Chapter 727 – Reward Time
The light subsided and I opened my eyes.
“…?”
I’m surprised
Full of deities gathered, oh oh oh! I believe in you! I thought they would say the same thing, but to my surprise, no one was there.
There are no kits.
Did I go to a different place…?
I’ll give you the same wish reward, but is there a reason for that?
“You look perplexed.”
“?”
I turned my head to a voice I had heard before.
Highest level of deity. The god of silence.
He had his hands behind his back and was looking at me with a soft expression.
“Note…?”
“Don’t worry.
Having said that, the silent god snapped his fingers, and a table and refreshments. Tea, etc. Appeared.
The god of silence was sitting at the table and pouring black tea, and warm steam rose from the tea.
“I’ll take it. I’m confident that it will suit my taste.”
“Hmm…
I let out a vague moan and looked around.
Everything is quiet
The god of silence.
True to his name, it felt like everyone around him was enveloped in silence.
I picked a question in my head and asked.
“Why are you here?”
It’s not really a good relationship with me.
“Ah. I thought I wouldn’t be interested in you the most.”
“Yes?”
What the fuck?
“Right now, the other deities want to contact you and make a contract, but that means I have no worries. Let’s go. Have a drink.”
“No. I have no appetite.”
Is the quiet god not showing any signs of regret? And snapped his fingers again.
Tea and tables are gone.
“Contact and contract?”
“You are the greatest hero who defeated the indestructible Shinnok. Anyone who sees the sword that we wielded with all our strength and is powerful enough to take away our causality greatly will have no choice but to be coveted.”
“Huh…”
You buy it high.
The absolute sword is not a fraudulent skill.
“Last time when you invaded the divine realm, I, who fought the most, probably thought I wasn’t particularly greedy and was the right person.”
“Is that so.”
“Actually, I have no intention of offering you a contract. Of course, I have a lot of goodwill towards you.”
The silent god lowered his head.
“Thank you for saving the world. This is my sincerity.”
It’s kind of weird because it sounds like everything else is saying “Gura”.
“Now. Let’s move on to the reward story.”
“Compensation.”
“Yes. By now, everyone who participated in the subjugation should be receiving rewards. And when this task is finished, we will finally move on to the next phase.”
Next phase…?
“The transitional period of the stagnant system. To put it simply, it’s an update. Well, I’ll leave the details for the pleasure of experiencing it myself.”
It’s update
You don’t look like that, but you use game terms naturally.
“First of all, you can get three wishes. If you include the wishes promised by the system, that would be four.”
Three wishes.
I’ve heard that the system grants wishes, but does it give you three more wishes?
“If it’s a wish, what are the limits?”
“Everything our deities can do for us other than the lion resuscitation.”
As the silent god raised his head, all sorts of shapes were drawn in the sky.
First of all, the giant planets are drawn in turn, followed by nature and people.
“If you want your own star, you can make a star, and if you only want people who love you, you can fill your surroundings with those beings.”
“…”
What.
Why would I be told not to speak out and stay somewhere?
“As far as our power permits, those who already have a lover can make you the most precious, and it may take some time, but you can put people all over the world at your feet.”
“…”
“Also. You can also know the hidden secret.”
“A hidden secret?”
The god of silence looked around as if it was a secret story and narrowed the distance.
Burdensome.
“The true demon lord’s way of resurrecting…Or, how to contact a divine beast, or something.”
“Is that so.”
How to say
It felt like he wanted to know more than me.
Perhaps noticing my casual expression, he shrugged and backed off.
“If the information isn’t good enough, it might be empowering.”
“Strength?”
“The word of authority.”
Cheer La Rock.
A hologram made of divine power appeared in front of me.
After looking at it, it was a list of rewards I could receive.
It was a list of tens of thousands, but the letters seemed to be immediately imprinted in my brain, so I could find out all the details just by skimming.
Divinity is very convenient.
I perused the list and immediately admired it.
“…Oh.”
Great things that even a country that has seen so many great things can’t help but admire.
Each one on this list was an instant sense of power, or something that would make the journey ahead much easier.
Or the potion of infinite love.
Or the observations O’Brien had.
Like the item-type perks that Ulysse had in the past.
It was full of all the treasures of this world.
Among them, what was special was the authority of the top-level deities.
The strongest powers comparable to Ornist’s equality.
However, there is nothing that is not Gai.
But. Is it obvious
I don’t know what his authority is, but I know that if the user gets it, it’s a balance collapse.
Equality must be regained.
Without it, I couldn’t even fight the rope.
“Hmm… Then I’ll choose equality…”
Chuck. I stopped talking at the hand that reached out to block my mouth.
“Haha man. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“?”
“Look carefully. Well. The power of the Ornist is obviously great, but isn’t it for a draw after all?”
