Mykel and the others waited for an hour until they got bored of waiting, but then they heard people talking from the distance. Their voices were heard because of how quiet it was since there wasn't a single noise but wind that carried the voices.

Jeanne and the others stood up and stood next to each other with their weapons ready. They started to feel tingles in their palms because they were so nervous, and their hearts started pounding fast when they heard their voices getting closer and closer.

"If you're that nervous, why don't you go and vent it all out with your Thunderbolt, Rozan?" Mykel asked with a cigarette in his mouth and stared at Rozan with a serious expression.

Rozan looked at the Thunderbolt in his hand and immediately raised it up high. He looked at the location where Asmond and the others were which was a few hundred meters away. He then struck them with bolts of lightning dozens of times.

Gunnar and the others could hear the screams and watched those Awakeners scattered to hide. Rozan felt a bit relieved and decided to keep on doing it because he didn't want to die without even trying. He then started to enjoy it and forgot his nervousness as he struck them nonstop and rapidly.

Gerrard squinted his eyes to look in the distance because the flashes were blinding him. Although he lost his ability to see in the distance, his eyes were trained long enough that he could see further than the others. He realized that the Awakeners who got struck by lightning kept standing up.

"Something is weird. They keep coming up no matter how many times you struck them with lightning," Gerrard pointed out as he looked at Rozan.

"It's not weird..." Mykel stood up and walked to the front to approach Rozan and the others. "Gods aren't immortal, and there's someone who makes them immortal. With that being said, these humans are immortal as well because she allows them to be one," Mykel explained and looked into the distance.

"So... it has been determined that we are going to lose, huh?" Aurea asked with a smirk and looked at the bolts of lightning.

"Well... just like what you guys did when you fought the Gods. No matter how many times they came back to life, their heads and subconscious couldn't take the pain and the torture anymore. Gods who have very high mentality could be broken, and now what about them? Human beings with little mentality," Mykel pointed out as he put his hands in his pockets.

Rozan looked at Mykel and knowing he had to harm and torture people with his own hands was a bit too much for him. He didn't want to say it because he didn't want Mykel to think that he was a coward after he said that he would stay.

"It's okay if you don't have the heart. Give it to me," Mykel said as he reached out his hand to Rozan.

Rozan hesitated to give the Thunderbolt to Mykel, but at the same time, he didn't want to keep doing it. He finally decided to give the Thunderbolt to Mykel because he couldn't do it.

(On the other side)

Asmond and the 60 Awakeners that followed him were struggling to protect themselves from the lightning. There wasn't a single building that was big enough to cover them, and they were in the open which made it worse.

"How can they still use magic like this if their skills have been disabled?!" Rufus asked as he hid on the only wall that stood tall around him.

"I don't know, but Goddess Mara wouldn't lie to us. That only means that Mykel has an artifact that can use magic without having to use skill," Asmond answered and looked at the people on the street who got struck by bolts of lightning over and over again.

They couldn't keep on doing things like that, and Asmond could tell even though they could come back to life, they could still feel pain. They would give up on killing Mykel and his team if they were being tortured over and over again.

"There's no other way," Asmond said as he looked at the others. "I'm going in on my own to distract them," Asmond continued.

"Please, Asmond. We are stuck here and you're the only one who can do it," Roxanne nodded her head in agreement.

Asmond drew his sword from his back and started running forward on his own as fast as he could. The distance between him and Mykel was not even that far, and it would only take him a minute or less.

It was as Asmond expected that Mykel immediately changed his target to him. But since he moved so fast and could react before the bolt of lightning struck him, he had no problem getting closer.

Seeing how Asmond was being focused on, Roxanne ordered the rest of the people to follow him. They all ran as fast as they could while they were looking at Asmond dodging all the lightning bolts. They believed it was finally the time for them to take revenge.

"Mykel!" Asmond yelled as he dashed toward Mykel who held Thunderbolt.

When Asmond got closer and could see Mykel in front of him, Jeanne blocked his path and it made him hesitate. The moment he hesitated, Mykel struck him with a thick lightning bolt, he managed to survive it, but he couldn't move a muscle since he got paralyzed.

Mykel looked down on him and didn't show any hesitation as he struck him with lightning bolts over and over until Asmond's [Void Shelter] skill popped and protected him. Mykel was prepared to strike him again as soon as the void clouds around Asmond disappeared, but then the Thunderbolt he was holding lost its power and started to dim. 𝙛𝓇𝑒𝗲𝒘e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕. com

"Someone really wants me dead," Mykel said as he slowly walked further back and threw the Thunderbolt away. "I guess this is it. We can only use our own strength from here and out," Mykel continued and looked at Roxanne and the others who approached him from the distance.

The void clouds around Asmond disappeared, and he was standing tall with his sword in his right hand. Sven and Vincze immediately swung their scythe and spear at Asmond, but he easily repelled their attacks and cut their armor in a single attack. He looked so pissed and he didn't care about dirtying his hands by killing humans.

Gunnar, Gerrard, and Lillith started attacking Asmond together, but it was futile because he was too strong for them. He dodged all the arrows and the attacks that Lillith threw at him, and Gunnar couldn't even block his attack as his hand immediately trembled when he blocked his attack.

? "Do you feel proud of this, Mykel? Using your own men as meat shields and forcing them to kill human beings!" Asmond yelled as he glared at Mykel. "What about you guys?! Why are you following a man like him?! Why are you okay with this? Getting ordered by him and do as what he said," Asmond asked as he looked at Jeanne and the others.

"Look who's talking," Mykel said as he scoffed.

Asmond looked at Mykel with a confused look.

"You're asking that question and yet you're following Mara's order and request. You didn't even ask a question why to her either, right? Then doesn't that makes you and them the same? They're following the God that they believe in," Mykel pointed out. "So, go ahead and dirty your hand for the God you believe in," Mykel continued with a smirk.

"That's because you have done bad things! You killed innocent lives and I'm going to put you down and judge you for your deeds!" Asmond pointed his sword at Mykel.

"Am I? What makes you think that Mara isn't the same as me? Do you know who started all this, who let the demons attack this world? You're just being used, poor you," Mykel chuckled.

Asmond gritted his teeth and then Roxanne with the others arrived. He looked at them and told them to deal with Gunnar and the rest of them because he wanted to fight Mykel on his own.

Roxanne and the others immediately made a path for Asmond so he didn't have to worry about getting attacked from behind. They all immediately fought Gunnar and the others, but they were reluctant to kill them because they had nothing to do with Mykel. But not some of them, they were blinded by rage and didn't hesitate to hurt them no matter if they were a man or a woman.

Asmond slowly walked toward Mykel as he sheathed his sword and put it on his back. He cracked his fingers as he gave a cold gaze at Mykel.

"What? You're going to beat me up to a pulp?" Mykel asked.

"That's the plan," Asmond said as he charged toward Mykel.
