#63. Swordsmanship Lesson of the Gods (2)
Cold silence.
Damdeok opened his mouth as casually as possible.
“What do you mean by ‘human’ all of a sudden? There is no law that says only humans can use magical power… .”
Ares looked even more suspicious.
He asked, looking back at Hercules standing behind him.
[Hey you. Have you ever seen a god who uses magic in Olympus?]
Hercules slowly shook his head. He too had a puzzled look on his face.
Damdeok’s heart was beating harder and harder.
‘If I keep doing this, won’t I get caught as a human being?’
Ares approached with a confident look on his face.
[Hey, where are you from… ?]
Athena quietly stopped Ares, who was approaching menacingly.
[what? Let go of this, Athena.]
[Why are you so excited? Why don’t gods use magical power? It was our gods who passed on magic power to humans. In the first place, magic power is the energy of our gods.]
Ares paused at Athena’s words.
It was definitely true.
[No, that’s true, but… Still, where on earth is a god who uses magical power instead of divine power?! Who handles such inefficient energy?! It’s suspicious!]
That was also correct.
If you go to the gods’ store right now, you will see that powers are extremely expensive, but talents and skills are like a commodity.
When using your powers, improving your physical abilities, or using system services.
Unlike ‘divine power’, which is used for all purposes, ‘magic power’, which exists only to activate skills, was a very inefficient energy from the gods’ perspective.
‘Damn, was I too careless?’
No, what should I do if the skill goes out unintentionally?
‘I could have cut down all those mud soldiers without wave cutting… .’
But the water had already spilled.
Ares’ expression was too serious to just laugh it off.
Actually, there was another reason why he reacted so sensitively… .
‘It’s very similar to when those bastards attacked in the past… !’
A few years ago, monsters called Typhon invaded the gladiatorial arena.
‘Those guys changed their appearance completely and came in here calmly!’
Typhon, who was skilled in the art of transformation, disguised himself as a god of Olympus and leisurely infiltrated the gladiatorial arena of Ares.
‘Besides, you use magic power like those guys? There’s nothing more to see!’
Since Typhon is not a god, he cannot use divine powers.
Instead, they were able to handle a similar amount of magical power as dragons.
Seeing that they knew how to use magical power to breathe fire and strike lightning, Ares was deceived into thinking that they would naturally be high-ranking gods.
[How hard I worked to restore the broken gladiatorial arena!!]
As soon as Ares shouted in anger, Damdeok stepped back.
[Prove that you are not a dirty Typhon! Prove it!!]
Ares, who was right in front of us, growled menacingly.
Damdeok couldn’t understand his sudden growling and talking about Typhon.
Athena quietly approached me and briefly explained what happened earlier.
It was absurd.
“How are you going to prove that?”
[That’s a problem you have to figure out!!]
It’s reckless.
Ares was already in a very excited state, engulfed in memories of the past.
Athena must have decided that it would be difficult to stop her any longer, so she just sighed and shook her head.
‘Sheesh, I can’t help it.’
In the end, Damdeok had to prove that he was a god and not Typhon.
It wasn’t that difficult.
No matter how much Typhon used magic to imitate the powers of God,
‘I can’t even imitate something like this.’
It was a unique power that only God could use, ‘God’s call’.
“… Eh?”
“what… ?”
White Cloud and Adele Sharon appeared with blank expressions.
Baekgureum was brushing his teeth in his pajamas, and Adele Sharon had her hair up and had a bunch of cucumbers stuck to her face for a massage.
“Oh, bro, really!”
“Hey! “Don’t call me at any time!!”
Their eyes flashed fiercely, but Damdeok struggled to look away.
‘It can’t be helped.’
Isn’t this a situation where if you make a mistake, your life could be lost?
“How is it. “Has this been proven enough?”
There was silence.
There was no clearer proof than when he summoned his own priest to prove that he was a god.
Ares’s expression changed to a grumpy one.
[Hmm, I guess I made a mistake here. Since those Typhon guys are so clever… .]

“haha! okay! I was really surprised too. Brother, I had no idea these were your priests. “I took a hit with this.”
Hercules also approached, scratching the back of his head.
[I told you not to get so excited.]
