The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero

Chapter 69: What the hell are you doing (3)

As if to make things worse, the spear had pierced through the heart.

“Kuh-huhk…!”

Lee Gun let out a cold laugh as if the spear had found its home. “Idiot! If you’re going to stab someone, you have to do it properly. Why the hell would you stab his stomach?”

That wasn’t all.

Bbah-gahk!

“Kuhak!”

Lee Gun kicked in the reverse direction, sending the Leo Saint flying again.

Boom!

“You dare touch my prey? You want to die?”

“Koo-oohk…!” After taking that kick to the face, the Leo Saint felt like dying. Of all the places to get hit, he had been kicked in the same location where Chun Yooha had kicked him earlier. ‘He did it on purpose!’

“If he has to die, I’m going to be the one to kill him!” Lee Gun put more strength into the spear, which was skewering the Goat Saint. His eyes held no respect for the elder.

Unable to extract the spear from his chest, the Goat Saint just glared at Lee Gun. A normal person would have immediately died from the blow.

“Lee Gun!” In the end, the Goat Saint took in a painful breath.

Lee Gun looked down with contempt in his eyes. “You are a Saint, Sebastian. It’d be a shame if you died so quickly.”

“Koohk…!”

“I’ll ask again.” Lee Gun extracted the spear once again.

Poo-hahk!

“Kuhk!”

He held it as if he were holding a harpoon. “Which bastard told you that I’ll die in the tower?”

“Alright! I’ll tell you! Let’s have a conversation.”

Poohk!

The spear pierced through Sergeyevich once again.

[The Capricorn is letting out a horrible scream. ]

[You have acquired data]

The Goat Saint realized that if he tried to negotiate once again, he was dead. ‘I can’t use Hugo as a false flag.’

So, he said, “Scorpio.”

“!”

“She said you’ll die in the tower. The Scorpio Saint gave me the heads-up!”

“Oh!” Lee Gun was intrigued. ‘Scorpio Saint.’

He had never expected that name to be brought up here. Alongside the Gemini Saint Heiji, the Scorpio Saint was considered a knockout. She didn’t use her skill, yet she never aged. Her age being the same was one of the mysteries of the world.

Of course, the Scorpio Saint somehow ran away every time she saw Lee Gun. However, she wasn’t like Sophie; she didn’t run away because she hated Lee Gun’s face. Neither was she like Raeriqueen; she didn’t run away because she was scared of him.

Unlike his nemesis Heiji, Lee Gun had rarely met the Scorpio Saint. ‘The list of suspects is starting to get smaller.’ That wasn’t a bad thing.

Lee Gun then said to the Goat Saint, “Since you’re an old man, I won’t drag this out.”

“Kuh-huhk!”

“Hurry up and give me the hammer you stole. It’s mine.”

The Goat Saint moaned and tried to resist. However, Lee Gun stomped on his hand. “Take it out.”

As if he had no choice, the Goat Saint stabbed his finger into the ground. Then, a magic circle appeared on the ground. This was one of the special abilities of the Goat Saint; he could summon items using pocket dimensions. Lee Gun coveted this ability too.

Lee Gun’s eyes twinkled as something appeared from the magic circle.

[Hammer That Grants Achievements (S)]

A familiar weapon had appeared. It was the refining tool he needed if he wanted to make weapons of S rank.

Lee Gun looked satisfied with the item. ‘I guess they don’t call him Maker Saint without reason.’ Even after twenty years, the item was in excellent condition.

Lee Gun looked at the Goat Saint with a satisfied expression. “Since you took care of my baby, I’ll let you die painlessly.”

As soon as Lee Gun took the hammer, something surprising happened.

[The weapon has found its master.]

[The sleeping soul is awakening.]

[It is evolving to suit its owner’s appearance.]

A light appeared from the hammer as it slowly changed in shape and color.

[Hammer That Grants Achievements (SS)]

The Goat Saint ground his teeth when he saw the item back in its owner’s possession. Feeling deep resentment, he shouted, “Stevens!”

“!”

“Use your Semi-Divine state! You’ll be able to hold even Lee Gun!”

