Leveling With The Gods Chapter 172

[Level Up with God Episode 172]

It was strange.

Normally, the fight over there should have been over by now.

Because the gap between Pandora and Kim Yu-won was that big.

I couldn’t understand why the fight, which was supposed to end in about 12 minutes at most, didn’t end until now.

‘Is it because of Pandora’s instability?’

At first I thought so.

Kim Yu-won appears in front of Pandora.

The reason he survives is simply because his mental strength is higher than that of most rankers.

but.

Since he was that good, he could have brought Olympus to this point.

But….

growl!

A fire broke out a short distance away from Mt. Cheonsan.

A fire that quickly grows to envelop the entire mountain.

But the important thing wasn’t the fire.

Wow!

A woman’s screams were drowned out by the noise of the battlefield.

Hearing Pandora’s scream, Athena hurriedly checked the situation through the inner surface of the Aegis.

The appearance of Pandora burning in purple flames.

‘How on earth?’

“You were distracted.”

Surprised, Athena raised her head.

That moment.

Hiss-.

Whoops-!

Athena’s body, struck by the Heavenly Demon Spirit’s sword, flew downward.

Kwang kwagwagwang-.

Quadddddd-.

Athena, who had knocked down several peaks of Heavenly Mountain, barely managed to get up from the ground.

A fairly deep wound was left on my shoulder, which I was unable to defend with Aegis.

“Wow….”

I never thought a quick glance could produce results like this.

It seemed like he was too complacent against Cheonma. However, it was not a situation that could be overlooked casually.

widened distance.

Athena looked at Pandora’s situation again.

OK.

“This is…”

Athena’s eyes widened.

Just a moment ago, I could clearly see Pandora burning in purple flames.

“what’s this?”

In the Aegis, something pitch black, not Pandora, was reflected.

* * *

A land covered with thousands of teeth.

Kwaduk-.

After putting Pandora inside and chewing it, the egg began to feast on it.

‘It takes a long time to eat.’

I knew that size wasn’t important because of Lancelot’s work.

Perhaps what the egg is eating is not Pandora’s flesh or bones, but the power of the Outer itself within it.

‘Does that mean there’s that much of it?’

Unlike Lancelot, who was just at the edge of the high rankers, she had power comparable to that of fairly high ranked high rankers.

And most of the reason he was able to have that kind of power was because of the power outside the tower.

Al was using that power very well.

“What is all this?”

Fluffy-.

Yuwon raised his head at the polite voice.

Above the sky.

A boy was floating quite high up, looking down at the amusement park.

“Is what I’m seeing real?”

Hermes.

A high ranker from Olympus who symbolizes freedom.

The ranking itself is higher than Ares, but in terms of skill, he falls far short of Athena.

To begin with, Hermes was a ranker who had the advantage of mobility but not much destructive power.

“Are you asking me that?”

“then? “Who are you asking?”

“Nucksal is also good. “We’re not even on the same side.”

“It’s a bit like that.”

Hermes came down and landed on the ground.

Yuwon, who was on guard for a moment, lowered his sword again.

Hermes did not lift his staff or produce any magical power.

“Are you not planning on fighting?”

“If it’s a fight, I already did it to my heart’s content. “I don’t even like it very much, so my sister wouldn’t know.”

“Still, there must have been some orders.”

“There’s no reason to fight anymore like this, right?”

Quad deuk-.

Pandora being chewed by countless teeth.

Hermes looked at Yuwon with curiosity.

“From the looks of it, those shoes are mine too. Can you answer me?”

Hermes’ eyes turned to the shoes Yuwon was wearing.

It was an item that I lost quite a while ago.

Like the cane, it was a treasured item, and Yu-won was wearing it.

It seems that it was probably handed over to an administrator through some route and paid as compensation.

“Because I won’t ask you again.”

“As you can see.”

Yuwon answered while looking at the same scene as Hermes.

“I don’t know either.”

“What kind of answer is that….”

“You will soon find out.”

Hermes frowned with a knowing look on his face.

A face that asks what you are talking about.

I also thought that maybe he was avoiding answering.

But those words were sincere.

The same was true for Yuwon, who did not know the identity of the egg. I only found out that it was a type of outerwear through the pattern engraved on the egg.

This guy grew up eating outerwear.

perhaps.

Really maybe.

‘This guy might be Outer’s natural enemy.’

The odds were low.

The outer beings that Yuwon had seen and experienced were beings for whom the word ‘natural enemy’ did not fit.

There were many beings that could not even be compared to the head of Yamata no Orochi or the Pandora in front of Lancelot.

Is there a natural enemy that eats them?

It was hard to believe.

But I still had no choice but to walk.

