Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 585
[Level Up with the Gods Side Story Episode 61]
* * *
Murim.
It is located on the 10th floor and is a world that has produced many rankers.
It was a place to first learn the basic concepts of martial arts, and each sect had several ranked ranks.
Gufileilbang and Odaese.
One of the most famous clans in Murim.
But no one denied who was the best.
Pak-.
“Haaap-!”
Players extending their fists.
They were players taking on the 10th floor exam and training on Mount Cheonsan.
“It’s spirit and spirit! “How can I gain strength in my fist if I start by making the sound quieter?”
“Haaaab-!”
“Sound is breathing, you bastards! Do you want to become strong just by shouting loudly?”
“Aaaah-!”
grasp-!
He wore a steel guard heavier than a stone on his arm and swung his fist with all his might.
It’s hard to even move your arms, but you’re fighting hard.
Some were lying on the floor with their fists outstretched, as if they had already fainted.
And the instructor looks at those players.
“Tsk. Weak things.”
Gwang Ha-muk, a member of the Heavenly Demon Church, clicked his tongue as if he was pathetic.
Most players who entered the Heavenly Demon Church could not last ten days.
Several times a day, I often lost consciousness and had to descend from exhaustion.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why so many players are coming to Cheonsan recently.
At some point, the Church of the Heavenly Demon opened its doors wide and drastically lowered the difficulty of the exam.
of course.
‘It doesn’t bother me.’
The passing rate is abysmal.
It was fortunate that 1 out of 100 people passed the test.
dump-.
One trainee who remained until the end collapsed in his seat.
My eyes were rolled back and my clothes were drenched as if I had been hit by a shower.
A situation where there are no more trainees to receive training.
“That’s all for today!”
Gwanghamuk looked at the trainee who held on until the end and shouted.
Gwanghamuk turned around like that.
As the distance grew to some extent, the voices of the fallen players could be heard in his ears.
“Ugh… this is so intense….”
“I’m really dying.”
“But let’s try to hold on.”
“All the guys who endured here and rose to the top have made a name for themselves, right?”
“Furthermore, these days, even large guilds are paying attention to people from the Heavenly Demon Church.”
There was only one reason why they took on the exam of the Church of the Heavenly Demon.
Success.
Those two letters were the entire reason why they came to this harsh and harsh Church of the Heavenly Demon.
“I want to somehow pass the test, but the training is difficult.”
Gwang Ha-muk shook his head as if he was pitiful.
His colleague So-cheon nodded.
“That’s right. No one came because they wanted to become strong.”
Among them, there were none who came purely because they wanted to learn the martial arts of the Heavenly Demon Church.
The first stage of the Heavenly Demon Church’s test.
It was truly disappointing to fail even the basic step of training one’s body to the extreme.
“Preparation for the next step . Is it over?”
“I’m ready, but I don’t know how many of them will come over.”
“At most there will be three people. At most there will be around one person.”
“I guess you’ll be the only one suffering again this time.”
Gwang Ha-muk and So-cheon came down the mountain while talking.
Both of them thought that the new players were all messed up.
‘Anyway, it’s strange.’
As he went down the mountain like that, Gwang Ha-muk felt a strange sense of discomfort again today.
‘Why were there no church members like this before then?’
Until about ten years ago, there was not a single player who passed the test of Heavenly Demon God.
‘I heard that the difficulty level was very different…’
The question was why the difficulty level suddenly went down like that.
Heavenly Demon God’s Church simply passed. They wouldn’t have lowered the difficulty just because there were no players doing it.
It was a question that came to mind every morning after the players finished training.
As
I was going down the mountain like that.
“Huh?”
Socheon suddenly stops walking.
Gwanghamuk stops and looks back at him.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Don’t you think there’s someone over there?”
“It’s probably not someone I don’t know, so who on earth…”
Gwang Ha-muk, who was talking as if it was nonsense, narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction So-cheon pointed. In the
dark forest even in the morning ,
he saw two people coming up from the bottom of the rough Cheonsan Mountain
. …It was real.”
Gwang Ha-muk looked at the two people’s movements.
A man with black hair, which is commonly seen in martial arts, and a woman with scarlet hair, whose face was half covered with a mask.
What was unusual was the woman’s beauty. Even though
more than half of her face was covered, her beauty was felt even here. It feels like it’s the only place in the gloomy Cheonsan Mountain where
flowers are blooming.
‘It’s a unique head.’
If there was a woman like that in Cheonsan, there was no way he wouldn’t have known about it.
Even if word got out, it probably would have spread right away
. Above all, it was strange that she
was a foreigner who had set foot in Cheonsan, the main mountain.
This was the headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Church.
Originally, the Heavenly Demon had given permission. No one could step in without it.
“There you two!”
Gwanghamuk called out to the two people and gestured.
“Come this way.”
It was quite an oppressive attitude.
His current position is the first examiner of the Heavenly Demon Church.
All players from outside the Heavenly Demon Church were under his management.
“we?”
“I guess so.”
The two people looked at each other and then approached Gwang Ha-muk and So-cheon.
Two people climbing the mountain like that.
Gwanghamuk looked at them and tilted his head.
“I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before…”
It was a familiar face.
Both of them felt the same way.
The woman with her face covered felt the same way, and so did the man next to her. It was
a strange sense of déjà vu.
And that was the feeling most people who encountered Yuwon felt.
And just in time.
‘What was your name?’
Yu-won was feeling the same way.
A face that seemed like he had seen it somewhere before.
As he looked at Gwang Ha-muk for a moment and remembered where he had met him, the test of the Heavenly Demon Church on the 10th floor came to Yu-won’s mind. ‘That’s right.
Gwang Ha-muk.’
The first man I met after entering the Church of the Heavenly Demon.
