Chapter 41: My God, it wasn’t a made-up story (1)

“Hey!”

“I won’t do it.”

“I didn’t say anything yet…”

“Right! I’m not doing another archer contest, Mr. Lame Dad,” Lee Gun replied to his friend.

Crunch!

Hugo glared at Lee Gun. However, Lee Gun ignored him and looked at his record with a satisfied expression.

[Your win against the Archer Saint has humiliated the Sagittarius.]

[You have earned a massive amount of Saint EXP.]

[You have gained reputation.]

[The morale of your familiars has increased.]

Lee Gun had performed well, but in truth, the battle wasn’t won through only archery.

<Bowstring containing the Archer’s Resentment> S rank

– Ingredient Item

– In extreme situations, it increases accuracy by 70%

– It is almost impossible to snap (Tough as one’s personality)! S rank

<Small Thimble! A rank! (Increases Concentration)>

<Power of the Obsessed! S rank! (Tracks target)>

In truth, Lee Gun wanted to test these items in his match against Hugo. He had secretly incorporated them into his bowstring.

Even Hugo recognized Lee Gun’s talent with the bow, but it would be foolhardy to challenge the Archer Saint without proper equipment. This was especially true since Hugo specialized in long-distance sniping.

Lee Gun had used the stolen data from the midpoint of the match.

‘As expected of the data extracted from a Saint…’ He was very satisfied with the result.

On the other hand, Hugo was vexed by the fact that he had been spurned by his son.

[The Saggitarious is feeling tormented by the intolerable humiliation.]

[He states that this match was unfair.]

[He states that another match should be conducted with the treasure of the Archer on the line.]

“Hey! Did you hear what I said? Let’s do another match!”

Lee Gun just ignored Hugo as he manipulated the strings containing Hugo’s data. Soon, a rope appeared in his hands. ‘Anyway, I was able to work on all the ingredients I had acquired at the Exchange.’

Lee Gun had also tempered the bone. He just had to wait three days, then he would be able to make a weapon with it.

‘The only thing left is the fire.’ Lee Gun needed a fire for his forge. His Creation Workshop contained only a workbench; it didn’t have a forge. Moreover, the fire he needed wasn’t ordinary fire; he needed a monster’s special flame.

‘At the very least, it has to be rank A.’ In other words, he had to hunt the monsters in the red zone. ‘However, the red zone is too far away. It’ll be troublesome.’

If push came to shove, Lee Gun planned on bullying Hugo into summoning a Divine Flame for a whole day.

“Fine! Let’s put aside the contest for now!” Veins popped out on Hugo’s neck as he pointed at the desk. “Do something about that!”

His hands pointed out the phone in the office.

Brrrr!

Brrrrrrrrr!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Hugo was about to lose his mind as the constant ringing sound of the phone serenaded him. “Are you aware that we’ve received over two hundred calls since lunch?”

“Yes, yes! I know you’re popular. I’m so jealous of you.” Lee Gun remained nonchalant.

It made Hugo frustrated. “This is all because of you! The government is in an uproar! They are asking me if I’m hiding you! And if I am, I should bring you to them as soon as possible!”

“Really? It seems you’re having a lot of trouble because you have a distinguished friend. You don’t have to thank me.”

Hugo thought about breaking their friendship at that moment. “Whatever! Just go show your face!”

“Nope. I still have a long way to go before I’m fully leveled up.”

“Hey!” Hugo was about to let loose a barrage of swear words. However, he reigned himself in. It was clear that Lee Gun was trying to make him move at his pace.

With an unconcerned expression, Lee Gun said, “Let’s put that aside for now. I want you to go and recover my funds”

“What fund?”

“I heard a lot of contribution was received in my name.”

“Ah…”

That was true. After Lee Gun’s death, all the support was given to the twelve Zodiac Saints. Of course, even though Lee Gun had died, donations and tributes were sent to his estate nonetheless. It was a gesture from those who he had helped. Naturally, the other Saints had tried to take Lee Gun’s share in this too. 

That was why Hugo had gotten in a big fight with the others for them touching Lee Gun’s possessions. Ten years had passed since that fight.

‘They are trying to take his stuff to this day.’ This was true for the Saints that had a deep relationship with the Korean government. This included the Gemini Saint of Japan, Sheep Saint of China, and the Leo Saint of America; they were the most tenacious. They were salivating to this day, but the rightful owner had shown up.

Lee Gun laughed. “From the rumors I heard, some special items were donated.”

Hugo understood what Lee Gun wanted him to do, but the request left him dumbfounded. “You can go yourself. Didn’t you declare war against the government not too long ago?”

Lee Gun scrunched up his face in disgust. “If you go, I don’t have to see those assholes. If I go, I’ll have to hear their bullshit. There is no benefit for me in going there. It’ll be a waste of time. I’m busy!”

“You want me to waste my time?” Hugo shouted in anger, but for some reason, he started grinning. “If you aren’t there, the government won’t believe that you’re back. Do you realize how many Lee Gun impersonators show up to take the fund for themselves?”

Lee Gun remembered reading an article about that topic.

Hugo grinned with a triumphant expression. “You have no choice now. You have to show your face…”

“Alright! You can take that with you. Just say it’s me.”

“…?” Hugo was shocked when he saw what Lee Gun pointed at.

“?!”

Lee Gun was standing there with a hideously smashed face and angry eyes. Scars and wrinkles were all over his face. His shoulders and muscles were wide. However, it was apt to call him an ugly man. This was how Lee Gun looked twenty years ago.

It was the slime that had used its transformation skill to look like the past Lee Gun.

