Chapter 283: Let's Do This (1)

A very long time ago…

[What did you say, you shameless bastard?]

[Get out of our sight right now!]

[You’re just a lowly slave with no divine status! Is this what your masters taught you?]

The current twelve Zodiacs were nameless servants at that point, serving the Creation tribe.

However, the being who later became the current Pisces had been ambitious. Its ambition was its desire to possess the Seats of power. She longed for the thrones possessed by their masters.

‘If we have that, we’ll be able to possess Divine status.’

Their masters, the Creation tribe, were the elites of the Divine world. Possessing a high reputation for being heroes, they were gods with abilities to back that reputation.

But Pisces thought differently.

‘Abilities? No, the Seats of power are the ones imbuing our masters with powerful abilities.’

If they, the servants, received the same powers, they would be able to enjoy the same reputation.

In truth, Pisces had learned magic from the original owners, and her skills were said to be excellent. In fact, some even thought that she was better than her master.

So, she came up with the plot for usurpation. The plan was simple.

[You know how to kill the gods, right?]

At the time, Mimir was a Construct for some god. Mimir later became Gemini’s fairy, but it had always been known for its wisdom. It had used the research notes left by its owner as a foundation and mixed the power of the monarchs to create a variety of spells.

One of the fourteen spells it had created made the twelve original owners sick. The last spell was the Thirteenth Killer.

‘The thirteenth Zodiac was the strongest and most special amongst the thirteen original owners.’

Its abilities and talent were the most striking. Unlike Lee Gun, it wasn’t a fighter. However, it had been the strongest amongst the original owners.

‘It was powerful enough for the other twelve original owners to be guarded against the thirteenth.’

The only god to have stood up for the thirteenth was its older brother, Sagittarius.

‘Since the original thirteenth had a screw loose, it didn’t seem to have a good relationship with its older brother.’

Anyway, the Thirteenth Killer spell was used to kill the thirteenth original owner, who they considered the most troublesome. Of course, the one to directly kill the thirteenth was Virgo.

‘We used that skill to steal their abilities beforehand. It was why we were able to end their lives.’

Since the thirteenth had been so strong, the servants had assumed the plan would fail. However, they became sure of it when the plan was successful.

‘As expected, they weren’t great at all!’

What about Yeonwoo and Junwoo, who had succeeded the thirteenth original owner?

All the thirteenth Zodiacs helplessly died under Pisces’s feet when she used Thirteenth Killer. It served them right.

‘That skill is the strongest skill.’

This was the reason for Pisces’s confidence.

‘Lee Gun. Your awakening as the thirteenth Zodiac will be your downfall.’

On top of having that skill, Pisces was the goddess of magic. She had stolen the power of her master, who even possessed the power of Ra. There was no way a rookie like Lee Gun could use his power against Pisces’s divine status, which had cemented its accomplishments.

In the present…

“My god! Lee Gun-nim also possessed the same pain as us.”

“We never knew….”

“Poor guy…”

Even the high-rank disciples gathered in this place were falling for him.

It made Pisces angry, and she activated her magic toward Lee Gun. Of course, Lee Gun being the son of the thirteenth original owner was shocking, but it didn’t matter at that moment.

“You are the same as the previous generations, who were called the Gods of Calamity!”

Pisces extended her hand, instantly summoning something inside it. The object looked like a small urn.

[First Canopic Urn]

It looked like an urn with an animal head as a cover. It was like an urn that one placed innards inside at an Egyptian funeral ritual.

This urn indeed had organs inside it, but no one knew whose innards they were, not even Pisces’s Constructs.

In the end, the urn flashed as blue light surged forward. The marble floors of the palace undulated as enormous fishes surged upward.

“Ahhk!”

“Pisces made the first move!”

“Does that mean Pisces framed Lee Gun?”

Pisces shouted in contempt when she heard the reporters’ shouts. “Do not be fooled!”

“!”

“His crying is all an act! Do not be fooled by such a cheap trick!”

Finally, the water shaped like fish flew toward Lee Gun.

“Gun!”

It wasn’t a normal spell. This was one of the fourteen special spells, called Against God’s Will (Disobey Will of Heaven), which was created by Pisces.

[First Canopic Urn]

<Destroy All Equipment>

‘I have to get rid of all his skills and holy items first.’

Lee Gun wasn’t someone capable of crying through acting in the first place. While he could dupe civilians, he couldn’t dupe awakened beings. This led to only one answer.

‘He’s most definitely using Gemini’s power!’

Pisces had to strip him of the abominable magic.

When the First Canopic Urn flashed, Lee Gun flinched. Then…

Kwah-jeek!!

Bbah-gahk!

Kwah-jee-jeek!

Screams started coming from various locations.

“Ahhk! My protection skills!”

“My holy item!”

All the protection skills and holy items within the palace were destroyed.

“My scapular and royal holy item!” Stevens screamed.

Their items weren’t the only things destroyed.

Kwah-jeek!

“…!”

It seemed the magic had been potent. Lee Gun’s Emotion Dial (S) was destroyed within his pocket.

As soon as the holy item’s power was severed, Lee Gun’s tears dried up.

‘Oh no.’

