Chapter 5: The Powerless
Dherwicked, Forest
Joner narrowed his eyes once matapos nya mabasa ang nakasulat sa diyaryo.
One of the legendary fire element user, Wendell Anderton was found dead last night.
He can't believe this. Ang sabi sa article, some rogue assassin killed him that night, and he was found dead with a big hole on his stomach. He knows wendell, he mastered the element of fire very well. Wendell is one of his fellow elemental friends. Hindi lang basta basta rogue assassin ang nakapatay sakanya. Hindi sya tinawag na legendary of fire element for nothing, something just did not add up with this case.
'There's only two possibilities, a water elemental user ang nakapatay sakanya, but it must be a master level as well para may laban sila against kay wendell. The last time I checked, nasa ocean ngayon si edwin, the legendary water element user, so its impossible. The other way to kill him is a powerful magic than fire or most of the elements. Dark magic.' Joner thought to himself. Hindi na sya nagdalawang isip at dali daling pumunta sakanyang opisina.
Cyrus opened his left eye and watch joner through the window from the outside, he noticed the increase heart rate of the old man. He glanced at the newspaper na binabasa ni joner kanina.
Joner stumbles in his office. He searches for a certain crystal. He let out a sigh of relief once he found what he was looking for. He put a little amount of his mana, biglang umilaw ng pula ang transparent crystal.
"Joner? It's been so long, you will only call if there's emergency. What's wrong this time?" The familiar voice echoes around the silence office.
"Theodore, I need you to ask something. Nabasa mo na ba yung nakasulat sa diyaryo?"
"Yes, I am fully aware kung ano ang nangyare kay wendell. We are doing our best to find the rogue." Theodore said with a lace of sadness on his voice.
"Don't you find it suspicious? How wendell's life ended in a hand of just a rogue assassin?"
"Yes. May kutob ako na there is more than it meets the eye."
"Then we should investigate further. Nga pala, how's the prince? Any clue for his future plans?"
"Joner, the prince left yesterday. He won't come back for a couple of months. Walang nakakaalam kung ano ang dahilan. I sent some spy after him secretly, but they lost the sight of him. Now, I don't know where he is and what he is planning and as for the king..."
"The king? What happened?"
"I'm afraid he's dead."
"Shit."

"Cleo likes to collect interesting things for himself! Cleo is selfish, he will get what he wants!" Masayang sabi ni cleo before letting out a maniacal laugh. Song who is sitting on calton's back suddenly feels uncomfortable. Hindi nila sineseryoso ang mga pinagsasabi ni cleo out of nowhere usually, but sometimes it's too disturbing for them.
