The Cursed Guardian

Chapter 24

~ Veenece ~

We run out of the library when we heard a bombing scream on the air. It was Auryn with her Spirit Guardian.

Phearo.

There is something in his name. I want to know what it is but finding the Gryphon Warrior is more important right now.

As they fly around, I look down from the balcony. Raeco had returned! It is a peculiar thing that Lucas is helping them.

I know he is hiding something. I just don't know what it is. Then it hit me. It is not common that two same Spirit Guardian have their appearance. Maybe one of them is pretending.

I hunt in my brain the qualities of a Gryphon Warrior. He is strong in all aspect. He is a best fighter. He overcomes his fear. That is why he is brave. He also have the wisdom. The reason why he is a strategic Warrior.

He has so much confidence because he believes in  his self. He holds power and wisdom in his aura.

All description matches to Lucas.
He is the best Warrior even when we are still in training. If he did not succumb to his hatred to the Academy, he can be the best. Surfacing Raeco. And he knows it. That he is strong.

Can it be?

All Gryphon Warrior are male.

He is.

~ Auryn ~

I glance up the ceiling while I take my sit. It's been my mannerism whenever I enter his office. My grandmother holding the Gryphon's sword in her Lion armor. She looks great.

No.

She is great.

"Eyes down here, Auryn."

I held my head down when I heard the Chancellor's voice. He grins at me when I turned to him.

"Sorry. I just can't help but to admire her."

"How can you be the descendant of a Great Warrior?"

I turned to Lucas. He is back to his usual poker face and taunting aura. Gone the Lucas I saw a minutes ago.

The Chancellor cleared his throat breaking the awkward atmosphere in the air. Everyone looks down on me!

"I was thinking, Auryn," Chancellor Barnabee started. He called us to his office to say something regarding me, "now that your Spirit Guardian has accepted you. You can join Raeco and everyone, now in finding the sword. You can be a help to them."

My eyes widen in excitement. I thought I will still stay here making myself a warrior while everyone is out in their own mission. I can prove my self now!

"Really? You're not kidding me?"

"You can sense the sword."

I turned to Raeco, not looking in his eyes. I know better not to look on his eyes. They remind me of the feelings I am forgetting to save my self.

"Veenece told me that, too."

Birds with feather, flocks together. Is that why they are on each other? Because they are the same.

"Because you are an Eagle Warrior. The sword will not respond to you but you can feel it."

They say the sword will only respond to its owner. If they need my help, then they still not find it.

"We have a hard time finding it because it was hidden in death."

I don't know what they found out that is why, what Toki said had my brain in curiosity.
