The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero

Chapter 67: What the hell are you doing (1)

“Lee Gun!!!”

It was a familiar voice, the Leo Saint’s voice.

Lee Gun turned his head and saw Stevens, who was in a rough state. The Leo Saint’s awesome-looking armor lay in tatters; only pieces of it were left. His ripped clothes were stained with blood. One could tell with just a glance that he had gone through a lot.

Of course, the Leo Saint was a built man with a lot of muscles. He outwardly looked fine, but Lee Gun could see through that facade.

[You have activated ‘Gaze of a God’!]

Lee Gun could easily see that even without the skill too. The Leo Saint had several broken bones and his internal organs were damaged as well. Stevens’s breathing and movement told it all to Lee Gun, who had become observant in his time within the tower.

Still, Leo Saint was the Leo Saint. He had probably suffered this great damage when Lee Gun had kicked him off Drachma.

‘He has always been able to take a punch.’

In some ways, it was amazing. Lee Gun really had been trying to kill Stevens; he had dropped him from 16,000 feet in the air.

‘A Saint isn’t someone to be ignored.’

Lee Gun didn’t know who was in charge of recruiting the Leo temple’s disciples, but Stevens had gathered a lot of competent ones. Twenty years ago, the Leo Saint would have died from that fall.

As Lee Gun thought about this, the Leo Saint strode toward him. “This is great! Lee Gun, I wanted you to be alive so that I can kill you!”

“Saint-nim!”

Murderous intent was all over his angry face.

[The Golden Lion’s power is spreading around]

Along with the boiling murderous intent, Stevens emanated golden magical energy. It was intense enough to make the other gods’ disciples retreat in surprise.

The murderous intent was electric. Stevens Marker was considered the giant of the north for a reason.

The other gods’ disciples became tense. On the other hand, the Leo disciples reacted in an entirely different manner.

“Ahhk! Saint-nim! Please stop!”

Their faces were pale. Even the high-rank disciples desperately tried to hold back their Saint.

“Please! Please stay there!”

“Don’t fight with Lee Gun again!”

“?!” The Leo Saint whipped his head around.

The disciples from the other temples reacted in fright. They couldn’t ask why the Leo generals would say such words. However, the Leo generals meant what they said. Of course, they weren’t trying to disrespect Stevens. The Leo Saint was the strongest warrior of the Leo temple. Moreover, they knew why Stevens was unusually obsessed with Lee Gun.

‘Lee Gun cannot use the power of a god.’

Although this information was unknown twenty years ago, the world had picked up on it when the temple system was established. At that time, the presence of awakened beings had become commonplace.

‘Lee Gun is a mutant awakened being who wasn’t chosen by the gods.’

Unlike the twelve Zodiacs Saints, who were apostles of the gods, Lee Gun was a normal awakened being.

‘He’s a superhuman that mimics the gods’ apostles.’

Although people held this opinion, Lee had always used a lot of unique abilities. Of course, the world considered his techniques rip-offs. He was a mutant who used miscellaneous skills.

Anyway, this didn’t change the fact that Lee Gun was a unique being in the eyes of the twelve gods. They found his techniques rare and precious. After all, the grass is greener on the other side.

‘Saint-nim has been searching various methods to break through his limit.’

Stevens had researched about the hero who was different from him. However, the recent events had something clear.

‘Anything remotely related to Lee Gun has to be avoided! He shouldn’t get involved at all!’

‘He is very powerful, yet Lee Gun sent him skydiving!’

The Leo disciples believed in their Saint, but it was plausible that a similar result might occur if the Saint fought Lee Gun again.

‘Something beyond our imagination might happen again. We might have to take on another wild goose chase.’

Therefore, the Leo disciples were desperate.

“Saint-nim! Let’s return to our holy ground for now!”

“You shouldn’t fight Lee Gun.”

“You look fine, but I’m sure you’re tired!”

“That’s right! You should head back and heal your body first!”

The Leo Saint was dumbfounded. He wondered why they were acting like this, but that wasn’t important right now. “Lee Gun! Make me a weapon!”

“!” An incredulous expression appeared on Lee Gun’s face. ‘What nonsense is this idiot talking about?’

The Leo Saint didn’t pay any attention to Lee Gun as he pointed at the bone. “I won that item through the auction. I want you to make me a weapon with it.”

Lee Gun was baffled. In fact, he felt his veins pop out due to the Leo Saint’s shameless behavior.

