Chapter 363 - Would you look at this guy? (3)


    In a sh, the pet cafe turned into a scene of carnage.


    Sagittarius had no choice but to scream. The reason was naturally Lee Gun. “No. Wait a moment! Let it go!”


    “No way I''m letting go, baldie. You’re going to run away again, right?”


    “No! You got the wrong guy!”


    Sagittarius tried to break free from Lee Gun’s hand, which was grabbing the back of his neck.


    ‘Damn it! Why is he so strong?’


    It didn’t look like Lee Gun was gripping very hard, yet his hand was like stone. It wouldn’t budge. Desperate, Sagittarius shouted, “Sir! I’m a meless employee of this ce! That’s why— Ahhk!”


    Lee Gun pulled off the animal mask on Sagittarius’s face. His face caused amotion.


    “Louis-nim?!”


    “My god! Why would someone of that caliber work as a butler here?”


    Sagittarius started to sweat. “Haha, Serpent Bearer. I never expected you to like a ce such as this! Yes, your taste is important. Which animal are you here to see? I’ll introduce—”


    “Hey, do you want your hair ripped out?” Angry, Lee Gun grabbed Sagittarius’s wig.


    Sagittarius immediately defended his wig as he cried out, “Pardon me all to hell! Master!!”


    The crowd, who had been exiting the store, became surprised by this sight.


    “What the hell? Who’s that kid? Why’s the White Reaper bowing down to him??”


    “Why is a god of his caliber working a part-time job here?”


    Sagittarius started to sweat when he heard those words. There was a simple reason he hade to Leo.


    ‘He’s the most tight-lipped.’


    Sagittarius was close to Virgo. They were close enough to freely go in and out of each other''s rooms. However, she enjoyed being led by someone else. This was true for the other gods.


    This was embarrassing to admit, but Sagittarius had a lot of enemies in the Divine world. Therefore, he had gone to Leo!


    ‘Absolute Safety!’


    Of course, the negotiation hadn’t been easy. When Sagittarius had met him, Leo had an incredulous look on its face as it scratched with its paw.


    [I understand your situation, but why do I have to help you?]


    [Why else? Have you forgotten the promise we made a long time ago?]


    [I don’t care about that. I’m going to sleep. Fuck off! I want to sleep until the butler brings my food.]


    [Damn it!!]


    Leo couldn’t be bothered by the conversation, so it hadin on the ground. However, Sagittarius hadn’t given up.


    ‘The gods might avoid Leo as if it is a psycho, but for me, there is no better ce to be than here.’


    Leo was once a baby lion fostered by An. However, Leo didn’t care about others, including An. This was why Leo was much more trustworthy for Sagittarius.


    Sagittarius had looked after Leo since the lion was young. This was why he spoke up.


    [Kargo! It’ll be very advantageous for you if you hide me!]


    [There is no way that’s true. In the first ce, you’re a god of debauchery. There is nothing advantageous you can offer me…]


    [If you hide me, you’ll be able to meet Lee Gun!!]


    [!?]


    It didn’t matter if one offered offerings, promises, or all kinds of good stuff. Leo rejected them all. Only Lee Gun’s name made its eyes sh.


    [If I hide you, I’ll be able to meet Lee Gun?]


    [Yes! Didn''t you hear? Lee Gun entered the Divine world.]


    [What? He did?]


    [Yes! He’lle chasing after me. If I’m not here, he won’t even think about seeing you. If I’m here, wouldn’t hee here?]


    […!]


    [If you hide me, I’ll make sure to instigate a fight between you and Lee Gun.]


    Sagittarius let out a wicked smile when he saw Leo’s eyes sh.


    ‘Alright. I convinced him!’


    He had said Lee Gun woulde looking for him, but he knew the truth.


    ‘There is no way Lee Gun woulde to a pet cafe.’


    He just had to shut his mouth and keep out of sight…


    ‘Damn it! I didn’t expect him to reallye here!’


    Did someone witness him? Sagittarius let out a cold sweat as Lee Gun shed a menacing smile.


    Lee Gun’s eyes shed as he dragged Sagittarius away. “Let’s skip the small talk. We can go home if we sell you. You just have toe with us for a short time and help us.”


    “Wait a moment. That makes no sense!” Sagittarius struggled as he looked for his allies.


    ‘Damn it! They all ran away!’


    It seemed they were afraid of Lee Gun, who was holding Heaven’s Punishment. The gods who were supposed to help Sagittarius were nowhere to be seen.


    Of course, Lee Gun’s first instinct had been to skin the beast gods, so them running away in fright was understandable.


    At that moment, a nude eagle god, who had its feathers all plucked out, emitted light from its neck.


    It was the same Communication stone ne that Lee Gun possessed.


    [Oh, Construct of Leo. The resourcesing from there suddenly stopped. Did something happen?]


    “!”


    The eyes of Lee Gun and Hugo turned round when they heard a familiar voice. At the same time, a familiar face appeared above the luminescent ne. It was a hologram made out of light.


