Under The Veil of Night Chapter 667 Verge of Breaking Down

On the side, Jeff just watched from the side with derision on his face. He was not proficient in close combat fight, so he didn't even try to bother with them. Besides, was there any need to fight a broken person?
He laughed maniacally. "This is what happens when you care about someone too much. You'll just become weaker and never be able to fight by yourself."
"You're just venting your anger in them," Vena said coolly.
Jeff shrugged. Even if he did, why did that matter? He hated people in relationships because he had experienced something that broke him too in the past. For him, seeing couples experienced pain was more exciting than watching their sweet moment.
"Aren't you happy to see other people's relationships break? It feels more satisfying than seeing them having a steady and good relationship."
Vena didn't answer. She knew that she felt jealous of their relationship as she was hoping for herself to have one too. They only see each other in their life and put other's happiness at the very first above them.
It was truly enviable.
But she didn't want to see this end too. She might be a cold hearted person, but she never wanted to separate two people in love. If they didn't care for each other just like what Randy did to her, she didn't mind separating them. But seeing the two of them trying their best just for the sake of their other half…
She didn't like it. Not at all. Things shouldn't end this way.
"Well, I guess it's already the time to kill him," Jeff smirked, not caring for Vena's lack of response. This girl was named as the icy queen in this place precisely because Ferdinand had destroyed her heart too. If she didn't want to answer, he didn't want to make her do so.
He pulled out a knife from his back. Even if he was not proficient in close combat fighting, he still brought weapons on his daily days. After all, there was no telling when he would need them.
"I see," Vena said nonchalantly. Her eyes were staring at the two people in front of her as numerous thoughts were formed inside her mind. In a way, she felt jealous of them.
They cared about one another to the point that they didn't want to hurt each other. They would prefer having themselves got hurt rather than the person beside them. Really, she wished to have a relationship like them.
Jeff walked towards the silent Kevin. As Kevin's entire attention was poured on Kanae, he didn't seem to care about his surroundings anymore. Even if it was a battlefield, what mattered the most for him was the woman in his arms.
A dead woman in his arm.
He sneered internally as he lunged forward.
BAM!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Before he could reach Kevin, the ground shook badly. He stumbled on the rock nearby and landed on the ground. His eyes turned to the back, trying to find out what had caused the sound.
Vena was surprised to hear the sound from the room where Patrick and Carlo fought just before. Her eyes were fixated on the room when she saw Patrick walked out. His clothes were filled with dust and blood, not even his face was spared.
His eyes were glinting with massive killing intent. When he climbed up, he noticed that the sound of fighting had ceased. Upon seeing the two people cradling in close embrace, his heart dropped.
'What happened here?'
The two of them stayed close with one another with Kevin's face near the girl's. From this angle, he could see Kanae's body perfectly. Her chest no longer moved.
It could only mean one thing: Kanae was not breathing.
She has died.
Although he couldn't see Kevin's expression, he was sure that his nephew was in the state of sadness and probably, breaking down.
When his thoughts reached the word 'breaking down' he knew that there was a chance for the man to awaken his power once more. However, the awakening would take a toll on his body and possibly kill Kevin. He had seen James's double awakening, so he knew how dangerous it would be.
Kevin might be stronger than James, but he had heard from Mike how this man had to struggle just to overcome the pain. If he had to undergo another one so soon, it might send him straight to his death too.
This place would be a grave for both of them.
'Who dare to make them into this state?'
His eyes glowed dangerously as he swept his glance on the two people. He saw the troubled Vena and Jeff. Jeff was looking at him with disbelief written all over his face. It was apparent that he didn't think he could still be alive when he fell to the ground.
His eyes noticed the small knife on Jeff's hand, which was directed to Kevin. That sight caused his heart to boil with anger.
"B*STARD!"
Without hesitation, he stomped on the ground and charged towards Jeff. His spear was ready to kill the man who dared to hurt his two precious family's members.
"You! How did you-?"
Jleb! Bang!
The spear thrust into the man's chest before sending him back and slammed the wall. Blood flowed out like a waterfall from his chest. His eyes widened in disbelief at the end he got. Blood splattered along with his organs that somehow got torn along with Patrick rampart attack.
It was too quick for him to realize what had happened.
Patrick thrust his spear near Vena's neck, barely grazing her delicate skin. His eyes and aura emitted massive killing intent. "What happened here?"
"He killed her," Vena replied back firmly. She looked straight back to Patrick without any hint of fear. It looked like she never cared for what happened to herself.
Patrick's heart sank deeper. He knew that it was impossible for Kevin to wound Kanae as he loved her very much. If that man truly killed her, he didn't know what would happen to him anymore.
"How did that happen?"
"He pierced the controller device in her body. It can never be removed from one's body, so she died," Vena explained in a simplified manner.
Patrick felt that there was something that Vena hid, but he didn't bother to find out anymore. He turned around and stepped towards the two of them. After hesitating a bit, he crouched near the two of them, his hand was placed on Kevin's shoulder.
"Kevin, can you hear me?"
Kevin raised his head, his watery eyes stunned Patrick completely. In his entire life, he had never seen Kevin cry except when the latter was still a baby. Even when his girlfriend who was the one Kevin regarded as his own mother died, Kevin didn't cry. He stayed firm and never let his real feelings out.
As he had missed the time when Kevin lost his parents, he didn't know that Kevin cried at that time too. The two times he cried happened because the person he cared about died because of him.
"I…kill her."
"No, you don't," Patrick replied strongly. "Get yourself together, Kevin."
Kevin stared back at Patrick as guilt filled his body. "Uncle, you don't understand…. I truly kill her."
The pain and remorse that filled the man's eyes pierced the deepest part of Patrick's heart. He truly couldn't bear to see this proud man in this state.
