''Not in the mood, Luthor?'' Adonis grinned wider when he noticed how Will Luthor's fist clenched as he looked away. He turned his wheel and faced the wall instead. Mas gugustuhin niya pang kausapin ang pader kaysa magsayang ng laway kay Adonis.

''What a weird-looking item, right?'' Tristan breathed in as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. Puno na rin ng dumi't nagmarka na rin ang mga ginawa niyang panggatong sa kaniyang gloves. Tristan is just lucky that Top was able to afford gloves for him.

''Yeah,'' Top answered back. ''I heard Adonis shot Zander five times.''

''Five times?'' Tila may bumara sa lalamunan ni Tristan dahil sa narinig. He stared at Top because he was trying to assess his reaction but it looked like his tone was nonchalant.

Tristan can't help but gulp. He expected to hear opinions from Top because he knew he wouldn't slide. Ito ang unang beses niyang makatagpo ng taong nakapatay ng kapwa niya tao.

As a result, he ended up staring at Top. Nais niya sana marinig ang opinyon nito. Ngunit abala itong mag-ihaw ng karne sa gilid niya.

Mula sa gilid ay isang lalaki ang abalang magbuhat ng mga kakanin. This is a forest in the middle of Shakrila and Kazva, a hide-out where Will Luthor's companion decided to go for the meantime.

They wondered why the woman always walked in the forest. Lingid sa kaalaman ng babae ay ang gubat na kung saan niya nakahiligan maglakad ay ang pinto sa kinaroroonan.

But now the woman would never step foot in this forest because Zander is no longer here to walk with her.

''We will talk later, Atlas.'' Top narrowed his eyes the moment he saw Atlas carrying new loads of wood.

Isang nagtatakang tingin ang pinukol nito sa kaniya bilang tugon. Napahinto naman si Tristan sa kaniyang ginagawa nang marinig ang sinabi ni Top kay Atlas.

''Should I call Sanzo?'' Atlas answered. Top nodded his head.

''Aren't Sanzo making magic items for Tristan?'' Top glances at Atlas. As far as they can recall, Adonis instructed Sanzo to make magic items that they can use. Tanging si Tristan lang kasi ang maasahan nila pagdating sa ganito.

''Me?'' Tristan can't help to point himself. Napaawang din ang mga labi niya. Nakipagtitigan siya kay Atlas para humingi ng sagot ngunit nagkibit balikat lamang ito sa kaniya.

However, Tristan's gut is telling him that it has something to do with his silver rings. Alam ni Adonis na halos nagamit na ni Tristan ang mga sising nito.

Tristan used it as an explosion to abduct the woman. The first one happened in Damian's carriage and they failed. The second one is when Tristan uses it to lure the woman into this cabin for Will Luthor's plan.

''Yo!'' Sanzo waved at them. His eyes widened when he saw Will Luthor from the corner.

''Sanzo.'' Top greeted him. ''How was it?''

''Bakit malungkot 'yong isa?'' Ngumuso si Sanzo sa direksyon ni Will Luthor.

Nagkatinginan na lang sila Top at Tristan dahil hindi alam ang sasabihin. Compared to them, Sanzo is a full-time scholar who studies downstream. Huli nila itong makita noong kaarawan ni Will Luthor.

''You made the right magic item for Tristan? Did you get the right size of his fingers?'' Top added, ignoring Sanzo's question.

''Hindi ako sigurado. Silver from downstream is expensive. Inuna ko na ang pangkain ko.''

Napakamot na lamang sa batok si Sanzo dahil kulang man ito sa tulog ay ginawa niya kung ano ang pinapagawa sa kaniya ni Adonis. He said he trusted Sanzo's skills in crafting magic items and potions.
