Destroying My Own Novel

“You guys have to focus on leveling up your level and skills. It’s not your responsibility to handle the current situation here because the real threat will happen in a few months if you guys can’t clear the fifteenth floor in each tower,” Lyneth explained when Gunnar and the others came to see her and asked about the situation in the city.

Gunnar and the others stood there and listened to Lyneth’s explanation except for Agnez and Lillith who weren’t bothered by the situation.

“Why are you guys still here?” Mykel asked as he stared at them.

“Come on, don’t waste your time by thinking. It’s as what Miss Lyneth said, it’s not our responsibility as an Awakener,” Agnez said as she walked toward the door.

All of them followed Agnez from behind and left the office.

Lyneth sat down on the sofa and let out a big sigh. “Day by day, the situation worsens,” she said as she crossed her arms and stared blankly at the glass wall. “Now the casualties not only the Awakeners from those two factions but also from those who tried to hunt the down. Are they finally had enough and decided to fight back?” she continued as she leaned her head on the sofa.

“It seems like it and now the hunts are slowly spreading widely,” Mykel answered as he looked at the notification that Loki sent him.

“Don’t you think you should go out there and take care of this matter, Mykel? If this keeps going, I’m afraid the Demonic Cult will grow bigger and bigger. Even right now they’re already a huge threat to the governments and us as well,” Lyneth said as she looked at Mykel with a worried expression.

“I could but what do you want me to do? I have other things to think about,” Mykel answered as he looked at Lyneth.

Mykel looked at the bright sky and he didn’t worried about it at all as long as the sun and the moon didn’t get covered by void clouds. He was a bit worried at first when he was planning this since Mara could interfere and punish him but nothing had happened since the chaos happened. As long as this chaos was about the Constellations showing their hatred and anger toward Nyx for scheming with Lucifer, he thought that Mara wouldn’t interfere at all.

“So we can do nothing?” Lyneth asked while she rested her head on her hand on the top of the sofa.

“We have sent people to hunt down those Awakeners, right? They’re the best people we have and I don’t think they will be able to kill them. Sooner or later they will lose because they’re against hundreds of millions of people,” Mykel answered.

Lyneth sighed and then they heard a knock on the door.

“Miss Lyneth, Mister Mykel, Miss Zeth is here,” Erica said as she peek her head at the door.

“Zeth is here? Why?” Lyneth asked and furrowed her eyebrows as she stared at Erica with confusion.

“I’m the one who’s asking her to come here,” Mykel answered as he stood up and approached Lyneth. “Let her in,” he said and sat down next to Lyneth.

Erica nodded and then she looked at Zherthlsh.

Zherthlsh entered the office and she smiled at Lyneth then sat down in front of them.

“The reason why I brought her here is that she’s going to work for us from today onward,” Mykel said as he pointed his thumb at Zherthlsh. “To be exact, she’s here to work for you,” he continued.

Lyneth raised her eyebrows and looked at both of them while Zherthlsh smiled and nodded her head. “She’s going to work for me? But why?” she asked with a bit of confusion.

“Knowing the current situation, she’s going to be your personal bodyguard since Lillith ended up joining the team. She’s not an Awakener but she’s strong enough to make everyone fall to her knees,” Mykel answered as he looked at Lyneth.

“I see, then I will be in your care, Miss Zeth,” Lyneth said as she looked at Zherthlsh.

Zherthlsh nodded her head. “I have heard a lot of things about you from Mykel and I will protect you with all my life,” she replied.

The reason why Zherthlsh was in the room with Lyneth and Mykel was because of his request. Of course, the request wasn’t only benefited Mykel but also benefited Zherthlsh and that was why she agreed to his request.

Lyneth brought Zherthlsh around the building while Mykel was following them from behind. For a demon, she really had good taste in fashion that it lifted up her beauty and charm.

“This will be my schedule and I hope it’s not going to bother you, Zeth, because I’m quite a busy person,” Lyneth said as Erica showed Zherthlsh the schedule on the book that she was holding.

“It’s okay, I’m not bothered since I have agreed on this,” Zherthlsh answered with a gorgeous smile on her face that was enough to make Lyneth and Erica flustered because of her beauty. “Can I ask you a favor, Lyneth?” she asked.

