Chapter 53: King and Queen
After Kreios successfully executed his plan, first, by using the Ancient Quillper to provoke me and trap me inside his empire, there had been no news about me. Kung nagkaroon man ay iyon ay parte ng naging mga plano namin ni Kreios para makalabas kami sa palasyo at magawa ang misyon na ito.
But wouldn't this be a good comeback? The King and Queen of Mudelior, while in the middle of their honeymoon and after they attended the wedding from Parsua Deltora had a surprise visit to one of the biggest Entertainment District in Nemetio Spiran.
The Queen who pretended to be a slave greeted them with her powerful song, with the king's sandstorm.
At first, Kreios and I wanted to do this mission in secret that we had to ask for Juniper and the Viardellon's help to make it possible. We agreed that Kreios and I couldn't just take the risk of getting Atlas' attention so he could sabotage our mission to find the Holy Water.
Pero matapos kong makita ang lahat sa ilalim ng tubig, doon ko napagtanto na para saan ang pilit namin pagtatago sa misyong ito gayong sa umpisa pa lang ay alam na ni Atlas na gagawin namin ito?
It was as if we were played by his stringed fingers— like a puppeteer, satisfied to watch his puppets in his play. That's why right now, I wouldn't hesitate to create huge news and let him know that I had found it. That despite the trap he'd devised, and how he used Livius against us, I'd manage to survive and not drown in despair.
Kreios and I might have agreed that the fight against Atlas would always be between the women from the prophecy, Rosh, Zen, Blair, Seth, and Tobias, but that didn't mean that I'd just had to accept his attack directly at me.
Napapaisip ako kung paano ito nagagawa lahat ni Atlas. He was literally the villain of this world, but he had the time to discover all our weaknesses, and used them against us, while he kept himself alive with an almost-dead mate beside him.
Of course, in this world, the worst enemy that anyone can ever have is a desperate, nearly insane mate with an almost-dead bride. If he isn't a threat to his own life— he is a threat to everyone.
Bagay na baliktad niya kay Finn... o masasabing kong lamang niya sa kapatid ko. Atlas might be doing evil things, but no matter how sickly his mind was, it was still intact— he had the control. While my brother, he could kill himself and the creatures around him.
Nagpatuloy ako sa pag-awit habang nagtatakbuhan na ang mga nilalang sa lugar na iyon dahil sa lalong pagtindi ng pagtaas ng buhangin. Hindi pa rin tumitigil si Rosh sa pagpapaingay ng tambol dahilan kung bakit higit na nagkagulo ang lahat.
"Are you planning to kill them all?" tanong ni Pryor.
He was just a huge black bird, but he quickly transformed himself and positioned behind me. Tumigil na ako sa pag-awit at lumingon sa kanya. "I am just scaring them. No one has to escape. I will have my first speech."
"You mean, we have to trap them? They are running too fast now. Baka may makatakas na."
"Can you do that?"
Umiling siya. "Rosh can do that."
"He's busy with the drums."
He looked around. "I can't trap all of them. I don't have the power to block all the pathways—" umangat ang kilay ko.
I never thought that Pryor Le'Vamuievos could be like this. He clearly wanted to do something.
"Why don't you just go and find her? She must be in prison. She can trap the creatures." Nakangiwi na ako sa kanya.
