Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 216
[Level Up with the Gods Episode 216]
* * *
Lee Rangjin took Yuwon on a tour around the heavens.
A person as high as a general personally guides the way. Naturally, it attracted the attention of those around us.
The evening grew dark.
“It’s too late.”
Lee Rang-jin, who was watching the setting sun, stopped the carriage with a wave of his hand.
“How can we even have dinner together? “Not in a small setting like when we met before, but properly this time.”
“Because we don’t really enjoy eating together.”
Yuwon waved his hand and refused.
Then, the subordinate of Lee Rangjin, who was driving the carriage, turned his head and glared at Yuwon.
“Where did you get so cocky….”
“That’s it.”
Lee Langjin waved his hand.
“If you want to eat, do it. If you don’t want to eat, don’t. “There’s nothing wrong with rejection.”
“sorry.”
“It wasn’t a coercion, it was just an offer, so why should I be sorry if I refused?”
Lee Rang-jin smiled exaggeratedly, perhaps to lighten the momentarily tense atmosphere, and continued.
“Then, if you feel like it, let’s have a drink together next time. “Whether you enter heaven or not.”
“…All right.”
“Have you decided on accommodation?”
“yes. “The guide decided it at first.”
“somewhere?”
“The path is not difficult, so we will find it separately. “I’m going to go see some more by myself.”
“okay?”
Lee Rangjin nodded.
“If that’s the case. I understand. “Then we’ll see you again tomorrow.”
“General.”
“huh?”
Lee Rang-jin turned his head.
Yuwon’s mind became complicated as he looked at him. Unintentionally, Yuwon was able to spend time with him for a day.
“Irangjingun? “That’s crazy.”
When discussing heaven, the person who spoke the most was, of course, Son Goku.
In particular, when talking about the Lee Rangjin Army, Son Goku raised his voice the most.
“If you look at that guy when he fights, he’s worse than that guy. “You’re so crazy?”
“Why do I trip and fall?”
“He’s not a muscle mass like that guy, so fighting is just…”
“Did you say he’s a muscle mass?”
Son Goku and Hercules used to growl often.
From what I heard, it seemed that the fighting style of the Irangjin Army was similar to that of Hercules.
“And if there is one target, it bites and never lets go. “Do you know how many years he’s been chasing me?”
“Do you have a persistent personality?”
Son Goku thought about Yuwon’s question for a moment and then answered.
“Rather than persistence, I would say it’s perfectionism.”
“Perfectionism?”
“Whatever you do, do it perfectly. “The fact that he doesn’t let go of the enemy he wants to catch also comes from that personality.”
Son Goku, who remembered the fight with Lee Rang-jin, shook his head with a tired face.
“He’s my enemy, but I’m tired of him.”
Although the conversation was short, Son Goku’s opinion of Lee Rang Jin-gun was not that bad.
For a guy who always ignores others and lives only for his own self-importance, it was generous for him to give such an evaluation.
Also, the evaluations of other people who knew Lee Rang-jin were not bad.
“He was a man of great loyalty.”
“The impression wasn’t bad.”
“He’s a great hard worker. “That’s all I know.”
“I should have fought once…”
Putting aside Asura, who had been raising his fighting spirit ever since the story of Lee Rang-jin came out, others judged Lee Rang-jin to be a strong warrior.
He was as upright as bamboo.
Therefore, even though it may be broken, it was never the type of person to be bent by anyone.
“Why did you call me?”
When Yuwon was silent for a moment, Lee Rangjin asked with a puzzled look.
Yuwon shook his head and said.
“Let’s drink it next time.”
Jeopuk-.
Yuwon got off the carriage, turned and walked away.
‘difficult.’
The impression of Lee Rang-jin, whom I quickly met by chance, was not that bad either.
But despite this, he was the general of heaven.
“Let’s make our own judgment about Lee Rangjin.”
“okay. “We can’t find an answer if we talk among ourselves.”
“The person who will be returning must make his own decisions and respond appropriately to the situation. more.”
An ambiguous conclusion.
And as concluded, Yuwon returned to the past using clockwork.
That’s why Yuwon had no choice but to keep thinking.
Should I kill Lee Rang-jin or take him alive?
The worries didn’t last long.
‘We’ll still have to wait and see.’
In any case, he couldn’t do anything about Lee Rangjin with his own abilities right now.
Moreover, it is impossible to judge what kind of person he is right now.
Yuwon gave up thinking about Lee Rangjin and landed in the middle of the heavens and looked around.
‘You’ve gone deep.’
Yuwon took out a hat from his inventory and put it on his head.
‘Pyeongcheon Daeseong….’
Son Goku’s sworn brother with the name Daeryeokwang.
Not much was known about him. Other than fighting a war with Heaven together with Son Goku, King Daeryeok did not do much.
However, despite this, the Great Power King was a high ranker with a ranking that could threaten the heavens.
The rankings didn’t lie.
There is probably a good reason for that ranking.
‘He’ll like it.’
After finding out that Pyeongcheon Daesung was alive.
Goku attacked Heaven to find him, but was eventually captured.
Later, a thousand years passed and Son Wukong, who finally broke the seal of the Five Elements Mountain on his own, moved to find Pyeongcheondaeseong again, but he was already at a point where he could no longer use his hands.
Yuwon remembered the route he had been given today.
‘The direction is…’
At the end of Yuwon’s gaze, he turned his head and saw an old, shabby building.
‘there.’
* * *
Jeopuk-.
A damp and musty smell stung my nose. The man with a long scar extending from his forehead to his right eye frowned.
Jin Hurak, a high-ranking prison guard in the heavenly world, muttered as he entered the prison.
“No matter how many times I come here, I can’t get used to it.”
