The 5 of the most dangerous villains of Manhwa

Generally, in most manhwa, the presence of a god indicates the presence of a large power system, as well as a cast that will likely have multiple overpowered characters, including the protagonist. Therefore, where there is power, there is the likelihood of a power clash between opposing forces, usually in the form of good versus evil.

However, this piece focuses on the evil side of things, specifically evil gods. These entities have surpassed humanity and achieved transcendence simply by being created as they are or have achieved their deity status by accumulating unimaginable powers and using these powers to pursue their endless selfish interests at the expense of other characters. So, regarding these gods, below is a list of the most evil gods in Manhwa.

5 Tartarus: Doom Breaker

Demon monarch

The God of Destruction, Tartarus, is the main and final antagonist of the Pain in the ass series. True to his title, Tartarus desires the destruction of every world in existence. As an existence that lives for the sole purpose of destruction, Tartarus is responsible for the annihilation of countless worlds, and the world of Zephyr is just one of many upon which he wishes to inflict the same fate.

Very little is known about him or how he came to be before the story begins; however, the only certain thing about him is his absolute contempt for humans whom he defines as inferior. Tartarus is not a being who wants to be worshiped, he simply craves wanton destruction and will do anything to achieve this in the world of the story. A silver lining to his evil nature is probably the simple way he seeks destruction, even though his supposed followers in the story use many indirect methods to achieve their goals.

4 Moyong Yul-Cheon – The Legend of the Northern Blade

The Immortal

• Strongest Skill: Nine Eternal Spirits Divine Art

The immortal being and controller of the world of gods The Legend of the Blade of the North series, Moyong Yul-Cheon is the main and final villain of the story and, technically, the creator of the story's universe. While his deity is a quibble, Moyong is easily the worst of all the candidates in this piece. Before achieving immortality, Moyong's origins are a life of savage and brutally bloody survival and self-taught martial arts alongside his twin brother. However, after becoming too powerful and achieving transcendence, Moyong has come to see everything beneath him as usable and disposable.

Unable to be killed and desperate to satiate his ever-increasing boredom, Moyong began to play the role of god by first creating the Central Heavenly Alliance, then the Northern Heavenly Sect, and finally the Silent Night. All of these are the main opposing forces of the story, all trying to curb its boredom. A highly manipulative and sadistic being, Moyong, has no grand plans other than to control the martial world, a plan he had since realized following the creation of the Silent Night. He simply orchestrates a world full of conflict, suffering, and endless bloodshed for his own trivial entertainment.

3 Zeus: leveling with the gods

Ruler of the sky

• Strongest Skill: Lightning

The ruler of the heavens and king of Olympus, Zeus is the self-proclaimed ruler of the Tower in Level with the gods. Father of Hargaan and Hercules, Zeus' role in the story is neither good nor evil but something in between, as he is simply an entity obsessed with overcoming the Tower. However, the actions needed to achieve his goals earned him the placement. Extremely cautious and highly calculating, Zeus is a being who prioritizes logic and rationality. However, his rationality includes some of the most heinous and vile acts in the Tower's history, such as the Gigantomachy.

Being the father of many ranks, Zeus used and disposed of his children and others as nothing more than pawns for his plans, viewing them as stepping stones towards his great goal. As the strongest character in all of Olympus, Zeus is terribly strong, and his overwhelming strength is the foundation of his twisted morality. However, overwhelming power is only half of his true capabilities. The Olympian genius, Zeus is an irrationally calculating and manipulative deity who, for all his power, prefers to act behind the scenes, using his followers and his children as hands and feet to achieve his goals and never directly taking responsibility responsibility for nothing.

2 God – God's Game

N/A

• Strongest Skill: Omniscience

The creator and supervisor of the God's gamea series of brutal, bloody, and hellish games participated in by specific humans and deities, where the winner receives a wish as the last remaining survivor, God is the main and final villain of the story. While the existence of God's Game is reason enough to justify inclusion in this list, on the surface it only takes place to serve the fun and entertainment of the supreme deity. The true purpose of God's game turns out to be as complex as the being behind it.

An authoritarian and evil deity, God runs the God Game as his chessboard without regard or concern for the beings forced to participate in the cruel game as long as it serves him no purpose. As an entity of unlimited power, he has no patience for challenge, no matter how small, and does not hesitate to use the game as a measure of punishment as he does with Son Wukong. Surprisingly, his origins are unknown as he is an existence described by other gods as someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and subjugated every other god in existence simply because he could.

1 Park Mubong – High School God

The Supreme God among the Gods

• Strongest Skill: Longinus

Originally a human called Park Mujin, Park Mubong is the ultimate villain of the High school god series and the Supreme God. Former member of the Six, Mubong, initially appears as a simply overly ambitious person who would do anything to achieve his goals, and that is indeed the kind of person he was as a human being. However, after achieving the status of Supreme God, Mubong's cruelty grows infinitely because he is the most powerful being in the universe.

While all of his actions leading up to becoming were supposed to preserve humanity as its savior, Mubong completely abandons those he sought to protect, claiming that humans were as hopeless as the other gods had suggested. Her disgust with “old humanity” is so severe that she willingly sacrificed her unborn child to ensure humanity's destruction. While it could be argued that his motivations retained a sense of logic and rationality, the heinous acts committed to achieve them are too great not to earn him placement on this list.
