Being a God is Fun

Theo entered his throne room, watching other gods. He could send messages to them anytime and frankly, observing their reactions was amusing. However, Theo enjoyed watching Cha Yeon Woo face challenges the most. Without realizing it, he had spent a long time in Tartarus, and during this period, it seemed a lot had happened. Cha Yeon Woo had infiltrated the Red Dragon and found it quite entertaining. After a long time, Theo decided to observe Cha Yeon Woo again.

Cha Yeon Woo had recently started learning martial arts and was anticipating the battle between the Azure Clan and the Red Dragon Clan that would take place tonight. He had somewhat adapted to the power of the Black King. He thought about the god he had made a pact with, who hadn't spoken to him for a long time, but suddenly a message arrived.

[Antares greets you]

Cha Yeon Woo didn't expect to see the long-absent god today, but now that he appeared, it meant something was going to happen.

Cha Yeon Woo: Greetings to you too, Antares. You haven't appeared for a long time. Is there something I can help with?

[Antares is pleased and approves of you]

[Message: Guess where I was. You probably won't be able to, but if you do, I will give you very important information.]

Cha Yeon Woo was surprised: Is it related to my brother?

[Message: It's about both you and your brother. I think you'll be happy.]

Cha Yeon Woo pondered where this god could be.

Cha Yeon Woo: Can you give me a clue?

[Message: I'll give you two clues: one, the place is related to Olympus; two, it's connected to your power.]

Theo was deliberately giving obvious clues to motivate Cha Yeon Woo.

Cha Yeon Woo: This place is related to Olympus and one of my powers is commanding souls, which means it's related to Hades. Hades rules Tartarus and underworld, so I figured it out: Tartarus.

[Message: Yes, it was obvious. I gave you these clues on purpose because I want to have fun too.]

[Message: Alright, a promise is a promise. I'll tell you. Your are an uncle, Cha Jeong Woo has a daughter.]

Cha Yeon Woo checked if what he saw was true, then stammered.

Cha Yeon Woo: Are you serious, Antares? Am I really an uncle?

[Message: Yes, but she is very sick, and I can tell you where she is.]

[Message: I have a chance to cure her illness for you, but I have other conditions. She has no more than three years left to live.]

Cha Yeon Woo panicked but didn't show it. He was still in shock from the reality of being an uncle.

Cha Yeon Woo: What do you want, God? Tell me, and I'll give you everything.

[Message: As expected from you, I see you've reached the third stage of dragon transformation. First, congratulations.]

[Message: What I want is a philosopher's stone. Yours is incomplete now, but you will complete it later. That witch, Viere Dune, has one. Give me that stone, and I will cure your niece with a single touch.]

Cha Yeon Woo: That damn witch? Don't worry, Antares, I will comply with your request. Please keep your word.

[Message: I never go back on my word. When you meet the girl, I will come down to your stage and heal her. Tell that dark elf not to attack me, or I will kill her.]

Cha Yeon Woo: Thank you, my god. I swear I will take my revenge in the most painful way and plunge the tower into chaos.

[Message: Let chaos reign in the tower. See you later.]

Then Antares left Cha Yeon Woo alone. Theo teleported to Olympus without delay. When everyone saw him, their eyes widened, and they fled in different directions. Those who welcomed him were Hermes, Athena, and Ares.

Athena: Antares, what a surprise. What brings you to Olympus?

Antares (Theo): Ah, don't worry. I'm just here to visit my uncle Poseidon. I need to talk to him.

Hermes: We have only one wish: don't blow this place up. That's our only wish.

Ares: Normally, I would call for war, but fighting with a walking bomb like you would be madness.

Antares: Good thinking, Ares. At least you are smart enough to survive. Take me to your uncle.

Hermes invited Theo to ride his snake.

Antares: Nice vehicle. So, how's the treasure-guarding job going? I know you're watching Cha Yeon Woo. I won't interfere with you making him your disciple, but don't speak so shamelessly next time.

Hermes: Sorry, that was my fault.

Antares: No problem as long as you know.

Thus, Theo went to Poseidon. Poseidon rose from his throne and came to Theo, shaking his hand.

Theo: Ah, Poseidon, I hope my sudden visit hasn't disturbed you.

Poseidon: No, it's fine. What do I owe the pleasure of your visit?

Theo: I'm here for your trident. If you give it to me, I'll give you a gift.

Poseidon was really angry at being asked to give away a divine weapon. Theo seemed to understand.

Theo: It might be a bit shameless, but let me read your mind and create an exact copy of the trident. That's the best solution.

Poseidon: I can allow that, as long as you can give something in return.

Theo: I'll give you something you'll like.

Then Theo found the trident in Poseidon's memory and created something even stronger but considered equivalent by the tower.

Theo: Thank you. Here's your gift.

Then Theo threw a golden apple to Poseidon. Just as Poseidon was about to curse, he saw the explanation.

[Item Name: Adam's Apple]

[Value: Immeasurable]

[Description: Permanently increases sacred energy by a large amount. This item can only be used once.]

