A week ago, Arlene had made a vow in front of all of the Absolute Gods that she would make a dish that surpassed the most incredible dish in existence.

Description: This is a dish created through the joint efforts of the God of Cooking and the God of Will. It contains the infinite will, effort, and bravery of the God of Cooking, the God of Will, and the Battle God. This dish also includes the warm and gentle love and affection of the God of Cooking, who wished to make it available for everyone. With her affection, anyone could eat this dish whenever they want.

Everyone could not help but doubt their eyes when they checked the dish’s information.

“How dare we try to taste a dish made by the God of Cooking herself?”

“And it’s even a dish made by an Absolute God?!”

“The best part is we can eat it whenever we want!”

Grand General Jenel, who was training with the army, looked very surprised too. He said, “Does that mean that everyone can eat it?”

The training troops of the Heavenly Army stopped in their tracks.

“The chicken porridge made by the God of Cooking?”

“The greatest chicken porridge made by an Absolute God?”

The gods reacted no differently from the rest of the people. Just because they were gods did not mean that they could have free access to Arlene’s dishes. After all, she was an Absolute God. Tasting a dish made by her meant that she had to cook for them. It was almost preposterous for a mere god to ask an Absolute God to make a dish for them. Hence, the number of people who had not tasted Arlene’s dish far outweighed those who had tasted it.

One of the celestial dwellers said, “I’ll taste it!”

A bright light flashed, and the chicken porridge that Arlene had made appeared in front of the celestial dweller. Then, as if on cue, light began to flash throughout the Land of the Gods.

The first celestial dweller who tasted the chicken porridge was rendered speechless.

“Why?!”

“What does it taste like?!”

Then, tears suddenly dripped down the celestial dweller’s smiling face.

“Is it so good that you can’t help but cry?”

“It’s very, very delicious, but... you know. This dish contains the God of Cooking, the God of Will, and the Battle God’s firm determination and hard work for 175 days. I can feel their love and affection for us in this bowl.”

The others began to eat after seeing the celestial dweller eat.

Meanwhile, at the training grounds. Jenel and the soldiers of the Heavenly Army also began to eat.

“Delicious!”

“It tastes even better after a hard day of training!”

“My god! Are you saying that we can eat this whenever we want?!”

“I feel like I can eat this chicken porridge all year round!”

Even God of Origin Athenae was given a bowl. She smiled faintly as she tasted the dish.

“Oiiiiiiink!”

Beanie, who had come to play with Athenae, also tried the dish. His eyes lit up in delight after tasting the dish.

“Yummy!”

“It’s really delicious!”

“Thank you for the food!”

“It’s really yummy!”

“Waaaaaaaah!”

How could they let Arlene be disqualified when she could make this kind of dish?!

[The voting results are as follows - Agree: 6%; Disagree: 94%.]

[The voting has ended.]

[The majority of the votes have decided to scrap the petition to disqualify the God of Cooking and the God of Will from their position as Absolute Gods.]

The shock brought forth by the dish was strong enough to break the brainwashing that the God of Incitement had placed on them. Not only that, but it was also powerful enough to sway their opinion and change their votes.

Raker was also in the central plaza. He stayed there to wait for the moment when he could laugh and mock the three gods. However, he was now left shaking as he watched the crowd change their opinion. There was also a bowl of porridge floating in front of the shaking Raker.

“Just a mere dish...” He said as he tried a spoonful of porridge.

Raker’s eyes grew wide the moment the spoon entered his mouth. His spoon hurriedly scooped one bite after another. In just an instant, he was able to empty the bowl of chicken porridge in his hands.

With a dejected smile on his face, Raker said, “It’s delicious...”

The flavor was divine. It was so good that he could not even bring himself to deny the dish. He looked at Arlene with the eyes of a devout believer witnessing the arrival of their one true god.

However, a commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd. The God of Judgment’s men broke through the crowd while shouting, “Catch the God of Ingenuity!”

“You are charged with the crime of cheating by brainwashing all of the celestial dwellers and the gods of the Land of the Gods.”

Not far away from them, the God of Incitement was already bound tightly by ropes. Raker tried to run away. He took a step back, unfortunately, someone was already blocking the path behind him. Raker turned his head to look at the person blocking his path. The person was none other than Minhyuk, the f*cking puppet Battle God!

Minhyuk stared at him, his gaze devoid of any ripples.

Even if Raker did not cheat, he wouldn’t be at any disadvantage. All of the Absolute Gods have agreed that if the God of Cooking and the God of Will truly could not prove that they had the qualifications, then they would accept new people in. However, Raker cheated. He committed a crime that crossed a line that he should never have crossed.

Raker turned to look at the God of Cooking standing behind Minhyuk and the still bleary-eyed God of Will, who was stretching after waking up from his sleep.

“Did you think that you could push them out of their throne?”

“Hiiiiiiik...!” Raker gnashed his teeth. Alas, the strength left his body just as quickly as his anger flared. At this moment, he realized that the position of the Absolute Gods was far too high for him to reach.

“It was truly delicious,” Raker said, his eyes focusing on the God of Cooking. This was the best compliment that he could give to her. Then, the God of Judgment’s men bound him tightly and dragged him away.

“He’ll get at least 300 years in prison.” The God of Judgment nodded as he turned and left with his men.

“What are you going to do with that dish?”

“What am I going to do with it? Well, I’ll keep it in my temple. So that many people can eat this dish for many years to come.”

Arlene would remain the greatest God of Cooking of all time, both in name and reality.

“Hehe. God of Cooking.”

“You’re really amazing!”

“You have become the greatest God of Cooking of all time!”

