Episode 232
God’s Way (1)
This is something different.
I’ve done countless loads so far, but I felt something was different about this load. It was a different feeling from the strange sensation he felt when he first loaded Transcendent God.
‘It’s huge.’
Although I only loaded one person.
I felt a powerful force that was as powerful as when I loaded three characters from Celtic mythology at the same time, or maybe even more.
Lu Ravada is the god of Celtic mythology, and Balor is no less a devil than him, so how can this be?
It seemed like there was something hidden in the beings called transcendental gods that I didn’t know about.
The target drawing was successful. As I was so confident, I opened the status window.
Tiring.
Name: Jinjeongdo
Level: 809
Mana available: 817
Strength: 808 Stamina: 906 Reflexes: 701 Mana Responsiveness: 800
Talent
<Divinity-lv.3>, <Death-lv.3>, <Fighting-Lv.3>, <Necromancer-lv.3>, <Spear-lv.3>, <Monarch-lv.3>, <Magic-lv.2>… … and 13 others.
Possessed Skills
<Heart of the Underworld>, <Cerberus Summoning>, <Styx’s Oath>, <Soul Collection>… … and 16 others.
The 12 gods of Olympus, who can be said to be the pinnacle of the Greek gods.
Among them, there were three most special gods, and it is said that they ruled three different worlds.
Sky, sea and underground.
When two immature younger brothers fought each other to rule the sky, there was the eldest brother of the gods who silently walked into the underworld, which was the most reluctant place.
Regardless of the truth, some people shunned him as ominous and others trembled with fear, calling him death. Some called him cunning, others called him cold.
however.
Evaluations of him were different, but there was one thing that all the gods who knew him agreed on.
That’s right.
<It’s not a space I really like. I need to fix it a little bit.>
The point was that he was the possessor of overwhelming force that even God could not dare to surpass.
The master of the underworld, the world of the dead.
Hades.
He was like that.
Jeong Do clenched his fists tightly.
thud!
Black mana began to bloom around the center, and the bottom of the tower cracked under its influence.
Enormous mana.
Tangible black mana soared into the sky like a cloud. The thick scent of death began to fill the interior of the tower.
“… … “What is that?”
Cheok Jun-gyeong muttered as if it was absurd. The way she behaved just now was beyond common sense.
The mana cloud that erupted from Jeongdo’s body began to soar toward the ceiling and soon took shape.
A huge castle.
In the blink of an eye, the black mana turned into castle. It was a very large castle with an old-fashioned feel.
<Heart of the underworld. It is my own castle that can turn any space into an environment identical to the underworld. Now it’s a scene I like.>
The identity of the huge castle was Hades’ skill <Heart of the Underworld>.
This skill, like Joan of Arc’s <Declaration of Sanctuary>, has the effect of turning a certain space into terrain that is advantageous to oneself.
Of course, its effect and scope were at a level that would make it difficult to compare it to the <Sanctuary Proclamation>.
“Kweeeek!”
The first to react to the transformed space was Archangel Michael. He suddenly fell to his knees and started coughing up a bowl of blood. The space of opposites began to tear through Michael’s insides. He stumbled and soon fell to the floor.
“Hahaha!”
On the other hand, <Eternal Life> erupted in maniacal laughter. He seemed to really like the current situation.
“Such a dense energy of death! Unexpected result, but very good. come. Calm too. And kill me. Otherwise… … .”
Boom!
When <Youngsaeng> burst out in anger, the two heavenly beings surrounding him flew out. <Eternal Life> immediately flew towards Jeongdo. He said, shaking his big fist.
“You die!”
<He’s a guy who enjoys talking nonsense. I will make sure to take that guy’s soul.>
thud!
Jeong-do countered the fist of Yeongsaeng reaching towards him with his fist. When the two fists met in the air, a shock wave exploded and a strong wind blew.
Hades laughed at that sight.
<This guy knows something. After all, if you’re a man, it’s your fist.>
Hades muttered that he was glad he wasn’t someone who used magic like Zeus or threw spears like Poseidon. He added that he liked the heavy fist and that he would use it as a sentinel of the underworld.
Hot!
As the two fists clashed and engaged in a power struggle, Jeong Do opened his fist and grabbed <Youngsaeng>’s wrist. Then, he pulled towards himself with all his might and aimed for <Eternal>’s solar plexus with his opposite hand.
“Tsk!”
