Chapter 26: Illusionist Tribe

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I told you, Margaux that it's not good to come and visit here at this time when the weather is this bad!" Says a girl that's included with the newly arrived uninvited guests. I know this isn't the right time to flex these eyes we, the crimsons possessed but I have to thank my genetics to be able to hear and see what's going on above us.

The lady who I think is Margaux only 'tsked' as a reply to her comrade. Patuloy na lumalabas ang mga hindi matukoy na nilalang mula sa butas na nababalot ng kadiliman. They don't have wings, but they can walk in the air. Isang bagay na hindi normal kung ako ang tatanungin para sa mga nilalang na naninirahan sa mundong ito.

The uninvited guests wore the same outfit whether they're males or females. Isang itim na itim na cloak ang bumabalot sa kanilang katawan kung saan maski mukha ay natatakpan. There are three persons in front of prince Ul.

Two girls and one boy. Ang unang babae ay iyong bumasag sa katahimak kanina na kasalukuyang nagrereklamo pa rin hangang ngayon. Along the way, I happened to hear her name from their only guy. She's Trixia. Maliit na babae at mukhang mas bata pa sa akin.

Margaux on the other hand is a tall woman but the other guy is surely taller for he is a man. Ang boses nito'y malamig at nakakapangilabot. Maliban sa tatlo, may mga kasamahan pa sila na patuloy na lumalabas sa isang butas na gawa nila na satingin ko'y isang spacial magic. Only that the hole is not circle. Like it was made by a slash of sword.

I can't go on like this. I must do something!

I frustratedly combed my hair using my fingers. Halos sabunutan ko ang sarili. What to do? I don't know! Natauhan lang ako ng may isang mapusyaw na kulay ng asul ang mabilis na bumalot sa tuktok ng Mt. Alilah. It was a barrier.

I was slightly relieved when I noticed that it came from our side. One of the faculty teachers casted it, not for us but for the safety of the creatures outside the mountain.

"We Crimsons always stays on the safe side. But when the situation calls for it, we have no choice but to resort into fighting."

"Heck, our only resort is to fight!"

"Crimsons! Never let your guard down!"

Hindi ko alam kung sino ang nagpasimula ngunit lahat ng naririto sa taas ay naghanda sa paglipad. Kahit nalilito ay sumabay na rin ako. This time no one stop me. Lalo na at may permiso na galing sa kung sinong mga miembro ng faculty.

I immediately went to prince Ul's direction hoping to join him. Nagkahiwa-hiwalay na kami nina Ayen at ang iba pa. Nang matauhan ang aming lahi mula sa pagkasorpresa ay sumugod na rin ang mga nakaitim na nilalang. They have no weapons so what creature are they?

'Illusionist' says a thought in my mind.

Kumunot ang noo ko at nakaramdam ng galit. How dare them waltz in our territory! What are they thinking? Is this some sort of a dry run? A warning? Perhaps to seek information?

Must be all of the above...

Nagkagulo na ang lahat. In just a snap, the top of Mt. Alilah where the Emperor Palace lies became a battlefield. Most of the students evacuated. Hindi na rin nakialam ang iba pang mga estudyante na nag-aaral sa Averian Univerity maliban sa Crimsons since it was a hidden school in the first place.

I even encountered some of the enemy and immediately tied them using my strings. I used my gravity magic to put them on the ground but then, they suddenly disappeared, leaving black smoke in the thin air.

Doon ko napagtanto na hindi gaanong malakas ang mga nakaitim na nilalang. It was just a bit hard to fight when you avoid your allies that's scattered around the area plus the ranging storm that I think, I created.