‘Even though he wasn’t a ranker, he seemed to have an aptitude for martial arts. Is he stopping here?’
Gwanghamuk was quite talented.
For some reason, he had joined the Heavenly Demon Church and was working for them, but if he started climbing the tower again, he would definitely be able to become a ranker.
“What is your name…”
Yuwon and Pandora’s Gwanghwamuk’s mouth stopped as he was about to ask his name.
“…is it?”
A question that came out unnaturally.
Because he was born in the Church of the Heavenly Demon and had been a part of it for a long time, Gwang Ha-muk rarely showed courtesy to someone first.
The Heavenly Demon Church is the strongest group in the martial arts world.
He thought that if he, a member of such a place, bowed his head first, the status of the Heavenly Demon Church would be lowered accordingly.
however.
‘what? how.’
Jureuk-.
As he faced the man in front of him, Gwang Ha-muk felt a completely different feeling than usual.
I felt as if I had come face to face with a great being that I could not dare to treat lightly.
‘Are you a ranker who has been in hiding? No, the energy I feel is insignificant. There’s no special threat.’
Less rattling-.
Gwanghamuk’s knees were shaking.
Unlike my head, my body was speaking.
Hurry up and kneel down and be polite to the man in front of you.
And now Yuwon knew the reason.
[The ‘Church of the Heavenly Demon Church’ scolds the rudeness of its member ‘
Gwang Ha-muk.’] [The ‘Church of the Heavenly Demon Church’ exercises leadership over everyone except the ‘Church of the Heavenly Demon Church’ within the ‘Church of the Heavenly Demon Church.’]
Quite a bit . A title I had forgotten about because I had not used it for a long time.
However, it was automatically manifested when he came to the Church of the Heavenly Demon and met Gwanghamuk.
‘This works even if you forget the name.’
Yuwon was also skeptical about this.
The leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.
A title acquired by passing the Heavenly Demon’s Test and obtaining the Flame of Tulcha, also called ‘Seonghwa’.
The question is whether the effect of that title will remain even now that names and faces have been forgotten.
however.
“Socheon of the Cult of the Heavenly Demon…”
He fluttered.
The player next to Gwang Ha-muk.
Socheon, an instructor from the Cult of the Heavenly Demon, knelt towards Yuwon.
“Greetings… I raise you.”
Even he didn’t know why he was like this.
He didn’t kneel down, but Gwang Ha-muk didn’t wave Socheon.
No, he couldn’t. Because
if he hadn’t knelt down, he would have done the same.
“Whew.”
Gwangha-muk took a deep breath and calmed down his shaking legs and rough breathing for a moment.
Then, he politely asked Yuwon and Pandora again.
“I am Gwangha-muk of the Church of the Heavenly Demon. Where are you from?”
There was no reason to forcefully reject one’s instincts.
Rather than showing unnatural words and actions, it was better to acknowledge and treat the other person.
“If you ask me where I’m from, I don’t have the right place to answer.”
“Are you saying you don’t belong to any guild?”
“Because it’s where I belong…”
Yuwon thought for a moment in response to Gwanghamuk’s question.
belong.
That was a pretty important issue for the players living in the tower.
Their position varies depending on which guild they belong to, and they usually introduce their guild more than their name.
so that.
“If you belong to one place, there is one.”
In the end, after meeting someone like this, Yuwon put aside his worries and made up his mind.
“Church of the Heavenly Demon.”
[Reveals ‘Title: Minor Cult of Heavenly Demon Church.’]
Hwaaaa!
The presence that had been holding its breath was revealed.
The vast Heavenly Mountain shook and welcomed the little owner.
Gwanghamuk knelt down at the majesty he felt from Yuwon.
When Yuwon intentionally revealed his title, his identity appeared in Gwanghamuk’s mind.
‘So Sojiaoju?’
I couldn’t make eye contact without permission until I gave permission.
The position of Sogyoju meant the successor to their god Cheonma and the actual second-in-command of the Cheonma God Church.
But a man I’ve never seen before claims to be the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.
‘There is no way the system can tell lies. Moreover, this majesty….’
Gwang Ha-muk barely raised his head and looked up at Yu Won.
‘Is this really our little god?’
Cheonma Shingyo was a religious group.
The one they worship as a god is the Heavenly Demon.
In other words, it was Cheon Mu-jin, the ruler of this heavenly mountain and the master of the Heavenly Demon Church.
And if the Yuwon in front of them is the successor to Cheon Mujin, it means that he will become their god.
And at least in Gwang Hamuk’s eyes, Yuwon never seemed to be lacking.
Sigh-.
“There is no need to kneel down. “Get up.”
Yuwon stretched out his hand towards Gwanghamuk and Socheon and helped them up.
With Yoo Won’s permission, Gwang Ha-muk stood up and asked with a nervous expression on his face.
“Are you really… our small religious leader?”
“for now.”
“You mean just for now?”
“I didn’t officially join the church. “All I have is a title.”
Gwang Hamuk’s expression became serious.
According to what he said, Yuwon was definitely the minor leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.
However, Yuwon, who was actually sitting there, said that he had no intention of joining the Heavenly Demon Church.
Gwang Ha-muk bit his lip.
What he was about to say from now on were rude words that should not have been dared to be spoken to Master Xiao.
“Where have you been all this time?”
“Why are you going to nag me for coming now?”
Gwang Ha-muk, who had hit the nail on the head, kept his mouth shut.
Yuwon shook his head as if he knew that would happen and moved his gaze to the top of Cheonsan Mountain.
“You won’t feel at ease if you say, ‘I’ll hear that from the Heavenly Demon.’”
Anyway, the place where the amusement park was headed was upwards.
It was the place where the gods of the Heavenly Demon Religion were located, located at the highest point of Mt. Cheon.
“Guide me.”
