The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero-Chapter 349

Lee Gun looked at the woman, dumbfounded.

‘Saint Mask?’

If she wanted to bamboozle him, she should do it properly. She had worn a golden mask with feathers. Lee Gun wondered if she really thought she could wear a shoddy mask to fool him.

“Kuhk…!”

Athena vomited blood after being stabbed by Yeonwoo. She then glared at her opponent. It was for no other reason.

‘She is…!’

Her gaze remained locked on Yeonwoo. The mask didn’t allow Athena to see Yeonwoo’s face, but the gods could sense each other’s souls. Although it didn’t feel the same as before, Athena felt that this soul was familiar.

‘She smells like one of the twin snakes…’

This newcomer smelled like the twin snakes who had acted as the temporary Zodiac for the Serpent Bearer temple. This surprised Athena.

‘Weren’t those snakes executed after their owner was killed?’

The head of the thirteen Zodiacs had been a Creator named Aslan. He was the Zodiac of the Serpent Bearer temple.

Aslan and his twelve comrades had lost their minds and were executed by their Constructs. It had been a huge scandal within the Divine world. It was to be expected since one of the nine great factions had been destroyed.

The thirteen gods who had been executed were the Creators, who had been called the gods of blessings.

Anyway, the Creators had been wiped out at that time, and the twin snakes had succeeded Aslan. However, they were also executed when they were accused of using the magic of the evil gods.

So why was Athena smelling the snake, who was executed a long time ago?

No, that wasn’t important right now.

‘The Constructs under the Serpent Bearer are the problem!’

Back then, the Serpent Bearer sat atop the Divine world because of the quality of his Constructs. When the Serpent Bearer temple had fallen, the Great Spirits of the eight great factions had gleefully stolen the Serpent Bearer’s Constructs.

Each faction was still using those Constructs as important slaves. While the twin snakes might have been temporary Zodiacs, they belonged to the Serpent Bearer temple.

‘Those slaves might react to her…!’

The old Constructs of the Serpent Bearer temple might get the wrong idea and rebel. They might try to escape. That would be troublesome.

‘The other Creators aren’t the problem.’

The magic god Aslan had been a cheat-like existence. It was different for the other Creators, who were executed alongside him.

‘The fact that they were usurped by their Constructs means that the Creator tribe wasn’t that big of a deal.’

This was why Athena was skeptical of finding the Creators. However, it was a completely different story for the Constructs, which had been stolen from the Serpent Bearer temple.

Oblivious to all of this, Lee Gun looked at Yeonwoo with his brows furrowed. “Hey, Ji Yeonwoo. Why are you here?”

Yeonwoo, who had worn a fancy festival mask with gold trim and feathers, started sweating. “J-Ji Yeonwoo? I’m Saint Mask. I’m not Yeonwoo.”

Lee Gun scoffed. “You really thought I wouldn’t recognize you?”

Shocked, Yeonwoo sweated even more. “I-I’m not her! I came here because Miss Yeonwoo asked me to! I’m Saint Mask!!!”

“What the hell are you doing at your age?”

Yeonwoo wanted to cry.

But Lee Gun clicked his tongue. “Why are you here? What about Miss Jiwoo? No, how were you able to come here?”

“Ah, Miss Jiwoo! I left my clone— No. I meant Miss Yeonwoo is taking good care of her! Anyway, I came here because I needed to deliver something to you!”

“Ah! Is that so?” Lee Gun still looked at her with an incredulous expression.

On the other hand, Yeonwoo surveyed her surroundings. “Excuse me, Serpent Bearer.”

“What.”

Yeonwoo looked around Lee Gun as if she were looking for someone. “Do you… Do you have a party? Are you here with someone? ”

Lee Gun tilted his head in puzzlement. “I’m alone.”

“W-What about Yooha? From what I heard, she followed you…”

“Yooha is with her father.” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

For a variety of reasons, Yeonwoo felt a sense of relief as she took a deep breath. Then she asked another question as if she had just remembered something else. “Ah! Is there anyone else aside from her…”

“Anyone else?”

“Do you have a party member aside from her?”

Lee Gun tilted his head in puzzlement. He had no idea why she was acting this way. “I got my Constructs. Who else would be here? I told everyone to stay on the earth.”

