Chapter 882

Minhyuk felt an intense heartache. Veyron might have died underneath the rushing torrent of water with his eyes wide open, but because of his sacrifice, many were given the chance to smile once again. The gods that struggled to protect the Land of the Gods and the surviving celestial dwellers could all live and laugh again.

A true hero.

Minhyuk wondered if he could smile while asking questions like that if he were the one in Veyrons shoes. No matter how prepared one was for their death, they would still feel shock and fear once they heard that they had died. Perhaps it would even solidify their determination just to run away and live. However, Veyron was different. He was showing a heartfelt smile on his face.

I see, one can still be happy even if they chose to sacrifice themselves. Just when the thought flashed in his head

[You have achieved the Easter Egg: Heros Teachings.]

This was the first time Minhyuk had heard about an Easter egg like this, so the notification was a surprise. After all, there was no case where one obtained an Easter egg just because they learned something from another.

Veyron is a hero in the Land of the Gods.

That may be why so many shocking things were happening around Veyron. Then, a soft, gentle, and warm voice that sounded like a mothers whisper rang in Minhyuks ears.

[Being happy despite choosing to sacrifice oneself its a situation that has always been within reach.]

[Your beautiful and gentle mother carried you for ten months. Her flesh growing and stretching, leaving behind hideous marks on her otherwise fair and beautiful body, is a kind of pain and sacrifice.]

[When your mother finally gave birth to you after ten months, she never harbored any resentment or hate towards you.]

[She had a faint smile as she looked upon you.]

[She had made a sacrifice, but she was happy.]

This lesson touched Minhyuks heart deeply. That was right. It was just like the notifications said. It was something that was not that far from him. Being happy despite sacrificing oneself has always been within his reach. This became a life lesson that moved the heart of Minhyuk, who was only twenty-one years old.

I will also strive to become a person that can smile and be happy even if I choose to sacrifice something.

He aimed to be a person just like that, just like a mother who smiled brightly at her child despite the pain and suffering brought about by childbirth.

Another series of notifications rang in Minhyuks ears at that moment.

[You have acquired the Title: The One with a Faint Smile.]

[All of your stats have increased by +1.]

[You have gained 200 REP.]

[You have gained 1,000 CHA.]

Minhyuk did not have the time nor the leisure to check the title. Even the emotional Veyron, looking up at the sky, also returned to his senses. They had to stop the Titans right here and now. Although Veyron had learned about their future and their fate, he intended to avoid sitting and watching by the sidelines. The future was the future, and the present was the present. For the present Veyron, he had to prevent the Titans from advancing further and minimize the damage to the celestial dwellers as much as possible.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang

The celestial dweller mages interrupted the black dwarves from repairing the titans by sending magic attacks non-stop.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Gods Cannons were also continuously gathering divine power and bombarding them, preventing the Titans from advancing. The occasional ones who could run despite receiving the brunt of the Gods Cannons attacks were blocked by magic and the crowd of celestial dweller soldiers as much as possible.

War God Veyron also joined in the fray, jumping out and shooting a spear towards the transparent glass covering the titans cockpit to kill the black dwarves driving them. One of the titans weaknesses was that the enemies could kill the pilot. Of course, the other dwarves could take the opportunity to jump into the cockpit and operate it, but no one was foolish enough to allow a gap that would let them do so.

With the appropriate tactics and strategies, Veyron and the celestial dwellers could push back the Titans.

Baaaaaaaaang!

In the end, some of the Titans exploded, damaging the other Titans in their vicinity and forcing them to explode. Why did a chain of explosions erupt? Titans were weapons that needed fuel before being operated.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Veyrons fists clenched as he watched the Titans explode one after the other.

We can win.

His heart sprouted with hope that they could win while preventing any more damage to his and the celestial dwellers bodies.

Thud Thud, thud, thud, thud

Just then, an unknown sound reverberated on the entire battlefield. Veyrons eyes immediately flew to where the strange and unusual sound was coming from. He caught sight of a towering titan that suddenly appeared above a small cliff quite a distance away from them.

...!

The towering Titan, twice as large as the ordinary titans, jumped down and trampled on the fallen titans, forcing sparks to erupt from their already damaged bodies.

Crackle, crackle, crackle!

The trampled Titans did not take too long to explode from the strain and pressure above them.

Baaaaaaaaang!

The gigantic titan quickly swept away the explosion and stomped on the flames that erupted beneath its feet before stepping forward.

Minhyuk, who was watching the situation on the battlefield with the rest of the army, also looked at the titan that stepped out of the blazing flames.

[Titan of Destruction. Level 813.]

[God of Dungeons Bentley. Level 771.]

Minhyuks face grew ugly. There was no mention of Bentley in the description at all.

In other words, God of Dungeons Bentley had ignored the rules of the existing Argalis Dungeon and broke in by himself. Then, a notification rang in his ears that proved this assumption.

