Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Four Guilds.

"What took you so long? Were you having fun that you forgot the time?" Aurea asked when she watched Mykel enter the bar when it was already nighttime.

"I met a messenger," Mykel answered as he walked to the counter to grab a drink.

"A messenger?" Aurea furrowed her eyebrows and followed Mykel from behind. "What do you mean?" she asked.

Jeanne and the others heard their conversation and wondered what it was, so they followed Mykel to the counter. Mykel poured himself a glass of vodka and he was deep in thought while the others were waiting for his answer.

"I met a messenger of a Goddess. I asked and she mentioned Goddess of Nightmare," Mykel answered after he drank a whole glass in a single gulp. "She said that the Goddess feels betrayed, and she's coming for me," Mykel continued as he poured another glass of vodka.

"Goddess of Nightmare?" Bhatmelec asked with her left eyebrow raised. "Wait a minute... you mean..."

"Mara," Mykel answered as he nodded his head and looked at Bhatmelec.

The whole room became silent, and only the sound of the TV filled the room. They heard the story of the battle between Mykel and Elena against Mara, and they were baffled by it. So everyone was frozen still when they heard that name again which was enough to give them chills.

"So, uh... what are we going to do?" Sven asked nervously.

"That's not my concern right now," Mykel answered as he put the glass on his bottom lip. "What surprises me is that Mara still remembers what happened to her even though it was just a fictional character I created," Mykel pointed out.

Everyone had just realized that and started to think that if Mara remembered Mykel, that also meant that Hera and the others also remembered everything. They were all deep in thought about the possibility of the Gods and Goddesses to aid them.

"Doesn't that mean Lucifer remembered everything as well? But why he decided to turn against us?" Elena asked Mykel. "He should have helped us," Elena said.

"Because this Lucifer isn't the same as the Lucifer in the story. Even though he remembered everything, he had nothing to do with us. Also, he belonged to someone else," Mykel answered. "So, I don't think Hera and the others would help us since we are just a mortal and a stranger to them. Even if I want to convince them, I can't speak with them," Mykel explained.

"Mara isn't the one who loathed Mykel," Jeanne said quietly.

Everyone looked at Jeanne with confused looks, but then they remembered what he did to Ra, Odin, Hades, Zeus, Poseidon, and the other Gods that Mykel forced to follow him. Without Mykel's system, Hera and the other Gods that followed him wouldn't dare to go against Zeus, Odin, and Ra since they were the Kings of Gods.

Mykel scoffed and drank his vodka, "I knew it wouldn't be that easy. We are running out of time and we are also hated by the Gods. That's why no Gods want to sponsor us."

"But there are more Gods in this world, right? Why none of them want to sponsor us?" Rozan asked.

"Well, if you're a God, don't you think you have access to speak with other Gods? I think they already know everything about who we are and who Mykel is. Not to mention we are the ones who brought these demons here," Gerrard answered as he sharpened his knife.

While they were silently thinking about it, a breaking news came out and it took their attention.

"Today is June 30th, we remind everyone that's watching this to take shelter and prepare enough food for a week. On July 1st, a breakout will happen and please be safe and don't go outside. Share this information to anyone and God bless you all," A man in a suit said.

"Right... we still have to deal with this..." Vincze said. "We should postpone this and get some rest I guess," Vincze continued.

Everyone nodded their heads and went upstairs except for Mykel and Elena.

"You're not sleeping again today, father?" Elena asked.

"No, I'm going to sleep tonight. I'm exhausted," Mykel answered and put the bottle of vodka back in the cabinet.

"Alright, I'll wake you up in the morning," Elena said.

"I just realized that your hair is growing. Are you going to cut it?" Mykel asked.

Elena looked at her hair which had become long down to her shoulder. She never let her hair grow and kept it short back then, and now she didn't have any control over her growth anymore. "I think I'll let it grow," Elena answered as she held her hair.

"I see, goodnight then," Mykel said as he patted Elena's head and then went upstairs.

(Outside the conference hall in Nebraska)

"Mister President, all the guild masters are waiting for you," A woman said.

"Yes, I should apologize for being late," Richard said as he fixed his suit with dozens of bodyguards following behind him.

Richard entered the conference hall and saw hundreds of Awakeners in formal attire talking with each other. They suddenly went quiet and stared at him as he walked past them with respect. He then looked at four men standing at the other side of the hall in fancy attire.

"Good evening," Richard said and looked at them.

"Good evening Mister President," A messy brown-haired man in a brown coat said as he nodded his head. His name was James Chase the Guild Master of the Goldmane Guild of Nebraska.

"It's nice seeing you here today, Mister President," A red-haired man with a buffed body said. His name was Travis Barret the Guild Master of the Conquerors Guild of South Dakota.

A black-haired man in an all-white shirt, vest, and trousers didn't say anything and kept drinking his champagne. His name was Victor Prince, the Guild Master of the Oath Guild of Iowa.

"Thanks for coming, Mister President," A dark brown-haired man with glasses said with a gentle smile. His name was Morris Page, the Guild Master of the Silver Cross Guild of Minnesota.

Richard shook their hands and then her secretary led them all to the round table that was filled with food and wine. He was invited because all four guilds had something to say.

"Mister President..." James said.

"Just call me Richard. I don't think my title is worth anything here since all of you have been doing more than what a president can do," Richard interfered.

"Mister Richard, the reason we are inviting you here is that we all have decided to go and take back the cities. We believe with this many Awakeners and the sponsors that we got, we are able to take them back from the demons," James explained.

Richard was mildly shocked when he heard the good news, but he kept his composure and tried to be as dignified as a president.

"Are you sure you can do that?" Richard asked.

"Yes," Victor answered without hesitation. "And we are going to start moving tomorrow," Victor continued.

"Tomorrow?! But tomorrow there will be a breakout," Richard said.

"We will move as soon as we cleared the wave, so rest assured that we will protect the four states since that's our priority," Travis answered. "Since we know where the demons are going to come, half a day should be enough and we will start to move after," Travis continued.

Richard hummed with understanding since it would be possible since these four men had been dealing with demons for more than a year. They all had achieved a great feat he believed in their words without questioning anything.

"In that case, we will give a hand so you can stop the breakout sooner," Richard said as he nodded his head.

"That would be great, Mister Richard. We have thousands of Awakeners ready for tomorrow in each state, so it's really a piece of good news," Morris said with a smile. "We won't disappoint you," Morris continued.

"That's assuring, but if I may ask, which state are you going to take first?" Richard asked and looked at all of them.

"We decided to take Colorado first because we believe we need the minerals it has. We can get more sources of them to make weapons if we take it back from the demons," James answered. "Also it's closer to us," James continued.

"Colorado. I think the other states have more minerals than that state. Not to mention it's so big and surrounded by other states where demons live," Richard answered and he looked a bit confused.

"There's another reason," Victor said as he leaned on the chair. "Our sponsors requested us to take that state first," Victor explained.

"The Gods? What's in there?" Richard asked.

"We don't know, and we will find out soon enough," Victor answered.
