The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 494

Chapter 494

However, the situation had become so intense that no one could keep talking.

The kraken didn’t just target the elves.

BANG!

“!”

[The protection of the ’Master of the Anvil and Hammer’ is broken!]

[...]

The dwarves serving the Master of the Anvil and Hammer were astonished to see the shield bestowed by their master being shattered. How could a monster break a constellation’s shield...?

“Aaaaahhh!” the dwarves screamed as they fell into the sea one by one.

Choi Yeonseung was slightly embarrassed by this sight.

‘I thought they’d fight better than this...’

He had been hoping that those on the ship could attract the kraken’s attention, but they just fell like leaves in the wind at the kraken’s attack. It was absurd... What were they doing?

-Don’t expect too much!

Indeed, Choi Yeonseung was expecting too much. Most mortals couldn’t fight as well as him, and those that could either became constellations or died before that.

Choi Yeonseung turned to the lion beast warrior he had saved earlier and shouted, “Tell the dwarves that I’ll save their comrades, but they’ll be indebted to me!” Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

“I-I understand!”

The lion beast warrior quickly complied.

The dwarves, who were still in shock due to what had happened to their comrades, nodded at his words.

“We understand! If that’s what you want!”

“We’ll do anything as long as our comrades are saved! By the way, why are you running errands for a human being?”

“...”

The sharp question left the lion beast warrior speechless.

Bang!!

Meanwhile, Choi Yeonseung jumped into the sea and ran on its surface like a gust of wind.

Everyone who was part of this raid was considered as a hero in their own Abyss kingdom. However, they all struggled to get out of the freezing Abyssal sea.

Indeed, for those encountering an Abyssal sea for the first time, its volatile and violent nature was bound to be overwhelming. This was a terribly harsh environment that disrupted all kinds of magic and skills.

However, the worse the conditions were, the more Choi Yeonseung’s martial arts shone.

The kraken seemed annoyed by Choi Yeonseung’s appearance, so it sped up like crazy and focused its attacks on him.

A pillar of water rose from the sea to stop Choi Yeonseung in his tracks.

‘There’s no need to watch or avoid it.’

Normally, Choi Yeonseung would’ve read the kraken’s movements and the motion of the water column before evading it with Origin of the Celestial Step.

However, his movement had evolved one step further thanks to the power of the Future Sight.

‘It’s being pulled in!’

The goddess of sloth was surprised. Up to this point, every time Choi Yeonseung used the power of a constellation, he was essentially borrowing it. However, Choi Yeonseung’s power of existence had become even greater after the last assassination incident.

Thus, instead of simply borrowing a power, he could now integrate it with his martial arts. In this situation, he wasn’t using Future Sight separately, but as part of his martial arts ability.

The Dignity of Light given by the Arrogant Light Elf had also changed. Before, this power would be activated separately by the elf constellation and infused in Choi Yeonseung’s martial arts attacks, making them shine.

Choi Yeonseung himself wasn’t aware of it, but the goddess of sloth picked up on it and was amazed. He was subconsciously drawing on the power of another constellation!

Suddenly, a huge amount of vapor rose from the sea.

The moment Choi Yeonseung turned his internal energy into extreme yang energy, the surrounding water instantly vaporized and turned into steam. The column of water was already obscuring everyone’s vision, and the steam made it ten times worse.

The kraken was flustered, and Choi Yeonseung didn’t miss this opportunity.

“!!”

Choi Yeonseung caught the mortals who had fallen into the sea one by one.

Tangol shouted at the top of his lungs, “Let me die! You can’t defeat it if you try to save me!”

If his fellow elves trying to save him had heard this, they would’ve died of frustration. However, the current situation was so chaotic that only Choi Yeonseung had managed to hear him.

Of course, it wouldn’t have made a difference if Choi Yeonseung hadn’t heard Tangol, given that he had already stopped listening to him. Besides, he wouldn’t waste his time trying to protect Tangol. He had already thought of an efficient way to save him.

“Don’t move. You seem rather suspicious. Your magic power is unstable and sinister.”

“...”

The household members of the Beast of Swords and Spears were flustered by all the elves and dwarves surrounding them. They were surrounded in such a way that they couldn’t do anything.

“What do you think you’re doing? I took part in this journey to challenge the order of the Chef of Endless Gluttony...”

“Shut up! The master of this ship is Hunter Choi Yeonseung. Those who disobey his orders will be thrown in the sea. Get on your knees!”

“???”

The ship had changed so much that the household members of the Beast of Swords and Spears couldn’t adjust to the situation.

What had happened on this ship?!

***

‘Hmm.’

Choi Yeonseung sat in the middle of the third floor, lost in thought. The giants next to him bowed and poured him a drink.

The kraken raid had been surprising in many ways. It was amazing that such a strong monster had been hiding in this sea, but...

The actions of the household members of the Chef of Endless Gluttony had been quite unexpected. Instead of defending the ship of their master, they disappeared...?

Thanks to that, Choi Yeonseung had easily managed to take control of the ship with the Abyssal races who had sworn allegiance to him, but he was still apprehensive about the intentions of the chef constellation.

‘Does he really want to fight?’

This whole thing had started out as a luxurious and comfortable journey where all they had to do was guess who the captain was. However, traps and hints kept being revealed as the journey progressed.

The guides of the cruise disappeared, and powerful monsters popped out from all directions. Soon, everyone on the ship started fighting and nobody tried to stop them. It was as though everyone had been waiting to jump at each other’s throats.

...But the situation was a bit different now. Choi Yeonseung had taken full control of the ship.

Thanks to this, the household members with nefarious intentions were caught as soon as they stepped foot on the ship.

Even if monsters appeared, the passengers of the ship could respond efficiently and systematically thanks to Choi Yeonseung’s administration.

Choi Yeonseung wasn’t sure if this was the right direction to take. If the way to clear this raid was to get rid of all the household members of the evil god constellations on the ship, Choi Yeonseung was doing a lot of work.

“Excuse me, Choi Yeonseung.”

“?”

“It seems that the ship’s supplies... are running out.”

“The supplies? Tsk! The chef constellation is really starting to piss me off.”

“What should we do?”

“Forget it. I’ll take it out.”

“...?!”

***

It wasn’t just Choi Yeonseung; the Chef of Endless Gluttony was also worried. Could the humans really clear the raid this way?

-...Should we go and disturb them?

-No. A promise is a promise.

Just as Choi Yeonseung had expected, the ship of the Chef of Endless Gluttony wasn’t that glamorous. It seemed peaceful and comfortable on the surface, but in reality, it was a terrifying prison in which the mortals would be forced to stab each other in the back as the voyage continued.

If they wanted to escape the ship, they needed to find the answer.

...However, Choi Yeonseung took control of the first floor as soon as he boarded the ship. Then, following the kraken attack, he seized control of the whole ship.

Now that the household members of the chef constellation had disappeared from the ship, there was no one to stop Choi Yeonseung.

Of course, something might change if everyone rebelled against Choi Yeonseung, but he was controlling too many Abyssal races for that to happen.

Even the Chef of Endless Gluttony was embarrassed by how those proud races obeyed Choi Yeonseung. It was as though they were hypnotized by him.

-Excuse me, Master. That human is snatching monsters from the sea... Are you sure you don’t want us to stop him?

...Leave him be. That’s also a trick of his.

The Chef of Endless Gluttony was speechless at the sight of Choi Yeonseung snatching monsters from the sea as though taking fish from a tank at a sushi restaurant.

The chef constellation had made this challenge difficult, but...

That mortal was just unreal...

‘This guy... He might really be the dagger that could pierce the Master of Slowness and Silence...’
