407. Pantheon (4)
Meeting Hall.
Arya’s guidance led me to the center of the pantheon, which was like a gigantic meeting hall.
Of course, now that Aria’s guidance has also ended, it is not known whether this is really the meeting place of the pantheon, but it seemed so.
“...”
Actually, the ancient deities belonging to the pantheon were gathered around a huge round table-shaped structure.
‘Yes...’
And then.
「...」
「The Dark God is very proud of you and wants to talk to you soon
.
」 Realizing that I haven’t met him for a long time, I pout my lips feeling weakly sad.」
‘It’s been a while.’
Only then did I smile when I saw the faces of those I knew among the ancient deities.
All of a sudden, the Dark God, the Demon God, and the Dragon God were sitting around a huge round table, expressing the joy of a silent reunion with pleasant smiles.
However, that does not mean that all the ancient deities at the center of the pantheon are unanimously favorable to this side.
‘Did some of them hide their bodies with divinity?’
Perhaps some of the ancient gods on the side of the pantheon hide themselves in the light of divinity, perhaps because they don’t want to show their bodies to this side... ‘Well, anyway.
‘
It was funny.
Aren’t the people in front of us imprinting the concept divinity itself in this universe, being overwhelming beings with the immortality of conceptualization?
Since they are like ancient gods, even if they try to hide their divinity, they cannot easily hide it without borrowing the power of some myth or the supernatural ability of a divinity.
And in addition to that, this side became an ancient god on their own after climbing the Tower of Trials, so it was possible to guess at a glance what level of divinity and spirituality they had.
“...”
But...
“Ha.”
It was strange.
“True...”
Even if I’m one of the Ancient Gods, I must feel some pressure because I’m facing the hostility mixed with the divinity from many Ancient Gods.
“It’s ridiculous.”
However, despite the fact that quite a few of the ancient deities here radiated divine light and created pressure, there was no sense of tension.
“I thought I had the power to match that statement because they said they were displeased with me at the Tower of Trials.”
And...
“You guys.”
That means one thing.
“The god of transcendence and death makes a cold sneer while looking at the many ancient deities.” [
—What kind of confidence did you have to talk bullshit to me like that? ]
Among the ancient gods of the pantheon, most of the powers are similar to or slightly higher than that of this side’s divinity.
‘At most, it’s just a god of birth or a little stronger than that.’
It is felt.
Most of the ancient gods emit divine light from beyond the gigantic round table.
Even though this side has the fastest growth rate among the ancient deities, that is not a reason to understand that their divinity is lower than expected.
However...
「Some of the many ancient gods look at you and get very angry!」
「Some of the many ancient gods look at you and get very angry...!」
「Some of the many ancient gods look at you. Contrary to the judgment of this side ,
most of the ancient gods do not think so?
「....」
「The god of arrogance shines feelings of murder and fury against you.」 「The
god of pride reveals great hostility toward you.」
I feel it.”
In an instant, a large number of ancient deities released wrathful divinities and developed a level of power that could distort space itself.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu—!
But...
Actually, there was no difference.
「The god of arrogance looks at you and expresses hostile feelings of repulsion as if she could never admit it.」
[...Ha. Are you a transcendent? What about that? You dare to discuss transcendentalism in front of the masters of this universe? can’t be ]
Before I knew it, the god of arrogance and the god of arrogance were shining with nervousness, anxiety, and murderous intent that were different from before.
「The eternal god reveals his infinitely great murderous intent against you and refines his divinity.」
[I’m glad everyone agrees. Probably, the givers of the pantheon would agree without disagreement. Accordingly, the ancient deity, the god of transcendence and death, Han Seong-yoon, will be summarily executed. ]
But—.
「The god of darkness looks at the worthless things in the pantheon and speaks coldly.
」 ]
Then, the moment when the god of darkness, who was quietly observing the conversation between the god of arrogance, the god of pride, and the god of permanence, lightly exuded divinity.
───.
In an instant, an infinitely cold darkness filled the place.
[ ───!? ]
Not even that.
The god of arrogance, the god of arrogance, and the god of permanence were almost swallowed up in the silent darkness, imprisoned.
Without even a single act of resistance that could be called resistance, such as bringing out divine abilities or divine status.
It was only then that I realized that a darkness of unfathomable depth had risen everywhere, except where this side was standing and where the Demon God and the Dragon God were.
「The Dark God laughs at things that are no longer worth paying attention to.」
[Whoops... Right right. You guys would be better off doing it without any more fuss. That’s what suits you best. ]
It was truly a colossal gap.
“...”
I felt it.
That the god of darkness in front of him, as well as the demon god and the dragon god, were among the ancient deities with powers beyond standard.
Even though the ancient deities of the pantheon were defenseless because they did not know that the god of darkness would attack them from behind, but that performance was an art close to art.
[I was allowed to stand here because at least one interesting story could come out of you, but it was just a story that had no value. ]
The God of Darkness tuk-tuk- tapped the large round table with his slender fingers and spoke nonchalantly.
[All they talk about is the Tower of Trials, or that you too can become immortal by a newly appearing Transcendentalist. ]
Before she knew it, beyond her black robes, her eyes were shining with disappointment, fatigue, and weak contempt.
[Moreover, the principals of this pantheon were not supposed to be you, but they arbitrarily tried to get our consent. ]
The Dark God continued his words as if he was no longer interested.
[Please let me not be disappointed anymore. ]
And.
“The dark god coldly issues a warning.
” ]
Not even that.
「The demon no longer seems to like that kind of thing, but she rests her chin and speaks indifferently.」
[Ah-. yes yes Wouldn’t that be bad too? It can be a gift to Han Seong-yoon in return for becoming the new head of the Mansinjeon. ]
「As if the dragon god could not wait any longer, he urged the god of darkness.」
[ Whoa. Can’t we decide how to deal with those things later? Rather, hurry up and talk to that heir. That’s why you’ve been waiting ]
Now that it’s at this point, the demon and dragon god also help each other as if they can’t stand it anymore.
Upon hearing this, the god of arrogance, the god of arrogance, and the god of permanence stopped struggling and stopped groaning.
It looks like a small animal standing in front of a predator became frightened and stiff and could no longer move.
but for a while.
「The dark god looks at you and smiles bashfully.
」 Hey, I want to hear your answer. ]
The God of Darkness, as well as the Demon God and the Dragon God, were looking this way with interest in their eyes.
[Please select. ]
He spoke in an excited tone as if he was very curious about the dark god.
[Whether he will transfer to the pantheon of gods and become a god who rules the earth or other worlds as the new main god, and now live peacefully under our protection. ]
The situation where those who achieved the highest rank among the ancient deities are all sending interest, anticipation, and questioning glances.
[Or...]
The time has come to choose whether to go to the Tower of Trials or the Pantheon.
[Despite the possibility of losing everything you’ve built yourself up until now, do you still want to become an uncertain person called a transcendentalist in the Tower of Trials?]
That’s very clear.
