When Isiah eventually opened his eyes it was after a few seconds from closing them when he jumped toward the snake to save it from the dark rain.
Surprisingly it was not as bad as he thought, he has some misleading perceptions that followed him from when he was a human, and he needed to remove them so bad.
Now, the darkness was just another regular thing in his messed-up life. Blood, heat, dark atmosphere, and killing were just something that he needed to get used to.
He stood slowly as he was still covering the snake with his chest and then looked above him while raising his head toward the void..
As a former human, he only thought that there was a sky there somewhere but he couldn't see it, his mind was so shaped into ideas like that. Ideas that he found very difficult to remove.
Whenever he was forced to make a move, he found himself projecting it into his mind with human thoughts.
' I am no longer a human, yet all my thinking is more like a human, this a new world, the rules are not the same, what killed me as a human wouldn't now, however the only constant thing between these two worlds is the seek for power '
Isiah looked down after that only to see the snake looking at him with a weird look as if she was conscious, her yellowish eyes glowing in the darkness of that place.
'I wonder if it is a she or a he, hummm, I really can't tell '
Isiah started to move her around to check her full body for the first time since he met her. He was low-key searching for genital parts.
' Funny, how do I keep assuming your gender, well …I will treat you as she, unless you prove me otherwise' .
Isiah realized that he was even thinking about keeping her for a long time .
' What am I doing ?'
For a second Isiah shook his head and then threw the snake away on the ground under that bridge.
' What has gone to me? Fu***ck ! The stupid snake '
The snake was not hurt when it impacted the ground, it just moved fast and started crawling under the bridge while he was still looking at it with a very cold look .
When Isiah knew that the dark rain was not harmful he just started to walk away from that bridge near the borders of that river.
Isiah walked in the rain for a long time, however, he was not even tired now that he knew that he was able to fight, and do what he wanted.
This place was filled with creatures, which was a very weird thing , compared to Delwias Island this place looked like it had a huge population with a lot of races.
' How come this never crossed my mind? How come in Delwias Island there were more like five races, nothing more, five races!
on earth there were like 5 races in total, there were subgroups of the races but the race number was 5 , is it a coincidence?
the fact that we have 5 districts with 5 races in Delwias island is it a coincidence? I am not sure !
How come we don't have any other races here? like some new race !
For them, it would be normal but for me, for a person who has been in the two worlds, this is very confusing .
The similarities are terrifying ! Even the language ? How come I never thought about such a thing? Was I too consumed to prove myself and my worth to everyone there to miss such an important thing ? '
This place was different in a good way for Isiah because only here he was able to think more about stuff that he never thought of when he was alive.
What interrupted his thoughts was the sound of hissing behind him, he turned around immediately to see the snake was still following him like usual .
' I guess we are linked somehow, however, I refuse to accept that anyway, maybe she is thinking of me as her mother, I don't know how things work for animals but I will never tolerate her presence in my life, her or anyone else in a matter of effect '
Isiah for some reason didn't encounter any other creatures on his road that suspected him due to the vampire's fancy clothes, he didn't open his mouth so that they wouldn't notice the absence of fangs and he continued walking with pride and confidence as they do.
He walked for a long time until he reached a place that looked like a sea.
It was connected to that river, and all those corpses ended up there from what he saw.
He stood there for a while looking at the sea which looked very scary. He didn't know where all those corpses went, because after they reached the sea water they all vanished from his sight.
.
The sea was very stable, there was no movement in it, no waves, it looked very creepy somehow, no voices, no single sign of life in it .
The sea looked so clear to the point where Isiah was able to see his reflection even when there was no light there .
It felt like the sea was emitting light somehow and Isiah didn't have a single explanation for that .
' So , I think it is a sea. It looks like a sea if I am not wrong, and somehow the sea is connected to the river I saw before. Those corpses look like humans, but I don't know if they belong to the old globe or earth.
They are all connected somehow and I need to know more …more…more .'
Isiah got closer to the sea, he wanted to touch it with his hand, he thought that it was the same situation as the dark rain and therefore he just wanted to explore more about the world.
Suddenly, the snake crawled so fast toward him, that he was already bending his hand to touch it when he felt the snake's fangs on his hand.
He shouted when he got bit because it took him by surprise, then he moved back while the snake was still attached to his hand and then cursed loudly as he threw it away .
" Now, you chose to bit me , you stupid snake "
