"Master Ves is now recovering. The Healers are trying their best to heal his big wounds, it was really deep kaya medyo matatagalan ang paggamot sa kanya. But don't worry, he's fine."
"What about Emilia? Is she okay? Her temperature is not normal. Nilalamig siya Her body temperature isn't normal." I heard a waves of sounds. Hindi ito masyadong malinaw pero naiintindihan ko. Their voices are so thin na halos hindi ko na marinig.
A hand touched my forehead and my neck. After a long silence, isang mainit na hangin ang bumalot sa buo kong katawan. Parang pinapalipad nito ang buo kong katawan at hindi ko malaman kung bakit ako nahahapdian. I've tried my best to open my eyes but I don't have enough energy to lift them. It's so strange, hindi ko maigalaw ang buo kong katawan. What is happening?
"She'll be okay, she just need some rest para mabawi niya ang nawalang enerhiya sa katawan niya. I also healed her big wound as well as the tiny wounds, as you can see, she was hit by a strong pressure of air kaya nagkaroon siya ng napakalaking sugat at iyang mga pira-pirasong maliliit na sugat dahil sa lakas ng hangin na tumama sa katawan niya. Ano ba talaga ang nangyari? How did she end up like this?" narinig kong sabi ng isang matandang babae. I'm still trying to open my eyes and my mouth but I can't, it's like something is stopping me to open it. Parang wala akong enerhiyang nararamdaman, nanghihina ako.
I can't clearly hear what they are saying, but it's enough for me to think that they're explaining the scene a while ago, I guess. Kung paano ako nakarating dito at si Master Ves.
"For my conclusion, I think someone shielded her using the violent shield. You all know that violent shield is very rare, only the King has that power in this World. What's her name?" I heard an old man.
"Emilia Valem," a guy answered. A hand suddenly touched my forehead and I felt an extreme heat. Sa sobrang init ay halos mamilipit ako sa sakit sa nararamdaman. My eyes suddenly opened and a bunch of people are circling me, including the man who touched my forehead. Maraming tao ang agad na nakita ng mga mata ko. Nakita ko ang puting pader at ang puting kisame. Clinic. Doon ko nalaman na nasa clinic ako.
Naghahabol ako ng hininga at napahawak sa dibdib ko.
"You were awake, aren't you?" isang matandang lalaki ang nagtanong sa akin. Agad kong nakita ang kaniyang puting buhok at bigote. He's still touching my forehead, pero hindi ko na naramdaman iyong napakainit na halos mapunit na iyong balat ko sa noo sa sobrang init. Sa tingin ko ay ginawa niya lamang iyon para mabigyan ako ng lakas at enerhiya.
Tumango ako. Kumurap kurap ako dahil medyo malabo pa ang paningin ko. Umayos ako ng upo noong inalis na ng matanda ang kanyang kamay sa aking noo. My three girls helped me and asked me if I'm feeling okay, tumango ako as an answer and they were relieved by that.
"My eyes are blurry. Anong nangyari? Bakit ang dami ninyo? Sino kayo?" nalilito kong tanong sa kanila. Mga katawan at ulo lamang nila ang nakikita ko. The color of their hair, their shirts, pero hindi ko masyado nakikita ang kanilang mga mukha. Siguro dahil ito sa nangyari kanina, pero hindi ko talaga maalala kung bakit ako nandito. Did Master Ves sliced my body?
Muntik akong mapamura sa naisip ko at agad na tiningnan ang katawan. Napapikit ako nang nakita na wala namang hiwa ang katawan ko. My goodness, akala ko mamamatay na ako.
"You've blacked out after fighting the leader of Lava mortals, Master Ves. And it causes a very large damage to our Canteen Building." natigilan ako sa sinabi ng matandang lalaki. Lumingon ako sa kanya kahit nanlalabo pa rin ang mga mata ko.

FantasyWhen Emilia got the invitation from the Old Nick High, she wasn't interested on it. She doesn't care on going to school, she doesn't want to study because she have her endless money to spend. She doesn't have a thing in studying, wala siyang pakeala...
