Chapter 308: I presume you prepared for the wedding expenses? 3

[That is a spear that can even kill the phoenix!]

That was aiming for Ju-Heon, his team, and their artifacts .

Ju-Heon laughed and responded after looking at the spear .

“Yes, that’s the kind of thing you should bring as dowry!”

[?!]

“All I got until now was some stupid photo . ”

Mammon’s jaw dropped in shock .

‘What does he mean a stupid photo?! This punk! Is he talking about the idol photo artifact I left for him?!’

Mammon became angry .

[You bastard! Are you calling the artifact I left you a stupid photo?!]

“Ah, you were the culprit behind that?”

[Yes! Do you know how hard I worked err…didn’t work to get it, but still!]

Ju-Heon nonchalantly chuckled .

“Well, it doesn’t matter what it is as long as it is a Divine-Grade artifact, but cool things like this are so much better . ”

Mammon grabbed the back of her neck in anger .

‘Cool?!’

Well, humans might think that this spear was cool . This spear artifact was something that could strike a designated target anywhere in the world .

The accuracy was one thing, but it was a dangerous weapon that only aimed for the target’s vital points . It was so strong that it had been quite important in the war of the gods as well .

This damn spear had massacred so many artifacts and humans in the past .

Mammon, as someone who knew this spear’s history, urgently shouted to Ju-Heon .

[That spear can kill everybody here!]

They could clearly make out the weapon in the Los Angeles sky . It looked like a homing missile .

This thing had crossed through the sky to come 4,000km from New York to LA .

It started from the east coast where Pandora’s HQ was located and came all the way here to LA on the West Cost . It only took a few minutes to get across a large distance that would take a driver a couple days of nonstop driving to travel .

This thing was accurately aiming for Ju-Heon and the others’ lives . It was even aiming for their artifacts as well!

Seol-A started to worry as that weapon came closer .

‘I knew it was a dangerous artifact when I detected it, but…’

It looked even stronger now that she could see it .

“Captain-nim! It’s dangerous! This is no ordinary Divine-Grade artifact!”

Ju-Heon started to smile .

‘Oh, it definitely isn’t an ordinary Divine-Grade artifact . This seems to be one of the strongest Divine-Grade artifacts . ’

It must belong to a major god in order to have such power .

A weapon focused on killing with the power of lightning… A weapon that is capable of even killing a phoenix……

‘Is it the weapon from the Indian Mahabharata……?’

Ju-Heon soon figured it out .

‘No . ’

This was Odin’s spear Gungnir! Mammon started to shout .

[That bastard Prometheus must have tamed similar artifacts since he can’t use Zeus’s spear!]

They used Un-known to…

Imprison all of the major gods and act as the leader of the artifacts .

And this was a spear that was said to be indestructible and known for chasing its target until the bitter end .

Similar to how Zeus, the greatest of the Greek gods was represented by his lightning bolt, Odin was also tied to a formidable lightning bolt .

Lightning bolts were the most threatening and fearsome natural phenomenons for ancient humans .

That was the reason lightning bolts were tied to the strongest beings in mythologies .

That raging spear of lightning was flying toward Ju-Heon .

[The spear of lightning will arrive in 1 minute 20 seconds . ]

[The spear of lightning will arrive in 1 minute 19 seconds . ]

But Ju-Heon wasn’t scared at all . In fact, he twisted around to stretch .

Mammon freaked out in response .

[Human, are you thinking about using the Crow to do something?!]

Ju-Heon responded like this .

“It’s not respectful to reject a present . ”

Mammon wanted to jump up and down in frustration . Even if they were bitter enemies, Mammon was well aware of the Crow’s powers .

However…

[You can’t eat that with the current Crow! You won’t be suffering from just a stomach ache if you eat that!]

Mammon then added on .

[I’ll try to drag that away……so you!]

Ju-Heon cut her off and started to laugh . It was because he knew what she was planning .

“Enough . You’re probably going to try to sacrifice yourself to destroy it, but I won’t let my artifacts die like that . ”

[!]

