Chapter 55
I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 55
#55. The one who disturbs the underworld
“What… what now?”
“Incheon Airport… disappearing?”
In an instant, everyone’s faces turned white.
The same goes for the reporters who were covering the story.
Damdeok was the first to break the heavy silence.
“What exactly came out of the gate?”
The secretary answered, wiping his sweat with a handkerchief.
“That thing… It may or may not be a monster… Some say it resembles a ghost…”
Boom.
My heart sank.
Ghost? Are you saying it’s not a person?
So, could it be that one of the forgotten gods has appeared…?
His expression suddenly hardened.
If the forgotten god had really appeared, it was clear that even if everyone here attacked, there would be nothing they could do.
‘During Neptune and Karos, both main gods helped us.’
If that ghost monster that appeared at Incheon Airport was a forgotten god, then Korea was finished.
Damdeok’s trembling gaze turned to Ju Ju-yul.
But she shook her head slightly.
‘So you’re saying he’s not a forgotten god?’
It was a blessing in disguise, but it was too early to feel relieved.
‘It’s a monster big enough to destroy Incheon Airport…’
Damdeok said, looking back at the minister.
“Minister, can we fly a charter plane?”
“… suddenly? No, it won’t work, but….”
“Let’s go. “I will handle this matter.”
Damdeok almost forcefully took the minister with him and left the conference room.
Everyone looked at Damdeok’s back like a mute who had just eaten honey.
“…What is it really, that human?”
“Are you going to take care of the monster that blew up Incheon Airport by yourself?”
As the hunters just looked at each other with bewildered faces, Cheon Jung-ak gritted his teeth and spoke.
“What are you doing? “We have to chase after them right now!”
* * *
“Huh….”
“Oh my….”
“Nonsense…”
Korea’s best hunters stand in a row with their mouths open.
Before my eyes, a fight between two giant monsters was in full swing.
– Crrrrr!
-Keeeeee!!
A three-headed monster and a ghost the size of an apartment.
The two were stuck together and biting each other fiercely.
“Hmm, is it a mutant monster made up of ghosts?”
Damdeok leisurely sat on a rock and sipped beer.
‘Still, I can’t beat Cerberus. As expected, I will win without difficulty.’
As soon as Damdeok saw the huge ghost while traveling on the minister’s chartered plane, he thought of Cerberus.
Isn’t this a notorious guard dog that makes the dead of the underworld tremble?
I thought he would be the most effective at catching ghosts.
‘Thanks to you, I used a lot of my spiritual power.’
Unlike other wolves, the divine power needed to summon Cerberus was beyond imagination.
It takes twice as much spiritual power as Wave Slash to summon once, so summoning itself was a burden.
However, the reason I summoned him, even if it was unreasonable, was because I wanted to clear this place as quickly as possible and start training.
‘Did you say the next guardian is an ice giant?…’
Jusoyul said that in order to cure Adele Sharon’s mana deficiency, she had to go to the place where the ice giant was.
‘It was perfect because there happened to be a third guardian there.’
If there’s a small problem, this journey won’t be easy, right?
The place where the ice giant was located was Jotunheim, located near Asgard, a famous land in Norse mythology.
Just thinking about Thor, don’t you get a sense of how rough and bloody that land is?
‘I need to prepare well before I go this time.’
The desire for strength was felt more keenly than ever.
Whoop.
The beer can I was holding became lighter.
Damdeok tilted his head back and drank down the remaining beer.
Kwazijic!
At the same time as it crushed the empty beer can, Cerberus’ huge mouth tore the ghost’s body apart.
As Damdeok expected, Cerberus won with ease.
– Awww!!
Damdeok smiled as he watched the guy roar in victory.
“Tskcha.”
I walked down from the rock and was about to approach him when
I stopped.
Damdeok’s eyes narrowed.
‘Who is it…?’
A whitish human figure appeared beneath the roaring Cerberus.
‘No one will be able to come in here?’
This land was completely devastated. It was originally the site of Incheon International Airport, but now it was nowhere to be seen.
