407. Pantheon (4)
Conference hall.
The center of the pantheon, which we arrived at following Aria’s guidance, was a truly gigantic conference hall-like place.
Of course, now that Arya’s guidance has ended, it is unclear whether this is truly the pantheon’s meeting hall, but it did seem that way.
“… … .”
In fact, the ancient gods belonging to the pantheon were gathered around a huge round table-shaped structure.
‘really… … .’
and.
「… … .」
“The Dark God is very proud of you and would like to speak with you.”
“The Demon God feels deep interest in you and unexpected pleasure, and smiles with excitement.”
“When the Dragon God realizes that he has not seen you for a long time, he pouts his lips, feeling slightly disappointed.”
‘long time no see.’
Only then did I smile when I saw the faces of those I knew among the ancient gods.
Before I knew it, the God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God were sitting around a huge round table, all with pleasant smiles on their faces, silently expressing the joy of their reunion.
However, this does not mean that all the ancient deities at the center of the pantheon are favorable to this side.
‘Did some of them hide their true selves due to their divinity?’
Perhaps some of the ancient gods of the pantheon did not want to show their true selves to this side, so they hid their entire bodies in the light of divinity… … .
‘That’s okay.’
It was laughable.
Aren’t the people you see in front of you overwhelming beings with the immortality of conceptualization, imprinting the divinity of the concept itself in this universe?
Since they are ancient gods, even if they try to hide their status as gods, there is no way they can do so without borrowing the power of some myth or the supernormal abilities of a god.
And, in addition, because this group had ascended the Tower of Trials and become an ancient deity on their own, it was possible to immediately guess what level of divinity and spiritual status they had.
“… … .”
however… … .
“under.”
It was strange.
“really… … .”
Even if I am one of the ancient gods, I must feel some pressure as I am facing the mixed hostility of divinity from many ancient gods.
“This is absurd.”
However, despite the fact that quite a few of the ancient deities here radiated their divine light and created pressure, there was not a single feeling of tension.
“You’ve been saying that you’re displeased or something when you see me at the Tower of Trials, so I thought you had the power to make that statement.”
and… … .
“you.”
That means only one thing.
“The god of transcendence and death looks at the many ancient deities with a cold sneer.”
[─What kind of confidence did you have to tell me such bullshit? ]
The power of most of the ancient deities of the pantheon is similar to, or only slightly higher than, the level of deity possessed by this side.
‘At best, he is a god of epiphyte, or a little stronger than that.’
I feel it.
The level of divinity that most of the ancient gods emit as divinity beyond the huge round table is not that high compared to the divinity that this one possesses.
Even though this group has the fastest growth rate among the ancient gods, that is no reason to understand that their level of divinity is below expectations.
But… … .
“Some of the many ancient gods are looking at you and are very angry!”
“Some of the many ancient gods are looking at you and are very angry… … !」
“Some of the many ancient gods are looking at you and are very angry… … !」
Could it be that, contrary to our judgment, the majority of ancient gods do not think that way?
「… … .」
“The God of Arrogance shines with murderous and furious feelings toward you.”
“The God of Pride reveals great hostility toward you.”
“The eternal god feels humiliated, ashamed, and fearful of you.”
In an instant, multiple ancient deities unleashed their divinity mixed with anger, unleashing a level of power that could distort space itself.
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo co!
however… … .
“Don’t be a rip-off.”
When I saw that, all I could do was frown in astonishment.
“Divine <words> are used.”
“By consuming divine power, you can influence the real world with words.”
“However, a lot of sacred power is consumed in words that interfere with the laws of the world.”
《Put it away, everything. 》
The moment he uttered a sneer and declared the exclusion of divinity by activating the sacred <statement>, as if this wasn’t even tickling.
Jjijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijiji!
As it was, each flow of divine light poured out by the ancient gods was twisted and collapsed by the divine spirit.
Damn it -.
It’s not even just that.
Is this the result of the divine <Eun Spirit> twisting and collapsing the sacred flow of most of the ancient gods?
