The Celestial Returned From Hell

“That... No, don’t worry about him. Just get moving!”

Choi Yeonseung didn’t have the time to pay attention to Gerrity. After all, this situation was quite nerve-wracking for him as well.

-Why didn’t you just change the location altogether?

-It didn’t seem like a good idea.Changing venues won’t deter the evil god constellations if they’re set on attacking.If anything, it’d only reduce the amount of intel we have.

-That’s true.There’s no guarantee you can get information again.

-Then it would be dangerous to evacuate them.

-Exactly. If the constellations notice that their targets are fleeing, the future can change.

Predicting the future didn’t guarantee victory. From the moment of seeing the future, many things could get complicated, and the whole situation could get convoluted.

That was what Choi Yeonseung was worried about. They had foreseen the attack of the evil god constellations, but a hasty response could lead to more twists.

Given how many people had gathered here to watch the debate, it was considerably difficult to decide on a method of fighting. However, Choi Yeonseung didn’t waver. His spirit was strong enough so that he wouldn’t give up just because he was in a difficult situation.

-Umm.If anything, I’ll have to throw Huntsman away.He has escorts to protect him.

Choi Yeonseung calmly made a judgment. Even though Huntsman was his most successful believer, Choi Yeonseung couldn’t endanger thousands or tens of thousands of people for one person.

He knew that Huntsman was the primary target of the evil god constellations, and he had to take advantage of that.

-The enemy will target Huntsman first, so let’s use that to form a defensive line.

-Good idea.

-Prepare the hunters as much as possible so they can respond as soon as an incident occurs. They’ll look like bodyguards, but they’ll actually be prepared to evacuate. Illaphael, do you think I can ask the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons to send his minions for support?

-Don’t worry about it. I’ll take the initiative myself.

-...Wait, can you do this without permission?

-I wasn’t talking to you, nightmare demon.

-...

-Can you perhaps also ask the Goddess of Pleasure and Lust for support?

-Uh, sure… It won’t be an issue.

-Wait. Won’t the goddess of pleasure send nightmare demons?

-...What’s wrong with nightmare demons?You have a problem with that?

-...

-...

-...No, but please reconsider, Choi Yeonseung. Nightmare demons are basically...

-Shh.Illaphael, don’t make racist remarks.Illeya, you…

-Yes. The Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place...I’ll ask her for support.

-Huh?There’s no need for that. You’re good enough.

-Wha…Why...? Let me just ask my master for help…

-Fine, but I still don’t think it’s necessary.

-...

Illeya was dumbfounded at how much Choi Yeonseung trusted her. However, Illaphael envied Illeya.

-I’m jealous that your abilities are acknowledged, human.

-...Заткнись...

Choi Yeonseung used everything and everyone at his disposal, but that didn’t mean he would let his guard down. Regardless of how much power he used, this was a dangerous situation.

A single moment of carelessness could lead to defeat!

“Hunter Choi Yeonseung! What Gerrity means...”

One of Gerrity’s subordinates desperately wanted to make an excuse for his previous remarks. An A-grade hunter’s words always carried a lot of weight. If a junior hunter said something stupid, their clan could just kick them out or make them disappear, but if an A-grade hunter said the wrong thing, they could cause a clan war or a fight to the death.

However, Choi Yeonseung just grabbed Gerrity’s subordinate by the collar and threw him to the side in annoyance.

“Get out of the way.”

Gerrity’s subordinate couldn’t hold his ground and flew away. Even though he was a B-grade hunter, none of his defensive spells could do anything against the sheer force exerted by an A-grade hunter.

“!?”

The other hunters were already panicked, so they didn’t have time to ask what was going on with Choi Yeonseung.

They were flustered because more enemies had revealed themselves among the crowd. They flocked from all directions, wielding artifacts that pulsated a sinister energy, bestowed upon them by the evil god constellations.

The hunters were stunned by the situation, frozen in fear.

Meanwhile, Choi Yeonseung rushed forward.

The battle began.

***

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ bestows its power.]

Hunters were said to use sword-type weapons, but many people actually found swords to be outdated.

As such, the Beast of Swords and Spears was at a disadvantage when it came to gaining more power of existence. However, it had managed to find a workaround thanks to the recent increase in the number of martial artists.

The beast constellation was forced to admit it. Its power was better suited for martial artists than for magicians!

“You’re just a bunch of no-names trying to learn martial arts!”

“You inferior hunters are so arrogant... Do you think you can do anything?!”

Most of the hunters who were standing guard were high-grade personnel, including several C-grade and B-grade hunters. It was only natural that hunters with such brilliant careers would see their attackers as some thugs.

These intruders were E or D-grade and most, and yet they dared to attack like this, trusting only their numbers?

[The power of the ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ has amplified the Red Death Swordsmanship.]

[The power of the ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ allows you to release sword energy!]

Bam!

“?!”

However, the outcome of the fight that broke out subverted everyone’s expectations.

One of the attackers, who didn’t seem to have any armor artifacts, swung his sword, releasing a red-colored energy that instantly tore through a C+ grade hunter’s magic shield and armor.

The badly wounded hunter stared in disbelief at his enemy.

