424. War of the Gods (1)
It was not a guess, it was a certainty.
‘For the Tower of Trials, sacred <Creation>, divine <laws>, and divine <miracles> are the elements that are the basis of power.’
At first, I thought I couldn’t rule out the possibility that it was a coincidence or an illusion, so I didn’t hastily conclude which was the correct answer, but that’s not the case anymore.
‘The three ancient gods, the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles, must be related to the Tower of Trials in some way.’
The Tower of Trials and the beings called the three ancient gods are likely to be closely related in some way.
‘And then… … .’
Then, with calm eyes, I looked at a building placed in the sacred area <Model Garden>.
‘It would be even more so if you saw what the God of Creation, one of the three ancient gods, had created in the sacred realm.’
A majestic gray pillar that appears to have been created in a clumsy imitation of the Tower of Trials, soaring high into the sky.
“What is the connection between the Tower of Trials and the three ancient gods? … .”
so that-.
“You should answer everything you know about that part without hiding anything.”
[ … … . ]
There was not even room for disagreement.
Of course, the question asked by this side cannot be answered lightly by the other side, so it is possible that the other side may be uncooperative… … .
Well, in any case, if I could find out various secrets about the Tower of Trials from the God of Creation, I could have taken somewhat coercive measures.
‘This is your chance to find out the most important information about the Tower of Trials.’
Wow-.
‘If you can hear the other person’s answer in any way, depending on the situation, you may have to use a forced press button.’
There was nothing that couldn’t be accomplished.
Of course, as one of the three ancient gods, the God of Creation would have great power, but even taking that into account, it is not impossible if the power was accumulated by climbing the Tower of Trials.
If you pour out all the divine supernormal abilities and skills at once, you will be able to suppress it for a moment with overwhelming power.
‘If the odds of winning are not enough, wouldn’t it be too much?’
Currently, most of the abilities we have, such as divinity, authority, or skills, are out of cooldown.
‘If it’s a surprise attack, it’s possible.’
The heart rate rises gradually.
“… … .”
But there was no shaking.
Just be prepared to launch a surprise attack so that you can use all of your power at any time to attack the God of Creation.
Depending on what answer you give, one of the causes of anxiety is that you will have to forcibly obtain the information you want after an immediate surprise attack… … .
In fact, the nervousness was based on anticipation.
‘… … Either way, it doesn’t change the fact that we can learn a lot from this story.’
From now on, I will know in some way how the Tower of Trials and the beings called the three ancient gods are intertwined.
‘… … If you can find out where the Tower of Trials comes from and where it is based, you can achieve more.’
But… … .
“The God of Creation frowns and mutters as if he doesn’t understand.”
[ … … Tower of Trials? ]
Why?
[ … … What on earth is that? ]
The God of Creation responded in a tone of confusion, as if he had no idea.
[ … … First of all, I think I can answer you somehow by knowing what the ‘Tower of Trials’ means. ]
Just like the God of Proof that I encountered upon entering this 36th floor trial stage for the first time, he seemed to have no idea what the Tower of Trials was.
“… … .”
In reality, there was no difference.
“The skill ‘Fire Dragon Eye’ detects that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.”
It was bizarre.
The Tower of Trials and the beings called the three ancient gods are bound to be deeply related to each other.
Moreover, there is even a gray pillar resembling the Tower of Trials in the sacred area <Model Garden>, so it makes no sense to know nothing about it.
However, once the God of Creation confirmed that he was not lying about not knowing about the Tower of Trials, he had no choice but to back down.
‘… … ‘Let’s not fret.’
At that, I narrowed my eyes and regained my composure.
‘You have to be cool.’
To be honest, I wanted to get them to come up with an answer by using all their power right away.
‘There is absolutely no benefit to be gained by hastily fighting with them.’
Because that’s the easiest solution.
But that doesn’t change anything.
In fact, as long as the God of Creation knows nothing about the Tower of Trials, it is impossible to get the answer this side wants.
‘Even if we were to surprise the God of Creation and win here, the chances of obtaining information about the Tower of Trials are slim.’
There wasn’t even any room for doubt.
Currently, the God of Creation has used his skills to confirm that it is true that he does not know anything about the Tower of Trials.
Considering that this skill was greatly strengthened by the transcendental myth <Spirit Attunement>, it couldn’t have been a fake.
Then, what needed to be done was also clear.
‘In the end, the only way to find out what the relationship between the three ancient gods is with the Tower of Trials is to take your own time…? … .’
It was simple.
Find out the causal relationship between the three ancient gods and the Tower of Trials by directly observing them until you clear the trials.
That was the surest way to obtain answers to the many questions accumulated while climbing the Tower of Trials.

Of course, it was a shame.
However, if you rush to get more information about the Tower of Trials from the God of Creation, everything may end in vain.
If you ask the God of Creation for information about the Tower of Trials, you may end up instilling a sense of unnecessary discomfort.
I didn’t want it to be like that.
‘Actually, I would like to at least find out in detail about the gray pillar in the sacred realm… … .’
It was for a similar reason that I could not ask about the identity of the gray pillar that seemed to be modeled after the Tower of Trials placed in the sacred realm <Model Garden>.
‘Then, if they notice that there is some kind of connection between the Tower of Trials and the Gray Pillar, it could lead to an irreversible situation.’
When the relationship between the Tower of Trials and the three ancient deities was mentioned, the God of Creation must also be quite interested in this.
In that case, if you ask about the Gray Pillar right after talking about the Tower of Trials, you will inevitably notice that the Tower of Trials has some relationship with the Gray Pillar.
In that case, it would be better not to reveal what this person wants to know.
