God’s Natural Enemy Returns Episode 148

98. Banquet of the Gods, Elysium (3)

[So? What do you want to know about me?]

In Loki’s words.

For a moment, Sihyeon froze.

‘… … What am I curious about?’

In fact, up until now, Sihyeon has only set goals and run towards them.

The reason I decided to meet Loki was because he simply regressed the vision.

I didn’t really have any wishes or desires for him.

‘Well. I don’t need to meet other gods. Right now, that is.’

After quickly organizing my thoughts.

Sihyeon asked what she was most curious about.

“Why me?”

[what?]

“Don’t be a jerk. If it was enough to revert me, then other players could have easily done it too.”

[Right. But it’s weird that you ask why?]

“what does it mean?”

[Lee Si-Hyeon. Don’t you remember what you were called before you returned?]

With a dizzying body and flowing, voluminous pink hair.

Loki smiled captivatingly.

“… …God’s natural enemy.”

[Yes! The enemy of God. That was you. But who should I revert to?]

“What does that mean?”

[Yes! I regressed you because you were the strongest. And look at what you have accomplished.]

Loki approached, chuckling.

[I’ve already taken the items of the Supreme God, the Lord God, and the Ancient God, and even locked up that idiot over there. I’ve almost never missed an MVP.]

Swish.

[That’s it? Eden, Olympus, and Asgard have already had small but definite cracks. Especially Eden… … No. What’s the point of saying something like this?]

“I really hate the word ‘no.’ If you have something to say, say it quickly.”

[Kukuk. None.]

Loki stroked Sihyeon’s arm seductively.

[You hate my looks too?]

It seems that his history of ‘playfully’ tempting countless gods and players was not in vain.

Loki’s appearance was certainly beautiful.

No, it was not just beautiful, it was fascinating.

But it didn’t work on Sihyeon at all.

He even risked his life fighting against many goddesses of beauty, including Freya and Aphrodite.

Phage crackle!

[Eugyagyaeg!]

With golden sparks rising from Sihyeon’s body.

Loki fell far away, his body shocked.

[That’s too much! To a beauty.]

“Have you regressed as well?”

[No. I didn’t regress. I just know that ‘I regressed you.’]

“What is that… … .”

Sihyeon trailed off.

‘I guess I understand Loki’s purpose.’

I could literally ‘roughly’ figure it out.

Loki had one goal.

The division of the gods.

For this purpose, we used an extreme method called regression.

Only Sihyeon, who was called ‘God’s natural enemy’, was brought back.

He also took all his memories with him.

‘Did you regress me because you thought the bond between gods was strong? But… … .’

There was one part I couldn’t understand.

Wouldn’t things have been easier if you had reverted to a god other than yourself?

If that doesn’t work, then it would have been better if he had regressed himself.

I couldn’t figure out why I was reverting back to being human.

It seems as if he has figured out the question of such a vision.

Loki continued speaking.

[Your very existence makes the gods wary. If I were to return and stir things up among the gods, they would think, ‘Oh, the god of pranks is playing pranks again.’ But.]

Loki raised the corners of his mouth.

[You are different. You can directly steal items from the gods, and you can even use the system to put your sword to the gods’ necks. Michael, seeing how many cracks have appeared on that handsome face already makes me feel like all the 1,000 years of congestion have disappeared. Heheheehe.]

“What is your purpose in dividing the gods?”

[Haha. It wouldn’t be fun if I told you that, right?]

But that brief moment.

Sihyeon could see.

The deep, endless anger and hatred that flashed through Loki’s eyes.

‘Did I see things wrong?’

It was so instantaneous that Sihyeon decided that she had seen it wrong.

[Anyway. Please continue to do well in the future. I don’t know what your plans are, but isn’t causing division among the gods something you’re aiming for as well?]

Sihyeon nodded at Loki’s words.

Because of my experience before the regression.

Sihyeon knew that he could not kill all the gods with his own power.

Olympus, Asgard, Eden, Hell.

We need to properly sow discord and divide these four forces.

Sihyeon will be able to achieve what he ultimately wants to achieve.

[Kikki. And how long are they going to lock that guy up like that?]

“What? Who… … Ah, T.R.P?”

[Yes. I am on your side, but I am also the main god of Asgard.]

