We were welcomed by the loud cheers from the thousands of students in our campus. Even the people of Casteria welcomed us by their warm smiles before our van entered Ardent Academia.Gone are the students who throws their hatreds and rants on me,the students who talks bad about me. They are now chanting our names out loud on how they're proud of us.
Mas lalong lumakas ang ingay ng mga students nang bumukas ang magkabilang pinto ng van at nagsi-baba kaming lima.
"WELCOME BACK OUR POWERFUL EMINENTS! WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!"nagulat ako nang lahat sila ay nagsabay-sabay na sumigaw at nagpalakpakan.
"I'm so touched!"maarteng sabi ni Venus.
"Hay nako nga naman kumakalat ang plastic sa Ardent."naiiling na parinig ni Ryan kay Venus na ngayon ay ang sama na ng tingin sa kaniya.
"Meron pa rin palang mga tao na hindi nakaka-appreciate sa mga maliliit na bagay na nagagawa para sa kanila ng ibang tao."maarte at mataray na sambit naman ni Venus.
"Congrats!"salubong sa amin ng six illustrious.
"I have watched you guys and you are all amazing!"natutuwang sabi ni Ziryll.
"Thanks."Venus flipped her hair while Ryan,Raiden and Zinc just simply said thank you.
"Salamat."nahihiyang sabi ko naman.
"Congrats."simpleng sabi naman ni Fiana na ang dalawang kamay ay nasa likuran.
"We're looking forward sa inyo in the upcoming Event ng Ardent."Andee said while smiling.
Event?
"Yup Lay! Event or the called Ardent's Day! Kami ang magli-lead non and your group will depend on what power you have."nangingiting sagot naman ni Rae sa tanong ko sa isipan ko."Say for example..Ryan Leaf..he will be on Eirah's group because his power is somehow related to nature."napatango naman ako at bahagyang napaisip kung saan ako mabibilang na grupo.
Maya-maya pa ay biglang nahawi ang mga students at nagbigay daan sa aming lima para makapasok sa mala-palasyong eskwelahan.
Nakakamiss rin pala kahit isang linggo lang kaming nawala...
Pagpasok namin ay bumungad ang mga lalaking naka-itim at binigay ang aming susi sa dormitoryo namin. Saglit akong napatitig sa susi na ibinigay sa'kin. Black key?
"Uh..sa pagkakatanda ko po ay silver po ang susi ko."
"You're already a noble student Layla Andrada."nanlaki ang mata ko ng sinagot ni headmaster Sherica ang tanong ko.
"Your things are already there and also..your new uniform."she smiled then she left me with my jaw dropped and my mind is still on the process of what she told me.
"Congrats Lay!"natutuwang sabi ni Ryan at bigla akong niyakap.
"Noble na ako??"tanong ko at itinuro pa ang sarili ng humiwalay siya sa yakap. I glanced at the key with the engraved dorm number.
NR3-008
Tumango-tango siya habang natatawa at napawi 'yon ng... "Para kang baliw dahon."she exaggeratedly rolled her eyes on Ryan and flipped her hair before walking towards the elevator.
"Panira talaga 'yong babaeng 'yon kahit kelan..tsk.."napailing na lang si Ryan.
"Congrats Layla,you deserve it."for the first time! Raiden plastered a genuine smile in his lips!
"Congrats Andrada..keep it up."simpleng sambit naman ni Zinc at naglakad na rin.
Maglalakad na rin sana ako ng may umakbay bigla sa'kin na siyang ikinagulat ko. "Woah! Chill Lay! It's just me okay? By the way congratulations!"inalis niya ang kamay niya sa braso ko at itinaas ang parehong kamay ng ambaan ko siya ng suntok.
"Basta ka na lang maka-sulpot,kung di agad ako nakatingin sa'yo suntok ang abot mo sa'kin Kalen!"naiiling na sabi ko at naglakad na kami.
This is actually another achievement for me. Being a noble is such a great achievement for all of the students here and here I am..ang isang baguhan na dapat ay sa Novice pero napunta agad sa norm at nakasali sa world battle then boom! I'm a noble now and i'm proud of it cause I know that I do deserve it just by surviving the battle and out of forty eminents I got the second to the highest points earned.
Pagkarating namin sa noble floor ay naglakad ako papunta sa right wing at hinanap ang aking bagong dorm. Nang makita ang pinto na may NR3-008 ay agad kong ini-unlock ang pinto at binuksan ito.
It's a bit bigger than my dorm and the walls are color black with a white delicate patterns and the white curtains that reached the ground makes the room more elegant and on the right side is my bed with its pastel purple sheets tapos bedside table and a lamp shade then sa tapat ng kama ay ang desk at itim na comfortable chair tapos sa top ay ang bookshelves. On the left side is the walk in closet and the bathroom.
Sa Norm's dormitory ay dalawahan sa isang dorm pero sa Noble ay talagang solo mo though hindi naman na-occupy yung isang bed sa dorm ko noon. I heard tatlo namang students sa isang dorm room sa Novice's.
I checked the walk in closet and there's my clothes and my new uniforms. I can't help but to feel excited on the thought of wearing my uniform that also symbolizes being a noble.
There's also a huge mirror surrounded by circle lights that made it brighter and there's a black glass sliding door connecting the bathroom.I walked inside the bathroom and a circle bath thub welcomed me then there's a bunch of large containers of body wash,shampoos,and such.
After checking my new dorm,I sat on edge of my bed facing the bookshelves. Napakunot ang noo ko ng pumasok sa isipan ko si Darkel!
Nasaan kaya si Darkel?!
Siguro ay bawal ang pet sa noble floor kaya pinakawalan nila si Darkel sa labas,maybe he's just around the campus.
I went near the bookshelves and find the book about this world again. Gusto kong madagdagan ang kaalaman ko tungkol dito sa mundong kabibilangan ko na.
Nang hindi ko nahanap ang libro ay pumili na lang ako ng random book at umupo na ako sa upuan at binuklat ang libro na ipinatong ko sa desk ko. Napaatras ako ng umilaw ang mga letra sa libro at napalitan ang title.
The deity is alive..find her.
