-Is it enough for the manipulator constellation to come out?
Choi Yeonseung was amazed. It was understandable for the cat constellation to watch Choi Yeonseung all the time since it only rolled around in the warm lava area. In comparison, the manipulator constellation was someone who ran her own kingdom. He never thought that the usually unobtrusive constellation would say something like this.
-You are saying this because you don’t know how great this magic is. Think carefully. The sight of many undead making items at the same time. If they make tens or hundreds of thousands of them, one of them will be a masterpiece.
Choi Yeonseung imagined it without realizing it. A huge factory with all types of facilities. Skeletons and ghouls working 24 hours a day in that factory. Was this the automation of the raid era?
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ asks what ‘manipulator constellation’ means.]
-Don’t worry about it. It doesn’t mean much. It was true. It was the first time he knew that an undead could do such a thing.
After receiving the expectations of three constellations, the goddess of sloth opened her mouth with a very burdened expression.
-I had nowhere to use it so I put it away...
-......
-......[......]
The three constellations glared at her and the goddess continued speaking in a hurry.
-I can find it. Find it!
-Hurry up and find it.
-Successor, you are too harsh on me.
The household members of the goddess of sloth had retired after a certain period of time. Like their master, they all wanted to play and eat. The goddess understood this feeling so she was considerate.
-So what is the problem?
-It will take some time to find and wake up the household member who knows the secret.
The goddess had a long history and she had many household members. Finding them, waking them up and asking for the secret was a hassle.
-Don’t play tricks and find it quickly. If you can’t find it, you will train with me for 25 hours a day.
Choi Yeonseung threatened in a sincere manner. The goddess started sweating at the first threat. It was unbelievable pressure from a young constellation!
-I... I will find it. I will find it.

Douglas, the champion of the B-grade League, was always surrounded by people.
“Glenn. This drama was also incredible. People just drop dead when you come out!”
“Where are you going to next?”
“Let’s see. I don’t know.”
“How about trying a raid after a long time? The ripple effect will be great if you enter the dungeon!”
The moment Douglas walked out after filming, Douglas’ people gathered around him and chatted one by one. Starting with the secretary, agent and manager, the composition was diverse.
Douglas was smiling but his inner thoughts were cold.
‘Insignificant bastards.’
They were people helping Douglas but in Douglas’ eyes, they were just insignificant.
[’Noble Crown Collector’ is pleased with your attitude.]
The collector constellation was pleased with Douglas’ actions. What the collector constellation wanted was a lineage with a long history.
Everything else was just petty dust.
“Hunter Douglas! I’m a fan!”
A little boy passing by shouted while holding out an autograph paper. Douglas’ escorts and manager tried to stop him but Douglas stopped them.
“Come here. I’ll sign it for you.”
The people who saw this scene exclaimed. As expected, Douglas had a different personality! He was the champion of the B-grade League, the one who was closest to A-grade. It was hard to believe he didn’t lose his humility despite being in such a high position and still treated his fans like this.
“Thank you!”
Douglas sent the boy away and inwardly cursed.
‘What a nuisance.’
[’Noble Crown Collector’ is more satisfied with your attitude.]
In the eyes of the collector constellation, Douglas was a very likable household member. In the first place, there were no constellations who selected a household member they didn’t like, but Douglas was outstanding among them. He had an arrogant personality that fit the constellation very well!
The agent approached Douglas and said. “Douglas. Do you remember the challenge that you gave Mackenzie Junior?”
Douglas nodded.
4th place in the B-grade League. Mackenzie Junior. Most of the top players of the B-grade League were hunters who had signed with constellations. It was natural since the hunter’s own talent was combined with the power given by a constellation.
Mackenzie was definitely a threatening opponent. Douglas didn’t think he would lose but...
“I heard he gave up the right to challenge you.”
“What? To whom?”
“Choi Yeonseung? You know, the martial artist who has become famous these days?”
“!”
Douglas turned his head at the unexpected name. The agent chuckled like he was amused.
“This is better. 20th place is better than 4th place, right?”
“Why did Mackenzie concede?”
“Who knows? There must’ve been some deal behind the scenes.” Don’t worry. It won’t hurt us at all. He is the one who will receive the curses.”
The absolute champion Douglas. In contrast, a hunter who was just rising up. Since he won the right to challenge through such backdoor dealings, he was bound to be criticized by people.
-Even the 10th ranked hunter can’t challenge him. What right do you have to challenge him? Boooo!
-If you are going to compete with a guy like that, give Max the challenge!
Moreover, for Douglas, Choi Yeonseung was better than Mackenzie. Wasn’t he a much weaker opponent?
“He is drawing attention for his martial arts but you can step on it. Trample down on it.”
“What trampling? I always fight as hard as I can. I am serious no matter the opponent.”
“This guy. You are very humble.”
The agent said with a laugh.
He had been working next to Douglas but he really hadn’t seen a hunter like Douglas before. Hunters were basically a bunch of bastards. The higher the status, the more their inner bastard grew. However, Douglas had never seen him do anything cocky despite being in such a great position. Honestly, it was unbelievable.
“Then you’ll accept the match?” Show that cheeky guy what a champion is like.”
Douglas nodded and walked away. His face was very cold.
***
“Wow...”
