I Became a Part-time Employee For Gods Chapter 72

#72. Loki, God of Mischief (2)

“… “They’re in there?”

Damdeok’s gaze turned again to the cliff on the other side.

Thor is seen wielding Mjolnir among the ice giants.

Thor, who usually looked very large, looked like a mini figure when he was in the middle.

“Right now, all I can see are ice giants… Could it be that the third guardian you are talking about is… .”

“Oh, no way… .”

“really… ?”

Adele Sharon and Baek Gureum added their chuimsae at the same time.

Addressul slowly opened his mouth.

“okay. The third guardian, Ettin, is the king of the ice giants. Those ice giants are all Etin’s people. “They are a very tight-knit race, so he must be somewhere out there watching over his people.”

Adele Sharon’s mouth opened slightly.

“Huh… “Wasn’t the Guardian human?”

Baekgureum playfully countered.

“No. Humans are right. A giant is a big human, right? “Kkkkkk.”

“Are you telling jokes now? “It’s skin is blue and it looks like it’s 5 meters tall. How can it be human?”

“Why, there have been reports of yetis seen all over the world for a long time! “There’s nothing like that in your magical world!”

“There are no such ignorant creatures in the magical world?”

“You’re funny! “We all almost died from Karos!”

“… “Let’s try this little thing, shall we?”

“Do you want to try?”

Baekgureum and Adele Sharon started bickering again.

Leaving the two behind, Damdeok asked Ju Ju-yul.

“Even if the third guardian is not human… “So now the king of the ice giants, so our third guardian, is not on Thor’s side but on Loki’s side?”

That meant that he might have to fight Thor here to get the Guardian.

It was the worst.

But Jo So-yul slowly shook his head.

“Well, it’s probably nothing for you to worry about. The original Ettin would never side with a god like Loki. Moreover, it is strange that he brought all of his own people into this personal battle… .”

“what do you mean?”

“He’s probably being controlled by Loki. Because that’s what the God of Mischief does best. “I don’t know how you managed to possess Ettin, the absolute powerhouse of Niflheim.”

“It’s manipulation… .”

Damdeok’s gaze moved back to the scene of the fierce battle.

Thor was raining down indiscriminate lightning on the ice giants, but they only paralyzed him for a moment when they hit him and continued to attack him.

‘Just looking at it, his combat power is no joke.’

No matter how many ice giants there are, I can’t believe Thor is struggling like that.

‘Where did Loki go?’

Loki, who had been standing at the front earlier, had already moved far back and was being protected by the ice giants.

A giant stands out next to the grinning Loki.

It was a giant about 1.5 times larger than the surrounding giants, and had impressive blue eyes.

“Just by looking at him, that guy is the king. Right?”

“I see. Ettin doesn’t like pranks. She’s a serious person in everything she does. “It’s a very strange situation for her to be standing next to Loki like that.”

“good. Anyway, that big guy is the third guardian, right?”

Damdeok turned his shoulders and took a step forward.

“Are you going to fight?”

“With those giants?”

Adele Sharon and Baek Cloud asked at the same time.

On the opposite cliff, the sound of Thor striking Mjolnir was constantly coming out.

bang!! Kwaang!!

Damdeok spun Excalibur to the sound.

“why? “Are you scared?”

The white clouds strained my eyes.

“at all?”

Looking at the white clouds, Adele Sharon quietly wrapped her arms around fire attribute mana.

“Good. “I was already wondering how powerful the accumulated mana was.”

Damdeok grinned and kicked the ground.

“good. “Let’s go!”

* * *

Sigh!

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

Sharp ice picks raining down like crazy.

Damdeok dodged them all and was quickly rushing towards Loki.

‘If only Loki’s mind was distracted even for a moment… !’

Wasn’t the address rate like that?

It is said that Ettin originally had a disposition to dislike gods like Loki.

‘I don’t know what kind of power Loki used to possess Ettin.’

If Loki’s mind can be diverted so that he cannot use his divine power, Ettin will be able to escape on his own feet.

the problem is,

Quang!

“This bastard… ! “Get out of the way!”

It wasn’t difficult for Damdeok to get close to Loki with his wind sprint skill, but there was a giant blocking his path every time.

“Hey man! “Get out of the way?!”

Ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!

The ice giant’s huge right arm and Damdeok’s Excalibur clashed tightly.

A blue glow emanated from the ice giant’s eyes.

The third guardian, Etin.

