Destroying My Own Novel

[You have entered Gehenna, Babel Tower (Middle Floor)]

[Defeat Kasael, The Third Demon Lord of Lucifer]

Although Lucifer was no longer the Demon King, the system still used his name because he wasn't dead since the soul lived inside Mykel. The system still counted him as alive, and the Demon Lords hadn't shown their loyalty to Luciel yet. Maybe if they pledged their loyalty to Luciel, the system would change the name.

"By the way, is it really okay to leave Miss Vix and her colleagues behind?" Enma asked Gunnar.

"You must have heard about the encounter with the three Demon Lords during their attempt to clear the Asmodeus Tower, right? The ones who saved them were Vix, Zeth, and Belda. They defeated them and came back like it was nothing. So, they're the last people you should be worried about," Gunnar answered.

"I see..." Enma was so overwhelmed and so confused by everything at that moment.

"You'll get used to it, eventually," Lexus said as he walked next to Nexus and stared at her. "We were the same when we joined them, but it will grow on you," Lexus continued.

Enma didn't know whom she was talking to, so they all introduced themselves to her. She didn't know Mykel recruited new people, and they had weird accents, all of them, but she brushed it off because it didn't really bother her.

They walked deeper into the tower until they saw two paths in front of them.

"So, which path we are going to take?" Rozan asked.

"Either way is fine. The path will connect again on the other side since we are inside a giant square tower," Mykel answered as he walked to the front. "You guys pick a side, and I will take the other," Mykel continued.

"You will go on your own?" Agnez asked.

"Yes. It's been a long time since I can enjoy myself in the tower. I will see if there are any demons left that I can hunt. I bet there have been at least hundreds of Awakeners that entered the tower, and they must have killed most of them," Mykel answered as he looked at the right path.

"Alright, we will take the left side then," Agnez said as she took the left turn and was followed by the others.

Mykel took the right side and started using the wind detection to check if there were any demons that were hiding around him. The tower was currently twice the size of the Kastihel Kingdom, and it would take a few hours to reach the other side. On the current floor he was on, there were at least hundreds or almost a thousand rooms, and in the original story, the Babel Tower was turned into a condo.

He looked at the rooms and sections on his left and right. He saw people who were chilling inside. Some were heavily injured and lost a limb or two. Based on their levels and the time that had passed, they should have reached the one floor below him. They must have been taken by surprise by how strong the demons were compared to this floor.

After five hours of walking, he reached the other side of the tower, and not a single demon existed on that floor. Agnez and the others came an hour later because they had to ask about the situation in the tower. They got the answer as what Mykel had thought earlier.

"This is the stairs to the lower floor, right? Where hundreds of Awakeners got slaughtered by the demons?" Sven asked and he sounded so excited. "Can I go down first?" Sven looked at Agnez with a huge grin on his face.

"Sure... those who want to get juicy XP can go down first," Agnez sighed as she looked at how dark and gloomy the stairs were.

Everyone ran down the stairs except for Agnez, Jeanne, Edith, and Enma, but then Enma got dragged along by Gunnar.

"Where's exactly Kasael at? On which floor?" Agnez asked.

"Ten floors below us. On the fifth floor, you will be facing his servants. From there onward, the floor became much bigger, maybe twice of this floor. The further we go down, the wider the floor will be," Mykel answered as he looked at how far the stairs were that he couldn't see the end of it.

"That shouldn't be a problem," Agnez stretched her arms and neck. "We can sweep the floors easily," Agnez said as she walked down the stairs.

The four of them walked down the stairs, and little did they know that the stairs seemed endless. The reason was that the stairs' length was equal to the diameter of the tower. It took them hours to finally reach the bottom of the stairs.

"Rozan lit the left torches, I guess we should go to the right," Jeanne said. "Or would you rather go down this path on your own again, Mykel?" Jeanne asked as she looked at Mykel.

"You can join me if you want to. I don't really mind as long as I can have my own fun in the tower," Mykel said as he lit up the torches.

"Watching you in action should be fun, I want to see it," Agnez said as she rested her head on Mykel's shoulder for a moment.

(Three days later)

"Haaaah... Why did I decide to go inside three days later after I met with them?! I should have entered the tower and followed them back there rather than tell you guys about it," Leonard said as he hurriedly ran down the stairs. He looked back and saw hundreds of people following him. They were all there because they heard about the news from him.

"You're the one to blame, don't blame us," A woman in white full-plate armor and wore a full-face helmet with a spear on her back said. "You can just send someone and tell us about it. You're just too excited and wanted to tell us personally, Leo," she continued.

"More importantly. We have been passing eight stairs, and the ninth stairs now. How could they clear these floors so easily?! It has been only three days! The floors are huge! It took us two weeks to clear the first floor," An old man in leather armor with two swords on his back was ranting as he followed Leonard from behind.

They saw wet spots on the left side of the stairs. It wasn't the first time they saw it because on the previous stairs, they saw the same wet spot as well. It was as if someone had poured water on the carpets.

"Maybe what they said was right. Those guys from the Guild Association killed those demons like cutting grass," The woman said.

"Impossible. I know that we are not the strongest, but we are not that weak either. In fact, we are the strongest outside this tower. Just two dozen people doing all this? That doesn't make any sense!" The man replied.

They kept arguing and shouting at each other as they reached the bottom of the stairs. They could tell the floor was cleared based on the demons that got slaughtered on the floors. The blood was still warm, but not warm enough to be called fresh.

They took an hour's break and then continued running until they finally reached the tenth stairs. They then saw a slide made of ice on the left side of the stairs. They looked at each other and their childish instincts came out immediately.

"This is so fucking fun! Wooo!" The woman in white armor said as she slid down the ice. "So this is how they travel to the other floor! They're genius!" She shouted as she looked back, and everyone was either making a thrilled expression or a scared expression.

The moment they all crashed their landing and rolled over as they were hitting each other, they saw a giant black door with eyes on it. The eyes were bleeding with cut marks that cut their eyes into slices. They didn't know the tenth floor would be different from the rest since the only way to go was through that door.

"The door is open, let's go and check it out!" Leonard said as he stealthily ran to the door.

Everyone followed him and quietly went inside the massive hall, and they were all stunned by the presence of Kasael. A giant angel-like demon with two fiery wings, burning hairs, and a burning spear in each hand. They were shocked, but they were more shocked when they saw Agnez and the others standing on the side watching as Sven handled Kasael on his own.

"Really? Did we waste four days just for this? What a letdown," Sven sighed as he dodged the thrust of the spears like it was nothing. "Compared to Sigrid, you're nothing, seriously," Sven continued as he stopped the spears with his bare hands.

"This is no fun," Sven jumped toward Kasael and grabbed his scythe on his back. He slashed both Kasael's hands off. He spun in mid-air as he flew toward Kasael's head, and then cut his throat as the [Hellfire] started to burn Kasael's neck and head. "You can have him, Jeanne," Sven landed as he swung his scythe around to extinguish the fire from the blade as Jeanne suddenly appeared right above him and decapitated Kasael.

"Did they just toyed with a fucking Demon Lord?" The guy in leather armor asked.

"I don't care, they're fucking awesome!" Leonard said as his eyes were wide open and stared at Jeanne and Sven.
