Chapter 178: The Envoy of Incarnation Becomes the Envoy of Dishwashing

Translator: ChubbyCheeks

PR: MattForgenti

Kaistra knew how to wash dishes. Washing dishes meant wearing rubber gloves while squatting by the corner of the village. Washing dishes meant foaming the sponge with soap and scrubbing the bowls with them!

[Ka, Kaistra……]

Penrus looked at him in a fluster. Meanwhile, Kaistra just grinned widely, showing all of his teeth at him.

“I, I’m alright, Penrus. F, for real?”

At that moment, Penrus could see Kaistra’s eyes suddenly becoming misty. Even though Penrus saw Kaistra as a young boy, he was still a charismatic boy. In addition, he was someone that was recognized as the 9th in the unofficial world rankings. And that Kaistra was now crouched down and washing dishes!

[‘Wh, what in the world is……’]

Penrus was shocked as he looked at Minhyuk.

I can’t believe that you’re making the one and only Kaistra wash the dishes!

Then, Kaistra told him……

“Penrus, please bring me the dishes that are piled up over there.”

[......]

Penrus was one of the 5 incarnations, the incarnation of light. But right now, he was assisting Kaistra in washing the dishes.

Meanwhile……

“Oiiiiiink……! Oink, oink!”

A wide-eyed pet was sitting next to Kaistra while pointing at a plate. It was none other than Kongie. Kongie had both of his hooves over his waist while he pointed out the grease that was still left unwashed on one of the plates.

Do it right, oink!

Kongie was originally the one in charge of washing the dishes. That was why he was standing beside Kaistra and severely reprimanding him as his sunbae and senior.

“......”

Kaistra was left speechless with the situation that he was in right now.

‘I’m the Envoy of Incarnation…… but I’m being scolded by a pig……’

Kongie even patted Kaistra on the shoulders after he had scolded him. It seemed like he was using the carrot and stick strategy on him.

“Oink!”

If you work hard, I’ll make you into the main dishwasher. Oink!

He looked pretty cute to him. Then, Kaistra saw Kongie’s tiny paws. Kaistra was a big fan of domestic animals like cats and dogs and strangely enough, those guys have a savory, nutty and mysterious smell on their paws. In fact, Kaistra had a cat so he was familiar with such a smell. He unconsciously sniffed Kongie’s paws. His eyes widened in shock when he realized what it smelled like.

‘Th, this smell……!’

Kaistra was shocked beyond belief after he had smelled Kongie’s paws.

***

Minhyuk held back the tears as he watched Kaistra wash the dishes.

‘Th, there’s another mouth to feed……’

He truly did not know why the world was always doing this to him. He quickly shook his head to shake off all of his negative thoughts.

‘Kaistra is clearly a high-level ranker.’

He still did not know the extent of his strength as a ranker but he could tell that he had a strong presence. That was why he could ask him to do errands and find ingredients for him. Of course, Minhyuk did not intend to use Kaistra as his hands and feet. But Kaistra looked like he wanted to do that so he first ordered him to wash the dishes.

Ellie’s Kitchen Knife that was in Minhyuk’s possession was a versatile artifact that he could transform and modify into any shape. In addition, both the frying pan and the kitchen knife were equipped with the automatic cleaning function. However, the same was not true for the bowls and plates that they had used and were piled over. In a day, Minhyuk could use more than 400 plates. Originally, Kongie was in charge of washing the dishes but someone came and volunteered to do it themselves.

While he was deep in thought, he could see Kaistra running towards him.

“Mi, Minhyuk-nim……!”

With a shocked expression on his face, Kaistra ran towards Minhyuk while hugging Kongie in his arms.

“Oink!”

[Kongie is feeling grumpy.]

Kongie was scowling at Kaistra but Kaistra ignored him and just ran straight towards Minhyuk with him in his arms. Then, he said……

“Th, the smell of his paws. It, it’s an innovation!”

“......?”

Minhyuk looked at him as if there was something wrong. Not long after, he also smelled Kongie’s paws and his eyes couldn’t help but widen in shock.

“Ko, Kongie, you……”

He was left in shock.

“They smell like jokbal……”

That was right. Minhyuk thought that from now on, if he ever craved for jokbal, he could just smell Kongie’s feet as he ate rice.

[Kongie is feeling proud and confident.]

Kongie just shrugged his shoulders as he looked at Penrus.

You don’t have something like this, don’t you? Oink.

[......]

Penrus was not envious of him at all. Nevertheless, he still walked beside Kaistra.

“Ah, I still have something that I wanted to give you.”

Minhyuk tilted his head in confusion.

“From now on, I will be opening Kongie’s powers.”

“......Oh.”

Minhyuk turned to look at Kongie with a bit of expectation and anticipation. When Minhyuk ate the second God’s Legacy Dish, Kongie ate together with him. The both of them were able to level up after eating the delicious restaurant full course meal.

His attack power had increased slightly and the number of artifacts that he could equip had increased from two to three. So he was in anticipation about the changes that Kongie would have.

Penrus slowly approached Kongie. However, Kongie quickly flew towards Minhyuk. He was silently asking for a hug as if he was scared by his sudden approach. Minhyuk cradled Kongie in his arms as a white light started to flow out from Penrus’ mouth. The white light slowly began to get sucked in Kongie’s body.

“Oiiiink……!”

[Penrus’ Breath.]

[The breath of Penrus, a divine incarnation, has the power to open or level up a pet’s hidden strength.]

Shwaaaaaaaaa━

Penrus’ breath continued to get sucked into Kongie’s body while Kongie just blinked in confusion.

“Penrus’ breath does not feel harsh to the body but feels warm and cozy.”

