Chapter 415
I am not a returner Episode 415:
War of the Stars (6)
“Hmph!”
The one who ran at the forefront was Allen Oscar of the Ungokseong, who was actually ranked first among the 12 Apostles of Deneb and was known as the strongest among the Seven Stars.
‘Ohjin said he would take charge of Moebius.’
What he has to target are the constellations that have turned into Mobius’ puppets.
Among them, it was the constellation Moose in the constellation Paris.
If the ranks of the Black Star’s constellations are the same as the ranks of the Black Star’s executive officers, then the constellation with the next level of power after Moebius would be Moose.
Of course, what meaning does rank have when you have lost your sense and become a puppet?
Still, wouldn’t he be the most threatening among puppets?
‘The constellation Moose of Paris.’
Although I’ve never seen one before, it wasn’t difficult to tell which of those five was the ‘Constellation of Paris’.
Black hair and dark skin.
Ugly red eyes covered half of the face.
As if reminiscent of the eyes of a fly, the tens of thousands of pupils looked like they were wearing a visor helmet rather than eyes when viewed from a distance.
* * *
‘Process it as quickly as possible and join Mr. Oh Jin.’
It was my first time dealing with a constellation, but I wasn’t particularly nervous.
Looking at Moose’s drugged, blurry eyes, I doubted whether he would be able to fight properly.
[It would be unstable to maintain the ‘sanctuary’ if the mind was not sound! [Push forward without any mercy, Allen!]
Deneb, who flew in after Allen, pointed at the moose and shouted.
Allen nodded lightly and raised the power of the Cygnus Stigmata.
-Kwajajajajajajag!
The ground freezes with every step you take.
A white frost storm raged, and a flash-like sword strike was aimed at the moose.
[Ah ugh.]
Moose let out an inexplicable groan and stared blankly at the approaching sword attack.
For a moment, light flashed in the eyes covering his face.
Ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!
The black thorns that sprouted from Moose’s arms deflected Allen’s sword.
Allen frowned and stepped back from the heavy shock that passed through his hand that was holding the sword.
“…Even if you become a puppet, a constellation is still a constellation?”
Moose, who was staring into space with bleary eyes as if he had lost his senses, saw Allen’s sword approaching and flicked his sword away with agility as if he had never been still.
[…The Awakened One.]
A gloomy voice flowed from Moose’s mouth as he looked down blankly at the frost covering the part of his arm that hit the sword.
[Kill the Awakened…
with a low murmur.
Wooooow!
Like a mechanical device being turned on, explosive magical energy covered Moose’s entire body.
The skin on its back split and its transparent wings spread out.
And one step.
Shoo, shoo! Shush!
The moose approached by turning at a right angle in the air as if performing a three-dimensional maneuver.
The black thorns on the moose’s arms pierced Allen like an awl.
Allen’s body, which barely raised his sword to defend itself, was thrown back roughly.
“Ugh!”
Allen, who was thrown about a hundred meters, crashed into the exterior wall of the building.
A clear human-shaped mark, like something out of a children’s comedy cartoon, was engraved on the exterior wall.
[Allen!]
“…It’s okay.”
Allen stood up shakily, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
‘I guess I’ll have to give up my plan to process it as quickly as possible.’
I thought it would be easy to subdue a constellation that had become a puppet.
Even if only the shell remained, the constellation was still a constellation.
Even leaving aside its sanctuary, its basic strength and speed were completely different from humans.
‘but.’
The stigmata of Cygnus radiates light as if burning.
‘It’s not that I can’t deal with it.’
Allen, an awakened person who reached the 11th star, also had specs that were completely different from those of humans.
In addition, if the constellation is in a state where it cannot fully use the ‘stigmata’ ability, which can be said to be the core of its power.
“Hmph!”
I took a deep breath and held my sword backwards.
The image that comes to mind is a snowy field.
The sight of a knife-like snowstorm swirling across the endless white land.
The stigmata of Cygnus resonated with the image I had created in my head.
“Freeze!”
He let out a chant and slashed his sword backwards.
The ground froze around the sword digging into the ground.
Snowflakes swirling on the frozen ground.
It may be a beautiful sight on the outside, but if you know that each and every fluttering snowflake is made of sharp sword, you will never feel ‘beautiful’.
[Ah ugh.]
The swirling snowflakes tore into the moose’s body.
Instead of blood, an ugly green fluid flowed from the wound.
But even for a moment.
Maggots boiled like bubbles between the cross sections of the wound, and in an instant, the gaping flesh adhered again.
[Ugh… those stigmata are always unpleasant to see.]
Deneb nauseated and shook her head.
[Allen! The Stigmata of Paris has excellent regenerative abilities, so you have to push it without stopping.]
“I know… uh!”
He created an even stronger snowstorm and put pressure on the moose, but Allen alone was unable to keep up with the regenerative ability of the Stigmata of Paris.
“I’m a bad person too… huh? Oh, that’s right, it’s not a person. “I will punish the bad constellation!”
Baek Moo-gang helped Allen and swung his sword at Moose.
The fierce attacks of the two Seven Stars poured down on the constellation.
Allen and Baek Moo-gang were not the only ones continuing the fierce battle with the Constellation.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The fiercely burning fire aimed at the owl covered in black feathers.
[Dragon Eyes… Awakened One.]
Noctua, the constellation of Owl, looked at Ha-eun and opened her mouth in a stuttering tone.
“Even if you become a prick, do you still remember it?”
Ha-eun grinned and twisted the corner of her mouth and aimed the tobacco in her hand at Noctua.
“I had a hard time because of your kid.”
