Chapter 633
Leveling with the Gods
[Level Up with God Episode 8]
* * *
It was a warm, sunny day.
Player Kim Cheol-soo.
He lived his life being misunderstood every time.
âItâs Kim Yu-won!â
âreally?â
There was an uproar when Kim Yu-won appeared on the 8th floor.
but.
âYou got the wrong person, you idiots!â
Naturally, Cheolsu kept his head down and was busy making his way through the crowd.
Cheolsu Kim.
He was subjected to numerous misunderstandings simply because he resembled Kim Yu-won more than anyone else.
Black hair, cool features, and handsome features.
He looked exactly like Kim Yu-won, as if he were a doppelganger monster.
âha-.â
Sighing deeply, he took out the kit and looked at it.
[Holding points: 102]
Balance starting to show its bottom.
It was getting to the point where I had to worry about food if I didnât hurry up and get to the next floor.
âI hope the next test will go well.â
I was tired of being mistaken for Kim Yu-won every time and somehow avoiding the situation.
Cheolsu wanted to quickly become a decent player.
Someday I will become a ranker.
So that the day will come when we will be called ranker Kim Cheol-soo instead of Kim Yu-won.
âI have to earn points.â
point.
He was not successful as a player and had no proper way to earn it, which served as the towerâs currency.
There are two ways to earn points as a player.
Climb up and get rewards, or get noticed by the guild and receive support.
If not, you have no choice but to sit on the street.
Wow-.
As Cheolsu entered the alley leading to the dormitory, he strengthened his hand holding the kit and made a promise once again.
âI definitely have to do it for the next examâ¦.â
âAaaah!â
At that time, a familiar scream was heard.
It was not something I had heard before once or twice.
Cheolsu turned his head further into the alley and his eyes widened.
âJiwon?â
It was the scream of his younger brother Kim Ji-won. Cheolsu
ran quickly in the direction from where the sound came and saw his younger brother with shoulder-length short hair. Kim Ji-
won. It was Cheolsu
âs younger brother who had entered the tower together and was climbing the tower together.
âCheolsu .â âWhere did he go?â
âThe bitch doesnât answer and just screams.â
âhey!â
Cheolsuâs voice echoed through the alley,
âWhat are you guys doing!â
As he shouted, the players surrounding Jiwon turned towards Cheolsu.
When they came face to face with him, some of them flinched.
âOh, Cheolsu is here.â
âOh, no matter how many times I see that guy waiting on the counter, I canât get used to it.â
These were familiar faces.
Players who had been lending points to Cheolsu for several months.
âHey, itâs already been three days since I had to repay the interest.â
âThe interest exceeds the principal? Is there any way to repay it?â
âIs it okay, sir, if I just scream?â
âYou have any remaining points, right? All right, give them to me first. I canât wait any longer.â
A lending company that lends money to players who donât have test fees and charges expensive interest. It
was a mistake to go into it thinking it would be okay just once.
They were more persistent than I thought and used the points they borrowed from the 5th floor to get to the 8th floor. They even followed me.
âEven if I tried to repay the principal, they stopped me from repaying it, so what should I do?â
There were two ways to escape from the hands of those guys.
Either find a guild that would protect you, or become a high-level player with the power to protect yourself.
As long as you became a ranker, you wouldnât have to suffer from those scoundrels anymore .
.
âDamn. If I even give this away, then Iâll reallyâ¦â
The car was shaking its head like that.
âHey, Kim Yu-won! You got here so quickly?â
A cheerful voice that did not suit the situation joined in.
Shiny
blonde
hair that seemed to shine on its own.
Attention was focused on the dazzling appearance that overwhelmed the atmosphere.
Anyone interested in rankings would recognize this person. .
âHa Hargan?â
Although he was overshadowed by Kim Yu-won, he was also a player who became a ranked player at an incredible rate.
Thanks to his talent and ambition, he was also the one who emerged as the most likely successor to Olympus in the future.
Originally, he was a great being who could not be found in this lower level⦠.Chuck-
.
âWhat are the ashes? Do you know them?â
Then he put his arm around Cheolsuâs shoulder.
âJi Ji⦠Is this true?â
âYou idiot. You wouldnât know it if you looked at it, right? Itâs Hargan.â
âI heard you two were classmates in the tutorialâ¦â
Cheolsuâs expression changed as he saw the gangsters secretly watching him.
I donât know what the situation was, but now was my chance.
âWhat were you talking about just a moment ago?â
âHi!â
âThatâ¦â
âThere must be a misunderstandingâ¦â
The expressions of the gangsters turned white as they met Cheolsuâs eyes.
I was a little scared when I thought it was Kim Cheol-soo, but when I thought it was really Kim Yu-won, I felt like my spine was going numb.
âDid you borrow money?â
âyes?â
Jiwon was surprised at Cheolsuâs question and answered.
âYes⦠But itâs been a long time since I paid off the entire principal, and I stillâ¦â
âIs it true?â
Less tremblingâ¦
I could see the bodies of those guys who were so energetic trembling with each look in their eyes and every word they said.
The men surrounding Ji-won couldnât answer and mumbled.
âThatâsâ¦.â
âDonât even think about lying. âIt canât work.â
It wasnât wrong.
Kim Yu-wonâs skill âHwa-an Geum-jeongâ, known to the public, had the power to understand the truth and lies of the opponent.
If the one here right now is really Kim Yu-won.
The moment you tell a lie, you will be able to tell.
