" Well, it is either you leave mister Arino or face the same fate, what do you choose? " One of the mages said to him.
Arino was stunned by his boldness, he looked at Chris again and he didn't seem like he cared a lot about his response.
"How dare you say that to me? Are we killing each other now?"
Chris smiled at Arino then said:" Don't care about what he said, he is just too attached to the cause, i can't blame him if he said such a thing, to him you must have appeared like you don't care about the cause"
" I know what you are doing Chris," Arino said.
" I am not doing anything, we are all here trying to protect our people, you are the one here trying to waste our time by your stand, if you don't have any further things to say then you should leave and hide with your family, it is the triple full moons, after all, it is going to be tough times, may the divine energy be with you" Chris preyed then turned around to focus his attention to so many papers that were lined up in his kitchen table.
Arino couldn't say a word after that, Chris basically kicked him out of the house.
So he walked slowly as he passed the forest to go to his house, he finished the preparations to protect his wife and little kid then sat in front of the house gazing at the void, his wife was so worried about him, his silence was just giving her a hard time, she sat next to him when she realized that he may stay there for the whole night if she didn't talk to him.
She put her hand on his shoulder and pat him then said:" Maybe we should go inside the house, the triple full moons is about to happen, look at the sky"
Arino didn't do that; instead, he looked at her when she had his attention, his eyes were filled with pain mixed with regrets.
"I can't believe that they shut me down like that, i thought about you and the kid, if i made a scene they would have hurt you, we would be the next Duncan family around here " He explained.
" It is for the best to stay away from them"
"I can't believe that they locked the people from district two outside the palace on a day like this !"
His wife leaned on his shoulder and closed her eyes then said:" I am not justifying what they did, but we alone can't do anything to stand against them, dear"
" And that's what is killing me " he shouted after he punched the ground with his fist.
"Something seems off about everything, and no matter how much i tried to figure it out, i always end up clueless "
************
The portal that helped Isiah get transported didn't bring any other monsters or dark creatures, so the area next to the institution was safe and sound, however, just in district one, there were a total of six other portals that brought hellhounds and other dark creatures.
Isiah was still adjusting to the changes inside of his body, he kept on thinking about how he would be permanently here when this event occurred.
Unlike the divine energy coming from Emperium, Jivan's spell was very advanced and required a lot of power and even after that, he was still unable to master it, so he created a bracelet to regulate and stabilize it.
He needed something just like that, something to help him stay here for a long period.
He needed to have more divine energy in order to increase his chances of staying here rather than going back. It was inevitable that he would stay here, but the method was still unclear to him.
' Now, i function with the dark energy which means that i can't even stay in this ridiculous place, by the end of the triple full moons i will suffer from lack of energy, this is my best chance to take advantage of this event when Delwias Island is so close to the world beyond'
Through the dark corridors he walked, his gaze fixed as he walked to the classroom where he hid all the resources to study them.
' Honestly, I have no idea if the magic system I have is like the one that works with divine energy. I have not even mastered the normal method to get into a new situation'
Isiah sighed before he opened the door of his class, he looked around, and everything was still the same, he smiled creepily then continued to walk inside of the class.
The moment he saw the wooden chair he threw his body in it, he was gasping for air now, but he couldn't stop himself from laughing loudly.
As he chuckled intermittently, he bent his head to the back and rested it on the chair, then he muttered to himself:" I can feel the change, fu**** the divine energy and fu*** everything in this damn region, i really didn't need to study, to obey, to pray, to fuc***ing listen to anyone's ideas, to even interact with this pathetic creatures,i fuc***ing understand now why those higher-ups left everyone around, without powers we are just useless, i was useless this whole damn time"
He didn't pay attention that he was speaking loudly with such emotions, he kept on looking above him, to the ceiling to be exact then he said with a scary smile on his face:" Fuc***, i really can't tolerate anything above me anymore"
He lowered his sight this time and looked around, the resources were just exactly as he left them despite all the time that passed, only some dirt was covering them but in general, they were intact.
'Regardless of how hard it is, I must find a way to stay here. I don't care if I have to keep the hell doors open' He thought once more as he put both his hands on the bureau.
