Episode 101

I visited Athena before the battle with Ares.

Wearing armor and holding a shield, she looked ready to go into battle at any moment.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes, everything is ready. “By the way, Athena, what are you doing?”

“I also intend to participate in the battle.”

“Are you going to be okay?”

“Of course. “If I don’t help you, you won’t be able to win.”

At her words, I looked at our power.

100 elf and dark elf soldiers sent from Elfheim.

Fenrir and Jormungandr.

Although Fenrir suffered serious injuries, he recovered to some extent and possessed power comparable to that of a mid-level god.

Jormungand also had power comparable to that of a superior god.

But you won’t be able to win.

It is said that Ares has the power of a high-ranking god because he exerts incredible strength in battle, but I did not think that he would lose in this situation where Fenrir and Jormungand were alive and well.

“Ares is a mid-level god. “No matter how much of a god buff you receive, you won’t be able to win easily.”

“You ignore my younger brother so much. Although he may seem a little lacking, he is a god of war in name and appearance. And next to Ares is Phobos.”

Phobos, the god of defeat.

The son of Ares and Aphrodite, and the god who delivers unconditional defeat to enemies he encounters on the battlefield.

Unlike other gods, he was also famous for staying together under Ares without forming a guild.

“The mere presence of Phobos on the battlefield greatly increases Ares’ chances of victory.”

“Is that enough to beat those two?”

When asked, pointing to Jormungand and Fenrir, Athena nodded.

“It’s probably a whistle at best. If Aphrodite were to participate there, they would struggle and be defeated. “That’s what the God of War is.”

“… … .”

In addition, there were apostles and numerous guild members next to them.

If Athena were to judge her that way, I thought that the strength I had prepared might be a little lacking.

‘The power Ares exerts on the battlefield is too irregular.’

Therefore, it was difficult to predict unless they encountered each other directly.

“If I had Nike by my side, I would have let her go, but now that I don’t have Nike, I have no choice but to take action myself.”

“Isn’t it taboo for gods to kill each other?”

“It’s a taboo set by my father. “But wouldn’t it be okay as long as I don’t kill him directly?”

Don’t kill it directly.

‘Ah, I understand.’

I realized why she was participating in the war.

Athena planned to show her will by participating in the battle.

He says he is protecting Dojin, who possesses divine blacksmithing skills.

But that won’t be the only goal.

There was no way he would do something reckless to immediately start a confrontation with other gods, especially Zeus, in order to protect the blacksmith.

This.

“Is this to call upon Nike, the god of victory?”

“… “You’re quick-witted.”

It was to inform people that Athena had entered the battlefield.

By participating, she is not only protecting herself, but also calling out to those who will become her allies in the future.

Are you trying to divide allies from enemies?

I thought they would take action, but I didn’t know that Athena herself would take action.

As for me, Athena’s presence would be a great help to us, so I didn’t bother to stop her.

“All right.”

Finally, I checked my weapons and waited for Ares to arrive.

And not long after, a group came from afar.

Ares and Aphrodite.

Next to them were crowded with guild apostles and guild members.

The guild members of the two intermediate gods combined and more than a thousand people joined the promised battlefield.

Ares, who spotted me from afar, jumped forward in one step and flew in front of me.

thud!

Ares looked me up and down, clicked his tongue, and continued.

“… “I never thought the person who killed my brother was really human.”

His eyes landed on the hammer of Hephaestus hanging on my waist.

“Are you not even thinking about hiding it anymore?”

“There’s no reason to come all the way here and hide it.”

“… “That means the blacksmith’s anger was also your fault.”

Blacksmith’s Wrath.

The reason why Hephaestus’ guild and Ares’ guild clashed and fought.

“that’s right.”

“… “One more reason for me to kill you.”

Quick!

The sound of Ares grinding his teeth was clearly audible.

“If you ask for forgiveness even now and are obediently arrested, we can treat you as leniently as possible.”

“Why should I do that?”

“what?”

“Hephaestus died for the sins he committed.”

“What kind of bullshit are you talking about?”

“You probably don’t know how many dwarves he killed to solidify his absolute position as a craftsman.”

The most representative character is Brock.

The brother of my teacher, Eitri, and a craftsman who created numerous relics in mythology.

In addition, the number of dwarf artisans Hephaestus killed was large.

Not only the dwarves, but also all the artisans who could tarnish his status were killed or attempted to be assassinated.

The reason Eitri survived was because she broke her hammer after Brock died.

“That doesn’t justify what you did.”

“I don’t even think it’s fair. I will pay for what I did later. “If it’s really a sin.”

But more than that, the more fundamental reason why I killed God.

A lot of things they will do in the future.

We couldn’t keep them alive forever, using humanity as a tool.

That was the same for Ares in front of me and Athena who was helping me.

“I am the one making the suggestion. Give up and get out of here. Then it will end with you dying. But if you don’t back down, you will remain as a remnant of the mythical past along with Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.”

“This bastard.”

Ares’ face grew sinewy.

“Are you insulting God now?”

“Even God has to pay the price.”

“It is we who protect this world for you. “How dare you do that to us!”

It’s just an empty echo that doesn’t reach me, who knows that all these disasters are because of them.

“Enough of the noise, didn’t you come to catch me anyway?”

