The Constellation Returned From Hell-Chapter 472
Chapter 472
“Desire...!”
“...”
Choi Yeonseung predicted the future and immediately got into a combat stance. There was only one thing that the nightmare demon, whose eyes were rolled back, would do.
“Give me your desires!”
“Yeah, I figured as much!”
The demon so beautiful that no angel or elf could compare to now roared like a feral animal and ran on all fours.
Choi Yeonseung widened the distance and used Origin of the Celestial Finger. The internal energy bullet flew straight ahead and then suddenly swerved.
In terms of sheer penetration power, the Origin of the Celestial Finger was no less powerful than the magic of an A-grade hunter.
It was an offensive skill that concentrated internal energy to the limit, crystalized it, and compressed it into a deadly bullet. Attaining such a skill was rare even in the Abyss!
Only Choi Yeonseung, who had devoted his life to martial arts, had the privilege of using such a unique and powerful skill.
Bam bam bam!
‘What…? This crazy thing…’
Choi Yeonseung was stunned. He hadn’t expected the nightmare demon to still come at him after being hit. The bullets didn’t inflict severe damage because Choi Yeonseung purposefully hadn’t used concentrated energy, but it was still unbelievable that she was still charging at him after having one of her vital points hit.
Not even giants and orcs, who were generally rash and careless, would fight like this!
“Give me your desires!”
“What is this bastard doing?!”
Illaphael was enraged and immediately raised her spear and tried to impale the nightmare demon. She was so furious that the feathers on her spread-out wings quivered, and nearby terrain shook because of the magic power she was exuding.
However, the nightmare demon was surprisingly strong, and she managed to catch the spearhead with her teeth.
-What is that...?
Even the goddess of sloth was impressed by that move. Illaphael had to have used a combination of skills to empower that spear thrust, so for the nightmare demon to stop it with its teeth…
‘This nightmare demon definitely isn’t normal!’
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ is ashamed.]
The manipulator constellation was terribly ashamed even though this wasn’t her nightmare demon. Why were all the nightmare demons like this...?!
***
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ shouts to calm down!]
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ shouts to calm down!]
The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust shouted at her household member, Lamart, in a bewildered manner. This wasn’t what the goddess had planned.
After all, only a crazy constellation would cause such a commotion when sending their household member to negotiate.
No constellation would ever do anything like that, not even the evil ones. Doing something like that was essentially a public declaration nobody could trust that constellation.
This wasn’t the plan of the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust. Rather, her plan was to quietly make Choi Yeonseung, the household member of the Undefeated Incarnation of Training, fall in love with her household member and capture him.
Lamart, the goddess’ household member, was up to the task. She possessed powerful seduction skills and a mesmerizing beauty. If the goddess added her power to that, any mortal out there would be entranced by her just from making eye contact.
Of course, the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust hadn’t planned to capture Choi Yeonseung instantly. If she could do something like that, she would’ve reigned supreme in the Abyss a long time ago.
However, the scary thing about her was that she eventually did capture her target. Just as water that was constantly dripping on a rock would eventually split it in half, the goddess would eventually brainwash her victim without their noticing.
The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust had sent her household member for that exact purpose, but she didn’t understand how Lamart had screwed up and why she hadn’t managed to control her desires and ended up going berserk.
‘What’s wrong with her?!’
“Give me your desires! Give me your desires!”
“Illeya, hurry up and help! Protect Hunter Choi Yeonseung!” Illaphael cried out urgently. Nightmare demons were dangerous creatures that used an overpowered skill called Energy Drain, and she didn’t know what would happen if Choi Yeonseung fell into the grasp of the nightmare demon.
They had to stop the nightmare demon at all costs!
‘I think he’ll manage on his own...’
In Illeya’s eyes, Choi Yeonseung was expertly manipulating the rampaging nightmare demon like a matador, but her words wouldn’t reach Illaphael’s ears.
“Hurry! Quickly! Use your power!”
“Fine...”
Illeya looked weary as she used her power. She made up her mind to distance herself from this angel after his battle was over.
She couldn’t help it. This angel was really…
[The power of the ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’...]
An eerie chill surged forth and enveloped the nightmare demon, slowing down her movements. With that, Illaphael shouted to Choi Yeonseung, “I’ll finish off that coward myself!”
“No. Just calm down, Illaphael!”
Illaphael was enraged and was about to unleash a surprise attack, but Choi Yeonseung wasn’t actually that angry.
‘That’s just how nightmare demons are.’
-...
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ quietly says that it’s not true.]
Choi Yeonseung wasn’t surprised by this nightmare demon, especially since the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust was behind this.
It was more advantageous to keep the nightmare demon alive and negotiate with the constellation. Besides, the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust would be the one forced to make concessions because of this incident.
“Immobilize her!”
“Hey! Use more sealing magic! The nightmare demon is wriggling!”
“Isn’t this nightmare demon completely crazy?”
The hunters cast dozens of layers of sealing magic on the fallen nightmare demon in order to prevent her from moving when she woke up.
“I knew that the nightmare demons coming from dungeons are dangerous, but I didn’t expect a constellation’s household member to be this vicious!”
“That’s how monsters from the Abyss are.”
“Did you see how she lunged at Hunter Choi Yeonseung earlier? I can’t imagine what would’ve happened if we hadn’t stopped her.”
“Did you see the look in her eyes? She’s a complete monster.”
The Texan hunters murmured to each other in dismay. They thought that the nightmare demon who had rushed to bite Choi Yeonseung was terrifying.
