– Volume 16, Chapter 6
381. The library of all things on the 78th floor (6)
“…what does that mean?”
Einzhar did not understand Taesan’s words.
“There is no such way. I read all the books here and asked the manager of the labyrinth how to do it.”
It wasn’t that he was standing still. I tried everything I could to restore the goddess.
But all to no avail.
It was the state of the goddess now that even the same transcendental person could not touch it.
However, Taesan continued to speak.
“There is a way that only I can do.”
“…You’re too lazy.”
Einzhar’s face distorted. Just as he was about to say something in anger, power surged from Taishan’s body.
it was black
Einzhar, who reflexively drew his sword,
shot the sword at Taesan’s nape.
“Oops!”
Realizing belatedly that the opponent was Taesan, he stopped just barely, but his eyes were shaking greatly.
“What about that power?”
The power of the old god that swallowed the goddess.
It was flowing from Taishan.
Taishan put divinity in it. Black and divine were mixed, showing the power of gray.
Kiyiing!
“Ah…
Einzhar spoke out.
The power Taesan showed now was similar to that of a goddess.
Taesan turned off the boundary line.
“Will you believe me now?”
Einzhar stared blankly at Mt. Taesan without answering.
* * *
Taishan took a little time.
A few minutes later, Einzhar returned to Taesan with a calm face.
He asked Taesan why he had such power. Taesan answered the question.
About Earth.
About the Gosin who invaded Earth.
and of the faith he receives.
As the story progressed, exclamation and astonishment
continued to flow. Taesan finished the story.
“I have the power of the Old God. And it also has divinity. By combining the two powers, another power can be dealt with.”
“…her.”
Einzhar let out a laugh.
“You… have been through more than I thought.”
“Do you believe that there are possibilities in my power?”
“okay.”
Einzhar nodded. The power Taesan showed was similar to that of a goddess. However, it was much more stable and under Taishan’s control.
In other words, it meant that the state of the goddess could also be controlled in some way.
I still don’t know how, but the possibility was enough. Taesan opened her mouth.
“Then let me ask you a question. Why did the goddess become like that?”
After a moment of silence, Einzhar opened his mouth.
“First, I should properly explain myself.”
Einzhar grabbed the golden sword. A strong power emanates from him and covers the space.
“I am Einzhar. I am a believer of the great beloved goddess Levinenov and a confidant who stands by his side.”
Feeling the power that covered the space, Taesan was convinced. Einzhar is
a monster among monsters that even Taesan cannot defeat.
Einzhar looked up at the ceiling with hazy eyes.
“Our world was a very peaceful world protected by Master Levinenov. They were full of love and did not hide it from each other. Those who love each other have a bond, and those who are not loved have been loved by someone else. It was all thanks to Levinenov’s grace. But… at some point it all got twisted.”
“Gosin.”
Einzhar nodded.
“It was a situation similar to your world. Gosins invaded our world.”
The goddess, the owner of the planet, pushed Gosin away.
Einzhar also helped the goddess by her side, crushing each of the monsters.
It wasn’t too difficult at first. The goddess is also a transcendent, and Einzhar is the strongest among the immortals. Even if a monster at the level of an apostle came down, he was able to defeat it.
But the time was a problem.
The invasion of the Gods is not over.
The world became more and more devastated, and life rotted away. It was impossible to drive out the gods without damage. Their world was slowly being eaten away and dying.
“You wouldn’t have known if there was help from other gods, but at the time, it was time for the old gods to invade the world on a large scale. Even the gods couldn’t afford it. As a result, our world was gradually destroyed.”
Then Levinenov’s divinity was also shaken.
Levinenov is a planetary god. When the planet perishes, the goddess also perishes.
“I pushed the old gods out with Master Levinenov. But even that was slowly reaching its limits. I was going to sacrifice myself to save only Levinenov… but rather, he tried to save me.”
Einzhar said with a melancholy face.
“In a world of gray he spoke to me. There is no meaning to a god who has lost the world he must protect. He said
that it would be natural for him to collapse along with this world. But as for me, I’m telling you to forget everything and live your life.”
“But you didn’t.”
“Do you think there is meaning in life for a believer who has lost the god he is supposed to serve?”
Einzhar shook his head.
“Since I was forced out by Levinenov, I have been everywhere looking for him. But I couldn’t find any trace of the goddess anywhere. You may think it’s gone, but his power still remains in me.
It meant that he was still in this world. So I desperately searched for traces and clues.”
Einzhar sighed and exhaled.
“After that, you will know. I came to know that the Goddess was in the Labyrinth and came here. And thanks to you, I was able to see Mr. Levinenov again.”
The story is over. Einzhar held Taesan’s hand with a desperate face.
“So please, please. i’ll give you my all Please, please…
Save Levy Nenov.”
Taesan nodded.
“May I ask how exactly you intend to save the Goddess?”
“well. I can’t say for sure yet. But I have one way in mind.”
His boundary line was a mixture of divinity and black, just like the current goddess.
The difference was that he could control it and the goddess couldn’t.
If so, use Boundary to make the Corruption that swallowed the Goddess her own.
Hearing the explanation, Einzhar’s eyes lit up.
“If that’s the case… it might be possible.”
The reason Einzhar and the gods
couldn’t do anything about Levinenov was that her contamination was the kind of power they couldn’t interfere with.
However, Taesan was already dealing with the power of borderline himself. It wasn’t impossible if it was such a mountain.
“Right now it is difficult.”
It is true that the state of the goddess is similar to the boundary line, but she could not intervene now. As much as the status of the goddess itself was damaged, various conditions were required.
