The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 261



Chapter 261

[The Noble Crown Collector lost! The United Kingdom is liberated!]

[Will the fall of the evil god constellations begin?]

[We must rid the Earth of all the evil god constellations! All countries should stop fighting with each other and join forces...]

[Stocks related to the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead have surged. Some claims made by large European clans that they are the household members of the constellation have been proven to be false...]

One constellation had once said:

-There is no kingdom in the Abyss as chaotic and complex as the humans on Earth.

Billions of souls were stuck on one planet with a highly developed civilization and no magic. Earth was difficult to comprehend even for the constellations who had lived in the Abyss for countless years.

One thing that constellations struggled to understand was the psychology of human beings.

[The ‘Monk Pursuing Glory’ is persuading you to take advantage of this opportunity to drive out the evil god constellations.]

[The ‘Arrogant Light Elf’ is ordering you to expel all the evil god constellations.]

“But Master, it won’t happen just because I want it.”

“I lead quite a big clan, but on a national scale, I’m not really influential. No matter how much I try to persuade them, the other hunters won’t listen. Truth to be told, most hunters aren’t that passionate about fighting the evil god constellations.”

[...]

[...]

This was one of the things that the good god constellations were most surprised about. It was that the powerful humans on Earth wouldn’t risk their lives to fight the evil god constellations. Of course, it was strictly banned to worship an evil god constellation, and those who did it were arrested.

…But that was it.

Humans were rather passive when it came to fighting for the countries occupied by evil god constellations. Their behavior was incomprehensible to the constellations.

Why were they like that?

It was frustrating to see another country being taken over by the evil god constellations, and instead of getting stronger by doing raids, the hunters were wasting their time with games like the SSL. This phenomenon occurred even after the shocking events that had taken place in London.

“The leader of the United Kingdom has changed??”

“How will the European stock market be affected?”

“It won’t make much of a difference, right?”

“The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead is a good god constellation, which means that things will be better. She won’t make the atmosphere worse. At the very least, she won’t threaten us like the evil god constellations.

The countries occupied by the evil god constellations were as dangerous as those ruled by a crazy dictator. Thus, the disappearance of the collector constellation was definitely good news. The only problem was...

“The United Kingdom belongs to the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons! The despicable goddess stepped in and tried to steal it for herself!”

It started with the hunters who had uploaded their outburst of anger on Youtube.

“The good god constellations must return the United Kingdom to the British government! Allow the exiled royal family and government to return to the country!”

There was also the old British government, the lawmakers and their followers, who had long since run away and had aged or died. Those people were also making a fuss.

“Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead! We believe in you! Please accept us as your people or your servants!”

“I will be loyal!”

There were even hunters eager to swear an oath of allegiance to the powerful, newly emerged constellation in order to gain strength.

The chaos had only just begun.

“...”

Hwang Gyeongryong’s daughter, Aine Lawrence, got off the private jet with wide eyes. She had never thought she would set foot in London’s airport in her life.

“Ugh. Jet... Jet lag...”

Someone told her, “You don’t look good.”

“Do I look that bad?” wondered Aine.

“Yes.”

“...Bring me something to cover my face.”

The secretaries were surprised by Aine’s words as she normally didn’t really care about her appearance. She was so beautiful that she didn’t have to worry about this, but more than that, it was due to her personality.

Aine was so focused on her work that she didn’t spend much time on trivial things.

“Grandmother... No… The hunter I’m about to meet is a nuisance in that regard.”

“Did you just say grandmother...?”

“Be quiet.”

“Yes.”

The secretaries ceased talking because they didn’t want to upset Aine’s for nothing. Aine checked her appearance in the mirror. The puffiness under her eyes seemed to be somewhat concealed.

‘If I look bad, he’s going to be so concerned that I won’t hear the end of it.’

It was discouraging to go to work and hear things like ‘Are you eating these days? You’re very skinny! I don’t know what Gyeongryong hyung is doing! What’s wrong with him?!' It was even more so in the current situation where there were so many things ahead of them.

“But Miss Lawrence, you don’t hate it.”

“Are you trying to get fired?”

“I-I’m sorry.”

The secretary had hit the nail on the head, which caused Aine to glare at her. Of course, Aine didn’t hate Choi Yeonseung’s warmth that reminded her of her grandmother. Once she sat down, she would receive a generous meal that was hard to find in any three-star restaurant. That meal would easily make her gain a few kilograms.

In addition, there was something about Choi Yeonseung’s cooking that strangely touched her heart. It was a bit different from the world’s best chefs and the ingredients were special, but once she ate it, her soul was fulfilled...

-Are they humans?

-It seems right.

At a deserted airport in a country previously occupied by the evil god constellation, there was a peculiar atmosphere. Obviously, there were countless people in the city, but these streets in broad daylight were silent. The airport was the same, with only a few staff members and a handful of passengers. In addition, there were angels standing in the middle.

“...!”

“Uh, an Abyssal race...”

The nervous secretaries gulped. Unlike Aine, who was a hunter, they were just civilians. They felt intimidated and scared just looking at a species from the Abyss.

-Who is the niece of Hunter Choi Yeonseung?

Aine raised her hand. She was in enemy territory, which meant she had to answer the other party’s questions correctly and politely. The angels nodded and suddenly used magic.

