BXBX NOVEL Chapter 497 497: Twice
When the time stopped, there was no one near him. So it didn\'t make sense that right when the time stopped, someone could be so close to him to attack! Unless...
Gabriel realized that it was the trick of Herriet. Even when he had confidence in his skills to kill Gabriel, he still left a backup! He stopped time for everyone... Everyone except someone that he left behind to kill him in case he failed!
When time was frozen, Gabriel could only see what was ahead and couldn\'t sense the entire battlefield. That was the perfect time for someone to come closer from behind while he was distracted.
However, it was hard to imagine that Herriet, who was crazy in his anger, could come up with this plan. It didn\'t make sense.
The sword was still in his chest, covered in blood. However, it was only when Gabriel saw the Sword that his expressions changed! This sword... It wasn\'t from this world! It was a sword from the Nether Realm, containing the cursed powers of the Nether.
His expressions darkened. It didn\'t make sense for Herriet to be in contact with them. Even the Temple of Time couldn\'t go to the Nether Realm after all.
At the moment, the worldly shackles had destroyed all the gates of the Temple of Time. The Formation was destroyed while the shackles returned to him.
As soon as he was stabbed in the back, his figure disappeared as he appeared a thousand feet away, still having the Sword stabbed in his back.
He held the Sword firmly, pulling it out while also looking in the direction where he was standing to see just who it was that attacked him like that! If it was someone strong, he would\'ve been able to sense their threat after all, even if they were from the Nether Realm.
"You..."
The Nether Sword fell on the ground, still covered in Gabriel\'s blood. Some mist could also be seen surrounding the Sword which was decaying his blood around the sword. It was as if the sword was poisoned!
Just we he especially, the wound on his chest wasn\'t healing as it should. However, he doesn\'t think about that. Instead, his gaze rested at a person in the distance.
In the middle of the battlefield where he used to stand, there was a girl, on her knees. Her face was pale and she looked scared.
It was none other than Maya.
Gabriel was almost killed twice in this life, and both times it was the girl who used to be his friend. Even now, she was the one who stabbed him in the back.
A killing intent like never before exuded from Gabriel! The killing intent made everyone in this World tremble deep within.

[Ten minutes ago]
The group from the Nether Realm reached the battlefield, amazed at the scale of the battle that they saw!
They came here to find people close to Gabriel that they could take with them. However, there was only one person here who was fighting for Gabriel... It was Raphael!
Unfortunately, when they saw how strong Raphael was, they dropped the idea. If Raphael was so strong, wouldn\'t it be better to kill Gabriel instead. Both paths led to death after all.
They didn\'t even dare to get closer to the battlefield in fear that they were going to be caught in the crossfire and die. They had almost given up hope when they saw a white domain cover the battlefield!
It was the Domain of Time! Even though they never left the Nether Realm, they knew about such things since their world had fought the Upper Realm many times in the past.
Thanks to all that knowledge, they realized that this was the opportunity! An opportunity where Gabriel could be killed by his enemies. Unfortunately, they couldn\'t leave it to chance!
"Here." The Leader of the Blood Clan took off his ring, giving it to the Maya. "This is my treasure, so it should help you. Wear it and enter the battlefield!"
"This ring should make you immune to the Time Domain for three minutes. Enter the Domain and make sure that he is killed!" The middle aged man exclaimed.
Maya\'s face went pale. They were asking her to do it herself? And that too, entering the battlefield of this scale? One wrong step and she could die!
"Y-you are stronger. Shouldn\'t you do it?" She asked, hesitantly.
Unfortunately, she didn\'t receive a response. The man only gave her a glare. No matter what, he wasn\'t going to take this risk. She was a tool to them that had no value. It was better to send her that going themselves! Even if she died, it didn\'t matter after all! Her death was better than their death!
"You\'re weak. It would be harder for him to sense you since he\'s paying his attention on that little boy who used the Domain. Go now and kill him! Don\'t you want your teacher to be saved?" The middle aged man also tossed a blood red sword at Maya\'s feet. "Make sure to stab him with that."
Maya looked at the Sword at her feet before glancing at Gabriel frozen in the distance. Unfortunately, she still picked up the Sword. Even though they used to be friends in the past, the time was long over. Even if she was nice to him, he wasn\'t going to forgive her after all!
She wasn\'t even sure when Gabriel might change his mind and come look for her to have his revenge for the past. Moreover, he had already killed so many people on the battlefield. If he wasn\'t stopped, millions of people were going to die!
She clenched the sword\'s hilt tightly. Even though she was scared, she decided to do it!
She hid the sword in her storage ring so it couldn\'t be sensed easily before she flew inside the Domain.
The ring that she was given was something that could only protect her from the Domain for a few minutes before shattering. However, a few minutes was more than enough!
She flew straight inside the battlefield from where she could see Gabriel\'s back.
Even Herriet didn\'t notice her since he was more focused on Gabriel, blinded by hate and revenge!
Maya stopped behind Gabriel right when he stopped Herriet.
When dying, Herriet noticed Maya behind Gabriel. His lips couldn\'t help but curve, revealing a smirk even as his body was destroyed!
