Chapter 384 Lively.
Melissa, Zachary, Javelin, and Aston arrived at the Queen's palace after the guards escorted them. They were expecting Elestria or Elysande to see them, but it appeared none of them were there. They wanted the palace and they still didn't see them, and made them wonder what they should do.
"Her Majesty and Lady Elysande are currently in the dining hall. Her Majesty said to guide all the guests there, please follow me," A servant said as soon as he saw those four entering the palace.
Without saying anything they followed the servant through the hall and went to the west side of the palace. When the servant opened the door for them into the dining hall, they were dumbfounded when they saw Mykel. They didn't see his face since they only saw his back, but his posture and his aura around him made them realize it was him.
Mykel stopped eating his food and put the knife and fork down when they were still shocked by his presence. He turned around to look at them and then smiled as he looked with his eyebrows raised. He then stood up and looked at Zachary because Zachary was no longer wearing a mask.
"Who fixed your face?" Mykel asked as he wiped how mouth with a napkin and stared at how Zachary's face looked better but at the same time not as well. "Let me fix it," he stared at the skin and the flesh on Zach's cheek that barely covered the whole and how it looked like splitting and tearing dough.
Zachary's face felt so itchy and he had to scratch it because it was unbearable. But when he touched his cheek, he realized how smooth his cheek was, and everyone was staring at him in shocked expressions.
"Good as new," Mykel chuckled.
Zachary, Melissa, Aston, and Javelin looked at Mykel and it was surreal that he was standing in front of them. They didn't know if they should feel happy to see him or be on the edge knowing Mykel's power and what he could do.
"It's nice to see you again, Mykel. Did you... defeated the eldest sister?" Zachary looked at Mykel anxiously.
"Sit down and eat first," Mykel responded as he walked back to his chair. "We have a lot of time to talk, but right now let's just enjoy the food," he continued and sat down as he put the napkin on his lap and started eating again.
Mykel was the center of attention as he made the dining hall so lively by asking about everyone's life. Zachary and Melissa got engaged not long after Melissa stepped down from her presidency since it had been five years. Aston and Javelin started dating and made lots of charities for people around the world while at the same time living the dream.
"Mykel!" A woman's voice could be heard from the door. "Mykel!" Her voice trembled in excitement and disbelief.
At first, Mykel didn't recognize who that woman was with long straight brown hair down to her lower back. She looked so dignified in her dress, the same kid that Mykel brought back from a dark alley, Jessie.
Jessie hugged Mykel so tightly and how she had all grown up, but she still acted like how she used to be. She was sobbing in front of the others and didn't care what they thought about her actions because she missed him so much.
"Jessie, I know you missed him, but have you forgotten your manners? Didn't you say you would show him all the things you have taught when he came back?" Elestria raised her eyebrows with a smile on her face.
"Can you do it?" Aston asked after he took a shot.
"It's not impossible," Mykel poured a whiskey into Aston's glass. "But I don't want them to know about this. So keep it to yourself about this whole conversation," he looked at both of them.
Zachary and Aston nodded their heads with understanding and kept their mouths sealed.
"So how long are you going to stay here? Are you going to leave tomorrow without them knowing?" Zachary asked. Discover hidden stories at My Virtual Library Empire
"I asked for a week, so I'll use the time I have left to be with them. It might not be enough, but I'll see what I can do knowing the complicated situation in here about Her Highness and Jessie," Mykel answered as he grabbed a bottle of vodka. "If I can resolve the problem before I leave, that would be great," he continued.
"Are you not planning to come back after it's over?" Aston looked at Mykel with his eyebrows furrowed and swirled the glass in his hand.
Mykel raised his eyebrows and drank a whole bottle like he was drinking water. He then grabbed another bottle and put it on the table to share it with them. He poured the glasses like there was no tomorrow, making those two gulp nervously.
"My existence in this world would unbalance the goal I want to achieve in this world. It's better if I just disappear and none of you will remember that I existed," Mykel explained.
At that moment Zachary and Aston realized that it was possible for Mykel to make them forget about him. That wouldn't affect them, but the fact they would forget about him and everything that he did for this world, was unfair to him. They wished him to not do that, but at the same time, they couldn't find a way to convince him since he had lost everything and he had nothing to lose anymore.
"If you have all those unbelievable powers, can't you just bring your family back to life?" Aston asked since he heard about Mykel's past and his family.
"Who said that my family is dead?" Mykel asked back as he looked at the counter, backing those two away. "If they died, I could easily bring them back to life, but it's more complicated than that. They're out of my grasp," he explained.
"So is this the reason why you're doing all this? For a revenge?" Zachary asked.
"With the power I have," Mykel paused to grab a fancy bottle of Gin. "Do you think those beings can take my family away?" He asked back.
"So it's not revenge, then that means it wasn't them who took your family," Aston looked at Mykel with curiosity.
"Something like that," Mykel nodded his head. "You won't understand, so let's just enjoy the drink. We will empty this whole bar," he pointed out.
