God’s Natural Enemy, Returns Episode 064

51. The Banquet of the Gods, Valhalla (2)

The devils of hell and the angels of Eden.

Adam, who hates both of them, if not hates them.

After seeing Lee Si-eun, the devil’s contractor, he couldn’t hold it in any longer and swung his fist as if he was going to kill her.

‘It’s an opportunity.’

At that moment, Sihyeon was about to send them both away at once.

“I am the opponent of the small business.”

Ss …

A sword flew from somewhere.

Black pupils and whites of the eyes.

White pupils and black eyes.

They were handsome men, each with inverted odd eyes.

Behind the guy, the Taegeuk symbol was shining like a halo.

The posture while holding the sword was extremely stable.

“I heard the story from somewhere. A corrupted demon.”

“… … Jongcheon?”

“Do you know me?”

“I don’t know.”

“… … .”

Jongcheon.

As a Chinese player, he is also one of the four teammates that were with Sihyeon.

Those who used special swordsmanship, swords, and strength were characterized by having magical powers as majestic as the sea.

“Please help me.”

Jongcheon, holding a sword, rushed at Sihyeon.

but.

“Ugh… … .”

“You’re not good enough for me yet, Inma.”

Jongcheon, who was locking swords with Sihyeon, was being pushed back helplessly.

Jongcheon was what is commonly called a ‘late-game player’.

The more magical power a guy has, the more powerful his swordsmanship becomes.

And the more he builds up his magic power, the faster it grows.

However, he has not accumulated that much magical power yet, and has not yet reached the level of a ‘peak master’.

Sihyeon, who used various powers, had no choice but to be pushed back.

“Get out, you idiot!”

“That can’t be. Contractor of Greed!”

Kwaaaaang!

When the intestines were in such turmoil.

[Event, has been cleared!]

The message resonated.

Tsuzujeok.

And then an unknown force separated the last ten remaining players.

“Is it the end? Tsk.”

“… … .”

“It was a good match. Sohyeop.”

“okay.”

[Event, Final 10!]

[Event rewards will be given!]

With additional message.

Sihyeon’s body was moved somewhere again.

[You have entered the gray zone.]

[The total time you can stay in the gray zone is 1 hour.]

[You can summon any god you want while in the gray zone.]

[If the opposing god agrees, a symbol of that god will appear.]

What was soon revealed was a colosseum with numerous broken weapons.

It was the very place where war had previously been declared against Michael and Ramiel.

“Hera, the goddess of the Olympian family. I want to meet her.”

The subspace shook for a moment at Sihyeon’s words.

And then.

[It’s an honor. The famous corrupted demon called me.]

In the subspace, thousands of poppies made of red magic bloomed.

Someone appeared in the meantime.

A gorgeous dress made of peacock feathers, a bracelet of poppies and a red laurel wreath.

A noble and elegant appearance that makes you want to kneel just by looking at it.

The queen of Olympus and the owner of Kibisis, which was taken away by Shihyeon.

It was Hera.

“Well. Consider it an honor. It’s a chance you worked hard to earn.”

[Wow… … Boy. You’re even more arrogant than you look from afar.]

“He has that much skill.”

Petting a lioness.

Hera approached Sihyeon.

It was a luxurious gait, with elegance evident in every single strand of the fluttering dress.

[You took my pockets out in the open. Are you here to return them?]

“No way.”

Shh.

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

[I don’t know what your intentions are, but.]

Hera gestured to the air.

Tsuzujeok.

[I need to get my stuff first.]

For a moment, Kibisis flinched, but did not move away from Sihyeon.

[That child. Now he has become your property.]

“Just like your husband, Lightning.”

[Yes. My husband’s lightning and the Nyx elder’s veil you are wearing.]

Hera came closer to Sihyeon.

[Let’s hand them over first. They were ours originally.]

“What’s the price?”

[Price? Ha. It’s the price for returning the stolen goods… ]

Hera looked at Sihyeon as if she found it amusing.

Ordinary players.

Even the lower-level gods were busy prostrating themselves on the floor or bowing their heads when they learned of his appearance and identity.

The same goes for the snobbish rankers from the US, China, India and Egypt.

But it’s amazing that players from a small country like Korea are holding their heads up so high.

‘That’s fun.’

Hera smiled brightly.

[The price… … The price. Alright. I will forgive you for stealing the item. I will let you make a contract with the Olympian god of your choice.]

From Hera’s point of view, it was a big concession.

First of all, it is a great act of mercy to forgive the crime of stealing the item.

You can even make a contract with any god of Olympus you want.

No player in the history of Disaster has ever enjoyed such a privilege.

‘You’re coming off strong.’

Sihyeon was momentarily surprised when she heard the proposal.

He knew it too.

How powerful was Hera’s proposal now.

Of course, that didn’t mean Sihyeon would give up the item he had worked so hard to raise.

There was another reason for luring Hera like this and speaking to her.

“I don’t like that. Instead, I have a suggestion.”

[proposal?]

Hera’s eyes widened.

A suggestion?

How could a mere player make an offer to the Queen of Olympus?

I don’t have time to pray anymore.

‘Are you the player who just finished the tenth plague?’

Sihyeon is a human who lived a short life.

Now, at most, 25 years old.

But the leisure and experience I felt from him was like seeing a god.

It’s like the very old ancient gods.

[How reckless.]

Hera said with her arms crossed.

[Okay. What do you propose? Is it to prevent divine intervention during the catastrophe?]

It was a natural guess from Hera’s point of view.

In fact, the gods intervened so much during this great disaster that the vision became dangerous.

“No, that’s not necessary. Instead, increase the compensation.”

[With the intervention of the gods, the rewards would have already increased sufficiently?]

“That’s right. And that’s what I want.”