‘Semi-Divine?’ Lee Gun tilted his head in puzzlement. He had never heard of this ability before.

Stevens raised his voice. “Why the hell would I? Also, why should I listen to you in the first place?”

“What do you mean, why? At this rate, both you and I will die at the hands of Lee Gun!”

“Hmmph! You dare speak that way when you used my subordinates!” The Leo Saint replied.

“Can’t you read that situation? My way of making Lee Gun a slave was a faster way to resolve this! That’s why I did it!” Sergeyevich tried to convince him.

“Shut up, old man!” The Leo Saint shut him off.

The Goat Saint became desperate when the Leo Saint emanated savage magical energy. “This isn’t the time to be prideful! If you use your Semi-Divine state, you can kill Lee Gun!”

As if he wanted the Goat Saint to stop speaking nonsense, veins popped out on Stevens’s neck. He yelled, “Shut up! Lee Gun has to make me a weapon! I won’t kill him before he does that!”

“…!” The Goat Saint was baffled. ‘What a muscled-brained idiot!’

“Why would Lee Gun make you a weapon?” the Goat Saint asked. ‘He will be lucky if Lee Gun doesn’t place all kinds of curses on the weapon!’

Despite thinking that, Sergeyevich knew this wasn’t the time to argue with an idiot. “Alright! Let’s make a deal! I’ll give you enough compensation for your help. You want Lee Gun’s weapon, right? Help me capture Lee Gun. Then, I’ll force Lee Gun to make a weapon!”

“I don’t want your deal!”

“What?” Stevens was obsessed with weapons made by Lee Gun. So what had changed?

Soon, the Leo Saint earnestly yelled, “If you control Lee Gun, do you think you can make a weapon of similar quality? You can’t compete with Lee Gun at all! Moron!”

“…!!” The ruthless assault of words shocked the Goat Saint.

Lee Gun clicked his tongue. The content of their conversation was absurd, but one word stuck out.

‘Slave?’ Lee Gun’s face turned grim. “Bitch, I was going to let you die a painless death considering your age.” Lee Gun extracted the spear and held it up once again.

The Goat Saint didn’t care what Lee Gun did as he unleashed his power as well. Even if Sergeyevich couldn’t enter Semi-Divine status, he could make his god descend into his body.

His body was human, so it had limits. However, the skill would let him become more than human.

The Goat Saint planned to execute his Incarnate skill when…

Kwahnk!

Lee Gun roughly grabbed his face.

Boom!

Lee Gun’s magical energy suppressed the Goat Saint’s magical energy.

[The power that is trying to make the god descend can be resisted by brute force.]

[You can do it using the Serpent Bearer’s ability.]

The Goat Saint felt fear. ‘How…!’

His god was unable to descend into his body. In fact, Lee Gun’s power wasn’t pressing down on just him; his god had been affected too. The power was overwhelming.

Cold sweat ran down the Goat Saint’s face. ‘Could it be?’ He shouted at Lee Gun, “Did you become the new god’s—”

Boom!

[A familiar (Eeny) was summoned.]

[A familiar (Meeny) was summoned.]

[A familiar (Miny) was summoned.]

“…!”

The battle-type Constructs appeared behind Lee Gun.

Lee Gun coldly ordered, “Drag him away! You can get rid of any useless parts before I get to him.”

[We’ll obey your command!]

The Constructs took hold of the Goat Saint.

“Huh-uhk!”

After surrounding the Goat Saint, the Constructs disappeared with him.

Lee Gun smirked at this sight. ‘I’ll extract what I need. I will be very thorough.’

When silence descended into the surroundings, he spoke. “Hey, cat.”

“!”

Stevens raised his guard.

Placing his hammer on his shoulder, Lee Gun laughed. “You said you wanted a weapon. Since you helped in catching the Goat Saint, I’ll make you one.”

“…!” Stevens couldn’t believe what he had just heard as he looked at Lee Gun. He wanted to know if Lee Gun was speaking the truth.

Lee Gun continued, “Of course, I will. So, I want you to close your eyes for a moment. You can turn around if you want.”

