Chapter 209: Star, the Illuminati (5)

‘He’s busy,’ Chang-Sun thought.

Tian Shi Yuan was a hardliner Celestial within the . Compared to Zi Wei Yuan and Tai Wei Yuan, the two other Three Enclosures, Tian Shi Yuan often operated in public. That was how he garnered the biggest number of subordinates and soldiers among the Three Enclosures.

Most of the notorious incidents in that were known to have been done by the Celestials happened under Tian Shi Yuan’s orders. This one was no different. Zi Wei Yuan and Tai Wei Yuan showed no reactions, and even the Twenty-Eight Mansions stayed quiet. It was just Tian Shi Yuan. Following his lead, Thirty-Six Heavenly Spirits and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends watched Chang-Sun as well.

Yool had warned Chang-Sun that if he used [Execution Sword] right now, the Celestials would notice what the was up to something and discover that the ‘Divine Twilight’ had resurrected. Yool had also advised Chang-Sun to prepare for their siege without attracting too much attention since doing so would be dangerous for Chang-Sun and the hadn’t finished their preparations to fight . Chang-Sun was well aware of those facts.

‘But I can’t just let them all go like this.’

From Chang-Sun’s perspective, the people besieging him right now were all fishes jumping into a net. The was a very big in , so many other and Celestials followed it. The followers of those small fries were the ones involved in this.

‘If only I can capture Tian Shi Yuan here.’

Upon the [Execution Sword]’s activation, Chang-Sun’s mind palace was used as a courtroom, and the Celestial caught by it was forced to go through a trial using a Player and their Channelings as mediums. Depending on how he used it, Chang-Sun thought he could make Tian Shi Yuan stand trial if he could capture one of his followers.

‘Even if things don’t go according to the plan, it’ll still be worth it if I can just get rid some of Tian Shi Yuan’s subordinates.’ Chang-Sun licked his parched lips, feeling his greed grow. ‘The problem is how I can blindfold these Celestials.’

[The Celestial ‘Tsunami Bringer’ says that he will make a formal complaint about this later, but for now, he wonders how you will overcome this obstacle.]

[The Celestial ‘Primordial Evil Dragon’ advises you to take her hand if you want to escape from the danger.]

...

[The Celestial ‘Taurus’ promises you that if you swear to become his subordinate, he will not only forgive what you have done with the Celestial ‘Gemini’ but also protect you from the Society ‘Purple Star Astrology.’]

...

[A significant number of Celestials have offered to become your shield.]

[The Celestial ‘A Good Season to Hunt’ pulls her hair out, saying that too many Celestials are interested in you.]

[The Celestial ‘World-Encircling Serpent’ comments that it is about time the Celestial ‘A Good Season to Hunt’ gets used to it.]

Fearing the , some Celestials backed off. However, some Celestials offered their protection instead, pretending to be generous. ‘Taurus’ and ‘Aquarius’ even offered Chang-Sun to join the .

Jacque Valentine, who was sitting across from Chang-Sun, seemed willing to help Chang-Sun if he needed it, but the cost of his help would surely be high. Satan didn’t do charity, and the same applied to the Celestials of the executives at the other train compartments. Although they complained about the tyranny of the , no one tried to stop what it was trying to do.

Things could have been different if Chang-Sun were their subordinate, but he had nothing to do with them. Likewise, the Celestials and the Players who followed their commands had no reason to go through the trouble of coming into political conflict with the .

In fact, some Celestials could think this was for the better. From the beginning, they had been trying to test Chang-Sun through Satan’s trial, but they didn’t have to go through the trouble if the Celestials did it for them.

[The Celestial ‘Calamity Tiger’ is gritting his teeth because his is forcing him to make a decision. He looks at you with love and hatred.]

‘Well, if they want to know that badly...’

Chang-Sun naturally had no intention to stand down from this fight. Why would he miss such a good opportunity? No, even if it wasn’t, he would never run away from a fight.

‘... then I’ll show them.’ Chang-Sun smiled faintly.

