Episode 498:
The first button.
How many people can describe a turf war like that?
To discover the deepest level, to reach the archdukes, to appease the archdukes, to defeat Noname.
At every moment, countless humans and monsters were separated.
The steps he took were made with such sacrifice, and Taehyun did not know that either.
Normally, I would have been angry.
What’s with you guys?
Just on the topic of sculpture.
[Are you disparaging all those sacrifices?]
‘…!!’
[Do you want to say that?]
Noname’s voice seemed to be laughing after reading Taehyun’s thoughts.
Right now at this moment.
Noname’s attitude was different from when he was in an Elven body.
‘…Now I can’t even think as I want.’
The first thing to do is to figure out where this place is.
Taehyun shook off the remaining thoughts in his head.
[Don’t worry. The body has already disappeared.]
‘Do you think I will believe that at face value?’
If that’s the case, we can only assume that Noname’s intelligence has degenerated.
Even if I had a ten-year-old child in front of me, I wouldn’t be so naive.
[Hmm. [My disbelief in God goes beyond that of Lucifer.]
‘It’s unpleasant to keep hearing this.’
Image world? Personal space?
Taehyun thought this as he tried to figure out the space he was in.
[Well, you were that kind of person from the beginning. Don’t worry, this place is like the remnants of the world of imagination.]
‘…remnants?’
I ended up questioning something unexpected.
Noname continued his explanation in a satisfied voice, saying that he was finally ready to have a conversation.
[Doppelganger. Didn’t the guy you call that destroy the world of images?]
‘….’
Usually.
The collapse of the world of images means extinction.
[However, he will restore my world quickly. This is a guy whose name is the one who brought God to his knees.]
‘….’
[You still don’t believe me like this? You have won. Well, there will be a price of downfall in return.]
These were not pleasant words.
I barely managed to throw away the Underworld King’s spell.
Even so, we are still at a disadvantage to fight a tribal war.
It was a painful loss that not one, but all of the Grand Dukes were destroyed.
[Kim Tae-hyun. A crushing fate will follow you too.]
‘I can’t even laugh anymore.’
Plans after the turf war quickly appeared and disappeared in Taehyun’s mind.
It was because I didn’t want to be ridiculed by Noname anymore.
[There is nothing to worry about. Princes of the Underworld. These stones were forged harder than God knew. If there is enough opportunity, you will soon regain your original strength.]
‘Easier said than done.’
Excuse me.
I know how many Archdemons he hunted before he regained his status as an Archduke.
At that time, the turf war was in full swing, so I didn’t feel bad about hunting down the monsters of the underworld.
Now that I had signed contracts with all the Archdukes, I felt like it was a waste to even have one of the highest level ones.
In addition, the Grand Dukes grew incomparably before during the Lucifer War and the No Name War.
It was difficult to upgrade all nine Archdukes with just the demons of the Underworld.
However, it was unreasonable to start a tribal war with a force that was not fully equipped.
[Hmm. He’s a small-minded guy who peeked into God’s memories.]
‘I wish you wouldn’t say it back because it’s annoying?’
The plan went awry due to an unexpected variable called Noname.
Without realizing it, I had developed a crooked attitude.
[Even though it’s just a piece, didn’t you break this body? In particular, the guy called Doppelganger even committed the blasphemous act of eating God.]
He ate No Name.
Taehyun’s eyes wavered at those words.
I don’t know because I lost consciousness immediately after casting the reverse summon.
Doppelganger.
If only he had succeeded in preying on Noname.
‘…no way.’
[Okay, I guess I’m finally coming to my senses now. Although you will be downgraded for a while, you will achieve even greater growth in return for eating the piece of God. If that power extends to the contracted princes, it would be enough to upgrade them.]
‘…It’s like giving medicine in exchange for a bottle. So, are you saying we can now restore our broken relationship?’
[It’s not like that. Didn’t I tell you there wasn’t much time?]

‘….’
