89 – 90. The Temptation of Kronos

The mission, which I thought would be easy, faced difficulties from the beginning.

‘…What?’

The reason is none other than one.

It was because of the inconvenience that came along with not wanting to use the abilities he had before.

“What are you doing? Poisonous weed in hand…”

“Huh? Uh uh, uh…”

Poisonous weed, Minerva says.

I threw away the grass I had plucked earlier and looked around blankly.

‘I don’t know at all’

Grass is grass and soil is soil.

I have no idea what kind of grass I should collect, even the grass right in front of me.

“Haaa…”

This never happened when I wrote [Eye of Chronos]

As much as I could see the information engraved on the time, I was able to bring about a similar effect of ‘sensing’ right away, but when I couldn’t use my eyes, erotic things started happening right away from basic gathering activities.

‘What about this’

As I was scratching the side of my head and feeling helpless, a message popped up in front of my eyes.

[‘The Oracle’ has arrived]

[God – Chronos: Doesn’t she have eyes?]

“…..Write”

[Cronus: If she thinks that she will ever regain her authority, then she doesn’t mind worrying about that. She will just go ahead, thanking her for the grace she gave her.]

“………..”

Should I use it?

No, I don’t want to write.

As much as I had already said it once, I didn’t want to bow my head to that bastard again.

‘Something…Something different…’

I quietly closed my eyes and pondered.

And at the end, I realized a way.

“Minerva, hang on”

“Yes?”

No

It’s true that I forgot about it so naturally, but

“Let me put on some glasses and start”

“Those are… The ‘glasses’ I bought before?”

“Right”

An artifact imprinted with ’emotion’

With that, it’s as easy as gathering something without the Eye of Cronus.

[God-Cronus: Indeed, borrowing the eyes of the lower ones. Don’t stop that However, the day will come when you will reach out to her.]

‘That’s not going to happen.’

I shook my head and started my gathering mission.

And at that moment, another message popped up before my eyes.

[You have obtained a ‘title’.]

[Title: Self-reliant child]

-The wisdom of the small can sometimes break the stubbornness of the big

-It is the ‘wisdom’ that can be seen as a human being who once tried to challenge the stronghold of God.

-It’s my own award given because I’m proud of myself for moving forward even though I couldn’t take care of you.

-Intelligence correction (small)

“Oh…!”

Looking at you.

[God – Cronus: Hera… Useless meddling]

[Jusin─Hera: It’s a reward for a legitimate work, don’t you know the concept of a ‘prize’?]

[God – Chronos: …………]

War of nerves going to and from the trust

Anyway, it’s me who makes up for the lack of intelligence, so I was just grateful.

..

.

The problem with the mission wasn’t just ’emotion’.

“Chrono, I see goblins ahead.”

“Looks like it”

I moved forward to deal with the goblins with Minerva.

Taang! Bang! Bang!

“It’s easy, it’s easy.”

Goblins fall down after being shot.

As it contained the divinity of Hera, not the divinity of Cronus, there was a feeling that the hand taste was a little lacking, but it was not to the point of being useless.

Anyway, there are only a few skills that I have developed right now, so it would be difficult to catch rubbish mobs just because only a few skills were sealed.

However, the biggest difficulty was…

“Chrono! Watch your nails!”

“Kuu….I know!”

When facing a boss monster

Kreurreung!!

“Go away, you bastard!”

I try to widen the distance by shooting wildly.

I try to overcome the crisis by using skills, but when I use skills, the boss monster also uses skills.

‘…It’s disgustingly stuffy’

The time cannot be adjusted.

I had to desperately sharpen my mind and win within the same amount of time.

‘Is this…Was it really this hard?’

The reality of not being able to use time.

If you think about it, from before, when dealing with boss monsters, they made time extremely slow, or accelerated alone in the slowed down time, but it was the first time they fought directly against trolls.

A battle that I had to fight to survive even though I had no choice but to do it.

At that time, the adrenaline was in full swing and I fought somehow.

“Only time…”

Only time, if only I could use it

I could kill such a crappy boss monster in one turn…

“Chrono, now!”

“I know!”

In the end, they match Minerva and come into the arms of Werewolf.

“[Zero shot]”

From noble mtl dot com

Kaeaeeng?!

Touuuong──Heavy hand taste

At the same time, the werewolf took a step back——and began thrusting its teeth into my throat again.

“This, C.I.I.P?!!”

I had to change my posture.

But no. Swarm. I do not have time.

It was only possible because the gods all helped me and applied the buffs before, but as a single person without a buff, I ran into an unavoidable limit.

‘Should I give you a shoulder…?’

Damn it

If that’s the case, I’m going straight to the hospital.

I did bring some potions and bandages, but I’ll have to endure some inconvenience from now on. I gritted my teeth—

──Sugagak!