After getting the confirmation, Yeonwoo looked very relieved. “Then take this. I brought it here just in case… Miss Yeonwoo wanted me to give this to you.”

“!”

Yeonwoo brought out the weapons Lee Gun had made. He had made them on the earth by grinding up monarchs.

“I knew you didn’t take the bow.”

When Yeonwoo opened the rifle case she was carrying, Lee Gun was pleased. Inside it was a bow. It was the one he hadn’t assembled yet. He had planned on giving that bow to Taeksoo after bringing him back.

“Oh! Taeksoo will be able to fight if he has this.”

Although his Divine status getting stolen was part of it, Hugo had been acting very weak within the Divine world.

“I won’t let you do as you please.”

“!”

Athena, who had fallen to the ground after vomiting blood, charged toward Lee Gun like a ghost. She was a pillar god and a fighting-type god for a reason.

With a violent look in her eyes, she swung her sword. She was frighteningly fast. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

‘He can’t use a bow in a close-ranged fight.’

It meant she just had to get rid of the unknown weapon that had pierced through a pillar god’s defense!

Her fierce sword strike hit the sword Yeonwoo held in her hands.

Chang!

“!”

Yeonwoo flinched.

As if she wanted to extract Lee Gun’s Divine status, Athena let out a violent Divine power.

Kwah-jee-jeek!

At that moment, Aphrodite had depleted Lee Gun’s Divine power, so he wasn’t able to use his abilities.

That wasn’t all.

‘He no longer has that bizarre weapon.’

It was her victory!

[Divine Death Strike (5 star)]

“I’ll make you my body slave.” Athena was about to extend her Divine power, but…

Lee Gun made a fist in annoyance.

Poohk!!

“Kuh-huhk?!”

Athena, who had been charging forward with great force, suddenly fell forward.

Pooh-hahk!!

As if she were hunting down an animal, someone had planted a spear in Athena’s back.

“Body slave? You want to die.”

“?!”

It was Yooha. She was really far.

Flustered, Athena glared at her.

‘From that distance?!’

It seemed the blood of the Archer Saint did flow through her. Yooha had thrown the spear from several hundred meters away and had hit a bullseye.

The eyes of Lee Gun and Yeonwoo turned round. At that distance, Yooha was showing an ability beyond humankind.

Soon, Lee Gun looked at the goddess, who was in pain.

“Kuh-huhk!”

After pulling out the spear, he held her up. Then he threw her into the hole that Aphrodite had fallen through.

“Kyahhk!!”

In the end, Athena also fell from the palace of the Great Spirit. She fell below the clouds, and Lee Gun once again threw a weapon toward the falling goddess!

Kwahng!!!

“Kyahhhhk!!”

[You have acquired data.]

[You have recorded a new Achievement.]

Lee Gun laughed when he hit a bullseye.

Yooha arrived next to him, out of breath. “Uncle. You weren’t sullied— No. Are you ok?”

At that moment…

“Uh?”

Yooha saw Yeonwoo when she got close to Lee Gun, and her eyes turned round in surprise. “Uh… Yeonwoo… Unni…”

“No!!! I’m Saint Mask!! I’m not this person called Yeonwoo!”

“????”

Lee Gun clicked his tongue when he saw Yeonwoo desperately deny the truth. However, he soon tilted his head in puzzlement. “Yooha. What about your dad?”

“?!!”

When he mentioned her father, Yooha’s face turned pale. “Oh my god! I left behind Dad!!!”

“W-What?”

“I heard it through the wiretap. Some women were talking about turning Uncle into a body slave! I couldn’t help myself!”

My word! She was going to make her father cry.

* * *

Around that time…

“Ahhhhk!!”

Left by himself, Hugo was screaming. He was dodging and running away from a man swinging a blade.

“Hey, come here!”

“Ahhk! Don’t come near me!”

“Damn it! You’re like a mouse running away!”

An annoyed, expressionless man was chasing him. It was the war god Ares. He had been dispatched early on to guard Hugo’s Divine status, which Hugo’s party had been looking for.

Before Lee Gun’s bomb had gone off, he had entered the palace with Athena and Aphrodite.