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

“It’s a greater reward than that.”

[Hahaha. So reckless. So very reckless. But that’s what makes it fun.]

Hera raised the corners of her lips for a moment and asked Sihyeon.

[Okay. What’s the price?]

“king.”

Sihyeon clenched her fist.

“I will make you the true queen, no, empress of Olympus. I will usurp the throne from Zeus.”

[… … .]

Hera froze at Sihyeon’s shocking proposal.

It was something out of character for her.

[This crazy guy.]

Hera laughed in vain.

[What are you saying now?]

“If you feel burdened by ascending to the throne yourself, there is also the option of having your heir Ares ascend to the throne.”

Was this argument convincing?

Only then did Hera nod seriously.

Hera, she is the goddess of the home.

That she rebelled against her husband, Zeus, and usurped the throne.

An act that is completely contrary to one’s duty to protect the ‘home’.

If this happens, the divine powers she possesses will inevitably be weakened.

But putting his son Ares on the throne was a different matter.

There was no problem in ‘succeeding’ the throne through him.

Ares was one of the enemies between Zeus and Hera.

‘That doesn’t mean we can put Hephaestus on the throne.’

Ares was a hundred or a thousand times better than Hephaestus, who was only obsessed with making equipment.

But there was one mistake here.

[Okay. Let’s say I do as you say. But… … .]

Bam.

[You little punk. How can you, who just finished the tenth plague, help me usurp the throne?]

“I will corrupt the players who made a pact with Zeus.”

[… … Will this reduce the influence on players?]

“Yes. Originally, at this point, there was only one way for God to intervene with the players on Earth: through a contract. I will check that.”

[… … .]

“If the Queen or her subordinates came into contact with those two, wouldn’t they be suspected? No one would suspect me.”

In the words of the following vision.

Hera was a little creeped out.

Poseidon was very open about his desire for the throne.

It wasn’t me.

‘Surely… …you know that I’ve been wanting to usurp the throne? But how?’

Sihyeon smiled faintly when she saw Hera’s expression.

‘You look embarrassed after being caught.’

Why did Sihyeon find out about Hera’s rebellion?

It was simple.

Because before her return, she actually rebelled.

That too, along with a few like-minded Olympians.

In the process, Shihyeon fought like crazy with Hera and the gods under her command.

I knew it well.

‘The person who has actually experienced it knows best.’

“We are gathering those who will join the rebellion.”

[… … Okay. Is this how you corrupt Zeus’ contractors with that power?]

“Or just kill me.”

[Hmm… … .]

“Let’s do our best.”

Hera, who saw Sihyeon reaching out her hand, smiled without realizing it.

I can confidently say that this little human now had a more dignified demeanor than any human or god I had ever seen.

Even Paris, who had chosen another goddess in front of him, had not displayed such a confident attitude.

[What kind of confidence is this… … .]

Hera took Sihyeon’s hand.

[I like it.]

“The deal is done.”

Feeling Hera’s magic flowing through my hands.

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

Olympus, and Zeus.

The foundation for a rebellion against him has been laid.

“Oh, right. And. Can you take a look at this guy’s hands?”

[Okay. I’ll help you out.]

Hera slapped Kibisis.

[Item, ‘Kibisis (B)’ has been granted magical power as its source.]

[Item, ‘Kibisis (B)’ proficiency increases significantly.]

[Item, ‘Kibisis (B)’ proficiency has reached LV.10.]

[In order for the item ‘Kibisis (B)’ to be promoted to Grade A, you must clear a unique quest.]

The proficiency of God’s unique items does not increase like crazy starting from B rank.

Even though it’s been quite some time since his promotion, Kibisis’ proficiency level is still only 2.

However, thanks to Hera’s power, he was able to greatly increase his proficiency.

‘Of course, to get promoted from A rank, you have to complete a unique quest… … .’

Just think about how powerful a divine item that has been upgraded to Grade A is.

It wasn’t that unfair.

Rather, I felt like it was natural that I had to complete this kind of quest.

[Please take care of me, young player.]

“I am the queen.”

Saaaaah.

And so the red flowers bloom again.

Hera’s appearance disappeared.

[Exit the gray zone.]

[Move to the Valhalla Banquet Hall.]

Paat.

With a white halo, Sihyeon’s body returned to the banquet hall.

“So-hyeop, if you get the chance, let’s fight again… … .”

“later.”

After removing the non-glare sap, he put a piece of meat in his mouth.

Sihyeon quickly left the banquet hall and headed to the basement.

The banquet of the gods lasts for 12 hours.

With six hours remaining, Sihyeon had to search the Valhalla underground to find one item and escape.

‘good.’

The Valhalla Banquet Hall itself was so large that it was larger than the Korean Peninsula.

Since he had been here before, Sihyeon was able to find his way around more or less.

‘Okay, if we keep going like this… … .’

[There it is.]

In front of Sihyeon who changed direction like that.

An angel walked out.

A young appearance, short stature, white sparks, and gold and purple odd eyes.

The guy was ‘Ramiel’, the archangel of Eden who had made a contract with Seo Young-woo.

[A swollen liver bastard.]

“Can an angel swear like that? How vulgar.”

[I’m going to open the Agaltong…]

[stop.]

A tall, blond, handsome man walked out from next to Ramiel.

The handsome man’s white eyes sparkled like little suns.

There was an enormous hatred towards Sihyeon inside.

[There’s no need to talk to that kind of idiot.]

Michael, the chief of the archangels.

The guy swung his sword at Sihyeon without asking or questioning.

[Just kill, kill… … kill until they disappear.]

Whoosh, whoosh.

[Corruption purifies no matter what.]

Kwaaaaaaaang!

Michael’s white flames covered Valhalla.
