The Chun siblings’ eyes turned round. Both of them were shocked, of course for different reasons.

“Our house? You visited that place first?”

“You’ve been there, Uncle?”

Lee Gun answered the two different questions. “Yes! That was the first place I slept at after coming out of the tower.”

Chun Yooha discreetly looked at her dongsaeng. She was asking him why he hadn’t told her about this. In fact, she was emanating magical energy. 

Chun Sungjae could sense an odd(?) sense of anger in her gaze. He felt aggrieved. “I didn’t know he was Uncle at the time!” In fact, his uncle had pulled out the head of his figurine!

“I didn’t stay there long. I slept for a day,” Lee Gun added.

‘One night, two days!’ Chun Yooha looked at her dongsaeng with an angry expression. In the end, she made bubbles in her drink with her straw, lamenting at the loss of the opportunity. Anyway, that wasn’t important right now.

“Why do you want to go there?”

“I think the crazy bitch is at that house.”

The brother and sister became flabbergasted; Chun Sungjae was especially taken aback. His noona had a living place provided by her temple. So, she treated their house like her workroom. It was different for Chun Sungjae. He ate and slept there daily; he went to school from there. So why was the Gemini Saint there?

“That makes no sense. Why would she be at my house?” he asked.

“I don’t know. We’ll have to ask the question to the culprit,” Lee Gun replied.

“Culprit?”

Lee Gun quickly took out a pendant, surprising Chun Sungjae.

“Ah! That is!”

It was the item Lee Gun had won in the auction by backstabbing General Choi. Chun Sungjae clearly remembered it. ‘All the generals turned their noses up on that item.’

The item was assessed to be a D-rank item. So, the generals had been lukewarm in their reactions, compared to how it was with the bone.

“Everyone was questioning why they were auctioning such an item…”

Lee Gun snorted at those words. “That’s why all of them are useless.” He took out the storage box that he had brought from Cheongwadae and continued, “That is why the government put the S-rank item in storage.”

“What? S rank? Which one….”

The Chun siblings became surprised by the item Lee Gun took out.

“That comic book is S rank?”

“What is it….”

Lee Gun laughed as he placed the pendant on top of the comic book. Then, something amazing happened.

Flash!

The old comic book changed into a different book.

[Book That Holds Everything] S rank

- It looks like a cooking book, but it is a small bag.

- Once an item is put within the page, the item’s ingredients will be listed in words.

- The book has a total of 100 pages.

Chun Sungjae screamed when he saw the book. “Ah! I know this! There is a picture of Uncle with this item in a textbook! People made a big deal about it saying uncle was reading a weird cookbook!” Sungjae had gotten to see this legendary item for real. He turned toward his uncle.

Lee Gun explained, “The pendant is a concealment holy item. This book is like an inventory. It’s used to store all types of ingredients and weapons.”

“?!” Chun Sungjae had thought the book was filled with recipes and ingredients. However, it was filled with information about items. It was a bag-type inventory item, making it a very valuable item. All the generals wanted to get their hands on this item. However, that wasn’t important right now.

I have to go ask the culprit… What did that have to do with this inventory?

Lee Gun laughed as he took out a glass box the size of a ring box.

[Sheep Saint’s Sturdy Display Case]

- It can store anything precious. Any items put within it cannot escape for the most part.

The content of the box surprised both siblings, especially Chun Sungjae. It was to be expected.

[The soul is screaming]

[The Fairy King is begging for mercy]

[The Fairy King is emanating powerful energy]

“Uncle, this is …!”

Yes, inside the box was the soul captured within Cheongwadae. It was the Gemini Saint’s summoned soul.

The fairy cried and screamed when it exchanged glances with Lee Gun. Then, it tried to run away as if it had lost its mind. This surprised Chun Sungjae even more. ‘It’s a Lord rank soul…!’

That was right. This soul was the Fairy King Raeriqueen. It was the ultimate soul the Gemini Saint possessed. Souls were divided into slave rank, normal rank, knight rank, high rank, and lord rank. The Lord rank was the highest rank.

The Fairy King had the destructive capability to instantly wipe out several countries. It had been nicknamed the Queen of Destruction.

‘The Fairy King is… It cried and made a fuss when it saw Uncle?

