Destroying My Own Novel

123 Chapter 122



Mykel stayed for two nights and Manna hadn’t given an answer yet but she was already chosen by the people to rule over the Empire. They were asking about Nabel and after they realized that he was dead, there was nothing they could do about it and they didn’t even bother investigating his death.

The world was slowly coming back to life, the rivers were no longer dried out and everyone had enough water supply to live in the city. The livestock were all sent to the capital city and they made farms outside the capital city like how the Cavasi Kingdom did.

Everything was so peaceful but the problem was the Awakeners who were fanatics about death still bothering Mykel. He wanted to kill them all because they were nothing but problems for his plan, and even Manna was so shocked after she realized how bad it was for them to think that death was the only thing they had in mind.

Brainwashing them would take a lot of effort and time and it wasn’t even worth the trouble.

“How should I deal with this?” Mykel said to himself while he sat on the railing in one of the balconies in the palace. He looked at the people who were busy taking kinds of stuff from the buildings with no owners.

[The Trickster wants to propose you an idea]

“An idea?” Mykel stared at the notification. “Alright, summon me to your world,” he said as he walked into the room and teleported to Asgard.

“What’s the idea you’re talking about?” Mykel stared at Loki eating his food in a small room that looked like a secret place in Asgard..

“Why don’t you have a seat and join me? I have prepared the meal for you,” Loki smiled and pointed a the chair far in front of him.

Mykel sat down and looked at the food for quite a while before he decided to eat it.

“I believe you already have a thought about what I’m going to propose?” Loki stared at Mykel with his smooth silky hair going down and covering half of his face.

“I know that you can control your recipient, but I know for sure you’re not going to take them as your recipients since you will gain nothing from it,” Mykel stared at the piece of medium rare steak on his fork.

“But that doesn’t mean I won’t do it,” Loki said with a smile on his face as he chewed the food in his mouth.

Mykel stared at Loki with a straight face and it was enough to tell that Mykel was being suspicious of him. Loki would never do things without getting something in return, and knowing that, Mykel decided to be cautious with whatever Loki was about to propose.

“Don’t stare at me like that, I’m not going to do anything behind your back and I can promise you that,” Loki giggled as he kept focus on eating his food. “Should I tell you my reason first so you can be at ease?” he raised his eyebrow and smiled at Mykel.

“That’s more appropriate for this occasion,” Mykel answered and ate the meat which was really delicious and took him by surprise.

“My reason is simple, I have some business to take care of in the next world inside the Belphegor Tower,” Loki said with his hands crossed on the table.

Mykel suddenly stopped eating the moment he heard that and stared at Loki who had a grin on his face.

“You have seen it, right? The next world after the Veatika world, and you know what happened to them and who was the one behind their destruction?” Loki leaned his body forward as he moved his plate to the side with his fingers.

“The world that similar to Asgard, and it was Odin who handled that world and led them to their own demise,” Mykel answered and looked at Loki who seemed to be in a good mood. “What do you want to do with that world?”

Loki disappeared and reappeared on the chair next to Mykel. “I want to take that world and be mine,” he answered and stared at Mykel’s food.

“You’re not going to take over Asgard? You know you can become the new king and plan your way up to the throne,” Mykel stared at Loki with confusion because he really had no idea what was inside Loki’s head.

“No, I have prepared the throne for my half-brother, Thor. He’s the more suitable one to rise to the throne because people love him for his heroic trait,” Loki answered and grabbed the cup of wine that belonged to Mykel.

“What’s actually your plan, Loki,” Mykel asked seriously as he put his fork and knife down.

“Who knows. Why don’t you agree with what I proposed and see it for yourself later?” Loki smiled with his flirtatious gaze. “I will assure you that it has nothing to do with you nor your plan. It’s just my only desire to own a place of my own outside Asgard and see if I’m capable of ruling over a world,” he answered and explained it to Mykel because he knew that Mykel wouldn’t let him if he couldn’t convince Mykel.

Mykel stared at Loki and he was thinking about it.

“Fine you can do whatever you want but in exchange, you’re going to take all of them and become their Benefactor,” Mykel regretted it a bit but he had no choice since he was running out of time and he had towers that needed to be cleared.

“Alright, it’s done,” Loki said and chuckled softly.

“It’s done? What do you mean?” Mykel furrowed his eyebrows and looked at Loki.

“All of them have become my recipients and I’m controlling their emotions now,” Loki said as he stood up and walked back to his seat. “I did all of that while we were talking,”

That was why Mykel was so cautious around Loki because he could do anything without being noticed.

“Do you have enough Arcana Coins to deal with that many recipients? You said that you’re going to take the next world so I believe you’re planning on clearing them on your own, right?” Mykel said and emptied the plate because he couldn’t help it.

“Are you saying that you want to give me more Arcana Coins?” Loki raised his eyebrows and looked at Mykel with curiosity. “I know you wouldn’t and I have plenty of coins to spend on so I’m good with what I have right now,”

Mykel stood up and wiped his mouth. “Since we have nothing else to discuss, send me back,” he said as he put a cigarette in his mouth.

Loki smiled and clapped his hands to send Mykel back to Veatika.

Mykel left the palace and walked on the street with the knights greeting him. He looked at Awakeners’ profiles that were affected by Hades and Thanatos as he walked. It surprised him that Loki really suppressed their feelings and emotions like a brainwashed person.

“I wonder how he did that,” Mykel said to himself.

“Mykel,” Manna called him from behind.

Mykel turned around and stared at her without saying a single word.

“I have decided,” Manna stood in front of Mykel. “I will become the ruler of the Veatika Empire, but it won’t be easy because the nobles are against it. Fortunately, knowing the current situation, they hold no power against the people because all the royal family is no longer with us, and I’m currently in favor,” she stared at Mykel with a serious expression.

“Good, and you don’t have to worry because the Ordained are supporting you now. I have taken care of the problem for us,” Mykel looked at the Awakeners behind Manna and they all seemed to be not showing any emotions or feelings.

“Are you perhaps one of them?” Manna asked and looked at the sudden changes on the Awakeners.

“You can say that but that’s not really important right now because we need to hurry and put you on the throne. We need to hold your coronation as soon as possible before they start to do something behind our back and changed their minds,” Mykel answered and looked at the nobles who were walking on the street.

Manna looked at her surroundings and the nobles were paying attention to them. They were talking about her and she knew that already by the way their gazes pointed at her.

“I don’t think it would be that easy because to convince the nobles it’s going to take a while and I know them very well that they would prolong the process until they finally hold power over the people again,” Manna replied and she looked a bit worried about it.

Mykel smiled and looked at Manna. “Leave that problem to me, I know how to deal with them,” he said as he walked away and approached the nobles who had been staring at them for quite a while.
