Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 877

Clank, clank, clank, clank, clank

The Ego Chain Sickles attack power was on par with Brod's, perhaps even higher. Now that it was not being restrained, it began to strike the lifeless and listless Viel nonstop.

Bang Bang Bang Bang!

[Viels durability has dropped below 75%.]

[Viels durability has recovered by 3%.]

[Viels durability has dropped below 72%.]

[Viels durability has recovered by 3%.]

[Viels durability]

Viels recovery ability was excellent. However, the damage that the Ego Chain Sickle could deal was so high that even Viel had a hard time enduring it.

[Speed Increase.]

[The Ego Chain Sickles speed will double for five seconds!]

The faster Ego Chain Sickle frantically hit Viel, who continued to stand still.

[The damage received has been doubled!]

[Viels durability has dropped below 52%!]

But that was not all; the Ego Chain Sickle could also trigger its double critical damage, an effect that could only be activated with a 12% chance, and tear apart Viel until he looked horrendous.

Even if Viel was destroyed here, he would be fully restored and could be summoned once again after a week. The only problem was that if Viel fell here, the Ego Chain Sickle would definitely come after the barrier protecting Minhyuk. And once that happened, the barrier would not be able to last for two minutes. For Minhyuk, who was only about to finish cooking, his odds would disappear.

At that moment, Evoque pulled the spear out of Viel, who was listless and defenseless. And the moment he pulled out the spear, Viels durability dropped even lower. It was literally like adding salt to an injury.

[Viels thoughts and ideas have been significantly reduced!]

Viel might only have a small fragment of his ego left, but even that tiny fragment of his ego was a part of him. He was once someone who ruled over the entire Edea and trampled on all beings. He was also someone who had dreamt of becoming the Sky. And, to be honest, he had all of the qualifications to become one. However, Viel was now forced under someones orders to receive the damage on their behalf. Of course, he would be angry.

How did I come to this point? was probably what he, who once dreamt of becoming the greatest and the best yet fell and became a puppet, was thinking.

Viel!

Viel, who bowed his head, heard Minhyuks voice in his ears. Although Minhyuk owned Viel now, he was the one who killed Viel, and that was something that even the puppet could not forget.

You are the greatest god that I have ever acknowledged.

This was the truth. Viel was stronger than Spear God Ben. He was as strong, perhaps even stronger, than the Fallen Wretched Emperor Brod. And Minhyuk's words touched Viel, whose pride and ego had been hurt.

[Emperors Authority.]

[The Emperors Comfort has been activated!]

The main reason why Viel, who was only left with a small fragment of his ego, could focus on Minhyuks words was because of the Emperors Comfort. Why did the Emperors Comfort get triggered? Viel might only be a puppet now; however, whether he wanted to or not, he could now be considered Minhyuks Vassal. That was why the authority was triggered. Another reason was Minhyuks CHA. Minhyuks CHA had exceeded 12,000 points, which influenced his voice and added more charm and power.

Are you just going to be trampled by a mere god like that?! The sword and abilities I had experienced when I fought you were far beyond what that god can display!

Minhyuk did not lie. If one took away the Ego Chain Sickle, then Spear God Evoque was someone Viel could quickly kill.

Do you no longer want to be the best?

Viel glanced at Minhyuk, his sharp, lifeless puppet eyes giving the emperor goosebumps. That was right. Viel still wanted to be the best, even if he was nothing more than a puppet now.

Does someone who wants to be the best, easily fall like that against the man in front of him?!

In Viels eyes, the Spear God was strong. However, the man could not overwhelm him.

Crack, crack, crack, crack!

Evoque pulled his spear out of Viels body in a blink. He stepped back all at once and stabbed his spear on the ground. Die.

Rumbleeeeeeeeeeeee!

The ground rumbled and twisted as the force that stretched out of Evoques spear moved toward Viel. Viels durability had almost reached the bottom.

[Viels durability has dropped below 17%!]

Then, Minhyuk said, Show me who you are, Viel!

