Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 240
[Level Up with God Episode 240]
* * *
There were three factors that determined the player’s strength.
Stats according to level.
A skill used using that stat.
And an item that strengthens both.
Many players fought over which of the three was most important.
But everyone knows those who have become rankers.
A truly skilled player will never neglect the mastery of his skills or neglect the stats that are the basis for them.
And no matter how precious an item was, ultimately protecting it was a skill in itself.
The power of the items varied greatly, as did the level of the player.
While some items are nothing more than slightly harder weapons or armor, other items can turn an ordinary player into a skilled player with power comparable to that of a ranker.
but.
King Uma, who had been imprisoned in heaven’s prison for a long time, was missing the very element called ‘item’.
That is why Prince Nata was able to gain the upper hand over King Uma.
But…
‘Hon Cheol-gon has returned to the hands of Pyeongcheon Daeseong.’
Now things are different.
Prince Nata’s gaze glanced upward.
The guy who threw the horn from above to the bottom.
‘Did you go looking for that?’
I was puzzled because he suddenly disappeared.
However, I thought that winning the battle here would mean nothing, but I never thought he would create such a variable.
‘Of course, I should have killed that guy first…’
“Where are you looking?”
A voice came from right in front of me.
Prince Nata opened his eyes and turned his head.
And that moment.
Whoops!
Due to the blunt impact, Prince Nata’s consciousness flew away and came back.
Quaaaaang-!
Quad clatter-.
The flying body flipped over the ground and went deep underground. Prince Nata was buried deep in the ground and looked up to see a faint light.
‘What happened…’
As I searched my memory, I remembered seeing King Uma’s Honcheolgon at the last moment.
just as expected.
“He covered his body with hideous weapons, but he is a miserable person…”
Tap tap-.
King Uma’s Honcheolgon, which was hitting his palm with a pitch-black club, rose into the sky.
“It’s ugly, Natasha.”
Buuung-.
What the heck!
The impact of the downward strike of the Honcheolgon crushed Prince Nata’s body as it fell into the ground.
Buuung-.
Kwang kwaang kwawaang-!
It wasn’t just once.
King Uma swung his sword fiercely as if he were going to end the fight in one go.
‘I have to get out… I have to get out…’
I felt like my body would explode and die if I stayed like this.
Gritting his teeth, Prince Nata strengthened his body and generated magical power.
Quauuut-!
Two huge slashes soaring into the sky.
P-it-.
A small scratch appeared on Uma King’s cheek.
At the same time, Prince Nata, who had been buried in the ground due to the power of Honcheolgon, came back to the surface.
* * *
Above the pitch black clouds.
Son Goku was half lying down, supporting his head with one hand, looking down at the fight between King Uma and Prince Nata.
“I think my brother will win.”
Eyes watching the fight with an excited expression.
Yuwon clicked his tongue and asked at Son Goku’s behavior.
“Are you not going to help?”
“You’ll win anyway even if it’s not me, so what are you going to do?”
“Isn’t Prince Nata’s known ranking higher?”
“Ranking is not necessarily in order of strength. If that’s the case, why fight? “Kneel in order of ranking.”
Kwaaaang-!
The Honcheolgon and the Chamyo Sword collide.
Son Goku grinned and looked at the Demon King, who was holding the Haunted Gun in his hand.
“I can’t imagine losing to someone who holds that thing in his hand.”
Tsk-!
The sound of the two people’s weapons clashing reached the dark sky. The battlefield had already formed a large circle around the two people, denying others access.
“So you don’t have to help. “Over there.”
“And you?”
Startle-.
Son Goku’s shoulders trembled slightly at Yuwon’s question.
It was a habit that came out every time something stabbed me.
“Have you found it yet?”
“…I’m looking for it.”
“Don’t look over there, hurry up.”
“Oh yeah.”
Son Goku, who had been grumbling and adding that it was just nagging, began to focus his eyes again.
Of course, the focus wasn’t just on Son Goku.
Yu-won, who rescued Hon Cheol-gon, also hurriedly took a look.
However, even though they had the same eyes, there was a stark difference between Son Goku and Yuwon’s eyes.
just as expected.
“…found.”
The corners of Goku’s mouth rose, and the image of an old man appeared in his eyes.
“Hold on tight.”
Mongeul-.
The cloud the two were riding on shook for a moment.
And that moment.
“If you fall, you’ll get hurt.”
Two hit!
The change in vision was instantaneous.
It felt like I was on a fast-paced amusement ride.
His mind moved before his body, as if he had left his heart where it had just been.
The celestial landscape passed by like a panorama.
A scenery that suddenly droops like paint accidentally spilled.
It was a while later that the scenery returned to its original state.
“long time no see?”
The back of Son Goku greeting someone.
Yuwon shook his head, quickly came to his senses, and looked beyond.
Wide and high Daejeon.
A long bright red dragon altar in the distance and a tall, golden, sparkling throne at the end of it.
And sitting on it is an old man full of wrinkles.
“What’s going on in Jim’s Daejeon?”
A kind voice that lets out a laugh.
Even though he already knew, Yuwon could not readily accept the fact that the old man was the ‘Jade Emperor’ he had always heard of.
The old man’s mask was that thick.
“Is it because you don’t know what’s going on?”
Jeopuk-.
