Chapter 549: To lure you in.

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Mykel was barely conscious and he could see himself getting dragged into the sky. His mind was blank because he felt like he would die if he closed his eyes, so he tried so hard to focus on keeping his eyes open. He saw himself leaving Earth and leaving the solar system in just a second as if he was being sucked into a black hole.

He glanced his eyes at his surroundings so slowly and realized it was the same place when Mara brought him. He then got thrown into the empty space and his wounds were healed completely. He tried to stand up, but then a powerful force forced him to stay down to his knees and made him unable to move his body at all.

He opened his status screen and saw all his skills were still disabled except his [Admin] skill. It was a relief, but he couldn’t use his muscles because of Mara and he couldn’t tap on the screen in front of him. He couldn’t even move his neck to touch the screen, and so he was stuck there until Mara allowed him to move his body.

Mykel waited for Mara to appear before him, but he realized he was abandoned in that empty space. He didn’t even know if an hour had passed, a day, or a week. He then remembered what Sif said about him that he was in a void of eternal loneliness.

Days, weeks, and lastly months had passed since Mykel was brought to the Void Clouds. Mykel started to understand what loneliness felt like, and it was unbearable especially when he didn’t even feel tired which made him unable to sleep. He was tortured by Mara and his eyes were fixated on the status screen in front of him.

“I’m amazed that you stayed quiet even after what happened,” Mara’s voice echoed throughout the space.

Mykel blankly stared at his status screen and didn’t even realize that Mara was speaking to him. The moment he saw Mara appear in front of him, that was when he realized that the time had finally come. He stared Mara in the eye and blankly stared at her without showing any expression.

Mara slowly put her hands on Mykel’s cheeks and looked at him with a huge smile on her face. She was so happy to see him in that condition, and it was worth the wait.

“Did you miss your women?” Mara asked.

“These women,” Mara showed a projected screen in front of Mykel and saw Hera, Lyneth, and Luciel being held in a similar place as him. They both looked broken and in a similar state as him. “Also, look at her,” Mara showed another screen to Mykel, and this time it was Jeanne.

Mykel was mildly shocked when he saw Jeanne get old, and she was with Asmond and his friends. The earth was still in the same condition as the last time he saw it, but there was a village. They managed to survive and created a new environment that was enough to make them live.

Jeanne looked happy and she was laughing with Asmond as they were eating something that looked like porridge. Suddenly a man and a girl approached them both, they looked like Asmond and Jeanne.

“Look at them live happily without you, and how she finally decided to forget you. I keep her skills disabled so that she couldn’t do anything but accept her fate,” Mara whispered into Mykel’s ear.

Mykel suddenly chuckled as he lowered his head, he then said, “How many times are you going to try to fool me with your cheap illusions, Mara?” “I might believe it if you didn’t put Lyneth amongst the women you showed me,” Mykel said with a smirk.

Mara was surprised that Mykel knew that it was an illusion by only looking at it for a few seconds. She then glanced at Lyneth on the screen and wondered why he was so confident that Lyneth wouldn’t get hurt.

“Are you curious as to why I know it was an illusion by just seeing Lyneth there? If you want to know the answer, why don’t you try and go hurt her,” Mykel said with a smirk.

“That child of yours. I think I know the thing that can break you,” Mara said as she walked away.

“Can you let me see it through this screen if you’re going to try to harm my daughter? I would love to see you try,” Mykel said as he looked at her. “But I wonder if it would break me if you hurt or killed her since she’s nothing but a newly created character in my eyes,” Mykel continued.

Mara stopped walking and slowly turned around to look at Mykel with a curious look on her face. Mykel was smiling at her and raised his eyebrows as if he knew that she was intrigued by what he said.

“Aren’t you curious? Why you can’t read my mind or my past? Who I am, where did I come from, how could I destroy what you have built, and lastly to know everything?” Mykel asked as he watched Mara walk back toward him. “I’ll tell you everything, but let me move my body first because I have been in this position for a very long time,” Mykel said as he looked at his body that hadn’t moved a muscle.

Mara squinted her eyes and looked at him with suspicion because letting him move a muscle alone would cause her trouble. She didn’t want to make a mistake by listening to him because she knew how good he was with words.

“You have the power to negotiate here, you’re going to run out of time as your body grows older. The moment you die, I will take your soul and get all the information that I want. You can stay there and enjoy your time,” Mara said.

“Why bother waiting? Just kill me now and see what will happen. Let’s just hope that once I died, this whole thing will stay intact and not erased from existence,” Mykel replied as he sighed and stared at the space above his head. “If I die, this world will die with me,” Mykel continued with a smile.

Mara didn’t know if she should believe him or not because it might be a trap, but at the same time, if he was telling the truth, she would regret it. She then covered the whole space with void clouds and it made Mykel curious about what she was trying to do.

“If you dare to make a suspicious movement, I’ll kill you right in the spot before you can even move a muscle,” Mara said as she looked at Mykel was being covered with void clouds.

“What would I do? You disabled my skills,” Mykel answered so calmly.

Mara removed the restriction on Mykel’s body, and the moment Mykel could move his body, he tried to stand up, but he fell down to his knees again. His knees were so weak that he couldn’t even stand up as his knees started to tremble.

“Now tell me, or I will bind you again,” Mara said as she looked at how pathetic Mykel’s condition was.

Mykel didn’t say anything as he sat down and wiggled his index finger, signaling Mara to get closer to him. Mara didn’t want to and she was just staring at him and unfazed by whatever he was trying to attempt.

“I’ll give you three seconds to give me the answer…” Mara said with a cold expression.

Mykel smirked as he stared at Mara, and he started to wiggle his finger again without saying anything.

“Two…” Mara said.

“One?” Mykel asked as he stood up.

Mara was surprised that he suddenly had the strength to stand up. She immediately tried to attack him with the void clouds that had been lurking around Mykel’s body, but for some reason, the void clouds didn’t want to follow her orders.

“What’s wrong? Did you lose something?” Mykel asked as he walked toward Mara with a smile and right eyebrow raised.

Mara was so confused and when she looked at her status screen, she lost her [Domain Admin], [Void Manipulation], [Void Omnipotence], [Dominion], [Void Cloud], [Void Space], [Void Shelter], and [Void Sanctuary] skills. She was shocked by the sudden disappearance of all her skills.

Mykel’s first wiggle movement of his index finger was to remove his disability and to type Mara’s name on the Command. The second wiggle was to remove her powerful skills from her status.

“Now you can’t run away, and I can kill you here and now,” Mykel said as he grabbed Mara’s neck with his left hand. “I was trying to lure you in so you could bring me into your stupid realm because I can’t find your goddamn realm. I have been patiently waiting until you let down your guard or I would blow this chance and you would run away when you found out that I have this kind of power,” Mykel tightened his grip as he stared at Mara.

Mara tried to use her [Authority] to leave, but then she was shocked when her [Authority] had turned into level 1. She looked at the amount of [Arcana Coins] that she had, but it was a big zero. Everything she had and possessed was slowly being erased. She then looked at Mykel and realized that he was the one who did all that to her.

“How does it feel to be trapped in your own realm now?” Mykel asked as he moved the void clouds and wrapped them around Mara.
