Chapter 23 - CHAPTER 23

-INSIDE THE BLACK GATE-

 

Jinhyuk just entered the Black Gate . It was a cave like dungeon . It was filled with monsters in large quantities . Jinhyuk used his mana detection and sensed the mana of atleast 300 A-Rank beasts and atleast 20 S-Rank beast . Jinhyuk thought of going for detection but he didn't get the chance . His system popped up

 

-Ti-ting

-System has been detected

-The System is transporting the user to a specific location

 

Jinhyuk suddenly felt himself to get thrown away inside a portal . He travelled for 10 seconds before falling to the other side of the portal .

 

-Ti-ting

-You have been transported to the location marked in the system

-Location : Black Dragon's Cave

 

Jinhyuk got confused about his location so he started walking towards inside . He eventually reached a large place which was completely dark . Suddenly , a voice was heard

 

"Welcome , Human"

 

Jinhyuk was startled as the voice was too deep . Jinhyuk said

 

"W-Who are you ?"

 

"I am the master of this cave , The Black Dragon Sylus"

 

"Why did you bring me here ?"

 

"I have some important matters to discuss with you "

 

The room suddenly lit up . Jinhyuk saw that a huge dragon was sitting inside the room . Its body was large enough to cover the entire room . Jinhyuk stood there , he wasn't scared because he couldn't feel any bloodlust from the dragon.

 

"I am a very old being who has existed since the period of Gods"

 

"Gods ?"

 

"That's right . The world you are standing at belongs to the Mortal Realm or 'MidGard' . The Gods are beings who live in the Divine Realm or 'AsGard' "

 

"Are the Gods powerful ?"

 

"They are . In fact , you at your current state is nothing more than a fly in front of them"

 

"I understand"

 

"You are not the only beings aside Gods to reside here"

 

"What does that mean ?"

 

"Aside from your Realm , there are many different realms of beings . There exists the Giants , the Elves , the Dark Elves and the Undead"

 

"What does it have to do with me ?"

 

"Listen to me , around 500 million Years Ago , when the God Age was finally coming to an end , A war started between Gods . The Gods started to make fierce battles and the whole Divine Realm was unstable . The Gods who followed Loki are came to be known as the Lesser Gods and the Gods who followed Odin came to be known as Upper Gods . Just as the war was about to end in Loki's favour , the sudden appearance of a mysterious power among the Upper Gods led to Odin's victory . At that time , a prophecy was made . The prophecy said that 'Few Million Years from now , there will be a person who will become the greatest threat towards the Upper Gods' "

 

"This is quite interesting . But, who is this person ?"

 

"Our believe is that the person mentioned here is You"

 

"Huh !? Why me ?"

 

"Because you are the person who the prophecy mentioned"

 

"So , what do I have to do ?"

 

"I am telling you . The system which you received is a gift from our God Loki . It will help you grow and it eases the problems which comes with getting strong and I was also ordered to send this to you"

 

A box revealed placed on a small pillar infront of the dragon . Jinhyuk was looking at it .

 

-Ti-ting

-[Skill : Eye Of Gluttony (SSS)] activated

 

Jinhyuk tried to appraise the item inside the box but ….

 

-Ti-ting

-ERROR

-The item is much more powerful than your skill to measure

-Unable to find information

 

Jinhyuk experienced this for the first time . His skill was unable to appraise an item

 

"It's useless" said the Sylus

"This item is far more stronger than your skill . You cannot appraise it at your current level "

 

Jinhyuk didn't say a word as he went forward and opened the box . The box contained an eyeball which was safely sealed in a sealing square . As he touched the ball , the system popped up

 

-Ti-ting

-Appraisal Complete

-[Item : Odin's Left Eye (T)] obtained

-[Item info :]

-Odin's Left Eye

-Rank : Transcendental

-The Eye sacrificed by "God Of Gods , Odin" to Mimir's Well.

 

Jinhyuk picked up the eye and as he picked it up the seal on the eye automatically broke and the eye was released . The mana it was releasing was atleast 20 times the mana Jinhyuk currently has .

 

"This much mana ?"

 

"Now you understand ? Gods possesses mana which are far beyond human capacity but you can carry that much mana because you are gonna transcend the limits of everything and become a Transcendental Being "

 

"What will I do with this ?"

 

"Wait , for it to be completely absorbed"

 

After some time , Jinhyuk's system popped up a notification .

 

-Ti-ting

-Odin's Left Eye is completely absorbed

-Do you want to use it ?

-Y/N

 

"Yes" said Jinhyuk as he himself was curious

 

-Ti-ting

-Using Odin's Left Eye

 

Jinhyuk felt a sudden pain in his left eye as he fell on the ground in pain . He screamed for a few minutes before calming down . He was covered in sweat and breathing heavily .

 

-Ti-ting

-Item absorption complete

-You have used [Item : Odin's Left Eye (T)] activated

-You have met the conditions for evolution

Jinhyuk suddenly felt a surge of power within him which cannot be obtained by training or combat . Jinhyuk looked towards the dragon once more

 

"It seems you have evolved"

 

"I have"

 

"I wish to say one thing . Gods cannot be defeated with skills or magic alone . You need martial arts and internal energy to fight on par with Gods"

 

"Martial Arts ? Internal energy ? Where will I find those ?"

 

"Don't worry . Your world has some but they are newbies . I say you should practice from masters"

 

"But where will I find them ?"

 

"You will find them in Murim"

 

"M-Murim ?"

 

"That's right . I am telling the location so listen carefully . 'When the full moon is on top of your head . Go North' . You may now leave"

 

"Weren't you supposed to give me the Location ?"

 

"I told you so , now leave"

 

Jinhyuk didn't understand anything but he still turned back . He didn't knew the way back but he felt that if he goes to the place he was spawned , he can return . He did the same as he went to the place where he first came . He was teleported back to the place where he found the cave . He started to walk towards the gate . He understood that if he wants he could solo clear the Jeju dungeon but he didn't wish to do so . He entered the portal and came to the real world but he was stunned with what he saw . He saw that the sky was Red and the whole Seoul city was on fire .

 

Jinhyuk didn't waste anytime as he took off and headed towards the city . He was feeling angry on himself for leaving the city but now was not the time . He hoped that Seol-ah , Sumi , Deok-gu and Hyunwoo along with the other S-Ranks would possibly save some time .

 

"J-Just hang in a little more , Sis"
