“How long have I been here?” Mykel asked to himself and he had lost sense of time in the void that a second felt like an hour. “I can sense your presence so you don’t have to pretend that I’m alone here,” he looked at his surroundings.

“What’s the point of you keeping me here? Are you trying to break the deal that we have?” Mykel asked as he looked at the void. “You said that as long as I don’t disturb the balance, I’m allowed to do whatever I want. Now, what’s this?”

“Are you afraid that someone who doesn’t have a thread of fate would take control over The World?” Mykel started to get annoyed about getting played by Mara. “Shouldn’t you punish Lucifer instead of me because I’m not exactly the one who’s destroying my world and I’m not the threat here,”

“I know about that already, but I shouldn’t punish someone who hasn’t done anything wrong,” Mara’s voice could be heard from behind Mykel. “How about you join me and watch your world that’s currently in the middle of chaos?”

A long arm was reaching out right next to Mykel’s right eye and something appeared in front of him. A see-through mirror showed the current situation on Earth where demons were ravaging and rampaging in all districts.

Mykel watched Gunnar and the others fought the demons and they were all heavily injured. Everyone was struggling to survive the breakout and hundreds of Awakeners were laying on the ground dead like fish.

Agnez with Jeanne was dealing with the demon-like dragon that descended from the sky. They both fought the dragon but were overwhelmed by the demon’s strength and almost got crushed by it.

Mykel looked at Asmond and he was protecting the Awakeners who were trying to retreat because they were heavily injured. He fought dozens of demons on his own as he kept pushing the demons away from the city.

“Those are Sven and Vincze, right?” Mara whispered into Mykel’s ear from behind as she pointed at those two laying on the ground with one of their arms chopped off. “It seems that without you, they can’t handle the demons,”

Mykel chuckled and shook his head. “Do you think I would believe that? Do you think I will fall for your illusion?” Mykel looked at the pale fingers right next to his face. “No matter how weak they are, they’re still stronger than Asmond and that alone is enough to tell that this is just an illusion that you created,”.

Mara giggled and swirled her fingers so smoothly and it changed the image on the mirror.

“It’s not even started and yet you tried to make it look like my world is going to fall so easily like that? That’s so cheap,” Mykel looked at Gunnar and Rozan were standing in front of the tower with hundreds of Awakeners behind them.

(At the same time on Earth, District 4)

Gunnar and Rozan were standing in front of the Beelzebub tower with hundreds of Awakeners ready behind them. They both looked back and saw the new weapons the government made based on Barika’s and the people from the Juven world introduced.

“The sky is still bright, do you think I have enough time to go to the bathroom?” Gunnar looked at Rozan as he wiggled his arms because he was a bit nervous since it was their first time dealing with demons outside the tower.

“Dude, just go to behind that post. We only have three minutes left before the breakout happens,” Rozan pointed his finger at the guard post near the tower’s gate.

“Fuck! I’m going to hold it in then,” Gunnar grabbed his shield and axe then stretched his shoulders and neck.

“Just don’t shit your pants, I don’t want to wash your ass with my magic,” Rozan replied as he rolled the staff in his hand.

(Mahazael Tower In District 3)

Lyneth was watching the Awakeners and soldiers standing in line in front of the Mahazael tower from the rooftop with Edith, Zherlthsh, and Vixelleth. She didn’t want to be there in the first place because the one who led the Awakeners and soldiers was Kastor with Asmond and Enma.

“Why do you want me to be here, Zeth? Vix?” Lyneth looked at both of them back and forth since she was standing in between the two.

Vixelleth stared at Zherlthsh and tilted her head toward Lyneth.

“The reason why we are here, we are actually not just ordinary humans, Lyneth,” Zherlthsh answered with a gentle smile on her face.

“Wait, what?” Lyneth looked at Zherlthsh with a surprised expression. “So, you’re an Awakener?” she raised her eyebrows with curiosity.

