Chapter 198 Disease

At some point, there were two major theories about the future in Delwias Island, the first was about the natural disaster that was meant to happen to finish the entire existence left out here just like the other districts .

The second one was about to keep living here peacefully like they were before, the people who believed in this were the most naive and stupid people of them all.

They just took away their gardes and they started to enjoy the little time that was left for them there.

A few even started to plan for the future, they started to believe that there was no end to life here and that chaos was only their salvation and they needed it in the most critical time .

Chaos assembly was the worst group of individuals that lived on Delwias Island. People here don't believe in any order, they loved the chaos they created and they didn't mind continuing to live like that .

They enjoyed the most despicable things in this place, their hearts were empty and their minds were still full of a lot of emotions that revenge didn't solve .

They get to enjoy the whole region for themselves until some weird thing starts to happen after a month of the triple full moons.

People started to feel sick in an unexplainable way, at first only a few kids and old people were sick then the sickness touched most of them so they started to stay in the houses they built just to avoid contact with others.

They didn't even recognize whether it was a contagious disease or not, due to all of them living together making the detection of the new sick people and even isolating them very easy .

The first ones died after 2 weeks of suffering from this new sickness .

Their symptoms were clear, pain in most of their muscles, headaches, and fever, plus there were a lot of signs that differed from one another .

However, fever was the worst part of it all, even the strongest started to feel weakness in their bodies as if they were dying .

they couldn't heal with healing magic even when most of them Were practicing it for years .

Xavier kept thinking about everything that happened to his people with a lot of curiosity. He didn't care about them but he was concerned about himself to the point where he didn't contact any of the sick people since they had their first death.

" If we get to know the origin of this sickness we could know how to handle it, don't you think? '' Xavier said .

On this day, he gathered all the people who mastered the healing magic just like he kept doing for the past week to give him daily reports about the cases .

One of them said to him: " The origin ? "

Another female mage said while looking at all the mages in front of her with a sad look: "Now, the only thing we could do , is to ease their pain and reduce their fever for a bit, but that is only to make them last longer, we are just doing it wrong, we should prevent the disease from evading every house in this place"

" So, you say that easing their pain in that way is a waste of magic, you say that once the person is sick he is doomed ? " Xavier asked

" Yes, there is nothing we can do once they are sick, they will die eventually, " She replied to him with the same frustration .

" You say it is spreading ? " He asked again .

" I am not sure, I am just saying it hypothetically "

" Leader Xavier we had a lot of deaths among us, if we don't act as soon as possible we are going to lose all of us " An old mage said to him

They were all gathering in his new house that they built for him once they became the owner of this place. His house was only made of wood and it had only one big room that they used as the center of their meetings .

" Most people last only two weeks after the appearance of the symptoms " The female mage said to Xavier .

" What do you suggest ? " Xavier asked .

" Isolation won't do, they will keep feeling pain until they die and no one is willing to serve all of them in that period, the healing mages are so valuable and we can't risk losing them at this point leader Xavier, we lost a lot of them "

Xavier knew what she wanted to say just by the look in her eyes, he switched his sight to look at the other mages that were in the room, they were a total of 50 healing mage, and just thinking of losing them was going to give him nightmares .

It was not because he cared about them but he only was thinking of himself if he needed them in the future.

Xavier stood then said with eyes filled with determination :" Any person who shows any of the famous symptoms should be isolated and put to rest"

" Put at rest ? " Someone asked

" I mean , we should kill them before their cases worsen and before they spread the disease to another person " Xavier answered with a calm voice .

When he said those words the reaction to his words was mixed , half of those mages liked the idea and encouraged him to do it , and some of them absolutely hated it and asked him to find another solution .

It was the first time that he had a controversial solution and he had to act in a way that is very firm to control those chaotic persons that he created .

He sighed before looking at them with a cold look, he was very tired, his body was exhausted from the huge dilemma he was in, and the fear of sickness and his hopeless weak emotions gave a constant irritation that messed with his body and eventually his judgment too .

" These people are our people, and so do you, they are sick and if we keep them we could you lose a lot of you too, this is my final decision, it is either you accept it or die because you are dangerous and you are risking our safety " Xavier said to them with a deadly look in his eyes .
