Chapter Seventy-Five: A Pair of Outcasts

Tumaas ang kilay niya sa komento ko. "Dahil nakaabot ako sa city na 'to?"

Tumango ako. He was able to do that without any help and while being disliked by others. That takes a lot of courage.

With my eyes still fixed on his, I gave Maki a smile. "Admire you."

He blanked out for a few seconds before blinking and looking away, a slight flush evident on his cheeks. "Ano ba, wala lang 'yon. Small things. Huwag mo 'kong gawing straight."

Nang makalabas kaming dalawa ay doon ko nakonpirma ang sinabi ni Maki kanina. The amount of glares that I received heightened. Their judging stares had a mix of disgust when it fell on Maki, and I could see how they tried to distance themselves.

I pursed my lips as I quietly observed the players around us. Maki continued on chatting about his most frightening moment in the game - which was when he was magic training and he almost kissed a frog. Hanggang ngayon ay mas reklamo kaysa kuwento ang storytelling niya.

Those who did not go solo has already finished their zodiac realm, the gate of Libra stood open behind them. May ibang nagsolo na natapos na rin, such as Marcella and Kairo, but the others were still fighting fiercely. Dahil sa tapos na ang misyon, mukhang walang ibang magawa ang iba at nakikigulo naman.

Namely, Amnesia.

"Tingnan mo nga naman!" he exclaimed, walking closer to us. Maki visibly stiffened beside me. "Nagsama ang dalawang demonyo! A murderer and a faggot! Sadyang wala ka na ba talagang makasama, sparrow, at dito ka na sa bakla?"

I narrowed my eyes at him. If I was really capable of murder, this man would be at the top of my list. His frequent attacks were only for his arrogance and pride. Mabuti sana kung singlakas ng skills niya ang sariling bunganga.

"Ikaw, Makla, ba't ka sumasama kay Sparrow? Nako, takot ka na siguro sa mga katropa ko ano? Bakit, hindi na ba safe ang pagtulog mo sa gabi? Gano'n din ang nararamdaman namin nang malamang may bakla dito, tangina! Nakakabastos!" Amnesia's account received a couple of chuckles from the audience. "You're sticking to sparrow like a glue kasi kaya ka niyang protektahan, ha? Hintayin mo lang na saktan siya ng reyna ko at wala din 'yan. O baka naman si Sparrow na ang byahe mo sa pagpapaka-straight-"

"Say whatever you want to me, Amnesia, but don't bring Finn into this." galit na pagputol ni Maki sa kaniya.

Amnesia was taken aback and a couple of 'ooohs' resonated from the audience. Dahil mukhang napahiya ay namuo ang muhi at galit sa mga mata niya. He quickly pulled out his knife, brows furrowed and face ruined in anger.

I watched as his shoulders trembled in rage. When he took a step forward, hands tightly gripping the hilt of his knife, I also pulled out my kunai.

It wasn't long before he attacked, foul words already spilling out his mouth.

"Aba't gago kang bakla ka- AH!"

Then, my blade met his tongue.

Nanlaki ang mata ni Amnesia ar napasinghap ang nanonood na manlalaro. I was holding his tongue out with my blade just below it. It wasn't touching but it was damn threatening.

When he looked down, our eyes met, and a shiver ran through his body. Mas lumaki ang takot na naroroon sa mga mata niya at parang nanginginig na siya. Well, having your tongue pulled out with the threat of cutting it sure is terrifying.

"Finn." I heard Wes' call, but I ignored him.

"You like talking so much." I said, voice low and pissed. "I'm tired of hearing it. I wonder what would happen if I cut this out?"