[The God of Dungeons had broken inside the Argalis Dungeon by himself!]

One look and Minhyuk could tell that the god was both a moron and a small-minded individual.

He willingly broke the rules in fear that I might be able to break and clear the Argalis Dungeon.

Booooooooom!

However, the difference in power was too big. Veyron, who was slowly being pushed back, twisted his body and moved to escape the trajectory of the gigantic spear. Then, he jumped on the chains that connected the spear while swinging his sword.

Enemy Slaughter.

Slash, slash Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

Hundreds of sword lights shot out from Veyrons sword, wreaking havoc all over the Titan of Destructions body.

Clang, clang Clang, clang, clang, clang!

Slashes appeared all over the body of the Titan of Destruction, which was made from the parasitic dragons living in the Land of the Gods.

...

God of Dungeons Bentley was shocked. Even the other gods would find it hard to damage this titan. As expected of the hero of the Land of the Gods, no? However, now that Veyron had approached him, he had already won.

Crackleeeee!

Veyron quickly sheathed his sword and held the spear with both hands. At the same time, the tip of his spear started to rotate wildly.

Splitting the Battlefield.

Splitting the Battlefield was Veyrons secret skill. It was also the most potent skill in his arsenal and could deal with an attack with 30,000% additional damage the moment his spear pierced through their bodies.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Veyron stabbed his rotating spear up. He intended to penetrate the Titan of Destruction from the bottom. However, the Titan of Destruction moved a step faster than him.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaang!

A punch landed straight on Veyrons head. Veyron did not even have time to scream. His head instantly curled in on his body, and his vision blurred from the intense pain of the attack. At the same time, the power that was brewing in his spear disappeared.

...

The Titan of Destruction grabbed Veyron by the head.

I will become the Battle God. Bentley gritted his teeth.

He also had immense respect for Veyron, more so than the previous generation of God of Dungeons. However, his greed and selfishness forced him to abandon this respect.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Bentley operated the Titan of Destruction to slap and punch Veyrons face crazily. The force of the attacks made Veyron stumble and stagger, fluttering around like a paper doll. The celestial dwellers tried their best to run through the gaps of the ordinary titans to save Veyron.

Everyone knew that Veyron's fight against the Titan of Destruction was reckless. Veyron had been fighting for days on end. He was exhausted. If he had been in peak condition, he might have been able to destroy the Titan of Destruction. However, just like an exhausted and injured apex predator could become prey to a herd of hyenas, Veyron could also prey on those weaker than him.

Haa Haa

Blood dripped down Veyrons head. There was so much blood that it had already clouded his vision. At that moment, Veyron pulled the switch out of his pocket with trembling hands.

Tremble, tremble

Then, he turned to look at the celestial dwellers that were fighting behind him.

Lord Veyron!

Lord Veyroooooooon!!!

They all cried, running towards Veyron while pulling the same switch out of their pockets.

The man's previous appearance gave Veyron hope that many more celestial dwellers could live and survive this ordeal. However, that hope was quickly dashed. Nevertheless, a smile still lingered on Veyrons face. The crying celestial dwellers running towards Veyron also understood the meaning of Veyrons smile.

No matter what happens here, I know what will happen.

At this moment, Veyron could confidently say that he was pleased. Because of their death, they could protect the Land of the Gods and allow many more celestial dwellers to laugh and live. For the sake of that future, Veyron would willingly push the button of this switch.

Click, click, click, click, click

However, when the Titan of Destruction waved his hand, all of their switches stopped working.

Clack!

No matter how hard they pushed the switch's button, it would not work. Veyron and the celestial dwellers' expressions grew ugly.

The greedy Bentley did not want to see his Titan of Destruction flooded and destroyed. He manipulated the other rough and sturdy hand of the Titan of Destruction towards Veyrons neck. Bentley intended to twist Veyrons head while comforting himself by thinking that this was a way for him to offer a final courtesy to the hero.

Lord Veyron!

No!!!

Veyrons vision turned dark. He had fought until the very end. Thankfully, the future that he was made aware of would not change. However, even if he thought like that, he still could not shake off this unknown sense of helplessness gnawing at his soul.

Veyron felt the cold touch of the Titan of Destructions hands on his neck. As he thought the gradually tightening force on his neck, he finally understood that he was going to die right here and now.

Clank, clank, clank, clank, clank!

At that moment, an unknown sickle flew in. The sickle, connected to a chain, grabbed the Titan of Destruction by the neck and pulled it away from Veyron.

Creaaaaaaaaaak Thuuuuuud!

The Titan of Destruction was forced to let go of Veyron to regain its balance. At that moment, Veyron opened his eyes and saw a man standing before him, blocking him from the Titan of Destruction.

Im not yet done talking. How can you just go and leave me like that?

He was a god called the Food God, a production class god.

I am the Food God. And Minhyuk, with his tall body and strong and wide back protecting Veyron from the threat before them, looked back at Veyron and said, ...I am the Battle God.
