I Became a Part-time Employee For Gods Chapter 75

#75. The state of half ice and half black (2)

Inside a huge ice castle.

Etin was sitting on the frozen throne, looking intently at Damdeok.

His eyes were overflowing with unprecedented warmth.

To the point where it feels a bit burdensome.

“… So, I am the hero god who will restore peace to Niflheim… ?”

Damdeok asked awkwardly.

From the moment they met again on the cliff, Etin and the ice giants showed respect to Damdeok by calling him ‘Hero God’.

Etin invited Damdeok to go to his kingdom with him, and the message of good and evil that appeared before his eyes was good.

‘It’s not even a bad intention. ‘It’s a good sign when the person you need to persuade as a priest shows you favor.’

Damdeok had no reason to refuse.

That’s how I swallowed Bingryong’s heart and came right here… .

“Yes. “You are definitely our clan’s hero god.”

Etin’s resonant voice echoed throughout the ice castle.

The ice giants lined up on both sides bowed their heads to show respect to the king’s words.

Damdeok was dumbfounded.

‘Why on earth am I called a hero god?’

A title that no matter how many times I hear it, I cannot get used to it.

Before I could reply, Etin spoke again.

“There is a prophecy that is passed down only in Niflheim. A person who has reached the state of half ice and half black. “I will defeat the evil dragon of the snowfield and save the country covered in ice.”

An even deeper question appeared on Damdeok’s face.

A state of half ice and half blackness?

What on earth is that?

After that, the companions did the same.

“What… ice?”

Baekgureum tilted his head.

“Banbing Bingshina.”

Adele Sharon gave a scolding.

“White clouds, Adele. Be quiet.”

Ju Soo-yul quietly closed his eyes and muttered.

Either way, the two of them are fighting fiercely. Damdeok glanced back for a moment and then looked at Etin again.

“What is the state of half ice and half black?”

Surely you don’t mean half ice and half black salt, like half seasoning and half fried food?

Hey, probably not… .

But Etin spoke with a more solemn expression than anyone else, showing his rock-like face.

“Half ice, half black salt.”

“… yes?”

Damdeok asked back in bewilderment.

“… I heard that young gods these days use words like this. Wasn’t it?”

‘No. Wow.’ When I see Etin clearing his throat, why do I suddenly think of my distant great-grandfather? .

Etin spoke again with a solemn expression.

“The state of half-ice and half-black refers to the ice covered in your left hand and the sword of black flame held in your right hand.”

Damdeok did not readily understand the meaning of those words.

“Is there really such a prophecy?”

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand that I was the hero god of Niflheim.

‘Maybe it’s Korea. I don’t have the energy to worry about other dimensions either.’

But Ettin was adamant.

“Of course. Another decisive proof is that you defeated the evil dragon of the snowfield. “There is no evidence more conclusive than this.”

At those words, the ice giants lined up on both sides shook their huge heads.

Damdeok was embarrassed.

If it’s Bingryong, it’s not him, but Thor, the god of thunder… .

“Oh, that’s… .”

But before he could say anything, Ettin was engrossed in the story.

“All living things in the snowfield have suffered all kinds of persecution from that evil dragon. For a very long time. They tried to subdue it for thousands of years, but the two-legged giants were unable to catch the winged evil dragon. But you did it all at once… !”

Ettin’s blue eyes sparkled with emotion.

It was really burdensome.

“No, that means… .”

Damdeok decided that if he explained that it wasn’t the case, problems wouldn’t arise later.

But the next moment, Damdeok had to close his half-open mouth again at the words Etin spoke.

“Now that the hero god has appeared, I will grant whatever you wish.”

Will you listen to anything?

Damdeok’s eyes turned to the system window.

[Please select the entity to register as .]

‘I heard that the third guardian is the king of a clan, so I thought it would be very difficult to persuade him.’

Maybe, really, maybe things will turn out easier than you think.

Damdeok asked with a brighter face.

“Do you really grant all my wishes?”

“Of course. I, Charlotte Etin, pledge to gladly accept any request as long as you bring about the salvation of Niflheim. Even if it means my life.”

Etin’s voice was extremely serious.

It was unconditional to say something like that.

‘It’s really easy to register, right? Then right away… !’

“Become my priest… ”

“But before that, there is one condition.”

“… yes?”

Damdeok looked at Etin with a very disappointed face.

Well then.

There is no way these damn guardians are registered all at once.

“What are the conditions… .”

Etin smiled at Damdeok’s helpless appearance.

“It’s nothing special. “I clearly saw with my own eyes that you took out the heart of the evil dragon, but in fact, I only saw the state of half-ice and half-black for a split second.”

‘Oh, that’s right.’

If you touch Bingryong’s intestines with your bare hands, they will instantly freeze.

That was why Damdeok’s left hand was surrounded by ice attribute mana at the moment Etin appeared.

‘Because the heart was in the deepest place among the organs.’

Moreover, the part to be cut out was so large that the sword was also coated with black flame for efficiency.

It was natural to say that Ettin had only seen the state of half-ice and half-black for a moment.

“Then half ice, black salt… “No, anyway, can I just show it to you again?”

“Yes, I would appreciate it. I am not doubting you, but please remember that you must clearly confirm your qualifications as a hero god for the safety of the kingdom. “After confirmation, I will definitely grant your wish.”

