Episode 208
I’m not interested.
Their fate was determined simply by coming to this star, and by being here with me at this moment.
The mechanism of the moving stone is to move through dimensions.
This is definitely a must.
Before a dimension can be pierced, space must first be pierced.
The basic mechanism of dimensional travel is to connect dimensional rifts after piercing through space. In other words, if you can control all of the space on this planet #299, you can block access to the connected dimensions.
To be exact, it can be adjusted.
You just have to control the space.
I’ve never tried it, but the theory is sound.
so.
I put it into action immediately.
I reached out and grabbed the empty space.
The white energy gushed out. The white energy moved through the space. To be exact, it dug in.
My arms were shaking slightly. A drop of sweat formed on my forehead.
Excuses like saying your body is not normal are meaningless.
Now I intend to control all space on star #299.
It’s obviously crazy. Probably no one has ever tried it.
It doesn’t matter.
Because I haven’t done it.
If I do it, it will be different.
The amount of energy needed was more than I thought. This is okay too.
He gritted his teeth and injected more energy.
Kookookookookung.
The world vibrates.
I saw the pig next to me startle and back away. I don’t know why. Maybe because my energy was so threatening, or maybe it was just scared.
Actually, I wasn’t interested. I was busy.
Soon.
Paaaaaaaang-!!
A huge wave spread out into the world, centered around my hand.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.
It’s almost done.
From now on, ‘Lee Dong-seok’ has no meaning on this star.
I grabbed the lock on the box. It cracked and broke easily.
I opened it as is.
The ‘black energy’ inside the box spreads out into the world.
I didn’t cover the box, throw it away, or anything.
I had already guessed what was inside.
strength.
There was a letter and a black aura that was spreading out into the world now.
This letter, lightly coated with a considerable amount of ecstasy, piqued my curiosity.
I picked it up as is.
“Hey, pig.”
A very scared pig slowly approaches me.
“Put down some boards so I can sit down.”
The pig lightly touched the air with its forelegs.
Then, a barrier made of energy appears underneath.
I sat down right away.
There was chaos down below, but still no one cared.
Silently.
I read the letter.
* * *
I felt it almost at the same time.
The King of Paradise, as well as the troops he had summoned and the other constellations that were using Paradise.
Everyone sensed a change in the air.
No, not just the air, but the nature of mana itself has changed.
The beginning was light.
The lowest constellations began to cough, one by one.
There are rustling sounds here and there.
It wasn’t even just a cough.
It was hemoptysis.
As the lower constellations began to sway in their seats, the middle constellations also responded.
He started coughing, started spitting out blood, and started staggering around, unable to keep his balance.
The upper constellations, the highest constellations.
There were some who belatedly raised their spirits, but it did not last long.
“Poison… … It’s poison-!!”
There was no other sentence to express it.
It was clearly not a common poison.

Poison that spreads through the air.
A poison that changes the nature of all energy, including mana.
How many people can explain this?
Superior constellation, highest constellation.
All of these people who know how to handle nature as a basic skill and can open up their own soul power did not get to this point through Go-Stop.
They immediately blocked all the energy flowing out of their bodies.
The energy and spiritual power that has been stored in one’s own danjeon or heart will rise up.
From now on, it’s a race against time.
Kill the one who poisoned this planet and escape from this planet.
Of the two cases, they chose the first.
Because my pride wouldn’t allow me to just run away.
That was when.
Someone shouted.
“Up!”
It was quite a height, but not to those present.
Everyone leaves their seats at the same time.
The number is 940 in total.
There were a whopping 940 constellations.
They could see a man sitting in the sky reading something.
He paid no attention to the hundreds of constellations that ascended into the sky.
Silently, I read the letter.
From beginning to end, and then back to beginning again and again to end.
Repeated.
I couldn’t understand why he was doing that. No, I didn’t even think about understanding him.
[Midas], the manager of Star #1111 and a member of the Nebula [Knights of the Hawk], stepped forward.
“Reveal your identity!”
“Me? Wait. Just read this one more time.”
“… … You cheeky brat. You’re the one who’s polluted paradise!”
The man waved his hand as if he was annoyed. Then he silently read the letter in his hand.
[Midas] couldn’t stand it anymore and kicked the seat. His body stretched out. He tore up the letter and tore up the face of the guy reading it.
I ran out with that thought in mind.
Then, he raised his left wrist.
Kwaaaaang-!!
It had huge front legs.
And beyond that, a creepy-looking Doberman is seen.
No, can this be called a Doberman?
A ‘dog’ that size does not exist.
That’s just a monster.
[Midas] swung his right fist.
Kwaaaaang-!!
The Doberman, who had been hit, yelped and rolled backwards. Only then did the masked man who had been reading the letter raise his head.
