Chapter 220

220 SHE IS MY WORLD

“What occasion made you grace me with your presence, my old friend,” Hades asked Chaos when he saw the abomination had come. His long, black hair draped behind his back, so long it was flowing past his waist.

Chaos looked vindictive when he walked slowly toward the god of the underworld, his eyes were still the color of red.

This place was not exactly a place, since everything was so dark, but with every step that you took, it almost seemed like there were candles that lit up around your feet, lighting it up with a pale glow that would be able to lead you toward your destination.

Even though everything was completely dark here. No one could say whether this was a huge room or simply an open space, since the floor was molded into the darkness as well.

Hades, who was sitting on his throne, which was made of skeletons and a giant green snake that slithered around his legs, immediately stood up when he saw Chaos. He walked over to him and they met in the middle of this strange place.

The wisps of pale glow from underneath their feet collided, brightening up this place slightly, but it was not enough to figure out what kind of place this was.

“What brought you here?” Hades tilted his head. “Do you miss me?” he winked at Chaos and smirked.

However, Chaos didn’t give any response that could satisfy him at all. His expression was devoid of any emotions and he didn’t avert his gaze at all when he spoke curtly. “Give me that soul.”

Hades raised his brows, as if he was confused by his request. “What soul?” he asked in a sickly sweet voice. “Can you be more precise?”

.....

Chaos raised his hand and harsh winds fluttered around them, as fire circled the two creatures. Red flames made this place look brighter and the snake near Hades’ feet hissed viciously.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“You don’t need to be aggressive like this. You know that you don’t have any right to vent out your anger in my place.” Hades frowned, but his left hand stretched out to touch the head of his snake, caressing the green creature to calm down. “You have burned down your realm. Don’t make chaos here as well. This is not your place.”

Chaos said nothing and his expression didn’t change at all. He still had his eyes set on Hades when he made his second move.

This time he raised his hand and made a slicing movement. The way he did that with only one hand looked simple and didn’t seem to mean anything, but in the next second, a man was seen kneeling down in front of him.

The very man that Chaos saw in Zuri’s memory. He didn’t wear any clothes and only had a shabby pair of boxers around his hips. His black hair was disheveled while wounds littered his skin from whatever tortures that he had endured.

“Ah, you mean this soul.” Hades clapped his hand. “You should have told me earlier, you know...”

The man, who was kneeling before Chaos lifted his head. He looked horrible and didn’t look like the man from Zuri’s memories at all. All of the suffering that he had to go through had changed him greatly, until it was almost difficult to recognize him.

Yet, Chaos knew it. It was him and there was no way he would make a mistake.

“I know what he had done to your little white wolf, but I have done my part to torture him, you can relax now,” Hades said lightly, he waved his hand nonchalantly, as if this was not a big thing to fuss about.

However, just like before, Chaos didn’t give a fuck about what he said. The only reason he came to this afterworld was to find this piece of sh*t.

“Who... who are you...?” Emmet stammered when he saw the man, who looked taller and bigger than him. From the way this man glared at him, filled with anger and malice, he immediately knew he was in hot soup. This man wanted to kill him.

But, he had already died. That stupid girl had killed him mercilessly and Emmet didn’t know this man at all. He had never seen or met him before this, if his memory served him right.

On the other hand, Chaos said nothing when he stretched out his hand and touched Emmet’s forehead.

“What are you doing?” Emmet was shocked. He tried to swat away Chaos’ hand, but his hand went through his, as if Chaos was not a solid being. “How...” he was stunned, fear gripped him so tight. The afterworld had already served him so badly, he didn’t need another strange creature to vent their malicious intentions on him.

“What are you planning to do?” Hades narrowed his yellow eyes and the snake near his feet hissed. “You are not going to do that...”

Yet, that was what exactly Chaos did.

Slowly, from Emmet’s forehead, where Chaos touched him, a little fire started. It was only a spark, like a spark when you burned a paper.

But that spark spread, very slowly and agonizingly from Emmet’s forehead, to his eyes, nose, his head and burned his whole head.

The shrill scream from Emmet’s mouth stopped when his whole head had turned into dust, but his body was convulsing profoundly, indicating that he still felt the pain though he had lost his head.

Of course, Emmet still felt the pain, there was no way he would die when he was already dead.

“You broke every rule, Chaos.” Hades’ voice sounded very cold and stern. “You plunged, not only your realm, but this realm into chaos as well. You ruined two worlds.”

What Chaos did was burning down Emmet’s soul, which meant, he would disappear. Completely vanished, there was no way for him to be born again and that was the highest punishment in the afterworld.

“He ruined my world. She is my world.”
