Leveling with the Gods

Chapter 426

* * *

Valhalla Castle was in sight.

A distance that looks like it’s going to arrive a few more steps away. But Vishnu wasn’t doing that.

It was because of an uninvited guest.

“…what is it?”

“Just, I have something to tell you.”

I met Kim YuWon yesterday.

Looking at him, Vishnu sighed and shook his head.

“This doesn’t mean that what’s going to happen doesn’t happen.”

“I know, fate can’t be reversed.

That’s what Vishnu used to say all the time.

It is impossible to change the fate already set. The only way to change the fate that has been decided into the future is to change what has already happened, the past.

Therefore, the only way to change the future is the clockwork. YuWon has heard it more than ten times.

“But you don’t know everything, do you?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Just because it’s going to happen doesn’t mean I can’t let go.”

Ging-.

YuWon’s eyes are golden.

Vishnu’s eyes opened wide as he met them. The moment he made eye contact, he realized that YuWon had seen the same thing as him.

“Let’s try our best.”

“……Did you see it, too?”

Precognitive eye.

An eye with transcendent power, entering a different time line and seeing the future.

With those eyes, it was possible to see fate like Vishnu.

No.

Perhaps it can be verified much more accurately.

“Then you’ll know even more. There’s no other way.”

YuWon didn’t answer.

Frustrated, Vishnu sighed and looked up at the sky.

“There will be a disaster.”

The sky is still blue.

But this might also be today.

“To stop it…….”

“There’s no other way?”

It’s like that.

YuWon’s head turned.

“You’re here.”

A small height that can only reach one’s waist.

With a lollipop in his mouth, a child walked behind YuWon.

“Another way.”

“Is that him? What you said.”

An old-fashioned way of speaking that doesn’t match a child’s appearance.

When all the waiting guests were gathered, YuWon finally brought up the words he had been saving.

“The three of you shouldn’t get together.”

“You’re saying strange things as I’ve heard.”

Chuck, chuck-.

Brahma came close to YuWon.

He was a cute little boy, but he was more inscrutable than Vishnu or Shiva.

“Why are they stopping us?”

“The three of you were originally one, right?”

Brahma’s eyes narrowed.

He doesn’t seem surprised.

When I first heard YuWon, I was expecting this much.

Sneak-.

YuWon took out the player kit he had in his arms.

There were countless names and numbers on the kit’s screen. It was the ranking of each ranker managed by the Ranking Management Bureau.

[1st place : ?][2nd place : Odin][3위 : Vishnu][4th : Zeus][…….]

From 1st to 100th.

The names and rankings of the rankers were displayed. And among them, YuWon zoomed in on one person’s ranking and pointed with his finger.

“Here it is.”

[1st place : ?]

Rankings that have never changed during the tower’s long history.

Unchanging number one, not even the great king of Asgard.

“It’s you, isn’t it?”

It was Deva’s three deities.

“One and three. Three and one. It’s a story that’s now forgotten and old, only the administrators and the administrators know.”

“Two more people know.”

At Brahma’s words YuWon looked at him.

Brahma replied to YuWon’s expression, “Who is it?”

“Odeen and Mimir.

“Really?”

The two of them knew about Deva’s old myths.

‘Cause I don’t know everything.’

It wasn’t an important story anyway.

What matters now was the story of Vishnu and three others.

“Did Odin tell you?”

For Brahma, it was well deserved to be misunderstood.

Odin and Mimir are the only ones who know stories about themselves. And YuWon and Odin had quite a few points of contact.

but

“We shouldn’t have gotten back together.”

It was Vishnu himself who told YuWon this story.

“It doesn’t matter how you found out.”

“No. It’s important to us…….”

“What matters now is who takes the initiative.”

One of the eyes of Brahma wriggled at YuWon’s words.

“Leading?”

“How long has it been since one was divided into three?”

“What?”

Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?

And soon.

As if he were measuring a long, long time, he looked troubled.

then

“It must have been a little over 10,000 years.”

Vishnu, who finished thinking first, gave the answer.

one’s declining years

It was a long time that was not easy to measure even if the ranker had no limitations on life expectancy.

Deva was probably founded around the same time.

“It’s been a long time.”

“But that’s what…….”

“What do you think Shiva’s been doing for thousands of years?”

Vishnu and Brahma did not answer YuWon’s question.

It was natural.

“How much do you know about each other?”

They didn’t know anything about each other.

* * *

Odin arrived at the conference room and was silent for a moment.

While looking for YuWon, I found other faces out of office.

There is no Vishnu, no Brahma.’

Glance-.

Odin’s eyes saw Shiva sitting in a corner.

