Leveling with the Gods

[Level Up with God Episode 9]

* * *

Jiwon was confused.

Her brother was suddenly taken away by Hargan.

‘It’s definitely my older brother…’

I knew that Kim Yu-won and my older brother looked alike.

But no matter what, why can’t we recognize our blood relatives?

Just by looking at his expression, it was clear that he was not Kim Yu-won, but Kim Cheol-soo, the neighborhood idiot brother.

Of course, most people won’t be able to recognize it.

That means.

“You took the wrong person.”

Those idiots.

I mistakenly thought my older brother was Kim Yu-won.

‘Then what is Hargan?’

Did he really mistake his brother for Kim Yu-won?

The son of Zeus who became a ranker at the fastest rate after Kim Yu-won?

I had my doubts, but soon lost interest.

It was a story about a world far away from Hargan and Olympus, anyway.

Right now, the priority was to find my brother who had disappeared somewhere.

Jeopuk-.

I was wandering around thinking it might be somewhere in the alley leading to my house.

‘brother?’

I could see the back of my damn brother’s head in the distance.

“brother!”

He waved his hand and hurried away.

I was worried that something was wrong as I was taken away by Hargan, but fortunately, I somehow managed to escape.

Cheolsu turned to the call of support.

however.

“…uh?”

Jiwon made eye contact and froze in place.

The liver in my whole body became cold.

Even though it was a familiar face with no difference in eyes, nose or mouth, the sense of intimidation felt was different.

It was the first time I realized what it meant that everything wasn’t what it seemed.

The person in front of you is not your older brother.

“brother?”

A man known to look exactly like Jiwon’s older brother, Kim Cheol-soo.

Kim Yu-won looked at Ji-won and made a puzzled expression.

And that moment.

“Hey Cheolsu-!”

The men who had been threatening him before appeared again.

Rumble-.

In an instant, the men surround Yuwon and Jiwon.

Yuwon looked puzzled, wondering what kind of situation this was.

“What?”

“What? “What are you doing?”

A guy who puts his hands in his pockets and sticks his face in his face.

A man threateningly pulling out a knife from his waist and showing his deadly force.

There was even a guy who created a threatening atmosphere by spitting on the floor.

‘Jaes are dead now.’

The guys who were usually scary felt like flies at this moment.

just as expected.

“You man, what happened to us earlier?”

chin-.

The hand of the man who was touching Yuwon was caught.

And the next moment.

Crunch-.

“Kwaaaaaak!”

The wrist was twisted in the opposite direction and a scream echoed through the alley.

“What is it?”

“This bastard-!”

The men, who had drawn their swords as a threat, rushed towards Yoo Won.

So after a while.

Kyaang-!

The men’s swords that were stabbing Yuwon’s stomach broke.

“…uh?”

“Is that okay?”

Sigh!

The fingers snapped and the men’s heads flew back.

Some people had their foreheads dented and foaming at the mouth as if their skulls had been broken.

No matter how hard I try to plunge my sword in, my opponents are only city administration thugs who can’t even reach the 10th floor at most.

At that level, he couldn’t even hurt the body of a ranker who had just reached the top, let alone Yuwon.

“Uh, uh, uh….”

“Are you Jae-deul’s friend too?”

In response to Yuwon’s question, Jiwon quickly shook his head.

“Oh no! Absolutely not! I was just confused with my oppa…”

“Oppa?”

“yes yes! You may not believe it, but my brother looks exactly like Yuwon.”

“Oh, so are they?”

no wonder.

Yuwon, who understood the situation, nodded.

Well, other than that, there was no way there could be a crazy person downstairs who would point a knife at him.

Jiing-.

Yuwon’s kit rings at that time.

Yuwon, who was waiting for Hargan, nodded as he looked at the text message that arrived in the kit.

“Follow me.”

“yes?”

“Aren’t you going to find your brother?”

“…?”

Jiwon tilted his head, wondering what this meant.

Meanwhile, Yuwon’s back is slowly moving away.

Jiwon, who was confused, followed Yuwon.

* * *

“It’s an honor to meet you! “It’s called Orpheus!”

Orpheus bows loudly, folding his waist halfway.

When the great ranker greeted him that way, Cheolsu almost kneeled down reflexively.

but.

“This is Kim Yu-won.”

He calmly took the hand he held out and lowered his head.

Kim Yu-won, who I heard through rumors, is said to have a quite cynical and calm personality.

‘That’s right, right? this?’

When I glanced at Hargan, there was no particular reaction.

It looks like he didn’t do anything suspicious.

It wasn’t just Orpheus.

After that, five Olympus rankers came down to see Kim Yu-won.

They were all people who came to help with Kim Yu-won’s wedding ceremony.

‘ruined.’

I was sweating profusely.

His expression gradually became disturbed.

He thought to himself as he shook hands with another ranker.

‘If you catch it, you’ll die. Definitely die.’

I thought it would be better to be threatened by the gangsters like before.

“Hey, are you hurt?”

Hargan’s reaction to Cheolsu was natural.

With cold sweat dripping down my face, I couldn’t help but look like I was sick.

“Oh just. “I feel a little sick.”

“Cheek?”

“Now, I’m going to go to the bathroom for a moment.”

Cheolsu came out with a weak excuse.

He turned on the water and exhaled harshly.

“Huu hu-.”

I felt like my heart was going to explode from stress.

The only thing on my mind was how to get out of here.

Ugh-.

The kit in my pocket rang.

A text message arrived from Jiwon.

[Jiwon: Oppa! Have I really met Kim Yu-won? He really looks just like my brother?]

Suddenly, tendons sprouted from his head.

