Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 377
Episode 377
[What is it, our cutie? Why is your expression like that?]
Same as usual.
Odin asked in a cheerful voice.
[….]
[…?]
Odin tilted his head at Brünnhild’s attitude without an answer.
Brünnhild’s skills are at the highest level among the Valkyrie commanders.
Until now, no matter how unreasonable orders were given, she had always followed them.
[You wouldn’t feel the burden of refusing a visit from an absolute person from another heaven, would you?]
Brünnhild opened his mouth in response to Odin’s interrogation, which was not an interrogation.
[The master of the 10 heavens said. It is said that she visited in connection with the news of the Valkyrie corps commanders dispatched to the underworld.]
[….]
Odin was speechless for a moment at her words.
Gunne Skal Eir.
They are all Valkyries with the rank of corps commander and have shared life and death with Brünnhild, and they are subordinates whom Odin also cherishes dearly.
If it weren’t for the faithful Valkyries, if it weren’t for the exceptional Valkyrie Corps Commanders who commanded them.
The seven heavenly realms were also going through a civil war.
The three Valkyrie commanders disappeared side by side in the underworld.
Since the ‘Rune of Life’ shared by the corps commanders does not work, it is safe to consider the situation as death.
In the meantime, someone who knew the news about the corps commanders came to visit?
He is also the new master of the heavenly world.
There was no reason to refuse.
The smile disappeared from Odin’s face.
[Bring it.]
[Your name.]
Brünnhild answered politely, “Just for a moment.”
Ssssssut.
A man appeared through the installed portal.
A man with impressive red hair and odd blue and yellow eyes.
Osiris, who was newly crowned as the master of the 10 heavens, had a polymorph appearance.
[How have you been, Master of the Seven Heavens?]
Osiris greeted him as if he were greeting an old friend.
[I heard a while ago that he had become the master of the 10 heavens.]
There was no mischievous appearance in Odin’s face when he spoke with Brünnhild.
He is treating guests as the owner of the heavenly world.
[Anyway, the being called the Grand Wizard of the Upper World is very uninterested in his neighbors. If you had helped, the 10 heavenly realms would have been entirely mine.]
Osiris mentioned the past when he asked for help to defeat ‘Ra’, who was the previous owner of the 10 heavenly realms.
Odin has a fanatical hobby of collecting runes and Valkyries, but his skills are such that even other heavenly masters can surpass him.
[If only I had your help.]
Instead of dividing the Obelisk and the 10 Heavenly Realms into two, as I do now, I would have taken complete control of the Obelisk and built a close relationship with the 7 Heavenly Realms.
Osiris said something plausible.
[Open your hands to other heavens… Are you still thinking such foolish thoughts?]
[….]
[Look at ‘La’. Even though I suffered such humiliation from you, I never begged for help. You mutant lizard.]
Odin snapped, not hiding his disgusted expression.
[How rude]
Contrary to what he said, Osiris was smiling.
This is because he knows Odin’s eccentric personality well as he has been lending a helping hand for a long time.
[How long are you going to treat me like a child? The position of the master of the 10 heavens is not soft enough to be that angry.]
[Hmph. Still, it seems more plausible than before.]
It was a while to observe the growth.
Odin opened his mouth again.
[Yes, Osiris. Lord of the usurped throne. Do you have something to say to me?]
[I haven’t even brought up this matter yet.]
[Don’t you think I’m doing my job well just by being your partner?]
Osiris opened his mouth, listening to Odin’s words.
[Law of the Abyss. We need a way to fake the curse created by the King of the Underworld. I think you might have a way.]
[You need to know that topic. If you are asking for a favor, you should bow your head first.]
The rune that Odin was holding radiated brilliance and changed into the shape of a spear.
Osiris recognized its power and made Odd Eye shine.
[Holy Spear Longinus. Indeed, the feeling of intimidation is on a different level from what the Valkyries imitate. They are saddened by the news about the Valkyries sent to the Underworld.]
[….]
There was silence.
The Spear of Longinus in Odin’s hand.
The brilliance surrounding the place trembled as if it might explode at any moment.
[It is not difficult to destroy you.]
[I will not deny it.]
This is Odin’s territory.
Osiris, as a supreme being, will not give up his life easily, but like all masters, it is inevitable that he will have the upper hand in his domain.
[You’re too confident for something like that.]
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Radiance surrounded Osiris.
If you put your mind to it, you can cut it to pieces.
But think about that for a moment.
Sssssssssssssssss.
As the Spear of Longinus disappeared, its brilliance also faded.
From the beginning, I had no intention of engaging in a battle without reason.
Unlike ‘Ra’, I just planned to scratch Osiris’s pride and start negotiations.
[This is indeed the attitude of the absolute best in the 7 heavens.]
[If it is pretense, get rid of it.]
The absolute.
It was a title granted only to those chosen among the Elyos of the Upper World.
They all had the power to target the master of each heaven, and the current master of the heavens wanted to strengthen his power by having them as his subordinates.
[Well, aren’t we also imperfect beings? Our true ‘King’ is still missing.]
Osiris mentioned Baal, the King of the Upper World.
[The King of Underworld’s whereabouts are unknown as well. More than that, I want to know about my cute subordinates, right?]
Odin did not use the words ‘last’ or ‘death’.
[You also have an impatient personality. Well, anyway, if you find out the truth, you will have no choice but to cooperate.]
Srrrrr.
Odd Eye flashed and a subspace portal was created.
