A Monster Hunter Born of Capitalism - 202 201. Olympus (1)
After preparing to leave Yooseong, Lee Hyun gave him the coordinates of Olympus. Although the mythological statue of Olympus is a huge mountain in space outside the Earth, it was actually a mountain at the top of the Olympus dimension.
‘I wonder what Olympus will look like. Like the Olympus Guardian? ’
Like the Disney cartoon, Yooseong remembered all the contents of the cartoon because it was a cartoon that was broadcast on TV.
Although the gods may not be like the gods in the cartoons, the background knowledge will be as helpful as the cartoons based on Greek mythology.
“Here we go then. ”
Meteor used Bifrost. Bifrost, a tool in Asgard, was curious that it could be connected to Olympus, but it was made by the gods.
Shhh!
Bifrost’s pillar of light wrapped around his body. Bifrost led him to Olympus.
“Is this Olympus? ”
As Bifrost’s dazzling light faded, what appeared to be a giant mountain. The mountain is so high that you can’t see the top.
“Is that Mount Olympus? It’s so high.”
It was like Mount Olympus, where the mountain had a Temple of Olympus. There is a thick mist at the top of the mountain, so there is nothing above it, but there must be a temple at the top of this mountain because the myth says there is a temple at the top of the mountain.
“By the way, when did you go up this high mountain…? Across the mountain. ”
What were the gods of Olympus thinking, building a temple on that high mountain? I’m not a mountaineering enthusiast.
“The gods can’t climb that mountain on two legs. The reason why we built the Temple on top of the mountain is to test Humans. ”
A light voice heard in the ears of Yooseong beating his bruise while looking at the clumsy Olympic acid.
I turned my head and saw a blonde boy floating in the air.
Who’s the boy? Could it be God? ”
I looked carefully at the image of the boy. The boy wears a strange hat and holds a staff. The winged staff he was holding was intertwined with two snakes, which he seemed to see a lot.
‘I saw it somewhere…. ’
Yooseong closed his eyes for a moment and stuttered his memory. Later, I remembered the name of the staff that the boy was holding in his head.
“Cadmus!”
“Oh? I’m aware of that. That’s right, Cadmus. ”
That was correct.
Moreover, the hat and shoes that the boy was wearing were also items that he had seen a lot somewhere.
‘That’s a Nebber hat. ’
The hat worn by the boy was the hat I saw every time he went online. The hat logo on the portal site with a green search box and the boy’s hat looked similar to what I thought was a plaque.
And the winged shoes, the Tallaria. The boy Hermes was right in front of him.
“Hermes.”
“Bingo.”
When he called his name, Hermes came down from the air and walked to him.
“Welcome to Olympus. Hunter.”
* * *
Hermes came to meet the meteor. He said he couldn’t make him climb Mount Olympus, so he came to get him.
“Personally, I’d like to see you squirm and climb the mountain. Even the Greek heroes who were stronger than you climbed the mountain with trembling hands. ”
“So you watched the heroes climb the mountain with all their strength… The gods are a stench. ”
“But I can’t make it as easy to meet God as the man next door. ”
Exactly!
After finishing the horse, Hermes flicks his fingers. Then there was a translucent foothold underneath his feet.
“Come on. Let’s get up there. ”
Yooseong climbed onto the platform as Hermes had said.
“Then we’re going up. ”
Hermes’ body rises into the air. Then the footstool that went up came up into the air along Hermes. On the footing, Yooseong followed Hermes up the mountain.
“You don’t look so good. Are you bored?”
“Boring. I’ve been looking at the same mountain ever since. ”
“Look forward to it. You’ll see something cool soon enough. ”
Climbing up to the top of the mountain on the platform, the dark fog that was covering the mountain began to clear. Then the magnificence of Olympus, which had been hidden in the fog, appeared.
“Oh my…… How did they build those statues? ”
Giant statues the size of giant Olympic phosphates. Statues of the gods that filled the rocky walls of Mount Olympus were exquisitely exquisite as if they were alive and breathing. Who could have carved such statues out of the huge rock walls of this huge mountain? Maybe he was the best masonry in the world.
“How many people in Olympus have that kind of dexterity? ”
“I don’t know.”
“There’s only one. He’s Olympus’ finest handyman. ”
“You’re not Hephaestus, are you? ”
“What are you talking about? Of course it was Hephaestus. ”
“Hephaestus was not the god of the stonemason, but the god of the blacksmith. ”
Hephaestus, who knew Yooseong, was a god that symbolizes flames and blacksmiths. It was far from stonework.
