SOMEONE POV
"Are you ready, Baby Kingston?," his mom asked that for the fifth time.
He heaved a deep sighed hearing that same question again and again. Parang mas kinakabahan pa ito kasya sa kaniya eh.
"Mom, you already asked that same question to me five times in a row. Are you not tired asking that to me?" he said that made his mom lips pouted.
Kaagad itong bumalik dito sa mundo nila pagkatapos masabihan ng kaniyang Dad na may misyon siya sa Uni-World.
"Nagtatanong lang ako eh," sabi nito na may kaunti pang pagtatampo sa kaniya.
Nginitian niya ito bago magsalita, "I'm ready and I'll be okay, Mom. Don't worry"
Mas lumapad ang kaniyang ngiti ng yakapin ito ng kaniyang ama mula sa likuran at pagkuwan ay hinalikan ito sa pisngi.
"Love, our son was already old enough to take care of himself," malambing na pagkakasabi ng kaniyang ama pero tila wala namang epekto iyon sa kaniyang ina.
He just let out a soft chuckled when he saw his Mom rolled her eyes.
"Bakit ikaw? Matanda kana pero kailangan pa kitang alagaan," reklamo ng kaniyang ina sa sinabi ng kaniyang ama.
His dad just sweetly smiled at her. Hindi nito alintana ang pagtataray nito sa kaniya.
"Because it's your responsibility as my wife," his dad sweetly answered.
"Let's divorce then," Maging siya ay nagulat sa sinabi nito. "Pero syempre joke lang," pahabol naman nito.
Nakahinga naman sila ng kaniyang Dad ng maluwag ng marinig nila iyon sa kaniyang ina.
"Kingston, it's time."
Napalingon naman siya sa nagmamay-ari ng boses na iyon and it's his Ninong Hades, standing in front of the portal that the God of Underworld personally made. That portal will serve as his bridge that connects Warlord Realm to Uni-World.
The Uni-World according to God of Underworld- Hades himself is the world for all races.
It is the biggest world existing in the Universe that is enough to cater all the races that not just visited the said world but also live there permanently. It was twenty times bigger than the Warlord Realm and ten times larger than the Magical Realm.
So big right but still manage to hide its existence to mortals?
Warlord Realm is much smaller compared to Magical Realm because unlike Magical Realm who was slightly bigger than the size of the Mortal Realm, its size was included to those worlds which were considered as dwarf realm like Fairy Realm, Dragon Realm and many more. There were too many realms to be mentions because the Universe was so wide and there are still few worlds out there which are too far away and some of it is not yet known to everyone, especially to mortals.
"Pupunta ka doon na ganiyan ang suot mo?" kunot-noong tanong ng kaniyang Ninong Hades ng makarating siya sa harapan nito.
"Really Kingston? Ganiyan talaga?"
"Why? Was my outfit that bad?" he asked and then he gave a quick glance at himself.
He’s wearing an all black outfit. Black is his favorite color anyways so it’s not that shocking anymore.
He's wearing a black standing collar long coat and a shirt underneath it. Aside from that, he's also wearing a black fitted pants and a black combat boots that complemented to it. He wanted to wear a complete armor set earlier but he doesn't want to be the center of attraction in that world that's why he ended up wearing this kind of outfit.
'Am i look old-fashioned?' naitanong nalang niya sa kaniyang sarili.
“Magpapalit pa ba ako ng suot, Ninong?” tanong niya sa kaniyang Ninong Hades.
Umiling naman ang Ninong Hades niya sa katanungan niyang iyon at pagkuwan ay ngumiti.
"Masyado kang gwapo baka pagkaguluhan ka doon"
He just chuckled when he heard that from his Ninong Hades.
"Aalis na nga anak ko, pababaunan pa ng isang pambobola," pasaring ng kaniyang Dad na ikinataas naman ng kilay ng kaniyang Ninong Hades.
"Palibhasa, di ganun kagwapuhan ang isa diyan," parinig naman nitong isa pa para pang bawi.
Bago pa mapunta sa matinding bangayan ay pinigilan na niya ang mga ito.
"I need to go," sabi pa niya sa mga ito pero bago siya makapasok sa portal ay niyakap siya ng mga ito. Pagkatapos niyang yakapin ang mga ito pabalik ay kaagad siyang kumalas sa mga ito bago pa humigpit at hindi na siya makaalis pa.
"Bye."
Kumaway siya sa mga ito bago siya tuluyang pumasok sa portal.
He just found himself flying inside of it for about a minute or two.
That only means that Uni-World was too far away from his own world. He extended his arms and assumed that he had wings, flying smoothly toward the end of the portal.