The gods gathered around her and began to flatter her. As for the God of Will? He stood there dumbly while scratching his head. He just stared as the cheers and praises of the people were directed solely at Arlene. The God of Will stared at Arlene’s figure and turned away. This was a very familiar scene to him. He intended to leave right away to avoid being caught and embarrassed.

‘Of course, this is only natural. After all, the God of Cooking made it herself.’

In his mind, he thought that others would not believe he contributed much. He just struck the muyu for 175 days. Unlike them, his body and mind did not recover. In fact, he might just be the one who suffered the most during this time.

‘Everyone values the things that they can see.’

In the end, it was the God of Cooking who had broken through her limits and created the most incredible dish in the world. He should be satisfied that he was able to keep his position, no? However, he still felt a bit sad.

‘The only thing I’m good at is repeating something.’

The God of Will was weak.

‘Even so, it would be good if I could at least receive a bit of recognition, no?’

He was a weak person who would be satisfied if someone recognized his hard work. He looked at the person standing in the spotlight enviously before turning around. Just as he was about to weave through the crowd silently, a voice rang loudly behind him.

“God of Will! I truly admire and respect you! You’re the only one who can endure 175 days of repetitive actions without any mental or physical recovery!”

When he turned to look in the direction from which the sound came, he saw Minhyuk smiling at him.

At the same time, another commotion broke out among the gods and celestial dwellers.

“The God of Will endured for 175 days without using any abilities...?”

“No... is that even possible?”

“Of course, he has recovered to some extent. Still, it’s nowhere near enough. Why? Because the God of Will had used his abilities to help us with recovery instead,” Minhyuk said loudly. He shrugged his shoulders as if it was none of his business, yet spoke clearly and loudly as if he wanted everyone to hear.

“Wow. God of Will! You’re really amazing.”

“You have my respect.”

“How did you do that? You’re really amazing to be able to endure that much! How were you able to develop such great endurance and persistence?”

The God of Will was left dumbfounded by the sudden attention that he received for the first time in his life. Flustered, he did not know how to respond. He could only mutter, ‘Huh? Ah...? R, right...’ every now and then.

He, who still lacked confidence, was stunned by the attention. But a bright and wide smile bloomed on his face when he saw the smile on Minhyuk’s face.

At that moment, the voice of a being rang in the God of Will’s ears.

***

Minhyuk looked at the God of Will smiling awkwardly while being surrounded by countless gods and celestial dwellers. Although the God of Will looked uncomfortable, Minhyuk knew that everyone would want their effort and hard work to be recognized. That was why he did this. After all, this was the only thing that he could do for the god.

[You can get one of the Absolute Gods’ skills as a reward for the Battle God’s hard work.]

‘Who should I choose?’

The choice was between the God of Will and the God of Cooking. There was a high chance that either of the two would give him an outstanding skill.

‘I’ll talk about this with them tomorrow.’

Minhyuk did not want to spoil their fun. Just then...

[A new Pillar has been born to the world.]

“...?!”

“...!”

“...!”

The sound that resonated all over the world left the entire Athenae in shock.

“Who?”

“Who is it?!”

All of the gods and the celestial dwellers present perked their ears up, curious about the name of the new Pillar that was born somewhere away from their gaze.

[His awakening began when he finally realized his true worth.]

[Born from the God of Origin, he was a weakling who did not have anything that he was good at.]

[He was someone who had always looked at others’ exceptional talents and abilities with both envy and admiration.]

[That was why he kept on repeating what he did. He worked ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times harder than others until he became the Absolute God, the God of Will.]

Everyone’s eyes turned to the God of Will standing at the center of the crowd.

To be honest, the God of Will still found it hard to believe. Chaos’ voice was ringing in his ears—the very same voice that only rings in the ears of the chosen ones.

–God of Will. Become a Pillar. You have more than enough qualifications to become one.

“Heok?!”

“Keok?!”

“The God of Will?!”

Everyone looked at the God of Will.

The God of Will was not confident in himself yet. In fact, he was even ashamed of himself. He had been constantly doubting himself. He wondered if he truly deserved the position that he was standing on or if he had made the right choice. He wondered if he could take the countless voices that would question him while saying that gods should not become Pillars.

The God of Will unknowingly bowed his head, afraid of what was to come.

Then, loud cheers erupted all around him.

“WAAAAAAAAH!!!”

“The God of Will became a Pillar!”

“Yes! Yes! If it’s the God of Will, then he’s more than qualified to be a Pillar!”

“Long live!”

“Long liveeeeee!!!”

The shouts of the celestial dwellers and the soldiers of the Heavenly Army thundered.

Stunned, the God of Will looked up. He smiled faintly as he looked at the people cheering for him, his shoulders and back straightening. For the first time, the God of Will ushered in changes to his poor and humble appearance.

[He will play the most significant role as a pillar that supports the world.]

[He is a role model to humans, gods, and all other races in existence.]

[He is the one who supports the will, effort, and hard work that are deeply embedded in everyone’s lives.]

‘No. Not yet.’ The God of Will mouthed at Minhyuk.

Minhyuk, who understood what he meant, hurriedly took action as the notification echoed all over the world.

[The name of the new Pillar is...]

[The Persistent. Beladon.]

Meanwhile, Minhyuk listened to the notifications that rang in his ears.

[You have chosen to obtain one of the skills of the God of Will.]

[There have been changes to the God of Will’s position.]

[He has become one of the Pillars, The Persistent.]

[Only with the approval of The Persistent will you be able to obtain the skill.]

The person who had risen from the lowest position to the highest position looked at Minhyuk and nodded.

[The Persistent has given his approval.]

[You will be able to obtain one of the skills of The Persistent.]
