Gourmet Gaming-Chapter 1367

Chapter 1367

The only being who could wield the Heart Sword, Conir, had constantly worked hard to not only master the swordsmanship but also create its final chapter. After countless days of hard work and effort, he was able to successfully create the final chapter and the end of the Heart Sword, the Ten Thousand Li Sword, and the Thousand Li Shifting Sword.

Surprisingly enough, Minhyuk could borrow the power of Conir’s Ten Thousand Li Sword whenever he needed help. That was not the end of it. One day, Conir declared to the people gathered in the conference room.

–Conir! Conir made a better Ten Thousand Li Sword!

Conir was a pure and innocent young boy. And he wanted his version of the Ten Thousand Li Sword to protect everyone here.

–When someone here is in grave danger, Conir can give Conir’s recognition and allow you to use my Ten Thousand Li Sword! So, just trust me! Ehem!

Back then, Loyna smiled fondly at the young boy Conir’s confident and lively appearance.

[Ten Thousand Li Sword.]

[The Ten Thousand Li Sword will cut down all of your enemies on the spot and inflict an additional 15% damage regardless of where you are.]

[Injuries inflicted by the Ten Thousand Li Sword cannot be healed.]

Anas snorted. All of the troops that they brought to invade the Land of the Gods had been cut down.

‘If the damage is this much, then...’

Many of Heaven’s soldiers turned into ashes that disappeared with the wind. The black ashes that fluttered in the sky above them were proof of how strong the power that cut them down was.

That was not the end of their problems. Loyna, who was freed from Anas’ hold, hurriedly ran to where Athenae was.

[Absolute Saintess’ Barrier.]

A red barrier was created around Athenae and Loyna, protecting them from harm. Anas swung his sword at the barrier dozens of times, but...

[The barrier cannot be broken.]

[The barrier cannot be broken.]

The reason Anas was able to melt Athenae’s Barrier was because he used the parchment created with the archangels’ hearts and souls. Still, barriers created by Absolute God-level and Absolute Demigod-level individuals could not be broken so easily.

[The Absolute Saintess’ Barrier will remain in effect for 48 hours.]

At the end of the day, a barrier was a type of power that had its obvious shortcomings and disadvantages.

Anyone staying within the confines of the barrier could not do anything to anyone outside of the barrier. If they tried to gather their holy power, mana, or even try to trigger an attack, then the barrier would be lifted. In other words, it was only a matter of time. They would eventually face the inevitable outcome.

Anas slumped down, his back resting against the barrier. He had a relaxed expression on his face as he rested his arms on his knees. He looked at the three hundred flustered and distressed elites of Heaven and said, “Go and catch the gods.”

Anas could absorb the divine power of the gods whom he had slain.

“You can just stay there and watch the gods die one after another.” Anas sneered at the two women looking at him in disgust.

***

Grand General Jenel moved swiftly with the Heavenly Commanders to respond to the sudden outbreak of war. The gods were also moving swiftly to protect the Absolute Gods after learning of the situation.

They had seen the angels descend from the sky. But in a blink, the charging angels were cut down after a mysterious sound rang in their ears and their blood dyed the ground red.

This was their chance! Grand General Jenel and the Heavenly Commanders responded swiftly and appropriately to the situation.

‘I don’t know what kind of power that was.’

What they knew was that their enemies were greatly weakened after that power cut them down. Even more shocking was that the ordinary angels could not endure the strength of that power and succumbed to their deaths. It was welcome news nonetheless.

Flap!

Flap, flap!

Flap, flap, flap!

Even so, the fact that the angels continued to descend with their white wings flapping behind them from the opening in the sky remained unchanged.

‘I did not expect that they would also make use of the beasts in Heaven.’

“Keuhaaaack!”

“Kihiiiiiick!”

Monsters that were known to be difficult to control in Heaven were running rampant in the Land of the Gods. Among them were hundreds of fifty-meter-long gigantic snakes that resembled the legendary Ouroboros.

[Venomous Anaconda. Level 954.]

The snakes charged forward and attacked the troops of the Heavenly Army. They were so strong that the troops of the Land of the Gods’ Heavenly Army were barely able to cut them down. In fact, they were only able to kill them after a few of the gods joined their ranks. Still, that was not the biggest of their problems.

They saw an archangel flying straight toward the conference room. It was none other than Michael, the one who was said to be the strongest among all of the archangels. That was not all. He was also the commander leading all of Heaven's army.

Clank!

The commander and archangel, Archangel Army Commander Michael, gently pulled out his sword from the scabbard, revealing the sharp and glinting blade.

[Michael’s Sword.]

Archangel Army Commander Michael’s current level was just a bit over Level 1,500. The worst part was that he was in a state where he had received all of the buffs that he could receive for the day.