Embarrassed, <Youngsaeng> covered her chest with her free arm.
puck.
The punch shattered his arm and exploded into his chest. He was so shocked that he should have jumped away, but he couldn’t because one of his arms was being held by Do-do. In the end, all of <Eternal Life>’s ribs were broken.
‘It’s far.’

If it had been any other person, it would have been a blow that would have resulted in instant death, but the opponent was <Eternal Life>. A wound of this magnitude probably wouldn’t even be a scratch.
Jeongdo tugged on his arm once more. <Youngsaeng>’s shoulder blade was dislocated and his arm was hanging around helplessly.
This was the beginning of one-sided violence.
Jeong Do’s fist dug into <Youngsaeng>’s armpit and broke the bone, and Jeong Do’s kick broke <Youngsaeng>’s leg.
<Youngsaeng> also made several attacks towards Jeong-do, but since the situation was one-sided from the first attack, his attacks were not that sharp. To some extent, I was able to avoid his attacks just by moving my upper body a little.
Although it was <Eternal Life>, which could send away the Archangel with one blow, it was infinitely helpless against the load of the three main gods of Olympus. <Youngsaeng>’s body collapsed with each blow that carried enormous force.
but.
<… … What. This guy. What happened to your body?>
No matter how powerful the attack, it could not cause <Eternal Life> to die. That wasn’t the only problem.
Swish.
<Hmm?!>
For the first time since the engagement, Jeong Do’s fist split the air. Just before the fist hit his head, <Youngsaeng> quickly turned his head.
“Hello. I’m finally starting to get used to it. “He seems like a ruthless guy.”
Yeongsaeng recovered from the wounds on his entire body in an instant, as if the beatings he had received so far were a lie. He had such incredible resilience that it felt like he had turned back time.
<Eternal Life>’s eyes shone darkly.
“But this won’t do. If there’s nothing more to show, it’s really… … “Oops.”
Sigh!
He sensed something was wrong with <Youngsaeng>’s behavior and used various methods to send <Youngsaeng> flying far away. <Eternal Life>, which was pushed back, was only able to stop after breaking three tower pillars.
<This means that the place where the King’s heart is embodied can withstand this much of the fist filled with the energy of death. Not only that, but they all recover and even fight back. Even Zeus would have lost his immortality if he had been beaten that much in this space.>
It goes without saying, but a fist imbued with the energy of Hades could not have been ordinary.
Talent <Death-lv.3>.
In the space where the King’s heart unfolds, Hades was able to bring death to all living things he touched. Although it had never been done before, let alone a mortal, it was powerful enough to cause even gods to lose their immortality.
<This guy. It wasn’t just immortality. It was a miracle from the beginning. under. That’s interesting. It actually exists.>
Even in the world of gods, he was a talent regarded as a legend, but Hades was confident. Even if he was Gaia, the source of all life, he could not have been hit like this. It was a feat that only someone who defied providence could accomplish.
‘… … ‘Hades doesn’t work either.’
I was fully aware that the Miracle of the Beginning was a talent that would make even the transcendental gods freak out. However, it was very surprising that he could not inflict such a small amount of damage. He had thought that at least a god of the underworld would be able to deal damage that would take tens or hundreds of years to recover from, but it seems he was wrong.
‘Now that things have come to this, the only thing I can trust is <Extinction>.’
Jeongdo muttered bitterly to himself.
Just as violence can be suppressed by stronger violence, the only thing that can suppress the primordial miracle is a stronger primordial miracle.
To be honest, Jeong-do had already mastered <Annihilation-lv.3>. When a notification popped up that I had cleared all the acquisition conditions for <Annihilation>, I briefly checked the status window and was able to clearly see that <Annihilation-lv.3> had been placed in the talent column.
And even the words (stabilization work in progress) written next to it!
Yes. Jeongdo was still wearing the stabilization necklace he had received from Winry. Jeong-do couldn’t help but sigh as he put his hand to his neck.
“under. Even stabilization work during the battle? No matter how you think about it, it’s crazy.”
Entering stabilization work without a collar is extremely painful. I’ve achieved <Patience-lv.3> and it’s gotten a lot better, but it still hurts like crazy. Of course, there was no time to focus on anything else.
‘I’m not some kind of Guan Yu.’
Did you say that Guan Yu played baduk when he was receiving surgery after being shot with a poisoned arrow? It would have been nice if that was the case. It was obvious that the pain of tearing raw flesh would be laughable compared to the pain of stabilizing talent!