Taehyun rolled his head as he looked at the shimmering brilliance.
Pieces of God I have encountered so far.
Although they were all imperfect, they ultimately had a significant impact.
The same goes for the sculpture in front of you.
[Now I finally understand what you are saying. There is nothing to lose, so listen and then make your own decision.]
After a brief pause, Noname’s voice continued.
[King of the Underworld. The man who chose you as the key is dead.]
‘…!!’
In your head.
Incredible words flowed in the form of language.
A series of information that is difficult to handle.
Tight.
Taehyun closed his eyes.
* * *
[This is the truth.]
Let the no-name talk stop.
Huh.
Taehyun exhaled.
It was too much information to handle.
It was something I didn’t want to deal with.
Nevertheless, we already know that we cannot avoid that responsibility.
[Do you want to run away?]
‘….’
Taehyun couldn’t answer immediately.
just.
‘Does Lucifer know?’
So I just asked.
[Lucifer. Is it just him?]
Noname answered playfully.
Rosaria was chosen by the Underworld King as his representative.
Jormungand succeeded in transplanting the power of the upper world into his body.
At least three of the Archdukes know the truth of what they have just heard.
Perhaps Gilper, who defied the power of reincarnation, might also know.
Words have power.
There is power in names.
‘I didn’t know it was all related to God’s magic.’
Also, the reason why they did not tell Taehyun all the information.
Thanks to the information Noname shared, I understood everything.
[Don’t worry. [This is a world where the right to speak equal to the power of existence is allowed.]
It is said that what can be remembered outside of the information heard here will be limited.
‘Whenever you decide to kill me. ‘There must be a reason for saying this now, right?’
[I just wanted to let you know. I don’t want the being who coveted the piece of God to collapse without proper information.]
‘You are certain that I will collapse.’
[It depends on what you do. The time has come.]
Hwaaaaa-.
The intensity of the scattered brilliance gradually faded.
I wish for another piece of power.
I look forward to seeing you again.
I am a being who walks the path of a Godslayer.
Tiring.
[Quest ‘Territory War’ has been completed.]
[Quest rewards are given.]
[Strength…]
[Stamina…]
[Speed…]
[Magic power… .]
[Divine power….]
[Skill….]
All sorts of messages came to mind, but I quietly closed my eyes.
Not anymore now.
I didn’t want to think about anything.
* * *
The realm of the fairy king Elven.
A small tombstone was created next to Shinsoo.
Cody Cruz.
A man who will be remembered as the strongest player and perhaps the strongest human being who possessed a piece of God in his body.
“Well, whatever it is, it’s the final choice.”
Thank you for your hard work.
Grrrr.
A drink from the underworld that Taehyun took from Tolkien.
A liquid called tar was spilled on the tombstone.
A small tribute to the man she admired in the past was enough.
* * *
The completed turf war changed many things.
No name.
This is because all the great dukes who faced the pieces of the One God were defeated.
Taehyun was no exception.
His physical abilities had dropped to a level that had never been seen before, and
because the power contained within the piece was so enormous, it was taking longer than expected to digest it.
The magic left behind by the remnants was still there, and much of the information I heard from Noname was vague.
[Did you know you would make that kind of expression?]
Taehyun, who was quietly looking at the status window, heard a familiar voice in his head.
“Elven.”
Ssssss.
She appeared in the sacred water.
Unlike the princes who rested in their respective castles, he was recovering faster than anyone else using divine water.
The healing spring water was also currently being used only for her.
Glancing.
She asked while looking at Cody Cruz’s tombstone.
[Was this person really that big to you?]
I shook my head and clearly drew a line.
“I was thinking about my future plans.”
[How long has it been since the turf war ended and now it’s a tribal war? It is appropriate to say that you are a battle fanatic.]
Taehyun shrugged his shoulders, letting out the Elven words.
You’re a battle fanatic.
It was a title that did not suit someone who was a pacifist.
‘Maybe it’s the greedy Igmun or Orgal.’
