Chapter 354

Chapter 354

All the constellations present were confused, and the goddess of sloth was the first one to snap out of the state of chaos.

Her kingdom had once flourished and she had risen to the top of the rankings in the Abyss; no one had more experience than her.

-Successor, dont be deceived!How can you believe such absurd words?

!

[The Manipulator of Dreams and Desires calls for the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead to come to her senses!]

The manipulator constellation shouted at the goddess because she couldnt just stand by and watch. She couldve just said something like What constellation would buy into something like that? but at this moment, there were two constellations who were likely to fall for such trickery.

If one was Choi Yeonseung, the other was the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead.

Thinking about the twisted and perverse desires that the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead has for the incarnation of training, she might actually be deceived by this!

As expected of the manipulator constellation, she assessed the situation calmly and rationally.

[The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead realizes this and becomes angry!]

[She is making an appearance!]

Goddess...?!

The goddess of balance took action before Choi Yeonseung could stop her.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

Given that sending down a clone consumed an enormous amount of power of existence, it was evident how serious this situation was.

But to come forward like this...

Shes really angry!

The goddess of balance had to be livid because of this constellation who claimed to be her child. This absurd claim stained her reputation as a constellation!

-Its a bit different from that, but I dont have time to explain it right now. Focus, Successor!

The goddess of sloth cried out urgently to Choi Yeonseung, urging him to stay focused. The opponent was also a constellation, one that had mindlessly abused their power of existence. This made the opponent rather dangerous, for even constellations feared those who only lived in the moment and didnt care about their future.

Such an adversary would inflict the most amount of damage on a constellation.

Finally, the goddess of balance, whom Choi Yeonseung hadnt seen in a long time, appeared. Her expression couldnt be seen clearly because she was blindfolded, but her intense presence attested to her anger.

Mo...

-Shut up!

The goddess of balance suddenly vanished and appeared behind the opponent. She had a scale in one hand and a sword in the other. She swung her sword, which was infused with her power of existence, at the angel of martial arts, tearing through space.

...Why dont you listen to me?! Im being serious!

...

[...]

-...

The constellations were astonished. The angel of martial arts overwhelmed the goddess of balance with a single blow! More than that, they had done it with the exact same move!

The angel of martial arts had disappeared and reappeared behind the goddess of balance, and after subduing her, they shouted, Listen to me! Theres no time!

The goddess of balance looked like she had completely lost her mind. The attack itself was simple, but it was impressive when taking into consideration that the goddess of balance could see the future.

It was truly unimaginable that someone could get around that power and completely overpower the goddess of balance.

I also have the power to see the future. Mother, how can you attack me? Stop it! Father doesnt like when you act rashly like this!

...

[...]

-...Is she dead?

The goddess of balance had already lost her mind once, and it seemed like it happened once again.

Now!

Choi Yeonseung finally made a move. This skill was different from the teleportation of the goddess of balance; it was a much more dazzling and unpredictable move... But to his surprise, the angel of martial arts moved in exactly the same way.

Even the attack itself was the same!

Origin of the Celestial Fist?!

Choi Yeonseung was stunned by the fact that his opponent mimicked his Origin of the Celestial Fist. This wasnt a matter of strength, but a matter of training. How could someone train and use the Origin of the Celestial Fist like this?

Isnt this enough? Father, listen to me! Mother is hopeless right now!

I dont have a child... I think.

Of course! Im from the future! shouted the angel of martial arts in the voice of a little girl. Despite her childish appearance, she possessed formidable power. She had even managed to restrain the goddess of balance.

Choi Yeonseung decided to compromise.

Alright, my daughter... Uh, or son? Maybe you dont have a gender? In any case, can you let go of your mother now? Shes actually a good person.

Wasnt it great for their country to accommodate their tourists like that?

[The Monkey King wants to be your household member!]

The household member left behind by the angel of martial arts bowed his head the moment he saw Choi Yeonseung.

