Chapter 422
I am not a returner Episode 422:
War of the Stars (13)
A brilliant cluster of lights split the sky covered with dark clouds.
Sanctuaries and sanctuaries spread out like flower petals in full bloom, overlapping to create a flower garden of starlight.
“Why…”
Mobius wiped his face as he looked at the shining starlight.
The question of why filled my mind.
“You guys… are not like that.”
I recall the memories of that day, like a stain on a white shirt, deeply engraved in my mind.
A girl lying down and dying.
The eyes that used to shine brightly like starlight turned a dull gray, and the limbs that were thin like branches were bent in strange directions.
No one came forward for that girl.
I beg like that.
I long for it so much.
I cried at the top of my lungs.
“At that time, no one… came forward.”
With my head down like a criminal.
As I turned away from the dying children.
Now you’re saying you’re going to come and protect the children?
“It’s not possible….”
It’s unreasonable.
It’s absurd.
It’s unequal.
“If you guys come out like this, what will happen to that child?”
I shout like a scream.
[Did you say Eve? The names of the four children who died in the past war of stars.]
Deneb asked as he walked toward Moebius.
“Don’t mention that child’s name in your mouth.”
[…I feel sorry for your child.]
Although Deneb was not there.
However, this did not mean that there was no responsibility.
The karma for being silent that day was something that all constellations had to share.
“sorry…? “Are you sorry?”
under.
Moebius covered his face with his hands and shook his shoulders.
I heard Vega say ‘I’m sorry’ earlier, but it felt completely different then.
That’s because I just wanted her to think she was special.
All he had to do was expect her to experience the same despair he experienced in the past.
but.
Isn’t this a different story?
“Don’t apologize.”
Don’t repent.
Don’t repent.
Don’t regret it.
“You just… remain the same trash you were then.”
They even turn their backs on their own children before the rules of the Creator God.
Just stay like those bastards.
No, you have to stay.
Only then can I help you━
[That seems difficult.]
Deneb shook her head softly.
[It may be the same in your eyes, but it is different now and then.]
“What’s the difference?”
[Us.]
Deneb placed her hand on her left chest and looked around.
The constellations were seen holding the fallen awakened people carefully in their arms and evacuating them to a safe place.
[We have changed.]
At a time when meeting humans was still unfamiliar.
The reason the Constellations tried to protect humans was ultimately due to their duty as Constellations.
Since it was a simple duty, I did not try to follow it even by going beyond the prescribed rules.
okay. To put it a little more directly.
At the time, there were not many constellations that thought their children were that ‘precious’.
[But now it’s different.]
Meeting them, getting closer, fighting and making up.
Protecting humans has become more than a simple duty.
“…no.”
Moebius stared at the constellations with fiercely shining eyes.
“You guys haven’t changed. “Then and now.”
Grumble!
The clouds of the black sky shook violently.
“I will prove it myself.”
That you guys haven’t changed at all.
Quang!
The entire city shook with a loud noise.
Black storm clouds throbbed wildly as they struck the sanctuary spread out by the constellations.
[It’s coming!]
With Deneb’s shout, the clash between the constellations and the Black Star constellation began.
The brilliantly shining sanctuary and the black storm clouds biting at him greedily.
The number was much greater among the Constellations, but they were restricted by the law and were falling one by one, feeling terrible pain just by carrying out their mission.
[If time passes, this is at a disadvantage!]
[I know!]
Deneb and Vega flew high into the sky.
A fierce snowstorm and silver waves mixed together to drive the black star constellations.
[sister! The cat is going that way!]
I turned my head at Spica’s shout and saw Felis, the constellation of Cat, running through the air.
Vega’s eyes narrowed.
Suddenly, a memory of meeting Felice in the demonic realm flashed through my head.
[Hmm. Now that I think about it, I coveted the original woman’s child.]
Of course, since his consciousness was under the control of Mobius, there was no trace of the cat that was so arrogant back then.
The memory of calling Oh Jin his ‘butler’ and trying to take him away was still clearly etched in my mind.
[You may have committed great disrespect towards your child, but as the constellation of the North Star, how could you harbor resentment over such a personal matter?]
Vega continued speaking with a benevolent smile on her lips.
[I will forgive your rudeness for daring to covet my wife’s child and free you from the snake that is binding you.]
[What? Was there a way to get rid of Moebius’ rule?]
Deneb looked back at Vega with a surprised expression.
[Of course.]
[If there was such a method, why didn’t you use it before?]
[I couldn’t use it because the process itself was a bit complicated.]
[Queez. So what is the method?]
If the Black Star constellations were able to escape Moebius’ control, there was a high possibility that infighting would occur among them.
No one likes the experience of being manipulated like a puppet.
[It’s simple.]
Vega smiled brightly as she looked at Felice who was running towards her while nibbling.
[Wouldn’t it be possible to escape from control if the stigmata were destroyed without leaving even a trace?]