It is said that as soon as the giant ghost came out of the gate, it destroyed Incheon Airport and even ate up the nearby airport railroad. It is highly unlikely that there would be anyone left here.
Moreover, the troops and hunters who had been mobilized had all retreated after Damdeok’s Cerberus appeared.
Damdeok glanced back just in case.
You can see numerous troops and hunters deployed behind the yellow police line.
The place where Damdeok was standing was in the middle of a barren field.
I turned my head again and looked at Cerberus.
The human form had suddenly disappeared from nowhere.
“Did you see something useless?” Spot
when I tilted my head
!
Something passed by my cheek.
“…what?”
When I wiped my cheek with my sleeve, there was blood on it.
Something sharp had torn my right cheek.
“Yoo Dam-deok, come to your senses.”
Ju Soo-yul approached me in an instant and was blocking my path with his dagger drawn.
A man with pitch black skin can be seen between the fluttering hair.
“Kkkkkk, isn’t it very embarrassing that you are protecting him like that?”
The man held up a sharp blade like a needle and flicked his tongue.
Ju Soo-yul did not take his eyes off the guy even for a moment.
Just by looking at him, it was clear that he was nervous.
‘I can’t believe the address rate is tense. ‘Who on earth are you?…’
Jo Soo-yul began in a quiet voice.
“…Baron, what is this?”
At her question, a man named Baron suddenly approached her.
Cheoeok.
“What are you doing? The guy hiding behind you is disrupting the order of the underworld. huh? hey? “Why don’t you just stop hiding there and say something?”
Baron looked at Damdeok and smiled.
He had black skin that contrasted with his pure white hair, a moderately stocky physique, and was even holding a sharp awl, so he looked very dangerous.
“…I disrupted the order of the underworld?”
In response to Damdeok’s question, Baron shrugged his shoulders and flicked his left hand.
Sigh.
With a sound, the huge Cerberus behind disappeared in an instant.
You can hear people murmuring in the distance.
Jump and jump.
Baron, who just passed Joo-yul, stood in front of Damdeok and put his face in.
“It’s very cunning of you to use Hades’ beloved spiritual items as you please. “That’s a low-level god, too.”
Baron was still smiling, but somehow he got goosebumps.
My intuition was telling me.
The guy in front of me can never win.
“Hey, talk away.”
When Jusoyul’s dagger reached the base of his neck, Baron smiled and raised both hands.
“Ah, calm down. “I just came here today to talk.”
lie.
At that moment, those words almost came out.
The wound on his cheek was being healed by the self-healing power, but the area around his face was still tingling due to the harsh flesh radiating from Baron.
“Hades is very busy these days. The number of dead people coming in has suddenly doubled, so there is no end to judging them. “I tend to stay up all night.”
Baron stroked his chin and continued.
“Your matter is from Hades himself. He said he would take care of it, so I’ll just leave today…”
I thought the guy’s finger was moving slightly, but the awl disappeared in an instant.
Spot!
My completely healed cheek was torn apart again.
Blood flowing down.
I swear it was a speed I could never avoid.
“Do not summon Cerberus from now on. It’s a hassle to pick them up one by one. “Are you going to kill Hades before that anyway?”
Baron giggled and was enveloped in pitch-black smoke.
“See you next. “Of course, we will see it in the Underworld, not here.”
Hwiiing.
Black smoke was blown away by the blowing wind. Baron had already completely disappeared.
Damdeok was half in a daze.
‘Hades… I thought you forgot about me after that.’
I guess not.
If I sum up what the guy named Baron said, Hades was busy with work and couldn’t come to get me. This meant that they could come to kill him as soon as the time came.
“…Are you okay?”
Damdeok slowly nodded in response to Jooyul’s question.
“okay. But I don’t know if it will be okay in the future.”
The huge ghost gate incident that destroyed Incheon Airport.
Damdeok’s performance in immediately organizing the scene was reported nationwide and praised as a hero, but no one noticed that his expression was dark the entire time.
* * *
Uddangtang!
After rolling several times, Baekgureum got up and shouted.
“Oh brother! “Be gentle!”