[How long will it take to digest the piece of God?]
“Half a year at the earliest.”
[…Until then, there will be no Archduke in the Underworld. I also need to keep an eye on the movements of the upper world.]
“I guess so.”
This was the reason why Taehyun stayed in the realm of the fairies.
Just by being near an Elven who has assimilated a divine beast, the digestion rate increases dramatically.
Even if she was directly assimilated, it would not make much of a difference, so her recovery was prioritized.
[If you think about it alone, you won’t find the answer. Wouldn’t you come up with better ideas if you talked to other guys while looking at their faces?]
“You’re giving advice that’s not like you. Tolkien is repairing the dragon slayer sword. “Afterwards, the status window needs to be checked and there is no time to fool around.”
[If you wait for that idiot, you never know how many years will pass by.]
“….”
[If it’s space travel, don’t worry. Bonyo’s magic power has returned quite a bit. As of now, recovery will not be affected even if the contractor does not stay here.
[Tolkien If you want to wait until that idiot comes, I won’t stop you. ‘It doesn’t seem bad to cool off for a while.’]
“….”
Taehyun was lost in thought for a moment.
Repairing the dragon slayer sword and inspecting the status window are essential.
But, as she said, it was a task with no way of knowing when it would end.
However, it is also difficult to talk to a person who is sensitive while working.’
The thought didn’t last long.
It was a waste of time to sit around and wait.
“good. “I’ll come back for a moment.”
[Hehe. Well thought out. Where would you like to go first?]
Elven asked excitedly, as if he were the manager of an amusement ride.
“Rosaria.”
Since she had the weakest body among the Archdukes, she couldn’t help but worry about the aftereffects of being attacked by Noname.
[She will be happy.]
The Elven waved his hand.
Kwaaa-.
A huge gate was created next to the Shinsu.
“If Tolkien comes, tell him to wait a moment. “It won’t take long.”
[Don’t worry. Bonyo also has the kindness to offer her a cup of tea.]
Taehyun crossed the gate, waving his hand at her, who responded obediently.
About 5 minutes passed like that.
From afar, I saw a dwarf walking carrying a bundle of balsa on his back.
[Maybe it’s because my legs are short, so I’m late.]
Boom.
Tolkien put down the huge bundle in front of the Elven and looked around.
They are looking for Taehyun.
[Hey, stop talking bullshit and bring your brothers.]
Tolkien, who had regained his confidence as a meister while living in the underworld, spoke with full arrogance.
This was the result of Taehyun praising it as a treasure of the underworld.
[You stupid, bearded dwarf.]
[Hey, I’m sure your brother warned you not to call me that.]
[Hehehe. Is the contractor your parent?]
[This… Fairy Babbler dares to regard Meister as something…]
Grumpy.
Tolkien’s muscles bulged.
However, no matter how defeated you are, the opponent is the Archduke.
In the eyes of the Elven, Tolkien’s attitude was just laughable.
[You won’t know. How eagerly Bonyo had been waiting for this day.]
After the Lucifer and No Name matches.
The Elven was in extreme helplessness.
He was hiding his anxious state in case Taehyun noticed.
[The contractor is no longer here.]
Kwaaaa-.
Colorless magic overflowed from the Elven’s body.
Magic was mixed with speculation.
[Huh…?]
Only then did Tolkien notice something strange.
Of course, another brother, Typhon, returned to his territory.
By now, Taehyun, who was supposed to mediate the situation on his behalf, was nowhere to be seen.
[Tongue brothers…!! Brother Taehyun!!]
Tolkien shouted Taehyun’s name.
The loud voice echoed, but Taehyun showed no sign of appearing.
[It’s stupid. Even the contractor allowed it.]
[What…?!!]
What kind of bullshit is this?
What do you mean you allowed it?
Listening to Tolkien shouting like that.
[Shall we start by tearing off that dirty beard?]
The branch of the Divine Tree bound Tolkien.
