Chapter 290: Give it to me, punk (4)

It was an incredible amount of power. The power surrounded the monster as if it was creating a vortex.

And when this dark power touched the castle walls, they ceased to exist.

Koo-goohng!!

To be precise, they had returned to a time before the holy ground was made.

Hailey furrowed her fine brow.

‘Someone capable of using such power isn’t someone insignificant.’

If one compared it to the humans, this being was at least a general rank! This meant someone close to Time had come to do its master’s bidding.

Suddenly, the being that looked like a human changed into a monster. A horn sprouted from its head, and its eyes changed into those of a monster.

[Give me the Serpent Bearer’s molt! That is my master’s item!]

In the end, they screamed as the wind pressure sent them flying.

“Koo-oohk!”

“Black zone rank…!?”

Moreover, it seemed the Virgo Constructs had felt something from the power. They urgently yelled.

[Kevin! It’s the energy we detected within the vault!]

Kevin realized who had pilfered his vault. “You swapped out the item in the vault. You went for that item alongside the molt!”

He was sure of it.

‘Time is trying to obtain Lee Gun’s body.’

However, something didn’t make sense.

“Why are they trying to obtain Lee Gun’s corpse?”

Chun Sungjae became angry as he grabbed Lee Gun’s molt. “Of course, they are trying to obtain it because it belongs to Uncle! Also, why would you store it in a way where it can get easily stolen? Ahhk! There are wrinkles around the face?!”

Kevin pretended not to hear him. He could understand why the Chun siblings and the Ten Stars wanted Lee Gun’s body. They were fanboys and fangirls who would like anything belonging to Lee Gun.

‘The skin doesn’t look creepy. At a glance, it looks like a wax figure with its eyes closed…’

It really was a 1:1 large life-action figure. Of course, it was like a large statue broken into large fragments.

‘The skill of the Capricorn temple will be able to fix the broken part like it’s nothing. ’

Anyway, it was a worthy collectible for Lee Gun fans.

“Why would a monster want that?”

At Kevin’s words, the apprentice Virgo goddesses yelled out loud.

[Maybe, they are trying to create a familiar? If it is Baby snake-nim, that’s worth doing!]

“No. It’ll just be an inferior version of Lee Gun! Even if it was well created, it’ll only be able to be used as a moving mascot!”

[!]

They soon found out why Time’s camp wanted Lee Gun’s body.

Flash!

[That’s an ingredient Master will use! Hand over the molt!!]

“!!!”

When the monster gestured with its hand, light emanated from the molt Sungjae was holding. It was a skill of Time!

[Rewind Time (Radius 1 m)]

The time was being rewound as the molt tried to return to the monster’s hands. It was returning to a time when the monster possessed the molt.

[I’ll be taking the molt once again!]

“No, you won’t!” Hailey used the same skill. Her skill clashed against the power trying to turn back time.

Kwahng!

Moreover, she was a formidable foe.

The monster gnashed its teeth as it glared at Hailey.

[You dare betray Master!]

“Shut up!”

An enormous power spike erupted, and everyone within the space groaned. The shock created by the two powers clashing dislodged Lee Gun’s molt from Chun Sungjae’s tight embrace.

“Ah!”

The monster laughed when it saw this. It took advantage of this opportunity and tried to grab the molt that was flying toward it.

“I won’t let you do as you please!” Chun Yooha flew in and hugged Lee Gun’s molt tightly, stealing it.

[Koo-oohk!]

In the end, the monster’s hands grasped only a few strands of hair from Lee Gun’s molt!

Chun Yooha then glared at it. “Do you really think you’ll be able to take this in front of us?”

The monster smirked in contempt. Until now, it had been unable to use a great amount of power because it had been afraid of damaging the molt.

[Yes. It’s an item that I have to present to my master, but Master wouldn’t mind if I use a tiny part of it.]

“…?”

The monster immediately imbued the power of Time into Lee Gun’s hair. At the same time, something surprising happened.

“!?”

After receiving the power of Time, the couple strands of hair started to melt. They became a liquid that had the consistency of slime. The melted substance turned into something they knew.

Ssssrk!

The melted substance became larger and more powerful.

“T…That’s…!”

Everyone became pale when they saw what had appeared.

[Kee-ehhhhhhk!!]

“I-It is a monster!”

Yes, the hair that was considered part of Lee Gun’s body had changed into a monster.

It resembled an enormous clay golem. The golem roared toward the sky, and its roar sounded similar to the roar of Oblivion.

Everyone shook at this.

“W-What the hell is that? Is it transformation magic?”

Taylor and Goat had the same thought.

However, Chun Sungjae was quick on the uptake, and he thought differently. He thought about the corpses that had been buried within the Nameless Land.

‘The unknown body parts left there were said to belong to the original owners.’

Pisces, who had possessed the Divine status of Isis, had buried the corpses of the original owner that they had killed. To tie up loose ends, they had passed on that land to the monarchs. That wasn’t all.

‘I’m not sure of it, but it seems Time made Oblivion using the corpses of the original owners.’

It was unclear as to how powerful the original owners were, but at the very least, the monsters born from them were monarch rank.

The implication was clear at that point.

“They said ingredients! Are you trying to make a monster with Uncle’s molt?!”

“!!!”

He was correct. The monster of Time laughed.

[Yes. As you can see from Oblivion, our master likes to use the bodies of Zodiacs as ingredients! Of course, those like Abyss merely treat the bodies as food!]

“…!!”

Hailey bit her tongue.

‘Lee Gun’s molt should be equivalent to the body of a Zodiac.’

Moreover, Time was a magician who had amassed knowledge as he wandered around the past and future. He was skilled enough to lend power to the Pisces, who planned on killing and usurping the original owners.

