Chapter 371
Episode 371
《The Great Wait》
The Heavenly God sealed his power ‘here’ for the successor who will fulfill his long-held wish. As the successor to the Celestial God, you have the opportunity to acquire his sealed powers and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
Condition: Reach the top floor of the ‘Dwelling of the Heavenly God’
Difficulty: Not measurable
Reward: Increased job skill proficiency
It is common sense that the level of the Heavenly God’s Truth quest is divided by difficulty.
The higher the difficulty, the better the rewards.
However, no specific difficulty level was provided for this quest.
‘Anyone can see that it’s incredibly difficult.’
Based on my experience so far, I thought it would be at least SSS rank difficulty.
I only got to the second floor, but the level of mobs that appeared was no joke.
In order to get to the top floor, you may not only have to do your best, but you may also have to be prepared to activate death denial.
However, the difficulty level cannot be measured…
“It’s similar to that quest.”
《Reveal the truth about the Gourmet King!》
The legend of the Gourmet King handed down in Fate World. As a heavenly gourmet, you have the ability to reveal the truth of the legend. No one can predict what consequences the truth of the legend will bring. But keep in mind that the ‘history’ of Fate World is in your hands.
Conditions: Heavenly Gourmet Job Quest
Difficulty: Not measurable
Reward: Not measurable
Difficulty not measurable.
A job quest with an immeasurable reward.
When X looked into the quest window, his questions did not stop there. Because the reward for the Celestial God’s quest was very strange.
‘Increases job skill proficiency.’
There were many quests that increased job skill proficiency.
When the martial artist class reaches level 100, you will receive a training quest that rewards you with job skill proficiency.
But those quests have something in common.
‘The person who gives the quest is the teacher.’
Or maybe it’s a former officer.
In summary, quests that reward job skill proficiency were no different from job quests.
X began to have reasonable doubts.
“…Are you saying you were the successor earlier?”
Could it be that Celestial God is the first Celestial Gourmet? When I had that doubt, something came to mind.
-Now that I think about it, I heard that Heavenly God was also very good at eating. You said that you ate every meal even though there was no need to eat in heaven.
The words that the Titan uttered in passing.
If a heavenly god is a heavenly gourmet, then his appetite for good food is understandable. Because Heavenly Gourmet is a job that requires you to eat to become strong.
Priyan gave X, who stopped his hand, a desperate look.
“what’s the matter? “Is there anything wrong with the food?”
“…no.”
Anyway, let’s think about it while eating.
I was so hungry now that I couldn’t think straight.
Sizzle!
Anyway, X followed in the shadow of the gourmet king and created a heavenly dish.
‘I’ve reached the end of my proficiency level, but it seems like it’s not enough for 5 stars.’
Still, I wasn’t impatient.
Wasn’t the reward for the quest you just received an improvement in job skill proficiency?
Currently, X’s proficiency in all Heavenly Gourmet job skills has reached master.
‘If I just complete the quest, I might be able to reach the ultimate level.’
Thinking positively gives you strength.
Munching.
X took a bite of the fried noodles.
[The heavenly sense of taste has discovered the hidden taste of ‘Four-Star Cooked Fire Pork Stir-Fried Noodles’!]
[The hot heat is absorbed into the body!]
[The special passive skill ‘Flaming Hand-Held Tank’ is activated for 24 hours!]
Sub-skill Burning hand-to-hand combat tank!
As the name suggests, it was a hand-to-hand combat tank that was very helpful in repetitive and continuous battles.
When activated, the effect disappears, but it can emit a curtain of flame that momentarily greatly reduces damage received.
“Kekkek.”
Priyan, who was also holding a fork, cleared his throat.
“X! Water water!”
spicy.
Priyan’s taste buds haven’t been working properly for a long time.
I ate spicy fried noodles as my first meal, and the spicy flavor was enough to make me cry.
But would you be able to put down your fork?
“Wow, you always make food the same way. “It’s spicy, but I want to keep eating it.”
Eating fried noodles while crying! X, who was smiling at Priyan, continued to worry.
‘I’m not sure, but…’
The probability that Heavenly God was a ‘Heavenly Gourmet’ was quite high. So naturally, the king of gourmet food comes to mind.
Are the Heavenly God and the Gourmet King different people
or the same person?
“Tsk tsk, you’ll find out automatically when you get to the top floor.”
Let’s shake off complicated concerns that don’t have answers. Because the reward of the quest was not just job skill proficiency.
The truth of heaven.
After seeing the truth, my doubts seemed to be resolved to some extent.
My stomach was full, all that was left was to climb to the top floor.
A mouth that didn’t stop even while thinking. X, who had already emptied his plate neatly, scolded Priyan.
“Stop eating and go up quickly.”
After giving him spicy and hot food like this, he got up and said he ate it first!
I don’t know if it doesn’t taste good. Panting, Priyan’s lips, red with spice, pouted.
“X! “Are you taking revenge on me for everything you’ve done to me?!”
*
Heavenly God’s ordeal became more severe as time went by.
X’s hair was drenched with pouring sweat.
Even beads of sweat were flowing down and blocking my vision, and I had no idea this was the fiercest struggle I had experienced in some time.
Trials well over 4000 levels.
