Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 425
[Level Up with God Episode 425]
* * *
The Valkyries were summoned.
This was an order that summoned not only thousands of troops made up entirely of rankers, but also their leader, Brunnhilde.
The warriors of Valhalla were all armed with spears and swords, ready to fight at any time.
“What’s going on?”
“Vice-captain. “Did you hear anything?”
“Nothing has been delivered yet. All I can say is to arm yourself and stand by.”
Vice-captain Sieglinde did not understand what was going on.
The only order received was to prepare for battle and have the Valkyries on standby.
‘Today must be a day for harmony…’
A place where guild leaders of large guilds or top high rankers within the top 100 gather to build alliances and discuss and make promises for the future.
Moreover, Unity Day was scheduled to continue for three days starting today.
That’s because the story about the outside of the tower was an important issue to be discussed.
however.
‘What’s the point of fighting on a day like today?’
Jeopuk-.
It was then that the leader of the Valkyries arrived at the training ground.
Even so, this is the car that everyone was curious about.
Sieglinde was the first to salute Brunnhilde, who appeared.
“Are you here?”
“It looks like preparations are complete.”
“That’s right. But…”
“Why was this order given?”
Sieglinde nodded.
A very obvious question.
But it was not Brünnhilde who could answer that question.
“It is an order given by His Majesty.”
“Your Majesty?”
“I wasn’t told why.”
don’t know why
Nevertheless, there was not a single question on Brunnhilde’s face.
“But it is an order given by His Majesty.”
“…yes.”
Sieglinde also agreed with that statement.
It was Odin and no one else.
A great being who established Valhalla and trained Valkyries in this world that was full of monsters, let alone a proper country.
Because I believed that there was nothing more foolish than questioning what Odin did.
Brunnhilde made the Valkyries understand like that.
‘Even so…’
She looked at the Valkyries who were fully armed and waiting for the next command.
‘I hope Your Majesty is wrong this time.’
Even though she knew it wouldn’t happen, she was anxious.
When has there ever been a time when this number of Valkyries would move? This is probably the first time since Ragnarok.
But now, at this time, the strongest forces in the tower are gathered in Bahala.
Having the Valkyries armed and waiting like this meant one thing.
‘A bigger battle awaits than Ragnarok?’
* * *
KIEEEE-.
The door to Valhalla Castle was opened.
Mimir entered Odin’s room and spoke to Odin, who was watering the tree inside.
“Were you here again?”
Slurp-.
Odin, perhaps a gardener, was watering the trees that had grown up in the room in a place where there was no sunlight.
“Why on earth do you always come to this unpleasant place?”
“Yggdrasil is probably the only one in this tower who is in a bad mood.”
“of course. “I’ve been sleeping for years because of this damn tree.”
Yggdrasil.
In Asgard, it was considered the tree of life and the source of all magical power.
However, to Mimir, Yggdrasil was no different from an enemy that could be burned, putting him into a long sleep.
However, Odin had planted Yggdrasil in his room and was carefully nurturing it, so I couldn’t help but feel upset.
“Don’t be like that. “Yggdrasil is the one who put the curse on you, but on the other hand, only Yggdrasil can lift your curse.”
This is correct in every detail.
Mimir also knew.
The only way to break his damn curse is through Yggdrasil.
“But what’s going on this morning?”
“Didn’t you tell me something?”
“Valkyries?”
“okay. “I’m ready.”
“As expected, it is Brunnhilde. “It’s always one step faster than expected.”
Odin, who was bending down to take care of Yggdrasil, burst into laughter.
How long have you been here?
Mimir asked, remembering Odin, who had not been seen since last night.
“Have you been here the whole time?”
“Then where should I go?”
“Not even sleeping?”
“Isn’t it the same for you that you didn’t sleep? “There’s no problem if you don’t sleep for a day, so don’t worry.”
Mimir sleeps for ninety-nine out of a hundred years. Perhaps because of this, Mimir never slept as much as he was awake.
Since I was going to get a good night’s sleep soon anyway, I decided to enjoy the time I was awake.
however.
“You seem very nervous.”
Mimir and Odin were different.
Odin had never deliberately avoided sleeping like he did now. As Odin said, staying up all night won’t cause any major problems, but he considered regularity quite important.
I understand.
Considering what happened just a short time ago.
“I didn’t feel like this even when I was fighting Surtur.”
Kuuk-.
Odin, who was watering the roots of Yggdrasil, took off the straw hat he was wearing and put it down and asked.
“Is it really today?”
A question I’ve heard several times already.
“okay.”
“Today will be remembered by a different name, not the day of unity.”
“Can not help it. “There is no day like today to unite unruly people.”
“but.”
It was something I couldn’t help but sympathize with.
That was the same with the rankers I met yesterday.
Rankers are people who have proven their abilities by reaching the top of a tower.
The odds of being selected as a player and becoming a ranker were one in tens of thousands, so each and every one of them was like being chosen.
Moreover, high rankers were the ones competing for supremacy even among those rankers.
“It wouldn’t be easy to control even Diablo.”