Yooha had come here with her father to recover his Divine status, yet she had suddenly disappeared.

“Ahhk! Although I don’t remember her well, you’re supposed to be my daughter! How could you leave behind your father?”

Hugo was like a mouse as he dodged Ares’s sword. In truth, he didn’t remember much about his family, including Yooha.

Regarding Yooha, he remembered snippets of him holding her when she was a baby. He remembered taking her around when she was young.

He realized she treasured Lee Gun enough to abandon her dad, but he was still in disbelief. They had been hiding and avoiding Ares even when his daughter was present.

However, Yooha had become surprised when she had heard something. She told him to wait and disappeared.

Afterward, he had been discovered by Ares’s area of effect skill.

“If I’m being honest, Olympus became a mess because of Pushover!!”

“!”

Ares raised his sword in annoyance. “If it wasn’t for you, the crazy snake god wouldn’t have come here.”

“Damn it! What the hell are you saying? If we’re going to quibble, you should be mad at Hades, who kidnapped me in the first place…!”

“Whatever! I’m annoyed because they dragged me out of my bed!! Just die!”

Damn it! This god had as foul a temper as his friend.

However, Hugo couldn’t fight even if he wanted to. He didn’t have any weapons, and his Divine status was missing. He was a regular human right now.

‘Damn it! This isn’t the time for me to be doing this.’

Hugo remembered the time when he had been imprisoned inside Hades’s palace.

[What? The Creators are alive?]

[Yes! Even the Great Spirits are looking for them.]

At times, a god named Hermes had visited Hades’s palace to meet the master of the underworld.

Hugo had heard a crucial piece of information there. This was why Hugo had sent the strange letter as a paper airplane from within Hades’s palace.

Anyway, he had good reasons to quickly get out of this place, but…

‘Damn it! I’ll die before I can do that!!!’

Hugo screamed as he dodged Ares’s sword. In the end, he had been corralled into a dead end!

Ares let out a dangerous smirk. “You’re a useless clone. I’ll show mercy as a god. I’ll just cut off your legs. It doesn’t matter since you will only live for a week.”

Finally, Ares raised his blade.

Hugo desperately yelled when he had nowhere to run away. “W-Wait!”

“Hmmph. It’s useless to beg for your life…”

“I’m not the Zodiac Saint of the snake god!! I’m the Zodiac Saint of Sagittarius!! Yes, I’m his Construct! I’m a subordinate directly under Sagittarius!”

“What?”

Ares looked shocked. He retracted his blade a bit. “Ah! I’m sorry! Did you just say you are Louis’s Construct?”

Hugo smiled in relief. “Yes! Sagittarius is your friend, right?”

“Wow! You’re the servant of that asshole!”

“Huh?”

“Haha haha! I’ll just kill you right here!!!”

“Ahhhhhk!!!”

Ares summoned a great sword that couldn’t be compared to the one he had before.

Hugo almost let out a string of curses when Ares attacked more fiercely.

“Die, servant of that asshole Sagittarius!!!”

“Ahhh!! Damn you, Sagittarius! How do you usually act around others!!!”

Hugo swung the blade Lee Gun had given to him for temporary use. However, the war god sent him flying as though he were a piece of paper. Hugo had lost in terms of strength.

Kwahng!!

“Koo-oohk!”

This was a celestial world where Zodiacs had gathered. The Zodiacs were like grains of sand in how numerous they were. The gap between a human and a god was huge.

‘Damn it! Unless I recover my Divine status…!’

Poo-hahk!!

“!!!”

A spear flew through the air like a beam of light and pierced through Ares’s arm.

“Koo-ahhk!!”

When Ares screamed, Hugo’s face brightened as he looked up. “Daughter! You are back—”

Hugo’s expression was a sight to behold when he realized who had attacked Ares. For some odd reason, a long-haired woman wearing a mask was there.

“Are you ok?”

Hugo looked taken aback. “Hailey?”

The woman wearing a mask flinched. “I-I’m not Hailey!! I’m Black Scorpion!! You mistook me for someone else!”

“???”

Excuse me?

She was Hailey, no matter how one looked at it! She wasn’t supposed to be here!