‘of course! ‘That’s what you saw!’

I felt mean about my younger brother talking excitedly without even knowing his own situation.

After taking a moment to catch his breath, Cheolsu raised his head and looked at the mirror.

Even if you look at it yourself, it looks exactly like Kim Yu-won.

Whether this is a curse or a blessing depends on what you do.

“You can do it, Kim Cheol-soo.”

match-.

I came to my senses by hitting both cheeks hard.

“You can do it, man.”

It is said that even if you enter a tiger’s den, you will survive as long as you come to your senses.

With that, Cheolsu gathered his wits and started walking.

“What’s inside? Are you okay?”

When they returned to their seats, Hargan was drinking with Orpheus Dionysus.

“Can I have a drink?”

If the alcohol was brought by Dionysus himself, known as the best liquor businessman, it would not taste ordinary.

If you refuse here, you will be suspicious for no reason.

“of course.”

Nodding his head, Cheolsu held out a glass of wine.

Just as Hargan was about to pour alcohol into the glass that Cheolsu held out for him.

“Oh, by the way, you don’t drink much, do you? “What’s going on?”

Again-.

I made a mistake.

But how would you know?

Does Kim Yu-won like or dislike alcohol?

When Cheolsu couldn’t say anything.

“It’s a joke. What are you doing with such a straight face? “I heard you have a drink with Brother Hercules.”

Hargan grinned and patted Yuwon’s shoulder.

In fact, Yuwon had been drinking alcohol little by little since the fight with Outer ended.

The reason I didn’t drink before then was largely due to my personal preference, but also because I was worried about becoming mentally unstable.

Grrrr-.

As he drank the drink that Hargan had poured for him, Cheolsu sighed in relief.

But that wasn’t the end.

“Is Pandora okay?”

“I heard the story from Hephaestus. “The first sword you made back then is now…”

“Ah, Seongyoon said there’s Oh Gong in the store right now. What game are you into these days?”

“Yuwon. If possible, I’d like to invite you to our next dinner party…”

Questions and invitations poured in.

Cheolsu used his wits at every moment and passed the questions smoothly.

But that was only for a moment.

Kiyi-.

The door to the store rented by Hargan opened.

They said they had closed the store so no one could come in.

“brother!”

A completely unexpected person came inside.

Jiwon Kim.

He was Cheolsu’s younger brother.

‘Ji Ji-won?’

Cheolsu’s wide-eyed face turned white.

It would be a big deal if Jiwon called him oppa here and now.

No matter how he was acting, if it was discovered that he was Jiwon’s older brother, everything would be revealed.

‘no! Do not come! Please….’

That’s when I screamed inside and glared at Jiwon.

Jeopuk-.

One person followed Jiwon into the store.

A person who looked exactly like Cheolsu and his doppelgänger came in.

Yuwon Kim.

I made eye contact with him.

‘Fucked.’

The real thing has appeared.

The mask on Cheolsu’s face collapsed.

Cheolsu’s legs trembled as he faced Kim Yu-won, who was approaching him.

Suddenly, I felt Hargan getting up from his seat, making a show of popularity.

Soon he will be roasted whole….

“It wasn’t bad.”

Hargan’s words as he approached Yuwon.

What’s not bad?

A question mark appeared above Cheolsu’s head.

“Is that so?”

“Do you think it would be useful as a stand-in?”

“Is it better than a doppelganger?”

“They have such a short retention time. Moreover, it is difficult to fool even the rankers who are sensitive to magic power.”

Yuwon smiled and nodded at Hargan’s words.

“Then that’s it.”

* * *

Not long ago.

Yuwon asked Son Goku, who was lying in the living room of his house and yawning.

“Are you not going to work?”

“Hmm-. me?”

It was Son Goku, registered as a mercenary of Olympus.

He was responsible for protecting the tower’s security and resolving disputes between each guild.

But why?

Until now, Yuwon had never seen Son Goku do anything properly.

“What are you doing? “The alter egos do it anyway.”

Yuwon’s eyes trembled at that answer.

“why?”

“I should have learned that.”

“that?”

“Immolation. “Because it looks comfortable.”

Self-immolation was Son Goku’s signature skill.

Of course, no matter how much of a Yuwon he was, there was no way to learn his alter ego.

That was a unique skill that Son Goku had.

“Are you jealous?”

“…okay.”

Son Goku asked, looking at Yuwon, who accepted it more obediently than expected.

“Why do you need this?”

“There are too many places to call. “There are places you can’t avoid.”

“but. “I wonder if one or two problems can be solved with just your name or face.”

Zeus and Thor Vishnu etc.

There were countless guilds that asked Yuwon for help.

And there were quite a few points in return for turning away all that help.

“If you need a face and not strength, why not get a doppelganger?”

“A doppelganger?”

“uh. “But I just happened to hear an interesting story.”

Son Goku chuckled as if it was fun just thinking about it.

“What floor was it? Anyway, I heard there’s a kid who looks just like you?”

* * *

“The acting skills aren’t bad either. “It would be perfect if I just had more courage, right?”

Hargan tapped Cheolsu’s shoulder.

“It looks like we are running out of points. how is it? “Do you want to work part-time?”

“Ah ah part-time job? “You mean?”

What kind of part-time job are you talking about?

The withdrawal was confusing.

Judging from his reaction, it seems like he already knew that he wasn’t Kim Yu-won.

Then why on earth did you waste your time on someone who was just a player in the lowest tier?

The question of withdrawal was soon resolved through Yuwon’s words.

Tuktuk-.

Yu-won pats Cheol-su on the shoulder.

He spoke to Cheolsu with a satisfied face.

“I passed. Self-immolation.”
