Chapter 269: Oblivion (3)

Oblivion had stolen the existence of Lee Gun from the people of the world. It had even stolen his memories, including everything about himself, his friends, and even his enemies.

This had happened because Lee Gun had been swallowed by Oblivion before.

Oblivion had probably stolen numerous memories from Lee Gun’s head using the data from before as a foothold.

The monarch made sure anyone it swallowed would be forgotten, but it also stole the memories from the one it swallowed.

Therefore, even Lee Gun would have lost his memories. That was why Hugo had been trying to do everything to protect his friend.

If Lee Gun had lost his memories, that meant he had forgotten about his powers too! It would be like twenty years ago, when Lee Gun had lost all sensation.

So, whenever they encountered even a bit of danger, Hugo had been the first one to step forward.

“Gun! The ground on that road is dangerous! Koohk!”

Hugo had bought Lee Gun food that he normally liked in the hopes that Lee Gun would remember something about himself.

“Gun. This is the hamburger that you like. You might remember something about yourself!”

When the disciples of the criminal temple had come for revenge against Lee Gun, Hugo had guarded Lee Gun with his life!

“Gun! Look out!”

“Do you not need this, Gun? This is the brand of hat that you like!”

Anyway, Hugo had put his best foot forward. It had even caused his children to make a fuss about Lee Gun.

“Dad! Why are you taking care of only that hyung?”

“Look after us too.”

While they had been coming to this place, Hugo had gone through all kinds of efforts to bring back his friend’s memories! He had done all that!

That was why…

“Hey! I thought you lost your memories!”

When Lee Gun viciously crushed the heads of his enemies, Hugo became angry. He had thought Lee Gun had lost his power, yet Lee Gun used it so nonchalantly. He attacked, knowing where the weakness of the fairies was. Moreover, Lee Gun had said Taeksoo.

“You remember me, right!? You‘re purposefully taking everything I’m giving you, right?”

Lee Gun picked at his ear. “I have no idea what you're talking about. I don’t remember anything.”

“Wow! You should have told me if you regained your memories…” Hugo flinched. “Is this about the million Won I lent you?”

“I have no idea. I don’t remember. Who are you?”

Hugo’s eyebrows twitched in anger. “Yes. If you can’t remember it, I don’t have to give you the repair fee of a hundred thousand won, which I put on the tab, right?”

“A hundred thousand? It was 119,819 won?”

“Hey! Why do you remember the precise figure???”

In the end, Hugo grabbed Lee Gun by the collar. “Pay up! Pay me my million won! In fact, it’ll be three million won if I add everything up!”

“Why are you being like this, ahjussi? Do you know me?”

“Ahhkk!!”

At that moment, a group was freaking out, as Lee Gun had complacently killed the fairies that approached him.

[What is going on?]

[Why is he able to use his abilities?]

Yes, other fairies had accompanied the fairies that Lee Gun had killed. They were also the ones that had directed Oblivion to this place. The voices continued to speak in the air.

[That’s clearly the power of the Serpent Bearer.]

[Why is he able to activate his power?]

[All the disciples of the Serpent Bearer temple should have forgotten about him.]

Hugo and the Chun siblings flinched when they heard the voices.

The ones from before were taken care of by Lee Gun before they could do anything. These fairies were different.

‘They feel completely different from the ones from before.’

In fact, the presence of a Fairy Monarch could be felt. Therefore, they raised their guards, but they weren’t the subject of these fairies’ interest.

[I’m sure of it. Since he’s able to use his power, there must be a disciple who remembers him.]

[What? Even the Zodiac Saints of the Serpent Bearer fell for it. What crazy bastard has more faith than the Zodiac Saints?]

Lee Gun was having a hard time holding back his laughter.

Hugo glared back at him.

[This is bad! I checked it, and one disciple has managed to avoid the condition!]

[Someone avoided the condition of Oblivion? Are you saying someone with faith over 500% exists?]

[Yes, one human is left! He has 600% faith!]

[What? Six hundred percent? Which crazy bastard is it?!]

[That’s more than a fanatic. He is a sucker entrapped by the god!]

Hugo couldn’t raise his head. Lee Gun shook with laughter. He couldn’t lift his head either.

[I found him. The 600% disciple is nearby!]

[Hurry up and kill him! The Serpent Bearer can use his power since that human remembers him!]

