Destroying My Own World

"You have made a huge mistake by coming down here..." A demon with broken wings said and stared at Aurea in between her fingers that were on his face. "You have no idea what will happen if you kill us all here..." he continued as he groaned in pain.

"Who cares," Aurea crushed the demon's head and took the soul for herself. "Have you found her?" Aurea asked Zherlthsh who had just come out of the cave.

Zherlthsh moved aside and saw Deviatris in a piece of black cloth that covered her body. She looked as bad as the others, but as soon as Amaryllis gave back her power, she recovered instantly. She immediately covered her body in a dress made of slime and summoned her homunculi to devour everything inside the cave.

"Eight out of twelve, only Beldathiel, Anathiel, Nefarath, and Luciel left," Kiersha said as she stroked the mare of her serpent. "Amaryllis, did you find where they are? Or is it another bust?" Kiersha asked and looked at Amaryllis.

"No, I can't find them," Amaryllis shook her head and she looked disappointed. "I don't think they're in the Limbo world, and we can try to go to the second circle," Amaryllis suggested.

"If that's the case we have to kill all the Dukes of Hell on the first circle so we can go to the next circle," Elena said as she lifted herself up after leaning against the wall. "Is all the Limbo world connected with each other?" Elena asked as she approached Amaryllis.

"You can say that the Limbo world is like a massive ant nest. It has so many entrances and layers, but in the end, it's all connected as long as you know where you're going," Amaryllis answered. "Right now we are on a dead end, and we can't go to another place in Limbo world from here," Amaryllis continued.

"Well, we haven't checked the portal in China. We still have Nefarath to rescue," Jeanne said as she looked at the others. "Perhaps we might get a lead there," Jeanne added.

They all nodded in agreement and then went back to the portal where they came from. When they left the portal and came back to Australia, they saw Anzel standing near the post with Anastasia. They both were waiting for them and kept an eye since they were curious why Elena and her team had decided to clear the portal.

Elena didn't care about those two and walked away as long as those two didn't cause trouble. When they were about to get into the cars, Aurea stopped and slowly looked at Anzel.

"Aren't you worried about Anderson? If you're not going to see him, should I kill him?" Aurea asked with a smile on her face.

"What did you just say?" Anzel asked as he walked toward Aurea with his hand ready on the handle of his sword.

"Don't do it, Anzel..." Anastasia said quietly as she held Anzel back from approaching Aurea. "She wants you to make a scene. Don't listen to her," Anastasia continued.

Aurea chuckled and then entered the car. They both watched them leave like they owned the place without even getting any punishment or consequence for their actions. That was the reason why Anzel was so mad because they knew Mykel and the others were in the wrong, but it looked like they were still the ones who owned everything.

"When are we going to realize that we are acting like Mykel's bitches? We can't do anything as he does as he pleases. We need the world to understand, I want them to open their eyes and do something about this," Anzel said as he gritted his teeth and watched the SUVs leave.

"I know. We all know that, Anzel. That's why we are getting ourselves stronger, and they're all doing the same thing. We want to make sure that we are prepared before we take the risk to fight them back," Anastasia explained. "Just be patient, and let's just hunt some demons together," Anastasia tried to comfort Anzel.

Anzel nodded with understanding and then they both entered the portal to hunt some demons to increase their levels and skills. When they went inside, they both were petrified when they saw the condition of the forest. Everything was flattened, not a single tree was standing tall, and they could see craters and hills that weren't supposed to exist in that area.

"What the fuck is happening here?! Did they destroy this place on purpose?! Is that why they came all the way here?!" Anzel asked in anger.

"Who knows, but we can still see the demons around. So I'm not really sure what their purpose was in destroying this place," Anastasia answered as she looked around. "I don't think it's a bad idea. It saves us some time to find the demons and we don't have to worry about the spores," Anastasia pointed out.

A few hours passed, and Elena with her team arrived at the airport in Beijing. Their arrival alerted the whole country and someone was sent to get information on why they were in China.

"You're not welcome here," A man with messy black hair in a black tank top said as he was on guard and stared at each one of them. "I ask you to leave, or we will have to use force to make you leave," he warned with a serious expression.

"You want to force us to leave? With what?" Elena asked as he looked at the soldiers lurking in the airport. "I'm giving you two options. Let us be or we will destroy your country," Elena said as she walked toward the man with her hands inside her jacket's pockets.

"You won't do that. It will only make things worse for you and the Rebirth Guild," The man said and he didn't buy Elena's threat.

"Really?" Aurea asked as she walked toward the man with a smirk and eyebrows raised. "You have been warned..." Aurea paused as she looked up. "Die..." Aurea said so quietly.

The man could hear what Aurea said as if she was whispering into his ears. He felt a chill down his spine and slowly he lost his strength and his head went blank.

All the glasses inside and outside the airport shattered into dust and everyone in the radius exploded into pieces. All the vehicles and the buildings around the airport exploded and collapsed. It all happened in a matter of a second, and the man felt like his soul was leaving his body.

"I spare your life so you can tell them what happens here. Tell them if they want to die, you guys are free to meet us at the portal," Aurea said as she chuckled.

Aurea's skill [Scream of Chaos] had been nurtured and combined with the [Soul Siphon] skill. It became a new skill called [Whisper of Death] that could have ten times the destructive power of the [Scream of Chaos] skill and those who died with the skill, their souls were automatically taken by Aurea.

She could control how far and wide the skill would be, and she could control who could die or live. It was a powerful skill that those who heard her whispers were either dying or experiencing fear. Those who didn't hear her whisper wouldn't be affected by the power and wouldn't know what happened.

The man wet his pants as he trembled in fear with his pupils shaking uncontrollably. He couldn't move a muscle because he felt so weak, and they could hear Elena and the others walk past him.

"Mykel should be here in a few hours. We can wait here and get something to eat," Elena said as she looked at her wristwatch.

As they waited, dozens of Guilds from China had gathered around the airport, and they were planning to force Elena and the others to leave. They were serious about it that they were planning to bomb the whole airport just so Elena and the others would leave.

"They're starting to get annoying. Can you block their way in?" Elena asked Kiersha.

Kiersha whispered something to her serpent, and the serpent started to slither away. It only took a minute until the whole airport was covered in ice by the serpent. The ice was so strong that nobody could break it, and they even bombarded the airport, but not even a scratch could be seen on the ice.

"Look at the mess down there. Who did that?" Rozan asked as he looked outside from the plane.

"Who knows, but it looks like we're not welcome here. We can't even land the plane with how bad the landing site is," Gunnar answered as he looked at the airport.

"We are jumping down," Mykel said as he came out of the pilot's cabin. "They're threatening us by shooting down the plane if we try to land," Mykel continued.

"I guess we have no choice," Sven said as he stood up and the others as well.

Mykel and the others jumped down from the plane that was above the clouds. The moment Mykel landed on top of the airport, the ice shattered and destroyed all the armored vehicles that were stationed outside the airport.

"He's here," Kiersha said as she looked up. "Always with unusual entrances," Kiersha chuckled.