Sreung.

I chose Gleipnir.

I stood facing him with the evil sword Gleipnir in my left hand and the Dragon Slayer made from the body of Hephaestus in my right hand.

“You’re so cocky.”

The guy twisted his lips.

“Athena, are you really planning to be with a person with such arrogant thoughts?”

“Isn’t that true? “There are actually many sins that Hephaestus has committed.”

“You talk as if you are innocent.”

“well?”

Ares gritted his teeth and said.

“Then Athena, I think you too are going against Zeus’ will.”

“Isn’t that too much of an overinterpretation?”

Ares didn’t even respond to Athena’s words and pulled out his sword.

“Punish Kim Do-jin, the god-killer, and Athena, who betrayed humanity, and gain the glory of victory!”

Ares raised his hand, and at that moment, the shouts rose endlessly.

“Waaah!”

Ares and Aphrodite’s guild members came rushing in at once.

“Athena, let’s stop them together with the elves.”

“Can we really just stop them?”

Athena’s eyes briefly turned to Ares.

“yes. “It just takes the three of us to deal with Ares.”

It was with Jormungand and Fenrir.

I didn’t think I would lose.

“… I get it.”

Athena led Suyeon Lee and the elves and went to stop the apostles of Ares and Aphrodite who were more than 10 times larger.

The average number of guild members for a mid-level god is in the three digits or more.

Ares and Aphrodite were powerful people even among mid-level gods, so the combined number of their guild members easily exceeded a thousand.

Since each of the apostles also possessed considerable power, it may have been an unreasonable request for her.

“Fucking bitch. to the end… .”

Ares, who was glaring at Athena as she left, shouted to the sky.

“Phobos!”

And with that, something boomed in the sky! and fell.

Phobos, the god of defeat.

A god with two pairs of wings that looked exactly like Ares glared at us with shining blood-red eyes.

Phobos, god of defeat.

Just like Nike, the goddess of victory who was always by Athena’s side, his son is always with Ares on the battlefield.

“This is not an easy opponent. “Everyone, focus.”

Fenrir lunged at Ares, aiming for the nape of his neck.

“Khaaaap!”

Ares’ sword strike split the ground.

Kugoogung!

-Wow!

Even the place where Fenrir was standing was completely destroyed.

-It is a force that cannot be ignored.

Fenrir’s skin cracked slightly and blood began to flow.

And when he was distracted by Fenrir, the sight in front of me was in the blind spot of my vision.

“Where are you going!”

Phobos blocked it.

The god of defeat, whose face looked exactly like Ares, stabbed me in the chest with the javelin in his hand.

He caught the spear and used its power to swing Gleipnir.

The ringing sword wrapped around the guy’s thigh.

Suddenly!

“Kwaaaak!”

“Cheet!”

The wound is shallower than expected.

I thought I cut him well, but the armor he was wearing was quite durable.

“Damn it!”

As Phobos shouted, his body began to tremble.

It was fear, the most basic human survival instinct.

As befits the prestige of a god who instills fear in the enemy and causes them to retreat, I felt my heart being tightened just by his shouting.

I gritted my teeth and looked at Phobos standing in front of me.

“… “It’s annoying.”

“You’d better not even dream of approaching your father.”

Phobos flapped his wings and his eyes lit up.

The red eye glow that seemed to pierce a person’s heart was enough to give one goosebumps just by looking at it.

I could tell just by looking at his eyes that this person was a transcendent being completely different from humans.

‘If someone with a weak heart saw it, they would have panicked.’

They may have been afraid and tried to run away, or they may have gone crazy and killed the person next to them, mistaking them for an enemy.

I realized why Ares was able to become stronger as the scale of the war grew.

It neutralizes enemies by stimulating human fear.

They use him to commit ultimate destruction.

I only found out after standing face to face.

My body is heavy.

I wanted to quickly pass by him, but I felt like I was stranded in a swamp.

My arms became weak and my movements became slow, as if I was drowning.

‘It’s a fairly annoying ability.’

I gritted my teeth and stared at Phobos.

It would be difficult to be stranded by this guy for a long time.

In the meantime, Ares was dealing with Jormungand and Fenrir alone.

Even though he was dealing with spirits equivalent to high-ranking gods at the same time, he showed that he was never pushed back.

‘That’s a mid-level god?’

It was stronger than I thought.

I was able to immediately realize why Athena told me not to look down on Ares.

Only then did I understand the meaning of the look Athena gave me when she went to deal with Aphrodite and Ares’ guild members.

This is why Ares says you have to stick with him.

“Whoa.”

I focused my mind while looking at the guy.

Recalls memories from a past life.

I grabbed the sword, reliving the countless experiences I had fought.

An attack that has been used countless times.

The most basic attack technique I have used.

It was the only attack that worked against God, even though I had no abilities whatsoever.

The reason I was able to join the final expedition.

sting.

‘Concentrate and just do it once.’

There are no second chances.

When the other person is still looking down on me.

Now was the only chance.

I grabbed the dragon slayer and glared at Phobos standing across from me.

I overcame the fear and fear that he endlessly instilled in me, and took a step forward.

“Aaaah!”

Taking that as a signal, Phobos also swung his spear.

And during its attack, there was only one gap that was visible.

I stabbed there.
