Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 364
[Level Up with God Episode 364]
* * *
A conference hall with a long round table.
There were only three people in the room decorated with expensive paintings and a luxurious round table imported from the guild ‘Round Table’.
Yuwon, Mimir and Odin.
Three people sat around a round table.
“Thor, you’ve been doing useless things.”
Odin looked disapprovingly at Thor, who stood outside the conference hall with his hands raised.
Thor’s arms were filled with restraints weighing as much as 10,000 pounds. Even if Thor is a double-digit high ranker, it will not be easy to carry that weight.
Although it was a somewhat childish corporal punishment.
Odin thought that this kind of corporal punishment was more intuitive.
“Pay attention to the people, but do not expect attention from the people. “I must have told you not to be confused about this a long time ago.”
Actually, if you think about it, there was no major problem with Thor’s actions.
It was just a matter of direction of interest.
A king should care about his people and not expect their attention.
That was Odin’s theory about the king, and Thor had been confusing it recently.
“How much longer do you plan on keeping me like that?”
“Maybe I should leave it like that for about a month to reflect.”
“You’re going to have a hard time.”
As the two talked, Yuwon looked at Thor, who was standing outside the door with his arms raised.
My arms are already shaking.
Still, he gritted his teeth and held on, as if he knew that even greater corporal punishment would await him the moment he lowered his arms.
“Well, just leave that guy like that.”
Sigh-.
Odin neatly put his hands together and placed them on the round table.
“Let’s start by talking about Kronos.”
Yuwon and Mimir’s eyes brightened.
Kronos.
Finally, the name was mentioned in Odin’s mouth.
“Do you remember?”
“As I kept thinking about it, it slowly came back to me. “Once I remembered two letters, the other two letters also came to mind.”
Just making it that far was amazing.
Clockwork is a collaboration between Odin and Mimir Kronos.
Odin was the third person to overcome the power of clockwork and remember Kronos, following the Demon King and Mimir.
“Of course, all I remembered was the name and face. “I have very little memory of him.”
“If that’s the case, I’m not much different. “Fragmentary memories are all.”
“There is no need to remember. “Even if you remember, it’s counterproductive.”
Mimir and Odin’s attention focused on Yuwon’s words.
Yuwon shook his head at the two people’s expressions asking why.
Kronos Mimir Odin.
The three were high rankers who entered the top around the same time and had a closer relationship than anyone else.
If his memories return, will Odin and Mimir be able to fight properly?
‘It doesn’t go that far.’
An image of three people, arm in arm, talking drunkenly appeared in Yuwon’s mind.
They fight to kill each other with all their memories.
It was something that could never have happened.
“Well, if that’s the case.”
Odin shrugged and stopped thinking about Kronos.
A memory that doesn’t come to mind no matter how hard you try. There was no need to force myself to think that there would be no benefit in bringing it back to life.
“so? “Are you saying something big will happen if I just leave him like this?”
“I think so.”
“right.”
The answer came from both Yuwon and Mimir at the same time.
Both of their answers were filled with confidence.
The reason was the same.
Mimir was because of vague anxiety about Kronos who had turned into a foreign god, and Yuwon was because he came from the future where that anxiety became reality.
“…okay?”
One is Mimir, my best friend.
And the other is a high ranker who predicted Ragnarok and put an end to it.
It was an answer that Odin could not ignore.
“Then, should we move on with only fragmentary memories first?”
“I’ll tell you about Kronos’ abilities.”
This place was created because of Kronos.
What I needed to talk about now wasn’t things like Kronos and the memories of the two of them.
What’s important is Kronos’ ability.
His current situation and location.
And purpose.
It was things like that.
Yuwon talked about the abilities of Kronos that he remembered.
A skill to control time by consuming magical power and the time given to you.
Mimir and Odin were quite surprised by the skill that was only allowed to one person in this tower.
“Managing time….”
“It’s a great skill, even though there are conditions attached.”
“The question is whether he is still allowed to use that skill.”
For some reason, Kronos became a foreign news source.
According to Zeus’s words, he seems to have maintained his original appearance to some extent, but it is unknown whether his original skills will remain the same.
For now, there was no choice but to move assuming that the skill was maintained.
“Then what about the skill…”
“I will take care of that.”
These were Odin’s words.
Others might not know, but Odin was the strongest warrior Yuwon knew.
Since I told you about his ability, a strategy for it should already be in your mind.
Yuwon nodded and continued speaking.
“Then what remains is his location and purpose?”
Yuwon’s eyes turned to Mimir this time.
There was a high possibility that the answer to this would come from him.
but.
“I can’t even see it with my own eyes.”
Unfortunately, his eyes didn’t have much effect on Outer.
Even the all-seeing eyes of this tower seemed unable to reach the beings outside the tower.
“is it.”
A situation where one cannot expect help even from the eyes of Mimir, whom one trusted.
Yuwon rested his chin for a moment and was lost in thought.
‘If I knew the purpose, I would be able to know where he is.’
The first shovel was important.
purpose.
I knew what foolish chaotic plans there were, but Kronos was different.
