Destroying My Own World-Chapter 364: Backstabbers.

Victoria and the others were kneeling in the throne room after they finished examining the curse. They kept the curse hidden from everyone because they needed an upper hand, something they could use against Elestria and Mykel.

"Tell me what you discovered in the rift," Elestria crossed her legs as she rested her cheek on her fist.

"Sabel had a theory about the truth between the demons and Gods. That theory had been confirmed by the demon that we encountered," Victoria answered with her head lowered. "The theory of the existence that we called demons and Gods and why we got involved in this," she added.

Mykel was standing next to Elestria’s throne and looked at them, realizing they had found out about his identity. He wasn’t bothered by it since it was still speculation and something they couldn’t prove. Also, he noticed the curse inside Victoria’s body and what happened to the curse.

Sabel started to explain the situation between Gods and demons which both existences were actually the same. The reason for why they separated themselves and why they killed each other was still unknown. More questions appeared when the truth was revealed, and it was all up to Elestria to keep the information to herself or publish it to the public.

"You all left unharmed? How is that possible?" Elestria asked as she realized Victoria and the others were hiding something from her. "I was so sure that some of you might die in there, but seeing all of you in here makes me wonder," she added.

"We were under the demon’s mercy. We don’t know why, but she let us all leave," Victoria answered.

"So basically she knew you all were harmless, and it was pointless to kill you? I never thought a demon would be so honest," Elestria saw Victoria’s aura and knew she was telling the truth. "But I need more information than just this. You all should enter the rift again tomorrow because we need to find her weakness. Since you can go back safely, you can do it again, right?" she pointed out.

Victoria and the others were fumed with rage and they tried so hard to hide their emotions. Elestria on the other hand was smiling when she saw red auras around them, blazing like a raging flame. They knew they were ordered to die, but they would prove her wrong and would pay for what she did to them.

"You can leave, and get some rest because tomorrow you will be going in there again," Elestria looked at Victoria with disgust.

Victoria excused herself and was followed by the others. They left the palace holding their rage, even Victoria snapped at her favorite fan, making the others relate to her rage. They couldn’t wait to seek revenge and to make both Mykel and Elestria go on their knees, begging for their lives.

The moment Victoria left the Queen’s residence, an earthquake happened. It was her doing because she was so close to destroying the whole area with bones, but she held back.

"Are we really going back to the rift tomorrow? I don’t think we would get anything other than what we know," Duncan looked at Victoria.

"I’ll think of a way. I need to be alone for now," Victoria said and then left, walking on the sidewalk with people avoiding her to respect her status as a duchess and because they were scared of her.

"Wasn’t it too harsh for you to send them all back there after such a horrifying experience?" Elysande looked at Elestria with a bit of concern. "You should stop treating them like they’re a scum of this world," she sighed.

"They’re scum and will always be a scum. A dog wouldn’t bite those who feed them, and they would bite the hand that feeds them. They’re meant to be used and be treated worse than animals," Elestria responded. "They need to know their place, and I would treat them differently once they knew," she pointed out.

The morning came and Elestria never thought she was being pushed into her corner. People were asking her about what happened to the scout team and why she hadn’t made any statement related to that. She realized who did that and the purpose behind it, making her look bad by hiding what she discovered and trying to stir public opinion.

"Trying to tame wild beasts is a waste of time and would put yourself in an unnecessarily dangerous situation, Your Highness," Mykel looked at Elestria. "They’re indeed worse than animals because they can use their brains to scheme back against you, Your Highness," he pointed out.

"Tell them that they don’t have to go into the rift. It would only make my image as a tyrant to my people. Victoria is indeed cunning, just like her late father," Elestria sighed as she stood up. "You could tame them before, so it’s your job now to make them surrender completely to me," she stared at Mykel with a serious expression.

(Somewhere in a world emblazed by white flames)

Beldathiel walked into the sea of white flames that could kill anyone who stood near them. She was unharmed and didn’t feel any pain in her body when she walked in the flames. She then climbed up to the altar that was untouched by the flames as if the flames couldn’t burn the structure.

She looked at a woman with long silver hair, sitting on the ground with chains all over her body with nothing that covered her body. The chains weren’t wrapped around her limbs, they were pierced into her skin and flesh, sealing and wrapping her insides.

"I can smell them from down here," The woman said weakly as she breathed heavily. "The foul smell of those backstabbers," she slowly lifted her head and glanced at Beldathiel.

"They can’t touch us and I won’t let them enter this place," Beldathiel responded as she went down to her knees in front of the woman. "I have something to show you, Ciel," she opened her mouth and the tar-like saliva came out of her mouth.

Luciel looked at the saliva as she slowly opened her mouth when Beldathiel’s face was above hers. She swallowed the saliva as she stared into Beldathiel’s stoic expression and lazy eyes. She then saw memories and thoughts of Anathiel like those were her own.

"Looks like they’re here..." Beldathiel looked up at the sky.

"Remember to not risk your life against them. You must die in the hands of mortals to undo the seal," Luciel said with a blank expression as she looked at the ground. "Ana’s death will free me from these chains, and your death will give my power back. You need to be careful," she added.

Beldathiel wrapped the whole altar with her wings, creating a dome made of gold wings. She then grabbed the core of her wings and pulled them off of her back like it was nothing even though it was painful.

It made Luciel speechless because wings couldn’t be regenerated but could be reattached. She looked at Beldathiel who was going to fight the Gods without her wings. She understood her position as the eldest and what sacrifices her sisters had made for her.

"I’ll be back to take my wings back, so make sure not a single feather is missing," Beldathiel assured and then walked out of the wings like curtains.

Luciel was trying to laugh but she coughed instead because she never thought Beldathiel could make a joke like that. She then looked at the wings that started to glow, giving her peace of mind and easing the pain both physically and mentally.

Beldathiel walked out of the sea of flames and could see a woman with dark green hair staring at her with a huge grin on her face. Beldathiel didn’t show any reaction, she was more curious that it was only one God that came.

"How far are you going to take that title seriously? Not only did you betray us, but you came here on your own to kill your oldest sister?" Beldathiel asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Oh, Belda. I’m just bored and wanted to see how strong our sister is, that’s all," The woman giggled.

"You’re beyond saving, Rea. Sooner or later they will eliminate you if all of your sisters have been taken care of," Beldathiel sighed with her eyes closed. "You chose the wrong side," she opened her eyes and saw Aurea was already standing in front of her with a sword ready to cut off her head.

Beldathiel glanced at the sword in Aurea’s hand and it made Aurea’s hand bounce back. She then glanced at Aurea’s chest and Aurea was pushed away from her. Her power was the power of thoughts and wishes, she could withstand and endure anything with a simple mindset.

"Come down, all of you. Are the Gods have become a coward now?" Beldathiel stared at the sky and started to rumble. Your adventure continues at novelbuddy

All the Gods descended and landed behind Aurea, there were dozens of them. Lastly, Jeanne landed beside Aurea and her presence overwhelmed the other Gods.

"I see, so this is your plan all along, to kill Ciel the moment the seal got weakened so you can kill her," Beldathiel stared Jeanne in the eyes. "But I wonder if that would make any difference if you kill her now," she smiled mischievously.

Beldathiel who had never shown such an expression made everyone who saw it feel uncomfortable. She was the second strongest and the most stoic being, and yet she was smiling like that made them think if something had happened behind their backs.
