Chapter 376 - Thanatos (6)
Chapter 376 – Thanatos (6)
Puk. Puk.
Kirikiri pressed the floor hard with her feet.
Traces of digging remained throughout her garden.
Gods don’t care about anything other than what they think is important.
Of course, they don’t even consider the fine dirt floors they are trampling on.
It was after a long conversation.
There were close to one hundred gods gathered in one place to talk, so this much damage was natural.
“Hnngg.”
Kirikiri sniffed hard and eagerly wandered around her garden, then she found a bunch of dirt and a wildflower uprooted.
Fortunately, neither the stem was broken nor the roots hurt.
Kirikiri planted the wildflowers back in the ground.
Kirikiri was an unusual god.
She was unusual in many ways, but also in that she was very interested in regeneration.
Instead of returning the garden to perfect condition herself, she waited and helped it recover on its own.
“It’s hard work.”
Beside Kirikiri, there was a person approaching gently.
Kirikiri was satisfied with the steps.
The other person didn’t care about weeds in the garden, but respected Kirikiri’s efforts to maintain the garden.
“Another tail is down.”
Kirikiri asked.
“I had to get out as quickly as possible.”
The God of Sacrifice replied.
As Kirikiri heard the answer, she thought the God of Sacrifice was like a lizard.
“It seems like it was a mistake to have the challenger in contact with the God of the Sky.”
The God of Sacrifice said she was worried that an unexpected variable was affecting her plans.
Kirikiri didn’t think so.
If it hadn’t been for the knowledgeable God of the Sky, there would have been no god to tackle, knowing that it was a trap.
“What about the other gods?”
“The God of Light is shining, the God of Regret is still regretting something, the God of Devotion is sad, and the God of Play is just fluttering.”
It was a routine reaction.
The actions of the gods were easy to predict.
They responded consistently in any situation.
The ancient gods of the Hundred Gods Temple, which existed before the cataclysm, were more prominent than those of the later era.
“… The God of Slowness?”
The God of Sacrifice seemed to be frightened when asked that one phrase, as her voice trembled.
It wasn’t unusual to remember what the God of Slowness meant to them.
“The God of Balance is blocking it. It won’t be long until the God of Slowness comes out.”
“If the God of Slowness emerges, it will collapse immediately.”
The God of Sacrifice said so, still anxious.
Kirikiri did not share the same worries as the God of Sacrifice.
The God of Slowness does not come out.
That is the world’s greatest blessing.
The God of Slowness does not decide.
It doesn’t move.
It just exists.
It exists in all spaces at the same time.
It exists in the past and in the future at the same time.
Therefore, the concept of movement or a change of state can not exist in the God of Slowness.
The God of Slowness is a god who can not see the world from a first-person perspective.
To the God of Slowness, the world is such a thing, although there once existed a self called the God of Slowness with a taste and a will.
It was nothing more than a thought that the universe accidentally gave birth to.
That thought has become the most powerful deity since the beginning.
And the gods who followed that god and the gods who opposed it made the world of today.
Kirikiri did not worry about the God of Slowness.
The God of Slowness will continue to exist as it is now.
“What are you going to do with the Thanatos side? Should I go back again?”
Kirikiri shook her head.
The God of Sacrifice had already sacrificed most of her sanctuary.
Now Thanatos needed a stronger deterrent.
“If all the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple die yet, you will be in trouble.”
“I will be in trouble when they die? Will the challenger die before that?”
Kirikiri shook his head again.
Challenger Lee Ho-jae was a god who was so fierce that he was obsessed with victory and tied it to causality.
“If there’s no chance, will you run away to avoid losing?”
Kirikiri shook her head again.
Perhaps because she sacrificed too many tails, the God of Sacrifice was showing a rather stupid appearance.
Kirikiri thought it was better off letting her rest.
In Lee Ho-jae’s causality, the result was not a victory.
It was the completion of the divine nature that weaves causality.
Processes and results did not always have to flow from the past to the future.
“The challenger doesn’t have to worry about it.”
Lee Ho-jae has already finished all preparations to achieve victory.
