Heleina Cross Academy of Magic Part III: Alta Guild

Chapter Seventy Two: Friends and Foe

Third Person Point of View

"Where are they?" Mula sa mga sandata ay inangat ni Helios ang kanyang paningin sa kanang kamay na si Luques Ferior na nakatayo hindi kalayuan sakanya.

"Training. I can't believe that Nia's training again because of a new power."

"Well she needs to, or else we will lose ours." Helios answered bago nito kinuha mula sa ibabaw ng lamesa ang isang dagger. He eyed  the weapon closely as if trying to memorize every single detail engraved on its handle bago palihim na sinulyapan si Luques na abala sa pagtingin naman sa mga espada.

Helios smirked before swiftly throwing the dagger towards the preoccupied Luques. The latter, on the other hand was fast to feel the attack coming kaya mabilis din nitong naiwasan ang dagger na hinagis ni Helios by bending his torso backwards.

Luques felt another attack coming from Helios again kaya mabilis nitong dinampot ang isang espada bago isinangga iyon sa swiss knife na muling ihinagis sakanya ni Helios.

"What the hell man!" Gulat na reklamo nito but Helios just ignored him as he make his own weapon using his lightning and dark ability. Mula sa kamay nito ay nabuo ang isang espada na kasing laki ng hawak na espada ni Luques.

"You can just say it kung gusto mo mag sparring hindi yung hahagisan mo ako ng kung ano-ano! Paano kung natamaan ako?"

"I know you can dodge it moron."

"Oh well, I guess you really knew me well." Nakangising saad ni Luques bago ito sumugod kay Helios na agad namang sinalubong ang atake ng kaibigan. Their swords collided and every time it happens an invisible wave of energy can be felt around them.

Sa kabilang bahagi naman ng silid ay naiiling na nanunuod na lang sina Kairo at Lukas.

"Shit. Kailangan ko pa namang papirmahan ang ilang papeles na toh kay Commander. Why do they have to train now?" Namomroblemang saad ni Kairo bago napakamot sa noo nito. Lukas on the other hand remained silent before turning his back towards the door to leave dahil alam nyang wala silang pag-asang maistorbo sina Helios at Luques sa gitna ng training ng mga ito.

Or it's maybe because Kairo and Lukas both knew that it won't end well for the both of them kapag inistorbo nila ang dalawa. Those monsters might think that Kairo and Lukas wants to join them and team up against the poor gentlemen instead.

Kagaya ni Lukas ay pinili na lang din ni Kairo na umalis para iwan ang dalawang halimaw na kung hindi lang niya alam na magkaibigan ay aakalain nyang magkaaway dahil mukhang nagpapatayan na ang mga ito.

"Oh! May the gods bless that training room." Bulong pa nito bago tuluyang nakalayo sa kaawa-awang training room.

"I need you to move farther away from me Cashiella."

"Are we finally testing the proximity of your ability, Nia?" Excited na tanong pabalik ni Cashiella dahil sa inutos sakanya ni Ireneia. It's been 2 hourse since Cashiella replaced Lynia as Nia's training partner pero mukhang wala man lang nawawalang enerhiya sa dalawang dalaga.

Sa loob ng halos limang oras ay walang ginawa si Ireneia kundi ang mag training to have control over her power and at the same time know kung hanggang saan at kung ano ba talaga ang kayang gawin nya bilang Heist holder.