“Hmm… … .”

In fact, I used to hold on to TRP because I was annoyed with it.

There was no place to use him right now.

‘The fallen glory is holding you so tightly that you won’t even know what’s going on right now… … .’

[How about giving it to me? Things are tough without that fast guy.]

“What about the reward?”

[Hey, I made you regress.]

“That’s that. This is this. Isn’t it good for you if I regress?”

[That’s true, but… … .]

Loki began to take off his clothes as if he was in trouble.

[Ugh… … Can’t I help it?]

“Don’t do anything stupid.”

[Huh. Not funny. Even gods would fall for someone with this level of looks and body.]

“So what’s the reward?”

[I have nothing to give you… … . You’re doing so well right now. Hmm. Let me see. Oh, there’s this.]

What Loki pulled out was a ring that was broken exactly in half.

[How about this?]

“……This?”

[Item, ‘Lie of the Beginning (E)’ has been acquired.]

[The Lie of the Beginning (E)]

#It’s a lie.

??Item

Effect

When certain conditions are met, hidden effects such as EX-grade skills, traits, items, and titles are activated.

*However, it disappears after one use.

“What is this?”

It’s an E-grade item that allows you to use the hidden effects of an EX-grade item.

‘Items that activate the hidden effects of other items are rare.’

Sihyeon swallowed dry saliva.

‘Even before the regression, all I’ve seen is an A-grade item revealing its hidden effects, and now an EX-grade item… … .’

Looking at the item Loki handed over.

Sihyeon’s pupils shook.

[What do you think? Do you like it this much?]

Of course, I had no idea what effect this would have.

But TRP was of no use to Sihyeon at the moment.

He couldn’t imagine that Loki, who wished to become strong and cause division among the gods, would take care of something that would harm him.

“… … Okay. Take it.”

Sihyeon nodded.

Urrrrrrr.

The tentacles in the realm of fallen glory disappeared, and T.R.P. became a free being.

[Tsk tsk tsk. Even though he is a regressor, he still gets beaten by a human.]

Loki, the woman who was holding T.R.P. like a princess, clicked her tongue.

[Then I’ll go.]

“okay.”

Loki finished his business like that.

After blowing an air kiss towards Sihyeon, he disappeared.

[Exit the gray zone.]

[Move to Elysium Plains.]

Finally, we returned to the Elysium Plains.

There were other players gathered here in groups of three or four.

“Oh, here it comes.”

“Lee Si-Hyeon, the King of Corruption.”

“Are you the king of Korea then?”

“I didn’t know, but you’re the only player with royal status?”

“what is that?”

Contrary to the interests of many people.

Sihyeon didn’t pay much attention to them.

‘I don’t have much to do with these guys anyway.’

Of course, it would be nice to become friends with these guys.

Coming this far means there’s a good chance you’ll survive.

If so, we will be able to maintain cooperative relations even in the event of a disaster in the future.

‘No. Actually, if you think about the next catastrophe, it might be better to become friends right away.’

The fifth catastrophe, ‘Iron Maze’.

Because people from all over the world temporarily gathered ‘there’.

But there was something more important at the moment than creating a flimsy partnership.

“Hera.”

At Sihyeon’s call.

Magical energy surged around them, creating a barrier that blocked all sounds.

And just looking at it from the middle of the curtain, you’re surrounded by gorgeous poppies.

The goddess in spirit form glared at Shihyeon with her arms crossed.

[Yeah. You shamelessly came only now?]

“Well, strictly speaking, I didn’t break my promise.”

[what?]

“The original condition was that if I eliminated or corrupted the ‘forces of Zeus’, I would strengthen the rewards in return. Besides, there aren’t many forces of Zeus in Korea. In East Asia, excluding China, Hera and your faction are struggling.”

Because there was nothing wrong with what Sihyeon said.

Hera chuckled.

[Well. If it’s as you said, things will be fine from the next catastrophe.]

“Then. Then. By the way, why can’t I see the Archangels of Eden?”

[It’s for the sake of appearance. Because of the recent incident in Russia and the incident you created, Eden’s status is not very good.]

Hera playfully whispered in Sihyeon’s ear.

[It looks like Hell is pushing them a bit. There seems to be some internal strife as well.]

Sihyeon nodded.

“Go find Sariel.”

