I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 65
#65. Entering the Demon World (1)
Inside the noisy banquet hall of the gods.
âThis is how it ends in the end.â
Damdeok thought as he munched on the warm turkey meat.
âHuh? I guess it doesnât matter since Iâm a mid-level god now! âHahaha!â
As soon as Zeus found out that Damdeok had become a mid-level god, he said that and laughed.
Hades gritted his teeth and glared at him for a while, but in the end he had to calmly return to the underworld.
Zeus just shrugged his shoulders and didnât make any special gestures.
âAnyway, the gods are more childish than humans.â
I didnât know why Hades and the gods were on such bad terms.
Honestly, Iâm not that curious.
âNo matter what, Hades swore on the River Styx not to touch me in the futureâ¦â
That was enough compensation for a month of hard work.
âNow we can go find the next guardian.â
Didnât Jooyul say that Adele Sharonâs mana deficiency could be cured only if she met the third guardian?
It was time to restart the stalled journey.
[Hahaha! Hey buddy! How do you feel about becoming an intermediate god? Are you feeling energized? Huh?]
Thor, who was sitting right next to me, boomed! He slammed down his beer glass and laughed.
He was already extremely drunk and was laughing hard no matter what he said.
âI just lost an arm wrestling match with Zeus and was laughing so hard.â
Is that all?
The other gods were also so excited that they had already played dozens of games with Damdeok.
âThere are so many questionsâ¦â
I think Iâve been asked dozens or even hundreds of times about why Damdeok was so strong despite being a low-level god.
Each time, Ares and Hercules shrugged their shoulders, saying it was thanks to their training.
âI guess thatâs the case. Even if I tell you itâs thanks to talent and skill anyway, itâs obvious you wonât believe it.â
The gods believe that their power is stronger and greater than the talents they gave to humans.
I didnât really want to remind you of that fact.
âThe best thing is to do it alone.â
Thor thrust his face towards Damdeok, who was grinning.
[Hey friend, why are you laughing so hard alone? Now, letâs have a drink!]
âUgh, I understand, so just move to the side for a momentâ¦â
The muscles were so big that they were tight.
I couldnât even pick up the food right in front of me.
[Huh? Itâs narrow?]
Thor asked playfully, grinning.
As he clung to me even more, my breath caught in my throat.
[How is it? How are you? This is the power of Asgard!]
Only after barely pushing away the foolish Thor was I able to sip the drink of the gods that I had wanted to try earlier.
âhmm.â
I felt a sweet and bitter taste in my mouth and my fatigue was quickly recovering.
âItâs the drink of the gods, after all.â
It looks just like a high-end potion sold at Hunterâs Department Store.
Apolloâs self-healing power, which was being subtly activated, and the godsâ drink, nectar, were working together to heal small wounds quickly.
The shoulder that had been punctured by Hades had almost healed before I knew it.
âgood. At this rate, there will be no problem if we leave tomorrow.â
Damdeok took a quick look, brought two or three more glasses of nectar, and took a shot.
âIâm sure it will get better at this level, right?â
In fact, Damdeok had been very anxious ever since he became a mid-level god.
âItâs been a while since a part-time job with decent pay opened upâ¦â
It was a part-time job with a completely different atmosphere than before.
[Hell Furnace Daily Labor Recruitment!]
Employer: Demon God Rukipele
Power: Over 100,000
Job Description: Just do as you are told.
Business hours: From the opening of the furnace to the closing of the furnace on a single day.
Salary: Randomly awarded the power of the demon.
A word from the boss: Angel spies will be placed in the hell crusher as soon as they are discovered and will be ground forever.
âI will grind it in the grinder of hellâ¦â
The content is somehow terrifying.
It seems clear that his employer is also a demon god.
But Damdeok continued to pay attention to this announcement.
âIt gives you the power of a demonâ¦â
Honestly, I really want it.
I searched the godsâ stores just in case, but they didnât sell anything like the power of demons.
âSkills are not enough. âI need power.â
However, the only powers he gained after becoming a mid-level god were a strong body that shielded his body with divine power and a sharp eye that could see through his opponent with the eyes of a sword.
âOf course, itâs better than nothing, butâ¦â
At this rate, itâs difficult to recruit a third guardian as a priest.
âAnyway, they always scare meâ¦â
Ju Ju-yul insisted that he had to go to a part-time job in the demon world in order to gain the powers of a demon.
