Chapter 88 New faces.
"Boss, why are we using the plane? Can you just use your warp ability to teleport us all there in an instant?" Gunnar asked as he peeked his head to look at Mykel who was in the front row.
"And showed the world that Mykel has unbelievable ability? We are doing this so we look normal, or at least not to look suspicious," Rozan answered as he smacked Gunnar's head from behind with his staff. "But we totally forgot that something like this might happen after we neglected to clear the portal," Rozan said as he looked out the window.
"We were having too much fun that we basically forgot about everything," Aurea said as she kept staring at the katana that she made herself. "Also, I still can't believe the system can become like that," Aurea looked at Amaryllis who was sitting next to Elena.
"Yeah, but she's so cute and innocent that she copied everything we did," Jeanne said as she chuckled and remembered how cute and innocent Amaryllis was.
Sven, Vincze, Rozan, Gerrard, Euros, and all the boys had been staring at Amaryllis because of her beauty. Especially in her white short dress that she wore and how she braided her hair like a Goddess from the Norse. It was Jeanne and Elena's doing that gave her a makeover on the way she looked, and she didn't complain about it like a little girl.
The boys couldn't get close to Amaryllis because she had been sticking to Elena, and they barely had any chance to talk to her. Elena, Jeanne, and Lillith were protecting her from them, and it would be impossible to make a move on her.
As they were going to Nebraska, the whole sky turned dark, and the co-pilot couldn't see anything in front of him. He wasn't scared of the storm, he was more scared about the thing that might come out of the thick clouds in front of them.
"You don't have to worry. This whole plane has been covered with strong magical barriers that Mister Rozan put for us. There's nothing that can breach the barriers," The pilot said.
The co-pilot was skeptical about it, and suddenly the plane had turbulence that startled him. He saw shadows flying past them like birds, but they were too big to be called a bird. He heard screeches from outside the window, and it terrified him because he had never encountered a demon before.
A giant flying demon with claws and big red eyes came out of the dark clouds and it made both the pilot and the co-pilot scream. Before the demon could touch the nose of the plane, its body turned into ashes as soon as it touched the barrier.
"S-see... what did I tell you?" The pilot said with sweat running down his forehead. "Let's just keep this to ourselves," he continued.
They landed in Nebraska and saw demons flying around like birds in migration. All the soldiers were protecting the airport with their high-caliber guns which were enough to kill the demons.
It wasn't just the United States, but the whole world experienced the same thing except it was worse for the countries that had portals. The one that Mykel and the others had to deal with was a demon that was a hundred meters tall with a giant sword. The demon had flattened the city and killed thousands of lives in just a few hours.
Exima looked at the buildings around her and decided to jump onto one of them. She then leaped from one building to another as she went higher and higher until she could see the demon on the same level as her.
She looked at James and the others who were trying to bring the demon away from the city, but it wasn't easy to do. She looked at her surroundings and saw hundreds of Awakeners trying to hurt the demon, but they were too weak.
"I'll let you have a test of my power," Exima said as she pointed her giant sword at the demon.
Exima pulled her sword and it looked like the space in front of her was being sucked in. The moment she thrust her sword, the space in front of her was pushed away and created a shockwave.
James and the others heard and felt the shockwave, and suddenly the demon's head was blown away into pieces. They were surprised and shocked at the same time as they saw the demon slowly fall toward them.
They managed to save themselves, but many were injured because of the debris and the impact. James and the others wondered who had just killed the demon, but they couldn't find anyone around them.
"There. The shockwave was coming from on top of that building," Morris said as he pointed at the building in the distance.
"That doesn't make any sense! Who's that? Is that Mykel?" James asked as he squinted his eyes to see the person who stood on the edge.
"No, it's a woman. She's not Jeanne or anyone from Mykel's team. I don't know who she is, but she looks strong," Morris answered as he used his binoculars to look at the woman. "Who is she? We should go and find her before she disappears. Let's go," Morris said and started running to catch up with the woman.
Exima had confirmed that the demon had been killed, and then she walked away to go back to Mykel and the others. She was smiling the whole time and couldn't hide her excitement at the power she possessed. It was similar to what Luciel had, but she couldn't move from one space to another instantly, and it was a less powerful version of what Luciel had.
"Elena?" Victor asked when he saw Elena and the others after he tried to catch up with Exima.
James and the others were surprised and not at the same time knowing the woman was a part of Mykel's team. They then saw new faces on the team, and they were curious about who those people were and how Mykel found them. Read exclusive chapters at empire
"Hello, Victor. It's been a while," Elena said with a flirtatious smile.
