Episode 181
There is no need to think any further.
Cheeky little kid.
I haven’t read the novel Titan properly. To be honest, I didn’t have time to read it.
The important thing is that this is the lord’s novel.
Titan is the story of a lord.
This means that you are not a tool to be used by the constellations that like to play pranks.
It seems like there’s something I need to do before the lord arrives.
I slowly got up from my seat.
* * *
Richard Cloud lived what others would have thought was a fairly happy life.
First of all, he travels all over the world.
Although his registered residence is in Illinois, USA, he has rarely actually lived there.
Hotels located all over the world are his homes.
He had a lot of money.
Its world-wide fame was also enormous.
His profession is a writer.
He is also a master of commercial fiction, whose works are a huge hit all over the world.
‘The Lord of the Rings’, which is about saving Middle-earth by removing the ring, ‘The Potter Series’, a story about young wizards, and ‘A Song of Blood and Fire’, a dark fantasy novel that had a huge impact on the genre novel world.
‘Eastworld’, which deals with the awakening of artificial intelligence robots.
All of these works were made into dramas and movies and brought shock to the world.
All of these works were created by Richard Cloud.
He has a lot of money.
He travels around the world, occasionally giving lectures, and sometimes gets involved in scandals while giving lectures.
When a problem gets bigger, you block it with money.
The value of the buildings and land he owns is estimated to be in the tens of millions of dollars.
He always walks around smiling and doing whatever he wants.
He is called a ‘genius’ by the world.
Today I had a lecture scheduled in Guangzhou, China.
After getting ready and getting dressed, I headed down to the basement.
He sat in the driver’s seat of his beloved Pagani Huayra, one of only five produced worldwide.
I stroked the steering wheel with my hand. Every moment felt like a dream.
[He who divides the nation by his deception laughs.]
Cloud laughed too.
“It’s all thanks to you, Your Majesty. Is there anything you need? I’ll prepare anything.”
[He says that the one who divided the country with his forgery wants 95% of the achievement points that will be earned from this work.]
The ‘this work’ mentioned here refers to the novel ‘What Happened on Titan’.
It was definitely a good novel.
It’s already a worldwide bestseller, so there’s no need to say more.
There is talk of producing a seasonal drama series at MBO in the US, and world-renowned director Quentin Valantino is even contacting us to produce it.
It may seem surprising, but there are countless ways to earn achievement points.
This means that simply participating in the story of the stars is not the only way.
This requires looking at the ‘definition’ of achievement points.
Why achievements?
If the achievements you make in business or research have a significant impact on a star, as the dictionary definition suggests, they will be converted into achievement points.
For example, if you achieve something no one could even dream of in Gate or Abyss, you will receive achievement points.
And the same is true on Earth, where it is originally located and is treated as a kind of waiting room.
Simply building a building, creating a guild, and making that guild the best guild on that planet is an achievement, but it is not converted into points separately, and when moving to the Abyss, the members of that guild are given ability buffs or some useful items.
But whether you become president or a politician.
Or write a work that will have a huge impact on the culture of the stars.
In this case, achievement points are unconditionally awarded.
Richard Cloud has earned approximately 90,000,000 achievement points so far.
This is an absurd level of point.
It is absolutely not inferior to the points earned by [Changcheon Sword Master], the owner of Star #875 22CA.
Of course, almost 95% of these points had to be ‘donated’ to the constellations, [those who divided the nation through forgery], but that’s okay.
With just the remaining 5%, Cloud was able to access numerous items from the Achievement Shop, and as a result, he has never once seen the end of the Abyss.
Cloud escapes as soon as he enters the Abyss.
If you don’t escape in the middle of the process, but escape as soon as you enter, how can you see the end?
Some people criticize it.
But there was a shield.
First of all, his reputation as a world-class novelist, and secondly, that Cloud was a conscientious objector.
The 12th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution allows for conscientious objection to military service.
Of course, it is also allowed in the Abyss.
With the image of a devout believer added to the cloud’s global reputation, who could blame anyone?
You have to deal with all the followers of the cloud, and religion is more sensitive than politics.
Touching that faith?
Who will take care of the aftermath?
That’s why I was able to be so free.

Exactly, up until this moment when he arrived in Guangzhou, Cloud was free.
“If possible, I didn’t want to get involved in other stars’ business.”
Cloud flinched at the voice that pierced through the streets.
I turned my head.
There was a man at the airport entrance.
A bushy head, and a fairly large robe.
He looked like he had stepped out of a martial arts novel, and he was someone Cloud knew.
I hesitated and took a step back.
When Ragnarok happened a while ago, there was a constellation that struck down the constellation Thor.
[The One Standing in the Heaven of Magic], Joo Sung-cheol.
I was really curious as to how the constellations were able to descend to the stars without any restrictions, but putting aside such trivial matters, why were they there?
And why are you saying this?
