Chapter 69: Ezra

Ezra POV

"Very good. You passed the test. But still not enough, malambot ka pa din and enemies might use it against you. Ezra, you need courage and cold heart. Sa darating na digmaan, hindi maari ang malambot na puso!" Napayuko ako sa sinabi ni Goddess Merliyah.

Unti-unting dumilim ang paningin ko at nahihilo ako.

Nakakadinig ako ng mga hindi kaaya-ayang salita. Tinakpan ko ang tainga ko.

"ARRRGHHHHHHH! STOOP!" Sigaw ko. Hindi ko na makita si Goddess Merliyah.

Nakita ko ang sarili kong sinasaktan. I saw myself and now... I pity myself.

A tear fell dow from my eyes. I saw different people that were conquered by Darkaniax. Families who lost their family members.

Myself... The little version of myself, who were crying... asking for help. Wishing that Nanay Freya and Tatay Bernardo could survive from the terror hand of my Auntie Venice.

I'm angry and I'm hurt.

"Zenthalia... Help me my princess... Help me." Said by my real Mother whose holding a shurikens.

"Y-yes Mommy, I will h-help y—"

"No! Don't help her!"

"But she's my Mother!"

"She's not!"

"Ezra... Come here..." Another image came out, it was Auntie Venice. She's holding a samurai.

"A-auntie?"

"Yes Ezra... I'm your Auntie Venice. You stayed in my side for almost sixteen years. Come here little pretty Ezra... Hahahaha!"

"B-but you killed my Nanay and Tatay Bernardo!"

"Ate... Help me ate Ezrwa..." It's Lija! But she's holding a swiss knife.

"L-lija? What a-are you doing here?"

"Ate help me..."

Y-yes... I will help them all!

"Helping them even they can hurt you?" Someone spoke.

"Just help me! I'm your mother!"

"No! Don't help her! Help me! I sustained your sixteen years life!

"Ate Ezrwa... You won't help me... You won't? I'm scared ate..."

Aaarrghhhh! Stop!

"Think well, Ezra Areyih Valencia."

"You should pass this time. You should not be weak! Don't let them use your kindness to destroy you!"

"Noooooo! Stoop this nowwww!" Sigaw ko pa.

Sumakit pa ang ulo ko at mapapikit, pagmulat ko ay nakita ko si Goddess Merliyah.

"Hindi solusyon ang pagiging pusong bato ko sa digmaan. Ang kailangan ko'y kontrolin ang kabaitan ko at hindi tanggalin sa buong sistema ko." Saad ko agad.

Napangiti si Goddess Merliyah, "Tama nga ang napiling magliligtas. You passed it."

—

Maraming araw pa kaming nag-ensayo at ako'y natuto na. I passed a lot of screenings and trainings from other Gods and Goddesses. They put me in illusions, disaster, and calamities. They even tested my trust issues, kindness, confidence, love and many more and they upgraded the version of myself.

I mastered how to use and control my power and ability.

Goddess Merliyah chanted a spell and I felt something that completes me.

"You're now ready to face them. Not as Ezra Areyih Valencia, but the real long lost Princess Zenthalia Lizandra. Welcome back."

I smirked.

Finally...

I'm back.