How could I forget?
I remember being caught by Cheon Do-yoon and almost having my eyes gouged out.
If Oh Jin had not awakened ‘Gaecheon’ at that time, she would have been trapped in the dark without a single light.
“Well, thanks to that, I was able to confess to Ojini and things went well.”
Just because the results were good, it didn’t mean that what I experienced that day was a fun kidnapping story (that I suffered).
[I… don’t remember… kidnapping you.]
“In the first place, parents bear the responsibility of their children. I did not know?”
The light that formed at the end of the year gradually grew in size and turned into the shape of a huge dragon.
“Burn up.”
A huge fire hit Noctua like a tidal wave.
As if the tsunami of flames that hit Noctua was not enough, it spread out in all directions and swept the surrounding area.
“Tsk…! Ha-eun, please control your firepower.”
Isabella, scorched by the flames spreading in all directions, frowned and turned her head to Ha-eun.
Ha-eun smiled mischievously and scratched her head.
ha.
Isabella sighed deeply and looked again at the ‘enemy’ she was dealing with.
A hideous looking constellation with a long slit mouth and sharp fangs.
He looked at Isabella with hazy eyes and muttered as if he couldn’t understand.
[My… child. Why are you attacking me…?]
“It’s not like your child.”
Isabella looked at the constellation Hirudo in the constellation Leech and grabbed the blood-red scythe.
“For me, this stigmata… was nothing short of a terrible curse.”
Only now, thanks to misdiagnosis, have I been able to free myself from the urge to suck blood.
In the past, she had to suffer every day from the terrible urge to suck blood brought on by the leech stigmata.
A terrible thirst that made my soul feel dry.
For her, who had suffered from that thirst for several years, the constellation of Leech was not a benefactor who bestowed stigmata, but an enemy to be hated.
[I… why… ugh… ugh.]
“It’s a shame. “If I were to get revenge, I wanted to do it on you in a more normal state.”
Isabella swung her scythe towards Hirudo, creating blood-red chains around her body.
“Everyone is fighting hard.”
Moebius raised his eyebrows as he looked at the battlefield where a fierce battle had begun.
“It’s not the time to act like it’s someone else’s business…!”
Let’s go!
A spearhead filled with blue thunderbolts was aimed at Mobius.
Moebius glided across the floor, dodging the spear, and lightly swung the sword in his hand.
An ordinary sword strike with no special skills or overwhelming power.
It was a sword attack that could have been avoided with Ojin’s skills even with his eyes closed.
“Ugh!”
Ojin’s chest was cut long and blood flowed out.
‘What the hell?’
I clearly dodged the sword and opened a reasonable distance.
It would have been a distance that even the sword wind created when the sword was swung couldn’t reach it, let alone the blade.
What on earth cut my chest?
[A shadow!]
“…A shadow?”
Ojin’s gaze turned to the bottom of the sword.
I could see the long shadow of the sword Mobius was holding.
‘Was it this?’
The stigmata of Ophiuchus is the stigmata that deals with ‘shadow’.
It was his own fault for not being able to catch the shadow that had been cast because his eyes were focused on the sword.
“Haha, you are Vega as expected. “You figured out my abilities all at once.”
Moebius shrugged his shoulders and lowered his sword arm.
The fluctuating shadow spread widely along the sword pole.
‘Shadow.’
I felt it when dealing with Cassia, but it was definitely a tricky ability.
Because it was impossible to eliminate the existence of shadows as long as there was light.
‘No, it’s the same even if there is no light.’
The shadow created by Mobius’ ability was not an actual shadow, but something completely different with the characteristics of a shadow.
Even if you block all light, the shadow itself will not disappear.
‘then.’
All you have to do is go to a place where that shadow can’t reach.
“Hmph!”
After jumping high, I stepped on the air using the thunder stamp.
In the first place, ‘air’ is a place where shadows cannot reach.
As long as the stigmata of Mobius had its essence in the shadows, it could not affect the air.
“This is the method you used on Cassia before.”
Moebius shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly.
“Did you think the method that worked for her would work for me too?”
A leisurely swing of the sword.
The air split along the path of the sword and a shadow spread out like smoke.
A shadow floating in the air like smoke.
Although it was physically impossible.
“When dealing with constellations, common sense can sometimes be poison.”
It is an extremely natural ‘common sense’ that a shadow will not reach the sky.
However, mocking and distorting such obvious laws was the power of the constellation’s sanctuary.
-Chaaaaaaaa!
A blade rose from the shadow cast in the air.
Ohjin’s body, which rose into the air, was cut to pieces by dozens of blades.
“Wow!”
Ojin was lying on the floor, vomiting blood.
“Hmm. Was it too overrated?”
Moebius walked towards Ojin, who had fallen on the floor, looking disappointed.
Arms and legs cut off by the shadow blade.
Ojin, whose limbs had been cut off, was lying on the floor like a broken roly-poly doll.
“Ah ugh! Argh! My my my paaaaal!”
“Yes, I understand. You must be sick. But….”
“My my my paal!!” “My arm!”
“…?”
Moebius frowned as if he couldn’t understand.
Although it is true that his arm was cut off.
If it had been cut off, the same would have happened to the leg, but I couldn’t understand why only the arm was crying like that.
Mobius’ gaze naturally turned to Ojin’s severed arm.
At that place.
Ohjin’s severed arm was lying on the floor with his middle finger raised.
“…what?”
Before the question even came out of my mouth.
Phew.
The spear pierced Moebius’ chest and came out.
“What are you doing, bastard?”
I’m saying fuck you.
