"Our brothers are the heirs, we are the spares, but some of us do not have the abilities to protect ourselves," Calaenos said in front of us.

We are at Terreck Ground now for our training camp. We're going to train only for two days. The training of Regulars and Royalties is separate because they do not have the abilities like us.

Every year there is a Training Camp for two groups. So that you can develop the ability to protect yourself and the monarchy.

May mga iba't ibang pagsusulit ang ibibigay ng mga head sa amin sa training na ito na kailangan naming kumpletuhin.

We are in front of a large tree house where at the bottom of it there is a large stage.

"We are powerless," Calaenos added to what he said. "That's what people think of us. That we don't have the ability to help them develop,"

"So the head of this training camp is," he announced to us. "Aura Venom Baudouin." He applauded so did we. A beautiful woman appeared from the door of the tree house above.

Her hair color is black and at the end it is a little blond. The tip of his nose was a bit sharp and just right. The shape of her lips was heart-shaped. She was wearing a long dress with long sleeves and it just fit her body. She's pretty!

Parang isa siyang prinsesa ng mga anghel!

But she's kinda' familiar to me...

"Hey, Lazarus did I hear that right? Do you have the same surname?" I turned to Lazadrus when I realized something.

He just nodded and smiled at me.

So she's a princess!

We all bowed as she slowly descended the stairs to the stage.

"Good morning students of Pevanshire," ahhh her voice was very soft.

I saw her eyes glow and she was looking at behind me. When I followed her gaze I was a little surprised.

She was looking at my brother, and so does my brother!

Yes! She is the princess of Aysel so no wonder why her eyes glow like that.

"Royalties follow me!"  Aura strongly ordered then we followed her.

When we separated from the regulars we went to a large field. In front of us there are boards and some covered stuffs that have not been placed yet. There are also arrows on the side of the trees. There are also swords on its side. And the last are the trees with hanging cameras.

She motioned for us to sit down so we did.

"So, you probably know me before or just know," she slightly laughed before he continue. "There's a special gene exclusive only to the royals or who belongs to the royal families. A gene that gives us a extraordinary abilities that manifest at your age. Your abilities are unique to you alone and how you used it."

She grabbed something with buttons and then pressed a button there.

The others were stunned when suddenly every corner of the area darkened.

As the orange and blue gradually lit up I looked up to the front.

As the surroundings lit up I saw weapons on the side positioned in our direction.

"No bullets will come out of those weapons. Lasers will come out that will hit your skin. It will go over your clothes and radiate your skin, " she sternly told us then pointed one of the weapons. "And the only thing you can do is avoid or fight the one who hits you." Biglang umingay ang paligid nang sabihin niya iyon.

"What are we getting?" asked by Princess Zariah.

"A strong emerald from me," Aura said proudly. "And that's at the end, there." She pointed to the far end of the area where there were more surrounding weapons.

"Pwede niyo ring tamaan ang sagabal sa inyo." Dagdag naman ni Calaenos.

And suddenly I heard the timer sound.

All of a sudden high Plyo Box foams appeared in front of us.

I was running and avoiding the lasers when a larger Plyo Box Foam suddenly appeared in front of me and I collided with it which is why I slipped and the lasers were about to hit me when suddenly someone pushed me causing me to roll around.

I saw Marius and he used his abilities to avoid being hit by a laser.

He hurried over to me and helped me.

"Haven't you used your abilities yet?" He shouted at me.

"I haven't really practiced how to use it!" I also shouted back at him.

We did not even talk when Plyo Box Foam separated us.

"Ahh!" I screamed when I was about to be hit by a laser which was good and I avoided it and I was able to run closer to the emerald.

I looked at the weapons surrounding it. I took a deep breath and tried to concentrate.

When I was able to concentrate I felt my palm gradually warm up and when I managed to use the inflammatory I was able to hit the lasers.

It was as if the cycle of what I was seeing was in slow motion when I did not avoid the laser.

"Ahh!" I cried when the laser hit me. It hurts! It feels like your skin is burning.

I can not stand up! and I finally found out no one of us succeed.

"Learning to use your abilities is all about having a concentration, focus, and precision," rinig kong sabi ni Aura at nilapitan ang Esmeralda.

"Your abilities are being controlled by hormones, pressures, anxiety, stress, attractions, and even your temptations," rinig ko ring sabi mi Calaenos na nasa tabi ko na pala. Inabot niya sa akin ang kanyang kamay para tulungan akong maka tayo. "Training is about learning how to control them." Dagdag niya pa

"Do you think we will succeed in the tasks you have prepared?" Theophilus asked from afar.

I heard Aura step into the middle.

"The key of mastering your abilities is mastering yourself," she said sincerely and looked at us one by one.

"Pero ang hira--"

"I know how hard training is, but it is worth it."