With my current skills, I wouldnât even be able to meet the third guardian or somethingâ¦
Anyway, I kept nagging the whole way to the banquet hall.
âHey, address rate. Letâs stop. âYou say you really have to do this part-time job?â
Damdeok whispered to Ju Soo-yul, who was sitting across from him.
However, instead of answering, Soo-yul nodded and pointed to the seat next to him.
âYC is awesome! âWhat kind of meat melts in your mouth!â
Adele Sharon was sweeping up all the meat on the table as if she were possessed.
The whole area around the table was a mess.
âOne more plate!â
âWow⦠Itâs already the 10th plateâ¦â
Baekgureum, sitting next to Adele Sharon, clicked his tongue in admiration.
âItâs so loud! Growing adults are supposed to eat a lot! Donât you eat that? Then give it to me.â
âWhen I was growing up, my sister was like, what⦠Ah! Thatâs mine! âI will eat it!â
Baekgureum, who lost his plate of meat in an instant, stood up and started yelling at Adele Sharon.
Damdeok put one hand on his head.
ââ¦Okay kids, letâs go.â
âNoisy!â
âBrother, donât get involved!â
Damdeok, who had been so harshly rejected, twitched the corner of his mouth.
âIf I go back anyway, you will be automatically summoned, right?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
There was no need to waste any more time here.
âI have built enough friendship with the gods at this level.â
Now it was my turn to build my own career.
Whether that place is the demon world or hell.
âI definitely said letâs go. âThere is nothing to say about human rights if it was suddenly sent again.â
When Damdeok put his hand on the system, Jooyul stopped him.
âWhy are you like this too?â
âLook Carefully. âWhat is Adele eating now?â
âhmm?â
Damdeok looked at Adele Sharon carefully.
Her reddened cheeks were swollen as she got drunk.
âThereâs so much in it that I canât tell whatâs what⦠huh?â
Damdeokâs pupils widened slightly.
Adele Sharon took another bite of it.
Wow!
âUm, this wind. âThis saa jingcha maitneungde? (Hmm, this flavor. This apple is really delicious, isnât it?)â
What Adele Sharon was eating was a golden apple.
Damdeokâs eyes sparkled.
It was an item I had seen before.
A panacea that is responsible for the immortality of the gods and is said to cure any illness.
âGolden Appleâ¦!â
* * *
ââ¦Nonsense.â
Adele Sharonâs voice trembled as she woke up from a drunken sleep.
Magical power overflowing from your fingertips.
A power she had never felt in her life was sweeping through her body.
âI can feel the magic⦠so wellâ¦â
Mana deficiency.
Has the incurable disease that so many scholars and doctors in Atlaum given up on suddenly gotten better?
How suddenly?
It was unbelievable to her.
âI kept my promise?â
Damdeok said.
Adele Sharonâs head turned.
Her eyes were already red.
âYou⦠how did youâ¦.â
âWell, itâs a common grace from God. âLetâs leave it at that.â
Adele Sharon silently looked at Damdeok, who shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
Normally, I would have hurled a bunch of curses at him for being so condescending, but today I didnât hate him for some reason.
ââ¦donât say thank you. âBecause this is what you promised.â
âAs you wish.â
Damdeok chuckled.
He also felt very good about the current situation.
âI never thought things would work out this way.â
Adele Sharonâs incurable disease was cured after eating the golden apple served at the banquet hall.
It was an unexpected scenario.
âIâm glad I fixed it before going to the third guardianâ¦â
Itâs not complete yet.
Adele Sharon, who had been feeling the energy of mana for a while, tilted her head as if it were strange.
âBut⦠why canât I collect mana like this?â
Addressul, who was watching, answered on his behalf.
âThe golden apple unclogged the mana vein, but it will take a long time to treat it as much as you want.â
Soo-yul tried to swallow his words.
Damdeok knew what it was.
âIn order for Adele to operate her mana to a normal level, she must visit the third guardian.â
As it stands now, it will take a good 20 years just to build up mana.
âI know what you mean. Although the disease has healed, it is still in the same condition as a newly born baby? Hehehe.â
He didnât look disappointed.
Adele Sharon looked rather excited.
âThen I can now practice mana?â
âokay.â
âYou can also play the role of a great mage in a movie?!â
ââ¦okay.â
Addressul taught Adele Sharon, whom he liked like a child, about how to use mana.
âI am also the next guild leader of the Sangun Guild. âThereâs nothing I donât know.â
Baekgureum nodded and admired.