Several years have already passed since I was appointed as the head of the prison guard after serving as a general in Heaven.
Although he was demoted because of his sins, he was not very pleased with this greeting.
“Fuck who am I? To rot in a place like this for ten years…”
Of course, ten years was not a very long time for a ranker.
Because it was the rankers who were guaranteed a life close to eternity unless a knife was put to their throat.
Moreover, Jin Hurak’s crime was to brutally murder dozens of his subordinates depending on his mood.
“Is the warden here?”
The guards under his command who discovered Jin Hu-rak bowed their heads and greeted him.
It was much later than the original work time, but no one scolded me for it.
“Just watch it.”
“no problem. “Nothing special happened.”
“okay. Probably not. “What could possibly be going on in this boring, boring place?”
A dark and quiet place with the only light coming from candles lit here and there.
The prisoners were so frightened of the guards’ possible behavior that they were careful not to even hear their breath.
‘It would be more fun if the criminals went crazy and ran wild…’
Jin Hurak glanced at the criminals locked in the cage.
‘That can’t be possible.’
In my heart, I wanted to spend time playing with sinners.
However, if you make a mistake, the demotion could last for a decade or more.
“Hey you guys.”
“yes!”
“Stop joking.”
“yes?”
“I mean Jae-rong, Jae-rong. Something fun. practice.”
Jin Hu-rak sat on the chair, half-leaned back, and waved his hands as if to say, “Go ahead.”
The guards hesitated, not knowing what to do. They were also rankers like Jin Hoo-rak, but unlike them, who were ordinary rankers, Jin Hoo-rak was a top ranker with a completely different ranking.
Even if you attack him with force, you don’t know whether you will be able to win, and in the worst case scenario, you might be summarily executed.
“Tsk. “You idiots.”
Jin Hu-rak clicked his tongue and waved his hands at the sight of the guards rigidly following his orders.
It was a congratulatory message.
“Quick everyone, turn it off. “Don’t be an eyesore and go down and clean.”
Only then did the guards, with their faces slightly straightened, bowed in greeting and left.
The surroundings became quiet again.
‘Anyway, it’s strange.’
It has already been four years since he became the warden here.
It wasn’t that long, but it was still enough time to know what was going on in the prison.
And during that time, Jin Hu-rak continued to solve the same questions.
‘What kind of person’s prison has this kind of power gathered in it?’
It was strange that he, a high ranker who was on the verge of becoming a high ranker, was the head guard.
But this was a clear demotion, and I could understand it because that was the punishment.
however.
Not long ago, I heard that his previous prison warden was also a similar ranker.
‘The head of the prison is a high ranker. This is a prison where the guards who manage the prison are all rankers…’
Jin Hoo-rak’s gaze turned to the prisoners in the prison.
‘It’s definitely strange.’
Prisoners cannot come out of their cages anyway.
There has never been a case where guards have had trouble controlling prisoners.
Even if I looked through the list of prisoners just in case, I couldn’t find any criminals that were that serious.
‘Then what is it? ‘Why do we need to invest this kind of power here?’
A question that continues to arise.
It was a time when I was just sitting there thinking about useless things.
Kiyi-.
The prison door opened.
For a brief moment, the moonlight from outside streamed inside.
Soon after.
thud-.
The prison door was closed once again.
“…?”
Jinhurak felt strange.
‘Did I leave the door open?’
I definitely remember coming in and locking the door.
Jin Hu-rak got up from his seat and approached the man who came inside.
“No one except administrators can enter here. “Go back.”
“…Jinhurak?”
The man recognized himself.
Is this a familiar face? Jinhurak stared at the man’s face.
It was definitely a face I had never seen before. Although his face was well known to the outside world, the look in the eyes of the man looking at him did not seem to be enough to simply recognize his face.
“Do you know me?”
“Are you the chief jailer?”
“however?”
“It’s much better.”
What is better?
Skaat-.
A familiar sound came from nearby.
The sound you hear when you cut through a hard bone with a knife. It was a sound that Jinhurak was also familiar with making.
however.
‘The direction the sound came from…’
Moving the body is also the flow of thought.
Everything felt unnatural and slow.
After a while, Jinhurak realized.
‘In my body….’
Damn!
A fountain of blood rose above. Blood was splattered on the low ceiling, but it was barely noticeable on the pitch black ceiling.
Keyit-.
Yuwon put his sword back and continued.
“It’s a good thing that the person you want to kill is there to die.”
Jin Hu-rak’s body lying on the floor.
He was one of the many rankers who fought alongside Yuwon after the Outer invasion.
The problem is that while he ran away to a noticeable extent during fights with the outer, he frequently quarreled with the inner rankers and caused a commotion.
And in the end, he even swung his sword at the rankers who were on the same team.
Those who are not needed must be cut out mercilessly.
To Yuwon, it was as important as saving someone else’s life.
‘It’s here.’
After cutting down Jinhurak, Yuwon looked down into the long basement leading down the stairs.
‘The Great Power King.’
prison.
There is a saying that if you want to hide a tree, hide in the forest.
Unlike Son Wukong, who was sealed in the Five Elements Mountain, the Great Power King was sealed in a prison in the heavenly world.
Of course, its form is different from other prisoners.
As long as I knew where he was sealed, finding it wasn’t that difficult.
‘Now it’s a race against time.’
How long will it take for the outside world to notice the situation here?
It will probably take as little as thirty minutes or as long as two hours.
If there’s a problem with the guards’ shifts, they’ll know there’s a problem in the prison.
‘The location is the lowest floor.’
Hwareuk-.
[‘Hwa-an’ lights the way.]
Yuwon’s eyes burned red.
‘It pierces through.’