At the end of Athena’s mocking murmur, the atmosphere calmed down in an instant.
but,
“hey! Are you kidding me? I am also a person with a schedule. If I mess up filming a movie tomorrow, will you take responsibility? uh?! “Are you going to pay for the director?”
Adele Sharon screams while putting her head back to prevent the cucumber from falling off her face.
The sight was so bizarre that Baekgureum flinched and took a step to the side.
“No, over there… Sister, why are you doing this here… .”
“shut up!! Everything is noisy!! They said that if I become a priest, they will cure my illness, but my mana is still the same as a booger!! Do you know how much I wanted to play the role of a mage in this movie?! But I got kicked again! “You got kicked again!!”
“Why are you doing that to me?” .”
Damdeok sighed and approached the glowing Adele Sharon.
It was an action meant to comfort him, but he only got hit on the nose by Adele Sharon’s reckless arm swing.
“Ugh! Hey, what are you doing! “Just stay still!”
“You swindler! When are you going to give me my mana back? “Take it back!!”
“Crazy, did I steal mana!! Come on! a little! Still… Hey, white clouds! catch!”
“huh? Ah, yes!”
Damdeok and Baekgureum grabbed Adele Sharon’s arms and tried to calm her down, but she was stubborn.
“Huh!! What’s a mage without mana like? “How can I be a mage without mana!!”
“Oh, looks like he’s been drinking again… .”
“Right, bro? i think so too… .”
“Hey, Adele. I’m trying to cure my mana deficiency. I have to solve the immediate problem first, so for now… .”
Damdeok began to gently comfort Adele Sharon.
‘If I send him back like this, he’s the kind of guy who’s going to fire even if it means breaking the contract.’
Of course, the priest cannot break the contract himself, but isn’t he a companion who will have to fight with him later anyway?
There was nothing good about the relationship going sour.
“Is it true, you promise?”
The gods, who were watching Damdeok seriously comforting Adele Sharon, suddenly started laughing.
[Puh-ha-ha! A god who is like friends with a priest like that. It’s fresh?]
“After all, a man must be strong to the weak and weak to the strong!”
When Hercules came forward with an expression of interest, Damdeok looked at them with a look that asked what they were talking about.
From the perspective of the gods who lived in a master-servant relationship with the priest, the current situation was a very interesting spectacle.
However, unlike the single gods, Adele Sharon’s drunkenness had already reached a high level.
“Why only me!! Why am I the only weak one? I will curse you all!! I’ll curse you! “Yudamdeeook!!!”
“No, you say you’re cursing them all, but why is the last one my name…?” .”
“Yudamdeeook!! Kill me, Yudamdeeook!! “Hurry up and make me stronger!!”
Athena, who was watching the glowing Adele Sharon, opened her mouth as if she felt a little sad.
[Hmm, I don’t know what mana scarcity is, but… If you want to become stronger, it would be okay to train together here.]
Ares, who was laughing, widened his eyes and looked at Athena.
[hey! Athena! This is my gladiatorial arena! Why do you want… .]
Athena smiled and looked back.
[why? no? You also complained that there aren’t too many training scenes these days. Are you saying you wish the gladiatorial arena would be a little more crowded?]
[No, that means it was crowded with gods. He didn’t mean to bring in humans!]
[joy. They are afraid of Typhon invading, so they restrict the entry and exit of all higher-ranking gods… .]
Ares’ face heated up at Athena’s muttering.
[Oh, no?!]
[No, it’s not true. That’s why he was allowed to train even though he was a low-level rookie. There is no way Typhon could transform into a lesser god.]
“right. “That is correct.”
When Hercules nodded, Ares smiled and said nothing.
‘A girl is someone who always needs to be protected.’
Athena was seeing her childhood in Adele Sharon, who aspired to be stronger than anyone else.
‘Poor guy.’
Athena slowly approached Adele Sharon and gently put her face in her face.
Adele Sharon, who was hiccuping with her arms and legs held together, looked at her.
“… What is this sister? “You’re prettier than me.”
[I am a child who aspires to be strong. If you train with me, you will definitely become stronger than you are now.]
Athena’s hand gently stretched out.
Adele Sharon’s two pupils, which had been released, shook.
“… You can become stronger… “There is?”
Athena nodded with a kind smile.
[then. of course. As the god of war, Athena swears.]
“iced coffee… .”
Athena bent down and gave Adele Sharon a warm hug as she covered her mouth as if she was touched.