âYeah, heâs a great guy.â
I admit it.
But sometimes I feel a sense of alienation, as if that guy is not from this world.
âItâs like theyâre from another world⦠or is it true that theyâve lived for a very long time?â
Damdeok watched Adele Sharon and Ju Soo-yul while imagining useless things.
Finally,
âOkay. If you do that, you will be able to handle mana to some extent. Donât be too hasty. As I said before, it will take quite some time to handle it as much as I want.â
âI understand, I understand⦠kekeke, you know that I really love you, right?â
ââ¦sister?â
âOh, isnât that your sister?â
âIâm twenty-seven years oldâ¦â
Adele Sharonâs face turned pale for a moment at Jooyulâs hesitant answer.
âAh no~ I am a younger brother who has a deep heart like an older sister~ This is what I mean! Mmmmm! âOkay then!â
Adele Sharon goes all out and puts her arm around Ju Soo-yulâs shoulder.
Ju Soo-yul slowly removed her arm and gestured to me with her chin.
âKuh what. âSend Adele away quickly?â
âHuh? Brother! Are you going to say something so rude?! Iâm about to become a great wizard. War of the Gods Huh? âWouldnât that come in handy when you come?!â
âokay. Because I plan to write something useful. âIâm working hard on mana training.â
Damdeok pushed the head of Adele Sharon, who was running towards her, and opened the system.
[Disables the power âGodâs Callâ.]
[Cancels the summoning of Second Priest Adele Sharon.]
âYouâre sending me away again! Adele Sharon disappeared after shouting âYou evil business owner!!â.
Damdeok looked back at Jooyul and Baekgureum with a carefree expression.
âNow then, shall we go to our next destination?â
âNext destination? âWhere is it?â
Baekgureum tilted his head and asked.
Damdeok looked at the system in front of him and smiled.
âDemon Realm.â
* * *
ââ¦here?â
âItâs right here.â
ââ¦I donât think itâs here.â
Damdeok, Joo Ju-yul, and Baek Gu-reum looked at the scene in front of them with shocked expressions.
A huge gate that is probably 10 meters long.
It is not a historical site.
That was the gate.
Itâs also a gate where a monster wave is occurring.
âDamn it, ask for support from headquarters!!â
âBo Headquarters! The medium-sized gate suddenly evolved into a large gate! The cause is unknown! âI hope you apply soon!â
Troops and hunters were busy running everywhere.
The three people looked at each other in the chaos.
âNo, bro. Are you going to the devil world? âThis is Incheon.â
âWell, itâs not wrong. âThere is also a saying that it is Incheon, the Demon World.â
ââ¦Itâs not funny at all. sister.â
Baek Goo-reum was quietly crushed by Ju Ju-yulâs bloody eyes.
Damdeok scratched the back of his head.
âThatâs strange. The system wonât let me move. Normally, they would summon you to the part-time job locationâ¦.â
I sent Adele Sharon and immediately pressed the part-time job application button, but all I got was a message saying that time and space were different and that I couldnât move.
âNo, Atlaum and Olympus went well, but why is it that only the Demon World has different time and space?â
I didnât know.
But it canât be helped.
The system did not allow us to move because space and time were different.
âThey just launch a useless navigation systemâ¦â
[200 steps west.]
[Turn left and 300 steps.]
[500 steps south.]
I came all the way here just by listening to this extremely simple navigation system. It was Damdeokâs group.
âWell, where do we go next?â
There are no more words.
This is Incheon, and although itâs a mess because of the gate, arenât you sure itâs not the demon world?
What on earth are you going to do?â¦
âI feel like I was scammed⦠profit! âThis bastard?!â
Sigh!
White Cloud, who was standing next to him, suddenly cut down the charging ground dog monster.
âEh? Arenât you dead?! Even if you do this, you wonât die?!â
Baekgureum began swinging his sword roughly.
As the power of the forgotten gods grew stronger, the level of the gate monsters also rose to become more threatening.
ââ¦Hmm, anyway, the army is being pushed back, so we need to help out.â
Ju Ju-yul also took out a dagger.
âHaha, I canât help it.â
At that time, he was stroking Baekseol, who had just woken up, and was about to go to battle at Damdeokdo Island.
[You have arrived at your destination!]
[The guidance ends!]
Damdeokâs body, which was about to cut down the ground puppy, suddenly froze.
All I could see in front of me was a shimmering gate.
âWhat? Could it beâ¦?â
