"IF YOU WANT TO LEVEL UP, YOU HAVE TO LEVEL DOWN "
A scary voice kept saying this expression for more than he can remember, the moment Isiah opened his eyes he felt so much pain on his body, the pain subsided at times, only to flare up again and with seemingly increased intensity .
Isiah felt his head heavy, he was thirsty, tired, drained from energy .Something must have happened and that's why he was exhausted even trying to open his eyes .
"IF YOU WANT TO LEVEL UP.YOU MAST LEVEL DOWN"
ƥαṇdαηθνε| The voice kept increasing its intensity, he started to fear it because somehow he was now able to focus on the voice, it was a bass low husky voice however it had a scary tone in it.
Isiah forgot totally what led him to be here, he was in a state where only his present mattered more, not the past or future, only the present.
"YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN,YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN "
The scary voice repeated.
That pushed Isiah to open his eyes, then he sat there and started wondering with his eyes, at first he checked on his body to see if he was injured, then touched the ground underneath him with his palm, and after all of that he looked around him only to be shocked with the scenery .
Everything around him appeared to be burning .There was nothing around, just a complete void with flames everywhere.
He was the only one there, but something inside kept telling him to be cautious.
"YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN, YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN "
This time the voice kept saying only that expression. Isiah was frightened, the voice was loud and he felt like it was speaking to his mind, there was no sound around, even when this place was empty there was no echo either.
When Isiah realized that, he stood there motionless waiting for it to speak again .
"YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN "
dang !
The voice was speaking inside of his head, that revelation was thrilling, but he didn't know what to do with such information .
"What do you mean by leveling down ?" Isiah asked.
"AS ABOVE SO BELOW" The voice finally said something different.
"What does that even mean?"
"YOU NEED TO LEVEL DOWN !"
Isiah was confused by this conversation, because he didn't understand what the scary voice was saying to him .
At first he thought that it was very disturbing to have a conversation with someone that he wasn't able to see. But eventually he just kept on asking questions to at least know what to do .
It kept saying that expressions, leveling down meant one thing to Isiah, and he didn't even want to think about it .
'Leveling down !'Isiah thought.
Isiah recalled all that happened to him now, he remembered the fact that he was stabbed three times, that he was dying just seconds ago, he remembered the state of his body, and he remembered that he finally used magic and was able to defend himself like he should have years from now .
' This voice is asking me to be a mage that levels down by the core of this place, realistically speaking i died, i think i died, but instead of going to oblivion like the first time, i went to the world beyond? Is that it ? i guess so …if i wasn't mistaken, this place is the world beyond, where all the sinful souls, and the hell creatures live' .
'This voice was asking me to be a part of this mess…'
Isiah was not completely sure about what was happening to him, however if this was the case then there was no reason for him to accept that, but as long as he waited he was feeling pain in his whole body…'
This place was absorbing his divine energy even though he had just a small amount .
"I want to leave this place, I really want to level up not down, I want to stay in my place and live a normal life ".
Isiah remembered his last thoughts before dying, he was asking for power like a crazy person, he wanted someone to give him power regardless of the consequences.
Basically he was asking to be here .
"THAT IS NOT AN OPTION".The voice answered him.
" Why am I here !"
"YOU DIED. YOU WERE SUMMONED TO THIS PLACE FOR A REASON."
" A reason? "
" YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW !"
Isiah was very surprised by what the voice said, the voice didn't want to tell him the reason but he tried to figure out just one reason and instead he failed .
His human way of thinking made him think that he was here because he sinned, it was an idea from his past life, like all sinners have to be punished in hell.
He tried to remember the sins he committed but he didn't recall any …he thought about killing Rivok, but even then he thought of it as self defense, it was a justified killing .
Isiah yelled :" i haven't committed any sin "
the voice repeated with the same tone :" YOU HAVE TO LEVEL DOWN"
For some reason Isiah knew that there was no benefit in arguing, so he just played along with the voice and said:" "What should I do ?"
"LEVEL DOWN "
"I don't know how "
The pain Isiah now was unbearable, it surpassed his ability to tolerate it. He sat after that then looked for a second time around him. He was confused, in pain, and mostly uncertain if this was what he wanted by his words in his last moments.
He wanted to be powerful to level up but he ended up being in this mysterious place discussing with someone not visible to him about leveling down.
' leveling down! Does this place have levels too ? I am not sure, i just want to go back and have powers to destroy whatever comes in my way to level up
'
"YOU ARE A PART OF THIS PLACE NOW, YOU DON'T BELONG TO THAT PLACE, YOU BELONG HERE , YOUR BODY IS COMPATIBLE TO THIS PLACE"
" I want to go back, I know i can do a lot by my powers now"
" ONCE YOU ACCEPT BEING HERE SETH JOHNSON YOU WILL HAVE THE CHANCE TO LIVE"
" How ? h…h…how do you know my name ? " Isiah was stunned by hearing someone calling him by his past name.
" DO YOU WANT IT OR NOT ? "
