Chapter 353: Star, the Planet Celestial (3)

Sangwon, who once ruled almost the entire galaxy as ‘Tai Wei Yuan’ of the , was now lost in his deep grudge.

‘I... I’m not someone who should be locked up in a place like this!’

Unable to accept reality, Sangwon writhed and tried his hardest to escape from the Bloodless Hell when he was locked up in it. However, with Divine Steel shackles attached to every part of him, moving was essentially impossible.

No, he actually couldn’t even feel that he was moving because the Bloodless Hell erased all of its prisoners’ physical senses. They couldn’t even see, hear, or feel. They wouldn’t notice any physical changes either despite having their divine powers sealed away.

Celestials ruled the law of the world with powerful resolve, and the only distinction between them was whether or not they embraced that as part of their large concept. However, once they lost their dominance and resolve, they felt as powerless as an empty-handed human stranded alone in the middle of a vast ocean.

To make things worse, he couldn’t even feel any external stimulant. He couldn’t help but instinctively assume that he would disappear unless he forced himself to keep thinking. Unfortunately, he couldn’t even feel himself writhing no matter how hard he tried to. Hence, while going through a series of emotions, his spite eventually faded away.

‘No! This can’t be! I am ‘Tai Wei Yuan’! The great king of the !’

Denial.

‘Twilight, you bastard! You bastard put me in this misery! Once I get out of here, I’m going to tear you to pieces!’

Anger.

‘... T-this is just a strategic withdrawal. I’m simply taking a break.’

Bargaining.

‘But what if this doesn’t end as just a break...? What will happen then?’L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

Depression, and lastly...

‘W-what am I supposed to do? Should I just accept my reality?’

... acceptance. At some point, Sangwon began to worry about his future—no, he wasn’t even certain if he had a future anymore. Nevertheless, he didn’t let go of his lingering feelings because of his pride, which he still had but was fading away with time.

After who knew how long...

Tap, tap...

‘What is it?’

The noises coming from afar woke Sangwon up from his deep slumber. He looked up—no, he felt as if he raised his head. He was in the BloodlessHell, which caused all light and sounds to get lost in the darkness. It shouldn’t be even the slightest bit noisy.

‘Am I hearing things now?’

Arrrrrrgggh.

‘... No!’ Sangwon’s gaze sharpened. He definitely heard something moving and screaming. Something was happening in this Bloodless Hell.

‘Who is it? Did someone unlock the shackles?’

Sangwon had no idea how they could unlock the shackles, but it didn’t matter. All he cared about was that it was possible even in this wretched place.

Judging from the screaming, the escaping prisoner seemed to be harming the other prisoners, but Sangwon believed that he could neutralize the threat as soon as his shackles were unlocked. Although he was trapped here, he used to be the king of the , leading numerous .

“Here! I’m here! Untie me! You’ll be handsomely rewarded if you untie me! Come on! Untie me quickly!” Sangwon yelled at the top of his lungs.

He didn’t know if anyone could hear him since this place had no air for the sounds to course through, but he didn’t care.

Paah!

Shortly after, something similar to a will o’ wisps lit up near him.

“Yes, it’s here! It’s right—!” Sangwon’s face brightened up and welcomed the person but abruptly stopped.

‘Richardus?’

Sangwon didn’t expect to see him running toward him in this place, making him naturally doubt the man was the real Richardus. The Richardus that Sangwon knew was very gentle. Although he fought like a berserker, he put his effort into acting like a king on normal days.

The one in front of Sangwon was completely different. He was covered in blood, and his eyes were emitting blood-red light. His mouth was wide open, displaying his gleaming fangs to the world. They looked as sharp as a beast’s.

Krrrrrrr...

Richardus even growled like a hungry beast. Sangwon wondered why Richardus was in the Bloodless Hell, but considering how he was behaving, Sangwon immediately realized it would be dangerous even for him to interact with Richardus right now.

It didn’t take long for him to notice multiple ghosts floating around Richardus. Suo Chao, Wu Yong, Lu Junyi, Liu Tang... They were almost unrecognizable because their Divine Classes had been destroyed, but they were definitely the demonic Celestials whom Chang-Sun had sealed!

Sangwon finally understood what Richardus was doing—Celestial Cannibalism, the forbidden ancient ceremony of taking a fellow Celestial’s ability by eating them. The barbaric ceremony was only held in very ancient times, but Richardus was now doing it to his colleagues.

“Shit!” Sangwon resisted as hard as he could, thinking he could also end up being prey.

Roaaar!

However, Richardus didn’t miss the tastiest prey in this place.

“My Guardian already allowed me. In fact, my Guardian told me to be closer to him,” Jun Tao said firmly.

“But the Triad...!”

“I want to form an alliance. It doesn’t matter if we become part of the . Besides, I heard that the has already formed an alliance with the Illuminati.” Jun Tao didn’t look as if he was going to back down.

‘This man is serious.’ Geum-Gyu scratched the back of his head, chuckling dumbfoundedly.

The Divine Bell Overlord was once called one of the three strongest Overlords with the Immortal and Thousand-Eyed Overlords, so it was quite surprising for him so be so submissive.

‘Well, maybe it’s only natural,’ Geum-Gyu thought.

Jun Tao likey went through a lot of internal conflicts the past three weeks. One could only have the desire to defeat another if they were on similar levels. An unbridgeable difference in levels would only result in awe, just like all people on Earth felt.

“It should be possible, but I don’t really have the authority to give you a definite answer... I would have to get my team leader’s permission first. Would you like to go with me?” Geum-Gyu offered.

“Can... I do that?”

“I happen to have reports to deliver. Let’s go.” Geum-Gyu gestured at Jun Tao.

Becoming noticeably nervous, Jun Tao quietly nodded and gulped. Geum-Gyu found this big man cute now.

‘I feel like I can hear his heart pounding.’ Geum-Gyu chuckled, heading to the room where Chang-Sun and Carl would be talking right now.

Now close to their destination, Geum-Gyu could see...

“Please! Let us meet the mighty god just once!”

“Please give us the chance to meet the god in person!”

... not only the Korean, Chinese, and Japanese survivors of the Player volunteer army but people from all around the world. Too many fanatics were already swarming in front of Chang-Sun’s office.

“I’m sorry. I tried my best to keep it under wraps, but the news must have gotten leaked somewhere.”

Click.

Chang-Sun frowned a little as he watched Carl put down a teacup in front of him. It wasn’t that he didn’t like the scent of the tea.

Carl was obviously holding in his laughter, which only annoyed him even more. Nevertheless, he couldn’t. After all, he became a Planet Celestial earlier than he originally planned thanks to him.