“If you don’t come, I will go!”
<Youngsaeng> rushed towards Jeongdo. Jeong Do caught the flying kick with one hand and pierced <Youngsaeng>’s abdomen once again. And the abdomen regenerated in an instant.
Damn it.
As expected, there was no answer with Hades’ abilities. If he had possessed another miracle from the beginning, he could have easily defeated Hades with his overwhelming force, but why is it called <eternal life>?
A fist flew in again, aiming for <Youngsaeng>’s head. However, the results of this attack were completely different from previous attacks.
“Wow!”
“Kaaak!”
Not only <Eternal Life>, but also Jeongdo also made people groan. Instead of crushing <Youngsaeng>’s face with his fist, the blade of his hand dug into his abdomen.
“I got used to the timing. Even if you can’t avoid it, you can deal with it at the same time. Now it will be a fight to see who is stronger.”
“Damn it.”
If you fight for resilience, of course you will lose. No, the load will end midway and you will definitely be killed in an instant.
The extent of his decision was strengthened. Yes, I had no choice but to do it. There was no other way. Jeong-do gritted his teeth.
Fighting.
The necklace that was hanging around my neck was torn off in an instant. And immediately, a bloody aura bloomed around Jeongdo’s body.
Kang!
“hmm?!”
<Eternal Life>’s fist was blocked by red energy. And taking advantage of that opportunity, Jeong-do once again threw <Youngsaeng> into the wall with a kick.
“… … crazy.”
But Jeongdo was not happy at all. It was an unexpected situation.
The identity of the blood-red energy is <Dragon Blood Awakening>.
It was the best recovery skill and buff skill that was activated only when Jeongdo was in a near-death state.
in other words.
‘As soon as I took off the necklace, I fell into a state of death.’
crazy.
Jeong Do realized that he was completely mistaken. He thought he would only repeat the pain he had been through so far.
‘The higher the talent level, the more painful it was.’
Level 2 was much more painful than stabilizing level 1. Level 3 was much more painful than level 2. And when stabilizing a talent that seems to be rare even among level 3, you may end up on the brink of death.
A miracle from the beginning.
The ultimate talent.
So what are the pains that come with acquiring this talent?
The answer was immediately apparent. The blood-red energy disappeared in an instant. It was a much shorter time than when <Dragon Blood Awakening> was activated normally. The degree was frozen in place.
“… … .”
If it was too painful, there was no way to scream. At least I could do nothing but twitch.
And just like that, countless notification windows rained down in front of my eyes.
You have acquired <Miracle of the Beginning <Annihilation-lv.3>. Stabilization begins.>
<Warning. This talent is off-limits. Talent <Communication-lv.4> ignores the rules. The bypass is successful.>
<Warning. It is a talent that far exceeds the current user’s physical capabilities. Physical decay accelerates.>
<Warning. If you fail to acquire the talent <Extinction-lv.3>, your soul will disappear.>
<Talent <Communication> will attempt mediation. failure. Try again. failure. User skill level is low.>
<Warning. warning. warning. warning… … .>
My mind was fading.
It seemed like the notification window kept popping up, but I couldn’t see it properly. Consciousness gradually disappeared.
I see
This is what it means to die.
haha. When he started working as a hunter, he was always prepared for death, but he never thought he would die by suicide.
I was complacent.
I thought that with <communication>, I could overcome any obstacle. Excessive faith led him to recklessly engage in gambling, and as a result, he failed at gambling.
In my fading consciousness, as my heart stopped, the last notification window came into view.
<He passed away.>
… …
To that extent, my consciousness completely disappeared.
And after a while.
A notification window that I couldn’t see kept popping up.
<Lord of the dead. The gods of the underworld are pleased with your death. I bless you for taking a step forward.>
<The god who built the world trusts you completely. Congratulations!>
<The gods of the underworld do not recognize you as a resident of the underworld. Acquired the skill <Rejection from the Underworld>.>
… …
<You have acquired a skill related to immortality. The conditions for obtaining <Divine Prestige> have been met.>
… …
<You have acquired talent <Xinwi-lv.1>. The level of the body rises rapidly. Ability limit is unlocked.>
<Talent <Communication-lv.4> is activated. Successfully stabilizes the body. Acquired the talent <Vanishment-lv.3>.>
As the path to becoming a god opens.
Excited.
My heart, which had stopped for some time, started beating again.
