Leveling With The Gods Chapter 338

[Level Up with God Episode 338]

* * *

Boom- Boom-.

A wild boar as huge as a mountain snorts.

Every time he took a step, the ground shook. The hot snort turned into smoke and went up into the sky, and the surrounding air became muggy.

These were all changes that occurred when he got angry.

“He’s an angry guy.”

thud-!

Hercules planted both legs firmly on the ground.

He held a club in one hand and looked at the wild boar that appeared in front of him.

Yuwon, who was watching the two from afar, held a peeled walnut in his hand and popped it into his mouth.

It was a good sight to see.

‘If you look at it this way, it’s just like a movie.’

Wagjag-.

It was a shame there was no popcorn. How can you just watch such an interesting sight without even touching it?

The conflict between Hercules and the Boar of Erymanthus would probably end in an instant.

The wild boar of Erymanthus was huge enough to be compared to Behemoth.

Hercules’ strength was strong enough to throw it with one hand.

just as expected.

Kwaang-!

Yuwon saw a huge wild boar rising into the sky.

Kueeeeek!

Following the sound of a pig being slaughtered, the wild boar that had risen high crashed to the ground.

After beating the boar, Hercules put the club back on his shoulder.

“It’s hot.”

Cheeeee-.

The red-hot ground slowly returned to its original state.

The wild boar of Erymanthus had the power to burn the ground and change the weather with just its snort.

Now that the wild boar has fallen, it is natural that the weather will return to normal.

And this was the fourth task given to Hercules.

Yuwon was busy rolling his eyes while forgetting the walnut.

‘Nothing much has happened yet.’

This was now the fourth task.

There are a total of 8 remaining tasks.

At this rate, one month would be enough to complete all tasks.

yes-.

It was then that the kit rang.

It was a message from Hargan.

The news of meeting Hercules has already been delivered. There was nothing worth communicating with him.

Is that why?

Yuwon felt a strange sense of ominousness through the trembling kit.

“What’s going on?”

-My uncle passed away.

“Unclefather…?”

Two people came to mind.

Poseidon and Hades.

After thinking for a moment, Yuwon asked.

“Surely Hades?”

-okay! Hades! He passed away!

It was a voice that seemed to be driven by evil somewhere.

It means that the situation is that difficult.

‘Hades is dead? suddenly?’

The news was so unexpected that it almost didn’t feel real.

Hades was a high ranker ranked 51st. I can’t believe Hades died so suddenly.

Moreover, he was known to have only been in the center of Olympus recently.

“Tell me in detail. “I wonder what happened.”

If it is true that Hades is dead, the fight becomes difficult.

Currently, there was no one in Olympus who could carry on the king’s lineage. The person most suited to the position was Hades, followed by Hera.

However, if Hades died, it was now Hera’s turn.

-I don’t know what happened. However, he was suddenly found dead in the middle of the royal castle.

“Suddenly…”

– As if he had been assassinated.

“Any signs of battle?”

-doesn’t exist. Not at all.

That meant that he died so quickly that it was impossible to know how he would die.

But it was impossible.

It was Hades and no one else. Even if the opponent was Odin, he wouldn’t be able to do that.

At least other rankers in the castle should have noticed.

but.

‘Is it him?’

There is only one person in Yuwon’s mind.

There was a guy who could do that.

“Once I figured it out.”

-For now?

“For now, find the person who killed Hades. “The king has been murdered, so the position should remain vacant until the culprit is found.”

-Are you saying you don’t know Hera as the culprit?

As expected, Hargan was quick-witted.

He understood the meaning of Yuwon’s words and asked curiously.

-But there is no way for Hera to kill her uncle. It is even more impossible to kill silently like now.

Of course, Hera was not the culprit.

Even if she was the culprit, it was nearly impossible to find out that it was her.

Because she didn’t have the ability to do that.

“Whether Hera is the culprit or not, if she is considered a suspect, the succession to the throne will be delayed. “I guess I can buy some time.”

-Buy time. Is that the point?

“okay.”

-how much?

“Enough to earn. “As much as possible.”

I had hoped it would simply be an incident caused by Hera’s greed, but that was no longer the case.

“Because they probably want to hurry up a little more.”

-…I get it.

The phone call with Hargan ended there.

The call must have been made in a rather urgent situation, and it seemed like someone else’s urgent voice could be heard over the phone call.

“What’s going on?”

Is it because Yuwon’s expression was unusual?

Hercules, who had clearly suffocated the downed boar, approached and asked.

Yuwon thought for a while and told Hercules the story he had shared with Hargan.

OK.

“…Something is going wrong.”

Hercules muttered with a serious face.

“Did Hera make the first move?…”

“What are you going to do?”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m asking whether you want to continue with the task.”

His worries continued.

After a while.

“wait.”

He took out the kit and made a call to someone.

The dial tone became longer. After a long time, the other person answered the phone.

