The beautiful yellow trajectory flew through the floating castle. The structure of the floating castle was simpler than I thought. Columns made of sturdy crystals were visible on both sides. In rare cases, stone statues were lined up.

I looked to the left and right warily, but there seemed to be nothing particularly special. I flew toward the huge light inside. After a while, I reached the end of the passage and couldn’t help frowning at the dazzling light. Then a voice was heard in the air.

[You came, Choi Chuntaek.]

I turned my head in the direction of the voice. The familiar hills and trees of Hesperides were all around me. In the air, there was a small island where spring water was pouring onto the golden apple tree. Next to the tree was the man who took over Jupiter’s body.

[Lee Geonmyeong.]

I slowly floated into the air and faced him at a distance. Last time, I was struck because I didn’t know anything. Now I knew his identity and wouldn’t be fooled easily.

[I should’ve killed you at that time. You are good at interfering with my great work. By the way, what are you doing here? You aren’t going to say something ridiculous like you’re here to kill me, right? It seems that you’ve just gained divinity. Surely you aren’t reckless enough to attack me, who is an original god?]

Lee Geonmyeong sneered like it was ridiculous. I ignored Lee Geonmyeong’s words and took a posture. At the same time, I swung my legs horizontally at the same speed as the wind, sending hundreds of sharp wind blades and awls forward. Lee Geonmyeong made an amazed expression as he saw the wind coming from all directions.

[The power of the wind! I definitely took it away. How can you create a stronger wind than last time?]

[Think about it while getting hit. Additionally, I want you to take that mask off.]

There were successive explosions and a roar like the space was being torn. Lee Geonmyeong didn’t move and was swept up in the torrent that seemed like a natural disaster. Still, I didn’t think I would defeat him with this much.

[Disgraceful...]

The dust scattered and it was revealed that Lee Geonmyeong had wrapped himself in a shield. He glared at me angrily, his face red. The majestic light covering his face slowly disappeared. Finally, the face of Lee Geonmyeong was revealed.

[I don’t know how you’ve regained the power of the wind, but you are really tenacious. I will take the life that I couldn’t get at that time.]

Lee Geonmyeong had cold eyes as he snapped his fingers and fired ten ice picks. The ice picks didn’t stop there. One split into dozens and instantly filled the sky. There was a terrifying chill like an ice dragon was approaching me.

[......!]

I quickly summoned Solar Phoenix and sent it at the incoming ice dragon. The two of them collided and a tremendous amount of water vapor appeared, turning into fog that obscured the field of view. It wasn’t visible in detail, but there were bursts of light and rumbling sounds as the blue ice dragon and scarlet firebird fought fiercely. Surprisingly, the two monsters had equal strength.

[Hoh. It is the same as the dragon I created with the power of snow. Did the sun elemental and phoenix become one to generate such power? Interesting.]

Soon after, rain poured down from the sky. Each raindrop contained tremendous power. I quickly used the Rain Flying Kick Technique. Once the falling rain started taking the shape of a fox to protect me, Lee Geonmyeong showed a surprised expression.

[Even the power of the rain? I don’t know what is going on, but that firebird must be subdued.]

[......!]

Solar Phoenix was fighting fiercely with the ice dragon, but it was gradually decreasing in size due to the raindrops falling from the sky. The rain gathered to become a water dragon that engulfed Solar Phoenix. If it continued like this, it wouldn’t be able to show its proper strength and would disappear again.

[I will take care of those trivial snakes.]

[Prometheus?]

Then I heard an unexpected voice and felt a feeling of weakness in my body. The image of a fire with divinity appeared behind my back and flew toward Solar Phoenix. Tears fell from Solar Phoenix’s eyes after it was absorbed and it cried out loudly.

A golden sun formed behind Solar Phoenix’s back and the surrounding temperatures rose rapidly. It was a terrifying heat that made me afraid to get close despite having divine power. It wasn’t surprising that the nearby ice and water dragons melted instantly.

[Prometheus. It is you again...!]

Lee Geonmyeong felt an irresistible anger and pointed his finger to release a thunderbolt. However, another voice was heard and I once again felt a sense of weakness.

[I won’t let you bother him again.]

I didn’t know when Jinny appeared, but it took the form of a giant monkey with blue eyes. I could recognize that it was Atlas instantly.

[Atlas! How are you here?! Surely you can’t come here due to the punishment of holding up the sky!] Lee Geonmyeong shouted with a flustered expression like it was really unexpected.

Atlas grinned and beckoned. Then my inventory opened up and Yeouicho flew to him. He spoke while biting Yeouicho.

[Bah. I made two Yeouichos in order to escape from this damn punishment. How strong are they? Now one is supporting the sky instead of me. Of course, the other one was made to beat you up.]

[What nonsense...]

[It doesn’t matter if it makes sense or not. First, feel this punch!]

