Chapter 260
Adaquaniel ignored Garhansha’s words and continued speaking.
“So please calm down your anger. I’ll make sure to get revenge on the collector constellation.”
Umm…
The opponent seemed at a loss, so Choi Yeonseung also intervened.
“I will also speak to the constellations and have some of the British people here serve the ‘One Who Understands and Penetrates Through Indeterminate Forms’.”
The goddess of sloth asked in surprise.
-Is that true?
-Are you crazy? Of course not.
The goddess of sloth admired Choi Yeonseung’s ability to lie so convincingly.
The One Who Understands and Penetrates Through Indeterminate Forms had just become a good lesson, one that the constellation itself could learn from, since it was deceived. In the Abyss, where battles between constellations occurred constantly, one couldn’t easily trust anybody.
Okay. I’ll step back.
-How dare you just do what you want?
Garhansha cried out in anger. However, there wasn’t much that a mortal could do once the constellations had decided among themselves.
Choi Yeonseung pulled out the holy relic.
Crown of an Unknown Kingdom. It was the treasure of the collector constellation, who had captured and occupied a kingdom in the Abyss.
-Here it is!
[The constellation battle has been won!]
Just then, the power of the collector constellation, which covered all of the United Kingdom, was gradually lifted.
There was also a pained, piercing scream, reverberating all the way from the Abyss to Earth.
***
“They’re retreating!”
-Follow me. I’ll take the lead! Surround the enemies!
In the midst of the household members of the angel constellation, Illaphael valiantly shouted commands. The household members of the collector constellation had started to retreat, which meant that Illaphael and the others had to take the opportunity to encircle them and inflict even greater damage.
The charging household members of the angel constellation were flustered when the power of the collector constellation, which had been covering all of the United Kingdom, started to vanish.
What was going on?
“What happened, Illaphael?”
-I see! It’s clear that Master?has dealt a blow to the collector constellation and made them run away!
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ says that isn’t the case.]
-…He says he didn’t!
“Is that so?”
“Then what happened…”
The household members soon understood what had happened.
Surprisingly, the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead had won the constellation battle against the Noble Crown Collector!
“No way!”
“What the hell? How…?”
The hunters who had been fighting looked confused as they couldn’t believe the news. No matter how much they thought about it, they found it ridiculous that the goddess of balance had won over the collector constellation.
To these hunters, it was like an ant had defeated an elephant. It was said that the goddess had been present since the earliest days, but the fact that she had only rarely made appearances meant that she was weaker than the collector constellation.
“Now that this has happened, let’s fight the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead!”
“We can handle this no-name constellation!”
Some of the hunters shouted in angry voices. Normally, it was taboo to insult a constellation. However, if it wasn’t the constellation they followed, it didn’t really matter. There was nothing more frightening than having a stronger constellation as the opponent.
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ orders everyone to calm down.]
Rather than being as angry as the hunters, the angel constellation ordered them to calm down. He also needed time to assess the situation.
“No! She’ll get even more arrogant if we leave her alone like this. If we attack like we’ve done so far, the goddess will run away in a flash! Please give me permission!” shouted one of the hunters firmly.
Some of them had taken part in this simply because their master had ordered them, but some of them were also driven by greed, and had a secret agenda. Those hunters seriously coveted England. If the angel constellation was to retake the United Kingdom, who was going to rule it? The angels of the Abyss?
No, that wasn’t going to happen. The angels of the Abyss had little interest in this kind of realm, and they also didn’t understand the system by which humans governed. To them, human governments and organizations seemed unnecessarily complicated, with too many details.
Naturally, the only ones capable of ruling a country on Earth were the hunters who served the angel constellation. They had the chance to govern the United Kingdom as they pleased. It was a huge luxury that no rich person could afford.
For hunters who had dreamed of such an opportunity, the current situation was bound to be infuriating!
“Permission…”
Just before he could finish his words, lightning struck the hunter, scorching him. He completely vanished without leaving any trace of him behind, and the atmosphere consequently froze. The angels who worshiped the constellation impassively stared at the scene, not even blinking. They made it seem like what had just happened was normal.
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ is angry at the greedy mortal who ignored his order.]
“…”
“…”
The constellation’s unexpected reaction further amplified the somber atmosphere.
The hunters who had just recently become subordinates of the constellation froze in fear. They had thought that the angel constellation was more lenient because he was a good god constellation, but it turned out that they couldn’t have been further away from the truth.
“A-Amelia… This… What is this?”
“Isn’t it natural since he ignored the order and tried to act on his own? Surely you must’ve heard about this when you signed the contract, right?” Aall 𝒏𝒆west ch𝒂pt𝒆rs on n.o./v𝒆l𝒃i/n/(.)c𝒐m
“T-That’s true…”
The new subordinates now seemed to realize how things were. Did this mean they had become the servants of the constellation? They could receive immense power from the constellation, but at the same time, they could die at any time if they opposed the constellation in any way.
They couldn’t just be complacent with something like this and think of it as good.
***
-Thank you for the trouble, Adaquaniel.
-I believed in you!
One by one, the angels of the goddess descended from the sky, frowning at the messy state of London.
-What kind of narrow and dirty place is this?
-It’s hard to fly in a place like this.
For the angels who lived in the realm of the goddess, it was very unpleasant to be in an overcrowded place like London where so many people were gathered in one place. Moreover, what was going on with the air?
