Chapter 201: What Did You Just Say? (4)

Chapter 201 - What Did You Just Say? (4)

“Guisoon.”

Park Guisoon! Her real name was Yoojin, but somehow, she had become Guisoon. The Secretary trembled. Lee Gun was in front of her with a bright smile that revealed his white teeth.

At most, he looked like a 20-year-old. He had a baby face that could be mistaken for a high schooler’s face. Unlike his youthful face, however, he possessed a muscular body underneath his clothes. And it would be an absolute mistake to trust his kind tone of voice and his innocent smile.

‘He’s the god of calamity.’

The Zodiacs were a diverse group, but this guy was the worst. If the Secretary let her guard down, she didn’t know what nonsense he would pull on her.

Lee Gun smiled as if was truly enjoying this. The corner of his mouth lifted three millimeters higher than normal.

‘I’m dead.’

She had tried to bring down the temple of the Serpent Bearer! She had also wanted Hugo to kill Lee Gun!

In the end, the Secretary let out her most affectionate laughter; she was doing her best to survive. “I mean… Lee Gun-nim! They suddenly invaded, so I had no choice— Ahhhhk!!”

The Secretary screamed. A familiar pain that she had forgotten about stabbed at the back of her hand.

At the same time, the familiar fountain pen roared.

[Boo-ohhhhhhh!]

The fountain pen was enraged. After teaming up with the unknown civilization, Guisoon had managed to temporarily escape the clutches of the fountain pen.

[“Rest” given by Abundance]

When it received the power of the monarch, the fountain pen was put in top shape, and it had to sleep.

That was how the Secretary could avoid being detected by the fountain pen while approaching Hugo.

[The fountain roars and asks how could she betray it and meet up with the monsters.]

[The fountain pen is angry. Aside from itself, how dare you try to betray its parent.]

The Secretary screamed. Unlike its normal point, the pen’s tip changed into a sharp blade.

Flash!

[The fountain pen has transformed.]

[The Serpent Bearer’s Sharpness and Critical Hit special attributes have been applied.]

Finally, the fountain pen had turned into a weapon, and it was about to charge toward the Secretary!

Tuhk!

But Lee Gun grabbed it. “Woah, Woah! Not yet, Fountain pen. You’re a good boy.”

[Boo-ohhhhhhhhh!!!]

The fountain pen was stopped right before the Secretary’s eye. It roared into the air.

[The fountain pen cannot raise its head in front of its parent. This sin cannot be washed away.]

[The fountain pen says it’ll die with her.]

“Yes, yes! I understand how you feel.”

When the Secretary saw the fountain pen in Lee Gun’s grasp, she let out a sigh of relief. She could extrapolate Lee Gun’s intention through his actions.

‘Yes. There is no way Lee Gun would give up on the power of a Secretary.’

That meant she could do anything and she wouldn’t be killed! And so, the Secretary’s eyes flashed as she was about to use her power, but…

Pahng!

Something flew past her ear to embed itself on the wall. The long piece of metal shook next to the Secretary’s face. This item was none other than the necktie pin!

“Huhk….”

Hugo had thrown it.

The Secretary had made the situation look like Hugo had received the necktie pin as a present from his wife.

The Secretary trembled when she felt the red murderous intent infused within the pin. Moreover, the pin hadn’t been thrown at random. It had crushed a fly that was stuck to the wall.

When she turned her shocked gaze toward him, Hugo let out a cold smile. “Gun might not kill you, but that isn’t the case with me. Don’t do anything funny.”

“…!”

The Secretary froze when she felt Hugo’s murderous intent. Since she was similar to Yooha in age, Hugo had treated her like his daughter. Hugo would secretly give the Secretary snacks since she was working hard. And since he was being nice, the Secretary hadn’t gotten an accurate picture.

‘Damn it! When it comes to a problem involving his friend….!’

No! Them being friends wasn’t the problem; the problem was his faith.

‘In the first place, a faith of 550% makes no sense.’

Of course, this figure was merely a picture in time.

The Secretary cursed. How could faith be restored using alcohol?

‘Alcohol isn’t some magic elixir.’

Could it be alcohol refilled faith?

Oblivious to her thought, Hugo said, “I’m not like Gun. I won’t go easy on you, so don’t even think about pulling anything funny— Kuhk!!”

Hugo was sneering when Lee Gun hit him.

