Chapter 255

As the two people were holding each other’s hands, a great change was taking place within the household members of the angel constellation who were fighting in the sky.

[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ has blessed you!]

[The power to foresee the future guides you!]

“...?!!”

The household members who were currently fighting were astonished. They had received a buff, but more than that, they were surprised by the sudden appearance of another party.

Why...?

Why did the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead get involved?

“Illaphael, what happened?”

“I also don’t know, but it’s none of our business! Focus on the fight at hand!”

“Yes! I’m sorry.”

The angel Illaphael didn’t understand it.

The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead had been on Earth since the early days of the gate, but her presence wasn’t that impactful as she didn’t have many household members or subordinates. Moreover, she maintained a neutral and defensive attitude.

Her presence was bound to be overshadowed by other active constellations.

Didn’t the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons, whom they served, accept numerous hunters as subordinates to fight against the evil god constellations?

In comparison, the goddess of balance had kept pretty quiet in that regard. Considering all of that, why did such a constellation suddenly come forward and bless them?

There had been times when a constellation gave blessings to the household members of other constellations on a whim, but this was a bit unexpected.The goddess of balance wasn’t that type of constellation...

‘It has to be that. I’m impressed with the goddess’ decision.’

Illaphael came up with his own explanation and was convinced.

The Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons set out to liberate greedy and ignorant humans. It was clear that the goddess of balance sympathized with their master’s holy intentions. She was afraid to openly express her support, so she helped them like this.

[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ is puzzled.]

-Master, that constellation must’ve been influenced by your will!

[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ says it would be nice if that were the case, but it is hard to believe because he has never talked to the ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead.’]

-Why is that important? In any case, we’ve already been empowered and it’s our strength. I’ll take down our enemies!

[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ is pleased with your will. He is giving you permission to fight!]

The angel constellation wasn’t an evil god constellation, but he was nonetheless fierce and aggressive. The household members rampaged even more ferociously after they received the blessing from the goddess of balance.

“!”

“This...!”

Those who received the blessing could immediately tell what kind of power it was. They could predict the future, their foresight ranging from one to five seconds. Even six seconds were possible.

The powerful beings from the Abyss could roughly predict what would happen based on their accumulated experience, but... This blessing allowed them to predict the future with more accuracy and clarity.

It was truly an unimaginable power. The household members never imagined that the power of the goddess of balance was of this magnitude.

‘Was it this great?’

‘Why weren’t there any rumors about a constellation with this type of power? Are the constellations that eccentric?’

‘If the constellation doesn’t want many household members, then of course rumors won’t spread.’

‘But it’s an amazing ability.’

After receiving the blessing, both the household members and the subordinates of the angel constellation suppressed their enemies. The subordinates of the collector constellation were confused by the sudden increase in the power of their enemies.

-Magic Sword Continuous Hellfire, Wing Incision Curse!

Amelia drew her sword, cut the dragon’s throat with great precision, and cast a spell to burn its body.

She wasn’t a martial artist, but as an A-grade hunter, she possessed tremendous power even when it came to close combat. She had cast various spells on herself and her weapons and slashed her enemies one by one.

Right then, one of the monsters that was about to attack Han Sehui crashed down. Han Sehui nodded in gratitude, and Amelia responded with a short nod.

“...?”

“Is there something down below?”

Shake shake.

Han Sehui shook her head. She thought she saw some familiar faces below. However, she thought about it and realized it was impossible for them to be here.

“The goddess is very generous.”

“Of course. It’s just one of her many virtues.”

Choi Yeonseung and Adaquaniel were having a heartfelt conversation.

Whittaker was puzzled by how intimate and warm the atmosphere was between the two of them.

‘Is she Choi Yeonseung’s lover?’

Come to think of it, there would’ve been nothing strange about them being in a romantic relationship, since he brought her from South Korea. Furthermore, she didn’t have a human-like appearance. It seemed plausible that Choi Yeonseung would fall in love with her.

‘Oh my...’

