The Celestial Returned From Hell

-How amazing!

The collector constellation felt admiration despite his summoned household member being instantly killed in one blow and sent back to the Abyss. Even in the vast expanse of the Abyss, Choi Yeonseung’s martial arts were unique.

Spin.

Choi Yeonseung split another enemy with the exploding sword energy, then spun around and aimed at his next opponent. The collector constellation had summoned several household members. He had to reduce their numbers quickly. Since they belonged to an evil god constellation, he had no idea what they would do if he left them alone.

He didn’t know if it was fortunate or not, but right now, the constellation was too absorbed in admiring Choi Yeonseung’s martial arts. It wouldn’t be strange if the collector constellation destroyed the surrounding area and turned it into hell, so Choi Yeonseung had to take advantage of this situation now to deal with him!

Bang!

Unlike before, his fist reacted immediately. He wouldn’t be attacked in the same manner twice.

-Do you know the family of the one you dealt with earlier? He is the heir to a lineage of the British royal family.

“!”

Choi Yeonseung was shocked. Now that he had thought about it, all the household members summoned here were human. The collector constellation had taken over the United Kingdom, so there was nothing strange about him picking out people and recruiting them into his household.

-How do you feel? Huh?

The collector constellation stared at Choi Yeonseung with expectations. There were quite a few hunters in this stadium, but among them, Choi Yeonseung was the only one who stepped up to save the citizens. The more righteous and good a human was, the more entertaining it was to play with them. The collector constellation expected Choi Yeonseung’s face to be distorted with pain and despair.

“Well... People can die any time.”

-?!

Choi Yeonseung was calmer than expected. He wasn’t as good and upright as the collector constellation thought. It wasn’t Choi Yeonseung’s fault that he couldn’t save his opponent. It was the fault of the collector constellation, who turned normal people into household members.

-Aha. I understand now. You’re from Asia, so you don’t care much about European royalty. Then how about this? The enemy you are dealing with right now has the blood of the Japanese royal family flowing in his veins! Can you still cut this man down?

“... Ah. Yes.”

‘Did the constellations not do even the slightest bit of research before invading Earth?’

-Well, constellations have always been like this.

Since South Korea and Japan were close, this constellation seemed to think that they were friendly with each other. He probably thought he could just grab the Japanese prime minister and say, ‘Surrender if you want to save this man’s life!’

Bang!

Hence, the collector constellation was really surprised when Choi Yeonseung’s sword energy exploded once more and tore magic apart. The collector constellation thought this human was a kindhearted hero, but he didn’t show the slightest hesitation.

Did he have no remorse? The descendant of the Japanese royal family seemed to specialize in close-quarters combat. He cast various buff spells on him, then attacked Choi Yeonseung with a katana.

Due to the power of the collector constellation, the man became as fast and his sword as destructive as Choi Yeonseung and his sword energy. As many martial artists had complained about, almost anything was possible with magic. However, Choi Yeonseung wasn’t flustered. Even if his opponent had gained an explosive increase in power, he didn’t have a deep sense of martial arts.

Choi Yeonseung used the Origin of the Celestial Step with even more strength. Despite using the same footwork technique, its execution varied depending on the situation. When defending against an opponent’s attack like he was right now...

‘Turn gently to the side and nullify the attack before it hits.’

-!!

Choi Yeonseung disappeared like a shadow, causing the enemy to panic. After the Japanese man’s series of attacks, Choi Yeonseung started counterattacking from the side. The same footwork technique that he used to gently dodge earlier now became as violent as a storm.

Fighting fiercely, Choi Yeonseung charged toward the opponent and attacked his throat. His sword energy struck like an explosion. The opponent gritted his teeth as he tried to fight back, but Choi Yeonseung’s movements changed again. His erratic patterns were fitting for melee combat. Unlike his enemy’s attacks, which couldn’t reach him, Choi Yeonseung’s attacks struck his enemy’s vital points several times in a row.

-That’s amazing! How did you do that?

The collector constellation admired Choi Yeonseung once more, finding his martial arts skills very interesting. Choi Yeonseung showed movements that could be found in any combat sport. He used footwork that was used in magic combat, magic swordsmanship, and even Earth boxing.

Offensive footwork, evasive steps…

But the depth of his movements differed so much that even if others copied him, they wouldn’t be able to keep up. Instead of answering, Choi Yeonseung used his sword energy to end the rest of the enemy household members.

[The skill ‘Suppress the Strong and Support the Weak’ has been activated. The power of your existence has risen!]

[The ‘Overcome Oneself to Become Strong’ skill has been activated. The power of your existence has risen!]

A constellation wasn’t used to being ignored. Hence, the collector constellation started becoming furious. No arrogant constellation could stand being taken lightly by an ant.

-Do you think I am afraid of your master? He has a weak reputation here on Earth!

‘I feel bad, but that is hard to refute.’

The Douglas’ eyes shone, his body having been borrowed by the collector constellation. He then started summoning his strength.

“... What a madman.”

Choi Yeonseung was astonished. The huge stadium was collapsing from above.

***

‘Now that I think about it, this isn’t particularly surprising.’

All the people had been evacuated, and only the hunters around could help Choi Yeonseung. The Icarus clan or Mount Hua Sect weren’t dull enough to die from a collapsing building. Choi Yeonseung didn’t own this stadium, either, so he had no reason to worry.

“Aaack! Aaaaack!"

“What? Why did you stay instead of evacuating?”

