God’s Natural Enemy, Returns Episode 085

63. The King’s Qualifications (2)

[Fallen demon ‘Lee Si-Hyeon’ has cleared the hidden quest of Archangel of Humility ‘Michael’, .]

[Obtain a reward containing the power of the Archangel of Humility, Michael.]

… …

[Archangel Michael of Humility refuses the reward.]

[Obtain other rewards.]

[Other rewards will be paid in combination with the rewards of the following gods.]

Shh.

Sihyeon smiled after seeing the message.

“Yes. I thought Michael would refuse the reward.”

Normally, those who gave trials could not refuse rewards.

No, there was no need to refuse.

The beings that appear while progressing through are nothing more than illusions created by the system.

Because the system automatically measured and distributed the rewards.

But Michael is a divine being.

It is also a being with the highest status of ‘absolute god’.

So, even if it is just an illusion imitating him, it is still possible to have a sense of self.

There was no way he could reward Sihyeon, whom he hated so much.

“Well, it’s better if you don’t give it to me.”

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

“There are other rewards.”

But Michael didn’t know.

In this , if you don’t force the reward, the reward will come back bigger.

This was actually a method used by the gods or absolute gods.

In , the reward was not given on purpose, but was called that reward.

[Fallen demon ‘Lee Si-Hyeon’ has cleared the hidden quest of the arrogant demon ‘Lucifer’, .]

[Obtain a reward containing the power of the Arrogant Demon ‘Lucifer’.]

[You obtain the item, ‘Demon King’s Horn (SS)’.]

[Devil King’s Horn (SS)]

#The first drink, the devil’s horn imbued with the power of Lucifer.

Material item.

Effect

[Magi +150]

Simply having horns will earn you recognition as the ‘Demon King’ by demons and the devil race.

The Demon King’s Horn.

It was a SS-grade material item of the same level as the Fire Dragon’s Reverse Scale.

“It’s been a while since I’ve had an item to absorb into Kibisis.”

Because it was the Demon King’s horn that raised magic power by a whopping 150.

Sihyeon fed this to Kibisis without hesitation.

[Item, ‘Kibisis (A)’ blooms.]

[Item, ‘Kibisis (A)’ absorbs ‘Demon King’s Horn (SS)’.]

“Michael, you idiot. You didn’t know this would happen, did you?”

I’m sure Michael is watching the situation right now.

Sihyeon was able to enjoy herself to her heart’s content.

“You’re stupid. How can you be called the Archangel of Eden like that? Well, Eden is in such a state because someone like you is the Archangel.”

[… … That’s serious.]

[Isn’t Eden scary? After all, it’s a big world.]

[See the red lips?]

No matter what the three supreme gods of the Vedas who were watching the vision said or did.

Sihyeon was only provoking Michael.

Have you decided that you can’t listen to it anymore?

An additional message came immediately.

[Fallen demon ‘Lee Si-Hyeon’ has cleared the hidden quest of Odin, the god of victory and wisdom, .]

[Obtain a reward containing the power of Odin, the god of victory and wisdom.]

[Item, ‘Draupnir (D)’ is strengthened.]

“Reinforcement.”

Odin’s reward is to strengthen Draupnir, ignoring all conditions.

It was a fitting effect, as the quest for was to guess the runes in Draupnir.

[Draupnir (D)]

… … .

Skill casting speed increased by ‘100%’.

D-grade special effects

After overcoming the , you will learn one of Odin’s 18 rune magics, ignoring all conditions.

*However, this does not apply to replicas.

Casting speed, which was previously increased by only 50%, has been increased by 100%.

One special effect, , has been added.

Of course, since it doesn’t apply to replicas, Cheon Yuri, Cheon Taesu, and his followers won’t be able to use additional rune magic.

Just being able to use it alone was a huge advantage.

Because rune magic had such powerful effects.

‘Well, the increased casting speed applies to clones too. It’ll be around 20% now.’

That’s because the casting speed increase of the genuine Draupnir has a crazy effect of 100%.

Even if you just increase casting speed by 20%, magic rankers will roll their eyes and ask how many points are needed.

Increasing ‘magic casting speed’ is an all-rounder stat that positively increases attack, defense, and utility.

“Well. Then should we choose the next rune?”

[The knowledge of the item, ‘Draupnir (D)’ begins to shine.]

[Odin’s 12th rune magic, ‘Rune Magic: Rune of Necromancy (??)’ is acquired.]

[Rune Magic: Rune of Spirit (??)]

Consumes magic power towards the corpse.

After that, the soul of that corpse is revived.

*You can ask the spirit a total of 3 questions, and the more magic power you consume, the more spirits of the dead you can summon.

Rune of the Order.

It was a powerful rune magic that could summon the spirits of the dead from the afterlife and ask them questions.

Of course, if the target is reincarnated or has been dead for too long, the magic itself cannot be used.

Even taking that into account, there was no other rune better for extracting information.

‘Because if you come back to life with the Rune of Spirit, you can’t lie. It’s more powerful than the soul magic used by ordinary necromancers or warlocks.’

Smiling like that.

Sihyeon confirmed the next reward.

Because I received the rewards of Michael, Lucifer, and Odin.

Now it was Zeus’ turn.

[Fallen demon ‘Lee Si-Hyeon’ has cleared the hidden quest of the sky god ‘Zeus’, .]

