Destroying My Own World-Chapter 44 - : Best friend.
"This city looks so alive that I wouldn’t believe it if someone told me this city used to be a dead city a month ago," Lazarus said as he looked at the city where everyone lived normally.
"The power of money, and we all know where it came from," Shanka replied as he walked past Lazarus. "By the way, are those cars parked outside for us?" Shanka asked as he looked at the SUVs through the glass wall.
"There’s only one way to find out," Darius answered and walked out of the airport.
They were surrounded by reporters and got bombarded with questions that they couldn’t hear because of the overlapping voices. Magnus and his team ignored reporters while the others used that opportunity to gain more recognition and fame.
"Ah, Miss Edith, are you here to pick us up?" Magnus asked after he managed to get through the crowds.
"Yes, and please get inside. The reporters and the paparazzi are quite wild here," Edith answered with a gentle smile.
Magnus chuckled and nodded his head as he walked toward one of the SUVs. He and his team used ten of the SUVs since he brought fifty people with him.
Everyone went to Rebirth Guild’s second building which was next to headquarters, the building which was where Mykel and the others lived. They were welcomed with a feast and endless amounts of every type of alcohol. It reminded them of when they were at Alfredo’s castle, and they enjoyed their time there as well.
They spent the whole day drinking and partying since they had planned to explore the portal tomorrow morning. Everyone had a great day and all of them stayed the night there as if they were on vacation. They didn’t have a single worry about tomorrow’s hunt.
The morning came, and they all departed to Montana which was more than a day by car. They were fine about it since they all had never visited the United States, so they could use it to look around.
Although they were confident about the hunt, they couldn’t be so sure about it because they didn’t know if they were strong enough. Mykel decided to send everyone on his team except for Elena, Lyneth, and Edith into the portal to watch over them. They didn’t complain, instead, they all appreciated it since it made them feel at ease.
James and the others were going to join them as well since they were a part of the Guilds of the World. They waited for the others in Montana as they hunted some demons to warm up and prepare themselves.
"I thought you didn’t want to join them because you don’t want to, but to think it’s because of this," Mykel said as he looked at the tattoo shop in front of him.
"Well, I already have some ideas and designs, and planned on putting them on my body today," Elena answered as she looked at her phone. "This place is where you got all your tattoos, right?" Elena looked at Mykel in excitement.
"Yes, and I never thought they were still alive," Mykel answered as he nodded his head. "Let’s head in then. I want to see if the owner is still the same," Mykel continued and walked inside the tattoo shop.
The bell rang when Mykel entered the shop, and when he looked inside, the place was the same as he remembered. Suddenly a woman walked out of the corner with tattoos all over her body, and she was shocked when she looked at Mykel. She then hurriedly ran toward him with a huge grin on her face and jumped into his arms.
"Wow, I would never think you would come here again, Mykel," The woman said as she chuckled in disbelief. "How are you? Well, I suppose you’re living very comfortably now," she continued and slowly walked back.
"Well, sooner or later I would come to visit. You’re still as beautiful as the last time I saw you, Helen. I’m glad that you’re alive," Mykel answered and gave Helena a gentle smile that surprised Elena.
"I never thought you were also into an older woman, Mykel," Elena said as she looked at the woman who looked a bit older than Mykel.
Helen and Elena stared each other in the eye, and they both looked confused. Helen was confused about who the woman next to Mykel was, and Elena was confused about who that woman in front of Mykel was to be that close to him.
"Your new girlfriend? She looks gorgeous," Helen asked as she pointed her thumb at Elena.
"No, my little sister," Mykel answered.
"Huh? Do you have a little sister like this? Why you never told me about her? I thought were best friends," Helen asked and she looked disappointed as she frowned.
"There’s a reason why I never told you about her and brought her to you. You would pounce on her immediately," Mykel answered.
"Fair enough, but you slept with my sisters back then. Well, I was the one who introduced them to you in the first place, so it was my fault I guess since I know what kind of a man you are," Helen said as she sighed.
