The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 380
“Didn’t you hear the news? The ruler of our floor has died!” one of the criminals named Jason was shouting in the streets, gathering the attention of many. “The time has come when people are going to fight for the throne of the veil. The martial arts are going to come in handy more so than ever right now. Those who are interested can learn sword skills from me. Simple moves cost ten gold. Complex moves cost a hundred to a thousand gold!”“Isn’t a thousand gold too much?” someone from the crowd asked. “All you’re going to teach is a few tricks and tips anyway, so why charge so much money?”“Hahah,” Jason laughed out loud. “We live in a world of good and evil, Brother. The minute someone discovers how to help mankind, they never tell you hundred percent how it is done because of money. But I’m still willing to teach you everything if you give me as much as I asked for. So you should be happy instead.”Ulmer was also among the crowd. (His words contradict himself. He’s not going to teac
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 381
The first level was also known as the Brawlers land, thanks to the infamous Brawlers Arena.Champion brawlers fought the challengers all day and night to entertain the violent crowd. They were all drunk on violence and danger, swinging their fists even when sitting in the audience seats.When Ulmer entered the big stadium, a staff member came to him and said, “Do you want to bet on the contestants?”“Can I participate?” Ulmer asked.“Oh, of course, but you need to pay 1 gold coin,” she replied. “For every match you win, you will double the amount. If you win five matches in a row, you can challenge one of the champions.”“Can’t I just fight the champion?”“Haha, you can but you should pay 100 gold for that,” she said. “Do you have that much money?”Ulmer took out a sack of silver coins. “There’s exactly 100 gold inside.”The woman was shocked by it. “P-Please come to the VIP section, sir. We’ll arrange a fight for you soon.”Ulmer sat in the VIP section, and the manager of the arena

“Even Heavy Kong couldn’t put up a fight against this guy!”“Just who the hell is this Beast Hunter?”“Where did he come from?”“He’s only using raw strength and technique to counter all the opponents, so even if he’s from the deeper floors, no one can complain about it!”“Yeah, as long as they don’t use supernatural skills, they can fight in these rings, too, as most of the champions have superhuman strength.”“But the shocking thing is that he doesn’t even look the least bit tired! At this rate, he might even break the record win streak!”Ulmer defeated thirty champions in a row, and he didn’t even break a sweat.“What was the record again?”“It’s 51 wins.”“Oh, there’s still some way to go for him then.”Ulmer’s 31st opponent was a female champion with a big muscular build. She was also almost six-feet tall.“It’s the Big Beauty!”“The most beautiful champion in Brawlers Arena!”The crowd wildly rooted for her.Ulmer raised his eyebrows. “What’s beautiful about her? She looks way t

A whirlwind of fists saw Ulmer destroy the next champions. He felled one after another and breezed his way to 51 victories, equaling the best win streak in Brawlers Arena. In this process, he lay tens of champions incapacitated.“Did you see those punches? They were strong yet fluid and precise, like a dance of controlled chaos!”“He really is a beast!”The matches were telecasted live on many levels of Crimia, so the fame of Beast Hunter soared like an eagle, its cry echoing through the layered depths of The Little Abyss. Whispers of his power traveled along the corridors, clubs, and canteens, sparking the interest of both thugs and the terrible dark forces entrenched deeper within the underground city.The live viewership of Brawlers Arena reached an all-time high.And there were some people already wondering if this newly-appeared Beast Hunter was the one who killed the Nine Veils.However, most of them didn’t even consider that possibility as it was too absurd to even think. After

