Chapter 75 Destruction
"You are diabolic now ..just like any other thing in the world beyond"
Isiah remembered what the voice told him before he chose to bring destruction to the region he lived in his whole life, just for a desperate chance to go back.
He didn't hesitate for a second when that voice explained to him what that meant, and what the consequences were.
" Destruction! I don't care even if i had to eliminate everyone in that district to go back again" Isiah screamed.
All he could remember at that moment was the sensation of that sword inside of his chest.
' I am diabolic now, i bet that human laws don't work for me '
Despite the voice's lack of explanation, he was able to gather his thoughts about his return destination.
"The portals that open every 90 days are the way for me to go back, am i right ?" Isiah wondered.
" It is the only way for you to go back there, however, once you are drained of your dark energy, you will be doomed in that place" The voice answered.
" How am i going to exist there?I think that i am going to have troubles with compatibility... even divine energies are not the same let along with the dark energy "
"Yes, you will"
"And? "
" You have to figure it out on your own" The voice laughed after that like he was mocking his survival instinct.
" Let's do it " Isiah affirmed, the voice was very confident, he was not even surprised by what Isiah said. It was as if he was predicting it all along.
" Then destruction, it is ".
The amount of time that Isiah spent in that superficial layer of the world beyond was not quantified to him, the portals opened at the same time like all the triple full moons, and the red and purple aurora were decorating that night sky, what looked more like a small window to the world beyond was a huge portal in the old globe.
Isiah tried to hold his shit together, this was the first decision he made and for some reason, he loved the feeling of choosing himself first.
' I should put me first...i should put me first..i should put me first' He kept on saying that expression all the time to ease the impact of what he was going to do.
" Remember, you only had the chance to leave this time because of that person" The voice shouted, " If you mess things up this time, you will face a much worse fate than oblivion and this place"
Isiah was about to reply and ask again about the person who saved his life, but the portal opened fast and pulled him like a magnet to teleport him to the old globe.
" The full moon it is, " Isiah stated.
It was going to be him who benefited this time from Delwias Island's worst event.
His heart was pounding, he closed his eyes the moment he was pulled, that transition was so fast and scary and his body was not used to it.
Now that he was hovering in the air, he was able to see what was on the other side of the portal, the scenery of the forest in district one, it looked the same as when he left it.historical
He sighed for a second and then tried to go closer, but that didn't work immediately.
He thought of the transportation to enhance it, just like when he was using spells that didn't work.
"Make sure to level down or you will never level up" he was told again before he got pushed into the portal and passed despite his failure the first time around.
The passageway was painful to his body, he was able to feel the dark energy inside of him, a tiny portion of divine energy( from Emperium and Delwias Island) but it was so minuscule to the point where he thought it was not even there to begin with.
however, the moment he set foot in that place, the first thing he felt was his non-compatibility.
Even staying there was not possible, the air there was different like it was so heavy to the point where he was unable to make it enter his lungs, the pressure was strong like something was pressing his body to stay on the ground, and his ears were piercing just because of the bugs' voices, the temperature too felt off, as if he was going to ice if he stayed there just more couple of minutes.
Isiah was hit by how tremendous the changes were when everything just looked the same as he left them.
'This is what compatibility means' He thought before he collected his strength and started to walk towards his house first.
The sky was filled with red and purple aurora, no sain human would be wandering around at a time like this, so Isiah walked comfortably not caring much about anything.
He knew that he was not going to be the only one that could transport through that portal, just the thought of him having this chance was making him very grateful.
He remembered the looks on their faces and their agreement on killing him, and just like that, his heart was shut totally from any feeling.
He had to go back to the institution to relax for a bit and gather his strength to find a way to make this process easier.
The silence around was strange and suspicious, there were no screams, no burning smell, no scary sounds, no hellhounds, the portal that brought him didn't bring any other creature with him.
Isiah remembered what Ethyl said that night when the portal opened, the hellhounds were the first dark creatures to appear but for this day it didn't happen the same way.
' Hellhounds, dark creatures, now that I am using the diabolic core of magic it makes one of them ...i am a dark creature now ..I am a dark creature..it means that i have powers...'
Isiah stood for a second before he continued to walk toward the institution with a satisfied smile on his face.