Atlas flicked away Yeouicho with his finger. There was a loud sound as Yeouicho grew bigger and flew in front of Lee Geonmyeong. The surprised Lee Geonmyeong was flustered and tried to stop it by crossing his arms in front of him. However, the power of Yeouicho easily exceeded Lee Geonmyeong’s expectations.

[I will be upset if you forget about me.]

The new Solar Phoenix occupied by Prometheus flew toward Lee Geonmyeong with a force that seemed like it would burn everything. The dazzling firebird flew with the sun on its back. Lee Geonmyeong quickly wrapped himself in a rainwater shield. Then he sent a shield made by mixing the three forces of snow, rain, and lightning toward the flying firebird.

However, Prometheus’ purpose wasn’t this in the first place. The firebird inhabited by Prometheus reached the end of Yeouicho blown by Atlas and set fire to it. It was very similar to what I once used in the World Competition.

[Every time my heart was eaten, I only thought about the day I would get revenge on you.]

[It isn’t enough that you turned me into a monkey so I could hold up the sky?]

Prometheus and Atlas spoke in turn. Then the two brothers muttered the same words at the same time.

[You shouldn’t have touched my brother.]

At first, a small wave spread out. Then there were dazzling beams of light and smoke that made people feel dizzy. Simultaneously, there were tremendous vibrations and an explosion of domineering divinity that shook the sky and the ground. There was a five-colored light so terrifying that even I flinched.

A mushroom cloud rose and settled down as there was a deafening roar. Once the pure white light disappeared, I slowly opened my closed eyes and looked closely at the traces of the explosion. Prometheus and Atlas had been reduced to half their size as if they had poured out their divine power at once.

[......]

I looked around to check Lee Geonmyeong’s life or death. There was a huge pit that was several kilometers in diameter. I thought that with this much power, Lee Geonmyeong definitely wouldn’t be safe. Just then, two thunderbolt spears flew through the dust and struck Prometheus and Atlas respectively.

[This!]

[......!]

Prometheus couldn’t fly properly because his wings were pierced. Atlas faced it and tried to block with one arm, but the one arm burst. I had an ominous feeling and immediately blew away the dust covering my vision with the wind. Lee Geonmyeong was emitting a frightening force as he slowly rose into the sky.

He was wearing thunderbolt armor and there were some cracks in the armor. Of course, there was a thunderbolt similar to the one he had thrown earlier in both hands. The force emanating from him was very strong.

[I would really be injured if it wasn’t for this armor. I didn’t think that you were hiding such things. Daring to embarrass me. You are prepared to be punished, right?]

Prometheus and Atlas looked embarrassed. Both of their faces hardened. Based on their reaction, they hadn’t expected this blow to be stopped. It was an attack that even I, who gained divinity, would find hard to endure. It was natural that the two of them would be so confident.

[Now, what will you guys... this!]

In order to buy time for Prometheus and Atlas, I quickly shot to the golden apple tree that contained Gaia. However, Lee Geonmyeong noticed it and appeared with the sound of thunder. He blocked my way and punched me. I also stretched out my fist toward Lee Geonmyeong. Naturally, it was me who was bounced back.

[Kuhaha! How funny. You want to face me, an original god, when you just awakened your divinity?}

I just smiled and raised the energy of Mudur who was sleeping deep in my body. The shape of a bloody orc formed behind my back before disappearing. In an instant, my right hand turned red and formed a huge fist. I didn’t even bother looking at Lee Geonmyeong’s face as I accelerated like the wind and punched his face.

The sound of metal colliding with metal was heard. This time, it was Lee Geonmyeong who took a few steps back. In order to avoid showing him a gap, I clenched both fists tightly. I alternated between divine attacks and struck the thunderbolt armor in succession. I grinned at Lee Geonmyeong who had a disbelieving expression.

[Do you have nothing to say because you’re having a hard time?]

In fact, once I gained divinity, I was able to fully control Mudur who was inside my body. This allowed me to make a partial transformation like this by borrowing his power. Of course, the size was adjustable. I could use Mudur’s power to turn my body slightly red.

[This incredible tough strength. How can you use this power?!]

[You don’t need to know.]

[Keeok!]

The fist I raised again struck his abdomen. The gaps in the thunderbolt armor increased even further and broke slightly.

[No!]

I grinned and kicked Lee Geonmyeong’s abdomen with Mudur’s strength and the power of the wind. Finally, the thunderbolt armor was completely broken and bare skin was revealed. I moved the shadows made by the Moon Flying Kick Technique to surround him from the east, west, north, and south.

I moved at the speed of wind from all sides while using all the Flying Kick Techniques in turn, unleashing terrifying kicks. It was the mobilization of all the weather forces I could use now.

Another natural disaster swept over Lee Geonmyeong from all sides.
