Destroying My Own World

Chapter 163 A new recruit.

Beldathiel was sleeping in her bed, but was suddenly awoken by something and immediately sat up to look outside the window. She felt an unknown power had just entered her domain, and so she came out to the balcony to check where she felt the power was coming from.

She looked into the distance, but she couldn't feel the power anymore, not even a tiny bit of it. She wondered if she was just imagining things or not because it felt real and yet she didn't find anything. She decided to fly there and went to Niagara Falls, but she didn't find anything. Before she left, she could smell a trace of divine power, and it was nothing like what she had smelled before.

Although she was suspicious, she couldn't do anything because she couldn't smell it anymore. She informed Amaryllis about what she found, and Amaryllis immediately came to check it out herself.

"You're not wrong. This is indeed a divine power, a powerful one as well," Amaryllis said as she stared at the spot where Uriel landed. "Weirdly enough, I can't sense it anywhere. It wouldn't be a surprise if you couldn't track it," Amaryllis added as she looked at Beldathiel in her sleeping dress with bare feet.

"Can I go back to sleep now since you're here?" Beldathiel asked as she yawned.

"Of course. You did a great job to notice it even while you're asleep. I'll handle it from now on," Amaryllis smiled gently at Beldathiel as she nodded her head.

Beldathiel flew away and went back to her room to sleep again.

Amaryllis looked around and stared at the waterfalls in front of her, and she noticed that there was something odd about it. She then flew up high and looked at Niagara Falls from above to observe the surroundings. She found a faint divine power coming from the bottom of the sea, and so she dove down into the water to check it out.

When she reached the bottom, she found a book and took it with her back to the surface. She looked at the book and she didn't understand a single word inside it because it was a language that she had never seen before. The book didn't get wet at all, and it contained a divine power, she then wondered if what Beldathiel felt was the book that she held.

She decided to take the book with her and brought it to the Empyrean World so she could learn about it. After she left, Uriel came out of the bushes and sighed in relief when she was safe and almost got caught by those two.

"I never thought it would be dangerous even for me to go down here," Uriel said to himself. "Thankfully I managed to make them believe it was nothing but that book. It's a shame, but since they won't understand the language, I have no problem with that," Uriel continued as she looked around and left the area.

Uriel wandered around the city and found nobody which made things harder for her to blend in. She thought of a way for her to be able to get close to Mykel, but at the same time didn't bring suspicion for Mykel. Luckily, she found some people who still lived in the city, and decided to join them. She had all the knowledge she needed and it was so easy for her to blend in and adapt to them.

She pretended that she came from another city and seek for shelter and food after she survived on her own for months. It was easy to gain their sympathy and empathy, and she also got all the information about the current situation at the same time.

"You want to work for the Rebirth Guild? Honestly, we won't stop you, but you're only putting yourself in danger. We still have enough food here, so why don't you just enjoy it while it last and leave once we ran out of food?" A man asked Uriel who was eating a pizza.

"I'm interested in them," Uriel answered and found that the pizza was disgustingly delicious.

"Oh, sweetheart. Please don't tell us you're one of them. You're not those people who believe that the Rebirth Guild is the righteous one, right?" An old lady asked as she looked at Uriel with concern.

"No, I just want to know them with my own two eyes and ears," Uriel answered and grabbed another pizza. "Also, if I want to live, I have to work right? I have no plan on leaving this country, so I'm going to work there," Uriel pointed out.

She found out that although people were still leaving without worries, the food and water would soon run out. The Rebirth Guild offered them food, water, and all the necessities that the people needed for them to live there. Nobody knew how exactly the Rebirth Guild had supplies to feed them or people to facilitate their needs since everyone had left the country.

Uriel already knew about that since Amaryllis was the one who provided all the necessities including food, water, electricity, and maintenance of all things. She did all that on her own and it only took her a minute to master all the things to make Mykel live comfortably.

"You're such a hard-working child. There are a lot of better places than here, sweetheart. I'll even help you find a place and a job for you if you come with me," The old lady said.

"I'm okay, I'll stay here. Thank you for the food, it was delicious," Uriel said as she looked at them with a gentle smile.

Her smile was enough to melt their hearts and they wanted to please her more. She immediately realized that her aura was making them act that way, so she hid it and lived like a human being. After she said goodbye to them, she went straight to Rebirth Guild headquarters to apply for a job.

When she arrived, she was welcomed by the receptionist and she told them her reason for visiting. The receptionist called Edith since she was the one who dealt with new recruits.

"Ariel Greens?" Edith asked as she approached Uriel who was sitting on the comfy sofa.

"Yes, that's me," Uriel nodded her head and smiled at Edith. "You're as beautiful as I saw on TV," Uriel said.

Edith didn't expect to get a compliment from a stranger, and she immediately thought that Uriel was one of those guys who believed in the Rebirth Guild. She thanked Uriel and then started to do a simple and short interview since the guild didn't have any requirements and qualifications to work there.

She listened to Uriel's story and she was amazed at what Uriel achieved. She didn't judge Uriel's story, she was in fact listening to it with excitement and praised her for her bravery.

"Alright, Miss Ariel Greens, welcome to the Rebirth Guild. The receptionist will guide you to the fitting room for your attire and she will also tell you everything about the guild," Edith said as she stood up and smiled at Uriel.

"Thank you, Miss Edith," Uriel smiled as she nodded her head with understanding. "Oh, before you go. I have been wondering, if will I be able to meet with Mykel Alester. I'm a fan," Uriel said shyly.

Edith raised her eyebrows and then chuckled, "Unfortunately, he's very busy at the moment. But, once he's back, you can meet him."

Uriel was a bit disappointed, but she hid it with her smile, and then she excused herself to meet with the receptionist. Edith watched her enter the elevator and then went back to inform Lyneth about the new recruit.

"Ariel Greens, a survivor from Los Angeles. That's like on the other side of the country. How was she? Found anything suspicious about her?" Lyneth asked.

"She's lovely," Edith answered. "But she's too lovely and innocent for someone who survived for months on her own," Edith added as she looked at Lyneth with a serious expression.

"I see, keep an eye on her. She said that she wanted to meet with Mykel, right? I guess we can use that opportunity to find out who she is once Mykel is back," Lyneth said as she looked at the photo of Uriel that was taken earlier for her employee card. "Her appearance and the thing that Beldathiel sensed, it wasn't just a coincidence," Lyneth pointed out.
