Destroying My Own Novel

Mara was baffled, and she felt like she was being played like a fool. She stood up to approach Hera with a cold stare and immediately grabbed her on the cheeks with her right hand. Hera was terrified and Mara decided to use her power to punish her and tried to look into her memories.

When she looked into Hera's memories, she was dumbfounded that there was not even a single trace of Mykel's memories inside Hera's head. She then walked toward Aphrodite, Skadi, Nyx, Hel, and even Loki to look into their memories, but all of them were the same, they didn't have any memory of Mykel.

Mara was so confused by the bizarre phenomenon that she had never heard of or seen before. All the heads of the Major Arcana didn't remember him, but weirdly enough, all the members of the Constellations remembered him clearly.

All the Constellations whispered and questioned what was going on at the table. They heard enough but didn't understand why all the heads didn't know who Mykel was. Especially after what they all had been through to get where they were at that moment.

Mara looked at Luciel, the only God that she believed could be on par with Mykel. She was confused why Luciel couldn't even remember him even though she had strong skills and abilities that prevented her from memory loss or memory manipulation.

She found out that all the Gods that were associated with Mykel had lost their memories of him. Every single one of them, the Gods that Mara had been paying attention to for the past year.

Mara looked at the condition in Gehenna, and she was furious that Mykel was there. He didn't get summoned even though she used her [Domain Admin] skill to surpass the [Authority] skill. She was confident enough that Mykel would be attending the meeting even after he rejected the invitation.

Mara tried to deduce what had happened by talking with all the heads of Major Arcana. She asked Luciel how she ended up becoming the Devil Arcana head. She then asked Skadi the same thing. She asked Hera about Sasha, she asked Loki about Angra and Spenta, and lastly, she asked Hel about the God who took Nidhoggr.

No matter how hard they tried to remember, they ended up in a pitch-black tunnel of memories. They were curious about the answers to those questions, but they couldn't remember anything, not even a silhouette or a glimpse of it.

Mara had no idea what had happened to those Gods and Goddesses, but one thing that she was sure about was that Mykel did that. She didn't know how, but the fact he could change reality in a blink of an eye was terrifyingly impressive.

Knowing that the meeting was a failure to bring Mykel to the hall, she ended the meeting. She left the hall, leaving all the Constellations in an awkward situation.

Hera and all the heads of Major Arcana looked at the situation and were surprised when they saw Mykel massacre all the Awakeners. They were furious and their hatred was similar to what the other Constellations felt.

(Inside the Babel Tower)

"(Wow, you're really good at this. I never thought you used your Admin skill to modified their story and made them forget about your existence...)" Bhatmelec said as she looked at Mykel closing the prompt screen in front of him. "(She's furious and I believe that should be enough, right?)" Bhatmelec asked.

"(I wonder if it's really enough though. I can still have a few plans to make her lose her mind)" Mykel chuckled and extinguished all the flames. "(Should I go and pay them a visit? Maybe kill all the Gods there?)" Mykel raised his eyebrow and jokingly asked.

"(That would only gain you nothing since Mara doesn't even care if there are fewer Gods in this world)" Bhatmelec answered.

Mykel already knew that, so he decided to go and check out the ninety-first floor. He wanted to see if the whole floor was actually empty with nobody residing on that floor. When he went straight to the top of the Babel Tower from outside. He entered the tower and looked at the giant golden door in front of him. That place was where Elenna killed Michael and Gabriel.

He opened the gate and was immediately welcomed by a vast land with nothing but a breezy wind and soft grass with trees on the sides.

"It's really empty," Mykel said as he looked at his surroundings.

Bhatmelec looked at the long stairway into the sky in the distance. The place where they both stood was basically the entrance for the mortal to enter Empyrean World after Michael and Gabriel let them pass. But now it was turned into a residing place for Luciel, or at least used to be.

Mykel went straight up the stairs but was blocked by an invincible wall. It was the system that prevented him from moving forward, but then a notification appeared. It was a prompt that his [Admin] skill could intervene and helped him ignore the restriction.

"That's nice, but it's useless," Mykel said as he looked a the notification.

"What are you talking about? Isn't that feature should have been there the moment you became a Domain Admin? It's just that you have never used it," Bhatmelec looked at Mykel with her eyebrows raised.

"You might be right," Mykel answered as he closed the screen in front of him.

"(By the way, since you're already the Head Admin from your Admin skill, what do you think comes after that? I believe Head Admin is the highest point, no?)" Bhatmelec asked telepathically.

"(Administrator is someone who monitors and makes changes to something that's already there. With that being said, I believe the last one should be the owner of the system. The moment I became the owner of the system, I can turn everything upside down with a single move of my finger)" Mykel answered as he sat down and enjoyed the breeze because it was hot down there.

Bhatmelec hummed as she sat down next to him on the soft grass in her long white dress. They both enjoyed the silence as they waited for Lucifer to finish his job.

"(By the way, are you seriously going to keep it that way? I'm talking about them not knowing your existence. They must be so pissed when they heard an entity massacred their Recipients.)" Bhatmelec asked.

"(Oh, it has been always my plan. They're all nothing but my stepping stone. I don't need them for the endgame since I already have everything that I need)" Mykel answered as he lit his cigarette in his mouth. "(All my hard work to reach this moment is all thanks to my ability)" Mykel continued.

"(Your ability? And what's that supposed to mean? Your Admin skill?)" Bhatmelec asked.

"(No. The ability to play on their emotions)" Mykel answered as he stared right into Bhatmelec's eye. "(You're all playing Gods to those mortals as your only source of entertainment. Thinking you guys are all high and mighty when someone appeared out of nowhere and started playing with your feeling and emotions. Giving them the taste of power, addiction, desire, and even the feeling of affection. You guys are no different than those mortals)" Mykel continued.

Mykel stood up and looked at Bhatmelec and asked, "How does it feel to taste your own medicine?"

"Nothing, because in the end, I'm in the presence of a higher being. After all, we are created for this," Bhatmelec answered with a gentle smile on her face. "But those emotions, feelings, and affections that you showed to them, not all of them are lies. I have been inside you long enough to understand your feelings," Bhatmelec pointed out as she chuckled.

Mykel scoffed as he smoked his cigarette, and then Lucifer came and landed right in front of them.

"Did I miss something?" Lucifer asked.

Mykel canceled his [Devil's Apparition] and let Lucifer understand what had happened earlier. He then summoned Lucifer just a few seconds after he put him back. Lucifer was surprised after he remembered everything as if it were his own memories.

"What are we going to do now? I have placed hundreds of strong demons near the portal entrance into Gehenna. There won't be anyone that can leave alive," Lucifer asked as he looked at Mykel.

"Nothing, at least for now. Let's wait until she's frustrated and anxious. Let the water boil a bit more," Mykel answered.