“Do you want to become a leather sofa?” Lee Gun savagely unsheathed his blade.

The Leo Saint remained serious. “You’re our exclusive repairman. Of course, the Saints should be prioritized. Stop being impudent— Kuh-huhk!”

He couldn’t end his sentence. After taking a kick in the face again, the swaggering Leo Saint was sent flying. He fell off the cliff.

“Ahhhk! Saint-nim!”

Chun Yooha, who was panting in anger, had kicked the Leo Saint in the face again.

The generals froze.

“Chun Yooha!”

“She did it again!”

This woman had also kicked the Saint in the face during the live broadcast earlier!

“Do you realize who you just kicked?”

“He’s the Saint! Do you want to get dragged to the divine court?”

Chun Yooha realized her mistake. If she wanted to kick someone, she had to do it where there were no witnesses. ‘He was disrespecting Uncle.’ By the time she had become aware of it, her foot had already been flying through the air.

Lee Gun laughed. “Good job, Yooha! I guess I don’t have to teach you my technique of kicking a Saint in the face.”

“!” Chun Yooha turned her head at the praise. She recalled the time when her brother had received a pat from Lee Gun.

She looked at Lee Gun with great expectation, but Lee Gun looked back at her as if he didn’t understand why she was acting this way. “What’s wrong?”

Chun Yooha quickly became sullen. She wanted to ask why she didn’t get a pat on the head, but…

Boom!

The Leo Saint started climbing up the cliff. “Chun Yooha! You really… I overlooked your transgression since you’re Hugo’s daughter!”

The generals became anxious because of the Saint’s murderous intent. The situation had become dangerous.

“Yooha! It isn’t too late! Hurry up and tell him that you’re sorry!”

Chun Yooha looked dumbfounded. “Why would I?”

“What do you mean, why?”

The generals were flabbergasted.

Chun Yooha was an important piece of the Leo Saint’s fighting forces, so the temple gave her a lot of leeway. However, the Leo Saint would no longer go easy on her. It wasn’t just the Leo Saint.

‘I’m sure that person won’t take this lying down.’

The Leo temple had an SS-rank disciple. He was like the governor of the temple, the top man amongst the generals.

‘He already doesn’t like Chun Yooha because she’s a woman.’

As an SS rank User, that man was in the Saint rank. However, despite being lower in rank than him, Chun Yooha had pushed that man out of the Ten Stars. The man had been grinding his teeth in frustration. He was holding back because the Leo Saint had personally brought Chun Yooha into the temple.

If news of what happened reached him, he would use this opportunity to kill Chun Yooha. In fact, he might already be on the island right now.

‘Over thirty minutes have passed since the scene of her kicking Saint-nim was broadcast first.’

‘He might be nearby!’

The generals became desperate. It was unclear what the SS-rank disciple would do, but Chun Yooha was an important part of their fighting power. Moreover, she was the only woman in the Leo temple, the flower amongst muscular macho men. They had to protect her at all costs.

“Ask for his forgiveness, Yooha!”

“Being a Lee Gun fan made you do it!”

“At this rate, the Saint-nim will kill you and Lee Gun!”

“That’s right! A Zodiac Saint is different from a monster!”

“Even if he did kill Thousand Legs, Lee Gun can’t win against Saint—”

Suddenly…

Kwahng!

“Koo-oohk!”

After the deafening sound, the disciples screamed. A terrifying sword energy spread everywhere.

“Whatever. You guys can all attack me.”

“…!”

Holding up his blade, Lee Gun made a come hither hand gesture. “What are you doing, you curs? Attack me.”

“…!”

The Leo disciples wondered if they had heard wrong. What did he just say?

“You want us to attack you? Are you joking?”

“It isn’t a joke.” Lee Gun let out a cold laugh. He was the most pissed-off person right now.

‘What did these assholes say? They want my niece to beg?’

The only reason the Leo Saint had been able to throw a tantrum about the weapon was his disciples. What should Lee Gun do then?

‘I’ll just get rid of all his disciples.’

If the beings uplifting him disappeared, the Leo Saint would act accordingly. After all, a stick is the best medicine when dealing with a rabid dog.

Kwahng!

Suddenly, a fog appeared at the scene. The Leo disciples screamed.

“Koohk!”

“What the hell is— Huhk!”

The fog was similar to gas. It instantly covered all the disciples. The problem started from that point on.

“Wait a moment! Kuh-huhk!”

“Ahhhk!”

Screams came from the fog nonstop.

