Chapter 405

405. Pantheon (2)

Before I knew it, I narrowed my eyes while staring at the system messages that appeared in front of me.

“I invite you from the temple of the gods.”

“Are you sure you accept?”

“Y/N”

“....”

It made sense.

‘What is this again....’

Pantheon.

Isn’t that a place where not only many ancient deities but also many higher deities are gathered?

Perhaps the pantheon side was wary or fearful just because they were chosen as a challenger to the Tower of Trials.

‘Invitation...?’

Knowing that, I felt a contradiction.

In fact, it is safe to say that there is no reason for the Pantheon Temple to send me an invitation.

If that’s the case, why would the Pantheon side send an invitation under the pretext of adding compensation?

At this point, I wonder if the fact that the pantheon is sending an invitation itself is either a fake or a trap.

But even so, if you recall the system messages you saw, you could see that this wasn’t fake.

– Addition of compensation calculation.

-Manshinjeon wants additional breakthrough rewards for challenger Han Seong-yoon.

-A number of ancient deities on the side of the Mansinjeon paid a certain price to obtain the right to invite the challenger Seongyoon Han.

‘I heard that a number of ancient deities belonging to the pantheon paid a certain price and obtained the right to invite them.’

From what we have seen so far, the system messages sent from the Tower of Trials do not contain any lies.

‘It’s highly likely that it’s not a lie that the Pantheon will invite me or that there is an additional compensation settlement.’

Even if it’s bad news for this side, the Tower of Trials has never played with system messages.

“...”

and then.

“under.”

That means one thing.

“I think I know roughly.”

It’s nothing else... “The god of transcendence and death is ridiculing the pantheon’s

unreasonable tricks.”

]

It was simple.

It didn’t stop at tearing and killing one of the ancient deities, the god of birth, and in addition to that, this side got out of the lowest hierarchy among the ancient deities.

Then there was only one thing the other side wanted.

Many ancient deities or higher deities on the side of the pantheon want to see how strong I have become.

stupidly.

‘I know.’

But...

‘There’s no reason why the guys in the pantheon would respond to the tricks they did because they wanted to see me.’

Why?

‘But...’

There is no reason to avoid it.

‘At most, seeing how strong I’ve become is all there is to it.’

Before I knew it, I was feeling annoyed with a weak laugh full of anger.

‘Isn’t that all?’

In fact, even though I am a chosen challenger in the Tower of Trials, am I not also a cosmic being who became an ancient deity and built up conceptualization?

“I don’t know anything about that.”

Then it was just that simple.

Shuk-.

「Accept the invitation.」

「Move to the pantheon.」

「Since many ancient deities paid a certain price in the pantheon, part of the compensation calculation will be added.」

“Ha.”

In an instant, system messages appear and the entire space is distorted, revealing the divine starlights that had been hidden by the Tower of Trials one by one.

“I’ll hang out with you.”

Before I knew it, I took the glances of many ancient gods one by one as if nothing had happened and spoke leisurely.

“Even if it wasn’t so, I wanted to know.”

Depending on the difference in point of view, this too could be used as an opportunity for the disgusting invitation sent by the Temple of God.

“What level of strength were most of the ancient gods of the pantheon?”

That is...

“So...”

It’s nothing else—.

“Let’s see.”

In a word, it meant that many ancient gods did not measure my strength.

“How strong are you guys that you are barking like that?”

no.

[ ...It is an honor for a small creature like me to once again serve one of the absolutes of the universe following the giant tree labyrinth. ]

Before I knew it, a gray haired woman wearing a black robe was approaching from behind where I was standing, radiating feelings close to worship.

[ Han Seong-yoon. ]

At this point, I can’t help but know.

“...”

Only then did I reply, looking at the face of the girl I had seen in the giant tree labyrinth.

“Really...”

It’s nothing else—.

“Long time no see.”

It was simple.

Originally, when I was in the giant tree labyrinth, the god of darkness must have lent me one of the 4th grade apostles.

And as a result, I was reunited with a female apostle who faithfully followed the god of darkness who allowed me to clear the final layer of the giant tree labyrinth.

“Aria-sama.”

That too by accident.

***

I already know about the gray-haired beauty in front of me.

“...”

Giant tree labyrinth.

At this point, I had been supported by her at one of the big events held by the Tower of Trials, which felt like a distant past.

Incredibly.

It was only then that he was able to clearly understand why one of his skills was strangely attracted to him.

could notice

– A master-servant contract was established with mutual consent.

-All stats of 4th grade apostle ‘Arya’ increase by +14.

-A 4th-level apostle, ‘Arya’, can never go against the master-servant relationship.

“...”

In fact, because of one of her skills, she has made Arya her servant since she was in the giant tree labyrinth, so she felt this bizarre attraction.

‘It’s a bit disastrous.’

At this point, I feel guilty.

Even if this one used the skill considering the case of being betrayed by the apostle sent by the god of darkness, it wouldn’t be too much.

But...

Aria, who had become one of the divine apostles rather than a 4th-class apostle, spoke in a passionate tone as if she was moved.

[ iced coffee...! I can’t imagine a great being remembering a small thing like me...! I was impressed with that broad generosity...!! ]

One, and that for a while.

“...”

I stared blankly at Aria’s face, then changed the topic and spit out words in surprise.

“no. There is no such thing as that. More than that, it feels amazing to have even become a Goddess Apostle. A lot has changed since I was in the giant tree labyrinth.”

[ .... ]

“?”

It’s just...

[That... I’m sorry. Even if Han Seong-yoon says that, it just makes me miserable.... Isn’t that right? ]

“Yes?”

[It’s because you’re a nobleman who has the power to change the arc from enemies in the giant tree labyrinth rather than me. ]

“....”

Unlike the way I was a mortal when I was in the giant tree labyrinth, I became an ancient deity like the idol of many deities, so it was only a word close to ridicule, not praise.

[That he was only a mortal with a weak divinity, but he became an ancient god and became the only slayer of the only ancient god in the universe. ]

Before I knew it, Aria’s awe-filled eyes sparkled, followed by a voice close to pure admiration.

[It’s an anecdote that has been discussed countless times not only in this one pantheon, but also among many gods in this universe. It’s nothing compared to a minor like me. ]

“....”

It was absurd.

I never thought it would become such a hot topic that this person became an ancient deity after climbing the Tower of Trials.

Somehow, it sounded like I had unintentionally become a star among the gods, so I laughed out loud.

but for a while.

[You can see that Manshinjeon invited Seongyoon Han in a similar context. ]

At that moment, Aria brushed her gray hair and continued to speak in a serious tone.

[God of birth. Dyrmoa. It’s like a worm that even touched the Holy Relic of the Dark God. After it was murdered by Han Seong-yoon, a new story began to circulate. ]

“?”

[Most of the ancient deities of the Pantheon are foolish to find out about Han Seong-yoon thoroughly and exclude them, but the dark gods, demons, and dragon gods are not like that. ]

“...”

Only then did I realize that the Pantheon side did not invite me just to find out how strong this side had become.

[ ...Whoa. Among the ancient deities of the pantheon, the main gods propose one thing. That is, we want Han Seong-yoon to lead us out of the Tower of Trials. ]

It’s nothing else...

[That is-. ]

Among the many ancient deities, the dark gods, devils, and dragon gods who value me are not the purpose of estimating the power of this side. 「The god of Amhyang looks at you

and makes a proposal

with her eyes sparkling in awe.

」 Many ancient deities no longer wanted me to climb the Tower of Trials and become strong, but to become the main god of the pantheon.