"Are they here now?" Mykel asked.
"They died the day the demon invasion happened," Helena answered. "I don’t want to ruin the mood by talking about them. Anyway, I’m Helen, Mykel’s tattoo artist and best friend," Helena continued and smiled gently at Elena.
"Elena, Mykel’s sister," Elena answered and she was surprised that they both had similar names.
"What a beautiful name. So? I know you’re here not for just a small talk. Are you going to get another tattoo?" Helen asked as she looked at Mykel’s body which appeared a lot taller than the last time she remembered.
"I am," Elena said.
"Hmm? But you have such a beautiful skin. Are you sure you want to stain it with ink?" Helen asked as she frowned.
"It’s fine, I want to have some, like what Mykel has," Elena answered.
"How adorable," Helena chuckled. "Come, let’s do some drawing!" Helen smiled as she pointed at the door which was her office.
Helena drew the art that Elena wanted to put on her chest which was flowers. Helena told Elena everything about her, she was thirty-eight years old and she had known Mykel for five years. She knew almost everything about Mykel from how nerdy and skinny he was until now. She also knew about Sasha and what had happened to her, she was the only one who had been trying to help Mykel, but he didn’t want any of it.
"Alright! One down, what else do you want me to draw?" Helen asked as she looked at Elena.
"That one, do you think it would look good on my neck?" Elena asked as she pointed at one of the drawings that was framed and displayed on the wall.
"Hmm, since you have a long neck just like Mykel, anything would look good," Helen answered as she stared at the art "Anything else you want?" Helen asked.
"I think that’s all for now. When they will be ready?" Elena asked.
"Honey, I should be the one asking you that question because I’m ready whenever you are," Helen answered with a flirtatious smirk.
"I’m ready, let’s do it," Elena said with excitement.
They all went to the next room, and Elena suddenly removed her shirt and bra which startled Helen.
"Honey, Mykel is here?! You shouldn’t take off your shirt like that!" Helen said with a shocked expression.
"Why? Mykel has seen every inch of my body, and I’m fine with showing my boobs to him," Elena answered.
"Mykel. I never thought you would go that far! You shouldn’t do that!" Helen said as she turned around to look at Mykel.
"I’m not that sick, Helen. Just start working, I won’t look at her either," Mykel replied as he put his hand on top of Helen’s head and forced her to face the front.
Elena lay down and Helen started inking Elena’s cleavage and upper boobs carefully. Helen was surprised that Elena didn’t flinch or groan in pain as if she didn’t feel a thing. She then focused on making the best tattoos since each art of her work was a one-in-a-lifetime thing.
"I still couldn’t believe this city is safe now. I used to be stressed out when I lived in the bunker," Helen said as she kept inking Elena’s body. "Who would have thought I could reopen my shop again," Helen continued.
"You lived in the bunker?" Mykel asked and he seemed interested in that story. "Do you know Anzel Rasmussen?" Mykel asked again before Helen could answer the first question. freeweɓnøvel.com
"Yeah, for a whole year. And yes, I know that kid. He’s such a nice kid even though he looked gloomy before he was awakened," Helen answered. "Why do you ask? Do you know him?" Helen asked without looking back.
"Something like that. Did he ever mention my name?" Mykel asked.
"Yeah, he did many times. He told us about you as a famous author. Of course, I know that already, but he was so cute because he looked like one of your fans," Helen answered.
Elena and Mykel stared at each other, and then they both looked at Helen with curiosity. Mykel then slowly walked toward Helen without making a sound, and Helen didn’t realize that Mykel was already right behind her. Elena looked at Mykel and she was a bit sad since she had just started getting her first tattoo.
"What else did he tell you?" Mykel asked as he looked down at Helen with his hands on his back.
"Holy shit! You scared me!" Helen jolted from her seat, but she managed to put the needle away from Elena. "Nothing else. What’s wrong?" Helen asked and she looked at Mykel weirdly.
Mykel could tell that she was telling the truth since he knew her so well.
"Nothing," Mykel smiled.
