Chapter 362: Not the Crow! (2)

[You’re finally here . ]

A black bird was here .

This definitely looked like a Crow . However, the bird’s eyes flashed and it aimed for Ju-Heon .

[I cannot let you get past here . ]

‘!’

That was right .

This bird was not the Crow that he had been looking for .

It looked a bit different .

Some things around Ju-Heon started glowing . They looked like Toombglyphs but they were different .

‘Rune text . ’

It was at that moment .

Swooosh!

The runes flashed and Ju-Heon was somewhere else .

“……!”

He was in an unfamiliar cell when he opened his eyes . And……

[You’re here . ]

It was an unfamiliar voice .

Ju-Heon quickly became alert .

‘That bastard is?’

This artifact might be difficult for a different reason than those guard bastards .

Why?

There was an old man with a wide-brimmed hat sitting down with crows, or ravens in this case, behind him .

He was certain of it .

‘Odin . ’

That was right .

The artifact in front of him was Odin, the king of the gods in Norse mythology .

This overbearing old man had a shabby cape and his wide-brimmed hat was low on his face .

He was giving off quite the aura unlike the other artifacts, despite being in a cell .

The old man laughed in an overbearing manner as soon as he saw Ju-Heon .

[Seo Ju-Heon, I really wanted to see you . ]

The pressure coming from him was no joke . Ju-Heon just scoffed .

This was an extremely precious special grade artifact . He was happy to see it, but…

“So this wasn’t the way to the Crow? I have business with that bastard . ”

The man’s one eye flashed .

[The fog you used was one that brings you to a trap . You would have been eaten by the guards if you went where it was supposed to go . ]

Ju-Heon started to frown .

‘Was that the odd sensation I felt inside the fog?’

He had felt the Crow’s aura in the fog but also an unknown sense of dread .

Anybody other than Ju-Heon would probably not have been able to feel it .

Ju-Heon looked at his hand that was starting to rot .

Part of it was because his Tolerance skill was gone after the Crow’s power disappeared, but……

‘It’s definitely the aura of the high-grade guards . ’

They were all Divine-Grade or higher .

In addition, he remembered this from the past . It was the same power that had killed them without them being able to do anything in that tomb .

‘I guess it is a bit dangerous to go like this . ’

Odin smiled as if he read Ju-Heon’s expression .

[Those bastards are trying to lure you in with the Crow’s aura . ]

“!”

[There is a reason they can imprison the Crow there . Even the Majesty will lose his power there . I am probably the only one who can survive in that area . ]

Ju-Heon started to smile .

“So you called me here because you thought I would die? What a good little artifact . ”

[No . ]

“!”

Odin’s eye flashed .

[I came to get back what you stole from me! You wicked bastard!]

“!”

The cell broke as Odin shouted .

Bababang!

Ju-Heon easily dodged it and started laughing .

His reaction was to be expected .

“What the hell? You were able to get out of your cell?”

That was right . Odin had destroyed the bars and easily walked out .

The other prisoners could never dream of doing something like this .

“Is it related to your arrogance about being able to survive in the Crow’s tomb?”

Odin ignored him as he was fuming with anger .

[Shut up and hand over my items, you terrible shit!]

Bang!

Ju-Heon barely dodged by using Chi You’s fog as he spoke .

“Ah, your things? Are you talking about Gungnir and Sleipnir?”

A laser shot out of Odin’s eye as he said that .

[Hand them over immediately if you know what I am talking about!]

Bang!

Odin really seemed angry . He was using runes like a true sorcerer to kill Ju-Heon .

But Ju-Heon should have expected this .

‘Gungnir and Sleipnir both groaned and tried to return to their master . ’

They seemed to have quite the deep connection with Odin . Furthermore, Sleipnir…

‘That pushover bastard said he scammed his way to get it out . ’

Odin was grinding his teeth .

[I could hold myself back when a damn human King took my throne . I could hold myself back when that damn Prometheus took my spear . But now a shitty scammer runs off with my beloved horse?!]

He looked as if he wanted to kill Jaeha and shred him to pieces .

[I know that you are that bastard’s master . Take responsibility for your subordinate and hand over my items!]

The other Norse artifacts in this area raised their voices as well .

[Yes! Hurry up and return father’s subordinates!]

[You animal-like bastard! How dare you pull off a scam to run off with it!]

“While it’s sad that you were scammed, I’m sorry . I have no pity for you . ”

[What?]

“Since I’m going to take even more things from you now!”

Ju-Heon viciously laughed and cast Chi You’s fog .

Bang! Bang!

The artifacts screamed .

There was even a giant and an extremely famous hammer among the artifacts that Ju-Heon exploded .

Ju-Heon seemed extremely excited but they couldn’t help but grind their teeth .

[That wicked bastard is going to aim for even more of Allfather’s treasures?]

“Yeah! Do you really think I would be done with just a spear and a horse?! Odin is known for having a ton of items among the Divine-Grade artifacts!”

[You’ve gone crazy with greed!]

Odin released his aura in anger .

He truly deserved to be a Major God-Grade artifact as his power was much stronger than the regular Divine-Grade artifacts .

Boom!

The three doggie artifacts Ju-Heon had on him groaned .

The doggies could resist because they were very well-known named artifacts but any low grade Divine-Grade artifacts would already have been destroyed .

[Fuck, we need a Major God-Grade artifact too!]

[Should we go call that bastard Zeus over?]

[That’s okay sir . What would we use that bastard for when he can’t even use his powers properly?!]