Shiba with her arms crossed and moving her fingers as if she didn’t like something.

It seemed to be waiting for the other two.

‘No, I don’t.’

It wasn’t a situation that I didn’t understand.

It wasn’t that we didn’t know what would happen when the three of us got together.

But since it’s a seat, I just thought about two out of three people would show up.

“What are you thinking about for so long?”

The seat closest to the top seat.

At Zeus’s urging to get started, Odin nodded.

“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting so long.”

“It is natural that the main character appears last. I’m not sorry.”

Zeus answered Odin in a friendly way like an old friend.

This was not the first time I had a face-to-face conversation with him. Odin and Zeus had met face to face several times as the head of a giant guild representing the tower.

But I don’t know.

Odin had never been wary of or kept away from him during those many encounters.

In the first place, he did not see him as someone who was on par with him.

‘You’ve changed a lot.’

Now, he had no shortage to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

No.

Now, as Mimir said, he might be looking higher than himself.

“Well, let’s talk about why we’re here.”

The beginning of a full-fledged story.

After Odin’s declaration, there was a man who opened his mouth as if he had been waiting.

“We’re the first ones to come in.”

A man sitting silently with his arms crossed on one side, with a fierce look on his face.

Asura.

He gave a speculative look.

Let’s do that.

“Is that, like, a passive skill to live with? All I’m saying is let’s fight when I open my mouth.”

“I mean. Do you think this is where he lived?….”

“The leader of the pack is quiet right now.

“Yes, the ranking is much higher for Asura…….”

The murmur of the audience at Asura’s words.

If it was a different place, it was a place of great guild harmony.

Like Asura, high rankers in the top 100 will gather there.

Even he, who came to fight after receiving an invitation, could not be active here alone.

Furthermore

“It’s impossible.”

The opinion that Asura said was unacceptable in the first place.

“You can’t beat him with your skills.”

“What the hell?”

Asura’s eyebrows wriggled at Zeus’s words.

a blatant life

Zeus shook his head, kicking his tongue as if he were pathetic to live with that gaze.

“Diablo or you, this is why the crazy ones in the fight…….”

“Once I fell from the throne. Now that you’ve come up, you think the whole world is yours.”

Yeah.

One of Asura’s heads appeared outside.

A word referring to him who entered the tower from a long time ago.

Triceps.

One of the heads was revealed.

“Now you’re struggling with only two heads left.”

“Shut up and come out.”

“If it’s a fight, I’ll do it for you later.”

“Not later…….”

“You don’t know anything about him.”

Asura, who was halfway up from his seat at Zeus’s words, sat down again.

An interesting story has been told, and Zeus has no intention of fighting right now.

In the first place, Asura didn’t like to force a fight with an opponent who wasn’t willing to fight.

“Then tell me. Who the hell was he?”

Most of the rankers here didn’t see Shub Niguras in person.

Most of the time, I just saw a picture taken by someone through the kit, and I was told it happened.

Nevertheless, they were alert because even Odin, who was right in front of them, could not stop them from coming from outside the tower.

“You don’t have to try so hard to know.”

It was Odin who broke off the war of nerves between Zeus and Asura.

“We’ll see each other soon anyway.”

“……?”

Like what does that mean?

All eyes were on Odin.

Odin was looking at Zeus.

Their eyes met. And at that moment, Zeus realized Odin was thinking the same thing as him.

Sure enough.

“First, I’ll say I’m sorry to everyone.”

Sneak-.

Odin bowed his head.

Most were surprised. Asgard’s king, known as the greatest Ranker of all time, bowed in front of so many people.

Odin, who raised his head again, brought up the story he had hidden inside.

“Today, this is not a place for harmony.”

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Shaking, shivering-.

Just in time.

The ceiling of Valhalla Castle shook, and the pen on the round table of the conference hall rolled down.

“I’m here today to fight with everyone.”

“To fight?”

“With whom?”

There were people whose eyes glistened.

Asura and the clique of the pack. High rankers thirsty for the fight itself, including them.

Odin’s words were of considerable interest to them, who had little interest in boring harmony.

“I’ve been thinking since I fought it. Jecheondaeseong, Zeus, even thousands of rankers. How can we deal with the existence that was all we had to do together and drive them out again?”

-Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

It’s very far away.

The crying from the end of the world.

Squeeze.

Odin’s fist was tightened by itself at the cry.

“Asgard alone was not enough. Not even close. One, with everyone here, I thought it was worth a shot.”

Shub Niguras.

The god outside the tower, doing countless goats.

To defeat it, we had to borrow the power of the rankers outside Asgard.

“I lied to everyone.”
