Magnus Academy: The Cursed Blood

Chapter Forty-Nine

A Mess

Andrea's POV

Pilit siyang tumayo kahit nahihirapan na. A normal person would probably pity her condition right now, pero sa gitna kami ng laban. I don't care about my opponents in a middle of a fight. That's how I won battles 'till now. At hindi magbabago yun.

Tinaas niya ang kamay niya na may hawak na katana. At first it puzzled me, pero tumawa lang siya. I didn't expect her to be so tough. Umatake ako papunta sa kaniya, pero dahil sa mga natamo kong sugat, mas mahina ang mga galaw ko kumpara kanina. I did a roundhouse kick all of the sudden pero nahawakan niya ang paa ko but I turned myself in the air and gave her a punch. She let go of my foot at napaatras.

"Lalabanan kita Andy Andersone. I will make you use your ability and weapons." That's what she's doing though.

Aatake na sana ako pero bigla na naman siyang nawala. I looked around pero hindi ko siya nakita. I looked above me, at huli na para mailagan siya. She threw herself at me with her katana para isaksak sa akin ito. The ground broke underneath me while she pinned me down.

Nakaupo siya sa harapan ko with her katana above her. Binaba niya ng mabilis ang weapon niya, but I fortunately shifted my head to the right pero nagkaroon parin ng kaonting cut sa left cheek ko. Bumaon sa lupa ang katana niya but she didn't bother pulling it off. Sinuntok niy ako but again, ginalaw ko ang ulo ko sa gilid. She did again for how many times at hindi niya ako natamaan.

"You're persistent. Kailan mo gagamitin ang ability mo?!" Sigaw niya at hinawakan ang leeg ko ng dalawa niyang kamay.

She held my neck tighter every second. Pinipilit kong kinukuha ang kamay niya mula dito. But she won't let go! Namumula na ako. Hindi ako makahinga and I can't shake her off. Yung feeling na ang hangin nagtitipon na sa ulo mo and any second puputok ito. Sinuntok ko siya sa may mukha pero mahina ito, I can't keep my strength up anymore.

"What's with that normal punch? I'll kill you." She warned. I'm tired of hearing her warnings!

Sa sobrang hirap huminga, wala na akong magagawa. I summoned three daggers. One above her, the other from her left at ang isa ay sa kanan niya. She seemed surprised a bit pero wala siyang ginawa. I let the daggers go at tatamaan na sana siya pero mabilis niya lamang inilagan ang mga ito. In the end, tumalon na siya palikod.

I sat up coughing and panting. I let my daggers attack her for the meantime while I regain my energy. Nakakapagod. Napatayo na ako at timing namang hinugot niya ang katana niya sa tabi ko amd turned herself around para tamaan ako nito. My daggers quickly blocked off her katana. She can't attack me that easily now that I summoned my daggers. Compared to my limit, a hundred, three will never be enough.

"You finally summoned your weapons huh?" She said smirking. Kahit anong bilis niya sa pag-aatake ay ganoon parin na sinasangga ito ng nga daggers ko. I barely am even doing anything.

Alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi ako mabilis katulad niya. But I can pour my spiritual energy to my daggers and make them do all the work to keep up with her speed. Napaatras na naman siya nang marealise na hindi niya ako matatamaan.

"Giving up?" Asar kong tanong.

"In your dreams."

Tumalon siya sa may pader, nagulat akong makita na tumatayo siya dito. Walking like she's on the ground. Hindi ko alam kung paano niya nagagawa yan, pero hindi ko alam kung ano na naman ang balak niya.

"Ninjas are trained to be able to do this. We divert some of our energy to our feet so that we can stick to the walls and any objects like this." Wika niya as if bragging.
