Chapter 885

Bentley apologized because, even at the last minute, he no longer wanted to remain a vulgar and lowly god. Besides, the Food God that he had encountered was quite amazing and completely unlike the figure that he had envisioned, ridiculed, and jeered at.

“You are the Battle God.”

Light started to spill from the cracks that appeared all over the surface of the Titan of Destruction.

[The Titan of Destruction is going to explode!]

Despite the frightening sound that rang in his ears, Bentley remained calm, his eyes closing in relief and resignation. But at that moment, a rough and callous hand slammed on the transparent glass and broke it apart. The hand immediately grabbed Bentley by the collar and dragged him out.

Shwaaaaaaa–

Bentley opened his eyes and stared at Minhyuk, who was operating Bless. He watched as the man manipulated Bless to hug his body tightly and protect him.

Baaaaaaaaaaaang–!

At that moment, an earth-shattering explosion erupted and swept the entire area. With Bless’ protection, Bentley was able to avoid the explosion. As he watched the explosion, he could not help but wonder, ‘Why?’ Why did this man save him? He just could not understand.

As for Minhyuk’s thoughts, it went like this, ‘I can’t let you die here just like that.’

Was it because Bentley’s apology deeply moved him? However, Minhyuk was not a fool who would think, ‘It’s a pity to let him die like that after he had realized his wrongs.’ after hearing his enemy apologize to him. Bentley had admitted that he was qualified to be the Battle God.

‘Besides, the God of Dungeons is a god that has a huge influence in the Land of the Gods.’

That was right. The God of Dungeons’ faction was quite large. So, if God of Dungeons Bentley went out of the dungeon and explained to the other gods, their trust and faith in him would be more substantial.

‘Anyway, this guy is done for.’

Minhyuk knew that the punishments the Argalis Dungeon would bestow upon him would be severe. He glanced lightly at Bentley, who was being protected in Bless’s hands.

‘Why is he looking at me like that?’

Bentley was looking at him with sparkling eyes. Minhyuk slowly put him down and said briefly, “You cannot die yet.”

“...!”

Then, Minhyuk turned around after leaving those words. And Bentley? He felt very moved when he saw him like that.

‘He has a heart as big and wide as the ocean. Is there a god like that?’ Bentley’s thoughts ran wild, completely unaware of Minhyuk’s. ‘Did he forgive me because I realized my wrongdoings?!’

Bentley took the lead in slandering the Food God. However, he did not end it there. When the Food God was just about to pass through the Second Gate more easily than he expected, Bentley broke in by himself and even threatened him.

“...”

Bentley looked at Bless’s back, carrying Minhyuk. Unknowingly, he had already started respecting Minhyuk. He watched Minhyuk walk silently for a bit before climbing out of Bless. Then, Bless collapsed the moment Minhyuk got out of the cockpit.

The colossal divine weapon collapsed, and standing right next to it was a tall man with a wide and sturdy back! For some reason, Bentley felt his heart pounding when he saw this scene.

Then, Minhyuk immediately squatted down to pick up Bless’ parts. The charismatic figure earlier was nowhere to be seen as he scrambled for the pieces of the divine weapon!

***

[Bentley’s favor toward you has increased!]

[Bentley’s favor toward you has increased!] freew(e)bnovel

[Bentley’s favor...!]

“...?” A flash of doubt appeared on Minhyuk’s face as he squatted down and picked up the fragments of the broken Bless. All he did was spare him and look at him with a hateful(?) gaze, so... how come his favor toward him was rising? Either way, it did not matter to Minhyuk.

‘Bentley will go out of this dungeon and say words that would praise me.’

Of course, Minhyuk’s hands did not stop moving and continued to pick up Bless’ fragments.

[You have acquired God’s Tough Screw.]

[You have acquired 534 kg of Bless’ Tough Armor.]

[You have acquired Bless’ Heart.]

[...Bless’...]

[...Bless’...]

Although Bless was destroyed, the accessories and fragments it left behind remained priceless.

‘If I can also use these materials to make a titan of my own, then...’

It would significantly boost the Beyond the Heavens Empire’s military might.