Viel, staring at Minhyuk, immediately turned around and triggered his skill. And the skill that he triggered? It was Viels pinnacle skill, Skys Roar. Minhyuk did not even have the opportunity to witness it in the past. This was because Viel firmly believed he could kill Minhyuk without using this skill. Besides, he had received the protection and blessings of the Jade Emperor back then; even his ordinary skills had power comparable to that of a pinnacle skill.

Skys Roar.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

A gigantic greatsword fell from the sky, stabbed itself into the ground, and quickly countered and offset the Spear Gods power. Viel charged toward the greatsword.

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

An AOE attack skill engulfed an area with a radius of several meters. The attack brought forth shocking damage as it bombed Spear God Evoque.

Keuaaaaaaaaaaack!

The Ego Chain Sickle swiftly flew toward Viels head when Evoques scream rang.

Thud

Holding onto the joints that connected the chain and the sickle, Viel turned to look at Minhyuk. In just that short moment, Minhyuk had finished cooking and was already in the middle of eating the buff dish- none other than Crunch Toast.

[The bond between you and Viel has increased.]

[Viels ego has grown slightly.]

Minhyuk hated Viel. And, of course, the same was true for Viel. However, Viels fate was now tied to Minhyuk. It would be better for the two to cooperate than to hate each other. Minhyuk knew this all too well; perhaps even Viel, who only had a small fragment of his ego, also knew this.

Ughh. Kghhk... " Evoque groaned. After the Sky Roar's effects ended, his torn and ripped body was left in a haggard state. However, even if he was left in such an embarrassing state, he was still a god and still had a recovery ability beyond anyones imagination. Just like that, the injuries that covered Evoques body healed rapidly.

Viel glanced at Minhyuks once again. He knew what to do now that his summoning time was about to end.

Clink!

Skys Frenzy.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Viels sword moved swiftly, his attack speed drastically increasing with the skills activation as he attacked the Ego Chain Sickle.

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!

Minhyuk, looking at the cracks that started to appear on the surface of the Ego Chain Sickle, continued eating his crunch toast. One bite, and the unique flavor of applesauce and the deep flavor of the crunch toast spread in his mouth.

This is truly the best dish to eat when ones hungry.

Of course, Minhyuk never forgot his reasons for coming to the Argalis Dungeon. His first reason was to eat delicious dishes. His second reason was to help Ravier let go of his resentment. His third reason was to obtain the Food Gods most significant power.

Crunch, crunch

Minhyuks mouth was filled with the fantastic combination of cabbage, cheese, and ham flavors. He smiled in delight as he finished the toast in a few bites and topped it off with a cool and refreshing cider.

Gulp, gulp, gulp

As the refreshing and bubbly feeling reached his throat, a series of notifications rang in his ears.

[You have succeeded in destroying the Ego Chain Sickle!]

[You have obtained the Ego Chain Sickle!]

At the same time, Viels figure disappeared. Another series of notifications immediately followed it.

[Double Food.]

[Double Food has replicated the dish and turned it into two!]

Overlapping Delight.

[Overlapping Delight.]

[You can now receive the effects of two dishes simultaneously.]

A rolling die emitting a golden light appeared above them.

Ring!

[The soul of Evas, the creator of the Argalis Dungeon, has grown furious after seeing a trivial and weak god dare to challenge his dungeon!]

[The soul of Evas, the creator of the Argalis Dungeon, cannot hide his anger after witnessing the destruction of the Ego Chain Sickle!]

[The soul of Evas has started the Dungeon Activation!]

[The soul of Evas has made Spear God Evoque 8% stronger!]

...

It was ridiculously absurd. Evas immediately interjected when the Food God, a god he had mocked and jeered at, pushed him to a corner. Of course, the First Food God Ravier also did not stay still.

[The soul of Food God Ravier stares at Evas!]

[Food God Ravier glares sharply at the cowardly, pompous, and underhanded Evas!]

Food God Ravier was most likely glaring at the Evas statue standing behind Evoque.

[Food God Ravier tells you to show it to them!]