[Sariel? Archangel of Death?]

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

“Yeah. Since the Archangels of Eden aren’t here, I won’t be able to meet them in person… … but I think the two of you will have a lot in common?”

[good.]

Hera heard those words, laughed heartily, and disappeared with the poppies.

[Then I’ll be looking forward to it.]

“Yes. Until the day Zeus is brought down.”

And so another seed of division is planted, a few hours later.

[The banquet of the gods ends.]

[Return to Seoul.]

Sihyeon’s body was moved back to Hanam, Sonae Island.

Phaaaat!

“Wow… … Just five more minutes.”

That’s when Sihyeon came back.

The glass window above the bed shook because of the white halo.

The current time is 5 am.

‘It’s too early to be up.’

Still, judging by the way he was tossing and turning in bed, it seemed like his body had recovered to some extent.

“Yes…….”

As I stared at the glass window for several minutes, I thought about the next disaster.

“Mr. Sihyeon?”

“Are you awake?”

Cheon Yuri got up and laughed bashfully.

“I saw Si-Hyeon’s face as soon as I woke up… Is this heaven?”

“Why are you suddenly saying such strange things?”

“I’m definitely dead. I hope Si-hyeon isn’t here yet… … .”

Cheon Yuri, who had been mumbling some more nonsense, realized that this situation was ‘reality’ as she looked at Sihyeon, who was still laughing.

“Huh? Uh-huh-huh… … .”

“Are you coming to your senses now?”

Cheon Yuri’s face turned red as she remembered what she had just said.

‘Seeing Si-hyeon’s face is heaven… … Isn’t that almost a confession?’

Cheon Yuri’s face turned even redder as she glanced at Sihyeon’s face.

Sihyeon already likes to make fun of herself.

How can I use this as an excuse to tease you again?

I was worried about what to say.

Of course, his worries about being teased were trivial compared to his feelings for Si-hyeon being revealed.

“That, that, that… … that… … .”

“Kukuk.”

Sihyeon, who surprisingly didn’t say much, just pointed to the hologram window with his finger.

“Let’s look at this first.”

“… … Yes? Yes, yes.”

Cheon Yuri, who decided that things had gone well, fanned herself with her hand.

I turned my gaze to the message window announcing the end of the catastrophe.

‘You didn’t hear? No. You couldn’t not hear it from this distance. Oh, I don’t know!’

Cheon Yuri tried hard to ignore the current situation and focus on the message.

But I couldn’t help but keep looking at Sihyeon’s face.

[MVP: Fallen King Lee Si-Hyeon.]

[Receive 200,000 points as an MVP reward.]

… …

[Personal rewards are given.]

[The fallen king, Lee Si-Hyeon, has killed a total of … … red elves.]

… …

[The fallen king, Lee Si-Hyeon, has killed a total of … … high elves.]

[Fallen King Lee Si-Hyeon has defeated the Hive Queen ‘Wasp’.]

[The fallen king, Lee Si-Hyeon, has defeated the 4th elf elder, ‘Mindrule.’]

[Fallen King Lee Si-Hyeon has defeated the 3rd Elf Elder, ‘Nature Bomb.’]

[Contribution increases due to the intervention of the ‘gods’.]

[Event, rewards will be added as rewards for .]

[Additional rewards are given!]

‘Even if you look at it as a simple achievement, it was a great performance that was on a different level from the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd disasters.’

Seo Young-woo, Dakkon, and Oakjan captured countless high elves.

And the final boss of the third disaster, ‘Wasp’, that Park Na-eun defeated together with Alpha Soldiers.

Because what the servants caught was treated as what Si-Hyeon caught.

All of this adds up to contribution.

There are high elves and two elders that Sihyeon caught himself.

‘Well, what about the system?’

The corners of Sihyeon’s mouth went up on their own.

‘What kind of reward should I give?’

[You have acquired the title, .]

[Buff, ‘Archangel’s Grace (S)’ lasts until the end of the fifth catastrophe.]

[You obtain the item, ‘Fertilizer of Abundance (A)’.]

[You will obtain the item, ‘Skill Book: Rune Reinforcement (S)’.]

[You will obtain the item, ‘S-Grade Item Exchange Ticket (S)’.]

[Level up!]

[Level up!]