-What’s happen?

“Hera. “Have you heard the news?”

His voice was quite calm, considering he had just heard that the King of Olympus had died.

The opponent is Hera.

She was the wife of Zeus, the former king of Olympus, and a high ranker ranked 97th.

-What news?

“You haven’t heard yet?”

A moment of silence.

The answer came a beat late.

-Do you think I did that?

“Isn’t it?”

-no way. Where is the ability to do that?

Hera’s defense was virtually invincible. In fact, killing Hades with her abilities was almost impossible.

Naturally, Hercules did not think that she would readily confess what she had done.

Instead, what Hercules wanted to hear was something else.

“Is the bet valid?”

-Obviously.

“Keep this in mind.”

Puzzle-.

Hercules ground his teeth.

A voice full of suppressed anger came out of his throat.

“If you don’t keep your promise, I’ll break your neck first.”

-I promise.

“I’ll hang up.”

Pop-.

The phone call was cut off unilaterally.

Yuwon, who was listening to the phone call next to him, looked at Hercules’ back.

I could tell without having to look at the expression.

What is Hercules thinking? How angry are you right now?

“Tell me.”

Hercules asked without turning.

“How much time do you think we have?”

hour.

It was referring to the time until the succession ceremony to the empty throne.

Yuwon thought for a moment, then remembered his conversation with Hargan and answered.

“As short as ten days. “About 15 days at most.”

“Ten days…”

It wasn’t a long time at all.

There are eight remaining tasks.

Not every task was easy. In fact, it was not enough time to carry out the task.

Hercules hurriedly called another number.

The connection sound was short-lived.

-Hey, what the hell? I still can’t contact you!

“I’m sorry, Brother Apollo.”

When Apollo criticized him for not being able to contact him for a long time, Hercules quickly spoke with an apology.

“Could you please lend me a sun chariot?”

* * *

At this time, it had only been a few years since Zeus disappeared and the king changed.

Olympus lost its king again.

It is impossible to leave the king’s seat empty, let alone any other seat. In Olympus, voices saying that a new king should be elected and voices that the king should be avenged erupted at the same time.

And among them.

Tick-.

The center of the Temple of Hera.

Hera, sitting at the head of the long round table, turned over the player kit.

“upstart.”

Hera muttered irritably with a nervous expression on her face.

“How dare you do something to me?”

In past years, she was the Queen of Olympus.

A being with power second only to Zeus.

Not only the three gods, Poseidon and Hades, but no one could speak ill of her.

no.

I couldn’t even make eye contact.

But Hercules was an exception.

“Where are you Hera?”

I felt like I could hear the voice of a guy who had once invaded my temple and screamed.

Although it was not in the temple, the situation at the time was seen through records.

Hera could not tolerate the existence of Hercules from then until now.

“As for the concubine’s son…”

“But his skills are real.”

Suuu-.

A voice heard without any pretense of popularity.

Hera was startled, but she tried to act as if nothing had happened and turned her head away.

“Are you here?”

“yes.”

A robin bowing down politely next to him.

Although I had never seen his face, this incident clearly showed how great he was.

“I hope you don’t get caught up in your emotions and mess things up. Even if you don’t, things will go smoothly.”

“…I only trust you.”

He appeared calling himself a ‘fool’ and approached him without revealing his face or identity.

From the beginning, I had no intention of accepting him as he approached me without even showing his face.

But after this incident, she came to trust him completely.

no.

To be precise, I became afraid.

“Would you trust me if I killed Hades?

I thought it was ridiculous.

What on earth can a guy who doesn’t even have a ranking do?

With a feeling of “no,” she accepted the offer.

But why?

He really proved his point.

It meant that this guy was outstanding not only with his brains but also with his strength.

“Hercules turned outward and Hades died.”

Hera thought of the two people she thought were the biggest challenges when she first started this job.

Hades and Hercules.

However, one of them died and the other accepted a ridiculous bet and wasted time outside of Olympus.

“It’s almost complete now.”

“It is still too early to jump to conclusions.”

Cold water poured on high expectations.

Hera asked, slowly turning the corners of her mouth back to their original state.

“What else is left?”

“If that guy were involved, the game might be different.”

“That guy?”

The foolish chaos I watched from the sidelines was full of confidence in every case.

But…it might change.

Hera had never thought such words would come out of that guy’s mouth.

“Who are you talking about?”

“Kim Yu-won.”

“Kim Yu-won?”

I’ve heard the name a lot.

no.

It wasn’t just something I had heard of.

This guy was probably the culprit that led to his current situation.

He was the one who incited Hades and Hercules to destroy Olympus.

That was a guy named Kim Yu-won.

“Are you saying that guy is going to interfere again this time?”

“That is very likely.”

Inside a deeply pressed robe.

Hera noticed the corners of her mouth rising in foolish confusion.

“Then this fight will be between him and me.”
