258. Earth (1)
As soon as the ascension reached 100%, the level of divinity rose like crazy.
[This is…]
It feels like being equal to the many deities I saw in the giant tree labyrinth.
I could definitely notice.
Now, he is growing so that he can use the power of a god without having to use deification.
In the blink of an eye, the divine power in the heart increased like a runaway, bringing about a sense of omnipotence.
[It’s amazing. ]
Even it is not only the Godhead who grows.
―Is the level of the soul also rising according to the level of divinity…?
It was felt.
It’s not just the divine power that dwells in the heart…
Something deep and deep is also rising to a high place.
It’s like taking out your brain and letting it shine in the sunlight.
I enjoyed the feeling while entrusting myself to the drowsiness pouring in without knowing why.
―It looks like the size of the bowl is increasing to catch the overflowing water…
And…
―Is this the process of becoming a god?
While doing so, another system message appeared in my field of vision.
「Myth < Possibility of Transcendence > satisfies the conditions and is automatically activated.」
It’s nothing else…
「※Ascension has reached 100%, and some of the myth’s effects are distorted.」
Myth < Transcendence's Possibility > This ascension reached 100% and was automatically activated.
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon is given the effect of < Cause and Effect Attunement >」
「Since she won against an unwinnable enemy, the causal rate is partially adjusted.」
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon is not significantly bound by the restrictions of the causal law, unlike normal divine powers. 」
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon gains the effect of < God Rise >.」
「Since she won against an unwinnable enemy, her divinity level rises significantly.」
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon ascends to heaven and gradually acquires the powers as a god. 」
The concentration of divinity gradually deepened, and then it shone brilliantly while being dyed in golden light.
Divine power was dyed by the divinity < transcendence >.
Unlike when he became an apostle or when he obtained the position of the god of death, he did not lose his mind.
But I knew nonetheless.
That soon I will get a new position similar to < Grim Reaper >.
And…
「Time ends.」
「The divine authority ‘Apotheosis’ is disabled and cannot be reused for 8 hours.」
My thoughts soon became a reality.
―You…
just—.
「Contender Han Seong-yoon’s official name has been confirmed as < God of Transcendence >.」 「
From now on, it is possible to exist as a god without using deification.
」 」
Now, it is possible to obtain divinity without having to use something like deification.
[ …. ]
The feeling that everything is clearer.
The feeling of making oneself mistaken that one has become the light.
At that, I smiled the deepest smile and clenched my fists.
「The Transcendental God has become aware of its own existence.」
Finally…
「※The existence power of the Transcendental God spreads across all dimensions.」
「※The Divinities of all dimensions know the existence of the Transcendental God It becomes.」
「※ Information about the transcendent god is now starting to be controlled by the law of causation.」
It has become a proper divinity.
「※The Tower of Trials is starting to pay a lot of attention to the god of transcendence.」
That is also very special.
***
Hell.
In this sinful world where numerous demons were gathered, all dimensions were connected.
It is a place where all who commit sins, regardless of which dimension, come to this place after death, and even some deities reside there.
—Hell is the home of all malicious beings.
That is why those who know about hell sometimes make comments like this.
However, there were not that many people who liked Hell.
It was worth it.
The beings here do not trust anyone and do not wish for peace.
So, in this hell, all I could get was meaningless killing.
So, even the deities with divinity related to demons did not like being in hell.
Because in hell the deities can’t get anything.
But…
“The god of battle is loud and shouts at the battlefield of Hell.”
[Fight! Kill! Hate, envy, and despise each other! If you show me your worth by doing so, I’ll take you guys…! ]
The god of battle was different.
He is the one who gains divinity and faith against those who fell in battle in the first place.
That’s why hell was the best place to work for him.
You can get a lot of divinity and faith just by encouraging fighting.
Of course, inciting a direct fight is an act that doesn’t fit the status of a god
.
‘It’s rotten…. but I still haven’t recovered the divine power I paid for the top…’
It was understandable.
This is because the God of Battle tried to deal with the tower’s challenger and failed miserably.
One of the laws that the Tower of Trials laid down on all deities, the ‘Law of Cause and Effect’, took away a lot from him.
‘Challenger Han Seong-yoon. I must have violated the law of cause and effect to deal with him. shit. Because of that kind of bug…’
The ordeal of the tower and the fight in the giant tree’s labyrinth inflicted indelible scars on his divinity.
The root of the problem was that he wrote < Advent > to kill Han Seong-yoon, who was only a mortal.
In order for a divinity to interfere
with a mortal, a cause must be established .
‘Maybe I’ll have to reap divinity and faith like this randomly in hell for about 100 years…’
Then the god of battle narrowed his forehead and gnashed his teeth.
[ Han Seong-yoon…! ]
Challenger Sungyoon Han.
Even if it’s a mere tower challenger, even if it’s a fake, it’s an existence that killed his own apostle and extorted the divinity.
If it hadn’t been for that, he wouldn’t have had to roll so ugly in hell.
He must have enjoyed the filthy struggle, killing bug-like mortals to his heart’s content on the battlefield.
As if it had been that way for hundreds of years.