The polluted air seemed to weigh down the wings of the angels.
-…Are we supposed to rule this place??
-There’s no way I’m doing this.
-Ah. Hunter Choi Yeonseung, it’s been a while!
-I’m glad to meet you here!
The angels were happy to see Choi Yeonseung, for it had been a long time since the last constellation battle where they had last met.
-Come to think of it, Hunter Choi Yeonseung is a human being. Wouldn’t it be okay to give him this place?
-How can you say something so impudent? He might be a human, but he doesn’t like filthy places like this!
“…”
Choi Yeonseung had a grim expression.
…Wasn’t London a pretty good city?
As a human being, he wanted to protest.
“Here… Aren’t those buildings okay?” said Choi Yeonseung while pointing toward the historic buildings. He didn’t know the name of the palace, but wasn’t it old and gorgeous?
-Isn’t it dirty and old?
-Shh. Hey. Hunter Choi Yeonseung seems to like that one.
-Ahh. I suppose so. Wow! Old-fashioned… Isn’t it cool? Really… Um… It looks good when collapsing? Damn, I can’t think of anything! Help me!
The household members of the goddess were rather honest, and they had no knack for lying.
“You don’t have to lie if you don’t like it.”
-Sigh. Thank you! I’m so glad. It was too painful.
“Can you help me repair the buildings that have suffered damage?”
-I will do as much as I can.
As a constellation, he could restore the collapsed buildings using his power of existence. However, most of Choi Yeonseung’s stats were focused on combat. Therefore, he risked making the buildings even stranger if he tried to restore them.
‘If it’s the magic of the angels…’
-Master. Please help.
[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ is undoing the destruction with her power.]
“…”
Choi Yeonseung was speechless at the angels’ reaction. He had specifically asked them for help because he didn’t want to call the goddess of balance for nothing…
Adaquaniel spoke to him in a slightly embarrassed voice.
-I’m sorry. These angels are a bit pampered.
“Well… It’s good to have a close relationship with your household.”
Choi Yeonseung was lost in thought as he looked at the cities being restored.
‘We did win, but now I’m even more worried.’
It felt ironic that he had to take care of the aftermath of the fight rather than simply fight, but it was a natural thing for constellations.
The first thing to think about was how the collector constellation and the angel constellation would react.
The collector constellation, who had been defeated by an insignificant opponent, would try to get back the UK and take revenge. As for the angel constellation, it wasn’t known how he would react after having fought for so long.
They had fought in the name of the goddess, but as an ally, Choi Yeonseung couldn’t just leave it alone.
-Throwing it away is also a strategy…
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says to sneak away…]
-Everybody, shut up.
The second matter was the management of the United Kingdom.
He didn’t know exactly how the collector constellation ruled the country, but he could tell that the country had been ruled according to the constellation’s tastes. He had placed his subordinates all over the place, arrested anyone who criticized him, put people who suited his taste in important positions, prevented people from going to other countries, prevented people from other countries from entering…
‘…Isn’t it strangely familiar??’
Choi Yeonseung realized that this system was strangely familiar. It was like North Korea or China…
‘Umm. I shouldn’t think too much about this.’
“I want to ask you something, Adaquaniel.”
“Sure, ask me anything.”
“What is the goddess going to do after taking over England?”
Choi Yeonseung was looking forward to the goddess’ plan. Since she had prepared for the constellation battle, surely she had also prepared for the aftermath. She had to have devised a thorough plan.
“She said that she will first receive faith.”
“I guess so.”
The first facilities to be suppressed in countries occupied by constellations were the religious ones. Going to a church or a cathedral to pray was considered one of the most serious acts of rebellion. Instead, humans had to go to the place designated by the constellation and offer sincere prayers to that constellation. Their faith became the strength and existence of the constellation. If they didn’t offer a proper prayer, the constellation would make them do it…
“Of course, you don’t have to worry. Your master will definitely be included in it.”
“Thank you. What next?”
“She told me to ask you…”
“…”
Choi Yeonseung fell silent at the sudden remark. No, it couldn’t be what he thought…?
Choi Yeonseung wondered, “Uh… Is there anything else?”
“Aren’t humans good at governing human tribes? I think you’re the most suitable person for that.”
“It’s not a tribe… It’s highly developed…”
“????”
Adaquaniel usually showed off her competency, but hearing Choi Yeonseung’s words, her face was filled with utter confusion. She spoke with a very apologetic expression. “I’m sorry, Hunter Choi Yeonseung. I don’t know.”
“What do you not understand?”
“So when electing someone as the prime minister, aren’t you meant to select the person with the strongest ability?”
“Uh… We vote for them.”
“Who votes for them? The strong household members?”
“…Many people who live in the United Kingdom. They’re the ones that vote…?”
“Aha. The strong one gets a hundred votes, the weak one gets only one vote, and so on.”
“N-no… The number of votes is the same.”
“Huh? Why do it like that?”
Adaquaniel was asking him all of this because she genuinely couldn’t understand.
Choi Yeonseung sighed deeply. Even if he was a constellation, there were still some things that he couldn’t do.
The goddess of sloth intervened.
-I am curious as well. Why does it work like that? Can you explain?
-I won’t make things complicated for you…
Choi Yeonseung thought he had to call in for reinforcements. It was absolutely impossible for him to govern the United Kingdom by himself.
