The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero-Chapter 333

“I have to do unnecessary things like this because of that lowly god from the boonies.” The displeased Hades headed toward the heart of the tenth Dimensional floor.

Thanks to Lee Gun, he was coming back from the hospital. It didn’t come naturally to him.

‘What kind of power did that bumpkin bring from the earth?’

Hades clutched at his stomach, where Lee Gun had attacked. The god of the underworld had used quick judgment to expel Lee Gun, so the damage was superficial. However, this didn’t change that he felt crappy. Moreover, Hades’s expenses had increased for no reason thanks to him!

‘How much did they charge for a small wound like this?’

He had to get it fixed, so he had gone to a hospital. However, this wound didn’t fall under his medical insurance. Therefore, the hospital requested an absurd amount of money.

‘These bastards from the Divine world only care about money.’

Since his medical insurance hadn’t kicked in, the hospital of the Divine world was unimaginably expensive.

This was the reason Valhalla was in deep debt; they constantly went to war as they gathered warriors. The hospital fees exceeded the money they got from the spoils of war. They were always in the minus.

Olympus made their money through commerce instead of wars for a reason. They conquered all kinds of dimensions and colonized them. It led to these dimensions generating money for them.

Of course, Olympus used to have a legendary healing Divine status called Asclepius, and every god had tried to steal it. However, that wasn’t important right now.

“Open the door to Olympus!”

“Huhk. Hades-nim?”

“It’s the master of a Dimensional floor!”

At the heart of each floor was an enormous Divine world elevator that passed from the first to the twentieth floor.

Hades had arrived at the elevator to be transported, and his eyes held anger.

“Hurry up and move. I want to go to the third floor!”

“Yes!”

Hades ground his teeth as he grabbed his sore stomach.

‘I won’t forgive that snake god.’

If the Olympus Zodiacs heard of his plight, they would surely help him. This was also probably true for Kunlun and Valhalla, who had been present on the ship.

‘I spent the deposit to show them enormous goodwill.’

He had such thoughts as he reached the third floor and arrived in Olympus.

‘He’s a snake god with no backing. Killing him won’t be too hard…’

However, Hades’s expression crumpled as soon as the elevator door opened.

“Exterminate Olympus!!”

“Peace treat, my ass!”

“You guys are crooked and dirty!”

“…?????”

Hades’s eyes turned round.

This should be a place where the warm sunlight enveloped the city in a cozy manner. In the beautiful sky, airships of all kinds flew through the sky. The white skyscrapers always looked beautiful and elegant…

Elegant…

Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwahng!!!

“Kill them!! Kill all the Olympus bastards!”

“??????????”

Giants were throwing stones, and Taoist hermits were letting lightning fly. The white skyscrapers had turned into a battlefield.

Hades became more dumbfounded when he learned who had caused all of this.

“Where is Hades? We know you guys are hiding that bastard!”

“What nonsense are you spouting? We’re looking for Hades too!”

“Where the hell did that bastard run away after causing this mess?”

“Just shut up and send us Hades! We’ll decapitate him!”

“…???”

Hades’s expression was a sight to behold. “That’s Kunlun and Valhalla!”

He had given an enormous amount of time and effort to bring them over to his side. So why were they acting this way? However, that wasn’t important right now.

The Zodiacs of Olympus were about to mount an offensive against Kunlun and Valhalla. It made Hades desperate.

“Stop! Who are you guys attacking? They are guests!”

When the voice rang out, the Zodiacs of Olympus and the intruders all came to a sudden stop.

“Why are you guys fighting? Sheathe your swords right now…”

At that moment…

“Motherf—!!”

“What the hell did you say, you @#*%?”

They directed their Divine artifacts toward Hades. A strike from a Divine artifact could destroy a god’s soul, so Hades had no choice but to run away.

“Why are the honored guests suddenly acting this way?”

Hades soon realized the cause of this crazy situation.

“They said they were attacked on the ship by an entertainer hired by Hades-nim!”

“That entertainer said he was carrying out Hades-nim’s request!”

Hades was baffled by his Constructs’ explanation. “Entertainer? I never hired one…”

However, it didn’t take long for Hades to bite his tongue.

“He was tall and possessed commanding red eyes. He’s said to be a fighting-type god!”

“!”

“He was a humanoid low-rank god who smelled a lot like a human… When we inquired about him at the documentation center, only one god fit that description. His name is ‘None of your business’….”

Hades grabbed the back of his neck. It was that bastard!! He had wondered where the snake bastard had wormed himself into the tenth floor from. It was from the ship?!

The warriors of Valhalla didn’t care. They wore their divine armor as they extended their swords.

“You will dearly pay for insulting us!!”

Hades almost cussed. “Idiots! He wasn’t sent by me— Kuh-huhk!”

