The Royal Knights (Completed)

Chapter 15

The Mirror

“The flesh of devout servant.”

What is it? Where am I? What's happening?

It is the fetus that I've seen earlier this morning. He's lying in a cold stone with a bizzare pattern on it.

And there's a few people here, maybe the servants. But there are only three.

“Potent snake venoms.”

I looked again at the fetus and its servant. His right wrist stopped from bleeding. Is the snake dead?

Tatlo ang nakalaban namin kanina pero hindi sila ang nasa harap ko ngayon. Lumingon pa 'ko sa paligid pero kami lang ang nandito.

“And...”

“Fuckin'—” napahawak ako sa leeg ko. What the fuck? Napaupo ako sa sakit.

“The blood of a foe.”

Ang flesh, ang venom at ang dugo ko, he put all of that in a pot. He slit the fetus' arm at matapos niyang haluin ang tatlo sa pot ay binuhos niya doon. Is it what he's talking about? Is today is the day that he'll be reborn?

Medyo nanlalabo na ang paningin ko. Masyadong malalim ang pagkakahiwa sa leeg ko. I tried to stand but I failed.

Kahit nanlalabo ang mata ko ay nakita ko pa rin ang paglutang ng fetus. It's releasing a black mist around.

And the three servant went on a different spot on this place, making a triangle. They raised they're hands and something's coming out from their body. Soul?

“A touch of a soul from a servant.”

“A touch of a soul from a servant.”

“A touch of a soul from a servant."

“A touch of a soul from a servant.”

Napaurong ako. Their soul is coming at the fetus. And slowly, from a fetus it became a lad.

“You shall take your time, my Lord.”

“Fuckin' shit!” I gasped in horror. Napaupo ako at napahawak sa dibdib ko.

“Iris!” nagulat ako nang makitang lahat sila ay nandito.

“Hi? Why are you in my room?” si Elliot lang ang tanging nakaupo sa gilid ko at lahat sila ay nakatayo, nakapaligid sa'kin. Si Captain ay nasa pintuan lang.

“We're scared on what's happening to you.” Shouka said. Gumagalaw nanaman ang tenga nito. Ang cute niya talaga.

“Well, I'm fine as you can see.”

“Well, you're not as we can see.” ginaya lang ako ni Asta.

“Look.” napalingon ako kay Rinslet. Kinuha niya ang maliit na salamin sa lamesa ko at hinarap sa akin.

Ang maputla kong mukha ay lalo pang namutla at nanlamig ang katawan ko.

My neck. The unceasing bleeding.

So that explains why Elliot is sitting beside me. He's treating me.

“I—” feeling ko ay natuyuan ako ng lalamunan. “I can treat it by myself.” kahit papaano ay nakapagsalita ako. It's good that I'm sitting here in my bed. They can't notice my trembling body.
