Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 883

Who was the most respected and revered god in the Land of the Gods? Was it Athenae? No. For the longest time, the god that received the most tremendous respect and admiration from all the other gods in the Land of the Gods was the Battle God.

Why was this the case? This was because Athenae did not intervene in the affairs of the Land of the Gods. On the other hand, the Battle God was the only god that could lead all of the gods if and when something happened in their realm. He was a god that could rule all of the gods.

The- the Battle God? Veyron could not bring himself to believe it even after hearing it. The man had identified himself as the Food God. He was the one who said it. So, how could he suddenly become the Battle God?

Are you telling me that the Battle God has given his position to this man called the Food God?

Even Veyron could not believe the thoughts that flashed in his head. The Battle God was a name carried by someone noble, majestic, and grand. But that name was given to a god called the Food God?

At that moment, the Titan of Destruction grabbed the chains that tied its neck with both hands.

[The Ego Chain Sickles usage duration is one minute!]

Shwaaaaaaaaaaa

The Titan of Destruction grabbed the chains and began to control it by force. At the same time, its chest opened, and a giant cannon appeared.

Its all because of you! Bastard!!! Bentley was a petty and small-minded individual down to his very core. Even though his plans had gone wrong, he blamed the Food God.

Dodge!!! Veyron hurriedly shouted.

However, Minhyuk moved faster than Bentley. With the Sword of Aeon in his hands, he immediately narrowed the distance between him and the Titan of Destruction.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The moment Minhyuks first strike landed, the lightning bolt brought forth by Destruction fell upon the Titan of Destruction, forcing it to a standstill. With every swing of Minhyuks sword, a lightning bolt would swiftly fall upon the towering titan.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Bzz, bzz! Crackle, crackle, crackle!

Sparks fell and covered the entire body of the Titan of Destruction, the attacks forcing it to lose its balance and fall on one knee. However, Minhyuk did not stop there. He quickly cast his strongest skill.

Crackle!

...! Veyron groaned when he felt the tremendous power overflow from the sword covered in flames in Minhyuks hand.

A decisive strike.

With this, the battle would end quickly.

Supreme Overlords Technique.

The Supreme Overlords Technique wreaked havoc upon the Titan of Destruction. However, something shocking happened.

Clack

A void circle appeared above the hand that the Titan of Destruction had opened. The void devoured and sucked the raging flames of the Supreme Overlords Technique. Minhyuk was very flustered when he saw this happen.

Is he just going to suck up the Supreme Overlords Technique completely?

But the Titan of Destruction did not stop there. The Titan of Destructions hand, struggling earlier to help keep its balance, suddenly stretched towards Minhyuk.

No way

Minhyuks ominous prediction suddenly became a reality. The blazing flames roared from within the circle. Not long after, the power of the Supreme Overlords Technique that was sucked in and condensed by the titan was shot toward Minhyuk.

[Your HP has dropped below 80%!]

[Your HP has dropped below 70%!]

[Your HP has dropped below 50%!]

[Your HP]

The flames of the Supreme Overlords Technique were intense. It only took an instant for it to burn Minhyuks entire body and force his HP to drop below 10%. After sending the flames of the Supreme Overlords Technique back, the Titan of Destruction also continued to assault Minhyuk. And the force of the attacks? It was almost equivalent to the power of the remaining flames devouring his HP.

The radius might have become smaller, but the power of the attack has grown stronger.

The amount of power packed in that attack was shocking beyond belief. Minhyuk tried his hardest to restore as much HP as possible by eating the ingredients he acquired from the dungeon, but he could not keep up with the speed at which his HP had dropped.

[Your HP has dropped below 10%!]

[God that Never Backs Down.]

[You are the candidate for being the God above all of the Gods. You will have all of the gods lying prostrate under your feet!]

[Your HP and MP have recovered by 50%. Your stats will increase by +4% while your skill cooldown and MP consumption will decrease by 10%.]

However, the flames of the Supreme Overlords Technique continued to devour and gnaw at Minhyuks HP.

[Your HP has dropped below 13%!]

[Your entire body has been burned! A strange and uncomfortable feeling wraps around your whole being!]

Although Minhyuk could not exactly feel the burning pain, there was this strange and unpleasant feeling that wrapped around his entire body.

Ugh Minhyuk groaned as his entire body grew scorched and burned.

However, the biggest problem was not that. It was the fact that the Titans were not living beings.

Its tough for me to recover from my injuries.

Minhyuk was hailed as an inexhaustible damage-dealing bomber because of the Slaughterers Armors Slaughterer Absorption skill. This skill allowed him to absorb his enemies blood after he attacked them to restore his HP. However, that was impossible now. In other words, Minhyuk had lost much of his recovery ability.