[Those who witness Michael’s Sword will feel a heavy weight weighing down on them.]

Grand General Jenel’s face grew ugly as he and the troops of the Heavenly Army felt the weight of their weapons grow five times heavier than normal.

Thud!

Thuuuud!

Swords generally weigh around five to seven kilograms. With their weight growing five times more than usual, it was only natural for the troops to be unable to hold on to their weapons. Most of the soldiers found themselves unable to use their weapons.

But the moment the gods tried to respond and stage a counterattack, a spear shot down from the sky.

Crackle, crackle!

The sparks that were dancing on the surface of the spear soon exploded in a flash of light.

Flash!

[The Godslayer’s Spear has started to suppress all of the divine power in the area!]

Sizzle!

Most of the beings in the Land of the Gods depended on their divine power. This was especially the case for the gods. For them, divine power was a crucial aspect of their lives. It was no different from the relationship between priests and holy power.

“Damn it!”

Jenel’s face grew even uglier.

‘How long have these bastards been preparing?!’

At that moment, tens of thousands of golden chains shot down from the sky. The chains moved swiftly and bound every one of the gods.

Jenel hurriedly flew up. However, the sight that greeted him was devastating. He saw both the gods and the troops of the Heavenly Army fall helplessly like leaves falling in autumn.

Surprisingly enough, Jenel was able to endure the heavy weight of his sword despite it being five times heavier than normal. He swung the heavy sword and cut down the Venomous Anaconda that opened its mouth to devour him. The single cut had split the anaconda in half. Leaving behind the anaconda, Jenel moved to deal with the monsters from Heaven.

Archangel Michael just looked at Jenel nonchalantly.

Archangel Michael was the symbol of the angels’ martial prowess and military might. The same was true for Jenel, who led and still led the troops of the Heavenly Army in the Land of the Gods, and he had held this position for a very long time.

Floating in the air, Jenel flew forward. Michael just looked away from him and directed his gaze somewhere else. The place that he was looking at was none other than the place where the evacuees were taking refuge, the place where the tens of millions of celestial dwellers were currently.

An overwhelming holy power began to gather at the tip of Michael’s already drawn sword. He did not hesitate at all. He shot the holy power toward the innocent celestial dwellers.

Boom!

If that holy power fell upon the tens of millions of celestial dwellers, they would die. That was just how strong and powerful Archangel Michael’s power was.

Jenel hurriedly changed directions.

‘Divine Steps.’

Using the god’s foot technique, he jumped in the air and ran to where the evacuees were. Jenel used all of his divine power to block the holy power that was shooting toward the celestial dwellers.

Rumble!

Jenel gritted his teeth, struggling to stop the overwhelming force that was pushing him back. The light of the holy power surged, threatening to swallow Jenel. But...

Shwaaaaaa!

Jenel sighed in relief when the stream of light slowly dissipated. However, smoke could be seen rising from his armor, and even the bits and pieces of his flesh that were visible were charred. It was as if he had been burned badly.

“How naive.”

The voice rang right next to Jenel’s ears. Of course, Jenel knew that this would happen. He knew that he would be left in danger the moment he tried to block Michael’s power.

‘Were angels truly good? No. Perhaps they are more evil than the devil himself,’ Jenel thought.

Clank!

The Angel’s Shackle, a binding that could not be easily removed, bound Jenel tightly. Jenel was rendered helpless and could only fall to the ground.

Thud!

The pain from the impact left Jenel groaning. Archangel Michael looked at him indifferently, leaving him in an unsightly position, and flew straight toward the conference room.

Not long after, the Absolute Gods, including the God of Cooking and the God of Judgment, were sent flying out of the conference room. Walking out right after them was the commander of the archangels, Gabriel.

Carrying her Gabriel’s Judgment Spear, which was covered in light, Gabriel fought a fierce battle against Belson. If it were just Gabriel, then Belson would be fine. The problem was that all the archangels were also pursuing him.

Surprisingly, Belson was demonstrating his remarkable endurance and military prowess. He was even able to cut off one of Raphael’s arms.

“Crazy...”

“How can he do this...? He has already lost all of the Battle God’s powers...”

At this moment, they realized the reason why the Battle God was the core figure of the Land of the Gods. Nonetheless, Belson was growing exhausted by the second. He was also suffering from various degrees of injuries. In the end, Gabriel’s spear pierced through his shoulder, Michael’s sword pierced through his chest, and Raphael’s spear stabbed his flanks.

“Urk...” Belson vomited a mouthful of blood after the three archangels stabbed him.

“What should we do with this guy?” Raphael asked.

They were not going to kill the gods.

The gods had unique and inherent abilities. It was just like how the Sword God could handle swords and how the God of Cooking could create dishes. It was for this reason that they had chosen not to kill the gods and just bind them.

