Destroying My Own Novel -
Chapter 32
32 Chapter 31: Admin (Lv.2).
"So this admin skill level follows the progress of the story. Now I understand why I can't level it up no matter how many times I meditate," Mykel said to himself as he looked at his own status screen.
Mykel stared at the tall building on the other side of District 1 that could be compared to the Guild Association building. The building belonged to Kastor and Caesar the moment they left the Guild Association and made their own company that was similar to Guild Association. They called their company Fraternity and their fame was skyrocketing over the past three months and it was thanks to Kastor and Caesar.
"Excuse me, Mister Mykel, are you looking for me?" Edith asked with her head peeking from the door.
"Yes, can you come here for a second?" Mykel said as he leaned on his desk. Edith closed the door behind her and walked toward Mykel. "How's everyone doing?" he asked.
"Since last week, we have cleared up to the ninth floor of all towers and we are still at the top compared to the Awakeners from Fraternity since they can only clear the seventh floor of all towers, but..." Edith paused and looked at Mykel with concern. "Districts 8, 9, 11, and 12 have decided to go under the Fraternity and we lose the exclusive access to the tower in those districts," she continued.
"You don't have to worry about that. Lyneth and I knew about this already and we let it happens, and if they decided to turn their back on us, then we won't help them no matter how many times they're going to beg to come back," Mykel answered calmly with a smile on his face.
Edith looked at Mykel with confusion but she didn't want to ask the reason behind it. "Also, here is the report of the items that we got from the secret rooms," she said and gave the document to Mykel.
Mykel looked at the list of scrolls and items that they got from the secret rooms. Nothing caught his eye since all of them were useless to him. "I see, how many of these items that Gunnars and the others want to take?" he asked as he looked at Edith.
"None, they already reached the max level on all of the scrolls on the list. The items aren't that good for them as well since they already have better gears on them," Edith answered.
"I see, then it's time to put them all in the auction, we will show them that we still hold the power over the Awakeners. Also, nothing less than a billion zeny for all those on the list," Mykel said as he gave back the document. "Do a background check on every people that will join the auction. If they're not from one of ours, don't let them join the auction," he continued.
"Yes, I will take care of it right away," Edith replied and bowed her head.
"Before you leave, can you tell Jeanne to come to my office?" Mykel asked and sat on his chair.
"Yes, I will tell Jeanne right away. Please excuse me," Edith answered and then left the office.
Asmond had awakened a week ago based on the information that Mykel got from Jeanne. It was the same in the original story even though the story had changed quite drastically since the Fraternity didn't exist in the story and all the small associations that they had.
Gunnar and the others also got the same Benefactor in the original story, so everything was still under the system's control unless Mykel decided to modify it. It looked more interesting than he thought and he couldn't help but get excited about how the story changed its course because of his action.
"If the timeline was still the same, that means the second breakout will happen soon," Mykel said to himself.
Mykel heard a knock on the door. "Come in,"
Jeanne walked in and immediately sat on the sofa while Mykel sat down in front of her. "So how's Asmond doing?" he asked as he lit his cigarette.
"He's still trying to raise his level and right now he's still level 2," Jeanne replied.
Mykel hummed and nodded with understanding. "Do you want to help him, Jeanne?"
"Huh? Help him? But I still haven't told him about the truth that I'm an Awakener so I don't know how to approach him and tell him about this," Jeanne answered and she felt unease when she thought about it.
"Do you still remember what I said back then, Jeanne?" Mykel asked as he leaned his body forward.
"That I don't have to tell him if I don't want to," Jeanne said.
"That's right, so when you think it's the right time to tell him, just tell him. You don't have to ask for my permission since I didn't own you and you can do whatever you want," Mykel explained and then he stood up while smoking his cigarette. "Just tell me if you decided to follow him instead of me," he continued and walked back to his chair.
Jeanne just stared at Mykel and thought about what he just said, she could tell that there was sadness in his words when he said that. She remembered the good times she had with him and the others, she didn't want those good times to disappear just because of a friend.
"Can he join your team once his level is high enough, Mykel?" Jeanne asked.