Just being grazed by the divine spear could kill a god. It let out a sharp roar.

In the end, Hades yelled, “Alright. I’ll take responsibility for everything!!”

“!”

Things had spiraled out of control. He had to get a handle on this at all costs.

‘I just have to make sure the Great Spirits do not hear about this.’

The Great Spirits were the great pillars that supported each force. Of course, Olympus had one too.

‘I just have to catch that snake bastard before he reaches Olympus.’

The snake bastard’s target was him. He was the one who had created this situation. While the party on the ship could be dismissed, the Great Spirit won’t hold back if the snake god crawled into Olympus. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

When that thought reached his mind, Hades immediately summoned his strongest Constructs, the dog-headed Constructs.

“I have a lead on that snake.” Hades took out a small glass bottle that he had secretly stolen from Lee Gun. “I’m glad I stole it as a contingency. I want you to track him down and make sure he never dreams about coming to Olympus.”

The Constructs took a sniff of the item.

“Ah!.”

“Did you find him?” Hades smirked as he immediately got ready to send his Constructs away. “Where is he? Is he on the eighteenth floor? Or did he already get booted by the Divine world to the twentieth floor?”

The dog-headed Constructs sweated.

“That is…”

“What is it?”

“O-Olympus….”

“What?”

“It says he’s already in Olympus!”

“…????”

Hades’s expression was a sight to behold.

How did he get here?

* * *

Lee Gun had been able to enter Olympus thanks to a mole(?). His eyebrows rose because of the man before him.

It was a blonde man in his late twenties. He had worn a white sleeveless tunic emblematic of the Olympus faction. This was Sagittarius, the Zodiac of the Sagittarius temple.

Lee Gun was currently in his private residence, and in the distance, servants wearing maid outfits were observing him. They were murmuring quite loudly.

“Who is he?”

“Isn’t he a low-rank god??”

“How can he get a direct meeting with one of the pillars of Olympus?”

On the other hand, Sagittarius looked at Lee Gun with a stiff face. “Mmm… That is… N-Nephew?”

Instead of answering, Lee Gun raised his fist.

When he saw Lee Gun’s savage expression, Sagittarius immediately changed his words. “S…Serpent Bearer.”

“What?”

Sagittarius was afraid of being hit by Lee Gun, but he lifted his finger to point behind Lee Gun. “Can you stop that?”

Pandemonium had broken out behind Lee Gun.

Kwahng! Kwahng!

A slime was going crazy and was vandalizing the surroundings.

Lee Gun had smuggled Clump of Creation Clay by putting it in a glass bottle. Of course, he couldn’t take out his items before he entered the Divine world. After he arrived here, he had received a penalty because of the counterfeit currency penalty. He couldn’t use any of his items.

[You have no reference. You cannot participate in any economic activity.]

[You are banned from fighting.]

[You cannot use any fighting skills and items.]

In other words, he had been deemed a criminal. He was prohibited from using public facilities, his bank account, and personal wealth. That was why Sagittarius had used his authority to release the restriction.

[Sagittarius has requested the Divine world for a temporary vouch for his character.]

[Item use restriction has been released.]

However, as soon as it was released, Lime started to destroy Sagittarius’s private residence.

Kwahng! Kwahng!

It destroyed the walls. The expensive furniture was eaten as if a rat had eaten them. Everything was a mess.

“Serpent Bearer! Stop that slime!”

Lee Gun sat on the sofa, sighing in annoyance. “Lime. You shouldn’t do that.”

“Oh. As expected…! Thank you—”

“It’s too weak. I want you to make it unrecoverable.”

Sagittarius screamed at his words. Lime turned into the Lee Gun of twenty years ago as it destroyed everything.

The Constructs turned pale from fright when they saw this.

‘A psycho appeared.’

Sagittarius was aggrieved as he lost all his belongings. “I kept you hidden until now. Doesn’t that mean…”

Lee Gun let out his murderous intent. He looked at Sagittarius as if to ask whether the Zodiac wanted to die.

“In the first place, why are you here?”

“!” 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

“Your Zodiac Saint was sold off, so why are you doing nothing here? That lolicon bastard is keeping Taeksoo imprisoned, yet you stood back and watched?” Lee Gun gave him a death glare as he raised his fists again.

Sagittarius started to sweat.

“It seems you’re part of the Olympus faction, like Hades. Are you sulking because Taeksoo is part of the Serpent Bearer temple? Is that why you ignored him?”

“No! I have a good reason for doing this!”

“What is it?”

Sagittarius wasn’t acting dignified at all as the elder uncle. However, he was in an awkward position.

He had naturally thought about retrieving Hugo, but he couldn’t enter Hades’s territory. They were enemies. Moreover, it was said that Hades had paid a fair price to have Hugo transferred to the netherworld.

