Destroying My Own Novel

“There isn’t a single member of the Fraternity Association that matched with what miss Keysha described. I think she really didn’t remember anything unless she look at thousands of Awakeners in our database,” Glen said as he looked at Asmond who started to doubt that the Awakeners Keysha saw were right.

“The chance of finding them is close to impossible. It’s like searching for a needle in a haystack. We have reduced our search to the Awakeners who have criminal records, but none of them matched what she said,” Silas sighed as he massaged his nose bridge. “Let’s take a break for now, we have been sitting for hours,” Silas looked at Asmond and hoped he would agree with his suggestion.

“No! We need to keep finding the culprits! I’m not going to stop until I got those bastards!” Rufus yelled.

Asmond, Silas, and Glen looked at Rufus and already knew words wouldn’t work on him anymore. Asmond had had enough of his hot-temper personality, and so he decided to leave with Silas and Glen to take a short breather.

“Where are you guys going?! Are you seriously going to stop when the culprits are still out there?!” Rufus asked in disbelief and glared at them.

“We’re not, we just need a break. I know how you feel, but we also need to eat and rest. We will think of a way while we eat, so if you want to stay go ahead because we’re hungry,” Asmond answered.

Rufus kept glaring at them, and he looked so pissed that they were so easily giving up. He then kept looking at the database without blinking his eyes.

“We don’t know if they’re really Awakeners or not because there’s a chance those culprits are just pretending. Having a weapon to prove they’re Awakeners is really bad because normal people could pretend to be one,” Glen said as he stared at the floors in the elevator. “Should we strict the regulation of holding a weapon in public areas? We don’t know how many innocent people fell for this, and who knows that miss Keysha might be not the only one who experienced it,” Glen continued and looked at Asmond.

“With the current situation we have? I don’t think it’s possible. We are still cautious because of the Demonic Cult. We can’t let other Awakeners or even the people die because of that,” Silas responded and thought the same thing as Glen, but then realized the current situation they had. “There’s a chance the culprits are the Demonic Cult if I think about it,” Silas looked at Glen through the reflection on the elevator doors.

“You both are right,” Asmond sighed as more problems arose in the cities that the Fraternity Association had to deal with. “The question is how are we going to handle all this? I believe this responsibility can only be burdened on the Fraternity Association. I’ll ask the senate to investigate this with me,” Asmond continued.

Silas and Glen were concerned about how troublesome it was and how Asmond had to deal with it by himself all the time.

Asmond nodded his head with understanding. “By the way, how’s your investigation about those people, Glen?” Asmond looked at him over his shoulder.

“It’s as we thought. They’re indeed suspicious, and they had never been into the towers that much compared to us. I still have no idea why they’re that strong, so I’ll dig deeper,” Glen answered.

“Just be careful,” Asmond said.

“I will,” Glen nodded his head with his eyes closed.

(In the Leowa World)

Mykel watched as the island exploded right in front of him, and the explosion was so big that it almost looked like an atomic bomb. The shockwave was enough to flatten the nearby islands, but Mykel created a wind barrier to protect the mainland from it.

“Looks like another failure,” Lucifer was sitting on the edge of the cliff and stared at the explosion like it was a firework for him. “How many times have they failed?” Lucifer asked as he watched Angra yawn and enjoyed his nap time on Mykel’s shoulder.

“This will be the hundredth time,” Mykel answered as he watched Gaia, Nyx, Deviatris, and Shelly fly toward the mainland. “I think the problem lies within the material. I know that the Empyrium is a very limited and one-of-a-kind mineral, but that’s the only material that can withstand a powerful soul like Hanessi since Jeanne’s sword is made out of it,” Mykel looked at Lucifer.

“You saw it yourself when you tried to extract the Empyrium from the Empyrean World. It was only twice the size of your fist, and that took you a whole day to gather all of them even with the Coelumkinesis skill to control everything that exist in the Empyrean,” Lucifer replied and he believed there was nothing left, and even if there was still some, it might take a while to gather.