That’s why he could have acquired causality.
The only concern was the God of Order.
To the God of Order, who had already advanced to a realm Kirikiri was not aware of, she was unsure of how causality could have an effect on the God of Order.
Rather than worrying about Lee Ho-jae’s safety right now, the priority was to clear up Thanatos’ situation.
It needs strong power.
To disperse the gods of the Pantheon and Lee Ho-jae, the usual way will not work.
You will need a very extreme method.
Enough to even dare to face it.
There is only one god that is suitable.
A god who is eagerly waiting to do something for himself.
The hottest, shiniest god in the Hundred Gods Temple.
“Hngg… I hate it.”
Kirikiri raised her hand and pulled her ears down, covering her face.
The other person was a god she really didn’t want to meet.
It was wisest not to be associated with that god, but she needed the power of that god right away.
Kirikiri was upset, humming alone in the fields that had been scattered up.
*
[Can you handle it?]
“Nearly.”
Ahbooboo asked anxiously.
It was worrisome.
Because the other side they were facing was the gods of the Pantheon.
Although they were reduced to a number of a few hundred and looked like defeated soldiers, in reality it was not like that at all.
In the virtual world of Ahbooboo, I fired a wide range attack to reduce their numbers as much as possible.
Thanks to this, I was able to drastically reduce their numbers as I wanted, but their real power remained.
The God of Hope praised them for not being pushed back at all compared to the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple.
In fact, the powerful people who ruled most of the universe remained intact.
When it comes to this, I feel as if I am inspecting defective products.
I think I only did good things for others.
Of course, the gods of the Pantheon seemed to never think so much.
That was another problem.
The gods were basically arrogant and indolent.
It was natural.
Because they were gods.
Because I was a person who proved some of the laws of the world.
And the characteristics of those gods gave me great confidence.
When we had equal skills, it was obvious that I didn’t even have to see the odds between a person who flutters and a person who runs desperately.
Most of the gods I dealt with were the former, and I was always the latter.
However, the gods of the Pantheon now seemed to have a lot of malice.
It was even after they were summoned to the virtual world of Ahbooboo and experienced the wildness of when they were a monster.
During the battle, there was a possibility of showing recklessness that would never be seen normally.
[Don’t be pretentious, why don’t you just run away?]
Soon Grandmother and the giants came.
I only had to hold on until then.
A meteor shower was pouring from space.
Along with that, various attacks were flying from all directions to prevent my movement.
I had to get closer and move before all the escape routes were blocked.
I was able to penetrate deeply into the gods of the Pantheon.
It was much better to dig into the middle of them than to confront the gods of the Pantheon.
Of course, that didn’t mean it was safe.
[I remember we had an agreement!]
The God of Flexibility screamed and swung his huge arm.
It was an arm that looked as if it were fluffy like a liquid.
At first glance, it was poison or something like that.
It wasn’t one with which my poison tolerance worked.
It was a thing made with unique divine power.
“That agreement is broken!”
Evading the arm of the God of Flexibility, I threw Seregia at their enormous body.
“Because you guys hurt my stiff friend!”
[Kaak!]
Seregia was accurately embedded in the body of the God of Flexibility.
Compared to their enormous body, it was almost as if she was a small thorn, but the effect was fatal.
Until the giants arrived, I was confident in my ability to hold on.
I had confidence in my skills, but it was also because of Seregia’s ability which was specialized against the gods.
“Zit Pop.”
F*** you, you bastard.
Actually, I didn’t like it before.
This is the second time we met, but I continued to unfold Zit Pop and swore inwardly at the God of Flexibility.
Zit Pop was harmful while the divine power was suppressed.
I rushed to finish the God of Flexibility, who couldn’t even get out of the range of Zit Pop.
Then something huge fell over my head.
The impact made me fall toward the ground.
The barriers spread out on the ground were broken like a sheet of paper, and I fell on the ground of Thanatos, which had become a large field of dust.
Looking around, I could understand the situation.
The gods of the Pantheon were just focusing their attacks on me, who was close to the God of Flexibility.
It seems that they didn’t even care about the health of their colleague, the God of Flexibility.
