Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 257
[Level Up with God Episode 257]
* * *
Boom-.
Heavy footsteps shake the ground.
The giants did not move.
They were also quite high level players and rankers.
I instinctively felt that the other person was not normal. Moreover, there was no giant in this tower whose name I did not know.
Hercules, the giant slayer.
To the giants, it was a more fearsome name than Jecheon Daeseong.
“Hercules….”
“Why is Hercules here?”
Among them were some giants who had experienced Gigantomachia in the past.
A high ranker who slaughtered numerous giants in a long war and mastered the skill called giantification.
The natural enemy of giants.
His presence was nothing short of a disaster for the giants.
“Are you okay?”
Hercules held out his hand towards the staggering Son Goku.
Legs shaking as if they would collapse at any moment.
Goku looked at the hand and frowned.
“I can’t give up.”
“I don’t think it’s time to show off your pride.”
Hercules looked around.
Even though they say they are scared of their presence right now, they never know when they will come to their senses and attack.
Since Hercules’ original purpose was to help Son Goku get out of this situation, if Son Goku refuses his help, it will inevitably be a pain in the ass.
“You said you came here as a favor, right?”
Hercules nodded to Son Goku’s question.
Goku asked with confidence.
“Is it that guy Kim Yoo-won?”
“okay.”
“You idiot. “Insurance until the end…”
Then, with that thought in mind, strength came back to my legs.
It seemed like they had some time to take a breather while fighting non-stop.
[‘Breathing method’ is activated.]
[Breathing becomes stable.]
[Stamina is restored.]
[Magic power is restored.]
Magical power rising.
Although it was a little bit, vitality began to return to my body.
This is enough to prepare for a fight.
“Then again…”
“Stay out for a moment.”
thud-.
Hercules’ steps turned toward the giants.
“These guys are my specialty.”
“…Oh, that’s right.”
Normally, Son Goku would have made a fuss, saying he didn’t need any help.
But now things were a little different.
‘I hate to admit it, but I was very tired.’
Goku glanced at the back of Hercules.
‘When fighting a giant, there’s no one like him.’
Sending Hercules here was an excellent choice.
When it comes to dealing with giants, the current Hercules will be superior to the current one.
“No matter how much I have pride, I can’t just play and eat.”
Hercules, who was about to raise his fist, turned his head when he heard Son Goku’s words.
“With that physical condition, it’s not much help….”
Swish-.
Something flew in front of Hercules.
Hercules’ arm, which reflexively accepted it, shook.
Heavy weight.
It was so heavy that Hercules lost it for a moment.
Kujik-!
The ground on which Hercules was standing could not bear the weight and collapsed slightly.
Hercules, who confirmed the identity of the object in his hand, looked at Son Goku.
“What is this?”
“It’s Yeouibong.”
Yeouibong.
It was an item that was like a symbol of Jecheon Daeseong and an item known to only be able to handle Jecheon Daeseong.
“You may not be used to handling the weight yet, but you should still be able to swing it.”
With a relaxed expression, Son Goku supported his head with his clasped hands.
“I’ll lend you that. “Use it well.”
The original Hercules used a club made from the root of Yggdrasil.
Hercules, who rose to the top 20 with only his bare fists and without any items, saw his ranking rise explosively the moment he grabbed the right item in his hand.
Boom-.
Hercules swung the baton in his hand.
It was heavy.
However, it was not a weight that could not be wielded.
“It’s okay.”
Light feelings.
However, a deep smile is drawn on the lips.
It was a smile of confidence.
Cluck, cluck, cluck-.
Tendons sprouted from Hercules’ arms.
“Grow up, Yeoui.”
Blah blah blah-.
Kujik-!
He instinctively realized how to use the female baton.
Yeouibong Peak stretches up to the sky.
Hercules grabbed it with both hands and swung it at the giants with all his might.
Buuuuuung-.
Tuhwaak-!
The bodies of the giants are torn apart where Yeouibong passes.
Hercules, who cleared the path in an instant, lifted the huge female baton onto his shoulder and said.
“It’s worth using.”
* * *
Ugh-.
The player kit rang.
Yuwon glanced at the text message in the kit.
[Hercules: We met.]
I felt like my stomach was empty.
It was a text message that arrived in the car I was worried about.
‘Thank goodness.’
Hercules.
Yuwon asked Son Goku to help him, the natural enemy of the giants.
If he were to be unable to escape and become trapped in Muspelheim, there would be nothing worse than that.
No matter how much we reduced the number of giants in Muspelheim, losing Son Goku in Ragnarok would have been a loss.
‘If it’s Hercules, there’s no problem.’
Unless Surtur moves directly, he will not be able to catch Goku and Hercules.
Moreover, even Surtur was in the midst of gathering ‘fire’ by now.
I felt relieved now.
“What do you find so fun?”
Glancing-.
Diablo stole Yuwon’s player kit.
Yuwon quickly locked the player kit when he saw Diablo coming back.
“What’s so boring?”
“Because it’s private.”
“I helped you, but can you tell me a secret?”
“I appreciate that.”
If it weren’t for Diablo, it would probably have been difficult to attract the Demon King.
