Destroying My Own World

"Circles of Hell, that's something I'm familiar with," Mykel said as he walked with Elena and Amaryllis in the middle of a vast frozen sea. "I never thought it was real until you mentioned it," Mykel continued.

"What's this Circles of Hell?" Elena asked as she looked at Mykel and Amaryllis.

"It's basically layers of hell. From the upper first to lower seventh layers. It's basically a place where humans will be punished for their sins," Mykel answered and looked at Gunnar and Enma flirting with each other. "There are nine layers, but I believe that's not where Lucifer lives. He should be in the center of hell where he rules and watches the nine circles," Mykel explained.

Mykel explained to Elena the type of each layer of hell in detail so she would understand completely. Listening to his explanation, Elena found out that not all people went into the same hell, some were abandoned and some were punished severely. The seven deadly sins weren't even the worst sins, two others were worst than those seven which were fraud and treachery.

"Treachery? Treachery to whom?" Elena asked.

"To the Lord. That's where I will be if I died," Mykel answered without showing any concern. "A special place for people who betray the Lord, insult his existence just like Lucifer," Mykel continued as he looked at the snow on his glove.

"You don't have to worry about that. I'll make sure it won't happen to you or everyone that follows you," Amaryllis said with confidence and a smile on her face. "I have found the portal in this world, should I inform everyone to get ready?" Amaryllis asked with her head tilted.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Mykel nodded as he wiped off the snow on his glove.

(Outside the portal, Norway)

"It's over... the demon has reached the land..." A man said as he looked at the three-eyed demon that touched his right foot on the ground.

"Humans are so arrogant, not knowing how pitiful your existence is," The three-eyed demon said and his voice was enough to send everything down to their knees. "Humans are a pest, a mistake that the Lord has created. You're nothing but a greedy creature, worse than demons. Now I have been sent to erase your existence," he continued as he looked down at them.

The three-eyed demon shot a beam from his third eye, but then a life energy beam prevented his beam from destroying the land. A lightning bolt struck the demon's third eye and made him stop, but that only made him angrier and annoyed.

"You two need to be eliminated first," The three-eyed demon said as he covered his third eye because it stung after he got struck by lightning.

The demon roared as he stomped the ground to show off his power and inflict fear on humans. The ground was split in half and it slowly lifted and clapped to each other like two waves hitting each other. It was so quick that they couldn't escape from it and died getting crushed by the ground. Hundreds of Awakeners died just like that, and it showed how pointless for them to fight him.

When they started to lose hope, they heard helicopters flying toward them. Magnus and Lazarus turned around and saw dozens of helicopters in the sky and moving quickly. Not only that, dark clouds were following them from behind and they saw someone flying in front of the helicopters.

"You're bigger than I thought," Dimitri said as he looked at the demon as he floated in the air. "Let's see how fast you can react," Dimitri disappeared and suddenly a lightning bolt struck the demon.

The lightning bolt that struck the demon was Dimitri, he put himself inside the lightning current. He kept striking the demon over and over as the demon started to feel annoyed by it. It was impossible for the demon to stop him because he was basically invincible once he used his power.

"You're quite tough," Dimitri said as he floated right above the demon's head. "Unfortunately for you, I'm quite relentless," Dimitri continued and released lightning bolts from his fingertips and struck the demon in the head.

Lazarus looked at how powerful Dimitri was compared to him because he needed a medium to control lightning. He was jealous that Dimitri could use his power like breathing air, and how invincible he was that he looked like toying with the demon. He realized that he couldn't be compared to Dimitri in terms of power, and that pissed him off.

As they were watching the greatness of Dimitri, a man in a long black coat landed right in the middle of the mess. They looked at the man with messy hair standing in the middle of dead bodies that got crushed by the ground. He suddenly put his left hand on the ground as he looked at the demon in the distance.

"Han Suk-jin..." Eun Soo was surprised when she realized the man.

"Do you know who he is?" Magnus asked.

"He's not allowed to be out here. His power was considered extremely dangerous by the government of South Korea, and he was taken and imprisoned for it," Eun Soo answered as she nodded her head.

"Dangerous? What do you mean?" Lazarus asked with a curious look.

"His power is to bring back the dead and turn them into an army of immortals. His army of immortals," Eun Soo answered. "No matter if it's an Awakener, an old man, or a baby, once they got devoured by that thing, it will turn into an immortal warrior," Eun Soo explained.

As soon as Eun Soo said that, the dead bodies that were scattered around him slowly were being swallowed by black gooey slimes. The slimes grew bigger and bigger until they reformed themselves into human bodies with swords in their hands and bows on their backs.

Han Suk-Jin slowly stood up and the same substance came out of his fingertips and dripped to the ground. More and more immortal warriors were appearing from the ground and in just a minute, he had created a thousand warriors.

"Hunt it down," Han Suk-Jin said as a sword was formed from the substance in his hand.

All the warriors charged at the demon without hesitation, and they all ran so quickly like a cheetah. They swarmed the demon's feet and started to climb up like ants as they stabbed their swords into the demon's feet.

The demon stomped his foot and sent all the warriors to the ground. They were crushed, but they all came back to life like nothing happened to them in the first place. Knowing it was a bit too much for the warriors, Han Suk-Jin ordered his army back.

"Merge..." Han Suk-Jin ordered.

A thousand warriors stacked up to each other and slowly became one as they were reforming their shapes. A thousand warriors turned into one giant warrior that was fifty meters tall, and he started to attack the demon again. It shocked them that the giant warrior moved as swiftly as the smaller ones.

The warrior cut the demon's foot and it was enough to make the demon grunt in pain. The warrior kept slashing his sword and made big wounds on the demon's leg.

"We have no time to watch. Let's help them," Lazarus said.

Magnus nodded in agreement and started to shoot the energy beam at the demon's third eye.

The battle was fierce, the mages tried their best to help with the artilleries in the backline. Anzel and the others couldn't do anything to help, they could only watch in the distance like spectators.

The giant warrior kept getting bigger and bigger because Han Suk-Jin collected more souls from the dead. He didn't care if they were children or old people, he fed the warriors with their souls.

After hours of fighting, it was the first time they saw the demon get pushed back from the battle, and a glimmer of hope could be seen. They were excited that they could do something like that, and not to mention the reinforcement was still coming from all around the world.

The demon suddenly stopped resisting and fighting, and it made them a bit nervous. They all decided to stop and wait to see what was going to happen, but then the demon started to chuckle.

"The land will tremble in fear and succumb to my feet," The three-eyed demon said as the ground around him started to crack widely and shook fiercely.

Hundreds of people fell into the crack and were eaten alive by the ground. Even the giant warrior got stuck in the crack and then got crushed and swallowed by the ground.

"The mountains will scream in pain as I scream!" He screamed his lungs out and it was enough to activate the inactive volcanoes in Norway.

The volcanoes started to erupt around them, and the demon's scream sent everyone down to the ground. Dimitri was taken aback by it and passed out because he was right in front of the demon when it happened.

"The sea will heed my call and splash me with its body!" The demon spread his arms as a massive tsunami formed right behind him. "The only thing that awaits you is death!" He continued.

"Death?" Sasha asked as she climbed up on the demon's shoulder from behind. "I would love to take that offer, but I'm not going to make it easy for you," Sasha said with her daggers ready in her hands.