“B-Brawler King has been defeated!” The match presenter spoke through the mic, displaying his shock through his voice as well as his face.“Unbelievable!”“How can he lose so easily?”“Just how strong is this Beast Hunter?”“It doesn’t matter because I bet on him, haha! I’m rich now!”As the crowd went wild for different reasons, Ulmer pulled Greg up by his hair. “He’s not Brawler King,” Ulmer sent spiritual energy into Greg’s body, which forcibly reversed his transformation.‘The entire crowd was shocked by it.“T-That’s Greg the Blood Assassin!”“Why is a monster from level 56 here on the first level?”“W-Wait, if he can defeat that monstrous guy Greg so easily, then how strong is Beast Hunter exactly?”“He’s so much stronger than we all thought! No wonder he managed to break the win record!”“What is your real name?”“Yeah, tell us your real name, Beast Hunter!”The crowd demanded him to disclose his real name, but Ulmer let go of Greg and said, “If I tell you who I am, it wouldn’t
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 385
Lera seemingly attacked him from the front with a swift punch, but it was a feint. She changed her form to a kicking motion and landed a strike on his shoulder.Her intention was to send Gabe to the ground, but Gabe stood unmoved.Gabe waved his hand before his nose. “When was the last time you washed your feet? They smell pretty bad.”“You…” Lera flashed behind him and went for a thrust in his spine. Her intention was not to kill but to cripple him.She managed to strike his back, but it was her nails that bent and broke to bits. Except her thumb finger, the other fingers lost their nails.Nevertheless, the nails quickly regrew. She attacked him once more from behind.Ulmer swiveled quickly and tried to grab her hand, but she changed her movement midway and attacked him from another direction.Ulmer still was able to block her attack, but he looked surprised. “How are you able to change your speed so smoothly? Your subordinate also did something similar. You two are able to somehow c
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 386
Ulmer saw one shocking thing after another. One disgusting thing after another such as people eating live pig fish by digging their faces into the pig’s open abdomen. It was like a game for these criminals. They were having fun, burying their faces into the insides of the pigs and painting themselves with the blood of these animals. They were taking pictures of one another.They were keeping hundreds of mice in cages and were selling them like snacks. The people would eat them alive like cats would, starting by crunching on the heads of these mice and then devouring them down to the ends of their tails.However, the one that stunned him and shook Ulmer to the core were the faces of the children that were being extracted on the second level.Their faces were removed from their dead bodies and were kept safely in labs, which were then used by the wealthy, old people to do face transplants.It was quite disturbing for Ulmer to see old people feeling good and proud of themselves after get
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 387
Ulmer’s exploration through the labyrinth-like third level wasn’t as easy as he had hoped.Many gangs attacked him, and he had to deal with them.A gang of smugglers who followed him from the second level also attacked him from behind. However, they couldn’t withstand Ulmer’s ferocity. He grabbed the first person and threw him like a projectile to knock down three more people.Another gangster attacked with a knife. Ulmer sidestepped deftly and struck his arm, which dropped the knife to the ground. A slap to the chest sent that man flying and crashing into two more people.The next person that attacked him was sent sprawling against the crater-esque wall. The wall did not break because the craters were made out of sturdy black teak wood which could last for centuries.All of those gangsters learned their lesson and ran away.Ulmer continued his journey through the labyrinth. “There are only a few slaves here from as far as I can see. Even though they’re creating a lot of items, it’s s

EPILOGUE
A few months later.Ben and Amelie not only started their business together but also got married, and Ivy as usual caused a lot of noise during the marriage, asking Ross Richard to give her son this and that.Ross had to give in to her demands because of his daughter Amelie.Ivy’s brother took some gold from her and started a restaurant business because Ulmer had commanded him to stop his finance business as he was sucking people’s blood with it. His wife didn’t like it and went back to her home, but she would eventually return to his side a few years later, after her mother would die.Rick Orsini’s right-hand man, Lexor, was sitting alone on the rooftop of a big hotel, reading the online news on his tablet.“Someone called Urban God joined the Underworld Kings competition?” Lexor raised his eyebrows. “If he’s the real deal, no one will be able to stop him.”Underworld Kings was a world-wide martial arts competition where people with all kinds of superpowers competed, with loose rules

“Your wife?!”“That girl who looks younger than Ruth is your wife?” Ivy quickly said. “Are you out of your mind, Ulmer?”“She’s 19,” Ulmer coldly glanced at her. “So, what’s the problem?”“T-That’s…” Ivy found her throat shaking. His gaze felt intimidating. “I-Isn’t there too much age gap between you two?”“What bullshit are you saying, Ivy?” Mollie snorted. “My grandson is not even thirty, and you say there’s an age gap? Can’t you see that they both look nice next to one another? Also, it’s actually nice if there's a five to six year gap between the husband and wife.”Mollie gently held Ayana’s cheeks and lifted up her head.“Where did you hide such a pretty girl all this time from us, Ulmer?” Mollie said. “You will get punished for this later.”“Ulmer always talks greatly about you, Grandmother,” Ayana said. “So, please forgive him this once.”“Hahaha,” Mollie laughed heartily. “Your wife is already defending you so much, Ulmer. She’s not just beautiful but also smart. I think it’s
CHAPTER 478
The news of so many Thorns dying did not get leaked in the underworld, much less to the common public.However, some of the topdogs in the underworld eventually heard of the heart-shaking news that more than half of the thorns died in the hands of someone called the Urban God.And the title Urban God started to be feared by those who have heard about it.Also, a new bounty appeared on the Urban God, whose name and face were kept hidden by the thorns on purpose.His current bounty was a quadrillion dollars, twice as much as the current world’s known wealth.The amount was so ridiculous and crazy that many bounty hunters thought it was just a fake bounty. A scam. A joke.But then there were those who believed that it could be real and started to investigate the name Urban God. However, most of them would give up on their search the more they learned about the recent history of the Urban God.A few weeks after Crimia was buried from the hidden face of the earth.Minerva had woken up, but