When Poseidon saw this, he thanked Theo. Without saying anything, Theo disappeared. Now the Black King's set could be completed. Theo returned to his palace and watched Cha Yeon Woo, who was currently learning the Eight Extreme Fists from the Battle King. Theo observed them.

After learning, the Battle King left and returned with five men. While Cha Yeon Woo was observing, a message arrived.

[Message: This old man didn't just kidnap one of them. I know his goal. I hope you win, and with the blessing I gave you, you are now physically almost identical to them. You will adapt quickly.]

Cha Yeon Woo knew Antares was right. Physically, they had to surpass them. Now he had learned martial arts, and he was learning very quickly. He could grasp everything he read so fast, understanding things with just one reading. His stats were equal to those on the 50th floor.

As Theo said, they were all defeated by Cha Yeon Woo. But the last man caused trouble because Cha Yeon Woo didn't know his focal points. He used the Pain Augmenter for Shron. At first, Cha Yeon Woo's focal points were on his face, but slowly he did the same, and now Theo was slowly approaching Shron's level.

In the middle of the fight, Shron yelled: Damn it, man, how can you learn so fast? This is illogical, you cursed bastard!

Cha Yeon Woo pretended to stab his sword into stomach but changed direction halfway and pierced Shron's throat.

Cha Yeon Woo performed a pentakill.

The Battle King, watching from the side, never thought he would see such a scene in his life.

martial King: You are a monster, as they said. How can you learn so fast? I don't understand. Are you an apostle of a god?

Cha Yeon Woo: No, master. I just made a pact with a god, and that god gave me his blessing.

Battle King: Which god? Who is it?

Cha Yeon Woo: His name is Antares. He is watching us now.

[Message: Tell your master I can meet him if he wants.]

Cha Yeon Woo: Master, if you wish, he can come down now. What do you think?

The Battle King was thoughtful. It was the first time he heard that a god could come down according to their wish, and he was definitely curious.

Battle King: If so, let him come. I'd like to see the god you made a pact with.

With that, dark clouds appeared in the sky, then a lightning bolt struck right in front of the Martial King, and a man emerged from it. As soon as he appeared, his aura suppressed everyone there, including the Martial King.

Theo: Hohohoho, so you are the Martial King. Hmm, not bad.

Martial King: Thank you. Could you tell me what kind of god you are?

Theo: I am Theo Gremory. My real name is Antares. I am known as the god of destruction and creation or the absolute.

Upon hearing this, the Martial King's eyes widened. These names were too extreme. Destruction and creation? This was too much.

Edora was worried about the arrival of the god, while Phante was seeing someone this powerful for the first time.

Battle King: You have given my student your blessing. Thank you.

Theo: No problem. I have high expectations from Cain.

Cha Yeon Woo: You flatter me.

Theo: Don't worry, you have satisfied me so far. Martial King, don't hesitate to teach Cain. I also have an offer for you.

The Battle King became serious: What is the offer?

Theo: I want Cain to kill all the nobles in the Blood Country. So, I want you to help him. In return, I'll give you something that suits you.

Then Theo took out the Nemean Cestus from his inventory. These gloves were Hercules' gloves from God of War 3 even more powerful.

The Martial King felt the power of these gloves. Edora had never seen such a valuable item before.

The Martial King examined the gloves.

Martial King: Alright, I accept. I will help Cha Yeon Woo against the Blood Country and train him to the best of my ability.

Then Theo gave him a different blessing.

[A blessing has been given to the Battle King]

[Body returns to its prime state]

[All stats increased by 100]

[50,000 Karma given]

Theo: The blessing I gave you is ideal for you.

Now your body is the same age as your daughter and son, and you can spend more time with them.

The Martial King couldn't find words to say because his body had returned to his youth and his power had increased. Maybe now he had enough strength to face All For One.

Theo seemed to understand: Please don't challenge him now. It's not the right time. He is currently dealing with the problem I created on the 30th floor. Please, do whatever you want after the Blood Country.

With this, the Martial King thanked Theo and handed over the gloves.

Cha Yeon Woo: Thank you for everything you did.

Theo: No problem. And let me ask you something: doesn't that thing below work?

Cha Yeon Woo understood what he meant.

Cha Yeon Woo: Please, don't tease me.

Theo whispered in Cha Yeon Woo's ear.

Theo: Edora loves you. Don't break her heart. How long will you have trust issues?

Then Theo continued to the 98th floor after placing the tattoo on the Battle King.

The Martial King felt this happy for the first time. His body had regressed in age, and he became stronger. Now he had more time.

Edora immediately went to Cha Yeon Woo.

Edora: Are you okay, Ereboni?

Cain: I'm fine. That god is different from the others. Although our relationship is based on mutual benefits, he gave me the best help. Now he rejuvenated my master and is helping me. What more could I ask for?

Then Phante went to his father, and they looked very much alike.

Phante: Dad, is it really you? Since when have you been this handsome?

The Martial King hit Phante on the head.

Martial King: I've always been like this; you just noticed now.

Then the Martial King examined the gloves in his hand and joined Cha Yeon Woo, realizing that this god was different from the others.

(give me your thought about chapter and dont forget to send power stones)
