“Thank you for leading the way!”

The faces of the gods froze.

A male god looking to be either in his late teens or early twenties had suddenly shown up before them. He had red eyes, which were considered ominous even in the Divine world.

‘This bastard…’

However, they were shocked for an entirely different reason.

‘We couldn’t sense his presence.’

They were here to find Hugo under the pillar gods’ orders. Although they took orders from the pillar gods, they were still Zodiacs of Olympus.

While Olympus had recently pivoted to commerce and trade, it still had gods considered the kings of the battlefield. These were the gods who had taken numerous heads of Constructs in the battle between factions.

They were confident that they would never let an enemy get behind them. Therefore, they immediately unsheathed their weapons.

“Who are you?”

“Who are you to enter the holy palace of the Great Spirit— Kuh-huhk!”

Lee Gun didn’t even bother listening to them. He slammed the face of his opponent against the wall.

Kwahng!

“Whatever! Open the door so I can find Pushover, idiots.”

“…?!”

They had never seen his face before, but they recognized the voice. Moreover, he had mentioned Pushover.

The gods glared at him.

“That voice…! Was it you?”

“You’re the one who broadcasted that psychotic announcement!”

There was no mistaking it. He was the damn bastard who had taken the entirety of Olympus hostage! At the same time, they realized a shocking truth.

‘Crazy! Someone immature like him killed Hades?’

‘He smells like a human.’

‘Someone like that…!’

Lee Gun was a god, but he smelled too much like a human. This wasn’t welcoming news to the gods.

On the other hand, Lee Gun merely cracked his knuckles. While his debt wouldn’t allow him to take out Heaven’s Punishment, he didn’t care about that. “Hurry up and open the door. He’s somewhere in there, right?”

“Call the pillar gods here!”

“Die! Do you think we’ll let someone who smells like a human enter the Great Spirit’s palace— Kuh-huhk!”

Lee Gun’s red eyes flashed as he disappeared. Brushing past the gods, he used his ability of Death.

[Soul Dismantle (4 star)]

A black shadow surged forward, and the gods screamed. When Lee Gun’s hands touched them, a black wind swept them up, and they disappeared without a trace.

The other gods were frightened when the souls of some gods ceased to exist in front of their eyes.

‘Wait a…’

They seemed to have seen something shocking. It was to be expected since gods didn’t die easily. Unless one messed with their life expectancy, a healing god could easily revive them. This was contingent on the soul being intact.

Yet now, they felt as if the souls of the gods had been ground up!

Lee Gun approached the trembling gods. He had raised the Divine statuses of Life and Death from stages 1 to 6.

Of course, he couldn’t claim that he had methodically raised the stages, but each level possessed a unique ability.

In the case of Death stage 1, the ability was “Eliminate.” It was a basic technique of Death that erased everything, including physical matter. It could be used in a variety of ways, including eliminating armor or skills.

The 2nd stage was “Reaper Summon.” It allowed Lee Gun to summon the deceased. Moreover, it could make the dead submit to him.

The 3rd stage was “Pond Walk (Warp).” With this skill, Lee Gun could travel to locations that possessed shadows, evil intent, and death.

The 4th stage was what he had just used. While Stage 1 Eliminate could temporarily destroy and eliminate everything, stage 4 was different.

‘Soul Disassemble!’

Body, soul, mind, personality, and even non-physical things could be ground up using this technique!

The gods were in disbelief as they watched their peers get disassembled. In the end, they had a realization.

‘That bastard…!’

‘Could it be…!’

Someone spoke aloud what the gods were inwardly thinking. “You are a high-rank god?”

Accompanying the harsh voice, an attack came crashing toward Lee Gun.

Kwah-gwa-gwahng!!

A barrage of red light fell from the sky. Lee Gun immediately moved away.

A male god wearing a leather jacket appeared at the spot where the light hit, and the situation was as if a missile had detonated there.

“I never expected the snake god, who attacked the other gods, to be a brat.”

It wasn’t just one pillar god. Several had appeared.

There was the God of war Ares, Master of the sea Poseidon, and…

‘Ahhhk!!! Why is that kid here?’

Sagittarius had followed the other Zodiacs here, and he almost screamed. He had desperately stopped the other gods from going after Lee Gun, but when the gods mentioned they were going to hide the other parts of Hugo, he followed them.

Sagittarius planned on monitoring the situation and stealing away Hugo, but he froze when he saw Lee Gun.

‘Does he realize what I went through to stop them from going after him?’

However, that wasn’t important right now.

“I’ll make sure that snake bastard can’t even pass on his power.”

The war god looked like a delinquent as his eyes flashed.

When he tried to take out his Divine item, Sagittarius froze.

‘All the pillar gods are gathering here.’

If Lee Gun got surrounded by them, he would have a tough time putting up a fight against them. This was why Sagittarius quickly contacted Virgo.

[Where are you? Stop watching Lee Gun in secret. Hurry up and come to the palace of the Great Spirit?!]

The reply came fast.

[Nope. If I go, I’ll be found out immediately because of my life expectancy.]

“!!”

Sagittarius was about to accuse Virgo of running away by herself when…

Poseidon’s eyes flashed as he tried to activate his ability. “I’ll decapitate you and mount your head on top of Olympus’s front gate.”

