Chapter 757: The War of Destruction

The entire world cheered loudly after watching the video that Joy Co. Ltd. released. It was around thirty minutes long, which was pretty lengthy. Many people had clicked on this video when it was released, and Minhyuk was no different. However, he received a call from President Kang Taehoon the moment he clicked on the video.

The scene on the computer screen changed as the story began.

The Land of the Gods, the world beyond the clouds.

[The gods’ nanny, Bellian.]

A kind and beautiful woman looked at the young gods that sat and huddled around her.

“Bellian! Hurry! Tell us that story again!”

“You still want to hear that story?”

“Yeah, yeah! That story grows more interesting the more we hear it!!!”

“The story of the Battle God and the Destruction Monarch!!!”

“Hoho. Alright, alright.” Nanny Bellian gently brushed away the hair of the little god that was buried in her embrace. Then, as she looked at the other young gods, she began her story. “A long, long time ago…”

***

[There were two brothers that got along well.]

“Brother Farrow, let’s go togetheeeeeer.”

“Belson, if you don’t come out, then I’ll be going ahead.”

[The brothers were similar, yet also different. The older brother, Farrow, was adventurous and courageous. He also had an outstanding charisma and an amazing ability to lead. Because of that, many people flocked around him.]

[The younger brother, Belson, was very timid. He was afraid of venturing out and going on adventures and did not have many friends because he was very picky about the people around him. In fact, his only friend was his older brother, Farrow.]

“Brother, I’m really tired,” Belson, who was breathing roughly, spoke.

Farrow, who was climbing on a cliff with him, looked back. “So? Can you become the great ruler of the Land of the Gods like that? The soldiers will definitely laugh at you.”

“Hiiik…! I can do it too!”

The younger brother, Belson, immediately followed after Farrow and climbed up on the cliff.

[Even though the younger brother Belson was timid, he was surprisingly chosen by the Battle God.]

The adventurous and courageous Farrow climbed the cliff quickly! However, even though he had a head start, Belson was able to climb faster than him.

“…”

[The biggest thing that the two had in common was the fact that they would become great and excellent rulers once they grew up.]

[The elder brother Farrow envied his younger brother Belson. Despite being timid, he was good at everything because he was the child chosen by the Battle God.]

Farrow looked up at his brother Belson, who had already gone far ahead of him despite starting very late, with a bitter look on his face.

“Huh?”

But then, Belson suddenly tripped and crashed back on the ground.

“Aaaaaaaack!”

Thuuuuuud—

Shocked by the sudden turn of events, Farrow hurriedly climbed back down and checked Belson’s leg.

“It, it huuurts…”

“It’s broken.”

“…I wanted to climb too.” Belson looked up at the cliff sadly.

Farrow knew how much his brother wanted to climb this cliff. He looked at his sad brother and said, “Come on, get on my back. Belson.”

“Huh? What are you saying? You want to carry me and climb such a dangerous cliff?”

“Come on, a man should not be afraid of challenges.”

Farrow began to climb the cliff again while carrying Belson on his back. His breathing turned ragged as he struggled to climb with Belson on his back. Nevertheless, he was still able to climb the cliff just as his brother wished.

“Haa… Haaa…” Farrow panted loudly as his entire body collapsed on the ground.

[Farrow might be jealous of his brother Belson, but he also cherished and loved him more than anybody else.]

“Thank you, brother.”

[Belson also loved his older brother more than anybody else.]

[The two laid down on the ground at the top of the highest cliff and looked up at the sky above them.]

“Belson.”

“Yes, brother.”

“It doesn’t matter who becomes the Battle God between us, we have to congratulate the other with all our heart, okay?”

“Of course!”

[The older brother, Farrow, already knew.]

[Even though he tried harder and worked harder than anybody else, in the end, the one that would be chosen as the Battle God was his younger brother, Belson.]

[His words were a reminder to himself. A reminder that he would congratulate his younger brother wholeheartedly once he became the Battle God.]

[But one day, a disaster befell the younger brother Belson.]

[The Evil Incarnate, who hid deep within the Land of the Gods after the battle with the previous Battle God, placed a curse on the twenty-year-old Belson.]

[The Evil Incarnate declared that Belson would die at the age of 21.]

[Farrow’s men raised their voices at this.]