I guess Ill have to send him back to the realm first.

Choi Yeonseung paused as he watched the monster disappear. Come to think of it, Hwang Gyeongryong would probably get scared if he saw a first-generation monster like the Monkey King

***

He stopped it!

As the news of the victory spread, the hunters participating couldnt help rejoicing. It had been a dangerous raid in which nobody couldve let their guards down for even a second.

It was surprising that Choi Yeonseung had made short work of the Monkey King, but the intervention of the constellation had been the most shocking part.

The hunters had been worried that something might go wrong or that Choi Yeonseung might go missing, but fortunately, he had returned safely.

Hey! Why do you look so gloomy? Are you really doing this for money?

The hunters shouted at the Chinese officials standing by next to them. In response, the Chinese officials silently pointed at the city.

Seeing this, the hunters cleared their throats.

Umm Hmm

Cough. Ummm

The hunters apologized once, but then they started acting shamelessly.

Hey, its not our fault. We did our best.

Thats right. There were no deaths, right?

They couldnt have made it this far as hunters if they had enough of a conscience to feel sorry about things like this. If anything, they actually became angry.

Hunter Choi Yeonseung has risked his life to prevent damage, and yet youre staring at the sky all dejected and stuff without thanking him... Are you even human?

Do the Chinese not know what gratitude is?

...Its not that were not grateful. Its just that the state of the city is...

These days, you cant live an eco-friendly green life even if you have money. This is a great thing! Be grateful!

The hunters at the scene became angry and pressured the officials to accept the situation. They were afraid that the Chinese government would blame the hunters led by Choi Yeonseung, so they decided to strike first.

However, they were overthinking the whole situation. Given the current circumstances, the Chinese government wouldnt be able to blame the hunters. There were too many people involved.

They came all the way to another country and participated in an A-grade monster raid despite the chaotic situation. Thus, rebuking the hunters was tantamount to committing suicide in the international scene.

It doesnt make sense... muttered Armas as he scanned his surroundings. It was amazing that they had escaped from the clutches of a constellation, but he still couldnt believe that Choi Yeonseung had defeated such a powerful monster so easily.

Its because of martial arts, which are stronger in this area...

Yeah, thats the case.

Armas was seriously troubled. He wondered if he should start learning martial arts. He had thought that it was ridiculous for an A-grade hunter to bother with such a weak skill, but his impression had changed after seeing the low-rated hunters using martial arts.

If he learned at least a few martial arts skills, wouldnt he be able to use them in combination with his magic?

Its not a bad idea. Besides, I heard that Dragon Industry is distributing martial arts books.

Perhaps due to his compassionate heart as the pioneer of martial arts, Choi Yeonseung was surprisingly willing to reveal a lot of information about martial arts.

During the first generation of raids, nobody was willing to share information about magic, which meant that evolving as a magic user was terribly slow.

On that note, present-day martial artists were blessed.

Armas, were having a meeting.

Ah. Of course, I should go.

One might expect that hunters would collapse after a raid and that they would want to rest right away, but that was rarely the case. The post-raid rewards were so precious that hunters would jump straight into the meetings.

Even if they were on the verge of passing out due to exhaustion, the hunters held on to the end and made sure to get the rewards before collapsing.

Why is that guy coming?

He didnt participate, right?

On the way, Armas saw hunters whispering and staring at him, but he ignored them. Critique was temporary, but money was eternal.

Since Armas had participated in the first raid and was part of the offensive, he was entitled to a part of the rewards. Of course, his rewards would be insignificant compared to what Choi Yeonseung would receive. After all, he was the one who had contributed the most in the raid.

Even so, the Monkey King was a ridiculously valuable monster, which meant that even a small part of the rewards would be very profitable.

Besides, hes a unique monster. There might be some cores on top of the rewards...!

Theres no Monkey King though? His body is gone.

...Dont lie! Armas shouted angrily.