The master of the sea gathered liquid from the air, intending to kill Lee Gun. However…

Shwehhhhk!!!

“??!!”

A frightening light arrow flew toward him from the back. Poseidon flinched. When he realized who had shot the arrow, he glared at the person. “Louis! Where the hell are you shooting at? I told you to aim for the snake god’s head!”

Sagittarius held his light arrow, looking sad. “Ahhh! I’m sorry! I’m getting old. My eyes aren’t what they used to be.”

Sagittarius clicked his tongue as he tried to take out his Divine item.

Shwehhhhk!!

Once again, an arrow flew toward Poseidon, and this time, the master of the sea became angry. “Louis!!!”

“Oh man! My joints are aching! Phew! You should reach my age. Everything is hard to do.”

“I’m older than you by ten years! How dare you!”

Sagittarius clicked his tongue. If he combined his life as part of the Creator tribe, he was much older than Poseidon. It didn’t matter.

‘I’m sure nephew will go easy on me now—’

When Sagittarius glanced at Lee Gun, he froze. With a bright smile on his lips, Lee Gun mouthed something.

‘You!’

‘You brought them here!’

‘You are dead!’

No, he hadn’t!

Kwahng!!

When an explosion occurred within the palace of the Great Spirit, all the gods flinched.

“That direction is…!”

Lee Gun’s red eyes flashed as he laughed. “Yes. It seems they found him.”

“…!!”

Finally, Lee Gun had no reason to stall them anymore. He let out a cold smile.

The god of war raised his eyebrows.

‘Could it be?’

Poseidon seemed to have realized what was going on, so he contacted the goddess of wisdom and war.

The goddess hadn’t come here. She was left in charge of Pushover.

“The snake god’s comrades went that way. Catch them!”

Yes, Lee Gun hadn’t come here alone. While he kept the gods busy, Yooha and Hugo had already been on the move.

Yooha was the Zodiac Saint of Death. She possessed techniques that used the power of Death. If she used “Hide Presence (Stealth)” and “Passage through Space,” she could easily walk around the palace undetected.

Poseidon struck the ground, causing water to appear on the ground. Then, he shouted in a sharp manner, “I call to all the gods.”

[Olympus’s 12 Pillar Summon (5 star)]

Sagittarius flinched when the bomb went off.

‘What? I’m here, yet he used it?’

This skill was used during the battle between the factions.

Nine pillar gods were summoned from the floor. That wasn’t all.

“That’s him!”

All the scattered gods converged upon them.

When all the gods were gathered in one place, Lee Gun smirked. “Too late, idiots.”

He immediately used his power.

[Pond Walk (3 star)]

A black rotating space appeared behind Lee Gun.

The gods scrunched up their faces. They could tell what kind of ability it was by seeing the energy it was emanating. This was clearly a teleportation-type ability! It made the gods scoff.

“Teleportation abilities are useless in front of the Messenger God.”

The Messenger god could track any god he saw. This was why Hermes could summon anyone once he met them. Moreover, he could track any being even to the depths of hell.

However, Lee Gun laughed. “Where is the Messenger god?”

“…!”

Poseidon blanched when he looked at the pillar gods he had summoned. Aside from the gods whose intentions he didn’t know, he had summoned them all. However, Hermes was not among the summoned.

This surprised the master of the sea. Did Hermes refuse the summon? That couldn’t be the case.

‘He was the most involved in the work involving Pushover. There is no way he would fail to show up when we are about to lose Pushover.’

Hermes had cut away the best parts of Pushover so that he could give it to the Great Spirit. Why would he look on and do nothing?

In the end, Poseidon once again used his ability to summon Hermes.

Flash!

“…!!!”

Something did get summoned within the flash of light. However, when the gods saw what it was, they screamed.

“Ahhhk!!!”

“Wait a moment…!!”

It was a bloodied arm! The arm looked like it had been chewed on by a beast. Half of it was bone, and the other half was mangled flesh.

Nevertheless, the gods immediately recognized who the arm belonged to.

“Hermes-nim!”

“The messenger god is…!”

Poseidon’s face hardened.

‘The Messenger god is dead?’

That wasn’t the real problem.

‘Only one being could treat a god like a piece of meat.’

It was as he expected.

“It seems the recipient was really happy”

“!!!”

Lee Gun’s ability of Death stage 3 had developed after he had killed a clone of the Abyss.

[Stage 3 ability of Death has been influenced.]

[The stats of the ability of Death stage 3 have increased.]

Lee Gun laughed like a fox as he put his hand into the rotating space.

[Pond Walk(3 star)]

When he tried to disappear, the gods rushed after him.

Lee Gun smiled when he saw this. “Eat this.”

“?!”

He picked up a bomb that he had sent to the Great Spirit of Ennead and the monarch.

Sagittarius flinched at the sight of the bomb.

‘That is…!’

He knew what had happened to the Great Spirit when that bomb struck him.

‘No!’

Sagittarius desperately tried to stop his nephew, but Lee Gun nonchalantly threw the bomb.

“Ah!!”

Lee Gun put his hand through the Pond Walk (Warp) space and instantly disappeared.

Flash!

Then, a light encircled the palace of the Great Spirit.
