Episode 126
“You really did it. When you said it would be sealed, I was skeptical… .”
Yonderson, Thor’s favorite apostle, said as he looked at the sealed entrance to the Abyss.
Even while we were sealing the Abyss, his body was covered in blood and fluid, as if a fierce blood battle had taken place outside.
With his yellow hair and beard growing thick and his body covered in blood, he looked like a typical Viking warrior.
Nevertheless, I saw his body without any visible wounds.
The blood that flows will not be his.
“I heard that you rescued people who were stranded inside.”
After finishing speaking, he lowered his head.
“I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the Thor Guild. “Thank you very much.”
All other guild members followed him who bowed his head.
“I just did what I had to do.”
“… … .”
Jönderson swallowed with his mouth closed.
“… It was something we had to do. Please accept my thanks.”
He lowered his head.
‘Was he originally this kind of person?’
In my past life, I had only seen him as a berserker, so seeing him like this was somewhat unfamiliar.
In fact, I was even prepared to fight them after attacking the Abyss.
Because he was a person who did not mind going to hell if it was Thor’s command.
I thought he would rush at me with his excessive loyalty.
But he said thank you first.
‘So you’re not yet a murderer who blindly cuts down enemies?’
It was after the Second Advent that I met Jönderson.
Perhaps something happened in the process.
‘I lost all of my subordinates due to this Abyss explosion, or I became more blindly trusting in Thor after being rescued by him.’
But that wasn’t the case now.
“It was the Abyss that contained the most magic stones, but it was closed like this.”
After speaking, Yonderson sighed.
It was a face that weighed the loss of losing this place and the value of the safety gained by attacking it.
In the future, the Thor Guild will try to find the Abyss to become a new source of funds.
However, it will not be easy due to this sudden surge.
‘Because I learned that an Abyss that is not completely sealed is a time bomb that may explode at any moment.’
Just as I was thinking that, Yonderson looked at Promise standing next to me and asked.
“Who is the boy next to him?”
“This is a friend I rescued during the raid.”
“okay. If you don’t mind, we will take care of your personal safety… .”
Even before Yondersson finished speaking.
“no! “I’m not going!”
Promise clung to me and insisted.
“… “It’s been like this since a while ago.”
“okay.”
Jondersohn looked at me for a moment and quietly opened his mouth.
“Dojin is a completely different person from what is known to the public. “I thought you were a murderer who mercilessly kills gods and humans.”
“You can’t really trust rumors.”
“ha ha ha! Is that so?”
Jondersson, laughing heartily, asked while holding the axe.
“When asked if you came to kill Thor before entering the Abyss, you said that you might do so someday.”
“you’re right.”
“Are you really planning to kill Thor?”
Jondersson’s hands tightened as he asked me.
Based on my answer, it seemed ready to attack at any moment.
I looked at his hand for a moment and nodded.
“I guess so. “I don’t know when that will happen, though.”
“Now that you’ve heard that, you know that you can’t send it back.”
“I recommend not fighting. Mr. Jönderson and the people behind him won’t be able to stop me.”
“Thor will be here soon. If we stop Dojin, he will soon come and punish us.”
I shook my head.
“Thor can’t come.”
“yes?”
“Because he is suspected of causing Peratus’ Abyss to run away.”
It was then.
“Are you fighting? “Then can I kill these people?”
Promis asked me with a bright smile.
It was a lightly spoken word, but the words made everyone except me blush.
Promise must have sown death in them.
Even though it looked like this, he was a god from another world who had just been born in the Abyss.
Even if a significant portion of the power was lost when the Abyss disappeared, the pressure would be unbearable for an ordinary human.
“stop.”
I calmed Promise down.
“If Dojin says that, then I will!”
Promise smiled innocently like a boy again and nodded.
“Please put off fighting me until later.”
Jondersson, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, kept his mouth shut.
There would be no intention of fighting in this situation.
What he wants is human punishment for killing Thor, not his own death.
“Then let’s go.”
I bowed my head and left the place.
No one could stop me.

The news that Thor’s magic stone reacted with the runaway Abyss of Peratus spread quickly.
“They say that this Abyss runaway is due to Thor?”
“Is that real?”
“The news came out earlier. “Thor was sentenced to absolute imprisonment.”
“No, what do you regret about Thor?”
The story of Thor was on the news and on people’s lips.
The god of humanity who caused Peratus’ Abyss explosion.
An accident caused by the god who was always believed to protect this world.
I wonder if it was really an accident.
A lot of words were exchanged between people.
“But can you really believe it? “The god who was thought to protect humanity, a god at the level of a god, awakened the Abyss.”
“We’ll have to watch. “Wouldn’t they be punished properly?”
“What if we don’t punish? What should we believe and fight for? No, before that, is it really true that those gods are for us?”
