I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 91

#91. Pandora’s Box (1)

[Ep.1002 Prometheus’ Prophecy.]

In his previous life, defeating Asmodeus was his greatest achievement.

Is it because I have achieved such great achievements?

This life was extremely boring compared to my previous life.

A life that developed strength normally, fought enemies normally, and then died normally.

However, the reason I am writing down these boring records is because I know that someday, when discover these records, a tremendous synergy will be unleashed.

I will write it down.

Even in this life, I couldn’t kill .

However, we were able to find a crucial hint from Prometheus, the god of prophecy.

The prophecy I heard from him was something I had never heard anywhere else in my over 1,000 lives.

Although his body will now crumble and the memories of his past life will disappear, I hope that his prophecy engraved in my ear will never be forgotten.

okay. If possible, my body in the next life.

Pandora. Remember about him in the prophecy.

– Yu Damdeok’s 1002nd record –

“…What is this, the end?”

Damdeok, who was reading with concentration, made an absurd expression.

.

I think there were three important keywords, but there was no substantive explanation.

“No, so what is the content of the prophecy…? “You said that was the most important thing, but why didn’t you write anything down?”

The cutting technique was truly a work of art.

I scrolled up and down several times, but that was really the end of the 1002nd record.

‘This is outrageous.’

What kind of record do you leave behind like this?

I felt like I had left the bathroom without cleaning up the poop.

‘Hmm, they couldn’t kill it….’

It was strange.

Even though it was just a word written on a system hologram, the word was filled with an unknown sense of fear.

‘Anyway, I couldn’t kill even in my 1002nd life.’

Doesn’t that mean that you couldn’t kill in all your previous lives?

‘Is it like the final boss?’

If so, he would most likely be a god who exerts enormous influence in the war of gods.

Many gods passed through my mind.

Zeus of Greek mythology?

Odin of Norse mythology?

Ra in Egyptian mythology?

Even if we only think of the highest gods, there were too many gods to count.

Damdeok shook his head.

‘It will be impossible to reason right now.’

Even if he could find out its identity, there was no way he could kill it with his current strength.

Damdeok’s expression became quite serious.

‘First, let’s calmly collect the 12 guardians. If you wander around, you’ll find more fragments of memories.’

‘But who is Pandora in the last sentence? Are you talking about the Pandora from mythology?

‘To find that out, I think I’ll have to find out what Prometheus’s prophecy is

… ‘

The numbers were fluctuating.

‘ha. driving me crazy. I thought it might be of some help since it was a memory from my past life…

but somehow I feel like my head hurts even more than when I didn’t know about my past life.

“Ugh, it’s a goal.”

That was when Damdeok held his head with both arms and lowered his head.

Tuk-tuk.

The white cloud next to him struck Damdeok’s side.

Damdeok answered without raising his head.

“wait for a sec. “I’m thinking about it.”

But the white clouds hit the side harder as if to show off.

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

“Ah, why are you like this, man!”

Damdeok Baekgureum raised his head while making a small sound, and his gaze was directed straight ahead.

A small moan came out of Damdeok’s mouth as he turned his head to follow the gaze.

– Wow!

The eagle, which had already eaten all of its liver, was gliding in the sky, and Prometheus, covered in red blood, was glaring at Damdeok in silence.

* * *

[Read.]

Hearing Prometheus’ dry words, Damdeok carefully opened the letter.

Whioooooo.

As soon as I took out the letter, the envelope was blown away by the fierce wind blowing between the cliffs! and flew away.

“Ah…”

[Okay, just read it.]

Damdeok secretly exchanged glances with Baekgureum and opened the letter.

It was a letter from Zeus, written in arrogant scrawl.

“…purple. Descendants of the promiscuous titans. Even though you have committed an unforgivable sin and are tied up there, you still have not stopped resenting me. As the god of all things, he should have patience rather than resentment and reflection rather than regret, so why did you…

[Stop.]

Prometheus turned his head with a deep frown.

It was a gesture that no one wanted to hear.

Damdeok looked at the letter and Prometheus alternately with troubled eyes.

“…There is still some content left.”

Actually, not a little, but a lot remains.

Even by rough estimate, there seem to be about 30 lines left.

But Prometheus was adamant.

[it’s okay. Because it’s obvious at first glance. Anyway, it means reflecting on the past and sincerely apologizing to yourself. And as an apology, I am asking you to reveal all the prophecies I know.]

“That is… um…”

Damdeok quickly skimmed through the contents behind the letter and quietly put down the letter.

It was all true.

There was an awkward silence for a moment.

Now that I finished my last delivery, I should have left feeling relaxed, but for some reason, my legs felt like they were stuck in the ground and I couldn’t move them.

“I’m bleeding a lot.”

Damdeok’s gaze was focused on only one place.

Red blood was constantly flowing from Prometheus’ chest.

“Can I help you?”

It was half sincere and half selfish.

The coexistence of the compassion that humans should feel in such situations and the selfishness of wanting to hear Prometheus’ prophecy.

But he was not a soft opponent.

[Don’t do anything useless. Because it regenerates automatically at night.]

Despite his blunt tone, Damdeok could not easily take his steps.

There was definitely a reason why I wanted to hear the prophecy, but more than that, I

thought, ‘What kind of person can just pass by when blood is spilled like that right in front of their eyes?’

Isn’t it natural for humans to feel sorry for something?

Moreover, Prometheus was naked and had nothing on.

To be exact, she was wearing a silk cloth underneath instead of panties… but anyway, she was almost naked.

