Chapter 728: The Sage’s Tower of Magic

The man in front of him was a human, or to be more precise a human that recently became a god. Brod raised his shaking arms and fussed over the man, worrying about his bleeding hands being cut.

‘How dare a mere Continental God that stands at the lowest…!’

That ‘mere’ Continental God kept his sword at bay. If Belovan had to be honest, this was something that was already shocking. In fact, he did not expect a man with the status of god and king to personally come here just for one mere vassal.

However, even if that was the case, they were still in for trouble.

“Just you?” Belovan snickered.

First, Absolute Gods were strong existences that others could not easily deal with. Besides, there were several gods and around 250,000 soldiers of the Divine Army in this place. Whatever choice he made, whether he ran away with Brod or killed everyone here, the Battle God would still go after them. He was still doomed to die in the end.

“Your Majesty.” Brod was choking up. He also knew how reckless Minhyuk was. Minhyuk told him that he would remember him, however, he had to live and stay with him for a very long time. Although his king told him to live with him for a long time, he knew that he could not do so. Their current situation was too desperate for them to be able to do that.

“Kill the Food God!!!”

“Cut down those that stand up against the Battle God!!!”

“Continental God, you have to pay the price for trying to stop the Battle God’s Divine Army!”

It seemed like there was only Minhyuk and Brod standing against hundreds of thousands of enemies. This scene brought along a wide, but creepy, smile on Belovan’s face. On the other hand, Brod was thinking about how he could somehow save His Majesty from this predicament.

“I…”

Minhyuk glared sharply, his gaze seen through the gaps of his black hair looked extremely cold. Belovan was startled to see those wide and gentle eyes giving such a cold look.

“…am not alone.”

That was when Belovan saw three weapons hanging on Minhyuk’s neck. The first weapon was a sword.

[The Emperor that commanded the entire continent brandishes his sword for the lowest God!]

[He was the Continental Emperor that united the entire continent!]

The next weapon was a spear shining a bloody red light.

[The greatest God of War in history wields his spear for the lowest God!]

[He was the one that commanded the greatest Heavenly Army!]

At the same time, the space behind Minhyuk opened up to reveal 100,000 soldiers of the Heavenly Army wearing white horned helmets, white armor, and holding shining and brilliant swords in their hands.

Then, the final one, a dagger fashioned out of a monster’s teeth.

[The Father of all of the monsters in the continent raises his sword for the lowest God!]

[He was the one that ruled all of the monsters in the entire continent!]

Just like how the space behind Minhyuk was torn apart, the sky above them also opened up.

“Kihyeeeeeeeeck!”

“Kyahaaaaaaaaack!”

“Graaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Dozens of dragons appeared soaring through the skies, unleashing several wide area-of-effect attack magic on the divine army soldiers beneath them.

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

Then, a goddess, beautiful enough to be called the Goddess of Beauty, appeared right beside Brod. She hugged Brod tightly and said, “Did you know?”

The woman’s gentle and warm voice seemed to melt the deep-seated exhaustion and fatigue in Brod’s body.

“Your king has overcome his greatest pain just for you.”

“…”

Brod felt a gush of warmth flood his chest as the God of Benevolence kissed him on the forehead.

[The God of Benevolence’s Barrier]

[No physical force or power will be able to break through the power of this barrier.]

As the barrier appeared and surrounded Brod, the God of Benevolence handed the dish that Minhyuk made to him. “This is a dish that your king has prepared solely for you.”

“…”

Brod looked at the dish for a moment before looking at Minhyuk, who was standing with hundreds of legends, pointing their swords, spears and arrows at the enemies, across the barrier. There were even several gods standing beside him and glaring sharply at the Divine Army.

Brod smiled as he looked at Minhyuk’s back. “I am glad to be serving him.”

The God of Benevolence smiled softly at him when she heard his words. “He is also very happy to have you by his side.”

Baaaaaaang—

Minhyuk began to advance together with the hundreds of legends and several gods, and flung God of Conflicts Belovan away. As his white cape fluttered, he gave a command to those that were fighting for him.

“Destroy them.”

***

The Food God’s friends, led by Minhyuk, began to push back Belovan, the gods and the troops of the Divine Army.

Baaaaaaaaang—

Minhyuk’s sword struck Belovan and sent him flying back. Belovan’s face was completely ugly.

‘How dare these human legends…!’

However, even though they were only human legends, they were all on a completely different level. Just because they were legends did not mean that they were all at a similar level. Each and every single one of them were at the level of a Supreme NPC. The problem was that there were also gods among the Food God’s friends.

However, Belovan was not that worried.

‘So what if they’re here?’

Slaaaaaash—

Belovan’s sword moved and slashed the neck of one of the legends.

Crackleee—

The legend, who was in soul form, disappeared into ashes. Belovan was confident that he had the power to kill Minhyuk, Brod and everyone here. In fact, Belovan’s level was extremely high. It was at around Level 800, perhaps even higher. Besides, it did not matter even if he lost all his troops here. It was fine since the Battle God would just send another Divine Army to him.

