Episode 178
“You came sooner than I expected. From the looks of it… Zeus and Odin must have died because of you.”
I looked at Lee Hyeon standing across from me.
He was looking at me with a bright smile.
He didn’t seem at all surprised that I showed up.
Rather, it was a look in her eyes that seemed to have been expected.
As soon as he saw me, he put down his hand that was about to finish Athena off.
As if it was waiting for me to come.
Seeing Lee Hyeon’s appearance, where his hostility had disappeared, I looked at the gods who had been hit by him.
Starting with Hades, and ending with Athena, who stood firm until the end in Promise.
They were all hit by Lee Hyeon alone.
There wasn’t a single one of Lee Hyun’s allies nearby.
How much stronger have you become in such a short period of time?
‘It’s gotten strangely strong.’
It wasn’t like this when we met last time.
He had powers comparable to those of the Lord of the Lords, but that was it.
What was great about Lee Hyun was the symbolism he possessed.
It was because of the symbolism of being a hero of humanity.
But the current Lee Hyun.
‘monster.’
It could be defined in one word.
It’s as expected that he’s become this strong.
‘I received the power of the Creator.’
It was a strength that could not be explained otherwise.
“Kim Do-jin, the fact that you came this quickly means that you are much stronger than I expected. Or the two people I gave you were much weaker than I thought.”
“… … .”
Even though he knew that I killed them, Lee Hyun maintained a relaxed attitude.
“How did you get so strong?”
“Didn’t you already know the answer? I thought so.”
“Are you the Creator?”
Instead of answering, Lee Hyeon just smiled quietly.
But his smile already contained a positive meaning.
I recalled memories from my past life.
The appearance of Lee Hyeon, who has completely achieved the descent of the Creator God in the final Abyss.
It was completely different from how it looked back then.
I didn’t feel any overwhelming divine power over my opponent. I didn’t even feel like I was being crushed by a presence.
At that time, Lee Hyun, who had completely absorbed the Creator, felt as if he was facing a vast world.
‘I don’t know how far the advent of the Creator has progressed.’
It was true that no matter how much you were on guard, it was not enough.
Can I beat Lee Hyeon now?
It wasn’t completely impossible.
Obtained their skills by killing Odin and Zeus.
As the guy became stronger by accepting the Creator God, I also became stronger by killing the gods.
[The Center of Norse Mythology, the Prophet – SSS-Class]
[Skill: God of Magic]
[Description: Odin, the prophet who is proficient in all magic, is not subject to any restrictions on magic.]
[Effect: You can use 9th grade magic 5 times without casting time. – Duration: 1 week]
[There is a skill called ‘Pharaoh’s Eye (S)’, which is the skill of Horus and Ra, the god of magicians and a being skilled in magic.]
[The Eye of the God of Magic and the Eye of the Pharaoh automatically fuse.]
When combined with the existing skill, Eye of Ra, the power of the skill went up one level further.
[Skill: Magic Eye – SSS-Grade]
[Description: Your eyes are sharp and you can sense all the flow of mana. There is nothing in this world that can fool you.]
[Effect 1: You can use 9th grade magic 5 times without any casting time limit. – Duration: 1 week]
[Effect 2: You can see all the mana flows.]
[Effect 3: All existing Pharaoh’s Eye effects can be used.]
[Effect 4: Can analyze and dismantle the opponent’s magic. (8th grade)]
Because both of them had overwhelming performance, the magic eye that combined the god’s skills had an absurd performance.
At least when dealing with wizards, it will exert absolute power.
The ability he gained by killing Zeus was also SSS-level, like Odin’s.
[The center of Greek mythology, the god of lightning – SSS-class]
[Skill: Infinite Brain Power]
[Explanation: Zeus’ power over nature and providence is nearly infinite. His authority has reached you.]
[Effect: You can freely control the power of lightning.]
[There is a skill of the God of Lightning, Thor, called ‘Master of Mjolnir (SSS)’.]
[The Master of Infinite Lightning and Mjolnir automatically fuse.]
Zeus’s skill was also strengthened once more by fusing it with Thor’s existing skill.
The symbol of Zeus was added to the Mjolnir I already had, and the skills of the two became one and were recorded in my history book.
[Skill: Thunderbolt – Rank cannot be specified]
[Description: You have gained the absolute power of the gods who can manipulate lightning, and have become lightning itself.]
[Effect: You can put yourself in a ‘lightning’ state.]
[Lightning State: Speed increased by 500%, damage reduced by 50%, gain telescopic vision – 5 minutes per day usage limit]
The skill created by combining the skills of Zeus and Thor was so powerful that it could not be ranked.
This is the first time I’ve seen such an absurd effect.
‘Could this be an EX-level skill effect?’
What made me speechless the most was that, despite the incredible effectiveness of this skill, it had no side effects.
There is just a usage time limit of 5 minutes per day.
Lee Hyun has become stronger, but I have also become just as strong.
In addition to the skills obtained in this way, stats also increased evenly as various Pokedex books were completed.
So much so that you don’t necessarily have to rely on equipment and skills.
but.
‘Odin knew how I could become strong.’
There was a high probability that Lee Hyeon also knew that.