‘Right now, the most important thing is to make sure my actions aren’t seen as suspicious.’
There was a need to hide the inner meaning.
“If you don’t know anything about the real Tower of Trials, there’s no need to try to answer like that.”
I pretended like nothing was wrong and opened my mouth and spoke calmly.
“You don’t know anything about the Tower of Trials, so there’s no way you’ll get a clear answer if you ask any more, right?”
Instead, I continued to talk to the God of Creation as if I needed to hear other things.
“However, from now on, unlike the questions about the Tower of Trials, you will have to answer sincerely without leaving out anything you know.”
After hearing those words, the God of Creation remained silent and responded, touching the corners of his mouth as if he was amused.
[ … … okay? Well, okay. If that’s what you want, let’s skip the story about the ‘Tower of Trials’. Let’s start with another story. ]
I guess they were interested because they asked about the relationship between the three ancient gods and the Tower of Trials… … .
“Let’s do that.”
And that is only for a moment.
“This time, let me ask you something simple.”
As soon as I smiled and asked the next question, the other person’s expression almost stiffened.
“War of the Gods. I want to hear about that original purpose. “Everything.”
[ … … what? ]
“Three things: I have agreed to answer honestly whatever questions are asked within the scope of my knowledge, so don’t even think about giving a vague answer.”
[ … … . ]
“So, what is the answer?”
[ … … I’ll answer you. ]
The God of Creation frowned and answered as if he was dissatisfied.
[ … … The original purpose of the war of the gods itself is a story that is not worth asking about, even though there are only three opportunities to ask questions. ]
She took a deep breath and continued speaking.
[The war of the gods only started with me, the God of Law and the God of Miracles, so that I could be reborn as the ruler of the universe. ]
“Ruler of the universe?”
[ okay. That’s it. It’s just that we, the three ancient gods, wanted to be reborn as rulers of this universe. It’s nothing more or less than that. ]
“It’s not a story that I can particularly understand or understand.”
I said as if I was dumbfounded.
“In fact, isn’t an ancient god who is said to be the lord of the universe able to be called the ruler of the universe?”
It was worth it.
At the point when they inscribed the concept of divinity into the universe and even achieved immortality, these ancient deities are worthy of being called the rulers of the universe.
As they say, there is no way they would have done something grandiose like the War of the Gods simply to become the ruler of the universe.
“The fact that you have transformed yourself into divinity itself and gained conceptual immortality means that you have been reborn as one of the lords of the universe.”
[ … … well. That’s just the appearance shown to those who are higher level gods or formal gods. There is no such thing as substance. ]
“?”
[Don’t you know that among the ancient gods who are said to be the rulers of this universe, excluding the gods of darkness, demons, and dragon gods, the rest are close to mere superficial rulers without any real power? ]
“… … .”
However, just for a moment.
[ The end of the universe? It’s just a prestigious position for high-ranking deities or formal deities. In fact, not all ancient gods are in the same position. ]
“… … .”
[Honestly, right? I didn’t like that. That’s why the war of the gods began. Nothing more, nothing less, that’s just the story. ]
“is it.”
As I listened to the God of Creation sighing, I began to guess that this was not the case.
‘Is it real power? … .’
In fact, it was understood that as long as there were overwhelmingly powerful people such as the God of Darkness, the Demon God, or the Dragon God, the three ancient gods could not be said to be the rulers of the universe.
‘You might feel that way.’
Well, even though in this universe the ancient godhead itself is a high level revered as the lord of the universe, there is no superiority or inferiority between them.
‘Whatever it is, it’s not wrong.’
however… … .
‘But somehow, it feels like it’s bothersome.’
However, even so, it was an answer that I couldn’t shake the feeling that the words of the God of Creation were somehow limited to superficial reasons.
‘Is he the ruler of the universe?’
Would you say it feels a bit like you’re wandering around somewhere?
“… … .”
But that was it.
As before, I used the skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ to determine whether the opponent’s words were real or fake, but nothing changed.
Since the God of Creation only spoke the truth without a single lie, he was in a position where he could no longer be questioned.
“The God of Creation is looking at you and smiling.”
[Was it a sufficient answer? ]
When I heard those words, I nodded, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
“… … Well, it’s something I can sympathize with to some extent, so it’s hard to say it’s all a lie.”
However, since I know that they have never told a lie, I have no choice but to answer only the questions I am curious about and then move on.
“Is that only two out of three opportunities left to hear an answer from him?”
Just like that, I asked the remaining questions in a voice filled with regret.
“Let’s finish this soon.”
and.
“You said that when you contributed to victory in the War of the Gods, you would be given something based on your contribution, right?”
[ … … okay. Those who have contributed a lot to victory in the war of the gods can gain something just as valuable. Whatever it is. I can assure you of that. ]
Next moment.
“If you could tell me how rewards are given according to contribution when winning the War of the Gods and the range of selection for the victory reward, I will end the question here.”
[ … … hmm. Even if we don’t know how rewards are given when you win, what exactly does it mean to ask for information on the range of victory rewards you can choose? ]
“For example, even if you ask me to make a relic that I have never seen before, if it contributed greatly to the victory, would I be able to make it?”
[ … … It might be possible. maybe. Even if, like you said, it’s a relic or artifact that I don’t know about, it’s not difficult to make it if that’s what you want. ]
“… … under.”
I was thrilled.
“Yes, that’s right?”
It’s no different─.
“Well, that’s really good news.”
That was because it was a miraculous statement that it was possible to obtain once more the ‘Book of Divinity Cloning (EX)’ that would allow one to acquire any divinity.