The tower was scattered among various factions.
Under the name of guild. And into a world divided into different layers.
Uniting the divided forces as one was the true purpose of today’s ‘harmony’.
“Is there anyone else who knows about this?”
“There are two more people.”
“two people?”
I thought there might be one, but there are two.
Mimir nodded and answered Odin’s questioning expression.
“Kim Yu-won and Zeus. “At least these two will know.”
“Even if it’s Kim Yu-won, what about Zeus?”
One person thought it was worth it.
Yuwon is the one who returned after being chosen by Clockwork.
Moreover, he had made plans for future events through Mimir’s knowledge.
But Zeus couldn’t help but be surprised.
“It’s a good thing I let it go.”
Perhaps Zeus, like Yuwon, may become an essential ally in the fight against the beings outside the tower.
Odin had such expectations.
but.
“Don’t be too trusting.”
Mimir’s thoughts were quite different from Odin’s.
“Even if Kim Yu-won is like that, Zeus is a little dangerous.”
“Is it dangerous?”
“The purpose is the same, but the means and methods for achieving it are different. “This is a guy who has no hesitation in giving up or sacrificing something for his own purposes.”
“Why do you think so?”
“Because that’s how Olympus was built.”
“….”
Mimir’s words reminded Odin of the past history of Olympus.
A guild established with the three gods, including Zeus. In that guild, Zeus became king and ruled.
As the king of Asgard, I watched the process of Olympus being built from afar, but the process was definitely not that smooth.
“surely. “Let’s be on guard.”
“Well, anyway, for now, it’s clear that he’s the most reliable ally.”
“What are you asking me to do?”
Odin grumbled at the complex repetition of words and changed his clothes.
Even though he only took off his straw hat and changed his clothes, he exuded dignity.
Mimir began walking down the hallway, following Odin, whose expression changed.
Now is the time.
“Has Jecheon Daeseong arrived yet?”
“I tried to inquire, but his whereabouts are unknown.”
“It’s a shame. “It would have been a great help if I had.”
“There is no doubt about your skills. “He will probably become the strongest person in this tower in the future.”
“most? “More than me?”
“Maybe so. “Because he’s looking for Cheonchuk right now.”
“It’s heavenly…”
A door appeared in the eyes of the two people.
A conference hall for unity today.
There will be many great rankers from large guilds gathered there now.
“There is a demon king, so finding him will be no problem.”
“Maybe so.”
“Then I’ll leave it alone.”
chin-.
Odin grabbed the handle that opened the conference hall.
“Let us do our job.”
Kiiiiii-.
The door into the conference room was wide open.
Although it was thick, there was only one door that was less than an inch wide.
However, when Odin opened the door and went inside, he felt the air that touched his skin change.
Dozens of rankers filled the conference hall.
Odin opened his mouth as he stood in front of them.
“It’s been just one day.”
There was no pretense.
If that’s the case, I did enough yesterday.
“I’m sure everyone fully knows what kind of event today is, right?”
There was no answer.
But they all knew.
This is a place to prepare for the beings outside the tower.
‘Agni of the Devas. Kubera.’
Odin’s eyes scanned the audience.
He found the rankers who fought with Shub Nigguras on the first floor.
‘Zeus.’
Agni and Kubera of the Devas. And even Zeus.
Everyone who knew about Shub Nigguras had gathered here, as the invitation had been sent.
They will be the ones here to testify about the existence outside the tower.
Plus.
‘Kim Yu-won…’
Yu-won probably knows more than they do.
however.
Tuktuk-.
Mimir stabbed Odin in the back with his finger.
I knew it.
Since he had eyes, he was seeing.
‘does not exist.’
Definitely someone who should be here with me.
‘Kim Yu-won… why?’
* * *
Same time.
A village at the end of the world with black walls rising high into the sky.
Sigh-.
The farmers who were hoeing today especially glanced at the wall they had always seen.
“Today is the day, right? “Opening a venue for harmony in the capital.”
“I guess so? “Some kind of monster came in from outside, and that’s why they’re gathering.”
“Do I want to live because it’s so ugly?”
“I need to move quickly or something.”
A conversation that begins with the back straightened after being bent for a moment.
The farmers who came out of the field and sat down began to prepare new crops.
“That’s something that the great players will take care of. People like us just need to live happily ever after. “Don’t you draw it?”
“Okay, okay. Odin will take care of it.”
“Still, I can’t help but feel anxious.”
After the wall collapsed and the beings outside the tower made their first appearance.
In many worlds, residents of villages bordering the wall began to move in large numbers.
There is one reason.
This was because they no longer had faith that the village they lived in was safe.
“Isn’t that why we gathered today? “After a few days, there will be an answer to everything.”
“That’s right. Don’t worry too much. Sleep. First, let’s have a drink…”
Kkuk-.
A sound that came from somewhere.
Although it wasn’t that loud, the sound penetrated everyone’s ears so clearly.
“What?”
The heads of the residents gathered in the village turned.
In the same direction, as if we had promised.
So in their eyes.
“…uh?”
I saw the wall starting to crack again.