Minhyuk, quickly picking up Bless’ fragments, looked up only to see that the exploding titans had stopped. Although there were still a considerable number of surviving celestial dwellers, that also meant that quite a huge number of black dwarves and titans were still on the battlefield.

‘How can I stop them?’ Minhyuk heaved a sigh.

Vwoooooooooong–

Vwoooong–

Vwooooooooong–

All of the operational titans stopped all at once.

[God of Dungeons Bentley has stopped the Titans!]

“Run!!!”

“Kyaaaaaaaaack!!!”

When the titans stopped working, the black dwarves immediately began to flee, and the surviving celestial dwellers were all shedding tears. At this moment, Minhyuk realized that the Second Gate had ended.

“...”

Minhyuk looked at them with a bitter smile. They had already died and had become heroes that the living had embraced in their ordinary lives.

‘Because of them, I am who I am now.’

Of course, this was just a virtual reality game. However, their existence made Minhyuk think about the heroes in reality once again.

At that moment, Veyron, who was leaning against the cliff's walls, stood up and approached him.

“We are the gods’ heroes.”

Veyron felt very happy that their sacrifice had reached those they wanted to save.

“But for us, you are our hero.”

The celestial dwellers cheered loudly as they looked at Minhyuk. Perhaps it was truly as Veyron said. He might truly be their hero, just like everyone has one small and ordinary hero in their lives.

‘It might not be as difficult to become a hero as one would think.’

Then, the notifications immediately rang in his ears.

[The Linked Quest: Food God’s Achievement is in progress!]

[You have cleared the Second Gate!]

[God of Dungeons Bentley has broken the rules of the dungeon and broken into the Second Gate.]

[Even so, you have cleared the gate with excellent results!]

[...the Title: God Above Gods.]

[...rewards...]

[...cleared the Third Gate!]

[...the Title: God Above Gods.]

[...cleared the Fourth Gate!]

Minhyuk had already confirmed through the Sudden Quest that he could skip all the remaining gates if he could stop Bentley here and clear the Second Gate safely. So, this was something that he had already expected. That was why his attention was drawn entirely by another set of notifications that had rung while the gate-skipping notifications were still ringing.

[You have reached a 67% Achievement Rate!]

[You have reached a 71% Achievement Rate!]

[You have reached a 73% Achievement Rate!]

[...Achievement Rate!]

[The final Achievement Rate that you have reached is 93%!]

[Since you have surpassed the required 60% Achievement Rate, you can complete the Quest: Food God’s Achievement whenever you want!]

Minhyuk did not even hesitate and said, “Complete the quest.”

He was very curious about the rewards of this quest, but at the same time, he was also terrified. Before he proceeded with the Food God’s Achievement Quest, he had seen the video of Food God Ravier cooking silently in his temple while planning his revenge against the gods that trampled on him. Minhyuk also knew that the gods that mocked and jeered at the Food God would receive the price for their crimes once the Food God’s Achievement Quest was completed.

When Minhyuk was about to succumb to nervousness, his voice resonated in the entire Land of the Gods.

[They pointed their fingers at me and criticized me during the Banquet of the Gods, saying, ‘You know nothing but eating.’]

[They pushed my face on the marble floor and told me, ‘You are nothing but a trivial and useless god.’]

Minhyuk silently listened to the same voice he had heard when he first received this quest.

***

The gods were shocked to hear the notification about the Food God’s achievement in successfully operating Divine Weapon Bless. However, the notifications that followed not long after alarmed them.

[The God that has made an achievement that can surprise even the gods has appeared!]

The Food God has made another remarkable and shocking achievement.

[The God has broken through Argalis Dungeon’s Second Gate and made an outstanding achievement while fighting against Bentley, who broke the dungeon's rules!]

They could not believe what they were hearing. God of Dungeons Bentley broke the rules of Argalis Dungeon and stormed in himself. “But he still cleared the gate?”

“How in the world...”

“Is he telling us that he’s not a god we can dare to judge?”

The gods had no other choice but to recognize him. If the God of Dungeons Bentley had stormed inside the Argalis Dungeon, then it was practically the same as the Food God dealing with an additional god inside the gates of the dungeon. However, that was not the end.

