Ending War: Finding Archangels 2 (COMPLETED)

Chapter 43: Wrath of the Spiritualist

Author's Note:

In Chapter 39, I mentioned that from the chapter onwards up to this part will be in 3rd Person. Nagkamali ako. Mas maganda kung mabasa ninyo ang part na ito in the Gab's perspective.

Enjoy.

Chapter 43: The Wrath of the Spiritualist

Gabriel John

My mind went blank when Arch confessed what he did.

Akala ko ay nagdurusa siya dahil sinubukan niyang tawirin ang dalawang magkaibang kapangyarihan para iligtas ang aking ama.

Nagkamali pala ako.

Ang pagkawala ng ala-ala ng aking ina, ang walang hanggang kalungkutan ng aking ama, ang pagpapalayas sa akin sa mansyon at ang pagkasira ng aking akalang perpektong pamilya ay kasalanan ni Arch.

Arch manipulated our grandfather's memory to dispatch me from the house. He's the one who broke the car.

Karapat-dapat ba siyang iligtas?

I think he should rotten here.

Inilabas ko ang aking water sword at iwinasiwas ko ito sa gawi ni Arch.

Narinig ko pa ang pagpigil ni David na atakehin ko si Arch but my heart cannot controlled the rage I felt because of that revelation.

Tila hindi ko na nakikita ang mga demonyong umaatake sa akin.

Why should I bother about them when the real enemy was not them but rather the man in front of me pretending to be my companion?

I think I should deal with him first.

Tinuloy ko ang pag-atake ko kay Arch gamit ang aking espada but he kept on dodging it.

"You are evil, Arch. You got my sympathy when I found out that you just broke the rule to save my father. It was your guilt after all that made you decide that way." ani ko at nagpakawala pa ng water ball sa malaya kong kamay dahil hindi kaya ng aking espada ang kanyang atake.

Ngunit hindi rin tumatama ang atakeng iyon dahil ginamit niya ang hangin bilang kanyang pananggalang.

Sa bawat atake ko ay sinasalag lamang ng kanyang barrier.

Hindi siya umaatake. Hindi siya lumalaban.

Napangisi ako sa set-up namin.

Isn't my advantage to be the attacker?

"Acid Rain." sambit ko at pinatama ko iyon kay Arch.

My Acid Rain was like a needles fell from above and it devours all its touches.

Mabilis ang naging response ni Arch sa Acid Rain ko dahil sa paggawa niya ng "Wind temple"  sa kanyang sarili.

Ang Wind Temple ay parang isang perfect cube na barrier na magiging pananggalang niya sa mga sandata at elementong mamumula sa ibang direksyon.

Bagama't nasa loob siya ng Wind lTemple ay hindi ko pinigilan ang pag-atake.

I know I will find a way to break that temple he built by himself.

"You are not worthy to be the successor for Archangel Michael." sabi ko pa at nagpakawala ng water waves na tuluyang sumira sa kanyang wind temple.

I saw a glimpse of surprise in his face na agad ding nawala samantalang napangisi ako dahil sa nangyari.

I will now get my revenge.

Since he was a little shock, I stepped forward to his direction and transformed my water sword to a water whip to attack Arch again.

But Arch was really good in dodging.

Muli niyang naiwasan ang aking pag-atake.

Mukhang hindi niya ibinaba ang kanyang guard kahit nagulat siya sa pagkasira ng kanyang pananggalang.

Dahil doon ay muli akong nag-summoned ng water whip sa kabila ko pang kamay at pinaghalo ito upang makabuo ng isang malaking whip na siguradong hindi maiiwasan ni Arch.

"Die, Arch. Rot here in hell." sabi ko sabay ngisi.

When I am about to hit him with my huge whip, he spoke,

"I know I am an evil person.  My envious heart made me evil. I know I am not worthy to be Archangel Michael's successor. Do you really think that it was just all me? You had a fault too. You made me like this. You got them all away from me." Arch said as he summoned his wind sword for the first time.

Sa wakas, lalabanan na niya ako.

"Hey, hindi kayo ang magkalaban." narinig kong tutol muli ni David ngunit tila nabingi mi sa kanyang apela.

Splish Splash. Splish splash.

Shing. Shing. Whoosh whoosh

Patuloy ang pag-atake namin sa isa't-isa bagama't may tutol ang aming mga kasamahan.

Ngunit ang kakayahan namin ni Arch ay halos pantay.

We were perfectly dodged each other's attacks.

Ni hindi namin madaplisan man lamang ang isa't- isa.

Ang lupang tinatayuan namin ang yumayanig dahil ito ang natatamaan ng aking water whip at ang mga atake naman niya ay tila mga sablay.

Ang wind sword kasi ni Arch ay nalalabas ng hangin sa bawat hampas.

"How because I got their attentions? Hindi ko naman hiningi iyon. Kusa nilang ibinigay. Never akong nagpapansin." ani ko at muli akong naglabas ng water wave na mabilis niya lang na inilagan.

"Yeah, I know but I was so young back then. That's why when I realized that I was wrong, I repent. I fasted. I sacrificed. Isn't enough for you to forgive me?" Arch murmured and then he unsummoned his sword.

When his sword was not already present, he created a ball of wind on his two hands and threw it away in my direction.

Sinubukan kong iwasan ang atake niyang iyon ngunit mukhang nagsayang lamang ako ng oras sapagkat kahit hindi ako umilag ay hindi ako nito matatamaan.

Namiss niya lang ba yun?

"You missed." I said with a chuckle.

"I didn't miss that was not for you." he said.

At tinuro niya ang mga demonyong nasa likod ko na naging buhangin.

So, he didn't mean to harm me ha!

"Maybe I hated you that much but I can't harm you anymore. I believe I harmed you enough. Harming you today was not part of my atonement" he said at lumayo sa gawi ko.

Nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi niya and little did I know that my knees trembled and a tear escaped from my eyes.

Yeah, he's right.

Anuman ang dahilan kung bakit niya nilabag ang batas ay nilabag pa rin niya ito.

He suffered as much as I am so who am I to judge him as evil.

As those realization hit me, a familiar comfortable feeling engulped my soul and before I closed my eyes I heard his gentle voice whispering in my ears.

"Learn to forgive and forget, Gab. Everyone deserved chances throughout his lifetime especially those people who did everything to change themselves for better." my archangel said then I lost my consciousness on his arm.
