Leveling with the Gods

Chapter 490

“That face has a lot of stories.”

Son Oh Gong again took out an unknown fruit and put it in his mouth.

He stared YuWon in the face and asked wonderfully.

“Or is he hiding something?”

I thought there was no change in facial expression.

YuWon made eye contact with Son Oh Gong, and Hercules. Even though he had been carrying Hwaan Geumjeong for more than a thousand years and did not use his skills, he was quite keen.

But I can’t even say nonsense here.

“What did I do?”

When asked back by shameless YuWon, Son Oh Gong opened his eyes and asked.

“That thing from before.”

Fortunately, what Son Oh Gong asked was not about Zeus.

“What the hell was it? No, who was it?”

“Oh, that.”

I was going to say that if it was.

“You know the kid I used to take with me?”

“Maple? The one with the weird name?”

“Uh.”

“…do you really think it’s him?”

In Son Oh Gong’s head came the image of autumn leaves sticking to YuWon’s side.

The same was true of Hercules.

He was like a little doll the size of a palm of his hand at first. He grew up a little, but he looked only three to four years old.

I can’t believe that’s the guy that just got in YuWon’s body.

“What I saw was a little different.”

“Technically, it’s a little different. What it looks like, what it’s strength, what it’s name.”

“But why?”

“It’s true that autumn leaves are part of him.”

There wasn’t much to say about Azatos.

YuWon still needs to know more about him.

However, it was certain that his existence was a bomb.

“…Are you all right?”

“What?”

“You said this wasn’t the first time.”

YuWon has been through something similar a few times.

In the fight against Shub Niguras. And in the fight against Tulcha, YuWon had someone else on his body.

Fall foliage said clearly.

It’s gonna be dangerous.

Perhaps this was what he was talking about as a “risk.

but

“I knew his name.”

But there was a change.

“It won’t be the same as before.”

Name

So far YuWon has not been very aware of its importance.

But now I know.

What kind of power does your name has.

Where it came from, who it came from.

Now that I know that, I’m sure it’s different.

“Azatos.

When he first heard the name through Pandora, YuWon didn’t feel so unfamiliar.

I’m sure I’ve heard of this name.

Azatos was the very name that the autumn leaves mumbled about.

‘If I could make this name mine–‘

Azatos.

Azatos.

Azatos…….

I engraved the name again and again inside. As if the autumn leaves did.

‘We can win this fight.’

For the first time in YuWon’s head, a winning battle was depicted.

* * *

Tadak, tadak-.

The time when everyone fell asleep.

Hercules was sitting still in his seat.

Son Oh Gong filled his stomach and went straight to sleep. He snored so much that Pandora, who was listening to the sound, blocked Son Oh Gong’s nostrils with her fingers.

Hercules also needs a break.

It was the first time I felt so discharged. Beyond the mana of the whole body, the body felt heavy as if it had consumed a lot of water.

“Everyone’s sleeping.”

Hercules, who was looking down at the bonfire, looked up at the sudden voice.

It was YuWon.

“If you have something to say, say it.

“What do you want to say?”

“That’s Zeus.”

Hercules’ eyes, which were as lifeless as the dead, shook.

Zeus

The name shook Hercules’ insides.

but

“I have nothing to say.”

Hercules hid himself this time, just as he did for Foolish Chaos.

YuWon briefly clicked his tongue as if he knew it.

It wasn’t that I didn’t expect him to come out like this.

“There should be.”

“I can’t believe you don’t have one.”

“I’ve heard it once before, but I’ll listen to it again.

I had nothing to say.

YuWon already knew how Hercules felt about Zeus. He was an opponent who could not be deceived even if he tried to.

Hercules sighed for a long time.

“I hate my father.”

“I hated my father.”

The time was different, but it was the same person too.

The same was true of the words that followed.

“My mother died because of his plan. How can you like it?”

Hercules’ mother, Alkmene.

Zeus didn’t love her for a second.

“My father didn’t love anyone. Neither my mother nor me.”

“Yeah, that’s why you abandoned Zeus. As a son, as a father.”

“Darn it. You know it well.”

An awkward swear word popped out of my mouth.

It’s the second time I’ve been cursed by Hercules.

Perhaps the reason for the same curse in the same situation is because there is nothing better to express Hercules’ feelings than that.

“That’s right. I abandoned my father then. I can’t forgive you. So we fought.”

Hercules remembered the day when he first fought Zeus.

Breaking the Olympus.

The day when Poseidon, Hades, and YuWon joined forces to fight Zeus.

Now I feel absolutely ridiculous, considering how I fought the fight.

That day, Hercules truly intended to kill Zeus.

But I couldn’t.

It was because of Asgard’s intervention.

“I tried not to pay attention later. I dragged my father down with my hands, so let’s stop now. I thought I’d be a stranger.”

Hercules was naturally calling Zeus his father.

Like the old days again.

“But my father kept looking at me. I was created by my father. I was born and I was called a bloody hero in Gitomacia, and I inherited this power.”

