Destroying My Own Novel
chapter-544-30041322

Mykel warped everyone to District 13 just in case something unexpected happened. He wanted to make sure there would be a safe place and that was to enter the tower. But the moment they arrived at the Lucifer Tower, the tower got covered by Void Clouds.

The whole Earth had been covered by Void Clouds, the Earth had turned into a Void realm itself. With that being said, she had the power over the world she took with it and allowed her to do whatever she wanted with it. Mykel knew that the time had come, the final move that he had built ever since he entered the world of his novel.

[Goddess of All has requested the system]

[The User's [Admin] skill level is sufficient to interfere with the request]

[Would you like to interfere with the request?]

[Yes] [No]

Mykel tapped the [No] button because he didn't want Mara to know that he was powerless in her presence.

[All of your skills have been disabled in the Void Clouds under Goddess of All request]

[Your [Admin] is too high to be disabled]

It was the same feeling and he felt like being crushed by the pressure from the sky. Both Lucifer and Bhatmelec disappeared because they were a part of his skill. It wasn't just him, but Jeanne and the others felt the same thing, and they were confused and anxious at the same time.

Mykel then checked his status screen and saw that his skills were grayed out and a bit transparent. He then looked at the word next to his name, and it was [Disabled]. He tapped on it and saw a notification in front of him that allowed him to change it back to normal.

Jeanne and the others looked at the notification that their skills had been disabled and weakened to the state like they were ordinary human beings. This time they were the ones who felt powerless and were anxious about what would happen next.

They all looked at Mykel because they were worried that the plan had failed. But when they looked at Mykel's expression, he was smirking and didn't show any fear. That was enough to make them feel a bit at ease, but they wondered why he was so calm and collected.

"What's going to happen now?" Aurea asked Mykel with a worried expression.

"Lilly, do you remember what you saw in Edith's vision?" Mykel asked without looking back at her.

Lillith's pupils shrunk and realized that the vision that she saw and the scenery that she was seeing right now were the same. She realized that the vision did come true and knew what was going to happen next.

"Yes. We are going to fight Asmond and the Awakeners. Lastly, we are all going to die except for Jeanne, and that includes you, Mykel," Lillith answered and she looked scared.

Everyone looked at Lillith and then looked at Mykel because they never thought the day would come. They forgot about the vision, and they thought it wouldn't come true because Mykel was invincible and could create his own path.

"Mykel, is this vision something that you have been trying to recreate?" Rozan asked with a curious look.

"No, it's quite the opposite," Mykel turned around and looked at Rozan. "The vision is the result of my own path and action that I chose," Mykel answered.

"If this vision is powerful enough to see your future, who gave that skill to Edith in the first place if it can predict it? If there's a God who's powerful enough to see your future, who and why that God didn't join hands with you?" Rozan asked again and he was so confused about Edith's [Oracle] skill.

Mykel went silent for a moment, but then he chuckled which surprised the others.

"The one who gave Edith's Oracle skill is someone powerful enough to be standing side by side with me. And you're wrong, that God is and has always been with me this whole time," Mykel answered with a smile because that God was himself, he was the author who gave Edith that power.

"Then, does that mean our death is inevitable?" Rozan asked.

Mykel smiled and scoffed. "What are you so afraid of? Death? Everyone here has experienced it once or twice, what makes you think another death will change anything?" Mykel asked with his eyebrows raised. "Don't worry about that. You have chosen to follow me until this moment, and do you think I would let my precious Recipients die without having to taste glory and eternal happiness?" Mykel smirked and he said it with confidence.

They were quite relieved when they heard that, but that didn't mean they weren't anxious anymore. They still had a challenge that they needed to overcome, and that was to fight Awakeners without any skill.

"What am I going to do? I have lost my magic, and I can't summon my babies..." Rozan asked and he looked anxious.

"That's not a problem at all," Mykel sat down on the rubble and lit his cigarette. "You have the Thunderbolt, you can still use that," Mykel answered.

Rozan looked at the Thunderbolt in his hand and then tried to summon lightning with that. The Thunderbolt started to spark and shot a chain of lightning that destroyed the rubble in front of him. He felt relieved that he could rely on it, and he believed with that alone, he could fight all the Awakeners.

"If our skills are disabled, does that also mean Asmond and the others got their skills disabled?" Sven asked.

"Of course, not. Mara is their Benefactor, and she can choose who she wants to disable. So we are at disadvantage right now," Mykel answered as he puffed the smoke. "We are going to lose, that's what going to happen, but that doesn't mean you won't try your best, right?" Mykel asked.

Jeanne and the others looked at each other, and they could only rely on each other. They all nodded their heads and since they had been walking the same path, they got each other's back no matter what happened.

"So what are we going to do now, boss?" Gunnar asked.

"We wait," Mykel answered as the hot wind struck his face and he blankly stared at the ground. "We are going to wait for the main protagonist to appear," Mykel continued with a smile.

"Main protagonist? Are we in a novel or something?" Rozan chuckled and found it funny.

Mykel glanced at him and chuckled quietly.

(In District 10)

Roxanne and the others went back to the bunker to check on Asmond to see if he was awake or not. It had been two days since the Constellations came to Earth, and he was still unconscious. They had so many things to tell him, especially the eerie dark purple clouds that covered the sky.

It was as Mykel said, they weren't affected by Mara's authority and still had their skills. Although they were nothing compared to Gunnar and the others back then, now, they were far stronger than Jeanne.

Asmond slowly opened his eyes and heard the sound of people talking around him. He glanced to his left and saw people eating, and then he glanced to his right and saw people were chilling and sleeping. He realized that he was inside a bunker, and as soon as he sat up, Roxanne and the others were walking toward him.

"Asmond! How are you feeling?" Roxanne asked as she hurriedly walked toward him.

"I'm glad that you guys are fine," Asmond smiled weakly.

Roxanne and the others were in tears to see how happy he was even though he looked so weak after bringing them back to life. They gathered around him and thanked him and they felt lucky to be able to follow him.

"So, what happened while I was unconscious?" Asmond asked.

They all went quiet and their expressions turned grim instantly, but before they could say anything the void clouds filled the bunker. They were scared by it, but when Asmond looked at the clouds, it was similar to what he had.

"Asmond Redfeld, I have been waiting for you," Mara's voice echoed throughout the bunker

"Goddess Mara?" Asmond asked.

Mara showed herself and appeared from the clouds, she was so beautiful that they were too scared to look her in the eye. They all lowered their heads with their hearts pounding really fast.

"How are you feeling, Asmond?" Mara asked with a gentle smile.
