The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 471

‘Should I stop her?’

‘It seems like a one-sided misunderstanding, not a mutual one.’

“The enemies are running away!”

“!”

The Texan clan hunters returned from scouting.

It seemed that because of the charge of Choi Yeonseung’s team, the household members of the evil god constellations could no longer hold on and ran away.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ is asking for help.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ says that if left unchecked, the good god constellations will bectoo strong]

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ asks where the ‘Goddess of Discord and Estrangement’ and the ‘Bubbling Mass of Plague’ have gone.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ asks if that is important right now.]

The evil god constellations that were cornered didn’t give up and retreat. They wouldn’t be able to call themselves evil god constellations if they just gave up.

Instead, they went up to the stronger evil god constellations. The alliance of the good god constellations was as strong as ever, so they had no choice but to borrow power to fend them off.

Excuse me...

[The ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’ is silent.]

Um...I have something to tell you.

[The ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’ is silent.]

If you would listen for a few moments…

[The ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’ is silent.]

You bastard!

[The ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’ is silent.]

Of course, it wasn’t easy to get power from the stronger evil god constellations. In fact, it was easier to borrow power from the evil god constellation who imposed unreasonable conditions.

There were also evil god constellations that blatantly ignored requests or even took the opportunity to attack the constellation that requested their power.

The Master of Slowness and Silence was silent as though it couldn’t be bothered by any requests or curses.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ curses the ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’.]

The evil god constellations huffed and retreated. They had suspected that it would be like this, but they were nonetheless angry.

That constellation was a lazy pig who only cared about itself!

The evil god constellations turned around and headed for the next constellation.

[The ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’ asks what is going on.]

The Snake of Alcohol and Dancing—a powerful evil god constellation who had occupied the North Korean region during the first invasion. She was also a reclusive constellation, similarly to the Master of Slowness and Silence.

Nonetheless, it was well known that she was among the most powerful constellations on Earth.

The evil god constellations explained what had happened and made a plea.

[The ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’ asks what happened to the ‘Expert of Twisted Hallucinations’.]

The faces of the constellation dropped at that question.

There was no need to talk about that imbecile!

All the evil god constellations who were taking part in this great invasion were gritting their teeth in anger at the Expert of Twisted Hallucinations. He had taken the initiative but lost the constellation battle in a pitiful manner.

Of course, the hallucination constellation had rebuked them by saying, “Is it my fault that you can’t succeed even with all the support I’ve given you?”

However, evil god constellations were shameless by nature.

[The ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’ chuckles and says that he seems to have been defeated.]

[She asks what you can offer in exchange for her help.]

...

...

The evil god constellations were silent. It wasn’t like they weren’t ready to pay a price. However, they kept quiet because they were afraid that their weaknesses would be further exposed if they spoke too soon.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ says he has prepared household members to offer to the ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ says that it has prepared the demon swords and spears that have brought destruction to various kingdoms in the Abyss.]

Two constellations carefully broke the silence. Both of them had prepared considerable offerings, from household members to artifacts with an evil history.

However, the Snake of Alcohol and Dancing was a much more eccentric constellation than they thought.

[The ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’ says it isn’t fun at all and tells you to get out of here.]

You’re a real piece of shit!

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ curses the ‘Snake of Alcohol and Dancing’.]

Ask for help and get rejected, rinse and repeat… In the end, they were forced to go to someone they really didn’t want to go to.

[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ asks what is going on.]

The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust—she didn’t occupy any areas on Earth, but her noften cup when talking about strong evil god constellations.

Compared to Abyssal races, the humans of Earth sought pleasure quite often, so the goddess who presided over the realm of pleasure was bound to be strong.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ is asking for help.]

[He accuses the other evil god constellations of being scared with their tails between their legs.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ says that if you help, they will defeat the other good god constellations and elevate the nof ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust.’]

The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust looked down at the constellation with arrogant eyes. She was extremely eccentric and conceited even for the standards of evil god constellations.

Knowing this, the Giant with the First Fland the others were waiting nervously for a reply. This type of submission was unbearable for evil god constellations, who always reigned like kings in their own territories.

[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ says she will see what you trivial ones can do.]

...

***

Whenever evil god constellations wanted to cause trouble on Earth, they preferred sending their household members to areas with symbolic meaning

Spreading chaos in the middle of a country’s capital was much more impactful than doing it in remote mountains where no one could witness it.

Moreover, even though there were billions of humans on Earth, they were all conveniently connected through technology. That meant that a significant incident in one country would quickly be known to the whole world.

After learning about that, the evil god constellations started choosing only places that would leave a strong impression if plunged into chaos.

The swas true of Texas.

The Texas State Capitol, located in the city of Austin, the capital of Texas, was the first objective occupied by the evil god constellations.

“I’ll make sure to put the American flag in front of the Capitol with my own hands!”

Governor Kenny was naturally eyeing the Capitol.

At the moment, the entire United States was in a state of disarray because of the activity of the evil god constellations. Thus, there would be nothing more impactful than the symbolic achievement of restoring order in Texas.

Moreover, the governor that managed to plant that flag would forever be remembered as a symbol of American strength!

Of course, such an achievement would obviously be a huge advantage in the presidential elections.

“Umm… I see.”

