The Lady Knight

Result of Training

Kimberly Pov

Kanina ko pa tinitingnan itong si Devon pero parang kinidnap naman ng alien ang kaluluwa at ang isipan nito. Pansin kong nakatulala ito sa kalangitan, malayo na ang naabot ng kaniyang mga mata. Hindi ko ma reach. Parang may plano yata itong abutin ng tingin ang langit. 

Tsk! As if she can. 

Naging tulala lang naman ito pagkatapos naming kumain sa cafeteria at kung sinu-suwerte ka nga naman ay nakasama pa namin sa iisang table ang Elemental Prince. Actually, it's a combination of being lucky and unlucky being with that elusive prince earlier. 

Lucky, because that said prince was known to be distant and snob to everyone but for him to took the initiative to joined us in our table was worth remembering to the rest of lives. However, we wouldn't deny the fact that he brought trouble and bad luck as well to us, especially to the commoners. Marami kasing mga tagahanga ito kaya hindi kami nakatakas kanina sa matatalim nilang mga tingin. 

Hmmp! As if naman aagawin namin iyong prinsipeng iyon. 

"Bes, kailan tayo magsisimula?" Liah asked to me.

Tumingin ako sa kaniya at pagkuwan ay umiling.

 "Asked her." Itinuro ko si Devon. "Siya ang trainer natin diba?"

Napangiwi naman ito sa aking sinabi.

 "Eh ayoko nga. She's scary," bulong nito sa akin.

"Yeah. Sinabi mo pa," i agreed to what she just said about Devon.

Napatuwid naman kami ng tayo ng  biglang binalingan kami ng tingin ni Devon. 

Her red eyes bore on us sharply. 

"I heard that," she coldly said.

We gulp when she said that to both of us. Mukhang hindi kinaya ni Liah ang intensidad sa mga tingin ni Devon kaya parang takot na kuting itong nagtago sa aking likuran.

"Ano ba! Stay away from me," pagpapaalis ko sa kanya sa aking likuran pero mas lalo lang nito hinigpitan ang hawak sa aking beywang. "Isa, Liah!" banta ko rito pero nanatili pa rin siyang nakakapit sa akin mula sa aking likuran.

"Stop it you two!"

Napatigil kami sa pag-aaway ng marinig namin muli ang makapanindig balahibo na boses ni Devon.

"Give me 100 push ups before we start are training," she seriously said.

"Pero-" Liah was cut off instantly.

"In count of three!" Devon is giving dagger looks to both of us.

"Masyadong ma-" i said but i was cut off when she raised her voice on us. Giving us with full of authority as if we're currently on a military training.

"123..GO!!" Giving us command with full of authority in her voice as if we're currently on a military training.

At natagpuan nalang namin ang aming sarili na nagpu-push up. This is one hell of a training and Devon is a hell of a trainer too. Walang awa pero sa tingin ko naman ay malaki ang maitutulong nito sa amin.

Liah Pov

"f**k!" i cursed after i am done with my push ups in such a very long duration of time. 

Devon didn't settled for just a hundred of push ups as she double the required number for it. Parang gusto ko ng sumuko pero mas pinili kong itikom ang aking bibig kaysa magreklamo sa kaniya dahil naka-ukil na sa aking isipan ang dahilan kung bakit ko ito ginagawa ngayon.

I want to be strong and powerful like her. I want to show my parents that i'm not weak anymore and i'll prove to them that i'm not a disgraced from our family.

Larson Family is one of the well-known families in the Magical Realm that is known to be dangerous, powerful and very influential. Lahat ng kasapi sa pamilya namin ay kapwa malalakas at ako lang itong naiiba, isang mahina at sabi pa nga ng iba ay di karapat-dapat na magdala ng apelyidong Larson. Ako daw ang nag-iisang nakakatawa at tinuturing na isang basura sa pamilya namin. That's why i'll do anything just to become powerful and no one can stop me to achieve that goal of mine. 

"Rest for a minute because the real training is just starting."

I gulp when i heard that from her. She is really one of a kind. Sa unang tingin ay parang mahina lang ito na babae dahil napakaamo nitong mukha but i know that she's one hell of a strong fighter. 

Her aura is so powerful and dangerous that is enough to make you fold and bend your knees on her. Ngayon palang ay alam ko ng mahirap itong kalaban dahil para sa akin she's the Goddess of War of this Generation. A very beautiful woman who is deadly and powerful enough to took down her opponents in just a blink of an eye. I'm not being exaggerated here, i'm just telling the truth

Her red eyes is very scary as f**k especially when she's mad, her gaze is sharp and intense. Pero okay naman ang mga mata  nito kapag masaya siya at kalmado, hindi siya nakakatakot pakiharapan kapag ganun siya. Her long blond hair on the other hand looks so perfect na para bang parating naka-rebond, look so smooth and shiny as well. Tatanungin ko nga sana kung anong shampoo nito pero hindi ko na tinuloy. Nakakahiya. Baka sabihin nito na inggit ako sa kanya. Huwag na uy!!

