Destroying My Own Novelchapter 424: bloodthirst.

"Is the boss alright? I feel like he's in an unapproachable mode..." Gunnar asked Agnez who was cleaning her sword on the rooftop with Lillith and Mazikeen.

Agnez glanced at Mykel and Gunnar wasn't wrong about Mykel. It looked like he had a bloodthirsty aura around him since she was always like that that was why she knew. She didn't even want to get close to him because of that, and there was no information on the progress of the experiment from him either.

Mykel stood up and walked to the edge to see the street down below with the snow falling in front of him. He sighed and looked at the Abaddon Tower from a distance.

"(There's nothing that can satiate your bloodthirst, you're already above all the Gods, and there's nobody else that can be a good match for you except for Mara)" Lucifer said since he didn't know Mykel would get bored doing nothing but scheming. "(I hate to admit, even if you ask me to fight you with only using brute strength, I'm no match for you)" Lucifer continued.

"(I'm going to clear the Azazel Tower while waiting for Gaia, Shelly, and Nyx to finish the Spirit Vessel)" Mykel said as he looked at the sky. "(Thinking about it, the fifty-first floor world is the world I want to experience myself. The Certic World)" Mykel smiled.

Mykel didn't say a word and warped to Azazel Tower. Agnez and the others were confused that he suddenly left.

"It's been a while," Mykel looked at the Helmga World had become so lively and people seemed to be living in peace.

Mykel didn't want to be bothered by the hospitality of the people. So he walked all the way to the tower unnoticed and unseen. He then reached the fifty-first floor and entered the Certic World.

"Do I really have to be your companion?" Lucifer asked and he used his human form as he pulled his gray hair back in his gray suit. "Hmm? Looks like there are already Awakeners in this world," Lucifer looked at the groups of Awakeners helping the people rebuild the town.

"They're all from a different world, but looks like they're stuck here," Mykel said as he entered the town and looked at the Awakeners accepting their fate living in this world.

Certic World that similar to ancient Rome, even the knights had the same big square shield on their backs. They worshiped the same Gods as the Greeks, but with different names. They even had a statue of Gods in the central part of the town.

"Excuse me? Which world did you guys come from?" A woman who seemed concerned asked Mykel.

"Earth," Mykel answered.

"If I may ask. Are you perhaps the ones who cleared the previous floors?" The woman with long pink ponytail hair in a blue military uniform asked.

"No," Mykel glanced at the Awakeners that started to pay attention to him. He could tell the disappointment in their expression after knowing he wasn't the one who cleared the floors.

The pink-haired woman hid her face by looking down and biting her bottom lip.

"I'm sorry to tell you this, but you won't be able to leave this world..." The woman said in a trembling voice.

Mykel glanced at her and hummed with understanding, but he brushed it off. He then walked away with Lucifer next to him as the woman felt a bit guilty for saying that to him even though it wasn't her fault in the first place.

"Feeling guilty because she's too weak. That girl has no hope in this world," Lucifer glanced at the woman.

"Said the one who gave the order to invade the world," Mykel said as he lit his cigarette.

"Said the one who created the story," Lucifer replied as he put a cigarette in his mouth and scoffed. "Anyway, are we going to walk, take a horse, or fly to the arena?" Lucifer asked as he lit the cigarette.

"Let's take the horse and enjoy the scenery," Mykel looked at the stable to his left. He wanted to enjoy every part of the Certic World since it was one of his favorite worlds.

Mykel and Lucifer bought the horses with gold coins that they created from thin air. They both rode the horse and trotted in between fields with the sampietrini road below them.

In the original story, Asmond and his friends realized that the Certic World was different. The demons did conquer the world, but both the demon servant and lord existed in this world because the Certic World didn't end on the fifty-fifth floor, but it ended on the sixtieth floor.

The Demon Lord Hemios of the Chieftain was interested in the tradition of the Certic World. The gladiator and the arena to please the emperor. That was when he thought it would be better to defeat all the strongest men and women in that world so he could become the emperor to find someone who could defeat him.

The world itself was safe from Hemios, but that didn't mean his underlings didn't go and create a mess in that world. Demons were still demons, and they did all the unpleasant things they did in Helmga World.

Asmond saw the first arena in the second largest city of Certic. It was when he and some of his friends decided to enter because of the information about the demon servant as the final opponent.

They fought all the demons including the gladiators that were forced to fight them. Once they all defeated all their opponents, it was when they all regretted joining because of the rule of the arena. Be the last survivor to fight the demon servant, and that also meant they had to fight each other to death.

Asmond came as the victor and defeated the demon servant of Hemios, but he also killed his friends there. Gunnar and the others watched Asmond kill them and couldn't prevent it since the spectators couldn't do anything because of the invisible barrier.

After Asmond grieved for a moment, they all continued to the capital city where Hemios waited for them. Once they arrived, they were shocked when they saw the Colosseum, ten times bigger than the arena.

Knowing it was the same scenario and rule, Asmond thought that he should be the only one to challenge him. But after he heard there would be five hundred opponents, he knew he wouldn't survive if he had to fight some of them on his own, especially if the last few opponents were stronger than him. It would be pointless since they had to do it all over again until they defeated Hemios.

Rozan, Gunnar, and even Jeanne said that it would be best if they came with him to eliminate the strongest enemies together. But, that also meant they had to fight each other to death. Asmond didn't want that, and so did the other friends because they knew how precious Gunnar and the others' lives were compared to theirs.

In the end, Asmond killed his friends and companions again for the second time. The guilt of killing his own friends was the lowest moment in his life in the original story. He had a breakdown for a long time until Jeanne managed to make him move on.

"I never thought I would enjoy something like this, but we are here," Lucifer said as he looked at the smaller and uglier version of the Colosseum. "I'm going to enjoy and wander around the city," Lucifer said as he jumped down.

"Why don't you join the tournament as well? It would be fun, no?" Mykel asked as he jumped down from the horse's back.

"I'll join you in the Colosseum. This isn't that grand, so I would rather enjoy the signature food they offer," Lucifer said as he tied the reins on the nearby tree. "So, enjoy your time in there," Lucifer continued as he flicked the butt of the cigarette.

Mykel walked to the arena where dozens of Awakeners stood at the entrance and hesitated to enter the tournament. He then waited in line, but then those Awakeners stared at him and slowly moved to the side.

"Are you going to apply for the tournament?" A man asked.

"Yes," Mykel answered as he walked to the entrance. "Care to join?" Mykel asked with his eyebrows raised.

All of them shook their heads repeatedly.