Then you would know that I would have become much stronger if I had defeated Zeus and Odin.
However, he used Odin and Zeus as his opponents.
I sacrificed them to steal my gaze and aim from behind.
Why on earth?
“I feel like I have a lot to ask.”
“Why did you use Odin and Zeus as bait to buy time? If you had joined forces with them and attacked me, you could have defeated me.”
“…They are also fake gods in the end.”
“what?”
“I’m talking about fake gods. They are not truly transcendent beings, but simply people who want to reign over humans. They are no different from humans, so they are gods? That’s ridiculous.”
Lee Hyeon smiled and lifted the window.
“It’s the same reason I’m killing these guys now. I need to kill the false gods who call themselves gods and bring about the right justice.”
“So you sent Odin and Zeus to me?”
“Yes. Those two thought they could kill you, but they could never do that. I believed in you. In the end, the false gods will die by the hands of you, an unbeliever.”
“… … .”
I kept my mouth shut.
I thought the two were a solid alliance.
An alliance that is not very strong, but we need each other, to fight against me.
Wasn’t that it?
“You seem to have a lot on your mind.”
“What is your purpose?”
“My purpose? Are you curious?”
“… … .”
Lee Hyeon took a step closer, holding the window.
“The Creator said that after going through this ordeal, a new world will open up. A perfect utopia where there will be no weak or strong. The chosen ones will no longer have to live in pain.”
“It’s similar to what the gods claimed when they claimed to be free from their beliefs.”
They used the Abyss to resolve their suffering.
And it was the same for Lee Hyeon-do.
Of course, Lee Hyeon said that other gods who pursue desires are fake gods.
“I believed that you would understand someday.”
“I don’t understand.”
I will never be able to do it again.
Because without pain there is no happiness.
Knowing the value of light because there is darkness.
Because there is yin, we can know the warmth of yang.
Besides, Lee Hyeon said that they were the chosen ones.
“Do those who are not chosen die?”
“Yeah. They won’t be able to reach utopia.”
His tone was colder than ever.
Those words gave me confidence in my choice.
Lee Hyeon is also a guy who thinks the same as other gods.
“Okay, I get what you mean.”
Lee Hyun couldn’t stand to watch the fake gods claim to be the real god.
So you used me to kill Zeus and Odin.
Because he, who sided with God, could not kill them himself.
‘No matter how great he is, if he faces the two gods, he will inevitably attract people’s attention.’
And while I was dealing with the two gods, I hunted down the fake gods who were so ugly.
“One thing is clear: you must never be left alive.”
“Yeah, that goes for me too.”
Light came from Lee Hyeon’s window.
Kroong!
The clouds in the sky parted and light fell on Lee Hyeon.
Hwaaaat!
The fallen light gathered at the tip of the spear.
“There is no reason for us to fight each other, so let’s start now.”
As soon as Lee Hyun finished speaking, he rushed forward.
Pfft!
His huge spear was aimed at my heart.
Flash!
Lightning struck, and Mjolnir struck Lee Hyun’s spear.
The huge window swung sideways, sharply changing direction.
“He is certainly strong. He is the chosen one of his enemies.”
“antagonist?”
“What? You didn’t know? Tsk, Dojin, it seems the being that chose you isn’t very kind.”
The Abyss of Desire spoke to me.
The reason I came back to the past was because my earnest desire reached him.
And the fact that the gods sought salvation through the Abyss was also because they were chosen by the Abyss of Desire.
So naturally, I thought that the Abyss of Desire was related to the Creator God.
But he is the enemy of the Creator.
‘What does this mean?’
Lee Hyun didn’t give me time to think.
His spear was aimed at my heart again.
I blocked the bastard’s attack with Mjolnir and quickly cast an 8th-level spell.
[8th rank poisoning spell: Slow Smog. Sprays poison that slows enemies within range.]
Even in the thick, toxic smog, Lee Hyeon didn’t even blink.
Even though he used a level 8 or higher magic, it didn’t have any effect on him.
“No one can disturb this moment when God has blessed me.”
Kuung!
“Crunch!”
Lee Hyun’s body was thrown backwards for a long time by the window.
Lee Hyeon followed me as I was thrown away and swung his spear repeatedly.
Boom! Boom! Kwung!
I was so busy blocking the window that I couldn’t find a way to counterattack and ended up on the defensive.
“Is this really the end?”
Lee Hyun was truly disappointed.
“Haa, haa.”
It’s difficult to continue like this.
Damage has already been accumulated by Zeus and Odin.
It was obvious that it wouldn’t last long in this state and would collapse.
“Hoo, hoo.”
I tried to write it as late as possible.
I held in my hands the newfound power of Zeus.
thunderbolt.
A technique that strengthens me by accepting the power of lightning.
A strengthening skill was cast on me with a time limit of 5 minutes.
Krrrr!
Lightning struck.
Phagec!
A hot electric current coursed through my body.
[I’m in a state of lightning strike.]
[All speeds increased by 500%, damage reduced by 50%, gain telescopic vision]
[Time remaining: 04:59]
Finish it as quickly as possible.
so.
“I’ll go first this time.”
I flew towards Lee Hyun, who was still glaring at me.
