The Mythical Hunter has Returned - Chapter 152



Only Noblemtl

Episode 152

Golems appeared throughout the temple.

It was the golem we faced on the red dirt land.

A monster that was quite difficult to fight due to its huge size.

There are 12 golems in total.

Odin’s brow furrowed at the appearance of a golem that could easily deal with lower-level gods.

But I paid more attention to Heimdall standing behind him than to Odin.

‘You brought Heimdall, who was permanently banned from living as a god?’

You must have been in a hurry.

Even Heimdall, who committed a crime against his will, was brought here by force.

Permanent ban.

The worst punishment for a god is to fall to the level of a human, losing all of his rights and powers.

Only two gods were punished and lost their powers as gods.

Prometheus and Heimdall.

I know why the two gods received such punishment.

‘I went against the will of Odin and Zeus.’

There were many gods who did not follow the opinions of the three gods.

However, everyone simply remained silent and did not actively interfere with the Lord’s work.

But the two gods were different.

Prometheus said that humans should not be sacrificed to make them gods.

Heimdall said that in order to maintain balance in the world, humans must not be punished.

‘I was permanently excommunicated for disobeying God’s will.’

Those two were just examples.

To show what happens if you go against their will.

The punishment they received soon became the standard for the gods.

-Never disobey the Lord.

-The greatest opposition is silence.

Unlike Prometheus, who wholeheartedly opposed the choice of the three gods, Heimdall was a kind of trigger to instill fear in the renegade Prometheus and the other opposing gods.

In fact, he was more loyal to Odin than anyone else.

Like Huang Gai, who deceived Cao Cao by causing pain to his own body, he did not hesitate to resort to cruel and desperate measures.

Prometheus’ rebellion is brought to the surface, and the other gods are struck with fear.

It was the benefit Odin gained from Heimdall’s false excommunication.

Later, Heimdall died fighting Amut in the Abyss of Strife.

‘I heard you were working under a different name… … .’

If he brought Heimdall, it means Odin was really angry.

Heimdall and the other gods behind him were all people who believed in and followed the orders of their god.

Tyr, Baldur, Heimdall, and Thor’s wife Sif.

It was a lineup full of the will of the Norse gods to punish the human who killed Thor.

“Are you really going to fight? Then give it your all.”

Heimdall, who was behind Odin, asked my question.

“What are you going to do?”

Odin ground his teeth at Heimdall’s question.

“The sky has turned blue. This is not the Abyss we failed to conquer.”

Only then did the other gods raise their heads at Odin’s words.

You noticed.

The sound of a car horn could be heard in the distance.

Judging from the fact that we could hear human voices instead of the cries of monsters, it was clear that the Abyss had closed and we had come out of the temple.

I provoked the gods to gain legitimacy for the fight, but they did not give in easily.

As expected of an old raccoon, he’s quick-witted.

Odin’s only eye glowed.

“But why is Heimdall, who was permanently banned, with you?”

Heimdall answered my question as if he had been waiting for it.

“I am serving in the army in atonement for that day.”

As if it were a prepared answer.

“I see.”

Those words gave me confidence.

Heimdall is clearly a negative example, sacrificing himself to terrify the gods.

That was when.

The temple doors opened and Athena, Hades, and the Greek gods rushed in.

“Dojin! What is this!”

Those who had been blocking Zeus at the entrance to the Abyss hurried into the temple.

Behind them were a crowd of reporters who had come to capture the moment, as well as soldiers and police who had hurriedly arrived.

I looked around at them and said.

“I have conquered the Abyss of Despair, which even Thor, the god of lightning, could not conquer.”

I held the National Seal, the symbol of the Abyss and the device that operates this temple.

At my gesture, the temple began to move.

The golems surrounded me perfectly.

“I killed Amut, the lord of the Abyss, and took over ownership of his temple. From now on, this place will become the pantheon of the God Slayer Kim Do-jin.”

At those words, things began to stir.

It was ridiculous.

A mere human being is the pantheon.

But it would be a mistake to dismiss it as mere nonsense.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The majesty of the twelve golems guarding the temple was immense.

and.

Kwarrung!

I used Mjolnir in my other hand to strike down lightning.

Everyone present was startled by the lightning flash and focused their attention.

“I inherited the godhood of Thor. We fought over ownership of Mjolnir, and whoever was acknowledged by Mjolnir would have the godhood.”

“… … .”

The place began to tremble at the fact that Mjolnir’s lightning was caused by a mere human.

“That was true. When you broke through the siege of the Thor Guild members, you said you struck down a lightning bolt.”

“So that guy becomes the god of lightning? Even though he’s human?”

“It’s like a human becoming a god. There are demigods too.”

“I think I have a connection with Athena, Hades, and Loki.”

“Somehow I felt like I was openly flirting with Zeus.”

“There was a corner of faith.”

The camera took a picture of me.

Many eyes, including those of reporters, are turned toward me.

There are too many eyes watching you to fight me like this.

I could see Odin and Zeus’ faces distorted.

There is no justification.

Not only did he conquer the Abyss that no one else had conquered, he also received Mjolnir’s approval and is now using its power to his fullest.