“What is Salsal? “Do we have the luxury of doing that?”
“Why on earth are you like this these days? “It’s like I’m going to conquer the world all by myself… Ugh!”
An arrow flew quickly at Baekgureum, who was swinging his sword with his teeth clenched.
An arrow surrounded by black flame flew into the wooden doll behind it.
Pow!
As soon as it hits, it screams! Burning wooden doll.
The moment Baekgureum swallowed his saliva and brought his gaze straight to the front,
Damdeok’s fist flew straight at him.
The fist surrounded by pitch-black flame gave a chilling feeling of fear, like an attack from the Grim Reaper.
“Ahh! Seed!”
I hurriedly bent down to avoid the fist, but
it struck me!
Before I knew it, Damdeok’s sword was pointed next to my face.
“Wow, that’s really bad….”
Baekgureum slowly raised both hands.
My entire face felt hot due to the heat of the black flame surrounding the sword.
“Are you planning to burn me to death? “My brother won, so clean it up quickly.”
Only after Damdeok had confirmed his victory did he slowly withdraw his sword.
“Thank you for your hard work. But aren’t you moving too slowly these days? I told you not to rely solely on swordsmanship. Mix in some punches and kicks here and there, man. uh? “Colorful!”
When Damdeok scolded him, shaking off his sweat-soaked hair, Baekgureum stuck out his lips.
“No bro, do you know how many hours we trained today? It’s like seventeen hours! Seventeen! From five in the morning until now at ten at night! uh?! Ah you kidding me?!”
Damdeok heard those words with one ear and let them go with the other.
Ten days have already passed since the Incheon Airport gate opened.
From that day on, Damdeok was training in hell every day.
Of course, we trained together with Jooyul, Baekgureum, and even Adele Sharon, who was summoned using God’s Call in between.
‘Because the priests become stronger, that means I become stronger.’
Although Baekgureum was grumbling, he had also become noticeably stronger.
Of course, I don’t think I really realize it, but…
I learned a lot of tricks about magic from Adele Sharon, and my speed improved even faster because I had someone teaching me.
‘If I just do a little more, I can reach the 3rd circle.’
Although it is only Circle 2 so far, it has been successful because it has become natural to not only apply black flame to arrows or swords, but also to other parts of the body.
It was a wonder that I didn’t get burned with black flame oozing from my bare fist with a bandage around my wrist.
Of course, this may be because Snow White’s affinity for the black salt attribute is 99.9%.
“Are you training so hard because of Hades?”
Ju Soo-yul asked as he opened the chicken box.
– will!!
Even though I didn’t even tell her to change shape, Baekseol was the first to run out and take a seat.
Soon after, Baekgureum jumped in and snatched Baekseol’s chicken leg and started throwing a tantrum.
Damdeok grinned and approached Ju Soo-yul.
“Well, it looks like you’re struggling to survive?”
“no. But it’s inefficient to train recklessly like this when you don’t know when Hades might show up.”
Damdeok lightly took the chicken leg that Baekgureum had grabbed and took a bite.
“Ah bro!!”
– will!!
Baekseol and Baekgureum poured out their resentment at the same time, but Damdeok giggled and continued his next words.
“I know what you mean. “You mean it would be more efficient to get stronger by working part-time for the gods instead of training here?”
“okay. It’s dangerous to stay here. “If you travel around the world of the gods and train, even Hades won’t be able to find you easily. Also, you can buy something more with the name you get from your part-time salary.”
Jooyul pointed to the lion armor that became Damdeok’s trademark.
There was even a cafe on the Internet that promoted Damdeok as a god, saying it was the return of Hercules.
“I work part-time for the gods to avoid Hades…”
Damdeok nodded slowly.
I also completely agree with Joo-yul’s thoughts.
But if there is something a little different….
“It is true that you should go to God’s part-time job, but the reason is wrong.”
“what?”
Damdeok smiled and looked at the system window in front of him.
“I’m not taking a part-time job to avoid Hades.”
“then?”
Ju Soo-yul asked with a puzzled look.
“I’m going to work part-time to meet Hades.”