“God Farrow! This is a sign from heaven. It’s your chance to shine and rise to the position of the Battle God!”

“It won’t be long before God Belson falls into eternal rest!”

“You can now become the Battle God, the position that you longed for so much!!!”

Farrow, who grew up kindly and nicely, heard the words of his men and felt his head throb. They kept on saying that he would finally become the Battle God since his brother Belson was dying.

Farrow walked toward his younger brother, Belson. Belson had grown ill and started to grow weaker by the day. The younger man had grown pale as he coughed loudly. Farrow gently patted his brother’s head.

Then, Belson, with his dry and chapped lips, said, “Brother, you did not forget the promise we made, didn’t you?”

“…”

“We promised that we will congratulate whoever becomes the Battle God with sincerity, no? Brother, I can now congratulate you wholeheartedly once you become the Battle God.”

“…”

“Brother, make sure to become the greatest Battle God in the history of the gods, okay?”

“Yeah…” Farrow nodded.

The moment he went outside, he immediately ordered his men to bring his horse to him.

“Where will you be going?”

“I will go and meet the Evil Incarnate.”

“Wh, what…”

“I will save Belson.”

“Goooood!”

“Nooooo!”

“You must not go there!!!”

“You can now become the Battle God!!!”

Farrow smiled bitterly at the cries of his men. “The Battle God position… I won’t take it even if you force me.”

[Farrow rode his horse and ran as hard as he could. He went to where the Evil Incarnate was, in the depths of the darkness that encroached upon the Land of the Gods.]

[The Evil Incarnate was one of the unknown Absolute Gods. He had been exiled by God Athenae because of his ferocious and cruel personality.]

[On top of that, the Evil Incarnate was very strong, to the point that even if the gods joined forces, they would not be able to deal with him.]

[Farrow continued to run through the Land of the Gods to go where Evil Incarnate was.]

[Finally, he stood face to face with the Evil Incarnate.]

Black streams of energy appeared and created a figure in front of Farrow. The figure looked similar to a demon.

“The one that was left behind, the unchosen one.”

“Evil Incarnate, release the curse that you have placed upon my younger brother Belson.”

“Kihihihihihihihihihihi! Kihihihihihihi! Kahahahahaahahhaaha!”

[The Evil Incarnate could not understand it. He was curious why Farrow came here. Why did he come here when he could become the Battle God once his younger brother died?]

“If your younger brother lives, then you will not become the Battle God.”

“I don’t need such an opportunity! Hurry up and lift the curse from my brother!!!”

[The Evil Incarnate grew furious after seeing the deep bond that the two brothers shared.]

[That was why he made a proposal, one that he was sure Farrow would never accept.]

“Then, how about this? How about you become the one to carry the curse in Belson’s stead? Ki, ki, kihihihihihihihihihi!!! Hihihihihihihihi!!!” The Evil Incarnate laughed like crazy and left Farrow speechless for quite a long time.

Then, the video changed.

This time, it showed Belson, who was fast asleep. Farrow, engulfed in a bright light, appeared right next to him and bent down to kiss his forehead.

“Belson, I’m sure you will become a great Battle God. Congratulations, my dear younger brother.”

“Brother?”

[However, when Belson opened his eyes, Farrow was nowhere to be seen.]

[Belson’s body felt light and energetic. On the other hand, Farrow disappeared, never to come back even after seven years had passed.]

[And…]

“Wooooooow!!!”

“Battle Gooooooood!!!”

“Waaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

The gods cheered as tens of millions of soldiers from the Divine Army knelt down before one man. He wore a crown made of light.

[Battle God Belson.]

It was a story about the past of the current Battle God, Belson. That was right, Belson became the Battle God all because of Farrow. However, even though he became the Battle God, Belson did not look happy.

***

The view changed once again to show the nanny from earlier. The young gods began to bombard her with questions.

“So, what happened to Farrow?”

“Unfortunately, the older brother Farrow…” The nanny smiled bitterly as the scene changed once again.

***

[He was dying deep inside the forest where the Evil Incarnate lived.]

Although Farrow was not chosen by the Battle God like his younger brother Belson, he was someone who worked hard and had a talent that far surpassed many other gods in the realm. It was said that there were not that many gods that could beat Farrow in a fight.

