Mages here only have to focus their powers and set a target for it and BOOM … the damage happens, within every person here the divine power is considerably high and it is the reason that people in the old globe are able to use magic.
But that power isn't distributed fairly some have a lot and some do not.
Isiah was standing there struggling to breathe while he was feeling that someone was strangling him with his hands.
He avoided fights sometimes for this reason because he knew that he won't survive that.
While Isiah was gasping for a small amount of air to enter his lungs, Richard's mother Patricia intervened between them and started to ask her kid to stop what he was doing, his father Arthur also reached out for him to stop him but none of them was able to.
Isiah's eyes turned red and his uncontrollable movement lessened by the second. All he thought about was that if he had to live another life from now on he would be the strongest man alive.
Even if that meant that he had to be the loneliest man in this world.
He closed his eyes, his arms fell right there, and the movement stopped.
After he was gone, Ethyl started to blame herself for being a bitch, she basically sent him to his death unarmed and she kind of regretted it later, and that's why she followed him even when the most thing she wanted to do was to sleep .
She made a locator spell, something she usually uses to follow some rare animals around, and started to follow the yellow flame that leads to his place .
It was an easy thing for her, yet the flame started to fade, it was not a normal thing to happen because that only meant that the creature was about to be drained of his divine energy, in other words dying.
She ran as fast as she could, she didn't even want that to happen, there was an unfinished business between them and that's why Ethyl needed to hurry before something bad might happen.
When she approached the closest neighbor to his house, she knew exactly that she would find him there, and there he was about to die of his neighbor's magic. For original chapters go to novel_fіre.net
Richard was strangling him, he was not conscious this time and that's why she focused on Richard and threw him away to interrupt the strangling act that he had been doing.
Isiah fell to the ground unconscious so she ran towards him and used the air element to form a circle full of runes and hit the place of his hurt by it .
It took him a while to wake up again and when he did, he just started coughing while touching the place of his heart.
Patricia and Arthur were in the middle of the scene, Richard was laying on the ground because of the impact and Isiah was still sitting there trying to regulate his breathing.
Ethyl walked slowly towards Arthur and said with an intimidating smile on her face:" Well well well …What do we have here! I think we met last night, I remember you clearly because you were the one who executed that boy's order".
Isiah didn't need more explanation to realize that the one who gave the order was Samuel .
Patricia said when she heard what Ethyl said:" I don't understand what's happening here but trust me I will make him pay for everything just leave now and take Isiah with you, things are already messed up …I don't want you to cause more trouble girl ".
" Probably I would have done the same thing he did, I mean burning Duncan's house, they deserve it don't they, for people who brought hell into our world they are very shameless to act normal…right ? ."
Isiah was troubled, here she was standing there defending him when Richard tried to end his life, yet she was supporting him for burning his house when they were stuck in it .
" Right?…but …don't act like a coward, if you want to harm someone look him in the eyes then do it, and make sure while doing that that your opponent has the power to defend himself ".
Richard was stunned by her icy words and the sharp look in her eyes, he was afraid of her for a second, her abilities were unknown to him however he knew that he should stay away from her.
Isiah stood on his feet after what she said and walked toward Richard with a deadly look in his eyes, reaching the life limit was not enough for him.
He looked at Richard from above then jumped over his body and punched him again, Richard didn't hold back even with the threatening vibes that Ethyl gave him.
The physical fight didn't finish until Ethyl threw both of them into different directions with a wave of her hands.
The impact of their bodies on the ground was very strong and that's why both of them stayed on the ground for a while.
" These bastards are just like a mouse and cat, I want to strangle both of them, just to see how much time they would have stayed calm," Ethyl said while looking into Patricia's eyes.
Minutes passed after that hard impact, Isiah sat there and faced Ethyl and said:"What are you doing ? Why did you follow me ? I thought that you wanted me dead anyway ?Why are you saving me from him ?..well…you are saving me from him ? Right ? ".
Ethyl laughed when she saw how much Isiah was a pain in the ass with his attitude, then said:" there's something that you need to do before you die ".
" The system ..this ascending system in the sky ..I hate it …your brother hated it .."
" And that's why we need to do something about it, Isiah Duncan ".
When she said those words the first thing that Isiah did was to look around to make sure if they heard her, that's treason..
" Don't worry, I am not even speaking…it is all in your mind"..
Isiah started to look around again to make sure that what she said was right.
Richard was still laying on the ground and her parents were around him to check on him.
"I told you I am about to ascend and ..I am one of the best mages on Delwias island…how come I have to prove myself to the ugly sheep of Duncan's family? '' ` .
