Leveling with the Gods

Chapter 356

Chapter 356

C356

It was during a Labor with Hercules that it happened.

The first person YuWon contacted was the Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult.

Chun Mujin.

-You surprised me. You finally reached out.

His words had multiple meanings.

A reprimand for not having communicated until now. And sometimes, a reminder to stay in touch.

YuWon began by apologizing.

Even though he was only obliged by his title, he was still his disciple.

-No need to apologize. Didn't I tell you that you don't have to bear such overwhelming responsibility?

Although his words sounded like that, YuWon could sense through his voice and intonation that he expected more frequent communication. Along with the feeling that YuWon himself had been negligent, he momentarily bowed his head to the shameless demands that would begin from now on.

-I have a request.

"A request?"

A brief silence.

But then, Chun Mujin understood YuWon's intentions and asked.

-Is it a fight?

Although he remembered that he hadn't left the Heavenly Mountain for a long time, it seemed he hadn't lost his cunning.

YuWon perceived Chun Mujin's excitement through his Player Kit.

"Yes, and it's a very big one."

-When it comes to this kind of communication, it's always welcome.

The Heavenly Demon Cult was known for craving a fight.

Alongside the Demon Kings, they were the most warlike. Just with the High-Ranker of the Heavenly Demon Cult, Pung Baek Rim, the Fist King, whom YuWon had recently faced, was enough proof of that.

But this time was different.

"It's not just an ordinary fight."

Perhaps the size of the fight didn't matter as much.

What mattered was that the opponents were beings from another dimension that YuWon had never faced before.

YuWon gave a brief explanation about the Outer Gods.

What kind of powers they possessed and what kind of beings they were. How dangerous this fight would be.

Now it was Chun Mujin's turn to make a decision.

-Heheh, hahaha!

For a moment, a wild laughter was heard through the Player Kit.

This was the first time Chun Mujin reacted so cheerfully. Perhaps because he didn't know much about the Outer Gods, he seemed genuinely excited.

-If that's the case, it's even more welcome!

And then...

The next place YuWon reached out to was Diablo.

-It might be harder than you think...

-Welcome. It's a big welcome! Did you hear that, guys?

-This guy also brings quite a decent number of fighters with him.

-Even without that, we've been bored since the Great Heaven Demon War ended.

-Those who don't know us, the Demon Kings, will regret messing with us...

Boisterous voices were heard.

It was evident that they liked the idea of a big fight.

YuWon was sure that even if the Heavenly Demon Cult might be a bit hesitant, at least the Demon Kings would have a reaction like this.

"The problem is whether we'll get to that point..."

The key was how long they could hold off Foolish Chaos.

And how far he would be willing to fight.

It probably wouldn't be easy.

The probability of Foolish Chaos attempting to fight after Zeus moved was probably less than 20 percent.

Of course...

"It would be a great success if we surpass that probability."

---------------------------------

Crack!

The Demons pounced on the Outer Gods, clawing with their claws and wielding their weapons.

Tentacles were torn and ripped apart. The Demons, that is, the naturally-born Demons, had a strength several times greater than that of Humans from birth.

And they seemed undeterred by these Demons.

-Hyaap-!

One of the Disciples of the Heavenly Demon Cult.

The Heavenly Fist King, Pung Baekrim, extended his fist and released a blue bolt of lightning.

Crackle!

The Heavenly Fist King was a master expert in martial arts in the Murim World.

No, if only the Murim World was considered, perhaps he could even be called number one.

Despite that, the Lightning that came out of his fist was inferior compared to Zeus's.

Of course.

It didn't look that way to YuWon's eyes after a long time.

"You've grown a lot."

The first time he met Pung Baekrim was when YuWon reached the 10th floor.

It was during the Second Trial of the Heavenly Demon Cult. Resisting Pung Baekrim's three blows, the Heavenly Fist King.

At that time, YuWon fought against Pung Baekrim and tens of other blows, and that alone made Pung Baekrim, an accomplished High-Ranker, frustrated by being in a tie with YuWon.

Perhaps due to the impact of that.

He had heard that Pung Baekrim had immersed himself in training after that day.

Although not much time had passed since then, YuWon wondered how much he had grown.

And that wasn't all.

The other two, the Heavenly Spear King and the Heavenly Dao King, had also risen considerably in rank.

After the Heavenly Demon Cult descended from the Heavenly Mountain and merged with the Murim World, the overall rank of the Disciples of the Heavenly Demon Cult increased.

Thanks to that, overall, the ranks of the Disciples of the Heavenly Demon Cult had increased.

"Now, when did you make contact with them?"

Zeus couldn't help but wonder about this situation.

Heavenly Demon Cult and the Demon Kings.

They were not easy forces to gather.

"It was a while ago. I had already contacted them when I gave you the location."

"And when was that?"

"That guy tried to fight in the middle of the city, so I made some threats by bringing out the Administrator. The contact was made while we were on the move."

"And they came all the way here just by contacting you?"

"Yes."

It was such an easy answer that, for a moment, Zeus wondered if YuWon was holding back because he didn't want to answer.

A suspicious look.

However, YuWon's answer was true.

[Vice Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult]

[Twelfth Demon King]

Those were the two titles YuWon possessed.

Each one represented being second in command of two different Guilds.

YuWon had power. He had enough power to move the Heavenly Demon Cult and control the Demon Kings.

