I’ll Be Taking A Break For Personal Reasons - Chapter 177
Rather, it was a pleasure to meet him.
But it is.
“Keugh! Escape! sibling!”
Ilho, whose arm had been ripped off, cried out at me.
– Kyaaaaaagh!
The very moment the owner of this dungeon appeared, it was shattered.
[ I am the first person to go to the dungeon (2) ]
It has been a week since I came to the ‘Remains of God of Harmony’ dungeon.
Ilho and I were embraced by half-naked women.
All of them are beauties with good looks and voluptuous bodies that rival most celebrities.
It was a situation that all men would envy, but there were some big problems.
The first is that the women’s lower bodies belonged to snakes with black scales.
-Whoa, to catch two males at once. Lucky for you.
The second is that they see us as food.
-Mmm, unlike your colleagues, your soft flesh looks delicious~.
The red-haired beauty wrapped around me praised my flesh, but I wasn’t very pleased.
-for a moment. Don’t forget to get the seeds before killing them. It’s a precious humanoid male caught after several decades.
– Ugh, this armor gets in the way. Honey~ First of all, why don’t you take off this and play hotly?
haha! The snake woman gasped and tried to forcefully remove the armor I was wearing.
No, no. Don’t do this!
At that time, Ilho, who was buried by the snake women, resounded with a loud shout.
“Geun Yoowook!”
– Now wait…! Aww!
simplicity and honesty! Cranky! Pooh!
A ghastly scream echoed with the sound of tearing and popping fabric.
Ilho, covered in blue blood, stomped his feet and approached the snake woman who was trying to take off my armor.
“These guys! Let go of my brother!”
– How dare you, my sister!
-I don’t need that bastard! Kill everyone, starting with that black guy!
Kyaaah!
The snake women opened their mouths wide open in an effort to swallow one person lightly, and attacked Ilho all at once.
and after a while
“Chuck! brother! How about snake meat for dinner tonight!”
They have turned into chunks of meat that were once snake women.
“Ilho, you don’t even have mercy on women…”
“Hmm? What did you just say?”
“Oh no.”
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
Ilho looked around me and asked worriedly.
“Yes, thanks to the armor you gave me.”
Although Ilho overpowered it lightly, the snake woman’s tail grip was stronger than an anaconda’s. But thanks to the armor that Ilho gave me, I didn’t have the slightest scratch.
“Chuck! Good luck! After all, you weren’t good at wearing armor!”
“…I know. It’s filthy heavy, though.”
The armor I am wearing right now is actually a soul armor that originally belonged to S-rank Hunter Gal Jung-hyeok.
I gave Ilho the soul armor I stole from Gal Junghyeok, but somehow I was wearing it now.
Ilho, who was worried about my weak muscles, forced me to put them on, but there was a guy who was very dissatisfied with this situation.
-Soul and body are the lowest G-class… Pilot aptitude… Zero… Originally impossible to equip… A
faint female voice came from the helmet I was wearing.
It was the AI of this soul armor, and it seemed to have a lot of dissatisfaction with me wearing it.
“Don’t do too much lazenka. I’ll wear it for a while and give it back to Ilho.”
-Don’t call me Lazenca… Garbage… otaku…
“Hey can! Be honest! Aren’t you an AI?”
I huffed and argued with him, but all I got was silence, whether it was because I was exhausted or if he didn’t want to talk to me anymore.
Woo! I’m really sad! As long as I find the Authority, I will take it off even if you don’t tell me to take it off!
This filthy heavy damn armor!
Apparently, in this dungeon, not only my god’s authority, but all other abilities seemed unavailable.
As evidence of that, this soul armor has become an ordinary armor that only occasionally utters a word or two.
Ilho was no exception to that.
Most of the blessings he gained while climbing the Tower of Heroes were also useless in this dungeon.
“huh? Why do you look like that?”
Ilho, who was wiping the blood off his body, tilted his head and looked at me.
“Haha, because I want to have great muscles.”
Oh my God, look at those rock-hard, ignorant muscles.
Even if Kaho was sealed, Ilho was not affected much because his bare body was at the level of a weapon.
In the dungeon, not only the snake woman but also other terrifying monsters came out without a break, but with Ilho it was just a high pass.
When I praised his muscles, Ilho chuckled.
“Don’t be so envious, brother, you’ll soon have great muscles like me. Now that the obstruction is gone, let’s continue our training!”
Creepy!
“Again again?”
“Of course! Just like eating three meals a day, you shouldn’t skip muscle training!”
Ilho flashed a dumbbell sword that had fallen nearby and handed it to me.
“Ilho, can’t I at least take off this armor? This is too heavy.”
Then Ilho’s face turned pale as if the world had collapsed.
“You mean you want to lose weight now? That’s killing the most trained muscles! How could you do such an inhuman act!”
Listening to Ilho’s angry cry, I felt like a bad guy trying to kill my muscles.
“I will. You can just do it…”
Then Ilho smiled contentedly as if he had never done that before and placed a dumbbell sword on my shoulder.
“Cuck!”
rattle!
My body trembled like an aspen tree at that ignorant weight.
“How many kilos is this? Why did it suddenly become so heavy!”
“I only weigh 100 kg. Brother, if you are a follower of the great and merciful One God, shouldn’t you weigh this much?”
crazy! Twice as many as in the morning!
“This is Ilho. It’s hard for me to hit this kind of weight now that my abilities are sealed. Couldn’t you cut it down a bit?”
Before the god’s power was sealed, I had easily done a thousand push-ups in a handstand position, but now I felt like I would die from this weight.
Ilho was stern at my words.
“The muscles that rely on this ability are the apostles! look at me sibling! They say that this strange dungeon seals my abilities, but I don’t care! This is the power of natural muscle!”
