Monstrous Fantasy

7: Seven Sanctuary

Alistair's POV

I opened my eyes and I realized that I'm inside of my room.

I tried to remember what recently happened and when I remembered, I immediately stood up and looked for Irene. And luckily, she is sleeping on her bed.

Napabuntong-hininga ako at napahilamos sa mukha. Did I finished it?

Pinikit ko ang aking mga mata at inalala ang nangyari.

I used my flame to burn all of those spirits away, and then...........

"Sleep peacefully..love."

Napailing ako at nag-isip ng mariin. Why does my memories seems blurry when I tried to remember the owner of that voice?

"Gab? Zen? Help me.." tinawag ko silang dalawa sa isip ko.

"What is it?" tanong ni Gab.

"Did something happened when I passed out?" tanong ko. Walang sumagot agad sa kanila, ngunit alam kong nakikinig sila. "There is something missing in my head..." dagdag ko pa.

"Missing on your head? You mean some of your brain cells, maybe? Pfft..." napairap nalang ako sa sinabi ni Zen. Pilosopo..

"None. When you passed out, we can't see anything that time. So, we're sorry."

"I see.."

"Who are you talking to, Ali?" napalingon agad ako kay Irene na nagkukusot ng mata.

"Me? Uhmm.. I'm just talking to..uhh.. myself! It's my habit..i guess?" napakamot ako sa ulo sa sinabi ko. Really?

"Ganun ba? Eh, kamusta ka na?" tanong naman niya.

"I'm cool.." sagot ko kaya napatawa siya.

"Hindi mo kasi agad sinabing Demon Slayer ka or Necromancer chuchu? Grabe ang lupet kaya nun." napakunot ako sa sinabi niya. Me? A necromancer?

"W-What do you mean?" naguguluhan kong tanong.

"Ali, you drained all those bad spirits through your body! Then after that, everything get back to normal..but, you passed out." pagpapaliwanag niya. I passed out?

There is still something wrong...even I'm inside my dimension that time, I can still sense the outside of my realm. I know that something happened other than that.

"Wala na bang ibang nangyari?" tanong ko pa. Lumawak ang ngiti niya at tumili. Wait what?

"Oo nga pala! Binuhat ka ni Ace!!!!!" kinikilig niyang sabi. Ace? Who's that?

"Ace?" tanong ko.

"Yes! As in Accell James Xavier! Yung leader ng Seven Sanctuary!"

(Axel is the pronunciation of Accell)

(Exseyvier is the pronunciation of Xavier)

"Accel James Xavier?" napaisip ako sa sinabi niya.

"Sleep peacefully...love."

Napatayo ako sa memoryang iyon. Could he be?

No! Hindi pwede.. Walang pwedeng makapasok sa realm na ginawa ko.

Unless...

"If it's someone powerful.." sabi ni Gab. Yes. Someone powerful...