The archangels intended to take away their inherent abilities and take them for themselves. They sought to follow the path of rulers who had complete control over the world.

“We have to kill him,” Gabriel answered without any hesitation. “He’s too dangerous.”

“Indeed,” Raphael murmured as he pulled his spear roughly.

Spurt!

Belson naturally had a high regeneration speed. However, the speed at which his body healed and regenerated was a tad bit slower than the speed at which they stabbed him.

“Keuhaaaack!”

Jenel’s expression distorted when he saw Belson screaming wretchedly.

“No...”

Although he no longer served Belson, he was still his commander and lord once. Jenel held deep affection for the man. Seeing him suffering like this left a bitter taste in his mouth and a burning rage in his chest.

Jenel looked away. Alas, what greeted him was the sight of Anas laughing wildly as he enjoyed Belson’s torment from within the broken walls of Athenae’s audience hall.

Gabriel held the shaft of her spear and pulled it up, dragging the previous generation Battle God Belson’s body along. She looked arrogantly at Belson, who was dangling helplessly from the tip of her spear.

“Do you still look down on me? Huh?”

This was proof that Gabriel had an inferiority complex toward Belson.

Belson, with the last of his strength, opened his mouth and said, “F*cking b*tch...”

“...”

Gabriel frowned as she threw the spear and the previous generation Battle God into the air. At the same time, dozens of Venomous Anacondas floating in the sky above them rushed toward Belson with their mouths wide open.

“Kiheeeeeeck!”

“Kyahaaaaaack!”

Jenel’s expression grew even more distorted as a sense of helplessness devoured him. But then...

Fwooosh!

A chain shot forward and wrapped around Belson’s ankle, dragging him away while a blazing firestorm burst out and burned the dozens of Venomous Anacondas aiming for him.

Crackle!

[The God Leading All of the Armies has entered the Land of the Gods.]

Everyone turned to look at him. With his white cape fluttering behind him and a pair of winged shoes, Minhyuk stood above everyone, his gaze cold as he looked at the entire land beneath him.

Jenel did not carry any resentment for Minhyuk. He could tell that Heaven had been preparing for this for a very long time. Even if he knew this would happen, he would not be able to stop it. In fact, he did not even hold a glimmer of hope despite the appearance of his lord.

There was no way that Minhyuk could deal with an opponent that Belson could not deal with. Especially now that the gods, the Absolute Gods, and the troops of the Heavenly Army are incapacitated and neutralized by Anas, the archangels and their millions of troops.

“You can’t do anything.” Gabriel sneered. For some reason, the stump where her arm used to be seemed to throb when she saw this man. It was probably because she lost that arm to this mere foreigner.

“We’ve caught them all.”

Minhyuk’s gaze swept over the Absolute Gods and Grand General Jenel. He also saw the trembling Athenae being hugged by Loyna from inside the barrier that the Absolute Saintess had created.

“Is it you?! Are you the Battle God? What an amazing battle intent!”

[Divine Transcendental Anas. Level 1,612.]

Minhyuk’s gaze collided with Anas's.

“So what?! The Land of the Gods is already doomed!” Anas mocked, his lips twisted into a smirk.

Minhyuk just smiled faintly at him. “It must be nice being a dumb retard, huh?”

“...?”

Anas was rendered speechless by Minhyuk’s careless yet sharp curse. However, he knew that it was nothing more than a bluff. After all, everything in the Land of the Gods had been neutralized and incapacitated. There was nothing that he could do with just him alone.

“Now, now. Let me show you a magic trick.”

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

“It’s a magic trick where everyone except you bastards will disappear. Watch closely.” Minhyuk took out a handkerchief and covered his left hand. “One... two...”

They just stared at Minhyuk in confusion.

“Three.”

Then, Minhyuk removed the handkerchief and showed his left hand with its middle finger raised toward Anas.

“You... You f*cking...”

His blatant mockery left both the archangels and Anas furious. But then, Anas saw a shadow cover the entire world. The shadow was cast by a gigantic hat that seemed to cover every nook and cranny of this world.

[Hermes’ World Pilfering.]

[Warning.]

[Warning.]

[This is the power of an OIympus God.]

[Hermes only steals what he wants to steal from the world.]

[What Hermes wants to steal are the Celestial Dwellers and all of the gods in the Land of the Gods.]

The huge hat covered the entire Land of the Gods and plunged the entire world into darkness. When the hat had shrunk back to its original size and the darkness that covered the world had disappeared...

[Hermes has stolen what he wants from the Land of the Gods.]

Hermes put the hat back on his head.

Anas, who was leaning on the barrier, fell to the ground. Athenae and Loyna had completely disappeared from behind him. That was not all. The Absolute Gods, the gods, Jenel, the Heavenly Army, the celestial dwellers, everyone except for those associated with Heaven and the archangels, had disappeared.
