Leveling with the Gods

Chapter 289

C289

Koo-koo-koo-.

YuWon stood still, staring at the sky unfolding before him.

There was a hole in the wall.

Not just an ordinary hole, but a huge hole, large enough for an entire section of the wall to disappear.

And beyond that hole, through the visible horizon line, a thick cloud with another equally large hole could be seen.

"I can't believe it..."

Truly, the wall had been broken.

Puff...

With the remaining remnants of his magical power, YuWon looked toward where Nir had passed through the breach.

The surface of the broken wall was smooth.

It seemed more like the wall had faded away rather than broken.

Gungnir was an object with the power of the Lightning attribute.

In contrast, Nir had the opposite attribute: Darkness.

This aspect was to be expected, as both possessed the power of annihilation and corrosion.

"Its power is as impressive as I expected."

YuWon's expectations for Nir were exactly the same as those for Gungnir.

Gungnir.

Odin's Spear, the strongest in the Tower.

Nir was equally powerful.

And it was no different to say that the Gungnir he had been waiting for was in his hands.

After a few moments of admiring the power of Nir...

"What the hell?!"

Gasping for breath, the guide who had led YuWon to the training ground rushed over.

"What have you done..."

He stared at the sky visible through the hole in the training ground wall and was speechless.

He had an expression of disbelief on his face, as if wondering how such a hole could appear there.

YuWon had nothing to say and avoided his gaze.

He also felt guilty in a way, as he couldn't deny his involvement in what had happened.

"I will contribute something for the repairs."

"I-Is it only here? There are cracks on all five floors, above and below."

"I'm sorry."

"Sigh-."

The guide held his frustrated head.

Although it wasn't his responsibility to deal with this as a lower-ranking person, after all, he was the one who brought YuWon here.

"According to the rules, if the training ground is damaged, it is our responsibility as those who built it, but..."

He saw the hole that YuWon had created.

"This is so unheard of that I can't even begin to imagine..."

The guide had originally thought that the training ground, boasting enough resilience to not break unless Odin threw Gungnir, wouldn't break or fade away as it had.

No one had anticipated a situation like this.

Meanwhile...

Buzz~

Through the abruptly opened hole, Nir returned to YuWon's hands.

Click.

[Engraving is complete]

[Nyr has recognized its new owner]

[Activation conditions apply]

Perfect.

An item that only he could use.

He couldn't feel any safer.

It even has a recovery function, making it more perfect.

While it required some concentration, the throwing object had all the necessary functions.

There was no more perfect item than this. It was the ultimate strike YuWon needed.

"Is that the spear?"

YuWon forced a smile.

Turning his head, he saw the Ranker from the Obelisk, who had been alerted of the situation, enter the room.

"Yes."

"We will take care of the repairs, but in the meantime, you will likely be banned from entering the training grounds."

An expression filled with concern and anxiety.

It was understandable. If YuWon were to use the training center again and the same hole appeared in the wall, it would be a real problem.

"I'm sorry about that."

"No, it's not the first time."

Not the first time.

YuWon looked perplexed.

Although he had quite extensive knowledge of history, this was the first time he had heard that particular story.

Well.

"I don't know everything," Yuwon thought to himself.

The information he had gathered was limited to the necessary plans to fight against the Outer Gods.

"The Obelisk collapsed once. It was rebuilt to prevent something like that from happening again, but..."

"Who was responsible?"

Several candidates crossed YuWon's mind.

The most likely one was Odin. His Gungnir, like his own Nir, had the power to bring down the Obelisk.

However, the name mentioned by the Ranker was different from what YuWon expected.

"It was Indra."

----------------------------

YuWon left the training ground and headed to his quarters.

The battle with Indra was approaching. Since he was about to fight, he planned to rest for the remainder of the day.

After entering the dormitory...

-It was Indra.

YuWon remembered what the Obelisk's manager had told him earlier.

'That wall...'

Although it was before they reinforced it, it was a statement that gave food for thought.

Indra.

An opponent he had never fought before, not even known.

Of course, his opponent was Asura, not YuWon.

'But there are more variables than I thought.'

Indra's overthrow by Asura was not the work of a single person. Indra, weakened by the war against the Dragons, was defeated by Asura in that battle.

A Rank 6, a High-Ranker.

Indra was not like Odin, who belonged to the powerful Asgard faction, but someone who reached that Rank solely with his pure strength.

YuWon estimated Indra's ability based on that Rank.

However, it seemed that he would have to change that assumption.

'Indra is a High-Ranker who has been inactive for thousands of years. It's natural for that long period of inactivity to be reflected in his Rank.'

However, despite that long period of inactivity, his Rank had not changed.

'After the Dragons moved in the Ragnarok, Indra broke his period of inactivity and started acting.'

YuWon began to gather the information in his head.

Indra's abilities.

His whereabouts, goals, and future tendencies.

