Chapter 29
"Are you sure you're feeling fine?" Tanong ni Rumi sa kanyang kapatid. Nagkamalay na ito ilang minuto ang nakakalipas and he is eagerly assisting his brother in case there was a side effect caused by the revival spell. Sa ilang beses na ginamit niya ang revival spell ay napag-alaman niyang minsan ay may mga parte ng ala-ala na nakakalimutan ang taong ni-revive o 'di kaya ay may parte ng katawan na nahihirapang igalaw.
Tus rolled his eyes at his brother. "Kuya Rumi, that's your tenth time asking that. I'm really fine. I'll just feel rusty if I stayed still." Sagot naman nito.
Bumuntong-hininga si Rumi at saka tinanguan ang kapatid. "Fine. Just tell me if you feel something weird." Sabi nito nang may maalala. "By the way, tell me what happened."
Hindi na kailangan pang i-elaborate ni Rumi ang kanyang tanong dahil naiintindihan naman ni Tus ang gusto nitong malaman. He wants to know kung anong nangyari bago siya mamatay. Umismid siya dahil alam niya na ichi-chismis siya nito sa iba pang kapatid at sa mga magulang.
Sinimulan ni Tus na magkwento sa kapatid simula noong umalis siya patungong Plenne city. Since hindi pa sila masyadong nagkakausap simula noong umalis siya sa Clotte city ay ikinuwento niya ang kanyang mga adventures. Mula sa paghahanap nang bagong tuklas na sun's flower, ang pagkakakilala sa tumakas na Kannoa kingdom's royalties, ang mga humahabol sa kanila, mga natagpuang lugar at kagamitan sa loob ng ruins, ang malaking puting white snake monster, hanggang sa naging huling sandali niya noong natagpuan niya sila Austin na siyang tumapos ng kanyang buhay.
"Why are you always getting involve with royalties?" Tanong ni Rumi.
Umiling si Rumi at nagkibit-balikat. "How would I know? Maybe my soulmate is a royalty? Or I will be a king someday?" Biro naman ni Tus na tinawanan ni Rumi.
"If that happens, the only king you'll be is king of barbarians." Sabi nito kaya tumawa na rin si Tus.
"But Tus, you should leave this place. Aside from the Valscom knights, you should be wary of those Kannoan pursuers. It would be better if you leave with me." Biglang pag-iba ni Rumi nang usapan.
Umiling si Tus. "I can't, kuya. Not yet. I told you I am searching for sun's flower. All those sun's flower I found days ago were all burned."
"But I won't be assured if there are still dangers around you. You know that our family members have the same opinion." Sagot naman ni Rumi. Earlier, habang wala pang malay si Tus ay kinontak na ni Rumi ang kanilang pamilya upang ibalita sa mga ito ang nangyari. Of course, although they are relieved dahil naisagawa ni Rumi ang revival spell, nag-aalala pa rin sila sa lalaki kaya ibinilin nang mga ito na huwag pabayaan si Tus. Rumi has the plan to the same even if they don't ask him for that.
"I really need those flowers, kuya. Maybe I can find some on the other ruins, or maybe there are some untouched flowers deeper the ruins that I missed."
Kaagad na umiling si Rumi. "If you really need it, we can purchase it to the black market. Or else, I'll come with you." Pinal na sabi nito. Napabuntong hininga na lang si Tus dahil alam niyang hindi niya mababago ang isip nang kapatid.
"Fine, let's go to the other ruins nearby. But don't you have other places you should be at?" Tanong nito sa kapatid. Sa pagkakaalam ni Tus, noong huling nakausap niya ang kapatid ay nasa isang magubat na kontinente ito, exploring the place, mapping it, and searching for some sort of treasures.
"I let one of my teammates to handle the expedition. He's great at handling things so they'll be fine." Sagot ni Rumi. Nagkibit-balikat na lang si Tus. If his brother said so, then it should really be fine.
Since Tus just woke up, minabuti ni Rumi na pagpahingahin muna ang kapatid nang isang araw bago ito payagan na magtungo sa kalapit na ruins. Hindi na nakaangal si Tus dahil kung gagawin niya iyon ay maaaring hindi na siya nito payagan at piliting isama paalis sa lugar para sumama rito. Dahil doon, Rumi is going to drive the shelter to the nearest city kung saan mas safe na magpahinga kumpara sa open area.
