Destroying My Own Novel
Chapter 469 468: Bhatmelec.

"Good night, Jeanne, Mykel," Brynhilde stood up after the three of them had a lot of drinks while they were waiting for the nighttime. Brynhilde was curious about Jeanne's story and how she became a Goddess. She listened to the story for hours and finally understood the situation and what Mykel's goal was.

"Good night, Bryn," Jeanne waved and smiled as she watched Brynhilde leave the private dining room.

There was still half a bottle left and decided to enjoy it before they started collecting Bhatmelec's soul.

"It's time," Mykel said as he looked at the empty bottle in front of him. "Are you nervous?" Mykel asked.

"As long as you're guiding me, I think everything should be fine," Jeanne answered as she swirled the glass of wine in her right hand.

They both went all the way up to the palace's rooftop, the secret garden. They looked at the city and there was nobody on the street. It was just silence and the sound of the chill wind hitting their garments.

Mykel activated the [Nigh-Omnipotence] skill and tried to expand it as far as he could. He could feel all the terrains that the [Nigh-Omnipotence] covered like a map. He kept doing it until he realized he had covered the whole Aersland World with his skill.

"I can see everything," Mykel said as he started to float in the air without wings or magic. "Let's put everyone to sleep first," Mykel closed his eyes and put everyone in a deep sleep.

"You can do that?" Jeanne asked in disbelief.

"Yes, but I have never used it this way. In fact, I barely use this skill," Mykel answered. "Now that everyone is asleep, how about you try and use your Caelestikinesis skill?" Mykel asked.

Jeanne flew up high into the sky and could see dots of light on the ground. She had never seen a lot of them before since those were divine powers. She then tried to extract all of them very carefully.

Mykel watched those fragments of souls being lifted from the ground. They looked like stars, and then Jeanne slowly and carefully combined them all together. The fragment became as big as a basketball, and the soul was still incomplete. They then proceed to go to all the other areas and extract the rest of them.

It took them two hours until Jeanne extracted all of Bhatmelec's soul, and it had become as big as a blue whale. Jeanne then tried to press it into a smaller size, and that was when a mini supernova burst. Luckily, Mykel absorbed and suppressed the blast thanks to his [Nigh-Omnipotence] skill.

"Who are you?!" A soothing woman's voice echoed throughout the sky. "Why do you possess Hanessi's power?" It was the soul who spoke with them.

"(She's trying to manifest and form a body)" Jeanne said to Mykel.

"(Don't let her)" Mykel replied.

"Answer me!" Bhatmelec yelled.

Mykel activated [Devil Apparation] since it would be best for Bhatmelec to understand the situation she was in. Lucifer came out of Mykel's body and stared at Bhatmelec's soul with a smirk on his face.

"Lucifer! It was you all along!" Bhatmelec's soul started to vibrate but couldn't do anything else.

"You're wrong, it wasn't me. Don't you see what I have become?" Lucifer asked as he spread his arms and wings.

Bhatmelec could see Lucifer's body was hollow and didn't possess a single divine power inside. She went silent for a bit and started to resist again.

"What's the meaning of this?! Let me go!" Bhatmelec yelled.

"You have been asleep for a very long time, sister. The world that you know has long gone, and a new era of Gods raised," Lucifer answered. "With that being said, all of our siblings have been devoured, and you're the only one left," Lucifer explained.

"(Mykel, who's going to take her soul?)" Jeanne glanced at Mykel.

"(If you want you can have her)" Mykel answered as he listened to Lucifer and Bhatmalec's conversation.

Mykel didn't mind since he could take her skills with his [Duplicate] skill. During the extraction, Mykel had already taken [Caelestikinesis] from Jeanne.

"(I don't want to experience it again, Mykel. Why don't you take it this time?)" Jeanne offered as she kept suppressing Bhatmalec's soul.

"(Are you sure?)" Mykel glanced at Jeanne.

Jeanne slowly nodded her head.

"(Alright, put her soul into my body)" Mykel answered. "(She might try to resist when she possesses my body, so when it happens, I want you to just focus on giving the Empyreanian new power as we promised to Brynhilde)" Mykel continued.

Bhatmelec was still talking when suddenly her soul started to move slowly toward Mykel. "What are you doing?! What are you trying to do to me?!" Bhatmelec asked as she tried to resist.

"You're going to be like me, sister. Fodder for a greater being," Lucifer answered as he floated next to Mykel.

"No! No!" Bhatmelec yelled as she was forced to enter Mykel's body.

Mykel felt a bit of warmth inside his chest as soon as Bhatmelec's soul entered his body. He didn't feel a thing, just like when Lucifer entered his body, but it immediately changed when she started to resist. He could feel his heartbeat stop beating and he instantly felt weak.

Mykel was free-falling and before he hit the ground with his head first, Jeanne caught him and landed in her arms. His whole body was so cold, and he didn't breathe. The first thing she checked was his heartbeat, and there was no pulse inside his body.

"What happened to him?!" Jeanne asked Lucifer.

"Use your Caelestikinesis skill on him and seal all his skills, hurry!" Lucifer answered as he landed next to her.

Jeanne used her [Caelestikinesis] skill on Mykel and sealed all the powers inside him. Lucifer disappeared because of it. She then checked his pulse and it started beating again, but it was so slow and weak.

She didn't know what to do and kept holding Mykel so tightly.

After she took a deep breath and could think clearly, she decided to bring Mykel back to the palace. She was still anxious, but she decided to let him rest and did the task he gave her.

The morning came, and she returned to check on him, but he was still unconscious. She still didn't know what to do and hoped that he would wake up soon.

Mykel opened his eyes and noticed he was floating in the sky, but he wasn't in the Aersland World. He looked down and saw nothing but thick clouds under his feet. Instead of floating, he could walk as if there were an invisible floor.

"Who are you?" A woman covered in a white dress that covered her whole body and legs. She wore a white and gold-lined cape and hood that covered half of her face. It wasn't just a cape, but it was her wings as well. "A body of a mortal who possessed divine energy that I have never seen before," She lifted her head and looked down at Mykel with a giant gold halo above her head.

"You're asking me after you tried to stop my heart with your power?" Mykel asked with his eyebrows raised.

"Acting high and mighty even though knowing your life is in my hand?" Bhatmelec asked as she scoffed with a smirk. "Do you realize that we both are trapped here until one of us gives up? Since I have been asleep for centuries, I can do this forever, but not you," Bhatmelec said as she walked toward Mykel.

Mykel knew what kind of situation he was in the moment he realized he couldn't use anything or speak with Lucifer. That only meant Jeanne used [Caelestikinesis] skill on him which also meant that Bhatmelec couldn't use anything.

"You're not wrong, but that doesn't mean we both can't hurt each other," Mykel cracked his knuckles, wrists, and neck.

"A mortal trying to fight a Celestial being? I would love to see you try," Bhatmelec smiled mockingly.

Mykel dashed forward and threw a left hook on her right ribs. She felt the pain, and it hurt more than she thought. While she was dumbfounded by the fact she was hurting, she saw a right fist in front of her face.

Bhatmelec got punched in the fast and knocked her down. She groaned in pain as she covered her nose with her left hand.

"Do you think you're the only Celestial being here?" Mykel asked as he sat on top of Bhatmelec's body. "You're a Celestial being, but you have never been in a street fight before. So I'll show you what pain and despair are like," Mykel smiled in excitement.
