Bataille De La Magia (Auregon Trilogy Book 2) - UNDER REVISION

Chapter 43: Sports Festival (Revised)

Shiro

Sports Festival is weeks from now and our hands are now full from all the work we need to take care of for the one-week event. It was one of the events of the school that were planned thoughtfully because of how hectic it could be. The truth is, 'yung mga sports clubs sana ang mag-ma-manage ng programs at schedules ng intramurals pero nag-volunteer ang sports committee na sila na lang daw ang gagawa nu'n.

From the performances to the whole flow of the events. The sports to the people in-charge of each event. Sa sobrang busy namin ay nawalan na kami ng oras para sa mga sarilli namin.

Ang isa pang pinagpaplanuhan namin ngayon ay ang mga maglalaro sa iba't-ibang sports at magiging representative namin sa Mr. and Ms. Intramurals. The whole class decided to take care of the matter after we picked our team color from a jar.

They volunteered me to pick the color and since I have no choice, I go right ahead and pulled a paper from the jar. Nang basahin ko ang kulay na nakasulat sa papel, agad akong nanlumo. Seryoso, itong kulay na naman.

"Green." I muttered. At nagsimula na ang mga reklamo...

"Seryoso ka ba? Green na naman." angal ni Alfred.

"Bakit hindi man lang ba mag-iba kulay natin!" Sigaw ni Yuki.

"Hindi ba pwedeng bumunot kayo ulit?" singhal naman ni Nikki.

"Hindi pwede, unfair sa ibang klase 'yon." I mumbled, disappointedly.

"Ano ba 'yan!" sabay-sabay nilang sigaw.

Wala na rin silang nagawa at nagtunggo na kami sa patalakay ng mga maglalaro at mag-re-represent ng class namin. Segregating the whole class in different sports turned out to be easier than we expected at mabilis kaming napunta sa pagpili ng magiging Mr. and Ms. Intramurals namin.

Nagkaroon kami ng nomination in both categories. Yuki, Miku and Claude got nominated and unsurprisingly, Claude won and will be representing our class. Kahit na ayaw niya, wala naman na siyang magagawa dahil ipinilit talaga naming siya. Angela did most of the convincing and of course, he can't say no when it comes to her.

As for the Ms. Intramurals, Anne, Sheena and Angela got nominated. Angela withdraw right away. Claude pouted at her while Angela only rolled her eyes. Naiwan si Anne at Sheena sa mga na-nominate and s we put it into a vote, Anne won and has to represent our class.

"Fine, 'edi ako, bahala n kung anong kahinatnat." Anne muttered.

"Kami na bahala sa costume at performance niyo." Sheena volunteered, pulling Miku along.

"Nandamay ka pa." Miku mumbled.

"Wala 'kang takas sa gawain, hindi ka prinsipe dito."

"I might be needing the boys' help." Claude stated. "Lalo na sa naiisip kong performance."

"Kami na bahala sa'yo. Di'ba Storm, Reiki." Yuki assured.

"Oo na lang." tugon ni Reiki. Storm only sighed and nodded along.

I continued my research every night, mostly going straight into a dead-end. Though not tonight, since we stumble upon an information that might prove useful for us. Each shrine where the Elemental Crystals reside are hidden away from the world and is being protected by an elemental creature. Some ancient magic items could also be used in locating the crystals. An example of it is the Mystic Ball.

Thanks to Shira's knowledge, we also found the vague location of each crystal and shrines. Water, Earth, Nature, and Light are found in Auregon; the Sapphire of Water specifically can be found underwater, some says it could be found in the lost city of Atlantis. The Amethyst of Darkness is found in the Underworld while the Garnet of Spirit is found here in the Mortal World. As for the Ruby of Fire, the location is unsure. It is either in the Mortal World or in Auregon. It is said to be the only crystal that has been passed down secretly and does not have a shrine.
