Destroying My Own World

Mykel and Edith went to Shinhwa Clan headquarters to talk about their plans to deal with the current situation. Elena and the others went around to enjoy Korean food which they never had before while at the same time making them known to the people.

Jeong was a bit nervous because his actions earlier put him and his clan in a difficult spot, and he knew Mykel was disappointed with that. He then brought them to the meeting room privately, and weirdly enough each Awakener in Korea had a manager of their own like an idol or an artist. There were only Mykel and Lyneth in the room except for Jeong and his manager.

"What it was all about that you had to punch him in the face?" Mykel asked.

"I apologize in advance. It was because Kang Jo Yoon knows about Eun Soo leaving the clan. I was shocked and furious when he found out about it, and my head went blank when I punched him in the face," Jeong answered.

Mykel was surprised by the answer because he didn’t know anything about it, but then he understood why he was furious.

"What’s the reason for Eun Soo to leave the clan? Is it because she wants to move to the Raid Guild?" Lyneth asked with her eyebrows raised.

"No, she said that she wanted to go oversea for some unknown reason that she couldn’t tell. But even so, she said that she would come back to help if she was needed and she would come right away. Since she looked so eager to leave, I had no reason to let her stay after knowing that she would help us when we need her," Jeong answered, and he looked a bit sad and depressed.

"Can I get her information?" Mykel asked.

Jeong and his manager looked at each other, and his manager slowly shook his head. Mykel looked at those two, and he was curious about why he couldn’t get a hand on her information.

"I’m sorry, we can’t do that because Eun Soo and I have agreed to keep her ability a secret from anyone," Jeong answered.

"Let me guess, her ability is called a Virtue," Mykel said as he squinted his eyes and looked at Jeong.

His answer was enough to tell he was right when he saw Jeong and his manager’s reactions. They were shocked that Mykel knew about her ability, and that made them feel a bit uneasy.

"That’s right, but how did you know? The only ones who know about her power are my manager and me. Nobody knows about it," Jeong asked and he looked at Mykel with a confused look.

Mykel and Lyneth stared at each other and knew the reason why. It was because Mykel was there in South Korea, and that should be one of the reasons, and the other reason might be because she wanted to meet with Anzel and Gea.

"Because I have quite a lot of interesting information in my hand, but to think she’s one of them is really a surprise and not at the same time," Mykel said as he looked at Lyneth. "Looks like we have gotten something interesting," Mykel said to Lyneth.

Jeong and his manager were looking at Mykel and Lyneth with confused looks because they had no idea what they were talking about.

"But that’s not the important part. If Kang Jo Yoon knew about it, that means someone is spilling that information to him. Perhaps there’s someone in your clan that’s selling information to him, or worse there’s someone who’s working for him," Mykel said as he fixed his seating.

"Yes, but I have no idea who that might be. The only ones who know her resignation were me, my manager, and five other guys back when we were still in Beijing," Jeong replied.

"That’s not that hard if you keep this a secret from anyone and find out who the culprit is," Mykel said as he stood up. "Why don’t you deal with it on your own? I want to see if you’re still worthy of being in the Guilds of the World," Mykel continued as he grabbed his phone and then left with Lyneth.

Jeong was dumbfounded when he heard that from Mykel, and he panicked when he saw Mykel and Lyneth leave as if they had no more interest in the Sinhwa Clan.

Mykel left headquarters so quickly that the media hadn’t prepared for him. They all immediately got up and ran toward him and blocked his path so he couldn’t leave before giving them answers.

"Mister Mykel! What’s your opinion about what happened earlier? Jeong Ahn punched Kang Jo Yoon for no reason. Was it out of jealousy or inferiority? Or perhaps he feels threatened about his position as the strongest in South Korea?" The reporter asked.

"That’s something a child would do, so I have no further comment," Mykel answered, and then he forced his way out as he held Lyneth’s hand.

(Three days later)

Mykel was enjoying his coffee as he watched the news about the incident that happened three days ago. People were still talking about it, and not to mention his comments after he left Sinhwa Clan headquarters also became a hot topic. People started to assume that the Rebirth Guild questioned Jeong’s actions and that the Sinhwa Clan was in a bad position that might get them kicked out of the Guilds of the World.

"Whatever you’re trying to do, it seems to work really well that the reporters have been waiting in front of the hotel until now. How much longer until those guys stop bothering us?" Aurea asked.

"Well, they should start to get bored from not getting anything. Now let’s proceed with the next move," Mykel said as he looked at them. "Elena, why don’t we go out and hang out? Just the two of us," Mykel asked as he looked at Elena who was eating her onion rings.

"Okay. I’ll wash my hands," Elena answered as she stood up and she looked excited about it.

"Why Elena in particular?" Rozan asked as he looked at Mykel.

"Have you not seen the social media? The pictures of me and Elena have become trending all over the world. The caption is enough to tell why," Mykel answered.

"The Alester siblings, the strongest siblings in the world. I’m already getting sick of seeing that on TV and on the Internet..." Sven said as he sighed.

"What are you planning to do with that?" Lyneth asked. Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire

"You’ll see soon enough," Mykel answered with a smile, and then he left the hotel room with Elena.

Mykel and Elena drove in a rented car which was easily ignored by the reporters that waited in front of the hotel. It was nighttime so it was hard to see who was inside the car, and so Mykel left the hotel and went somewhere.

Elena walked out of the car and saw a building in front of her with loud music that could be heard from inside. Mykel brought her into a nightclub, and it was the first time for her to be in a place like that.

"So, why we are here?" Elena asked as she sat down after Mykel opened a table for them.

"To attract attention," Mykel answered.

"I don’t think anyone would recognize us here since this place is so crowded, dark, and loud. Who would want to be in this place, the reporters?" Elena asked.

"Well, you’re too young for this so you wouldn’t know. A nightclub is like a private area where reporters can’t get inside easily, and the one that I want to attract isn’t them, but someone else," Mykel answered. "It’s so easy to find information about certain people and where they usually hang out through social media," Mykel continued.

Elena was thinking really hard to understand what was inside Mykel’s head, and who he wanted to attract. It didn’t take a while until she realized why he made such a scene three days ago.

"Are you trying to lure Kang Jo Yoon here?" Elena asked.

"That’s right. What’s spicier than Jeong Ahn punching him in the face? Us two suddenly and coincidentally meeting with Kang Jo Yoon," Mykel answered and he looked happy when Elena got the answer correct.

"But what makes you think he would approach us? Doesn’t he hate us?" Elena asked with a confused look.

"Not after the media spread rumors," Mykel answered. "A man will be hungry for power, and he will use any kind of method to achieve it. Right now, he has a chance to get close to me," Mykel continued.

"And are you really going to take the Raid Guild over the Sinhwa Clan?" Elena asked.

"No, I’m just going to give him false hope, and might as well use him while we can," Mykel answered with a smile.
