The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 419

What was that just now?

-This area...Its like the realm of a constellation.

Damn. This is getting more complicated

Choi Yeonseung clicked his tongue. The nameless constellation trapped in the dungeon had died and left behind a power of existence that felt almost evil.

Desires are running wild. What does that mean?

[The Manipulator of Dreams and Desires warns that the nightmare demons might be fine, but it will be fatal for humans!]

Choi Yeonseung wasnt affected because he was a constellation, but not all the human hunters around him would be able to control themselves like him.

The hunters were the biggest problem.

From the perspective of the Manipulator of Dreams and Desires, all hunters had very strong desires and always acted according to them. Thus, one couldnt tell what catastrophe would occur if the hunters let their desires run wild.

Choi Yeonseung immediately understood what the Manipulator of Dreams and Desires meant.

-I see.So its like the nightmare demons who came at me in your realm last time?

[The Manipulator of Dreams and Desires says you are correct but wonders why you have to keep...]

-Im worried about Seha.

Choi Yeonseung had stationed her outside for one sole reason. He thought that Han Sehas personality would be a significant weakness when dealing with nightmare demons.

Illaphael, Amelia, and Antony could control themselves, or at the very least Choi Yeonseung could suppress them if they went berserk.

However, Han Seha wasnt like that at all, which was why he had left her outside

-That human will be fine.Shes much more tenacious than you think, Successor.

-Alright. Thank you.

-In addition, the Hound of Instinct and Liberation also cares about that human.

-...Wait, now Im suddenly nervous

***

The nearby Russian clans were put on high alert.

-Hunters, gather at the defense line as quickly as possible.Hunters, gather at the defense line as quickly as possible! The Chort dungeon has collapsed! The Chort dungeon has collapsed!

OIeg, an A-grade hunter and an ace of the Russian clan Gvozdika, rushed over with his subordinates. Even though he was an A-grade hunter, he felt helpless in this situation.

How are things? Give me a status report!

All the civilians in the area have been evacuated!

!

Oleg was startled by that. He had been prepared for the worst, but apparently the evacuation had been a success.

What about the monsters? Did the monsters go somewhere else?

It seems that the hunters who gathered to target the Chort dungeon intercepted the monsters and prevented them from swarming to the nearby city.

!!

Oleg was taken aback once again. Given how grave the situation was, he wouldve expected everyone to run away. Besides, werent those hunters from overseas?

That dungeon had exploded out of the blue, so no one wouldve condemned them for running away

Oleg!

Hunters from another Russian clan, Buratino, came running from the opposite direction. They spoke to him as though they had also heard what was happening.

Weve heard that people from far away are fighting in our place. Is that true?

Hah, thats so funny. Arent they doing that out of greed? Theyre here just to steal a dungeon from someone elses country...

Bam!

!!!

The Russian hunter who was running his mouth without thinking was startled.

Oleg, the A-grade hunter, grabbed him by the collar and glared at him fiercely.

What... Whats wrong?

This is the only time Ill tolerate such disrespectful words. Watch your mouth!

Im... Im sorry!

Seeing this, the other hunters at the scene got scared and adjusted their postures. Oleg was generally a strict soldier, never showing much emotion, and this was the first time they saw him react so violently.

Whats wrong with him?

You idiot His family is nearby.

Ah...

The Russian hunters understood why Oleg was grateful to those overseas hunters.

Hes a fool. He said the wrong thing.

Hell have a hard time in the clan for a while.

The Russian clans were based on hierarchy, and the hunters couldnt afford to upset A-grade hunters like this.

It was obvious that even if Oleg didnt say anything, the other hunters wouldnt leave that guy with the big mouth alone.

***

Are you sure weve stopped all of them? Check!

Ive confirmed it. Theres no magic power response.

The sensors didnt catch anything, and neither did the drones...

Han Seha was slightly impressed by the high-tech equipment that the Icarus hunters used.

By attaching a small artificial artifact to both the detection device and the drone, the hunters could use Life Detection or Magic Power Detection to quickly track down monsters.

Such technology had to be expensive.

The hunters from Korean clans that used detection magic just stepped forward and put their bodies on the line...

Hunter Han Seha? Hunter Han Seha?

...Ah. Everyone did a great job!

At Han Sehas words, the gathered hunters sighed and sat down. They had fought frantically, and they were so exhausted that they didnt even have the energy to cheer.

It was a miracle that there hadnt been any casualties.

[The Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons praises the gathered hunters.]

[The power of the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons restores your magic power!]

Waahhh!

Thank you, angel constellation!

The hunters serving the angel constellation and those from the Icarus clan were all grateful to the angel constellation for helping them in such a situation, regardless of whether they believed in him or not.

Besides, out of all the good god constellations, the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons was among the ones with the better reputations.

Hey, if youre going to offer a gift, you should give us a proper dungeon. What constellation would give such a dungeon as a gift? Are you even a constellation??

...

...

At Han Sehas words, the hunters serving the angel constellation froze, the Icarus hunters being equally frightened.

Shit, shouldnt we stop this?

Do we have to fight a constellation now?

However, they were even more shocked by what happened next.

[The Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons sincerely apologizes.]

[He promises to reward Hunter Choi Yeonseung in a different way.]

!

...!

The hunters were absolutely stunned.

It was the first time they saw a constellation apologize to a hunter like this. No matter how angry Han Seha was, she would definitely calm down now.