“Shouldn’t we take away Hunter Choi Yeonseung’s smartphone for a while?”
Elisabeth asked worriedly. There was a lot of swearing on the Internet.
-No matter how good his momentum is, does it make sense to challenge the champion right away?
-What did Mackenzie get that he conceded?
-Dirty back deals, go away!
Choi Yeonseung had received a lot of swearing when he went against Maximilian, but this was on a different scale. Maximilian had as many anti-fans as fans, while Douglas had an overwhelming number of fans. Besides, he was the champion. The league fans were practically on Douglas’ side!
“Don’t you think this is okay?”
However, Smallwood surprisingly judged that it was fine. More opposition to these words came out than expected.
-He killed an A-grade monster so he has the right to challenge Douglas. Is there anyone in the top ten of the B-grade League who has killed an A-grade monster right now?
-If they don’t like it then go catch an A-grade monster or something. What is the point of having a higher ranking? Isn’t it because they entered first and fought a lot?
-If you are a hunter, you should kill monsters.
-If you want to kill monsters, why join the UHC?
-Isn’t it weird when the whole purpose of the UHC is to train hunters in the first place?
It was a success that he wasn’t criticized unilaterally and there were quite a few differing opinions. The 20th ranked hunter challenged the champion and this was what was said. It meant that Choi Yeonseung was attracting buzz lately and he had a lot of momentum.
People always cheered for a star and subconsciously wanted a new star. To those people, Choi Yeonseung who suddenly came up from below was like a new star. A star who appeared like a comet, smashing the hunters of the B-grade League and rising above them!
...Of course, Hwang Gyeongryong also put pressure on all related companies.
-At least report it in neutral gear. If you have a bastard who curses at Choi Yeonseung then you had better watch out for your life.
It wasn’t a joke. He really said this and the officials took Hwang Gyeongryong’s warning seriously. However, the hunters of Icarus weren’t aware of the situation.
“Now that this has happened, he must win. If he loses, it will be a deep disgrace. He won’t be able to play for around a year.”
Choi Yeonseung’s momentum was good because he won, even if he played unreasonably.
A world where everything was right if he won! No matter how much he talked before the game, the incidents he caused or the fans he beat up, everything was acceptable if he won the match. But the more he did so, the greater the reaction to defeat. If Choi Yeonseung was to lose even when Choi Yeonseung forced the match like this...
Not only would he be bombarded with swear words but the other ranked hunters wouldn’t compete with Choi Yeonseung for a while.
“What are you guys doing over there?”
“Uh? Nothing. Uh. I was looking at the weather for today.”
“You can see it is sunny just by looking at the sky right now. But you said you are looking at the weather separately?”
Choi Yeonseung looked at Smallwood like he was strange. Did he have any future Foresight skill?
“N-No. Friend. There is a saying that goes ‘check the weather in advance when the sun is shining’.”
“Is there such a saying? It is weird.”
Choi Yeonseung shrugged and walked away. The road to the stadium was already full of people. Once Choi Yeonseung entered, there was an explosion of boos.
-Cowardly bastard!
-Fight fair and square!
-What is this old man?
It was such severe booing that a normal person would’ve trembled and passed by quickly. However, Choi Yeonseung’s eyes didn’t change.
‘Keep making noise.’
After living in the Abyss for over 10,000 years, such jeers sounded like sweet desserts. When running an inn in the realm of demons, the cursing he heard was 100 times worse than that.
“Spit!
Someone close by spat at Choi Yeonseung. Choi Yeonseung avoided it, grabbed the person by the collar and pressed against both cheeks.
Slap slap slap slap slap!
“Ack! Ack! Kuack!”
“This dirty bastard.”
Once someone threw a raw egg from a distance, Choi Yeonseung skillfully caught it and threw it back.
Pak!
-Boooooo!
-What are you doing?
As the booing grew, Choi Yeonseung responded.
"Shut up!"
The shout filled with internal energy silenced the voices of the people gathered here and overwhelmed them. Once the surroundings became quiet, Choi Yeonseung nodded in satisfaction.
“It is a bit better now. Keep quiet until I go in.”
“......”
“......”
It was only after Choi Yeonseung went in that the crowd was able to open their mouths.
-■■■■■! ■■■■!
-■■■■!
Seeing the curses pouring out like crazy, the Icarus clan hunters looked tired. This...
It was a total villain position! It wasn’t at the level of dropping oil in the fire. It was completely pouring it on!
‘Isn’t Choi Yeonseung enjoying himself?’
‘What is he going to do?’
***
Everyone was silent at the end of the match. It was one of the greatest matches they had seen in recent years. The match was so perfect that the spectators were overwhelmed by what they saw! The match was so fierce and at a high level that even those who were cursing kept their mouths shut. Finally, the winner was Choi Yeonseung.
‘It isn’t a joke.’
Choi Yeonseung was frankly impressed. He knew that Douglas had signed a contract with an evil god constellation but he hadn’t expected it to be to this extent. At this moment, the future appeared in front of Choi Yeonseung’s eyes.
[’Future Sight’ has been triggered.]
“......”
Then Choi Yeonseung was astonished.
Douglas...
Suddenly, he went crazy and went on a rampage, killing the people around him.
“?????”
Were his skills broken?
