Destroying My Own Novel
Chapter 414 413: Becoming Demi-Gods.

All the Gods left after agreeing with Mykel's plan, and they all had to stay hidden because the chance of Mara looking for them was high. She tried to replace even a single piece of information, and so Mykel told them to ask for his protection if Mara decided to invade their worlds. He would bring them to Earth since it was a safe place or any other words that were currently being invaded by demons.

Mykel got up and looked at the Soul Catcher Sword on the table in front of him. He held it and the sword was rejecting him to its fullest power to stop him from holding it. He tried to endure it as he walked toward Jeanne to give the sword back.

"Take it," Mykel said as he offered the sword with his hand trembling.

Jeanne saw it since the sword made a rattling sound, and she immediately took the sword from his hand. Mykel held his wrist and couldn't believe it was that powerful. He had bad intentions with the sword, and that was why the sword began to harm him.

"Is it over?" Jeanne asked.

"Yes," Mykel said as he massaged his right hand and wrist, but then Jeanne took his hand and tried to relieve it. "Let's talk somewhere else," Mykel looked at Jeanne caressing his hand.

Jeanne hummed. "Let's go to the secret garden. It's on top of the palace," Jeanne smiled as she stood up and kept holding his hand.

They both left the hall and went all the way up to the secret garden. Of course, everyone noticed them leaving, but the only one who decided to follow them was Agnez.

"Haah... stupid dress!" Agnez ripped the skirt all the way up to her left thigh to make her easy to move.

Agnez looked around and since she barely knew about the place, she decided to keep going up. She could sense Mykel's presence above her, so she believed Jeanne and Mykel were going to the rooftop.

Mykel and Jeanne entered the secret garden, and the reason why it was called a secret garden was that nobody knew about it except the Royal family. Jeanne then brought him into the greenhouse and sat down at the wide round table.

Before Jeanne and Mykel could talk, Agnez entered the greenhouse and she didn't even feel bad for interrupting them.

"What are you two hiding from me?" Agnez asked as she walked to the table.

Mykel smiled and tapped the table in front of him with his left hand. "Sit here," he said as he looked at Agnez. "You sit here, Jeanne," Mykel tapped the table with his right hand.

They both sat on top of the table, and then Mykel put his hands on their cheeks. "You both are going to play an important role in the future," Mykel said as he gently rubbed their cheeks.

"I want to make Jeanne a God, Agnez. I'm going to make her a God and only her," Mykel said as he looked at Agnez. "The reason is that I need her to fight by my side with the other Gods and Goddesses," Mykel explained, and Agnez looked a bit jealous.

"Just her? Why?" Agnez asked and she sounded a bit irritated. Jeanne looked at Agnez and understood her feelings. "You think I'm not worthy of becoming a God?" Agnez asked again, but this time she looked Mykel in the eye.

"Because if you become a God, I can't defeat someone in the future that powerful enough to make Gods and any divine beings powerless," Mykel answered calmly. "I need you to become an Archdemon and a Demi-god at the same time, the strongest hybrid that's powerful enough to go against that being. So powerful that you're the only one who can defeat him," Mykel continued.

"I need power from both sides of the coin. A god," Mykel looked at Jeanne. "And a demon," Mykel looked at Agnez. "Just because you're not a God, doesn't mean you can't be stronger than them. I promise you that you will be on par with Jeanne in the future," Mykel tried to convince Agnez by caressing her cheek and putting his thumb on her lips.

"Who's that being you're talking about?" Jeanne asked.

Mykel pointed his index finger at the Soul Catcher Sword that Jeanne had put on the table.

"Lucifer's brother. The strongest being of his kind," Mykel answered. "That being is the last piece that I needed. I'm planning to bring him out. But, it would be safer if he possessed your body, Jeanne, once you became a God," Mykel said as he looked at Jeanne.

"So you're trying to make her like me? To have someone possess her body?" Agnez asked.

"Yes, but there's a slight problem with that," Mykel answered.

Both Jeanne and Agnez looked at each other with confused looks.

"It will be the other way around. Your body will be taken over by him, and the first thing he would do is seek revenge for what Lucifer did to him. In other words, we, the Gods have to fight him, subjugate him," Mykel said as he sat down and looked at both of them sitting on the table next to each other.

"Didn't you say that will make you powerless if you fight him?" Agnez asked.

Mykel nodded. "That's why you'll be the one who has to subjugate him. I'll try to bring Jeanne back and take control over his soul," Mykel answered. "You might have to bring all your sisters to fight him as well," Mykel continued.

"Hmm," Agnez wiggled her hanging foot as she nodded her head with understanding. "So that means once I subjugate him, and Jeanne got back to her sense, you can make me a God?" Agnez asked.

"Are you sure you want to become a God? Live with rules of Constellations? You aren't allowed to interfere with the tower clearance ever again. Not to mention, you're not allowed to hurt a single life. Do you want that?" Mykel asked with a serious expression.

"Are you being serious? That's lame..." Agnez asked and immediately lost interest in becoming a God.

"Yes, being almighty but being restrained is useless. Unlike me, I have something that those Gods don't have no matter how powerful they are, which is why they're all following me," Mykel answered.

Mykel stood up and stared at Jeanne with a restless expression. He wanted to [Modify] one of her skills and turn it into [Semi-Deus] skill, but he hesitated.

"Do you trust me, Jeanne?" Mykel asked as he held her hands.

Jeanne nodded her head with confidence, and then Mykel activated his [Admin] skill, and replaced Jeanne's less useful skill with a [Semi-Deus] skill. He then replaced another skill with [Deus Obcisor].

Mykel looked at Jeanne and waited to see if Mara would take her away or not. He was anxious, but he didn't show it to them and kept on staring at her.

After a whole five minutes of nothingness, he could safely say that it worked and Jeanne was safe from Mara's grasp.

"Look at your status screen," Mykel said as he sat down.

"Semi Deus, Deus Obcisor..." Jeanne said as she read the skills descriptions. "I never knew that a normal human can't interact with God. What's that mean?" Jeanne asked and looked at Mykel.

"You can't harm a God and speak to them telepathically. You're now able to communicate with the Gods, but not directly or telepathically. If you ever need to speak with them, you can call their names, and they will know. Also, you are now able to hurt a God," Mykel answered.

Mykel turned Agnez into a Demi-god as well and gave her [Deus Obscisor] skill. They both didn't feel any difference at all, and that was normal knowing their skills level were uncapped.

While they were discussing about the plan of taking Hanessi's remaining soul that Lucifer had hidden in the Empyrean world, they saw a notification in front of them. The Fraternity Association cleared the thirtieth floor of the Mahazael Tower.

"Huh, they're clearing the Mahazael Tower? That's interesting," Agnez said as she closed the notification.

"Looks like the Chimeras are really powerful," Mykel said as he closed the gift tab. "That's good news, I bet they're going to clear the Beelzebub Tower soon," Mykel continued.
