First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse-Chapter 17 Act Of Resistance

No sain person would ever wander outside his hideout when this horrifying event happens, only a suicidal, crazy, or stupid person is capable of doing such an act. This girl was a mix of all these three.

His eyes were terrified of what was happening in front of him, this was his first time witnessing the opening of the hell portal and for that reason, he just couldn't contain his reactions, his screams to her didn't stop along the way, his body was unable to move too.

"Do you want me to hide you myself? Isn't that a bit of exaggeration? Don't be so shameless Isiah Ducan because I don't tolerate that…",Ethyl said with a tone full of sarcasm.

Whatever was coming in their direction was so close right now. Isiah leaned with his back on a tree behind him while Ethyl kept looking forward to whatever was coming towards them.

A few minutes passed that tortured him mentally, he then chose to be silent because he knew that he was not able to change her mind.

'Why am I still here! Why am I waiting for this girl! she was going to kill me and now I am waiting for her like a stupid fool ', Isiah started to mumble inside of his head.

Suddenly, a few trees in front of them started to move like something was getting closer to them along the way, a loud howl was heard this time, Isiah's face turned pale when he saw that thing coming out there very slowly.

That creature looked like a dog but a giant one, his height was close to the height of the trees, it was black as coal with glowing dangerous yellowish eyes, and it had very sharp teeth, it smelled like brimstone and there was a wave of fire around it, the trees next to it were already burning because of it.

When this creature reached their place, there were no animals left there and the scent of burning woods and meat was spreading around.

Isiah tried to move away, to run, or at least to hide because if that creature saw him he would die for sure.

Ethyl was still standing in her place facing this creature, her expressions were still the same as she said calmly:" Always the hellhounds are the first creatures to cross that portal…they always did".

' A hellhound !'He thought to himself.

" Only the heat coming off of its body will burn you to death, stay away, probably all the trees on his way were burned, and so did the animals", She added.

He looked at her and felt disgusted with himself, his weakness, his lack of information, his inability to fight, everything was triggering his insecurities.

" Hurry up and hide you stupid shit, I won't protect you if you keep standing there ", This time Ethyl smiled cheerfully and then walked towards the monster with no fear.

The hellhound noticed her immediately and fastly moved towards her. It looked very aggressive and its senses seemed to be enhanced because even though she was too small to be noticed, it just saw her petite body and started to move closer to her fastly.

Their education system never taught them about this night and what was waiting for them outside, maybe it was just a policy so that no one would be too scared to be suicidal and rebellious to the highest regions.

Now Isiah understood why every higher mage from the higher regions just left them blind because if anyone knew about this they would be furious.

It was not like they didn't know about creatures coming off the portals leading to the world beyond, but if they knew that those creatures are this big, this destructive, and aggressive no one would accept the ranking system and they will all either fight or die trying to be free from this place.

Isiah's breathing was difficult, if this is just one creature from the world beyond then they are all doomed when the other creatures pass the portals too.

Everyone on Delwias Island knew that it was getting closer and closer to the world beyond year after another, this region was dragged to that place because of Lucas.

His parents told him that at the beginning of this mess, there was only one portal that opened in the first year.

However, years after that the number of portals opened on such a night is unknown.

"Don't look at its eyes, this creature is demonic ", She yelled at Isiah when she saw his frightened face, " The more you stare at it, the more your chance to die is higher".

Isiah looked at the ground immediately, he heard her laugh.

`She is dangerous….god!", He thought.

Ethyl grabbed a scrotum from her bag, took out a bunch of salt from it and threw it on the ground and started whispering while leaning towards it .

The hellhound was so close to her this time, her skin was very hot, and she felt a lot of pain because that heat was burning her, but she can't move now, not after throwing her last salt on the ground.

It was the only way to fight this creature and running this time was out of the question.

Fighting this demonic creature is not something she was doing for the first time, she fought a lot for the past four years, Ethyl was the only one fighting them in this region. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

It was not that easy, it was difficult at the beginning, and it still is but somehow every time she killed one of those creatures she felt like she was gaining more experience.

The hellhound was the only creature from the world beyond that she killed for the past years, still, it was an accomplishment that no one in this region has ever done in a decade.

It all started when her little brother Serov got lost five years ago during a period like this, she and her family went on the run to look out for him, they spent days searching for him and even at the night the triple full moon happened they just ignored it and kept looking.

That night she realized the truth about this place the hard way, Ethyl discovered her ability to fight and tasted that sweet feeling of resistance. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

Ethyl was the first person that killed a hell creature …and the only one .
