Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 519
[Level Up with the Gods Episode 519]
Sigh.
I clenched my teeth so hard that they broke and rolled around in my mouth.
Gugugugugu-.
The giant’s legs rose above. He lifted the giant up with one hand and swung his club at him.
Whoa!
Two hit!
The giant’s feet burst like balloons. As the screaming giant stumbled, a distortion of intelligent beings rushed towards Hercules.
The moment I was about to swing my club and hit the guy running towards me.
“Grow up, Yeoui.”
Toukwaang-!
The huge Yeoui-bong reaching down from the sky stood between Hercules and the distortion of intelligent beings.
“…?”
Hercules raised his head and made a puzzled expression.
Clearly, this was Son Goku’s female fan.
But why on earth was he blocking his path?
Son Goku’s feet came into the field of view of Hercules, who raised his head in the direction from which Yeouibong flew.
Bah!
The sole of Goku’s foot kicked Hercules in the face. Hercules stumbled backwards and landed on his butt.
A laugh that came out because it was so absurd.
“What?”
Sigh-.
Goku grabbed Hercules by the collar.
“What are you trying to do?”
A growling voice.
As he knew Hercules better than anyone else, Goku could also know what he was thinking.
“Do you want to die like that?”
“no. “I want to live.”
“But why-.”
“It’s not that I want to die, it’s that I’m fighting to the death. “Just like you.”
Son Goku’s eyes wavered at Hercules’ answer.
Just a few minutes ago he was fighting, half unconscious.
He was so exhausted that he lost all sense of reason to the monster’s power and attacked Pandora for a moment.
And of course, Hercules, who returned with Pandora, knew about Son Goku’s condition.
“I heard they failed over there?”
Pak-.
Hercules shook off Goku’s hand that was holding his collar.
“Even if someone dies, someone has to survive. “That’s what wins.”
Jeopuk-.
Hercules started moving again.
I had already sweated so much that my whole body was cold. The muscles that had been inflated like balloons had shrunk slightly, as if the air had gone out.
Nevertheless, Hercules did not stop.
“A-san’s stubbornness….”
The same goes for Son Goku, who has no intention of backing down anyway.
“but.”
In the end, Son Goku raised the female baton and muttered.
“It’s not wrong.”
* * *
Before the fight begins, Odin has only one goal.
It was something that never backed down.
The moment this place, where most of the top rankers are gathered, is breached, those incomprehensible beings will instantly take the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
But the situation was getting worse.
“Guild of the Zodiac signs retreats!”
“Guild Death God Beast Blue Dragon and White Tiger Warriors! Requesting support!”
Several large guilds suffered a fatal blow.
“Remegedon is annihilated!”
Some guilds even got to the point where they could no longer survive.
“The soldiers of Heaven are retreating!”
“Lee Rangjin-gun seriously injured! “Treatment…”
Lee Rang-jin, who led the rankers of several guilds including Cheon-gye, suffered serious wounds and left the front line, and the resulting vacuum instantly changed the situation of the war.
There was literally no chaos.
“…Now that’s enough.”
Odin stood up.
Raphael and Uriel Brunnhilde, who were treating him, were embarrassed.
“Still in shape!”
“We can’t delay it any further.”
The unexpected break is now over.
Brunnhilde also did not think that Odin would ever accept treatment obediently.
“I am a warrior.”
He closed his eyes for a moment and listened to the sounds around him.
“Aaaah-!”
“You have to run away!”
“For the round table-!”
“They say it’s a round table and I have to run away!”
A scream was heard.
Morale was already at its lowest point. The results slowly began to become visible.
Bang bang!
In front of us, Hercules used his strong body as a wall to keep the battle line from collapsing.
However, his entire body was already covered with wounds.
Stumble-.
“Hercules!”
Son Goku, who was swinging his sword, quickly turned his head.
“It’s okay this way….”
Whoops!
Hercules, kicked by the distorting feet of an intelligent being, vomited blood.
“Cough!”
“Holy shit!”
Goku’s eyes were torn horizontally.
The monster’s blood, which had been barely suppressed since it attacked Pandora, began to boil.
However, no matter what, the stamina that had already been depleted could not be recovered.
Everyone was fighting dangerously.
so.
Jeopuk-.
Odin had to head to the battlefield again.
“Anyway…”
[The ‘King of Asgard’ is dethroned.]
[There is no longer a king on the battlefield.] [
The morale of the allies decreases.]
[The ‘Great Golden Warrior’ resides in his body. I listen.]
