Destroying My Own World

Chapter 278 Together.

Everyone was petrified when they saw Jeanne and Aurea's bodies scattered on the ground. It was the most gruesome thing that had happened to them, and it could be the worst thing they had ever seen. But since Jeanne and Aurea possessed Elena's life energy inside their bodies, their bodies instantly regenerated as if nothing had happened to them.

Mykel's eerie presence, shrouded in the abyss, sent shivers down the spines of everyone on the battlefield. His expression remained inscrutable, hidden behind the malevolent force that had consumed him. The lingering uncertainty about his intentions only added to the tension that hung in the air.

Aurea who was still in her [Lunacy] state, she immediately threw punches and kicks at Mykel. Jeanne on the other hand, she regrouped with Elena and Bhatmelec because she never thought she was on the brink of death in a blink of an eye. She wasn't scared, she regrouped because she needed the sword to regenerate before she could rejoin Aurea.

"As long as I'm alive, nothing can kill you," Elena said as she looked at Jeanne. "And one more thing," she paused and glanced at Aurea who seemed to get stronger than before. "The more you die, the stronger you become because of my Renewal skill. In the long run, we should be able to overpower him," she explained.

Jeanne hummed with understanding as she looked at her armor and sword that was still regenerating. She still could feel the pain and the feeling of when her limbs were torn and ripped apart.

"How long until they're done preparing?" Elena asked as she glanced at Rozan and the others gathered.

"Who knows, but I'm going to need Vincze on my side right now," Bhatmelec said as she looked at Vincze.

"Then bring him here if you really need him," Elena responded.

Bhatmelec spoke to Vincze telepathically and then he turned his head to look at her. He nodded his head with understanding and then hurriedly flew to her side with his spear ready. Bhatmelec asked him about Rozan's preparation, and Vincze answered that he still needed time. She then explained to him about the plan so they could buy time for Rozan and the others.

"Do you think it would work?" Vincze asked.

"It will work," Bhatmelec answered as she nodded her head. "We will need Sven, Gunnar, and Enma," she pointed out.

Sven, Gunnar, and Enma came after Bhatmelec summoned them and told them about her plan. The three of them then decided to join the fight with Aurea and they were ready to die after they heard about Elena's power.

Gunnar and Enma, both of them got their skills upgraded from [Outlast] skill and became [Survivor]. It made them survive no matter how severe their injuries were, and it gave them instant regeneration.

"I really don't want to do this, but we need you two to do this," Bhatmelec said as she looked at Gunnar and Enma.

"No need to mention it. This is our job and it's been a while for both of us to be useful to you guys," Gunnar shook his head. "I'm glad that we can be of help now," he continued as he looked at his shield.

"Let's do this, Gunnar," Sven patted Gunnar's shoulder.

Sven, Gunnar, and Enma go to face Mykel and help Aurea since she started to struggle to deal with Mykel's abyssal form. Even with Elena's power, Aurea still couldn't handle the corruption from touching Mykel's abyssal form. She was weakened by it which made her growth stagnate.

Sven wrapped his scythe with Elena's life energy and joined the battle as he activated his [Boundless] skill. He felt the surge of power running through him because of Elena's power and he felt like he was at the peak. He swung his scythe at Mykel and managed to harm Mykel with it, but the moment Mykel paid attention to him, he was as good as dead. Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Before Mykel could grab Sven, Gunnar pushed Sven away and bashed his shield against Mykel's body. When he thought it would knock Mykel back, his shield was sucked into the abyss. Thankfully, Aurea was there to kick Mykel away and then used the same method as Sven by wrapping her fists and feet with Elena's life energy.

Sven came back and backstabbed Mykel with his scythe which was enough to annoy Mykel. Aurea and Sven were more annoying compared to Aurea and Jeanne since Sven's power and weapon made him hard to read. But Sven's attack wasn't as deadly as Jeanne's.