He had a physique like a mountain and transparent ice skin. Unlike other giants, he had unknown ancient characters engraved on his shoulders and torso.

‘Is this a different level from other giants?’

According to Jooyul, Ettin is the most respected king in Niflheim and is called the father of ice monsters.

Damdeok was so frustrated that he was going crazy.

“The king was swayed by others like this… hey! “Do you want me to come to my senses?”

But Ettin just waved his arms like a snow storm without saying a word.

Whoa!

Kwakwakwakwakwa!!

In an instant, the surrounding ice floor was broken apart.

Damdeok had no choice but to retreat in a hurry.

‘It’s over with just one hit like that.’

Unlike White Cloud and Adele Sharon, who were extremely ordinary(?), the third guardian, Ettin, had a different level of strength.

Quang!

Kwakwakwakwakwa!!

Every time the guy swung his huge arm, a blizzard broke out, and all the ice around him was chipped away and turned into sharp ice picks.

Bub bub bub! Burbubbuk!

Ice picks pouring down like a storm.

Damdeok had to concentrate all his might to avoid them.

‘This is almost like a disaster.’

With that one swing, dozens of ordinary hunters would die instantly.

Well, hasn’t Thor, the god of thunder, been struggling against those ordinary ice giants for several minutes?

Ettin is the king of that race, so it’s amazing.

“driving me crazy. really.”

Damdeok frowned.

Loki, who was quietly watching, asked in a voice full of curiosity.

“Hmm… He’s a guy you haven’t seen before. Why are you disturbing me? “Are you a mercenary newly hired by Thor?”

Loki slowly turned his head.

In the back, Thor was seen dealing with ice giants that looked like hordes of zombies.

Around him were Ju Soo-yul, Baek Gu-reum, and Adele Sharon.

“Hmm, I brought the mercenaries, but it seems they were no success. Because the giants of Niflheim take no damage unless they are attacked by ice-type attacks. Is it okay for the prince of Asgard to not even know that? “Giggle.”

Loki’s eyes, which were smiling mischievously, turned to Damdeok again.

“On the other hand, you seem to have decent mana?”

Pure white mana surrounded by Damdeok’s Excalibur. It was all dense ice attribute mana.

Loki shrugged and laughed.

“But that’s not enough. Ettin in front of you is revered as the strongest in Niflheim. “She probably doesn’t have that much mana, does she?”

‘That guy is handsome, but he talks a lot.’

Looking up close, I see a face that would have been quite annoying to my parents when I was young.

A typical mischievous impression.

Damdeok yells at Loki! I aimed my sword.

“well? “Wouldn’t it be better to know whether I have enough mana or not?”

Loki’s eyes widened.

“with who?”

“Who is it with you?”

“Haha! “You’re fun.”

Loki smiled brightly.

It’s not fun at all, so what’s fun about it?

‘Let’s see if it makes that sound even after being beaten.’

Damdeok quickly moved his feet.

Loki, that guy doesn’t make a voice that only the highest gods make.

That means Loki is not the highest god.

Besides, I’ve never seen a really strong guy who jokes around like this behind his back.

“I don’t care what kind of pranks you get into here. “I’m a bit busy.”

The Excalibur aimed at Damdeok began to glow softly.

“So let’s finish it quickly.”

[Excalibur activates the attribute !]

[All stats double for 10 minutes!]

Taaat!

Damdeok’s body jumped out quickly.

Loki was still smiling brightly.

Wow!! thud!!

Etin used his huge body as a shield to block Loki.

A huge shadow appeared in an instant.

“Get out of my way!!”

Damdeok gathered his ice attribute mana to its limit.

On the surface of Excalibur. Frost began to form.

I would say that everything in Niflheim only works on ice attribute attacks.

Damdeok raised Excalibur, which had turned into a single block of ice, with all his might.

Excalibur is twice as heavy as usual. Damdeok swung his sword with all his might towards Etin’s head.

“I can’t control my strength right now, so don’t die!!”

Kwaang!!

Along with the sound of the explosion, white snow powder was scattered.

Damdeok, who was thrown back by the tremendous shock, covered his mouth with his sleeve and stared straight ahead.

“Ugh, I can’t see anything.”

Everything is hazy due to the large amount of falling snow.

I saw a notification window vaguely floating in front of my eyes.

[ skill has been created!]

“oh! It was good. New skill… !”

Damdeok was happy without even realizing it.