If Sagittarius stepped forward, it was immediate grounds for war.

‘Also, Hades has the registry for my subordinates.’

If Sagittarius moved, Hades would take the lives away of every Construct under Sagittarius.

“He’s a nasty piece of work. He killed his adoptive father to steal his Divine status. He even acquired Persephone through inheritance.”

“Inheritance?”

“The gods of the Divine world can be grouped into three large categories.”

The first was Inheritance—in other words, reincarnation in conjunction with killing the previous god. The killer god would inherit the Divine status, and the god would be reborn into the seat.

Basically, their personality and memories were completely different. However, their powers and Constructs were seamlessly handed over. This was why the god could use its power after being born. Hence, this was the most commonly used method in battle. It created a pure-blooded god.

The second one was Transfer. In other words, a god died a natural death or voluntarily handed over the Divine status.

When the twelve Zodiacs had stolen the power of the original owners and when Lee Gun had stolen the Zodiac’s powers, both fell into these categories.

The only downside was that it wasn’t one’s original power. This was why digesting it took time. Moreover, one could also fail to acquire the power, depending on one’s talent and inclination.

The third way was a Newborn God. A child was born between two gods, or a spirit, item, or a human was deified. The details didn’t matter. A new god was born. The downside would be that the god had to start from the lowest ranks.

However, that wasn’t important right now.

“Hades kidnapping Hugo has to do with the seat of the Great Spirit.”

“Great Spirit?”

Sagittarius extended his finger to draw stars in the air. It was a star with nine points, a nonogram where three triangles overlapped onto each other.

“This is the Divine world. Each point is controlled by the eight great forces. Currently, we are located in the 12 o’clock direction.”

It was where the Olympus faction lived.

Lee Gun had a rough understanding.

‘When I used the pass, it said district A.’

The Divine world was probably made out of nine worlds, and they each possessed floors numbered from 1 to 20.

The center was where all of them were connected. In reality, each district was connected in five-floor increments.

“Anyway, there is a contest for the seat of the Great Spirit. The gods are fighting each other for this important seat.”

“What does that have to do with Taeksoo?”

Lee Gun raised his fist as if to say “don’t speak in a roundabout way.”

Sagittarius whimpered. “It’s a period where everyone is trying to grow their power. Everyone’s limit is stage 5, so everyone is aiming for stage 5. A Construct with 600% would allow a god to grow their power…”

When sparks flew in Lee Gun’s eyes, Sagittarius quickly spoke up. “Anyway, he’s a rare Construct! Even the Great Spirits are interested in him, so my hands are tied— Kuhk!”

In the end, the nephew kicked the uncle.

“Master!!”

“Your excuse is too long. It just means you were just scared.”

“No!” Sagittarius was about to speak again, but he refrained.

Amongst the Great Spirits that wanted Hugo, some had a grudge against the “Creator” tribe. Although he regained his memories late, Sagittarius was part of the Creator tribe. If he got close, he would be hacked to death.

“Anyway, nephew….”

Lee Gun had an expression as if he would kill Sagittarius if the god of the sun called him nephew one more time.

Sagittarius flinched. “Serpent Bearer, give up on Hugo. Go back to where you came from. Look at this.”

He took out one of the paper planes that Hugo had let fly while in captivity. “My subordinates were staking out, and they were able to acquire this.”

Lee Gun’s eyes turned round when he unfurled the paper plane. Inside the paper plane seemed to be words written with Hugo’s penmanship.

[Gun, you don’t have to come looking for me.]

[I love it here.]

[I’ll meet a new family and have a great life here. You should have a happy life too.]

[Don’t interfere with my happiness any longer. Go have a kid with Ms. Yeonwoo and have a nice life.]

[Nothing good happened to me after you returned.]

Sagittarius let out a light sigh. “This is what he wants— Kuhk!”

Sagittarius received a kick from Lee Gun’s running shoes. And he soon started shaking. It was for no other reason.

“Nephew!! Your Divine Status! Divine Status!”

The stage 6 Divine Statuses, which had been sealed with Lee Gun’s body, were starting to leak out. His power subsided before it turned into something ugly.

Lee Gun seemed enraged. “Do you think a family man like him would have written something like this?”

“…!”

“I was going to return after I found Taeksoo. This was why I didn’t cause any trouble until now. I held myself back.”

“Hey, Serpent Bearer, you already turned Olympus into a mess.”

“Since this was my first time coming to this place, it was hard keeping a low profile.”

“You turned Kunlun and Valhalla on their heads!”

Lee Gun ignored him as he asked, “Is Hades here?”

“He is, but….”

“If so…”

“?”

“Which faction is on the worst terms with that bastard?”

“What?”

The god of calamity let out an evil smirk. “He messed with something he shouldn’t have.”