[…No, that’s the way?]
Deneb touched her forehead as if she had a headache.
“Nyaaaaaaa!”
Felice, engulfed in silver waves, screamed and fell headlong to the floor.
Kwajajajajajajag!
A huge blue thunderbolt struck from the sky and pierced the fallen palace.
[God’s punishment!]
Vega clenched his fists as he looked down at Felis, who was burning with blue lightning.
ha.
Deneb sighed deeply and shook her head.
[Well… in that sense, there is one person I want to take care of.]
Deneb’s gaze was directed at a constellation with ugly legs made of crustacean.
It was a constellation with such a disgusting appearance that it would be more appropriate to call it a demonic beast rather than a ‘constellation’.
[You made Allen’s arm like that, right?]
Deneb twisted the corners of her mouth fiercely and stretched out her arms towards the constellation Moose in the constellation Paris.
A fierce snowstorm tore apart the moose’s entire body.
“Ah ah.”
A moan like a broken machine escaped from the lips of a moose trapped in a snowstorm that tore through its entire body.
The Stigmata of Paris is the stigmata that deals with ‘disease’.
Originally, it would have been a strong stigmata that could spread the lung rotting disease everywhere just by breathing.
[You’re not a good match for me, are you? Isn’t that right?]
Even the plague that could slaughter tens of millions of people lost its power in the cold of the ‘snow field’ where even the soul seemed to freeze.
“It’s cold…”
The moose urgently looked around to find help, wondering if his survival instinct had disappeared.
The situation was similar on the other side.
[Errachaaaaaaat!]
Kugugugugugung!
A huge wave of power swept through the city, destroying it.
Aldebaran, the giant Taurus constellation whose entire body was covered in red muscles, let out a wild roar and struck Butenin, the Toad constellation, with his fist.
Butenin’s body bounced violently as white steam came out between his hypertrophied muscles.
[Is this all you can do, Butenin?]
Aldebaran burst out in laughter, grabbed Butenin’s fallen leg and threw him like a shot put.
Coogung! thud! Rumbling!
Butenin’s body, which flew through dozens of buildings, rolled on the ground.
[Don’t go too wild, Aldebaran. If you expand your sanctuary like that, you won’t be able to last long.]
Regulus, the constellation of Leo, warned quietly.
[joy! At best, I can fight in front of children, but I’m saving my strength like a coward… Ugh! Whoops!]
[…Didn’t I tell you?]
Regulus clicks his tongue as he looks pitifully at Aldebaran, who is complaining of pain due to overextending his ministry.
While he was calmly examining the battlefield, an unexpected presence entered his field of vision.
[…Woohyuk?]
The child who had inherited his stigmata was standing up shakily.
A black lion heading towards the battlefield, holding its sword tightly even though its body was already in tatters from the previous battle.
[I should have told you to rest!]
“…How can you rest in this situation?”
Lee Woo-hyuk aimed his sword at the black star constellations.
“If I can swing my sword just one more time… we will fight too.”
[We…?]
Regulus turned his head with a puzzled expression.
In the distance, I could see the awakened people who had retired from the battlefield coming back one by one.
“Okay, but I feel better after lying down for a while!”
“We have prevented the seriously injured from coming, so you don’t have to worry.”
Although most of the awakened people were in poor physical condition.
From the point of view of the Constellations, who had to finish the battle as quickly as possible, they could not help but welcome the addition of the Awakened.
“…damn.”
Mobius chewed his lips with a nervous expression as he watched the victory gradually decline.
As the constellations and the awakened people joined in, no matter how many of the Black Star Constellations received the power of the Black Sky, they had no choice but to be pushed back.
‘But if only I could pass the time like this.’
The constellations that could not overcome the restrictions of the law would fall on their own.
The problem was that it was becoming increasingly impossible to take the time.
“How…what should I do?”
When you are biting your nails and trying to squeeze out your thoughts.
“Stop it, Moebius.”
A woman with white blonde hair stepped out of the black shadows.
Although she has a girl-like slender body, she has a certain charm and maturity.
It was another child who inherited his stigmata.
“…Cassia.”
“Enough is enough.”
Cassia continued with sad eyes.
“Eve would hope so too.”
“….”
Moebius’ expression distorted.
“I thought you told me not to mention that name…?”
“Mobius.”
“Enough? “What is enough?”
I shout like I’m vomiting.
“Because you saw the constellations sacrificing themselves for the child? Because I’ve seen people break the boring law and move forward? “Did you see the heartwarming sight of the Constellations and children fighting together?”
therefore.
now.
Satisfied?
“I am!”
It cries out like a scream.
“I lost everything!”
Still now.
Still unchanged.
“My beloved child, my hometown to return to, not even the revenge I have endured for so many years! “There’s not a single one left!”
Everything.
Not a single thing is left behind.
It disappeared.
“What on earth…is enough?”
Transparent tears flowed down the snake’s cheeks.
