Chapter 331: 331

331 I AM YOUR FATHER

“Stop it, River,” Gael said, right before his eyes, the lava rose so high, as if it had its own mind.

Seeing that, Gael didn’t even flinch at all. He just made a slicing movement, as he waved his hand when River made the lava around her attack Gael. It was her instinct to protect herself and Vanesha.

“Stop this.” Gael just defended himself, there was no way he would attack his daughter back. He understood that she was scared and confused.

While doing so, Gael walked closer toward his daughter. There was this warm smile on his lips, as if his old self had returned, despite his daughter trying to kill him. He was too ecstatic to meet his daughter to think otherwise.

“Stop it, okay?” Right now, Gael stood right in front of River. He caught her hand when she tried to hit him and burn him again. The fire in her palm died down easily. “I am your father,” Gael said. “River, I am your father.”

The words came out of his lips just like that. He didn’t remember the last time he felt so relieved. He simply couldn’t believe that this day had finally come.

“I am your father.” He didn’t realize how much he wanted to say these very words when he finally returned to be with Lise and their daughter again. “I am your father, River.”

Once she heard this, River stopped struggling, she looked at Gael, scrunching her nose, which made her look like Lise when she was confused.

“But, I want my mother,” River said, there was a deep furrow between her brows when she stated this.

.....

“Of course,” Gael laughed lightly when he heard that, as he released her hand and caressed her cheek, to wipe away the soot from her pale skin. “We will meet your mother, your mother really wants to see you. She is waiting for you.”

Right at that time, a gunshot rang out, coming from Sol’s direction as a bullet hit Gael’s arm, which alerted him that they were not alone right now. They couldn’t drop their guard at this moment.

Swiftly, Gael pulled River closer to him and hid her behind his back, while another gunshot rang in the air.

But this time, Gael made the right move, just in time. He raised his hand and the lava rose high, but it hardened to create a solid shield to protect them from the fire.

“This will not last for long, we need to go from here, okay?” Gael talked gently to his daughter and then approached Vanesha, who lost her consciousness and scooped her up. “Hold onto me tight.”

River watched how Gael took Vanesha and then grabbed the hem of his shirt, as she followed him.

Above them, the sky had turned slightly dark, as dawn rapidly came, while in the distance there heard a lot of orders being screamed followed by gunfire.

=========================

Did she kill him?

What had she done...?

The thought of holding responsibility for Chaos’ death was something that she couldn’t live with.

“Hades...” Zuri called for the god of the underworld.

Hades was right there, staring at her when she was being strangled by Chaos, without doing anything, a moment ago.

Therefore, he must still be here right now. He must be lurking somewhere.

“HADES!” Zuri screamed at the top of her lungs. She looked around frantically, trying to ask for help, yet there was no one there while Chaos wouldn’t even move.

Not too far from her, the dragon was still writhing in pain. One thing that Zuri was grateful for was the fact that the dragon was no longer breathing fire, or else, she would have died by now. The agony that the monstrous creature was going through must be exceptional for it to not be able to do that.

“Are you calling me, sweety?” Hades then appeared beside Zuri, smirking triumphantly, which tempted her so much to punch him right in the face. “Need my help? Want me to burn him to hell?”

Zuri hissed at him, as she swatted Hades’ hands when he was about to touch Chaos.

“Don’t you dare to touch him,” she said viciously, which made the smirk on Hades’ lips grow even more vicious.

“So, what do you want by calling for me, beautiful?” he asked her in a light tone, as he laughed at her attempt to keep herself together. He loved seeing how desperate she was being right now. “Do you want to have a deal with me?” Hades extended his hand.

This was the same offer that he had asked Zuri for a couple of times in the past, and every single time, he would be turned down by her without a second thought.

But, right now... Zuri considered it. This was insane, since she knew how badly things could go wrong after sealing a deal with a devil.

“Chaos has sacrificed his life, his soul and everything that he has for you, countless times, without a second thought, or even thinking about himself, but right now you are hesitating when you are in his position.” Hades ts-ked, he looked at Zuri scornfully.

“You told me to stab him.” Zuri tried to defend herself and her actions, but she knew it was only a weak attempt to justify herself.

“Will you kiss me if I told you to kiss me?” Hades teased her, ignoring the dangerous growl that came from the girl. “I kissed you once in the past, remember?”

Zuri gritted her teeth, the topic had gone so wrong. “What is your deal?” She didn’t even see Hades in the eyes when she asked this.

“Are you sure, you will go through this?” Hades raised his brows, his golden eyes shone brightly. “You will do anything for your dying man?”

This was how the devil worked, right? He would give you hope when you were at your lowest, but without you knowing it, you would fall even deeper.