Boohoo-gahk!

Hugo became angry when his forehead was almost destroyed. “For what!!!”

“Idiot. You were influenced by them, and it made your hatred go up. Why are you acting so high and mighty?”

“I… I intentionally acted that way so that I could bring out the hidden enemies…!”

“What? Your eyes were flipped over as you tried to stab me with a butter knife.”

“…!”

That was why Lee Gun had become interested in the power of the Abundance Monarch.

Poohk!

“Ahk!” The Secretary screamed.

The slim point of the fountain pen touched her neck. Of course, it didn’t pierce through her neck.

The fountain pen was trying to charge forward, but Lee Gun held onto it as he modulated his strength. And his eyes flashed coldly. “Of course, I can kill her. Why do you think I can’t?”

“…!”

Lee Gun’s eyes narrowed in contempt when he saw the Secretary’s surprise. “What? Is that what you thought? Don’t get it twisted. I already have a lot of people who can work as my Secretary.”

“…!”

The Secretary was stricken with fear. It was as Lee Gun had said. They just didn’t know how to be one, but Yooha and Sungjae had the blood of a Secretary since Chun Jiwoo was a Secretary.

Above all else, the Secretary could see the truth in Lee Gun’s eyes.

“If you want to live, you have to give me a reason not to kill you. If I don’t like what you say, I’ll let this go.”

The Secretary gulped as the fountain pen roared while pressing against her neck. In the end, she gave up thinking about getting one over Lee Gun’s head. Clenching her eyes shut, she said, “I can manipulate the bible of the monarchs!”

“!”

The eyes of Lee Gun and Hugo turned round. It was to be expected.

“What? The other side has bibles? You knew about it, yet you hid it from us?”

When magical energy emanated from Hugo’s body, the Secretary shook as she clenched her eyes shut again.

“No! I learned that when I cooperated with them this once…! Instead of a bible of a Zodiac, those items are closer to commandments. However, they do have something similar! You’ll have an easier time getting a handle on the unknown civilization with it…! I can see their weaknesses! I may be able to steal their abilities!”

Lee Gun was quite interested. “Are you really telling the truth?”

“Yes! I was able to steal a glance at their original texts through the cockroach! I’m sure of it! Of course, I couldn’t see anything important since the cockroach was too low in rank!”

Lee Gun’s eyes flashed. “If I bring you someone stronger, you’ll be able to see something important that’ll affect the monarchs, right?”

“I guess… You can threaten them to bring the original text then…”

“You said you saw it directly through the cockroach. I’ll go capture a general, so you can see it for yourself. Then you can manipulate it.”

“I… I would have to put my life on the line to…!”

“Who cares! You can put your life on the line.”

“?!!!”

Lee Gun decided to spare the Secretary for now, and the Secretary started to cry. Lee Gun had just planned to scare her to teach her a lesson; he didn’t have plans to kill her. Why?

The reason was his bible.

[Marry Me, Uncle. Marry Me, Uncle. Marry Me, Uncle]

- Effect: The Serpent Bearer will take an interest in his disciple.

That was an original text of the bible, and the Secretary had changed it to a more normal(?) text.

[The disciple says, “The Serpent Bearer is cool enough for marriage.” She compliments him.] (Modified)

- Effect: Increase in the Serpent Bearer’s Charisma (Massive increase in the probability of recruitment.)

It was the same for Sungjae.

[Uncle is so cool. Huff, Huff! Uncle is so cool. Huff, huff!]

- Effect: Serpent Bearer’s Fatal Temptation (Fatal Fiendishness that makes everyone, including males, fall for the Serpent Bearer at first sight.)

▶

[Serpent Bearer’s greatness is like the light.]

- Effect: Light effect (Faith temporarily increases)

All this was to be expected since one had to have at least 100% faith to join the temple of the Serpent Bearer.

The basic requirement brought in fanatics, so the probability of something more unimaginable being written was high.

The Secretary was shocked by the fanatic notes written by the Chun siblings, so she had changed them into something more normal.

‘If I let it be, it’ll be a big trouble for me later on.’

Lee Gun didn’t want to get jumped by his niece and nephew. Therefore, his Secretary had to be normal.

‘I’ll just upgrade the fountain pen so that it can monitor her.’

Moreover, Lee Gun had realized something when he saw the Secretary organize his bible. Although she said she didn’t like doing it, the results showed that she had modified the texts to make them advantageous for Lee Gun.

