Destroying My Own Novel-Chapter 487 486: Choose Who To Sacrifice.

"Mi-Mister Mykel... Let me explain!" Roxanne raised her hands and tried to lower the tension.

Mykel glanced at Roxanne and then slowly walked toward her with a cold expression. Roxanne was obnoxious by the situation she was in and regretted opening her mouth. Mykel then offered his hand to her without saying a single word.

Roxanne slowly reached her hand on Mykel's hand, and then held it because she was too scared to think and followed her instincts to avoid problems. Mykel lifted her up which surprised her that even though he looked angry, he was still acting like a gentleman.

"You can start talking, Miss Roxanne," Mykel said calmly.

Roxanne explained to Mykel why Enma was there in District 4 with her. Since Enma got exposed, there was no reason to hide anything from him anymore. She told him about Enma helping them in District 5 when they dealt with the mammoth. She believed by exposing one truth should be enough to cover the other truths from getting revealed.

Roxanne tried her best to not act suspicious or nervous while she explained things to Mykel. Suddenly, Mykel smirked at her as if he already knew what she was trying to do, and it made her head go blank.

"There's a reason why all the people that I chose can behave, Miss Roxanne. I can tell when they have an ill intention or things they try to hide from me," Mykel put his hands on her shoulders and stared her in the eye. "They respect me because they fear me, Miss Roxanne. Unfortunately, she's not someone that I chose," Mykel glanced at Enma who had been hiding her face from Mykel.

"It's convenient that both of you are here because I can tell you both are hiding something from me. Since both of you are trying so hard to hide it, that means it has something to do with me, and that should be about the same thing that Asmond tried to dig, isn't it?" Mykel smiled as he tightened his grip.

Roxanne was petrified and too scared to resist or move her body.

"Roxanne! Enma!" Asmond shouted as he got off the humvee. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

Mykel glanced at Asmond and his team, and immediately cast a wind barrier to prevent them from coming. He then slowly turned Roxanne's body and wrapped his left arm around her neck from behind. He also used [Telekinesis] and brought Enma to his side and wrapped his right arm around her neck.

"Mykel! Let both of them go!" Asmond banged the barrier because he knew it was impossible for him to break or anyone.

"Both of them? Enma belongs to the Guild Association, and you don't have the authority to command me. In the first place, I'm not hurting them, so why are you acting like that?" Mykel looked at Asmond with his eyebrows raised.

Asmond clenched his fists and tried to calm himself down.

"What is it that you want, Mykel? Why are you making this barrier if you're trying to hurt them?" Asmond asked and stared at Roxanne who was petrified and tears started falling down to her chin.

"You catch up with the situation pretty quick. I was wondering what you guys have been doing with Enma, and what did she give you," Mykel answered and stared Asmond in the eye. "Your answer will determine whether I'll let them go or not," Mykel continued and looked at Roxanne and Enma.

Rufus and the others didn't know what it was all about since Asmond didn't tell them. Asmond was thinking so hard about whether to tell Mykel what he knew or not because if Mykel knew what Enma gave him, Mykel wouldn't let them go.

"You can keep quiet about it while I will try using force to make Miss Roxanne speak," Mykel put his hand on Roxanne's forehead from behind. "I don't like wasting time, Asmond, and you know it," Mykel continued and gave a cold stare at him.

"Promise me one thing first, Mykel!" Asmond said and he looked desperate.

"Of course, say it," Mykel answered.

"I want you to let both of them go without harming them both physically or mentally. In exchange, I'll tell you everything, and I mean everything that you want," Asmond gritted his teeth as he put his hands on the barrier.

"A fair trade. I'll promise that I won't do anything to them," Mykel nodded his head in agreement.

Asmond sent the soldiers and the Awakeners that with him away since it was something they shouldn't hear to respect Mykel and his secrets. After all of them left and made sure nobody was around except his team, he started spilling everything without hesitation. Rufus and the others were shocked when they heard the truth behind Mykel's dark secrets, and they were glaring at him with hatred.

