Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 299
[Level Up with God Episode 299]
* * *
Since childhood, Hargan grew up dreaming of three people.
Zeus, the god of heaven.
Hades, the god of death.
Poseidon, the sea god.
Known as the Three Lords of Olympus, they firmly guarded their respective territories.
Zeus the sky.
Hades is hell.
Poseidon is the sea.
It was as if we had promised without saying anything that we would not interfere in each other’s territory and not encounter each other.
It’s been a really long time like that.
But now.
Those three people gathered in one place.
‘Isn’t this the first time we’ve gathered together like this?’
I didn’t talk much with my father, Zeus.
But I have never heard of all three of them ever getting together.
Because Olympus was a guild with thoroughly individualistic tendencies.
“Is this the first time since that day?”
“Because we’ve never met like this.”
“It’s been a while, brothers.”
Zeus greeted Hades and Poseidon.
A strange current flowed between the three people. It had been a long time since we had reunited, but no one was happy about this moment.
Although they are brothers, their relationship is now worse than that of others.
Among them, Poseidon was especially sharp.
“Aren’t we worthy of a warm greeting?”
Poseidon was imprisoned in Asgard by Zeus until the destruction of Olympus.
Of course, considering the years he had lived, it was not a very long time. But that didn’t make the feeling of betrayal or anger lessen.
“That’s right.”
“Knowing that, what kind of face do you have…”
“Don’t worry. “Now I have no regrets about Olympus.”
Zeus’ gaze turned to Hades.
Unlike Poseidon, who showed his teeth and growled, Hades was watching quietly, as was his usual personality.
“I heard the good news. “Olympus was a mess.”
Despite his calm tone, the meaning behind it was a reprimand.
How did Olympus get to this point?
The huge guild that used to control the tower along with Asgard has now become one of the ordinary large guilds.
That was the reputation of Olympus in the recent disappearance of Zeus.
“Eldest brother, you are a saint. That’s why I thought that the eldest brother should not be the head of a group.”
“What do you want to say?”
“Olympus needs greater power.”
“Gigantomachia is over. Olympus is now in an era of peace. “It is time to strengthen our internal stability rather than increase our power by making enemies like you.”
“It’s an era of peace…”
The corners of Zeus’ mouth rose.
“Did it look like that?”
Hades gave a puzzled look at the reaction as if he knew something.
Zeus laughed at the word peace. There was no way he would react like this for no reason.
“I don’t like this guy, but it would be much better for him to lead Olympus.”
Zeus’ gaze turned to Yuwon.
Zeus, who had been looking at the two people as if he were pitiful, opened his eyes for the first time.
“Out of all of them, he’s the only one with his eyes open.”
“….”
It was an invaluable compliment to him.
If you think about it, Yuwon also had nothing to say. Until Yuwon returned using Clockwork, he was unaware of the crisis that was about to hit the tower.
However, Zeus saw the big trend and prepared for it even without such expedient measures.
Perhaps the existence of Zeus was the biggest change brought about by Yuwon, who returned to the past.
“Disaster will soon strike the tower.”
disaster.
These were the words uttered by Zeus after experiencing Gigantomachia.
It was a declaration that something much bigger than that would happen in the future, beyond a war.
“The top of the tower. Or outside. After all, there is something beyond the world we know.”
Yuwon stuck out his tongue at what he said.
It wasn’t true the first time.
Although he had met the Chaos of Foolishness and gained their power, he was aware of the existence of the ‘outside’ before anyone Yuwon knew.
Is this also a change that I brought about?
Nothing is certain, but in any case, Zeus was a bigger giant than Yuwon first thought.
“The virtue of a saint becomes incompetent as the times go by. “That position is not suitable for you, big brother.”
“Are you telling me to step back?”
“I’m telling you to do it right now.”
One word at a time.
These were words that served as a dagger to Hades’ heart.
But that wasn’t something that could be overlooked. No matter how much they didn’t get along, they were brothers.
And Zeus was the one who created the current Olympus from scratch.
In the process, Zeus was never wrong.
Hades closed his eyes, even forgetting the purpose of coming here.
But even for a moment.
“Leave family fights later.”
match-.
Attention was drawn to the sound of applause that did not fit the atmosphere.
Zeus and Hades Poseidon.
All three people paid attention to Yuwon’s raised hand.
“Wasn’t everyone here because they were curious about this?”
There is one reason why three people who never got together were able to get together like this.
It was because of an item called ‘Heart of Uranus’.
Not to mention Zeus, the original owner of the thunderbolt, Poseidon also searched for the sea god stone for a long time.
Although it was not revealed on the outside, Hades also wandered around the tower in search of a black god stone like the heavenly god stone that was the core of the thunderbolt.
But it’s an item made by combining three stones together.
I couldn’t help but be interested.
“It was originally mine.”
Poseidon’s eyes were shining with greed as he looked at the heart of Ouranos.
“It is a reward that was rightfully earned after taking the test. Of course it’s mine.”
“What I mean by an open mouth….”
“Don’t forget the conditions.”
Poseidon’s eyes crinkled at Yuwon’s words.
