Eternal Change was the most destructive one among the first-generation monarchs. No one had seen his true form, and no one had survived a fight with him.
The only emotions he felt were madness, hunger, and mind-numbingly tedious boredom.
Although no one knew what he looked like, he was very famous. Everyone shook in fear when they heard his name. Moreover, he had made a fool of the entire Divine world, so many around the universe gnashed their teeth at his name.
It showed how powerful he was. If someone said that all life was exterminated wherever he appeared, everyone would accept it as fact.
This was why everyone had been afraid on the day when Eternal Change was executed. His evil soul had been thrown into the Samsara hell. It was an attempt to destroy the soul itself, but a soul of that caliber wouldnât be destroyed so easily.
Everyone had thought he would be revived once again. They assumed he would be revived as an evil monarch. That was what was supposed to happen.
âHey!! Are you boldly declaring right now that youâre going to take my wife and children?!â
âYes, I did.â
The evil monarch⊠No, Pushover had flames coming out of his mouth when he heard Lee Gunâs words.
Hugo knew Lee Gun was crazy, but he never expected Lee Gun to boldly state he would steal someone elseâs wife! âHey! Have you lost your mind? That won't happen until dirt covers my eyes! Insanity!â
In the end, Hugo tried to grab Lee Gun by his collar. âWhat, asshole?â
â!â
Hugo was unable to do that. He froze when he saw Lee Gunâs menacing eyes.
Lee Gun said, âYou made a promise with him. You guys were so close that you made a pinky promise with him. The promise was to eat all the gods and humanity. So what are you saying? Wife? Children?â
âN-no way⊠He didnât say we made a pinky promise...â
âWhat?â Lee Gunâs eyebrows rose menacingly.
Hugo tucked his tail behind his legs, struck dumb by fear. He felt like if he didnât shut up, he would die from Lee Gun decapitating him.
Wind, who had been sent flying when he was hit by Hugo, looked dumbfounded.
[That bastard is taking it too far.]
The power that sent him flying was no joke. Wind seemed to have suffered a good deal of damage. The blow had been so powerful that one wouldnât forgive such transgression even if this was acting.
This was why an angry Wind approached Hugo.
[My brother, I know you are acting right now.]
â!â
[However, you donât have to pretend like you are afraid of the snake god. You are powerful enoughâ Oohp!]
Windâs head was once again blown off by the power sent toward him.
âGun!!! Are you going to let him spout such nonsense?! Kill him! We are enemies! Kill him!â Hugo yelled in desperation. He was afraid of being registered as a monarch in Lee Gunâs eyes. He didnât want to be killed alongside the other monarch!
At this point, Wind became angry.
[This doesn't suit you. How long are youâŠ]
Kwahng!!!
âShut up, bastard!! Iâm going to get killed because of you! Do you realize how much he hates monarchs?! Once he loses his cool, heâll kill all the monarchs!â
Wind was slowly reaching the end of his patience.
[Hey. You shouldnât lose face as a first-generation monarch. I know youâre crafty when it comes to your acting, but you should go easyâŠ]
âIâm not acting!!â
[�]
Windâs expression was a sight to behold.
[You arenât?]
âIâm not! If you keep saying this nonsense, weâll all get cut down by him!!â
Wind was dumbfounded when he saw the fear-stricken expression on Hugoâs face.
At the end of the day, Eternal Change was one of the four sworn siblings. Aside from the two of them, Underground and Haileyâs mother Flame made up the four sworn siblings among the monarchs. The most dependable and strongest one of these siblings was Eternal Change.
When he had heard Eternal Change was going to be executed in the Divine world, Wind had been bummed, but at the end of the day, it wasnât a big deal. Eternal Change would be born again.
It had come from his own mouth. He had asked them to wait. He wouldnât die. They would meet once again and turn the world on its head.
Because of those words, Wind had been waiting for him all these years. Yet what did he just hear? Cut down?
Wind glared at Hugo.
[Do you plan on suddenly breaking our promise like this?]
âWhat?â
[Do you realize what I went through to raise the kids??]
Lee Gun snorted and raised Heavenâs Punishment. âOh really? Promise? He even raised kids for you?â
When Lee Gunâs eyes flashed, Hugo screamed. âThere are none! There are no kids!â
âOh wow. Youâre trying to swindle us by saying you donât have any children?!â
âAhhk!!!!â
Hugo turned pale from fright when Heavenâs Punishment flew toward him. There was nothing false about this.
