Leveling with the Gods

[Level Up with God Side Story Episode 88]

* * *

The giant flame giant was a nightmare for Asgard.

The king of Muspelheim who fought against Odin.

Surtur, the strongest giant and the worst demon, had his entire body covered in flames.

Hwa-rak-!

Flames soared from the giant’s body.

The fist hit the ground and the golden star shook.

Ujikkeun-!

The ground caved in.

Hercules withstood the giant’s fist and opened his eyes.

‘It’s different from what I heard from that monkey.’

Before coming here.

Goku shared information about the manager with Hercules through his alter ego.

“manager? That wasn’t a big deal. “When I hit him like this, he fell down.”

He was a guy who always seemed a bit strong.

There must have been quite a bit of leap in what he said.

But even taking that into account.

‘…It’s definitely not that bad.’

The manager he confronted was said to be the manager on the 20th floor.

If the level of managers varies depending on the floor, it would be a fairly low level manager.

It is understandable that Son Goku was able to subdue him without much difficulty.

then.

“What floor are you on?”

Hercules asked, embracing the giant’s body with both arms.

The flame giant answered.

-Ktuga is the manager of the 97th floor.

“Kthuga…”

I remembered the name in my head.

It was Hercules who had been particularly obsessed with names since he had forgotten Yuwon’s name ten years ago.

“I’m sorry to meet you like this, Kthuga.”

Kuuuuk…

Hercules’ arm, which was supporting Kthuga’s body, swelled.

Muscles swelled and green tendons sprouted.

Chijit chijiji!

[The complete power of a giant resides in the arm.]

[The power of the thunderbolt. It dwells in this arm.]

[It has surpassed the power of a giant.]

[‘Giantization’ recognizes the opponent as a ‘giant.’]

An arm filled with lightning.

Hercules, who was struggling to support his body with both arms, struck Ctu with one arm. I lifted it up. And

right

after that.

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

, however, she strike the soles of his

feet with her free hand.

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

A part of his ankle was hit by a fist filled with lightning, and a piece of flesh fell to the floor.

And between the cracks.

Saaaa…

A huge snake covered the sky.

“Pear snake?”

“What is that…”

“It covered the sky…”

As if the flame giant Cthuga was nothing.

The snake blocked the sunlight shining down on the Golden Castle and covered the entire sky with its body.

It was like the world . A snake floating long in the sky as if trying to wrap itself around.

It had two heads and glared at Hercules with eyes that sparkled red like jewels. -All

the power you wield came from us.

Saaa-.

The snake with its tongue lashing out. Poison leaked out of his mouth.

-How dare you aim that power at us?

Hit me.- Hit me-.

Hercules felt the power of the thunderbolt flowing through his body open up. He felt

uncomfortable, as if he were wearing stuffy, uncomfortable clothes.

It was as if his magic power was being released. It felt like he was refusing to confront the manager.

‘This too… feels like what the monkey said.’

“It’s a bit annoying. I kept feeling nauseous while fighting with those guys. It must have been a sudden poop.”

“It’s probably because of the control over magical power. Administrators have special powers.”

If it weren’t for Zeus’s explanation, it would have been difficult to understand.

He would have thought that he was really in the middle of a fight when he suddenly needed to poop.

‘It’s the control over magical power…’

If that’s what he said, it was a truly deceptive ability.

The power of the thunderbolt was immediately there. I can feel this level of discomfort just by being in it myself.

How do other rankers feel?

‘I don’t think this tactic will work.’

I thought I knew why Zeus didn’t prepare another army for Olympus.

Numbers are of no use to them.

“Hmm.”

I inflate my lungs and take a deep breath.

I push away the uncomfortable feeling inside me and increase my concentration.

What should I do at this time?

I already told this to Goku.

“In the end, it’s a race against time. Increase your concentration and resist the discomfort as much as possible. “If it’s a long-term war, I’ll stop you.”

‘I can’t believe what he says other times…’

Hercules’ eyes lit up.

‘No one can match this.’

Monkey, Stone-headed, Thunder-naked….

There were many words meaning ‘fool’ to refer to Son Goku.

However, in one situation, he turned into a genius who was smarter than anyone else.

It was when he was fighting.

‘I believe, monkey.’

In this way, Hercules raised his concentration to its peak.

He resisted the power of the manager who upset his stomach and strengthened his legs.

Toward that huge snake floating in the sky.

Boom!

He kicked the ground and jumped high.

Grasping. -!

I pulled out a club made from a branch of the World Tree that was hanging on my back and grabbed

it. When I jumped up to the eye level of the huge snake floating in the sky.

“During the mission given by my stepmother, I hunted a nine-headed snake.”

Although he is much larger,

there is a myth about Hercules’ club that subdued him.

[’12 Labors’ appear.]

[‘The Hunter of the Nine Serpents’ appears.] The

one who caught the Hydra. The myth was put into a club.

What was in front of me now was a bigger snake, but I forgot about it.

Hydra, the lord of the swamp.

