Chapter 278: You want to do this? (2)

Inside a bar in Italy, Chun Yooha’s eyes flashed. “What did you just say?”

She had snuck into the holy ground of Pisces temple, and her gaze landed on a man and a woman who were drinking beer.

With a cold expression on her face, Yooha asked the man and woman, “Say it again. What did you just say right now?”

Both of them had trailed her, and they boldly replied to her.

“You must be going deaf, Chun Yooha. Lee Gun-nim’s Zodiac Saint will be me, the Maker Temple’s Ten Star Taylor.”

“Ahhk! Idiot! I’m going to be Lee Gun-nim’s Zodiac Saint!”

An angry expression appeared on Yooha’s face.

Chun Yooha had infiltrated this area near the Pisces temple’s holy ground with her brother. Since they didn’t want to be found out, they had transformed themselves before entering this place. They couldn’t let the Pisces temple get away with speaking such nonsense.

However, two people were speaking more nonsense than the Pisces temple.

After bringing more beer, Chun Sungjae kicked out with his foot. “How dare you guys covet Uncle like this!”

“Koo-oohk!”

Chun Sungjae became angry at Carly and Taylor. “What’s up with you, Carly noona? Where the hell did you pick up this weirdo?”

Chun Sungjae had come here through teleportation, and his outer appearance was different.

Chun Yooha was a black-haired beauty, but she had transformed herself into a blonde beauty.

But Chun Sungjae also looked like a blonde beauty. He looked like a mature woman with curves in all the right places. Moreover, he looked older.

After receiving a kick from Chun Sungjae, the dumbfounded Carly got angry. “What’s up with your getup!”

“What else? Transformation is a must for infiltration, right?”

Having acquired magic ability from the Gemini temple, Chun Sungjae looked elated. With his magic abilities, he had changed his sister’s face and also his own.

“What are you trying to accomplish?”

“What do you think? I’m much prettier than Noona, right? I’ll use this to seduce Uncle.”

“…??!”

Carly was dumbfounded. Like sister, like brother.

Since Sungjae was working with a good foundation, he looked like an absolute beauty. He rivaled Yooha.

“Hmph! This is absurd. Also, what’s up with your chest? It looks like they are about to pop out.”

“What do you mean? Don’t you guys not know Uncle’s preferences? Men traditionally love a curvy body! Uncle is the same. Of course— Ooh-ahhhk! You’re going to rip them off! Don’t grab them!”

Goat, who had followed Chun Sungjae, massaged his face. Finally, the thing that he had worried about had happened.

Carly was unaffected as she scoffed. “What nonsense! There is no way Lee Gun-nim will fall for—”

“Are you jealous because mine is bigger than yours?”

“W-What?!”

Chun Sungjae always had a bad relationship with Carly. He ground his teeth. “What? You’re smaller than my sister. In many ways, you have to work harder.”

“What!!! What did you just say?” Carly’s face turned red as her hackles rose. “In what way am I smaller than Chun Yooha…!!”

She let out a silent scream as she looked at Chun Yooha. “I’ll kill you!!”

“Anyway, I’ll use this on Uncle— Ehhhk!”

Boom!

Chun Yooha ruthlessly kicked her younger brother. With a cold expression, she said to Carly and Taylor, “You guys want to become Zodiac Saints? You dare say that when you forgot Uncle because of Oblivion?”

Taylor and Carly flinched.

“That isn’t…”

“I’ll act as if I didn’t hear anything.”

“That’s right. They aren’t worth engaging…”

Carly, who had been sweating profusely, suddenly bared her teeth. “I heard you guys were being clingy toward the Archer Saint!!!”

“?!!”

This time, the Chun siblings froze.

Carly laughed. “Did you think we wouldn’t find out? You guys forgot about Lee Gun-nim and made a big deal, declaring your love for the Archer Saint!”

The siblings despaired.

“Of course, we love our dad. We love him, but…”

“Ah! That really is an embarrassing past…”

In the end, no one had anything to say, so they decided to end it on a truce.

“If we want to solidify our faith, we have to get rid of the Pisces temple.”

“Ah! Isn’t the Virgo temple’s holy ground nearby? I heard Kevin-nim took Lee Gun-nim’s body that underwent molting.”

“We have to infiltrate as Pisces disciples— What?!”

The light in everyone’s eyes changed. However, they all pretended to not have heard it.