Wow!

“…What?”

A werewolf collapses again with a massive throat cut

At the same time, Minerva came towards me, smacking her blood off her rapier.

“That’s an unfortunate mistake, Mr. Chrono.”

“…Haaa.”

Minerva literally

It was an unanswerable mistake in itself.

A mistake I wouldn’t normally make.

All of that was different from usual——it just seemed to show the limits of my power without borrowing the power of Chronos.

So

The moment my heart is weak

[‘The Oracle’ has arrived]

[God – Cronus: Whenever I open, I am ready to hold my child in my arms]

“…..Stop it…”

A message window floating in front of your eyes

From noble mtl dot com

Kronos says. Seduce attract

Come back to your arms

Embrace your own power, your own authority

Accept the reality I had, what I had, what I abandoned, and which should have been given to me in the first place.

‘I don’t like it… I don’t like it, I hate it filthy…’

If I keep going like this, let alone the mission, will I be able to complete an event properly?

Doubting yourself. Doubt. Weakness. Self-distrust.

A feeling that does not improve even after defeating a boss monster.

Just staring at her floor, all the troubled hearts. Around Germany, Minerva came towards me and said.

“But, in a way, it’s not strange.”

“What…?”

“In the first place, Mr. Chrono does too much work alone.”

“…..Minerva”

Minerva pulled out her water bottle from her top bag on her back and handed it to me.

“Please lean on me from time to time. I, too, will lean on Chrono-san a lot.”

“……Huh”

Yes

This is it

Perhaps, I threw Kronos away because I wanted this.

‘I’m sorry, but Cronus, your proposal is still rejected’

[Cronus: You don’t mean to say something stupid like ‘Because I believe in my comrades’, right?]

‘Anyway, if you take away stupidity from a human, what’s left?’

[God-Cronos: ….Do as you like. Idiot]

Cronos took the oracle and disappeared.

And another status window pops up in front of your eyes accordingly.

[You have obtained a ‘title’.]

[Title: Let’s move forward together]

-Human development is community development

-Overcoming individual forces is the unity of mankind, so advancing together is beautiful in itself.

-Please wait a moment. When you raise your name as my child, then I can give you strength as rain.

– When in a party, attack power +5% per party member

“hehehehe!”

That’s true

He is someone who knows how to scratch an itchy spot.

I got up from my seat and brushed my legs.

“Okay. I’ll look forward to it from now on. Instead, lean on me as you please.”

“!…Hmm…I think I know a little bit about Marth’s feelings.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Minerva moved forward, fanning her hand slightly.

It’s nothing at all, but it’s not a gentleman’s duty to ask questions, so I decided to skip it too.

******************

Day 1

“Still…It’s worthwhile.”

“That’s good”

Still in good condition.

Stress management with [Power Cord] While staying up

He is in excellent condition as he took a break on the way.

..

.

Day 2

“Four boss monsters…?”

“It’s all easy kids, so it’ll be fine”

“………..”

It passed without any problems.

However, Minerva’s stress level rises to a slightly dangerous level.

Focusing [Power chords] Towards stress management.

Tomorrow, it seems impossible to attack the boss monster.

..

.

Day 3

“So…How many did you say?”

“Thirteen. All of them are gathering missions, but don’t worry too much because they’re all easy.”

“………..”

Enter the stress relief zone

There seemed to be no major problems, except for a little rotting of the soul.

..

.

Day 4

“Die.Die.Die.Die.Die.Die.Die.”

“Hmm…”

Perhaps it was thanks to the stress and physical condition management the night before, my sense of battle came back to life.

Cleared many subjugation quests.

The only subjugation quest left right now is telling you that only the boss monster remains.

“If you kill them alone, is it liberation?”

“Um…”

Actually, you have to sharpen a pickaxe.

..

.

Day 5

“Is it… Is it over…?”

“Now the subjugation quest is over”

“Then…!”

“Yes. That’s right”

I said, showing a pickaxe and a shovel.

“Now I have to dig”

“………”

As the day progressed, Minerva’s words decreased.

Do you have a problem with stress?

I started to manage my stress by continuously turning on the [Power cord] At night.

“Chrono, I want to sleep comfortably today.”

“? Not comfortable?”

It’s a performance that lowers stress, so you’ll be able to sleep comfortably.

Let’s stop playing and look at Minerva…

“Comfortable. Without hearing any sound. I want to sleep.”

“……Oh”

Minerva’s spirit was brutal.

That day, I went to sleep without playing anything.

“Mission, how many left?”

“All that’s left now is the gathering mission… There are only 6 left!”

“Six…..”

If you have 6, you can eat rice cakes with more than enough.

Minerva let out a grim laugh and closed her eyes.

“…..Um”

This is what I’m saying now

I think I rolled too much…?