Lee Gun didn’t pay attention to the soul’s histrionics as he laughed. “The Fairy King’s magic is quite useful. With it, I can face off against other Zodiacs Saints with special abilities.” Some of the Zodiac Saints were hard to deal with using only his fists. 

Of course, the Fairy King wasn’t fully whole yet.

[Fairy King Raeriqueen] Soul 70%

(The summoner has used a rental skill to split the soul.)

‘The remaining thirty percent is probably with the Gemini Saint.’

The Gemini Saint had left seventy percent of the Fairy King with the substitute before leaving. This move had resulted in an unfavorable consequence for her. 

‘I’ll just find the other thirty percent, then I can make use of it.’ Lee Gun grinned as he opened the book. Something amazing happened.

[The Fairy King will be stored on page 15.]

[The Devil(Librarian)-type magic contained within the book has been used.]

[The Fairy King and the display case have been changed into letters within the book.]

Flash!

The Fairy King screamed as it was trapped inside the book. Until a moment ago, the trapped Fairy King had been close to breaking the Sheep Saint’s holy item. Now, however, the book didn’t budge at all.

This was why the two siblings were stunned. Even if it had been split, that was the Fairy King’s soul.

“That’s amazing. Who made that item?”

“Who else could have made it, Noona? Probably the Manufacturer Saint! An item of this caliber was made with the heart and soul of the Manufacturer Saint!”

Lee Gun scoffed. “What? I made it.”

The siblings were surprised.

“What? You made this?” Chun Sungjae was close to fainting. 

Chun Yooha’s eyes twinkled as if she found this fascinating. ‘Uncle is like a god.’

The gods could create holy items. For some reason, a vast difference lay between items made by the gods and the Manufacturers.

Chun Sungjae looked down at his phone, which kept buzzing. It was his dad. Was it because his daughter had turned off her phone? In the end, Hugo had started sending text bombs. 

Chun Sungjae finally answered, yelling into his phone, “Jeez! Noona and Uncle eloped to a different country! Don’t call me!”

Click!

Chun Sungjae ruthlessly blocked his number. He then looked at Lee Gun. “Anyway, I’ll take you to our house. You said the Gemini Saint is there, right?”

Chun Yooha immediately stopped them. “Wait a moment! The Gemini Saint might have set up a trap. We have to scope out our house. Her disciples might try to ambush you”

Chun Sungjae realized his mistake when he heard the word ambush. “That’s right! If we walk into a disarmament skill, we’ll be screwed. At the very least, we might need Uncle’s weapon!”

“Uncle’s weapon? Are you talking about Heaven’s Punishment?”

 was the weapon that symbolized Lee Gun. If the weapon had been left behind in the Devil’s tower with Lee Gun and the corpses, that would have been fine. However, the weapon had come out of the tower. The Zodiac Saints had been barely able to recover Lee Gun’s weapon. However, the item had disappeared afterward like a mirage.

‘It’s one of the items that all the temples are looking for with desperation!’

In truth, the conquest of the monsters hinged on the idea that these temples could find the weapon.

“Should we prepare clothes that’d resist the disarmament spell? If we order them now, the delivery will take a couple of months. However, I can ask the Appraiser for a favor, and it might take a week… If Uncle asks, it might take three days…”

“No! We have to go meet the Gemini Saint right now,” Lee Gun firmly said. He had to take away the Soul Directory, then he would have to bring the Gemini Saint’s Constructs to his side. Therefore, he made a call. 

The person on the other end immediately picked up.

“Hey, Taeksoo…” Lee Gun could hear angry cuss words through the phone. It almost sounded like an alien language. In the end, he frowned as he moved the phone away from his ears. “Yes, yes. I’m in Korea. You are so naive. I can’t believe you fell for that. Do you want to die?”

After Lee Gun said that, Hugo’s alien-sounding words turned into the growls of a beast. At the very least, it would be great if he sounded like a mammal.

‘Why did my image fall so much?’ Lee Gun wasn’t bad enough to mess with the daughter of his friend. “Anyway, I have a task for you.”

Finally, Hugo calmed down enough to sound like a primitive man. He earnestly listened.

The world was changing. It was the start of turbulent times.