[The God that has made an achievement that can surprise even the gods has appeared!]

“...?”

“...?”

Everyone was rendered speechless. They were still doubting the authenticity of the notification, but another notification had already rang in their ears again.

[The God has made a phenomenal achievement by clearing the gates of Argalis Dungeon, a dungeon that has never been broken in the Land of the Gods for thousands of years!]

Now, no god was foolish enough to deny the qualifications of the Food God. However, their shock was not yet over. A voice suddenly resonated all over the Land of the Gods.

[They pointed their fingers at me and criticized me during the Banquet of the Gods saying, ‘You know nothing but eating.’]

[They pushed my face on the marble floor and told me, ‘You are nothing but a trivial and useless god.’]

“Ravier...”

It was none other than the God of Bards who knew the owner of the voice the best. He was the only god that came to see the final moments of the Food God. Ravier’s voice continued to ring all over the Land of the Gods, speaking about how hard he suffered back then and how long and much effort he had put in.

And the gods? They all listened intently to his story. It was the previous generation's gods that had wronged him. However, they all thought that they were no different from their predecessors. After all, they also mocked, jeered, and criticized the Food God, saying that he was not qualified to become the Battle God.

Back then, the God of Bards had asked the Food God Ravier in his temple, ‘What are you making?’ And it was this voice that answered his question instead.

[Finally, I was able to make it.]

The dish that Ravier made was not a dish that could poison others; it was also not a dish that could cause an epidemic or a dish that could take away one’s divine power.

[A dish that everyone can eat and bring happiness to all.]

“...”

“...”

These gods had already heard about the answer from the God of Bards. However, they once again heard it through Ravier’s voice.

[A dish that can show you that eating is an act that is not light and can be ignored.]

[A dish that can let you know that eating is an act that can make you very happy.]

[And after years and years of hard work, I finally succeeded in making this dish.]

[To those gods, I just hope...]

All of the gods sincerely admired Ravier. Someone even lamented losing a god whose generosity knew no bounds. Ravier was a noble and pure god that gods like them, with a twisted and ugly heart, dared not reach. For some reason, they felt what happened to Ravier was their fault.

[...that you can eat this and admit those facts.]

At that moment, a series of notifications rang for all the gods.

[A new Absolute God’s Secret has been born to the world!]

[The Absolute God’s Secret: Dish of Satisfaction has been triggered!]

[Please think of a dish you want to eat the most!]

[This dish will appear in front of you!]

“...!”

“...!”

“...!”

The fact that he could turn someone’s imagination into reality was a very shocking power. Why? Because there was no ability in the world that was as difficult.

The gods thought about the dishes they wanted to eat the most.

“I want to eat a sandwich. It’s a very meaningful dish that the human woman I have loved had made for me.”

“I want to eat steak. I still can’t forget the steak that the God of Cooking used to make for us.”

“I want to eat the first dish I ate when I became a god...”

Everyone began to think of the dishes they wanted to eat or the ones they could not forget from their memories. And whatever dish they chose appeared in front of them.

The God of Bards chose carbonara. He rolled the pasta with his fork and ate a mouthful. The moment he put it in his mouth, a rich and deep flavor immediately spread out.

“...Delicious.”

This was the most delicious carbonara the God of Bards had ever tasted. Surprisingly, the dishes Ravier had left behind for them had wholly won over their taste buds.

“It’s truly a dish that can bring you satisfaction and delight.”

“Come to think of it, the only thing that I look forward to every day is eating.”

[I don’t want much.]

Ravier’s gentle voice enveloped them.

[I just... want you all to know and learn about the joy of eating.]

That was the greatest wish of the heavily mocked Food God.

All of the gods' faces displayed happy and satisfied smiles. In that delighted smile, one could see both respect and pity for the Food God Ravier.

At the same time, a series of notifications rang in Minhyuk’s ears after he found out that the dish that Food God Ravier prepared would allow the gods to realize the importance of food and eating.

[You have completed the Linked Quest: Food God’s Achievements.]

[You have completed the quest with a surprisingly high Achievement Rate!]

[The first Food God, Ravier, is bestowing upon you his rewards!]
