First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse

Chapter 21 The Aftermath



The first region with all of its districts was going through the hell of the triple full moon that happens once in 90 days, for the other higher regions it was just a night like any other night.

All they know was that somehow in this particular event, an unidentified number of portals open in the first regions that connect both worlds, for years creatures appeared and caused a crazy amount of destruction in the first region.

People died, and people lost everything they had. Therefore they learned to co-exist and treat the night as a surviving mechanism.

It was difficult at the beginning but now they all figured out how to survive the night, that was until the monsters were not all they had to worry about ….but people like them too.

People only knew about the statistics of this night's loss by the expedition that explores the world beyond, huge amounts of dead people, destruction everywhere, and even the destruction caused by people who want to take their vengeance for people they hate and blame it for the creatures from the world beyond.

When there was chaos, there were also parasitical people who took advantage of that.

Most of them were mages and hiding their murders was easy for them, they didn't even think of channeling their powers to kill the creatures that visited one day in three months for the past years.

It wasn't the duty of the expedition to do statistics but since they didn't do their actual job for the night, they had to take some credits somehow.

That night Isiah just spent it next to his house looking at the remains of it, while thinking deeply about the decisions he made for his first life and his second two.

If he had just been obedient and walked the road his parents made for him, he would have been living comfortably without all the pain he was living through now, even in the old globe he was just having a much worse time because he was punished for sins that he didn't commit.

Living this way was his fault and this night showed a lot. Learning magic now was a priority and no one will stop him from that, not even the parents who abandoned him to die.

When the lineage of the moons ended after three hours, things went quiet to their natural way and Isiah's parents went back to the house.

From what his dad said, he just made a disappearing spell to hide his mom and himself all that time.

Unlike all the past years, Isiah didn't reply to him, he didn't even look at him, he just stood up and left them there.

He kept walking in the forest until he reached the empty field next to his house and lay there. He was too exhausted but his heart was pondering as if he was running for miles now.

Tomorrow will be a day free of study too . The institution gives them in a total of seven days of rest during this period, five days before the triple full moon and the day itself, and a day after .

When you already have a basement usually there is no significant damage aside from the mess outside the house, but this time because of what people did to them the mess in Iisah's house was bigger than they could handle.

He looked at the region above and said: " How is it for all the people above! Why are we suffering like this! ".

Envying them won't change his future and that's why he just closed his eyes until he slept soundly while thinking of everything around him.

***********

Johnathan and Lisa made a complaint to the guards of Delwias Island first thing in the morning to get the king's empathy.

Because of lack of evidence, and the absence of punishment against the people around them, they didn't even get help from the ruler of this region.

Lisa was so angry when she went back home, she sat on the ground in front of her house and said to her husband:" We have to leave this place, we should have done this a long time ago, we should have left, we can't live with this people, we will always be the traitors, and I can't just keep living this way".

"We lived here our whole lives, what are you saying ? ", Johnathan replied anxiously.

" I am leaving this place, I am going and I will never come back to this district. Johnathan, I will go and live where my parents live. They will not be happy with this but at least they won't kill me like these people wanted to do last night ".

"You want to leave me after all these years !".

" I am not leaving you, I am leaving Lucas, I am leaving Isiah, I am leaving our failure behind us, I am leaving this awful life that I have been forcing myself to it ", Lisa was crying this time .

" What have we done to get kids like this ? "Jonathan was not expecting an answer but she replied to him:"Let's start our life again, this time just the both of us, we will never repeat our mistake again ".

" When you say it this way …you make it sound easy ".

"It is …..easy ".This time she got closer to him and hugged him trying to persuade him to leave with her .

" Leave and do what …exactly !"

" Stay and do what …it is all the same ".

Isiah was standing closer to them hearing what they were saying, they were leaving him with no regret at all, he wanted to cut their conversation and tell them about all his angry thoughts, but he just looked at them as they looked at the house for the last time before leaving.

Isiah walked towards them, he didn't say anything …just stood in front of them and his mom said:" Promise me dear, promise me that you won't learn magic so that i will be okay…i will be happy if you promised me dear " .

He smiled sarcastically and then looked into her eyes and said : "I will learn magic …I will cause this world more than my brother did, I can assure that at least ".

Johnathan raised his arm wanting to slap his face but Isiah objected to him and held his arm in the air and said while laughing: " Well, I am not your kid anymore, I never was, to begin with, and I will never ever let you punish me for things that I didn't do, nor the things I will do ".

" Bastard , just like that monster'' .Johnathan yelled at him.

" Yes …more than him if you ask me, but I leave it to you to judge "

When he approached them he just wanted to see them for the last time, but instead, he ended up saying these awful things to them.

"I will ascend, I will never think about you, dad, mom, I will never consider returning to this region, you chose yourself and I will choose myself this time ".

"Starting from today, you are not our son," Johnathan said

" Don't learn magic, Isiah, why is it so hard for you just to pass by ".

" I lived that way my whole life, you were just too busy to notice that I was just breathing as you told me….mother, don't try to force things okay ….just like you said to dad…you were doing it your whole life …this time just say it ", Isiah yelled at her more when he added, " say it ".

Lisa panicked because he never treated her this way.

" What have I done to get kids like you …".