It was unknown as to how the act was done, but Time could easily create monsters from gods’ corpses! Moreover, Lee Gun’s base abilities were extraordinary.

‘A monster greater than Oblivion might come out…!’

[Kee-ehhhhk!!!]

The clay golem made from the strands of hair let out a violent roar. The sound almost made everyone’s heart stop. It wasn’t just a roar. That wasn’t all.

Koo-oong!!!

An unknown power had cut off their consciousness, and they had fallen to the ground.

“Kuh-huhk!”

They had no idea what had happened. When they became conscious, they found themselves on the ground, bloodied and battered.

“Koo-oohk…!”

If the Virgo temple were not an affiliate under the Serpent Bearer, they would have died instantaneously.

[Injuries to the disciples have been detected.]

[The power of the holy ground has been automatically activated.]

[Super Regeneration!]

They were barely able to stay conscious, and they felt a chill.

‘Black zone….’

‘No, it’s something stronger than that!’

Normal monsters had nothing on this one.

In contrast to them, the monster from Time’s camp laughed.

[My god! As expected, it’s incredible. It is made from the most useless part, yet it is this powerful!]

Moreover, this golem-like monster wasn’t made by Time. The monster from Time’s camp had made it haphazardly, yet the being was this powerful!

[I now know why Master is interested in the thirteenth!]

Kevin ground his teeth as he bled. He glared at the monster. “What is Time’s goal?”

[!]

Kevin had barely fought against Time’s camp, so he didn’t know much about them. However, when he faced the monster from Time’s camp, he became sure of something.

“The power of Time is very similar to Jean-Louis’s power. Moreover, Jean-Louis was the one to trap Lee Gun within the tower.”

“!”

Despite having his heart skewered and losing to Jean-Louis, Kevin had faced off against Jean-Louis using his true power. So, he said, “Time sent Jean-Louis to spy on humanity, right? Also, Time ordered him to trap Lee Gun within the Devil’s Tower.”

The monster from Time’s camp burst out laughing.

[Stupid humans! You still haven’t realized it!]

“!”

[The one you know as Jean-Louis is our great master! It’s Time’s past self!]

“…!!!”

Everyone was shocked.

The monster didn’t care as it let out a lilting laugh.

[Our master is a time traveler. If it’s for his plan, he can use beings from the past. Of course, Jean-Louis was completely unaware of this.]

“…!”

[Master needs the thirteenth’s power of Cycle. He has returned to the past numerous times, yet he was unable to achieve his wishes.]

Time had tried hundreds and thousands of times, but had failed to achieve his goal. The number had reached 18,732.

[This timeline is different. Unlike you guys, Lee Gun is a unique existence that has never appeared in the other timelines.]

“!”

[He’s the only being Master has never met or seen before. His existence is unknown. This is why our master is interested in him.]

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

In the numerous repeats of the timeline, thirteen awakened beings had never existed. The Zodiac Saints had always numbered twelve.

Of course, the thirteenth Zodiac did exist, but Yeonwoo continued to die in the timelines. Lee Gun didn’t exist in them.

So, Time would naturally be interested in Lee Gun’s existence since he had appeared right now. An unexpected change had occurred. The only existence that Time didn’t know about had appeared!

Of course, Time had wondered if he had been unable to achieve his goal because the existence of Lee Gun had been missing.

The monster laughed since it knew its owner’s intent.

‘He’s the key that’ll allow Master to achieve his goal.’

[Of course, Jean-Louis was unable to consume the Zodiacs and the Zodiac Saints, unlike in the previous timelines. However, it doesn’t matter. Master will consume everyone to become the great monarch!]

In the end, there was no way to kill Time, since he was a time traveler.

[That’s why you guys should become Master’s food!]

As that voice rang out, the golem made from Lee Gun’s hair roared.

Everyone shook in fear. However…

Kwahng!!!

Suddenly, a beam of black light came flying in, and the Lee Gun golem screamed.

Boom!!!

The unidentified black beam of light suddenly blew away the golem’s head.

“W-What the hell!!”

It was an incredible power. Moreover, it wasn’t a normal power. Unlike a normal strike that could damage the opponent, this bizarre power destroyed the existence itself!

The faces of the Chun siblings brightened, and Kevin’s eyes turned round.

“W-Wait a moment! Isn’t this Lee Gun’s power of Death?”

[That’s right! It came flying from the detached palace!]

“If it’s from the detached palace— Ahhhk!! What happened to the palace that was over there?” Kevin didn’t even have time to be surprised by the sudden loss of his main palace.

[Shit. That power is…!]

The monster from Time’s camp gnashed its teeth and looked toward the detached palace.

At the same time, it glared at the molt in Yooha’s possession.

‘I’ll have to take that for Master!’

This monster was within the holy ground of the humans, so its power was restricted. It was at a disadvantage in many ways.

As if they had read its thoughts, Hailey and the other Zodiac Saints stepped forward to attack it.

“No way!”

Kwahng!!!

As power clashed against power, the monster from Time’s camp clicked its tongue.

[It seems you will come to your senses only if you’re beaten once again.]

It wanted to pluck out Lee Gun’s hair once again to create another golem.

However, Kevin and the Ten Stars protected the molt.

“Do you think we’ll let you make it again?”

The monster from Time’s camp didn’t pay any attention to them. It laughed as it released its power.

“Koohk!”

As the surface crumpled, Lee Gun’s molt flew into the air.

“Ah!!”

The monster from Time’s camp snatched Lee Gun’s molt and took a handful of his hair.

[Several strands were able to create something so powerful. If I use this much, I’ll be able to create a being that’ll obliterate this continent!]

Its master would cut it some slack for doing this. Finally, the monster was about to rip out the hair it had grasped when…

Bbah-gahk!!!!

“I’ll kill you, bitch!”

An angry kick sent the monster flying.