Mammon seemed truly touched . But Julian was sneering internally .

‘He thinks that only he should be pestering his own artifacts . ’

Mammon responded to him .

[But you really can’t eat that with the current Crow . ]

“It doesn’t matter . I don’t plan on using the Crow bastard . ”

[!]

Even the Crow seemed shocked this time .

Julian, who seemed to have realized Ju-Heon’s plan, helped him out .

“Fine . You can use this too if you’re going to do that . ”

Julian had thrown him an unexpected item .

Julian had thrown him a small bottle .

Ju-Heon’s eyes opened wide after he caught it . He seemed to be asking why Julian had that .

“This is?”

“Just call it insurance . What it does is……”

“No, I can tell what it does even without you saying anything . ”

That was to be expected .

[Phoenix feather]

The item inside the glass bottle was a portion of Jaeha’s Heirloom .

It was probably just an artifact that would allow him to film a zombie movie or something . A message popped up to explain the artifact .

[Completely invincible for 10 seconds (1/1)]

It was quite the useful artifact . The only thing that seemed odd was……

[The feather plucked from the crying phoenix (SS-Grade:Divine-Grade – Consumable Artifact)]

‘Plucked while it was crying?’

Ju-Heon looked at Julian and clicked his tongue .

“Wow, you truly are the Monarch of Pillage . You even stole the feathers of a bird? That bird isn’t completely naked now is it? Did you pluck all of its feathers before frying it for dinner?”

Julian started to foam at the mouth .

“Am I you?!”

Ju-Heon just pretended to cry .

“Wow, poor little phoenix . ”

“Damn it, it wasn’t like that! Jaeha plucked it because he didn’t want any of his team members to die again!”

“Yes yes . I’ll put this feather you pillaged to good use . ”

“Ow!”

It was at that moment .

“Captain-nim!”

Seol-A urgently shouted and Ju-Heon took something out of his pocket .

And then!

Boom!

An extremely strong power descended on Ju-Heon .

The crackling spear was frantically moving forward to pierce Ju-Heon’s heart .

That strong force pierced through Ju-Heon’s chest .

Puuk!

“Captain-nim!”

Even looking at it felt painful . However, the spear was unable to reach his heart .

It was because of the item Ju-Heon had wrapped around his hand .

[!]

It was the rope!

[The rope that can even bind the gods has activated its powers . ]

[It is offsetting the god’s power . ]

[It is offsetting the god’s power . ]

[It is offsetting the god’s power . ]

Ju-Heon’s plan was to use the rope to stop Gungnir!

The rope that had upgraded to become an S-Grade artifact was a rope that never breaks . It even had the power to bind gods!

Of course, it could have been difficult to completely stop the spear since it was not a SS-Grade artifact .

The spear that was bound by the rope still managed to pierce through Ju-Heon’s chest .

Drip, drip .

It wasn’t just the physical pain of it pushing into his chest . This scary spear of lightning burned everything it touched .

It should have been as painful as burning your skin with an iron!

Ju-Heon’s chest caught on fire every time the spear burned his skin .

It was the power of the phoenix feather .

His skin would get burnt before the phoenix’s power would restore it .

He might have died from burns if he didn’t have the phoenix feather .

However, although he was free from the dangers of being burnt by the spear, he could not stop the physical force of the spear .

“Ugh . ”

The rope that had been groaning pushed even harder after seeing Ju-Heon in pain .

[#$&!]

The spear that was stabbing into Ju-Heon seemed to become a bit subdued .

Ju-Heon’s eyes flashed .

‘Submit!’

Ju-Heon channeled his strong Dominance into Gungnir .

It was the power of removing an artifact’s power he stole from Hitler!

It was to weaken the spear .

Boom!

Of course, it would not easily submit as it was the artifact of a major god .

[#$&#!]

In fact, it tried to kill Ju-Heon even more .

In this battle between an artifact’s aura and a human’s Dominance that were trying to kill each other…

The two powers clashed and shot up into the air .

The lightning that had gotten even stronger than before burned Ju-Heon’s entire body .

Baaaaang!

