Episode 541 [….]
We definitely talked about that too.
But.
[Why is that important?]
Maybe it’s because it wasn’t the reaction I expected.
Baal clicked his tongue.
[la. Since you’re the kind of guy who can communicate at least like this, it’s reasonable to know what the other guys are like.]
[There’s plenty of time, so… speak in an
understandable way.] [It’s obvious that Lucifer will be defeated.]
[…?!! ]
Lucifer is defeated.
Who is that arrogant master of the first world?
[The guy started to question the existence of one God.]
Ah.
Is it that way?
The sun god shook his head.
[…That’s blasphemous.]
[Or rather, don’t you think that’s normal? The being you call God, the one God. How did he create this place and allow Voidrock access? [What is the reason for the existence of the heavenly world?]
This is something we all talked about once.
[…What did the other heavenly masters say?]
The corners of Baal’s mouth rose.
[There were some who went wild and said it was blasphemous, and there were also some who seemed quite interested. However, Lucifer was the only one who responded properly. Well, it seems to have reached Michael’s ears, so it will ultimately end in failure.]
Even if the three heavenly masters cling to him, Lucifer can easily subdue him.
However, if the target is the same archangel, the case is different.
[I expected from the beginning that it wouldn’t be resolved quickly.]
Maybe.
[His defeat could lead to unexpected changes.]
That sounds trivial.
I thought it didn’t sound like poetry.
Baal leaves.
Soon after, a rebellion broke out in the First Heavenly Realm.
* * *
The first heavenly forces following Lucifer attempted to take control of the Divine Beast, and the Absolutes led by Michael defended it as if they had been waiting.
Despite the unprecedented rebellion, the One God did not appear.
The only news that Michael had become the new 1st Heaven Master was unilaterally announced.
The owner of the heavenly world may change.
That fact gave many implications.
Several heavenly realms changed owners, but the 10 heavenly realms were an exception.
Although the level of absolutes is not inferior to that of other heavenly realms, no absolute person capable of surpassing Ra has been created for a long time.
From Ra’s perspective, boring times were repeated.
Baal, who had disappeared for a while, appeared not long after he created the absolute entity called Obelisk.
[It is the manufacture of the Absolute. You’re doing something interesting.]
[Didn’t you make the master of the heavenly world the archduke of the underworld? Lucifer, how are you, that idiot?]
It was a greeting mixed with a strange sarcasm.
[Don’t misunderstand. Also, his name is no longer Lucifer.]
[The name doesn’t really matter.]
[Don’t make any assertions. The power of a name has infinite possibilities.]
He was the same arrogant guy as ever.
[Say your business.]
[Why not create a new possibility?]
The image of a boring heavenly master was reflected in Baal’s enemy eyes.
[Lucifer. Oh, did I say Lucifer now? If you’re going to encourage a downfall like that guy, then I refuse.]
[That’s not the case. Rather than a clumsy Absolute who only accepts your divine power, let’s create someone who can handle both divine and magical power.] [
….]
Baal was able to accurately see Ra’s personality.
It didn’t take much time for the persuasion to work.
A thousand years. Five thousand years. 10,000 years.
How many thousands of years have passed?
Osiris and Jormungand were born.
[What can we do with these guys?]
[Didn’t I tell you? It’s just a possibility.]
Unlike himself, who was disappointed at not being able to create an absolute being on the level of a heavenly master, Baal seemed to have achieved something meaningful.
[Baal. What are your next plans?]
The man in front of me does not waste time.
just as expected.
[This body should become the king of the upper world.]
[….]
You are saying something absurd again.
Still, he didn’t deny it.
just.
[The heavenly masters will not remain silent.]
He was worried about the well-being of his long-time partner.
Baal just smiled, and soon the King of the Upper World, representing the ten heavenly realms, was born.
* * *
In the first place, there is no such thing as a ‘king’ in the upper world.
This is because, of course, the Elyos, who are members of the upper world, become beings called gods in the middle world when they reach the level of absolute beings.
There is power in names.
Those who were each created as a fragment of the one God or under its influence called themselves ‘gods’.
The number of heavenly masters who live in different time zones in an independent dimension is at least ten.
When he announced his intention to become the King of Sanggye, it sounded like nonsense.
[Should I say this is surprising?]
‘Ra’ laughed as he looked at the owners or assistant managers sitting at the ten tables.
[La~ Great sun god. What is so funny?]
Odin, the lord of the 7 heavens.
The greatest wizard in the upper world, who created the current position, asked slyly.
This is not a mockery; he is a guy with a unique personality.
However, just like his own power ‘disappearance’, the power of the ‘runes’ he handles is by no means funny.
‘It is a space that forcibly compresses existence. ‘That’s fun.’
Instead of answering, Ra read the flow of divine power forming the space.
‘Are there 50 runes used?’
Each one of them radiates divine power that can be said to be absolute.
In other words, the 50 Absolutes are being consumed for the meeting of ten heavenly masters.
‘I heard you have a lot of talent. ‘It’s more than I thought.’
No matter how many runes you used.
Creating a personal space that brings together celestial masters is something that deserves respect.
