chapter 109
109. Emergency Meeting (2)
“I’d like to hear from you all.”
Malphas, a god in the shape of a giant crow, <the god of vicious fortifications>, moved his huge body and sat down on a chair.
There were three gods sitting on three sides of Malpas.
In front of Malpas sat a woman with blonde hair.
“I was very surprised, because I didn’t expect to see Barbatos get hit like that… and I didn’t even know if he would die.”
Soliana, the blonde-haired goddess, laughed.
“But. Still, I couldn’t believe it. Barbatos is a strong guy.”
Soliana continued.
“What do you two think?”
The gods on both sides gave their own reactions.
Omerta, the <god of flame and grief> with flame-like hair waving, slowly opened his mouth.
“Can I ask your thoughts? If there is a guy like that, killing him is enough. There is no need to keep alive those who dare to go against the name of God.”
Immediately after Omerta finished speaking, a short, almost white woman next to her spoke.
<God of Frost and Trials> Hene spoke with her red eyes shining softly.
“That’s right. Is there a need to keep them alive? From the beginning, we decided to liquidate half of the continents of Middle-earth. Before the end of next year.”
The continent of Middle-earth.
Erasing not only the continent of Geherchen, the continent where the Astes Empire, where Yuma is located, is located, but also half of the continent in Middle-earth. That is what the gods of Yuma and the Outer Gods world recognize as the <Eight Evil Gods>. All the gods and principals of the divine world were called the “Eight Main Gods.”
“In order to completely destroy the barrier laid out by the foreign world b*stards, we need to secure that level of birth power.”
Ragnarok.
A war between gods and gods. The leaders of the war who wanted the war to break out.
Those were the <Eight Gods>.
A quarter of the gods who did not agree with it were from the <foreign god world>, which occupied half of the god world. And in the world of foreign gods, a powerful barrier was being developed that even gods of equal rank could never cross.
Even though the Eight Evil Gods and all the gods existing below them attacked, the barrier did not collapse.
The Eight Evil Gods and their subordinate gods could only make predictions. It is said that at least one god on the outside world is maintaining the barrier, risking his or her very existence.
From the perspective of the Eight Evil Gods, the existence of the foreign world within the barrier could not help but be bothersome.
Those who fled from the battlefield of the gods and went into hiding. It was too much to just dismiss it that way, as that being was none other than God.
They could have taken countermeasures and counterattacked, but they were not creatures that could be crouched down.
The biggest reason why Malpas gathered the <Eight Lords> here now. This is because there was one issue that had no choice but to assume that possibility in this situation.
Birth power increases when leading the beings of Middle-earth, but it also increases when destroying the beings of Middle-earth.
This is because half of the destruction will eventually be filled with creation someday.
Malpas eventually brought up the issue.
“This is a human who killed as many as two of the eight main gods. It may be something that one of those guys in the foreign world used their hands to create.”
Hearing Malpas’ words, Henne narrowed her red eyes in her white face and opened her mouth.
“That’s right. Unless they helped us, it’s impossible for humans to have the power to defeat our gods… Moreover, what he killed this time wasn’t the stone of the eight main gods like Incrinyu. The fighting god Barbatos was stronger than us here. Because this is it.”
Fighting God Barbatos.
The influence that Barbatos had on the God World was so powerful that Yuma, the person who killed Barbatos, could not even imagine.
The one who fought at the forefront of the eight gods who started the war.
Excluding the two gods who are not here right now, there is no god who can compare in terms of military power on a one-on-one basis.
The god of gods died to humans.
It was no coincidence. That was a fact that all four gods present could not accept. This is because I saw it in real time through the vision of the ravens that Malphas had spread throughout Middle-earth.
A human named Yuma overpowers the fighting god Barbatos.
The scene where the overwhelming pressure eventually leads to extinction.
Omerta, the god of flames with flames flying over his head, clicked his tongue.
It’s God. It makes no sense for God to be afraid of humans. Let alone fear, it is un-God to even have feelings of discomfort.
However, I clearly did not like myself for perceiving that person, ‘Yuma’, as an irritating stone.
“I have no choice but to admit that he is strong. It is clear that he killed Barbatos… But, he is still a human. Even if the foreign world b*stards try to help him in some way, he is a person who has no chance of awakening to godhood… “There is not the slightest possibility that he could come directly to this God Realm and kill us.”
Omerta continued to recite his organized thoughts.
