521 Chapter 520: Brought to life.
“What are we going to do now?” Jeanne asked.
Mykel brought Aurea back to life and she was naked with nothing covering her body. She went to her bed with her wings covering her body and grabbed her blanket, wrapped her body, and came back.
“There’s only one option which is to bring Mazikeen back to life,” Mykel answered as he looked at Aurea.
“And how are you doing to do that? Isn’t Mazikeen’s soul already devoured and turned into a new soul? Are you going to use the same method as back then?” Aurea asked with her arms crossed.
“Not exactly because Mazikeen is dead and so Agnez. I can bring them back to life if I want to,” Mykel answered as he looked at Mazikeen’s status screen and there was a [Deceased] right on her name. “It seems the system is bugged since she died outside the tower…” Mykel pointed out.
Everyone looked at each other and wondered what would happen if Mazikeen was brought back to life.
“If you bring Mazikeen back to life, doesn’t that mean the last memory she had was when you separated her from Agnez? And when you put her soul into that vessel?” Jeanne asked with curiosity.
“That’s right, and she would look at Aurea as if she was just a stranger. She didn’t know what happened after that and didn’t know the experiment was a success. She won’t remember the past months that had happened, and to be honest, she might be pissed if she knows the truth,” Mykel answered and explained it to everyone. “To put it simply, do you think you can accept that there’s a better version of you who took your life away?” Mykel asked.
“Doesn’t that mean it would be the same as Agnez?” Lillith asked.
“Yeah, if I brought her back to life and told her the truth, do you think she can accept it?” Mykel asked Lillith.
“No, I would be furious and I might think that you betrayed me,” Lillith shook her head and realized how scary it would be if she was in Agnez’s shoes. “So, you’re going to bring her back to life now?” Lillith asked.
“Not yet, I think it’s better if I go to the place she died. She should be in the Empyrean World, inside Luciel’s palace. I’ll go and pick her up, so I think it’s better for you guys to hide,” Mykel answered.
“Why?” Jeanne asked.
“Well, if there’s someone that she should be mad at is me. She shouldn’t know why I’m bringing her back to life, and I’m planning to kill her as soon as I brought her here,” Mykel answered.
Everyone looked at each other and thought maybe it was for the best. They didn’t want to partake in it if Mykel had decided to deal with it himself. They all nodded with understanding and went far away from the chamber, but Aurea was staying next to Mykel.
“Do you want to kill your old self?” Mykel asked as he looked at Aurea.
“Wouldn’t that be better?” Aurea asked back with her eyebrow raised.
Mykel hummed and nodded his head. “Alright. If that’s what you want.” Mykel said as he sighed and looked up. “I’ll be right back,” Mykel warped to the Empyrean world on his own, leaving Elena with Aurea in the chamber.
“Hm? What’s the honor for you to come here, Mykel?” Luciel asked when she saw Mykel suddenly come into her palace. She was talking with Belphegor and Beelzebub, and they were staring at him with curiosity.
“Well, I came for her,” Mykel said as he changed Mazikeen’s [Deceased] to [Alive].
Luciel raised her eyebrows and was surprised to see Mazikeen appear out of nowhere. She was about to ask Mykel why Mazikeen was there, but Mykel left before she could ask about it.
Mazikeen was still processing what had happened, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Aurea and Elena in front of her. She looked at them with suspicion since they were unfamiliar to her, and then she realized that she was back in her own world.
“What’s this? Why am I here?” Mazikeen looked at Mykel.
Mykel didn’t say a single word and Aurea suddenly dashed forward and punched Mazikeen right in the face. She was thrown away and hit the wall really hard that so she got buried in the wall. Her face was broken, but she slowly regenerated her wounds as she slowly crawled out of the wall.
“Mykel?! What the fuck?!” Mazikeen asked with a confused expression.
“Mykel didn’t care about you anymore. Your job here is to die,” Aurea appeared right next to her and ripped Mazikeen’s arms off.
Mazikeen who realized that she was in danger, turned herself into her true form. She grew larger as she flew away and grew back her arms in an instant. But suddenly Aurea was already in front of her and to her surprise, she saw six black and white wings behind Aurea’s back.
Mazikeen threw a punch at Aurea with all her might, but Aurea blocked it with her small left hand like it was nothing to her.
“Who are you?!” Mazikeen asked as she glared at Aurea.
“Me? I’m you, but better,” Aurea answered as she twisted Mazikeen’s arm and ripped it apart. She then flew in and choked Mazikeen in the neck. “You’re no longer needed here, Mazikeen,” Aurea smirked as she threw Mazikeen back to the ground.
Mazikeen knew she was no match for Aurea, but that wasn’t the main reason why she was bothered. She was confused as to what Aurea meant by saying that she was her, but better.
“What’s wrong? Without Agnez you’re nothing, huh?” Aurea asked as she stood on top of Mazikeen’s chest.
“What do you mean by that?” Mazikeen asked as she tried to push Aurea off her body, but Aurea was too powerful that her wings supported her and made her immovable.
Aurea smirked and slowly changed her face into Agnez, and then she changed her face into Mazikeen. She laughed when she saw Mazikeen’s shocked expression, and she never thought she would laugh at her own face.
“You’re telling me that you’re Agnez?” Mazikeen asked and she looked desperate.
“Yes and no. I’m you, I’m Agnez, but I’m no longer both. I’m a new entity as the result of the soul merging that Mykel did back then. You’re dead, and Agnez is dead. My name is Aurea, the name that Agnez and you agreed on,” Aurea smiled as she looked down on Mazikeen.
“Then why Mykel brought me to life if she already achieved what he wanted?” Mazikeen asked.
“Oh, we need you to die again so we can clear this tower,” Aurea answered. “You were brought to life so you can die again,” Aurea chuckled mischievously.
“What? What’s that supposed to mean?!” Mazikeen asked and she looked panicked. She then looked around and looked Mykel in the eye who was standing next to Elena. “Mykel! What’s the meaning of this?!” Mazikeen asked.
Mykel didn’t say anything and only stared back at her with a cold expression.
“Stop barking. It’s over for you and I’m going to kill you now,” Aurea said and used her wings to cut off Mazikeen’s arms. She then used [Soul Siphon] and sucked Mazikeen’s soul out of her body.
“Mykel!” Mazikeen screamed her lungs out as she felt her soul leaving her body so slowly and painfully.
Aurea took Mazikeen’s soul and saved it in her body, but since Mazikeen was still counted as alive. Aurea didn’t have another choice but to destroy Mazikeen’s soul and turn it into brute strength. The notification then appeared, and they cleared the hundredth floor of the Behemoth Tower.
“Who’s that, father?” Elena asked since she hadn’t seen Mazikeen before.
“A nobody,” Mykel answered without hesitation.

“Well, it’s done now. We should go and meet my father. We wasted so much time in here,” Aurea sighed and looked at Mykel.
Mykel didn’t say anything and nodded his head.
Jeanne and the others came and they all entered the red portal to the hundred-first floor. The moment they arrived there, a strong shockwave hit their faces and sent them all down on their backs except for Elena, Mykel, Aurea, and Jeanne.
“What the fuck… is that?” Rozan asked as he looked at the gigantic leg in the distance nothing else could be seen because of the dark clouds that were covering the rest of the body.
“That’s my father, Behemoth,” Aurea answered.