In the blink of an eye, some of the ancient deities revealed their true selves hidden by the light of divinity.
‘Okay, this is… … .’

Only then, with interest in my eyes, did I look at each and every one of those ancient deities whose divine veil had been lifted in detail.
‘Is this the true form of the God of Arrogance, the God of Arrogance, and the God of Eternity?’
That too for sure.
“The God of Arrogance is very displeased when he realizes that the veil of divinity has been lifted by you.”
[ you… … . A mean thing. How dare you think whose jade this is and try to capture it with those dirty eyes? Know your fraction. Garbage. ]
Only then does a handsome man with brilliant blond hair occupy one of the seats at the large round table, glowing blue with murderous intent.
“The god of pride feels deep humiliation that his status as divinity has been disturbed, even for a moment, by you.”
[ this! A hunting dog that is merely subordinate to the Tower of Trials… … ! Don’t you dare look at the masters of this universe! ]
Next to him, a white-haired man with an ungainly physique let out a roar of rage with his face turning red.
“When the eternal god senses that his divine status has been shaken by you, he expresses great fear, confidence, and hostility.”
[ … … understand. In the end, something as strange as the Tower of Trials created such impure pollution in this universe. It’s not worth saving anymore. ]
Suddenly, a man with black hair sitting across from him let out a calm voice and unleashed his gray spirit as if he were going to fight.
“I am completely opposed to the eternal god accepting you as the new main deity of the pantheon.”
[ under. It should have been this way from the beginning. That pollutant that upsets the balance of this universe is the new main deity of the pantheon? That can’t possibly make sense! That’s just an impurity that needs to be excluded! ]
It’s not even just that.
[ Don’t you know that giving up the seat of a new god to a dog on a leash that is merely subordinate to the Tower of Trials and being treated will lead to destruction? ]
After that, the God of Permanence let out a voice filled with a sense of crisis when he saw the God of Arrogance and the God of Pride also showing signs of agreement.
“The eternal god shows infinite hostility towards you and gradually increases his divine power.”
[The Tower of Trials, that strange monster also has the power to destroy the only concept in this universe, divinity, that even that strange monster could not obtain. ]
and.
[Han Seong-yoon. An ancient godhead, a vessel capable of possessing power beyond that. Don’t we all know where the impurities created by the Tower of Trials will end up? ]
It was then.
The moment when the eternal god spoke out in a voice filled with excitement or fear.
The expressions of some of the ancient deities on the Pantheon side who had been showing hostile feelings towards this side stiffened.
[It is something that cannot be categorized as a tower of trials or an ancient deity, but has a power close to omniscience and omnipotence. ]
By this point, most of the ancient gods in the pantheon would have definitely noticed.
“The God of Eternity answers with confidence about how strong you will become.”
[Isn’t he truly a transcendent person? ]
This means that only I can be reborn as a transcendent person after accumulating the myth <possibility of transcendence> and the supernormal abilities of necromancy.
***
In an instant, silence filled the conference hall.
‘No way, I never thought I’d come here and hear that sound… … .’
It was worth it.
‘I guess he was convinced that I would become a transcendent.’
Transcendant.
It is the final state that can only be achieved by reaching beyond the ancient divinity, and that can be reached after refining the divinity of the concept.
So, they must have been quite shocked that this person could become a transcendent based on the myth <Possibility of Transcendence> and the supernormal ability of necromancy.
‘Funny enough.’
and.
“The God of Arrogance looks at you and remains silent, feeling infinite anxiety, anxiety, and displeasure.”
[ … … There is no possibility of a mere humble being being reborn as a transcendent being of the universe, but it is not a bad idea to punish that humble being so that it can no longer climb. ]
In reality, there was no difference.
“The god of pride is looking at you and expressing his repulsion hostilely, as if he could never acknowledge you.”
[ … … under. A transcendent? That thing? How dare you discuss the transcendent in front of the masters of this universe? It can’t be like that. ]
Before I knew it, the God of Arrogance and the God of Arrogance were showing a different level of nervousness, anxiety, and murderous intent than before.
