Boundless Necromancer

408. Pantheon (5)

I felt it.

“….”

The Tower of Trials or the Pantheon.

It means that the final turning point has arrived, where one side has to choose which side to stand on.

Now I could see why the ancient deities, who had the greatest power in the universe, looked so favorably on this side.

‘I think I know roughly.’

Certainly.

‘Why did most of the ancient deities who should be the rulers of this universe show me such great favor?’

It was simple.

‘In the first place, ancient deities such as the God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God didn’t show their affection for me without reason.’

It’s nothing else…

‘The Tower of Trials and the supernatural powers of necromancy have built up my strength one by one, and I will become a new ancient deity in this universe.’

Most of the ancient deities who saw this side at the Tower of Trials showed good feelings or acted as if they saw an interesting possibility.

‘I guess they treated me that way because I realized that.’

Isn’t that because those ancient gods knew from the first time they saw this side in the Tower of Trials that this side would be the new ancient god of this universe?

“…”

However…

‘It doesn’t feel bad.’

That was it.

‘Because that’s how much I appreciated the value I had.’

Even if I put a value on my necromancy potential, that didn’t feel too bad either.

‘There’s nothing to feel bad about.’

It was worth it.

Originally, there must have been many candidates, not just me, selected by the Tower of Trials from among numerous challengers.

However, despite this, people like the God of Darkness and the Dragon God chose to favor this side rather than them.

‘Not to mention, even asking me to transfer to this pantheon and become the new main deity, none of that is harmful to me.’

Not even that.

Perhaps, from the moment he becomes the new head of the pantheon, he will be able to lead a comfortable life under the protection of those ancient deities.

It has become so obsessed with climbing the Tower of Trials that I don’t hear it often, but perhaps it would be fun to sit down on Earth as one of the rulers of the universe.

sweetly too.

‘I’ll be able to fully enjoy the power I built up on my own while getting away from the Tower of Trials or external enemies.’

Know.

In fact, there was no need for this side to be more immersed in climbing the Tower of Trials.

You will be able to enjoy the best life just by coming up with a very simple answer that you will become the new head of the pantheon.

「…」

「The dark god is looking at you.」

「

The demon god

is looking at you.」

“A number of ancient deities are watching your choices.”

And.

“….”

The moment I parted my lips while looking at the eyes of the ancient gods all full of anticipation.

“I am-.”

Why?

– I’ll tell you directly, member. You don’t have to go to the gym anymore.

Suddenly, some of the words I heard on the day I entered the Tower of Trials seemed to linger in my mind.

– To be honest, you are nothing.

The day I was chosen at the Tower of Trials, I remembered the moment when I had to give up everything on my own as the 7 years of hard work I had accumulated to become a Hunter went in vain.

– Do you think that working hard will change anything? It can’t be. It’s a futile effort.

It feels like playing an old videotape.

-Still, coming every morning to train has great grit… It’s a pity.

But even so, some parts felt so clear.

ㅡIt’s a pity. It’s just stupid to do that without knowing your subject matter.

mockery.

Feelings of contempt, disgust, and contempt.

Seven years of humiliation, shame, and an indelible sense of defeat, spent in hopeless despair.

“…”

and then.

“under.”

The moment I remembered even the remarks close to curses made by the many challengers or deities I saw while climbing the Tower of Trials.

“…”

“The god of arrogance looks at you with suppressed feelings of rage.” “The

god of pride looks at you with hatred.”

“The god of eternity looks at you in terror. 」

It was only then that I was able to realize what I wished for myself as I looked squarely at the many ancient deities who were oppressed by the dark god.

“I am-.”

From the beginning, there was only one answer.

“-I will climb the Tower of Trials to the end.”

He only hesitated because he knew what it meant to be the new head of the pantheon.

“Even if I don’t have to climb the tower any more, it doesn’t matter.”

Didn’t you already know exactly what you wanted anyway?

“…to have no one standing above me in this universe anymore.”

Then, I looked at the god of arrogance, the god of arrogance, and the god of permanence in turn.

“…to be able to no longer even think of those ancient deities crushing me.”

It was as if he was looking forward to the moment when he would devour those many ancient deities one by one.

“…maybe I won’t stop and grow stronger until no one in this universe dares to even think of antagonizing me.”

smiled innocently

「The god of transcendence and death smiles with an infinitely deep, greedy smile.

」 ]

Sincerely.