Hercules swung the club, remembering the feeling of crushing the nine-headed creature.

– Dare . !

Puhwaaa!

The two-headed snake spewed venom from its mouth.

Black smoke with an acid that could melt any hard metal attacked Hercules’ body.

One.

Flash!

A golden lightning flashed through the smoke. It exploded.

Kwa-rung-!

With a sound of thunder, Hercules struck down the snake’s head.

* * *

Zeus, who had been standing staggeringly, fell to the floor again.

It was because he had relaxed for a moment.

‘Here you come.’

In Zeus’s blurred eyes, Yuwon and Pandora were reflected.

Pandora, who was always scared or sulky when she saw him, looked shocked.

Well,

it was the first time she had seen her bleeding and hurt like this, so it was natural. .

“It’s late.”

“I came early. As soon as possible.”

Yuwon replied and checked the time on the kit.

‘It’s been a little over a year. It’s later than I thought.’

It was a shame because I found the autumn leaves earlier than expected. The time axis was more distorted than I thought.

I know it was late,

but I didn’t show it on the outside.

I didn’t know what more complaints that guy would complain about.

“I’m covering my ears. “Don’t listen to nonsense.”

Zeus was wounded and weak.

As his body weakens, his mental power also weakens.

He knew this, so he targeted this moment.

He thought that the current Zeus would be able to penetrate his dreams.

” “What is it? That.”

“A voice that should not be heard. What is happening now is because of that.”

“Do you know what the situation is?”

“I saw it on the way. In Muspelheim.”

“Right.”

Zeus seemed to understand Yuwon’s words and began to stop the bleeding from the wound.

It seemed like he would lose his sanity if he bled more.

‘That’s strange.’

There was curiosity in Zeus’s eyes as he looked at the purple haze.

Just

after hearing that guy’s voice, he started thinking about something he normally wouldn’t have done.

It felt different from the hallucinatory hypnosis skill.

The process that led to that thought was It was so natural that I didn’t even suspect it.

Above all, I didn’t feel any magical power.

That’s why

it felt even more dangerous.’

Originally, what you don’t understand is the most fearful.

The same goes for the beings from outside the tower.

Their power and existence, derived from their names, were beyond the awareness of the players inside the tower.

But now,

from that purple haze that appeared before their eyes, they were I had a similar feeling.

Blurry.

My vision wavered a little.

My thoughts became shallow and all strength drained from my body.

It was getting difficult to stay conscious.

“Pandora.”

Yuwon looked back at Pandora with an apologetic face.

It was a request that was difficult to put into words.

To protect the person who had imprisoned him for over a thousand years.

When he hesitated to speak for a moment.

“It’s okay.”

“Baa-.”

When Pandora nodded, the autumn leaves above her head raised their hands.

It seems like he’s asking me to just leave it to him.

At that sight, a grin escaped from the corner of Yuwon’s mouth.

I wouldn’t be so reluctant.

No, she obviously didn’t want to do it, but she granted his request.

then.

“Instead, when you wake up, grab it yourself.”

Later, after Zeus is healed, he can give her another chance.

A chance to release the anger that has been building up inside for a long time.

‘It’s a reward for saving my life, so I guess that’s okay.’

Jeopuk-.

Leaving Zeus to the two of them, Yuwon walked towards the purple haze.

It was confused as it stared at Yuwon in the fog.

-What are you?

The guy didn’t know himself.

You won’t even be able to remember the name ‘Kim Yu-won’, let alone what your name is.

To find out, more time, contact, and strong shock were needed.

Originally, I was planning on hiding a little longer.

As Zeus said, his existence was the key to winning this fight, and the more confused they felt, the more they would gain.

but.

‘There is no need for that anymore.’

The plan only worked until the leaves were found.

“I’ve waited a long time.”

This thing in front of me was just a small fragment of this thing.

Rankers lying on the floor.

It is nothing more than small fragments planted in their bodies that come together to form a temporary form.

“Eating away at other people’s dreams. “I crawled on the floor of the highest place to avoid the sky of the world.”

As Yuwon continued to speak, the haze shook more violently.

The guy hid in the haze and looked at Yuwon with hidden eyes.

It was as if he was trying to figure out who the being that appeared before his eyes was.

-Do you know who I am?

“know.”

Yuwon answered without hesitation.

“He who dreams great dreams. The one who sleeps in the deep sea. “The one who crawls on the floor of the high world.”

Those names were all names that belonged to him.

“Isn’t this enough to describe you?”

It was a warning.

I know you.

So keep crawling on the floor like you always did.

Stop here now.

-What are you? Are you Kim Yu-hoon?

Kim Yu-hoon.

The fictitious name Yu-won created seemed to have found its way into the managers as well.

Asking questions. Looking at it, it looks like someone among the famous rankers may have created a fake name.

“That’s also true. And again.”

I wasn’t very happy to be known by that name anymore.

There was only one thing I needed from the guy in front of me right now,

and that was-.

“Who do you think killed Yog-Sothoth?”

It was a fear of myself.