The power used to defeat Red Eye and the monarchs was swung toward them! The blade of Heavenâs Punishment barely missed as it brushed past him.
Kwahng!
When Lee Gun stepped on him, Hugo felt like he really was going to die. He yelled, âGun! Iâm innocent. I have nothing to do with him!!â
âAlright. I have nothing to do with you either.â
âAhhhk!! If you donât believe me, Iâll get rid of him!â
Lee Gun was about to bring down Heavenâs Punishment, but he hesitated. Hugo had indeed reacted in the right way when he had said heâd steal his wife and children.
Was Lee Gun finally able to trust him as a friend?
âAlright. Get rid of him right now.â
Hugo let out a sigh of relief as if he had been given a lifeline.
Kahng!!!
â!!â
At that moment, a fierce wind flew toward the back of Hugoâs head.
Hugo used a similar power to cancel out the wind, but he froze when he saw the expression on Windâs face.
[It is understandable.]
ââŠ!â
Until a moment ago, Wind looked like he was happy to see his sibling. His expression was completely different now.
There was betrayal mixed in his expression. Wind was trying to push down the surging anger that he felt.
He had raised the second-generation monarchs.
As expected of the first-generation monarch who had raised Time, the pressure he gave off was extraordinary.
Hugo felt that if he said one wrong word, the air would cut off his head.
Wind laughed.
[Itâs obvious. You are doing this because that god is a Creator.]
âWhat?â
Lee Gun raised his eyebrows as if he was wondering what nonsense Wind was talking about.
âHey. This bastard is mine. Iâll make him a slave of humanity. I want no funny business from you.â
It caused Wind to let out an evil laugh.
[Funny business? Whatâs wrong, brother? It was the same last time. You went to the Creators because you wanted something from them.]
ââŠ!â
Hugo flinched since it was a topic that had been in his memories.
[Others worked to draw out the Primordial God, the king of the gods. You approached the Creators, who were the only gods working directly under the Primordial god. You did it because you needed something from them. When you failed to achieve your goal, you killed all of them.]
âWhat? Hey!!â
[Oh, brother. You looked awesome when you killed all the Creators. There wasnât a single ounce of hesitation! Your cruelty was great!]
âHey! Shut the hell up!!â
Wind didnât seem to care. He let out a cold smile since he needed the power of Eternal Change; it was all for the revival of the Cluders.
When you're just trying to make great content at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
Wind let out a cold smile. Eternal Change was a first-generation monarch who had been able to wreck the Divine world alone. There was no way Wind would let him get away.
[Well, those Creators are all dead now, so you canât get what you want. However, that changes if there is a survivor.]
Wind looked at Lee Gun.
[You may have reincarnated as a human, but you chose that Creator. Itâs the instinct from the time when you were Eternal Change.]
â!â
Hugo had become a Construct directly under a Creator and chosen a Secretary as his wife. It all had to do with his instinct as Eternal Change.
[Moreover, you have recovered your memories, and you remembered what you wanted. That is why you are pretending to be a human.]
Hugo was afraid as he felt death, so he became desperate. âNo, Gun. That isnât it at all. I canât act, and I didnât recover my memories.â
[Do you really think you would have the power to send me flying without your memories?]
âThat isnât itâŠ..â
[Moreover, you played around by pretending to be a god. You said faith is nothing in front of your acting. Didnât you pretend to have 1,000% Faith toward the Primordial god? You fooled him for your amusement.]
âHey. Why donât you just shut up?! Go raise your kids or something! Anyway, Iâm a real human, GunâŠâ
Lee Gunâs expression was a sight to behold as he looked at Hugo. âAh. You can falsify Faith.â
ââŠWhat? Thatâs notâŠ.â
âAh. I see. You are a swindler.â
There was an odd sense of disdain coming from Lee Gun, which made Hugo aggrieved.
âNo! That is all in the past!â
âYou didnât say it was a lie.â
â?!!â
Hugo turned pale when the power of Cycle emanated from Lee Gun. âWait a moment! Listen toâŠ.â
The pure white power headed toward Hugo, and Hugo clenched his eyes shut.
Kwahng!!
However, the power of Cycle detonated against the power of Wind. The enormous power encircled Wind.
Wind laughed in an airy manner.
[It might be the power of the Primordial god, but do you think itâll work on everyone?]
The monarchâs eyes flashed.
[Moreover, that power isnât at hundred percent!]