If the contamination was forcibly erased, the goddess could not endure and could perish
.
“…the goddess was resisting the contamination of the old god.”
It was completely uncontaminated. Einzhar affirmed with a gloomy face.
“Perhaps because I am alive. My faith will both keep him and afflict him.”
Einzhar had surpassed mortality. If it was the faith of such a person, it had a high status in itself. Because of that, there was a high possibility
that the goddess who had lost the world was still holding on without collapsing .
then.
After thinking for a moment, Taesan opened his mouth.
“Is there any way to bring the goddess back to her sense of self and stability?”
Not being able to deal with the pollution was a big problem with the Goddess.
In other words, if the goddess’ condition stabilized even a little, it might be possible to touch it somehow.
“Then is it possible?”
“I don’t know yet. It is only speculation
.”
But there is a possibility.
“Wait a minute.”
Einzhar thought quietly. After a while he murmured slowly.
“The 84th floor… I think you can get there if you go through the hidden road there.”
“Where?”
“To the world of the goddess who was eaten by the old god. But, as you know, it is very dangerous there.”
Einzhar bit his lip. “
It’s a place where you can’t survive unless you have the qualifications and strength .
i can’t leave Mr. Levinenov suffers periodically. If I, the only believer, do not stand by you and protect you, there will be problems.”
Taesan had to solve it. After thinking for a while, Einzhar decided.
“Taesan. Are you okay?”
Einzhar raised his sword.
“I’d really appreciate it if you could help me, but I can’t kill you with it. I know you are strong. But you won’t know your true strength until you strike your sword .
So let’s compete with you and check your strength before making a decision.”
“great.”
Taesan also had no reason to refuse.
Einzhar grinned and shouted.
“Jorge!”
After a while, Jorge appeared with an annoyed face.
“What is it?”
“I’ll be dueling with him for a while, so I’d like you to spread the veil.”
“Annoying things.”
Jorge clicked his tongue and waved his hand. The bookshelf moved away, expanding the space for the two of them.
Einzhar pulled out his sword.
“Seriously, do it with all your might. I will also move with the mindset of defeating you.”
“I will.”
Taesan activated all buff skills. In an instant, his rank and stats reached a high level.
Einzhar smiled and stamped his feet
.
At that moment, an explosion exploded.
His sword aimed at Taesan’s neck.
What is contained in it is strength.
It contained much stronger power than the fist that Einzhar had wielded as a test when he first met him.
Taesan instinctively raised the sword. With a roar, Taesan’s body was pushed away.
“Ho! Block it without a hitch! Great!”
Einzhar exclaimed and
leaped.
A golden sword was swung.
It was a random sword attack without any form, but it was enough to threaten Taesan’s life.
Taesan gritted it.
this is immortal Among them, the power of beings at the top.
Kwaaang!
Sword and sword collided. The blades collided, and an inconceivable roar erupted continuously.
Taesan was pushed back, but he was still blocking it.
Einzhar could not hide his admiration.
No matter how moderately he dealt with him, to block his attacks this far. It was something that even adventurers in the late 80s couldn’t do.
“Let’s stop this too.”
Einzhar’s whole body exploded with light. The light eventually gathered on the sword and became a huge golden sword.
Einzhar swung his sword.
Taesan, who was trying to block it, realized instinctively. That was the sincerity of an immortal. It was a blow that the mortal could never stop.
Taishan could only respond to that attack with a perimeter.
But no more.
[You have activated the eternal faith.]
The space opens and the faith connects.
A sense of omnipotence dominates Taishan’s entire body. Taesan bounced his sword. With the collision, Einzhar’s body was pushed back a bit.
I blocked the immortal attack with my mortal body.
Einzhar’s eyes widened.
“…the faith of the whole world?”
He knew what power Taesan had now.
Einzhar was taken aback for a moment, but soon smiled.
“If it were you… it might be possible.”
he stamped his feet
Jorge, who was watching from the outside, clicked his tongue and
kept the curtain tighter. It was a clash of forces that would break the curtain if you were not careful.
“What a monster.”
Words I didn’t know who they were targeting were scattered in the air.
Taesan proved his strength by fighting Einzhar. Einzhar was very satisfied.
“If it were you, you could survive there.”
Einzhar handed over the quest to Taesan.
[Starting a sub-quest.]
[Einzhar wants to save his broken goddess Levinenov. Falling into deep despair and slowly giving up, he regained a ray of hope after seeing your power.] [
Move to the world of the goddess who was destroyed by the gods and bring the holy relic that contains her power.]
[Condition: The state of a goddess [Reward
:
Einzhar can give you many things and the blessing of the goddess.]
“There is nothing urgent. The Goddess’s condition is slowly deteriorating… but if I’m by her side, she’ll be able to hold on. Since I’m in the position to ask, I can’t rush you.”
As Einzhar had said, Taesan did not leave right away.
He stayed on the 78th floor and continued dueling with Einzhar.
The opponent is the strongest among the immortals. Thanks to this,
I was able to raise the proficiency of various combat skills, including Airak weapon skills.
I haven’t been able to find all the secret rooms yet. It was inevitable that it would take a long time as I was searching through the vast library of all things, relying on my vague memories.
Taishan continued to dig up knowledge and found secret rooms one by one.
He slowly organized all the things he had obtained and made them his own. Since there were so many things to be gained, it took quite a while to sort them out.
By offering the rewards he obtained as tribute, he also obtained magic and black magic.
He did not forget to duel with Einzhar. Whenever he had time to spare, he would duel with him and gain combat experience.
and after a month.
A quest window appeared in front of him.
[Start of special quest]
[Return to Earth.]
Level up with skills.
