Chapter 25: Harmful Power

Lucky's POV

Laking gulat ko habang pinagmamasdan ang pagtalsik ng mga sentinel, ang iba ay nahimatay habang ang iba ay mga sugat.

I dashed over to where the Dragon was and saw that she was covered in blood, while the baby dragon was shielded by her body so the arrow didn't hit him.

“Lucky!” I looked at the source of the voice and saw Zaphael running towards the sentinels, accompanied by Jorvina and Linglie. When Zaphael and I looked at each other, his face was shocked.

“Lucky! Stay away from that Dragon!” Jorvina shouted, I shook my head.

“No! She's not as bad as you think she is.” Jorvina and Zaphael were frowning as I yelled back at them.

“If that's the case, why did she take you?” I sighed.

“Her son was injured and she needed help, she was able to do so because she wasn't in the right frame of mind earlier.” Zaphael and Jorvina exchanged glances, while Linglie didn't notice she was by my side, caressing the Dragon.

“Don't worry, gagamutin siya ng mga nag-aalaga ng Dragon.” I smiled and nodded in response to what Linglie said.

It's good that way because I can't afford to lose her, and even though I've only know her for a short time, I've grown close to the dragon, to the two of them.

“Lucky! Palagi ka na lang talagang napapahamak!” I surprised when Zaphael ran up to me and hugged me tightly. I patted his back and smiled and when I looked at Jorvina, she smiled back.

“We were worried about you because we thought something bad had happened to you.” I let go of Zaphael's hug and look at him while Jorvina explained.

“Sorry, I just wanted to help the boy, at nagpapasalamat ako na kinuha ako ng dragon.” Zaphael frowned at what I said, while Jorvina and Linglie both laughed.

“What? Nakuha mo pang magpasalamat, you almost die, Lucky!” Umiling ako at saka tumingin sa Dragon na nakatingin din sa akin, hinawakan ko ang balat nito kahit magaspang.

“Yes, I was scared at first, but when I realized she wasn't bad and she only did it to save her son, I was relieved because she would do anything for her child.” My tears flowed as I remember that my mother was also here.
“Would my mother be able to do what this Dragon did if I was with her?” I grinned bitterly as I looked up at the sky.

“Lucky...”

“Zaphael, alam mo bang nadiskubre kong nandito ang ina ko sa mundong ito at baka nandito rin ang ama ko.” He widened his eyes as he stared at me.

“Are you serious?”

I nodded and returned my gaze to the Dragon.

“Yes, I was talking to the tree earlier while taking the tree leaf that has the ability to heal wounds, and he said that he remember me with someone, and I asked him who, and he said that was my mother.” After saying that, I sighed.

“How do you know he's telling the truth?” When he asked that, I looked at him, thought for a moment, then smiled broadly at him.

“I trust my instincts.” He also nodded and smiled at me.

“I'm happy for you, Lucky.” Natigilan naman ako nang maalala ang mga kakaibang nangyari sa akin kanina.

“The baby dragon, he died earlier,” Agad na napatingin sa akin ai Jorvina at Linglie. “Pero nabuhay siya nang pumatak ang luha ko sa katawan niya.” Jorvina's reaction surprised me, she was taken aback by what I said.

“What exactly do you mean?” I gave Linglie a serious look.

“It simply means that I have power. What kind of power is that? I resurrected the baby dragon and the one you saw earlier when I shouted, the sentinels splash out. So now tell me what kind of power I have?” Jorvina and Linglie exchanged glances, while Zaphael frowned.

“If this is the case, you are a Celestial user.” When Jorvina said that, I closed my eyes and smiled.

“But...” Agad kong minulat ang mga mata ko sa sunod na sinabi ni Linglie.

“But?” She gave me a serious look.

“Ngunit hindi kami sigurado sa kabuuan ng iyong kapangyarihan because a celestial user doesn't have the ability to resurrect, only summon.” Napaisip naman ako sa sinabi niya.

I would have been happy because I finally knew I had power, but my joy was dampened by what they said, so I bowed and sighed.

Why is that? What kind of power do I truly possess? Why do I have to feel this way before I find out the truth?

“Lucky,” I looked up at Zaphael as he weakly patted my back, and I noticed Jorvina and Linglie walking away habang ang dragon ay tinulungang alalayan ng mga sentinels dahil hindi na ito makakalipad, ang mga walang malay na sentinel ay dinala ng ibang mga sentinel at ang mga sugatan ay inalalayan din.

“Let's go,” I told Zaphael, then took his hand in mine and followed them.

Hanggang sa makabalik na kami sa Hall at nakarating sa kwarto na aming matutulogan, I was still not in the mood, Zaphael and I will sleep in the other hall, while Jorvina and Linglie will sleep in the tent to help guard the place. There are two halls here in Dragon Village.

We've arrived in our rooms, I sighed and walked to the bed, where I lay down and realized I was tired.