"Time's Up. Pwede na kayong tumayo," Devon commanded that we obediently obey. Mahirap na at baka maging war freak itong trainer namin.

"Release your magic and stay focus while doing it. Show me how strong you are," seryosong sabi nito sa aming dalawa ni Kimberly. 

Napatingin naman ako sa kanya at gulat na gulat itong tiningnan. Did she forgot that i still can't do such thing? 

"Remember, show me your fullest potential. Ayoko ng tinitipid ako," dagdag pa nito na lalong ikinakaba ko.

"But how about me?" nangangambang sabi ko sa kaniya. 

I am very scared right now to release my full power because i know that i can't still control it properly like what my family can do. Baka may masaktan na naman ako and i don't want that to happen again.

"So?" she asked. Walang pagbabago ang emosyon sa mukha nito na tila ba walang pakialam sa sinabi ko. She just stare at me, telling me to trust her words. 

"Hanggang diyan lang ba ang kaya niyo? Kung ganoon lang din naman pala na pinapangunahan kayo ng inyong takot, bakit pa tayo magpapatuloy? We're just wasting our time here then?"

Nagkatinginan kami ni Kimberly bago namin pinakawalan ang aming kapangyarihan. I have no worries left at all because i trust everything to Devon's care. I know that she's sure about this and all i need to do is to trust her words and trust myself as well.

'Kaya ko ito. Just concentrate and stay focus, Liah. Para sa pamilya mo ito. Laban lang!'

"It's time to take that limiter away from your body, Liah"

I heard Devon said to me. Ngumiti lang ako sa kanya at pagkuwan ay sinunod ang utos nito.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!'

Someone Pov

Nagsimula ng tumaas ng tumaas ang antas ng kapangyarihan nina Kimberly at Liah kaya naman unti-unti na ring nagkakaroon ng pinsala ang training ground na kanilang kinaroroonan. The wall around them slowly shows sign of vulnerability and if it still continues, the entire training ground will surely blown away. 

"So strong," tila naaliw pa na sabi ni Devon habang nakatingin sa mga kaibigan niya na kasalukuyang pinapakawalan ang buong lakas ng mga ito. 

"As expected from them," she added.

When she notice that the level of their power is on its peak, she bravely do her part as their trainer. Lumapit ito sa dalawa at hinawakan ang mga kamay nito na ikinagulat naman ng kanyang mga kaibigan.

"Stay away from us, Devon! You're risking your life for us!" kaagad na sabi ni Liah sa kaniya. 

Sa halip na bitawan ang kamay ng dalawa ay mas hinigpitan pa niya ang paghawak sa mga ito at bigla nalang may kung anong liwanag ang bumalot sa kaniyang katawan. It's a strange golden light that made the two of them close their eyes.

"By the power bestowed upon me

Let my magic purify their body

Sacred Magic: Heavenly Purification!"

After Devon chanted that, Kimberly and Liah's magical power instantly drop as if it was turn off and shut down by force. Hindi ang mga ito makapaniwala sa lahat ng nangyari at lalong-lalo na sa ginawa ni Devon na nagliliwanag pa rin sa sandaling ito. Mas nagmukha itong anghel ngayon dahil sa liwanag na bumabalot sa kaniyang katawan.

"Try using your power,"  sabi ni Devon sa mga ito ng bumalik na ito sa normal nitong anyo.  "Let see if we succeeded."

"Poison Ball." Liah made a small ball of poison in her palm and she was shocked because she did it so easily. Hindi katulad ng dati na bigla itong sumasabog pagkaraan ng ilang segundo. Ito ba ang resulta ng pag-eensayo nila kay Devon?

"Flower Tornado." And even Kimberly who just used her magic to form a strong tornado made by her petals was also shocked about what she just did. Pagkatapos nilang gawin ang mga iyon ay tumulo ang kanilang mga luha sa sobrang saya. At pagkatapos niyan ay niyakap nila ng mahigpit si Devon at taos pusong pinasalamatan ito.

"Huwag muna kayong mag-saya dahil nagsisimula palang tayo," nakangising sabi ni Devon sa dalawa at pagkatapos niyan ay nagpatuloy pa sila sa kanilang pag-eensayo.
