Destroying My Own Novel

“Hmm?” Mykel sat up from his bed and Lyneth looked at him with curiosity while she was reading a document in her hands.

“What’s wrong?” Lyneth asked as she sat up and looked at Mykel’s face and saw the sun rose.

“They have cleared the fifteenth floor in Asmodeus tower,” Mykel answered and stared at Lyneth.

“Really?! Should we pick them up? We should, let’s go!” Lyneth said and hurriedly put her clothes on, Mykel just chuckled and grabbed his blazer.

They flew to District 6 to pick up Gunnar and the others, they didn’t receive a message from them yet and that meant they were still inside the tower. Mykel checked everyone’s profile and thankfully everyone was alive but in Agnez’s profile, she was heavily injured during her battle against the second demon lord, Varridon.

Mykel and Lyneth were waiting for them outside the tower and slowly people started to come because the news about their achievement had been spread throughout the world. With Mykel and Lyneth on the scene, they tried to approach them and asked so many questions but thankfully the guards prevented them from entering the area near the gate.

“So, is there a reason why you’re asking me to bring doctors here?” Lyneth looked at Mykel with a worried expression.

“I have a feeling that some of them might be heavily injured, that’s why I wanted to bring the doctors and the medics here with us,” Mykel answered with his arms crossed.

“I hope that they’re fine,” Lyneth replied.

Not long after Mykel said that Gunnar and the others came out from the gate. Gunnar was carrying Agnez on the back, and they were surprised to see Mykel and the medics were waiting for them outside.

“Boss! Thank you for bringing these people!” Gunnar said as he hurriedly walked toward the medic and put Agnez on the bed so they could treat her immediately.

“What happened to Agnez?!” Lyneth asked as she looked at Agnez who was covered in blood and unconscious.

It wasn’t just Agnez who was injured, Gerrard, Vince, Sven, Jeanne, and Lillith were injured but it wasn’t as bad as Agnez. Gunnar was also heavily injured like Agnez but he used the gauntlet on his own so he was fine in the end.

The medics and the doctors checked on everyone’s condition and they treated them on the spot because Mykel had prepared everything for them.

“I will use the gauntlet on Agnez tomorrow, boss, because I have used the skill for myself back there,” Gunnar informed Mykel even though he already knew the details.

“It’s fine, you guys have met my expectation,” Mykel answered and said it to everyone. “Let’s leave,” he said as he saw Agnez was being brought to the ambulance.

Everyone went to the hospital and waited for Agnez to wake up.

“So, what happened in there?” Mykel asked.

“Everything was fine for the first few hours and once we thought that we could finish the demon lord off. He used some kind of dolls that he grabbed from somewhere. He took a drop of blood from our bodies and then smeared them onto the dolls that he had,” Rozan answered as he tried to remember the details.

“The moment he was done playing with the dolls, he consumed them all and we decided to attack him but it surprised us that our attacks not only hurt the demon lord but also hurt us as well. It was a tough call and for some reason, Gunnar and Agnez took the heaviest blow compared to the rest of us. That’s why she’s like that right now,” Rozan explained and he looked a bit angry.

Second Demon Lord, Varridon wasn’t an easy opponent and it would be impossible to clear without at least hundreds of Awakeners. With Rozan alone, it was enough but it was still quite difficult because, in the original story, Rozan was the only one who could clear the Asmodeus tower.

Without Rozan’s [Anti-Magic], Varridon could wipe the whole army of Awakeners since he didn’t have [Magic] but instead [Dark Magic] that could take control of everything on the fifteenth floor. The cursed dolls that Rozan mentioned were one of the many magics that could harm his target without having to try because all his magic has something to do with manipulation.

They were quite lucky that Varridon only used cursed dolls because if he used another magic, he could kill all of them quite easily.

“Don’t blame yourself, Rozan, we didn’t know that he could do something like that,” Jeanne said.

“I can’t, if only I didn’t use my Anti-Magic too early, something like this wouldn’t have happened. I can do better and I will do better in the next world, I can promise you guys,” Rozan replied and looked at the others.

Lyneth sighed with relief. “Mykel isn’t mad and that alone is enough to tell that you’re not in the wrong, Rozan,” she said with a smile on her face.

“Ma’am, I’m not sure if I can see the sun the moment I leave the hospital later,” Rozan replied and everyone immediately chuckled and covered their mouths.

“Don’t worry, I can hold him back so you can run before he can touch you,” Lyneth said jokingly as she wrapped her arms around Mykel’s body.

“You guys get some rest because you deserve it and once you all prepared for another clearance, just come to me,” Mykel stood up and looked at them.

“We are fine, we can go right away tomorrow once Agnez is fully recovered,” Jeanne replied and the others are nodding in agreement. “We don’t have time to rest after knowing that we have three weeks before the breakout happens. Not to mention there are still ten towers that we need to clear,”

“I told you it would be impossible to clear all of them in a month, you can only clear two or three towers at max with the time we have left. I can only clear three or four towers on my own, don’t push yourself too hard or you might make a mistake that could kill you all in the tower,” Mykel explained with a serious expression.

“You wouldn’t know what kind of world you’re going to face and that alone is enough to give you a bit of anxiety. Use your time to clear your head and that’s an order, do you understand?” Mykel asked.

All of them nodded their heads with understanding.

“Which tower are you going to clear next, boss?” Gunnar asked.

“I’m thinking of clearing the Belphegor tower tonight,” Mykel answered.

“Which tower do you want us to clear next?” Jeanne asked.

“Let’s clear the tower that was difficult to clear back then, and I’m thinking of Abaddon tower since you already know what kind of demons you’re going to face. We will let the easier towers go so we can handle them during the breakout,” Mykel answered with his hands in his pockets.

“If that’s the case, we are going to clear the Lucifer tower as well?” Rozan asked.

“No, I don’t think we can clear the Lucifer tower yet,” Mykel answered as he shook his head.

The reason why was because of how different the Lucifer tower was as compared to the others. It would take them a whole month even if Mykel wanted to clear up to the fifteenth floor.

The realm on each floor in Lucifer tower was so big that there were so many missions to clear a single floor. In the original story, Asmond took a whole month to clear the eleventh floor, and later in the future, it took him a whole year to clear a floor.

“Anyway, I have to go now and prepare everything that I need in the Belphegor tower. You guys can try to clear the Abaddon tower when you guys are ready,” Mykel said, all of them nodded with understanding, and then he left the hospital and went to District 12 where the Belphegor tower was.

This time he went inside the Belphegor tower on his own, Asmond didn’t bother him again since he was still feeling guilty for what he did.

Mykel entered the portal to the eleventh floor and a notification welcomed him as always.

[You have proven yourself in the trial, you have been chosen to save the worlds that the Demon King, Belphegor has conquered]

[The first world, Veatika]

[Free Veatika from the Second Demon Lord Golgos’s army!]

Mykel looked up as he sighed because the first thing he saw was a tall cliff and it blocked his path with only one way to go. The only Demon King who modified all the world just for entertainment and made all the worlds he conquered into a maze of death.

The cliff was so tall that it was impossible to climb it up and stood on top of it because of the invisible ceiling of the eleventh floor. The only way to clear the floor was to go and enter the maze of death.

“You have destroyed the world as you please, so don’t blame me if I make my own shortcut,” Mykel said as he cracked his knuckles.