“All right.”

Damdeok’s face brightened again.

It’s not that difficult at all.

Just put ice attribute mana on your left hand,

Kiiing!

Just put black flame attribute mana on Excalibur, which transformed Snow White… .

Grumble!

“Oh oh!”

“It’s brilliant!”

The ice giants lined up on the left and right let out exclamations.

The left fist covered in ice, the sword in the right hand sparkling with black flames.

Damdeok’s current appearance was exactly the state of half ice and half black.

“How is it?”

At Damdeok’s question, Etin nodded with a satisfied expression, then suddenly frowned.

“hmm… But hero god. It would be a bit difficult to call it a state of half ice and half blackness. “Are you still unable to handle ?”

Circle Auror… ?

I swear it was the first time I had ever heard that word.

“Hmm. Well, the prophecy says that when the hero god appears, it is at an immature stage, so maybe Niflheim is a part of the training process. let’s go. Hero god. “I will pass on everything about our clan to you.”

Etin raised his huge body.

thud! Coo! thud!

Damdeok didn’t know until he came right in front of him.

What is and why do I suddenly need to learn it?

However, unlike Damdeok, who was confused, Ju Soo-yul’s expression as he watched was more joyful than ever.

Abbreviated as .

It generally uses ‘mana’ as an energy source, but it is said to be very different from .

“For example, something like this.”

Ettin’s huge fist was surrounded by fluttering mana.

At first glance, it looked the same as Damdeok’s method… It wasn’t.

‘what. ‘Something feels strangely different.’

Damdeok looked closely, very closely at the mana wrapped around Etin’s fist.

It was strange.

‘Normal mana wavers in a light form, making it easy to release at any time… .’

Etin’s mana seemed extremely heavy.

No, Mana was barely moving, as if trapped in a frame.

As if there were layers of transparent membrane wrapped around the fist. A state of suspension as if it had become solid.

Honestly, I was a little surprised.

A form of mana that has never been seen before.

If it was a glitter pool with regular mana flowing through it, it felt like the Auror had solidified the glitter pool.

“Did you notice? Hero god. literally means energy specialized for close combat by compressing mana to the limit. “It has a different form from the mana of a wizard who throws a fireball.”

Compressing mana.

Was that possible?

‘It looks several times, no, dozens of times heavier than normal mana.’

If a wizard wields something like that, it will definitely slow down and make it difficult to cast.

So, it would be called specialized mana for close combat.

It was very practical.

“This… Niflheim, is this a method only used by ice giants?”

Etin shook his head.

“That’s not true, but it’s definitely our clan that started it all.”

It is said that the giant clan naturally developed bare-handed martial arts by taking advantage of their physique, and it was common for them to crush their enemies by swinging their hands and feet without weapons.

‘In addition, he could instinctively manipulate mana, so it would have been an ideal condition for developing the .’

Damdeok was sure.

This will serve as an excellent foundation for becoming stronger in the future.

“Please tell me more details.”

“Of course it will.”

Ettin willingly began to tell me various things about Aurors.

He kindly bent down to Damdeok’s eye level and showed him how to use the auror with his fingers, adding a detailed explanation.

“me too! “I want to learn too!”

Baek Gu-reum hurriedly ran over and stood next to Dam-deok and participated in the class.

“Hey, you’re an Auror. I didn’t know mana could be used in that way. Atlaum was truly a city that knew nothing but magic. Sheesh, maybe I was a frog in a well.”

Adele Sharon chattered as if she was interested in another discovery about mana, and Jooyul quietly looked at Damdeok next to her.

After a while,

Ettin’s theory class on Aurors has ended. He said, slowly straightening his bent back.

“Aurors cannot be formed in an instant. “You must hold the mana heavily, press the held mana into a certain shape, and be able to maintain that frame at all times so that it does not break.”

White Cloud, who had been gathering mana in his fist, panted and relaxed.

“Ugh, it’s difficult. “This isn’t easy.”

Etin smiled.

“You have to remember the basics and keep trying. A child with white eyes. “You also seem to have a talent for swordsmanship, so if you work hard for about three years, you can become an Auror.”

“Eh? 3 girls?!”

Baekgureum was scared.

Beside him, Damdeok was quietly closing his eyes.

It’s concentrating.

Etin looked at Damdeok blankly.

“Hero God, with your abilities, you will be able to handle Aurors within a year or even a few months. “I hope he will become a good driving force and help bring salvation to Niflheim.”

Etin slightly bowed his head to show respect.

And then slowly turned around.

‘It will take a few months at the earliest, but at least a year in reality.’

Until then, he will have to wish that young god good luck.

‘But don’t make this old king wait too long.’

It was at that time that Etin took heavy steps and left the training ground.

“Wow! That’s it! “It’s a success!”

A cheerful cheer was heard from behind.

Etin’s eyes widened in disbelief.

‘No way, that can’t be…’ ?’

His huge body slowly turned around.

Damdeok, who was laughing and cheering, had a black aura wrapped around his hands.

The shape, texture, and even the energy it gave off were unmistakable in the form of a circle auror.

“This is ridiculous… .”

Damdeok looked at Etin with a surprised expression and grinned.

“Sowon, can I talk now?”
