Chapter 404: Star, Conflicts (4)

[An unknown being has blessed the area, blocking all communication to the outside!]

[The Celestial Canis Major circles around the area curiously, wondering about the sudden change in it.]

[The Celestial Canis Minor says that the scent is familiar for some reason, sniffing.]

[The Celestial Ursus Major looks at you and bursts into anger!]

[The Celestial Aquarius observes you, watching what is going to happen.]

[The Celestial Gemini answers the call of the Celestial Aquarius.]

Sadalmelik took the bait. Wait, its the Celestial Gemini, not the Celestials Gemini? Chang-Sun wondered.

Ardrin Tigernmas was disrupting the connection in the area; thus, Alioth, Sirius, the Zodiacs, and the other Celestials were rendered unable to watch the conversation between her and Chang-Sun. Many of the Star Signs were anxious, but Sadalmeliks response made Chang-Sun certain that she was the one behind Alioth, making Chang-Sun chuckle.

However, there was one thing that was bothering Chang-Sun. Castor and Pollux had always appeared as the Celestial Geminus or the Celestials Gemini in the system messages; however, the Divine Name on the message just now had referred to the Celestial Gemini, as if both Celestials had merged.

How could that be? Is it?

Chang-Sun had been trying to drive a wedge between the two Celestials, so he speculated that his efforts had come to fruition. If he had deduced the situation correctly, that fact would be very useful to him.

Its getting interesting. Judging from the system messages, he seems to be working with Sadalmelik, Chang-Sun thought, deciding to make some adjustments to his plan.

Arin broke her long silence and asked, So you mean that Sister and Xerxes are trapped in the palaces dungeon, yes?

Chang-Sun nodded, saying, Theyre technically sealed.

Whatever! Are you seriously expecting me to believe that? Arin replied with a distrustful look. An old colleague, whom she had believed to have been dragged off by the Star Signs and killed, had come back to life but was speaking nonsense

Youve seen that Kali is working with me, so why do you still not believe me? Chang-Sun asked.

That is! Arin tried to refute him but bit her lower lip in the end. After a moment, she continued, It might be a trap to lure us out.

I had the information confirmed by Antares, so its definitely not a decoy, Chang-Sun said.

What? Confirmed by Antares? Wait! Arin exclaimed, her eyes widening in surprise.

Chang-Sun nodded pompously, saying, Thats right.

I cant believe that Antares betrayed ! Arin exclaimed.

I captured Antares What are you talking about? Chang-Sun asked with a frown, doubting what he had heard just now.

Haha. I think you guessed wrong this time, Twilight.Unravel the Unknown, Unleash the Unimaginable: N♡vεlB¡n.

Kalis giggle echoed next to Chang-Suns ear.

However, Arin was shocked for her own reason, asking, What? You captured Antares? Impossible!

Why is it impossible? Chang-Sun asked.

You used to be a wuss against Antares, Arin replied.

Would it kill you to put it nicely? Chang-Sun retorted, glaring at Arin.

Not caring about his reaction, Arin scoffed, saying, But its true.

The most annoying part is that I cant deny what you said, Chang-Sun said, gnashing his teeth because he had nothing to nitpick about in what Arin said.

Indeed, Chang-Sun had been forced to retreat in the end whenever he went against the Zodiacs because of Antares amazing proficiency in using Divine Toxins. Chang-Sun preferred to fight in close proximity and focused on offense, neglecting defense, so Antares had been his natural enemy. That was why Chang-Sun had tried to build immunity and resistance to poison as soon as he had returned to Earth. Despite his hard efforts, he had not reached the level of [Impervious Body]; considering that fact, Antares poison was very dangerous even for a Celestial.

Anyway, Antares is stuck in the Bottomless Void of the and is also being interrogated about [Gaias Curse], which he isnt spilling anything about right now, but Chang-Sun trailed off.

[The Celestial Divine Twilight has revealed a part of his Divine Class!]

The moment Chang-Sun revealed the Divine Class of his true form, which existed beyond his current body, Arin could no longer keep up her strong front. She turned pale, and her legs wobbled as if she was about to collapse onto the floor at that moment.