“…!”
The rankers were embarrassed and turned their heads.
Odin, exhausted and wounded, with deep wrinkles, slowly walked to the center of the battlefield. Hercules and Son Goku, who were engrossed in the fight, also looked back at him.
The power emanating from Odin has changed.
That was the moment when he decided to go to battle.
“I can’t just rest here, can I?”
Brunnhilde did not dare to stop Odin, whose complexion had turned white.
Because his determination was too heavy to be blocked by foolish worries.
“Brunnhilde.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“Until now, I have had a hard time following an ugly king.”
Chiji chijiji-.
White magical power spewed out from under Odin’s feet.
Suppressing his upset stomach, Odin began to walk.
“It was an honor to be with you.”
“no.”
Brunnhilde knelt down on one knee as Odin walked away.
“It was truly an honor for me…”
* * *
Kieeeee-!
With a roar, a huge mouth swallowed Odin.
Boom-.
Whoa!
Odin’s fist exploded Outer’s body. Then, the magic contained in the other hand unfolded.
thud-.
He struck the ground with the spear of Gungnir he was holding in his hand. Magical power spread throughout the land, creating a huge magic circle on the ground.
Puff bub bub buk!
Thousands of spears rising from the ground.
Wherever the spear was headed, it was not the allies, but the outers.
The bodies of the Outers, who had suddenly turned into hedgehogs, fell limp, and Odin threw himself in between them.
“Whoop-!”
Both arms holding the spear swelled.
The spear filled with magical power and swung with all its might pierced the huge whale flying in the sky.
Whoa!
A whale with a hole in its body fell to the ground. Odin stood in the sky and rolled his eyes toward his next target.
I wanted to throw the spear instead of swinging it like this.
I couldn’t even start Gungnir.
Because this shot was the last. I had to take at least one more guy with me before I threw this away.
Kwa-reung-kwa-ung-!
Odin’s spear danced.
Strangely enough, the tattered body moved more lightly than ever.
“I think about death all the time.”
That was what Mimir said one day when he woke up and looked out the window.
“Odin. “How do you want to die?”
“It’s not about how do you want to live, but how do you want to die?”
I thought it was an absurd question.
It was natural.
When asked this type of question, it was common to ask what kind of life you want to live.
“Aaaah!”
Quaat-!
The tip of Gungnir’s spear cut another Outer’s body in half. My heart was burning like it was going to explode and my breath was reaching my chin.
“Anyone can make a living. But deciding the moment of death is not something anyone can do.”
“You decide the moment you die. “It won’t be very pleasant.”
“I think differently, Odin. That’s as important as how you live. “Maybe that moment is the meaning of our existence.”
Susss-.
Odin, who was rolling his eyes looking for his next enemy, felt a secret presence coming from behind.
Buuung-.
At the same time as he turned his body in the opposite direction, Odin swung his fist.
no.
I tried to swing it.
“…Mimir?”
If only the being in front of me wasn’t Mimir.
Wow!
“—!”
Eyes growing as if torn apart.
My vision became blurred along with the shock I felt in my stomach.
What appeared to be Mimir just moments ago has suddenly turned into a single cell in the shape of a human.
The tentacle that stabbed my back pierced my stomach and penetrated my body, causing blood to gush out of my mouth.
“Kuuup…”
The tentacle that pierced his body lifted Odin up.
Odin’s body flew toward the center of the battlefield and fell to the ground.
Kwaaang-!
“Cluck clack!”
Laughter escaped along with the cough.
How can you be deceived by this obvious thing?
I knew Mimir was dead. Nevertheless, the reason I was shaken was because of my weak heart that could not bear to attack him.
“Ha ha ha….”
Half of his body was blown away, but Odin did not despair.
In fact, I felt much more refreshed.
Right now at this moment.
He realized clearly.
“Uncharacteristic of you, you’re asking a question that isn’t that difficult.”
“I guess you’ve already thought about it?”
“okay.”
The day Mimir asked about the moment of death.
Odin was able to answer without hesitation.
“I want to die as a warrior.”
Chichi chichichi-.
[The user’s magical power is insufficient.]
[The durability of ‘Gunggnir’ decreases rapidly.]
Gungnir, held in Odin’s hand, started to start.
There wasn’t much magical energy left. My physical strength was at its limit, and if my concentration was even slightly disturbed, I would lose consciousness and collapse on the spot.
“Not the king of Asgard. “As a warrior.”
Odin’s magic and the magic inherent in Gungnir combined to create a powerful wave of magic.