I got one more chance.

Somehow, we have to win this time.

“Isn’t it because you don’t want to talk right now?”

Hermes, unable to get a satisfactory answer, asked more questions.

Then Yuwon nodded and pointed forward.

“Look at that.”

“that?”

Shrug-.

The place where Pandora was.

Dozens of tentacles protruded from between thousands of teeth.

A form of life form I have never seen before.

At that moment, dozens of teeth came forward and ate it as if they wouldn’t let go.

Yuwon continued, looking at Hermes’ blue face.

“How could you possibly know something like that?”

It was a strangely understandable statement.

It was something I couldn’t believe even after seeing it.

When it comes to scary things, Zeus was much scarier. Even if you bring dozens of things like that, they won’t be able to defeat one Zeus.

But the fear Hermes was feeling was different.

If I had to find a reason, it was because I couldn’t understand it.

“okay. “I guess so.”

When Hermes nodded like that.

“Master Sujiao!”

“Get back!”

Two people, Poong Baek-rim and Baek Moo-gang, ran and blocked Yuwon’s path.

Thumbs down -.

Immediately after that, Shin Mugeuk and Jang Cheon-il blocked Hermes. Pung Baek-rim’s body was already in tatters, torn and torn in various places, and Shin Mu-geuk’s body was also limp and shaking as if one of his arms had been broken.

It seemed like the four people were trying to somehow catch Hermes by working together.

“woah. “Everyone is quick on their feet.”

Hermes, on the other hand, was relaxed.

Not a single scratch.

However, Hermes actually raised his staff upward and spoke.

“surrender. “It is surrender.”

“…?”

A question mark appeared over the faces of the four people.

It was clearly a one-sided fight until just now, but they suddenly surrendered.

“I don’t have the confidence to fight with this guy. And this fight is already over.”

Hermes’ head turned.

And that moment.

Easy profit-.

Kwaang-!

Something fell from the sky, raising a cloud of dust. Pung Baek-rim and Shin Mugeuk hurriedly stood to protect Yuwon from it, while Baek Moo-gang swung his spear and kicked up the dust.

“K…”

Athena rose from the dust.

She was bleeding, holding the Aegis in one hand and a broken sword in the other.

“Everyone just gathered.”

Is it coincidence or fate?

As the end of the fight approached, everyone gathered together.

“Hermes.”

“sister.”

Hermes’ gaze turned to the spot where Pandora disappeared.

“We lost.”

“….”

It was something I already knew.

And that made it even more bitter.

Whatever the reason, he lost to Cheon Moo-jin because he was distracted for a moment.

Pandora was attacked by Kim Yu-won, and the only one who was relatively unharmed was Hermes.

But there was no way to turn the tide of the fight just because he was there.

‘Is it that guy again?’

Puzzle-.

Athena gritted her teeth as she glared at Yuwon.

War and wisdom.

These were two words that symbolized themselves within Olympus. In fact, she went to numerous battlefields organized by Olympus and lived without knowing defeat.

That’s why she was always at the forefront of war.

There was one fight that failed like that not long ago.

And again today, in Yuwon’s presence, he suffered defeat.

“Hercules is yours too.”

I had a guess, but I wanted to hear a confirmation.

And I was curious.

What on earth did Hercules, who was called the hero of Olympus, turn around?

What on earth attracted Kim Yu-won to him?

but.

“no.”

The answer that came back was completely different from what Athena expected.

“It’s your doing.”

“what?”

“I just told you, Zeus, what your father did. “That’s it.”

What on earth are you talking about?

It was a completely incomprehensible sound. Even if it wasn’t, it felt like a hazy fog was suddenly hanging over something that had been wrapped in a veil.

Yuwon looked at Athena, who was reacting in confusion.

Hwareuk-.

[‘Hwa-Eun’ grasps the truth.]

One of the abilities of Hwa-Eun.

Lies and truth.

In this case, it was not enough to simply understand the other person’s mood through facial expressions and eyes, but using the skill was still much more accurate than simply reading facial expressions.

‘Athena didn’t know.’

Since she and Ares are siblings, I thought she would also be involved in Hercules’ work.

But it seems she didn’t know anything about Hercules.

Athena was at the forefront of Olympus and led the war effort, but Zeus did not seem to completely trust her.

‘Then Hermes…’

Yuwon turned his head and looked at Hermes.

His expression was simpler to read than Athena’s.

[Not interested]

It was a Hermes-like reaction.

His symbol within Olympus is freedom.

Hermes, who was known for his simplicity and aversion to complicated matters, did not care much unless it was directly related to him.

‘I heard he’s a guy who wouldn’t care if Olympus falls…’