However, that very same Farrow was dying alone inside the deep, dark forest. His face looked pale as he gasped for air while lying on the ground. Nevertheless, there was a faint smile on his face as he looked up at the black sky above him.

“Belson, congratulations on becoming the Battle God.”

Finally, Farrow died.

[However, Farrow’s death was not the end. Furious, the Evil Incarnate placed a curse on him and brought him back to life.]

Crack, crack, crack, crack— Slash, slash! Swish, swish—!

The forest started to change. The roots of the trees swayed and moved, wrapping around Farrow’s dead body and creating an armor around him. Iron rose from the ground to create a sword for him as millions of troops awakened around Farrow’s body.

“The One that failed to become the Battle God. All of this was planned by your younger brother Belson. Belson had come to me and asked me to put a curse on himself so that you, his older brother, would give up your own life.”

[The Evil Incarnate whispered in Farrow’s ears.]

[Farrow, caught in the vicious lie, began to hate Belson.]

“Belson, I will kill you and become the Battle God.”

[After that, Farrow disappeared with the army around him.]

***

The scene changed again.

The young gods were crying as they surrounded the nanny.

“The Evil Incarnate is really bad.”

“Then, does that mean that the older brother, Farrow, came back and attacked the Battle God?”

The nanny shook her head at the young god’s question. “Who knows? I also do not know…”

Rumbleeeeeeee—

But then, the ground began to shake and tremble. Nanny Bellian hurriedly moved to hug the young gods.

“Wh, what’s happening!?”

Nanny Bellian, with the young gods in her arms, looked out of the window. That was when she saw a forest surrounded with black energy slowly descending upon the Land of the Gods from the sky above.

[Destruction Monarch Farrow has awakened in the world!]

[Destruction Monarch Farrow has returned with the Land of Destruction!]

[Destruction Monarch Farrow points his sword at the Land of the Gods!]

Vwoooooooooooooong—

The Land of the Gods rumbled and shook. Nanny Bellian hugged the crying young gods tightly. Then, she saw millions of fierce and vicious troops on the Land of Destruction that was slowly descending upon them from the sky. This was Farrow’s army, one that she had only heard from the stories.

“What, what do we do…”

Bellian knew. She knew that those vicious men would definitely defile the Land of the Gods and kill many. She was helpless. Her body trembled and shook as she hugged the young gods tighter.

Then, the strongest and greatest Absolute God, Battle God Belson, appeared. Engulfed with a golden aura, the Battle God raised his hand toward the descending land.

[The Battle God has sent the Land of Destruction down to Earth!]

[The Battle God tries to unravel the curse that plagues the Destruction Monarch Farrow!]

[Farrow’s curse cannot be lifted!]

[Farrow’s curse cannot be lifted!]

[The Battle God suffers an attack from Farrow and has lost a portion of his power!]

[The Battle God tries to unravel the curse plaguing Farrow using a different method!]

[Farrow temporarily loses his rationality!]

[The Battle God sends an envoy inside the body of the irrational Farrow to control him!]

[The envoy that the Battle God has sent failed to control Farrow!]

Flash—!

At that moment, the Land of Destruction that was slowly falling on the Land of Gods passed by and landed on the earth.

[The envoy that the Battle God has recognized has failed to control the Destruction Monarch Farrow!]

[However, they were able to successfully seal some of the power of the Destruction Monarch!]

[The envoy that the Battle God has recognized can now use the power of the Destruction Monarch!]

[The envoy that the Battle God has recognized becomes the Destruction Monarch. They can now use a portion of Farrow’s power and become much stronger!]

[The Battle God attacked Farrow and was able to temporarily control a portion of his powers!]

Then, the Land of Destruction finally settled down on earth. Farrow, who had lost his rationality, opened his eyes and looked over the land. Then, he opened his mouth and said, “Kill everyone.”

At that moment, the voice of the Battle God rang all over the world.

[Brave Descendants.]

[Kill the Destruction Monarch on my behalf and drive away the Land of Destruction.]

***

Finally, the video ended.

At the same time, a notification rang for Minhyuk, who was about to log into Athenae.

[The Battle God has appointed you as the Chosen Envoy!]

[Following the arrangements discussed with Joy Co. Ltd., you will awaken inside the body of the Destruction Monarch!]