‘Well, it might have to do with Hailey asking her to do it.’

Lee Gun didn’t know the reason, but her faith was slowly rising too.

Of course, Hugo furrowed his brows as he couldn’t accept it. Nevertheless, he soon shrugged as if it didn’t matter. “Well, alright. It doesn’t matter what nonsense you try to pull in the future. You’ll have a hard time escaping my tracking.”

The Secretary shook when she saw the look in Hugo’s eyes. He didn’t need to say anything further. She knew how terrifying it was to be centered on the crosshairs of the Archer Saint.

‘He’ll shoot and kill me with an arrow even if I run away to the opposite side of the earth.’

It all had to do with his high faith.

This made the Secretary angry. “Are you a pushover?! How can your faith be so high?”

Hugo clicked his tongue, as if she were asking a frivolous question. “Since I’m his friend, it’s probably higher than most. Still, it should be around 60 percent.”

The Secretary was so dumbfounded that she almost forgot to breathe. What? Sixty percent? Sixty?????

Hugo seemed to have read the skepticism in her expression, so he cleared his throat. Although he had spoken it, it seemed he did feel a bit of shame. “Yes. It’s probably 70 percent. I know it. At the end of the day, Gun does do some cool stuff from time to time.”

The Secretary had suffered greatly because of Hugo’s faith. Thus, she was as angry as she could be. “Really!! You…!”

“Anyway, Gun won’t go easy on you because you’re a girl. Do not become a habitual line stepper.”

“I know his personality— What?” The Secretary flinched. She thought she had heard wrong, but that wasn’t the case when she looked at Hugo’s expression.

Hugo looked to see if Lee Gun would speak or not. He scoffed. “Information Distortion? I’m not completely immune to it, but you shouldn’t look down on my years of experience as an adult.”

“…?!

“Well, Gun would never get it since he doesn’t have kids…”

“What do you mean he doesn’t have a kid? He has one.”

“What?”

“Carl— Ooh-oop!!!”

Hugo quickly placed a hand over the Secretary’s mouth. After sending Lee Gun off to the side, he pulled the Secretary to a safe distance, then asked, “Hey. What are you talking about?”

Of course, he didn’t think the Secretary was telling it straight. However, Hugo had an oddly ominous feeling. That was why he had dragged the Secretary here.

The Secretary… No, Guisoon replied, “What do you mean, what? Carly! She called him Dad! I thought something was off, so I used my ability to break down the past. I wanted to see if he had a hidden child or not. However, it seems Aquarius took his DNA— Oohp!!!”

Hugo quickly shut the Secretary’s mouth. Aquarius! Lee Gun’s DNA! Just those two phrases were enough of an explanation.

Recently, they had heard the information that the Aquarius had tried to make Lee Gun’s son, like a homunculus. The process had failed, and it became known that Lee Gun’s son didn’t exist.

At the same time, Hugo became angry.

‘Giselle… That woman…’

He should have known it when he realized Carly was so strong!

‘Yes. His DNA is present.?’

Anyway, that wasn’t important right now.

‘I have to hide it.’

If Lee Gun found out about this matter, it would cause a mess beyond proportion. Hugo didn’t think he could deal with the aftermath.

At that moment, Lee Gun gestured with his hand. “Come here for a moment, Guisoon. I have a question—”

“Gun!!! This isn’t the time for you to be doing this! You have to hurry up and go to your holy ground!!”

“What?”

“Enemies might be headed toward your holy ground!!”

“I’ll know immediately if they do. I can use my Return skill—”

“You have to go heal Kevin!!!!”

Lee Gun looked taken aback as if Hugo were talking nonsense. “I already sent my Super Regeneration skill to him?”

“No! You should see him for yourself!!! He’s an affiliate disciple now! Wow! How can you just send a skill? Aren’t you worried about him??”

Lee Gun’s expression was a sight to behold. “Hey, when did you start caring so much about him…”

“Wow!!! I feel sorry for poor Kevin! I’m really worried about him!! Hurry! Let’s go! You better not think about following us, Guisoon!”

“?????”

Boom!!

Suddenly, a large shock wave spread around, and everyone shook. The land split, and light exploded forth in the distance. Then, a golden army revealed itself.

[Warning! The army of Abundance has revealed itself.]