He said that there are many similar, much better effects, and he suggested that I look at the effects of other powers as well.
Certainly, the authority of the top-level deities was enormous.
The power of a god of faith that increases power as the number of followers increases.
The power of the war god that makes war advantageous as if the world helps in times of war, and so on.
There were many things that were helpful in individual battles as well.
Especially. One power especially stood out.
Silence.
[Static. (Always)
1. Stop time.
2. Stop the opponent’s energy.
3. Stop everything in the designated target.]
It is the power of the silent god in front of you.
“…Hoo.”
Certainly, it is a tremendous power.
I was honestly amazed.
Even if you think about it roughly, it is a very good power that has infinite uses.
Is that not a one-time use, but a permanent one?
“How about it? Doesn’t it appeal to you?”
“Ummm…Well.”
Obviously, the effect is good.
The status of an Allnist was beyond imagination, and it was also used by the Kaiju, and although it may be inferior to that, the authority of this political opponent must also be of a higher level.
Even so.
Something feels uneasy.
“Let’s sleep. Relax and evenly.”
The silent god’s eyes narrowed.
“You have plenty of time.”
***
The scene of silence was very relaxed.
If you’re a thinker, there’s no way you wouldn’t know how great the Power of the Static is.
In particular, what is far superior to other powers is…
“The Power of Static is said to be permanent, but is it possible to use it at any time without cost or restrictions?”
“That’s right. Whether it’s Ryunar or mana, it can be used infinitely without being consumed.”
The silent god with a smile.
The other deities did not know about other rewards, but only the authority was set as a one-time use.
No wonder.
The existence that is still running at the forefront. Yeodere and Kitz.
The two of them were the only ones who performed well enough to gain the power of the highest godhead, but there was no way they wanted to further widen the gap between the two and their users.
But the quiet god was different.
Rather, as if asking to take it, he endured even the causal law and improved and released the strongest power so that it could be used at any time.
It’s all about monitoring and intervening with Dre in the future.
If you receive and use this level of power, a link will form between you and Dre.
Maybe Dre will choose a different power, but it doesn’t matter.
‘You’re also a human whose instinct is greed.’
If, he is a country only for himself. Or, if you want something like paradise, you can plant the personnel of the head office in the process of that huge wish.
If it is the hidden power of the head office, it will be able to keep an eye on the eight days.
Or you may want information.
It is against the law of causation to tell Dre the information he learned, but there is an expedient way to inform the head office of the information.
Whatever wish Dre chooses, as long as the Quiet God is in charge of the reward, he will benefit in some way.
And the Silent God was sure that Dre would make a great wish as long as he was human.
A wish that can come true as long as the power of the gods reaches.
Anybody would want a wish on a grand scale.
Looking at the list, Dre paused for a moment.
And… A very bright smile.
It was the first time he had ever seen him smile that greedily, and the Silence God was a little startled.
Then Dre raised two of his fingers.
“First of all, I want quest information.”
“Hmm. What information do you want? Well. Even if you say this, the system will tell you about the quest information, not our deity.”
“I’d like you to tell me about the two quests I’m currently working on.”
Two quests?
Currently in progress?
That was unexpected.
If Dre made a wish, such as asking for the Kaiju’s weakness or the location of the Abyssal Palace, the system would recite it in his own voice, but if he was listening to the contents of a quest he already had, there was a high probability that even the quiet god would not know.
He said with a smirk and no expression.
“Umm… I don’t recommend it. You can get more amazing information, but you don’t have to…”
“No. I want the information.”
Without the quiet god to say anything, the system realized Dre’s strong will and sent the information.
Dre didn’t even mention what the quest was, and he just said it was his own quest, so the God of Silence couldn’t even guess what it was about.
The information Dre wanted was the name of the lost god he had received from Heston. And the eight kings. It was about the place where Amra, the ecosystem of non-life, is located.
The system responded right away.
[The second information will be released later, so please make a different request.]
“Oh. Is that so?”
Good news.
Dre pondered a bit, then asked for information about Almiraj’s quest, and this time the knowledge entered his mind.
The Book of Prophecy of Heston and Almiraj.
Two pieces of information about him came to Dre’s mind.
He was speechless for a moment.
“Is this… How does it continue?”
‘What and how?’
When I tried to continue a trivial quest, the causal law of the gods slipped out.
Even if it’s a system that informs them, since it’s a wish granted by the gods, they have to pay the price.
Judging from the enormous amount of causality that escaped, it must have been special information.
The quiet god seemed to be going crazy, wondering what the hell he had found out, but he tried hard to hide his desire.
“The remaining wishes… A wish granted by our deities, and a wish granted by the will of the dimension. So, there are two left, one by one.”