It’s too harsh.
The God of Flexibility died instantly in a series of attacks while his divine power was restrained, and their huge body scattered around the ground did not move even after it was shattered.
And.
Meteor showers struck exactly where I was.
I couldn’t properly prepare for defense or avoid their position.
It was perfect timing without even an inch of error.
Damn, is there a god who can foresee short-term to the future?
“Seregia!”
Seregia, buried in the remains of the God of Flexibility, returned to my hands.
I just held on.
Bang bang bang!
In the endless falling of the meteor shower, I repeatedly bounced back and forth while floating in the air.
After a while, my body fell to the ground again to see if the meteor shower had stopped.
It was a long distance from the place where the meteor shower hit.
In the distance, near the horizon, a huge tsunami caused by the meteor shower was visible, so I flew quite far.
Before even knowing the exact location, the Gods of the Pantheon came down to the ground and rushed again.
The Gods of the Pantheon were seen with their huge bodies shortened.
Yes, it’s wise to do that.
Because the smaller the target, the harder it is to stab Seregia into them.
Decreased weight does not mean that the gods’ abilities decreased.
Usually, even if the gods died soon, they maintained their enormous form, but the gods of the Pantheon seemed to be so full of malice that they didn’t even care about pride.
However, I was confident in my interpersonal skills.
Far away, a tsunami is approaching.
Soon this battlefield will be swept away by water.
Sounds fun!
This mud fight was really to my taste.
“Ahhhhhh!”
Maybe I was feeling too overwhelmed, I screamed at myself.
Whether it was a signal or not, the gods of the Pantheon ran back.
Reminiscent of a game of barrage, several Pantheon gods moved freely and attempted close-quarter combat with me in the midst of long-range attacks that flew in the blindspot of my vision.
Somehow they are working together.
Or maybe someone is commanding them.
All attacks could not be avoided.
The sharp nails of a nearby Pantheon god flew toward the side of my face.
Turning my head and avoiding the hand, I further narrowed the distance.
I leaped to the nearest Pantheon god.
My friend, I don’t know if you’ve ever been attacked by this kind of attack.
At the same time, I made Seregia turn into a dagger and stabbed the opponent’s shoulder.
Long-ranged attacks targeting me hit.
I endured this time and time again.
However, the Pantheon god, whose divine power was suppressed by being stabbed by Seregia, could not withstand the aftermath.
[Kyaaa..….]
Surprisingly, the sound that the god made when it died was no different than when a human being was struck and killed.
After killing one, I saw another rushing from the front.
I guess it was aiming at my gap that was hit by attacks consecutively.
It is never a good judgment to hit head-on.
I ran face to face at the rushing Pantheon god, and kicked it away.
The kicked god suddenly crashed into the tsunami wave that was just around the corner.
A huge ripple broke out and the tsunami cracked.
And a huge wave poured over the battlefield.
Shaaa.
The gods of the Pantheon pushed the water away by force.
In an instant, a huge colosseum made of water walls was created.
A huge shadow cast into the Colosseum.
The huge ice giant, who completely obscured the sun’s rays, said.
“Is it fashionable to get smaller?”
Grandmother, spitting out a murmur, struck her fist down towards the Colosseum of Water.
The water wall that had been filling the area was pushed away by the shock wave.
“King, it’s a little disappointing that you were enjoying yourself without us.”
Suddenly, Grandmother, who had changed into a small form like the gods of the Pantheon, complained.
Starting with Grandmother, new things were added one after another.
500 giants under Grandmother.
Reinforcements arrived.
The gods of the Pantheon stopped attacking whether they were surprised by the sudden appearance of giants or whether they needed to talk among themselves.
I don’t care.
“King, what should I do?”
“Annihilate. Here, kill all named gods and do not miss any.”
I didn’t even want to think any more about the Hundred Gods Temple or what Kirikiri was trying to gain from this war.
I have to end this damn war here with my own hands.
The God of Hope was showing abnormal symptoms of fear of the aftermath of the war.
But contrary to those worries, the war ended today without any further escalation.
And I won this time too.
