3157 Descent to Madness (Part 1)

As an Abomination, Derek had no muscles that could spasm, but he didn't know that. He fell on the ground only because the impact took him by surprise and he waited for the seizure for a few seconds before realizing nothing was going to happen. _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}

"What the fuck? They have wands instead of guns here. This is definitely not the Earth of the past. If I have traveled through time instead of space, this is some weird future where magic replaced technology." Derek said while watching the darkness of his body eating at the remnants of the spell.

"Interesting. My current form seems to be immune to electricity. Let's see what else it can do."

The Void shot chore magic bullets of all elements against his hand, but they all phased through the Voidfeather armor.

"Dammit!" He used a lightning bolt on himself to confirm his theory. "I may be immune to some elements, but to all of them is out of the question. The only thing I know for sure is that I'm immune to my own magic.

"It's the only explanation for my lightning to behave differently from the carriage guy's. Also, if this is anything like a video game, being immune to one thing means I'm vulnerable to another.

"The questions are: how can there be humans on this planet and, if the guy who summoned me here was so powerful, how come those people didn't recognize me? They just called me a monster." After saying it out loud, a new mystery arose.

"Wait a second. This is just like with the tiger man. I understand what they say but they don't speak English. How is that possible?" Derek thought about chasing the merchants and asking them a few questions, but he decided otherwise.

Without Gravity Magic, every step he made while running left behind a crater and boomed like thunder, making his approach as discreet as an incoming thunderstorm on a clear sky.

"I'd better let them relax and think they've lost me. After all, I just need to follow the road to find them again. Now I'd rather focus on the language barrier."

Derek replayed the conversation with Strider and the quick exchange with the merchants in his mind. He listened to their words and repeated them out loud, remembering their nuances and the differences with their English equivalent.

"Wife." He repeated in Tyris' universal language and the image of a cute woman with long black hair came to his mind.

A strong headache quickly followed, forcing him to hold his head while trying not to faint out of pain. Too many images to count flashed before his eyes where Kamila smiled, held Lith's hand, or kissed him.

Every one of those moments made his non-existent heart tighten, filling him with sadness and longing. When the memories faded, Derek felt a void in his chest only matched by the suffering it caused.

"Kami." He said while finally another of the chained words made sense. "This woman must have seduced the evil overlord before betraying him. She must have stolen one of the missing pieces of my soul."

It was the only plausible explanation Derek could think of since the idea of having friends was preposterous, let alone the thought of opening his heart to someone.

'No, you idiot! It was offered, not taken by force.' The Voidfeather did his best to make the Void associate Kamila's name with the word wife instead of such a ridiculous story, but to no avail. 'Better than nothing, I guess.'
