บท 22: Chapter 22: Not even one percent.
"He has been discharged already? With those wounds on his body? Why didn't you tell me? It's already noon," Richard asked and looked at Russel with a surprised look after he heard that Mykel was already back in New York early in the morning. "Prepare the helicopter, I want to see him in person and ask about what happened," Richard said as he closed the document in his hands.
They both flew to New York, but Richard had been talking on the phone the whole time. Russel also was busy talking on the phone, and the moment they were done with all the calls, they both leaned on the chair and just stared blankly at the city from above where the sun shined brightly.
"The word travels really fast there. To think everyone around the world already knows that we have killed the giant demon. They're immediately asking us to assist them? Are they really out of their mind? We are struggling here and they have the guts to request help?" Richard sighed as he massaged his nose bridge.
"Should we tell this to Mister Mykel?" Russel asked.
"I'll tell him myself after I know it's okay to tell him. I don't want to be a pushover, and losing him is worse than losing the four guilds right now," Richard answered.
(Inside the training ground)
Mykel was wiping off the sweat on his face and neck, he was shirtless and looked at everyone laid down on the ground with bruises on their bodies. Lyneth came and gave him a bottle of water, she chuckled and saw everything from the side.
"Now you know why I decided to let them know. You guys are not even strong enough to put me down, not even a scratch on my body," Mykel said after he took a sip of his drink.
"Boss, is your power back? There's no way for us who have higher level than you could be beaten to a pulp with just a single punch and kick," Gunnar asked as he tried to stand up, but his body didn't listen.
"Not even one percent of my power is back, but it was enough to beat all of you," Mykel answered as he sat down and put the towel on his head. "You need more level, maybe once you reached level two hundred you can be equal to me," Mykel continued.
"This system sucks ass," Rozan said as he slowly turned his body to stare at the ceiling.

[System is overriding....]
[Estimated time until the system is reestablished: 2200 Hours 12 Minutes 40 seconds]
Mykel looked at his fucked up status screen that mixed with both his system and the new system. It looked so weird and wondered if the power he possessed was pure from the old system or a mix of both. All he knew was that he was far stronger than anyone on Earth, and that was good enough for a starter. He knew he would grow stronger and stronger as time passed by, so he could only wait patiently.
"Get up. You guys need to increase your skill level and get a new one," Mykel said as he closed the panel.
Everyone got up and forced themselves because they wanted to get stronger. It gave them motivation because soon their powers would come back to them as well. They had to survive with the current system that they had, and they didn't want to be a burden on Mykel's goal.
Elena dashed forward and threw punches and kicks at Mykel, but he blocked them so easily. She didn't hold back on her strength and pushed her to her limit because she wanted to make Mykel proud.
"More, Elena!" Mykel shouted.
Elena screamed her lungs out as her fist was filled with anger and excitement. She punched Mykel in the chest and it was enough to knock Mykel back quite far. She didn't stop and kept throwing punches and kicks at him as her vision only focused on Mykel's face.
Mykel suddenly grabbed her neck and she was startled that she didn't see it coming. She got lifted up and then slammed down to the ground so hard that the ground broke. She coughed blood, but she didn't react to the pain and focused on trying to remove Mykel's hand from her neck.
"Keep your head cool, Elena. Never show your anger and give them the satisfaction that you're weaker than them. Use your head to make the situation to your advantage," Mykel said as he felt his hand being scratched with her nails to free herself.
Elena calmed down, and then she wrapped her legs around Mykel's neck. She screamed as she pushed Mykel down and tried to lock him to the ground.
"It's our chance! Get him!" Elena shouted.
Everyone started to run and tried to lock him on the ground by holding all his limbs down. Aurea was sitting on top of his chest and she looked excited about it. She then clenched her right fist and punched Mykel in the face without hesitation.
*Creak!*
Aurea's wrist got dislocated after that punch, and she groaned in pain because it felt like she was punching a steel wall. She immediately fixed her wrist and it made another cracking sound.
"Nice try, but this isn't enough," Mykel clenched his fists and sent everyone away from him. "You think everyone would be there to help every time, Elena? Use another way where you alone would be enough to deal with the situation," Mykel said as he looked at Elena.
"Then teach me how!" Elena shouted as she ran toward Mykel.