Arin was undoubtedly looking at Chang-Sun, but she was also seeing numerous other beings. Divine Twilight was standing behind Chang-Sun, alongside a Giant shrouded in bizarre light that was neither white nor black It was almost like a sunset. Beside them, Giants who were enveloped in fire seemed to be itching to emerge, and frozen Undead observed her with greedy eyes. Aside from them Countless soldiers stood by, awaiting Chang-Suns command.

[The Valhalla soldiers reveal their strong desire to fight!]

Would Arcadia survive if they all emerged from Chang-Suns shadow no, his soul? Arin thought that the chance of that would be zero, because the soldiers were all peerless. Chang-Sunno, Divine Twilightwas not the same person she once knew.

You The ! Arin exclaimed.

I absorbed it all. Do I still look like Im joking, Ardrin Tigernmas? Chang-Sun repeated.

Arin could not say anything else. If Chang-Sun was speaking the truth, he was now a Star Sign that could illuminate the night sky just like the Eighty-Eight Star Signsno, the Zodiacs of .

I could drive out of Arcadia on my own, and the same goes for rescuing Crom and Xerxes. It would take longer, but Id make those things happen no matter what. I visited you regardless because you were the only one who gave me and Ithaca shelter when we were on the run. Im trying to repay the favor right now, Chang-Sun said.

Arin bit her lip as a navy blue flame blazed in one of Chang-Suns eyes.

Whoosh!

But if you refuse my goodwill and continue to be calculating, then Ill do the same. Whats it going to be? Chang-Sun asked.

Arin had to decide whether or not she was going to join Chang-Sun on the spot, but choosing the latter was an intolerable option. Chang-Sun was ready to eliminate her and the entire Revolutionary Army. Chang-Sun was a founding member, so Arin was unsure how he could do such a thing

He means it, Arin thought. She knew Chang-Sun very well, so she was well aware of how he never gave a second thought to the decisions he made.

If I run! she wondered. Perhaps she could hide until the war between the Alliance and came to an end, just as she had been doing, but

Ah, on a side note Chang-Sun trailed off.

What was Chang-Sun trying to say now? Arin swallowed down her saliva and nervously looked at him.

Instead of continuing to act serious, Chang-Sun smiled subtly and said, Youd better not think about running away. Id be able to track you down for sure, but besides that, a lot of guests are waiting for you outside.

What? Arin exclaimed as she quickly looked outside the window, feeling a premonition.

Just then, she could sense several beings with strong Divine Classes descending around the Revolutionary Armys branch.

Rumble!

[The Celestial Lacerta has incarnated using his apostle!]

[The Celestial Hydrus has descended through his apostle!]

[The Celestial Testudo[1] wishes to manifest with his apostle!]

It was broad daylight, but lightning bolts brighter than sunlight struck all across the city. The storms of Divine Class that started all over Clio City were enough to subdue the entire place! Mayhem spread across Clio City as dozens of Star Signs simultaneously descended.

H-How?! Arin exclaimed. She had made sure to move covertly!

Arin looked at Chang-Sun, silently demanding an answer, but Chang-Suns smile deepened. He said, You should have braced yourself for a situation like this when you came to meet me. I was busy ruffling Sadalmelik's feathers, so I think its only natural for them to freak out and take action if they stopped being able to sense my Channeling for this long.

Arin finally remembered that Chang-Sun was currently the focus of attention for . Thus, if he were to have a meeting with the Revolutionary army for a long time, was bound to get anxious. What would happen if they realized that the Revolutionary Armys leader was also here? They would no doubt cause interference immediately.

He tricked me! Arin thought, realizing that Chang-Sun had orchestrated the whole thing.

Now, stop dragging your feet and choose. What are you going to do? Chang-Sun asked, tilting his head.

Chang-Sun was forcing Arin and the Revolutionary Army to join him. What would happen if Arin refused his proposal? Of course, he would leave immediately without any lingering feelings. had Arin and the Revolutionary Army backed into a corner, so the would eventually tear them down. They were standing on the edge of a cliff.

Youre really a son of a bitch, Arin said as she glared at Chang-Sun, gnashing her teeth.

However, Chang-Sun knew that it was a yes, so he smiled leisurely and replied, You didnt know that? You sound as if its your first time figuring that out.

1. This is a former constellation that is no longer recognized as an official constellation.

2. It was previously the Freedom Revolutionary Army, but it has been changed.