‘I’ll keep quiet and go steal it later.’

‘Damn Virgo Saint! When the hell did he have the time to take that?’

When they were about to go over their plan once again…

“What business does the Serpent Bearer temple have here?”

“!”

A familiar face appeared in front of them.

* * *

Around that time…

“Are you Lee Gun-nim?”

A quick delivery agent had come looking for Lee Gun, having tracked Lee Gun’s location. A sound came from his watch.

[Recipient Lee Gun’s location tracking is complete.]

[Thank you very much for using the Sagittarius temple’s rental skill!]

“You have a delivery, Lee Gun-nim. Please sign here for confirmation.”

“Alright.”

Hugo raised his guard when he saw the quick delivery agent. The delivery agent had used the Sagittarius temple’s Location Tracking skill, a skill that the Sagittarius temple was proud of. It was a very useful skill used in raids and locating a person.

However, this skill was restricted for normal use. It could be used if one was wealthy, but Hugo had put a lot of strict stipulations, since the skill could be used for stalking.

This meant an SS-rank skill had to be used at the minimum to find Lee Gun’s location. Several billion won had to be paid if one wanted to use this tracking skill. There’s no way a normal civilian would pay such a price to send a fan letter. It meant…

‘An enemy sent it!’

Hugo urgently glared at the package in the delivery agent's hands. He stood up from his seat and snatched the package before Lee Gun could take it. “Gun! You’re in danger! It’s a bomb!”

“…!”

After taking the package, Hugo bent the delivery agent's arm in a takedown. “Since you have magical energy, you must have been sent by the Pisces temple. You cannot fool my eyes— Kuh-huhk!!!”

Lee Gun kicked his friend. “That’s my personal delivery agent. Get out of the way.”

“Personal delivery agent? Isn’t that person a disciple of the Pisces temple??”

Taken aback, Hugo looked at the delivery agent, but the helmeted delivery agent seemed ecstatic. “Shit! I was taken down by Hugo. It would have been better if Lee Gun had taken me down! No… It’s ok since Lee Gun-nim saw it!”

“…?!!”

Someone mumbled inside the helmet. The expressions of Hugo and Stevens changed when they realized the voice sounded familiar.

“Wait a moment. That voice…!!!”

Hugo approached the delivery agent with an incredulous expression on his face. When he tried to yank the helmet off, the delivery agent became angry and grabbed the helmet. “Let me go. How dare someone like Hugo do this to me! Ahhk!”

In the end, Stevens joined in to help. When the helmet came off, everyone was surprised by the sight.

“Heiji!!”

It was Heiji, the woman known as the blue witch. She was none other than the Zodiac Saint of the Gemini temple.

She and Lee Gun were like cats and dogs. They fought at the drop of a hat, which ended in blood being shed.

A while ago, she had been betrayed by Sungjae and gotten trapped within a figurine.

Yet, she seemed ecstatic at seeing Lee Gun right now. “It hasn’t been long, but Lee Gun-nim has become more dashing.”

The two men’s faces froze. This woman and Lee Gun were sworn enemies. She was someone who would try to stab Lee Gun on sight…!!

In the end, they had only one thing to ask.

“What the hell did you do to her, Gun?”

Lee Gun snorted as he opened the package. “I acquired several things that I had to test out.”

“What did you acquire?”

“Oblivion and Distortion.”

“…?!!”

Stevens and Hugo immediately realized what had happened.

Lee Gun’s eyes flashed like the devil. “You reap what you sow. Their leaders also used Oblivion and Distortion on me.”

Stevens and Hugo looked horror-struck.

“In the end, it didn’t work against you…”

“He’s the biggest villain….”

“Anyway, I learned something useful. Of course, I wanted to test it out.”

“Still, that’s a bit….”

“As expected, he’s a villain….”

“Oh yeah. I’m looking for the next test subject. This time, I want a male test subject.”

“Wow!!! You’re absolutely the righteous hero!”

“She deserves what she got, considering what she did to you! In fact, this is too little!”

Suddenly, Hugo asked, “Uh? Wait a moment. Why can I sense the energy of the Pisces temple…!”

“I was thinking about sending her as a spy to the Pisces.”

“!”

“Since Gemini has ceased to exist, Heiji isn’t supposed to be able to use magic. That’s why I told her to try borrowing magic from the Pisces. If she uses their magic at a high level, wouldn’t Pisces want her?”

