The Tale of the Guardian

10

"I'll...just check on Loisa" we turn our heads towards Ashly. The group was silent and then she quickly walked away.

"Psh! She didn't even check on me. She really doesn't care, huh?" bulong bulong ni Asha. The boys were silent again and I was a little annoyed.

"She was actually bawling her eyes out. And was madly banging the barrier 'til it had dents just to get you out. I don't think a person could do that when they don't actually care" dinidiinan ko ang bawat salita para mas maintindihan niya.

This people are too strong they could literally blow up the whole school. But they are also too weak by being scared of rejections.

Asha pouted and turn to look at Ashly's back. I felt a nudge in my left side and saw Flame nudging me. When I turn to look at him, he was also pouting his lips.

Tinampal tuloy ni Leven ang bibig niya.

"Sofia's coming this way" saad niya habang hawak hawak ang bibig ni Flame.

Lumingon kami at nakitang papalapit ang pinsan ni Twilight. She already wear her jacket off and now she's just wearing her tube top.

"You're seriously wearing that while roaming the academy?"

My brows furrows with Flame's comment. Napatingin din si Sofia sa suot niya.

"Why? May maipagmamalaki naman ah?" And then she cupped both of her chests and made it bounce.

I was shock. Her's was really...big. Napadungaw tuloy ako.

"Oh damn" Twilight was now massaging his temples and is closing his eyes. He seems stressed.

Nilingon ko si Flame and parang iba na ang templa ng mood niya. Napataas tuloy ang kilay ko. He's seriously pissed that his brows nearly aligns.

"I needed them both in the Head Master's office, boys." Light steps forward. Natatabunan na tuloy ako.

"Why?" He was even the first to asked.

"'Coz I need them both?" Sofia said like she was answering a dumb question.

"Come on! Ako mapapagalitan dahil sa inyo!" I heard a snap and when I opened my eyes I wasn't in the field anymore.

"So you could link?" Was the first question I've heard and was followed by a deafening silence.

But my heart was seriously beating too loud and fast.

"Head Master Rin--"

The Head Master was nowhere near a forty year old man. Nor have wrinkles, or a visible crinkles. He looks like a 20 year old boy. With a specs on.

"I'm not asking you, Miss Bellue" Asha immediately shut her mouth. He is smiling but at the same time he isn't, 'coz he's basically releasing his strong presence. Like a fair warning saying 'don't play with me kids'.

"I'm asking you, Miss Villaluna" I swallowed hard, I am really intimidated.

So this is how I get caught. Would Asha still sees me as a friend if she confirms I'm a guardian? The thought of them using me as a reinforcement or a back up doesn't seems sweet. It actually...pains me  just by thinking about it.

"I could...sir" I trailed off. His smile widens.

"I am a g---" he cut me off.

"Mem'rist" napakunot ang noo ko.

"You're a mem'rist, aren't you?" He stood up from his seat and walked towards me. Agad kaming nagkatinginan ni Asha. She is widely smiling at me.

"She is, sir. She could also read my memory" napatingin ako kay Asha. She knew I read her memories?

"So Miss Bellue is your memior?" Napahawak ako sa ulo.

Based on what I remembered a Mem'rist is a rare skill. It is a skill which a caster could read a memory and could link with one caster which is called a memoir. A Mem'rist skill comes from the Earth Attributes, just like Leven. It's just that Leven had the Healing and Life skills. While they thought I had the Mem'rist skill because I linked and read Asha's memory by accident.

"I am...?" I wasn't sure either, sir. Napatango tango lang siya habang naglalakad pabalik sa upuan niya.

"Transfer them in Level 1, Sofia" gulat kaming nag katinginan ni Asha.

"No/No" bigla ko nalang nabulalas. Napalingon ako kay Asha na against din sa idea.

I just have to hang in here for 4 months. I don't want to hang out with troublesome kids.

"I just want you to know that I'm transfering you to Level 1 because you two are special. Being a Mem'rist and a Memoir is not a simple relationship, Miss Villaluna and Miss Bellue. If you tried linking once again, one of you would end up dead" napakurap kurap ako. I quickly turn to look at Asha. And I couldn't read her expression.

"How" lang ang naibulalas niya.

"One would be suffocated with Mana." She pointed at Asha.

"One would be deprived, and a 10% mana left could get you killed" now he is looking at me and as well as Asha.

"Her mana doesn't regenerate normally, sir--" he cut her off again.

"That's a very bad news for a Mem'rist, Miss Bellue. If she and you  knows this fact then the both of you shouldn't have tried linking in the first place"

"But we didn't know---" he snapped his fingers. Napatigil tuloy sa pagsasalita si Asha.

"Exactly! You don't know this facts, that is why I'm transfering you to Level 1. Mas improve ang learnings at mas malawak ang information. n addition, someone could also keep an eye on you both" wala kaming nasabing iba pa ni Asha. Nagkatinginan lang kami habang may pinipirmahan na siyang mga dokumento.

"Here" we got the signed papers from him.

"Your things are already teleported to the Level 1 dorm and--" that's when Flame came banging on the door.

The door just opened on its own when Head Master snapped his fingers. Then we saw the red haired kid who's hands are up in the air. I guess it was how he knock the door. A black haired kid, a green hair kid with his crooked glasses and the white hair kid who's frowning.

"You're transfering them in Level 1?" She was the first one to speak up.

"I don't want both of them in Level 1!" She scream and the whole room went silent.

"Do you think we want to be in Level 1?! We were force to be in Level 1!" Asha's screamed much louder but her voice was cracking in the end because she can't hold back her sobs.

She is crying...

• Healing Skills- a caster could heal wounds. (Just like how Leven healed Asha)
• Life Skills- a caster that could make a plant grow an incredible and fast paced. And could control and be used in combat battles.