“!”

Hugo had a realization. He had become their target. Of course, the Chun siblings realized this too.

“Noona!”

Each of the Chun siblings activated their skills.

“How dare you talk that way about our dad!”

“You won’t be able to lay a finger on the great Serpent Bearer!”

When the Chun siblings rushed forward, Lee Gun laughed as if he was pleased. “Hey kids? Are you sure you don’t need my help?”

“It’s fine! Since you’re weaker than dad, you should hide in a safe place!”

“Dad is tens of millions of times stronger than you, Hyung! He’ll protect you!”

Lee Gun kept laughing as he told Hugo that this was great. Hugo clutched at his face.

They’d create a really big stink once they regain their memories later.

Chun Sungjae warped toward his opponents, who possessed malice. He could use this skill since he used to be with the Gemini temple.

Kwah-gwang!!!

The Chun siblings knocked down suspicious objects. What they had attacked were the telephone pole and the traffic signs.

[Koohk!]

The fairies that had transformed into objects regained their original forms. At a glance, these fairies looked like elementals. They had been using the Teleport skill to bring Oblivion to this place.

The fairies, who were acting as intermediaries, ground their teeth.

[How dare they….]

The power of the Zodiac Saints should have weakened in tandem with the weakening of the Serpent Bearer’s power. However, there was almost no change to their powers because of the crazy disciple with 600% faith.

The fairies glared at Hugo.

[It’s all his fault.]

When their killing intent was directed toward Hugo, the Chun siblings attacked, but it was useless.

“!”

All of their attacks vanished in front of the fairies. Chun Sungjae glared at them since he knew the reason behind it.

‘Each fairy is equivalent to a Saint-rank magician.’

It depended on their rank, but these fairies were akin to sages. They possessed disciples, who they taught how to use their magical energy.

For fairies, sending their attacks to a different location was easy.

‘Moreover, they are directly under the Fairy Monarchs.’

Suddenly…

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.}

‘!’

The fairies started mumbling something.

Chun Sungjae did a double-take when he saw the magic circle that appeared beneath them. He used to be a magician of the Gemini temple. So he knew which spell they were using.

Therefore, Sungjae immediately teleported behind Hugo. He touched Hugo’s back, about to send Hugo somewhere else.

“Don’t use that skill!”

“!”

Chun Sungjae flinched when Lee Gun shouted at him. If he let things be, his father would be killed, but Chun Sungjae couldn’t use his skill.

For some reason, he couldn’t go against the words of the hyung in front of him.

At the same time, soldiers were summoned thirty meters in front of Hugo. They were all direct subordinates of the Fairy Monarch!

“!”

Hugo immediately jumped to dodge the attacks from his enemies.

They possessed Saint-rank attack capabilities if one looked only at their power. Of course, they were close, but Hugo knew they were nothing to him.

“Ahhk?!”

However, Hugo couldn’t lift his feet. He almost cursed as he looked down at his legs. Others couldn’t see it, but he saw that the Serpent Eater skill was encircling his legs! From the energy that could be felt from it, it wasn’t used by a mere disciple.

“Hey! Gun! Really!! Ooh-oohp!”

The Serpent Eater skill started squeezing Hugo’s body, and it even covered his mouth.

“Ooh-oop!!”

The soldiers moved toward the immobile Hugo. They were right in front of him!

[If we kill him, Oblivion’s plan will be a success—]

At that moment, Heaven’s Punishment got in between Hugo and the soldiers.

Kwahng!

[!?]

It was as if he had put up a police line. Lee Gun used Heaven’s Punishment to get in the way of the soldiers. He then grinned at the fish caught in his net.

Kwah-jeek!!!

[Kuh-huhk!]

The chains of the Serpent Eater skill erupted from the ground to encircle those who had tried to attack Hugo from the front.

Of course, the soldiers had attacked from not only the front but also the back, and the ones at the back were surprised.

“Hey! Gun! You!”

Their blades that were headed toward Hugo’s back shattered into pieces.

Hugo was shocked.

‘Defensive ability.’

He was sure of it. This was the defensive ability of the Taurus temple.

‘I know he merged with Taurus, but he already transferred all the abilities!’

As proof of this, a green light had encircled Hugo. It was like a thin barrier. The shocking part was that the light spread in the shape of snake scales.

This was why everyone was taken aback.