At around two in the night, the vibrations stopped, and the people finally were able to breathe freely.Many of them went back into their homes and slept. Some still stayed outside, afraid of the quake happening again.Around three in the night, Dark Monarch arrived at the Bronich city, but he was surprised to find out that the entire Crimia had been buried by mud. All the entrances were sealed off by mud.“What the hell just happened here in the time I was gone? Was he responsible for this?”Just then, he looked up into the sky.Miles high in the sky, Abbie was flying away with her mother’s body in her arms, her expression dark and desolate under moonlight.“Isn’t that…”Suddenly, immense pressure was put on his body.“Gravity Cage…” Ulmer appeared next to him.Dark Monarch’s body was crushed from every angle by pressure he had never experienced before. He screamed at the top of his lungs.“You should have never returned,” Ulmer did not spare even an inkling of mercy on him. “Gravity

“She’s going to live,” the royal healer, Irvi, an old lady with poisonous pimples all over her face, said. She was 120 years old but was still able to stand straight. However, her voice was not steady. She was observing Minerva’s pulse.Minerva was lying on the bed in the medical chambers not far from the royal palace.“However, her system has integrated with her body, so we can’t take it out,” Irvi said. “If we do it right now, she will die.”“Is it not possible to separate the system without killing her?” Ulmer asked.“It is, but that’s only possible when she overcomes the system?” Irvi responded. “The chances of that ever happening are slim.”Ulmer frowned but then said, “Do what you can to heal her.”“I will. That’s my job, after all,” Irvi said. “No matter how wicked a person may be, if they come to my doorstep, I will not turn my back toward them.”Ulmer slightly bowed his head to her and walked out onto the balcony of that building, where Minerva’s dad, Neodus was present.“I t

The vines suddenly dashed at Ulmer from behind.Ulmer didn’t even move an inch and stood unmoving.The vines rushed past him at a terrific speed and pierced Minerva’s body everywhere. She coughed out a lot of blood.“I didn’t want my blood on your hands,” she tried to smile despite the pain coursing through her body. “I’m… really sorry… for everything.”She was collapsing forward.Ulmer let go of the sword and held her shoulders, stopping her from falling to the ground.Minerva’s eyes began to turn completely dark. The vines that pierced her body began to turn direction and then pierced through Ulmer’s body from behind.Blood rushed to Ulmer’s mouth, but kept his mouth shut. Still, blood slowly leaked from a corner of his mouth.He sent a mental message to her. “It’s okay…”He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her.Minerva’s eyes shed more tears, and the blackness in her eyes began to disperse slowly but surely.In a few moments, Minerva’s eyes closed.He could still feel her spi
CHAPTER 474
Minerva thought she could kidnap Ulmer’s family but now realized that she was the one who was tricked by him.He was already well prepared for her.And he wasn’t going to let her harm his family twice.However, now that Ulmer was looking up at her, both sadness and anger filled his eyes.What has become of his ex-girlfriend? Someone with whom he had gone shopping with? Someone who seemed so innocent and lovely when he first met her?Remembering the times when they both went to a jewelry shop, and she studded herself with all kinds of gold and acted like a royal made Ulmer laugh heartily back then.He thought he fell in love with the best girl there was.But look, what has become of her now?She was reduced to someone who would hypnotize a little girl in order to lure Ulmer’s relatives out of the house.Even though Ulmer was just standing, he felt his heart strings playing hard to the point they were hurting because he knew that the time was near.“U-Ulmer…” Minerva could feel his emot
CHAPTER 473
The Drunken Disaster Dionysus, the Wild King Enkidu, the Snake-haired Perseus, the Moon Goddess Artemis, the Sun God Apollo, the War Goddess Ishtar, and the one standing in front of them all and more was the mighty, monstrous King of Heroes Gilgamesh who stood nearly six meters tall.Not one of them could be called anything less than a monster.They were all absolute powerhouses, who made a name for themselves around the world in their times.Some of their powers transcended common sense and logic.“How dare a mere artificial system holder stand in our path? Know your place, vermin!” Ishtar, the war goddess, who looked extremely seductive as well as scary, squinted her eyes, releasing a powerful wave of energy that was supposed to suppress her opponent.Ulmer felt goosebumps all over. “Whooo… that tingles.” He smiled with excitement. (She saw through my system with a glance. I don’t know who she is, but she’s very dangerous. It’s not just her….) His gaze fell on others. (They are all