“!”

Aine tried to react, but the angels’ magic was quicker.

‘What...?!’

A beautiful golden chariot suddenly appeared. The sight of the chariot led by a pegasus and unicorns shocked Aine.

“...What?”

-This is hospitality, isn’t it? Come, get on quickly.

“Huh??”

-Since you are a precious person, we have to treat you with hospitality. Now, come quickly.

“...”

Aine got on the chariot with a dazed expression.

The secretaries looked slightly envious. How many times in their lives would they get to ride in such a chariot? One of them said, “We...”

-Are you related to Hunter Choi Yeonseung?

“No.”

-Then walk.

“Yes...”

The secretaries trudged along.

***

The hunters and staff members from the Icarus clan, who had come to do a raid in a suitable rural village, suddenly arrived at Buckingham Palace. Things had changed dramatically overnight.

“Isn’t it a good thing? It’s a good thing, right?”

“I think it’s good...”

“The incarnation of training got the United Kingdom along with the goddess. Choi Yeonseung is the incarnation of training’s household member. Doesn’t he have considerable power?”

“Ohh...”

There was a reason why people who believed in evil god constellations continued to appear despite those constellations being reviled and it being strictly prohibited in all countries. In addition to the strength gained, they could live like kings in the country occupied by an evil god constellation.

If a hunter who believed in the collector constellation escaped and took refuge in the United Kingdom, they could become powerful enough to slap the British prime minister in the face.

In that sense, Choi Yeonseung was in a very advantageous position now.

“Choi Yeonseung, are you really going to live in England?”

“If that’s the case...”

Some hunters looked curious. It was nice to live as a hunter in a clan where only geniuses gathered, but living like a king in England was something worth trying.

“Choi Yeonseung has the favor of the incarnation of training, but we don’t have anything, do we? Can we receive such treatment?”

“I don’t know. Surprisingly enough, constellations aren’t interested in humans. They’ll ask their household members to take care of it.”

“I don’t intend to live in England, but I want to start a business here. Hey, who wants to invest?”

“The weather is good today. I was quite worried because I’ve heard that England has terrible weather.”

“Oh. Really? Why don’t we take a photo together?”

“These bastards...”

As the hunters were chatting, Aine arrived and greeted Choi Yeonseung.

“I was really surprised to hear the news. “I didn’t expect this to happen,” said Aine.

“I was surprised as well. What’s wrong with your face? You look like a skeleton.”

“...”

Aine was speechless.

“No... I’m fine...”

“Take a break,” said Choi Yeonseung.

“I don’t need sleep...”

“I’ll give you IV drip therapy, so go and get some sleep. We can talk after that.”

The IV therapy had the effect of putting people to sleep. No matter how much Aine tried to stay awake, she fell asleep as soon as she received the IV drip. Choi Yeonseung felt sad as she watched Aine instantly fall asleep.

“Why is she working so hard?”

“It... It’s not our fault. We’re her subordinates...”

The secretaries hurriedly made excuses out of fear that Choi Yeonseung would chastise them, but he merely shrugged.

“Since she’s your boss, there’s nothing you can do. Sit down. I initially prepared food to serve Aine after she arrived, but now she’s asleep, and it would be a waste to throw it away...”

“Ah. Thank you.”

The secretaries sat down. In fact, they had come a long way, and given that this was England, they hadn’t much of an appetite, but...

One of the household members of the constellation occupied this place. Anyone who refused to listen to this A-grade hunter was crazy.

“...!!!”

“!!!”

***

Aine woke up after sleeping for 48 hours and was dumbfounded to see that the secretaries had gained two or three kilograms.

This thing...

“Ah, Miss Lawrence. You’re awake!”

Aine wondered, “Did you explain it properly while I was sleeping?”

“Uh, that...”

The secretary looked away. The dishes prepared by Choi Yeonseung had reinvigorated the secretaries, who had been immersed in life and work after having left their prestigious universities. Those magical dishes had revived their childhood dreams!

The scenery of London, which they had never experienced before, now had a special charm to it. Therefore, the secretaries felt like they were on vacation.

The secretaries experienced such pleasure after constantly working twenty-five hours a day for Aine that they wondered if this was what life offered.

The humid and foggy weather of London was also dazzling.

-You don’t necessarily need a multimillion dollar salary in life, do you?

-That’s right, friend. I’ve realized that living in the moment is far more important than money.

Aine asked in disbelief, “...Did you all do drugs while I was away?”

Were they crazy...?

“I-I’m sorry.”

“Forget it. Get ready.”

Aine pulled out the materials she had prepared.

[How did the ‘Aiden’ clan establish and rule a republic?]

“What’s with this Aiden clan?”

“It’s a clan that has defeated some monsters in Africa and received a country.”

“How are they doing?”

“It’s a bit complicated. They get cursed at a lot, but the hunters are doing well.”

“I see.”

It didn’t bode well just listening to these words. Choi Yeonseung shook his head.

Did hunters have the ability to rule a country?

-Hmm. Goddess of sloth. Given that you are the most experienced entity, what would you do?

-I would first pick the strongest one and place them in the position of chief or king...

-Forget it. I shouldn’t have asked you.

-Why do you have this attitude when you’re the one that asked me in the first place??
