Chapter 192 – Episode 192 – [Tower] Aphrodite and Freya, Meeting of Two Goddesses
* Episode 192 – [Tower] Aphrodite and Freya, meeting of two goddesses
“I know roughly what questions will be asked. Are you asking why I gave Seongyeon such skills?”
You already knew.
I drank the tea cup she held out.
It’s my favorite taste.
“The reason is nothing special. I was checking the maintenance of the tower and looking through each layer, and luckily I heard her scream. So I saved her and gave her a skill.”
I asked with my eyes why I put such conditions on a girl who was already going crazy because of me.
“A demerit that will regress infinitely if I don’t finish paying tribute to you?”
Then Freya smiled, brushing her white hair behind her without any sign of displeasure.
“I’m not a free volunteer. I gave you my life, and that’s a lot of strength, so wouldn’t you be upset if I didn’t get anything in return?”
-Because I’m not a top conqueror.
At that time, Seongyeon was just a corpse, and I was nothing more than a corpse.
She gave EX-level skills to save those guys, so she deserved it in return.
If you look at it that way, it’s not my number to say this.
“Are you saying you didn’t have any other feelings for Seongyeon?”
“After that, I tried to attack my tower, so it’s not like I don’t have any intention at all.”
“Then what?”
“She doesn’t have hard feelings like some idiot. She has suffered enough to regret her sins. She knows that she is suffering inside.”
So, she took it easy and said that she had no ill feelings toward Seongyeon.
She was an important god and tower lord who gave me the ability to return, but contrary to my imagination, she was a very tolerant person.
Bang!
“Can’t you be quiet!?”
Then Aphrodite, who was hardly tolerant, screamed.
The only motherhood that exists is those big breasts.
She is upset because she doesn’t like shielding Seongyeon.
“It’s true. Ms. Seong-yeon has worked hard. Wouldn’t it be better to forgive her because she is like this?”
“What’s the point of rolling so hard! He hasn’t reflected yet! You heard what he said last time when he had a fight with the blonde butler! I was so embarrassed by how shameless he was!?”
… Blonde butler.
This is Ceres.
Let’s talk about a time when two people had a cat fight and forced a contract.
“It was the butler who started the fight first. Since he was already scratching a child who was on the verge of going crazy, it was natural for him to come out shamelessly.”
“Is it obvious? You are the perpetrator and the starting point of everything!?”
“That’s the starting point. So her butler knew it implicitly. If Song Seong-yeon hadn’t been there, she would never have met him. Nevertheless, calling you and pushing her was just an act of betrayal by her butler.”〈 Br〉
“Then what about the tower? He bypassed my tower twice! He yelled at me the first time and did it even though I gave him two chances!”
“That’s a misunderstanding too? Aren’t the kids below having a hard time finding the real culprit?”
“No matter how much I think about it, there is no culprit other than him! I took the same detour as last time, but who else could do something like that other than him!?”
“He struggles and fights to figure it out. Is it really that difficult to look at it with tolerance when time is overflowing with us?”
It’s unexpected.
Freya took Seongyeon’s side quite seriously.
That’s why Aphrodite turned her head, pointing out something she didn’t like.
“That guy’s personality is so good that it’s a shame! You know that those from the lower world climb up when you say hello!”
“The problem is that you are so angry. Why don’t you understand that we need to be tolerant of the children of the underworld so that they will also support us?”
The two people stopped talking right there.
“”…””
They glanced at each other and then sighed at the same time.
They seemed to be stubbornly looking at each other, wondering how many times they had talked about this topic.
“What are you going to do now?”
“… What should I do?”
“You tried to set the 50th floor to the worst level of difficulty in mankind, but failed. That was because of your failure, not because of their detours or laziness. Then, I think it is right to pay them fair compensation and open the gate.”〈 Br〉
“But the 50th floor! That’s the perfect level for punishing them, and we made it so easy to beat them! In fact, it’s not like we beat it with a bug!?”
“That’s your mistake. It’s not something that the humans of the underworld should have to deal with. Wouldn’t it be cruel to blame the challenger’s fault for their easy awakening?”
“Keuuuuu~!?’
That’s right, it’s Freya.
I saw this goddess for the first time today, and I think she will become a fan.
“Fortunately, it’s Song Seong-yeon you hate, not Hero. Then, just listen to my story.”
“Even if it’s a story, what kind of story is it?”
“From what I see, the underworld kids are talking about a lot of things in your tower. How about stories related to that?”
“Ah, the one where the kids downstairs are trying to form a community by joining hands with humans?”
Did you know?
That’s right, I’ll give you the top. There’s no way you don’t know in what direction the top is being developed.
“You’re probably not disturbing me, right?”
Once asked, she immediately spread her palms and snorted with excitement.
“Not at all? Wouldn’t it be welcome if you volunteered to help my tower?”
It was an unexpected answer.
“How come?”
“Why are you looking surprised? Is it because you think the reason we are going around the other world, putting up towers and invading?”
“…”
“Do you think it’s for fun?”
“A little?”
“That’s not completely wrong either. But there is a different purpose.”
“What is it?”
“The reasons for each tower are different, but I invaded to obtain energy for my children to survive. If you look at it from a different perspective, it is ‘barely that much of a reason.’ If everyone gets their fill of energy with your cooperation, my position as the general manager will be “It’s something that is welcomed, so why are you interfering with it?”
