Chapter 990_Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 990

 Minhyuk immediately ran to the site where they were building the Battle God’s Temple when he heard what Obren said. These were the notifications that greeted him when he approached the temple:

 [All of the materials used in the temple are worshiping you.]

 [The materials are genuinely happy to be able to be a part of a temple that serves your name.]

 [They will evolve to another level and go beyond superior materials.]

 Then, something shocking happened. The air turned fresher and made the entire temple feel more pleasant. The trees’ branches stretched on their own and covered the exterior of the temple with blooming flowers. Not only that, the stones that looked ordinary before suddenly grew shinier, sturdier, and stronger, making the Battle God’s Temple more beautiful than before.

 ‘Is this the Battle God’s effect?’

 That was not the case at all. Minhyuk might not know, but the materials did not react like this because he was the Battle God. He had achieved tremendous growthpared to ordinary yers. He was even able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Luvien Empire’s emperor. Even if he wasn’t the Battle God, his existence was well worth worshiping these materials.

 Of course, Minhyuk did not forget his original purpose once he entered the temple.

 ‘Temple Evangel, the temple in myths.’He could only shudder at its enormous power despite only being in an iplete state.

 Minhyuk released a shaky breath as he attempted to apply Evangel to the Battle God’s Temple.

 “Apply Evangel to the Battle God’s Temple.”

 Was Obren and Minhyuk’s assumption true? He did not even need to wait for the answers; the notifications had already started to ring.

 [Would you like to apply Evangel to the Battle God’s Temple?]

 ‘Obren. You’re really…’ 

 He was Minhyuk''s dear and good friend.

 However, there was just something that he could not understand. ording to Obren, he probably had already achieved Temple Level 7 for Evangel. Was the reason why Evangel remained at Level 1 even though he had met all of the requirements because he had not applied it to a temple? That was quite weird, no?

 ‘Well, we’ll only know it if we try.’

 Minhyuk agreed to apply Evangel.

 [The temple from the myths responds to its master’s calls.]

 Immediately after that, a massive light pir fell from the sky. Alvier and the construction workers, who were waiting outside the temple, were left stunned.

 The Battle God’s Temple had already be even more beautiful, but when the pir of light fell upon it, a bigger change began to take ce. Glittering diamonds appeared and decorated the walls of the temple, while golden water started to spew out of the unfinished fountain, and the trees started to turn white. Countless white flowers even appeared and covered Minhyuk’s body.

 Swoosh–

 Minhyuk’s clothes changed into a white papal robe when the white flowers slowly disappeared. At the same time, a notification rang in his ears.

 [Evangel observes the master of the temple.]

 Minhyuk gulped dryly. Evangel was observing him to decide if he, who dared to own its temple, had the qualifications to do so.

 [Evangel admires you and the power you possess.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Evangel admires you and how you became the God at the Highest ce from the God at the Lowest ce.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Evangel admires you and the gods under yourmand.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Evangel’s Level has reached Level 4.]

 [At Level 4, the amount of EXP that Evangel requires to level up will double.]

 Minhyuk grew nervous when he heard the notifications stop for a moment. ‘The amount of EXP needed will double?’

 Thankfully, the notifications began to ring once again.

 [Evangel is both in shock and awe of you and your effort, passion, endurance, and patience.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Evangel is both in shock and awe of you and the countless achievements that you have made.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Evangel is both in shock and awe of you, the most miserable and pitiful god, who became the greatest god, the Battle God.]

 [You have leveled up.]

 [You have met all of Unfinished Evangel’s requirements for use.]

 [You can now use Evangel’s power from this point on.]

 Minhyuk shuddered. ‘It is just as Obren said.’

 Evangel was not a temple that one could quickly raise the level of. First, Evangel’s master had to have the qualifications and power topletely rule it.

 And Minhyuk, who checked Evangel’s information, could not help but groan. ‘It’s abilities did not change.’

 In the first ce, the power that allowed Minhyuk to give buffs to ten knights was Level 7 Evangel’s power.

 ‘Unfinished Evangel.’

 This meant that Evangel was still not able to achieve its full potential. Perhaps it was just like Obren said. There was a chance that it could give anyone who entered the temple a buff, or maybe it would also change into something they hadpletely failed to predict.

 At that moment, another series of notifications rang in Minhyuk’s ears again. It was as if it was saying that things were not yet over.

 [Evangel is both in shock and in awe of you, who became the greatest god, the Battle God, despite being a mere human being.]

 [Evangel is very satisfied with the master that owns its temple.]

 [Evangel has leveled up.]

 [Unfinished Evangel has taken a step closer to reachingpletion.]

 [If youplete thest step, Unfinished Evangel will truly be the true andplete temple from the myths, Evangel.]

 [Unfinished Evangel’s powers have started to change.]

 [You can now choose a total of 20 Evangel Knights.]

 [Evangel’s buff abilities have decreased significantly.]

 [Evangel’s buff duration has increased significantly.]

 [If a follower of your religion enters your temple, Evangel will grant them a 3% increase in attack and defensive power. The buff wouldst for an entire week.]

 [If a follower of your religion enters your temple, Evangel will grant them a 3% increase in EXP Acquisition Rate. The buff wouldst for an entire week.]

 [If a follower of your religion enters your temple, Evangel will grant them a 4% increase in abnormal status resistance. The buff wouldst for an entire week.]

 [Those who have been bestowed with Evangel’s power will only be able to receive this power again after six months.]

 “...!”

 Minhyuk trembled fiercely. His followers would receive a 3% increase in attack power, defensive power, and EXP Acquisition Rate and a 4% increase in abnormal status resistance.

 ‘This is a cheat.’

