Chapter 683 - No need

Alarmed at what he saw happening, Alex immediately made his way towards Zeke.

"Zeke!" he called out as he flew past Zeke and stopped right in front of him. He was about to speak again as he faced Zeke but what he saw seemed to change his mind and he shut his lips tight. His face that was tight and drawn earlier had now relaxed and he seemed to be breathing easier.

Alex let out a deep sigh of relief instead. Earlier on, what he saw made him alarmed for a moment when he felt Zeke's darkness and at the sight of the thick miasma around him intensifying.

The reason why Alex was always confident about Zeke was because Alex always believed that Zeke was just not a man who would lose control. Because he never did. The world could be ending, and everything could go wrong and go out of control but never this man. Alexander has never seen Zeke lose control in the many years they have known each other and through the countless problems they had faced together.

This was the first time Alex actually thought Zeke might have lost his ever-unwavering self-control and it alarmed him terribly. Knowing that it would be such a royal pain and probably more disastrous than anything else if Ezekiel would actually lose control. Alex had not seen it ever happened before but that was exactly the reason why he was alarmed. He had absolutely no idea what exactly would happen if Zeke, the epitome of calmness and self-control itself, would ever let his darkness consume him fully. All he knew was that this world would witness an apocalypse if Zeke ever gave in and allowed himself to be fully consumed by the dark side and end up going on a mindless rampage. Because to Alex, Zeke was still the most dangerous creature in this world he had ever known. Not because he could not die and that he was too powerful but because he simply had those eyes that were seeing way too much. That was not to be mistaken that he does not know and is not more than a hundred percent informed on what was happening with the things around him – especially for those matters which are important.

However, in all the countless years that had passed, Alex had never doubted Zeke. In fact, Alex trusted Ezekiel more than he trusted in himself sometimes. Because he had seen countless times before that no matter what happens, Zeke always stayed in control. Nothing could ever shake him. Nothing could ever make him lose his shit. And most of all, he could control and contain what lived in his soul so perfectly – that unknown and immense source of power that many do not know about. As to how could he even do that, when it was apparent that it was incredibly powerful, Alex did not have any idea. Zeke had been like this ever since that day. That Alex had thought that his heart had disappeared that day, and that was why nothing could ever shake and faze him anymore.

And thank god, this time too, Zeke remained in control even with such pressing circ.u.mstance. He could see it in his eyes. And even if he was letting his darkness go wilder than ever this time, he was still in the driver's seat. He was still the one in control even though the other half of him obviously was not him anymore – or at least not his normal self that everyone recognizes.

"What are we going to do with these demons? There are way too many of them for both of us to deal with before the curious humans arrive." Alex said. He was feeling a little anxious as they knew that they were running out of time. These demons must be dealt with immediately now and should not be allowed to roam about freely.

Zeke did not bother to respond. He simply scanned the sky as if estimating the numbers of the army of demons still scattered about in the sky. His eyes were sharp and penetrating as opposed to the way he just stood there, deceptively relaxed. As Alex noticed the way Zeke observed and mentally work out his plan, he felt more confident even though there was no visible indication of Zeke signalling that he could settle this issue. From what he understood of Zeke's character and the way he works this could be considered a good indication that he had things well under control. And Alex could feel his anxiousness abate the longer he looked at Zeke's behaviour.

"And how about Zeres? What should we do with him now?" Alex asked again, his gaze fell to the ground and his face showed a slight tightening at the sight of Zeres still hunched over and hugging Alicia and weeping uncontrollably. The sight was just too familiar and painful to him Alex had to forced himself to look away. They do not have the luxury of indulging in their emotions right now.

The reason was due to Alex being worried about Zeres as well. What if he ended up doing the same thing he did back then when he was in that exact same situation? The possibility was extremely high. In fact, Alex was expecting him to go berserk by now that Alicia was dead. It could be happening anytime now.

With a reluctant and sullen expression, Alex suggested, "How about we erase his memories now before he goes berserk? That would be a merciful thing for him right now."

Alex knew that in doing this, they were being cruel. But he of all people knew that forgetting was a kinder thing to do sometimes. Zeres was naturally a good person, if he could forget all these things, especially about Alicia and her death, perhaps they could stop another terrible disaster that was about to come. Zeres right now was very much like a ticking time bomb.

However, Zeke moved past Alex silently. And when his back was facing Alex, Zeke's deep, calm voice was finally heard. "There's no need," he said decisively.
