âAre you okay? You have been so quiet when the people from Juvenâs world came to Helmga,â Mykel asked as he walked next to Lyneth in the endless hallway.
âNothing, itâs just that Iâm overwhelmed by the fact we are not the only ones,â Lyneth answered as she rested her head on Mykelâs shoulder and Mykel immediately wrapped his arm around her shoulder to keep her closer to him.
âLetâs rest for today because you have been walking around all the kingdoms back then,â Mykel said and Lyneth hummed in agreement.
Mykel looked back and never thought the main character of the story was so underwhelming in the presence of the other characters in the story. Mykel almost forgot about him until he realized that he brought a scroll in his blazer pocket.
âAsmond,â Mykel said as he looked at Asmond. âYou have been acting so gloomy, that should help you get back on your feet,â he said as he threw [Strength Skill Scroll] to Asmond.
Asmond took it and he immediately wreathed in a smile then looked at Mykel. âThank you, Mykel!â
âWe are going to clear all the fifteenth floor in each tower, so I want you to get back up as soon as possible. Youâre still the hero that people look up to, Asmond, donât disappoint them,â Mykel replied with a smile on his face.
Although it sounded encouraging, it brought pressure under Asmondâs consciousness that would slowly consume him. Mykel experienced it first hand and he knew how bad it felt when someone brought it back up after he fell really hard.
They left the tower and were immediately welcomed by Zherthlsh and Vixelleth who stood near the gate.
The three of them flew back to District 1 and Lyneth was in deep sleep the moment she laid down on her bed. Mykel watched her snoring quietly and then he went to the living room where Zherthlsh and Vixelleth were enjoying a bottle of wine.
âHow was the hunt?â Mykel asked as he removed his blazer and the two top buttons on his shirt.
âIt wasnât easy but I got a few of them already and it was really nice,â Vixelleth answered as she stared at Mykel with a glass of wine in her hand.
âAre you going to go back once you got all of them?â Mykel asked and lifted a chair and put it in front of the table and faced those two.
âIt dependsâ¦â Vixelleth said as she looked at Zherthlsh who was leaning on the sofa with a bottle of wine in her hand. âIf my sister stays, I will stay here as well,â she continued as she put the glass of wine on the table and gently rubbed Zherthlshâs cheek.
Mykel watched those two start kissing each other and Vixelleth was already on top of Zherthlsh. He quietly watched as he poured himself a glass of wine and enjoyed the view from the front row seat.
Both Zherthlsh and Vixelleth were giggling and moaning at each other and Mykel was kind of a bit worried that Lyneth might hear them.
âCan you do it in another room?â Mykel said as he grabbed the glass of wine and the bottle. âIf you need anything I will be in my room,â he said as he walked toward Lynethâs room.
âMykel Alester,â Vixelleth called as she stared at Mykel who was about to enter Lynethâs room. âYou still remember your promise, right?â she continued as she cracked her fingers and her claws slowly grew longer and sharper.
âWhat do you think Iâm doing here? Iâm working on it,â Mykel answered as he stared at Vixelleth from the corner of his eyes.
The morning came, and Mykel went to the living room to see the mess both Zherthlsh and Vixelleth made. He checked the guest room and saw both of them were asleep with nothing covering their bodies. The whole room was far worse than the living room and not to mention the mysterious stains on the sheet and blanket.
âMykel?! What happened here?!â Lyneth asked as she walked toward Mykel who stood in front of the guest roomâs door.
âYou can see it yourself, the culprit,â Mykel said as he looked at Lyneth and pointed his finger at those two.
âOh my goodnessâ¦â Lyneth said and immediately looked away because she was surprised when she saw both of them naked on the bed.
Lyneth looked at how smooth and shiny their skin was and it made her a bit jealous. âAre they a lover?â she asked as she looked at Mykel.
âSomething like that, yeah,â Mykel answered as he nodded his head.
âSo you havenât slept with them?â Lyneth asked with curiosity and her eyebrow raised.
âNo, why? You want me to sleep with them?â Mykel replied with his eyebrows furrowed.
âI mean theyâre beautiful and I can tell that youâre attracted to their perfect body,â Lyneth said as she was hugging the wall and stared at them.
âWhat are you talking about? Just wake them up, I want to take a shower and then go to Azrael tower to clear the eleventh floor,â Mykel replied and left the room but then Lyneth grabbed Mykelâs hand while she bit the bottom of her lips. âDonât blame me if you canât focus on your work today,â he said and lifted Lyneth up as he brought her to the bathroom with him.
âGood morning, boss!â Gunnar said as he board the plane and looked at Mykel who was laying on the chair with a cigarette in his mouth. âWow, you look tired, boss,â he continued as he lowered his head so his head wouldnât hit the ceiling.
Mykel just smiled and kept smoking his cigarette.
âMykel, we heard about what happened yesterday, did you really meet people from another world?â Agnez asked as she sat on the seat on the other side of Mykelâs seat.
âYes, we did and there were so many of them,â Mykel answered and everyone immediately sat down and turned their seat to look at him.
âWhat?! Really?! What are they look like? Did you take a photo of them?â Rozan asked while he chewed an energy bar.
Mykel grabbed his phone and showed the photos that Lyneth took. âThose people came from Juven world, a world thatâs more advanced than us,â he answered as he looked at them who were amazed by the armor and weapons Barika and his team had.
âCan you tell us the detail, Mykel, we want to know,â Jeanne asked nervously since she didnât want to bother him but she was curious about it at the same time.
Mykel sat straight as he pulled his seat back up then he explained everything to them.
âThatâs really interesting, isnât it? To think there are other worlds that similar to us who struggle to clear the towers. Still, knowing that they only have four towers even though theyâre more advanced than our world is a bit unfair donât you think?â Rozan said as he looked at the others.
The reason for that was simply because the main character was in this world but Mykel couldnât tell them that so he just laid down on his seat again.
âI want to see that Barika guy and I want to ask him for a duel because the boss said he looked like me,â Gunnar said as he rested his arms on the armrest.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAfter listening to Mykelâs story, he does sound like you,â Agnez replied while she adjust her seat. âAnyway, the more interesting thing is whatâs in front of us. I wonder what kind of world in the eleventh floor of Azrael tower,â she continued.
They landed on District 8 and went straight to Azrael tower after getting permission from Kastor. They didnât join them because of Mykelâs words so they wanted to at least kill a demon lord on their own then they will join afterward.
Everyone brought a suitcase full of food supplies for themselves because they didnât want to starve themselves in the other world. While they were clearing the first ten floors, Mykel and Edith were the ones who guarded the suitcases.
It only took them half an hour to clear the first ten floors and Mykel was so proud of them because their skills level were almost maxed out. Their level rose to 34 which really surprised him because it wasnât easy and in the original story, their level didnât even reach 30 in the same timeline.
Mykel stood in front of the portal with the others watching from behind. âYou guys already have Body Enhancement skill, right?â he asked.
âYes, we got a notification about combining basic skills when we reach level 30,â Rozan answered.
âGood, then try to raise that skill to level 5 if you can before we reach the fifteenth floor,â Mykel said. âEveryone ready to leave?â he asked.
âWe are ready whenever, boss,â Gunnar answered as he nodded his head.
âAlright, letâs go,â Mykel said as he entered the portal.
