The Missing Phantom Of The Graveyard

[4]

   ༺𓆩Veshniu's P. O. V.𓆪༻

Parang insulto nang tumama ang mahinang hangin sa harapan ko, tanging nag-iisang tuyo na cactus lang ang bumungad sa'kin habang nakatuon ang mga mata ko sa walang hangganang desyerto.

Fuck. I'm doomed.

Napasabunot ako sa bunbunan ng ulo ko at sinipa ang buhangin sa paanan ko—forgetting that the wind is flowing in my direction—napakain ako ng de-oras ng disyerto.

"Dang!"

Umubo–ubo ako at kinusot-kusot ang mga mata ko.

"Argh!"

I sat in the middle of dessert, pinagpag ko ang buhangin sa mukha at buhok ko.

"This fvcking life—!"

This is hell! I will really die young kung lahat ng kamalasan umulan sa akin nang ganto!

Kagat-kagat ang ibabang labi na tumayo ako at nagpagpag.

"Dang it, I can do this..." I muttered under my breath.

Humahalo sa pawis ko ang buhangin na tumama sa mukha ko kanina dahilan para maging kulay tsokolate ang maputing balat ko.

Kahit anong isip ko, hindi ko maintindihan ba't napunta ako dito.

Did I fail at chanting spells?

Para akong binuhusan ng malamig na tubig at namutla.

"Shit..." no, I need to calm down.

I am so proficient at opening the portal, so that will be really impossible.

I made sure that all trainees will be safe at that time. Also, the portal shows the image of the orphanage when I cast the spell.

"I'm the only one who got lost..."

That's the most sure conclusion... and if it's the case, then someone had stronger spatial power than me, enough to defy the gates I made.

Nakagat ko ang labi ko at naglakad, I couldn't see anything other than endless yellow sand, and sun. Nakakunot ang noo ko habang naglalakad.

I had only one bottle and my weapon. A Kyoketsu-shoge style weapon, a double-edged blade, with another blade attached near the hilt at a 45–60 degree angle.

Wala na akong pagkain. Kiinain ko na lahat ng kamote na baon ko kagabi—this fvcking glutton mouth of mine!

I continued to walk, Kahit gaano pa kalayo 'yan o kahit pa ilang daang metro yan, it's still much better than dying in the middle of unknown desserts.

I can't open the portal. There's a cool down for about four hours to use my skill again. Other than that, kailangan ko rin malaman kung saan ang eksaktong lugar na ito para masiguro ko na tama ang pinag-gagawa ko.

Pero... natigil ang paa ko nang makita ko ang isang sign di kalayuan.

"W-What the heck..."

Sahara Desert.

Nakaramdam ako ng kakaibang enerhiya. This power, this wind, it wasn't normal at all!

I already felt it before.... It was disastre....

Millions of thoughts corrupt my brain. Why am I here? This is the exact location that Rayum and Natti talk about.

The place of mission. The place with weird energy.

Parang nagtayuan ang lahat ng balahibo ko sa katawan, now that I am here, it was all or nothing. I had to investigate even just the tip so I could return not empty handed.