“If the b*stard is too strong to handle, all you have to do is turn everything on the continent he is stepping on to ashes. If you let him know that everyone will die because of his presence, his spirit will wear out. He may fall into madness and go crazy. ego.”
Omerta thus spoke to the three gods about his first hard line against Yuma.
“And no matter how much you think about it, just because Barbatos is dead…there’s no way we’ll be killed by that b*stard. If all four of us here right now descend on Middle Earth and attack, do you think that human will be able to withstand it? He’ll die instantly.”
The gods slowly nodded at Omerta’s words.
Even if Barbatos is dead, if the four gods here join forces, there is no way they will be able to kill Yuma.
There was not a single god who questioned that possibility.
One, the gods were calm. Because there was a lot of stuff built up. Also, because I knew a lot. There was no god who was sure of victory, but who told him to come down right now and kill that guy.
Discomfort.
The gods were reluctant to take the initiative because of their sense of discomfort towards a type of human they had never seen before.
Of course, the biggest reason is that the person who died at the hands of Yuma was none other than the fighting god Barbatos.
Except for the two who are not here right now, Tushin has no way of defeating him in a one-on-one battle.
The blonde goddess Soliana recalled two gods in her head.
The two gods were clearly stronger than Barbatos when it comes to overall ability rather than simple force.
‘… If they come forward, they will definitely be able to kill even the person who killed Barbatos.’
But that didn’t mean I could lend my strength to the two.
This is because, like the three people around him, he was filled with the desire to have the power to surpass them.
Also, the fact that they themselves knew their greatness and did not even attend meetings like they do now made me feel bad.
That was also the reason why the other gods, not just Bertios, thought of the two who were not here right now, but did not say it out loud.
Malphas, the giant crow-shaped god, slowly opened his mouth.
“The priority is to send the gods under each of us to the continent to monitor their movements. And sooner or later, we will burn down half of Middle-earth.”
The remaining three gods nodded to Malphas’ words.
Gods under your command. In other words, the decision was made to send down the second-tier gods.
In the hierarchy of gods, the third level is the lowest. However, just because they were low, the first-tier gods were not beings that could give orders.
The hierarchy is just low. Because God was God.
It was bound to take quite some time to send down the gods.
From the gods’ point of view, it is a moment, but from the humans’ point of view, it is quite a long time.
Because it’s not a relationship where you can give absolute orders.
Now, the members of the main gods, who have become the <Six Lords>, all fell into deep thought and returned to their own territory.
Barbatos, who was an absolute powerhouse, died. The fact that the person who killed Barbatos was a human was too shocking to shake off in just a day or two.
***
Yuma stared at the being in front of him.
Garenmun, a large archangel with blond hair, is kneeling.
Yuma was sitting on a chair. Garenmun continued to kneel in front of Yuma.
Arten, the master of the heavens, thought deeply for three days. Whom should we send, lest we incur the wrath of the humans who killed God? After much deliberation, Arten sent his left hand and close aide, Renmoon.
I don’t know if Yuma would even accept the sincerity with which he sent his left arm, but it was a choice made so people would know that it was as formal as possible.
Yuma looked at Garenmun and opened his mouth.
“So what is the business for which heaven sent you?”
Garenmun’s golden eye gazed into Yuma’s walled eye.
‘It’s too peaceful.’
After all, is this the being that killed God?
Garenmun opened his mouth.
“Our Lord would like to ask for forgiveness for the offense he committed against Yuma.”
Yuma had to rewind his memory for a moment and recall that heaven had sent an apostle to him and Belle.
The impression of Barbatos, who appeared in that battle state, was so strong that the memories of the battle with the apostle faded.
After thinking about it, it wasn’t something I could just say.
If you think about it from Yuma and Bell’s perspective, it was an attempt to destroy their personalities and turn them into puppets.
Yuma decided to freak out again.
“Seeing as that Cheonju guy didn’t come in person, it looks like he doesn’t have any intention of asking for forgiveness properly.”
Of course, it wasn’t a bad thing for those who suffered it. Because it was a threat from a being who killed a god.
“My wife, the Lord cannot leave the heavenly realm. That is why he sent me, who can be said to be his closest confidant.”
It seemed like he was in a similar situation to the Great Demon King, who was said to be unable to move in the demon world.
Yuma opened his mouth again.
“compensation.”
Garenmun widened his eyes.
“yes?”
“If you’re going to ask for forgiveness, you should have brought a compensation plan.”
As Yuma said that, he thought about what to expect from the Elyos.