“Hey.” The ‘Black Horse’ Shaka approached Chang-Sun, still frowning deeply. Shaka had always found joy in instilling fear into people, so he didn’t like Chang-Sun ignoring him. The more Shaka crumpled up his face, the more the tribal tattoos covering half his face distorted and made him look more menacing.

[The Celestial ‘Fire Rat Under Broad Daylight’ smacks his lips, wondering which part of you would be the tastiest!]

“Team L,” Chang-Sun said.

While observing the situation in fear of the train overturning because of the conflict between Chang-Sun and Shaka, Woo Hye-Bin, Shin Eun-Seo, and Shin Geum-Gyu turned their heads toward Chang-Sun’s call.

“Huh? Yes!”

“Yup!”

A pool of blinding light burst as Troy was pushed away, his blood spilling. Albeit with difficulty, Troy successfully managed to deflect Chang-Sun’s attack. However, he still looked the same as Shaka, who was helplessly lying on the ground.

[The Skill ‘Black Mountain King’s Second Claw’ has been activated!]

This time, Chang-Sun mixed and demonic energy using [Tiamat’s Snaggletooth]. Completely different from the sacred light from before, the dark light struck the top of Troy’s head. It was still light, but it devoured everything rather than brightening up the world.

Boom!

From the top of his head to his groin, a red vertical line was drawn over Troy.

Splash.

Bleeding profusely, Troy was cut in half and helplessly fell down on the ground. Over the past decades, these two demonic beings had made a fool out of the Council and Interpol, but they died in Chang-Sun’s hands before they could even do anything.

[The Celestial ‘Fire Rat Under Broad Daylight’ is stunned by his apostles’ death!]

[The Celestial ‘Fire Rat Under Broad Daylight’ hates you even more now.]

[The Celestials narrow their eyes upon witnessing your fight.]

The [Yuchang Sword] and [Tiamat’s Snaggletooth] were creating Double Sword Resonance. Straightening his grip on them, Chang-Sun detected the presence of people closing in on him.

[The Authority ‘Monster Excursion’ has been activated, detecting the enemies who wish to kill you!]

[The Authority ‘Mamushi Eye’ has been activated, showing the detected enemies’ locations!]

Heoju’s [Monster Excursion] and Jörmungandr’s [Mamushi Eye] were a very good match.

[Mamushi Eye]

Mamushi is a snake cruel enough to eat its own mother[1]. Just like the snake, you’ll be on high alert and gain a perfect all-around guard, allowing you to successfully run from your enemy or devour your prey in a flash.

· Skill level: 1

· Type: Active. Authority.

· Effect: Vantage Point Detection. Enemy Detection. Marking Weakness.

With those two Authorities, Chang-Sun would never miss his enemies, no matter how well they had hidden.

‘Within a one-kilometer radius, there are... around thirty people,’ Chang-Sun thought.

There were quite many of them, but that didn’t mean the fight would be difficult. However, the problem was that they were in the real world, not a Dungeon that disappeared once a Player had cleared it. Although Chang-Sun was just defending himself, killing so many people at once would still be dangerous. Shaka and Troy were just wanted criminals around the world, so Chang-Sun would actually receive rewards for killing them, not reprimanded.

‘They’re different since many of them wouldn’t be demonic beings. They just have the Celestials as their Guardians.’

Considering Chang-Sun had to subdue most of them, he was left with only one method.

‘Break through the barricade with overwhelming power.’ Chang-Sun clicked his tongue, putting on the iron mask on his waist.

Click―!

At the same time, he began to synchronize with Simon Magus, increasing his cognitive ability so he could calculate quicker.

「Hehehe... this is my chance to read [Prelati’s Spellbook] again.」

Along with Simon's laugh, Chang-Sun heard the sound of pages turning.

[The second chapter of ‘Prelati’s Spellbook’ has opened!]

The first chapter was radiátĭo. By maximizing the lethality of lightning energy, Chang-Sun could make his vicinity more advantageous for his allies. Meanwhile, the
