Isiah looked at something getting out of the grimoire, a small little snake coming out of it, its color was shiny black, and its upper lip, chin, and lower part of the neck were white. its belly was white, mottled with gray, its eyes were yellowish ..
It was moving fastly and Isiah didn't know what to do because he never dealt with a snake before, but with the look at its size it didn't look very harmful.
The little snake followed him immediately and he tried to kill it by stepping on it, but it was very fast which made him try to wave his leg to move it away.
The snake was locked there for a long period of time and by the look at its behavior it was very hungry, and he was afraid that it would poison him if she bit him.
' I would die immediately if it did that '
The snake then stopped following Isiah and it seemed like it found something that captured its attention.
The black little snake was licking his blood from the ground, Isiah was stunned by that look and the more he observed it he felt terrified , he had never seen a snake behaving that way and he didn't want to interrupt while it was having a drink of his blood.
He tried to pass by the snake to go to the grimoire, he walked faster and hold it with his hands , the smell was strong and the moment he made it closer to him he noticed the writing in the air appearing again.
( Isiah Duncan, you opened the grimoire)
" Nothing impressive if you ask me"
( Yeah? )
Isiah nodded because he was waiting for something to appear instead of this smell and smoke but nothing appeared.
( Well, to the first level on the world beyond, make sure to not cry, you asked for it )
The person was laughing at him and he couldn't tolerate it even for a bit, the next thing that happened he found himself in another place.
It was very wide but the era seemed different than he used to see, the sky was dark , the smell was awful and it was more like reeking dead bodies, he saw buildings there but it was not similar to what he saw in district one, the building was built like temples but it didn't look very holy to him, so much noises that he couldn't recognize, music that seemed more like crying cats to his ears, everything looked very scary, and dark and the terrifying things were the things that inhabited the place, he couldn't even recognize their species to classify them into a category.
Isiah tried not to walk fast or slow, he just stood in that dark corner looking at everything around him with curiosity.
' i am not in the superficial layer of the world beyond, i am in the first level, it seems that the thing that i had to do was open the grimoire.I think that that place didn't even exist due to the transition, it was like a blink of an eye, i didn't feel pain or anything, i really think that the place didn't exist but …where was i? '
Thinking about what was happening to him was giving him a headache, after a while the blood stopped falling and Isiah found it easier to put the grimoire on his pants above his stomach, it was visible but he didn't have to hold it with him all the time.
Seeing two monsters passing, he was very scared. Their faces looked like goats, and their bodies were larger and stronger than humans.
Isiah cursed with a low tune and then walked to the back because he was so afraid to go further, he decided to walk in the dark corridors until he get an idea about how to survive in this place when he didn't look like them.
Screams were heard from afar in every path he took, he didn't know what to and what those screams meant, the language they were speaking was so much different than his, even in the superficial layer he got those persons talking with him his same language, but here nothing seemed to be recognizable.
Isiah walked in the dark corridors for hours, the streets were made of cement and they didn't look good either way, he missed earth architecture.
<strong>"This is a human, and he is wondering in our world, have you ever seen such a thing before? "</strong>
Isiah heard two creatures talking to each other when he was caught by surprise. He didn't understand a thing but he freaked out and tried to run away.
"<strong>Who gave him the permission to be here? </strong>'' The first one said.
" <strong>But he is here already, I guess he is functioning with dark energy, how is that possible? '</strong>' The second answered.
" <strong>Is he an intruder? well…let's not think more about it, we have a free meal and we should enjoy it, i mean the fuc****g human taste better than anything"</strong>
"<strong>Free meal, free meal!</strong> "
Isiah was already on his way to run away, the two creatures followed him immediately with their saliva dripping from the corner of their mouths, he didn't know what they were talking about but he sensed the danger as they were coming closer to him.
He ran with all he could and still he was followed by them, he was very afraid that in his path he would meet others and it would be impossible for him to fight them but he didn't stop, his survival instincts were at their peak.
' You fuc***ing monsters won't catch me, i still have to learn more about this place but for now let's just survive this sh***t'
Isiah reached a dead end, he was very scared and he was already tired from all the running, the creatures seemed to recognize his species, and he had to run away.
In that dead end, he saw a window open in one of the houses, he heard screams inside like all the ones he heard since he got here, he was terrified but he jumped into that tall window with a lot of difficulties, the room was filled with those creatures, he couldn't count them when he saw then but it was more than 20 creature and they were all surrounding another creature like them.
' Are they killing someone of their own? '