The attention of the Outers turned to Odin due to the unusual flow of magical power. They had already become alert to Gungnir after several previous trials.
but.
Gungnir was not something that could be avoided or blocked just because one was on guard.
“This is mine….”
Wow.
Holding my hand tightly.
“It’s the last window.”
Odin pulled his body like a bowstring.
The moment the spear was shot out of his hand.
[‘Gungnir’ starts up.]
Flash!
Gungnir’s light swallowed everything.
Tuhwaa-!
Everything caught in the white spear disappears. Gungnir was torn apart, and all the magical power contained within it was lost in one blow.
Woe!
The purple clouds covering the sky disappeared, and for a moment, the clearest starlight illuminated the ground.
beep-.
Tinnitus rang in Odin’s ears as he took a deep breath.
I felt my body slowly tilting to the side. As time passed slowly, my vision turned black and white and became dizzy.
dump-.
“I want to do my best and be burned on the most meaningful battlefield.”
Even though I lay down on the cold ground, a smile appeared on my face.
I felt like I could understand Mimir’s feelings at this moment of dying.
Perhaps he would have died the same death he wanted.
It was the same with myself.
‘Just one thing-.’
The tinnitus I heard in my ears gradually became quieter.
Then, naturally, a sound came from outside.
“Odin-!”
“Aaaah!”
“King Odin has fallen!”
“You’re wrong, you can’t win this…”
As he fell, the battlefield began to rapidly collapse.
The last battle fought as a warrior, not a king.
‘I’m worried about what comes next…’
Jeopuk-.
It was then.
Several feet approached Odin’s bedside.
In blurry vision.
Odin, who lifted his head with difficulty to check the owner of the foot, saw a familiar face in front of him.
Is it a flash of light or is it seeing nothing at the threshold of death?
I could clearly see the face of the guy who was known to be dead.
“Maybe I should have hurried a little more.”
A man with long golden hair and his whole body radiating majesty.
Another king of this tower. Ruler of Olympus.
Zeus.
He, who was said to have died in a fight with foolish Chaos, approached Odin.
no.
That wasn’t all.
“I couldn’t have been in more of a hurry.”
“Well, if you rush and come too quickly, it will be even more of a disaster.”
“The timing was right.”
Hercules, Kali, the Deva Varuna, and even his own son Loki.
It’s truly an incongruous combination that I’ve never even imagined.
‘What on earth happened….’
Jeopuk-.
And among them.
There were faces that were hard to believe even after seeing them.
Odin’s eyes slowly moved up from the man’s feet to his face.
Gray hair and slightly deeper wrinkles. There were some differences, but he was definitely…
‘Ahh…’
Odin soon made eye contact with him and silently opened his mouth and burst into laughter.
Mimir.
What on earth did that guy prepare by sacrificing his life? I was secretly sad that I left without knowing that.
Now I felt like I knew what he had prepared.
‘Was that something like that?’
The blurred vision did not return. The head that was raised with difficulty slowly fell down.
Now it was really time to rest.
Because the perfect stand-in has just arrived.
“…I envy you.”
Sigh-.
The man who said that stretched out his hand and closed Odin’s transparent, dead eyes.
With a complex expression, he looked at Odin, who smiled and closed his eyes, and continued speaking.
“You didn’t run away from here. “Unlike me.”
He had a face like Odin.
“You did well. Instead of running away, they stayed on this battlefield until we came.”
Hwaaaaa!
A group of pure white lights surrounded the battlefield.
The rankers who were engrossed in the fight were looking around, wondering what was going on.
Tick-.
A small sound of the second hand was heard in their ears:
tick, tick, tick.
Tick, tick, tick.
The sound of the second hand gradually getting louder. And at the end of that sound, time turned back.
Hwaaaaa!
In the cluster of lights, countless clockworks were intricately entangled and tangled. The chaotic time was connected without wavering by some force and created one straight path.
‘They’ have come across a time that has unfolded and turned upside down.
Hercules.
Cali.
Loki, Varuna, Helios, Persephone, Dragon King Chernovok…
and Odin.
Numerous rankers with the same names and faces as those living today suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
thud-.
Odin’s spear shook the earth. Their presence left a new mark on the land.
“now-.”
As if taking the place of Odin who died like that.
[The ‘King of Asgard’ commands the battlefield.]
He who came from the future has begun to demonstrate his godhood.
“We won’t fight.”
From present to future.
It was the moment when the baton was passed.