“Sword of Absolute Death.”

Swooooooosh—

At that moment, hundreds of sword lights with a 100% probability of hitting his vital points struck Belovan.

“Keuaaaaack!” Belovan screamed involuntarily.

Minhyuk then used ‘Like the Wind’ and appeared right under Belovan’s nose. “Did you think that support troops would come to your aid?”

“…?”

Belovan could not understand his words. That was only natural. After all, the Battle God would never let Minhyuk and Brod go. However, before coming here, Minhyuk had already prepared various items.

“There will be no reinforcements coming here. If you are wiped out here, then this battle will be over,” Minhyuk said, his lips twisting up into a smirk.

***

Before coming to the Land of the Gods.

Minhyuk finally woke up and had a conversation with Andeiro.

“So, what you mean to tell me is that nothing will change even if I go to Brod right away?”

“That’s right. The one that Brod is fighting right now is God of Conflicts Belovan. He is someone strong enough to be considered as the one standing at the peak of ordinary gods. He is one of the candidates to become an Absolute God. However, you have to know that he is on the Battle God’s side. Even if the Divine Army and the other gods are swept away like that, the Battle God will just continue to send an army as long as he’s alive.”

That was a problem. Even if Minhyuk brought along the Food God’s friends to save Brod and overcame the situation, they would still be left helpless. The Battle God would just continue to throw his forces into chasing after Brod and him. When that happened, they would be left defenseless. After all, the Food God’s friends would not be by their side forever.

“I don’t think killing the Battle God is an option, no?”

“…That’s impossible. The Battle God is hailed as the strongest and greatest among the Absolute Gods.”

Indeed. Minhyuk also thought that it was impossible.

“Then, is there really no other way?”

“No. It’s not like there’s no other method.”

In the first place, Andeiro had suggested that it was possible to save Brod by saying that the way to save him was by getting the help of the Food God’s friends. However, getting the help of the Food God’s friends was just a part of the process. Minhyuk could only save Brod after going through a long and arduous process.

Andeiro said, “I can bring the Battle God here for a moment using a portion of my powers.”

“…The Battle God?” Minhyuk looked at Andeiro in surprise.

Who was the Battle God? He was the being that appointed Nerva Sephiroth as the emperor of the Great Luvien Empire. He was also the god that most of the gods in the Land of the Gods served. Perhaps, if Athenae was taken out of the equation, he could be considered as the greatest among all of the gods.

Andeiro did not explain any further. However, Minhyuk understood him perfectly well.

“Please call the Battle God.”

“I understand,” Andeiro answered as he stood in front of a faceless statue. Then, a wisp of black energy shot out from his staff and entered the statue.

“…Heed my calls.”

The power remained in the statue before disappearing. No changes appeared in the statue. Andeiro’s expression turned ugly at that. So, he chanted the spell once again and called for the Battle God to come down to this place. However, the Battle God did not respond at all.

“What’s the matter?” Minhyuk asked, he could see that Andeiro’s tries were fruitless.

“The Battle God is not responding.”

“Why?”

“He’s ignoring you.”

“You said he’s ignoring me?”

The one that answered the question was not Andeiro, but Adren the God of Benevolence.

“The Battle God is the greatest among all of the gods. He’s not someone that other gods can see just because they wanted to. It doesn’t make sense for such a god to come here for you. After all, you are the lowest god.”

However, Minhyuk had to meet with the Battle God right at this very moment.

“Andeiro, keep on calling him.”

“I understand.”

What they were doing felt like they were keeping on calling someone that deliberately did not answer their phone. Still, they would call until the phone was picked up! However, no matter how hard they kept on calling, the Battle God did not respond.

“I don’t think anything would change if you go to save Brod right now,” Andeiro mumbled. He also felt confused. He never expected such a situation to happen. Even the Food God’s friends all looked discouraged by this.

‘Then, what if…’

At that moment, Minhyuk thought of using a trick.

Andeiro quickly noticed that Minhyuk had thought of something. “Did you come up with something?”

Minhyuk told Andeiro about the method that he thought of. The Food God’s friends, who were there with them, looked dumbfounded at what they heard.

“I don’t think the Battle God will accept something so ridiculous?”

“That’s nonsense.”

However, Minhyuk thought differently. There was always a way to get another person to respond.

“Andeiro. Call him one more time.”

“Are you really going to do it?”

Andeiro sighed when he saw Minhyuk nod. ‘I don’t know if it’s going to work but…’

In the end, a wisp of black energy once again swirled from Andeiro’s staff and entered the statue. Just like before, the statue still did not respond.

But then, using his most wretched and annoying voice, Minhyuk shouted, “Ah, that m*th**f*cker. He must have ran away because he’s scared. That must be the case, no? He must have ran away just now because he’s really scared?”

[The Battle God is descending by his own will!]

Eyes appeared on the blank face of the statue. The Battle God finally responded.