Mykel stopped walking and put his hand on top of the chair. "I'm looking for a talented Awakener, Jeanne. If he's not talented, I'm afraid I don't want him in the team no matter what," he explained. "Not everyone is born with talent, and you know that. So, don't put yourself in the same place with those Awakeners out there because you're different and you have proven it with your own blood and sweat," Mykel said as he sat down and stared at Jeanne.
Jeanne nodded with understanding while she was looking at Mykel. "I understand, but I believe he will become one of the best Awakeners since he never loses hope," she said with confidence in her voice.
Mykel smirked and stared at Jeanne. "I hope so too,"
"You can leave, Jeanne. You must be exhausted from clearing the towers, you should get some rest," Mykel said.
Jeanne nodded and then left the office.
Mykel looked at his [Admin] skill and decided to check the difference from before. He opened the command prompt and type his own name in the Awakener list.
[NAME: Mykel Alester]
[LEVEL: 100]
[AFFINITY: NEUTRAL-EVIL]
[BENEFACTOR(S): NONE]
[ARCANA COIN: 21,800] [SHOP]
[SKILL(S): ADMIN (Lv.2), STEALTH (Lv.10), ACCELERATE (Lv.10), POISON RESISTANCE (Lv.10), PAIN RESISTANCE (Lv.10), RECOVERY (Lv.10), MEDITATION (Lv.10), MIND-STABILITY (Lv.10), PERCEPTION (Lv.10), MIGHT (Lv.10), BODY ENHANCEMENT (Lv.10), PYROKINESIS, MAGIC (Lv.10) TYRANNIZE, DESIRE, DUPLICATE, FIGHTER-APEX, FIRE RESISTANCE (Lv.10), KEEN (Lv.10), CRITICAL (Lv.10)...]
"So many of my skills have evolved, my Charm skill has changed to Desire, my Imitate skill has changed to Duplicate, my Heat Resistance skill has changed to Fire Resistance. I maxed my fighter skill already and got myself a lot of useful skills during my solo runs in the towers," Mykel said as he stared at his status screen.
Mykel looked at the [Skill(s)] button and gulped as his index finger tapped on it.
[ACCESS GRANTED!]
[PLEASE SELECT AND MODIFY YOUR [SKILL TAB]!]
Mykel lifted his head as he smirked with disbelief, he finally could modify his skill and there were a lot of skills he wanted. He then looked at the skills he had and unfortunately, he couldn't add an extra skill from an empty slot, he could only modify the skills that he had either to change their level or replaced them with another skill.
"I could combine these skills together if I get another skill with the same element but do I really need that skill right now? I don't think it's necessary for now," Mykel mumbled to himself as he rubbed his chin.
Mykel planned on replacing [Meditation] skill since he didn't need it anymore because he could just easily change the skills he desire. So he tapped on the [Meditation] skill and a notification appeared in front of him.
[ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO MODIFY [MEDITATION (Lv.10)]?]
[YES.] [NO.]
"Yes," Mykel said as he tapped on the [Yes] button.
[PLEASE SELECT THE SKILL YOU WANT TO GET]
Thousands of skills just popped on the command prompt, and Mykel was dumbfounded there were so many skills on the screen. He started to scroll down and checked all the skills from the top to replace the skill he wanted or at least that could help him.
Mykel chuckled with disbelief when he saw that he could get all the Benefactor exclusive skills with the command. He then decided to replace the one skill that he had in mind and only that Goddess that could give such unbelievable skill.
[ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO REPLACE [MEDITATION (Lv.10)] WITH [SEMIDEUS]?]
[YES.] [NO.]
Mykel smirked and tapped the [Yes] button.
[You have attained a new skill!]
[Open your status screen to check it out!]
[Semideus (Passive) (Benefactor Exclusive): Ascend the User and stand equally with the Constellations. The User will have access to all the information of all the Constellation. The User can interact and communicate with the Constellations]
[All Constellations are watching you with all kinds of emotions]
[The Goddess of All is watching you with a smile on her face]
Mykel smirked and looked at the notification. "So you finally decide to show yourself,"