Stevens found the request odd, but Lee Gun just laughed. “I have to make a bit of an odd pose when I use my manufacturing skill.”

The Leo Saint accepted the explanation and closed his eyes. However, the next moment…

Crack!

The sound of his skull cracking rang out

* * *

[Do you see this! It’s Lee Gun!]

[Lee Gun is killing Thousand Legs!]

[He charged toward a monster that the generals couldn’t even approach! He did all that without any armor! He’s in the thick of it!]

[He broke through! This is an unbelievable sight!]

[Yes! The legendary video from twenty years ago is being replayed on Luzon island!]

[The legend has returned!]

[The hero has returned!]

Lee Gun was watching TV. His face was scrunched up in displeasure as he gripped the remote control. His reaction was understandable. The episode of a drama he had been waiting on was supposed to be aired today.

The drama was a minor one with a viewership of 0.1%. However, Lee Gun liked that type of show. Unfortunately for him, the show was put on break because of his special feature on TV!

“Fuck! Why are they going overboard! It isn’t that big of a deal!” Lee Gun shook in anger. As the next best plan, he turned to a different channel.

[It’s Lee Gun! Lee Gun killed Thousand Legs!]

The remote control flew into the air.

“Really!”

Hugo and the Archer disciples just shook their heads at this sight. ‘He has no idea that he has done something incredible.’

Hugo had been a bit late in seeing the video, but it had still amazed him. In truth, he wanted to be at the site of the battle.

‘Shit! Those government officials keep calling me for trivial stuff!’ If not for them, Hugo could’ve seen this live!

Anyway, if Lee Gun hadn’t killed Thousand Legs, a large region surrounding the Pacific Ocean would’ve become the territory of the unknown civilization. Moreover, the generals that had almost died in this venture didn’t come out unscathed. And that wasn’t all.

[The Leo temple’s fighting power was cut in half.]

[Will they be ok?]

[We’ll have to monitor their statuses. They are a strong bunch, so…]

“Yes. They’ll never wake up. But, at least, they won’t die.”

Cold sweat appeared on Hugo’s back when he heard Lee Gun’s words. ‘What did he do in the meantime?’

Among all the news, one of the pieces was the most important. This piece of information had set the world ablaze.

[The Goat Saint said to Lee Gun that there is a new god.

[Is this the birth of the 13th god?]

[The generals are speechless at Lee Gun’s power.]

[Was the Goat Saint implying that Lee Gun is the Saint of the new god?]

[Lee Gun! Is he the Saint of the 13th god?]

That news was the reason Hugo broke out in a cold sweat. ‘Well, the talk about the thirteenth god isn’t completely wrong.’ Hugo was unsure about it, but Lee Gun’s abilities were outside the realm of the twelve gods. However…

‘Saint…? Him?’ Hugo gulped. He wasn’t trying to be dismissive of Lee Gun. He was reacting this way because those people’s assessment of Lee Gun was too low. ‘There is no way he’s merely in the Saint rank.’

Of course, Hugo didn’t know what Lee Gun was, so he couldn’t formulate the words either. He was sure of one thing, however. Lee Gun was higher in rank than the Saints. ‘Still, there is no way he is divine.’

While everyone speculated about Lee Gun, the person in question was indifferent. In fact, something else had captured his attention.

[The bible of the <Serpent Bearer> has been formed.]

[Since a secretary does not exist, the bible will be engraved into the Serpent Bearer’s holy ground.]

[Achievements: 0]

– Returned.

[Achievements: 1]

– Killed the devil from the ocean. Brought down the divine beast to his knees.

[The achievements engraved into the bible give your familiars inspiration and a model to follow.]

[The bible not only engraves the achievements of the Serpent Bearer but also records the achievements of the disciples.]

[As the achievements fill up, they can be expressed as power and authority.]

[As the bible fills up, the god’s authority starts to solidify.]

The voice was talking in complicated terms, but if he had to simplify it, the bible was like a biography. No, the bible was for a god, so it was more like a scripture.

This was interesting, but there was a problem!

[You’ve reached level 10]

[You’ve reached a specific milestone. Your tribulation of <Awakening of the Serpent Bearer> has started!]
