Chapter 8
At their hideout, Armor King suspicions about Juan Rafael who was very angry after their confrontation with Miguel. Then, he coughs and Zach tries to help him.
"Master, are you okay. You are not so well." Zach was upset seeing his boss is getting weak.
"Just be quiet." Juan Rafael spats on Zach as he drinks the potion of immortality to make him feel better. "I want to live any longer even I was born in 300 years."
"But, master. If you get dose of that potion you're drinking. You will get immune on this." Zach was pretty upset seeing him.
"I don't know if I get immune. Maybe, if I have to fight him one on one." Juan Rafael was pretty upset as Armor King watches them.
"That man… it seems that he is very old man as I thought." Armor King muttered as he leaves.
"Huh? Who's there…?" Zach suspects that Armor King was no longer his bodyguard and finding out the truth.
At the clinic, Miguel, King and Kikay arrive at the clinic in which Clarita and Spence were waiting for them.
"Clara… what is that stuff?" Miguel asked.
"That's an antidote, Spence found a healing herb that was hidden thru the secret box and then I make this as an antidote."
"That was a relief… So, we can save the mayor."
"I hope so…"
With this, Clarita gives the antidote to the current mayor in Manila as he drinks it. Then after he feels much better after he drinks the antidote.
"Uh… what am I doing here…?" The current mayor asked them.
"Mayor Sanchez, we were worried." Spence was happy and he looks on Miguel.
"So you must be the person who takes over my role as the mayor. You have a lot of potential. I must say…"
"Well, at least you were alive and well, sir." Miguel smiled.
"My name is Adolfo Sanchez and I'm the real mayor in this capital. I knew that you were the ones who can care about my illness." Adolfo was quite getting recovered from the illness as he told them. "I will tell everything about to make this capital a better place. I really need some rest."
Back at the office, Miguel was sad he remembers Juan Rafael who confronts him earlier and King, Kikay and Clarita arrived on his office.
"Miguel, you're still at the office." Clarita said as he looks at them.
"Yea I know…"
"Anyways, we should get back to our home y' know. It's kinda getting dark in the city hall." King said while he tells them.
"There's a story I really need to tell you before we're going to leave in this city hall." Miguel said while he lowers his head. "Their current mayor chooses me to be his caretaker since he is an old man. But it's all about Juan Rafael."
"Can we listen…?" Kikay smiled childishly.
"Of course…"
The three stays in the office as Miguel tells them about Juan Rafael.
"How did you met Juan Rafael?" Clarita asked.
"Well, that was 11 years ago. I met that man by the name Juan Rafael Ibarra. He is a Filipino-spanish with no discipline like me. Since I heard about Rolando's stories about the history of Simoun, I found out everything about that man. When I was 15 that man is very greed on the money and he has the same style as mine in brawling.
Flashback 11 years ago
"You should fight more wisely, boy. You are not very good." Juan Rafael boasts Miguel who is beat up.
"Urgh, don't you dare make me a bad manner. You…" Miguel was angry and Juan Rafael leaves.
Miguel explains that he has a negative side between in his home country in Spain and he reveals to them that he was really a rebel. After his sister takes care of his injuries before her death, he really cares for her.
"You should be careful of what you did, Miguel."
"Sorry, sis… I make everyone very upset because of me." Miguel said sadly.
"You know, Miguel. Juan Rafael is different. Do you know why?"
"Um…"
"He was born in 1896. He is the descendant of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra and he is still lived within 300 years."
"What! That man who beat up in this kind of age. That was crazy…" Miguel was shocked about what she said to him.
"I think it's the time to change to ways, Miguel. You still have to time to change things."
Flashback Over
"Now I realize that Juan Rafael still alive and I saw him after 11 years. That will be abnormal. In fact, we got to stop him and get that box."
"To tell you this… Once the box we retrieve has to thrown back into the sea. Miguel. That Juan Rafael seems to be greedy when it comes to jewels." King said and someone arrives.
"The office is open, come inside!!!" Miguel yelled as the person revealed to be Armor King.
"So this is the mayor in this capital…" Armor King sees everyone is in the office.
"Well, the real mayor was going to have a recovery soon, so I take his place for a while."
"Why are you here, Armor King?" King asked. "I saw you working with that greedy man."
"Nope, I'm just pretending as his bodyguard. You see, Juan Rafael is coughing in his territory. I think that was the time he is going to die from old age." Armor King explained.
"Are you serious…?" Miguel said shocking. "That bastard is going to die by it."
"I don't know but, what I saw he drinks a potion of immortality to make his life much longer." Armor King said as he warned them. "I warned you, Juan Rafael is a tough customer and you find out about the secret."
Armor King leaves them and Miguel finally understands this.
"I have to stop Juan Rafael in my hands…" Miguel said as he clenched his fist wanted to fight Juan Rafael one last time.