Masyadong maraming nangyari ngayon, kaya madali akong nakatulog.

The next morning, I awoke to a loud knock on the door of the room where I was, and my face was filled with annoyance.

When I opened the door, I saw the novice girl who is one of the participants in the war, and she was also the girl I saw being kicked by a sentinel.

It was probably only fourteen years old.
“I apologize for disturbing your sleep, Lady, but Lady Jorvina is calling you.” She smiled shyly at me, natawa naman ako bigla, kaya napatingin siya sa ’kin dahil nakayuko siya at napansin kong hindi niya sinasalubong ang tingin ko.

“Susunod ako, maari ka nang mauna.” She nodded and was about to walk away in front of me when I grabbed her by the shoulder to ask about what I saw yesterday, but I was surprised when she cried out loudly as if she's in pain.

“What is happening to you?”

She shook her head and was about to leave when I grabbed her hand and lifted the long sleeve she was wearing, my eyes widening because she had a lot bruises on her arm.

“Aalis na ako.” She took her arm away from me, but I didn't let go, and I looked at her emotionlessly, so she avoided looking at me.

“Who did that to you?” She shook her head once more and moved away from me.

“No, it was just an accident.” Magtatanong pa sana ako kaso mabilis siyang nawala sa harapan ko, so I sighed and entered the room to tidy up because our training was about to begin.

Shortly after I was able to prepare myself, I found myself here at the back of the Hall where the training will be held, wide and overgrown.

“Why are you late?”

Iyon ang bungad sa akin ni Zaphael nang makita ko siya, magsasalita na sana ako pero biglang nagsalita si Jorvina.

“We'll divide you into two groups, so those in my group's hands are up!” Napangiwi ako sa sinabi niya and I decided this time kay Linglie na muna ako pero nanlaki ang mata ko nang biglang itinaas ni Zaphael ang kamay ko kaya napabilang ako sa group ni Jorvina.

No way!

I cast a sour look at Zaphael, who was now laughing at my outburst.

“You're a jerk! You will pay for this later, Zaphael.” I said weakly as I walked towards Jorvina's groups.

“Oh? What's with that face?” She raised an eyebrow, I rolled my eyes at her, causing her to frowned.

“Nothing.” Tipid kong tugon dahil naiinis ako kay Zaphael.

The training hd already begun, the beginners closed their eyes and held out their palms, and soon after, a power suddenly appeared while I was just looking at them, I turned around and concentrated, and like them, I presented my palm, but after nearly half an hour, nothing happened.

When I opened my eyes, I was disgusted to see that everyone was staring at me.

“Lucky,” I sighed as I looked at Jorvina.

“Aalis na lang muna ako.” Wika ko tapos dahan-dahan siyang tumango.

Umalis ako ng may malungkot na pakiramdam. Bakit hanggang ngayon wala pa rin? Akala ko ba may kapangyarihan na ako? Why did that happen?

I decided to go to Dragon's place first, nang makarating ako sa kinaroroonan ng dragon, masaya akong makitang nahilom na nila ang mga sugat na natamo niya kahapon, lalo akong natuwa nang makita ko ang batang dragon sa tabi nito.

“Hi, I hope you are fine.” I caressed her skin, even though I knew it wouldn't speak, and I was startled by the sudden darkness and the place seemed different.

“Lucky...” I tracked down the source of the voice and discovered it was the dragon.

What? Is she speaking?

“You're speaking?” Tanong ko at pumikit ako dahil baka nakatulog ako at baka panaginip lang ang nangyayari ngayon pero hindi na lang ako nananaginip.

“Yes, I can speak, all creatures can speak, however, not everyone understands creatures like us, I'm glad you do.” She explained.

“I'm glad to talk to you as well.” I smiled then looked around, but I couldn't see anything because of the darkness.

“Thank you so much for saving my son, I am truly grateful to you, and if you ever need help, I will gladly help you.” I nodded as I smiled at what she said.

“What's your name?” I asked her, matagal bago nya sinagot ang tanong ko kaya nagulat ako.

“My name is Calora,” She answered. “I know you have a problem about your power.”

“Yeah, until now, my power is still not coming out pero no’ng magawa kong buhayin ang anak mo ay akala ko may kapangyarihan na ’ko pero wala pala.” I looked at her as she emitted some sort of energy that I don't know, it was just a star-shaped.

“You have power, you just don’t know how to use it, and it hasn’t fully manifested yet, but by the time it does, I'm sure chaotic will have occurred.” I frowned too much because of the last thing she said.

“What do you mean, Calora?” I looked at what she blew because it was just floating in the air, and it shone brightly. I was surprised when it suddenly entered inside me.

“You'll need it so that if your power goes out completely, you won't be able to do any harm.” I couldn't understand a word she was saying.

“What do you mean?”
Bakit maghahatid ng kaguluhan ang aking kapangyarihan? Bigla akong kinabahan sa kapangyarihang taglay ko.

Is it dangerous?
