When Isiah opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was the blue sky in front of him, he was too sedated to close his eyes again, he kept looking at the clouds as they were passing above him .
He was not interested even to know how much time he spent in that position, he only cared about the clear sky above him .
There was no region above him , it was only a blue normal sky just like on earth .
That scenery was so peaceful to him, so peaceful to the point where he kept looking at it without thinking of a single thing that might disturb him at that moment .
After a while, Isiah sat on the ground to look at his surroundings .
He was surprised that he was naked, it felt just like that time when he woke up in that superficial layer of the world beyond .
He felt shy because he didn't want anyone to see him, he automatically looked at everything around him only to see a field of grass .
He stood up on his feet to get a better vision of that place , only to be stunned later, this place was not large as he thought .
The place was the size of his house on Delwias Island, it was not that big .
He started to walk later to investigate, however, he realized that he was alone in this small place .
It felt like he was on the top of this leveling system and he didn't know why he was there .
He never knew about these higher regions, he only knew about Emperium because it was the dream that everyone put in his head , it felt like a solace for most of the people there only for him to be disappointed later .
His interpretation of the events was that he was in a higher place in that system .
His imagination gave him a picture like that to describe the 1 region.
Isiah went to the edge of that place and looked around then he looked down, what he saw was nothing like he had ever seen .
All the peaceful feeling that he got from looking at the sky was long gone .
Because down there he saw a huge amount of people fighting to get up here, Isiah was more confused by the look of those people, they appeared to be more like dead people which made him flinch for a second .
There were millions of people down there trying to get into his place, they were moving on top of each other with that scary look in their eyes and Isiah was more confused then he ever was .
" Why are they acting like they are racing to get here ? There is nothing here , there is nothing , and why in the hell, they are all looking like they are dead ? Why I am here in the first place looking like I was born into this state "
Isiah kept talking to himself because there was no one there to talk with , he noticed that those people were really very close to him so he tried to push them using his magic , he was strong after all and he could end all of them if he wanted .
But what was more confusing was the fact that his magic didn't work, he was not capable of doing anything.
Eventually, those corpses got into him and went towards him and started fighting with each other to eat his body .
He was still alive and he felt every break , every bite, every chewing that was happening to him, he was screaming because of that immersive pain that he felt yet he couldn't do a single thing until everything.
" Master, wake up, wake up, you have to wake up"
It was Eijar's voice, when Isiah heard that he opened his eyes suddenly only to realize that he was inside a nightmare .
Isiah sat immediately because of the fear that he got into him, he found out that he was resting his head on Lexie's lap, and he looked at her with confusion .
" Master, master, look at me , it was only a dream " Eijar said trying to make him go back to reality .
Isiah looked at Eijar this time and then said:" I ….I …"
Lexie was more terrified of seeing him in that way, he never looked like that, she headed towards him immediately, he was looking at his body as if he was seeing things that they were not capable of seeing .
Even when knowing that she jeopardized her life by approaching him in this state, she just did it without thinking of any consequences .
" Isiah, you are okay , you are okay " Lexie said while approaching him so fast .
She put her arms around his neck without being fast or even impatient, she just hold him between her arms as gently as possible without even having eye contact with him .
If she had eye contact with him she would be terrified of him , and she would eventually tremble and fall and get pushed by him, anyone .
She was so sad that he was going through something like this, and therefore she just did it to calm him for a bit .
Isiah was so terrified, and even when she hold him tight he tried to push her away immediately, she knew that he was not doing it because of her but because of his nightmare .
' He is definitely seeing something else '
Isiah's heart was racing with each minute passing and so does her heart, Lexie tried to touch the extremities of his long dark hair , Isiah yelled the moment she did that and tried to push her even more .
Lexie was confused by the way he was reacting to her, so she just hold on to his body tightly then got closer to his ear then whispered:" Isiah, it is only me , the girl you hate the most, I am not going to hurt you, because I can't do that, and I believe that you can't let me hurt you anyway, you are too cautious around me for understandable reasons, and you are too strong to be hurt"
As she kept talking, Isiah's s heart started to calm down and beat slower than it was .
She touched his hair again and this time he didn't even flinch but he kept resisting so she added:" I know that you are very strong, I know that you could kill me too, I don't know what you saw there, yet , I have to tell you that you are safe, no one here could harm you anyway "
When his heart started to beat slower than before Lexie just rested her head on his shoulder while still hugging him then said slowly :" Everything is the same , just like you left it before, the chaos you made is the same, the hurts you ripped are the same, the sent of those corpses you killed are the same , the kid you left crying is the same , this missed up region is the same , Isiah you were sleeping and during that nothing changed "
Lexie was saying those words slowly like that just to make him believe each word she said.
She wanted to assure him that nothing changed yet she ended up wanting to be that close to him, it felt like she was craving for this to happen .
She closed her eyes to feel him that close to her, Isiah didn't move either, he just kept listening to her while breathing heavily for a while .
Eijar was more surprised that Isiah didn't push Lexie which proved to her that he was not in his right mind yet .
To Eijar, Lexie took advantage of the situation but she tried not to say anything unless she makes him go back to his senses.
Isiah stayed that way for a while before he said with a cracked voice:" Eijar, did you do it on purpose? "
He was still that close to Lexie while closing his eyes, however, Eijar was more confused now, obviously, he was going to blame her for this, because it was the second time this happen to him when she use her ability .
Yet, when she used it on Ciel nothing happened .
" Master, no " She denied immediately, she even felt offended that he said those words .
Isiah opened his eyes right away then said:" Okay "
He removed Lexie's arms right away without using force, then he pulled his body from being glued to her chest then said:" What did you do to those bodies ? "
"Heigl is burning them, he thought that burning them is going to reduce that sent, when he knew about your condition, he offered to help " Eijar replied to him .
Isiah was very pissed now that everyone knew about his condition and he felt really edgy, he looked at Lexie right away from above then said:"Why is she still here ? "
It felt like he finally noticed that she was there, Isiah gave her a cold deadly look then said:" I bet you liked it this time too "