“Yes?” Lyneth replied with her eyebrows raised.

“Can I get a similar outfit like Mykel? I think it fits me more if I wear something like that than wearing this dress since I don’t want your beauty to fade because of my presence,” Zherthlsh asked as she pointed to Mykel’s black shirt, tie, blazer, and trousers.

Lyneth chuckled and nodded with understanding. “I can do that but we need to check your sizes so it would look good on you,” she answered. “We can do that now if you want to since I’m free today,” she continued as she looked at the schedule in Erica’s book.

“Perfect,” Zherthlsh said as she smiled.

The sun was setting, more and more Awakeners died because of the chaos. He looked at the notification from Hera and she brought good news to him. The point of the plan wasn’t to directly attack Nyx as he said during the meeting, the purpose of the chaos was to make all the Constellations from the Tower and Death factions leave and move to a different faction.

Thousands of Gods and Goddesses left the factions because of the situation and it kept rising. If there were no members left or not enough members, their status as the head of one of the Major Arcanas would be removed and will be replaced by a new God or Goddess.

Knowing the situation, Nyx didn’t want her to lose her seat in the Heptagon. When she didn’t meet the requirement to have a seat in the Heptagon she would ask her son, Thanatos to transfer all his members to the Tower Arcana faction. That being said, Thanatos’ position in the Heptagon would be endangered, and when that moment come, Hel would rise with Hera, Loki, and the others’ help and then replace him in the Heptagon.

“It’s still far away, but this is a good sign,” Mykel said to himself in his office.

[The Goddess of Vengeful is nodding her head in agreement]

[The Trickster is watching the situation carefully]

[The God of Wine wants to have a drink with you]

“Oh, you’re still here? I thought you already left,” Lyneth asked after she entered his office with Zherthlsh.

“I just want to have a moment for myself to think, that’s all,” Mykel answered as he kept staring at the city.

“I see, well then, I will go home first. See you later, Mykel,” Lyneth said as she grabbed her bag. “You can go home as well, Zeth, see you tomorrow,” she said with a smile on her face.

Zeth only nodded and smiled back at Lyneth.

Both Mykel and Zherthlsh listened to the sound of the lift doors being closed, she then approached Mykel and stood next to him. “How was it? You had your fun?” Mykel asked as he glanced at Zherthlsh.

“What’s the point of having fun if I don’t have anyone to share it with,” Zherthlsh answered as her eyes turned red to look at the city.

“It should be enough by now, right? Why don’t you do it now?” Mykel asked.

“That’s why I’m here, I want to bring you with me,” Zherthlsh answered and then grabbed Mykel’s shoulder.

Mykel was teleported into the forest with Zherthlsh standing next to him.

“Come on,” Zherthlsh said as she walked to the front.

Mykel followed Zherthlsh from behind and he started to smell a pungent smell that came from in front of him. They left the forest and ended up in a vast field with nothing but a giant hole in the middle.

Mykel squinted his eyes and looked at the corpses of the Awakeners that died during the chaos piled up like trash. “How many are those?” he asked.

“A thousand, at least,” Zherthlsh said as she walked to the edge of the hole and transformed herself into her demon form.

Zherthlsh grabbed the [Dagger of Sacrifice] and cut her own wrist, she let her blood fall on the corpses below her. The screams of those people’s souls could be heard in the silent night and it was a bit eerie to listen to.

The corpses started to burn and turned into ashes while Mykel watched the headless corpses below him. After all the corpses turned into ashes, something was moving from below the pile of ashes, purple skeleton wings could be seen and then a long dark purple hair with long horns appeared.

A demon that looked similar to Zherthlsh went to the surface of the ashes.

“It’s been a while, sister Vixelleth,” Zherthlsh said with a big smile on her face and her arms crossed.

Another demon lord had been summoned and it wasn’t just any demon lord but the daughter of Demon King Azrael himself.

Vixelleth turned around with her glowing yellow eyes and stared at Mykel and Zherthlsh.

“Zherthlsh?” Vixelleth asked with her soothing voice and resting face.