Well... As long as you know it. Just do better next time.

Wow... Its truly amazing, Smallwood said to Han Seha with a shocked expression. He finally understood why Han Sehas moniker was Mad Dog.

Among the American hunters, there were all sorts of lunatics who dealt with serial murder, drugs, theft and robbery, but Smallwood was now convinced that wasnt true madness.

Only hunters like Han Seha, who proudly humiliated constellations, were truly mad!

Ah, right.

?

We were talking about all that praise from Hunter Choi Yeonseung. Lets hear the rest of the compliments.

...

Smallwood belatedly recalled the tense conversation they had before the dungeon exploded and began sweating.

Maybe it was because he had used up all his magic power, but he felt like his head was spinning...

The Russian hunters!

They came so fast!

Im saved!

Smallwood was genuinely relieved to see the Russian hunters rushing toward him.

-You have to deal with the nightmare demons in the dungeon first.Those nightmare demons are the most dangerous.

Choi Yeonseung agreed with the goddess of sloth.

The other hunters could deal with the less intelligent monsters, but what about the rampaging nightmare demons?

It could be a disaster if the hunters accidentally stumbled on them.

We will deal with the nearby nightmare demons first. Illaphael, can you move with Amelia?

Of course. Dont worry.

...The nightmare demons are using the power of this realm to enhance their own power. Theyre going to use all of our desires against us. Are you confident you can control yourself?

Of course. Dont worry.

...

Choi Yeonseung felt uncomfortable even asking that.

Of course, objectively speaking, Illaphael was stronger than an S-grade hunter. All the weapons and skills she received from her constellation were above that level.

If Illaphael properly used everything her constellation had bestowed upon her, not many opponents in the Abyss could stand up to her.

...So why was Choi Yeonseung so anxious?

-Maybe its because youve seen her defeated so many times?

-Yeah, I thought so too.

As a human, Choi Yeonseung couldnt shake off this kind of prejudice!

Having seen Illaphael face defeat so many times, Choi Yeonseung had naturally lost his confidence in the angel.

...Are you asking this because you dont trust me? Illaphael asked cautiously. Strangely, her voice was quavering slightly.

How can that be? Youre the household member of the angel constellation. I believe in you.

...!

Hearing that, Illaphael was thrilled for a moment, but she quickly turned her head, trying to hide her expression.

Is that angel okay? Antony whispered from the side. Contrary to her reputation, shes actually a bit... She seems pitiful.

***

[The rampaging nightmare demons draw on the power of the realm!]

[The nightmare demon draws out your desires.]

[The nightmare demon attempts to absorb your power!]

Choi Yeonseung didnt shy away from the nightmare demons. In this situation, there was no need to engage in troublesome battles or chases.

The nightmare demons seemed to think that they could defeat Choi Yeonseung with Energy Drain if they got close enough to him, but...

-Star Absorption Method!

A nightmare demon was charging at Choi Yeonseung with a fierce expression, but he was astonished when Choi Yeonseung caught him by the wrist.

The demon felt his power being siphoned by the human.

-Origin of the Celestial Palm!

Choi Yeonseung used the magic power absorbed from the nightmare demon to fire Origin of the Celestial Palm.

With a thunderous sound, the nightmare demon fell to the ground.

Next! Move quickly, Antony! We have to kill at least one more.

Uh, Choi Yeonseung?

?

There are hunters collapsed here...

Antony pointed to the hunters with a bewildered expression. They were the ones who had entered the dungeon first and gone missing.

They lay on the ground, their appearance haggart.

It was clear that they had been caught up in the dungeon explosion and violently scattered here and there.

Cant we just ignore them? Should we abandon them? asked Antony.

...Theyre still alive, so we cant do that. Gather them up, Choi Yeonseung replied while frowning.

Antony grumbled but didnt say anything else.

Choi Yeonseung felt uncomfortable to just leave the fallen hunters behind and move on.

Over there as well. Bring him over.

Alright.

Antony also brought the other hunters. Then he suddenly thought of something and asked, By the way, why am I the only one moving them?

Who does the Icarus clan belong to?

...You.

Exactly. Now get moving.

...

Antony gritted his teeth and vowed to later become a majority shareholder of Dragon Industry.

Of course, Choi Yeonseung didnt make Antony pick up all the hunters because he was too lazy to do it himself. He was checking the condition of the fallen hunters one by one. Antony was a typical damage dealer, so couldnt play the role of a healer.

Theyre extremely malnourished.

Choi Yeonseung wasnt a healer, but he had the power of martial arts and the power of a constellation.

-Goddess Medical Treatment...

Choi Yeonseung tried using the healing skill he had received from the goddess of balance, but he failed to cast it properly and started shaking.

[Eternal Regeneration has regenerated your body.]

Choi Yeonseung used his own healing power to recover from the after-effects of the failed spell and replenished his magic power by concentrating internal energy.

In any case, they somehow managed to deal with the most urgent matter.

[The Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons reports that Hunter Han Sehas side has successfully dealt with the situation.]

Thank you for this.

Coincidentally, he also received good news from the other side.

Choi Yeonseung had been worried when the dungeon had exploded because he had been thrown far away from the entrance, so far away that he couldnt even see the city in the distance.

Ugh, please...

!

One of the hunters woke up and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Choi Yeonseung turned his head and asked, Whats going on? Do you have something to say? If theres something we need to be careful about

...Something to eat...

...
