Chapter 308 – 307. In Search of Divinity (4)

“You look like you’re in quite a bit of trouble, Clark.”

Demeter said,

“…That’s why we came.”

Hestia looked at me with worried eyes,

“Someone“Something keeps calling me telepathically.”

Ares tsk, clicks his tongue and shakes his head.

“Hmm.”

Finally, when Ares spoke, Ilias cleared his throat and averted his gaze.

And Ilias also summoned those who had become lower gods under him in his own way, and I could see that he had called them to resolve the current situation.

At the same time, I could see how narrowed my vision had become.

Among the things they came to mind right now was that the humans here believe in the gods, follow the gods, and obey and accept the decisions made by the gods.

In that case, it is right that we should have asked them for help as well.

…Moreover, if they are sentenced in a place where such a large number of troops are gathered.

I can’t really express my dissatisfaction.

“I guess there’s something I need to help you with, don’t you think?”

“…”

“Why are you so far from omnipotence, Clark?”

This is really

He’s not just laughing at me, he’s saying that with a teasing look in his eyes.

Of course, I also have a lot to say.

The reason it looks strangely cheerful is probably because I look so funny right now.

Actually, it’s very simple for them.

Liz also tsk’d at the appearance of Ares, clicked her tongue and stepped back.

As long as Ares came, he was such an authoritative god that even Riz retreated without complaint.

Only Gawain is wary of him, and at the same time, other knights and troops also kneel down on one knee as Ares, the god of war, appears, and the soldiers put their hands together or bow their heads to the ground, including Ares. They were welcoming the gods of Olympia.

Okay.

Like it or not, this is the land they cultivated, this is their home.

The remarks they make in such places are-

And the punishment they hand out is-

Fuuuuuk!!

Absolutely.

“Aaaaah!!”

“Ugh!?”

“Gareth of Camelot, Gaheris. I will punish you, you bitches. I will take away your power to hold the sword.”

Ares approached indifferently and swung his sword at the two, but the sword did not spray blood.

But I cut their shoulders and arms with precision, and I saw their souls disappear from their bodies and into their hands.

No, it didn’t disappear, it was [Sealed].

It’s as if he’s just looking at me and telling me to deal with it after seeing what you do later.

Demeter’s punishment came for the second time.

“I will place the greatest curse on you who sprinkled the blood of countless children on this land, drove children to death, and drove women to death. What kind of [Human] You won’t even be able to have children.”

“No way!?”

“Well, like that!?”

“You must pay the price for killing someone else’s child and wife with your own bodies.”

Demeter’s powerful curse binds them.

Lastly, Hestia’s curse.

“No flame will give you warmth, no [Human] Will not be able to convey that warmth. “I will take away [The sense of warmth] From you.”

“…Wha!?”

“Chu, it’s cold!?”

Okay.

It’s winter again now.

So any insulation is ineffective.

I just feel the cold.

It’s normal to feel both cold and warmth, but now that they can’t feel warmth, all that’s left in their bodies is the bitter cold of winter.

Although spring is slowly coming, it will still be cold.

But it would be nice in the summer.

It may only be a moment before I can think like that.

A curse from the gods of Olympia.

The curse clearly implied one thing.

“””Did you think you could dare enter our territory and commit such a heinous act and still avoid God’s punishment?”””

They punished him for this.

The gods were watching.

And, even as I looked at it, I was cursing myself for not being able to intervene.

Zeus’ threat.

Don’t get involved in this war.

The golden sun must be defeated by me.

But in the end, he failed, and under my provocation, Ares refused Zeus’ orders and confronted me with Hestia and Demeter, but in the end, his strength ran out and he disappeared, leaving only the divine core behind.

And they were resurrected again by Ilias, and they became Ilias’ hands and feet.

Anger focused on Gareth and Gaheris.

In fact, there is only one way for them to become free.

When a person is punished or cursed by the gods, and the token of that curse is engraved on his or her body, an unbearably humiliating situation is created.

Like right now.

Their arms, abdomen, and even heart.

It took away her strength, turned her into a stone woman unable to bear children, and took away her warmth.

These two are cursed.

And the curse of the gods.

“””If any human from Phrygia approaches that thing, the same curse will fall upon it.”””

As a bonus, they were not allowed to access it at all.

Okay, now it’s revenge and there won’t be anyone attacking me.

