Chapter 234 Investigation

The next day, Ciel woke up too early, he woke up at sunrise, and when he did he saw Isiah walking away again, he headed towards him running trying to stop him and all that Isiah did that time was say :" Go away " without even talking to him …

" Leaving again, Isiah? " He said calmly .

" Are you okay today ? " Isiah asked .

" Yes, after I slept all that fatigue and dizziness disappeared, tell me where are you going Isiah ?"

Isiah continued to walk and then said:" I need you to stay here until I have a clear idea about this place, okay !"

Isiah was not giving him any choice but he had to do it that way so that Ciel accept that he have a saying in the matter.

Ciel nodded his head then said to Isiah:" Okay, don't go for too long"

Isiah was surprised by the fact that Ciel accepted what he told him , however, Ciel knew that Isiah was going to  come back again, he already did that before, he did it several times and therefore he believed that he was going to be back .

" See you later," Isiah said to him then started to walk away again while checking if his snake was awake or not .

The only thing that seemed reasonable to do was to check on his  people who leveled up here, he didn't know anything about the laws or the language so he stayed away with a goal in mind to find the people who leveled up .

Eiajr woke hours later, she was very dizzy but her state improved from last night.

Isiah asked her to focus on the mission, yet all she did for the whole day was  rest her head on his shoulders.

Isiah didn't know where to find those people, and when he thought more about all that people told him an idea started to form, inside those dark corridors he might have a good chance to find them .

" Well, our destination is inside those dark corridors, I need to find those people," Isiah said trying to inform Eijar of his goal.

But all she said to him:" Is there anyone that you are looking for, a family member? A friend ? "

Isiah smiled sarcastically then said to her with a cold voice:" I killed my parents, and my only brother is either dead or alive, I don't know, and I don't have any friends"

Isiah was talking honestly to Eijar yet he was trying to meet some people that he knew back in his days in Delwias island, he wanted to see what happened to them, miss Adelita, Ethyl, and Jivan .

All of them leveled up when the evacuation happened and he wanted to know what happened to them .

Isiah headed towards those dark corridors and started to walk there slowly, there were a lot of people thrown there, they were either dead, sick , or disabled completely.

The smell was terrible and Isiah knew that those were rotten bodies decomposing there while no one was doing anything about it .

Isiah started to use his enhanced senses to check on the state of their divine energy and what he discovered was the most choking thin the ever seen .

" Is this real? "

" What are you talking about ? " Eijar asked

" They have no divine energy, I thought maybe it is just one or two but let me tell you that every single one of them is drained of divine energy, and that is why they are about to die "

Isiah was completely shocked by this new realization.

" Drained? I don't understand these people have to be stronger than people in Delwias Island, either those who leveled up from there or those who were born here, they all have a certain level of divine energy that exceeds the energy from Delwias Island" Eijar replied .

Isiah looked at her briefly then said:" I know that, the problem is these people are thrown here, it is not like I care about them but this…this means that someone put them into this state, it feels like they have been used "

Isiah walked towards one of those people and pulled him by his neck then said:" who are you ? And who did this to you "

the man didn't answer Isiah's question, instead, he kept mumbling and whispering words that were not clear while gasping for air .

" This man is about to die, it is the same as everyone here, I can't get any information from him but I think, what's behind this is a huge story "

Isiah pushed the man away until he fell on the ground and then continued to walk inside that horrible area, it felt nothing like the scenery he was in yesterday as he was walking inside that city.

"Whoever is responsible for this is strong, to kill all these mages this way is very brave and can only admire such an act " Isiah said with a smile on his face .

The strategy here didn't require any fights probably, they only drained those people and threw them here to die .

" Master, this place looks like nothing that I am familiar with, " Eijar said while she kept her eyes wandering around .

Isiah knew that she was not familiar with this city because it was civilized and Eijar never knew about civilization while he lived on earth and knew a lot of things .

He looked at her while she was wandering her eyes around them, and he forced her to stop by fixing her head with his fingers.

" You didn't miss a lot, civilization is the worse thing that mankind did to themselves"

" civilization? " she asked .

"All these things that appeared to you as extraordinary in this place "

Eiajr looked at him this time and then said with a smile on her face:" These buildings, these places, these clothes, everything is different from what I know, that is why I feel surprised and confused but you, you don't seem to be surprised master, it feels like you have seen things like this before "

It was the first time that Isiah appeared to be knowing more than his snake , it was the first time that she looked at him cluless about what was happening around her yet he didn't want to tell her about his past .

His past was sacred to him, he wanted to erase it of course, and of course he didn't want to share it with anyone .

Isiah paid attention to the wall in front of him there was a lot of paper hanging in there .

The papers had a drawing of a man that appeared to be some kind of like royalty because of his clothes.

Isiah looked at the picture carefully and then pointed at it to show it to Eijar, however, Eijar was still looking at him so he said:" This man, his drawings are everywhere, I think he is involved in this, it doesn't feel like he needs punishment or anything, his pictures only shows how powerful he is around " .

" Like a king or something? " Eijar asked .

" No, it doesn't feel like that, they wouldn't hang the king's pictures like this, it is something else I think " Isiah said to eijar then he walked to the wall and took that picture and put it in his pocket.

Then he wanted to go to the bright side of that city, isiah felt terrible since he got there, the smell, the energy , and those dead body, it was a combination of the most terrible things and all he wanted was to leave that place.

" ah that place feels like a dumpster" Eijar said when they went outside of those dark corridors, Isiah looked at her for a long time when he heard that then said :" My stupid…stupid snake , I tink you are smarter than I thought "

" recognition, finally, but still you are saying that I am stupid " Eijar said to him with a smile on her face.

" The way they said were using the people of Delwias Island is like this, don't you get it , it is normal to find a person drained of divine energy, this is not a normal process and these people are doing what is beyond normal.

They are using them as a source of divine energy, these people are those who leveled up, they are not even working as servers , they are working as a fuel , a fuel to something" when Isiah realized that this was the only explanation for what they found he felt the weight of knowledge, these people are sacrificing these people for energy .

" This is …terrible, these people leveled up while thinking that they went to heaven, and here they are , drained and used, and soon to be dead, yet I don't understand, something is off…the teachers and those who work in Delwias Island, they were perfectly fine " eijar questioned .

" No , I think , I think I get it now, those fuck***ing teachers are selling the dream, nothing more, they are more like an image to that place , they are the worse part of all that happened "