Thud

To make matters worse, the Ego Chain Sickles usage duration had already ended. The chain sickle slowly fell to the ground and disappeared back into his inventory.

Bentley sneered as he looked at Minhyuks scorched body. This guy is made from the skin and bones of the dragons living in the Land of the Gods. Nothing can cut through it.

That was true. The Titan of Destruction had not suffered much damage even after being bathed by the rain of bloody lightning strikes.

And its destructive power is enough to punch quite a few gods to their deaths.

Minhyuks mind immediately whirred, his thoughts running to find a solution as he listened to Bentley bragging around. I received a special privilege. I know I should take advantage of this special privilege and use it. But will it work?

Then, another thought flashed in his head: Just like Bentley said, the Titan of Destruction is really tough. Its durability has only fallen by 3% despite my attacks. It might just be too hard to destroy.

And that was with Destruction equipped too. If it was normal, the combination of the Sword of Absolute Death and Minhyuks various skills should have already reduced its durability as much as possible. The only disadvantage of the Titan of Destruction, which was currently on par with Minhyuk's strength, was that it could not be repaired.

At that moment, Minhyuk felt Veyron struggle to raise his body despite his bones and flesh being crushed and beaten by the fists of the titan earlier. Minhyuk shook his head lightly. It was a signal asking Veyron not to enter the battlefield.

Veyrons mouth twitched. He looked like he wanted to say something. However, he closed his mouth in the end. With how I am right now I will only become a drag.

Indeed, Veyron could not be much help with his current state. All he could do was talk. So, he said, In the future, I will become a hero.

Veyron was a hero who had sacrificed himself for the good of many. However, he was far too weak now.

If I became a hero with the state I am in right now, then wouldnt that mean you can also be a hero?

... Minhyuk turned to look at the hero, his heart thumping wildly in his chest. However, it was not only those words that made his heart pound. The notifications also contributed a lot to this feeling.

[The most significant and mightiest hero is looking at another hero.]

[Perhaps, today, your name will be marked in history as the greatest hero.]

Athenae had a set system. However, it was a free game in which new scenarios could pop up based on the actions of the NPCs inside it. This was what made Athenae fun and exciting to play.

Then, lets try it. Shall we? Minhyuk quickly organized his plan of action.

The Food God can never be a hero. Bentley gritted his teeth. He is nothing but a bug! He is the weakest and most trivial god in existence!

God of Dungeons Evas even said he was nothing but a god that only liked eating. And, of course, that was what Bentley believed in. As someone who believed in those words, hearing that a god like that would be named a hero was utterly preposterous.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Small cannons appeared all over the Titan of Destruction's body and fired several dozens of missiles at Minhyuk.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Minhyuk quickly activated Absolute Defense and sent the missiles flying back. At the same time, he looked at the enemy with eyes glinting sharply like a beast as he triggered the Sword of Frenzy and shot it toward its towering body. And the place that he was aiming at? It was none other than the knee joint connecting its legs from the rest of its body.

Baaaaaaaaaaaang

A loud explosion bloomed as the Sword of Frenzy landed straight on the titans knee joint. At the same time, the titans gigantic greatsword swung down on Minhyuks head.

Baaaaaaaaaang!

However, the effects of the Absolute Defense protected Minhyuk from this devastating blow.

Sword of Absolute Death.

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

The first lightning bolt fell from the sky and hit the Titan of Destruction.

Bzzt! Crackle!

...! Bentleys eyes grew wide from shock. The lightning strike devoured 5% of the Titan of Destructions HP. This meant the titan received a shockingly vast amount of damage just by that one strike alone.

Then, hundreds of lightning bolts rained down upon the Titan of Destruction.

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

However, the titan remained persistent. It used its wicked and vicious hands to grab Minhyuk by the collar and prevent him from running away.

Intangible Sword.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaa!

Minhyuk continued to trigger his skills despite being latched onto by the towering titan. Like that, a powerful force that ignored the enemys defenses wreaked havoc upon the Titan of Destruction.

[The Titans Durability has dropped below 85%!]

[The Titans Durability has dropped below 84%!]

[The Titans Durability has dropped below 83%!]

Even if the Titan of Destructions defenses were ignored by Minhyuks skill, its durability, which rivaled several gods combined, was still extremely high.

What a joke! This titan would never break!

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Bentley, who was completely overcome by anger, punched Minhyuk in the head several times. He had completely forgotten that Minhyuk was being protected by his Absolute Defense skill and would not be harmed at all. Only after venting a few times did Bentley regain his senses.

...

