First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse-Chapter 53 Ciel

Richard's mother reached out to Isiah a few times after the day her son leveled up. He wasn't at his home most of the time so he didn't meet up with her, but he found out that she left him some food that she cooked, a few fruits her husband bought, and Richard's clothes .

She was his mother's friend, she was the one who brought him to life when only his existence was too hard to bear.

Isiah thought that she was feeling guilty because of what her son did in the past triple full moon, and that's why he chose to stay away from her.

He couldn't just accept her help with gratitude when she was feeling forced to do that.

He was basically living in the institution, reading everything related to magic with a lot of concentration.

Maybe in Delwias Island he was not putting an effort in studying because he was banned from practicing magic, but on earth he was a model student, he was on top of the class every year, they called him genius for that too.

He just had to put all his focus on it now that he is able to do whatever he wanted .

Isiah created a system in the institution, he organized everything that he gathered for the past days in his class room. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

He classified everything according to the topic, history books, botany books, alchemy books, magic books, defense books, autobiography and some random books that he couldn't even know what they were talking about.

The portions were named so that made it easy for him to know their use, he even searched in the books he found and found the recipe of most of those portions and wrote it down in case he needed it.

Botany was not that hard for Isiah because he attended Lautner's classes, and that's why he didn't find any problem following the lessons there.

For days he lived off some fruits he collected in the forest near his house. He knew that it was not good for his health but he couldn't afford to buy anything.

Isiah was able to hunt because he accompanied his father for years, and his body built would have helped him but he chose not to, He hated eating animals.

He was forced to do that in his past life and in this one too, his parents here thought that he was not normal for that, Johnathan punished him a lot when he was young as he saw his abstention from eating animals as a spoiling behavior, therefore he just starved him for days whenever he just showed some expression of disgust around the kitchen table .

His days after the evacuation were very productive.

Isiah was very busy learning theoretical stuff, he felt like he discovered a whole new world.

Sure, being late to know about all of this made him feel far behind from everyone in Delwias Island, however he tried to do his best in the meantime.

History books were the obscure part about the whole process, for someone who knew that a world without magic exists somewhere he couldn't understand where the break point was between earth and the old globe.

On earth there was no magic, or at least that was what they told him his whole life through the education system and the media.

And here in the old globe magic existed since the beginning.

He kept on wondering about the origin of magic, but he found nothing .

He read several books talking about the source of magic in Delwias Island, most of them weren't that precise.

In all of the books, there was a mention about the blue sage who created the leveling up system.

But the source of the divine energy was not mentioned in those books. Isiah was so curious yet he was not satisfied with the lack of information.

For someone who spent his first life searching conspiracy theories due to his trauma, the first thing he thought of was that the people in Delwias Island weren't supposed to know a lot of things to begin with.

Maybe there was something bigger than them.

On his way home, one day Isiah met a little kid in the middle of the night, he looked like he was 6 years old, his features were different from people here in region one, he had welcoming blue eyes with golden hair and a very pale skin tone.

The kid looked like German kids on earth, and Isiah couldn't just ignore him once he noticed the difference in his look.

Isiah looked at him for a second, then continued walking on his way after .

"Mister.. mister…"Isiah heard the kid calling for him but he continued to walk and chose to ignore him .

However the kid didn't take the hint, and ran towards him and grabbed his tunic when he reached him to stop him.

Isiah turned around to face him this time, and the first thing he saw was the kid's innocent smile.

He had no front teeth, he was on the age of changing them.

"What do you want, kid?" Isiah tried to hold his smile while looking at his cute smile.

"I am hungry,'' he responded to him .

"Where is your parents?You should be with them right now"

"I can't, Katarina said that they are not here anymore "His smile was still there.

Isiah thought to himself that this kid is too young to know the meaning of death and he didn't want to explain it to him.

"Go to Katarina then "Isiah tried to make him go away, while continuing to walk, but the kid followed him for a long time.

Isiah thought that if he walked for a long time, this kid would get tired and stop following him but the kid kept on walking for more than Isiah anticipated.

Isiah was unable to hurt him or even say no to him, he didn't want to take away his innocence while he clearly has been through a lot.

After three hours of walking, Isiah couldn't even lift his body and walk, he just fell on the ground very tired while exhaling heavily.

He closed his eyes to rest for a bit, and that's when he heard little footsteps approaching him.

The kid was standing there still smiling when he said :"My name is Ciel.."
