Destroying My Own World-Chapter 7 - : Just An Introduction.

"Wow, I think I'm falling in love with you again," Lyneth said as she sat on the king-size bed with her legs crossed. She looked at Mykel who wore a new pair of suits and pants that he bought for a hundred thousand dollars. "I can see that your confidence sky-rocketing the moment you wear that," Lyneth continued as she stood up to put on a tie around Mykel's neck.

"Of course. I feel like myself now," Mykel answered and watched Lyneth put on the tie.

"I'm wondering about something, Mykel. Your novel, the Towers of Demon is popular, and are you not afraid or concerned that someone would notice that we, the characters of your novel are here in the real world?" Lyneth asked and gently rubbed the neatly tied tie around Mykel's neck.

"I know that, and I'll explain it to you later when the others are here," Mykel answered as he walked away to look himself in the mirror. "Also, the novel, I deleted it last night so there won't be anyone who can read it anymore," Mykel loved the suit and planned to buy another pair of it.

"Okay, I'll call the others," Lyneth said as she grabbed her phone.

Mykel went to the balcony and he looked at the familiar scenery that he missed when he was living in a penthouse. He looked down and it was peaceful, even the people were living like nothing happened to their country. He then glanced at the notification that had been appearing ever since he came to Nebraska.

[Goddess of Nightmare is watching you from up close]

[Goddess of Death and Offering is resting her head, thinking of a way to take your life]

[Goddess of Earth and Spirit is thinking to devour your body and soul]

[Goddess of Patroness hates to see you live comfortably]

[Goddess of Destruction patiently waits for your tragic demise]

"What do you want? Revenge? It wasn't the real you in the first place." Mykel said as he leaned on the railing and stared at the notification.

Mykel knew those Goddesses shared the same name, Mara, and it appeared that all of them got the same memories as Goddess Mara in the novel. He realized this time he was dealing with more than just one Mara, and thanks to the encounter he had with the messenger, he noticed that Gods were allowed to interfere.

[Goddess of Nightmare is scoffing and starts laughing]

[Goddess of Death and Offering is giggling and covering her mouth]

[Goddess of Earth and Spirit is rolling her eyes]

[Goddess of Patroness hates your naivety]

[Goddess of Destruction rubs her palms with a mischievous smile]

"You're free to bother me, but I'll remember this and will come for all of you," Mykel said as he looked at the sky with a smirk.

After he said that, there wasn't a single notification that appeared. He then went back inside he removed the suit and saw everyone had gathered in the living room with their fancy outfits and accessories.

"Should we change our appearance?" Jeanne suddenly asked Mykel. "I'm talking about who we are, and the possibility of them knowing us," Jeanne pointed out.

"So you don't like the appearance that I created?" Mykel asked as he gently tucked Jeanne's hair behind her left ear.

"No, that's not what I meant. You know what I meant, so please don't tease me," Jeanne was flustered and looked at Mykel.

"What are the odds of the survivors that know my novel? I think there are only a few of them, and I was doing it on purpose so they know your existence," Mykel answered as he went to the mini bar.

"On purpose?" Aurea asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Those who know about the story might know how to deal with the situation since the game, the demons, and their weaknesses are similar to the original story. So, I'm putting the bait so they would come to me and ask what's the meaning of this," Mykel answered as he grabbed an apple on the counter.

"And? What are you going to do? Make them our allies?" Rozan asked.

"No, I'm going to kill them all because they're going to be problems in the future if they're kept alive," Mykel answered and took a big bite of the apple. "But, I have a hunch it would be hard to do," Mykel continued as he chewed the apple.

"Harder than dealing with Asmond?" Elena asked as she sat down on the sofa.

"Oh, dealing with Asmond wasn't that hard. I barely tried since I was toying with him and only wanted him to suffer. This time, without the system and knowing the Gods might support those who know, I think it's a different case scenario," Mykel answered as he poured a glass of wine.

Jeanne and the others looked at each other with confused looks on their faces.

"Mykel, who's Asmond?" Jeanne asked with her eyebrows furrowed.

Mykel was about to drink his wine but took a shot pause when he forgot that he used the system to erase all the characters' memories about Earth and Asmond. He then realized why Mara said something about betrayal, it was because she knew that she was just a character and Mykel had killed her for no reason.

The only one that still remembered everything was Elena since she took back all the memories after Mykel gave the system to her. Lyneth also remembered everything since Elena didn't want Lyneth to forget all the precious memories with her gone when she was living on Earth.

"Just someone that I loathed, but he's gone now," Mykel answered without batting an eye.

"So, what's the plan now, boss?" Gunnar asked.

Mykel walked to the living room where everyone was, and then he stood behind the sofa where Lyneth and Elena were. He put his hands on Elena's shoulder and said, "The plan is to make ourselves the most influenced Awakeners in the world so that whenever they're in trouble, the first thought that comes to their minds is us."

"Influence you say? That's my specialty," Lyneth slowly lifted her head and looked up at Mykel. "Do you need my help? I have been doing nothing for the past two weeks," Lyneth asked with a smile.

"I know you would say that, so I'll leave a few tasks in your care," Mykel smiled and gently stroked Lyneth's cheek. "With that being said, should we make our own guild?" Mykel asked as he looked at the others with his right eyebrow raised.

"Make our own guild? Do you know how? Also, I don't think it would be that easy though," Aurea asked.

"Leave that to me. I'll ask Victor about it," Elena said.

Mykel and Lyneth looked at Elena with surprised expressions, but then Mykel entrusted that to her. On the other hand, Lyneth started to blabber and say something about Victor and what his real intention was. She was acting like a protective mother even though they both had been living for at least a hundred years.

"Mykel, there's something that I would like to ask," Jeanne said with a serious expression. "We would never question your decision, but I'm wondering if we are really fine. Your system is gone, and we are living in a new world with nothing but our experience while at the same time, we are being targeted by the Gods," Jeanne asked.

"What makes you think that my system is gone?" Mykel asked back. "If my system is gone, there shouldn't be a breakout every month. The demons shouldn't exist, and all of you shouldn't exist if my system is gone," Mykel explained. "My system is still running, but sacrificing a lot of things to protect itself. The system will be back, and once the time comes, we are going to turn the whole universe upside down," Mykel continued with a serious expression.

"When is it?" Jeanne asked.

"Just enjoy the life we have right now. There are a lot of things that you need to discover about this world. So, don't bother to think about it and let things flow," Mykel said as he walked away and grabbed his suit. "I guess that's enough talk for today. Let's head outside because we are going to show our faces to the public," Mykel continued.

They all went inside the elevator and silently waited to reach the lobby.

"Wait, hold on a second. If the system still manages the event, does that mean..." Rozan said.

"That's right. Since we are basically still in the introduction of the game which is to make the people adapt to the situation, the main event should be starting soon. The Tower of Gehenna," Mykel nodded his head as he fixed his suit. "And once we are in there, where that world belongs to me. The system should be up," Mykel continued.

They all looked at each other and were excited when they heard that.