    “Stevens?!”


    The one to appear was none other than the Leo Saint. Hugo was surprised by his appearance, and Stevens was the same.


    [What the hell? I see you’re fine, Hugo— Ahhk!! What happened to the Constructs?]


    Stevens was shocked as he looked at the birds of the prey-type gods, who had their feathers all plucked out. All the fallen gods had lost their dignity. They looked like boiled chicken. This made Stevens rage.


    [Who would do such a cruel act—]


    “What did you just say?”


    The angry Stevens could speak no longer.


    [Lee… Lee Gun!?]


    His face turned pale when he saw Lee Gun standing there with a menacing expression on his face.


    [What the hell? Why are you there?]


    On the other hand, Lee Gun looked offended by Stevens’s face. “Whatever. You’re dead.”


    [What?!]


    “When we get back to the earth, you’re dead.”


    [What? Why?]


    “Moreover, you will never get another weapon from me.”


    [Why!!!!]


    “Lastly, I’ll make sure you won’t be able to have any descendants.”


    Why was this happening? Stevens was aggrieved to hear this out of the blue.


    He looked at Hugo, but Hugo avoided his gaze. “I-I’m sorry. May you rest in peace.”


    [What?!]


    This was all happening because Hugo had told Lee Gun a story about Stevens in their conversation about Hailey. It was the story of the early days when the Zodiac Saints had met for the first time and Stevens had hit on Hailey.


    However, Hugo took no responsibility as he acted oblivious. He grabbed Lee Gun, who was shootingsers from his eyes. “Anyway, let’s take him before anyonees to stop us—”


    Kwahng!!!


    “Do you really think I’ll let you guys leave?”


    “!!”


    A savage voice rang out as the second floor of the cafe was destroyed. The cafe building was shaped like a ‘?’. There was no ceiling, so it had a hole in the middle. Therefore, when the walls of the second floor were destroyed, the debris fell to the first floor.


    Kwahn! Kwahng!


    “Kyahhhk!”


    “M-My word! It’s Leo!”


    Leo was a lion god that possessed golden fur. His fur was considered beautiful even in the Divine world.


    Of course, Leo’s skin had various bald patches where the fur was missing. It was as if it had alopecia.


    The enormous lion that emitted a golden light was over five meters tall, and it revealed its savage teeth.


    Lee Gun snorted.“That cat dares do that?”


    Leo already had its fur and teeth taken on the earth. Of course, on earth, Leo was unable to use 100% of its power. The synchronization rate with its Zodiac Saint had been low too.


    That was why Leo always said it’d rip apart Lee Gun and told him toe to the Divine world.


    Leo growled as it let out a fierce Divine power. “I’m d you’re here, you little rat!”


    It seemed determined to destroy its store. Golden lightning struck the surrounding area.


    Kwha-jee-jeek!


    Hugo groaned when he saw the lightning. This was on a different levelpared to when Leo had descended to the earth.


    At the time, it had felt like a clone that could use only 10% of its power. Now, it was apletely different story!


    [Caution! Leo is one of the fighting gods of Mahabharata.]


    Lee Gun snorted at the voice. This was why Leo was able to be a Zodiac of a battle-type temple.


    Lee Gun dodged like a mole in a whack-a-mole game. Landing lightly, he said, “Hey. I have no business with you. I came to recover this guy. You know that a bounty was ced on him, right?”


    “Of course, I know. The Great Spirit of Ennead ced a massive amount of bounty on him. Louis does have a lot of enemies.”


    “If you know…”


    “I’m sorry, but that is all the more reason I can’t let you do it!”


    “!!”


    Kwahng!!


    Leo attacked Lee Gun with its enormous front paw. “Do you think I’ll stand by and watch some other god profit!!”


    An angry Lee Gun smirked. “Hey, you want to die? I have to go back home.”


    The remark made Leo savagelyugh. “I know what you’re thinking about doing, but do you think it’ll solve your problem? Also…”


    “?”


    “Why the hell do you want to go to the lowly earth? You should live here infort and safety!! You can continue to be my sparring partner here!”


    As soon as it spoke, it emanated a powerful energy wave. Then, something surprising happened.


    [Leo has transformed into a fierce battle-type god.]


    Leo still had the head of a lion, but its body turned into that of a human.


    Lee Gunughed as if he was angry. “I was going easy on you because there was a chance that my debt could go up.”


    This wasn’t something that made sense since Lee Gun had ruthlessly taken the leather and feathers of the Constructs.


    Anyway, Lee Gun raised Heaven’s Punishment. The power that a Divine item could generate in the Divine world was on a different level.


    Koo-goo-goohng!


    After receiving Lee Gun’s Divine power, Heaven’s Punishment let out a fierce roar. It was about to sh against Leo when…


    “…!”


    Lee Gun flinched.


    [The thief has stolen something precious.]


    Lee Gun turned his head when he heard the voice. He furrowed his brows.


    Sagittarius was gone. Hailey and Hugo, who had been looking over Sagittarius, were gone too.


