The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 389

Chapter 112 Departure (4)

I looked into his eyes as if the warning had already ended.

“…Poseidon.”

In Greek mythology, he is a god who may be more famous than Zeus.

In Greek mythology, the most powerful gods are usually Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades.

Among them, Poseidon had the greatest influence on humans, partly because the sea, his domain, is inseparable from humans, and partly because the gods of Greek mythology tend to be modeled after their symbols.

Poseidon has the patience of the sea and the capriciousness of the waves. Although it seems contradictory at first glance, this means that his whimsy is not caused by emotions.

Poseidon’s whims are without reason. I just ‘just’ do it. Just as the waves crashing in the sea have no will.

In other words, he is the person with the worst compatibility with me.

‘Why is Poseidon here….’

From the moment I decided to sail through the sea, the presence of Poseidon crossed my mind.

However, in this world, the gods have already left for the world of salvation. Their power is realized through divine power, and advent requires places such as sanctuaries or temples and the faith of many people.

Even though the sea is Poseidon’s domain, it’s hard to believe that a god is sitting there without any sign in this vast sea.

‘Is it really a fantasy? No, that can’t be…’

At least the pressure I’m feeling right now can’t be faked. A similar feeling to when I met Rudra, one of Elodie’s divine powers.

If I fight now, what are the odds of winning?

If Belphegor, one of the Seven Sins, was at the level of Poseidon, he would probably be around 20%.

From the beginning, the probability of victory in the fight with Belphegor was below 50%. The only way I could take him down was to hit him accurately with high firepower, and if that failed, he would be dead.

But now this is not land, but the sea. It is Poseidon’s domain.

Of course, if I have to fight, I will fight, but I want to avoid it at all costs.

‘I also have a promise with Malia.’

A command not to do anything that might cause injury.

Of course, this is nonsense at the point where you have to fight Poseidon.

[Do you know me? human.]

Then Poseidon looked at me and asked.

I was surprised by that question.

‘…Poseidon doesn’t know me?’

This is not my first time meeting a god from Greek mythology.

I met Hephaestus, Edwin’s divine power, and later I met Hestia, Heldre’s divine power.

Hestia already knew me before I met her, and she told me that even the gods are at odds with each other.

So most gods would know me. But among all the gods, there is no Poseidon.

“Don’t you know me?”

I asked just in case.

Poseidon answered harshly.

[Should I remember one human being?]

You don’t know anything about me either. From what he says, it seems like no human is in Poseidon’s memories.

[Well, I guess it’s a good thing. Since you came this far despite my warning, it appears that the ship you are on is rudderless. I will return the bow myself.]

Kugugu-

Poseidon’s hand slowly rose. He pulled his hand back. It was like people spraying water on each other at a beach.

If a hand that size were to do something like that, of course the waves would become unbearable, and as Poseidon said, we would fly in the same direction we came from. Whether the ship will be okay is a question later.

Meanwhile, I quickly thought about it.

‘If you don’t know, how much do you know? ‘Isn’t Poseidon communicating with Olympus right now?’

If you can’t think of a solution, you have to fight. But until then, I want to come up with an answer somehow.

If you do well, you might be able to get through it without any major problems.

chuck-

“ah.”

The moment I had that thought, something caught my hand.

It was Mjolnir.

Until just a moment ago, I was thinking of a peaceful plan.

[…!]

Poseidon’s eyes opened wide.

I was embarrassed and spoke first.

“no. “This is not something I grabbed to fight.”

[Mjolnir!]

Poseidon shouted.

His eyes widened for a different reason than I thought.

‘Do you know Mjolnir?’

You don’t talk to the gods of Olympus, but you know Mjolnir, an item from Norse mythology and Asgard?

‘…No, you shouldn’t think like that.’

It is strange that Poseidon, the god of Olympus, is said to communicate with Asgard and not with Olympus. The distinction is incorrect.

Poseidon does not communicate with Asgard.

In the past, they communicated with anywhere, whether Olympus or Asgard, but now they do not communicate with anywhere.

‘That’s why it’s surprising that I’m holding Mjolnir. In his memories, this item will always belong to Thor.’

Plus, it might be surprising.

[How do humans control Mjolnir!]

That would be it.

It’s similar to Renzo’s reaction.

Of course, what Renzo showed at the time was just a trick. Mjolnir was fake, and they only manipulated it because it was Menosorpo’s domain.

But now it’s real.

I’m really dealing with Mjolnir now. Because Mjolnir allowed me.

“…We want to pass through this sea. That’s all.”

I spoke carefully after confirming that Poseidon’s hand had stopped.

However, Poseidon’s gaze was focused solely on the Mjolnir I was holding.

[Say. Why do you have Mjolnir?]

“….”

