"The demons are tougher than I thought," Elric said as he crouched and stared at the bodies of the demons that were being burned into ashes by hellfire.

The thirteenth floor was nothing but snow and cliff walls made of ice with the demons hiding and lurking on and behind the cliff. It was an easy task when Mykel destroyed and melted the cliffs but the problem rose when hundreds or even a thousand demons came out and decided to attack them.

Although there were so many of them, it wasn't a problem for Manna and the knights. There were barely injured knights from the battle and none of them died on the battlefield.

"The next floor should be harder than this floor, I want you guys to rest and take your time. I don't want to see a single of you die in the battle yet because we still have another floor to clear," Manna walked toward the knights who seemed fine and didn't even tire from the battle.

None of them were complaining and they really used their time to rest.

"Helden, come here for a moment," Manna looked at Helden who was resting on top of the debris.

Helden slid down as she put the bow on her back and jumped from debris to debris until she landed in front of Manna. They both were having a serious conversation and Mykel watched them from the distance.

"Sir Mykel Alester," Elric called Mykel as he walked toward him. "I heard from the knights you have a team of nine people that is currently clearing another tower. I'm curious how many towers that exist in your world,"

"All of them, a total of thirteen towers on each city," Mykel answered while he was sitting on debris.

"My Lord, that's a lot!" Elric replied. "But looking at how strong you are, I believe everything is fine over there, right?"

Mykel shook his head with a bit of a smile on his face. "No, in a few weeks, my world will have a breakout and currently we only cleared three towers. So, it's going to be a bloodbath in my world soon,"

"My condolences but death isn't as bad as you think, Sir Mykel Alester," Elric replied as he sat down on the ground and stared at the knights.

Mykel stared at Elric and didn't respond to his word because everyone in Veatika world had a screw loose in their head. Their interpretation of living was nothing but a temporary bliss and that was why they were so brave and managed to go to the thirtieth floor because they all wanted to die trying.

They were so strong that it was hard to die unless they didn't defend themselves which was a disgraceful death and they didn't want that either. The reason why they stopped from clearing the tower was because of Hades and Thanatos who promised them an eternal blissful life once they died.

Manna and the other seemed like normal people with a bit of admiration toward death but they were worse than that. The promise that Hades and Thanatos gave them affected their way of thinking and corrupted them.

They left the tower and imagine the painful deaths of those people they had saved. It gave them a thrill because knowing those people will die and would live in the afterlife blissfully.

They knew about the breakout and the more they ignored it, the more powerful the demons were. That was why they decided to come back and did nothing until a breakout happened to their world as they watched the people die in excitement.

Right at that moment, Mykel knew that he was the only normal person and surrounded by fanatics who admired death and worshipped them. Manna's gaze toward Mykel slowly changed, and her gaze indicated that she was planning on killing him once everything is over.

This revelation shocked all the constellations in the original story once Asmond saved Veatika world. Manna and her knights who were far stronger than Asmond decided to attack them and killed at least a hundred of them.

Mykel pretended to fall asleep and Manna immediately brought Elric and the others far away from Mykel. He was convinced that they were planning on killing him so he asked Loki and Hera to listen to their conversation secretly.

"Supreme Commander, should we try to do any harm to him right now? I can imagine how exciting to see ourselves die in his hands," Elric said with his left hand rubbing his face.

"Be patient, we will die but who will kill him if we didn't bring him to the demon servant? We all have to try to die on the battlefield," Manna answered as her eyes started to throb in excitement.

"We need to keep acting as if we care about our world," Helen said. "Ahh, I can't imagine how it feels if he tears my body apart," she said and her legs started shaking.

"Finally, we can die and offer our life for eternal bliss," Carson said. "God Hades, God, Thanatos, are you watching us right now! We are offering you a wonderful life for you to take,"

"Let's move," Manna said as she exhaled deeply.

Loki and Hera with the other constellations were listening to their conversation and it was enough to make all the Olympian Gods and Goddesses snap, especially Athena since Manna was her recipient.

Mykel sat up after he heard a notification and saw Hera was furious about the truth. Zeus and Hera decided to fight Hades and used their recipient in other worlds to kill Hades's recipients. It was the first time Hera and Zeus were working together after a while since Hera despised Zeus for what he did to her.

Mykel looked at the sky and smiled a bit while Loki was impressed with how sharp Mykel was since Loki himself didn't know they were corrupted.

"Sir Mykel Alester, we should get going now," Helden said as she stood below him.

"Alright, let's go," Mykel nodded and jumped down.

Mykel entered the fourteenth floor with Manna and the others.

The fourteenth floor was different and there were no walls or cliffs that blocked their path. It was just a vast green land with a single road that led into the forest which led them to the Veatika Empire.

"It seems that we are going to fight a horde of demons again," Manna stood next to Mykel and pointed at the forest.

"Can you handle it?" Mykel glanced at Manna and she was smiling and nodding her head.

"If I'm going to die today, then so be it, but I will die trying," Manna said as she slowly turned around and looked at the knights. "Sound the trumpets, we are going to attract their attention and bring them to us,"

A dozen of knights blew the trumpets and it echoed throughout the whole floor that the crows started to fly away. The sound of the demon horde was slowly getting louder and louder that came from inside the forest.

Manna unsheathed her sword and raised it up in the air. "Death!"

All of them were screaming the same word and then they all charged toward the horde of demons.

Manna and the knights fought the demons like it was a daily activity for them. They didn't fear anything and no matter how many demons were in front of them, they kept on putting themselves in danger.

Mykel wanted to make Gunnar and the others like them, people who fear nothing but it would be impossible for him to do so if he didn't know how to brainwash them. Mykel then got an idea as he watched Manna, he just found the right person for the experiment and maybe he would succeed this time.

The battle last for a whole hour while Mykel only watched from the distance with his throwing knives ready behind him. He watched all the demons get massacred while the knights were fine and not a single scratch on their bodies.

"Finally, we can see the empire again after so many years," Manna said as she sheathed her sword and stared at the red portal in front of her. "Mykel, let's go, and don't waste any more time,"

Mykel stood up and silently stared at Minna and the others. "I believe this will be the end for all of you here," he said as he flew the throwing knives at the knights.