You’re right, you’re right.

Hercules’s hand splashed with fire.

Originally, he did not use any skills other than giant paintings. He had mana but did not have any attributes, so Hercules became one of the most powerful men in the tower.

Then Zeus’ thunderstorm was delivered to him.

Zeus only completed Hercules with it.

“It’s ridiculous, isn’ That’s a father.”

He makes a son to satisfy his greed. In the process, Zeus gave Hercules no consideration.

The affection that should be given as a father. The respect you deserve as a person.

But Zeus and Hercules were different.

“My father did not love me nor my mother. But…….”

Hercules, who was speaking at the end of his speech, shook his head.

“But it seems that my father was still my father. When I see this feeling,”

Blood vessels, family, son, father.

A relationship that began with the birth has a magic that is not easily broken.

Hercules was going to cut it off.

I couldn’t cut it off in the end.

‘Good or stupid.’

Zeus, known to the world, was definitely a great king.

He founded Olympus with Hades and Poseidon, and helped to secure the safety of players and residents by pioneering various parts of the tower.

But he was a great king and never a great father.

Hercules had no reason to grieve over Zeus’ death, if anyone else knew.

“But I’m feeling better now that I’ve said it. It’s much better.”

“If so, yes.

“…….”

Tadak, snap.

Hercules is speechless again.

The two looked down at the bonfire for a while again. Perhaps it will take some time to relieve the complexity.

During that time, YuWon intended to be next to Hercules.

Drum-.

Son Oh Gong’s snoring that can be heard far away.

In the distance, Hargan woke up and heard Son Oh Gong’s snoring pained.

YuWon grinned at the funny situation following a serious conversation. Hercules also smiled in vain.

And then suddenly.

‘But it’s weird.’

YuWon recalled a fact that he had forgotten.

I turned my head and looked back at Son Oh Gong. Son Oh Gong was caught by Pandora’s collar and still didn’t wake up.

If Zeus died here, why is he over there?’

* * *

The sky covered in purple.

Under it, Odin’s face was dimmed on a small pond on the blackened ground.

“Mimir, that guy…….”

He, whose hair turned white, grabbed the fishing rod and murmured discontently.

“What the hell are you doing to make me do this here?”

Odin looked at the fishing rod in his hand.

It was a relic of Vishnu who failed to return from the fight against “Foolish Chaos”.

A month after Kim YuWon went back to the past.

Mimir, who suddenly woke up, asked Odin.

“Where’s Vishnu’s fishing rod?”

“Fishing rod? Why are you looking for it?”

“Take it and hurry to the nearest pond. Go fishing.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Don’t say anything……..”

Perhaps she was forced to wake up from her sleep, but Mimir went to sleep.

Has he ever been so forced to wake up?

If you woke up for a while in resistance to the curse of knowledge, there must be a good reason.

It’s been months since I came to the pond with the fishing rod that Vishnu left behind.

“That’s boring.”

“It looks like it.”

That’s right.

Odin’s back came a popularity.

It was quite a loud footsteps. He approached Odin’s side and sat down.

It was Hercules.

“How’s your fishing going?”

“I don’t know. What the hell am I supposed to fish in a pond where no fish lives?”

“But the other guys must be jealous of you. Is it easy to go fishing in a world like this?

“I’m not doing it because I want to.”

“Really?”

Hercules picked up any stone and threw it into the pond.

The stone flew quite far and bounced on the surface dozens of times, regardless of whether it was thrown lightly.

“It’s been about half a year since Kim YuWon died.”

“Half a year? Has it already been that long since I’ve been fishing here?”

“I guess you’re losing track of time because you’re spending your free time.”

“Really?”

It wasn’t a very interesting conversation. Hercules wasn’t the one who was funny.

However, Odin seemed to be having a conversation with someone for the first time in a long time, and even this conversation was very interesting.

“Next up is Son Oh Gong.”

Odin frowned at Hercules’ words.

“Not you?”

“That’s what happened.”

“The monkey is very anxious.”

The guy who’s going back to the past after Kim YuWon.

The candidate was rightly mentioned as one of Son Oh Gong and Hercules. Since the number of candidates decreased from three to two in the first place, there were only two left.

Personally, Odin recommended Hercules. But Hercules actually recommended Son OhGong, and the next runner was Son OhGong.

“He’ll be better than me.”

“It’s because I’m not confident to fight Zeus when I get back.”

“No denial.”

“I’m going to the ground. Tsk.”

Still unhappy about sending Son Oh Gong, Odin swerved away from Hercules.

Surely Son Oh Gong is definitely strong, but there was a bomb-like edge to where it might go. Hercules knows that, but he believed YuWon who went first.

“Anyway, I’m going to send Son Oh Gong as soon as Mimir wakes up. It will be about a month from now, so you should say goodbye before that.”

“Even so, I was thinking about whether I should stop this tedious fishing. What do you mean…….”

Fang-.

It was then.

Vishnu’s fishing rod, which had been unresponsive for months, had a signal.

“You’re caught?”
