Lucky's POV

Jorvina and Linglie greeted us as soon as we returned to the neighborhood.

"What happened?" Tanong si Jorvina at nagpatawag ng manggagamot upang gamutin ang sugat ni Alas.

Nagmamadaling lumapit ang ibang Anthegwere para tulungan si Alas na makapasok sa bahay na tinutuluyan namin.

"A vengeful monster rushed at the Anthegwere." Zaphael said.

"A monster?"

"Yes, an Ogre." After I stated that, the two exchanged glances, their brows equally creased.

"Why is there an Ogre here? Malabong magkaro'n ng Ogre sa Catrus Land. Dystria is too far from this place—this is impossible."

"Dystria?" Zaphael and I asked at the same time.

"Dystria is an island populated by many types of Ogres. And I can't be wrong when I say that no one has the ability to release the Ogres on that island except Sierra—Sierra and Noah, the two of them gathered around the Ogres when they were wreaking havoc and then used their combined power to put a seal on the island that no one else has the ability to break except the two. But why is an Ogre here—" Jorvina's words were cut short as we heard a scream and spotted a young man running while injured.

We immediately ran towards it. "T-the L-leader..." The last thing he said then pointed to the way he came from before collapsing and losing consciousness.

Nagkatinginan kami, nanlaki ang mga mata namin nang mapagtantong nasa kabilang bundok ang pinuno ng lugar na ito, na siya namang tiyuhin ni Jorvina.

"Jun, you handle this first. Order everyone to stay at home initially and don't leave." After Jorvina ordered her cousin, we quickly went to the farm. Two mountains are at a distance from here.

"Jorvina, why don't we just use a portal to get us to the other mountain?" Napahinto sila dahil sa mungkahi ko. Tinapik ni Jorvina ang likod ng ulo niya at tumango. Dahil sa kanyang pag-aalala, hindi niya naisip na gamitin ang portal.

When we entered the portal that Jorvina made I was expecting a dizzying feeling but I frowned because we were able to use the portal normally.

"This portal can be used without feeling dizzy." Zaphael was whispering to me.

"Look!" I pulled them when I saw a tree flying towards our place.

"Uncle—" Agad na tinakpan ni Linglie ang bibig ni Jorvina dahil sisigaw na sana ito at kung nagkataon ay baka makuha namin ang atensyon ng dalawang Ogre.

Tumingin ako sa paligid at nanliit ang mga mata ko nang makitang hawak ng isang Ogre ang pinuno ng lupaing ito. Nakasabit ito sa kanyang baywang habang nakatali ang kaniyang katawan.

"Jorvina, Linglie, draws the attention of the two Ogres, and you, Zaphael, support me. Prepare your shield, and make me a vine as well. I'll take the lead." They nodded and started doing what I said.

While the two Ogres were occupied, I nodded to Zaphael, and he created a vine that I used to get close to an Ogre, much like before. I snatched the knife from my knee and hurled it towards the rope that was wrapped around Jorvina's uncle. I was astonished when it hit but it came back to me, so I jumped.

I can't be mistaken, I struck the rope, but what happened?

I tried again, but it came back to me, and I was just shocked since Ogre was gazing at me. It was too late to flee, so as his left hand struck me, I spluttered and was released from the rope
