#56. Banquet of the Gods (1)
ââ¦Are you serious?â
Ju Soo-yulâs eyes, which had always maintained his composure, opened wide.
âokay. âWhy should I lie?â
Damdeok picked up a piece of chicken and responded.
âIf you meet Hades, you will die.â
âIâm going to avoid dying. âYou canât just avoid it forever.â
âSo youâre going to attack head on? âWhere is the guarantee that you wonât die?â
âThen is there a guarantee that I wonât die if I just avoid it?â
ââ¦.â
In an instant, Damdeok, who had just removed the bones, woke up, licking his appetite.
âNo matter how much foresight you have, you canât know everything.â
Ju Soo-yulâs body flinched at the word âYejiâ.
ââ¦yes.â
âokay. So, I think it would be better to be sure about the Hades issue rather than blindly avoiding it.â
Addressul looked very confused. It seemed like he had a lot to say, but it also seemed like he was holding it in.
Maybe itâs because I donât understand why Iâm doing this.
But this is simpler than you think.
âdonât worry. Do you really think Iâm going to die? âThere is a way to everything.â
âExplain it so I can understand.â âIâm really embarrassed.â
âIt just needs to be a place where Hades canât kill me even if he encounters me.â
Ju Soo-yulâs brow furrowed even more.
location? Where on earth is that?
Her eyes said so.
Damdeok grinned and pointed upward with his finger.
âThe Banquet of the Gods.â
* * *
Iris Main Building Conference Hall 1 Lobby.
Cheonjungak glared at the white clouds in front of him.
âYou shameless bastard. âWhat are you?â
âwhat?â
âunder! what? What?! Hey man. I told you to embarrass me. âDid you tell me to chase after that bastard?!â
Cheonjungak screamed, but Baekgureum pretended not to hear, licking his ears.
âOh, what am I saying? Theyâre always picking on details like that.â
For a moment, a tendon appeared on Cheonjungakâs forehead, but he had to hold back because he did not have the confidence to press down on the guy in front of him with force.
âHey cloud. Where have you been and what have you been doing since that day? I havenât seen or contacted anyone for a week. I thought I could finally see his face, but I still couldnât see him even after the Incheon Airport gate opened. Is it okay for members of the same Iris family to do this? Is it because you donât know how much my father loves you? âThis brother is all worried about youâ¦â
Baek Gu-reum was not listening to Cheon Jung-akâs speech.
He was just looking at the calendar on his phone and grinning.
ââ¦What are you doing? âAre you listening to me?â
âKkkkk, thatâs really true. Itâs only been a week. Wow, itâs amazing. âI think I was there for a good two weeks.â
âwhat? âWhat bullshitâ¦â
Baek Gu-reum, who was grinning, roughly put his cell phone in his pocket and looked back at Cheon Jung-ak.
âAnyway, bro. Donât tell me this or that anymore. The reason I did you a favor at that time was because I was interested, not because I wanted you to like me. Actually, you know that, right?â
Cheonjungakâs fist trembled at Baekgureumâs bold words.
âYou bastard, you reallyâ¦â
Baekgureum smiled and turned around and walked away.
âhey! Where! Didnât you hear that during the meeting just now?! âI told you that for the time being, everyone at the team leader level and above will be deployed to subdue the gate!â
White Cloud waved his hand.
âOh, I donât know~ I have to train with Damdeok.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat what? Damdeokâs tongue?! Are you calling that bastard brother?! âWhy did you say something to that bastard that you didnât say even though youâve been with me for 10 years, even though itâs only been a week?!â
Cheonjungak ran up and roughly grabbed Baekgureum by the shoulder.
When all the people sitting in the lobby looked at him, it was only then that he cleared his throat and gently let go of his shoulders.
Then he muttered quietly, as if ventriloquizing.
âStop talking nonsense and follow me. âBecause my father told me to have you participate in this subjugation operation.â
Baekgureum glared at Cheonjungak with a slightly annoyed expression.
âI donât like it.â
Cheonjungak flinched and took a step back at those murderous eyes.
For a moment, Cheon Jung-akâs face turned red at the fact that he was scared.
Embarrassment soon turned into anger.
In the lobby, Irisâs closest hunters were sitting together.
âThis bastard really said letâs see!!â
When Cheonjungak, whose pride was hurt, raised his hand, Baekgureum sneered.
Cheon Jung-ak, who saw that laughable laugh, could no longer bear it.
As the future successor to Iris, I canât just ignore this kind of tragedy!
There were quite a few eyes watching.
It was time to set an example.
âMy father is also in this building, so he probably wonât be able to kill me.â
Thinking so, Cheon Jung-ak raised his hands even higher and shouted.
âYou bastard! In the current situation, going to that bastard Yu Dam-deok is a clear disobedience of orders! know?!â
Cheonjungakâs hand, which had risen high, quickly went down.
Then
âWow!â
âoh my god!!â
An exclamation erupted from the people sitting.
Cheonjungakâs hand stood still.
Cheers?
Did you demonstrate appropriate behavior as Irisâs successor?
Cheon Jung-akâs gaze returned as he was inwardly pleased.
However, contrary to expectations, people were not looking at them.
They were looking at the large monitor hanging in the center of the lobby.