I guessed it from when I learned attribute mana, but I never thought a new skill would appear so quickly.

Flame slash followed by iceberg slash.

After all, these were skill names worthy of being praised as the god of the sword.

‘Isn’t this something like Thunder Slash coming later?’

A pleasant laugh leaked out.

At the same time, confidence in the previous attack also increased.

‘If it had this much destructive power, you’d be quite scared, right?’

When you feel satisfied with the destructive power that has become stronger due to Excalibur’s characteristic effects.

The snow powder slowly cleared away.

As expected, Etin was crouching down.

“… “You’re not going to end up signing the priest contract because you’re upset, right?”

Damdeok approached cautiously, feeling slightly worried.

“… hey. Ettin? I didn’t act violently on purpose. know? It’s all about saving the world, so you understand… what?”

Damdeok’s footsteps as he approached suddenly stopped.

The crouching Etin was slowly stretching his arms.

The guy wasn’t crouching because he was attacked.

Loki was grinning in Ettin’s strong arms.

“you… To protect Loki… .”

Loki’s gloves were encrusted with purple amethyst, and Ettin’s eyes were also dyed the same purple.

“Haha! I was really surprised by this. “I never thought a nameless god would have this much destructive power.”

Loki gave a thumbs up as if it was amazing.

Damdeok carefully stepped back.

‘Damn, I poured all my mana into it.’

Whether it was water attribute or ice attribute, all attribute mana was depleted due to the attack just now.

“Good good. “I heard that embarrassed face is the funniest thing.”

Loki laughed as if he was having fun.

Shut the snout! I wanted to hit him, but as long as Etin was holding on, there was no way.

Loki must have been quite amused to see Damdeok frowning, so he opened his mouth in a very patronizing tone.

“Giggle. Hey buddy. Shall I tell you a secret?”

“… What.”

Although he didn’t like Loki’s light attitude, Damdeok couldn’t do anything differently.

‘I have no choice but to buy some time until I can think of a solution.’

Loki spoke even more excitedly at Damdeok’s shocked expression.

“From what I see, there is almost no difference in skill between you and me. “No, honestly, maybe you’re a little stronger?”

Why are you suddenly saying something like that?

Damdeok asked with a suspicious look.

“… so?”

“But you can never subdue Etin. But as you can see, I can keep Ettin under my command. “Don’t you want to know how I did it?”

huh. I don’t want to know.

Just look at it and you’re not proud of yourself.

But still, Damdeok had to ask.

“Huh, okay. “How did you bring Ettin into submission?”

“Kkkkk, that’s right. “This is it!”

Loki stretched out his right fist forward as if he were proud.

The magic gloves studded with amethyst were shining brightly.

whatever.

It was Damdeok who could barely hold back what he wanted to say.

“… “What is that?”

“Hey, hey buddy. Listen carefully. “We gods are making a huge mistake.”

“What mistake?”

“Think about it carefully. The gods have only worshiped divine power and looked down on mana. Even though it was also given to us by Mother Gaia!”

Yes, I know.

That’s probably the main reason why the gods gave mana to humans.

But what is that?

“But look at this! Mana never lags behind divine power! Rather, when you combine numerous attribute mana into one, you can create tremendous synergy!”

Five-colored elemental mana began to flow from Loki’s magic gloves.

“I studied for a long time. And I can finally control all elemental mana!”

Loki raised his fist high.

Among the five-colored elements that flowed out, pitch-black mana stuck out its head.

“And this is the difference between you and me! No, it’s the difference between all the gods and me!”

Excited, Loki drew out black mana and swung it at Etin.

Grumble!

Etin, startled, took a step back.

It seemed like he was quite afraid of that black mana.

Loki shouted confidently.

“How are you doing, buddy? Are you getting a feel for it now? The important thing in Niflheim is not ice attribute mana. “It is this dark mana.”

Damdeok tilted his head.

“… “That’s dark mana?”

Loki shouted, smiling triumphantly.

“okay! It’s the mana of darkness! “Managi giggles that ordinary gods can’t even see.”

“Oh really? Could it be that dark mana… .”

Grumble!

A black flame erupted from Damdeok’s hand.

Loki’s face was colored with astonishment.

“Yes, how could you…” ?”

“what. this is right?”

Black flame obtained by defeating Karos, the god of black flame, in Atlaum.

A grin appeared on Damdeok’s lips.

“Tell me sooner, friend. So then round 2 starts now?”