[The power left behind by the First Food God, Ravier, is now being revealed through the current Food God!]

A number finally appeared as the golden die slowly turned to a stop.

[The die has been cast! You have rolled one!]

[The Overlapping Delights buff effect will last for thirty seconds!]

[You have received the effects of the Epic Grade Bizarre Crunch Toast and the Epic Grade Crunch Toast!]

Minhyuk felt that he was unlucky after seeing that the effects only lasted thirty seconds. However, he believed that this was more than enough time. After all, he was a master at adding the desired effects to his dishes, choosing the ingredients that would boost those effects.

[All of your stats have increased by 3%!]

[Your physical and magical attacks have increased by 25%!]

[The first skill you will use will receive a +3 increase in skill level!]

Crackleeeee

Huge blazing flames shot out from the blade of Minhyuks sword. The fire covered a much longer distance than it originally could. Overlords Technique, now the Supreme Overlords Technique, had already reached the God grade level, meaning its power had significantly increased. But Minhyuk did not end it there. He applied the effects of the Overlapping Delight to this skill.

[The Supreme Overlords Techniques level has temporarily increased by +3!]

[The Overlords Fire, with an additional 14,000~18,000% attack, will attack everyone within a 260~280 meter radius!]

Crackle

Evoque, who had recovered from his injuries to some extent, stared in trepidation at the blazing flames that slowly engulfed the dungeon.

***

God of Dungeons Bentley was in an excellent mood after he appeared in front of the Battle God and approved the title God Above Gods as a reward.

The Battle Gods chosen successor has already died once inside the Argalis Dungeon.

Of course, he did not forget to make a report while approving. It was a deliberate move to provoke and irritate the Battle God.

Bentley wanted to become the Battle Gods Descendant himself. Although he did not have absolute and overwhelming power and might, he could create outstanding dungeons. He firmly believed his outstanding dungeons were enough to protect the Land of the Gods. And if he could combine his power with the Battle Gods power, he would be the only candidate to protect and maintain the Land of the Gods.

But then, the Battle God spoke.

You have approved the title as a reward because you have judged that its impossible to obtain, no?

How dare I make such judgments?

Although he said those words, there was an imperceptible smile on Bentleys face. After dealing with that matter, he warped back to the Argalis Dungeon. However, Bentley was left in shock when he came back.

[Evas soul has activated the Dungeon Activation!]

Evas created this masterpiece of a dungeon. Because of that, a portion of his soul was embedded deeply in it, which could be said to be his most significant and final masterpiece.

Bentley was fully aware that the Activation would only be triggered during emergencies.

Theres an emergency?

If there were an emergency, the gates the challengers had to pass would be reinforced and grow more difficult.

Vwoooooooooooong

At that moment, the entire Argalis Dungeon shook and trembled.

Baaaaaaaaang

Ultimately, a portion of the dungeon collapsed as a huge pillar of flames soared to the sky. Bentley hurriedly took out the crystal ball to see the situation inside, where the Food God was facing Spear God Evoque.

Inside the crystal ball, the figure of a man walking amidst the black flames that devoured the entire dungeon appeared.

Thud, thud, thud, thud

Bentley could faintly see the silhouette of the man through the blazing flames. It seemed like the man was holding two swords as he walked past someone lying on the ground.

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

The two swords released hundreds of sword lights that slashed the person lying on the ground indiscriminately. The man subjected to the harsh and reckless attacks of the dual swords was assumed to be Evoque. The man that Bentley thought to be Evoque tried to struggle against the crazy onslaught of attacks. However, in the end, his body slowly started to collapse.

Vwooooooooong

Crack Crack, crack Crack, crack

Along with his fall, the gigantic statue of Evas standing behind him also began to crumble and fall.

The black flames slowly started to disappear. Once the fire disappeared, Bentley could finally see the entire situation. He saw the Food God standing before the collapsed statue with Evoques body lying behind him.

The Food God then moved forward, his foot stepping on the rubble left behind by the collapsed statue.
