Chapter 185 Leveling-Down
When Eijar told Isiah that the triple full moons had just ended , he removed the spear from that hellhound and jumped towards the nearest tree despite all the injuries in his body.
In no time, the hellhound just jumped toward the gate, because of the pressure of that attraction field he didn't even notice that Isiah was not on his neck or that he removed his spear from him.
The hellhound jumped just to end that resistance and that attraction because it was too much for him .
He howled as if he was screaming then disappeared totally.
Isiah at that moment tried to hold on to a branch of the tree that he jumped into, he was very tired yet he did because he didn't want to end up meeting the hellhound first thing when he get there .
It would be just terrible for him and in his state .
After the triple full moons ended, the attraction was severe, it started to to harm Isiah's body especially his burned hand so he looked at Eijar then said:" It is time "
He left the branch in a second and the next thing that happened was him getting into that gate so fast .
" Aaaagggggggghhhhhhhhhhh"
Isiah screamed because the moment he entered the gate, he just started to feel like his body was going through things that he never experienced.
The pain was immeasurable, the pressure was very high, and the worst part about all of that was the fact that he knew that whatever was happening was awfully affecting his body.
Eijar was attaching her body into his neck like she was going to suffocate him.
That pain lasted for a short amount of time, Isiah was not capable of even staying awake after that and that is why he lost consciousness in the middle of that leveling down .
He didn't need any confirmation from others that he finally succeeded in doing that .
The voice asked him to level down to gain more power and he did, when all those strong dark creatures died in that humiliating way he was the one who survived and that was an achievement .
When Isiah opened his eyes again, all that pain that he felt during the process disappeared, he opened his eyes very fast as if he was anticipating someone to attack him, he sat immediately and started to look around him.
Eijar was thrown there next to him, she was not even close to his neck and he didn't know whether she made it or not, so he took her in his hand and started to check her whole body .
She was not injured and her body was intact yet she was not awake .
Isiah put her on his lap and then started to look around, it was a new place and if things were correct it was a new layer of the world beyond that is unlocked in front of him.
The funny part was that he was not even awake in a good place, there were no buildings, no dark creatures, no light, and no sign of living .
" Is it a fuc***ing desert ? "
Isiah didn't want to think of this possibility because if this was the case then he was very far from any type of civilization .
The dark sand was everywhere and it was not hot like earth, it was just a lot of dark sand around him, no plants around, no water , and no heat to begin with .
The scene in front of him was an endless sand field, a lot of black wavy dunes around him.
Isiah thought that maybe the sand is similar to the one on earth and the impact of darkness all around is making it appear black, so he tested that theory and enlightened the place around him only to confirm that he was wrong
Isiah couldn't even understand how they were able to see around here when there is nothing emitting light .
He had so many theories about this and he ended up thinking that maybe something in his eyes changed that made him capable of seeing in the dark .
At that moment Isiah remembered the injuries he had in his feet and his hand so he looked immediately at his body only to be stunned by the discovery .
" What the f****ck ! What happened to me ? Sh****t! And I only saw this right now ? "
Isiah was shouting very loudly as he discovered that the parts of his body that were injured turned completely to be black. It felt like those parts of his body got detached and replaced by this new arm and feet .
It was very weird and unexplainable, Isiah felt like he got healed during that process but in a very complicated way .
Isiah realized that a lot of things has changed but he couldn't put his finger on it .
Now that he got his consciousness back and started to look around him he realized that the atmosphere has changed too and that was very expected now that he was in the second layer of the world beyond .
' I wonder where that hellhound is, he is not anywhere around this place, and I don't think that if he was thrown here he would have disappeared this fast, what happened to him ? '
At that moment Isiah stood very slowly because he thought that it might hurt him but it didn't, the new feet were very similar to his, and to him, there was no difference .
Isiah made sure not to let Eijar slip and fall so he held her tightly in his shirt and then started to look all around him .
" I really don't care if was stuck in the middle of the desert, the most important thing is that I managed to survive when the strongest dark creature died pathetically, I am progressing, this is ….I am gaining more powers, I am not that weak like I used to be "
Isiah was very proud of himself to the point where this situation didn't bother him at all .
Isiah looked all around him with a proud look on his face, it was not what he was waiting for but the satisfaction of getting there made him very relaxed.
He looked at Eijar with a cold look this time then said:" She is annoying all the time, and here she is just motionless"
Isiah didn't even know how to make sure that she was okay, he approached her with his ears just to hear if she was moving or something but he didn't get anything.
He sat on the ground then grabbed the grimoire and started to look for something that might help him wake her up .
After a few attempts of doing that he just realized that she was not going to wake up
He suspected that she might be dead but then he remembered what she said to him in Summit .
' If she is dead then I would have been dead too, which is not the case, so I just have to find a way to wake her up before anything bad might happen, we are still new to this place , and we don't know whether it is safe for us or not '
Isiah made his right arm bleed, he didn't want to use the other black arm because he was not sure about what was in there.
Isiah just made a drip of his blood fall on top of the grimoire then he removed his hand after that .
He sighed waiting for the grimoire to open then he started to turn the pages just waiting for something to show up in front of him .
Isiah just read a few pages and then threw the grimoire away because he was not able to find anything that might benefit him .
He then started to look at her body and started to feel her energy, it was very low, he used his enhanced senses to detect her almost fading power and realized that she didn't wake up because of her lack of power .
Isiah couldn't just understand what happened to her and how she lost her power.
She didn't fight like him and she was not injured and yet she was in this state.
' Maybe her body is just too weak, she once mentioned that she was very strong and now she must have been feeling very tired because she was putting in a lot of effort .
Isiah approached his bleeding thumb towards her mouth and turned her face around so that the blood would just enter her mouth .
He hated the fact that his future is related to her and he hated her licking his finger for blood but at this moment he didn't mind giving her some because it was already going to waste.
At first, he didn't get any response from her , she was not even moving, yet a few minutes later Isiah started to feel her moving her tail barely .
He smirked and realized that she was going to wake up if he kept giving her his blood.
" My blood could cure her and give her dark energy !"