[Obtain a reward containing the power of the god of the sky, Zeus.]

[Item ‘Astrape (B)’ is promoted ignoring the unique quest.]

[Item, ‘Astrape (B)’ is promoted to Grade A.]

Flash!

From the Temple of Astrape, visible from the Throne of Vision, golden lightning began to strike.

“guy.”

After seeing that sight, I snickered.

Sihyeon examined Astraphe.

[Astrape (A)]

… …

A-grade special effects

Astrapha can acquire lightning-related skills while ignoring all conditions.

Transforms all flesh and items into lightning, temporarily increasing all stats by 870%.

*The amount of increase in ability is the same as the player’s current magic.

Duration: 30 seconds.

Reuse waiting time: 24 hours.

“You’re finally out. Brain God.”

Astraphe’s A-class special effects were mainly of two types.

The first special effect is .

Now, Astrape can learn lightning-type skills.

Because it ignores any conditions, it is a type of skill called ‘authority’ that can only be obtained by obtaining the body of a ‘god’.

Or, you could learn all the lightning-related skills that only certain hidden classes, wizards, and spirits can obtain.

This is the true amorphous king.

It was the peak of colorful lightning.

In fact, Zeus also took advantage of this feature of Astrape to collect all kinds of lightning bolts.

‘What. It’s mine now.’

It was an excellent effect for Sihyeon, who chose lightning as her main attribute.

And the second special effect, .

Literally meaning the god of lightning, Shihyeon could change his physical body into lightning whenever he wanted.

Of course, it was something that consumed a tremendous amount of magical power.

It could have such a crazy powerful effect.

In fact, before I returned, I had used this ability to get close to death several times.

The A-class Astraphe and its special effects gave off a sturdy feeling just by their presence.

Pfft pfft pfft!

The Astraea on Shihyeon’s body and the Temple of Lightning in the distance began to reveal a golden light.

Is it because I was promoted to Class A?

Astrape was regaining some of his gold while overcoming the power of the EX-rank skill, ‘Divine Annihilation’.

Meanwhile, around Sihyeon’s body, lightning that was half gold and half black was wrapped around her.

Personally, I like the color of this lightning much better.

“An unexpected design buff.”

Sihyeon grabbed Astraphe.

“Okay. That’s cool.”

-… … !

Astragalus also flashed more brightly as if it was good.

“Then now… … is it our turn, the Supreme Beings?”

[Yes. This is the last one.]

[… … You’re really sweeping up the rewards.]

[Kiya… … How much power does God have? You’ve really decorated the gray area.]

Vishnu, Brahma, Shiva.

This time, not only did he pass the trials of three absolute gods, but he also received the reward that ‘Michael’ had rejected.

It was certain that powerful items or skills would come out.

[I’ll give you a choice.]

“option?”

In Vishnu’s words.

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth while crossing her legs.

[You can choose one of the following three rewards.]

[Trait-related rewards (Brahma)]

[Level Related Rewards (Vishnu)]

[Skill-related rewards (Shiva)]

“Ohh.”

Sihyeon smiled as if it was fun to see the hologram window unfolding before her eyes.

“Isn’t there any explanation?”

[We will explain it to you directly.]

“Then let’s start with the first characteristic-related reward.”

[… … Do you think we are your secretaries?]

Even while grumbling like that.

Brahma began to explain kindly.

[The trait-related reward is mine, Brahma. If you choose this reward, you can enjoy the ‘Benefits of the Past’ once more. And in a more enhanced state.]

“What? Is that it? Does it mean that the trait window changes or that I get new items?”

[I can’t tell you that. Haha. You, fallen demon, aren’t you a ‘self-proclaimed’ prophet? You should know if I tell you this much, right?]

“Hmm… … .”

While Si-Hyeon was lost in thought.

Vishnu continued speaking.

[The level-related rewards are mine, Vishnu’s. If you choose this reward, you will get what you ‘need most right now.’]

“What do you need most right now?”

[That’s all the hints I can give you. I can’t give you any more.]

“Then who is the subject of that judgment?”

[I am Vishnu. This is entirely my judgment.]

After hearing that, Sihyeon became even more troubled.

‘Vishnu’s judgment… … .’

Certainly, Vishnu is one of the top three gods among all gods.

His judgment was trustworthy.

[The skill-related rewards are mine, Shiva. If you choose this reward, you can learn the ‘Future Skill’ in advance. Ignoring all conditions.]

“Future skills… …what exactly are they?”

[Attack skill. It’s precious, so take it.]

Sihyeon shook her head after hearing that.

‘I don’t really need an attack skill. I’m also acquiring other skills to make an attack skill with Astraphe.’

[What is that? That attitude? My reward is not zero?]

“Okay. First of all, you fucking idiot are out.”

[Even if I give it to you, it’ll be a mess.]

After hearing the three of them, Sihyeon fell into thought for a moment.

“… … Okay. Then.”

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

“Should I believe in Vishnu for once?”

[Wise choice, you corrupted demon.]

[You have selected Vishnu’s ‘Level Related Reward’.]

Pfft!

Within, with a brilliant light.

The white light symbolizing Vishnu enveloped the vision like a lotus flower.

[Level up!]

[Level up!]

[Level up!]

[Level up!]

… …

[Acquire the skill, ‘Lotus of Growth (S)’.]