Pinikit pa niya ang kaniyang mga mata ng marating niya ang dulo ng portal dahil sa sobrang liwanag at hindi niya inaasahan ang bubungad sa kaniyang pagdating sa Uni-World.
"What the f**k!" he exclaimed.
KINGSTON POV
I just found myself falling from the sky in a very fast pace.
I didn't expect that the portal will put me in this kind of situation. I'm sure kagagawan na naman ito ni Ninong Hades. Kahit hindi ko ito inaasahan ay hindi naman ganoon kahirap para sa akin na lagpasan ito.
It is so basic for me.
I smoothly landed in the ground and didn't mind all those races that are staring at me in awe. Rinig ko rin ang pagsinghap ng ilan sa aking kapaligiran na hindi naman nakakagulat pa para sa akin.
Sino ba naman kasi ang hindi magugulat kung hindi ako sa mismong entrance ng Uni-World dumaan diba? Anyways, that's not my problem anymore. Blame the God of Underworld.
Tumayo ako ng tuwid at bahagyang inaayos ang buhok kong ginulo ng hangin kanina. I even fixed my clothes, making sure that I still look decent from their eyes.
Hinawakan ko rin ang espada, ang Hellion, na nakalagay sa likuran ko at siniguradong nasa ayos pa rin ang pagkakalagay nito roon. It's the Hellion sword and I must put extra care on it. It’s a gift of Ninong Hades that I need to be treasured.
"Shocks! Ang gwapo girl."
"Yeah and she's mine."
"Anong mine ka diyan tumigil ka nga. Ang pangit mo para patulan niya!"
“Excuse me. Are you talking to me? Di hamak naman na mas maganda ako sa’yo. Mag salamin ka nga at tingnan mo kung gaano ka kapangit sa personal. Don’t be so conceited b***h!”
“Eh gaga ka pala eh. Hetong sayo!!”
I just rolled my eyes when those bitches ended up pulling each others hair, obviously fighting for who should be the one to own me. Makakalbo sila ng walang mapapala sa akin.
'Sorry b***h but I'm allergic to your kinds'
Haist. Ang gwapo ko talaga.
Inilibot ko ang aking paningin kalaunan sa buong lugar pagkatapos kong purihin ang aking sarili. Hindi nagtagal ay tumuon ang aking atensiyon sa pinipilahan ng ibat-ibang uri ng nilalang.
May nakikita akong elves, fairies, vampires, werewolves, dragonaires, witches at kung ano-ano pa pero wala akong mahagilap na isang demon o anghel man lamang.
This realm is indeed the world for all races except mortals because they still not aware that we, our kinds, truly exist. They just believe that magical creatures like us that were featured in their movies and published books and novels are just work of mortals’ out-of-this-world imagination but the truth is we really exist.
'I need to register myself first,' sabi ko sa aking isipan habang nakatuon ang aking buong atensiyon sa registration area na may napaka-habang pila.
Seeing that long line was enough to ruin my smile. Mabagal akong naglakad patungo sa hulihang parte ng pila at tahimik na pumila roon. I don't want to wait that long but Ninong Hades told me that the moment I enter this world, I must register myself first to the system of this world.
May balak din sana akong takasan ito pero hindi ko magawa dahil mahigpit akong pinagbilinan ni Ninong na kailangan ko magpa-register muna.
Ninong Hades said that the registration process plays a vital role in this world as it make sure that the balance and orderliness will not be ruin nor broken despite of the increasing populations in here.
Sa sobrang dami ng pumupunta rito ay hindi na nakakagulat pa kong may kaguluhang mangyari pero dahil sa ganitong proseso rito, nalilimitahan ang hindi kaaya-ayang mga kaganapan katulad ng ibat-ibang uri ng krimen. Because once a registered citizen was detected to break any rules and created a big scene against the law of this world, he will surely die right in the spot.
I don't know if it's true or not but seeing that this world is very peaceful and everything is pretty organized, I'm now convinced that it was true. Akala ko panakot lang ni Ninong pero hindi naman pala.
I just don't know how it is possibly done. I mean i don't have a slightest idea why registering to the system of this world can kill someone. I’m kinda finds it as an interesting stuffs to be discover but I’m not here for it.
“I am number 155.”
Napabuntong hininga nalang ako ng mapagtanto kung masyado na akong huli para sa registration. This will surely consume a lot of my time and I have no choice but to deal with it. Napakahaba ng pila at hindi na kataka-taka pang tatagal ako rito ng ilang oras.
"Are you new here?"
I stilled when I heard that familiar feminine voice behind me.
I then slowly face the owner of that voice and I was so shocked seeing her so familiar face.
Totoo ba itong nakikita ko? Buhay siya.
How is this possible? I saw her died in my arms so… how?
"S-Savannah."
