Chapter 139: Olympus Dungeon (1)

“I have a question for you, Jiho. How many apostles can you have?”

At her words, I checked the level of the Apostle’s Garden.

The level kept increasing.

Since the SP consumption wasn’t too high, I kept raising it until it reached level 100 before I knew it.

Once it surpassed level 50, the number of allowed apostles started increasing rapidly, and when it hit level 100, the limit reached a thousand.

Is this the max?

I tried to raise the level further, but a message popped up saying that at S-rank, the number of apostles was limited to 1,000.

“It looks like the limit is 1,000.”

Kang Shia nodded at my words.

She reacted as if she had expected the number to be lower.

“1,000… Then we’ll have to recruit only elite hunters.”

“Kang Shia, wouldn’t that be difficult? The top-tier hunters already have patron gods.”

“Hyeju is right. The hunters from the Asgard era have mostly sworn loyalty to Asgardian gods. While Asgard has said they don’t mind if their hunters switch allegiances, they’ve provided major benefits to keep them in place. Most of the highest-ranked hunters are still with Asgard. They’d rather keep their current positions than risk losing their advantages.”

So, hunters with patron gods can switch deities.

But they just don’t feel the need to?

That explains the current situation.

If that’s the case, I probably can’t even recruit mid-to-upper-tier hunters easily.

Everyone is desperate to recruit people.

“So that means they won’t come to our side?”

“Yes. Honestly, I don’t think we can get the highest-ranked ones. But I do think there’s a way to attract upper-tier hunters.”

Kang Shia pointed at Lee Jinseong.

“When our guild was struggling, Jiho took us all in as apostles. After that, when Lee Jinseong reached B-rank, Daehyun Guild benefited a lot from the publicity. Tons of people asked how he leveled up so fast. If we say it was thanks to Jiho, our patron god…”

“That was back when gods were still sealed. Would that still work now? These days, gods are competing aggressively to attract Awakened individuals with benefits.”

Diana raised her hand to question it.

She had a point.

Back then, the benefits were minor, but now, gods are offering major incentives.

There’s no differentiation.

Kang Shia looked at Diana and nodded.

“You’re right. This is just a way to remind people about Lee Jinseong’s rapid growth back then.”

“Then…?”

“We need to emphasize Jiho as the first human of the 21st century to ascend to godhood. A human patron god. No, a god.”

“Me?”

“Yes. Right now, people aren’t even considering the possibility of becoming gods themselves. But if we reveal that Jiho has ascended, it’ll generate immense interest.”

At that, Drakina, who had been listening with a dissatisfied expression, immediately countered.

“That’s because this one… I mean, this patron god is a uniquely exceptional Awakened. Regular humans can’t do it. Even among dragons, successful cases are rare.”

“But humans don’t know that. And we don’t need to attract everyone. The limit is just 1,000 people. We were even thinking of doing a commercial, but now we won’t need to.”

Kang Shia sounded disappointed, as if the ad had been a major part of the original plan.

Was I really about to be in an Asura-style commercial?

As the first human god of the 21st century?

“The world has changed drastically. The powerful elites of humanity have learned ways to extend their lifespans. They’re not choosing religions hastily; they’re watching and scheming,

“I’ll come too.”

“No, Kang Shia. Stay here and keep monitoring the situation in other cities. Things might get dangerous.”

Diana was a demigod, and Drakina was a dragon, but Kang Shia was just a regular human.

She could be in real danger.

She nodded at my words.

“Understood. I’ll keep you updated through the Apostle's message.”