Son Goku walked towards the Jade Emperor.
“Have you already forgotten? “What have you done to us?”
The guy who was clearly excited before coming here had a different reaction when he actually saw the face of the Jade Emperor.
“Even after thousands of years have passed, I still haven’t forgotten.”
Suoooo-.
It’s been a while.
I felt such an eerie magical power in Son Goku’s body.
They probably restrained themselves because Yuwon was in the same space, otherwise the building they were standing in would have been blown away in an instant.
“It’s been 2,000 years.”
The Jade Emperor stood up, holding out two fingers.
“Isn’t it time to forget about the past?”
Wiggle-.
Son Goku’s shoulders trembled slightly.
But even for a moment.
The corners of Son Goku’s mouth rose as he quickly calmed down.
“You haven’t changed from before to now.”
Lee Chae appeared in the Jade Emperor’s eyes.
Something was strange.
Was there something in his mind that changed while he was trapped in the Marble Mountains?
Or maybe it’s just that I’ve matured as time has passed.
Normally, the guy who would have been so excited and started running wild reacted much more calmly than before.
‘of course.’
However, Yuwon rather took Son Goku’s reaction for granted.
‘Because it’s already happened once.’
I’ve heard it before.
It is said that whenever the Jade Emperor fought with Son Goku, he always touched his painful area.
So, from the beginning of the fight, I had no choice but to get caught up in his flow and fight.
“A cunning, foxy old man.”
That was Son Goku’s evaluation of the Jade Emperor.
And actually, Yuwon seemed to know why Son Goku said that.
“Look at that.”
Sigh-.
Goku turned his head and asked with a grin on his face.
“Is it as I said?”
Yuwon nodded.
There was no room for disagreement on this.
As if he liked the answer, Son Goku turned his head towards the Jade Emperor again.
Before he knew it, he had hunched over and was holding the staff that supported his body like a weapon in his hand.
Jeopuk-.
Son Goku walked towards the Jade Emperor.
“Five of my brothers.”
Bokhae Daeseong, King Gyo-Ma (覆海大聖 蛟魔王).
King Horncheondaeseong Bungma (混天大聖 鵬魔王).
King Isandaeseong Sata (移山大聖 獅駝王).
Gungongdaeseong King Mihu (通風大聖 獼猴王).
King Wooyung of Gusindaeseong (驅神大聖 ???狨王).
They, who each used different titles and names, were subjugated in one day.
By the Jade Emperor right in front of you.
Just for the uncertain reason that they are people who could pose a threat to heaven in the future.
Kwaaaa-.
Magical power began to emanate from Son Goku’s body.
This is enough for Son Goku to have endured so much.
Yuwon distanced himself from Son Wukong and looked at the Jade Emperor.
“…I’ll send you to them this time too.”
* * *
Jade Emperor.
His presence in the tower had a special symbolism.
Ranked 10th.
A being with a ranking that can be counted with two hands among numerous high rankers.
One of the few rankers who can control the situation in the tower using their own strength and authority.
If he surpassed him, he would finally be ranked in the top ten.
But despite this, among the countless high rankers, none surpassed the Jade Emperor.
It was because of the power of heaven and the power of the Jade Emperor that he possessed.
but.
Right now, the Jade Emperor’s palace was collapsing.
Kurrrrrr-.
Yuwon looked down at the scene while riding Geunduun.
Inside a building with a collapsing red roof.
In the hazy smoke, Son Goku and the Jade Emperor were fighting.
“The first one is King Uma. The second is Son Goku. And what happens next?”
While trying to find a way to win the battle against heaven.
Son Goku answered Yuwon’s question.
“There is no need for another time.”
“You say you don’t need it?”
“I have an older brother. “What more do you need?”
At those words, the meeting froze for a moment.
Nothing else is needed.
Just one Yeouibong is enough.
Son Goku said so.
And at the time, Yuwon regarded Son Goku’s words as bravado or overconfidence, as always.
“You will win once out of a hundred times. In other words, you will lose 99 times out of 100.”
“I fought the Jade Emperor twice.”
Two Heavenly Wars.
Both times, Goku reached the Jade Emperor.
“Both times I fought while not in good condition. Still, I didn’t gain anything.”
Yuwon’s eyes lit up at those words.
Two fights.
Goku becomes stronger with every opponent he fights. However, Yuwon could not easily imagine Son Goku losing to an opponent he fought twice.
Moreover, no matter how much he was Son Goku, I didn’t think he would show too much confidence in a situation like this.
“Trust me.”
phut-.
Goku hit his chest.
“If only I could find the Jade Emperor…”
Puzzle-.
Goku gritted his teeth and spit out the next words.
“Because I will kill that bastard.”
I believed it.
Because Son Goku was one of the few rankers Yuwon trusted.
It may be about using his brain, but when it comes to fighting, Son Goku has never let him down.
He always fought one step ahead of himself and always won.
And it was the same this time too.
‘The guy over there right now is not Son Goku, who fought the Jade Emperor twice.’
That belief was much stronger than before.
‘After losing two battles, I fought the Jade Emperor again and won…’
Too!
Yeouibong Peak soars into the sky.
The corners of Yuwon’s mouth curled up as he looked at the Jade Emperor hanging at the tip of the peak.
‘He is the one who went through the war with Outer with me.’