Even if he could draw the attention of the Demon Lords through the question and answer method, Yuwon had a 50/50 chance that they would side with Asgard.
In the end, it was thanks to Diablo’s influence that this result was possible.
“I like strong guys. And you are the strongest person I know.”
Yuwon looked at Diablo with a puzzled expression.
Diablo is raising his level of speculation.
However, as Yuwon knew, there were many people around Diablo who were stronger than Yuwon.
“I don’t think I’m that good.”
Right now, Baal was a high ranker within the top 100, as were Diablo’s archenemies Metatron and Michael of Heaven.
Moreover, Diablo was a being who had competed with the Heavenly Fighting God and the Jade Emperor.
“A grown hunting dog might be able to fight and defeat a young tiger. “But they are not yet grown, and the two have different seeds.”
“Are you saying I’m a tiger?”
“That’s right. “Other guys are no different from bastards in my eyes.”
If someone else had said this, it would have seemed arrogant, but the opponent was Diablo.
“I want to see you all grown up. “I want to see how big it will grow and how great it is.”
Swish-.
Diablo turned around.
Where he was heading, a huge monster from the demon world was lying flat on his face.
“I heard you defeated King Taktap Cheon?”
Diablo riding on the body of a monster.
He nodded to Yuwon to hurry up and get on board.
“I lost to that Astaroth guy a long time ago. From then on, I was interested in a guy called Taktap Cheonwang.”
Even so, it was Diablo who was interested in Yuwon.
Because Diablo’s clone that appeared in the administrator’s test was defeated by Yuwon too easily.
Then, the news of King Taktapcheon’s defeat reached his ears.
That was the reason why Diablo raised Yuwon’s hand.
“Where are we going?”
“Where in the world is there anything free?”
Purr-.
The monster carrying Yuwon and Diablo rose up.
Diablo continued speaking.
“The decision can be overturned. “It’s not difficult for me to bring back the Demon Lord or persuade those unruly bastards.”
“Is this a threat?”
“With this, I get to hold the sword.”
I felt like I knew what I wanted.
Diablo made fighting Yuwon a condition for joining Asgard.
The reason why this result was possible is because of Diablo’s expectations for Yuwon.
“If you are disappointed, you can always reverse your decision. Instead, I will grant you one favor, even if it only hurts me. “Whatever it is.”
Doo doo doo doo doo-.
The monster carrying Diablo and Yuwon has escaped the palace. Diablo looked at the empty plain where the monster was heading with his arms crossed and asked with a grin.
“Are you confident you won’t disappoint?”
It’s not a fight that needs to be won.
The opponent is Diablo.
He was a high ranker ranked 14th.
A fight he was no match for in the first place.
Diablo also compared Yuwon to a tiger that has not yet grown up.
In this fight, you don’t have to win, you have to prove your skills.
‘It’s a fight where expectations must be met…’
It wasn’t a bad suggestion.
I’ll grant you a favor even if it only hurts you.
The moment Yuwon heard those words, he was able to immediately think of what request to ask.
Run and run like that.
Yuwon and Diablo arrived in the empty plains, far from the city where Belial’s palace was located, and stood facing each other.
“Well, don’t feel too pressured. “I’m just saying let’s have fun.”
“I don’t really like fighting.”
Skak-.
The sword is drawn out, and Yuwon’s magical power gradually begins to flow out.
“No pressure.”
Ugh-.
Slurp slurp-.
Arthur and Ares.
And even Susanoo.
All of Yuwon’s undead appeared.
-Do you think this must be a very difficult situation for you to even call me?
Susanoo didn’t really try to help Yuwon.
Because he was not willing to acknowledge Yuwon as his master until he defeated him with his skills.
Thanks to that, even if Yuwon tried to deal with Susanoo, he wasn’t comfortable with it. Disobedient souls required several times more magical power than before to deal with.
Therefore, Yuwon needed another bait to lure Susanoo.
“Just look at the guy in front of you and talk.”
-…Diablo?
I could feel Susanoo’s soul shaking.
The only bait that could stimulate him.
That was the existence of an ‘enemy’ strong enough to make Susanoo go crazy.
“I don’t want to fight, so go in.”
-Is it going to come out like this?
Yuwon’s intentions were clearly visible.
So I felt embarrassed, but I couldn’t help but ask.
Because the bait called Diablo was such an appetizing bait.
Susanoo.
He was a famous fighting fanatic even among high rankers.
-Just this one time.
“That is enough.”
Anyway, sooner or later, I was planning on subduing him like Susanoo said.
This was the last time I received help from him through this expedient method.
“Is it Susanoo?”
Chichichichi-.
The color of the ground begins to change through Diablo’s toes.
The earth turns bright red.
Diablo walks onto the ground that is starting to heat up.
“You called an interesting guy.”
Diablo, who likes the strong, was also interested in Susanoo a long time ago.
Susanoo was known as the strongest of the three demons with his demon-like sword skills.
At his appearance, Diablo became even hotter than before and opened his mouth.
“After all, you are a tiger.”
Knock-.
Diablo’s human skin split open, revealing the devil’s skin inside.
“Kim Yu-won.”
It feels like my body is being crushed just by approaching.
Yuwon began to move his heavy steps towards Diablo.