He sighed with a look of disbelief and took off the mask he was wearing.
At the sight of his bare face, [Midas] and all the hundreds of constellations that had ascended to the sky were surprised.
“Jin… … Jin Shihou… … ?”
Jin Shihou didn’t care about their reactions. He just looked at the pig with a pitiful expression.
“You and Seongcheol, it’s really strange. Those guys who used to go somewhere and do nothing but come under me and get beaten up here and there. Why do you do that? You have to get rid of those scumbags on your own. Okay?”
Even though the pig squeaked in sorrow, Jin Shihou was merciless.
“No snacks for a week.”
Jin Shihou, who had put the letter in his bosom, only then looked around.
“There are so many people here.”
As soon as it was revealed that it was ‘Qin Shihou’ who had poisoned the stars, the attitudes of the constellations that had been actively preparing to fight changed.
[Midas] said.
“… … You must have gone to Hancheon to engage in a fierce battle with the ascendant [Plati], so how come you are here? Could it be… … .”
“Yeah, that’s right. I got it, Platy.”
“… … Huh… … .”
“So, is that all you’re curious about?”
Of course, this couldn’t be all.
“Why did you poison this star? And it seems that the use of the ‘Movement Stone’ has become impossible. Was this also your doing?”
“Yeah. I did it.”
“… …Why are you like that?”
“Well, well. Why can’t the reason be ‘just’? It’s just like that.”
“… … That can’t be. It doesn’t make sense for someone as strong as you to just do something. Please tell me why. If I made you feel uncomfortable, I can definitely take it back. I can apologize.”
Anyone who knows [Midas] would not understand why he would act so humble. To be exact, they would have been surprised.
Yet, those present said nothing.
That’s all for the being that killed the ascendant.
“The reason is… … . I don’t think you can answer that. This is paradise. The king of paradise, he’s the only one who can answer.”
Jin Shihou pointed to a certain place with his finger.
There, in the midst of dozens of tangled constellations, was a man wearing a lion mask.
Jin Shihou snapped his fingers.
“Answer me. Why did I poison this star?”
The king of paradise was not a fool.
reason?
I can guess it well.
The designated King of Paradise took a step forward and opened his mouth.
“When the wind blows, the mask that covers our ego is taken off. The true face inside is quite ugly.”
Jin Shi-hoo gestured as if telling him to continue.
“We simply fulfilled the desires of those who revealed their true faces. Is that wrong?”
“I never said it was wrong.”
“Then why on earth did you do all this… … .”
“There was a girl named Jinsong. My older sister.”
The King of Paradise flinched.
“… … I understand what you mean. However, the ‘Jinsongi’ you know and the Jinsongi over there are different beings.”
He shook his head.
“I don’t feel good.”
“……yes?”
“I don’t feel good. Another being? I guess that’s true to some extent. We lived on different planets. But we have the same face. Even though we live on different planets, I have a younger sibling named Jin Shi-hoo, and I always call her Jin Song. She’s my older sister, you know.”
Jin Shi-hoo paused for a moment, then pointed at [Midas] with his finger as if he had forgotten.
“You, by the way, weren’t you the guy who bought the intermediate Jinsong earlier?”
“… … .”
“I think I paid the elf. With some kind of card or something. Is that right?”
[Midas] swallowed hard.
Because it was true.
Still, I had something to say.
“… … I think it would be better if you thought of it as a hobby only for the constellations. And I didn’t buy it to ‘use’ it, I bought it because the [Knights of the Hawk] Commander wanted to use it.”
Should we call it political?
It didn’t matter whether [Midas] wanted to buy it for personal reasons or not. [Midas] used the nebula he belonged to, the [Knights of the Hawk], as his shield.
To touch me is to touch the [Knights of the Hawk], so refrain.
That’s roughly what it means.
Jin Shihou chuckled. Then, he spread out his right hand.
With that hand, [Midas], who was far away, was sucked in. He couldn’t do anything.
Jin Shihou’s hand caught his head.
“Okay… … Just a moment… … .”
There was no reason to ask any questions, and no answers to be heard.
The results speak for themselves and we’ve already heard all the answers.
so.
Plop-!
[Midas] blew his head off.
The surroundings were plunged into silence.
You crazy kid.
Jin Shihou, who had roughly shaken off the hand, looked at the King of Paradise again.
“I’ll finish it. Jinsong over there is someone who walked the same path as our older sister, who was struggling to figure out how to make the world a better place. Should we just ignore them because they lived somewhere else? Is that right?”
“… … .”
“I can’t do that. I see my sister in those Jinsongs over there. It’s really unpleasant. I really don’t feel good. If you want to give me a reason, just think of it as being hurt, like I said before.”