This is because no matter how much the power of existence is weakened in the form of the middle world, the masters of the heavenly world have no choice but to radiate the power of existence that can fill a universe alone.
The person who opened his mouth was Brahma, the lord of the fifth heaven, who was sipping from a bottle of wine alone.
[Are you asking because you don’t know, kid?]
Odin burst out into a cheerful laugh at the look in his eyes.
[Brahma~ Don’t look at me with such scary eyes. Because it makes me want to cut it out?]
[The kid is making a pretty plausible threat, isn’t it?]
[There are three other masters of the five heavenly worlds besides you, so you don’t need to worry about them, right?]
How dare you ignore the words of the heavenly world masters and only say what you have to say.
This is also something that cannot be done unless you are an equal heavenly master.
[you. Should I kill you?]
Just because Brahma said those words, Odin’s body was torn into pieces.
Several Heavenly Masters who were watching this burst into laughter.
[It’s a mess. Leave the joke at that.]
[Do not give orders.]
[It is not an order. Isn’t there a reason we gathered here? I can’t help but say that the space shakes when you get even the slightest bit excited.]
Although it is amazing, it is a space that is barely maintained.
There were signs of collapse just because Brahma revealed an infinitesimal amount of power.
[That’s correct~ After all, he is the sun god. Do you see something different in those eyes?]
Odin’s body, which had been torn into pieces, joined together and spoke.
That is also the power of runes.
[Everyone gathered here has the status of a Heavenly Master or equivalent representative. [Odin] Is it to support the new King of Upper World that made this situation such a hassle?] As
Ra asked calmly, the whole area became noisy.
[la. Come to think of it, you didn’t fight him separately, right?]
[Could it be that the handsome sun god cowered?]
[I heard there wasn’t much resistance from the 1st Heavenly Realm either?]
[Michael. What on earth is that guy thinking?]
[….]
The difference in strength between the heavenly realm masters is unclear, but the first heavenly realm is a symbolic place.
Therefore, there were many cases where the heavenly masters gave up to Baal with the thought of passing it on to Michael.
[If Lucifer had been there, it would have been a pretty interesting picture.]
[Anyway, if even Michael was convinced, there’s no need for us to make a fuss anymore, right?]
Several heavenly masters looked at Odin.
They are told to go around and tell the reason why they were summoned.
[That’s right. We have prepared this space to inform you of that. It won’t be much different from now.]
The 7th Heaven Master continued with an evil laugh.
[He stated that he would only take the nominal name of ‘King’ and would not be involved in the operation of the upper world.] Odin referred to
Baal as ‘he’.
This means that I will not treat you as a complete master.
[The King of Sanggye. Well, if we join forces, isn’t this a position we can take down at any time?]
Brahma spoke arrogantly and several heavenly masters agreed.
‘It’s hard to imagine these guys joining forces.’
That was Ra’s idea.
* * *
Ra suddenly burst into laughter as he recalled the long-ago past.
[What’s funny?]
The Elven asked with sharp eyes.
It was clear that the intention was to respond at any time if someone did something foolish.
[This was rude. It is because you show a different attitude from your idiotic masters.]
Raga added an explanation of how Baal took control of the Upper World.
[Baal did not crush all the heavens with his power.]
He actually revealed his power only in the 2nd to 9th heavens.
Immediately after, they competed for power in their own ways, no matter how big or small, and Baal was able to gain the recognition of the heavenly master.
[Why you?]
[I already knew that this guy’s power was greater than that of a heavenly master. I’m not the type to lose energy over useless things.]
“What about Michael? What did you talk about with him?”
Taehyun asked what had been a question all along.
[Who knows?]
“….”
I was at a loss for words at Ra’s attitude of accepting it without a big deal.
[Are you kidding?]
[Hahaha. Calm down, Fairy King.]
At Typhon’s words, the Elven gritted his teeth but calmed his excitement.
[Hmm.]
Ra watched the scene with amusement.
It is definitely a sight that cannot occur among the heavenly masters.
Is it just friendship?
Comrades in arms?
No, it may simply be a personality issue.
But even leaving that assumption aside, it was an action that could not have been shown without a certain level of trust.
“Typhon is right. It’s not too late to listen to the end and decide.”
Taehyun nodded as if to continue his explanation.
[I don’t know what they were talking about. What is certain is that there were no traces of battle in the first heaven.]
Thus, the King of the Upper World was born.
[The unique thing is that the demonic dragon brought by Baal took over the 9 heavens.]
The species that had dominated the 9 heavens for a long time became extinct so easily.
[Maybe that’s why the others also lost in moderation. If he had not accepted it, something like a turf war in the lower world would have occurred.]
In any case, Baal met the masters of the heavenly world alone and was recognized as the king of the upper world.
As time passed, many princes and kings were born in the lower world.
The distant years spun around.
Baal’s first order, which had not indicated any intention all along, was a tribal war.
Because it was not compulsory, some absolute beings participated in the race war on behalf of their heavenly masters.
A few absolutes.
Ha-gye’s power was so insignificant that he couldn’t even do that.
If it weren’t for the archdukes, the first racial war would have ended so easily.
If there’s one thing I missed.
After the battle, the presence of the lower world increased rapidly.
At the center.
There was a king of underworld.