“It’s not weird. Aren’t you Pandora? ”
“Pandora? The Pandora’s Box? ”
“Yes, the Pandora. It’s got to be a myth. Hephaestus made Pandora, the most beautiful human of all. That’s enough to prove it. He’s a really good brother, so he’s good at anything he does with his hands. ”
Come to think of it, Hephaestus was quite possible. In a way, Hephaesto was the first figurehead master of Greek mythology…… No, he was a mason and sculptor.
“Did you just think that was weird? ”
“I don’t think so.”
Hermes was quick to notice.
‘Maybe it’s because he’s the god of thieves. ’
I thought he should be careful in front of Hermes.
“We have arrived. This is the Pantheon, the Mansion of the Divine Olympus.” ”
It sounds like a name I’ve heard a lot in Summoner’s Canyon, but let’s move on.
The Pantheon, the Temple of Manchuria, was incredibly spectacular, unlike the Temples of Asgard. Not that the temples of Asgard are not glamorous, but they are just beyond fancy.
The Temple Column is a real gem, right? How much will I get if I sell all that stuff out? I can’t even imagine. ’
As he stretched his imagination while looking at the pillar of the Pantheon’s jewels, Hermes tapped his shoulder and brought him back to the real world.
“Come to your senses. We need to get to the conference room from here. ”
“Meeting room?”
“We need to talk about how to beat Asgard. You’re in charge of a big part of this, so it’s imperative. Don’t let it out. ”
“Yes? Me? ”
You’re in charge of a major part of the Asgardian attack?
What is this nonsense?
With his small and small brain, I couldn’t fully understand Hermes’ words.
I could feel how Jose felt on TV.
“Now, wait…! ”
“Let’s go hear the details and get inside. ”
Hermes, who held his hand, kidnapped him as if he were taking him to the meeting room. Yooseong was dragged to the meeting room with a depressing look like livestock being dragged to the slaughterhouse.
* * *
“What’s wrong with your face…? ”
Loki was surprised when he entered the meeting room with his depressed expression. What the hell happened to you?
“I don’t feel good…. ”
“Huh?”
“You should have told me…… Hermes did. You said I’m in charge of the big part of this plan…. ”
“Oh, that? You don’t have to worry about it. The Olympus kids said they’d help!”
At his words, Loki smirked and smiled as if it was nothing. However, Yooseong’s idea was different. When I think of the worst, I always think of the worst. Loki reassured him that the gods of Olympus would solve all of them, but his mind was different.
“No, my hunch is telling me. Things aren’t going as smoothly as you think. ”
The heart of Yooseong was very confused, but he couldn’t stay like this forever. I grabbed a strand of hope and tamed his mind. Before the meeting started, it was noisy with small talk.
‘These are the gods sitting over here. There used to be that many. ’
On the right side of the conference room were the gods of Olympus, including Hermes. That’s why I felt a great deal of mysticism in your place. Some of the gods that I saw in Asgard, in Torna Valdur, had been playing Aura, and they seemed to belong to the gods of Olympus 12.
Of course, there were many other gods. Aside from the gods of Olympus Major who know the name of Yooseong, there were many gods sitting there, but I was a little surprised at first because there were so many.
“It’s a lot, isn’t it? I’m surprised there’s so many of them. In Asgard, we don’t call upon any of the other gods at our meetings, but they all do. ”
Since there were so many numbers, I thought I should search NaXwiki later and turned my head.
“Oh, there are children in Titan. Zeus may have made up his mind. ”
That’s why there were so many of them.
Titans ruled the world before Zeus. In the mythology, after the war with the gods Titanomakia, all but Titans favored the gods of Olympus were abolished in Tartaros.
‘So the Titans are all friendly Titans to Olympus. And those seats over there look like spirits… Are they semi-gods? Or mythical heroes? ’
He turned his gaze to the left. When I looked to the right, I felt a little frustrated because of the vast power of the gods, but this time I was relieved because they were spirits with similar powers.
What was curious was that the costumes of the spirits sitting on the council were different. In the movie 300, there were spirits wearing golden, gauntless armor, spirits wearing wrinkled Greek traditional clothing, and spirits wearing gladiator outfits with outstanding muscles. There was something distinctive about everyone.
“What are you staring at? ”
“I’m surprised you’re dressed. The Einherjar and Valkyries of Asgard had similar outfits, but this one has a distinctive personality. ”
“There must have been a lot of countries that believed in this myth. But you know what? There’s that muscle mass in the gladiator suit. He’s been watching you the whole time. He was looking at it with a weird face. ”
Yooseong turns to the gladiator Loki mentioned. A gladiator stares at you.
