Chapter 22: Jewel Tattoo

Lucky's POV

"You seem to be thinking so deeply." I looked at Zaphael when he said that, we are now here in the Garden of the palace because after conversation earlier the King, Queen has left together with the Prince, ni hindi pa nagalaw ang mga pagkaing nakahain sa kanilang harapan habang sina Jorvina at Linglie ay tinapos ang kanilang kinakain ngunit pagkatapos noon, hindi ko na alam kung saan sila pumunta.

"I was just wondering if I am a Celestial User." I told him as I watched the beautiful butterflies flying over the beautiful flowers, the brightness of their colors.

"You will also know that, let time answer it." I smiled then look at him, I noticed his forehead furrowed as he looked at me.

"What?" He raised his hand and placed it around my neck, I was about to move away but he held me. "What the hell?!" I yelled at him.

"Nagpa-tattoo ka ba?" My forehead was wrinkled too much because of his question.

"No. I'm not," I removed his hand from my neck but his gaze was not removed from my neck.

"Something strange, Lucky. You have a tattoo on your neck." My eyes widened when he said that, as far as I know I don't have tattoo.

"I don't have a tattoo. Pinagloloko mo ba 'ko?" I asked him angrily but instead of answering he got something from his pocket then he gave it to me and I found out that it was a small mirror.

Why does he have a mirror in his pocket?

"Impossible..." I was shocked when I saw a jewel tattoo, it was red as if it was alive and growing on my neck.
"I'll swear Zaphael, I never got a tattoo, I don't know why I have it." His forehead furrowed even more at what I said, I was confused by the sudden appearance of a tattoo on my neck.

We were in that scene when Jorvina and Linglie suddenly arrived.

"What's the matter?" Linglie asked, noticing the reaction on our faces.

"May problema ba?" Jorvina asked too.

"A tattoo suddenly appeared on Lucky's neck." Jorvina and Linglie looked when Zaphael said that, Jorvina approached me and looked at my neck but I was surprised by what she said.

"I don't see any tattoos here." I looked at my neck again in the mirror and was surprised to see that it was gone, as if no tattoo had appeared on my neck earlier because it is clean now.

"Pero meron kanina, Zaphael and I saw it clearly." Zaphael and I looked at each other and we were both confused by the expression on our faces.

"Maybe you two were just tired." Linglie walked over to where we were.

"Forget about that, we have to leave and go to the people who will join the coming war here in the Flare Kingdom." Even though I still had a lot to ask about the tattoo, I just nodded to her and told her that Zaphael and I would go for a walk first but just a few steps away I turned to them and saw their confused expressions on their faces as well as fear. Fear that I did not know why and for what.

Hanggang ngayon, na nandito kami sa karwahe, puno pa rin ng isip ko ang eksena ng biglang pagsulpot ng tattoo at pati na rin ang pagkawala nito.

"You can sleep first because we still have a long way to go." Linglie said while driving the carriage, and to somehow get out of my mind about the phenomenon that had just happened I had better allow it first.

But I just closed my eyes and I was surprised that I was here in another place again.

"Erra!" I immediately looked behind me when I heard that name, I saw a man with a mask calling Erra, Erra is the beautiful woman I saw in the river as well as in the hut.
"It's nice to see you again." Panting the man said to Erra, Erra frowned as he looked at the man.

"Who are you?" The man suddenly laughed and then slowly removed the cover from his face, I suddenly fell down in shock when I saw his face.

"Zaphael..." Why is Zaphael here? Zaphael looks like the man who called Erra but his body is just strangely built, he is a little taller than Zaphael and his hair is brown while Zaphael is black.

"Noah! Oh, it's just you, akala ko kung sino." Erra seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Do you think I'm one of those people who are obsessed with you?" Erra's eyes narrowed as the man look alike Zaphael asked.

If so, this man is Noah. There is no doubt that he is a descendant of Zaphael because they really look alike. I immediately got up from my fall.

"Erra! I need your help!" Suddenly, a woman came, a trace of anxiety on her face.

"Why? What happened?" Erra approached the woman and supported her because it looked like she was about to break down.

"There's a trouble in the forest, Erra. Please, help my parents, the demons have attacked them." After Erra heard that she was surprised.

"Noah, take care of Nadia first." After she said that, Erra suddenly ran somewhere and so did I, I don't know why but she seems to be dragging me wherever she goes without her knowledge.

When we got to the forest she ran faster, she even managed to jump on the branches of the trees.

Moments later she suddenly stopped jumping on the branches, I don't know how I kept up with her speed.

"What do you need from us? We're just ordinary element users." A man with a wound on the abdomen asked while the woman next to him hugged him. Sa hitsura nila, ang ibig lang sabihin ay may laban na naganap sa pagitan nila at ng mga lalaking may itim na mata.

"I know you that know why we are here." Suddenly, a man with long hair up to his waist appeared in front of them.

"We don't know what you're talking about!" The woman shouted, so the man with long hair looked at her.

"That's what people always say, so if you want to avoid dying, tell me where the sacred jewel is!" It released black power and was about to hit the two of them when the direction of the attack suddenly changed at the same time as Erra suddenly appeared in front of two people.

"I don't think the two are fair against all of you." She grinned, so the man was surprised.

"Don't you ever interfere with this, Erra!" Erra raised an eyebrow and later on, her gaze deepened on the man.

"And why not? It is my duty to protect the oppressed and keep the whole Legendarria World in order." The man laughed, so Erra was annoyed.

Even me, felt annoyed because of his laughed because at first, there was nothing funny.

"That's enough!" When Erra shouted, she released a massive light.

"Zach, we have nothing against her, you know she's a-" A demon couldn't continue what he was going to say when Zach suddenly spoke.

"I don't care!" He looked different, there was a root all over its face that was so horrible, but even so, I wondered what kind of creature Erra was. Why I see fear in some demons?
