Lee Gun let out an evil smirk as he killed a young Time. Of course, he had no idea if killing 18,732 Times was the right strategy.

At the very least, if he killed them all, they wouldn’t piss him off anymore by rushing him with great numbers. Therefore, Lee Gun laughed as if he was having fun.

‘I’ll put this body to excellent use.’

At that moment, was it because he had killed a young Time?

[Who the hell are you!]

Lee Gun snorted when Space-Time raged. “I’m me.”

The words left the monarch dumbfounded. He menacingly approached Lee Gun.

[I don’t care who you are. Die!]

“Hmmph. Catch me if you can, idiot!” Lee Gun immediately used his skill.

[Time Travel]

Since he still remembered the sensation of using it earlier, he didn’t have much trouble activating it. Of course, he wasn’t used to the ability, so he couldn’t set the target…

‘However, I just have to go to the general location where I can feel the other Times are located, right?’

He didn’t know how, but he could feel the countless versions of Time scattered everywhere. This was possible because he was inside Time’s body. Moreover, Lee Gun had the intuition of a hunter, which he had developed through amassing experience.

‘Anyway, I remember the energy of the one I killed before.’

If he killed the young Time, it would be easy to kill Time. Moreover, wouldn’t it erase Time from that timeline?

It was as he had expected.

As soon as Lee Gun crossed to another timeline, he ran somewhere as if he were a madman. This time, he had been dropped in a desolate land!

Lee Gun instantly disappeared and reappeared where the young Time was located! The young Time didn’t even have time to realize Lee Gun’s presence.

‘Two!’

Poo-hahk!!!

Lee Gun ruthlessly decapitated Time. Then, he immediately used Time Travel!

“Three!”

“Four!”

“Ten!”

“Hundred!”

Lee Gun kept picking only the young Times as he kept decapitating them over and over again.

“Ha ha ha! Someone so young fooled around a lot when he was young!”

Time tried to lure and eat a human, but Lee Gun slaughtered the monarch. Occasionally, Lee Gun ran across a bit more mature versions of Time, who tried to kill him. However, it didn’t matter.

Poo-hahk!!!

Lee Gun had felt it clearly.

‘Time’s power gets weaker the more I kill them.’

He knew it for sure now that he was inside Time’s body.

‘The Time that showed up in front of me was his final form.’

That meant the body Lee Gun had entered was Time’s final form. In other words, this was the body that had returned to the past tens of thousands of times, the body with the highest accumulated EXP and stats.

Moreover, it seemed Time was connected to its versions in other timelines. Therefore, the power of Time slowly weakened as Lee Gun killed more of its versions from other timelines.

‘Well, one has to exist in the past to exist in the present.’

The more Lee Gun killed Time’s past existences, the more of its accumulated power disappeared. That was the theory.

However, Time’s power weakening wasn’t harmful to Lee Gun.

Poo-hahk!!!

[You have killed 3,889 Times.]

[You have amassed EXP.]

[The stats of the Serpent Bearer temple have increased.]

Time’s power was weakening, but Life’s EXP was rising at a rapid pace. It was possible because Lee Gun’s soul was that of the Serpent Bearer. Despite Time’s power weakening, he had no trouble killing the other Times.

‘He’s merely a monster!’

Moreover, it wasn’t as if he would be unable to use the ability to cross timelines if he killed them.

Lee Gun laughed as if he was excited. “Ha ha ha ha! It is fun killing him!”

[You have killed 4,000 Times.]

[You have amassed EXP.]

Of course, he didn’t put the EXP toward the Serpent Bearer temple despite amassing it. That was the path to self-destruction.

‘If I send it to the Serpent Bearer temple right now, he will get stronger.’

Time was occupying his body. Therefore, Lee Gun stored all the EXP within Time’s body, which he was possessing right now.

In the beginning, he had wondered if that was possible, but Time’s body was made using the original owner of the Serpent Bearer temple.

The body seemed to be recognized as the Serpent Bearer, so it became possible to store the EXP within it.

‘I’ll take the EXP when I go back to my own body.’

At that moment…

[Zodiac Lee Gun is trying to kill his affiliate Zodiac Saints.]

[Zodiac Lee Gun is showing clear hostility toward the disciples.]

‘!’

Lee Gun’s eyes turned violent when he heard the notification. Time, who possessed his body, was trying to kill his disciples.

‘He’s trying to pull off this nonsense to raise the level of Life.’

Lee Gun had thought killing Time would harm the Time within his body.

‘I guess it isn’t enough?’

Of course, it would be troublesome if Time realized what was going on, so this was preferable for Lee Gun. This was also why he thought about accepting the request from the other temples to become his affiliates.

All the twelve Zodiac temples had sent a request wanting to become affiliates under the Serpent Bearer temple.

‘If twelve Saint ranks put their minds to it, they would be able to deplete the magical energy of the Serpent Bearer temple.’

His niece and nephew were smart, so they would quickly come up with that idea.

[Zodiac Lee Gun is interfering with the Affiliate request]

‘Really?’

Time seemed worried about that scenario too, so he was interfering with the Affiliate request.

[Zodiac Lee Gun is using Compulsory Order to threaten the disciples.]

