PROJECT: Demon Annihilation

9: Blaise Aster

Blaise

Dinig na dinig ko ang naging pag-uusap nina Lisle at Trevor kanina. I couldn't help but to feel guilty about everything that I said to Exia. I know that it's no one's fault but still, I accused her without having a second thought.

I jumped from the tree where I am standing. I paused and stared at the moon above, still reflecting on what just happened before walking towards the HQ.

Segrei was right.

I didn't do anything.

I didn't do anything for Merill and I couldn't forgive myself for that.

I couldn't even treat her as a sister just like what Exia did. I was too focused of annihilating demons and forget about the people around me.

My driving hunger for vengeance lead me to this.

About 9 years ago

"Lynn!" Hinihingal na tawag ko sa nakababata kong kapatid.

"Lynn! Where are you?!" Pagod na pagod na ako sa katatakbo kakahanap sa kaniya. We have to leave this house! This place is not safe for the both of us.

They're monsters! All of them!

Tuloy lang ang pagtahak ko sa daang hindi ko alam. This house, this family, everything is evil! I can't believe that I have to be born in this clan!

"Where are you going Blaise? We need your body for the ritual!" Nanginig ang buong kalamnan ko nang may magsalita sa likuran ko.

The wicked looks in their eyes sent shivers down my spine as they surrounded me. The look on their faces indicates nothing but pure wickedness!

"W-where's Lynn!? Where's my sister, you scumbags!?" I don't care if they're family or not! The fact that these people worships a demon is more than enough to despise them! They're a disgrace to human race!

"She's not good at hiding. Siya ngayon ang sumasalo sa galit ng diyos! It was your fault! You delayed the ritual that's why you'll never gonna see her again!" Nawalan ako ng lakas dahil sa sinabi ng sarili kong ama.

How can he do this? How can all of them do this?! Paano niya naaatim na ialay ang sarili niyang anak sa isang demonyo? He's even worse than any of those damn creatures!

Anger.

This anger keeps growing in me. I am losing all of my self-control. For the first time, I feel the power overflowing within me. A magic that is even greater than what I already possess.

It seems like I've been sent to a different world all alone. No one's here except me. Nag-aapoy ang buong paligid ngunit balewala ito sa akin for I am resistant to fire and everything that produces heat.

Magic is everywhere in this world and everyone can learn it. But not everyone can possess a magical sword who can be called as blazers.

Blazers are swordsmen who were chosen by magical swords to be their owners. Once the owner of that sword dies, the sword will vanish and will look for another owners again. But once the sword is broken, according to the books, there will be another sword that will appear somewhere waiting for their owner.

The Aster clan uses the element of fire but only the chosen ones are capable of being a blazer. The magic is passed down from generation to generation but it was almost 300 years ago since the clan was able to produce a blazer. None of the generations after that was able to produce another one.

I was astonished by the flames I'm seeing right now when a blazing sword appeared right in front of me. It seems like it was talking to me and asks me to come closer. There's a voice whispering on me.
