Chapter 422

Chapter 422

Mikael opened his eyes and looked at Andromeda who was holding her expression well. Although, Mikael could see the tinge of red on her face.

However, Mikael didn't bother saying a thing. Because he could discern that Andromeda had a reason why she did it.

'I'm not that stupid not to see her feelings. It's just that I don't know how to respond.'

As a man who was known for being a playboy in high school, Mikael could see that Andromeda had feelings for him. But he didn't know how intense it was.

"I wish that you will return safely."

She sincerely said and Mikael nodded.

"I will."

She smiled at his answer.

Then, the atmosphere turned awkward again. After all, the two were conscious of themselves. Mikael didn't have a topic to say and Andromeda was still bridled by her actions.

In the end, they shut their mouths as minutes passed.

"So it's over."

Princess Belle returned after she confirmed that they were finished with their conversation.

"Belle, what's the plan?"

"Relax, I have something to say to the Saintess too. Don't think that the reason we came here is for you to have a heart-to-heart talk with the Saintess. I have my own reasons too."

Princess Belle giggled and approached the blushing Saintess.

She whispered something in her ears that caused Andromeda to become cold and serious. Her expression turned from shy to serious.

Mikael tried to listen, but he failed. As a God, he had a strong sense of hearing. However, he realized that a barrier made of wind was blocking their conversation.

When Princess Belle was finished, Andromeda nodded at her and waved them goodbye.

"Mikael, please take care of yourself."

She had a worried look but she didn't say anything after that.

"Don't worry, I will not die easily."

"It's time to leave this place."

After Princess Belle said this, a new portal materialized. Now, the portal was connected to the hidden location where ten thousand Hunters were preparing to attack the Underworld.

When Mikael and Princess Belle entered the portal, Andromeda sighed in relief as he plopped to the ground. She was exhausted.

She was holding herself so that she won't fall while they were still in the room.

"If I have a chance again, I will be brave enough to say my real feelings."

She had a determined expression despite being exhausted.

......

...

...

"Delabelle Zuri y Angsalvor..."

Mikael murmured looking at the woman in front of him. Now he became more interested in learning who this woman really was.

When they reached the place, people looked at them first but they immediately returned to their job of preparing their equipment.

They didn't know how long they would stay in the Underworld so they decided to bring Items that might help them.

"Mikael!?"

Seven found him and he started running. When he approached him, he was shocked when he found that Princess Belle was with him.

He eyed Mikael but Mikael simply shrugged.

"So you want to join the mission."

"Yeah, someone nagged me to join."

He glanced at Princess Belle but the woman already left to meet her soldiers. She didn't have the time to linger on, she had her job too.

"Hah, thank God. Now that you are here, our chances of winning increased."

"You think so?"

"Hell yeah! I still can't forget what you did in the Maldives! You killed that Kraken alone! That is enough to show your strength. Now I'm at ease."

Seven sighed in relief knowing that Mikael would join the mission. At first, he was nervous because he knew the danger that they were going to face.

"Remember, I'm here because of only one thing, revenge. Make sure that you won't die."

"I will try."

Seven bitterly smiled. He knew his ability.

"Looks like Kyle and Miriam want to meet you, I'll take my leave."

Seven could see that the couple was approaching Mikael, so he immediately fled. He was traumatized by Kyle and he did not want to get near the devil.

Mikael chuckled and let him be. He faced the couple who was quite shocked to meet him. They thought Mikael won't join.

"I almost thought that you don't have dignity for leaving us."

Kyle laughed and greeted him.

"Pride won't bring me anything."

He answered making the atmosphere awkward.

"I'm happy to see you Mikael."

Miriam tried her best to make the situation better. Mikael simply nodded and walked away, leaving the couple.

Miriam wanted to say something but knowing Mikael, she understood that it would be futile. She sadly smiled but Kyle was there to hold her hand, squeezing it.

Mikael went to the corner, the Hunters didn't dare to block his way as they know how brutal Mikael was. They created a path for him and he safely reached his place.

He eyed the people inside the place. He didn't have much of a problem.

However, his pupils contracted when he looked at a certain person. He instinctively tried to summon his weapon but he realized that Princess Belle was already in front of him to stop him.

It seemed that she finished her job regarding the Elves.

"Mikael, you have to be patient. It's not the time."

She looked into his eyes with no fear.

"What are you doing? Don't stop me."

Mikael looked at her coldly, probing for an answer.

"I know what you're thinking, but this is not the right time. Once we reached the Underworld, you can do everything you want. But for now, you have to hold yourself. You will cause a problem if you do it."

Her palm gently pushed Mikael. The man leaned against the wall and his aura dissipated. He clicked his tongue.

"Do what you want. But if I found that --"

"I know, you will kill me."

She nodded, not showing any fear. As of right now, only she could control Mikael. Maybe Mikael started trusting her.

"I'm happy to see you again."

"..."

Mikael didn't answer.
