"I like the second option more, hunt those cocky Awakeners sounds more fun than killing demons," Lillith answered. "Anyone else has any objection?" Lillith asked.
Everyone looked at Jeanne since she was in charge of the team. She looked at Asmond, and how things kept getting better and better on his side made her irritated.
"What do you say, Jeanne?" Gunnar asked.
"If they're here to kill us, then I won't stay quiet, but if not, we will. I'm not trying that Mykel isn't telling the truth, but I want to see it with my own two eyes first," Jeanne answered. "Is that okay, Mykel?" Jeanne looked Mykel in the eye.
"I know you would say that, so that's your call Jeanne," Mykel answered.
"Hu-hunt them?" Enma's voice trembled as she looked at Mykel. She was still processing what she had heard, and the big revelation. She looked around and everyone was staring at her and giving her a warm look to comfort her.
"Give me your hand," Mykel asked as he walked toward Enma. "I won't hurt you or do anything weird. I'm trying to calm you down," Mykel reached out his hand at her.
Enma slowly touched Mykel's hand, and he made her mind at peace. It felt comfortable and made her at ease.
"You can show her your memories," Mykel looked at Lillith. "Let her know who we are," Mykel continued as he kept holding Enma's left hand. "I will keep her sane while you show her your memories," Mykel looked Enma in the eye.
Lillith looked Enma in the eye and used her skill [Sentient Control]. It didn't only give Lillith the ability to control the target's body, but it also allowed them to look back at Lillith's memories if she wanted to. It was just that she had no reason to share her memories with anyone.
She grabbed Enma's head and forced her to look her in the eye. She then showed Enma what she wanted to show her, and it looked like Enma was being hypnotized. She had a blank expression and her eyes were empty.
Everyone looked at Enma who suddenly stopped moving and became quiet. They were shocked when they saw tears coming out, but she wasn't showing any expression.
Suddenly, Enma snapped back to reality and threw up all the breakfast she had. Everyone moved away while Gunnar immediately grabbed a cloth to clean it all up. Mykel then let go of his hand from Enma's hand after he stabilized her mind.
"This is who we are, Enma," Mykel stood up and looked down at Enma. "With that being said, what are you going to do now? You can leave and live a normal life, but you can't say a word about who we are," Mykel asked as he walked away. "If you do, I'll kill you as painfully as possible. Then, I will bring you back to life and repeat it again and again until you lose your mind," Mykel went to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of vodka.
Enma was scared and Gunnar was the only one who tried to comfort her and calm her down. Gunnar looked at Mykel and his expression was enough to tell him to show mercy on Enma.
"But I won't do that knowing how he loves you so much. I'll just erase your memories and make you forget about everything and live your life like any other ordinary person," Mykel said as he poured a glass of vodka. "What do you say?" Mykel asked and looked at Enma.
"I will cooperate," Enma answered with fear in her voice.
"Welcome aboard to the winning team," Lillith said as she played with Rubik's cube. "Also, don't be too formal when talking with Mykel. He hates it, ju" Lillith continued as she finished one side of the Rubik's cube.
Enma looked at Mykel who enjoyed his drink, and he looked at her with a bit of a smirk. Then a notification suddenly appeared in front of Enma. It was an invitation to become Mykel's [Recipient]. She looked at it for a moment and then accepted the invitation.
Skills were given to Enma like a waterfall. She was dumbfounded when she watched a dozen notifications in front of her spamming and covering her vision.
"What's the plan, boss?" Rozan looked at Mykel as he stood up. "We are going into the tower to hunt them?" Rozan asked.
"Not at the moment. We will wait and see what Asmond is trying to do with this. He's not aware of the situation, and why people are turning into Awakeners," Mykel answered as he walked back to the living room and watched the news. "Let him get all the attention while we keep focusing on clearing the towers on our side," Mykel continued.
"What if we encounter those Awakeners inside the towers?" Vincze asked.
"That's Jeanne to decide. I will make you the new team leader Jeanne. Agnez won't be joining you guys because she has something else to do," Mykel answered and looked at Jeanne.
Jeanne nodded with understanding.
"From now on, you don't have to wait for my words. You can go and clear the towers whenever you want. You guys have proven your strength when you guys fought the Demon Princesses. There's nothing that can stop you now," Mykel said as he emptied his glass.
"Where are you going boss?" Gunnar asked.
"I'm going to bring Lyneth back. There's something I need her to do for me," Mykel answered.
"Can we see her?" Jeanne stood up, and everyone felt the same way.
"Sure, she misses you guys as well. Wait for us in Lyneth's apartment," Mykel answered, and then warped away.
Everyone hurriedly left the suite and went to Lyneth's apartment which was only four blocks away from their suite. It only took them fifteen minutes, and when they arrived, Mykel and Lyneth were already there.
"Miss Lyneth!" Jeanne said with a huge smile on her face.
"Holy shit... don't you think she looks more and more gorgeous or is it just me?" Rozan asked as he leaned toward Gunnar and kept his eyes on Lyneth.
"Yeah, she's smoking hot," Sven replied. He looked at Lyneth in her blue gown with so many accessories on her body from bracelets, rings on her fingers, and an arm ring on her left upper arm. All of them were made of gold, and the rings had jewels on it.
"Jeanne, everyone," Lyneth replied with a bright smile and then hugged Jeanne so tightly. She then whispered something into Jeanne's ear that made her blush and fluster.
Everyone was admiring Lyneth's new appearance, and the way she spoke and behaved was something that resembled a Goddess. They listened to her story, how she met Goddesses, and how Mykel gathered all of them under his leadership.
"(Is it happening in the Yggdrasil as well?)" Mykel asked.
"(Yes, Awakeners, almost seventy percent of the people in Midgard have become one. It's not just us, but the mortal world in the south is also the same. Mortals have become powerful,)" Loki answered.
"(We both know what that means, isn't it?)" Mykel asked as he turned around and looked at Lyneth surrounded by everyone and admired by them. "(She's trying to fight the Gods with mortals,)" Mykel said.
"(Mortals to fight the Gods?)" Loki chuckled. "(Even if they have the power and the strength that can match us the Gods, mortals can't even touch us, the Gods. It's their nature to obey the Gods,)" Loki continued.
"(That's the problem, Loki,)" Mykel replied as he looked outside the window. "(She can change that nature by turning them into Demi-Gods. She has the power, and I stole that power from her. That's why I can become a Demi-God and turn myself into this,)" Mykel explained.
Loki went quiet and realized how bad the situation they were in was. If the world of mortals they ruled suddenly got an opportunity to change things over, they wouldn't let the opportunity go. With Mara's help, everything would be possible, and since she had decided to join, they could only prevent her from getting her goal.
"(What's your plan, Mykel?)" Loki asked.
"(You can't do anything, and just watch. I will handle everything from here,)" Mykel answered. "(If the Gods scare me, I'll make mortals fear me,)" Mykel continued as he watched pedestrians on the street.
