Destroying My Own Novel

152 Chapter 151

“Are you done?” Agnez stared at Asmond, Enma, and Kastor.

“Yes, we are ready to leave,” Kastor was smiling as he looked at the loot in his hands.

“Good, we will be going to Mahazael Tower now,” Agnez said as she walked toward the portal with Gunnar and the others.

“Wait, we might have a little problem,” Kastor said. “Enma doesn’t have a shield, I don’t think we can go now,” Kastor explained as he looked at Agnez who stared at Enma.

Agnez clicked her tongue and sighed then she looked at Gunnar. “You still have your spare shield in the car, right? Give that one to her,” Agnez said.

“Yeah, sure, fine by me,” Gunnar replied and nodded his head. “Come on, Enma, I will give you my second favorite shield!”

Agnez crossed her arms and stared at Kastor. “Problem solved, is there anything else you want to complain about or whine about?” Agnez asked with her eyebrow raised. “We will be meeting at Mahazael Tower tomorrow morning, don’t be late,”

Agnez and the others left the portal except for Mykel who stayed behind to congratulate Asmond.

“I see that you got a different gift from the others, was it from your Benefactor?” Mykel asked with a smile on his face.

“Yeah! She gave me this, I feel like this thing would make a difference. I can’t wait to use this and make it a sword,” Asmond answered with a big smile on his face. “I need to find the best blacksmith to make a weapon for me,”

Mykel looked at Kastor and raised his eyebrows. “Don’t you guys have a workshop?”

“We do, but if we are talking about a material like this, it’s better to get the best blacksmith to make a weapon from it,” Kastor replied as he nodded his head.

“Right, good luck with that,” Mykel said with his hands in his pockets and Kastor interpreted it as if Mykel was mocking him and saying that he wouldn’t find the blacksmith that they were looking for. “Anyway, I will see you tomorrow, Asmond, and congratulation on your first chest,” Mykel said and then walked away as he waved at Asmond.

Mykel and the others flew to District 3 since they were going to clear the fifteenth floor of Mahazael Tower.

“I remember that you promised me that I would get anything I want if I manage to clear the fifteenth floor,” Agnez leaned her head toward Mykel’s ear as she whispered. “You knew what I want, so let’s do it in your room,” Agnez whispered as she stared at the others walking in the hallway of the hotel.

? Mykel stopped walking and grabbed Agnez’s wrist then dragged her away from the other.

“This whole floor is rented for us, we can just do it in any room we want,” Mykel said as he used the key card to open the room in front of him. “We have a whole day, and that would be enough to try everything you want,”

Agnez smiled in excitement and closed the door behind her as she gently pushed Mykel with her other hand.

Hours passed, everyone was watching a movie and they noticed that both Mykel and Agnez went missing. They just didn’t bother to ask where they were, but not Jeanne, she was anxious but didn’t know what to do.

“I’m going to go outside,” Jeanne said as an excuse to look for Mykel.

“Oh? Can you buy me something on your way back?” Gunnar asked but then Rozan elbowed him on the stomach which made Gunnar confused. “What?”

Rozan rolled his eyes as he sighed. “Seriously?” Rozan asked as he gave him a signal by opening his eyes wide open.

“Oh,” Gunnar just realized and then he looked at Jeanne. “Never mind that, Jeanne,” Gunnar said as he chuckled nervously.

Jeanne just smiled and then she left the room, and the first thing she did was go to where Mykel’s room which was at the end of the hallway. She walked the hallway nervously because she didn’t want to hear what she didn’t want to hear and hope that they were just talking and nothing else.

Jeanne stood in front of Mykel’s room or supposed to be but she didn’t hear anything from inside nor a presence behind the door. She was confused and glad at the same time, but that didn’t make her anxiety disappear, and so she decided to walk the other way.

When Jeanne walked past one of the rooms, she heard a moan loud enough from the room from her left. Her heart skipped a beat the moment she heard the familiar voice, she then breathed heavily as she stared at the door.

The moan stopped and Jeanne walked toward the door and tried to listen, but she didn’t hear anything for a whole minute until the door suddenly opened and startled her.