“Hunter Choi Yeonseung, I’m sorry. I won’t be able to support you if I’m chosen as the candidate for the Liberal Federalists.”

Governor Kenny looked genuinely sorry. He felt guilty that he had made an A-grade hunter work for such a cheap price.

“No... It’s okay. After all, I agreed to the conditions.”

Of course, Choi Yeonseung was also genuinely sorry. He had received confirmation from Adaquaniel that Kenny wouldn’t succeed in the upcoming elections.

Thus, he was naturally heartbroken to hear Kenny exclaim so enthusiastically that he was going to be a presidential candidate.

‘I’ve heard that there’s no cure for someone who gets into politics. Turns out it’s true.’

There was a twhen Choi Yeonseung wondered why spoliticians embarrassed themselves by sticking to their candidacy even though their approval ratings were awful. However, seeing Governor Kenny, he realized that everyone had their reasons.

“Thank you, Hunter Choi Yeonseung. If it weren’t for you, the area around here would still be burning to the ground.”

“Honestly, I didn’t expect the governor to bring in an A-grade hunter.”

The clan members spoke from the bottom of their hearts. None of them had expected Governor Kenny to get an A-grade hunter to help out like this, not when all the A-grade hunters were busy protecting their own properties and their prosperous cities.

They didn’t think that Governor Kenny was incompetent, but they definitely didn’t consider them capable enough to persuade an A-grade hunter.

They had half given up...

“I just did what I had to do.”

“I heard you didn’t pay him properly?”

It wasn’t that Choi Yeonseung hadn’t been paid. He had indeed taken what was left of the state’s budget, but the hunters didn’t consider it proper compensation.

‘I shouldn’t be saying this, but these hunters are a bit crazy.’

Even those that were crazy about money weren’t this crazy!

“I think Choi Yeonseung was tricked by the governor.”

“If you kill him, we’ll pretend we didn’t see it.”

“Yeah, I’m fine with that.”

The clan leaders were speaking in low voices, but the governor was staring at the Texas Capitol as though hypnotized by it, so he didn’t hear any of them.

“I think there’s a misunderstanding. I really am happy with the governor’s proposal.”

“You are happy with it?”

The clan leaders looked at Choi Yeonseung incredulously. Even if he was a modest hunter, wasn’t this ridiculous?

“Someone like you should be governor.”

“Do you have any intention of becoming a governor? We’ll support you.”

“...Do you know what country I’m from?” Choi Yeonseung asked just in case.

The clan leaders seemed confused by his question, and one of them asked, “Aren’t you American?”

“...No. I am Korean.”

“What? That’s ridiculous!”

[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ sends her household member.]

“!”

Illaphael, who had been resting, immediately spread out her wings and stood up. She then shook Illeya, who had fallen asleep next to her, and woke her up.

“Wake up!”

Illeya stood up, groggy and grimacing. She then cursed Illaphael in a low voice that was hard to understand.

“What did you say?” asked Illaphael.

“Nothing...”

“The enemy is coming. It looks like another constellation has intervened.”

“Uh… There is only one… Can’t we wait?”

Illeya tilted her head as she held up a finger. She wondered if it was really necessary for her to get up right then. Choi Yeonseung had already made a decision and given the order, so couldn’t she wake up at that time?

“Shouldn’t we help Choi Yeonseung make a decision? There are only weak humans over there.”

“...”

Illeya was seriously considering hitting Illaphael on the back of her head. She was exhausted from running all over Texas and wiping out enemies. This angel was really...

“Aren’t you tired?”

“I am, but my weariness is honorable proof that I’m fighting! Now, let’s go.”

Illaphael grabbed Illeya and dragged her away, and Choi Yeonseung was puzzled when he saw them approaching.

“You’re already here? You must be tired from fighting, so get srest.”

As a master of martial arts and a constellation, Choi Yeonseung could fight for forty-eight hours straight without getting tired.

In comparison, even though they were strong, Illaphael and Illeya were only mortals. Just using the power they had received from their respective constellations was enough to exhaust them.

That was why he had told them to rest, but they still cforward like this…

“I’m not tired at all, and neither is the household member of the Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place.”

Illeya glared at Illaphael, who was wearing a proud smile.

Seeing Illeya’s reaction, Choi Yeonseung couldn’t help thinking, ‘Shouldn’t I stop Illaphael?’

It wasn’t a big deal for a household member to be hated by another household member. However, it was a different story to incur the wrath of a constellation.

Even though Illeya was a constellation, she was fighting in a mortal body, so it wouldn’t be surprising if she developed a grudge for Illaphael for not allowing her to rest.

Choi Yeonseung thought that Illaphael had to be more careful.

The goddess of sloth wondered.

In the meantime, the household member of the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust approached. She was so beautiful that not even the angels and elves of the Abyss could compare to her, and her confident stride revealed her strength and dignity.

Choi Yeonseung realized that she was a nightmare demon.

‘What? How can such a strong nightmare demon maintain her composure?’

[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ feels bitter.]

[The power of the ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ is activated.]

[Your power of existence blocks it.]

[The ‘Joy and Happiness Aplenty’ power is activated.]

“...?”

In less than a second, there was an exchange of skills and power of existence. Then, the appearance of the household member changed into something that Choi Yeonseung had seen a lot in the realm of the Manipulator of Dreams and Desires.