‘It’s the purpose…’
Yuwon was deep in thought.
“Why are you so concerned about Kronos?”
Yuwon raised his head at Mimir’s words.
“If you think about the reason again, you might find the answer.”
“reason?”
There were deep wrinkles between Yuwon’s eyebrows.
Even if it was just a throwaway comment, it was different if it came from Mimir’s mouth.
No matter how much of his power was lost due to his involvement with beings outside the tower, Mimir was still Mimir.
Every word he said always caught my guard and pierced the truth.
While I was thinking about Mimir’s words a few times.
‘Zeus.’
Zeus’ words appeared in Yuwon’s mind.
Cronus appeared before Zeus. If he had shown up to reunite with his child, he would have said anything and disappeared.
But Kronos didn’t do that.
He appeared before Zeus and suddenly disappeared again.
That’s right.
“It’s Poseidon.”
Yuwon’s voice was full of confidence.
The quiet hall was revitalized. Odin, who had been enduring silence, asked.
“What do you mean?”
“Kronos would have gone to see Poseidon.”
“Poseidon?”
“Originally, I aimed for Zeus, but that failed.”
It was clear that Kronos’ intentions were not very good.
If the first thing he found after coming through the door was Zeus, then the facts were roughly correct.
‘No matter how much Cronus is, Zeus cannot be easily touched.’
At this point, Zeus has become the being competing for supremacy in this tower.
So, if it appeared in front of you for a moment and then disappeared again.
And if the reason the initial target was Zeus was because of blood.
‘The next target is likely to be Hades or Poseidon.’
It wasn’t Hades.
He was currently in Olympus. Not long ago, the vigilance of Olympus was further strengthened, and it was not easy to target him.
More than anything else, he has Hercules by his side.
It wasn’t easy to touch.
“Poseidon, Poseidon…”
Odin muttered Poseidon’s name repeatedly.
Perhaps from now on, Asgard will make every effort to find Poseidon.
Mimir’s influence within Asgard was just as strong.
‘It’s not that difficult to find once the exams are over.’
If Poseidon passed the upward test and came back down.
It wasn’t that difficult to spot the striking blue-haired large man. Moreover, the Eye of Asgard was everywhere in this tower.
With this, the approximate direction was decided.
There is only one problem left.
Why on earth did the foolish Chaos let Kronos in here?
‘Are you targeting me? Or…’
Did you draw a bigger picture?
That was when the story of the three people was coming to an end.
“Big deal! “We’re in big trouble!”
An urgent voice came from outside the conference room.
Ki-.
The man hurriedly opened the door without even daring to ask Odin’s permission.
He was Odin’s second son, Loki.
“father!”
“What’s going on?”
It seems like he won’t leave it alone if it’s not a big deal.
Loki opened his mouth, ignoring Odin’s stern expression.
“On the first floor….”
* * *
Shootaaa-.
The waves hit.
It was a calm wave. The waves moving with the wind hit the rocks and broke beautifully.
slam-.
The broken water droplets sparkled in the sunlight. At first glance, it may look like any beach, but you will soon find something strange about it.
Rocks broken by waves.
It was no ordinary rock.
“…What is this?”
Hephaestus stood on the roof holding a hammer.
All the rocks broken by the waves were someone’s house. The city was submerged in a huge sea of water, and all the people on the first floor drowned.
It was all the work of one person.
“Can you handle this now?”
Tok-.
As soon as the blue-haired man Poseidon’s feet touched, the waves became calm as if they had never been that way.
Poseidon, who had submerged the city on the first floor in the sea in just a few minutes, smiled at Hephaestus.
“Are you afraid?”
It was an alumni book answer.
In the first place, the reaction seemed as if Hephaestus’ questions were not even considered.
But rather than feeling bad, Hephaestus just felt something foreign.
‘The condition is not abnormal.’
gulp-.
That was his thought from the first time he came down to the lowest level of this tower.
A place that he, one of the Three Gods, would never visit.
For someone as strong as Poseidon, this first-tier city was not an attractive place to use as a base.
Furthermore.
‘It’s a completely different person.’
The look in Poseidon’s eyes was so different that it was difficult to think of him as someone Hephaestus had known so far.
Otherwise, there was no way he would have come down to the first floor and behaved like this.
‘They ignored the penalty and massacred people. There would be no way to avoid such heavy rain and tsunami except for a small number of rankers.’
Wow-.
Hephaestus, holding the hammer in his hand, glared at Poseidon.
It is obvious what will happen next.
“He will be here soon.”
I’m scared to say those words.
What the heck.
The space between Poseidon and Hephaestus split and the heavens and earth shook.
Kureung kugugugu-.
The magic power that connects heaven and earth exploded with anger. That anger was directed at Poseidon, who dared to do something like this, and crushed his shoulders.
And Poseidon laughed at the weight.
“Yes, that’s right.”
A being who annoys the ranker’s intervention more than anyone else in this tower.
A person who protects and governs the laws of the tower.
“I waited for that guy.”
Jeopuk-.
The manager appeared in front of Poseidon.