âIâll burn it right down! So please just spare your lifeâ¦â
âHere it is!â
Burning.
The contract was burning quickly before his eyes.
Cheolsu nodded lightly, hiding his heart pounding.
âGo away.â
One word I blurted out indifferently:
âHey!â
âIâm sorry!â
âLetâs go, letâs go!â
The loan sharks who were surrounding Ji-won quickly left the place.
They had been spouting harsh words toward Kim Yu-won just a moment ago, so they were afraid that there might be trouble.
âWhat are you doing, Jaes?â
Of course, Hargan, who did not know the situation, was just confused.
Tilting his head, Hargan soon tapped Cheolsuâs shoulder as if he was not interested.
â
Letâs go get something to eat too.â
Just like that,
our casual companionship began.
* * *
Just like that, Hargan passed by.
Yuwon, who arrived at the meeting place about five minutes later, crossed his arms and muttered,
âI said Iâd be there first.â
Thinking that he must have gone somewhere for a while, Yuwon started waiting for Hargan,
not even noticing that he had already started eating.
* * *
âYou really hate crowded places.â
Hargan rented an entire restaurant.
He picked up a piece of meat with a fork and asked,
âWhy? Was it comfortable after being forgotten for a few years?â
âWellâ¦â
What should I say?
Cheolsu, who thought for a moment, nodded.
âIt did.â
âokay? but. It might be convenient. These days, I tooâ¦â
Harganâs words went out to one ear.
All kinds of thoughts were running through his mind.
âIs it okay to be like this?â
They acted to avoid the situation.
Thanks to that, they were able to escape from the gangsters who were harassing them by pledging private loans, and they thought things were going well.
But now,
sitting across from Hargan, cutting meat, it was like avoiding a wolf. It was like meeting a tiger while trying to do it.
âWhat if Iâm caught impersonating Kim Yoo-won? Isnât that a serious crime? If youâre the highest ranking high ranker and youâre impersonating Kim Yu-won, the punishment will probably beâ¦.â While organizing his
complicated thoughts, he calmly sliced the meat and put it in his mouth. I didnât stop putting it in.
I must not be caught.
If I get caught here, I will be roasted immediately by Harganâs electric shock.
Gulpâ¦
I passed the soft meat down my throat with dry saliva.
I made up my mind.
âLetâs postpone it. Until the end.â
Ugh.
At that time, Harganâs player kit rang.
Cheolsuâs body trembled.
He asked without showing it.
âWho are you?â
âOh, there you are, buddy. Just a moment.â
Hargan stopped eating and exchanged text messages with the kit.
After concentrating on the kit for a while, Hargan got to the point.
âYou said you were giving me a wedding invitation? Take that out quickly first.â
Boom.
The sound of thunder rang in Cheolsuâs head.
Come to think of it, Kim Yu-won and Pandoraâs wedding ceremony was happening some time later.
Apparently, todayâs appointment was because of that.
âI forgot.â
âBlinking? You?â
No one else but Kim Yu-won?
That was the reaction.
Even when I thought about it, it was definitely an insincere excuse.
But,
âWell, that could be true.â
Hargan was easier than expected.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOh, Uncle Orpheus will be here in a little while. Song canât be left out at a wedding ceremony.â
Orpheus was an Olympian ranker known for his outstanding performance.
Apparently, this was a place to discuss various matters for the wedding ceremony in addition to wedding invitations. This is a
big deal.
Things are getting bigger.
An alarm sounded in Cheolsuâs head.
* * *
âHuh huh huhâ
âSsang⦠huh. Whatâs going on?â
âWhoa⦠Why is Kim Yu-won really there?â
The men who had run away from Kim Yu-won and Hargan entered a distant alley and were out of breath. They ran
so fast that one of them fell to the ground.
âFuck⦠If youâre a high ranker, is it okay to just interfere with other peopleâs business?â
âHey, be quiet. Do they have good ears?â
âHmph-.â
âOh, you should have sucked that brat a little more.â
Kim Cheol- soo.
A poor player who had already failed the test several times.
He was the perfect guy to score points in the long run.
âLetâs assume that the guy with Hargan is really Kim Yu-won, then where is Cheol-su?â
âThe contract was torn up?â
âWhat do you know? Does that bastard know that?â
That was correct.
There is no way for Kim Cheol-soo to know that the contract is gone anyway. The
only ones who really know it are Kim Yu-won and Hargan.
Jiing-.
The kit rang and the news was delivered.
âHey, Cheol-su has been found.â
News from the menâs colleagues.
âReally?â
âUh. They say weâre alone in the alley we were in earlier.â
âWhy, near there? Mr. Ha.â
I donât know what he was doing there alone, but seeing as he wasnât with Hargan, it was clearly Kim Cheol-su.
âShall we go right now?â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
The surroundings became quiet at the manâs question.
No one was willing to answer.
If Kim Yu-won and Hargan are still around, there might really be a division this time.
âShall we wait a little bit?â
âThen.â
âThatâs right. Heâs in the palm of our hands anyway, right?â
âLetâs leave in just ten minutes.â
In the end, they chose to move to avoid Kim Yu-won.
of course.
To that extent, the resentment towards Cheolsu, who had done nothing wrong, grew inside him.
âCheolsu, you bastardâ¦â
Grinding
his teeth,
a man muttered to Cheolsu, who was standing alone in one corner of the alley.
âWeâll see.â
Without even knowing who they are grinding their teeth against.
They were growing angry towards a being who should not have dared to show their teeth like that.