    Lee Gun’s eyes shed.


    * * *


    Around that time…


    “Did we lose the snake god?!”


    “Yes! The person blocking the snake god is one of the ten Avatara, Leo. Even if the snake god was able to bring down Olympus, there is no way he can easily get past Leo and chase after us!”


    “Good! This bastard must never fall into the hands of the snake god!”


    “Yes!”


    This was the outer edge of the neutral zone.


    Sagittarius sighed as he was taken by some kidnappers.


    ‘I can’t believe these guys are helping me.’


    Yes, while Lee Gun was shing against Leo, Sagittarius had been kidnapped by one of the eight great forces. Moreover, Sagittarius had purposefully let himself be kidnapped.


    ‘I just have to avoid my nephew and the Great Spirit of Ennead. It doesn’t matter who takes me.’


    If he were handed over as a wanted person, he would surely fall into the hands of the Great Spirit of Ennead!


    Moreover, Leo was affiliated with Mahabharata, and they hated Ennead. This was why they were trying to pocket him.


    ‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to hide within the Mahabharata.’


    However…


    “Do you think I’ll let you leave?”


    “?!”


    When fierce arrows flew toward them, the gods were taken aback. They used Sagittarius as a shield.


    Kwahng!!


    Sagittarius vomited blood after taking the bombardment.


    “Kuhk…! Kuh-huhk! Hugo! Do you n on killing your master? Moreover, I’m human right now! Kuhk!”


    Hugo ignored Sagittarius’s words as he pulled back on his bow. The gods, who were surprised by Hugo’s appearance, started tough.


    “If there is only one, it’ll be fine. Let’s just run—”


    “I’m sorry, but there are two of us.”


    “!”


    Hugo hade out in the open as bait.


    The gods flinched when they saw Hailey blocking their path. They tried to take out their Divine items, yet they couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw their opponent.


    ‘That face… I’ve seen it before.’


    There was no way they would forget a beauty of her caliber. They were thinking about it when they did a double-take.


    ‘Wait a moment! Doesn’t she look like the young girl that the Great Zodiac put a bounty on?’


    ‘You are right…!’


    They were taken aback. One of the gods handed over Sagittarius to the other. This wasn’t the time to act indecisively.


    ‘I’ll tell the superiors about this woman. You stop them. We have to take advantage of Leo stalling the snake god.’


    ‘Yes. He knows better than anyone that it’ll be very troublesome if Sagittarius is sold off. At the very least, Leo will block…’


    “You bastards!!!”


    “?!”


    The gods of Mahabharata heard a voiceing from the sky. Their mouths fell open.


    “L-Leo?!”


    Instead of blocking Lee Gun, their ally had chased after them. They had been barely able to kidnap Sagittarius, so this development left them dumbfounded.


    Leo was supposed to interfere with the snake god so that they could prevent another faction from taking benefits!


    So what was going on?


    “Why did you follow us?”


    “I thought you agreed to stop the snake god for Mahabharata?!”


    “While you were blocking the snake god, we nned on….”


    Leo expressed its anger instead. “Who cares? The snake god also went missing when you guys stole Sagittarius! Give him back!”


    The two gods were at their wits’ end when Leo started attacking them.


    “Damn it! You’re supposed to be one of the ten great Avatara!”


    Like the twelve pir gods of Olympus, each faction had its officer gods. Leo was also an officer god of Mahabharata.


    ‘Shit! At this rate…!’


    “I was wondering where you guys ran away. You made it only this far?”


    “!!”


    Lee Gun appeared before them.


    The gods tensed as they immediately got into their offensive stance.


    “We heard tales about you, snake god.”


    “However, we won’t be easily defeated like Olympus…”


    “Bastards!!! You want to die! How dare you aim for my prey!”


    “Damn it!!!”


    Leo attacked them as if to say it didn’t want them toy a hand on Lee Gun.


    The gods of Mahabharata, who were on the same side as Leo, pounded their chests in frustration.


    When Leo started causing a scene, Sagittarius was sent flying through the air, and Lee Gun immediately took possession of him.


    Due to this, Sagittarius begged for forgiveness as he pleaded for his case, “Please, Nephew. Don’t hand me over. If I’m handed over to the Great Spirit of Ennead, I’m dead.”


    Lee Gunughed. “Don’t worry! I have no n on selling my only uncle to them.”


    “Nephew…! That means…!”


    “I’m going to sell you to the goddesses of fate as their husband.”


    “Yes! Goddesses of fate… What did you just say?!”


    Sagittarius looked more frightened as his face turned pale.


    “No! Those women are worse than…!!”


    It seemed they had heard Lee Gun’s words at that moment.


    Hoohng!


    Sagittarius’s body suddenly became blurry.


    [The goddesses of fate are happy as they take their prospective husband.]


    Leo, the gods of Mahabharata, Hugo, and Hailey were all shocked by the sight.


    Lee Gun smirked.


    ‘It is going as nned.’