“Regardless of whether what the story of the stars is trying to say is right or wrong, if the constellations move for personal gain, the repercussions will certainly be beyond imagination.”
Joo Sung-cheol walks in. There are people surrounding him.
A group of guards dressed in suits and tattered clothes.
They are the top Awakened members of the American Helios Guild, hired for a whopping $3 million.
“I want to talk about the Dori. As those who have power and have reached a certain level, each of them has accepted the name of the Constellation and the new role that comes with that name for the future of humanity, although their reasons may be different.”
Those people were falling one after another before they could even reach Joo Sung-cheol.
Thud, thud.
Like a doll with a broken string.
“There is a distinction and example that must be shown to the world. That is the duty that must be kept as a constellation, and the manners that must be shown as those who have settled in the realm first.”
[The One Standing in the Heavens of Magic] was already in front of Cloud’s nose.
“I have no interest in talking to an immature puppet.”
[The One Standing in the Heavens of Magic]’s right index finger touches Cloud’s forehead. Cloud flinches. His throat trembles.
I was terrified.
He said.
“Come forward. I wish to hear your justification for your status as an ugly constellation.”
That was when.
Cloud, reason has flown away.
Cloud’s eyes, which had been filled with fear, change.
Anger builds up and his eyes blaze. A giant giant appears behind him. Cloud’s hand grabs Joo Sung-cheol’s index finger.
“How dare you.”
The tone of voice also changed.
Richard Cloud.
no.
Now his name was not Richard Cloud. He was the Constellation that borrowed Cloud’s body, [the one who divided the nation through forgery].
“Who dares an abandoned hunting dog pup to open his mouth?”
“I guess you forgot.”
Before I could even ask what I had forgotten.
“Because I was a hunting dog, I know the ways of hunting dogs better than anyone else.”
“… … .”
“So I ask, where is the ‘nebula’?”
It was simple.
The word constellation means one of the constellations.
A person who plays a central role in the story of the stars.
That’s a constellation.
Among those constellations, there will certainly be those who understand each other and those who share commonalities.
There is no reason for such constellations to be hostile to each other.
In any case, in the story of the stars, those who are obsessed with creating successors, or incarnations, to prevent the destruction of humanity would have any reason to fight.
but.
Still, there were occasional crazy constellations.
To keep those crazy about fighting in check and to avoid interference with their existing work, constellations with similar intentions gather together in one place.
That’s a ‘nebula’.
[The one who divided the country through forgery] did not do this alone.
The nebula is coming together to do this kind of shit.
Looking at this another way, it means that similar things are happening on other stars, not just star #12.
[The one standing in the heavens of the devil] before your eyes, Jinmyeong Joo Seong-cheol.
This man’s fame is also widely known among the constellations.
He is a fallen star, and a man abandoned by the hunting dogs, but the power he possesses is real.
And the man he serves is also real.
“… … If you know, what will you do?”
“I have clearly stated that I wish to hear an explanation for my status as an ugly constellation.”
“… … This kid is really crazy now. He’s going to pick a fight with Sung-woon?”
“Isn’t that okay?”
“… … Excessive confidence eventually turns into arrogance. Just like you are now.”
“I don’t think that’s something you should hear from the mouth of a thief who steals other people’s things.”
“… … .”
“Where is the nebula?”
[He who divided the country through forgery] was judged.
The Joo Sung-cheol in front of me is not in his right mind.
so.
I’m trying to educate you a little so you can come to your senses.
It was at that moment that I tried to move my arm.
“Is your real name ‘Carlo’?”
I flinched.
“I see. The nebula it belongs to is believed to be called the ‘Reverse Crown’.”
“… … .”
“Looking at your expression, I guess this is right too.”
Light gathers in Joo Sung-cheol’s hand. It is extremely dark. It is pitch-black, Joo Sung-cheol’s own aura.
It is the Cheonma Shingong.
“You have crossed the line.”
“… … What line?”
“How dare you use the work of my lord for your own personal purposes.”
“Ha, strictly speaking, it’s not even the work of the lord you serve. After all, it was written by a ghostwriter.”
“The level of excuses is quite low.”
“… … .”
“Today, you and your constellation will be dismantled.”
“… … crazy guy.”
“Why? Do you think you can’t do it?”
It was difficult to answer easily. At least the other constellations knew what Joo Sung-cheol had been doing.
“Let’s get started right away.”
The Cheonmagi gathered in Joo Sung-cheol’s hand explodes.
Carlo’s body was pushed back. At his face like that.
Kwaaaaang-!!
Joo Sung-cheol’s fist comes down.
I kicked Carlo’s body, which was lying on the floor. Kwaang, Carlo’s body flew far away.
Joo Sung-cheol walked silently.
All kinds of onlookers gathered, and even a broadcasting station helicopter appeared, but they ignored it.
Silently.
He swung his fist.
