Chereads / The Devil's Creed / Chapter 13 - A Painful Reality

Chapter 13 - A Painful Reality

Unaware of all the unboxing happening on the other side of the castle, Isaac was still unconscious in the infirmary.

He had a peaceful smile on his face, as though he was satisfied with whatever he was seeing in his dream.

He stayed in his happy unconscious state for hours to only woke up to see the same old castle ceiling and empty infirmary beds.

The duo of Mathew and Calton didn't seem to have waited like the last time and had abandoned him immediately after throwing him at the infirmary.

Just as Issac was about to get up and walk outside, a woman who looks like she was in her age '40s entered the infirmary. She seems to be wearing a maid custom.

Looking at the woman with a shocked expression Isaac

" Do people honestly even Cosplay at this age??"

The cosplayer also seems to have been taken back by Isaac's stare but soon her shocked face changed expressions. Her facial expression suddenly shifted from irritated to hostile.

*bang!*

With a loud bang, she placed the water basin she was carrying on the ground and said something to Isaac.

Isaac was even more confused now because he couldn't understand what she was growling.

Isaac may have not read or heard about all languages back on earth, but he knows what most of them sound like.

And he was sure that whatever gibberish this woman over here was blabbering in no way included among them.

Though they had a few or certain words that had some similarity with a few languages, Isaac wasn't certainly sure whether they have the same meaning.

Leaving the language aside the woman, for some reason whatever she saying Isaac wasn't sure, but ever it is it wasn't pleasant to hear.

She seems to be hostile towards Isaac, who was supposed to be a total stranger to her.

After leaving the water basin and the towel she was caring on the floor in an orderly manner.

She stood up and pointed them and then towards Issac and glared at him with the same hostile eyes, until the last minute before she left the room.

" what the hell? What just happened here?"

What is going on here?

Weren't dreams supposed to end as soon as I woke up?

Why am I still here? What was that voice in my head?

I thought all this crazy shit would be over, I would wake up at home and be able to see my mom.

Just as Isaac was about to continue his train of thought, he suddenly felt a dreadful intent directed towards him.

He quickly came out of his thoughts and turned to find the source of the intent, only to discover the maid creepily glare at him with a half-open door.

Not wanting to find out what will happen if he continues to ignore her.

He promptly stood up and walked toward the basin, he seem to have understood the underlying meaning of her prior gibberish lecture.

Only after catching sight of Isaac getting up to do the chore, did the woman leave.

As soon as the woman closed the door, Isaac removed his clothes and started to clean himself with a towel and the water in the basin.

After finishing all the cleaning up, Isaac tried to lift the water basin and carry it towards the door.

But as soon as he crouched down and tried to do so he felt the greatest shock of his entire life.

The basin was heavy as fuck!!

He felt maybe this was the reason that maid seemed to be mad at him, but after careful reflection, he remembered that the maid just brought in the basin with ease, So he tried a different approach.

But even with all his efforts the Fucking Waster basin that the maid brought in with ease was not even moving an inch, even with all his maneuvers, techniques, and might he can't even make it move or budge an inch from its spot.

After attempting to in with all possible ways he finally gave up on his futile attempts. And tried to check himself at the full-size mirror at the infirmary.

He wasn't sure whether it was his imagination or not but he felt like his crony body seems to have improved a little.

Just as Isaac was doing all kinds of bodybuilder poses in front of the mirror, the maid who had been waiting on the outside entered the infirmary.

Without even mind the half-naked Isaac, who was posing, she just barged into the infirmary, took the basin, and gazed at Issac with an emotionless expression.

She then turned around and left not minding the embarrassed Isaac.

If anything she had a disgusted glint in her eyes, she even spat on the floor before she took the basin and left the infirmary.

Seeing her behavior just now Isaac couldn't hold back his irritation.

" What's up with her? Look at yourself in the mirror first, you gorilla woman."

Soon after the embarrassing incident with the maid, Issac didn't want to be humiliated again so he quickly dressed himself up with a new set of hospital dresses that was neatly folded and placed in the infirmary cabinet.

«•••••••••••••(Isaac POV)•••••••••••••»

After dressing myself I sat down on the bed and took a fruit that looked like an Apple from the table nearby and started eating it.

The moment I bit the fruit and it entered my mouth, I suddenly started feeling something sweet just melt in my mouth.

The sweetness then started to flow smoothly towards the belly and from there it sent warm and gentle ripples throughout my body.

Without even realizing it, I let out an embarrassing moan in the pleasure of eating the fruit. I have never eaten anything like this in my entire life.

Before I comprehend what was going on, my hands and mouth started going on autopilot mode. It only stopped after I finished all the fruits in the basket.

For the first time in my entire life, I felt a feeling that I have never felt before. It's the feeling of being full, I was so satisfied that it even made me tear up a little.

As I was enjoying the feeling of having my physical needs fulfilled.

Mathew and Calton entered the infirmary to check up on me.

I would have been shocked to death if something like this had happened before the 'Ritual' incident.

But after going through the experience of drowning to death my personality seems to have changed and I couldn't actually keep my emotions under control.

As soon I saw them I want to yell at them for being all mysterious and stuff.

But I soon controlled my impulse to do so, but my face still seems to have expressed my thoughts.

Seeing my expression and my seating near an empty fruit basket, Mathew gazed at me with an understanding look and said,

" I assume that you have calmed down a little,

I know it was my mistake for not answering your questions and taking you to the class without any proper explanation."

He immediately then bowed down and said.

"For that, I apologize."

Seeing the muscle brain actually bow and speak to someone respectfully other than Owen, was a shocking sight for both me and Calton.

Then he continued to thank me for saving his young master's life. Which made Calton frown his face, he somehow seems not pleased with the new information he heard.

Seeing his face a smug appeared on my face, I thought

'Sucks to be you bitch !!'.

Because I know that Calton always thought of himself to be the left-hand man of Owen.

But the gesture of Mathew thanking me and speaking in a respectful tone has made him vary of his position in the gang.

Not noticing any changes in Calton, Mathew continued to explain the incidents that transpired after my drowning and the circumstance of how we appeared in this New world they call 'Orenda' and even explained to me all the things Isabella had thought them during the class.

I remind being silent till the end of his speech, I want to believe that all of his words were a lie and this was just a dream but deep down something in me seems to know that wasn't the case.

I then looked at him with tear-filled eyes and asked

" Then will be able to see my mother ever again?"

For that question, he remained silent but his silence has given me an answer.

The more the silence deepened, the more I couldn't control

"Seem like I was just trying to avoid the truth, please can you both leave for a few minutes, I want to be alone"

Respecting my destination Mathew stood up to leave but Calton was about to say something.

However, Seeing Mathew not minding my rude request, he was even more displeased but he didn't voice it out loud and followed behind Mathew glaring at me.

Soon after they left I covered myself in a blanket and started crying out loud accepting the painful reality.