Choi Yeonseung tried to leave, but he was soon shocked. He had been too busy fighting to notice them earlier, but there were still a few people in the commentary seats high in the stadium.

“Did you stay to commentate on the fight? You are very professional.”

Brian looked dumbfounded. What crazy joke was that?

The trembling staff member next to him explained the situation. “When the attack broke out, we were told we shouldn’t rush to go out, so we decided to hide instead…”

“Next time, keep an eye on the situation and leave when you can.”

Choi Yeonseung took out a rope, swiftly tied the people together, and prepared to take them out.

“I forgot something!”

“Is that something to say now?” Brian scolded his subordinate in a fit of panic.

Why was his subordinate acting stupid in front of a hunter who came to help?

Finding it rather refreshing, Choi Yeonseung asked, “What is it?”

“My smartphone… I filmed everything with it...”

Choi Yeonseung was impressed. Was this a pro?

“Alright. I’ll take care of it. Let’s go.”

Once the work was done, Choi Yeonseung ran like crazy. Debris fell down from all sides. However, whenever anything blocked his way, he easily cut threw it or blew it away. Whenever he lagged behind, he jumped up and flew. This was easy for a martial artist who could walk on air. The violent movements made the people hanging from him nauseous, though…

Thump!

When they landed outside, they found troops already in the vicinity. Heavy anti-monster weapons had formed a net of firepower, and helicopters were flying in the sky. Moreover, they had also hastily assembled a group of hunters.

‘These guys came but didn’t enter?’

Choi Yeonseung burst out laughing. He naturally understood.

-Put your life on the line.

That was the first thing anyone would be told upon becoming a hunter. However, if they heard, ‘Douglas has gone crazy, has signed a contract with an evil god constellation, and is going on a rampage inside the stadium,’ it would only be right not to go in the stadium. Considering he would come out eventually, it would be better to wait in a large area and ambush him with superior numbers.

“Aren’t these people too much?”

Compared to Choi Yeonseung, the staff member was angry. He couldn’t believe that even though so many people came, they all just waited outside.

“Every life is precious. Don’t blame them.”

“I-I’m sorry. In the presence of another hunter...”

The staff member shut up, realizing his mistake. Cursing hunters in the presence of another hunter… Nobody would like it when those close to them were insulted.

“No, you don’t have to be sorry. You can swear at them. I don’t really care. Hunters are sons of bitches.”

“......”

“......”

The hanging staff members looked very confused. Choi Yeonseung found the Icarus and the Mount Hua Sect hunters standing by among the crowd after evacuating the people.

“I’ve pulled him out! Give the order to attack!”

Despite the noise, everyone clearly heard Choi Yeonseung. It was as if he was speaking right next to their ears. However, they would’ve begun their offense even if Choi Yeonseung hadn’t ordered them to.

… Douglas’ figure was breathtakingly threatening.

“G-giant! It’s a giant!”

“Is that Douglas?”

Douglas was growing bigger and bigger amid the rubble of the ruined stadium. The huge figure shimmered with an ominous light, seemingly made of dark shadows. A shining crown rested on his head.

-Today, my name will shake the continent.

The collector constellation smiled cheerfully and looked down at the people who had gathered. He was trying to gauge how many he could kill before Douglas died.

The self-propelled artillery started bombarding him. Enchanted shells passed through the magically processed gun barrel and struck Douglas in the torso, but Douglas defended himself by wrapping his arms around himself.

The people gathered groaned. He was barely damaged.

“Hey. Did you really fight one-on-one with that guy?” Max, another B+ hunter, asked in disbelief as he looked at Choi Yeonseung.

Ranked 13th in the UHC League, he knew how strong Douglas was. He was already strong back then. Now that he had turned into a giant with this much magic power, however, he was suffocating. Only an A-grade hunter could possibly deal with Douglas now. No, it was doubtful even those hunters could. Taking that into consideration, it was unbelievable that Choi Yeonseung managed to leave the stadium after fighting Douglas.

“Uh... Who are you?”

“... Don’t you know your fellow UHC players?! I am Max. At least remember my face.”

“I’m sorry. I don’t remember anyone ranked lower than me.”

“Since when have you been ranked higher than me...? Ah.”

Max was about to be furious but soon realized something. Choi Yeonseung was now the champion.

“He’s making a move! Hunters, stop him!” the terrified soldiers shouted the moment the giant, still defending himself, started approaching slowly.

Hunters were the only ones who could stall for time when an attack wasn’t working. However, those at the scene just looked at each other instead of stepping up. They could feel it instinctively. The first person to go out there now had the highest chance of dying!

“If we don’t stop him now, this area will be devastated!” An officer cried out eagerly. However, the hunters didn’t move.

“Can’t the US issue an order at times like this?”

"What are you talking about? Of course not.”

“Hah. Really? South Korea just issues orders.”

Choi Yeonseung was impressed. So this was the country of freedom.

“Mount Hua Sect hunters. I am going to make a request, not an order. You can say no if you want.”

“......?”

“Will you fight that man with me?”

“Of course. We’ve been waiting!”

“Thank you.”

Antony, who was listening to the conversation, suddenly wondered, “Aren’t we needed?”

“You’re supposed to follow. Let’s go!”

“... Isn’t that too mean?” As Antony complained, Elisabeth and Smallwood looked at each other in surprise.

Had Antony finally realized his problem?

As the ominous giant slowly kept moving forward, tearing up the road and destroying cars, Choi Yeonseung’s group boldly charged in, leaving a deep impression on the people in the area.
