Chapter Five

Hindi ako nakapagsalita agad dahil muli siyang tumingin sa akin. The way he looked at me, I feel like I had evoked some scars from the past. Later on, I heard him gasped before holding the knife steadily. He looked at me again for a second before turning his back against all of us.

"Since I'm already holding a knife, I'll just probably teach you how to properly throw it," he told us with a very serious voice. "First and foremost, you have to identify the most ideal throwing knife."

Naglakad siya muli papalapit sa kinaroroonan ng mga weapons. He gestured us to follow him so we all walked towards it too. I heard everyone whispering, it's like they are all amused upon seeing so many kinds of weapons in front. Nanatili naman akong tahimik at nagmamasid na lamang sa lugar.

Hindi ko na dapat pang ibinuka ang bibig ko kanina. Hindi ko alam pero parang kinakapos ako ng hininga habang inaalala ang ekspresyon ng mukha ni Asher nOOng sinagot niya ako. I glanced at him. He's now seriously scanning the different types of knives in front.

"You have an unlimited choice of knives. Different knives require different techniques," turo niya sa iba't ibang kutsilyong nakadisplay sa harapan. "The most ideal throwing knife should be thick enough so it won't bend. Just like this one..." wika niya at may ipinakita sa aming isang klase ng kutsilyo.

While I'm looking at the knives in front, hindi ko maiwasang hindi maalala ang gabi kung kailan ako pumasok sa portal. Someone threw a knife on my direction, giving me a cut on my arm. Wala sa sariling tinignan ko ang braso ko. Wala nang bakas ng sugat doon. Ashley is a very skilled healer.

Ipinilig ko ang ulo ko at iwinaksi na lamang iyon sa isipan. I should really stop thinking about the past. Kahit kailan ay hindi na mababago iyon. I should focus more on what's happening now. It's the most important.

"Next, the knife must have a sharp point, not sharp edges." Binitawan niya ang kaninang hawak na kutsilyo at may muling dinampot na isa. "Exactly like this one," sambit niya at ipinakita sa amin ang isa pang kutsilyo.

Rinig ko ang pagtango ng mga kasama ko. I also heard some giggles from the girls so I curiously looked at them.

"He's hot." Sa mga bulungan ay iyon lang ang naintindihan ko bago sila muling humagikhik.

I rolled my eyes. Typical girls who like physical appearance more than the attitude. Inalis ko ang atensyon sa kanila at muling binaling ito sa harapan.

"A knife with a small hole or a series of small holes are more prone to breakage. A knife with a minimal perforation will be a better choice than any other knives. It's important so the blades won't be shattered."

I sighed. I can't help but to agree with those girls. He's really hot and the way he teaches us is so cool. It's like he does this frequently. He's so confident and----

Wait, pinupuri ko ba ang lalaking iyan? Of course not, Athena! No. Iniling ko ang ulo ko at nagpatuloy na lamang sa pakikinig.

"So, here is the most idealistic kind of knife that we can use for today's lesson. However, you should also know how to properly throw the other kinds of it. Besides, you wouldn't have a time to choose a knife if you are in the middle of a battle. Any knives would do. So it's important for all of you to know everything." Nagkibit balikat siya at hinawakan ang isang kutsilyong nagfit sa lahat ng kondisyon na binigay niya kanina.

"Now, I will demonstrate how to throw it perfectly towards a certain target. Be attentive and watch my every moves. Sa susunod ay kayo na ang gagawa nito." He positioned himself in front of the human sized target. Nakatarak pa rin doon ang kutsilyong itinapon niya kanina noong nakatayo pa si Reo sa harapan no'n.
