First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse

The moment that girl talked about his power and his weakness, Isiah sat immediately ignoring the pain he felt while doing that, he looked at her blue wide-set eyes then said firmly:" Who are you? Why am I here? ".

She smiled at him then said:" I was taking a walk with my cute dog when i saw you there, you fainted on the ground for god knows how long, it looked like you needed help, you were desperate and I was there, so …it felt like the right thing to do ".

" Clearly you don't know who I am, or else you wouldn't help me ".

" Should I know who you are! Are you a narcissist or something ?"She said with a calm gentle voice full of sarcasm.

Isiah said with a terrible expression on his face, it was fear, anger mixed with disappointment:" Do you go to the institution of magic? ".

"No !".

" How come? Every kid in this place is forced to attend that institution ".

"Well, I don't like being in closed spaces with people, I never liked that feeling and I avoided it to the maximum ".

" So, you ran away !"

"I did it quickly if you know what I mean ", She winked at him.

" What? is that even possible!"

The girl ran her hand through her hair and then said :" Yes if you are smart and powerful enough" .

" Do you mean that you finished your study there? at such a young age?"

" And I will take the evaluation test first thing after the triple full moon ".

Isiah was stunned yet he tried to suppress his reaction. He looked at her this time very closely, she was around his age, petite body, good sense of fashion. She certainly looked way dressy compared to the girl he studied with.

Isiah stood up on his feet and then walked toward the door, not giving her any reply to what she said, she followed him immediately and then said:" Do you want me to prove it to you so that you believe me ? ".

"Don't worry I believe what you said, it happened once before, it is just I am not interested in your life story".

"The first time it happened that person terminated the old globe and destroyed every chance that we would live in peace. I am different from him, don't compare me to that devil… I get it, you are weird, compare me to the one who opened the portals of hell in our world!". 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

Isiah ignored her completely so she said:" there are some things different about you but somehow I want to know more about you … Tell me your name, well I am Ethyl Connor".

"Isiah Duncan" .

"Well, Isiah Duncan,if you ever found yourself outnumbered in a fight you can always call out for me, I will help you for free, this girl has power and she will help a friend if he asks politely ".

This time Ethyl laughed when she saw that he was upset. Clearly, he didn't like the fact that he looked so weak in her eyes .

Isiah stopped for a moment then re-looked at her and said:"I am ….Isiah Duncan…The mass genocide's brother ".

When he told her his name first, she didn't recognize him first but this time when he said it that way he just confirmed the truth to push her away.

Somehow he didn't want to see her reaction to what he said and continued walking without even bothering to take a look at her face.

"Wait ….you …", She said.

He was not going to stop after that revelation and Ethyl couldn't stop him either because of her confusion.

Her house was so far and set on the border of this village, just a small cabin in the woods, he wondered about how she was living here and with whom but he rejected those thoughts right away.

He just couldn't waste his time and emotions thinking about someone else who was not him, he needed to think about him and only him ….

That was his plan to survive this place and he would not compromise it over anything.

He cursed a lot on his way home, a girl made fun of him, bragged about her powers to him, and even teased him like a weak stupid person .

He was too angry to notice the pain was long gone, even the bruises were about to disappear, they didn't heal immediately and instead, they are healing normally but at a faster speed.

He checked one of his leg injuries to see some green runes floating in the air, then he realized that it was a magic spell made by Ethyl to heal him naturally.

He then cursed even more because he was still under her influence .She must be enjoying seeing him in this situation.

The moment he set foot in his house his mom said :" You didn't come right away after school to help your father with pre-triple moon preparations, were you having fun with your friends to forget about such an important thing " .

" I was just …", he muttered.

" We are far behind, you will continue working this all night, this ignorance is what led us to this point with Lucas, I will not tolerate such behavior, kid ", His dad added.

"First, eat your dinner then head back ",his mom said .

The bruises didn't vanish right away, his face was still injured yet his parents didn't bother to ask him where he got those injuries or if he was even okay after all .

That hurt him a lot but he reminded himself that they are monsters like his previous ones and started to do what they asked him to do .

He spent the whole night moving every precious thing into the basement that was crowded with a lot of stuff.

The scent of fresh animal meat that Johnathan hunted was strong and the moment his nose captured it, Isiah vomited right away on the floor, after a lot of years here he should have been used to it but he just couldn't ….

His first life didn't vanish …it was still there …

It was just a matter of time so that he goes crazy and then nothing would stop him .
