It was a tone that didn’t have the slightest reverence for a god .

However, Hoculus didn’t rebuke his attitude .

He wasn’t expecting respect in the first place .

Watching the absurd and greedy energy ready to explode inside of him, expecting respect was going overboard .

Hoculus’ expression hardened as he looked at the old man .

‘What a disgusting mix…’

He was sure the old man had used every indecent way possible to recreate his body

Hoculus, who had been looking at the old man for a short while, spoke slowly .

“Are you trying to make a wish without even passing the test?”

“Yes, that’s right . I have to break down that door and take the test, right? Okay . Give me whatever . I’ll take care of it and return right away . ”

This man was overflowing with confidence .

Hoculus couldn’t blame him though .

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say the old man’s strength was the strongest he had ever seen among the humans who had come to challenge .

‘… Even stronger than Vulcan . This test… is only a form of ritual for him . ’

Being the one in charge, Hoculus summoned the demons .

These were the most violent in ‘Light in the Dark’, the most difficult level of Act 2 .

Even the half-gods and bravest soldiers feared them but the old man didn’t look too nervous .

In fact, he was smiling .

It was like a smile of a young boy before a big meal .

The old man jumped into the crowd of demons before Hoculus could say anything .

BAAAAAAAAAAM

BOOOOM

BAAAAM

It only took three attacks .

The demons lost their lives with only two punches and one kick .

In other words, there was a huge difference between the two forces .

But Hoculus wasn’t surprised at all .

He had been expecting this

He sighed, and looked at the old man, looking disturbed .

‘If he tries to go up to Act 3…’

And what should he do if the old man were to be accepted as a god?

Hoculus pondered what he could possibly do to lead someone so evil and terrible to the right path .

Not everyone who had been anointed as gods were good-natured .

Some were filled with greed, while others were selfish or cold-hearted .

However, there hadn’t been a single person who seemed impossible to reform like this old man .

It was to the point where he wondered whether the old man really was from the human world .

But this wasn’t the end .

Something even more shocking happened .

“Haha… My . . you’re making this unbearable for me . ”

CRUNCH .

CRUUUNCCHH .

After the battle was over, the old man looked at the corpses of the demons hungrily . He then held up the corpses, brought them to his mouth and started chewing .

“Wha… What?” Hoculus shouted, bewildered but the old man didn’t seem to care . He was ripping apart the corpses like a cutter and absorbing them .

The pile of corpses was bigger than the old man’s himself, but he continued to eat, and Hoculus looked on as if it were magic . After he was done eating, the crazy old man burped loudly and smiled, satisfied .

Then, he spoke .

“let me say this again . I have a wish to make . ”

Hoculus stood quietly in the temple .

He looked concerned and relieved at the same time .

He then murmured to himself .

“… . . I suppose this is for the better . ”

The old man hadn’t gone up to Act 3 as he had worried .

He had simply spoken his wish and left quietly .

No – his wish itself was being teleported to another place, so it was inaccurate to say he had left quietly on his own accord .

Anyways, the situation had ended better than he thought .

The place he had been transported to was a place Hoculus didn’t have to care should the old man wreck havoc .

‘In a way… it’s the best place that suits him . ’

Even so, he couldn’t understand why the old man would go to such a dangerous place on his own accord .

He didn’t even want to understand why .

Hoculues violently shook his head, as if deliberately wanting to forget the past memories .

‘I want to take a break… . ’

He hadn’t used much of his powers, but he was very tired .

He stretched out his forefinger and drew a line in the air .

A blue light exploded out of thin air following the line he drew midair, and the magic portal was complete .

He let out a deep sigh and was about to step in, grasping his forehead with his left hand, when he felt someone coming in to the temple once more .

Hoculus slightly frowned, not wanting to deal with anything when he needed rest right now .

As soon as he saw who had entered, however, he felt instantly better .

Hoculus grinned welcomingly, for it had been a while since he had seen the newcomer last .

“Vulcan! Welcome!”

Unlike his trips to Act 1, which was once every few years in Earth’s time, Vulcan rarely made visits to Act 2 .

It was mostly because there wasn’t anyone he was that close with .

He knew Hoculus and Honus thought well of him, but his hospitality was a little overbearing for Vulcan .

That was why the two were seeing each other in such a long time .

They didn’t have much to fill each other in, though .

Vulcan had been quietly enjoying his days after the battle with the Devil King, and Hoculus had his everyday duties as well, so there wasn’t anything special to talk about .

Of course, there was that slight conflict with the old man just now, but Hoculus didn’t want to talk about that right now .

Instead, he started talking about the acquaintances they knew in common .

“I see . I was expecting the Blue Winds to come along, and the same with Clutus…”

“Ah, well . . I did think he would be a god one day . Who knows? He may be stronger than you . Haha”

“True… . Especially since I’ve been busy slacking… . ”

Vulcan said, slightly flustered .

It wasn’t an embarrassing past, but he heard it as a way of saying Vulcan had been living lazily while his junior had matured all this time .

Vulcan wasn’t too bothered, though .

There was a lot of time .

He just had to work hard as well if he ever went up to Act 3 .

Vulcan thought of the monsters in Act 3, which he was expecting to be on a completely different level than Act 2, and quickly spoke up .