ââ¦what? âWhat are you looking atâ¦â
Cheon Jung-akâs eyes narrowed.
What was shown on the monitor was the scene where the gate suppression was in full swing.
The monsters that came out of the gate certainly looked incomparably more powerful than before.
And a man sweeping that battlefield.
As his face slowly closed up, Cheon Jung-ak frowned.
âThat bastard againâ¦.â
The sight of Damdeok wearing lion armor and swinging a sword, with black flames spewing out every time he swung his sword, was enough to make people cheer.
âWow, this is no joke.â
âWhat kind of skill is that? Black flames wrapped around a sword! âItâs absolutely killing me?!â
âThatâs right, talented people are different no matter what.â
In response to the continued praise from the people, Cheon Jung-ak said, âQuaang!â to the statue standing next to him. I kicked it.
âWhat is a talent bug? âThat guy was untalented not long ago!!â
Everyone looked at Cheon Jung-ak with an absurd expression as they shouted in panic.
As he huffed and couldnât shake off his anger, a white cloud came up behind him and whispered.
âDid you see it? I have a lot more to learn from you than my older brother. âGood luck then.â
Baekgureum patted my shoulder and turned around.
In the end, Cheon Jung-ak burst out screaming and ran towards him, and everyone in the lobby rushed out and stopped Cheon Jung-ak.
Baekgureum grinned and waved his hand at Cheonjungak, who was being dragged backwards.
* * *
âThank you for your effort!â
âLetâs go take a look!â
After bowing lightly to the employees who bowed at a 90-degree angle, Damdeok and Jooyul exited the police line.
âIn the past, we only sent out garrison troops, but now the number of people to subdue the gate has increased significantly.â
Damdeok clicked his tongue as he looked at the military vehicles and gate management officials lined up around him.
It seems like about 80 people gathered at one small gate.
Including small support staff, the number of people was well over 100.
Of course, the only ones who could enter the gate were Damdeok and Jusoyul, so the rest of the teamâs job was to deal with the monsters from outside.
Ju Soo-yul looked around indifferently and nodded at Damdeokâs words.
âThey said they wouldnât clear the gate, but this is already the third time today, right?â
Damdeok shrugged his shoulders.
âItâs not that I donât do it, itâs that I donât want to do it because Iâm tied to the Iris Guild. Thatâs right. âIf you conquer the gate, you can train, protect people, and increase your physical strength as a bonus, so why not do it?â
As Damdeok said that, a message of reaching 90,000 spiritual strength appeared before his eyes.
There was definitely a taste of attracting peopleâs attention by running around wearing black flames inside the gate.
âMy spiritual strength is already 90,000. â100,000 is just around the corner.â
Damdeok smiled and spoke proudly, but Ju Soo-yul walked only looking ahead.
âThere are 100,000 more left until the intermediate level.â
I suddenly feel drained.
No, if I give you some praise, whatâs the point?
Anyway, even if you stab this guy, not a single drop of blood will come out.
I can barely see 100,000 before my eyes, but I have to double it to 200,000 to become a mid-level god.
Once again, Ju Soo-yul, who had reached mid-level god, looked like a monster.
âI guess the gate boss just now was a complete piece of gum to you, right?â
âIt was gum for you too.â
âWhy are you complimenting me?â
âI was telling the truth.â
Anyway, tsundere. Heâs always like this.
âBut itâs beyond that gate.â
At Damdeokâs words, Jooyul finally turned his head and looked at Damdeok.
âWhy beyond the gate?â
âWhy? âNo matter which gate you enter, you are always surrounded by a transparent membrane, and you wonder what lies beyond.â
When you approach this place, a message will appear telling you that you cannot approach due to lack of spiritual power.
It was the same even now that it reached 90,000.
âWell, of course there is no problem in destroying the gate, but I am curious. âCanât you go too?â
In fact, this was the question that Damdeok asked Ju Ju-yul every time he entered the gate.
But each time she didnât answer.
âYou donât want to do it this time?â
As I swallowed my saliva, Jooyul answered.
âNo, you can go.â
âwhat?â
âBut Iâm not going.â
Damdeok was speechless for a moment due to his tone being so firm.
âwhy? No, but why didnât you tell me? âNo matter how many times I asked, you didnât answer.â
âI didnât hear you.â
âhey! does not make sense!â
At Damdeokâs shout, Ju Ju-yul closed his mouth again.
When Damdeok looked at him with a puzzled expression, Ju Sooyul quietly opened his mouth.
âThere is no need to be impatient. Because this is where you too will go someday. There is no need to go at this point. Thereâs no need to wonder. âI told you this because I thought I would keep asking if you didnât answer like this, so I hope you will stop talking about this topic now.â
He was so decisive that I was speechless.
But I couldnât continue talking like that.
In the end, Damdeok had to turn his head.
âokay. âMaybe someday Iâll find out what lies beyond.â
You will definitely be able to see with your own eyes what the structure is like.
âokay. âThis comes first now.â
Before I knew it, I had come up to a nearby mountain with few people.
Damdeok lightly relaxed his limbs and opened the system window.
âI have reached 90,000 in stamina and am in excellent condition. âToday is perfect, right?â
âokay.â
Damdeok smiled and looked at the system window in front of him.
