Chapter 342: Star, Den of the Evil Dragon (6)
“Hye-Bin, why are you here...? The White Tiger Clan as well?!”
Before Woo Yeong-Geun could even finish his sentence, the Sword of Ohsung Clan Players had already surrounded Yeong-Geun and Woo Hye-Bin. The other Korean Players glared at the White Tiger Clan Players.
“We don’t seem welcome here.” Seo Jeong-Gwon scratched the back of his head as he let out a long yawn.
He already saw this coming, though. After all, the White Tiger Clan was currently under the suspicion of being a group of demonic beings.
“Why are you here? Isn’t the White Tiger Clan supposed to be in detention?” Yeong-Geun grew vigilant as soon as he recognized them. He didn’t hesitate to blatantly display his willingness to use his sword if necessary.
Jeong-Gwon wasn’t the type to just take hostility quietly, though. “Why? Should we not have come? I can’t believe you’re treating your reinforcements poorly.”
“I don’t need backups that can turn into problems.”
“Hey, Woo, you sound awfully disrespectful.”
“Then you should have done a better job managing your people,” Yeong-Geun scoffed.
“You’re starting to get really annoying. Do I have to keep listening to you?”
The conflict between Yeong-Geun and Jeong-Gwon intensified, causing the other White Tiger Clan Players and the Korean force to behave aggressively as well.
“Uncle, wait! Let me expla—!” Hye-Bin stepped in between Yeong-Geun and Jeong-Gwon, thinking this would turn into a huge fight at the rate this was going.
“Hye-Bin, I don’t know what you heard from them, but you’re not in any position to speak right now,” Yeong-Geun firmly said.
People called Yeong-Geun a fool for his niece because he had always had a soft spot for her, but not right now.
However, the same went for Hye-Bin. “What do you mean I’m not in a position to speak? I said I’ll explain! You’ve misunderstood the situation, uncle!”
“Misunderstood?”
“Yes! They’re all Mister Chang-Sun’s followers now! The people fighting over there are his subordinates!”
“Followers? Subordinates?”
What in the world Hye-Bin was talking about? The Chang-Sun whom Yeong-Geun knew had the same title as the old emperor from the past, but he was still a human like him. Why would Hye-Bin describe him as if he had become a Celestial?
“She’s right,” someone said from behind Yeong-Geun.
Yeong-Geun quickly turned back. Upon realizing who it was, he bowed. “Long time no see, Mr. Council President.”
Carl Malone lightly waved his hand, eliminating the tension between the two factions. With a gentle smile, he said, “It has certainly been a while, Mr. Woo. The last time we met was six years ago in Paris, right?”
“We met in San Francisco a year ago during my trip.”
“Ah, is that so? Hahaha, it seems my old age has made me forgetful.”
“Mr. Council president, what you said earlier...” Yeong-Geun trailed off.
“Just like your niece said, they are all under Mr. Lee Chang-Sun—no, under ‘Divine Twilight.’ The White Tiger Clan is now his .”
Yeong-Geun’s eyes widened as he turned to look at Jeong-Gwon, who was smacking his lips in disappointment since this meant he could never fight Chang-Sun again. At that moment, Yeong-Geun realized that Jeong-Gwon—no, all the White Tiger Clan members had changed. They used to exude insidious auras, but they seemed more ferocious and sharp now.
[The Celestial ‘Nameless GIant’ is surprised! She says that they actually do have a different Guardian now!]
[The Celestial ‘Nameless Giant’ is shocked by the fact that the Celestial whom she believed to have died has resurrected!]
Ueopwang’s reaction made Yeong-Geum finally believe them, but the part about ‘resurrection’ caught his attention.
‘Wait, if so...?’ Yeong-Geun felt as if all the questions he had for Chang-Sun just got answered.
He had always been wary of Chang-Sun. His composure, combat skills, speed of getting stronger... Even if he tried to assume Chang-Sun was simply talented, everything about him still seemed abnormal. However, all of it would make sense if he used to be a Celestial.
As if to further convince him, he could smell Chang-Sun’s strong scent from Hye-Bin.
[The Celestial ‘Nameless Giant’ has purchased information about the Player ‘Woo Hye-Bin’ from the !]
[Displaying the information.]
[Woo Hye-Bin]
The apostle of the Celestial ‘Divine Twilight.’ The Society has also blessed her for her innate talent.
“...!” The word ‘apostle’ caught Yeong-Geun’s attention.
[The Celestial ‘Nameless Giant’ chuckles dumbfoundedly for not realizing that her apostle candidate had already been snatched away.]
