Destroying My Own World-Chapter 58 - : Playing safe.

Jeanne and the others arrived at the hotel, and they were all immediately going to check Mykel’s bedroom since he didn’t reply to her messages. Once they arrived, they looked at a couple of workers who were standing in front of his room, and when they looked inside, it was a total mess. They couldn’t find Mykel or Elena inside, and when they came out of the room, they saw Mykel walking out of the room next door.

"Mykel?! How’s Elena?" Jeanne asked as she hurriedly approached Mykel.

"Looking for me?" Elena asked as she peeked her head out of the room. "I’m fine, I told you didn’t I?" Elena said as she walked out of the room.

They couldn’t believe it that she was totally fine, but then Magnus came out as he held his head. He looked exhausted, but they were more surprised to see him there with Mykel and Elena.

"Thank you," Elena said as she looked at Magnus with a gentle smile.

"Y-yeah, no problem," Magnus nodded his head and realized how pretty she was when she smiled like that. "I should get going now. If you need my help again, just tell me," Magnus said as he looked at Mykel.

"There won’t be next time, and I’ll give it to you when I’m back," Mykel replied.

Magnus nodded his head with understanding and then left with his spear hanging on his back.

"What it was all about? Why Magnus is here in China?" Jeanne asked as she looked at Mykel and Elena.

"Come in, I’ll tell you everything," Mykel said as he rubbed his head because he looked tired.

Everyone went inside and Mykel explained to them what actually happened to Elena. They were surprised that it happened again, but this time Elena was the one who experienced it and not Lyneth. They realized that Elena’s power was like a double-edged sword, and behind that unbeatable power, she had to sacrifice her own life’s energy.

"Does that mean she had a stupid amount of life energy that she could do all of that back then? How much life energy that you gave here?" Aurea asked in disbelief.

"Big enough to create a new universe, that’s what Gaia told me," Mykel answered.

"So why Magnus is here? What’s the connection between Elena’s situation with him?" Jeanne asked.

"Magnus’ spear can produce life energy, and that’s why Elena is fine right now. He’s the one who saved her life," Mykel answered and he looked a bit annoyed and disappointed. "Well at least I don’t owe him anything anymore once I gave him what he wants," Mykel continued.

Everyone didn’t want to ask any further because Mykel was pissed, and they speculated that he was pissed because he had to ask someone to help Elena. He hated getting help, and they all knew that, so they understood why he was pissed because he couldn’t do anything for Elena.

"I’m a bit confused. Why would Magnus help you since that power he has belongs to Odin? Didn’t you say that the Gods know about us and hate us?" Aurea asked as she looked at Mykel.

"I think that’s because Odin can’t do anything about it. Just like back then, benefactors can’t interfere and can’t do anything if their recipients died. I believe he didn’t want to risk losing his favorite Awakener and artifact, so he didn’t prevent Magnus from helping me," Mykel answered. "He’s just playing safe until the time is right to attack, just like the others," Mykel said.

"Right, we were like that back then in the new game," Rozan said as he nodded with understanding.

"Anyway, since Elena is fine now, should we all grab dinner together? I really want to try Chinese food," Lillith said as she saw so much food and smelled them on her way back.

They all agreed and decided to check the nearest restaurants and find the best one out of them.

"You’re out of the team?" Sven asked Elena after he heard that she was no longer on the team.

"I don’t want to make Mykel worried about me. So I’ll hold back until the system is back, and since my power is gradually coming back, it will only make things harder for me if I ended up like that again because next time, it would be impossible to fill," Elena answered as she walked on the sidewalk. "It’s my decision, for my own good," Elena said.

"I see, then I also think you should leave the team temporarily," Sven said as he nodded in agreement. "Anyway, I think we found our choice," Sven pointed at the restaurant with pecking ducks displayed behind the glass wall. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Everyone had the best meal they’d ever had in a while, and they were drunk by the atmosphere because of the private dining room. Everyone ate and laughed to their hearts’ content until they didn’t realize that the restaurant was about to close.

"I’m loving this place, but we are leaving soon, right?" Rozan asked as he looked at Mykel and patted his belly.

"Yes, we are going to South Korea because we have to deal with the Raid Guild that slowly gained fame and favor from the people and the country," Mykel answered as he lit his cigarette.

"Now that’s our cup of tea," Aurea said as she wrapped her arm around Lillith’s neck. "What do you want us to do? We can deal with it in just a single day," Aurea continued as she smirked with confidence.

"You want to give our first impression to Korean people by bathing in their blood? Just wait and see what Mykel wants you to do," Rozan answered as he looked at Aurea.

"That’s unnecessary and looks like you guys haven’t checked the news article on the internet. Go and check it out about the Raid Guild," Mykel said as he nodded up at Rozan’s trousers’ pocket.

Everyone grabbed their phone and searched for the Raid Guild on the search engine. The first thing they saw was the leader of the Raid Guild, Kang Jo Yoon giving his statement about the Guilds of the Worlds that tried to take advantage of the situation. He believed that the Guilds of the World were created to benefit themselves, and he used Mykel as an example since he owned the portal in the United States.

They were all chuckling when they read the most controversial statement that Kang Jo Yoon gave to the press. He said that Mykel Alester wasn’t that strong and he could easily beat him if he met him in person. He was so confident that he had been saying the same thing to all the media all over South Korea.

"This guy is funny, I like him," Vincze said as he giggled.

"I think he’s the first one to confront you, huh? How do you feel about it? I bet you’re quite excited to see him in person," Aurea asked as she looked at Mykel with a huge smile on her face. "How about we do some sparring with them, but this time in public?" Aurea suggested.

"You guys want that? But there’s something that you guys need to know about him first. Based on the information that I have gathered, Kang Jo Yoon’s sponsor and the artifact he possesses could be the strongest of all the Chosen Ones at the moment," Mykel explained as he looked at his phone. "Mireuk, the God of creation and destruction. His artifact is a sword, and it has been proved that the sword is unbreakable," Mykel continued.

"So what? As long as he can’t hit us, his sword as good as a stick," Aurea answered. "But I’m not saying that I’m not interested in that sword though. I would love to test it myself," Aurea said.

"If you guys want to have another spar, I don’t mind as long as you don’t take it too far. I have prepared a plan, and I want this to work," Mykel replied as he looked at them.

"Said the guy who shoved his hand and pulled out the heart from a woman’s chest," Lillith chuckled.

Mykel scoffed as he smirked and said, "We are leaving tomorrow morning with Jeong and his team. Also, there’s one thing that I want you guys to do first once we arrived."

"And that is?" Jeanne asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Create an influence toward the people. For once, let’s become a famous star," Mykel answered.
