"This is it."

"No way! Please give me your real ID."

"That is my real ID!" Lee Gun slammed his hand against the desk in frustration. He had come to a holy item trading center at the Gangnam station. It was the biggest market in Korea.

Lee Gun had come here for a simple reason. It was what had happened at the Archer's holy ground.

"Hey, Oh Taeksoo."

"No. Don't pay attention to that. Also, I want you to stop eyeing that bromide.."

Lee Gun turned to look at Hugo with a baffled expression. Hugo had been acting anxious since the previous day. Lee Gun had caught him hiding his family photos for some odd reason. So, he kicked Hugo as a reply.

"I'm not talking about that, idiot. You said you found out the culprit that stabbed me."

Hearing his words, Hugo brought something that flopped in his hand, a fish. "Not me. He will tell you about it."

"What? That ugly bastard will?"

Yang Wei, who had been put inside a monkfish, almost cussed.

"Of all the people in the world, Lee Gun is disparaging my looks?!"

Yes, the monkfish was none other than Yang Wei.

Lee Gun had taken the extracted soul and put it into a fish that was bought for dinner.

Sneering, Lee Gun replied to Yang Wei, "You were still the ugliest one even before you were put in the fish."

Yang Wei raged at his words.

In the times gone by, the Archer Saint was famous for being the most handsome amongst the twelve Saints. He had taken great care of himself over the years, so he currently looked like a Hollywood actor. However, Lee Gun was different.

"So what? You know who stabbed me?"

"!"

Even Hugo furrowed his brows as he looked at the monkfish.

In truth, he wasn't supposed to be able to hear Yang Wei's voice. Yet, right now, he could, all thanks to the yellow ribbon placed on top of Yang Wei's head.

<Ribbon Containing Serpent Bearer's Power> Rank C

- This ribbon contains the "13th Sense" skill. Anyone favored by the Serpent Bearer will receive its blessing.. The effect fades once you distance yourself from the holy item..

- 13th Sense Applied: Hear voices of souls

While making an accessory, Lee Gun had tried to imbue his skill into a ribbon and this was the result. Then, he had satisfactorily tied the ribbon around the monkfish's head.

Yang Wei turned his head at Lee Gun's words. "I...I don't know. I really don't know who stabbed you."

Hugo's eyes flashed. "If you think you can get away with a half-assed excuse like that..." A light flashed in his eyes as wild magical energy erupted from his body. It was the power of a Saint, and the ground started to shake