At this moment, YuWon imagined what that guy would be doing.

'Hitting Indra's tribe to lure out Indra...'

He thought it was a good plan.

That thought had not changed. However, there was a slight shift in his thinking.

'Maybe the Dragons can't stop Indra.'

The Ragnarok started earlier than expected.

Naturally, the activities of the Dragons began earlier because of that.

Woong-.

Just then, the player kit rang.

[Indra clashed with Fafnir].

A message came from Son OhGong.

YuWon's eyes widened. He got up from the bed in his room as he read the next message.

[I let Vritra go for now. What should we do?]

It seemed he would have to advance the timeline a bit.

---------------------------------

"Hmm..."

Son OhGong scratched his chin.

As he moved on the desert rocky ground, his gaze turned to the player kit.

"No response."

There was no response from YuWon. If YuWon had checked, there should have been some form of communication.

And that meant...

"Is he telling me to do as I please?"

It also meant that there was nothing in particular to be cautious about.

Son OhGong's eyes sparkled. Soon, Vritra's voice resonated in his ear.

"Why are you following me?"

After hearing the news of the collision between Fafnir and Indra, Vritra stopped fighting against Son OhGong and immediately moved. Fortunately, Son OhGong's Flying Nimbus was fast enough to keep up with the dragon's flight.

Son OhGong persisted in following, which irritated Vritra, but Vritra couldn't keep worrying about Son OhGong.

At this very moment, Indra, Fafnir, and the Dragons would continue fighting.

Sssk-.

The corner of OhGong's lips lifted.

Actually, this situation was favorable to OhGong.

"I told you, I had no intention of fighting against you guys."

"Are you going to fight Indra?"

"Yes."

"It's not necessary. This is a matter for our Dragon Race."

"Now is not the time to discuss that, right?"

OhGong's words made Vritra go silent.

He was not wrong.

The opponent was Indra.

The Dragon Slayer. The natural enemy of Dragons.

Half of the Dragon Race had vanished in his hands. Fafnir had gathered an army to challenge Indra, and history would repeat itself once again.

But maybe not this time.

After all, he was the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, a presence strong enough to count on one hand even in this Tower.

"Instead..."

Vritra's eyes turned upward at the voice, which now sounded above him.

"When we capture Indra this time, don't hate humans too much."

"That's absurd."

"Well, just think about it a little."

It was acceptable to receive a response like that.

At this moment, OhGong trembled with excitement for the upcoming fight.

'I have conveyed everything I had to say.'

The reconciliation between Dragons and Humans.

Son OhGong had sought out Vritra for that purpose.

And, as YuWon said, OhGong extended his hand towards Vritra.

His task ended here.

From now on, he could fly freely.

The ground was stained with blood.

Indra stood in the center of the battlefield, half-naked and covered in blood, and looked at the great Dragon in front of him.

"Your resilience is truly impressive."

Indra's hand rose.

Pajajijik-.

A lightning bolt concentrated at the tip of his fingers.

Roar-!

Scream-!

Fafnir cried out as he was struck by a powerful blue lightning that engulfed him.

Thud-.

Fafnir finally knelt before the waves of lightning that swept through his body.

As a member of the Dragon Race, Fafnir had an innate resistance to mana-based powers. Fafnir had exceptional physical prowess even among his own Dragon Race.

But that didn't mean much against Indra.

It was not simply because he was the natural enemy of Dragons.

"How have you become stronger?"

Rank 6.

It was quite a high rank.

Fafnir knew the rankings, even if he didn't have player privileges and wasn't included in them.

However, despite that, Fafnir couldn't understand why this fight was so one-sided.

"I have trained relentlessly."

Clap-.

Indra clapped his two fists together.

"Unlike you, who just waste your time flowing aimlessly."

The Dragons had been in hiding for thousands of years.

During that time, Indra had tempered his body.

Relentlessly.

Pounding his own body over and over again, he gained his current power.

And this was the result.

Dragon Hunting.

Half of the Dragons had vanished by his hand. He intended to kill Fafnir and Vritra, the leaders of the Dragons, and the remaining Dragons.

That was the purpose of all his cultivation and training.

"You are the beginning of it."

Zap, zap-.

Arcane Power accumulated in Indra's fist.

Just as he was about to strike Fafnir's head and crush his skull in one blow...

Aaargh-!

A shrill scream echoed from somewhere.

Indra and Fafnir also felt something strange.

Soon, a dense shadow loomed over Indra's head.

"Indraaa-!"

The voice drew closer, and in the next moment...

Crash-!

Indra's body was crushed by a massive staff. Fafnir, still lying on the ground, looked up and saw the staff towering into the sky.

At the end of that staff...

"I've heard that you're strong."

A man with white hair and a mischievous expression stood there.

"Let's fight."

A man, the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, who appeared alongside Vritra, approached Indra to engage in a battle.