Anyway, he had already won this battle. He no longer needed to stand at the forefront. However, even if he could not do any damage, Bentley could still grab on to Minhyuks collars and do this. So, what did he do? Of course, he threw Minhyuk away.

The Food God can never be a hero. A trashy, weak, and stupid god cannot be a hero. Only you can become a hero, Bentley said, his gaze turning to Veyron. Bentley no longer wanted to look bad in front of the hero he admired and respected the most, so he said those words.

After throwing Minhyuk away, Bentley saw that he had run somewhere hurriedly. However, he did not mind it. This battle has already ended. He pulled out a switch and pressed the red button on it.

Clack!

At the same time, the Titans scattered all over the place immediately jumped up and ran to where Veyron was. The approaching Titans soon caused a massive explosion.

Baaaaaaaaaang!

The explosion was as powerful as the explosion caused by a nuclear bomb and engulfed hundreds of meters, killing many celestial dwellers in the process. Then, not long after, several explosions erupted one after another.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Veyron, who saw the explosions erupt all over the battlefield, turned to look at Bentley. Even though he knew that he was hailed as a hero, it was something that he could not accept so easily. He felt humiliated, knowing he was still lacking, yet was given such a great and noble title. However, even though he was ashamed, there was one thing that he was sure of. He could tell this god in front of him about the hero he had always envisioned.

Foolish god.

...

Do heroes necessarily have to be strong?

...

Bentley was rendered mute by the question. A hero was not hailed a hero just because they were great, mighty, or strong. Amidst the explosions, Bentley felt regret for suddenly intruding in the dungeon for a brief moment.

***

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The Titans exploded one after another, sweeping everything and anything in their path. Veyron looked up at the sky as the flames raged and rose all over the battlefield.

Im sorry.

He and the celestial dwellers who fought with him were said to have been recorded as heroes. However, now they were forced to die without achieving any result.

I will forever remember your names.

Relson, Floe, Carro, Edben, Heidio. They were nothing but mere celestial dwellers. But if they said they were true heroes, they were heroes.

And amidst the towering explosions, another hero had not yet given up and continued running to save them. Even after a blast swept him away, he would jump back on his feet and continue running.

Where was he going? The place that he was fighting so hard to reach was extraordinary. It was where one of the divine weapons, a weapon resembling a titan, was located. This divine weapon was the most potent weapon created by countless production-class gods.

The Gods of Farming, Blacksmiths, Sculptures, Cooking, Sewing, Paintings, Bards, and many other weaker gods were criticized and ignored by the other gods for not being able to protect the Land of the Gods, gathered together to create this divine weapon called Bless.

The condition to operate Bless was simple: having an extremely high DEX. DEX represented the production class individuals. However, the gods had made sure to set the DEX requirement very high.

This was so no other god could operate Bless without their explicit consent. Bless could only be operated when three or more production class gods gathered together. For that reason, Bless had remained stagnant and slumbering for thousands of years.

Veyron, who watched Minhyuk place his hands on Bless, shook his head. Its impossible. One production class god is not enough to operate Bless.

Baaaaaaaaaang!

Then, at that moment, a titan exploded beside Veyron, sweeping and sending him flying away. He was unable to see what happened next to Minhyuk. After all, he no longer had the time or leisure to look after; he was sent flying towards the walls of the cliffs.

He was about to get slammed into the walls of the cliffs, but the thought running through Veyrons head was, Well, didnt he say that I was also able to make the impossible possible?

According to what the Food God said, he, together with the 350,000 celestial dwellers, was able to tie down the hundreds of titans in this place for four days and become heroes of the Land of the Gods.

...

As he looked at the walls of the cliffs that he was gradually approaching, he could not help but wonder if it was foolish of him to think that it was completely impossible.

Woosh

But at that moment, something cold and huge snatched Veyron out of the air.

Crack, crack, crack, crack

Then, with one hand hanging on the cliff, the huge being slowly climbed down.

Booooooom

Once they completely landed on the ground, whatever caught Veyron slowly placed him down. At that same time, a series of notifications rang in the man's ears as he was manipulating this towering weapon.

[You have exceeded 60% of the Food Gods Achievement Rate!]

[You have successfully operated Divine Weapon Bless.]

[Divine Weapon Bless has been left unattended for an extended period. You can only operate Bless for one minute!]

[Once the duration is over, Bless will be destroyed!]

[You are the greatest hero chosen by another great hero, Veyron!]

[By achieving more than 60% of the Food Gods Achievement Rate, your achievements will be broadcasted to all of the gods residing in the Land of the Gods.]

[The God that Loves to Eat.]

[The God that many of the Gods laughed, jeered, and mocked.]

[This God has become the master of Divine Weapon Bless.]
