Chapter 11

"Anyare sa inyo? May sugat ka pa!" that was Hugo's first word when he saw us entering his house.

Worry is visible on his entire face while rushing towards us, bagong ligo pa yata ang diyosa niyo.

I couldn't help but to laugh in this hilarious situation, ang lakas ng loob kong gawin iyon eh wala pa naman akong matutuluyan. But I guess, I can take care of that next day, I need a rest.

I have money now, akin naman iyon hindi kay Gulliver kaya hindi niya iyon makukuha. I still remember the part in the novel that Erin signed a contract with the Duke, nakalagay doon na mababalik lahat ng ari-arian ng Duke kapag naghiwalay ang dalawa.

After being treated, Judith was the one who explained the whole situation on Hugo since I am too lazy to say a damn thing about it.

"Gaga ka?! Saan ka naman kumuha ng kakapalan ng mukha Erin?!" and he then laugh like an asshole who's dying.

Sobrang magkaiba sila ni Judith but there's this only one thing that they share, iyon ay inisin ako into the highest level!

Napairap ako't si Judith naman ay hindi magawang pagaanin ang sariling loob, knowing that she saw what happened in my room.

"Ano? Akala ko ba mahal mo iyon? Hiniwalayan mo?" uh, that sounded gross coming out from Hugo.

Ang nang-iinis niyang mukha kanina ay napalitan ng kuryusidad.

Mukha siyang manok na nagyayabang kanina pero ngayon ay isa na siyang itlog na gustong malaman kung kailan siya mabibiyak.

I smirked at him recalling what I have read in that damn novel. "Well, maybe? But feelings don't last, they fade Hugo." I cooly said.

He clapped his hand and cover his mouth in very oa way.

At mag-uumpisa na naman po ang mag-pinsan.

Umakto itong naiiyak sa akin. "I'm so proud! I'm so proud! Hindi ka na tanga! The world is healing—" I threw the pillow beside me into his face.

Stupid.

"Biro lang!" bawi niya sa sinabi.

"But kidding aside, you can stay here while you're looking for a new home. You have the money now." he added and he's right.

But what I have now isn't enough, I am aware na mas marami pa akong  makapangyarihang taong makahaharap at makakalaban.

And in order for me to be alive is to earn money...lots of money and probably establish a connection.

That is hard, but everything can be answered. Every problem has an answer after all, sa madali man o mahirap na paraan.

This is sending me thrill. The plot is no longer the same with the novel since I entered it. Hindi na ito ang storya ni Erin, kung hindi parang naging akin.

Kinabukasan ay nangako sa akin si Hugo na tutulungan ako sa mga plano ko, lalo na sa pagbili ng bagong matutuluyan. But before we start a thing, he told me to meet him inside his office kaya noong pumasok ako ay dumiretso na ako sa pag-upo.

"Ilan ba ang pera mo sa ngayon?" he asked me.

The currency in this world, novel rather isn't the same with Earth. May apat na klase silang currency dito. Copper, pinakamababang pera. Silver para sa pangalawa at kung may isang daang silver ka ay magkakaroon ka ng isang gold. Gold is the third highest coin, mostly nobles ang nakakahawak diyan and the current highest coin ay platinum.

You can have one platinum kung may isang daang gold coin ka.

Inalala ko ang total ng perang naitabi ko.
