Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 369
[Level Up with God Episode 369]
* * *
“This fortress is a mess.”
“That’s right. Zeus is dragged down and Ragnarok occurs. Now even managers…”
Grrrr-.
A drinking party that takes place in broad daylight.
10th floor martial arts world. The players sitting in the middle of the village drank and ate snacks.
“Don’t say anything. “What will happen to the world?”
“If the manager is dead, what happens to the first floor?”
“well. “Isn’t it actually ruined?”
“but. But on the other hand, I think things are going well.”
“what?”
“That’s right. Then there are no more restrictions for us. “I heard there’s no penalty anymore?”
“uh? Is that so? So did it go well?”
“Oh, but how is it that the manager’s death is a good thing? “Without those guys, this tower would become a completely lawless area.”
“No, but still…”
A world without managers.
This has been the most talked about topic among players recently.
For those who were born and raised in the tower, the presence of the manager was like air that was always by their side.
And it wasn’t much different for the new players who entered the top.
The entire system of the tower was centered around the manager, and it was impossible to imagine a world without him.
But what if there is no manager?
What will the world be like?
No one could know that. Therefore, thoughts were divided into two and there were those who wanted to be independent from managers.
of course.
“Well, well. “What does it have to do with us?”
It was a story of little concern to those who stopped at the 10th floor and settled in the martial world.
“It’s already been five hundred years since I entered the tower.”
“That’s terrible. It would be fifty years, not five hundred years. Another bluff.”
“what? “It’s real.”
“How can you live for 500 years with that skill? “I would have died of old age long ago.”
“Ah, once upon a time I-.”
The topic of conversation changed in an instant.
The fact that Poseidon is killing the manager and gathering new forces on the first floor is a story from a distant world to them.
Now, their pleasure was to settle down in a decent world, look for work every day, and drink like this.
however.
Ugh, huh-.
Ugh-.
Their player kits started beeping at the same time.
“Oh wait a minute. I contacted Kit…”
“Uh, me too.”
“what? “All at the same time?”
The same message was delivered to everyone’s kits.
I didn’t have very high expectations.
Because this kind of thing happened often.
“Also, an advertisement from some sect-.”
however.
“uh?”
The players who confirmed the contents began to stand up one by one.
“I… I have to go.”
“Really? you also?”
“I’m a bit….”
“You idiots.”
One player, looking at his friends hesitating, let out an obscene curse.
“This is an opportunity.”
Wow-.
A kit held in your hand.
Thinking about the message conveyed through it, he looked at the glass of wine he had been drinking just moments ago.
“I can achieve my dreams again.”
* * *
Phage Phage Support-.
A world surrounded by golden light.
In the middle of a world where all sound had disappeared, Poseidon opened his mouth.
“Father…”
His eyes look thoughtful.
As expected, Zeus had never seen eyes like those from Poseidon.
Kronos closed his eyes for quite a long time as a storm of golden current swept all around him.
Within.
He opened his eyes after a long time and asked.
“Do you remember me?”
“Kronos. The king who ruled my kingdom before I ruled Olympus. “My father.”
There were many ways to explain the person in front of you.
That’s how clearly Zeus remembered his identity.
To be precise, it would be correct to say that I finally ‘came up with it’.
“I don’t know why I didn’t remember you until now.”
Zeus’ case was different from the others.
Unlike friends or acquaintances who become strangers if you forget them, Zeus and Cronus were connected by blood.
Without a father, there are no children.
However, during that long time, Zeus never once thought about the existence of a person called ‘father’.
No matter how you think about it, it’s a strange thing.
“So what do you plan to do now?”
Zeus recalled himself.
Is it because they are related by blood? Or maybe I’m making eye contact for too long.
Or did contacting him once cause some kind of change?
Zeus answered Kronos’ question.
“Will anything change?”
Kurung Kurung-.
The surrounding electricity, which had stopped for a moment, suddenly changed.
“You are my enemy.”
“Why?”
“Because the inside and outside of this world cannot coexist.”
Kyaaaaa-!
Like a dragon howling, golden lightning rose into the sky along Zeus’ fingertips.
“Did you get the answer?”
Inside and outside.
Zeus had already divided the border between the two worlds.
Also, that they will not leave their world alone.
“Get out of your world.”
Zeus clearly knew.
Qarring-!
A huge storm struck Kronos’ body. The ground collapsed and the world was blacked out in golden light for a moment.
Kwazi Kwazizi-!
And in that storm, Poseidon’s body, which Cronus had occupied, was torn to pieces and burned.
The power of the sea that protected my body was no longer of any use.
“Well… I expected it to be like this.”
While my body was being torn apart.
Tsutsu tsutsutsu-.
Suddenly, the golden current pouring towards Kronos began to slowly stop.
no.
