395. The god of birth (1)
The god of pride.
Probably one of the ancient deities belonging to the pantheon
.
‘I don’t really want to pay attention to the apostle who serves the god of arrogance.’
and.
“you.”
That means one thing.
“Are you going to stop talking nonsense about that?”
There was no need for this side to listen to Lyen’s nonsense until the end.
「The god of transcendence and death issues a final warning to an unlikely apostle.
」 ]
In an instant, I spit out a voice mixed with divine power and divine interference, implicitly revealing my strength to Ryan.
However, fearing that this might be discovered by the birth god hiding in the world of Scandia, he poured his divinity into only one Ryen.
It caused divinity pressure with delicate control added so that divinity would not be revealed to the deity of birth as much as possible.
───!
But…
“…Kuh! worms! I am! The seventh servant of one of the ancient deities, the god of pride! Even if I reveal my divinity, I think I’ll get scared—”
Is it because this side controlled the power so that the divinity would not be discovered by the deity of birth, so the situation was less understood?
Before he knew it, Leyen was startled, but then became enraged and shouted proudly.
Only then did I abandon the idea of lightly persuading others based on divinity.
I just used an easier method of persuasion than using the Divinity.
Aww!
“Kuk-!?”
In the blink of an eye, I stomp lightly and land in front of Lyen’s nose, grabbing his face.
Kwaaaak-.
“whatever?”
As it was, I spoke in a calm tone as if I was not interested.
“I knew for sure that one of the ancient deities, the god of pride, was your master.”
It was only then that Raien opened his eyes and shouted loudly with a twisted emotion on his lips.
“Kuhhh! okay…!! The god of pride is one of the ancient deities! Unlike all fours, it is an ancient deity that has existed for hundreds of years! like you! Nothing compares to him—”
but for a while.
“take no interest.”
“…under?”
“You know at least that you are an apostle serving an ancient deity, the god of pride or something.”
“…”
I finished my words in a cold tone as I watched Raien’s eyes harden.
“That doesn’t mean you’re an ancient deity, right?”
It was simple.
Even if Ryen is an apostle serving one of the ancient deities, that in itself is nothing.
If that’s the case, seeing this side that has reached the state of ancient divinity, you’re trying to build a one-sided top-down relationship.
I can’t tolerate something like that.
“Don’t you dare act condescending to me, the Hound of the Tower…!!”
But…
For some reason, Lyen didn’t understand what this side said, and even raised the blue divinity and became enraged.
Not even that.
Based on the overwhelming divine control ability, this side adjusted the level of divinity so as not to be noticed by the ancient god, but Lyen did not.
Raien’s divinity flows out and scatters uncontrolled energy outside.
But it didn’t matter.
「Divine < words > are used.」
「You can consume divine power to exert verbal influence on the real world.」 「
However, a lot of holy power is consumed for words that interfere with the laws of the world.」
《 Go back. ]
After all, just by mixing the divine < Remorse > with the divine < Eonryung >, he was able to completely control the opponent’s divinity.
Kwazijik-!
In an instant, Rayen’s divine power was crushed and returned from the outside to the inside.
In fact, since the divinity was restrained so that it could no longer be moved by the divinity < remorse >, it could no longer reveal its strength.
Recognizing this, Raien’s face turned white and frightened, then he parted his lips as if he couldn’t understand.
“What the hell is this!”
Only. Kwaaaak-!
Just like that, I squeezed her face harder as if I wouldn’t allow her words.
“Ouch…!!”
and.
“Didn’t the Pantheon say that they were wary of me saying that I might be fooling around?”
Only then did I say, looking at Ryan’s frightened eyes as if giving a one-sided notice.
“Go and tell them you don’t have to worry about that.”
“…Kuh! go go? As a pantheon? I can’t do that without you—”
“—No. It would be better to just return to the pantheon at this point.”
You don’t need to be persuaded.
“That way, I can avoid causing misfortune by killing the Apostle of the Ancient Godhead, right?”
Before I knew it, Lyen’s face had turned infinitely pale, like prey in front of a predator.
***
In an instant, Raien quickly returned to the pantheon without adding a word.
「Achievement ‘Adjuster of Terror’ has been achieved.」
「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.」
「The level of reward obtained from the achievement increases.」
「Agility +4 It rises.”
“It’s annoying.”
At that, I sighed as I stared blankly at the place where Lyen had disappeared.
Perhaps, there was a possibility that Rayen, an apostle sent by the god of pride, did not come here as an agent of the pantheon.
In fact, even the pantheon side knows that this side has reached the level of an ancient deity, but there is no way that common sense would send an apostle like that to be a supervisor.
Then there was only one guess.
‘A god of arrogance.’
I almost guessed why it was like this.
Perhaps one of the ancient deities, the god of arrogance, added an apostle to test his tendency.
But that doesn’t mean the situation is better than for the Pantheon side to be wary of this side.
The god of pride has enough status to be called one of the ancient gods, and the opinion of the pantheon seems to be strongly influenced by the ancient gods.
Which means it’s not a good situation, at least on this side.
“…”
But.
“There is no need to worry right now.”
It’s not something to think about right now.
As for this, many ancient deities were watching with interest.
To put it bluntly, there is a high possibility that a number of ancient deities will show their liking for me and subside the backlash before the pantheonists do their tricks.
‘Rather than that, what needs to be done comes first.’
