Chapter 6 Kumuyom ang aking kamao, tumingin lang sa akin si Enzo, in the silence, I know he has seen the clear resolve that burned in my eyes. "Enzo..." "Hmm?" "I will come back here... and I will take back what has been taken away." He smiled, "now we're talking." We rested for a few minutes more before we decided to walk again. I didn't have a concrete destination in mind, but I followed the lead of Enzo as he is the one who has more experience outside the Kingdom Palace. We soon reached the end of the forest and a path was shown before us. Nasa gilid na kami ng bundok. Tumingala ako at nakita ko ang palasyo. It was glowing and beautiful as always-however, it is filled with people who have stolen what was mine. My heart sank in pain, but my mind was raging with fury. "Enzo..." I called out his name once more. He looked at me, "hmm?" "I saw your wound." Lumapit ako sa kaniya at tiningnan ang galos sa kaniyang braso, natuyo na rin ang dugo, but it needs to be mended or else it will get infected. "Don't worry, malayo ito sa bituka." "Malamang, sa braso e." I said, trying to lift the heavy mood. He just chuckled. Lumunok ako nang bahagya bago ko napagdesisyunan na tanggalin muli ang singsing-I felt the sudden rush of power within my veins once more, and Enzo just looked at me curiously. I put my hand on top of his wound, I closed my eyes and imagined it healing. When I removed my hand, the fresh wound was already gone. Muli kong sinuot ang singsing. Enzo just stared at me, amazed. "I've never seen a holy magic that can do something like that." He scanned the part of his bicep where there used to be a sword wound, he seemed astonished. On the other hand, I felt my energy drained a little more again. "Maybe because this is a cursed magic, like what Pope Mateo has said." Sagot ko kay Enzo. "Well, it is a beautiful cursed magic, if it is." I cannot really say that... This same magic is the same magic that has killed my mother, and I failed to use it to protect my father. This same magic is the same magic that has caused everything to be gone as well. "It is your fault for being weak." The voice said. "But you can change that and be stronger than you are right now. You know what to do-accept me, do not suppress me." And the voice had a point-I was weak. If I was stronger than this, I could have prevented this to happen. Maybe this was destined to happen to teach me a lesson, that if I want the throne-then I have to work hard for it... In order to deserve it. But I am not yet ready for this power... Which is why I have to suppress it first and learn how to control it and make it mine. "Turn your weakness into strength, and you'll see more of what you can do. I already told you-your magic is on par with God. Your Creation magic is not a curse, but a blessing. The people are just too afraid of what you can do, that is why they have persecuted you." Muli kaming naglakad ni Enzo. "So, saan tayo pupunta?" I asked. "Well, if you want to have your retribution, we need to build an army first." "Where are we going, then?" "To find one."
