Episode 380. Perfect Victory (2)
While Jinhyeok was attacking the 20th floor, the war with Ragnarok and Olympus was almost coming to an end.
A one-sided victory for the Olympus side.
Although they struggled in Jotunheim, as a result, the direction of the match was already decided.
ââ¦I heard that all areas except Yggdrasil have been captured.â
âOh, did the news reach the players already? Hahaha. This is embarrassing.â
âSince I have some connections, information tends to come in quickly.â
To be precise, I was memorizing all the numbers of cases when playing in the past.
Thereâs no need to tell Loki or Thor about it.
âThen, the conversation will be fast. As you said, our situation is not very good. Fortunately, thanks to the unique geography, we are protecting Yggdrasil, but even that wonât last long.â
If Yggdrasil, the foundation of Ragnarok, is lost, it is the end.
It wouldnât be an exaggeration to say that the world tree symbolizing a myth was Ragnarok itself.
âSo, what do you want from me?â
âIâve heard about the activities of the forces you lead. To be honest, theyâre so strong that itâs hard to believe theyâre human.â
I knew it. Are you asking for help?
But no matter how strong the Old Man Corporation is, you probably know that itâs not strong enough to stand up to Olympusâ main force.
As if guessing Jinhyeokâs thoughts, Loki quickly added a word.
âAh! Of course, Iâm not asking for anything outrageous. In fact, what weâre asking for is asking for one specific item.â
âYou want materials to protect Yggdrasil. Two of the three that are the foundation of the confrontation system can be obtained somehow from the Ragnarok side, so whatâs left is the âspring water of the sunâ.â
ââ¦!?â
Loki suddenly became a mute after eating honey.
It was because he never imagined that the ending of the conversation could be predicted with just that clue.
âHaha! This is a good shot. Yes. You are right. Our only hope is to protect Yggdrasil. But, there are a few things we need to protect the World Tree from Olympusâ vicious attack. .â
In place of Loki, who was standing in a daze, a tall man next to him stepped out.
Thor.
Indeed, just facing them makes me feel out of breath and stuffy.
Even though he hides his mana to the extreme, itâs this much.
I wondered how strong the completely freed body would be.
This is because in the past, Thor, the great hero of Ragnarok, was killed by the Demon World before he could even fight properly.
âThat was a bit disappointing. Unlike Hercules, Thor hasnât even bumped into him a few times.â
This was one of the few things I regretted while climbing the tower.
Thenâ¦
âwhat if it was me now?â
Jinhyukâs fingers twitched.
At this point, less than three years have passed since entering the tower.
Originally, a battle with a godhead was a taboo that had to be avoided at all costs.
But why?
The thought of hopelessness did not lift the nail.
Worth a try.
Even if the opponent was the toughest high-level deity.
âHey, keep the cutting edge in moderation. I know weâre asking for an unreasonable favor, but thereâs no such thing as too hostile, right?â
âIâm not asking for help bare-mouthed. Weâve prepared our own, too. Something youâll like.â
The two gods, who misunderstood Jinhyeokâs murder in a different way, rushed to the main point.
Loki carefully pulled out a white leaf from his bosom.
This�
An earthquake occurred in Jinhyeokâs pupils.
I expected to give an unusual reward, but I never imagined that I would offer this.
âYggdrasilâs⦠leaf.â
âHahaâ¦â
âThereâs really nothing I donât know. Only then will there be no need to explain.â
Loki and Thor now reacted in amazement beyond surprise.
It was because only a few of the deities belonging to Ragnarok had seen the leaves of Yggdrasil.
âSo, what are you going to do? If youâre the one with the crown, you know how valuable Yggdrasilâs leaves are.â
The Crown of Paedo is one of the top-notch artifacts that exist in the tower, but it had the disadvantage of being difficult to handle.
Usually, it was made for use by monsters with levels over 500 or who have the body of an infinite body, so of course the requirements are enormous.
However, as long as you process Yggdrasilâs leaves wellâ¦
âIâll be able to adjust my magic enough to handle it with my current level.â
This condition is quite attractive.
Itâs good enough to say that itâs more than expected.
âHow long can I do it?â
The deal was done.
I also decided where to go next.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
âWhat is this?â
When I returned to the ball, there were quite a few things unfolding.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
A chandelier shaking violently.
The warm and inviting prom no longer exists.
âAre you here now? Please, take care of the aftermath.â
Chun Youseong clicked his tongue and greeted me first.
âWhat are you talking about?â
âI know when I see it. When I see itâ¦â
What the hell are you looking for?
Jinhyeokâs gaze turned to the ballroom.
OK.
âThe foolish saintess looks a bit tired today. Did she grow old in just one day after praying all day long?â
âOh my gosh. Did you know that a kid who has lived for thousands of years can do just fine by wearing flashy clothes? The clothes are loose, so I thought they were momâs clothes.â
âdo you want to die?â
âYou will live a long time.â
The members of the Goinmul Corporation, who are engaged in a tremendous war of nerves, caught my eye.
Alice and Teresa raised their voices.
We didnât just lift each otherâs swords. Iâm inclined to stab with words.
âWhen did Teresa go black like that againâ¦â
It was when Jinhyeok sighed.
âHehe. Jinhyeok-nim. Please come this way for a moment.â
Andrea, smiling brightly, approached Jinhyeok.
The eyes are smiling, but the atmosphere is strong.
as if to prove it.
Shuk.