It was not easy to regain trust once it was broken.
As long as there was a suspicion that God might not necessarily be good, people could not easily believe in them.
‘The god we follow can threaten us at any time.’
All eyes were focused on Thor’s punishment.
Gods, people, and apostles who believe in God.
“You idiot.”
And Zeus, who valued the dignity of the gods more than anyone else, was not pleased with this situation.
Thor.
A god powerful enough to be said to be the closest to a new god in Norse mythology.
Not only because of its power, but also because of the way it took the lead on numerous fronts and crushed the enemy, it was an object of envy not only among humans but also among gods.
However, God, who should be more exemplary and leading than anyone else, acted recklessly and was in danger of losing the trust of humans.
“Until the great work is completed, we must reduce our greed and move carefully.”
The incident has become too big.
In addition to property damage, human damage was significant.
Even the Abyss of Tongmanga, the god of sloth managed by Thor, went berserk.
This means that it is not just the problem of Abyss alone.
‘Not only the Abyss managed by Thor, but all Abyss must be investigated anew.’
In addition, we had to prepare for what the apostates, who knew how to make the Abyss run rampant, would do in the future.
In fact, perhaps we should consider ourselves fortunate that it ended this way.
“The question is, how did Thor know how? … .”
If there was a connection with an apostate, it was not a matter that would simply end in probation.
We might have to lower his status or, in extreme cases, permanently expel him.
Permanent expulsion.
It meant taking away all the rights of a god, which was practically the same as a death sentence for a god.
The highest level of punishment a god can receive.
So far, there are only two gods who have received this punishment.
Prometheus in Greek mythology and Heimdall in Norse mythology.
Those who committed the same sin were unable to return to godhood and ended up living as humans.
However, it was not easy to impose the same punishment as them.
‘Because Thor is a force that can never be lost.’
However, it was a problem that I could not close my eyes to.
There was a guest who came to see Zeus, who was feeling frustrated.
“Zeus, isn’t absolute imprisonment until the punishment is decided too much punishment?”
Along with Loki, he was Odin, the only main god of Northern Europe.
King of wizards and king of the Norse gods.
An omniscient god who can even see the future.
It was a famous story that he punished numerous otherworldly gods of the Abyss with Gungnir, a magic spear that never broke.
Wearing an eye patch, he stroked his graying beard and scolded Zeus.
“That’s what I want to say, Odin. How on earth did you manage the gods under your command? “What is the case for allowing Thor to cause an Abyss explosion?”
“Even if Athena hadn’t dug it up, it wouldn’t have grown this big.”
“Does that mean what happened goes away?”
“You could have made it something that never happened. “The culprit could have been changed to someone other than God.”
“You didn’t really think that was possible, did you?”
Odin spat out his business, either that or not.
“I hope the punishment for Thor will be dismissed as nothing. “We can’t fight the gods of this world without him.”
“It’s impossible. It’s already gotten too much attention. “It’s a problem that could break the trust of all gods.”
“We can’t wait to see the battle lines collapse while trying to protect trust.”
“It’s up to me to decide on Thor’s disposition. “You haven’t forgotten our promise, have you?”
Early Advent.
An agreement made by the masters of the three mythologies, Egyptian, Greek, and Norse mythology, which had the most gods and the strongest power.
The punishment of the Norse gods was the Greek god Zeus.
The punishment of the Greek gods is Raga, the Egyptian god.
A covenant in which Odin, the Norse god, would take charge of the punishment of the Egyptian gods.
By promising to keep each other in check and punish everyone equally, they were able to build trust among humans and an alliance between gods.
“I want to make an exception.”
“That one exception will ruin us all. “Yes, you should have managed the gods under your command well.”
“Zeus! It’s enough if someone else sacrifices himself and takes on the role of the real culprit… .”
“I will punish you according to my principles. This incident harms the prestige of not only Northern Europe but all gods. “I cannot accept this.”
“… Are you really going to fight?”
“If you want. If that happens, many people will doubt the authenticity of the Aesir gods, including Odin and Thor.”
Odin gritted his teeth.
But there was no other way.
Because the sins committed by Thor could not be denied.
“I knew what it meant. “Let me engrave those words in her heart.”
With those words, Odin left.
“Whoa, damn it.”
Zeus felt his head throbbing.
It was to die for.

“Dojin! “What should I do now?”
After hearing the news of Thor’s arrest, I saw Promise running around in front of me and behaving like a child.
‘What on earth is this guy?’
Not only was his ego so strong that he threw away his place as a god, but his strength was even stronger than that of a normal otherworldly god.
This child is like a child, but sometimes like a devil.
No matter how much I looked, I couldn’t figure it out.
‘Sooyeon doesn’t even know… . then… .’
There was only one person, one god, who could have known about this.
‘Athena.’
I felt like I had to go see her again.
