First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse-Chapter 29 A Visit

A low knock on the door announced Adelita's presence to Isiah who was sitting next to the window enjoying the heat of sunlight upon his skin. He used to hate that feeling whenever he had to go hunting with Johnathan, he hated the sweat and the body smell after that too.

He was born and raised rich and his life here was the complete opposite of his previous life, but the consequences of both lives were the same for him.

Both lives consumed him and drained every single will he had.

Adelita was wearing a blue dress, decorated with a lot of roses on the edges of it, she was a pretty woman indeed yet stupid to him.

She chose to teach in the first region just to hold on to something so minuscule and worthless.

To Isiah everything here was worthless, specially people …he hated them .

" I see that you like sitting there, just open the window to have a better experience….The weather is great outside "Adelita said with a smile on her face.

" Just tell me that you spoke to your friend about my condition".

" He is not living in this village anymore, he moved to district two..I have to go and pay him a visit".

" When are you going to do that! it has been 3 weeks since the incident and you are not doing much effort to contact him"Isiah said as calmly as he could.

" You should be patient"

" I am …believe me …i am "He sighed after that .

Adelita wanted to change the conversation to cheer him up so she said:" Do you want me to contact your parents and update them about your state?".

" No …they left and i don't want to meet them again, of course, we didn't talk about them all this time but don't cross the line and call for their help..they are starting over..away from me …and away from Lucas "Isiah spoke firmly to her.

" I just thought I could help with this ".

"You can't …just focus on fixing me here so that I can leave ".

Miss Adelita got permission from the institution the morning after that conversation, and that's why she headed immediately to district two, but before that, she made sure that he won't need anything in her absence.

Just hours had passed since she left and he already felt so lonely without her, even when they didn't talk that much but her company was agreeable to him.

In the evening Isiah couldn't stay a minute inside the house so he went to the garden and sat there. He had no idea of how that place looked but he liked the fresh air and the scent of plants around him .

The last thing he thought about was having a visit from another person, he heard footsteps approaching the house but he kept being silent and motionless for the time being.

"Hiii"

The moment he heard that cracked voice he knew who the person standing in front of his teacher's house .

Isiah was in the garden sitting in the wooden chair when he heard Richard's voice saying this time:" it's Richard…Are you here all by yourself ?"

He abstained from answering him, but Richard opened the door to the property and entered the garden, he stood next to him looking at him from above with a look full of regret but Isiah couldn't see.

"Why are you here? "Isiah yelled, he was ready to fight with him even in his state.

" I knew that you were under Miss Adelita's protection, I wanted to visit you before this day but you weren't in a state to accept this visit".

"And you think that I would accept this visit …now !""

" I gave you a hard time all these years because I saw that you had the potential to hurt us as your brother did ".Richard jumped to say this when he felt that Isiah was unapproachable.

" Just don't be shameless and ask for forgiveness okay ! you burned my house..because of you .. my parents left..and I am in this state".

" We used to play a lot when we were kids …".

" I told you …don't do this ..don't try to bring useless memories to change my opinion of you …you are still who you are to me ".Isiah grinds his teeth while saying that .

" My mother was furious when she knew about what I did…she is not speaking to me and apparently she lost a friend because of my recklessness".

" Richard …leave ".

" I just want to say that I already told the director about who was responsible for the accident that caused your blindness and they just ignored me , Samuel's father is a very powerful man around here…I couldn't do much ".

" They didn't seek justice too when you burned the house…so don't be a hypocrite and just leave …I can't stand listening to your excuses…just wait for …when I retrieve my sight ..I will come after you both …that would be …justice ".Isiah was very angry .

"I am sorry for what I have done " 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

" Huh…."

" And I am not accepting this apology ". Isiah continued yelling at him .

"I will teach you magic"

Richard said that impulsively, and waited for Isiah's reaction, that moment of silence expended to be minutes of silence.

Isiah wasn't sure of Richard's intentions but deep down he wanted to learn magic so bad that he was thinking about that irrational offer.

"You ? teach me magic!" He tried to keep his inner hope hidden while he said that .

" I know that you want to ..learn magic ..your eyes glittered whenever you saw someone casting a spell ..even a random useless spell was raising your anticipation".

Isiah was surprised by what Richard said, he never thought that he was noticeable to others until Richard said that.

" I still remember the day you stole my magic book and my notes, though I never told anyone about it, you looked very pathetic to the point where I didn't even want you to be punished for it …your urge was bad ..I get it …living in a world full of threats without power is … A slow way to die …if I were you …I would have finished that earlier …"

" You knew that I stole ….!"

Isiah was interrupted by Richard immediately…

" Consider it as a way to show you my good intentions…"

Isiah bowed his head in frustration then said:``I can't learn magic …even if I want to …"