Choi Yeonseung had always kept to himself and learned martial arts while other hunters drank, did drugs, and called models for crazy parties. This made Whittaker wonder if Choi Yeonseung actually had any human needs, but that would’ve made him more friendly if it had been the case.

“If you are going to find a treasure, I’ll join you...” said Whittaker.

“Don’t worry, I’ll call you when I find it.”

Choi Yeonseung said that only to appease Whittaker.

Whittaker never would’ve thought that Choi Yeonseung had come looking for a holy relic. Now that Whittaker had entered London with such difficulty, he would surely get his hands on the treasures of the constellation!

“Hey, Edward. Be honest. How could you not know about any treasures? Doesn’t really add up, does it?”

“I-I really don’t know. First of all, I’m not even a hunter...”

“Do you want to see your family die? Eh?”

“You madman...”

Illeya, who had been listening from the sidelines, stopped Whittaker.

“Stop it.”

“P-Please take this guy with you,” begged Edward

Illeya reassured him, “Don’t worry. I’m the good cop.”

“I... I see.”

“He’s the bad cop.”

“That’s right...?”

“So tell me the truth.”

“????”

At this point, Edward realized that things were gradually getting stranger. The A-grade hunter wasn’t the only crazy person here?

“What nonsense... I really don’t know! And also, what kind of cops blatantly say which one is good and which one is bad?!”

It was quite common to interrogate someone using the carrot and the stick. One person was in charge of being the good cop, and the other was in charge of being the bad cop, but...

What was the point of doing it if they revealed their strategy to Edward?

Illeya had a stern expression after hearing these words that didn’t make sense to her.

“If you keep doing this, you’ll leave me with no choice but to use a method that I’ve seen in Korean movies.”

“W... W... What are you going to do??”

He didn’t know what movie she had seen, but Edward was instinctively enveloped by fear.

***

‘The energy of the holy relic...’

Unlike other household members, Choi Yeonseung possessed a very special ability.

The reason... It was that Choi Yeonseung was a constellation. He had awakened the power of existence and knew how to use it! Thanks to that, he could sense the power of existence from a holy relic and subsequently discover its location.

‘It’s not here either... Um.’

Choi Yeonseung sensed the faint aura of the power of existence and gradually moved towards it.

Adaquaniel, who was next to him, said with a respectful look, “I can’t believe you can find the holy relics that the collector constellation worked so hard to hide. You really are amazing.”

“No, you deserve all the credit because you came up with such a plan.”

-Why don’t the two of you just stick together?

The goddess of sloth interjected.

They didn’t come here to date, but they were so warm with each other that they almost caught fire. She wouldn’t have been surprised if they started rolling around naked with each other.

Adaquaniel suddenly exclaimed, “Ah.”

“?”

“It looks like my master will borrow my body for a while and descend.”

“...Huh?”

[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ has appeared after borrowing Adaquaniel’s body!]

The color of Adaquaniel’s eyes changed before Choi Yeonseung could get an answer. It was amazing how she felt like a different being despite everything else remaining the same. Her body radiated greater strength than before. No matter how hard the goddess tried to hide it, the subtle power of existence made the difference in strength apparent.

‘Isn’t she bad at hiding things?’

She seemed a bit clumsy in the eyes of Choi Yeonseung, who still hadn’t been caught as a constellation.

Either way, the goddess shook her head and said gracefully, “I assume that the search for the holy relic isn’t going that well? I’m here to help, Hunter Choi Yeonseung.”

“Uh...”

Choi Yeonseung’s voice trailed off. Perhaps it was because she had just been helping in the sky above London, but the goddess of balance didn’t seem to know what he and Adaquaniel had been doing.

Adaquaniel spoke to the goddess in a soft voice.

-Master. In fact, Hunter Choi Yeonseung is smoothly locating the holy relics with his tracking skills.

“...”

The goddess’ face was tinged with embarrassment.

She had naturally assumed that they wouldn’t be able to find the power of existence, so she descended with great force...