It was Yoo-won who brought him out from the prison of Asgard. Like Zeus, who escaped under the condition of helping Ragnarok, he too had conditions instead of finding freedom.
“Are you telling me to act as your teacher?”
Yuwon nodded.
“I wouldn’t go so far as to call him a teacher, but anyway. And on top of that, promise not to cause trouble again.”
lately.
Yuwon contacted Odin.
Please borrow Poseidon for a while.
Rather than expressing his disapproval, Odin, who had already experienced Zeus’s situation once, first asked the reason.
What are you planning to use Poseidon for?
Odin, who was in debt to Yuwon due to Ragnarok, granted the request. Thanks to this, Poseidon came out and appeared in front of Yuwon.
He could have not kept his promise, but Yuwon didn’t think he would.
This was because he knew how strong Poseidon’s obsession with the Sea God Stone was.
The three gods of Olympus.
Yuwon had one thing in common for them.
“I want to know how to handle this item. To do that, you need to be proficient in three attributes.”
The treasure is rotting away.
As Zeus said, Yuwon believed that he had not yet been able to properly handle Uranus’ heart.
Although it deals with magic of various attributes, it is only an ability that borrows the power of items.
In many ways, Yuwon was still unskilled in handling various attributes of magical power.
“I will pay the debt.”
Poseidon paid the price of freedom, and Zeus paid the price by allowing Hargan to train.
Since Hades was the only one who came here out of pure curiosity without any compensation, Yuwon bowed his head to him.
Still, I was glad.
Because Hades didn’t just act out of pure goodwill.
“The only thing I’m curious about is Tartarus. “I don’t need anything else.”
His eyes turned to Uranus in Yuwon’s hand.
There was something that each wanted from the other.
This made the story much easier.
“I start first.”
Jeopuk-.
Poseidon was the first to approach Yuwon.
A fire burned in his eyes. He held a trident in his hand, glaring at Yuwon with harsh eyes as if he were a enemy of Cheolcheonji.
It was clear what the intention was.
He is trying to get revenge on Yuwon under the pretext of training.
“What…”
Yuwon smiled slightly at that obvious and childish intention.
okay.
“In whatever order you like.”
I thought it would come out like this.
* * *
Zeus supported Hargan. As the three people with Hades walked away, the stage was roughly set up.
The air became humid.
It’s been a long time since I held a spear.
Excitement took over my entire body. I wanted to run right in front of him and pierce Yuwon’s uvula with a spear.
but.
‘Let’s not let our guard down.’
Past experience speaks for itself.
The opponent was not ordinary.
Just look at the fact that Zeus was dragged down from the throne of Olympus because of Yuwon.
Yuwon had something that went beyond his skills.
Kuuuk-.
Calming down his excitement, Poseidon calmly looked at Yuwon.
The humid air soon turned into fog. Poseidon’s blue eyes flashed in his blurred vision.
“Did you say you wanted to teach?”
Beyond the fog.
Yuwon’s eyes burned red. The moment Poseidon saw the eyes sparkling with red on one side and gold on the other, he felt a strange threat.
Something whose substance cannot be grasped.
As expected, rushing in blindly was not a trick.
Shootaaa-.
Blue waves swirled around Poseidon.
The waves flowed around Poseidon and gathered around the tip of his spear. The force of a huge tidal wave was contained in a small current, and its power was completely contained in his spear.
“Then I guess I’ll have to get used to the water first.”
Quauuuu-.
The window moved and water sprayed out in a parabolic shape.
A huge ocean is formed in an instant. Poseidon, who changed the surrounding terrain in an instant, was not satisfied with that and continued to move his spear as if dancing.
Shoot, shoot, shoot-.
The sea made waves and sang a song.
The gigantic monster named Sea moved according to Poseidon’s will. Yuwon realized that if he wanted to, he could move the monster called the sea to crush him.
This was Poseidon.
Sea God.
A high ranker who manipulates the sea to his will and uses that power to crush his opponents.
“It’s not without merit.”
Hwareuk-.
Hwaan Geumjeong shone. Two eyes of different colors looked at Poseidon and the sea around him.
Shootaaa-.
The writhing sea rises upward.
Dozens of tsunamis rose and surrounded the surrounding area. It felt more solid than when surrounded by tens of thousands of players.
Poseidon, who created the tsunami, moved the tip of his spear with his blue eyes shining.
‘This is enough.’
In front of the huge ocean, humans are nothing more than a lump of blood. Even though it is water that can be easily seen anywhere, when it gathers to form the ocean, its weight reaches hundreds of millions of tons, so its power can be said to be the power of God.
This is the true power that made him called the Sea God.
No matter how fast or long it was, it wasn’t something that a player who wasn’t even a ranker could use their brains to avoid or block.
At least that’s what Poseidon thought at this moment.
but.
“It’s because you’re so ignorant…”
Zeus, who was standing in the clouds in the sky and looking at the scene, clicked his tongue as if it was pitiful.
“Now that I think about it, I’m out of prison and I don’t know what to do with the world.”
Hades muttered, “That’s right,” and criticized Poseidon’s foolishness.
“I don’t even know what that guy’s ranking is.”