Zeus had been shunned after becoming a eunuch .

[It makes no sense to get help from an artifact of a different culture in the first place!]

The doggies roared and viciously released their auras . Odin flinched for a moment .

But he did something that made the doggies scream as they were sent flying .

Bang!

[Ugh!]

[That bastard really is using a weird artifact!]

He must have some peculiar ‘knowledge’ that allows him to use his powers in this prison .

That was the only explanation .

[Master! That bastard has something on him!]

[We should first get out of here…!]

However, Ju-Heon was smiling .

“Why would we get out of here?”

Ju-Heon thought this was great .

‘It is true that the Crow’s tomb is dangerous . ’

He knew very well after having experienced it once already . That was why he had left the rest of his team behind this time .

‘Even if I die, I will die alone . ’

The other guards were probably preparing all sorts of traps to get rid of him .

His Dominance seemed to be getting cut down the deeper he went into the tomb .

But Odin was able to use his powers fully even though he was a prisoner here .

‘It must be because of an artifact this bastard has on him . ’

That artifact was probably one of Odin’s treasures…the ‘Mímir’s head . ’

It was a giant’s head that would share all sorts of knowledge, basically it was Odin’s trove of knowledge .

‘Having that should be helpful . ’

That was probably why Ju-Heon started to laugh .

“Hand over Mímir’s damn head . ”

[!]

Odin seemed shocked .

“What’s wrong? Did you think that I wouldn’t know? Isn’t that head the reason you can survive in the Crow’s tomb?”

Odin truly seemed wary of Ju-Heon .

[So you really will try to get the Crow . ]

“That is the only way for me to become the Majesty right now . ”

[Give up on that Crow . ]

“Why?”

[That Crow is the Crow that will bring destruction . ]

Ju-Heon started to frown .

‘Destruction?’

[But before that, hand over my items! You bastard!]

Ju-Heon calmly activated some artifacts .

“Fine, take it if you want it that badly . ”

Ju-Heon had called out the artifact car, Sleipnir!

VROOM, VROOOOOM!

The Norse artifacts sneered at Ju-Heon after hearing the sound of the supercar .

[That stupid idiot! He took out Sleipnir in front of father!]

[That bastard is dead now!]

Odin was very happy as well .

[Ohhh, come to me . Get rid of that disgusting appearance and…]

But at that moment…

Bang!

[Ugh!]

Sleipnir seemed to be rushing toward Odin but actually turned Odin into roadkill…no, ruthlessly slammed into him .

[?!]

The imprisoned Norse artifacts all jumped in shock .

[Father!]

[D, did that bastard go crazy?!]

Sleipnir was still an artifact that had been promoted to a Majesty’s Treasure-Grade artifact . It was extremely powerful .

Sleipnir quickly returned to Ju-Heon and revved its engine .

[#$&!]

Did I do well? I did well, right?!

Sleipnir seemed happy to see Ju-Heon . It seemed angry that Ju-Heon had left it behind earlier .

Odin, who was slammed head first by his treasured steed seemed to be in shock .

[T, that bastard…]

However, Ju-Heon just smiled viciously .

“Well, it’s fine if you don’t want to tell me where it is . I can just find out for myself . ”

[!]

Ju-Heon’s eyes flashed viciously as he said that .

Odin started grinding his teeth .

[Do you understand? That Crow’s goal is to get rid of all artifacts from this world . Do you really think I would let such a bastard back out?]

Ju-Heon seemed quite interested .

“Get rid of the artifacts? That’s possible?”

Odin seemed to be remembering something from the past .

[Hurry! Hurry up!]

[We don’t have much time left!]

The battle between Monarchs had happened in the past as well .

The artifacts gave orders to the Heirlooms in order to select a Majesty .

[Heirlooms! Hurry up and choose your masters!]

[Make your masters fight! Make them determine a final victor!]

The requirement to become the Majesty was to win this battle between Monarchs . The fourteen Heirlooms growled .

Each Heirloom had the responsibility of making the human they select become the Majesty .

There would only be one person left and that person’s Heirloom would be promoted to become the Majesty’s Crown .

That was probably the reason .

The Heirloom searched far and wide for strong humans who they felt had the most chances of victory .

[I will take the most talented martial artist as my master!]

[You’re so one-dimensional . Having positional power is better than physical strength! I’m going to take an Emperor as my master!]

[They’re still just going to be horny men . Even Emperors will fall to humans with extreme beauty!]

The Heirlooms each selected the candidates they thought would be victorious .

But one of the Heirlooms, the Crow, didn’t seem to have any interest in this battle .

Actually, it wasn’t interested in humans at all .

Humans rushed toward the Crow once the Battle of the Monarchs started so that they could become a Monarch as well, but they were all ignored by the Crow .

“Oh oh, it’s a Heirloom . I can tell that this is a talented Divine-Grade Crow . ”

“I must contract with this artifact!”

“No! It’s mine!”

The Crow was not interested in anyone despite their overwhelming physical strength, unmatched beauty, or overbearing power .

In fact, it felt that the goddess artifact that showed affection to the humans was weird .

[Why are you showing affection to the stupid humans? They just led you to be executed . ]

The Goddess of War, the Crow goddess who loved humans, started laughing .

[How pitiful . So so pitiful . You will learn one day as well . ]

[That will never happen . ]

The Crow goddess ended up being executed .

Anyway, the Crow seemed no different from the rest of the artifacts . It was an artifact’s true nature to want to harm and kill humans .

However…

“That shitty old bastard!”

The Crow met a young man .
