"The Guild League has announced the truth behind the portal. Sasah de Redshield said that Earth is under attack by demons that ca from hell. The photos of the Pit of Hell that have been released proved her words, and seeing that there are so many of them, we can only pray and support every awakener in the world to protect our ho, Earth," The newscaster said, and then the breaking news ended.
"That's not hell, that's just a demon playground," Lillith scoffed as she ate her chips. "Should we show them the first layer of hell and let them feel the heat?" Lillith asked and chuckled.
"Let them be. I want to see their expression when they realized they have been working with demons all along. I can't wait to see that happen," Aurea answered with a mischievous smile. "Anyway. I don't see Mykel anywhere, is he going out again?" Aurea asked Amaryllis.
"No. He's waiting for you guys to wake up," Amaryllis smiled as she looked at them. Stay connected via empire
Jeanne and the others furrowed their eyebrows.
"Waiting for us? Where?" Jeanne asked.
"You'll see," Amaryllis kept smiling. "Get your stuff and et here," Amaryllis added.
Everyone wore their armor and carried their weapons as they ca back to et with Amaryllis. They thought that it would be another spar with Mykel, and they had been waiting for that as well since they had learned more about their new skills.
When they were teleported, they thought they would be sent to the Void Realm again, but to their surprise that they were brought to Niflheim. It had been a while since they had co to the hall where all Constellations used to gather with Mykel on the throne.
The hall was empty, and they didn't see Mykel anywhere, but then Mykel ca from the other room and sat on the throne. Everyone was looking at him and waiting for him to say a word, but they realized that sothing was wrong with him. The way he looked at them was like a stranger looking at other strangers.
"That's not Mykel. Who's he?" Jeanne asked as she looked at Amaryllis and walked up to the throne to stand by Mykel's side.
"You're half right about it," Amaryllis answered as she looked at Jeanne. "He is Mykel, but not the real one," Amaryllis added.
"You're making a clone of him? How?" Aurea asked as she looked at Mykel and it felt weird to see sothing that looked exactly like Mykel.
"His blood," Rozan paused as he looked at Amaryllis. "She's using his blood and made a clone of him from it. I believe he's a homunculus," Rozan answered.
Amaryllis smiled and nodded her head in agreent, "You're as sharp as always, Rozan. But I'm not only creating one, I have created many that are enough to give you an opponent to fight," Amaryllis added.
More and more Mykel ca out of the other room and they all stood below the throne. They were all identical and wore the sa suit, but the more they looked at them, the more they realized those Mykels had a different aura.
"Each one of them had different power, but none of them are as strong as the current Mykel. Since I'm using his old blood, they're only as strong as Mykel before he gained a new power," Amaryllis explained as she looked at all the Mykels below. "With that being said, they're as strong as Mykel that enough to fight Mara. So, your opponents will be them, have fun," Amaryllis continued and snapped her fingers.
Everyone was sent to a different location with a different Mykel for them to fight. The hall once again beca empty, but then another Mykel ca in and sat on the throne. He rested his head on his fist and looked at Amaryllis who had been staring at him with a smile.
"What's the probability of them winning?" Mykel asked.
"Seventy percent. So have ninety percent, but the purpose of today's training isn't to see who can win because they're fighting sothing that can't die," Amaryllis answered. "Their probability of winning will decrease as the fight is prolonged, and the purpose is to see if their skills can be upgraded during the fight," Amaryllis continued.
"In the real world, there's one thing I have been wondering, about alchemy and homunculus. I heard it's nothing but a myth or sothing irrelevant in today's world," Amaryllis said as she sat on the armrest of the throne. "But a lot of things were myths before all of this chaos happened, so I'm curious what's your opinion about these two," Amaryllis added and looked at Mykel.
"Alchemy is a way to defy nature, playing God. It ca from the people who believed in old myths like King Midas from Greek. They believe they can manipulate nature to the point where it sounds foolish and impossible," Mykel answered. "It never succeeded both turning any object into gold or creating a homunculus," Mykel added.
"If you understand the story behind King Midas, aren't you curious how Dionysus, a God of wine and celebration could give such power to him?" Mykel asked.
"Perhaps it's the other Olympian God who gave it to King Midas? It's not impossible for them to grant that wish to the king," Amaryllis answered.
"That's not the case, Amaryllis. It wasn't Zeus or anyone from the Olympian Gods, but it was Zeus who removed his curse. We have asked Dionysus how he gave the King that kind of power, but Dionysus didn't say anything about it," Hera said as she ca into the hall. "Dionysus has so many secrets, just like Loki who love to ss around with mortals," Hera added.
"So if that's the case, who gave the King that power?" Amaryllis asked. "Angels don't give mortals powers for no reason, and if it's other gods from different mythology, I don't find it reasonable," Amaryllis said as she looked at both of them.
"The power to turn any object to gold and the knowledge of creating homunculus ca from soone. Soone that could give that power of his, and curse them with it. Soone that could do whatever he wanted since he was no longer an angel," Mykel answered as he looked back at Amaryllis.
"Mammon? You're saying that Dionysus has a connection with one of the seven Princes of Hell?" Amaryllis asked. "Is that even allowed? Isn't that against the Law of the World?" Amaryllis asked again and looked at Hera.
"Well. This is new to , and I'm not sure about that either," Hera answered as she looked at Mykel. "Since you have registered him into the system, you can see his mories, no?" Hera asked Amaryllis.
"No, I can't. I need to make physical contact to read him because he's not entirely in the system because of the new system, but I can check his feeds," Amaryllis answered and then closed her eyes. Suddenly she opened her eyes and looked at Mykel, "You're right. Dionysus has a connection with Mammon, and he also made contact with Lucifer."
"I know. I have been paying attention to his feeds the mont I found out the truth behind the myth about King Midas when Rozan wanted to try to create a Homunculus from my blood," Mykel answered and he didn't look surprised at all. "It's a lucky discovery and turns out he plays a big role in the Realm of God. Even Loki doesn't know about this," Mykel added.
Once again, Amaryllis was dumbfounded when she found out how Mykel's attention to detail was amazing. She wondered if Mykel was really just an ordinary human like those people on Earth.
"Are you really just a human?" Amaryllis asked.
"Why? Is that really a surprise for soone to pay attention to anything?" Mykel asked back.
"Yes. Yes, it is..." Amaryllis answered as she slowly nodded her head repeatedly as she looked at Mykel in disbelief.
"I'm just a man who has so much free ti," Mykel answered with a smile. "I already have Elena and the others who can do the dirty job for . It would be wise to use the ti to gather information," Mykel added.
"Why are you so surprised about it, Amaryllis? You have known Mykel for a long ti, no? You should get used to his insightful treat," Hera chuckled as she looked at Amaryllis.