In that situation, he argues that the confrontation with Thor was justified.

Since Thor is already dead and cannot testify, people will have no choice but to believe my words.

A human who can replace Thor, and maybe even be stronger than him!

The story will go in the opposite direction of what was said about the traitor who killed Thor.

What was scary about Thor’s death was that without him, the Abyss would not be stopped.

In fact, hope began to appear on people’s faces.

The era of humans has returned.

We hope that we too can see hope because of the human being named Kim Do-jin.

Even if it’s just a small spark.

On the other hand, the faces of the two gods hardened even more.

‘It looks like the set is doing well since Ragaga isn’t coming.’

Odin and Zeus stepped back, their fists clenched.

Anyway, I’ve accomplished something and public opinion is on my side.

Fighting here would be a burden to both gods.

The gods still need human faith.

There was nothing to be gained by attacking me, the hero, here.

“I ask for your continued support, seniors.”

I shouted at the departing gods.

I could feel the deep anger in their backs.

After the two priests left, the reporters continued to ask questions.

“How did you conquer it!”

“Why were you chosen by Mjolnir?”

“Was there anything unusual during the attack?”

“Don’t you feel guilty about killing Thor?”

I was tied up with reporters for about 10 minutes and answered questions as honestly as I could.

The world will soon be in an uproar.

* * *

“… How did this happen?”

After everyone left, Athena pointed to the temple and asked.

“I don’t know either.”

“You don’t know?”

“Originally, I was going to seal this temple as well.”

“But it didn’t work?”

“yes.”

“Is this really your pantheon?”

“Yes.”

Athena looked upon the temple of Amut, the goddess of strife.

The temple, made of wood and tiles, which looked like something you would see in the Middle East, had a classical yet magnificent beauty.

The trees and shrubs planted in between exuded a gentle beauty.

It was a temple that did not fit with its nickname of the god of struggle.

“It’s strange. Whenever I see you, the common sense I thought I knew is always shattered.”

“I think the same.”

Hades, who had been listening to the story, also joined in.

“With this, you have come to confront the Lords. Of course, we who helped you will not be able to escape their wrath either.”

“I know.”

There were quite a few gods who had complaints about God.

It just wasn’t on the surface.

I was the signal that made those gods move.

I know that not all gods seek freedom from human belief.

I will get them on my side.

‘Because I said I’d use anything.’

“Now that you have defeated Thor and obtained Mjolnir, I ask you, is there a way to defeat the three gods? The gods supported by the creator god?”

I held my breath at Hades’ question.

It was not an easy enemy.

On our side, the only ones who can stand against them are me and Set, who has become stronger than you.

Although Athena and Hades were the most powerful of the upper gods, there were many upper gods who followed the main god.

There was still an absolute shortage of numbers.

“The variable is Loki.”

Depending on which side he, a high-ranking official, takes, the situation changes greatly.

It remains to be seen whether he will help me.

“That’s too big of a variable.”

Hades clicked his tongue.

“Is there any way to persuade him?”

“There is no such thing.”

How much does Loki care about Lee Hyun?

That was the point.

* * *

That time.

“Hey, Lee Hyun! How many days have you been ignoring me? Hold my hand right now. I can give you anything you want.”

Loki was still flying next to Lee Hyun, making him a tempting offer.

But no matter how much I said, Lee Hyeon silently did what he had to do.

“…It’s noisy.”

“You reacted so violently when I told you about Dojin, but you don’t seem to care about the rest of it?”

“You don’t know.”

“what?”

“Dojin is a special chosen being. He is a great being that a legacy of the past like you cannot dare to look down on.”

Loki felt his head get blocked by Lee Hyun’s words that looked down on God.

“Ha, I can hold out for a while, but this is a bit of a pain.”

Legacy of the past.

It was the word that the gods who descended into this world hated the most.

In reality, they were people who had become a legacy and were forgotten by everyone, and were on the verge of extinction.

The same was true for Loki.

“What’s so great about him? He’s a special person, but isn’t that all?”

Loki, floating in the air, circled around and asked Lee Hyeon.

“So you have become a legacy of the past.”

“Tsk, then tell me. I don’t know because I’m foolish with the legacy of that past.”

Lee Hyeon, who had been glaring at him with cold eyes, opened his mouth calmly.

“Why should I do that? How dare you order me around? You bastard.”

Loki met Hyun’s gaze and took a step back without realizing it due to the pressure that was covering his body.

What was it?

It was a presence so huge that I couldn’t stand for even a moment.

At first… no, it was a familiar feeling.

The presence he felt from the one who led him to this world, just before he descended into this world, when he was rotting away in a forgotten world.

-Prove yourselves, and I will give you complete freedom.

Why do I feel a similar sensation to ‘that’ from the human in front of me?

“You… what the hell are you?”

But Lee Hyeon did not answer.

Just move forward.

Loki stood there blankly, watching Lee Hyun’s back as he walked away.

“Fuck.”

Loki followed Lee Hyeon, forcibly holding his trembling hands.

I was curious.

What he saw.

Why did Lee Hyun have similar powers?

I needed to find out.

No, I had to know.