The fierce power of Wind distorted the power of Cycle. There was a reason Wind was a first-generation monarch capable of raising numerous monarchs. He was capable of humiliating the king of the gods and making the elder gods shake in fear.
[You killed Time, whom I treasured a lot. Thatâs why Iâm not too fond of this land. I might catch flack for it, but Iâll destroy everything.]
Lee Gun furrowed his brows, intending to use Deathâs Instinct. It was something he didnât want to use since it could cause duress on the earth.
Bbah-gahk!!
[Kuh-huhk!!]
However, Hugo kicked Wind as if he wanted Wind gone.
It seemed Wind felt faint after being kicked by Hugo. Surprisingly, Hugo had kicked Wind with a black foot. His foot had changed into something that wasnât human.
After being kicked by Hugo, Wind disappeared into a gale.
âIt isnât even his real body!â After landing safely, Hugo approached Lee Gun. âGun! You saw it, right!â
He was making an appeal. There was no way he was on the other side.
On the other hand, Lee Gunâs expression was a sight to behold. âWow! Look at you sending away your sibling because you were worried I would kill him.â
Hugo screamed as if he felt aggrieved.
* * *
âGun! Trust me! I canât live without Jiwoo!â After returning home, Hugo clung to Lee Gunâs leg.
Their family was gathered there, and they looked at both of them oddly.
âLee Gun-nim⊠You donât lookâŠso good.â
âDid Uncle and Dad fight??â
Hugo flinched when his wife and children asked the question. âWe didnât fightâŠ.â
Hugo recalled the words Lee Gun had spoken as they headed back home.
- It doesnât matter if I believe or not. I canât let the father of a newborn baby be sent to the other side.
- ThenâŠ!
- Iâll keep it a secret. However, Iâll immediately kill you if you eat a god or a human.
- âŠ!
- If your instinct comes out, you wonât be able to stay next to Miss Jiwoo and the kids.
- I understand. Since you believed me, Iâll help youâŠ
- I donât need it, you swindler. You can stop being my Construct.
- ?!
It seemed Lee Gun didnât like the idea of Eternal Change having a hidden motive. At the end of the day, a monarch was a monarch.
This was especially true since Eternal Change had tricked the gods and eaten them. He stayed next to the Creators for ulterior motives and killed them.
What if Hugo was staying next to him for similar reasons? It was an unpleasant thought since it meant Hugo wasnât genuine in trying to stay with him.
It felt like he was being used by Hugo.
When Lee Gun started going upstairs, Yooha called out in surprise. âUncle? You are going up without eating?â
âYes. A guest will be here soon.â
The lowest floor of the Lee Gun tower, which was previously the holy ground of the Sagittarius temple, belonged to Hugo and his family. Lee Gun used the upper floors.
âAnyway, no one is allowed upstairs today. I have an important guess coming.â
âImportant guestâŠ?â
âDonât worry! Itâll go after eating dinner.â
Hugo froze at those words. Of course, he knew the guest was Abyss.
Lee Gun was telling them not to come because there was a danger of a fight breaking out.
âGun! You got it wrong! Your guest intends toâŠ!â Hugo desperately tried to tell him the truth, but he was kicked by Lee Gun.
âI told you to not speak to me.â
âKuhkâŠ.â
Hugo massaged his forehead after he fell to the ground.
âItâs Abyss.â
As someone from the same race, Hugo had felt that Abyss was female, but he wasnât sure about itâŠ
âHer eating him could be a joke.â
Hugo shook his head as if this was no longer his problem. If he went up to stop Lee Gun, Lee Gun would beat him up.
âThere is no way something will happen, right?â
Two hours passed from that point.
âWhat the hell is this situation?â
Lee Gun was alone, letting out a cold sweat. It was a room that no one had business entering.
Moreover, he had placed all kinds of defensive mechanisms and a soundproof system just in case a battle broke out within the building.
He had come to take a nap, yet someone had visited him in the dark room.
[I see. You are here.]
Lee Gun was taken aback by the naked beautiful woman who had climbed atop him. Moreover, he had never seen her before. He was about to ask who she was whenâŠ
[As promised, I am here to eat you.]
Abyss let out a bright smile as she firmly held down Lee Gunâs arms.
[Why are you making such an expression? I had said Iâd spruce myself and come eat you. You gave consent.]
�
�??
Lee Gunâs pupils shook when he realized who this woman was. ââŠâŠ????!!!â
That was what it meant? No, that wasnât important. This bastard was female?
