First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse-Chapter 22 Complexity

The complexity of human relations is weird, even when you are related by blood to them you can't always treat them like you are treating yourself or even more valuable than that.

Even when you are so close to them you have to take caution with their emotions and be sure not to hurt them.

Family relationships have decency which was absent from Isiah's life.

His first parents sacrificed him as if he was not of their own.

They wanted to manipulate their disciples and he looked like a pain in their asses, they had to get rid of him to express their control over their cult ….Their precious cult.

? After reincarnation, all he wanted was to pass by without notice but here he was left behind after being mistreated along the way.

His two lives were just him stuck in an empty circle of self-pity and people-pleasing, weakness, and lack of confidence.

This time he knew exactly what he meant to them, and for that, he was going to be the worst version of himself.

He tried over and over to make them see that he was harmless but he failed to do that and instead he was labeled as a threat for just breathing.

But not anymore ….not anymore …He kept repeating inside of his head.

Isiah looked at his mother and said:"You didn't do anything to have kids like us!!! Are you kidding me …you didn't do anything for us and that's why …that's why …everything….shiiiiit ….you didn't fight for us, help us, stand for us when the world was against us, teach us when we are mistaken, lead us the right way, you just stood there and expected miraculously us to be good "

"How dare you, Isiah?"Johnathan interrupted him while rising his fist in the air.

"I don't want to be a parent in the future, and I don't know shit about parenting but living with you made me realize that I just don't want to be a parent like you "

" You are following your brother's path,'' His mom yelled.

"I didn't give a shit about anyone in my life "He meant his two lives.

"But all I can say is that I have curiosity towards Lucas, he brought hell to you for a reason, I mean who wouldn't do that after being mistreated like this ".

"Mistreated??? Whaaat !!!We haven't done shit to you?"Lisa said.

"Yep …you didn't do anything for me, I was just another copy, a corrupted copy of my brother, I don't even know if I could call him that, but I am corrupted in your eyes and that's all that matters "

His mother was still crying but his dad stepped towards him leaving his wife behind and said:" I bet that you can't even do something crucial like Lucas if you know what I mean …Lucas has terrific powers, he is smarter, stronger, and by saying that you are a corrupted copy of him you are just raising your worth when in fact you can't reach his level, not now ….not in a million year…you should accept this and move on".

Isiah looked at his father's eyes for a long time, and that was a first because he usually was too hesitant, too weak, and too pitiful to do a small thing like that. However what he saw in those cold eyes was something different than what he expected, his father had a secret twisted pride for his old brother's monstrous action.

He grind his teeth with anger then said as calm as he could:" If Lucas borough hell to this world then I must tell you dad… that I am going to turn this place into hell"

His father didn't even consider what Isiah said as a threat, he didn't even reply to him when his mother looked at the horizon and thought deeply before saying:" You don't know Lucas, there is one thing that you need to know Isiah, Lucas was called a prodigy his whole life, do you think that it was for no reason, Lucas did what no one did since the blue sage brought this world to its shape…firstly they studied his case like crazy …they just couldn't find when the attempts of ruining the world began with him"

Isiah rolled his eyes trying to show her ignorance when in fact he was still listening to her because he was interested in knowing his brother's story.

"He had powers, amazing powers ..and when I say this I mean even teachers from higher regions were amazed by him ..he was able to fight like the guards, chase like the hunters, revive things that were deprived of their divine energy, create hard spells that no one was able to copy…. a prodigy doesn't give him his right description.."

His mom stopped talking for seconds, tears started to show in the corner of her eyes, his dad continued:" You didn't do half what he has done at the age of ten, and you still brag about ruining the world …huh …like you have the skill to do that ".

Lisa grabbed his father's hand and said:" You will never be like Lucas, that's why I am asking you not to hurt yourself in the process, by nature you are not driven by emotion so don't start to be one ".

Isiah smiled in despair, he knew his place from the beginning but his parents' words gave him a hard time accepting that all over again ..

Of course, Lucas was a legend that doesn't come twice but at least they didn't have to be this rude about it .

Johnathan pushed him away when he passed him followed by his mother and said:" Don't follow us …we are going to live peacefully …we tried and tried ..over ..and…over ….but this time …it's over".

His mom didn't say a thing so Isiah looked at them both and laughed loudly with all of his efforts, that wasn't funny at all yet his laugh didn't stop, in fact, it looked more like a cry for help. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"tsk tsk … that stupid bastard, even now he is just going to be acting edgy " , Johnthan said whispering to his mom but Isiah heard him.
