Destroying My Own Novel

Mykel gave Luciel and Beldathiel some privacy and decided to go to the nearest floating island. He activated [Devil\'s Apparition] since Lucifer had something he wanted to talk about. Mykel also activated [World Protection] since the Empyrean World belonged to him as well.

"When I was up there, I found out something about her, Mykel," Lucifer said as he leaned on the tree. "I know you know almost everything, but you don\'t know when it comes to the Constellation\'s system," Lucifer looked at the four-horned deers in the distance.

"About what?" Mykel asked as he grabbed a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

Lucifer looked at the pack of cigarettes and decided to try it once since he had been seeing Mykel smoking in his previous life and in this life as well. He grabbed one as Mykel watched him put the cigarette in his mouth. Mykel then lit the cigarette in Lucifer\'s mouth and watched him inhale the smoke, but ended up coughing.

"Her being granted a level five Authority by the system at the beginning of the story that you created. You\'re wrong about the Domain Admin that\'s granted to her because she has a level five Authority. She got that skill by the system, not from the Authority level," Lucifer explained as he puffed the smoke and started to enjoy seeing a cloud of smoke coming out of his mouth.

"One thing that I realize as well is that she can\'t interfere with anything unless the Constellations are breaking the rules of the world. She\'s limited by her role as the protector unlike the other Constellations who have the freedom to do anything," Lucifer said as he kept smoking his cigarette.

"I see, so she\'s helpless at this moment," Mykel crossed his arms as he nodded his head with understanding. "That means the vision that Edith saw. There\'s a limitation for how much mess I can do before the system allows her to go down and deal with it herself," Mykel looked at the nine divinity floating island.

"Yes, I think so too. You\'re immune from the rule of the world, and the system can\'t touch you anymore. With that being said, the system can use another method to deal with you, and that\'s to send her down," Lucifer nodded his head and flicked the butt of the cigarette.

"That\'s good to know, but the problem right now is your daughter who doesn\'t want to get herself Recipients so she could raise her Authority level," Mykel sighed as he flicked the butt of the cigarette.

"So what do you suggest we do about it? My Authority level was given to me by her after all," Lucifer looked at Mykel.

"I think we need to find a way to convince her that it\'s the right thing to do," Mykel answered. "Let\'s hope Beldathiel is enough to convince, her," Mykel looked at Beldathiel and Luciel talking.

Beldathiel seemed to be listening to Luciel\'s side of the story, even though she already knew everything from Mykel.

"Do you think you can find any humans that are as capable as the people that Mykel has? I have seen them, we both have seen them. You can easily raise your Authority level to level three in a blink of an eye," Beldathiel said as she rested her head on the armrest and stared at Luciel.

"I thought it would be simple. Now that I know how everything works, I lose my interest," Luciel said as she leaned on the throne where Beldathiel was sitting on.

"You lose interest because you become someone you despise, isn\'t it?" Beldathiel asked. "I was thinking the same thing back then. Gods and their little games, but it changed once I found out not all Gods are benevolent. Some were vengeful and malevolent," Beldathiel explained.

"But do you know what makes us different from them even though we are basically similar?" Beldathiel asked.

Luciel turned around and looked at Beldathiel with curiosity.

"No matter how evil they are, no matter how they have killed thousands of humans, they\'re still being worshipped by them," Beldathiel said as she slowly dragged her butt to the edge of the seat.

"That\'s why I despise them. They\'re acting almighty since they\'re being worshipped and they all look at us with disgust," Luciel replied and watched Beldathiel swing her legs and her hanging bare feet.

"It\'s because they don\'t enslave them, eat them, take their souls like we, the demons do. No matter how evil a God is, they won\'t be doing that far, and that\'s why they\'re being worshipped because they fear them and not despise them. They despise the demons and will always pray to the Gods to help them," Beldathiel explained and looked at Luciel\'s wings. "Isn\'t that one of the reasons why we do that to humans? Because of jealousy?"

"Are you trying to persuade me?" Luciel asked with her arms crossed.

"Of course," Beldathiel answered without hesitation. "What\'s the point of having pride when you don\'t have anyone to show it or even recognize it?" Beldathiel looked Luciel in the eye.

Luciel scoffed as she shook her head. "Recognition? I don\'t need their recognition. I can kill them all if I want to, and then they will recognize me," Luciel answered, and she was so full of herself about it.

"Yes, but the recognition that you would get is despised and hatred because there\'s still a being stronger than you, and she\'s up there being their protector, and knew she would stop you from doing so. Didn\'t I just say that? Do you even know why they feared your father even though he barely did anything to them?" Beldathiel looked at Luciel and remembered how stubborn she was.

"Strength and power to rule them all. You have the strength but you have no authority to rule over them like your father had," Beldathiel sighed as she jumped down from the throne. "Don\'t you want to be feared by the mortals, respected by the Gods, and recognized by all the beings that exist? Or just being feared by all of them?" Beldathiel asked with her eyebrows raised.

"It\'s your nature, Luciel, the pride you have is your strongest point. Learn from your father and surpass him. You have Mykel and you can use him. In fact, he offered you to use him and his people, no?" Beldathiel asked again, and she could tell Luciel was starting to listen to her words.

"Do you really want to keep all of us being trampled and used by the Gods so they could gain a lot of things from this? It\'s time for you to join the game, and show them who you are," Beldathiel gave a stern look at Luciel. "The demons are in your hand now. Don\'t make us suffer more than this. Send to die, live to die another day. We live to die," Beldathiel frowned as she held Luciel\'s hand.

"I know that you\'re strong, but not the rest of us. We are nothing compared to the Gods. We are relying on your strength, but at the same time, you can\'t do this on your own. You can\'t rely on us because we are relying on you. Suppress your pride for a moment, just a single moment until you sit down among the Gods for all of us," Beldathiel said and held Lucifer\'s hand so tightly.

Luciel looked down at Beldathiel\'s hands and kept staring at them for quite a long time. She sighed as she nodded her head repeatedly.

"I will do that," Luciel answered.

"Thank you, sister," Beldathiel genuinely smiled at Luciel, and then she hugged Luciel so tightly it took her by surprise. "I believe in you, we all believe in you," Beldathiel said quietly.

Luciel hummed as she wrapped her arms and wings around Beldathiel. She didn\'t remember when the last time she got physical intimacy from anyone. She felt like she could do anything just because of that.

Mykel and Lucifer watched them both from the distance while enjoying their cigarettes.

"Like father like daughter. You always listened to Belphegor, and now Luciel is listening to Beldathiel," Mykel said as he puffed the smoke.

"I knew she would listen to her since they both were lonely and they both only had each other back then. They created a special bond with each other that nobody else had," Lucifer answered. "The future of the demons is in their hands now," Lucifer looked at the beautiful Empyrean.