I couldn’t believe having my liver pecked out by an eagle with my bare body on a cliff with the cold wind blowing like this.

‘No matter how wrong it is, this is too cruel.’

The image of Prometheus, helpless and unable to do anything with his bound body, was overlapped with his own past as a untalented person.

[…Hey kid. Stop showing foolish sympathy. When you’re done with work, please leave. Since when was Hermes’ post office such an idle workplace?]

Damdeok responded bluntly to Prometheus’s sarcasm.

“Today’s quota is already over. “Whatever I do from now on is my freedom.”

The corners of Prometheus’ mouth quirked up.

[Don’t be funny, kid. I have to report to Hermes that today’s delivery was successfully completed. Who are you trying to fool on this subject?]

Sparks flew between the two for a moment.

Baekgureum swallowed his saliva and gently tugged on the end of Damdeok’s clothes.

But it was Damdeok who glared at Prometheus regardless.

“…I’m not at the bottom anymore.”

[under. Are you speaking informally to me just now?]

“No. No way. I just corrected it. “Because I am not a minor god.”

[….]

Prometheus quietly looked at Damdeok with a face that asked, “What is this?”

Damdeok confidently met his gaze.

“why? “Do you think you’ll be able to ask for some help now?”

[…He’s a bully. How on earth are you going to help me? As I said just now, when it comes to treating wounds, my regenerative power is much better than your shallow power…!]

Prometheus, who was about to pour out sharp words, stopped.

This is because Damdeok, who was glaring at him with defiant eyes, suddenly brushed off the snow on the ground with his feet and flopped down next to him.

[…What are you doing now?]

“I asked how you would help me.”

[Is sitting next to you helping? How do you think this is helpful?]

“At least it’s not cold when we’re together. It’s not even appropriate. “I will stay with you until your wounds heal.”

Prometheus was speechless for a moment.

It’s not that I’m impressed, it’s just ridiculous.

[…Are you a crazy god?]

“No way.”

[Then what are we going to do now? Do you know what it means to sit next to me?] I

was in a situation where I had nothing to say even though I was stamped with evil fur by Zeus.

It has been said that the arrogance of young gods these days is sky-high. Is this what they are talking about?

There was no such feeling of sudden change.

To make matters worse, the young human who had been watching with a dissatisfied face from earlier also trudged forward as if resigned.

“Oh really, what sin did I commit in my past life…”

Shake it off!

The warmth of the human child sitting right next to Damdeok reached his skin.

The person he thought so fondly of. Because they loved humans, they gave them fire, the exclusive property of the gods, and in return, they were bound here for thousands of years, but they were a race of humans who never once resented them.

Such a human child was now sitting close to him.

“Oh really bro! “When are you going to come down?”

“Wait a minute, man. With temperament. Anyway, you were whining earlier that it was hard. “Let’s get some rest.”

“ha. A real old man….”

Prometheus, who was listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly felt warmth in his eyes.

[Brother… This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone call God ‘brother’…]

Honestly, it was a culture shock.

Baekgureum, who was grumbling, jerked! I looked up.

“Then why don’t you call me older brother? That person’s name is… Prome… Ugh, it’s difficult. Anyway, Brother Eagle, stop giving up. Because that guy is absolutely stubborn. “I’m going to be sitting here for at least an hour now.”

Prometheus’ mouth opened slightly at the white cloud’s outspokenness.

[Brother Eagle…? No way, that title will be given to me now…]

Baekgureum nodded resolutely.

“Of course it’s my brother’s nickname. I saw him being pecked at by an eagle earlier, so I gave him a delicious nickname… Ah! “Why are you hitting me?”

“Speak sparingly. “You simple ignorance.”

“Grrr…!”

“Are you a dog? “Wake up, man!”

“Ugh! “Stop hitting me!”

Prometheus quietly looked at the two muttering creatures.

For over 2,000 years, the only people who visited this place were his younger brother Epimetheus, Zeus who stopped by to threaten him, and several mindless gods who came to make mocking provocations.

The last time was 150 years ago.

‘It’s been a while. In many ways…’

Before he knew it, his wariness towards Damdeok and Baekgureum was fading away.

Whioooooo.

Prometheus, who was quietly listening to the sound of the bitter wind, opened his mouth.

[you. What is your name?]

“This is Yu Dam-deok.”

[It’s Yu Dam-deok… But why did you bring a human? Even though it is a world where gods and humans coexist, it is a dangerous place for humans to come to.]

White Cloud opened its mouth as if it were absurd to hear those words.

“Huh? Are you ignoring me now? Even after all this, I am a Korean swordsman… “Eup!”

Damdeok hurriedly covered the mouth of Baekgureum, who was furious.

“This guy is my priest. “There are still many things I lack, so we go around and practice together.”

[is it. Young people these days… or rather, young gods live as brothers and sisters with their priests. It’s good. The world has changed so much.]

“Haha. Yes.”

Prometheus’ eyes were vaguely filled with old memories.

From the conversations I had with my brother Epimetheus long ago when he was creating humans, to the day he was recognized as the highest god by Zeus, to the day he first welcomed his priest, to the day the grand temple was built.

[I don’t know if she’s okay….]

Prometheus’s voice had suddenly become softer.

Damdeok did not miss that golden opportunity.

“By her, are you by any chance referring to Pandora?”

Prometheus’ gaze shifted frighteningly at Damdeok’s words.

[How do you know about Pandora?]