Still clinging to the cliff, Stevens yelled, “What’s going on?”

Lee Gun furrowed his brows. The tame magical energy of the Leo was surging at that moment. It was emanating from the fog. The magical energy of several thousand people was surging, all at once.

[Caution! The beasts are going berserk!]

[A powerful virus is forcing their changes!]

As Lee Gun heard the warning, the disciples immediately rushed out of the fog.

“!”

However, something was off about them.

“Ethan!”

“No! Stop! Ahk!”

They suddenly started attacking their allies. The light in their eyes had changed. They acted as if they had turned into real beasts, indiscriminately destroying everything in their surroundings.

Kwahng!

However, that wasn’t all.

“Koo-roohk!”

The drooling disciples then ate Thousand Legs’s corpse. As if that wasn’t enough, they started biting each other.

[The beasts are going wild.]

[The bodies of the modified disciples are starting to change.]

This sight took Lee Gun aback. He brought down his blade by a fraction. “Have they really lost their minds?”

The Leo disciples, who had been indiscriminate in their attacks, started to key in on Lee Gun.

“Koo-roo-roohk!”

Lee Gun was about to punt them with an unconcerned expression. However, a problem occurred.

[Joint Skill]

[Fatal Self-Destruct]

Boom!

The disciples grabbed each other’s hands and were swept up by an explosion.

“…!” Chun Yooha furrowed her brows. Her reaction was understandable. The skill looked familiar. ‘The Goat Saint!’

A similar explosion occurred whenever the Goat Saint detonated his items. The situation was clear.

[Prisoner Torch is feeling pain.]

Lee Gun heard the sound of Torch in pain. He turned to look. The Goat Saint had exited from the slime, and a smile hung on his lips.

* * *

The Goat Saint Sergeyevich was laughing. ‘Lee Gun. You were supposed to be mine.’

The Capricorn had delivered the message to Sergeyevich twenty years ago. The god had said Lee Gun was dead. This left the Goat Saint bitterly disappointed. He had coveted Lee Gun’s abilities, battle techniques, and manufacturing skills.

It had been very disappointing that Lee Gun had died before he could steal those abilities. In truth, Sergeyevich wanted to recover Lee Gun’s corpse twenty years ago. He planned on turning the corpse into a puppet. ‘I never expected the body to be gone since he fell into a trap.’

However, this was the present. Lee Gun was in front of his eyes. Moreover, the man had changed. He was very sturdy compared to the him from twenty years ago.

Of course, Sergeyevich had been flustered when he had been trapped within the slime. However, it didn’t matter in the end.

[Flame Armor! S rank!]

– Protects the body from fire.

– Fire energy is gathered to attack the enemy

Sergeyevich wasn’t called the Maker Saint without reason. He had made a private set of battle gear with Lee Gun’s tools, which he had stolen. The Goat Saint could summon an already-made item with the crook of his finger. He had used the item to make the monster faint within the slime’s stomach. As expected, an item made using Lee Gun’s hammer was on a different level.

‘Of course, I couldn’t fully bring out its ability with my power.’ However, that was enough. Taking care of the slime hadn’t been difficult either.

[Ammonia Bomb]

On the sides, the slime was throwing up and groaning in pain.

At this point, Sergeyevich was just going with the flow. He took out an item that he had squirreled away. “I have no choice. I planned on using this at a later date, but….”

The Goat Saint knew a war would erupt amongst the Zodiac Saints in the future. He had prepared this weapon for that eventuality. It was a Leo exclusive lethal weapon.

[Rabies Virus Gas]

The skill made the Leo disciples go crazy through a rabies-type virus.

‘Is it better to call it feline rabies?’

The virus didn’t work against the disciples of other gods. It only worked against the Leo disciples. Sergeyevich had included this gas in missiles several times as an experiment and had already confirmed its effectiveness. Moreover, there was a clear difference between this and real rabies.

Hweek!

The Goat Saint blew on a small flute. At this signal, the Leo disciples within the gas rushed toward Lee Gun.

“Ggooh-ahhhhhh!”

Chun Yooha had kicked the Leo Saint off the cliff, so the Saint hadn’t breathed in the gas. However, it didn’t matter.

‘Several thousand Leo Saints are mine to use.’ Moreover, Sergeyevich had upgraded their abilities through the virus. “Even Lee Gun shouldn’t be able to….”

The Goat Saint was mumbling to himself when…

“Is this everything you’ve prepared?” Lee Gun laughed.
