After killing that hellhound, Ethyl rested for a few minutes on the ground before she stood up again on her feet and said:" Well in the radiation of 10 miters this must be the only portals to the world beyond, from my past experiences, I guess this portals have some sort of distance between them"
Isiah replied to her:" How come do you know such a thing?, even the expedition that investigated the world beyond didn't declare such a precise thing like you are doing right now, your confidence might kill you in the future".
"Well, do you think that those bastards have the courage to go outside their hideouts on such a night to investigate the world beyond? If so where are their results?, they have been doing it for years now, how come the only thing they know about is the purple and red aurora that appears when the portals to that world open?, Name one other fact if you can"
Isiah rolled his eyes in disagreement and started to think about what she said, in fact, he was so shocked that she was right, in years and after all that research they didn't announce much to the public and when asked around they all agreed to say that those were some confident documents and facts.
"Who told you about this stuff, I am sure that a girl would never know about such a thing".
" Well, don't be a loser and say something like that, there's a lot that you don't know about me, '' she replied firmly.
Isiah looked at her from top to toe then said: "How did you learn about such a spell? "
No answer but this time she just walked away while shaking her head in disbelief.
That aurora just disappeared after killing that hellhound and the amount of divine energy absorbed in the process was huge to the point where all the grass in that area became crusty, it felt like it was drained from its life.
"Those are some interesting parents that you have, Isiah Duncan, are you sure that they are your parents?" .
All he could do was glare at her because she was going to cross the line with her rude words.
"They left you when things went wrong, I wonder what's in their minds".
Isiah walked toward her and because of his well-built body, it looked like he was going to hit her.
He grabbed her arm with force and looked at her disgustedly and then managed to say: " Just keep your mouth shut" .
She raised her head to look at his eyes because she was so small compared to him and then said:" You wouldn't leave them as they did to you, I just know that ".
Isiah tightened his hand around her arm without saying anything but she added:" Well, you are that weak".
Ethyl started whispering with a creepy smile on her face, his arms started to lose their force and move away from her arm, he was very surprised yet he tried not to show it to her.
"The next time you lay your hand on me I will cut it and decorate the institution gate with it, do you hear me, Isiah Duncan".
She even remembered what he said in a moment of weakness and said it to him back as a threat.
" So, you don't have any shocking power like the legendary Lucas, the one who messed everything for us, and even with being polite and harmless to everyone around you,. you are in this messed up situation".
Isiah bit his lower lip trying to contain his anger.
" You just listened to them blindly, you walked the road they made for you and craved for their acceptance like a fool, and they didn't even give you that in return".
Isiah was about to explode yet she kept talking to him easily like she knew him for ages, was he that obvious!.
"You stayed weak for them, even when you knew that you will never stand a chance to survive in this world, they should at least acknowledge your effort, you pitiful creature !"
Isiah retreated trying to avoid eye contact with her, this girl was different and he will never stand a chance in a fight or a talk with her right now.
Isiah started to walk away from Ethyl heading home when she laughed like a crazy person and said as loudly as she could:" If you are going to check on your parents then I must tell you that you are the most pathetic person I have ever seen in my entire life".
Isiah walked away from her and walked under the light of the three full moons.
She followed him saying:" Are you crazy! just tell me I might understand that you bastard!".
Even when she said those harmful words he just continued walking away as if nothing had happened. He thought that not replying to what she said might drive her away, but she kept walking behind him all the way mumbling about him and his way of thinking.
To her, he was just too hard to understand, the way he was sticking with his parents when they treated him like shit was just unjustified.
" Tell me again, why are you not causing trouble to them !", she yelled at him this time.
She was familiar with trouble because she grew up that way before realizing the need to be quiet to survive.
To her, Isiah looked like a bomb that is about to explode any second now, but the fact that he was still walking like nothing had happened was more than she could handle.
They say that Lucas was one time like this until he chose to go on the other way around.
He didn't show any signs, one day he just woke up and decided to destroy the world that the blue sage sacrificed his life to keep safe and sound
Was it that insignificant to become an evil person or was it the accumulation of all the pain and sorrow and failure!
