Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 188

[Level Up with the Gods Episode 188]

* * *

“Ugh….”

“Uuuuuuup!”

Crowds of people spread out in the alley.

Some people are clutching their broken legs, while others are pouring out vomit.

Some of them had their eyes turned white as if they had completely lost their minds.

“Was that bastard a ranker?”

“Unlucky. “Anyway…”

Those who were in relatively good condition quickly took out bandages and herbs from their inventory and tended to their wounds.

Fortunately, there seemed to be no deaths.

It was a blessing in disguise.

Although it was clearly an overwhelming difference, the damage was barely this much.

At that time, one of the party members who had bandaged the wound opened his mouth with a white face.

“I… I remembered that bastard’s face.”

“face? “Are you a famous ranker?”

“no. “I’m not a ranker.”

“then?”

After hesitating for a moment, he answered, recalling a memory from a long time ago.

“It’s Kim Yu-won.”

“Kim Yu-won? “Are you the winner of the last Murim War?”

Winner of the Moorim War.

The strongest player.

And the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.

All three were modifiers attached to Kim Yu-won.

And to that extent, even though he was a player on the lower floor, the players on the upper floor seemed to recognize his skills.

of course.

“No matter what, it’s still like that… Is it to this extent?”

Perhaps Kim Yu-won already has ranker-level skills.

It was a rumor that was spreading publicly.

Jecheon Daeseong already had a record of winning against a ranker who was the test proctor on the 50th floor, and similar cases could often be found among the top high rankers.

Even Kim Yu-won broke all records of high rankers, so it was probably a natural assumption.

But guesses are just guesses.

It was inevitable that I could not feel the skill I had seen with my own eyes.

“If the ship behind you is a member of the Heavenly Demon God Church, you won’t be able to touch it easily…”

Another member of the group asked as they saw their colleague tying up a bandage and his eyes shining.

“You’re greedy after all, right?”

The man, whose words trailed off and his eyes sparkled, nodded.

Of course, I couldn’t help but become greedy.

Samsingi.

A treasure from the past that even high rankers would rush to with their eyes lit up.

As soon as I got my hands on it, becoming a ranker with the power of the item on my back was like winning. Also, once you become a ranker, the power of the Three Gods will become even bigger wings.

“That bastard definitely said he was looking for the Three Gods.”

“Kim Yu-won would have better information than most rankers.”

“Is this the authentic copy obtained from the Heavenly Demon Church?”

“If I had that…”

The conversation soon became focused on the three gods.

Someone was already talking dreamily, as if the Samsingi were theirs.

But even for a moment.

“What about us?”

The conversation turned cold as if cold water had been poured on someone’s words.

Colleagues spread out on the floor.

This was all the result of one person, Kim Yu-won.

After such a short silence.

“Even if it’s difficult for us alone…”

one person opened his mouth in a solemn voice.

“There are plenty of places to target the three gods.”

* * *

“12 points. “Breakfast is separate.”

The innkeeper handed me a change of pajamas and a key with my room number written on it. Yuwon entered the lodgings and looked around the room.

‘Is this the most expensive room in this neighborhood?’

The most expensive room is 12 points.

I knew that the prices on the 44th floor were cheap, but it was surprising.

A fairly neat facility with an area of about 30 pyeong. For this price, accommodation of this quality was practically nothing.

The fact that prices were low in places with poor security and poor location was no different from the world where Yuwon lived.

Slurp-.

Yuwon sat down on the sofa. I didn’t feel very comfortable.

There was no immediate danger, but this neighborhood was a place where you never knew when and where a knife could come in.

‘At this point, there is only one Samshingi that has been released. ‘There are two things the Three Ghosts are chasing.’

Sigh-.

Yuwon put his hand into his inventory.

A cheap-looking knife was held in my hand. As I took out the sword with its rough red scabbard, I felt the air in the room turn cold.

‘And here’s one.’

Kusanagi’s sword.

It was a type of demon sword and was a relic of Susanoo, who was being chased by the Three Demons.

‘My eyes will roll if the three ghosts find out.’

The octagonal jade held by Amaterasu.

Amaterasu, who knew the power of the Three Gods, searched throughout the tower to find Susanoo’s relics and other Three Gods.

The same goes for Tsukuyomi, another one of the three demons.

Perhaps if they found out that Yuwon had Kusanagi’s sword, the two would go to any lengths to find Yuwon.

“Baat ba-!”

At that time, Maple, which had been sleeping in Yuwon’s arms, suddenly popped her head in.

A guy who shows interest in Kusanagi’s sword.

“no.”

Swish-.

Yuwon quickly moved Kusanagi’s sword away from the leaves.

“Now, whenever I see you, I’m scared because I don’t know what to eat.”

“Abba bababa!”

“It’s no use trying.”

Kusanagi’s sword was an important item.

As it was a ghost sword, it was not a very compatible item with Yuwon, but even if it was not necessarily used, it had a place to be used.

“Baa-.”

Maple’s cheeks swelled.

It looks like it’s tightly curved.

but.

There was no way a child who had delicious snacks taken away right in front of him would be able to accept it calmly.

Of course it’s a shame.

Yuwon burst into laughter as he looked at Maple’s swollen cheeks.

It seemed like he needed to be comforted.

“Where I lived, there was something called the Marshmallow Experiment.”

“Baa?”

Maple tilted her head as if asking what that was.

Yuwon continued.

“I left you some delicious snacks and said if you held on without eating until I got back from work, I would give you two.”

It was a pretty famous experiment.

An experiment in which two snacks were given as a reward for waiting.

And as a result, it was a story that those who succeeded in waiting would succeed later.