 Nothing would be more cheat-like than being able to bestow buffs to an unlimited number of people. Of course, that did not mean it would now be easier for them to attract other yers, especially if they could still find merits and benefits from different kingdoms and empires.

 ‘It’s still only at Level 8.’

 This point should not be overlooked. But there was one problem.

 “How can I raise its level…?”

 Godly Editor Carron said this was the best time for them to release the Battle God’s advertisement video to achieve the best effect. Considering the amount of time needed to produce the video and various other factors, Minhyuk only had at least one month to increase Evangel’s level.

 However, even if he had the time, he did not have the method. Then, at that moment, someone approached Minhyuk, who was thinking about this problem. This man was Alvier, the one they hired from the outside with a huge sum of money.

 “A temple that is more solid and sturdier than it is now, as well as outstanding statues and portraits of Your Majesty along with samples of all of the artifacts and items you use. These together will help you raise the temple until you reach thest level.”

 “...?” Minhyuk looked at Alvier in surprise.

 Since he entered the temple, Minhyuk had heard the notifications about his increase in favor with the construction workers and builders. This was more prominent in the case of Alvier.

 Alvier was very thrilled. He quickly understood what this phenomenon meant. ‘This temple… this temple will be my masterpiece.’

 As someone who has been making temples for a long time, he could not help but be impressed. Of course, he had heard about Evangel, the temple in the myths.

 ‘I never expected that there would be a god in this day and age who would receive the recognition of Evangel.’

 From what Alvier heard, Evangel would not even respond to some of the gods. At this moment, Alvier, who had always firmly believed that it should have been Nerva sitting in the throne of the Battle God, felt like this was the opportunity to change his mind and see if Minhyuk was indeed the true and genuine Battle God.

 Minhyuk’s interest was piqued after listening to Alvier’s words. “Are you sure that I canplete Evangel with those items?”

 “All items representing Your Majesty, the Battle God, will help the temple grow. However, all of these items should satisfy Evangel.”

 “...I see, so it’s almost impossible.”

 Minhyuk understood that the statues, portraits, artifact samples, and better exteriors should at least be God-grade or perhaps even higher. But was that even possible?

 No matter how outstanding a sculptor was, there was no way that they would be able to make a God-grade sculpture right away. It could even take them a year at the very least. And, of course, the same was true for the portraits and the artifacts.

 ‘I’m quite good at making God-grade dishes, but I can’t say for sure about the others.’

 And it would even be ridiculous if he tried to do the sculpture and the portrait by himself, no?

 ‘In the end, do I have to wait for a long time?’

 It could be possible if he set the due date to at least a year from now.

 ‘But the Luvien Empire must have already settled down by then.’

 A bitter taste lingered in Minhyuk’s mouth at the thought.

 At that moment, Alvier said, “There is a way. There is someone in this world who can make outstanding sculptures, paint life-like portraits, and even duplicate the original artifact perfectly.”

 Minhyuk’s ears perked up. ‘Someone like that exists?’

 Then, Alvier finished his sentence. “He is one of the Eight Pirs, Jack-of-all-Trades Rocado.”

 “Eight Pirs?” Minhyuk was quite surprised.

 Although they knew some of the Eight Pirs, most were still hidden. The ones known to the world were Athenae, Obren, Kronad, and Helenia. Minhyuk had assumed that not all of the Eight Pirs longed for power and threatened many people''s lives, as in Athenae’s case.

 “From what I heard, he can do anything and everything rted to DEX, and make it better than anybody else. That’s everything that I know about him.”

 The Eight Pirs Jack-of-all-Trades Rocado, a person hidden behind a veil. How did Alvier know about someone like him?

 ‘He must have exhausted great efforts just to create a better temple.’

 Minhyuk guessed that Alvier was the type who would find out about everything until the very end. However, there was no need for the man to disclose information like this to him, no?

 ‘But why did he share this precious information with me?’

 But thanks to that, Minhyuk was now aware of the person hailed as the Jack-of-all-Trades among the Eight Pirs. The difference between knowing and not knowing was like the difference between heaven and earth.

 ‘I have to gather information as fast as I can.’

 By the end of this, he would be able to obtain aplete Evangel and millions of migrants.

 ***

 Special yers Management Team.

 Team Leader Park Minggyu, monitoring Minhyuk, quizzed Lee Minhwa after a very long time. “What kind of person is Jack-of-all-Trades Rocado?”

 “He’s like the father of dexterity. Just like the Weapon Master, who is a master of all weapons, he is superior to any being regarding things rted to DEX.”

 Team Leader Park nodded. “And what can yer Minhyuk gain from Rocado?”

 “Rocado is one of the Eight Pirs. Aside from being able to obtain aplete Evangel, there is a chance that he would also receive something special. Something that is yet to be revealed in the world.”

 This was an important point to note. Rocado was the Father of Dexterity. What did that mean?

 “He has a Pir’s Ingredient, an item yet to be released to the world, in his hands.”

 That was right. The Pir’s Ingredient was an ingredient that had the power to go beyond a God-grade or perhaps even an Absolute God-grade ingredient.

 Team Leader Park and Minhwa looked at each other. The expressions on their faces were hideous. Minggyu’s face was twisted horribly, and Minhwa looked like she was crying andughing simultaneously.

 “Hoho. yer Minhyuk will use the Seeds of Revolution on the Eight Pirs’ Ingredient.”

 “Then, do you know what we will do next?”

 Lee Minhwa knew precisely what they were about to do.

 “We have to continue monitoring him.”

 That was right. Their overtime has just been confirmed.

 ‘Please let me go home…’ A silent cry resounded in their heads.