So, Ilho, you were a naturalist.
“Muscles made with blood, sweat and tears are never betrayed! This time, let’s sit down halfway and get up again with this dumbbell sword slung over our shoulders. This is a very good exercise for strengthening the muscles of the thighs as well as the whole body.”
“omg! Do you want to do barbell squats?”
Ilho clapped his hands.
“Oh barbell squats? It’s a short but catchy name. Now, since we are beginners, let’s try a thousand lightly.”
“A thousand! Are you going to kill me?”
“Chuck! Don’t worry! People don’t die just like that!”
That’s how the hellish muscle training started.
“Turn it off!”
“Now take a deep breath and feel as if you are pulling out all the muscles that are latent inside you! Brother, there are ten left! Be strong!”
“Hehe! hehe! Hey No. 1, didn’t you say there were ten left?”
“It’s my mood!”
Ilho firmly shook his head.
It’s not! I heard it!
“It’s number one. Please stop. I think I’m going to die…”
Ilho clicked his tongue as he looked at me as if he was pathetic.
“Tsk tsk, it’s like these weak muscles. Brother, aren’t you ashamed to have the same name as the only god? Alas, if it were our only god, he would have done this with just one finger, no fingertips!”
I am the only God! men and horses!
I was overcome with sadness for no reason. I gritted my teeth and gave strength to my whole body that was about to break.
“Profit! do! you can do it! Aaaaaa!”
“Oh, that’s right! Brother, be strong! Those flaky muscles are waiting for you!”
Ilho smiled and clenched his fists.
* * *
“Ugh…”
“Couldn’t you just do it? You really deserve the name of the only god.”
Il-ho, who had made me fill up a thousand times, no doubt more than that, laughed while carrying me, who had become a super-dead sword, on his shoulders.
Ilho, when you come to our world later, become a gym trainer. It seems to fit very well.
It was nice to meet Ilho, but it would be good for my muscular health to get out of here quickly.
Guy No. 1, if I ever go back, be prepared.
At that time, I will cut the sugar cube I gave you in half.
Ilho looked at me and grinned while I was dreaming of my timid revenge.
“Why why?”
You’re not conspiring to get me into exercise again, are you?
“It is so nice to be with you brother. I don’t know what to think when I say this, but it feels like being with my dead father. Isn’t it strange that I must be older too?”
Ilho said with vague eyes as if recalling the past.
“If I had been as strong then as I am now, I would not have lost my precious family. Brother, it may be painful now, but the trained muscles will surely save you and your loved ones in times of crisis. So please don’t resent me too much.”
Even though the god’s power was sealed, is it because Ilho is my follower?
Ilho’s memories and sincerity towards me were vividly conveyed in my head.
“Ilho….”
It might be strange for me to say this at such a young age, but I also consider Ilho like my own child.
Is this because I, as a writer, am writing the story of Ilho as a novel?
Beyond the simple relationship between a god and a believer, it feels like meeting the main character I created with all my heart and soul in real life.
“Ilho, actually, I’m the only one…”
It was the moment I was about to confess my identity to him.
Stand tall!
Ilho’s steps suddenly stopped like a stone statue.
“Who is…?”
Ilho’s voice trembled with anxiety.
And I also saw
There was no sign of anything, but a strange girl whose identity was unknown stood in our way.
A black-and-white balance scale was held in the girl’s hand, wearing an old dress stained with blood and her hair like burnt ash.
“Reveal your identity! girl!”
Ilho put me down and hurriedly pulled out the dumbbell sword.
Although she was a girl less than half his height, Ilho’s eyes were full of fighting spirit, as if she were facing the enemy of her life.
Swoop.
The girl raised her head.
Without even a pupil, he put me and Ilho dryly in his glass-like clear eyes, then opened his purple lips.
– Where there is light, there is darkness.
– Where there is life, there is death.
– Where there is creation, there is destruction, so everything was in harmony.
-But creation has disappeared and now only destruction remains and it has become a monster that devours everything in the world.
The balance scale, which had been balanced, began to tilt slowly in the black direction.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!
At the same time, a terribly resounding deafening cry.
“Ouch!”
“Keugh!”
Ilho and I knelt down, clutching our heads at the sound of a noise as if an awl were digging into our heads.
The girl dryly opened her lips again.
-Young god and warrior, I dare to show it to you who desecrated my tomb. The adversary beyond the balance that will drive you all to ruin.
Tsutsutsu!
Then my vision distorted and someone’s figure began to be reflected.
[God Tutorial]
-Young god and warrior, I dare to show it to you who have polluted my tomb. The adversary beyond the balance that will drive you all to ruin.
Adversary Beyond Libra?
What the hell is that…
flash!
In an instant, the balance the girl was holding shone dazzlingly, and a panorama of conflicting concepts unfolded in front of me.
Light and darkness, life and death, good and evil.
and the beginning and end.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
At the same time as a terrible explosion resounded, an infinite gray space with no end in sight spread before me.
Shih hee!
Kreurreung!
There were two beasts there.
No, their size is too overwhelming to call them simple beasts.
A monster resembling a snake and a hippopotamus so gigantic that it could swallow the Jamsil Stadium in one bite.
Its majesty is reminiscent of Leviathan and Behemoth, monsters that will overturn the world in the Bible.
‘Those things?’
Instinctively, I felt that those beasts were high-ranking demons who requested a festival for me.
The ruler of the abyssal swamp and the beast of strong food and deceit.
Could it be that those demons are the enemies who will destroy me?
Since they were the beings who were targeting me and held a festival of gods, there was a good chance of that.
The giant serpent, ‘The Ruler of the Abyssal Swamp’, gloomily stuck out its forked tongue.