“The eternal god reveals his infinite murderous intent toward you and refines his status as a divinity.”
[I’m glad everyone agrees. Presumably, the people in the pantheon would all agree with this without disagreement. Accordingly, I will summarily execute Han Seong-yoon, the ancient god of transcendence and death. ]
But─.
“The God of Darkness speaks coldly as he looks at the worthless things in the pantheon.”
[─Who on earth are you willing to summarily execute my favored child? ]
The moment when the God of Darkness, who had been quietly observing the conversation between the God of Arrogance, the God of Arrogance, and the God of Eternity, lightly exhaled his divinity.
───.
In an instant, infinite cold darkness filled every place.
[ ───!? ]
It’s not even just that.
Before I knew it, the God of Arrogance, the God of Arrogance, and the God of Permanence were locked up, almost swallowed up by the silent darkness.
This is because he has never done a single action that could be called resistance, such as bringing out the supernormal abilities of a divinity or the status of a divinity.
Only then did I realize that, except for where I was standing and where the Demon God and the Dragon God were, there was a darkness of indescribable depth everywhere.
“The God of Darkness laughs at things that are no longer worthy of attention.”
[Hehe… … . Right, right. It would be better for you guys to just do it without making any more noise. That’s what suits you best. ]
It was truly an enormous gap.
“… … .”
It felt real.
That God of Darkness in front of me, as well as the Demon God and the Dragon God, are strong people with powers beyond the standard among ancient gods.
Even though the ancient gods of the pantheon were defenseless because they did not know that the God of Darkness would strike them in the back, that performance was still a form of art that was close to art.
[I allowed you to stand here because, just in case, an interesting story could come out of you, but as expected, it was just a story with no value. ]
The God of Darkness tapped the large round table with his thin fingers and spoke indifferently.
[They only talk about boring things like the Tower of Trials or how you too can become non-immortal due to a new transcendent being. ]
Before she knew it, her eyes were shining with disappointment, fatigue, and slight contempt beyond her black robe.
[What’s more, even though you are not the main gods of this pantheon, they arbitrarily tried to obtain our consent. ]
The God of Darkness spoke lightly as if he was no longer interested.
[Please don’t let me be disappointed anymore. ]
and.
“The god of darkness sends a cold warning.”
[─Then, you may have the extremely sad thought that it would be better to let that child swallow up every ounce of divinity you possess. ]
It’s not even just that.
“The demon spirit speaks indifferently, resting his chin as if he no longer likes such things.”
[ ah-. Okay, okay. That wouldn’t be bad either, right? It can be a gift that can be given to Han Seong-yoon in exchange for becoming the new main deity of the pantheon. ]
“The Dragon God urges the Dark God as if he can’t wait any longer.”
[Whoa. Can’t we decide how to deal with those things later? Rather, I want you to hurry up and talk to that successor. Is that why you waited? ]
At this point, the Demon God and the Dragon God also seemed to be unable to bear it any longer and started helping out one by one.
Hearing this, the God of Arrogance, the God of Arrogance, and the God of Permanence stopped struggling and did not even utter a groan.
It is similar to the appearance of a small animal standing in front of a predator, becoming frightened and rigid, unable to move its body any further.
However, just for a moment.
“The God of Darkness smiles at you.”
[ ruler… … . Now, these boring stories are over. Child, I want to hear an answer from you. ]
The God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God were looking this way with eyes filled with interest.
[Please select. ]
The God of Darkness spoke in an excited tone, as if he was very curious.
[ Will he transfer to the pantheon and become a new god who rules over the Earth or other worlds as the main god, and will he now live in peace under our protection? ]
A situation in which those who have achieved the highest rank among ancient deities are all looking at each other with interest, anticipation, and doubt.
[ or… … . ]
The time has come to choose whether to go to the Tower of Trials or the Pantheon.
[Do you still want to become an uncertain transcendent in the Tower of Trials, even though you could lose everything you have built so far? ]
That too for sure.
