Chapter 302

Mikael bid them farewell, he knew that Furrneka and Niña would further cry and try to stop him. So he left before his mind falter and turn his feet around. He smiled before he left them. 

He started walking away from them, his heart was swelling as he realized that he had a family he could return to. He swallowed all his frustration and left them. He promised that he would return.

As his feet kept advancing, he saw that Christian and William were waiting for him. Christian greeted him with a smile and reached his hand, Mikael took it. 

"Glad to see you again, Mikael."

"Yeah. By the way, I didn't know that you and Colt are actually brothers."

"What? What did you say?"

"Nevermind."

Christian tensed but Mikael did not have any reason to talk to him. No matter how much his smiling face changed, it was still creepy for Mikael.

Christian was anxious on the inside, he was wondering if he had to put stalkers to follow his younger brother. He didn't want Colt to get infected with Mikael's stupidity. 

"Yow, wazzup the guy I've beaten."

Mikael turned to William and extended his hand but William sneered. He was still having a grudge when Mikael pummeled him in the Tournament. Mikael shrugged and let it slide. He did not have any intention of getting friendly to a person who clearly hated him. 

Christian glanced at William, signaling him to start. William nodded and activated his Skill. He touched the ground and a portion of it altered into a teleportation device. William spent his time studying how teleportation device works to replicate it. His power was quite overpowered, although he had to understand the mechanics of the said item before he could replicate it.

Mikael whistled, he was fascinated by these CGI effects. Almost as if he was watching a scene from Fullmetal Alchemist. He turned to William Olivia and asked him. 

"Have you watched Fullmetal Alchemist?"

"Sorry, I'm not a weeaboo."

"What? You're racist!"

"I'm not…" William sighed. "I did not watch Fullmetal Alchemist, but I watched Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Apparently, my Skill works just like Alchemy in that series."

"Oh, God! We are best friends!"

"No, we're not."

William denied him before the relationship even started. He clicked his tongue and switched the device on. In a way, William could be recognized as a Teleporter just like Kaya. He set the coordinates into an island where Kyle was waiting. 

"Let's go."

They entered the teleportation and their bodies disappeared. A few seconds after they vanished, the device crumbled and return to the soil. 

Mikael and the others were transported into another place. The first thing they see was the beautiful endless ocean, a tropical breeze hit them as the sun shone brightly. 

Mikael and the others were on the island where the Hidden Dungeon currently stayed. They turned around, sure enough, a bunch of coconut trees stood like a fortress. Mikael felt thirsty so he grabbed a coconut fruit and drank it, it was refreshing. 

"So you're here."

Kyle appeared with his Hawaiian shirt, he looked like he has taken a vacation. He was wearing a shade and greeted them with a smile. 

"Yow, wazzup."

Mikael said and slurped the juice. Kyle glanced at him and gave him some ice cubes for the coconut juice. 

"Are you ready to enter the Dungeon?"

"Hell yeah."

"Just to make sure, no one knows what's inside that place and I can't guarantee your safety. However, one thing I can be sure of, you will become powerful after you left that place. Perhaps stronger than anyone."

"That's the kind of thing I want to hear. You don't have to worry about me, I know that the place I'm going to is not a children's park. My resolve is far decisive, I'm ready to take that Dungeon."

"Good."

Kyle smiled, perhaps this was the reason why he first thought of Mikael when he remembered the Hidden Dungeon. Except for Kim Soo-Woon, he was the next worthy to enter that place. 

"I heard that you have a Title."

"Ah yeah, I have."

Mikael was surprised that Kyle knew about his Title but he was not that shocked. Kyle had a lot of ways to gather information and Mikael was not hiding the fact that he had Title anyway. 

"That's better, your Title can help you."

Mikael finished the coconut and took out a letter, it was from Niña. 

"This is from Niña, I don't know what she wrote but I can guess it."

"Hm."

Kyle took the letter, he smirked while reading it. That woman, she still had the guts to threaten him. He ripped the letter and faced Mikael. 

"Now that you are going to be gone for a long time, I want to have a private conversation with you before you leave."

Kyle signaled Christian and William to leave. William immediately followed his command while Christian just shrugged and left them. He chuckled and cut a coconut fruit using his Telekinesis. 

Kyle and Mikael were left alone in the open wide shore. 

"I can see that you have something you want to ask. This is the right time."

Mikael nodded, he had one thing that he wanted to know. He wanted to make sure that his decision would be the right one. 

"Kyle, I know that you are hiding a big secret, possibly about the future of this world. I will not ask anything significant that can disturb your inner peace, I just want to ask you a question."

Mikael stared at Kyle, his presence was heavy that even the surrounding trees almost kneel because of fear. 

"This world… this world is dying right?"

That was the best question he could ask. To be honest, he wanted to ask Kyle a lot of things but he decided to go with this. The current status of their world was important. 

Kyle did not avert his gaze. He already knew that Mikael would ask him about this kind of question. Because in the first place, the real reason why he would enter the Hidden Dungeon was to keep this world intact so that his family would remain safe. If the home was broken, the family would crumble.

"Yes, this world is dying. Not only that, the humanity, the demihumans, everything will die."

Kyle said with seriousness. He was honest as he recalled how the planet he tried to protect slowly died in the past. He did not want that to happen.