From Ordeal-3 onwards, his appearance changed slightly from that of an ordinary knight.
The unknown pattern on his shoulders was the same, but he had large wings on his back.
Rather than just decoration, it used its wings to engage in aerial combat.
Kang-!
Descending vertically in the air. Because of the falling speed, the power of the spear thrust would have been doubled.
bang-!
X activated the Kalsumar shield technique to block the attack.
[A stun effect occurs on Celestial Trials-4!]
“Suppress the breath of ice!”
Priyan quickly took charge of the ordeal, which left him stunned.
It was a level 4000 monster that even Sioras and Ligrien could not handle, but Priyan was a god in name and appearance.
Damn it!
As large chunks of ice stuck to Ordeal’s limbs, his wings gradually became dull and his body began to fall to the ground.
The finishing touch was X’s responsibility.
“Berserker’s Beat.”
Maximize attack power.
He threw away the Titan’s arrow that was strapped to his back.
bang-!
It pierced the heart of the ordeal with a loud sound.
Tiroling!
[Your level has risen!]
“Aaaah. “I really thought I was going to die.”
“Even though you are a god, you worry about your body more than humans.”
“It hurts when you get hit. Can’t you see the wound here? And are you a normal human being? Even God can’t fight like this. “Even titans can’t fight like you!”
Even though they were bickering verbally, their chemistry was getting better.
Even though I’m dealing with a bunch of level 4,000 monsters, I never take fatal damage.
‘Clear to the 5th floor.’
X looked around the empty 5th floor. Fortunately, the defeated monster did not regenerate.
You’re happy that monsters don’t respawn.
“Now it feels like an ordeal rather than a hunt.”
Still, it is called an ordeal because there is a reward.
X confirmed the level that was the result of a fierce struggle.
Level: 950
After entering the Heavenly God’s abode, he rose a whopping 22 levels.
Considering the experience required at level 900, it could be said that the growth rate was incredible.
But it doesn’t end there. Because there was a time distortion spell in the Heavenly God’s abode.
X checked the real time and raised the corners of his mouth.
‘The world will be noisy again tomorrow.’
Level 22 in 1 hour.
When the mage ranking was updated a day later, it was difficult for even X to guess how many levels he would have risen.
What is certain, however, is that this is an opportunity that does not come easily! X headed towards the stairs without stopping.
If I keep doing this, I will really catch a glimpse.
Priyan continues to moan.
“No, you’re really sorry for messing up on the East Continent? “I sincerely apologize!!”

Someone
said that a crisis is an opportunity.
Mage’s game masters tapped their keyboards with more energy than ever before.
Fate Alive’s new project made their energy surge.
“I never thought that having been bombarded with phone calls would help me here.”
“Oh, you too, senior? I was also focusing on the areas where users complained. Well, starting with drop items that don’t match the level, there are also balance issues for each class…”
Of course, it wasn’t an official project.
The chairman is wanted and the CEO is being investigated by the prosecution.
In this situation, the news that development of a sequel had begun only stimulated players’ anxious psychology.
Seongcheol Kim shrugged his shoulders.
“…I think I’m preparing a surprise gift.”
“Surprise gift? “That’s a really cute idea.”
“Anyway, changing it is only part of it. All you have to do is fix the system and balance, so it doesn’t take much time, right? “The hiatus will be as short as possible, almost like a large-scale patch!”
Seo Myung-woo snorted.
“Well, that’s okay. “It would only be true if everything had a happy ending.”
After hearing from Carla, they know full well how dangerous Blossom is.
The conditions for seeing a happy ending are truly heinous. Kim Seong-cheol let out a bitter smile.
“But we have to think positively.”
“It’s good to be positive, but don’t get too excited.”
Seo Myung-woo raised his head and glanced at his colleagues.
“No one wants to get stabbed in the back twice.”
The reason game masters were so absorbed in Fate Alive was also to forget their feelings of betrayal toward Schubert.
Schubert was like the spiritual leader of the employees.
Seongcheol Kim answered without losing.
“…Wouldn’t it be nice to be strong enough not to stumble even if you get hit in the back of the head? Even if the ending goes wrong, I believe that if I work hard, the opportunity will come. “That is the power of Fate.”
“Is that so?”
I can’t kill my energetic junior anymore. Seo Myung-woo shrugged his shoulders.
“Then how about checking to see if the protagonist is doing well?”
“…X?”
“Yes, I guess I should try using what I already received.”
Seo Myung-woo took out a USB from a drawer and showed it.
He said that the USB he received from Carla contained a serial that, when activated, would grant administrator rights comparable to Schubert.
Click-!
Seo Myung-woo plugged the USB into the main unit.
“Strictly speaking, it would be correct to have monitoring privileges rather than administrator privileges… but where are they? “Being able to check the status of players in real time.”
Seongcheol Kim nodded.
It is a natural authority for a game master, but since running Fate, I have come to appreciate even such trivial authority.
“…do.”
Several program windows appeared, and finally a screen appeared.
Fate World’s evangelism and a list of players to watch out for have appeared.
But… something was strange.
“Senior Seo. “Is this correct?”
“what? “Do you see any problem?”
Myung-woo Myung looked at the direction where Seong-cheol Kim’s finger was pointing. Even his fingers were shaking.
“X? Why X?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