Everyone fought Mykel with blood and sweat, but the outcome was still the same. They couldn't beat him, but this time they managed to scratch his body and left a few bruises.
"Mykel, we have a guest," Lyneth said as she pointed at the door.
Mykel looked at the door and saw Richard and Russel standing still with their eyes and mouths wide open. They had been watching and couldn't believe what they saw because of how powerful and invincible Mykel was.
"That's enough training for today, you guys can take a break," Mykel said as he grabbed the towel in Lyneth's hand.
Everyone sighed and stretched their bodies with relief because they had been training since early in the morning nonstop. They all sat down on the sides as they let their bodies heal and listened to what Richard had to say since he came unnoticed.
"Good afternoon, Mister Mykel. It appears that we bother your training," Richard said as he looked at Jeanne and the others. They were shaking their heads slowly and he could tell that they were grateful for his sudden visit. "I guess not," Richard raised his eyebrows as he slowly looked at Mykel.
"If you came here to show gratitude, that's unnecessary because we are not in that kind of awkward friendship. But I know you know that, so then you came here for something else," Mykel said.
"Have they contacted you? The situation over there is quite dire," Richard said.
"No, they haven't. I'm quite surprised they haven't contacted me yet even though the situation all over the world is in chaos," Mykel answered as he put on his shirt. "That's that, but I heard the five people that entered the door in Egypt have come back. Any information about them?" Mykel asked.
"The information we got is that they're going to fight the strong demon. Another thing is that they have become a totally different people after they came out," Richard answered as he crossed his arms.
"They have spoken with Gods, what did you expect? I think they have become the servants of Gods," Mykel said.
"Do you think they're powerful enough to stop the strong demon? I mean, I don't know exactly how powerful they are compared to you, but I assume they should be special, right?" Richard asked with his eyebrows raised.
"Who knows, but I'm as curious as you are, Richard. I want to see them in action as well and see what they're capable of," Mykel said
บท 23: Chapter 23: One of the many.
"Shanka, you take the lead," A man covered half of his face with white cloth said as he held two daggers with handles made of gold. The man had light brown hair and bright blue eyes, and he was staring at something in the distance.
A man standing at the front silently watched a giant demon with each of its limbs wrapped in chains. He also covered half of his face with a white cloth, and he had black hair and green eyes. He was holding a staff made of gold with carvings all over it.
The demon was destroying the city with its chains and cutting the buildings in half. The demon had destroyed dozens of cities and killed thousands of lives ever since it came out of the portal. There was nobody that could stop it, and it was on a killing spree as the other demons followed it from behind.
"Are you guys fine if I become the leader?" Shanka asked.
"We believe you're the strongest, so there's no reason for us to not choose you," The man answered.
There were three other people standing behind Shanka and the man, they were the people who were chosen by Ra. They traveled all the way to Saudi Arabia to deal with the giant demon.
"Then let's move, Khai, Rash, Zahra, Akila," Shanka said as he glanced at them.
All of them nodded their heads and followed Shanka from behind.
"Khai and Zahra, you go to the left," Shanka looked at the first man and the woman with long curly brown hair that also covered half of her face with a white cloth. She didn't hold any weapons, but her arms were covered with tattoos of a tiger and a falcon that weren't there before she entered the door.
Khai and Zahra nodded with understanding and started to walk to the left.
"Rash, Akila, you take care of the right side," Shanka said.
A man with long dark blonde hair and also covering his half face with a white cloth nodded. He held a scimitar with carvings on the blade and the handle was made of gold. He looked so relaxed and didn't have any fear in his eyes even though he was getting closer to the demon.
The last one was a woman with long and straight black hair that her bang covered her forehead. Half of her face was also covered by a white cloth, she was holding a katar in each hand, and the color of the blades was shiny black with gold handles.
"We will try to bring it down to its knees," Rash said as he swung his scimitar.
Shanka walked in the middle of the road as he heard the screams of the people. He could hear everyone screaming for help, forgiveness, and even prayer, but he was unbothered by them. He then stabbed his staff and the ground started to shake that enough to attract the giant demon and the other demons' attention.
"Come here. Your opponent is me," Shanka said to himself.
The giant demon looked at Shanka in the distance, and then it growled at him with its eyes wide open. The demons started to run past the giant demon toward Shanka who was in the open.