And he had a valid reason.

He had had "enemies" he fought as second in command of the Guild for a long time. He knew he needed the Guild's power to defeat those enemies.

Having both a reason and power, it wasn't difficult for YuWon to move a group like a Guild.

"...Seems like you've been busy doing a lot of things."

YuWon shrugged and replied.

"I've been running around a lot and sweating."

Now, the battle had entered its second half.

------------------------

Swoosh-.

Within the cloak, Foolish Chaos's vision was filled with a dizzying number of Players.

Demons.

And Humans.

They were all individuals who had the title 'Player'.

They were people who had gathered under the name of Guilds.

They appeared in front of them and started fighting, pointing their spears and swords at the Outer Gods.

'This situation... It's too soon.'

The Points were rapidly depleting even at this moment.

The more he summoned the Outer Gods.

The more power from his body he used.

The Points continuously disappeared like water spilling from a broken jar.

[You have used 1 point]

[You have used 7 points]

[You have used 4 points]

[You have used 3 points]

The messages had been swirling in his head for a long time.

Each of them was a small number, but the problem was that these Points were being used constantly and quickly.

No...

The bigger problem was that he didn't know how much longer he would have to keep using them.

"I've already used too many Points."

Points.

The power he would need to use one day to open a "Gate/Portal".

Therefore, Foolish Chaos couldn't use it carelessly. Even if he used it, he had to get the maximum efficiency with the minimum amount of Points.

So, this time was a risk for Foolish Chaos.

He had already used a considerable amount of Points to kill Hades. That led to the fall of Olympus and the hope that the failed Gigantomachy would rise again.

But...

Despite that...

All of that fell apart, and even that wasn't enough, so he ended up spending many more Points here.

The pupils within the cloak glimmered with malice. In his heart, he wanted to see all of this come to an end.

Even if he wasted the Points he had been accumulating until now.

However...

"There's a significant difference between the Heavenly Demon Cult, the Demon Kings, and Zeus than I initially thought. They're stronger."

Even Foolish Chaos avoided fighting YuWon because he didn't want to waste Points.

Though he was forced to fight tenaciously, he decided to take this opportunity to get rid of that annoying individual.

"Kim YuWon, is this what you were looking for?"

Swoosh-.

In his heart, he wanted to spill all the Points he had accumulated until now.

But in reality, he couldn't relax, and he didn't have enough energy to do so.

The more he did it, the more Points would be consumed. He had already used too many Points.

"If there's a next one, and another after that..."

He didn't have to think too much about it.

No, he couldn't think too much about it.

The cries of the Outer Gods clashing with the Demon Kings and Zeus.

As time passed, more Points would be consumed.

Foolish Chaos released the fist he was clenching.

"This is as far as I go."

He had no choice but to admit it.

This battle was his defeat.

---------------------

Bam!

YuWon looked at Diablo, who was swinging his fist at the foreigners in the distance.

As if not wanting to be left behind, Chun Mujin's Heavenly Demon Spirit moved.

Booooom!

Kwaaang!

When the Heavenly Demon Spirit, the size of a mountain, swung its sword, the tentacles that enveloped the sky were torn apart and fell to the ground.

Although the Heavenly Demon Cult was relatively weak in comparison, its presence was not inferior to that of the Demon Kings.

"Your name is Chun Mujin?"

Even in a short period, Chun Mujin had caught the attention of the discerning Zeus.

"Your skills are quite good."

Quite good.

That was already high praise Zeus could offer.

It also meant that Chun Mujin's ability, which had not been seen much before, had improved.

"Thank you."

Kwaaat!

Chun Mujin, who had swung his sword, responded to Zeus's murmur.

"If possible, could you give me a lesson later?" (Note: A sparring match against Zeus)

In this dizzying battlefield, no matter how skilled a High-Ranker was, hearing his own voice meant that he had been aware of it beforehand.

Zeus lifted the corners of his lips as if finding it interesting.

Chun Mujin.

Undoubtedly, he was someone Zeus had been interested in for a long time.

He already knew that even Athena, considered the best warrior of Olympus, couldn't surpass him.

"You'll have to prepare."

"I'm always prepared, even for death."

Prepared to die.

Zeus contemplated visiting the Heavenly Mountain once all of this was over.

After overcoming the numerical disadvantage and when the battlefield relaxed a bit. Zeus noticed YuWon, who was standing amidst it all, looking around.

"What are you doing standing there?"

"...I'm thinking."

"What?"

"Thinking about where that guy would escape to at this point."

When Zeus was about to ask who, he also looked around like YuWon.

Then, he realized that he couldn't see the guy.

Foolish Chaos.

The instigator of this battlefield had suddenly disappeared.

No matter how much he searched, he couldn't see him. After joining forces with the Demon Kings and the Heavenly Demon Cult, it seemed he had taken advantage of the chaos of the battlefield to escape.

Zeus frowned and muttered.

"Did we lose him? I should have thrown a Lightning Bolt in that guy's face."

"We didn't lose him."

Creak.

It was at that moment when YuWon, who had been staring fixedly at a spot, started moving.

Silent steps.

"Where are you going?"

In response to Zeus's question, YuWon opened his mouth.

"To throw it in his face."

At the same time...

Zap!

A Lightning Bolt formed in his hand.
