Chapter 2: Chapter 2: What happened.
(A year ago in space near Earth)
"These angels... they're nothing like what we dealt with inside the Lucifer Tower. They're so powerful that even Lucifer and Bhatmelec can't handle more than a dozen of them," Rozan said as he rode Alpha which had become half the size of Nidhoggr.
"Is this really the world where you live, boss? No wonder that you're so strong. All these beings are on par with all of us, and yet we haven't seen the one who said to be creating those angels," Gunnar looked at Mykel who was fascinated and in awe when he saw hundreds of angels descending from space.
"Just focus on dealing with them. Their numbers are unknown and it seems there will be a whole army coming toward us," Mykel answered and saw dot-like stars in the distance space that moved at the speed of light coming toward them.
They all fought with everything they got, and yet neither the angels nor Mykel's army were injured. Both armies had instant regeneration, the angels got it from their God's will, and Mykel's army from the system's help. Fortunately, Mykel, Jeanne, Aurea, Lucifer, Luciel, Bhatmelec, and Elena could kill them instantly so that the angels couldn't regenerate or form themselves back.
The seven of them turned the tide that made the angels overwhelmed by Mykel's power and presence. But, the angels didn't show any fear and kept fighting with everything they got. More and more angels came down from heaven to fight them until every last one of them failed to stop Mykel's army.
"What a fierce enemy we have..." Lucifer said as he looked at his own sword covered in silver. "Now is the fina-" Lucifer stopped in the middle of his sentence and blankly stared at the space.
Mykel and the others looked at Lucifer with confused looks, but then Lucifer's face slowly deformed and reformed itself. They were surprised when Lucifer's face no longer looked like Mykel's and his long hair turned black that covered his face. His six white feathered wings turned dark gray with ashes coming down from the gap of each feather.

Mykel was shocked when he looked at the notifications that were flooding in front of his eyes. He was so confused as to what had happened and why suddenly all the Demon Kings and specifically Lilith were removed from the system. Not just them, but all the Gods and the Constellations were removed from the system.
[Due to synchronizing, all of the characters in the story that exist on Earth have become independent and come back to their true nature]
"(You're telling me that all the characters I created from real mythologies have become real individuals and no longer characters of my story?)" Mykel asked the system and looked at all the names on the notifications. "(Does that mean they're no longer our allies?)"
[Correct. All the mentioned characters have become real entities and are no longer characters and are not affected by the system because they do exist in this world]
"(Try to bind them with the system at all costs)" Mykel said and he looked a bit restless.
[Due to the system still loading and processing the newly discovered world to prevent problems, the system will be unavailable for such a request. The system will start looking for solutions as soon as the system finishes loading]
"(How long will it takes?)" Mykel asked after he read the notification.
[Due to various reasons, the time needed for the system to take control over this world is approximately two years. With that being said, the Owner cannot use the System in the meantime]
Mykel was surprised, but he didn't let it bother him and hoped the system would find a solution. He then looked at Lucifer, Hera, Nyx, and the others who were around him. They were all acting weird and it made Jeanne and the others confused as to what had happened to them.
"Ignore them and just focus on Lucifer," Mykel said as he spread his wings and flew toward Lucifer. "(This would be bad if he changed sides. I need to deal with him first)" Mykel thought to himself.
Before Mykel could grab Lucifer's shoulder, a loud trumpet sounded and disintegrated his wings. He felt powerless as if he was drowning in the sea and couldn't move his body at all. He didn't know what had happened to him, but he saw a blinding light that appeared from space and the notification in front of his face.
[WARNING!]
[THE SYSTEM IS BEING BREACHED BY EXTERNAL FORCE. THE SYSTEM IS TAKING ACTION TO PREVENT THE EXTERNAL FORCE FROM TAKING OVER OR DESTROYING THE SYSTEM]

[THE SYSTEM HAS DECIDED TO SHUT DOWN TEMPORARILY FOR THE SYSTEM'S SAFETY]
A giant golden gate as big as the solar system appeared from thin air far in the distance and it slowly opened. Two angels came out of it and they were the biggest he had ever seen which stunned him.
"Mykel!" Jeanne screamed and caught Mykel who floated in space. "What happened?! Are you alright?!" Jeanne looked at Mykel with a worried expression.
Mykel was thinking about it, and when he wanted to recover from whatever happened to him, he realized his [Admin] skill was grayed out. He couldn't use it, and then he remembered that the system became unavailable because it was trying to bind everything and everyone with the system. He started to feel suffocated and his body became weak so he couldn't do anything about it.
"Bring me down. Bring me down to earth, now," Mykel said as he tried to hold his breath.
Jeanne didn't ask any further and flew down to earth before Mykel lost all his power. He believed it wasn't because of the System, but something else that made him like that. He thought if there was God, then his maker was the one who turned him back into a normal human being.
Elena and the others watched as Jeanne carried Mykel in her arms as she flew back down to earth with confused looks. Elena who could hear and understand Mykel's thoughts and feelings, felt enraged and looked at Lucifer, Michael, and Gabriel.
"I'll take the lead, follow me," Elena said as she clenched her fists and her whole body started to glow bright.
Suddenly, she lost her power and felt weak. Not only her, but everyone also lost their powers. They were all confused by what had happened, and before they could think, a giant blackhole appeared right behind them and sucked them inside. Mykel was being carried by Jeanne also got sucked into the black hole and they couldn't do anything about it.
(Back to present)
"That's what happened, so we can only wait and get ourselves stronger right now," Mykel explained as he stood on top of a gargoyle's dead body and pulled the knife from the gargoyle's neck.
"So we are on our own. But at least the demons are afraid of us thanks to our system that made them fear us," Aurea stared at the corpses of the incubus and succubus that she killed.
"If the Lord that Lucifer mentioned is really able to recreate the system and make it his, he should be able to change that soon. We should use this opportunity and abuse it," Mykel explained as he jumped down and looked at his new status window in front of him. "Let's keep moving and clean all the demons in the city," Mykel continued.
All of them nodded their heads and followed Mykel from behind.
"Mykel, are we going to clear this?" Jeanne asked.
"Maybe. Maybe not," Mykel answered as he looked at Jeanne over his shoulder with a smile. "I don't like when someone told me what to do even if it's the God who created me," Mykel continued.