‘As expected, the defensive abilities changed into the Serpent Bearer’s skills.’

The Taurus temple was the only temple with defensive abilities. Even if Lee Gun was able to transfer the abilities of the Taurus temple, it would take time for those skills to be converted into Serpent Bearer skills!

That wasn’t all. Those who had their hands on Hugo’s back started to sweat.

‘The attack spell should have worked.’

However, it seemed as if Hugo didn’t feel any pain.

‘Did it defend against the pain?’

‘Pain defense?’

This was a new attribute that hadn’t been present amongst Taurus’s defensive abilities. However, the soldiers didn’t have the time to make such hasty assessments. They screamed once again as the Serpent Eater skill surged up from the floor.

[Kuh-huhk!]

The chains didn’t kill the soldiers, tightly encircling the fairies instead.

All of it had happened in an instant.

Hugo looked angry. “Gun! You kept me in place because you wanted to catch them!!”

“Of course. They are like flies. They are too fast to catch using normal means.”

“Hey!!”

“Who cares? I placed the defensive ability over you.”

“Didn’t you do it because you wanted to test out your new ability? You acquired it because of the magic-type temples.”

“Ah! I have no memory of it.”

Hugo really wanted to kill him, but it didn’t take him long to become puzzled. “Gun? Why didn’t you use Death to kill them? Why did you let them live?”

This wasn’t like Gun, but the reason behind it was soon revealed.

“I want to negotiate a bit.”

“Negotiate?”

“If I want to completely get rid of the fog, I need to kill the magician considered to be the core. It is probably a Fairy Monarch. Of course, I can kill these guys and get the fog partially dispelled. However, it’ll only end if I catch the Fairy Monarch. However, I can’t feel its presence. It has to come out for me to bring it to its knees.”

The fairies caught by the Serpent Eater skill were dumbfounded by his words.

[You’ll bring it to its knees if it comes out? You dare insult the Fairy Monarch!]

[That’s right! The previous Fairy Monarch Raeriqueen was a coward. That’s why she surrendered to you. However, you have no right to call forth our monarch!]

Chun Sungjae tried to call forth the first Fairy Monarch, which he possessed. “Uh? It isn’t responding.”

This was probably a side effect of it not being able to remember Lee Gun. The captured fairies knew this, so they laughed.

[We are the direct subordinates under the newly chosen Fairy Monarch. There is no way we’ll submit to Mimir.]

[Also, elementals were born within the fairy garden, and they possess as much life energy as the Serpent Bearer…]

At that moment, the front row of fairies became lost for words, as they saw Lee Gun’s expression.

This puzzled the fairies in the back line.

“Yes. Fairies are beings of life, so they do possess an incredible amount of life energy. Fairies of a certain rank cannot be killed. That is why I had a hard time making the Fairy Monarch called Raeriqueen submit.”

There was an odd joy in his laughter. It made the fairies tremble.

Hugo also shook from fear when he saw Lee Gun’s expression. “Gun….”

“However, that Fairy Monarch crawled and submitted on its own when its limbs were ripped away. Moreover, the life energy of its underlings was so great that I put them in an extractor. I extracted their life energy. The Fairy Monarch immediately surrendered after that.”

[?!!]

Hugo was shocked. Is that the reason Raeriqueen always fainted when it saw Lee Gun…!

“It really is too bad. Since Oblivion was called, I thought you guys would have called the Calamities here.”

[?!]

Lee Gun was referring to the siblings of the Red Eye. “I’m sure those Calamities will be able to torture even the Zodiacs of Magic.”

[Wait a…!]

“There is no way you can’t call for the Calamities when you guys were able to call for Oblivion, right?”

The fairies shook when they saw the harsh look in his eyes.

“Ah! I’m sure the Fairy Monarch can call them forth. Is it hiding nearby and watching us? Ah! Will I be able to drag out the Zodiac if I capture the Fairy Monarch?”

[!]

Lee Gun had found out this was the case through Hailey. He had contacted her earlier through Hugo’s phone.

This was why he stepped on the fairies who were entangled by the Serpent Eater skill.

“Oh yeah! I apologize. I lost my memories because of Oblivion. That is why I forgot how to go easy on you guys.”

[?!]

“I’m sorry, but I’ll work my way up one by one until your leader comes out.” Lee Gun’s eyes flashed.
