— she looked at me while holding her shoulder with a wound. I know the wound you received from this sword will not heal. She was shocked and looked at my sword. “The curse sword,” she said, and retreated.

“Sino ka?  Bakit na sa'yo ang espada na 'yan?” She asked me confusedly, looking at her wound, which now had a black nerve on the side.

I didn't answer her, and I ready myself for my next attack. I tightly held my sword and ran towards her as quickly as possible.

She was surprised and widened her eyes. It was too late for her to dodge my attack, her left arm was severed and was flung into the distance, her eyes widening as she watched her hand splash into the distance.

Even though it was difficult for her to move, she still managed to raise her sword and prepare to attack me.

I didn't let my guard down, even though one of her hands was cut off, I was more careful with her, but I didn't expect that she dropped her sword and slowly approached me. I was confused looking at her walk towards me.

Nang nasa tapat ko na siya ay nag angat ito ng ulo at tumingin sa akin, I was surprised looking at her smiling ear to ear, “Kuya.” She called me “Kuya, yakap,” she said, and her eyes turned all black once again, tulad kanina ng may gusto siya.

Naguguluhan akong nakatingin sa kanya, itinaas niya ang kanyang kamay tila na nagpapahiwatig na yakapin ko siya, I was scared to hug her.

What if this is just a trap? “Kuya, yakap,” she said once again while smiling, her eyes still black. Her fingers are motioning for me to hug her. “Kuya,” she calls me again. Oh shit—how can I hug her in this situation?

I shook my head and went near her to hug her, but I didn't let my guard down still. I tapped her head while I hugged her tight, binaon naman niya ang kanyang ulo sa aking dibdib.

“Kuya, hiling.” She said, naguguluhan ako sa kanyang sinabi “Kuya, hiling.” She said again. What the fuck is she talking about? “Hiling,” she said again, hugging me.

Ang ibig niya bang sabihin ay humiling ako sa kanya? I was still confused about what she said, but I didn't even realize I was talking about my wish.

Nang matapos kong sabihin ang hiling ko ay bumitaw siya sa pagkakayakap sa akin, she looked at me smiling and stood up. She stepped backward toward me. She suddenly grabbed her heart and handed it to me, smiling. Kitang kita ko kung paano tumagas ang dugo sa kanyang bibig, habang nakangiti ito sa akin at nakalahad ang kanyang kamay na may hawak na puso.

I was stunned to move while I'm just looking at her, her heart still beating even though it's already come out of her body, I can smell her rotten blood, this kid is cursed, though I already know all races in here have this guts to swap their souls.

I still have my cloaks on and all the ragged cloth on my body. I walk towards her, but before I get near to her, she has already turned into ashes and flown in the air. Her heart dropped into the arena and was still beating. I picked it up and swallowed it. My instinct says that I need to eat this thing.

Simula palang na ipinanganak ako ito na ang magiging buhay ko, and I should accept it, so I'm just embracing this shit until I die.

I felt the ability of the kid. It has been passed to me already, I felt burning inside me, I felt like I drank more blood as I ate the heart, the arena started to go back to normal, and the crowd was just silent. I didn't hear anything, not shouting, gossiping, nothing.

They were just looking at me. After that deafening silence, the emcee faked a cough and announced that I was already in the second match of the game, and the crowd started to make noise cheering for my victory,

I walk into the side of the arena to sit on my seat, and Helenora hits me on the head.

“Magaling bata, ang nakuha mong ability ay isang wishing curse,” she says to me while I am just looking at her confused, wishing curse?

“Ang ability na kayang tumupad ng hiling, pero— mabigat ang kapalit,” I widen my eyes.

“Kung inaalala mo ang pag hiling mo sa kanya ay, hindi mangyayari 'yon sapagkat bago niya gawin ang hiling mo ay siya na mismo ang bumawi sa kanyang buhay.” She explained it to me, and it was a big relief to me.

“Nawa'y gamitin mo sa maayos ang mga nakuha mong abilidad bata.” Helenora said, and the emcee started to announce who was next to fight.

Sunod-sunod natapos ang laban ng iba halos nakatuon lang ang atensyon ko sa mga nag lalaban, when suddenly I felt a strong aura looking at me, I immediately looked up, I saw the lady who's fighting in the very beginning, she's just looking at me intensely, what are you thinking now, lady?