It was an intense battle .

Gungnir’s power was hard to suppress even with his power removal and Dominance at the level of the Four Emperors .

“Hurry! You have to make it submit within ten seconds!”

Julian was sweating bullets as he said that .

Forget ten seconds, it looked as if this battle of will might go on for ten hours .

But at that time…

‘!’

There was a loud noise and Ju-Heon was smiling .

He had surprisingly succeeded in completely binding Gungnir .

[#$&$!]

Gungnir was flailing in pain while being tied up by the rope . It looked like a wild animal that had been caught .

It was difficult to completely subdue as it was an artifact of the highest-grade .

But the rest of the team gasped .

“H, he really grabbed it . ”

They were looking at their captain as if he was some kind of monster .

However…

“You didn’t completely subdue that yet, right?”

He would probably need to constantly channel his Dominance into it for a whole year to make it submit with Dominance alone .

“Are you going to keep on making it submit?”

“No . ”

“What? Then……”

Ju-Heon smiled viciously .

“Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth!”

Boom!

There was a loud explosion as if someone had shot a cannon .

“!”

Ju-Heon had flung that ferocious back . Gungnir could only return to its starting point as if it had received a counter .

[$#$&#!]

Baaaaang!

Gungnir traveled back all 4,000km to New York .

And then…

“We detected a heinous aura above Pandora’s HQ!”

“!”

Prometheus smiled after hearing that report .

Gungnir was like a boomerang; it would return to its master once it got rid of its target .

“Good . It should be back after taking care of th……”

It was at that moment .

[Supreme Leader-nim! It’s dangerous!]

The eagle who realized something urgently shouted . It was at that moment .

Puuk!

“Ugh!”

Gungnir dug into Prometheus’s heart .

It flew in with extreme force .

Gungnir stabbed into the artifact’s core, Prometheus’s vital point .

“……U, ugh!”

[Supreme Leader-nim!]

The core that was stabbed was extremely vital for artifacts .

Prometheus felt intense pain . Gungnir was eaten by a wolf named Fenrir but it was still a weapon that was used in the battle between gods .

It had the power to destroy Divine-Grade artifacts .

Prometheus spurt out black blood from his mouth .

That wasn’t all .

Something twitched on Gungnir’s shaft .

‘!’

That was the rope that was hanging on Gungnir’s handle! Prometheus was confused .

‘Why is this thing here?!’

However, the rope just flashed its ‘eyes’ and dropped something on the ground .

The item it dropped was the Code of Hammurabi!

The Code of Hammurabi had accumulated some of Gungnir’s destructive force earlier .

Prometheus swore the moment it flashed .

“Seo Ju-Heon, you, son of a……!”

The Code of Hammurabi then exploded .

Boom!

An extremely strong explosion swept through the Pandora HQ boardroom .

On the other side of the United States, Ju-Heon, who had suppressed Gungnir in exactly 8 seconds, was shaking his tingling hand .

He looked like a pitcher who had thrown a 100 mph fastball .

Ju-Heon started to smile . Mammon’s jaw was dropped in shock .

[H, he sent that thing back?]

Mammon couldn’t believe this side of Ju-Heon she had never seen in his past life .

It wasn’t that Ju-Heon was weak back then, but he seemed extremely strong right now .

Ju-Heon started to speak .

“Bring things like that as wedding presents from here on . Do you understand?”

Mammon could only chuckle in disbelief .

Julian, who was sighing in relief, asked him a question .

“That was not like you at all . You just returned the spear to him? Will that be okay?”

“Who said I returned it?”

“What?”

It was at that moment .

They could see something flying toward them . Julian couldn’t believe what he was seeing .

“T, that is?!”

The thing that was flying back to Ju-Heon was none other than Gungnir and……

[$&!]

I brought this back! I brought it! The rope was dragging Gungnir back against its wishes .

It seemed as if the rope was collecting Divine-Grade artifacts for Ju-Heon as well .

Ju-Heon smiled with satisfaction .

“Good, I will count that as being equivalent to 100 Divine-Grade artifacts . ”
