Destroying My Own World

Amaryllis was watching Mykel staring at the objects on the table in front of him with his arms crossed. He had been staring at it for half an hour, and since Amaryllis was summoned to assist him, she stood right behind Mykel and waited patiently. Although she had been patiently waiting, she couldn't help but be curious about what Mykel was thinking.

"Is there something that has been bothering you?" Amaryllis asked as she tilted her head and tried to look at Mykel's expression.

"Words," Mykel answered.

The answer only made Amaryllis more curious and confused at the same time. But before she could ask, she saw Mykel walk toward the cube which was [Lust], and the octahedron which was [Wrath]. He grabbed both of them and put them side by side as he looked at them back and forth.

"If we combine both of them together, what kind of emotion it will produce?" Mykel asked as he slowly walked back and stood next to Amaryllis.

Amaryllis hummed and started to do the same pose as Mykel when he was thinking earlier.

"Since Wrath has always been associated with violence and Lust with sexual pleasure..." Amaryllis paused as she tried to find the right word for both.

"Sadist is the word," Mykel answered as he dragged a chair right in front of the table and then sat on it. "What about Lust and Greed?" Mykel asked as he grabbed the octahedron and the cylinder next to each other.

"Greed is associated with materialistic and if it is combined with Lust, then it should produce Deviance," Amaryllis answered, but she was unsure about it. "There are dozens of words that might fit in with both words combined, but what's the point of doing that?" Amaryllis asked as she stood behind Mykel.

"I'm thinking if all those emotions that we can create with these seven deadly sins, do you think there's one emotion that will fit all those emotions combined?" Mykel asked with his eyebrows raised.

"You're planning to combine all of them and create a masterpiece? That will take a lot of time. Perhaps it will take years since there are only fourteen objects," Amaryllis answered and she started to feel the excitement when she thought about it.

"We are in my world, that won't be a problem," Mykel said as he removed his tie and rolled his sleeves. "You're going to assist me and help me create one emotion that will overrule all the other emotions," Mykel continued as he looked at all the fourteen objects in front of him.

The two of them were working in a hidden world where nobody knew the location because Mykel didn't want to be bothered. He even ordered Amaryllis to not tell anyone about what he was doing, not even Elena.

Amaryllis tried to recreate similar objects like those fourteen, but it didn't work because of the power that was contained inside the objects. They both had given up on trying to recreate it and didn't want to waste their time on that.

They worked nonstop for days, weeks, and months, and yet they hadn't even reached fifty percent of the total emotions that existed. The reason why it took so long was that Mykel had to redo all the processes over and over because of the limited objects.

The good thing was that the emotions that Mykel had combined could be registered in his system. It was Amaryllis's plan all along to create something more than what she was capable of. They had discovered something that nobody could understand, and it made them understand how a creation worked.

They were having too much fun that they didn't realize they had spent two years there. It was only a week into the real world, and everyone had been wondering where Mykel was.

The objects and the emotions with different dark colors from the beginning since they were bad emotions had turned upside down. After combining and discovering more than ninety percent of the emotions, Mykel and Amaryllis created the Seven Virtues of Emotions. Those Seven Virtues' emotions were exactly the same as what Anzel and the others possessed.

"Looking at these lights, it makes me feel like we have achieved greatness," Amaryllis said as the objects that used to be gloomy and eerie had turned into a bright light that gave warmth.

"How many emotions we have created?" Mykel asked as he looked at the objects with blinding lights inside.

"Based on my knowledge, we have reached ninety-nine percent of the emotions that exist. To be honest, I have no idea which emotion we haven't registered, and I believe we almost reached the end," Amaryllis answered.

"We have both the seven virtues and sins in front of us, and we haven't tried to combine them all together. It sounds impossible to combine them since they're the opposite emotions of each other, but let's see what will come out," Mykel said as he lined all the fourteen objects in front of them.

Amaryllis nodded with understanding and then combined all fourteen emotions into one object. When she did that, the object was shaking uncontrollably and it suddenly cracked and then shattered right in front of them.

They both were surprised and saw the orb floating right in front of them which released mixed emotions. It made both of them feel threatened and curious at the same time, and then Mykel didn't hesitate to grab it with his hand.

"This feeling..." Amaryllis paused and she looked anxious about it. "It's the same feeling when I saw The Lord with my own eyes..." Amaryllis continued.

Mykel looked at Amaryllis with a curious look, and then he looked at the orb that floated above his right palm. He wondered if what he held was an emotion that any living being couldn't have. If that were the case, Mykel was holding a part of The Lord in his grasp, something only The Lord had.

"A God particle," Mykel said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"A God particle?" Amaryllis asked with her eyebrows furrowed.

"It's just a parable," Mykel answered as he shook his head. "Since we don't know if this is dangerous or not for you, I should take it in case something bad happens," Mykel suggested as he looked at Amaryllis.

Amaryllis nodded with understanding and watched Mykel slowly put the orb close to his chest. The moment he put the orb inside his body, he felt every particle inside his body listening to him. It was the weirdest feeling because he could move every muscle, body part, and even a strand of his hair that were impossible to do.

"Mykel?" Amaryllis asked as he looked at Mykel from behind.

Mykel turned around to look at Amaryllis, and when he looked at her, Amaryllis skipped a beat and looked at him with admiration, fear, lust, envy, and all the emotions combined. She immediately looked down and didn't want to look at his face because she knew that it was dangerous. Lastly, when she was standing in front of him for quite a while, she slowly felt like she had lost her strength.

"You're okay?" Mykel asked.

Mykel's voice was like a storm inside Amaryllis' mind, and she couldn't handle it that she started to groan and crouched as she held her head. Looking at her reaction, Mykel was worried and gently put his left hand on her shoulder.

"Amaryllis?" Mykel asked in a worried tone.

This time the voice was like a calm and relaxing breeze that made her feel at peace. She slowly looked up, and all the mixed feelings slowly disappeared, leaving only calmness and admiration.

"What kind of emotion is that?" Amaryllis asked as she slowly stood up.

"I'm not sure, but something is changing inside me," Mykel answered. "As we speak, something keeps growing inside me," Mykel added.

Mykel sat down and tried to understand what was happening inside his body, and suddenly a notification appeared in front of him.

"Who would have thought that I can get this power," Mykel chuckled in disbelief.
