Isiah was not comfortable with having that snake around his wrist, the moment it cleaned his wound from the blood it stopped, and then came back to his other hand and started to play with his arm.
Isiah kept on looking at it with indecisiveness, he didn't want to have any animals around him since that incident with chicks, he never petted animals after that, and growing up in a family that killed animals in its rituals made him avoid animals around him.
" I am not gonna fall for this, don't act cute you stupid snake, i am not going to fall for this trap"
Isiah threw it away because he didn't want any form of attachment on his way to level up, the snake came back and ascended in his leg fast, Isiah was pissed at that moment so he threw it again and it came back again, it felt like it was glued to his body with an invisible link that he was not aware of seeing it "
He threw it again and started to walk before it came back yet this time he felt it as it was climbing his torso and went to his neck and settled there
' What have I done to get something sticky ?'
When Isiah was learning magic from the books in the institution he avoided all spells of summoning animals to use them in fights, he didn't want to tame any animals either, he wanted to stay away from them as much as he could, but this snake showed up from nowhere and became stuck to him without any reasonable cause.
" How come you didn't boil in that hot water ? "
Isiah asked knowing that it can't reply to his question, then he remembered that the snake was moved by dark energy as well
Isiah climbed the hill underneath the bridge to move away from that place, and when reached the top and was able to see everything around him he started to walk slowly beside some crusty trees and planets.
The trees there were variants too like on both earth and the old globe, but due to their crustiness, they all looked the same which made it very hard for him to hide in an open place like that .
" Ah need to do it today, i need that, but i think all the places are crowded today, we are late, and the shows already started "
A goat creature said as it was passing by Isiah who hid next to a tree so that no one could see him
"All the whoredoms are full by now, maybe we should go back " The creature that was accompanying him answered.
" Go back! no !!!fuc*** no, i will do it today , i am sure they will accept one more person" The first one replied very angry and troubled .
The creatures were long gone now and Isiah didn't understand a word of what they said, but just by the look of them he remembered what he saw later that night.
He tried not to think more about it and continued to walk on his way while using those big trees to hide, his tiny body was fit and it was not that tough for him to hide now, the more he walked the more the tree started to become bigger.
Everything there was so giant which helped a lot on his way to move around. Before he was able to even notice he entered a road that was filled with trees on both sides, he looked around in surprise.
' It looks like a forest, but it is not typically a forest, there are trees but it looks so crusty and dead, i will keep moving on the same line until i reach a place that could give me answers, i am not going to wander around randomly and get eventually lost'.
Isiah was not even seeing the need for it when he noticed something coming to his side, he panicked when he saw glowing red eyes in the darkness of that place, and those eyes were staring at him without blinking or changing the direction of their vision, Isiah started to hear a scary creepy growl getting closer to him, he was at that time panicking and questioning his stupidity to even to come in this direction.
That scary sound was coming closer to him, it was very dark but the more it got closer to him it started shining in the dark .
The monster that reached him was an armored human-like, with long gray hair, red glowing eyes, long hands that reached the ground, and a deformed body, its claws looked very sharp, more like a sickle in its form.
The body that looked more like his height when it was far from looked bigger as it came towards him, his face was not shown, but Isiah was able to see a lot of dirty gray bandages falling apart from his face.
The ash was surrounding that creature as if he was coming outside of a crematory .
Isiah started to move back without turning around, he ignored completely the fact that the snake that was around his neck was tightening its body over it making it very difficult for him to breathe.
Isiah noticed what the snake was doing to him so he grabbed it with his injured hand and removed it hardly from there,and kept on holding it in his hand as he was going to run away.
Fire won't kill something dark like that, he knew that from past incidents, what harms a creature that function with divine energy is different from what hurt a creature that runs with dark energy.
' Run away ! shi**** ! where? the more i run away i would find more of these creatures and that would put me in a tough spot …then, i will be surrounded by them and the least that could happen is me being killed mercilessly and i don't want that ' Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel·fiɾe·net
Isiah started to look around as the creature was moving slowly toward him.
' That leaves me with option b , fight…fight …yeah ….so easy to say , but how ? how ? …i think i know how …i know '
Isiah looked at the snake in his hand then looked at the creature that was approaching him then said :"I will never be killed , you fuc***ers"