But all of that went wrong because of one mortal named Han Seong-yoon.
[This wouldn’t have happened if that insignificant mortal bastard hadn’t installed it without knowing the subject…! ]
So the god of battle felt a hatred for the unworthy mortal.
If given a chance to do anything, he would tear the mortal to pieces and kill him…
Now the god of battle lacks the divinity or faith to be held as a mortgage.
Therefore, it was his reality that he was forced to grind in hell like this.
[ ha. At this point, I’d rather that mortal bastard attain divine status. Then he wouldn’t be protected by the law of causality either. ]
The god of battle clicked his tongue and spoke delusionally.
[If that happens, I should be able to visit the dimension where it lives…]
But…
[…Huh? ]
The repetition of such a miserable life did not last very long.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-!
Suddenly, a current of golden light flowed from the reddish-red sky of Hell.
It is also very brilliant.
At that, the god of battle stopped grinding his teeth and turned his gaze to the heavens.
Then he frowned and studied the golden stream for a moment.
[This is…]
nothing else…
[Has the godhead been created again? ]
That signaled the appearance of a new deity, which happens every few hundred years.
The god of battle is a deity that has lived for thousands of years.
So I had no choice but to know what it was.
‘It seems that a formal divinity with the realm of divinity has appeared.’
This could be said to be a signal announcing the appearance of a deity who had gained a new name.
< Battle > < Proof > < Darkness > etc…
Each time a god who controls a certain divinity appears, such a signal appears.
That too, at the same time in all dimensions where the Godhead exists.
It was interesting, but nothing too unusual.
After all, the appearance of a formal godhead only happens once every few hundred years.
By the way…
[I don’t know why, but the color of the air flow is familiar…? ]
The god of battle narrowed his eyes when he saw the golden stream that appeared in the hell’s sky.
It was worth it.
Each deity has a color appropriate to the divinity that governs it.
It may overlap some, but not so easily.
‘Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a golden divinity in my life…’
And.
[ ah. ]
Thanks to that, it was sometimes possible to identify the opponent as a signal announcing the appearance of this new deity.
[I remembered. ]
The god of battle could recall a divinity he had seen before.
Even among the challengers from the tower, the existence possessed a foreign power.
The face of a challenger who resisted the godhead despite being only mortal and drew a lot of attention from the ancient gods flashes in his mind.
And…
[Challenger Han Seong-yoon. ]
The corner of the god of battle’s mouth went up as if it were tearing up, creating a grotesque laugh.
***
「Congratulations, you have broken through the 21st floor of the Tower of Trials.」
「As a breakthrough reward, ‘Swordsman’s Scabbard (SS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.
」 You have acquired.」
「You have acquired ‘20000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.」 「
As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Hourglass dyed in black (A+)’ will be sent to your inventory.」 「
As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Traces of Divinity ( A+)’ will be sent to your inventory.」
「Go to the waiting room.」 As
soon as I became a proper godhead, a system message appeared blindingly.
[ …Ah, come to think of it, the conditions for clearing the ordeal were met. ]
It’s nothing else…
With the death of Karnar Sagsis, the 21st floor ordeal’s clear conditions were satisfied and the ordeal ended.
I never thought I would be rewarded like this as soon as I was promoted to official godhood.
I forgot about the thought that I had reached 100% ascension.
「Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward] is activated.」
So, I took a quick look at the system message and immediately used the exclusive authority.
「The level of reward increases with Exclusive Authority #D-0007 [Increase Reward].」
「21st floor breakthrough reward ‘Swordsman’s Sheath (SS-)’ (SSS-)’.」
「As an additional breakthrough reward on the 21st floor, ‘Black-dyed hourglass (A+)’ will be enhanced to ‘Black-and-white hourglass (S+)’.」 「As an additional breakthrough reward on the 21st
floor ‘Traces of divinity (A+)’ are enhanced with ‘Traces of an ancient deity (S+)’.」
Seeing that all the grades of the rewards went up one by one, I really liked it.
Even if he officially became a < God of Transcendence > and was recognized as a god, the rewards could not be ignored.
It was worth it.
From what I’ve seen so far, even the gods are not free from the power of skills or power items.
‘I got a lot from the 21st floor reward.’
You’ll know what all of these are after you return to the waiting room, but…
Still, I couldn’t help but feel very good because I got items with at least S+ rank.
But are there still rewards to be gained?
Another system message quickly surfaced.
「It has been detected that the basis for creating a myth has been sufficiently established.」
「The authority ‘sacred power’ is strongly activated.」
It’s nothing else…
「Calculating a myth based on the actual result and Shinto belief.」
Another myth after a long time The moment to get it had arrived.
「Shinhwa < The Nemesis of Everything > has been completed.」
「Shinhwa < The Enemy of Everything > accumulates in divine power
. 」
Your holy power greatly interferes with the power of all beings.」 「
※Those who do not have will cannot resist your holy power.
」 “When < Chaos > is activated, the enemy’s negative emotions are extracted as faith.” ”
※
As the enemy’s negative emotions grow, the efficiency of faith extraction also increases.
” That’s it.