Lee Gun laughed in a triumphant manner. “That’s my amazing holy item. It’ll fool them.”

“Huh.” Hugo was dumbfounded.

As if the slime wanted to assure that it could do the job, it started doing poses Lee Gun would never do. If it didn’t act so oddly, everyone would be fooled except…

“Why does it have a full head of hair?”

“What?”

“This is you from 20 years ago. You were bal—”

“Shut up!”

“Kuhk!”

Hugo took a shot from Lee Gun.

[You’ve acquired data]

[Tactless Mouth (Increase Aggro +10%)]

At the end of the day, it didn’t matter.

It was true that Lee Gun was sending Hugo to the government because it was annoying. However, he had another reason behind it as well; he had more important things to do. “You take care of it while I’m gone.”

“Where are you going?”

Lee Gun’s final destination was Sophie’s press conference. However, he didn’t say it because he knew Hugo would get noisy. “It’s nothing. I’m going on a blind date.”

“Blind date?”

‘What kind of nonsense is he spouting?’ Hugo knew Lee Gun hated dealing with women. He hated dealing with people in general.

His eccentric personality had something to do with it, but it mainly had to do with his previous appearance.

Hugo never expected to hear such words out of Lee Gun’s mouth.

So what was this?

However, he soon accepted it. Lee Gun’s current face would make women give him their numbers in the street.

“I don’t know who you are meeting, but good luck wooing…”

“Ah, Sungjae. Where does your noona want to meet me?”

Hugo, who had been drinking his coffee, almost dropped his cup on the floor.

Luckily, the corner of the desk stopped it from falling.

“What did you just say?! Noona?”

As a father, he doted on his daughter. He was taken aback. He shot up to his feet.

“Cough… Wait a moment, you are going to meet… Is it my daughter?!”

Lee Gun, who was making a call, pretended as if he didn’t hear Hugo. He exited the room.

Hugo tried to chase after him, but he soon sat down.

He knew he wasn’t acting like an adult.

‘Yes. If it is Yooha, it’ll be fine.’

His daughter wasn’t as big of a fan as his son.

In fact, she had berated Sungjae for buying a limited edition Lee Gun figurine. She had made a big issue about how much the item cost.

His daughter was trustworthy. 

This was why Hugo relaxed as he looked at the Slime Lee Gun.

It seemed he would have to take the slime to meet the government officials.

[Don’t worry~ chu chu! ♪]

[He said to call him Oppa. Oppa~ Oppa ♪]

The Slime was watching an idol music video. It was dancing along to the video while it looked like Lee Gun

Hugo frowned.

Could they really get away with this?

<The Leo Saint is missing. The entire Leo temple is in a state of emergency.>

-hk989: Leo Saint fell towards the Red Zone. Hella Funny.

-fai: Why would he kidnap the Aquarius Saint? Lee Gun has a temper, but he isn’t immoral.

-ㅇㅇ: There is something there.

There was a buzz around the world in regards to the news.

Sophie felt like dying in the midst of it.

It was thanks to the reporters that rushed her after she left the hospital.

“Is there another reason why Lee Gun was unable to exit the tower 20 years ago?”

“Can you confirm that the Lee Gun’s message is real?”

“The message said, ‘Who kill me?’ What do you think it means?”

“Why are you having a press conference today? Will you address what happened at the Devil’s Tower 20 years ago?!”

Sophie almost swore when the reporters kept shouting their questions at her.

Why would she do a press conference to talk about what happened 20 years ago?!

That’s right.

The reporters were in a frenzy because Sophie had declared she would have a press conference today.

Why would she gather the reporters unless she had lost her mind?

‘I’m trying to hide what happened that day!’

On the other hand, there was a good reason why the events had developed this way.

[Please gather the reporters. I have to speak the truth about what happened 20 years ago.]

Someone had contacted the reporters using her name.

However, Sophie hadn’t done it.

‘That damn man…’

She was sure Lee Gun had used her phone while she was unconscious.

She was sure he was trying to drive her into a corner.

‘Is this why he kept me alive?’

Sophie trembled.

The world was buzzing at the news that she was holding a press conference.

‘I can’t believe it is being broadcast live around the world…!’

People were already talking about it in the streets.

The news and shows unrelated to the news like variety shows were talking about it.

All information about the press conference was being treated like breaking news.

A crowd was starting to form around the location where the press conference was being held.

However, she didn’t care about that.

If she spoke the truth, the other Zodiac Saints wouldn’t stand back and do nothing.

‘They might assassinate me.’

On the other hand, she couldn’t call off the press conference either.

‘It would make everyone that much more suspicious.’

What if she created a different narrative?

She tried to come up with an idea, but in the end, she was stumped.

Why?

– Do you remember what I fed you?

Sophie shook from fear as she clutched at her throat.

There was no adverse reaction yet, but Lee Gun had fed her something.

‘I think it was a ring.’

Sophie’s face turned pale as she turned on her handphone.

At this point, she had no choice.

‘I’ll use the rental skill.’

Sophie laughed as if she had come to a big decision.

Lee Gun wasn’t here. He had no idea what she was up to.

Sophie was about to do something with the handphone when it happened.

Brrrr.

“?!”

Sophie screamed when she saw the screen. She threw her handphone.

[Bedwetter♡-nim was registered as your friend.]

[Bedwetter♡-nim started following you.]

[Bedwetter♡-nim sent you a message.]

The notifications made it seem like Lee Gun was monitoring her.

[If you don’t do the press conference at 7 PM, I’ll kill you.]

She didn’t even need to check who had sent the message.