“I have a question, what kind of penalty will be imposed on Askatlov in the future?”
The quiet god blinked at the sudden question.
That question… Was a concern even for the deities.
“Actually, we thought it was strange too. Why is he still in the human world?”
“…”
“Originally, according to the contents of the contract, according to the will of the dimension, it should have been torn to pieces and destroyed.”
“Um…”
It was the moment I was about to ask if you had done something.
Dig!!
The silent god stopped talking.
No, it wasn’t just that he stopped, he opened his eyes wide in amazement.
A sphere appeared in front of my eyes.
Dre what is this again? It was a face called, but the silent god knew well what the existence in front of his eyes was.
‘Why…’
Even though he said he would make any wish come true.
Although not the body.
How are you Are you trying to talk to a mere human, not a god?
‘The will of the Ryunar dimension…?!’
A terminal, not a body.
It is nothing more than a text message sent from afar.
However, considering how unconventional that was, I couldn’t help but think that the will of the dimension was treating Dre specially.
[Currently, Askatlov’s treatment has been withheld due to your ‘Oath’ skill.]
“Okay?”
[Is it his eternal seal that you want? Or, are you using him as a limb?]
Does he use his limbs?
Monster king?
“No. I don’t want that. Can’t I just get rid of the penalty?”
[This is a penalty for a monster the size of a creature that stakes its own existence. The penalty can be removed only by consuming the wish sphere of the will of the dimension.]
The silent god let out a laugh.
‘There’s no way that would happen unless I’m crazy.’
I don’t know why they wanted to remove Askatlov’s penalty, but the Silence God assumed that Dre would back down at this point.
But Dre said.
“Ah. Then handle it like that. There’s no problem with this, right?”
[Doesn’t exist. Wishes have been repaired. The oath agreement between you and Askatlov is maintained, but all penalties have been nullified.]
Dig.
The sphere, the terminal of the will of the Ryunar dimension, disappeared.
The silent god was frozen and unable to move.
‘To Askatlov… What’s the value of writing a wish?’
What the hell does this human know?
Come to think of it, I knew information that no one else knew.
Have you ever heard something from Gaia?
Did you figure out something on your own?
Or… Have you heard anything from that particular regressor?
I want to ask.
But it can’t be.
It would be a headache if you were already on your guard and got caught, so Dre asked you to change the reward giver to a different deity.
The quiet god put his curiosity aside and smiled.
“…Come on. I have one wish left.”
“This has already been decided. Inventory.”
“Oh.”
The quiet god smiled in repentance.
Even looking at it objectively, I had no choice but to choose the power of the static that could always use the power of the highest godhead.
King of the country? King of the world?
Such peace may one day collapse, but power endures.
I thought that if I wanted to continue to win this race in the future, I would definitely choose the Power of Static.
I thought Dre’s greedy face I saw earlier wasn’t in vain… And…
Dre said what he wanted in a bright, throbbing tone.
The quiet god who heard that item.
With a bewildered face, he paid for his name.
Silence flowed.
After a while.
There was a godhead approaching the silent god who was sitting in a daze.
She is a goddess in a tennis suit without knowing why. She was the god of war.
“What does Yeodee want?”
It was a questioning tone, but in fact, I was very concerned.
In fact, it was something that all deities would be curious about.
His actions will change the face of this race.
“…I don’t understand.”
“What?”
“…”
The god of war tried to press on in a frustrated mind, but was startled.
The expression of the spirit of the god of silence.
The god of silence. This top-level deity, who calmly coordinated the situation, is also a god who is recognized as the best when it comes to calmness.
How could he be so shocked?
‘What kind of wish did that guy wish for?’
The war goddess felt uneasy.
Yeodereu was also a special existence in many ways.
‘A turning point is coming soon, and that guy… Reina’s attitude is the same, and it’s uneasy to just stay like this.’
I can’t help but see you soon.
Next to the Goddess of War who thought so, the God of Silence muttered blankly what Dre wanted, a voice he could only hear himself.
“10,000 cooking secrets that will surely make you happy with your pet… Ignoring all the huge rewards, why…”
Like that.
The main store and the static god’s plan went in vain.
Coo coo coo
A place quite far from Sers. A plain with almost no grass.
Grasp!
Suddenly, the ground felt like digging, and something bloody crawled out through it.
That was the person the players were looking for after the end of the subjugation.
And who couldn’t find it.
Twig.
He was trembling with a skinny figure that he could not have imagined before.
“Kill…”
The ‘enemies’ that come to mind.
Eight days.
Kitz.
Intangible.
Askatlov.
“Everyone, kill…”
The scum who dared to make the demon king of Jin Purgatory like this.
And kill the main branch too.
Because the point is…
“You don’t look like a horse.”