“This will be the end of the punishment for these two. I hope there are no idiots who try to impose additional personal sanctions beyond this.”

With that, Ares disappeared, and many knights and soldiers were shocked and shook their heads in denial.

What Ares said just now is the same as saying that we are annoyed and that if you impose additional sanctions, we will not let you go.

After Ares disappeared after warning me, only Demeter and Hestia remain who have something to say to me.

In the case of Demeter…

Yes, the time has come to go down the list.

Hestia?

I don’t think there’s anything special.

She’s just looking at me with worried eyes, just like other women who worry about me.

And-

“…”

“Please, Gawain, at least once express your opposition to the punishment given by God.”

She says to Gawain:

I want you to come up with a counterargument to the punishment given by God.

Oppose it.

Humans, Liz and other Phrygian troops, and the gods who are the subjects of Phrygia, not me.

The gods of Olympia punished them for what they had done.

As much as those two have done, as much as they have shed tears of blood in the eyes of many people, they can no longer lift a sword, have children, or feel warmth.

The fact that they are shivering and feeling cold all over is the result of the punishment given to them.

“…This-“

“Those two got back what they had done. Are you dissatisfied?”

“…”

“There was no bloodshed. But let me be clear: if you were satisfied with Clark’s methods, we wouldn’t have come forward either.”

And-

“…Full of minutes Brother-in-law“It’s the perfect price for someone who receives favors from others but doesn’t even know how to thank them.”

I heard something once.

If you can endure a little pain, your whole life can become easier.

However, if you reject even that pain, true pain will come.

-Is it difficult?

-But, if you want to train, endure it.

Okay.

Like what the guy who once treated me like a patero Karelin lift or something said.

-That muscle pain will save you someday.

As I said, in a dungeon where I couldn’t use magic, all I could do was hammer and punch, and even after losing my magic circuit for two years and going home to hell, I was able to survive.

That brief pain.

The conflict between Gawain and I, who couldn’t take it, and Liz’s conflict.

So in the end, the lesser gods step forward.

In the end, Hector also felt a sense of kinship as he looked at Gawain, thinking, “Wow, this is a bit much.”

That’s right, because it probably reminded me of Priam who fucked me.

Gawain, who had rejected her favor that I had offered her, but instead favored her own sisters, was looking at her sisters who had been punished even more by her gods.

“Are you resentful?”

“…I do not know.”

“Yes, keep questioning. Think for yourself what the consequences of your foolish behavior were. You slaughtered countless other children, including your little sisters who were so cute that you couldn’t help but notice them.”

“…I wish I could kill those two right now, but you know why we don’t, Gawain.”

Demeter’s voice did not hide her anger.

Yes, she lost her child.

The child was kidnapped to the underworld by the god of the underworld, and of course it is still ongoing.

Naturally, in matters related to children and children, those two have incurred the wrath of Demeter. Nevertheless, there is one reason why he did not die, the reason why he could not be killed.

It’s none other than me.

“Mikaela, Gabriella, escort those two. They won’t be able to move properly for a while.”

And those two who literally became assholes.

And Gawain follows Michaela and Gabriella as they escort them with a confused expression.

Gawain, not a Phrygian, Not even humanSince they are two angels, they are being taken away without any repercussions.

Of course, I didn’t want to burn my hands, so I just wrapped them in magic and lifted them up.

…

Gawain, he needs time.

Okay.

It just takes time.

Neither he nor I ever wanted this.

Just…

…

It’s just a shame.

And Hestia looks at me and speaks in an organized situation.

“…Let’s just leave it at this point, Clark. I know your good intentions and kindness, but it was frustrating for us to watch you suffer under those burdens all by yourself. Do you know that?”

“…That…”

And Ilias opened his mouth.

“Clarke, whatever you’ve been called in the past,Another [Past]No matter how you live in You are you.“

And Widi also focuses on those words.

Ilias noticed it, and Widi must have noticed it too.

And-

Their eyes turn to me.

They cross each other and are aware of each other only for a moment.

“You don’t have to carry it all on your own. You have just taken your first step in the life of a transcendental person, and you shouldn’t be pressured to say that there are many things you can do. Even if it is with a close friend.”

Ilias continues.

All the advice I need now.

These are stories of her experiences.

