Chapter 202 - RED EYES

Knox looked at Chaos, who has still not yet gained his consciousness after Zuri left two hours ago.

He didn't know where that girl went, but he hoped she was responsible enough to catch a few shattered souls that could return Chaos's strength, as Knox was having a hard time to heal as well when he was in his current state.

After all, this was her fault to depreciate Chaos's condition to hit a bottom low like this.

Knox closed his eyes, as he could feel his head was aching. He was not sure how many shattered souls that they needed to get Chaos to his usual self. If it took him eight full years to reach this condition after what was happening, Knox thought it would need an immense effort to return him back to normal.

However, when Knox was about to close his eyes, he felt a movement, it was so fast, as if everything was so blur when he felt his fingers wrapped around his neck and his body was thrown out of the room.

Chaos threw Knox so hard, until it created hole on the wall and he ended in the opened area.

Knox was startled, he was surprised by what was happening right now, but before he could gasp for breath or even stood up to defense himself against this assault, Chaos had come to him and then stomped his feet against his chest, step on him to the ground, before he gave him a good punch on his face.

What the hell!?

Knox growled loudly and tried to free himself from his brutal attack and then by some miracle he managed to do that and rolled his body away from him, put a good distance between them.

Knox immediately pushed himself to stand at the ready for another attack, ignoring the pain that seared through his body. He scoffed at this fact. He wouldn't be in so much pain like this if he was in his normal condition, but then, if he were human, he would have died in the first attack before.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS, CHAOS?!" Knox roared angrily, he spatted blood to the ground and hated the color of it.

In front of him, Chaos was standing tall, he didn't look sick at all. His strength to throw Knox through the wall was an enough proof for that.

But, how could he regain that kind of strength when he was so sick and fell unconscious a moment ago? Knox wouldn't believe it if it was not himself that had tasted his power first hand.

However, Chaos didn't seem to mind him, he turned his body around and then extended his left arm to the manor and a loud of explotion could be heard, rang through the night air.

The hole on the wall because he threw Knox earlier had gone, but also along with the bedroom where he had occupied.

Once the dust and dirt settled, Knox could see that Chaos had blasted the whole bedroom, through the corridor behind it and then ruined the next room opposite it.

At this sight, Knox baffled. He didn't know how to react, while Chaos stared at his hand, as if this was the first time he saw it. He tilted his head, looked confused.

But his eyes, the color of his eyes had changed. They were no longer dark like charcoal, but red like blood…

How could that be possible.

Chaos had always had dark blue eyes color, but then it changed into black when he was revived and now it was red. This was the first time for Knox to witness this.

But, the most concerning part was the fact that Chaos didn't seem like he realized what he was doing, or what he had done, or even recognized Knox.

Chaos looked at Knox, said nothing, but the way he stared at him was something that made him unsettle.

However, at time like this, because of the loud commotion and explosion, a few people came to them with July and Sebastian followed behind.

"DON'T COME CLOSER! STAY BACK!" Knox roared, he placed himself between July, and the other men that came with her, and Chaos.

"What happened?" July asked him, but she stopped coming closer when she saw how serious the situation was.

July was standing behind Sebastian, while around ten men were surrounded them with weapon at the ready to be aimed to Chaos.

"Put down your weapon," Knox growled to them. Those messy weapon wouldn't be able to stop this creature.

Knox was not even sure what kind of creature before him right now.

Following what Knox had ordered, they put the gun back in and took a step back. They wouldn't want to provoke the enemy that they couldn't defeat.

After ensuring that those people had been away from him, especially when July was in the safe place, Knox walked toward Chaos. He looked at him right in the eyes, though those eyes were unsettling, it gave a weird sensation for him.

"Chaos…" Knox called him carefully, every step that he took was full with calculation. He wouldn't want to put his guard down at time like this when he had to face this abomination. "Are you listening?"

However, Chaos narrowed his eyes and then glanced at the bunch of people behind Knox, but shifted back to him again.

"Are you okay?" Knox kept talking to him, to get his attention, but what Chaos did was staring around, taking everything, as if this was his first time to see all of this. "Something bothering you?"

Knox tried to look calm as much as possible, as he didn't want to aggravate him.

"Where is this?" Chaos asked, his voice was so hoarse, the sound of it was not familiar to Knox.

He had heard his voice countless time in the past and then recently, but never sounded like this, as if Chaos had changed into completely different person.
