First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse
Chapter 91 The Safest Place In Delwias IslandThe man was so confused about what Yogev said to him, that Yogev removed any hesitation from his features and then said to him with a bass voice:" I said when we didn't come to an agreement with them, they tried to kill us mercilessly, we were about to die last night, they didn't treat us with mercy and when we realized that they locked us where we were staying outside to face the triple full moon, it was too late, we had a rough night because of them, we are all so disappointed in their actions, that was so cruel and we are all in danger if this continues "
" Stop '' One of the people from district 5 interrupted his speech.
All the eyes converted to him at that moment, so he stepped ahead to be visible to Yogev.
The man was in his thirties, well-built body, black hair with blue eyes, and a dark barbe that was shaved in mutton chops, he was stronger among his people, his name was Felix.
Even though Felix was not a leader among his people, no matter what decision he made everyone followed, not because he asked them, but because they felt safer as he was around.
Yogev looked at Felix with a straight face while he was getting closer to him.
" First of all who gave the authority to make a speech on us"
" The authority? ``Yogev was very surprised by his rude attitude.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" Yes, what you heard, standing there on a big rock to lecture us, by doing that you were already bossing us, which is completely unacceptable.
Second of all, what are your intentions? What do you want by coming here and gathering us like this "
Yogev knew that convincing these people was not going to be easy, however, he didn't expect this kind of attitude.
" I certainly do not want to boss you all, basically I am trying to tell you that we are not going to stand a chance in our districts and that we have to stay here " Yogev explained.
" It is their district, and they helped us a lot since the disasters happened and we should be thankful for them, i know what you are trying to do and i have to tell you that you are not going to convince me with your idea"
A few people from district 5 were looking at Felix with admiration, they had already taken his stand even though they didn't know the consequences or even thought about them.
" You stayed in the borders, you didn't go to the center, i am not trying to hurt the people who helped you"
" But you are trying to hurt the others, i don't want that, and for the sake of your safety you have to remove that idea from your head"
Yogev knew that he messed up the moment this man showed up, he was unable to change his mind because he was too loyal to those who helped him.
" I am not asking for a fight, me either i don't want anyone to get hurt after this, all i want is for the survival of my people, i want them to stay here, we can't go back to district 2"
" You should go back to your district and make sure to rebuild it, that is the only way for your people to live with dignity"
"The worst part is that we don't know if we are going to have another disaster! Can you prove to me that our districts that had been destroyed are safe from another round? "
Yogev tried by that question to plant fear in his people's minds, but what happened was the opposite.
:'' Can you prove to me that district1 is not going to have a natural disaster? I believe that all districts are going to have the same fate" Felix replied.
Yogev stayed silent, for a second he knew that he had logic when he was speaking, all the districts are going to have the same ending.
Yogev felt like he didn't plan right for this speech, he was already busted by this single man and that made him feel devastated.
He kept on thinking of an answer, but he didn't find one and that is why Felix smiled at him because he proved his point.
" I can prove to you that district one is not going to have the same fate as our districts," Heigl said, breaking that awkward silence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" Yeah? How? Felix asked sarcastically.
" You didn't ask us how we survived the night, aren't you curious about that at least," Heigl said to him.
" Okay, i confess, yes i am a bit curious about it"
" For the past month, we stayed next to the king's palace in hope that he might return and give us solutions and answers to what really happened to our district"
"You have been quite useless and stubborn, i know that….you stayed in one place for the whole month, that was completely useless" Felix teased Heigl because he looked so young and vulnerable.
"I am not telling you about this for your sarcasm, i am telling you that staying there helped people from district 1 to track us, and that is how they came up with the idea of trapping us there in an open field so that the monsters could kill us"
Everyone was listening to Heigl now because he grabbed their attention with his confidence in his words.
" There is no place in Delwias Island that is safe from the portals to the world beyond, essentially if you make statistics of the places that have been hit by the triple full moon you will find that they have been hit at least once or twice since Lucas Duncan doomed our world.
But have you ever heard that the king's palace was hit by the triple full moons? Maybe i am young and I don't remember, but do you? For me, the answer is never, and that is how we survived … there is a safe place in the middle of the chaos and it was hidden from us the whole time "
" Did you come up with this conclusion by yourself? Felix asked.
" Going back to your districts is a very dangerous thing, you will risk your people's life, staying here on the other hand will guarantee you life and a chance …"