Time seemed to be capable of using his body without a problem. So Lee Gun furrowed his brows.

‘Is there anything I can do?'

At that moment…

[Bastard! You are here!]

“!!”

Lee Gun arrived at a different timeline and reared back in shock. It was to be expected since Space-Time had caught sight of him. Space-Time charged toward Lee Gun.

‘Shit. Did I mistakenly come to a timeline that I’ve already visited?’

Lee Gun gnashed his teeth. He was about to jump to a different timeline in a hurry.

Kwahng!!!

“!”

However, a fire arrow surprised him. The fierce arrow blew apart the Space-Time monarch.

Lee Gun furrowed his brows as he looked at the destroyed Space-Time

‘Clone?’

This was a clone with 1/100th of the power of the monarch’s real body. From the energy he could feel from it, Lee Gun could clearly sense the power of the Cancer temple.

‘Is it a monster made by the Crab bastard?’

At that moment…

A familiar person who had destroyed Space-Time appeared in front of Lee Gun. “Damn it! I’m in a hurry. What the hell is this?”

Lee Gun became surprised when he heard the grumbling voice.

“I have to quickly buy the hair growth solution for Teacher. I have to take it back to him!”

‘Taeksoo!’

That’s right. The one to appear before him was the young. From the looks of it, it was Hugo from twenty years ago!

Hugo was oblivious as he was talking to someone on the phone. “Ah! Yes. Hello? Teacher, I’m sorry. I was on my way to buy a hair loss solution when Jean-Louis interfered… What?! If I can’t steal it, I’ll have to run back to Korea?! You do know that I’m in China, right?!”

By how he acted, this was the period when Hugo was a student under him. That meant…

‘I’m on the timeline where I exist.’

Lee Gun started to sweat. If he moved recklessly, his future might change. It was a dangerous timeline to be on. But then…

“Hey, you! You’re the Cancer Saint, right? Teacher said I have to forage for prey!”

“!”

It was unclear as to what kind of order Lee Gun’s past self had given to Hugo, but Hugo attacked him.

Since Lee Gun was worried about changing the future, he was about to ignore Hugo and turn around.

“Whatever. You’ll become a nutrient for Teacher’s hair!”

Those words pissed off Lee GUn. He ran toward Hugo. “You dare try to make me into a nutritional supplement!!”

Lee Gun sent Hugo flying with a kick. “You wanna die.”

He thought Hugo would shut up after taking a kick, but Hugo unexpectedly grabbed Lee Gun’s foot. “Hey! Who the hell are you? Why do you move the same way as my teacher? Did you do something to my teacher?”

Lee Gun realized his mistake. He had forgotten about it because he had bickered with Hugo over the years. However, this was the era where Hugo had been a fanboy!

Lee Gun was annoyed, so he kicked Hugo. He wanted to make Hugo unconscious.

‘Wait a moment. Taeksoo wasn’t an affiliate under the Serpent Bearer temple during this period.’

That wasn’t all.

‘Taeksoo from this period might be useful for a different reason.’

In this period, Lee Gun had taught Hugo directly, so he knew Hugo’s skills at this period better than anyone. So, he said, “Hey.”

“What!”

“You’ll have to help your teacher for a short time.”

“W-What?”

Lee Gun activated and used the Time Travel skill on Hugo. He didn’t know Time’s location, but that didn’t matter to him.

‘I just have to send him to the strongest Time!’

Time, who had entered Lee Gun’s body, had returned to the past 18,732 times. It was the final form with the most power amassed.

Lee Gun could feel the countless Times, and he sent Hugo to the one with the strongest energy.

An explanation would be a luxury to Hugo. Moreover, Lee Gun had something more important to do! He had to kill Times!

Lee Gun kept crossing timelines as he killed Time again and again.

[You have killed 17,889 Times.]

[You have amassed EXP.]

[You have killed 17,890 Times.]

[You have killed 17,931 Times.]

[You have killed 17,999 Times.]

Poo-oohk!!!

[You have killed 18,000 Times.]

[You have amassed EXP. You can evolve Life now.]

“Ha ha ha. I bet this will start to hurt!”

* * *

Around the same time…

Kahng!!

Time shook as the sound of something being severed rang out. The next instant, the strength drained out of him.

Time’s senses had been dulled after entering Lee Gun’s body, and he finally realized what was going on.

‘That bastard.’

Time had no idea how many of his different selves Lee Gun had eliminated, but Lee Gun had killed enough to affect him, the final form of Time. That wasn’t all.

‘That bastard is sending EXP to Death.’

Lee Gun was purposefully growing Death so that Time couldn’t control that power. This was why Time quickly tried to signal his other selves in the other timelines. He was about to tell the others to stop Lee Gun before they all died.

Poo-hahk!!

At that moment, the sound of blood splattering rang behind him, then the sound of something rolling across the ground echoed.

The thing that rolled next to Time’s feet was none other than another Time’s head.

“That’s 18,732.”

“…!!!!”

All the disciples were surprised to see who had shown up behind them. Time was the same.

Lee Gun stood there, drenched in the blood of 18,732 Times, licking his lips.

“I guess you’re the only one left?” Lee Gun’s eyes flashed as he pointed the blade at his own throat.