Since it was only an experiment, Yuwon did not necessarily believe in the theory.

However, the experiment and the current situation fit perfectly.

“So just wait a moment.”

Yuwon put Kusanagi’s sword, which he had taken out for a moment, into his inventory and said.

“Then I’ll give you a cookie that’s much bigger than this.”

* * *

Yuwon spent time on the 44th floor.

Seungtap let go of his hand for a moment. After throwing the bait, it was now time to wait for the bite.

“Did you hear that? “I heard Kim Yu-won is looking for Samsingi.”

“Samshingi? Why are you doing that here?”

“I guess I heard some information. “How average is that guy?”

“This rotten town has such a thing?”

“Is this the beginning of a treasure hunt?”

Yuwon, who came out of the street, opened his ears wide and listened to the rumors.

A conversation between players who were drinking at a bar. Yuwon, who was soothing his boredom with a glass of beer and ham, felt eyes on him.

‘Here we go again.’

It had been ten days since I stayed on the 44th floor.

The rumor spread quickly, and Yuwon continued to search for the Three Gods.

Treasure hunt.

The story from the other table was exactly right.

“I just want to ask you one thing about how this has already happened.”

widely-.

Yuwon put down the beer he was drinking on the table.

Magic power suddenly filled the bar.

I could feel the gaze and hostility towards Yuwon from four of the six tables.

“I heard the Three Gods are here. Does anyone know anything?”

“We’d like to ask that.”

Grumble-.

One person stood up.

That was the beginning.

Chaang Chang-!

Players take out their weapons and prepare their skills.

Among them was one ranker.

“Where did you hear that it was here?”

“You’re saying you don’t know.”

“however?”

“Then I have nothing to say.”

Yuwon lifted his glass of wine that had been put down for a moment.

“Go ahead and have a drink. Have fun.”

It wasn’t a very pleasant place.

Yuwon drank alone in this place, with the spear knife right in front of him.

The situation seemed so relaxed that the rapid movement around me stopped.

But even for a moment.

“Catch it first!”

A riot broke out in the bar.

Wow!

Kwasik-!

There was a hole in the ceiling.

Yuwon started dancing, starting with the player whose head was stuck on the ceiling.

Kwajik- puheook-!

Buuuuung-.

Yuwon grabbed the opponent’s body and swung it like a weapon. Inside a narrow bar, a person’s body turned into a quite threatening weapon.

Wow!

Players falling down in droves in an instant.

In it, a sharp spear flew towards Yuwon.

Kwasik-!

Whoa!

The floor of the bar caved in, along with the tables. Yuwon moved to avoid the spear and looked at the owner of the spear.

Bright yellow hair pulled up tightly with wax.

Although he had a gangster-like face, the magic radiating around him was real.

‘Are you a ranker?’

We were just a ragtag group for a while, and now it seemed like a proper guy had finally appeared.

The size of fish caught on bait has increased.

The response was slower than expected, but it wasn’t a bad situation.

The ranker who retrieved the spear opened his mouth as he saw what Yuwon had done in a moment.

“Your skills aren’t as bad as I heard.”

“That’s cheeky.”

The guy’s forehead twitches at one unyielding word.

“You still don’t know what’s up here…”

A face distorted with anger.

I thought he wasn’t a very patient person.

The power that goes into the hand holding the spear.

Now that he had encountered the ranker, Yuwon was thinking about something else.

‘Kill this guy alive.’

If you keep it alive, more fish will probably follow.

In that case, it is right to keep him alive.

Although I didn’t really feel like it.

‘It doesn’t look like anything at all.’

With a face that looks like a sheepish expression.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a guy I don’t like for no reason.

Boom-!

Quad deud deuk-!

The tip of the swung spear split the wall of the tavern. The building shook and others retreated far away to get out of the window’s range.

“What are you doing sitting still!”

“thought.”

At Yuwon’s answer, the wrinkles on Ranker’s forehead deepened.

“thought?”

“What should I do with you…”

The worries didn’t last long.

The spear pierced the air a few times. Yuwon turned his head and the corners of his mouth went up.

“decided.”

“what?”

Clud-.

Magical energy flowed through Yuwon’s arms.

[The power of a giant resides in your arms.]

Partially transformed into a giant.

It was a method I had rarely used since I learned how to transform my entire body into a giant.

But for now, this was enough.

Sigh-.

The spear stopped high in the air.

The ranker’s eyes widened at the window that didn’t budge.

‘What kind of power does this guy have…’

Buung-.

My vision became dark.

Something came closer and filled my vision.

That was the end.

Cheok-!

My vision is spinning and my consciousness is fading away. At the last moment, he realized that this was his last time.

dump-.

The hall became quiet at the sight of the ranker lying on the floor.

That too for a while.

Jeopuk-.

The players gathered at the bar began to back away one by one.

“Eh erai!”

“Let’s go together!”

“That’s why I shouldn’t come!”

The players who were in good health chose to run away. They decided that they had no chance of winning anymore since the ranker who came with them had collapsed.

Yuwon did not chase them.

Yuwon, who was standing alone in an instant, looked at the remains of the broken table.

“The place is so cluttered…”

Yuwon turned his head and looked at the man who was already inside the bar.

“Shall we move it and talk about it?”

“There’s no need to do that.”

The man whose eyes met shook his head.

A middle-aged man with short, sporting black hair and deep wrinkles.

He entered the bar while the fight was taking place and watched it for a moment.

‘Has this guy finally been caught?’

This is the biggest fish on the 44th floor, biting the bait spread by Yuwon.

‘Amaterasu.’

A large fish, almost like a whale, shook Yuwon’s fishing rod.