***

In an instant, silence settled in the hall.

[ …. ]

It was still.

Could it be that I didn’t know that this side would come up with an answer that was so radical?

All of a sudden, the God of Darkness, the Demon God, and the Dragon God were hardened as if they had received a mental shock.

but for a while.

「The demon god laughs, feeling pleasantly embarrassed at the answer you gave.

」 For some reason, you seem to have become an ancient deity and you seem to have almost no mental contamination, but in reality you have gone this far. ]

Starting from the fact that the Demon God heard what this side wanted, he laughed as if he was infinitely happy or as if he was dumbfounded, and the gods showed different reactions.

「The dragon god looks at you as if he feels sorry for you and shows his sympathy.

」 ]

Before he knew it, the dragon god spoke in a sad tone with his eyes narrowed as if he felt pity for this side, but he did not feel hostility or disappointment.

‘Am I not too angry at the fact that I didn’t choose the pantheon itself?’

In fact, the Demon God and the Dragon God did not show any dissatisfaction with the fact that I would remain in the Tower of Trials and become a Transcendentalist.

“The god of darkness looks at you and smiles with satisfaction.”

[Whoops. yes? Hey, that was the answer that suited you. wonderfully too. ]

It seems that the Dark God is not so different, she said with a benevolent smile.

[I can’t believe he saw even the Tower of Trials as a foundation for becoming a transcendent himself, and he even said he would devour all the gods in the universe… ] Before he knew it, the God of Darkness showed a greedy or possessive look

through his black robe and laughed. spilled

[If there was no Tower of Ordeal, it was an answer I liked enough to want to invite it to the pantheon even if I had to force it for the first time in a long time. ]

As if if there hadn’t been a Tower of Trials, this side would have already exerted its power to become the new head of the pantheon.

“…”

It was a very creepy sound.

[Whoops. It’s a joke. Aren’t you a child who will be trapped in the narrow well of this pantheon anyway? If so, it should be over soon. ]

The God of Darkness clapped his hands as if he had no intention of using his own hands and lightly announced the end of the meeting.

[ In addition to the reward for clearing the ordeal on the 27th floor of the Tower of Trials, I will add one of the holy relics in the Pantheon, so check it out later. ]

And…

「….」

「Complete calculation of compensation.」

「The Manshinjeon side gave an additional breakthrough reward to challenger Han Seong-yoon.」

「As an additional breakthrough reward, a ring full of darkness (S-) will be sent to your inventory.”

System messages appeared in front of you, announcing that you had obtained one of the sacred relics of the Pantheon.

「…」

「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward] is activated.」

「By using exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward], the reward level increases.」

「Additional breakthrough reward on the 27th floor」 A ring full of darkness (S-)’ is strengthened to a ‘ring full of darkness (SS-)’.」

‘That’s great.’

The moment when this side activated the exclusive authority ‘#D-0007 [Increase reward]’ and smiled with satisfaction.

「…」

「Time ended.」 「Return to the Tower of

Trials

」

“…”

and then.

“Then let’s go now.”

Seeing that, I looked up at the dark god, the demon god, and the dragon god, and bid farewell with a smile on my face.

「I regret that many of the ancient deities did not have more conversations with you.

」

As if looking forward to the next time we will meet.

“Yeah, at that time, I too would have reached the end of the ancient deity and become an equal strong person.”

Not even that.

“ah-.”

Suddenly, as if I forgot something, I saw a number of ancient deities being restrained and crushed under the round table, and continued as if mockingly.

“You want to see me again?”

It’s nothing else…

“Next time-.”

It was simple.

“The god of transcendence and death smiles and reveals

his intent to kill. ” ]

Before I knew it, I clearly expressed my murderous intent to tear and kill those many ancient deities one by one.

“A number of ancient deities are enraged by your words and express their murderous intent!” “

A number of ancient deities are enraged by your words and express their intent to kill…!

” Enraged by the words, he expresses his intent to kill…!]

[ ───!! ]

The provocation from this side worked well, and even though they were restrained by the god of darkness, they twisted their bodies around and emitted divine light.

“Wouldn’t it be a loss for you guys to want to fight me that much?”

There is one answer that this side will spit out.

“Yeah…”

The next moment.

“you.”

As it was, I looked at the many ancient gods and raised my voice with a laugh.

“Are you being silly?”

And that too with an incredibly unlucky expression.