[okay. I will make you the strongest woman in the world.]
Adele Sharon covered her mouth even harder as a hand patted her back.
It was a heartwarming scene no matter who saw it.
At that moment, from the mouth of Adele Sharon, who was blocking it with all her might… .
“Wow!! “Week!!”
A rainbow fountain gushes out.
Everyone’s movements froze.
Damdeok quietly looked somewhere else.
“I do not know… .”
Athena was motionless, as if she were a statue.
[Phew! Haha! Puhahaha!]
Afterwards, Ares burst out laughing, and Athena quietly got up and dragged Ares away.
puck! Green onions! Sigh! Burbubbuk!
Outside the gladiatorial arena, the sound of threshing continued to ring out.
For a very bloody long time… .
* * *
“Tsk!”
Damdeok vigorously threw the horn he held in both hands.
Wow!
Immediately, a huge Minotaur fell to the floor.
A guy with hazy eyes.
Around him, dozens of Minotaurs were already lying unconscious.
“As expected, it’s amazing! “I don’t believe he’s a low-level god?”
Hercules clap clap! They clapped and clapped their shoulders.
“That’s enough for early morning training. “I need to get in shape today.”
Damdeok quietly nodded at Hercules’ words.
As I turned my stiff body around, I felt that my muscles and bones had become stronger.
“Well, is it strange that I trained so ignorantly that I don’t get stronger?”
“what! “That’s a lot of attention.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Damdeok chuckled.
It’s already been a month since I started training at Ares’ gladiatorial arena.
‘There was no such training as hell.’
Wake up early in the morning and go to sparring.
After breakfast, strength training and sparring again.
After lunch, strength training and sparring again.
After dinner and fitness… ha.
It was a day that made me throw up just talking about it.
The only thing that was comforting was,
“Aaaah! surrender! “It’s surrender!”
[You weak bastard! There is no such thing as surrender in the dictionary of Ares!!]
“No, crazy! “Let go of this!”
Baekgureum, captured by Ares and wielding a sword in confusion.
Damdeok was happily looking at the scene.
‘That guy has developed a lot of skills too.’
[White Cloud (Human)]
[Occupation: First Priest]
[Talent: Swordsmanship (SS)]
[Skills: White Sword Technique (S+), Light Rush (E), Leaf Kick (C), Warrior’s Stamina (F), Regime Stab (B), One-Two Combination (C), Berserker Slash (E+)]
When I saw Baekgureum’s profile, I couldn’t help but smile.
It had to be that way.
As the priest got stronger, I felt that my combat power also increased in real time.
‘That guy, White Cloud, is already so strong in the human world that he doesn’t develop skills well.’
Here in the Divine Realm, three new skills were created in just one month.
‘It’s good in times like this that Ares deals with them ignorantly.’
Ares must have really liked Baek Gureum, who had similar tendencies to himself, so after sparring with Damdeok, he almost exclusively marked Baek Gureum.
Thanks to this, the skill names were all simple but effective things like Light Rush, Berserker Slash, and Warrior’s Stamina.
furthermore,
“Ugh! “I’m sorry, sister!”
[are you okay. again!]
On one side, Athena and Adele Sharon’s training was in full swing, and Athena, who is also the goddess of wisdom, was basically teaching Adele Sharon mental content as her main training.
‘That didn’t cure Adele’s mana deficiency, but… .’
[Adelle Sharon (human)]
[Occupation: Second Priest]
[Talent: Unknown]
[Skills: Spatial Concentration (C), Mind Control (D), Female Warrior’s Spear (F)]
“It’s still much better.”
It was truly a huge improvement compared to before when there were no skills at all.
Of course, they were all things that had nothing to do with ‘magic’… .
“Hey, buddy. Even the priests are so enthusiastic. “You can never lose face with God, right?”
Just then, dawn breaks over Mount Olympus.
The morning sunlight pouring down dazzlingly.
Hercules held out his fist and expressed his support.
“Today is already match day, right? I believe you will survive. sibling.”
“don’t worry. “Because I will never lose.”
When I turned away from the sun, everyone, including Ju Ju-yul, was looking this way.
“Are you ready?”
Damdeok grinned at Ju Soo-yul’s words and took a step forward.
“okay. let’s go.”