As it was, I slightly closed my eyes and quietly extended my divinity and magical energy to the earth.
If I hadn’t dealt with a bad guy like Bondi Lyen, I would have spent time searching, but now I can’t waste more time, so I need to use a slightly risky search method.
In addition to the ability to hide the presence gained while climbing the tower, the overwhelming sense gained from becoming an ancient deity hides divinity and magical powers undetected.
And how long did you do that?
Before I knew it, I was able to almost perfectly grasp the composition of the world itself, called Scandia, based on divinity and magical power.
Simply put.
‘I think I know roughly.’
Only then did I open my slightly closed eyes, touch the corners of my mouth, and conclude.
“The world is heading towards its end.”
Scandia.
The world, which would have been rich in vitality until the birth god appeared, is coming to an end.
In fact, every time a certain amount of time passed, the life force of the world itself called Scandia was being absorbed into one place.
“…”
That means one thing.
‘It must be that the god of birth has no intention of staying in Scandia for long.’
I didn’t have much time.
Diremoa, who is said to be the god of birth, seemed to be intending to absorb and destroy every life force in this Scandian world.
Perhaps, in the near future, Scandia’s nature will be transformed into something far from peaceful.
After that, it was certain that even the god of birth would not stay here.
‘Is the god of birth thinking of moving after draining all of the life force from the world of Scandia itself?’
Then there is no time to procrastinate anymore.
As it was, I leaped as if pushing off the ground and headed for the center where Scandia’s life force was absorbed.
In fact, there was no confusion because they perfectly grasped all of Scandia based on divinity and magical powers, except where it was believed that there was an ancient deity.
Chak-.
‘That’s correct.’
and.
“…”
Before I knew it, I landed lightly on the ground and saw the place where the ancient deity was supposed to be.
‘Is it a barrier made of divinity?’
However…
As if this was the residence of an ancient deity, in the center of Scandia there was a green divinity like a huge dome.
If you can’t pass through that barrier made of divinity, the answer would be to break it.
However, despite this, I didn’t carelessly break the green barrier made of divinity and looked at it blankly.
There is absolutely no need for this to be discovered right away.
‘Still, it’s worth a try.’
next moment.
「The transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning > is activated.」
「From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s divine operation will have the divine effect of < Spirit Unbreakable >.
」 You can become equal with your opponent.」
「※If you cannot withstand the accumulated burden from the rise in rank, the power of < Spirit Indomitability > may stop.」 「From
now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon will receive the divine effect of < Autonomy Control >. .”
「*It becomes possible to freely adjust and handle the spirit that you possess.」
In an instant, I activated one of the divine powers while wearing the < Spirit Tuning > of the transcendence myth.
「Use divine < protection >」
「Consumes divine power to give out a protection
that excludes external divinities once .」 」
Originally, the divinity < Divine Protection > has the effect of excluding external divinities.
If it can be partially adjusted based on the transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning >, this side should be able to pass through the barrier made of divinity as well.
It was a better option than mindlessly destroying the obstacles in front of me, so I reached out to the green barrier made of divinity, hoping that this method would work.
And…
Tung-.
‘It was a bit risky.’
succeded.
Even if it is a sacred barrier created by an ancient deity, it can be destroyed if it is the effect of the divine authority supported by the < Spirit Tuning > of the transcendence myth.
That’s pretty easy too.
It was the moment when I realized a new fact about him and tried to explore the place beyond the divine barrier with a little pleasure.
[ what the. ]
Suddenly, as soon as I stepped over the divine barrier, I heard a divine voice in my ears.
‘I didn’t expect to be discovered right away.’
Soon, the moment I clicked my tongue and was about to spit out my murderous intent.
[I thought there would still be invitees left. ]
For some reason, I stopped my actions when I noticed that there was no intent to kill or hostility in the other person’s voice.
‘Inviter?’
Only then did I turn my head slowly and see a man with a languid impression standing at the source of the sound.
Did he misunderstand this as an ‘inviter’ who could come here?
For some reason, the man with a languid impression wearing that divinity on the outside let out a deep sigh and spat out annoyance as if he was dumbfounded.
There were no enemies there.
[ you. ]
realized.
[Are you one of the deities invited by the god of birth, like me? ]
In fact, I was being treated the same as that man with a languid impression who reveals divinity that is equivalent to that official godhead.
[ under-. Seriously, this guy is also one of the colleagues who will work together under the god of birth. It’s annoying. Anyway, if you’re here for the first time, hurry up and follow me. ]
Not even that.
‘One of the companions to be with under the god of birth?’
That man who appeared suddenly and appeared to be a formal godhead was spitting out new information.
But even so, I pretended to be relaxed and didn’t show panic.
It seemed that it was possible to understand the situation.
To that, I simply replied to the other person’s words.
[Could there be more deities here besides me? ]
[ Really me. Isn’t that natural? One of the ancient deities, the god of birth, said he would accept them as a faction. He said he would share the holy relics he stole from the pantheon. ]
[Ah… ]
[Tsk tsk. Except for a fool like you, everyone is waiting for the god of birth in the banquet hall, right? He is the only ancient deity who will accept us, who were stamped by the pantheon, into one faction. ]
[ …. ]
That means one thing.
[I see…]
It’s nothing else…
「The god of transcendence and death feels deep greed and her eyes twinkle
. 」
It seemed that there was a lot of experience to obtain divinity before hunting.