Swoopâ¦
A large number of people approached Jinhyeok.
Believers in the 5th floor âpsychiatric wardâ.
To be precise, they were Andreaâs limbs.
âNow, what are you doing⦠Andrea?â
âWell, thereâs an event to dance in front of the emperor at a ball a little later.â
I think I will remember hearing that such an event will be held.
âSo what does that have to do with this?â
âKyaa. Pretending not to knowâ¦!â
Andrea covered her face with both hands as if she was ashamed.
at the same time.
Sreung!
Chunk!
Various weapons protruded from the arms of the followers.
âI definitely want to dance with Jinhyeok-nim no matter what.
creepy
Cold sweat ran down Jinhyukâs back.
This is dangerous.
âYoosungâ¦ah?â
âDidnât I tell you? You should do all the cleaning yourself. I donât know.â
Chun Yoo-seong turned his gaze away with a single knife.
âshit.â
fault.
Jinhyeok left his seat and ran along the side corridor of the terrace.
âYou wonât miss it!â
Andrea and her followers started chasing after her.
How long has it been since you were chased by believers like that?
It was none other than Frey who saved Jinhyeok from being cornered.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
He used a javelin to break down the wall and disrupt the line of sight.
âThank you, Frey. Thanks to you, Iâm saved⦠Huh?â
Frey looked up at Jinhyeok with an expressionless face.
I wondered where I got it, but the blue dress looked particularly good with the blue hair.
the problem is.
âWhat is dancing?â
The point is that Frey, who had no doubt that he would get him out of this hell, was not on the same side.
ââ¦Itâs a kind of social activity, but itâs a useless action that doesnât help at all in battle.â
âIâve never done it, I donât know.â
Frey tilted her head.
but.
âI think you should try it at least once to accumulate data. The probability is 100%.â
ââ¦â
It was caught firmly wrong.
âWere you hiding here? Silly contractor!â
âIf I canât get my hands on it, Iâd rather cut it off.â
Whatâs more, when Elise and Teresa joined the battle afterwards, the situation turned even more hellish.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
About 1 hour later.
The scramble, reminiscent of a war, was over.
To be precise, it became a scramble with only wounds, with no winners or losersâ¦.
Because of Jin-hyeok, who had disappeared into the crowd, Alice, Teresa, Frey, and Andrea blankly watched the dance, the highlight of the ball.
The sight of good men and women dancing in pairs made a part of my heart ache.
ââ¦Whoa.â
Alice sighed deeply.
Exactly, I wanted to be with Jinhyeok in there.
No matter how hard you try, the world doesnât go back as you want.
âIâm going to search some more. What about the foolish saint?â
âWell, Iâm going to stay here a little longer.â
âYou give up quickly. Do whatever you want.â
Theresa, who was left alone, sat down on the steps as Elise left.
Right then.
Chun Yuseong reached out his hand to Teresa without saying a word.
âHuh. Did you come to comfort me?â
âIâve been taught that a woman who is sad is not to be left alone.â
âReally⦠heâs a no-nonsense guy.â
Teresa laughed and rose from her seat.
âStill, I should give this Sundingi a chance to dance like this. Otherwise, Iâll suffer alone for the rest of my life.â
[Teresa cancels âCorruptionâ.]
âMr. Yoosung?â
Theresaâs eyes widened.
âAh that⦠ahâ¦â
âThis way.â
Chun Youseong led Teresa to the middle of the stage.
Soon, the two danced with an elegant tune.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
âDid you barely get away with it?â
Jinhyeok, hiding among the people, let out a long sigh.
I didnât notice it because I was just running away, but all of a sudden, a lot of people around me were dancing to the song.
âIâll just have to hide and get out of the ballroom.â
After all, if you make up your mind and run away, no one will catch the rotten water.
But just then
âChuck! Our student doesnât seem very popular. Seeing him standing alone here alone.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dark Emperorâs voice rang out from behind.
âNo, itâs not how Master is here. Not popular. What does that mean?â
âDonât worry. Doesnât this teacher exist?â
Dark Emperor grabbed Jinhyeokâs wrist with his left arm.
It could be said that it was almost simultaneous. His right hand, like a hook, tightly gripped Jinhyeokâs waist.
âS, Master?â
âTake a good look. This is the âHeukcheon Paewang Danceâ that has been passed down
from generation to generation in our schoolâ¦!â Kwaang!
There was a
huge wave along the ground.
lan power. If I did this dance, there was no girl who didnât pass!â
Itâs not that they didnât, itâs that they all died.
The word to stop came out of Jinhyeokâs throat, but
it was already too late. Dark emperorâs dance had begun.
âUhhhhh!
â Kwakwa!
Jinhyeokâs body rotated so much that he couldnât see it at the rotation like a storm.
Would it be like this if the merry-go-round was turned at 100x speed?
The
marble floor dug out at a terrifying speed
. â
âI canât even pick a bone if I get involved!â
The nobles rushed out of the ballroom.
Seeing the pillars collapsing like toothpicks, itâs really worth ten lives.
The face of the current emperor crying in the distance and foam I could see Pennheimer biting his tongue and Ebraham smiling as if he was having fun.
Even when the rebellion broke out, the imperial palace didnât collapse. Hundreds of years of history are on the verge of disappearing into powder.
âIâm dying. Master. I really die!â
âHold on! This is all training to win womenâs hearts! Heukcheon⦠Overlordâs martial arts! 3 seconds!â
No, Iâm dying!
