Destroying My Own World

"Wait, what? Do you guys have a matching tattoo? That's sick," Rozan asked as she looked at Mykel and Elena who only wore a sleeveless shirt and showed the tattoo on their right shoulder. "Should we all get a matching tattoo? Like something that only we have it?" Rozan asked and looked at the others.

"That's actually not a really bad idea. It makes us have some kind of bond that we or anyone else can't erase," Sven said as he nodded in agreement. "But what kind of tattoo though? I want something that looks really nice, and it doesn't have to be big, like maybe in our right wrist or something," Sven suggested.

Everyone was discussing the design of the tattoo because it interested everyone in the meeting room. Everyone was present except for Anathiel who had decided to stay in the second layer of hell with Amaryllis' clone.

"Let's talk about that later, for now let's listen to what Mykel has to say," Lyneth said as she looked at everyone.

Everyone went quiet and looked at Mykel with serious expressions.

"We have seen how the world is currently struggling to deal with the legions, but they always managed to deal with those after the Gods have decided to take things seriously now," Mykel said as he sat down on his chair. "More and more strong Chosen Ones appeared from left to right, and it's getting hard to deal with all of them at once," Mykel continued.

"The legions are slowly decreasing as you sent them out here. Should we continue and explore the third layer of hell to get more?" Jeanne asked.

"That would be the case if we can't recreate the demons from the second layers of hell," Mykel answered as he looked at Amaryllis. "How is it? Did you manage to recreate the demons?" Mykel asked Amaryllis.

"A thousand of finest legions of demons are ready to be deployed. I'm waiting for your order to release them and send them to Earth," Amaryllis answered.

Everyone was speechless when Amaryllis said there were a thousand of the legions. That would be at least five million strong demons, and they wondered who was actually more terrifying, Mykel or Amaryllis who could recreate everything she had registered.

"Perfect. Send half of them immediately," Mykel said without hesitation.

Amaryllis nodded and ordered the demons that she had recreated in the novel world to attack Earth. She opened portals around the world and sent half of them to Earth in just a blink of an eye.

"Done, and this time they won't be able to handle them easily, but the demons are killable as you have requested," Amaryllis pointed out.

"Now let them have it and don't send the other half yet since I want them to take a breather first. It's not fun to erase all the humankind in the hands of the demons," Mykel said as he turned on the TV so everyone could see.

All the channels had breaking news, and they were talking about the same thing about the sudden appearance of demons. The demons were swarming like bees, and destroyed the cities, even the reporters were killed during the airing. It was chaos all over the world, and everyone looked at Mykel with admiration and fear because he was truly playing God.

"This should be enough to warn the Gods that if they failed to protect Earth, their existence would disappear. Let's see how far they're going to help the humans," Mykel said as he watched the news.

"What about us? What are we going to do?" Aurea asked.

"Enter the third layer of hell. We will find Luciel and we have to find her before these people managed to stop the demon invasion," Mykel said as he stood up. "We will do the same thing, but this time we don't need the Kings and Dukes of Hell. We hunt them all after we know how to enter the fourth layer of hell," Mykel continued.

"That means we are going to face the Prince of Hell in the fourth layer of hell, right?" Sven asked.

"Yes. While the demons attack Earth, we attack hell and take everything from them," Mykel answered. "I want to get rid of all the pawns Lucifer has and make him powerless, just like last time. But, this time I'm not going to bring him on my side," Mykel said with a serious expression.

"The angels won't stay quiet if that's what happening," Jeanne said as she looked at Mykel.

"That's the point. We are doing this to make it happen," Mykel replied. "We are leaving in five, so prepare your stuff," Mykel said.

They all nodded and went to grab their stuff in their penthouses, only Elena, Amaryllis, Beldathiel, Lyneth, and Edith left who stayed in the meeting room.

"Mykel, bring Luciel back as soon as possible because I have a bad feeling about this," Beldathiel said.

"I know, that's why I'm doing this now. That also goes to the three of you," Mykel paused as he looked at Beldahtiel, Lyneth, and Edith. "Although we are fine here, Lucifer must have a plan under his sleeve to deal with us here. I want you to protect this place if something happens," Mykel said.

"We know, but as long as Beldathiel is here with us, that's more than enough, more than having Jeanne and Aurea here," Lyneth nodded with understanding.

Beldathiel's [Sloth] skill had been upgraded and she was the only one that managed to change her Deadly Sin skill. It had turned into [Inertia] which made the state of her surroundings or herself remained unchanged. It all happened when she felt grieved over Mykel's departure, and she spent all her time not moving a muscle, not even breathing.

Jeanne and Aurea told Mykel about Beldathiel's upgraded skill, and they were trying to fight her with that skill active. They couldn't even scratch her body, not even the hair on her arms could be cut or burned. Even Bhatmelec stopped the time with her [Chronokinesis] skill, Beldathiel still could move since her [Inertia] skill was superior to her. What surprised Mykel was when Elena couldn't do anything about Beldathiel's [Inertia] skill unless she used her full power that almost killed herself to destroy the [Inertia] skill.

Mykel took her skill because it was useful to him and would help him in the future. Although he knew that his life was in the Lord's hands, he wasn't worried about that and was more focused on fighting all the Lord's creations.

"We are good to go," Elena said as she looked at everyone who had come back to the meeting room.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Amaryllis teleported them to Paimon's castle, leaving Beldathiel, Lyneth, and Edith in the meeting room on their own.

Paimon, Balam, Purson, and Beleth were gathered under Amaryllis' order, and they went to the gate which was sealed with four locks. Each one of them held the key, and the keys weren't an object, but the keys were their souls. They were entrusted by Lucifer to rule the second layer, and if they wanted to leave, they had to use their souls as payment.

"No wonder Purson wanted to work with Uriel. They're not treated like kings, they're treated like slaves and prisoners," Vincze said as he watched the locks being unlocked.

"Being a demon isn't a privilege like humans. We are treated like a pawn and we are blindly following orders to the ones with higher ranks. It has been always like that, nothing new," Aurea answered as she got rid of the chains and the locks from the gate. "But I have to say that here is a lot worse than what we experienced," Aurea pointed out and then kicked the gate open.

A strong wind struck Aurea's face, and it was enough to freeze her hair. The temperature difference was so great that it created a thick mist in an instant. Aurea immediately spread her wings and dispersed the mist so she could see what was below the gate. She then saw a big stairs made of ice and it led to the lower floor.

"What floor is this?" Aurea asked Amaryllis.

"Third layer of hell, Gluttony," Amaryllis answered. "Where people are forced to eat ice that's too solid to bite, and too big to swallow. The longer it is inside their mouth, the more pain they feel because of the frostbite," Amaryllis explained.

"That doesn't sound nice," Sven said with his eyebrows raised.

"Really? Hell isn't nice? Wow, who would ever think of that!" Lillith said as she looked at Sven with a surprised expression.