Tsutsuzu-.
It went beyond stopping and was going back again.
It’s like time goes backwards and the rainwater that was falling rises up into the sky again.
The purpose of the storm of lightning that hit Kronos’ head.
All time turned backwards.
‘Time…’
Zeus’ eyes narrowed.
Time reversal.
It was clearly a unique skill that Kronos possessed.
Even in this tower where many mysteries from various dimensions were mixed together, the only ranker who could control time was Kronos.
Time to go back in time in one space.
Something has changed.
Before Zeus knew it, Poseidon had risen to eye level with him.
No, now he looked at a man with the same face as himself, with black hair and a beard.
“You’re a little older than I remember.”
“Thanks to you.”
Kronos’ tone of voice was calm.
It was a strange feeling.
It was clear that it had been quite a while since we had seen each other. Even from his memory, Kronos left Olympus quite a long time ago.
But why?
Zeus felt that Cronus in front of him was unfamiliar, as if he was seeing him for the first time.
“What do you want?”
“Finding our world again.”
“We are…”
Zeus raised his head in response to Cronus.
The sky suddenly turned completely purple.
“Are you talking about those guys?”
The door hasn’t opened yet.
But it wasn’t strange no matter when it was opened.
“Even though he died like that, he was truly fearless.”
Where on earth is this coming from?
Zeus muttered that and looked at Cronus again.
He entered this tower when foolish chaos opened the door.
He was the person from this world that Zeus remembered.
But paradoxically, it was also a being that did not belong to this world.
The energy emanating from him immediately after throwing off Poseidon’s body was proof of this.
“What happened?”
“–. –all.”
A voice heard only at the end.
When Zeus frowned as if wondering what he was talking about, Cronus continued.
“–. He said —.”
“I can’t hear you.”
“okay?”
Kronos looked up and muttered.
“but. “There is no way I would allow it.”
Permission.
Whose permission are we talking about?
I didn’t hear anything really important. Feeling frustrated, Zeus decided to give up on answering that question.
instead.
“Then let’s change the question and-”
Zeus asked something else.
“What are you trying to do here?”
I’m scared to say those words.
Gooooo-.
Above the purple sky.
Huge ships began to appear one by one.
These were the means of transportation used to move between towers and towers created by various guilds, including ships sold in Asgard.
Starting with the huge guild Nova, there are several mid-sized guilds and small guilds.
Moreover, in terms of size alone, there is even a sect of Daeva, one of the largest guilds in the tower.
Zeus’ eyes lit up as stars began to decorate the sky.
“Are you really saying that with this many guilds, you’re going to catch a manager and turn the tower over?”
Sigh-.
Kronos raised his head and looked at the guilds that appeared in the sky.
Dozens of ships. And tens of thousands of rankers and players aboard that ship.
And other than that, many guilds and players were still gathering on the first floor.
“Everything is according to his plan.”
The picture was being drawn step by step.
This scene was a picture that Kronos had already seen a long time ago.
of course.
Zeus was not here in the picture he had seen.
“It will go as planned.”
“…Are you really wishing for the destruction of the tower?”
Countless gazes poured in.
Zeus never thought he would be scared of numbers or anything like that. However, this case was different.
The weakest ones are the top tier players.
The number of rankers was in the thousands and there were quite a few high rankers mixed in.
In addition, there are several top-level high rankers that even Zeus cannot ignore.
“It seems like everyone was quite excited by the manager’s death.”
Is there really anyone else who can gather this much power in this tower?
If it weren’t for the manager’s death, this kind of impact would not have been possible.
Tsureuk Tsutsu-.
Kronos’ face changed back to Poseidon’s.
Anyway, they knew that Poseidon had captured the manager, so Kronos also changed his appearance accordingly.
Kronos, who put on his mask again, asked.
“Are you planning on fighting alone again?”
also.
The Zeus that Cronus remembers was truly a maverick. Long before he was named the Three Gods, Zeus was superior to everyone else and always took the lead in fighting enemies alone.
Kronos thought it was the same this time too.
but.
“There is something you misunderstand.”
This fight wasn’t worth it.
“Unlike my older brothers, this time I still have a ‘side’.”
Shootaaa-.
The flow of magical power in the air changed.
The magical power was directed to one place. A terrifying energy that seemed to consume all the magical energy in the world came from afar.
“There’s no way he won’t do anything while they come.”
Zeus turned his head in the direction where the magic power was gathering. Then he saw a ship approaching in the distance.
A small ship that is not suitable for a large battlefield.
And the largest guild emblem engraved on the ship.
“Asgard.”
The eyes of Kronos, who had the face of Poseidon, trembled.
On the bow of the small boat that arrived last.
Odin was preparing to start the engine, holding Gungnir in his hand.