“Then…!!”

Lee Gun grinned. Amongst the Zodiacs, the biggest rival to Pisces were the magicians. Moreover, Pisces knew Heiji and Lee Gun were on terrible terms.

Heiji used to be the leader of the other magic temple that opposed Lee Gun alongside Pisces. She was capable, and she probably knew the weakness of the Pisces temple better than anyone.

This was why Lee Gun had decided to test out his newly acquired powers on her. “Still. I never imagined she would turn out like this.”

“What? Didn’t you make her like this?!”

“No way!”

He had used Oblivion to erase her bad memories of him, then Distortion to make it so that they were on good terms.

Lee Gun laughed in derision. “It was my first attempt, so I might have gone overboard. However, it doesn’t matter. Both Oblivion and Distortion are very useful.”

The two men shook.

‘At this rate, won’t he be the strongest?’

‘He can use it to raise faith. That’s the end game!’

As if he could read their thoughts, Lee Gun snorted. “I cannot do anything when it comes to faith. Faith falls under the matters of the heart. Moreover, that state doesn’t last indefinitely.”

“!”

Wouldn’t it be a problem if it was unlimited?

“How long does it last?”

“Thousand years?”

“That’s practically endless!!!”

“Well, it’ll be released if something happens to me, so it isn’t endless.”

“…!”

“Anyway...”

Lee Gun checked the package Heiji had brought. Most of them were fan letters, but an unexpected item was in there too.

“What the hell is this? An invitation?”

It was a golden letter.

Hugo and Stevens were surprised when they saw the symbol engraved on the letter.

“No way! They sent you an invitation?”

“What? Who are they?”

Stevens answered, “World Capital Alliance.”

“!”

“You worked without taking any support funds, so you probably don't know about them. However, they are the ones who became the line of capital for the Zodiac Saints in the past.”

“In other words, they are sponsors?”

“Yes. They still move the market of awakened beings. They are also the ones who called us Zodiac Saints in the beginning.”

In other words, they were an organization that provided funds for their own benefit.

“They are entangled with a lot of Zodiac Saints. They provided support in various ways to control the Zodiac Saints from behind the curtains. Of course, their influence diminished as the twelve Zodiac temples grew larger….”

Lee Gun’s eyes flashed when he saw the odd look in their eyes. “Since I absorbed and eliminated the temples, are they making a move?”

“It seems as if you’re trying to merge all the temples into one. I believe they are trying to get on your good side.”

Hugo didn’t seem to have too bad of an opinion of them. “While Libra and Cancer tried to slander Gun’s honor, they rated Lee Gun highly for his achievements. I thought they were ok.”

Stevens laughed in derision. “Do you really think so?”

“!”

“Why do you think the Sagittarius temple never received any support money?”

“!?”

“They probably embezzled it from the middle. Moreover, how do you think the criminal Zodiac Saint Jean-Louis had such a long reach?”

“……!”

“I don’t like people interfering in my affairs, so I severed myself from them. They were probably the ones who provided the manpower and money to cover up the incident with your wife. Also, why do you think all the hospitals turned you down when you tried to hospitalize your wife? In the end, a new hospital had to be built within the Scorpio Saint’s holy ground.”

“!”

“Why do you think all the hospitals around the world declined to take her in?”

“Ahhhk!”

The enraged Hugo was about to run out, but someone stopped him.

“That’s not important right now, honey.”

“!”

The one to calm him down was Chun Jiwoo. She seemed to have found some information as a Secretary. She had come here to fetch her husband, and in turn, sought Lee Gun.

It looked like she had heard their conversation. Chun Jiwoo laughed. “Anyway, the organization that sent the invitation— Oohp!”

Did the smell of the chicken make her nauseous, or was she not feeling well? It looked like Chun Jiwoo was about to throw up.

Surprised, Hugo quickly grabbed his wife. “Are you ok? Are you feeling unwell? Hey! Go do something!”

Stevens was surprised, and he went to get a cup of water. Hugo looked at his wife with worry.

On the other hand, Lee Gun’s eyes turned round when he looked at Chun Jiwoo. He smirked as if he had seen something. “I’ll have to prepare a present.”

“What???”

“It’s nothing.”

Chun Jiwoo spoke after drinking the water. “I believe the organization that sent the invitation has a deep connection to the Time monarch.”

“!!”

This meant the invitation might have been sent by Time.