“Do you need something?” Agnez asked with Mykel’s black shirt on her body.

Jeanne didn’t know what to say because she felt like her chest was being ripped apart into pieces.

“I can’t stop sniffing his smell on his shirt,” Agnez said as she sniffed the collar and stared at Jeanne.

That was enough to make Jeanne drop a tear down to her chin while Agnez chuckled at her. Suddenly Mykel approached Agnez and wrapped his arm around Agnez’s waist and pulled her back. She slammed the door as she laughed and giggled naughtily at Mykel.

Jeanne was in disbelief that Mykel didn’t even care about her presence at all and ignored her like she was nothing to him. She scoffed and started crying then she left hurriedly because she couldn’t take it anymore nor did she want to hear them making love.

Jeanne was on her own in the cafe with her red eyes while she was enjoying her coffee at the counter. She looked at the TV and it made things worse because everyone was watching Asmond and immediately talked about him.

“Jeanne?” A familiar voice was calling Jeanne from behind, the same voice that came from the TV.

Jeanne closed her eyes and rubbed her face in frustration, she tried to ignore Asmond and hoped that he wouldn’t bother her.

Everyone in the cafe was approaching Asmond and they were all cheering and congratulating him for clearing the fifteenth floor. Jeanne could hear him boasting himself as if it was him who cleared the fifteenth floor and told them that he got a reward that would help him clear the Mahazael Tower tomorrow.

“Hey, are you on your own?” Asmond asked as he sat next to Jeanne and looked around to see if Mykel or the others were with her but he didn’t find anyone. “What are you doing here by yourself? Where are the others?” Asmond asked again with a smile on his face because he thought it was the perfect moment to be alone with her.

“Can you not bother me?” Jeanne asked with her nasal voice as she was still covering her face.

Asmond was shocked when he heard Jeanne’s voice and he knew that she was crying. He got down from the chair and immediately walked closer to her, but before he could say a word, Jeanne pushed him away.

“Do you even listen to me?!” Jeanne asked and showed her red eyes and nose as she glared at Asmond with an annoyed face.

Everyone was looking at Jeanne, they were startled by her shout while Asmond was still in shock.

Jeanne decided to leave but before she could walk away, Asmond grabbed her left wrist and pulled her with a bit of force. She didn’t like it at all and so she used force to remove Asmond’s hand from her wrist, but he kept resisting and started hurting her.

“Let go of me!” Jeanne said as she pushed Asmond to the counter with her right hand with quite a lot of strength.

The counter was damaged but Asmond didn’t want to let go.

“Why are you doing this to me, Jeanne?” Asmond asked with a pitiful voice and frowned his eyebrows. “What did I do that made you hate me? You have changed, Jeanne,”

“Me? Changed? Of course, but you need to look at yourself in the mirror, Asmond. The moment you become the center of the attention, you’re no longer the Asmond that I knew, you’re just a stranger to me now,” Jeanne replied and glared at him with hatred.

Asmond removed his hand from Jeanne’s wrist not because he wanted to but because everyone was watching him. He had to keep his cool and didn’t want a rumor to spread around about him treating a woman harshly.

“Look at you, you care more about your image than anything else now,” Jeanne quivered with a smirk of disgust.

Jeanne left the cafe and hurriedly walk away from the cafe but Asmond didn’t give up on her and decided to follow her.

Before Asmond could catch up to Jeanne, he saw her suddenly stop walking, and then he saw Mykel standing on the sidewalk under the traffic light. Mykel stared at Jeanne with his eyebrows furrowed and then he moved his gaze toward Asmond making him scared because he didn’t want Mykel to misunderstand the situation.

Jeanne stared at Mykel and then she walked toward him with teary eyes, she was so mad, disappointed, and anxious at the same time. She stood right in front of him and started to cry, Mykel opened his arms and Jeanne immediately hugged him so tightly.

Asmond watched Jeanne in Mykel’s arms and she looked happy and comfortable by his side which made Asmond’s heart ache quite painfully. Mykel hugged her and stroked her hair without saying a single word as he stared at the notification in front of him.

“It’s alright, I’m here,” Mykel said to Jeanne as he stared at Asmond with a straight face.
