Chapter 37: Kill HIM
Chapter 37: Kill HIM
"What are you doing?" Rose said indifferently to Luna who was pointing the staff at Eli.
"Ah...that guy has killed many people, so we have to capture or kill him before he could harm any more innocent people" Luna said while trembling but Alex caught her trembling hands and assured her before standing in front of her.
Alex thought, 'Not anyone can become the Saintess; her sapphire eyes were the only reason she became the Saintess of the entire Dawn Kingdom without any problems. Her eyes are also known as Apollo's Eyes or the Judgement Eyes, which can literally determine whether a person is good or not and has taken innocent lives or not. It only shows the truth, and with an increase in cultivation Rank, its power also increases...
So, he must really...'
With Alex standing in front of Luna, she sighed in relief, and her eyes shined with happiness.
"I think you should silently come with us or else..." Alex said as he reached for his long sword weapon on the hip.
Lilith's expression turned dark as well as Mia's; Zera and Adria just stared at Lilith, as Adria created an invisible barrier around them so that other people don't see them or hear them; Marie had a complicated expression; Rose didn't know which side to take.
With all that, Eli had a puzzled expression, 'What?' that is what he thought when Luna shouted at Alex to kill him.
"Hmm?"
Everyone looked at Eli,
"Can I and my wife leave now? It's getting late" Eli said with a smile, if he stood here anymore, then another one will show up.
"Wife..." Alex finally noticed Eli holding Lilith's hand; Alex turned and asked Luna, "Check Her" as he pointed to Lilith.
Luna then looked at Lilith with shined eyes and shook her as she said, "No, she is innocent".
"Thank You" Alex gently smiled as Luna's face turned little red then Alex turned to look at the veiled girl and said,
"Miss, Could you please stay away from him?" with a gentle smile.
Lilith just frowned at him and didn't say anything.
"sigh..." Alex sighed and thought, 'That girl...I saw her with Adriana...'.
"Wait, are you really going to kill me?" Eli couldn't believe it.
"Yes" Alex said firmly.
'What the..?' Eli was speechless and asked "Why?".
"You don't know who she is?" Alex had a hostile expression.
"Well, she never introduced, so..." Eli motioned his hands like he don't know.
Except for Lilith, Adria, and Mia, everyone stared at Eli with dumbfounded expressions.
"You! Don't act like you don't her. She is the only Saintess in the Dawn Kingdom, Luna Dawn. The whole world wants her" Alex said with a furious expression and added inwardly, 'for her Apollo's Eyes'.
"OH..." Eli had an 'O' expression but inwardly, 'You should have said before that she is a Saintess and....we are having a conversation when are you trying to kill in the middle of fucking road?'.
"Pffttt" Both Lilith and Adria suddenly hid the laughter but no one cared except Zera and Eli.
Seeing Eli's shocked expression, Alex finally realized, 'That fucker didn't know who we are...ah'.
"I guess, you don't know me also?" Alex questioned as he loosened up a little.
"Yes, you didn't even introduce yourself when you are asking me....sigh youngsters these days don't have respect for their elders" Though Eli didn't show it outside when Alex called him 'uncle', he really wanted to punch Alex's face.
Veins popped on Alex's forehead and said, "I am Alexander, The Hero of Dawn Kingdom" with a smug look.
'ssshhhh'
As soon as those words were heard, Eli appeared in front of Alex and stared at him without doing anything, after a second Alex realized Eli standing in front of him but,
"Don't do anything, I am not going to hurt you unless you start" Eli said with an indifferent tone.
Later, Mia's, Luna's, and Marie's eyes widened as they were astonished by Eli's speed, while Rose was blocked by Adria, and Lilith and Zera were just blankly staring at Eli.
Alex just stood there with some sweat on his face, 'I didn't expect him to be this fast...just who is this guy? Another butterfly effect or 'that fucker' causing this...' Alex thought, as Eli scanned him from top to bottom and then Eli mumbled "3rd Form...one element...is enough" As he little backed away from Alex,
"Mr. Alexander, Do you...believe in God?" Eli questioned as he looked into Alex's eyes.
Inwardly, Alex sighed in relief when Eli moved away from him then Alex answered, "Maybe, I do" Alex do not what Eli is up to so he gave a vague answer but,
"Do you know some people called you God? Why is that?" Eli still questioned him curiously.
"....Well yes, I do know some people called me God or Saviour but that doesn't mean I am God, they just think like 'If I am God's Chosen Hero, Then I am also God' That is most of them feel, I guess" Alex said earnestly.
"I see...so you are like just another Human, right?" Eli asked, even though Eli didn't mean it but everyone felt it was sarcastic.
"...Yes" Alex tried to reply calmly.
"Who chose you then?" Eli was still curious.
"Well..." Alex turned to Luna; Luna understood Alex's gaze and said with shuttering, "H-He was c-chosen by our Ancestor, 'The Dawn'"
"..."
"Well then, Thank you for your honest answers" With that Eli turned around, only to see Adria grabbing Rose's hand who was trembling.
"Alex, what are you doing? We canno..." Luna was about to say something but
"Ms. Luna Dawn, right?" Eli interrupted Luna without turning and continued,
"Yes, I killed around 1000 people yesterday...
Is it wrong to kill if someone tried to kill you? and also they all revived so let's leave this fuss".
"...No, You have a right to protect yourself but you definitely killed innocent p-people and c-children, I-I can clearly s-see their r-resentfulness" Luna shuttered as she hear their cries.
Eli suddenly stopped, "Is that so....your eyes must be pretty good...ah" said while pondering. Everyone felt something is wrong but,
"Now what can you see?" Eli suddenly turned around with a sad smile and this time Luna was shocked as her eyes widened,
"How?" that's all she can because she can only see Eli, nothing else.
"Who knows...." Eli said and left with Lilith.
Everyone was dumbfounded except Adria and Mia who looked at Eli's back as he walked away.