“…”
Twiga raised his head with a trembling face.
What existed there were… Demon lords.
Four demons.
The demon lords of Purgatory 1 who followed Twiga to Sersu!
“Progle…”
Seeing the demon king of analysis’s cold and twisted sneer, Twiga trembled as if he expected the future a little while later.
“I never thought the demon king of Jin Purgatory… Would show such a pitiful side.”
“Keukkeukkeuk.”
“Kickiki kick.”
Demon King of Beasts, Bills.
And Sonic, the demon king of roar, laughed.
Also. Twiga’s direct subordinate, Dimension, the Demon King of Space.
He looked down at Twiga with very pitiful eyes … And the corners of his mouth twisted as if he couldn’t stand it.
And.
“Hee-hee, ee-hee! Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee!!”
Where did the gentlemanly attitude go? Mean, no. Showing a warlike and evil face like a demon king, he went berserk.
“You look good! Twigaa!!”
“…”
The king of space.
The authority of space is a very powerful authority.
Dimension has been fighting for rank, believing that he can of course become the demon king of Jin Purgatory, and is overwhelmingly defeated by Twiga, who has similar powers.
After that, it was the perception of the world that he was influenced by him and served him.
“I was aiming for a time like this that would come someday!! This time! This is when you become weak!!”
Wow!! The space shuddered on its own, and Twiga’s body moved and was caught in Dimension’s hand.
The demonic energy to the extent that the whole area was shaken was not exposed at all due to the space blocking.
No one will know the current situation here.
“If it wasn’t for you!! I would have taken a place in the Demon Lord of True Purgatory!!”
“…Are you… Targeting… When I’m weak…”
Dimension laughed madly at Twiga’s difficult words.
“Why are you so weak? Kick, tantrum, and ignore it like you normally do?! Ehhhhh?!?!”
Dimension’s claws dug into Twiga’s neck.
After all, their essence is demons.
The weak meat beings.
A presence that attacks if there is a chance.
“Wait. Eating is all together.”
Bills came growling, and the gagged door Sonic snapped. He bit the gag and laughed.
And Frogl lifted up the frames and laughed.
“I wanted to hear it too. The noble scream of the Demon King of Purgatory♡”
“…”
Twiga trembled with a pitiful look.
“Hee hee! Are you scared?! Scared!! Don’t worry!! I won’t kill you right away! Torture, torture, torture, make me beg, then kill me…”
Sigh.
Dimension’s body.
Twisted
1 Demon lords in purgatory immediately spewed out demonic energy.
It was a transcendent reaction beyond speed… But that demonic energy disappeared in an instant.
And Twiga stands in the middle of them all of a sudden, Huu. He let out a relieved breath.
“Thank you. I almost died.”
“…”
“…”
“…”
The three demon kings of 1 purgatory shut their mouths.
Their faces were full of cold sweat.
Twiga’s body was intact.
Rather, it absorbed their demonic energy that was emitted for the attack.
“Thanks to the little buggers who mistakenly thought that if I was weak, they could kill me. I became very active.”
“…Twiga… Sir…”
Now, on the other hand, Dimension, who was almost captured by Twiga, was sweating profusely.
“…It was all, smoke. After a while, I saw an opportunity to save you. I killed these guys… I tried to…Save you…”
“But. I’ve gotten more energetic, but I’m still hungry.”
Twiga smirked, and Dimension begged even more subserviently.
“I-I am. The Dimension… Who has been serving Your Majesty for a long time… Ugh, Ugh…!”
It swirls and twists from the neck of the dimension.
The demon king screamed at the top of his voice in pain beyond his imagination.
“Kuuuaaaaa…!!”
Deed Deuk.
The dimension swirling from his fingertips let out a terrifying scream, and Twiga gnawed at its head.
Burrrr.
Dimension’s body sagged.
The near-infinite regenerative power of the Demon King’s demonic energy was powerless in front of the demonic energy of higher compatibility.
Took.
The Demon Lord of Distortion put down what was Dimension.
A body without a neck does not fall. Instead, demons began to gather in his head.
Go go go go.
Before long, the distorted shape of Magi took over on that face, and what used to be Dimension knelt down to Twiga.
“…”
The remaining three Demon Kings were stiff.
Run away?
No. Impossible.
If you beg for his life, he will die.
At this rate…
“You guys made a contract with a certain human.”
The three demon kings flinched at Twiga’s words.
“Proceed as it is. I’ll spare the one who made the greatest contribution.”
In the silence, Twiga said quietly.
“Answer?”
Chuckle.
The three demon kings knelt down and bowed their heads.
“…Ah. That man’s name was… Alfred.”
He must have been a human close to Yeodere.
Twiga’s mouth parted with pleasure.