“You can say that,” Zherlthsh nodded her head and it made both Lyneth and Edith looked at her with disbelief. “We are here to take care of the demons from the towers just in case these people can’t handle them,”

“Are you sure you’re strong enough to handle the demons? You never joined Mykel and the others, and you both were always been with me almost every day. That means your level is not as high as Gunnar and the others, right? Are you sure about this?” Lyneth looked a bit skeptical about it.

“Just watch,” Zherlthsh smiled and chuckled softly.

(Samael Tower, District 7)

Gerrard and Lillith were chilling on top of the semi-truck hood, they were quietly staring at the Awakeners and soldiers right in front of them. Gerrard offered bubble gum to Lillith because he didn’t want her to feel anxious or nervous because of the atmosphere around them.

“What flavor is that? Strawberry?” Lillith asked and looked at the bubble gum in Gerrard’s hand. “Oh, it’s blueberry? Thank you,” she grabbed the bubble gum and unwrapped it.

Lillith could read Gerrard’s mind so Gerrard didn’t have to write it down or use sign language. Gerrard was the only guy that Lillith was fine to be with because he was fun to be around, and Lillith’s fun meant being quiet.

“Do you think they can handle the tower on their own?” Lillith looked at Gerrard as she covered her eyes from the blinding sunlight.

Gerrard chewed his gum as he raised his eyebrows and tilted his head.

“I know that already,” Lillith nodded her head. “Although they’re with the best Awakeners we have in the Guild Association, I’m kind of worried about them, especially Agnez,”

Gerrard smiled and nodded his head.

“Yeah, she’s the strongest and I believe so too that she can handle everything on her own,” Lillith looked down as she crumbled the bubble-gum wrapper.

(Astaroth Tower, District 9)

Vincze and Nagy stood behind the Awakeners, they had no experience in leading a team and not to mention thousands of them. Nagy had a problem with communication because of her she was a shy person, and she couldn’t be depended on.

“I’m sorry that I can help you in this one, but I will do my best on killing the demons,” Nagy said quietly as she saw people walking by in front of her.

“It’s fine, I think we can do this just don’t leave me alone because I might get a panic attack,” Vincze replied as he laughed nervously with his spear resting in front of his shoulder. “We both need to learn how to lead people, Nagy, we can’t just be passive like this from now on,”

Nagy hummed with understanding as she stared at the katars in her hands. “I will try,”

(Satan Tower, District 10)

Sven was on his own as he stood in front of the Awakeners and soldiers with his scythe resting on his shoulder. He looked at the time as he sighed because he couldn’t wait to fight demons and it was the first time in a while that he could go all out and take everything for himself.

“Are you guys nervous?” Sven asked the Awakeners behind him with a grin on his face. The Awakeners nodded their heads immediately. “Don’t be! This is going to be fun!” Sven said and then started screaming in excitement.

(Mammon Tower, District 11)

Jeanne closed her eyes as she leaned on the truck with her arms crossed while listening to everyone’s conversation to calm herself down. She could hear everyone was afraid and nervous about the breakout, but thanks to the weapons that the government had prepared, it put them at ease a little.

ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ Suddenly a strong wind hit Jeanne’s face and at the same time, people started to murmur and pointed their fingers at the sky.

Jeanne opened her eyes and saw the bright blue sky turned dark and the sun was covered by the moon. She pushed herself up and walked to the front while everyone was still staring at the eclipse.

“Everyone! Please go to your position!” Jeanne shouted and everyone snapped back to their sense and then started running back to their position.

(Lucifer Tower, District 13)

“Move!” Agnez said as all the Awakeners and soldiers were making a path for her to the frontline. They were scared of her presence that they didn’t dare to look up and look her in the eye.

Agnez stared at the eclipse and then removed her glasses with her left eye turned to a demon eye. She then heard loud bangings from behind the tower’s gate, she stared at it as she unsheathed her sword and walked toward the tower on her own.

“Deadly, the path you take, but I know you can make it,” Mazikeen whispered in Agnez’s head. “Just keep me inside and just now that I will get you through the morning,”

“Let’s get this over with,” Agnez swung her sword around.