“...”
It wasn’t until she was frozen by a certain power and bound by various sealing spells that Lamart came to her senses. After hearing what the humans were saying, she quickly grasped the situation.
‘I made a mistake...!’
Her mission was to cunningly seduce someone, so how had she lost control and gone berserk…? It was an unbelievable mistake for a nightmare demon as powerful as her.
Lamart didn’t understand what had happened.
‘I lost myself the moment I used my power on that household member… Why?’
Did that household member have the same power of temptation as her? Even if that were the case, it still didn’t make sense.
If the human household member had the same power, he would, at best, only be able to match Lamart, a natural-born nightmare demon…
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ casts a cold gaze at you and says she is disappointed.]
-I’m sorry, Master.I will make amends for my mistake.
Lamart hurriedly apologized for her blunder. Her priority was to fix the mess she had caused rather than figure out exactly what was going on. Besides, she could guess how everything had fallen apart because of what had just happened.
“This unfortunate accident was… my fault,” said Lamart in a bitter and rather sad voice.
First things first, she had to persuade the nearby human hunters.
“Ack! The nightmare demon has woken up!”
“Cover your ears and back off! She’ll possess you if you get close!”
“Don’t look at the nightmare demon and don’t get close to her! We might die the moment she touches us!”
“...”
Lamart was bewildered to see the human hunters covering their eyes and ears and backing away. It was a very different reaction from the humans she had seduced so far. Usually, no matter how hard they tried to look away, they would approach Lamart as if enthralled by her...
“Mo-monster!”
“Hunter Choi Yeonseung! The monster has awakened!”
“...”
Lamart realized just how big of a mess she had caused after going berserk. Otherwise, there would be no reason for the humans to be so afraid of her.
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ scolds you and asks if you know now.]
“...Hunter Choi Yeonseung?”
Lamart turned to her target and realized that it wouldn’t do much good anyway to reconcile with those human hunters.
The most important thing was to get in the good graces of this household member.
“Yes. Have you come to your senses?”
“It was a most regretful accident... I am very sorry…” Lamart said reluctantly. Her expression was rueful, and her voice tickled everyone’s ears like a jade bead rolling on a tray.
She caused even Illaphael to feel a bit weak.
But given that Choi Yeonseung was a constellation, her heartfelt apology had no effect on him. If anything, he found her apologetic attitude to be quite ridiculous after seeing her struggle and roll around while immobilized.
‘I can’t believe she’s acting like this in this situation. Nightmare demons sure are amazing.’
“An accident?” he asked.
“Yes. Since several constellations have fought in this area, the flow of magic power became unstable,” explained Lamart. “This made me lose control and go berserk.”
“Huh… Well, if that’s the case, I can recommend a great place for your problems. If you go into a prison cell and exercise restraint for a long time, you’ll feel better.”
“...”
Lamart was taken aback by Choi Yeonseung’s wry attitude and resolute expression. How come he wasn’t falling for her words?
“A-a prison cell is too much...”
“No, it’s a good place. Nightmare demons often go to underground prisons. I think you should go too.”
“!”
Lamart realized that Choi Yeonseung was quite familiar with nightmare demons.
‘This is ridiculous!’
Nightmare demons were quite a rare race in the Abyss and few in numbers, so Lamart hadn’t expected a human household member to be so used to dealing with them.
Realizing that her skills and powers didn’t work, Lamart decided to drop the act. She glared at Choi Yeonseung with the arrogant and venomous eyes befitting of a household member of the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust.
“What skill did you use? You must’ve also used a skill.”
Unlike Lamart, Choi Yeonseung had an idea about what had happened. It was clear that Lamart had been subtly trying to win him over with her power.
That was the specialty of the nightmare demons, so it shouldn’t have been that difficult.
However, Choi Yeonseung was a constellation, and he had managed to reverse Lamart’s power with his powerful seduction skill, Joy and Happiness Aplenty.
In addition, to the nightmare demons, Choi Yeonseung was basically...
-Very tasty prey.
‘...Let’s change that and say I’m just very popular.’
For the nightmare demons who coveted and absorbed desires, Choi Yeonseung’s pure and refined desires were the sweetest delicacy.
Choi Yeonseung had to have looked insanely appetizing to Lamart after her power had been used against her. In a situation like that, any nightmare demon would go crazy, no matter how powerful they were.
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ tells you to stop talking.]
[She says to admit to the current situation and compromise. She will step back from this area, so let’s clear it up nicely.]
The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust was being quite considerate. As expected, she was a seasoned constellation.
In an unfavorable situation where it was natural for her to concede, she showed benevolence and patience.
-She’s a very cunning constellation.
The goddess of sloth yawned after making that remark. She was one of the oldest constellations in the Abyss, so she saw clearly through the act of the goddess of discord.
A strong constellation like Choi Yeonseung wouldn’t be deceived by such a trick. Of course, things might be different if it were the goddess of balance.
“That’s just the bare minimum. You’ll have to pay more for this ambush.”
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ clicks her tongue.]
[She warns that being greedy can lead to a breakdown in negotiations.]
“You think I’ll fall for that?”
[The ‘Goddess of Pleasure and Lust’ says that the strength of her household member...]
As the two constellations were bluffing and threatening each other, Lamart’s eyes rolled again. Since she was sealed by magic, her magic power was depleted, and she eventually lost control again.
“Desire!!! Desire!!!!”
“...”
The Goddess of Pleasure and Lust covered her face with both hands. This nightmare demon was ruining her reputation!