Minhyuk nodded his head while Penrus closed his mouth and stopped releasing his breath. And Kongie’s eyes that had closed for a while suddenly opened wide. At that exact same moment……

Flash!

A bright light bursted out of Kongie’s body as he floated in the air.

***

Athenae was released and was operating in dozens of countries all over the world. Each country had different empires, maps and fields.

And right now, France Athenae Server had Hell’s Battlefield. It was originally called ‘Baham’s Battlefield’ however most users refer to it as Hell’s Battlefield. The reason was simple. It was because it was a land that had never been pioneered.

The Black Rose Guild, the 4th ranked guild in France’s guild rankings, once led around 400 members to try and clear the Hell’s Battlefield. However, the result was an unexpected catastrophic failure. What was even more surprising was that they were all wiped out in just 3 hours.

And right now, there was only one man standing on Hell’s Battlefield. He had short, blonde hair with a fan in one hand and soft-fabric clothes on his body. Not long after, a red flash of light abruptly came out of his body.

Flash!

[King’s Call.]

[A 70% ~ 90% chance of drawing the aggro and increasing your stats by 30% for 30 minutes.]

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!

The monsters that saw the flashing red light suddenly lost all their sense of reason as they began to run. There looked to be at least hundreds of monsters coming towards his direction. At that moment, the man tapped his left hand with his fan.

Rustle, rustle!

A black cape suddenly formed behind him as a glittering black full plate armor was slowly created around his body.

Chak!

The man suddenly opened the fan in his hand. Then……

Shwaaaaa!

Black clouds formed in the air above him as the wind picked up. In the end, strong winds blew all over the place.

“Kkiheeheheeeeeek!”

“Kahaaaaack!”

The wind began to tear the bodies of the running monsters. It lasted for about 5 minutes before coming to a stop. In other words, the typhoon-like strong wind tore apart the monsters beyond recognition.

Then, the fan suddenly flew out of the man’s hands all by itself before penetrating the bodies of the monsters that were still intact and alive.

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab!

After hunting and killing off the remaining monsters, the fan shook the blood off of its body as it returned to the man’s hands. Then, the man folded the fan once more.

The fan in the man’s hands was one of the disaster artifacts, Gorac’s Wind Fan. It had the ability to continuously blow cool air with just a single fan on your face. However, this was a disaster artifact. And the owner of the said artifact was Callauhel.

Suddenly, a pigeon landed on his shoulders. Callauhel took out the note and checked the contents of the message. It was a note that came from South Korea.

[This is Crone. The disaster artifact was taken by a user called Frying Pan Killer. I tried to use my guild members to chase after him but he had already disappeared from sight.]

“......”

Callauhel just stared at the note without a word before ending his connection to the game. As soon as he got out of the game, he began collecting information. The information was quite easy to find.

Frying Pan Killer.

Legend Guild.

The territory they received.

As well as a myriad of information related to him. He quickly sent his instructions to Crone and plenty of other people.

At that moment, someone knocked on his door.

Knock, knock?

An old butler wearing glasses and a suit entered his room.

“Young Master, it’s time for dinner.”

He was called Young Master.

He stood up as he nodded at him. He was about to step out when his eyes caught sight of his computer. Then, he laughed in ridicule before stepping outside.

In the middle of his room was a large red shield engraved with a pattern. It seemed to suggest that he was a noble.

***

Flash━

The powerful light in Kongie’s body was gradually fading. A creature silently walked out of the light. Minhyuk’s eyes widened in shock at the sight before him.

He walked confidently with a cold expression on his face, slowly approaching Minhyuk. Then, he turned towards Kaistra and smirked at him. He looked at Kaistra, Penrus and Minhyuk with an arrogant and pompous attitude before raising his hands to Minhyuk. It looked like he was asking him to kiss his hands in greeting.

“......”

“......”

[......]

Minhyuk, Kaistra and Penrus were all left speechless.

Then, Minhyuk spoke……

“You clearly did not remember anything. You’re just pretending.”

According to Kaistra, there was a high possibility that Kongie was unaware of his identity or that his memories were sealed. Most incarnations were born from eggs but Kongie was not an egg when Minhyuk first met him.

“Oiink!”

[Kongie is surprised.]

Kongie placed his little paw on his head as he got lost in thought. He couldn’t understand why he was caught just like that.

“......”

Kongie still remained the same old Kongie.

‘How come he looks the same time and time again?’

At this point, Kaistra’s myth-like story was slowly losing its credibility. However, he had only heard two level up notifications. When Kongie ate the first God’s Legacy dish, he was able to level up twice. And when he ate the second God’s Legacy dish, he only leveled up once.

In other words, Kongie needed a lot of EXP to level up. And having two level ups in one go meant that Penrus’ breath was more powerful than what he had initially thought of.

Minhyuk  quickly checked Kongie’s status window.

“......?”

Minhyuk could see that the rank that was previously written as “???” had turned into the Sealed Incarnation of Gluttony. In addition, There were significant changes in the attack power which had increased by more than 2,000. The attack power and defensive power buffs had also increased significantly. As he looked through the contents, he saw that the condition for Kongie’s growth had also increased.

‘The blood of your enemies?’

Minhyuk turned to look at Kongie in both shock and surprise.

***

TL’s corner!

I thought Callauhel would be someone that’s mature and can weigh the pros and the cons. Sigh. Minhyuk will have to fight against someone who underestimates him again, huh? Well, it seems like they will be the sacrifice for Kongie’s growth with how it’s going. Kek.

Sigh. I got two updates from Kongie’s stat window but not once from Minhyuk since what, ch 55? I want to see Minhyuk’s stats!!!!
