Destroying My Own World

Chapter 132 I know you more than anyone.

The world once more attained peace, but that peace didn't last long unlike before. A few days after the world had taken care of all the demon invasion, another one appeared and this time on a bigger scale. More and more people died, and the population had dropped to forty percent.

South America had lost everything and the population there was only five percent. South America was a lost cause, and nobody could save them even if they wanted to. Thanks to that, more and more demons went to other continents to invade, and now both Antarctica and South America had become demons' nests.

Europe and Asia had created their own Union to work together, but the Guild League was still above them. More and more talented Chosen Ones joined the Guild League rather than joining the Union of their own continent. It only brought the Guild League more authority and power while the Union struggled to get strong Chosen Ones.

Although the European Union, Asia Union, and the Guild League were not on friendly terms, they decided to join forces for one reason. They were warned, notified, and ordered by their Gods to fight Mykel Alester as he was the reason why it happened.

At first, they didn't understand what that meant until they saw that the United States was safe from the demon invasion. None of the demons from South America or Antarctica went there, and there was no news about the demon invasion from the portal in Montana.

They realized that something was off about it, and the fact that Mykel and his team went into portals around the world before it all happened. They assumed that he was the culprit behind the demon invasions, but they needed to confirm that first. That was when they were planning to go to the United States once the invasion was over.

That plan of theirs was immediately forgotten because the demon invasion didn't stop, in fact, the demons kept invading with no sign of stopping. A lot of friends, allies, and brothers were killed. Hundreds and even a thousand strong Chosen Ones had fallen because of the invasion. The whole world struggled and they fought relentlessly without fear of death since their hatred and anger had overcome their fear.

Mykel watched the news in the living room with little Sasha as the population had dropped two percent from the beginning of the second invasion. Suddenly Lyneth entered the penthouse and removed her suit as she walked to the living room where he was at.

"Mykel, did something happen to Elena?" Lyneth asked as she sat next to Mykel and looked at him with concern.

"What? What's wrong?" Mykel asked.

"She has been spending most of her time around me for the past week. She only did that when she's either feeling down or she did something wrong," Lyneth answered.

Mykel already knew that Elena had been avoiding him because she was feeling awkward whenever she was with him. She was forcing herself like nothing had happened, but that only made her feel awkward. Mykel knew that so he let her have time for herself to calm herself down.

"She didn't tell you why?" Mykel asked as he gave a pencil to little Sasha since she also wanted to draw something.

"No. I did ask her, but she said that she just wanted to spend her time with me. She literally stayed by my side the whole day," Lyneth answered as she looked at the paper on the table with a drawing on it. "Did you make that?" Lyneth asked as she grabbed the paper.

"Are you serious? She looked at you with lust. How did you not see that?" Helen asked and continued drawing. "How far did you go? Full on throttle or just a kiss?" Helen asked.

"Just a kiss," Mykel answered as he went to grab the gin. "So she has been looking at me that long..." Mykel said as he walked back and then drank the gin.

"What are you going to do with her?" Helen asked. "You know what. That's none of my business. You do you, and I'm not going to judge you," Helen continued.

Mykel kept drinking and didn't realize he almost emptied the bottle in just a few seconds.

"That's my last bottle. Are you seriously going to drink all that?" Helen asked without even looking.

"I can give you a hundred of this," Mykel said as he scoffed and smirked.

"Shit. Are you trying to poison me? Just bring me a bottle of that and I'll let it pass," Helen said as she chuckled in disbelief and shook her head. "Do you want it done today? If so, it would be done by midnight," Helen asked.

"I have all the time you need. Just take your time, and I'll be waiting here since you might be lonely staying here on your own," Mykel answered as he emptied the bottle.

"How sweet of you," Helen said sarcastically.

"Have you watched the news lately?" Mykel asked with curiosity.

"Of course. You have been a hot topic the past few weeks, and I saw everything on the news as well," Helen answered and she wasn't bothered by it. "If that's the reason why you were standing still in front of my shop, then you must have underestimated me. I don't care about what you did because I know you more than anyone else in this world," Helen continued.

"People said something about wanting you to be punished either by the other Awakeners or by the Gods with their divine punishment," Helen paused. "I'm not a believer, I don't believe in Gods and whatever they called them since the world has always been unfair, so I have no time to believe in something that has never been fair to me," Helen continued as she leaned her head back to look at the drawing to see if it looked perfect.

"Whatever you're doing, go for it. We both are survivors, and we will do whatever it takes to survive. Kill as many people as you want if you have to. Show the world that Gods can't save them all," Helen said and continued drawing the background. "We both don't believe in God, so do whatever you want until God himself comes down to Earth to punish you. Life is short, why bother worrying about anything, right?" Helen asked as she looked at Mykel.

"I think I'm in love with you," Mykel said jokingly.

"Shut the fuck up and just buy me a bottle of gin. You're bothering me from creating my masterpiece," Helen replied as she chuckled with a huge smile.
