“You’re really spoiling him,” Mykel said in his mind.

“Here we go again,” Gunnar stretched his arms and looked at the giant trees around him. “Let’s do this,”

“I don’t think there are any demons here, you can tell by the look how the villagers are living peacefully there,” Rozan said as he walked next to Gunnar. “Could it be they managed to fight off the demons?”

“That’s not possible,” Agnez answered. “Knowing how weak they are compared to us, I don’t think so,”.

“If that’s the case, then how can they all live so peacefully?” Sven asked as he rested his scythe on his shoulder.

Agnez just shrugged and didn’t say a word.

They all entered the village and were welcomed by the giants, Mykel looked at how tall those giants were because it was the first time they saw them.

“Even though they all look scary, these people are actually really nice, Mykel,” Jeanne said as she walked next to Mykel.

“I see,” Mykel looked at the hut in the middle of the village. “Is that where the village chief lives?”

“Yes, his name is Dougal, he’s the son of the previous chief,” Jeanne answered as she nodded her head. “The chief died from the ritual and you know the rest of it,”

Mykel hummed with understanding and then he saw Dougal come out from the hut. Dougal watched them walk toward him and he waved his hand with a smile on his face.

“Something is off,” Agnez said as she looked around.

“As far as I know after checking their memories, the demons didn’t invade this village during the breakout. Dougal stayed on this floor during the Breakout as well, so it could be that Lark and the other warriors from Triev world defeated the demons already,” Lillith replied. “But who knows,”

“You’re just being paranoid, Agnez,” Rozan said and looked at Agnez with a worried expression since he could tell she didn’t want to believe the giants after what happened to her.

Agnez crossed her arms and closed her eyes to communicate with Mazikeen.

“What’s happening here? Did you know something?” Agnez asked in her mind.

“Who knows, maybe it has something to do with me,” Mazikeen answered. “Maybe my father didn’t participate since he knew that I was in your world and inside your body. He’s an idiot so you can’t tell what’s in his empty head,”

Agnez scoffed and shook her head while Lillith looked at her with curiosity.

“Agnez Maurice, welcome back,” Dougal said as he looked down at Agnez.

“Hmm. we are here to clear the fifteenth floor, but before that, can you tell me something first?” Agnez asked with her arms still crossed. “Was there a Breakout on the fourteenth floor? A few days ago?”

“There was, but Lark and the other warriors took care of the demons already,” Dougal answered.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“They took care of the demons? How?” Agnez asked with confusion because she knew that the giants wouldn’t be able to defeat the demons, especially after knowing the warriors of Triev weren’t that many left.

“While you were gone, warriors from another world came and helped us to deal with the demons,” Dougal answered. “I believe they’re still on the fourteenth floor right now since another group of warriors entered our world last night,”

“From which world did they come?” Kastor asked before Agnez could open her mouth.

Dougal stared at Kastor for a moment and then looked back at Agnez. “They said that they came from a world called Evion. Based on their attire, they looked similar to yours,” Dougal said as he pointed at Agnez’s military trench coat over her shoulder.

“I see, we are going to the fourteenth floor then,” Agnez said and then looked at Gunnar and the others. “Come on,”

“Wait,” Dougal said as he put his hand in front of Agnez. “It’s the world of the people that came here last night, the one that helped us deal with the demons during the Breakout is from a different world,”

All of them looked at Dougal with a surprised expression.

“The one that helped us, they came from Creo world,” Dougal said as he looked at Agnez.

Agnez nodded with understanding. “Alright, we will meet them now,”

Mykel stared at Agnez and smiled a bit because she acted like a leader and he liked that.

“Two different worlds, huh? This is getting interesting,” Gunnar looked at the portal as he walked next to Agnez with his arms crossed.

Agnez turned her head and looked at Mykel from over her shoulder. “What do you think, Mykel? How should we approach them?”

“You’re the team leader, it’s you to decide. Just pretend that I’m not here,” Mykel answered and everyone looked at him with confusion. “Come with me for a second, Agnez,” Mykel said and went to the side on his own.

“You guys go ahead, I will catch up with you guys,” Agnez said and then followed Mykel to the side.

Everyone entered the portal except for Jeanne, she looked at them both for a moment then entered the portal.

“I want you to lead the team from now on,” Mykel said with his hands in his pockets. “Since you already know about who I am, you should understand that there are things that I have to maintain up there,”

“What’s that supposed to mean? Are you going to leave us?” Agnez furrowed her eyebrows with displeased.

“Leave? Earth is my home, so I’m not going anywhere. It’s just there are things that I need to do, things that you won’t understand,” Mykel answered. “Just because I said that you will take over the team, that doesn’t mean I will abandon you all,”

“Then lead us, you don’t have to do anything. Do what you always did, observe, and give us orders. I’m here because I want to follow you, not to lead the team,” Agnez said with a bit of annoyance in her voice.

Mykel let out a big sigh then he put his hands on Agnez’s neck. He gently rubbed his thumbs on her jaw as he stared down at her.

“I will, but not at the moment,” Mykel said. “You have proven that you can lead the team, so I want you to be my replacement for now,”

“Of course,” Mykel paused as he gently grabbed Agnez’s neck with his left hand. “I will reward you if you did a great job on clearing each fifteenth floor,”

Agnez stared at Mykel and slowly she showed her smirk. “What kind of reward?” Agnez asked as she grabbed Mykel’s right hand and put it on her left cheek.

“Anything you want,” Mykel said.

“Don’t go back on your words,” Agnez said with a smile on her face then slowly walked backward while she kept staring at Mykel.

Agnez entered the portal then Mykel followed her.

They all went to the fourteenth floor and saw the mess and dead bodies of demons and giants scattered around the open field. They were throwing the demons’ bodies into the fire while burying the giants’ bodies on the other side.

They didn’t find the people like them around the field, so they decided to enter the village and checked if those people from another world were there.

The moment they entered the village, they heard a commotion in the distance and the first thing they saw was a man with curly blonde hair rolled over on the ground with his red cheek because of a punch. Agnez raised her eyebrow and decided to approach him with the others following behind her.

“Oh, you’re going to pay for that,” The blonde-haired guy said as he stood up and held his cheek, and before he could walk back, he saw Agnez and the others walking toward him. “Hmm? Who are these people,” He said to himself.

Agnez kept staring at the guy and it made him uncomfortable and decided to run back to his team.

The moment Agnez and the others walked to the crossroad, they saw dozens of people facing each other. Two groups of people were glaring at each other furiously with their weapons in their hands.

“Huh? I see, so you have a backup team, no wonder you guys are so confident to fight us,” A guy with red hair that he pulled back stared at Agnez and the others. “That won’t be a problem,” He continued as he swung his swords in his hands.

“They’re not with us, so they’re not from your world?” The blonde-haired guy asked as he rubbed his cheek.

The red-haired guy furrowed his eyebrows with confusion and then looked at Agnez and the others.

“Wow, now there are three groups of people from three different worlds, huh? What a pain,” He said as he pointed the right sword at the blonde-haired guy and his group while he pointed his left sword at Agnez.

Agnez scoffed and shook her head with a smirk on her face. “You’re going to regret pointing your sword at me,” She said as she unsheathed her sword.