“When did you...?” Yeong-Geun trailed off.
“If you’re talking about me becoming his apostle, I got appointed right before I came here.” Hye-Bin’s gaze softened, recalling the conversation she had with Chang-Sun before they arrived.
“You... want me to become your apostle?” Hye-Bin asked in disbelief.
“Why? Do you not want to? I won’t force you.”
“N-no, that’s not it!”
“What’s the problem, then?”
“You have many others to choose from, like Eun-Seo unnie and Geum-Gyu oppa, so... Why me?” Hye-Bin’s gaze fell to the ground, unable to meet Chang-Sun’s eyes.
“Eun-Seo has been chosen by the owl, and Geum-Gyu by the serpent. You don’t have a Guardian yet.”
“That’s true, but still...!”
Hye-Bin couldn’t bring herself to accept Chang-Sun’s proposal. Although she did idolize Chang-Sun, becoming his apostle was an entirely different matter. An apostle held the highest rank among a Celestial’s followers and priests, so she couldn’t help but think that she didn’t deserve such a position.
“You’re the best candidate to become my apostle. You understand me the best and have learned a lot from me, so you’ll be good at compiling my doctrines,” Chang-Sun explained.
└I heard that the Giant warriors and monsters on the Ghost Devil Horses are all the Terrible’s subordinates. Are they really?
└If they are, then that’s hella scary...
└Agreed.
└The Overlords who have been sassy around the Terrible probably want to go hide in rat holes and never come back out now.
―Why do they look like they could crush the Overlords’ heads like watermelons...? Are they Undead?
Everyone watched Jin Prezia, Sinmara, and Chang-Sun’s other subordinates intently as they slaughtered the draconic army. Their brilliant performance gave people enough hope to eliminate their fear of the Dragon-type monsters.
―Hang in there!
―We can’t do much from here, but we’ll at least pray for you.
―Mr. Terrible. T.T Please save us. T.T.
Every person on Earth stopped what they were doing and looked up in the sky like followers asking for salvation from their god.

[The wills in the Server ‘Earth’ have unified and now belong to the Player ‘Lee Chang-Sun.’]
[The other Celestials’ influence on the Server ‘Earth’ is gradually decreasing.]
...
[The Divine Class of the Celestial ‘Divine Twilight’ has increased!]
Risking the loss of his vital force, Carl tried to achieve three things. The first was to spread the news as much as he could to give the world the impression that the ‘Den of the Evil Dragon’ crisis scale was global even though it was still just regional.
The second was to imprint into people’s minds the image of Chang-Sun leading his army in a punitive expedition against the Dragon-type monsters. In doing so, Carl established Chang-Sun’s presence. Lastly, he tried to synchronize Chang-Sun with the will of the civilization named Earth, making him its sole Celestial.
Carl and Avalokitesvara pushed through with their plan despite the risks it posed because they had to increase Chang-Sun’s Divine Class as much as they could if they wanted to fight Sun Wukong and the others.
No, even if it wasn’t part of their plan, Carl would’ve still done it to bring hope to people. Decades after Dungeons and Gates opened up in their world, coexisting with monsters had become part of everyone’s daily lives. Hence, Carl wished to tell them that they no longer had to live thinking they were in constant danger and could die at any moment.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly.
[The Divine Class of the Celestial ‘Divine Twilight’ has increased!]
[Current status: Civilization Celestial.]
* * *
Chang-Sun grew stronger every second, his Faith accumulating and increasing his divine power at an insane rate. Being revered made him feel mind-blowing delight, but he remained level-headed. Having experienced omnipotence and omniscience, this feeling was no longer enough to affect his composure.
More importantly, his enemy was right in front of him, giving him no room for distractions. Even at this moment, he was holding back his boiling anger.
There was no knowing if Richardus was aware of what Chang-Sun was thinking, but Richardus just acted as if he finally reunited with a close friend after so long.
“Long time no see.” Richardus waved.
Chang-Sun found it disgusting. Holding back from cussing out loud, he asked, “Where is Crom Cruach?”
She fell into dormancy after saving their comrades from danger, so Chang-Sun was yet to locate her.
“Hmm? That’s strange. I thought you had already seen her. Did you not recognize her?” Richardus smiled enigmatically.
Chang-Sun’s expression darkened. “Wait...!”
“She’s the Dragon Monarch, and...”
Tap―!
Five new entities appeared around Chang-Sun and Richardus, all looking like replicas of each other. They were all five meters tall, had Dragon-like appearances, and had grimoires in their hand.
They were scowling at Chang-Sun, seemingly about to devour him.
