Destroying My Own Novel

119 Chapter 118: Supreme Commander.



“The gate should be behind this, we can for a few hours so the cliff will move. The floor shifted when the sun rose so we should be able to see it soon enough,” Manna said as she patted the cliff.

“Wait? I have no time to wait,” Mykel replied and stood next to Manna. “You might want to get far back let me break this wall,” he said and looked at Manna.

Manna didn’t say a word and immediately walked far back with the other knights.

Mykel punched the wall and it slowly cracked then it crumbled like bricks. Manna was blinking her eyes with disbelief and the knights were staring at him with their eyes and mouth wide open and then a demon’s corpse fell down in front of them.

Mykel burned it into ashes immediately to be safe and used the strong wind to prevent the bacteria to enter his body and the others. He was quite lucky to find one because there were only a few of them on each floor but it was deadly enough to cover a mile radius from one body.

“How did you do all that in less than a second?” Manna asked with disbelief.

“If I’m not capable of doing this, I won’t be here on my own, right?” Mykel replied. “Let’s just deal with the demons behind the gate, I need to save your world as soon as possible,” he walked through the debris and made a path for them to walk.

“Before we go, we haven’t introduced ourselves. My name is Manna Immane, and you already know about that already that I used to be the Supreme Commander of Veatika,” Manna said and offered her hand for a handshake.

“Mykel Alester, I also have my own team but I ordered them to clear another tower,” Mykel answered and shook Manna’s hand.

Manna looked at Mykel and was impressed by the fact he had a team and sent them to another tower to clear it.

“A team of what? Hundreds of people?” Manna asked as she walked next to Mykel..

“No, just nine,” Mykel answered and saw a giant steel gate in front of him.

“Nine? wow,” Manna replied and she was impressed by it. “Those people must be as strong as you are,” she said.

“No, they’re weaker than you but I trained them to be the best,” Mykel replied and tried to push the gate lightly.

“No, let us deal with the demons. We are not as strong as you are but we are at least able to deal with our own enemies,” Manna said as she grabbed Mykel’s forearm.

Mykel flipped his hands as he pointed them at the gate. “It’s yours,” he said.

Manna looked at the others and nodded her head, she let the knights open the door while she unsheathed her broadsword. A wide broadsword glowed a light bluish color on the blade, it was made with [Blessed Tungsten].

The material was the reward for clearing the thirtieth floor, that alone was enough that Manna cleared the thirtieth floor and came out alive. She was the strongest Awakener in Veatika and that alone was enough to say that she could clear her own world without Mykel’s help.

The moment the gate was opened, hundreds of demons charged toward them. Manna ran through the gate with a dozen knights following her from behind.

Manna swung her sword enough to cut those demons who got sliced by the sword into half. Her armor was also made by [Blessed Tungsten] and no demons could scratch it nor bite it off from her body. The claws and teeth of the demons were the ones that got broken from trying to attack her armor.

The knights were no joke because all of them were Awakeners as well, they as strong as Sven and Vincze in comparison.

[You have cleared the eleventh floor of the Belphegor Tower!]

[You are the first to clear the eleventh floor]

[Please enter your name]

[The red portal to the twelfth floor is now open!]

[The blue portal to your original world is now open!]

Manna wasn’t even out of breath after dealing with and killing hundreds of demons. She turned around and looked at Mykel then she nodded her head.

“It’s finally time to go and see our comrades, I hope they’re doing fine,” Manna said and gripped her sword so tightly. “Shall we go, Mykel?” she asked.

Mykel nodded and entered the portal with Manna and the knights.

The whole area was covered in dried mud and the dead trees were filling the area around them. It was the same as the previous floor because everything was covered by the cliff walls.

“Alright,” Manna sighed and looked at the walls. “We aren’t sure where we are but we should be quite close to Eklerban Town by the look of the terrains,”

“Leave the maze to me, I will bring everything down,” Mykel said as he walked to the front.

Mykel walked toward the cliff in front of him and did a spin kick on it. It didn’t crumble but it was getting pushed and fell down to the other cliffs like dominos. They were watching the cliffs falling down and destroying themselves in the process.

“I don’t know how can a person can be this strong, but we are glad that someone like you came into our world,” Manna said as she listened to the crumbling sound in the distance that’s similar to the sound of thunder rumbling.

Mykel didn’t respond to her words and kept on watching the cliffs crumble. He saw a tower in the distance in the north so he walked up the debris to look at it.

“That’s the town, right? Eklerban,” Mykel said and pointed his finger at the tower.

Manna stood next to Mykel and squinted her eyes. “Yes, that’s the famous watchtower and the tallest watchtower in the empire,” Manna answered and nodded her head in agreement.

“Let’s get going, your other comrades are waiting,” Mykel said as he jumped down from the debris.

They walked for an hour and finally arrived at Eklerban Town where so many people were watching from the top of the wall. Manna walked toward the gate and she smiled because she saw familiar faces from the wall.

“Elric! Helden! Carson!” Manna shouted as she wreathed in a smile and her hands waved.

“Supreme Commander Manna?!” A red-haired guy with a scar on the right side of his lips said.

The three of them opened the gate and immediately ran toward Manna then went on their knees.

“May the dead look down on us,” The three of them said at the same time.

Manna stabbed her sword on the ground and rested her hands on the handle. “The living will die and the dead stay dead. The dead are calling and so you come to serve,” she replied and looked down on them.

The three of them stood up with big smiles on their faces.

“Is it time, Commander?” A blue-haired guy with an eye patch asked.

“It’s time, an Ordained came to our world and he came to save our world,” Manna answered and pointed her left hand at Mykel.

The three of them looked at Mykel and they were a bit confused because it was only one guy. They looked at each other but then they looked at the debris of the cliffs, they were convinced because nobody could make such a mess in their world.

“Bring all the knights, our deaths await us all,” Manna said as she pulled the sword from the ground. They all nodded and went inside the town to prepare and bring all the knights.

In less than ten minutes all of them were already gathered in front of the gate while Manna stared at each one of them with a smile on her face. Mykel stared at those three and they were as strong as Jeanne, Agnez, and Gunnar.

“Mykel, let me introduce you to the captains of the Vaetika Empire,” Manna looked at Mykel as she pointed her hand at those three.

“His name is Elric Criog, Captain of Sword,” Manna pointed to the red-haired guy with the scar on his lips.

“His name is Carson, Captain of Spear,” Manna pointed to the blue-haired guy with an eye patch.

“Her name is Helden Alkris, Captain of Bow,” Manna pointed at the grey-haired woman with a beauty mark on her upper left lip.

The three of them nodded their heads to Mykel.

“His name is Mykel Alester of the Earth, I have foreseen the future, and he’s the one who will bring the demons down with us!” Manna pointed her finger at Mykel.

Everyone was surprised and happy at the same time.

“Since we are done with the introduction, can we go and find the gate?” Mykel asked and looked at Manna with a straight face.

“Let us march and save our world!” Manna said and raised her sword.

Everyone cheered their lungs out and started to march with the three of them leading Mykel to the gate.
