Chapter 7: "Aftermath and Shadows"

(part 1)

The city of Manila was eerily quiet in the aftermath of the battle. The once bustling streets were now empty, the people hiding in their homes, their hearts filled with fear and uncertainty. The battle between Alejandro and Bungisngis had taken a toll on the city, leaving it in ruins.

In the heart of the city, the students of the jujutsu sorcerer school gathered, their faces etched with grief. Their mentor, Maestro Alejandro, had fallen in battle, his life sacrificed to protect the city. They were leaderless, their beacon of hope extinguished.

Ramon, Ligaya, and the others stood in silence, their hearts heavy with loss. Alejandro had been more than just their mentor. He had been their guide, their friend. His loss was a blow they were not prepared for.

But even as they mourned, they knew they couldn't afford to let their guard down. The city was still in danger, the threat of curses still looming. They were jujutsu sorcerers, protectors of their city, and they had a duty to fulfill.

Unbeknownst to them, they were being watched. Hidden in the shadows, unseen by the human eye, were three figures. One was small and wrinkled, its form barely visible in the darkness. This was Nuno, a curse known for its cunning and deceit.

The second figure was tall and imposing, its form half-man, half-horse. This was Tikbalang, a curse known for its brute strength and speed.

The third figure was shrouded in mystery, its form hidden in the shadows. It was a powerful curse, its presence sending a chill down the spine of anyone who sensed it. This was the Anito, a curse whose name was spoken in hushed whispers, its power feared by all.

As they watched the students, the three curses exchanged glances. They had witnessed the battle between Alejandro and Bungisngis, had seen the power of the jujutsu sorcerers. They knew they had to be careful, had to bide their time.

The students of the jujutsu sorcerer school were unaware of the eyes watching them from the shadows. They were lost in their grief, their hearts heavy with the loss of their mentor. But even in their sorrow, they knew they had a duty to fulfill. They were jujutsu sorcerers, protectors of their city, and they would not let Alejandro's sacrifice be in vain.

Ramon, despite his grief, took charge. He was Alejandro's star pupil, his power and potential evident in his every move. He rallied the others, his voice steady despite the turmoil he felt inside. They had a duty to fulfill, a city to protect. And they would not back down.

Ligaya, with her healing abilities, tended to the injured. Her hands moved with practiced ease, her power soothing the pain and accelerating the healing process. She was a beacon of hope in the midst of despair, her kindness and compassion a comfort to all.

The other students, despite their grief, followed their lead. They trained, honed their skills, and prepared for the battles to come. They were jujutsu sorcerers, protectors of their city, and they would not let Alejandro's sacrifice be in vain.

Meanwhile, the three curses watched from the shadows. Nuno, Tikbalang, and the mysterious Anito observed the students, their eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and caution. They had seen the power of the jujutsu sorcerers, had witnessed the fall of Bungisngis. They knew they had to be careful, had to bide their time.

As the sun set on another day, the city of Manila was once again enveloped in darkness. But even in the darkness, there was a glimmer of hope. The students of the jujutsu sorcerer school were ready to face whatever came their way. They were jujutsu sorcerers, protectors of their city, and they would not back down.