It was really unexpected.
“I thought I’d at least make a fuss because it wasn’t fun.”
“That’s a cheeky thing to say. Now, I can see how I look from your perspective.”
“… Did you think kind words would be spoken to your girlfriend, or even to the goddess who did such a thing?”
“Please keep your mouth shut~!”
He kicked Freya’s shin under the tea table and smiled slightly at me.
Even though I said it was rude, I wasn’t particularly angry.
“Well, it looks like she’s still trying hard. Although she’s not alone, she’s achieved the status of a hero who almost reached the 50th floor on her own.”
“Can I take this to mean that I have become more manly?”
“No problem. I rarely praise men, so just be happy.”
Even if I said something like that using Aphrodite’s name, she wasn’t particularly happy.
Just by looking at that name, you have the image of spreading your crotch whenever you see a handsome man or hero.
“… I know what you’re thinking. Even though it looks like this, this side maintains its integrity, right? It’s difficult to compare that side to the bitch of Shinhwa?”
“Really?”
“It’s nothing. I’m so picky when it comes to men. It’s so bitter when people think of me as such a slutty woman.”
Oh hoho, instead of the smiling Aphrodite, Freyja stabbed me in the side.
“Be careful. Lately, I haven’t had a guy I like, so I’ve been nervous. The reason he’s arguing with Song Seong-yeon might be because he’s jealous of your relationship.”
“You really get on people’s nerves with every single word you say~!?”
“It’s not entirely wrong, but she has the grandiose title of top owner, but in reality, she’s a poor woman who’s been looking for a boyfriend for a thousand years. Please look at it that way.”
“Hey!!”
He kicked the shin again, but this time Freya avoided the leg.
These goddesses have a good relationship just by looking at them.
They didn’t seem to mix like water and oil, but they floated well.
“From my perspective, it’s as if my girlfriend was on probation, so I have nothing to say.”
“Huh, why all of a sudden? Don’t you need a reward?”
“There’s no need to get on top of the owner’s nerves. If you end up getting upset over this, the ones who will be in trouble are Seongyeon and I.”
“Huh, I look like a bitch who will end up ruining things like this!?”
“…”
“… Hey.”
“Oh really. Don’t look at me like that. I know this is unreasonable even if I think about it.”
She was not a goddess whose words were difficult to understand in that she knew her own personality.
As I said, it is rude to completely identify with Aphrodite from Greek mythology.
“Anyway, if you want a reward, I’ll give it to you, so let’s decide that later. So what do we do now? Like you said, is there anything you want to tell me?”
The owner of the tower took the stance that it did not matter if her tower merged with the earth.
That information alone was good news and news that Ian and others would be happy about.
Well, what I’m going to say next is obvious.
“There’s that too. Since it’s been a while, I’d like to talk to Seongyeon.”
“Huh, why bother bringing up her story in front of me~?”
“I know I’ll be hated, but I have to do what I have to do. You know that’s why I went up to the 50th floor.”
“You’re really disgusting too. Me and this guy said he was a terrible guy, but as a boyfriend, you’re even worse than your girlfriend.”
I was truly puzzled.
“It’s harsh. Compared to Seongyeon’s regression, I haven’t done anything.”
Then ha! Laughed.
“Don’t you know how many souls are attached to your body? No matter how you look at it, it’s not a job for one person to handle, and you don’t even know that you’re holding them all. What a pitiful man.”
“Is that so?”
“That… I also sympathize. That’s why I want to quickly free Seongyeon and free you from her karma.”
Not only Aphrodite but also Freya looked at me with pity.
What is that look and tone of voice?
It is like looking at a pig at a pig farm that is about to be slaughtered.
Am I going to fall behind soon?
“It’s okay. What’s the point of telling a human like this? Anyway, you are the raider. I am the tower owner. I have a duty to listen to your story.”
Still, he showed his displeasure and asked.
“It’s okay to talk about her, but you wouldn’t dare ask her to forgive you, right?”
“Can’t it?”
“Like Freya said, I know that there was a detour in this episode, and that there was a separate real culprit. I know that. But that’s just your speculation, and it’s none of our business, right? From my perspective, there’s no one other than your damn girlfriend who would bypass my tower like that. “No.”
Because there is no way to obtain that information other than regression.
So, I also took a step back and asked for a favor.
“You just need to say one thing. If we find the culprit and hand him over, this whole damn thing will end. Just confirm that.”
“Huh. You’re saying you’re confident you’ll find it?”
“Actually, we’re pretty close to the answer. I just need to hear the answer.”
“…”
He didn’t agree with what I said right away, but he wasn’t in the mood to reject it.
There is no reason to refuse if they say they will bring the real culprit to you.
“Can’t it?”
“That’s disgusting. I knew you would end up talking about her, but I called her, so it’s probably my fault too.”
Fortunately, he agreed and said, ‘I will understand for now.’
“Did you give OK?”
“That’s enough of the story. Let’s talk more about the ground. Since it’s been a long time coming, let’s listen and figure it out.”
Then, I asked a driver who appeared from nowhere to prepare a new dessert.
The goddesses seemed relaxed, as if they had less to do than expected.
I would have enjoyed it comfortably if it weren’t for the sex fight I just had, but it’s a shame.