That wasn’t all. Rage instantly started to boil up within Lee Gun.

When Lee Gun glared at her, Pisces laughed. “Yes. I know it was fake tears. You were acting.”

Those words caused a commotion amongst the crowd, and people tried to check Lee Gun to see if it was true.

In the end, the pissed-off Lee Gun was about to reflexively raise his hand to call Heaven’s Punishment.

Pisces thought the enraged Lee Gun would charge her.

[Thirteenth Canopic Urn]

She summoned a different urn, and Lee Gun flinched when it started emitting light.

“!!”

It was to be expected.

[Thirteenth Canopic Urn]

<Thirteenth Killer>

“…!”

Lee Gun didn’t know what the skill was, but he instinctively realized he shouldn’t approach Pisces.

‘I’ll die if I get close.’

Suddenly, the future Time showed him brushed through his mind. He had felt the same energy at that time.

When the Sadness magic was released, Lee Gun had unconsciously put on a villainous expression on his face.

“H-Huhkk! L-Lee Gun-nim! Were you really acting?”

“W…Was the Pisces right…!”

“?!”

Lee Gun flinched. As a temporary solution, he hugged Hugo. It looked like he was weeping as he buried his head against his friend, lamenting. “Hey, Taeksoo. It seems no one believes me, no matter what I say…!”

The weeping(?) caused murderous intent to appear in the eyes of the 600%-faith disciple.

“Really!!! Bastards!!!”

For the first time in his life, Hugo had witnessed Lee Gun be sad, which had shocked him. Moreover, the rage of the 600%-faith disciple was unexpectedly very effective.

[Because his Zodiac has been insulted, Disciple Hugo Otis feels an unbridled rage]

[The Rage buff has been placed on the disciple.]

[The Rage buff increases according to the value of the faith (600%).]

[Attack has increased as much as the faith (600%).]

[Berserk skill has been created within the Serpent Bearer temple.]

With the incredible buff boosting him, Hugo summoned the Bow made out of Fish (EX).

This surprised Stevens. “Why is his bow intact!?”

It seemed being EX-rank had allowed the weapon to survive the equipment-destruction magic.

Despite this development, Pisces laughed.

‘He won’t be able to use his skill.’

A normal attack with no skills backing it couldn’t deal critical damage to her.

“Who told you to torment Gun?”

Kwahng! Kwahng!

“?!”

Hugo’s arrows razed the palace to the ground. Moreover, the attacks were powerful enough to threaten the Zodiac.

“Ahhhk! W-Wait a moment! Ahk!”

Was it because of the rage buff increasing his attack power? Despite the attack being a normal one, it had the destructive power of a skill!

Pisces was taken aback by the incredible destructive power, and Lee Gun looked very satisfied.

‘What the hell? It’s more useful than I thought.’

Because of Pisces’s magic, even Lee Gun had been unable to activate his skill.

Lee Gun thought this might be a golden opportunity for him. He glared at the urn in Pisces’s hands.

‘I’ll have to deal with that first.’

That had been why Lee Gun buried his face again as he pretended to weep. “It’s all because of that urn…!”

Since he wasn’t using his emotion magic, his acting sucked, yet it was very effective on a certain disciple.

“Bastards! Gun is sad because of that urn!!!”

There was a reason Zodiacs wanted to bring in disciples with high faith.

Containing an enormous power, Hugo’s arrow headed toward Pisces.

Kwahng! Kwahng!

The flustered Pisces called out her Constructs.

[Ahhk!!]

[Master!]

The arrow’s attack power had gone up by 600%, so the Constructs of the Pisces temple were put into critical condition.

Stevens looked dumbfounded. “That fanatic really is…”

The Leo Saint looked sick and tired of what he saw, so he was about to turn around.

‘I was dragged along, but I can’t even use my skills right now. If I stay here longer, I might be killed.’

Kwah-jeek!

“!!”

At that moment, Lee Gun grabbed Stevens’s arm. He couldn’t approach Pisces, and he knew it would be too much for Taeksoo to handle the matter by himself.

‘I have to get rid of that strange urn.’

So, he said to Stevens, “Hurry up and join in. Attack the Zodiac.”

“What?! Can’t you see that I’m without any weapons? It will be an act of suicide!” Stevens didn’t want to be put on the same level as the fanatic. He was about to leave. “I said I’ll help, but I never said I’ll attack a Zodiac…”

“I’ll make you a weapon. It’ll be EX-rank as Taeksoo’s.”

The light in Stevens’ eyes instantly changed. “You dog shit Pisces! Who told you to make our Zodiac cry?”

Stevens charged forward as if he had lost his mind, and his involvement seemed to have an effect.

Kwah-jeek!!!

“?!”

The urn in Pisces’s hands developed a small crack when Hugo’s arrow hit it. The wound was tiny, yet Pisces glared at Hugo. “You dare!”

Lee Gun just laughed. “It seems that urn is your secret weapon.”

“!”

“I’ll destroy it in no time.”

Pisces tried to activate Thirteenth Urn in contempt when…

“How dare you!”

Kwah-jeek!

Hugo’s arrow destroyed the urn. That wasn’t all.

A hand pierced through to its heart.