Roxanne started breaking a cold sweat and her heart pounded so fast that she might faint at any moment.

"I have told you everything, Mykel. So, please let them go," Asmond said as he caught his breath.

"Not yet. You're still hiding one thing from me. You haven't told me about the person who gave you that information when you came to my office, Asmond," Mykel didn't let his eyes off of Asmond's eyes and his arms were still wrapping Roxanne and Enma's necks. "You said that you'll tell me everything that I want, and that's the last thing I want to know," Mykel continued.

Asmond's fingertips went cold in an instant when Mykel mentioned it. He was in a dilemma about whether to sacrifice Roxanne and Enma or sacrifice Evelyn. He didn't know what to do, but then Mykel cracked his knuckles and put his hands on their heads.

"Miss Evelyn," Asmond answered quietly as he lowered his head and felt ashamed of himself.

"I see, looks like I have to deal with her now. Thank you for the valuable information, Asmond," Mykel smiled and removed his hands from Roxanne and Enma. "Also, I don't need her anymore. You can take her back or leave her be. I don't care," Mykel glanced at Enma became pale since she lost a lot of blood. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

Enma collapsed and fainted, but Roxanne grabbed her before Enma hit the ground.

"Roxanne, please take care of Enma for me, please," Asmond felt so weak after betraying the person he promised to protect.

Roxanne nodded and left as she carried Enma on her back. She used one of the humvees that were left behind and went back to District 3 to get Enma treated.

"We don't have time to be gloomy, Asmond. Weren't you the one who said that we should focus on the breakout and deal with the others later?" Rufus asked and stared at Asmond with a bit annoyed expression. "There's still one Demon Lord that we need to take care of," Rufus continued as he walked past Asmond.

Asmond nodded his head in agreement and went straight to the border to District 5. The General had been informed that the Demon Lord was somehow easy to deal with just like the mammoth one. The General believed it would be possible if he used a bigger size of a nuclear bomb, but the problem was there wasn't a single Awakener that could lure the Demon Lord away.

"That's good news. There's no need for us to deal with this one. All we have to do is just lure it, right?" Rufus asked as he ran to the front with Asmond.

"Yeah, so let's do this as fast as possible," Asmond nodded his head.

They all managed to lure the Demon Lord that looked like a four-legged dragon with a long neck but without wings. It was hard since the Demon Lord could move so fast even though his body was so big, and not to mention his roar was enough to collapse a building.

"Why do we end up playing hide and seek with a demon like this?!" Rufus yelled as he jumped from one building to another since the Demon Lord was following him. "How far we should lure this fucking dragon?!" Rufus dodged all the rubble and debris that were falling right above him.

"further in the forest! Around 2 kilometers since this time they're going to use a bigger nuclear weapon. We don't want the city gets contaminated by radiation," Glen answered as he tagged with Rufus and replaced his position as bait.

They managed to lure the Demon Lord deep in the forest, and the fighter jets came not long after Asmond lured the Demon Lord. They switched places and used the fighter jets as a distraction while Asmond and his team ran away to avoid the radiation.

The aircraft came and dropped the nuclear bomb on the Demon Lord. The blast could be seen from the neighboring Districts, and they were terrified by it. No matter how they looked at it, they lost even though the Demon Lord was killed.

"We can't keep on doing this. Sooner or later District Five will be contaminated by radiation and can't be used for living," Asmond said as he looked at the blast.

"We know that already, but since we are done here, don't we all have another thing to take care of? If there's nothing else, I want to meet Keysha. You better go and check that lawyer you sold," Rufus said as he walked away.

Asmond glanced at Rufus and let him leave since he promised that he could leave once the breakout was over.

"I'm going to go and check Miss Evelyn," Asmond said as he removed his armor.

"You mean we?" Glen asked with a smile.

"Let's go then," Asmond smiled and chuckled.