Let Osiris stretch out his hand.
Wow.
A bluish magic stone came out from there and I caught it in my hand.
Odin easily caught the magic stone thrown by Osiris.
[It is a magic stone of the underworld. The memory you want is recorded there.]
[Magic stone? How do you do this?]
[Isn’t the important thing what’s inside?]
[…]
It’s not wrong.
Radiance emanated from Odin’s hand.
The rune of insight was used.
The memories contained in the magic crystal that rejected the brilliance were vomited out.
[…!!]
Odin’s body twitched slightly as the memories unfolded.
Before his eyes, the Archduke is said to be the greatest force in the lower world.
Surprisingly, three of them are gathered in one place and fighting.
Rosaria, the queen of nightmares.
Vampire Lord Igmun.
Demon Sea King Jormungand.
If they had existed in the upper world, they were monsters whose existence power transcended their natural class and would have earned the title of absolute being.
Is there a turf war going on?
Odin thought so as he watched their battle.
Even though Rosaria and Jormungand were attacking together as if it were Igmun’s territory, Igmun was destroying them.
At first glance, Skaarl was on the verge of death from Igmun’s blood sword, and Gunne and Eir were engaged in a battle with the five who appeared to be Igmun’s highest species.
False Spear of Longinus.
Even though they took out the most powerful weapon they could use in the underworld.
The monsters took Skal’s life and were even chasing Gunne and Eir.
It was a look that they should not have seen in their normal lives.
[The damn restrictions are at work.]
Odin clicked his tongue and cursed the laws of the Abyss created by the King of the Underworld.
Of course, if it weren’t for that curse, those so-called great dukes wouldn’t have been able to fight with their power limited.
During that battle, there was one person who particularly stood out.
A polymorph, a being who was born human rather than maintaining a humanoid form.
[Is this the key chosen by the Underworld King?]
Odin immediately recognized its presence.
Surprisingly, I could feel pieces of runes on the guy’s body.
That too, Gunne Eir Skal.
It belongs to all three Valkyrie Corps commanders.
When Odin gave Osiris a look demanding an explanation, he shrugged.
[Kim Tae-hyun. It looks like they’re running quite amok in the underworld. Even the so-called archdukes seem to be having a hard time. They are also recognized by the Valkyries you care about.]
[Those children?]
Kim Tae-hyun’s presence as he entered recovery was growing bigger and bigger, and before he knew it, it had reached a level where he could be compared to the Valkyries.
And suddenly.
Jormungand self-destructed.
Afterwards, Rosaria, who was left alone, began to emit even stronger power.
It seemed like it could not be a match for Igmun and would just disappear.
No, more accurately, it would be sealing, not extinction.
One of the things where the Law of the Abyss is strongly applied is the loss of large-scale supply existence.
Unlike Jormungand, which was not the main body.
Igmun would not be able to destroy Rosaria.
That’s what I thought.
Kyaang.
Kim Tae-hyun, the key to the King of the Underworld, intervened.
The guy wielding the thunder sword summoned the giant king Typhon.
[Hoo.]
I can’t believe I’m already dealing with two archdukes.
Odin reacted as if he was intrigued by the power beyond his expectations.
Human inferiority is fully recognized even in the upper world, where people cannot travel to Earth in person.
The Earth where the Underworld King is from.
A distant past.
In order to win or lose the racial war, we studied the creatures there countless times.
There was only one conclusion.
A creature inferior to the monsters of the underworld.
We only found out that the King of the Underworld was merely a variable created by God’s prank.
I’m sure that’s the case.
Even though he is a great duke whose ancient power has been sealed by the laws of the Abyss.
Like humans.
The main body’s archduke was crossing his swords.
The battle became heated and Kim Tae-hyun pushed Ig-moon to the brink of defeat.
The final scene recorded by the magic stone was the death of the other two Valkyries by Igmun’s blood sword.
[at last. It was this guy who killed the cuties.]
Odin frowned as if he had seen a picture he didn’t like.
Excuse me.
This guy is the one who killed countless Valkyries in several racial wars.
Of course, his Valkyries cut down more vampires, but that didn’t matter.
[A failure created by God, without even knowing the subject.]
[Are you planning to kill me? It’s better not to look at the archdukes too easily.]
[The archdukes of today are all not that great anyway.]
[Queu. That’s a lot of confidence. The trick that the King of the Underworld performed is not far away. Now, let’s hear the answer.]
Osiris requested that he procure a rune that could deceive the laws of the Abyss.
Odin shook his head.
[It is impossible right now. But if there is enough time, there is nothing that cannot be done.]
[Of course, there are conditions, right?]
[You have a habit of saying the obvious without thinking. Share the information you collect under the sun. Then, I will support any number of runes.]
Osiris’ Odd Eye became thin like a snake.
[Hehehe. I’m saying we should take on all the risks here.]
[You don’t like it?]
[That’s impossible.]
The 10 Heavenly Realms and the 7 Heavenly Realms.
It was the moment when the two masters of the heavenly world formed an alliance.
* * *
A battle fought between King Sanggye and King Hagye.
It was like the power of two giants colliding.
At the end of the conflict.
[Did I lose again this time?]
The man who chose Taehyun as the key.
The Underworld King spoke in a self-deprecating voice.
King Sanggye burst into laughter.
[summer season. There is nothing we can do about the limitations of class.]
[….]
[I propose once again. How about hunting down gods together?]
