68 CHAOS (3)

Knox appeared before Gael’s eyes, but when he heard what he said, his attention shifted toward the two people, who were running toward the helicopter.

Gael had asked them to leave and Knox knew the girl was Lise, his new bride. So, why did he tell another man to take his wife? And why did Gael look unwell? It was not like him to look like that.

“Did you push Blue from the building?” Knox asked Gael. His voice was cold as he turned around to focus on Gael instead, letting the two people go.

From the corner of his eyes, Gael could see Sol helping Lise to get into the helicopter and then jogging to the seat beside her.

“Do you think I will push her? Knowing Chaos will kill me?” Gael fixed his eyes on Knox, as he breathed out painfully. F*ck! The poison was affecting him greatly.

From afar, the sound from rotor blades of the helicopter pierced the silent night.

Knox narrowed his eyes, he ignored the noise. “If it’s not you, then who pushed her?” but then, he realized something...

Gael wouldn’t let another man take his woman because he was afraid what Chaos would do to this place once he unleashed his wrath, but because he was afraid what Chaos would do to the woman for what she had done.

“It’s her, right?” Knox’s voice was so cold, as he turned his back and faced the helicopter that started to leave the roof. “She pushed her from the building.” It was not a question, but a statement and this was the thing that Gael was afraid of.

.....

With hard eyes, he watched Knox walk closer toward the helicopter, with his arms spread toward the night sky.

“NO! NO! DON’T DO THAT!” Gael roared in fear for what Knox would do. He knew what he was capable of. There was no doubt about it.

Gael ignored the pain that almost killed him and rushed toward Knox when dark smoke appeared at the tips of his fingers, coiling around his body and waiting for his instruction to destroy his target.

Gael had seen Knox do something like this before and he knew no one would live out of it and he wouldn’t be able to do anything to help her.

He was not Chaos, who could help you when you were on the brink of death, nor was he Knox, who held as much power as Chaos did.

Therefore, before everything was too late, Gael threw himself at Knox to stop his attack.

“I SAID NO!” Gael grunted when his body collided with Knox and the dark smoke almost killed him because he attacked its master, it choked him and cut off his air. “Knox...” he called him with difficulty.

Knox glanced at Gael, his expression was unreadable when he stared at him.

On any normal day, Gael would be able to overcome such a state easily, but the fact that he was struggling, let Knox know that something had happened to him.

And that was the time when they felt it, the building shook violently and the wind became harsher than before, as the clear sky turned gloomy all of a sudden as thunder split the night.

“What the hell...” Gael gasped for air when Knox let him go, but their situation didn’t seem like he could be able to breath in relief yet.

“Yes, it’s hell... it will soon be hell...” Knox mumbled. “This is not good.” He then rushed toward the edge of the building and looked down, where Chaos was holding the white beast, trying to revive her.

However, Gael and Knox knew very well that there was nothing Chaos could do within his power to bring her back.

She had died and he couldn’t revive someone from their death.

“What have you done?” He threw a dagger look at Gael. “He will bring chaos upon this realm.” He looked up and sure enough, rain started pouring down the earth, a heavy one at that.

Meanwhile, Gael couldn’t find a single word to defend himself, because he knew what would come next. This realm would be in chaos.

But in the dark sky, he could see the helicopter disappear, as it flew away. At least, this brought a comfort to Gael. They would survive, as long as they fled away from here, she would live.

Knox dropped to his knees when he tried to attack that flying machine, he knew he could make a shot at it, but all of a sudden unbearable pain coursed through his being.

This pain was so raw and excruciating. He had never felt agony like this before, even when he was supposed to die.

What was happening? How could he feel so much pain?

Knox looked down again and watched in horror when the ground split and swallowed everything above it, including the building that they were in.

This building didn’t stop shaking and now the building framework cracked at thousands of places as the earth swallowed it.

“Look at what you have done!?” Knox roared at Gael, but then he scrambled to him before that man fell off the collapsing building.

Knox gritted his teeth and snatched his collar. They wouldn’t survive this fall and more importantly, he wouldn’t be able to endure such pain for a long time.

He needed to get out of here before everything fell apart and think of another way to reach Chaos, to make him stop this craziness.

“We need to go,” he groaned.

“Chaos did this,” Gael stated lightly. He was having a difficult time breathing and now, he couldn’t even move a finger.

“What the hell happened to you?” Knox gritted his teeth when he held his ground, as the building sloped to the left very sharply.

“Poison,” Gael answered simply.

“Who did that to you?” But then he groaned in annoyance. “That f*cking woman, right?” he cursed under his breath, as he slung his arm over Gael’s shoulder and then disappeared from there.