Whenever Mykel tried to deal with Sven and Aurea at the same time, Gunnar and Enma would interfere and become Sven and Aurea's meat shield. Mykel had enough of them and when he was about to make them disappear, Jeanne came out of nowhere and cut his throat. She then threw a backkick and sent Mykel away from the others and immediately appeared right behind him.

Mykel summoned the spikes right below Jeanne's feet, but she dodged them as she spun and swung her sword as strong as she could. She screamed her lungs out as she cut Mykel's body in half, and that was when the world started to crumble.

Mykel saw Jeanne glaring at him and even though he lost his bottom half, he created more spikes around her. Jeanne dodged all of them as if she could see the future, and that was when Mykel realized that Vincze and Bhatmelec had something to do with her movements. Mykel then decided to turn into a formless abyss and flew away to recover, but Elena waited for him to leave and she blasted the abyss and scraped it little by little.

The power that Elena used was more than Mykel expected and it felt like he had been attacked by it even before Elena blasted him. Mykel was convinced that Vincze and Bhatmelec were the ones who guided them, or perhaps let Jeanne and Elena see the future.

Mykel was confident that his world couldn't be altered by any means unless Amaryllis and Lyneth made it possible. He then decided to target those two since they played a bigger role as support. But before he could do so, Manna, Brynhilde, Lexus, Nexus, Euros, and the others joined the fight knowing Mykel had been weakened by Jeanne's [Austerity] skill.

Mykel couldn't properly use his power knowing everyone was fighting him and Jeanne who lurked in and kept landing every hit she threw at him. He then decided to take all the power that he distributed from creating his own world. The moment he regained all his power back, he released a blast of darkness and corrupted every one of them.

"Now!" Rozan shouted.

The combined Demon Princesses flew in and appeared right in front of Mykel in an instant, they then activated [Fracture], [Absolute], [Glacial Heart], [Mephistopheles], [Hellion], and [Shyster] skills around him. Mykel couldn't move a muscle and he felt like his whole body was being crushed. When he was about to free himself, Amaryllis once again blocked the power within him. Not only that, Amaryllis had registered the planet they were on, and that made Edith use her [Cosmic Arbiter] and pressure Mykel even more.

Nagy and Lillith came and both activated their [Phantasm] and [Abysmal] skills. Nagy created a small reality around Mykel and she used the same method as him by impaling him with spikes made from the abyss itself. Lillith stole Mykel's [Singularity] skill and she succeeded Thanks to Amaryllis, Edith, and the Demon Princesses. She then used the [Singularity] skill and destroyed the reality of Mykel's world.

The moment Lillith destroyed reality, they managed to erase that world and bring everyone back to the real world. That was when The Lord used all his might and created the universe once again and not only that, he also put Mykel in a space where he could confine Mykel with the Demon Princesses' help.

Lillith couldn't even last a second with the overwhelming and ominous power within her, she then canceled her [Absymal] skill and gave the power back to Mykel. Her whole body had been corrupted, she was a lost cause but Elena hurriedly grabbed her and infused her life energy to renew the corrupted Lillith.

"This is all yours, take all my power," The Lord said to the Demon Princesses.

They used the [Duality] skill and absorbed the divine power within The Lord's body to strengthen their other skills to confine Mykel. They confined him in a cube, and then Shelly came and created White Holes around the cube and compressed the space. The White Holes released Elena's life energy and the purpose was to feed the hunger until the abyss itself disappeared.

"Together we're stronger..." Rozan sighed and he was still anxious even though the plan worked flawlessly.

After listening to Beldathiel and Elena's explanations about Mykel's world, he realized that his plan wouldn't work as long as Mykel had his power spread around the universe if they wanted to bring him down. So his plan was to force Mykel to put all his power in his body, just like Mykel's plan to bring all The Lords together before he could take him down. To put it simply, Rozan used the same strategy that Mykel used against The Lord.

"I hate to say this, but it's not over yet. We don't know if we can satiate his hunger," Elena pointed out as she looked at Mykel as the darkness and the abyss on his body started to scrape away from his body.
