Chapter 265: Chapter no 95

Surprisingly, before Zariah could shoot Amanda, Elton did this, doing a headshot, killing her along with the baby that could never be born.

"What the!?"

"I won't let you... hurt her..." He whispered, tears filling his eyes, losing his mind when he shot due to grief.

He never imagined a day like this would come.

Hands shaking violently to end those he once considered his comrade but his point of view was simple.

Those who would try to rip Nathaniel from his happiness were his enemies.

Although he was hating himself for killing a pregnant lady, staggering Zariah that he broke his ethics for her.

She never expected him to save her.

"What the-"

"He did everything for me.. always tried to save me... helped me move on... accepted me when my family didn't..."

He whispered, releasing a tear when he had fallen low in his own eyes, punching the ground as the smoke was clearing as well.

"He is not only my ideal... but family to me... And I won't let anyone steal his one chance to be happy!"

"Elton..." Whispering, she hesitantly placed her hand over his shoulder and passed a weak smile.

"Thank you..."

"Zariah... if she is doing this... then she must have joined hands with.. Zoran... We have to go," He gulped.

Wiping his tears to make his heart stone-cold and accept the harsh path he had chosen.

"Yea-"

She was about to get up and soon hear them retreating with another undesirable resonance.

"Wait, this sound. Shit, this smoke was not to blur my sight but to implant a bomb. We have to leave, now!"

"O-Okay!"

She grabbed her gun and rushed to Nathaniel's side to protect him at all cost after Amanda's attempt to cease the sting of her life.

Hating Zariah for taking her one chance to be happy which resulted in her demise.

And after her years of serving the Plague Doctor, she took her last ones as a deceiver... unlike her husband.

Meanwhile, he was at the warehouse, whistling calmly to himself after being done with his work.

"Oh, Zariah's calling?"

Unlocking his phone, he saw a text from Zariah.

'Amanda has betrayed us all, the hideout has been blown. Please be safe, Me and Elton are coming,'

It disappointed him to the core, disheartening him to receive such a ruse after becoming her savior.

The second he turned to leave, he sensed the change in air. His workers behaving strangely that alarmed him.

'Tsk, I should have known. His death left a deep impact on her, she was no longer restricted to my commands,'

He thought when the woman who was once prepared to lay her life for him was resolved to 'avenge' her husband and forget his mercy.

Narrowing his eyes, he continued whistling.

Tightening his grip on his gun and in a heartbeat, a sniper shot him as an initiation of attack.

Ducking, he moved behind a trailer, killing the sniper in one shot as the workers began to sprint and gather around him with the resolve to end him.

It excited him.

"Ah, after years, I am having traitors again, guess they have stopped fearing me."

Whispering under his breath, he killed them in one smooth movement that signaled others to gather around and corner him.

The number of people overpowered him.

He was surrounded, those greedy ones who deceived their boss were prepared to cease his breaths and it almost pumped his blood.

The scenario, the dreadful situation where his place to escape was closed, exciting them to perceive they would take the honor of ending him.

"Ah, how thrilling,"

He whispered darkly under his breath, taking off his waist and rolling his sleeves roughly to move around freely, moving his one foot back.

'Five on the front, ten inside, three on the side. I have two bullets left. Let's see if I can do this or not,' He thought, almost electrified.

He killed the two. His magazine was empty.

Sliding to the side, barely watching out, he threw a dagger at the man who ran to attack him.

Killing him in one swoop, he snatched his gun and his dagger back, using it for close combat.

Grabbing him by the front and using him to cover himself and ran to another trailer.

"Catch him!"

"As if you can,"

He cleared another wave in an easy movement, indicating why he reached the top that their numbers failed to cause deep damage to the undefeated.

Smirking when they reduced in numbers as he managed to hide and took them from behind one by one.

"Find him!"

Running through the stock, he grabbed one from behind.

Choking it to death, using it as a shield and using its gun to kill others as well before escaping the sight again, rushing inside taking the chance to hide.

"Tsk, loser,"

He knew being an ace took more than brain and legion. He was the leader and must live up to the name and survive this petty attack.

To show why he was the number one criminal of this world with a power that was unreachable, a dominance they together failed to suppress.

"Fuck..."

One hour...

Amid the pool of blood, his clothes, hands and mind consumed by bloodlust, the breathless sound was released.

Exhausted, he was panting when he was done killing all of them. Alone.

Death dispersed, bodies lying everywhere as he stood alone as a harbinger of death.

Throwing the last one away, scowling to end the one who betrayed him.

His shoulder was strained, arm bleeding, blood flowing from the side of his head by the wound he got during fighting.

He was injured too yet managed to kill them all under one hour, maintaining the pride of his name.

The Plague Doctor.

When he was regaining his senses, utterly drained to continue fighting further, he sensed footsteps approaching.

Ducking, both bullets were released.

He shot Zoran's leg as his arm was shot, throwing them both to the ground.

"Oh... you,"

Nathaniel growled in pain, forcing himself to stand, holding his bleeding arm, curling it in a fist.

On the ground, Zoran hissed, "Do you think I was a fool to attack the monster on my own? I had to weaken you somehow,"

"Do you think a mere pest as yourself can kill me?"

"You have been weakened, Plague Doctor, you have lost your best man, De Villiers, you have lost power, you have lost reign,"

"What shall I consider your foolish attempt?"

He laughed huskily, eyes staring dead into his eyes malevolently that dried his throat.

His body was stiff, the scent of death, those predatory eyes on him.

He swallowed hard when he took a step closer, "Are you being delusional?"

"I know... I can't, alone..."

Before his mind could register, someone shot Zoran in the abdomen.

Not listening to his inane talks further until he sensed multiple guns pointing at him.

Leaving him at a vulnerable point from where the escape was no longer possible.

"But, we can,"