“…I cared for humans widely, but I did not accept their stubbornness. Likewise, this is Gawain’s stubbornness. No one can steal it, it is his stubbornness. And, Elizabeth Pantalone, you hope that those two will end for sure. There is.”

“It’s better to just die.”

Is it because he is a knight?

Not being able to hold a sword and not being able to have children are very fatal things, especially for a knight and a woman.

In particular, it is considered a sin for a woman not to have children…

I know.

If a woman cannot give birth, it means that her health is not good, or there is a problem on the part of the man.

As expected, as expected of the Phrygian gods who are fierce in their punishment, they placed a fierce curse on the two who arbitrarily trampled on their territory and were captured, and now those two are worthless as humans.

If you see Liz blushing every time she curses, it’s a terrible curse.

As for me…

It would be like the magic circuit was shattered.

As a bonus EunuchIt has come to an end.

…

When I think about it, it’s such a cruel punishment.

I’m a eunuch!

There really is no punishment better than making a man a eunuch.

Of course, in my case, they would transform me into something that is not human at all and do all the tea-bagging, but these people just gave me that punishment and made me do worse.

Is it true that Jjambap, which has great status, does not go anywhere?

However, considering that they were given the cruelest punishment, and considering that they were only following orders, the damn curse that would last their whole lives would erode them, they gave them an appropriate punishment.

So that he can regret what he has done for the rest of his life and repent for his sins.

“…I hope this helps you become a little more aware of yourself as a transcendent person, Clark. If you’re really having a hard time, don’t think on your own and ask for help from others. Unlike before, now you don’t have to worry alone.”

“…”

“Yeah, now, because I’m constantly watching you.”

At some point, as the fierce battle continued, I cursed at the gods who did not provide any help.

Those swear words.

That resentment, that resentment.

And the growing hurt, the fucking trolling of Canf.

Even denominations that maliciously do not supply and support.

Go catch the devil, you bastards!

Fuck it, but we need to support it!

Uruk was the one that came forward, and although they were the front line, they were far behind us, so they risked their lives to send us supplies. Other than that, in fact, they were procured locally, and I had to dig up the materials myself.

…

Now, I don’t have to worry about it alone.

And this senior tried his best to put his hand on my shoulder with his short stature, but eventually gave up and poked my side and said.

“…There is something in moderation, you damn junior. Why would I break a joint on you while writing an article?”

You mention this again.

If nothing else, she hates me messing with her, just as she can’t stand me messing with my people.

But since he did it right in front of her, it’s natural for Liz to be angry.

Even now, Liz, who is less angry, looks at Lumiera.

But the problem is…

“Now that I think about it, you kicked my man just now, right?”

“You did such a stupid thing, and I got angry because you stuck out your butt and wiped it as soon as you asked for it. Are you dissatisfied, human? Your husband Do you want to see me wipe another man’s ass.”

What? Whose ass am I wiping?

“You have the ability to say things like that, even saying such bullshit things to Clark.”

“Should I call you a pro-scatcher because I’m cleaning up poop? What I’m doing is spreading other people’s poop. I cleaned up your freesia’s poop as a joke, so wouldn’t it be better to call me a pro-scatcher? No, I cleaned a woman’s butt, so is this any better?”

…The point is that this senior is also not good with words at all.

“Wow really.”

Liz was angry.

He looks like he’s about to draw his sword at any moment,

And in my opinion, this senior has [Capacity].

It was just getting annoying so I surrendered to not fight anymore.

I felt it when I was installing the joint, but this lady…

No joke, I blew it up, but I could see that it had the potential for enormous destructive power comparable to that of Tyr.

…

What on earth did they make in Uruk and throw at me?

“This is it. Do you understand?”

“You’re bragging about how old you are. Are you really happy that you’re older, old maid?”

“Fuck you.”

Of course, what Mrs. Lee forgot is that Liz is also quite talkative.

Although Liz usually speaks to her older sister…

What the heck, this older sister is just chattering and it feels like hehe~ so she doesn’t even hit me at all.

So Leeds didn’t do it at all.

…

Well, that’s good.

…

These gods are leaving me with a bitter lesson.

“…”

Looking at Gawain’s blank expression from afar, it feels bitter in many ways.

I didn’t want this, but I had to warn him that this was what would happen if he didn’t accept it.

…

Ha fuck.

It really sucks.

Leaving scars like this is really shitty.

Because it will remain an indelible regret for my friends and colleagues.