He watched as the demons crawled, jumped, and flew toward him and they were all getting closer. The moment they were only ten meters away from him, he raised his staff and let it get exposed to the sun. Suddenly spikes came out from the ground tall enough to pierce the demons that were flying toward him.
He slammed his staff to the ground and all the spikes went back into the ground in an instant. He then pointed his staff forward, and the sand around him started to form and flew toward the demons like a sandstorm.
All the demons got pushed away as the sand ripped and tore the demons' bodies into pieces as if they were inside a giant blender. Shanka watched as the demons were massacred and not a single blood could escape the sandstorm.
The moment Shanka lowered his staff, the sandstorm disappeared and the pieces of demons fell to the ground like rain. That made the giant demon furious and started to run toward him at full speed.
"Unfortunately, your opponent isn't me, you fool," Shanka said with a smirk.
When the giant demon was about to swing his hand and whip his chain at Shanka, it noticed something was lurking in between the buildings. When it turned its head, a giant tiger had already pounced at its arm and took a bit of its arm. The tiger was half the size of the giant demon which was at least fifteen meters tall.
The demon was brought down to the ground, and when the tiger was busy ripping its arm off, something was blocking the sun and it was a giant falcon that was as big as the tiger. The falcon scratched the demon's face and took one of its eyes with the falcon's claws.
Zahra was on top of the building and stood on the edge as she looked down at the demon being torn apart by the tiger and falcon. The tattoos on her arms disappeared and it appeared that the tiger and the falcon came from her arms. She then realized that the wounds were regenerating rapidly and that the tiger and the falcon weren't enough to deal with the demon.
"I did my part, it's your turn now, Khai," Zahra said.
Khai jumped off the building and pointed his daggers at the giant demon. The tiger and the falcon turned into dust, the dust flew and went into Khai's daggers. The daggers started to glow orange and the size of the blades grew a bit bigger.
Khai stabbed his daggers right into the demon's chest, and the giant demon growled in pain because it felt like the inside of its body was being ripped apart. He started to pull the daggers downward and created two big open wounds on the demon's chest.
"It's your turn, Rash!" Khai shouted as he pulled out his daggers and jumped off the demon's body because the demon started to stand up and got used to the pain.
His daggers started to dim and the dust came out of the blades. The dust flew toward Zahra and it covered her arms until the tattoos were marked on her arms again.
Rash ran from the other side of the road with his scimitar ready, and his scimitar was covered with floating sand around it. He then swung his scimitar even though he was still far away from the demon, but then the sand started to fly toward the demon in a crescent shape.
The sand cut the skin of the demon open and Rash didn't stop sending the sand to the demon. When the wound was about to close he stabbed his scimitar right into the demon's flesh.
"Enjoy the filling," Rash said.
The demon started to move weirdly and it looked like the body was stiffening. The moment Rash pulled his scimitar, the sand started coming out and that was the reason why the demon moved weirdly. The demon's whole body was filled with sand and it couldn't move its body freely.
"It's all yours, Akila," Rash said.
Akila appeared from behind Rash's back and jumped onto the demon's right arm. She climbed up with her katars so quickly that it only took her a few seconds until she stood on the demon's shoulder. She then tightened her grip on the katars and ran toward the demon's neck.
She sliced the demon's nack rapidly that the naked eyes couldn't see every movement she made. She was so fast that the demon's head was already detached from its body. She then jumped down at the same time as the demon's body hit the ground.
"We are done here, let's go back," Shanka said as he looked at the lifeless body of the demon.
All of them nodded and suddenly a sandstorm circled around them. They all disappeared and the people who filmed their actions couldn't see where they went.
(Inside the meeting room in the Rebirth Guild)
Mykel and the others watched everything from the beginning and were amused by how easy it was for them to kill the demon.
"They made so many unnecessary moves. That guy with the staff could easily kill that demon on his own," Sven said as he looked at the TV.
"They knew, but their purpose wasn't just to defeat the demon, they're showing off their powers to the public," Jeanne replied with her arms crossed.
"That's one. There are at least dozens of doors out there and they will produce people like them. They're going to be heroes that will save Earth from demons," Mykel said. "This is going to be exciting," Mykel smirked.