[I told you to speak!]

Kwaaaa!!

Suddenly my stomach churned. A sudden change of waves without any warning. It is the power of God.

“Elodie!”

I shouted, and at the same time made wings out of black cloth and flew up.

The waves rose to unusual heights. From the neck down to Poseidon looking down at us.

Whick!

Poseidon immediately brought the rising waves down in an instant. A ship suddenly floating in the air will fall violently due to gravity.

“──‘Moon’.”

Inies does not allow that.

Duung!

The ship floated in the air without crashing.

The huge ship slowly sank at a slow pace due to Elodie’s single comment.

Meanwhile, I flew up and was eye level with Poseidon.

“Calm down. “Poseidon.”

I spoke to him politely.

However, Poseidon only repeated his words.

[How did you get that Mjolnir?]

I still didn’t answer.

I know this will anger Poseidon, but it’s pretty much the only bargaining chip I have right now.

In addition, it is also a means of finding out what kind of situation Poseidon is currently in.

If you just let things happen, you may save your life, but you can’t go any further.

‘I don’t even know why Poseidon is here right now. How much he understands the situation, and if so, whether he will be an enemy or an ally.’

So there is only one thing to do here.

We must let Poseidon tell us the information himself. The information has to come out of Poseidon’s mouth while at the same time not letting him know I want it.

To do that,

“…Would you like to guess?”

[What?]

“Because it’s not a question I can answer.”

I said.

It was truly a life-threatening statement.

If you take this as a provocation, it will become an unavoidable fight.

Unless it is.

[…Hoo.]

The strong waves subside.

The boat landed on the surface of the water and settled in peace.

[Seeing him say that even in this situation, I guess there’s something there.]

Poseidon suddenly spoke in a quiet tone, wondering where his previous momentum had gone.

…His whims will be like waves.

Indeed, he is a whim that makes your heart tremble.

[I knew that Thor placed Mjolnir on the continent. So it’s not strange for it to fall into human hands. However, I don’t understand why Mjolnir follows human orders…]

Poseidon said that and then looked into my eyes.

[From the looks of it, I’m not receiving any of his divine powers.]

“…That’s right.”

I nodded at him, saying that what he said was absolutely correct. So that Poseidon can imagine freely.

[Is that right?]

Poseidon said as if he soon realized.

[Thor gave you Mjolnir! Mjolnir knows that and follows your words!]

“…!”

My eyes widened there.

The point is to neither confirm nor deny.

[And Thor silenced you. Don’t reveal the fact that I gave you Mjolnir. That’s why even when he came to this situation, he kept his mouth shut in front of me.]

…aha.

That’s how this situation appears in Poseidon’s eyes.

‘For Poseidon, isn’t it so strange for Thor to give Mjolnir to a human?’

At least Thor is cooperative with humans to that extent.

Or so Poseidon thinks.

If so─

“…It is indeed Poseidon.”

I bowed my head.

Poseidon’s face brightened as if he was satisfied with that.

[It’s arrogant of you to remain silent in front of me, but I can understand if it’s a promise to God. Also, you trusted me to figure out the answer on my own. He is a bold human being.]

Rather than believing it, I was hoping to find some answer.

“Forgive my rudeness. “The promise I made to Thor was more important to me than anything else.”

…I can already imagine what expressions Elodie and the others below would make when they heard what I said.

[Yes, that’s what it was. That’s why he didn’t back down despite my warning and came all the way here. It was not a warning that was ignored, but a ‘pilgrimage’ that risked one’s life.]

“I took a ship from the Empire to here under Thor’s orders. However, we are very ignorant now. We know that our actions have offended Poseidon. Please forgive me.”

[No, that is not ignorance. It was an action that took a lot of risk. We have always called it courage. It’s one of the things that God can never win over humans.]

Suddenly, Poseidon is speaking like a teaching from mythology.

While I was doing it, I said.

“We received an oracle that from the continent we live on, another continent will emerge after passing this sea. The road ahead was difficult and scary, but I was able to get here safely under God’s care. But I didn’t know that Poseidon would be there. “Please forgive me for not saying a prayer first.”

[I understand. Etius does not know of my existence.]

“How is it that today’s humans have forgotten Poseidon’s location? “How can you be so foolish?”

I just ask politely and gently.

Poseidon said to him:

[You may not know this, but humans have a history of rebellion. We called it ‘Ragnarok’.]

“…History of rebellion….”

[But it failed.]

“This is truly fortunate.”

It was a lie that made me feel like my insides were twisted.

[What does the failure of the rebellion mean?]

“…As a humble person, I don’t know.”

[It’s a simple thing.]

As if my politeness and politeness were working well, Poseidon spoke cheerfully.

[It means that not all gods left this earth.]