Mykel used the Empyrium and turned it into the sword that Agnez possessed after she broke the Dainsleif sword. The origin of the Empyrium was still a mystery, but Lucifer believed it had something to do with the divine power of his siblings. Their divinity affected all living and non-living organisms around them and purified them into something that was beyond anything else. Now that all the divinity had disappeared, the Empyrium became scarce.

“There’s no other choice, I have to gather them with Luciel’s help,” Mykel said.

“It’s impossible, Mykel,” Gaia said as she landed right next to him. “If we put life force on the gemstones, they could withstand it to some extent. Two hundred and twenty-four worth of life was the maximum amount before it exploded. A demi-God alone is worth at least three hundred life force of a mortal, and an Archdemon’s life force would be four hundred,” Gaia tried to calculate the amount of life force and energy.

“I guess doing experiments in this world is a bad idea since there won’t be any island left if we keep doing it here. Let’s move to the Empyrean World,” Mykel said and then warped all of them to the Empyrean World.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

Luciel was having a meeting with Belphegor when Mykel suddenly appeared with Nyx, Lucifer, Gaia, Deviatris, and Shelly. She was confused as to why they were there.

“Yes?” Luciel asked as she stood up from her throne.

“I need your help to gather the Empyrium, but before that, there’s something that I would like to try first and I need your power for this,” Mykel answered.

Luciel nodded with understanding and then followed Mykel to the outside.

Everyone was watching those two standing in front of each other, and had no idea what was Mykel planning. Mykel wanted to try something about creating a blast of divine energy since he had become a Celestial being like Luciel. The only way to create a burst of divine energy was by trying to release them against each other and that might create a massive explosion like a supernova.

“Why don’t you do that with my father if that’s what you want?” Luciel asked.

“Did you forget that Lucifer’s body is hollow? He doesn’t have a life force and energy inside his body. He won’t be able to release divine energy if he doesn’t have it in the first place,” Mykel explained.

Luciel sighed and nodded her head with understanding.

“I don’t know what you’re planning to do, but let’s get it done because I still have unfinished business with Belphegor,” Luciel said as she spread her translucent feather wings. “You want to spread the divine power to all the land in the Empyrean World, right? Let’s do it from above,” Luciel continued and then flew up high into the sky.

Mykel followed her from behind and then they both floated right in front of each other as they watched thousands of islands below them. He then offered his hand to Luciel, and she held his hand firmly.

“Let’s do it,” Mykel said as he started giving his life force to Luciel.

Luciel gave her life force to Mykel, and their energies collided which made the energies go against each other. Their hands started to feel heavy, hot, and cold at the same time. Until suddenly they saw a blinding white light appear from between their hands.

“For… how long… are we going to do this…” Luciel asked as she slowly weakened.

“Until the energy can’t bear it anymore,” Mykel answered as he started to sweat and his hand trembled.

“It’s only been half an hour, but the energy is already accumulating that much? I think it’s not safe for both of you, Deviatris and Shelly,” Gaia said as she looked at both of them.

The night sky turned bright, even brighter than the sun, but it didn’t produce any heat. Deviatris and Shelly were weakened by the ray. Even Gaia and Nyx skins started to itch because of it.

“It’s going to burst, and I’m sorry to say this,” Lucifer said as he turned around and looked at Deviatris and Shelly. “You’re going to die,” Lucifer continued and then a divine blast happened right after.

In less than a second both Deviatris and Shelly’s existence got erased by the divine blast. The islands and every organism started to grow, and the trees’ roots started to appear at the bottom of the floating islands.

Luciel collapsed and lost half of her body and wings because of the blast. Mykel was still conscious, but he lost half of his body as well. Fortunately, he spent billions of Arcana Coins to recover all the damage and then carried Luciel to the ground.

“Let’s see if it worked,” Mykel said after he gently put Luciel down.

Mykel activated [Coelumkinesis] and tried to extract the Empyrium on the ground. To his surprise, there was a worth of Empyrium on each island that when he combined them all together, it was as big as a mountain.

“It’s time to work,” Mykel looked at Gaia.

Gaia chuckled and nodded.