“Tankers, come forward!”

“Hahaha! Don’t give them time to make a formation! Cling to them!”

The minions of the evil god constellations rushed forward while laughing maniacally.

They weren’t masters of martial arts like Choi Yeonseung, so they wouldn’t be able to dodge or block a powerful long-distance attack. However, even if many of them fell, they would remain a formidable force as long as they stuck to their formation.

“There’s a situation! We’re being attacked! The constellations are attacking! Block South Street and the way up to the museum!”

“Don’t let them into the government building! The candidates are in danger!”

The clan hunters at the scene urgently tried to communicate and defend themselves, but the momentum of their attackers was too great.

The hunters’ expressions were filled with despair and fear.

“Over here! Angels, get rid of the enemies! Don’t let them get closer!”

“!!!”

However, their allies also exceeded their expectations.

The hunters were startled to see angels rushing out from behind them. Why were there angels here?!

“Illeya, freeze everything around you! You can release them later. For now, freeze everyone, friend or foe!

“...”

At Illaphael’s shout, Illeya used her power with a wary expression as though she was dying.

The enemies, who had been running wild as if they controlled the entire world, were taken aback by the sudden change in temperature.

What was this?

“Well done! One more time over here!”

“...”

***

-A terrorist attack is currently taking place at the US presidential debate!It hasn’t been confirmed yet which evil god constellations are involved in this terror attack!

Due to the magnitude of the incident, the raid was immediately broadcasted live around the world. Countless people watched the battle unfold, everyone shocked and frightened.

The impact of this incident was unimaginable.

Everyone knew that the evil god constellations were constantly committing terrorist attacks, but this was the first time they attacked the presidential election of a world superpower so blatantly.

Given the turmoil caused by the ongoing invasion, this senseless act of violence seemed to signal the end of the world.

Fear and anxiety were delicacies both for the evil god constellations that were currently fighting on Earth and those who were in the Abyss.

But things didn’t go as the evil god constellations had planned.

-Knock them down!

At one point, the forces of the evil god constellations all flocked in one direction.

The spectators weren’t aware that Choi Yeonseung and Adaquaniel had lured the enemy forces to where they wanted through their meticulous defense network.

Unable to break through the solid defenses of the hunters, the minions were forced to retreat to a less guarded area—the hill in front of the government building.

However, Choi Yeonseung was there, relentlessly attacking anyone who approached the building. Dozens of minions who knew martial arts desperately tried to surround Choi Yeonseung and back him into a corner, but none of their attacks hurt him.

If anything, Choi Yeonseung counterattacked every single one of their moves.

Suddenly, the sound of a cannon shot echoed in the air, and tension swept through the area.

Kwon Yeongseung, who was watching the broadcast, said in a disheartened tone, “Why isn’t he moving…?”

Choi Yeonseung was fighting well, but Kwon Yeongseung was watching the fight closely. The enemies were attacking with all types of skills, whereas Choi Yeonseung was still staying in his spot.

Woosh!

Han Seha threw her sword at him. Even though the sword was still in its sheath, it flew fast enough to startle Kwon Yeongseung and make him dodge.

Bang!

“Are you crazy?!”

“That’s what I wanna ask you! Don’t jinx Choi Yeonseung’s fight!”

“...If you guys want to be so loud, go and watch it outside!” Jeong Wonuk grumbled with a frown.

No one would’ve thought that this was a gathering of South Korea’s A-grade hunters.

Whenever people thought of an emergency meeting of A-grade hunters, they usually imagined the hunters dressed up in fancy suits, reporting on the situation and discussing countermeasures.

‘Is he trying to hold the enemies there so that the civilians can escape?’

Jeong Wonuk felt a pang of sadness. As a fellow first-generation hunter, he could understand Choi Yeonseung’s intentions. It would be much easier to fight while moving freely, but then the attackers of the evil god constellations would break into the building behind him.

That was why Choi Yeonseung was fighting like that.

Jeong Wonuk switched the channel to check how things were in other areas.

“?”

However, they all focused on the fierce battle on Choi Yeonseung’s side.

‘Has the fighting stopped in the other areas?’

Many would’ve considered it a good thing, but Jeong Wonuk thought it was weird for all channels to focus on one person.

It was as if the whole world was watching this fight.

***

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Instead of instantly collapsing, Choi Yeonseung’s opponent lasted through three blows. This made Choi Yeonseung realize that his opponent wasn’t an ordinary minion.

Given the intense power of existence he felt, Choi Yeonseung determined that he was fighting a household member.

Having figured out the nature of his enemy, Choi Yeonseung responded with something simpler than looking for weaknesses.

He just grabbed his opponent and proceeded to strangle him.

“■■■■...!!”

The household member was frightened and tried to escape, but Choi Yeonseung held onto him and used him as a shield, efficiently blocking the attacks of the other enemies.

-All the weak ones have fallen.Be careful!

The goddess of sloth shouted at Choi Yeonseung from the sidelines. The majority of the minions, which were essentially fodder, had fallen.

The remaining enemies were renowned household members who had been greatly empowered by their constellations.

“You’re pretty good. My name is...”

Choi Yeonseung used Origin of the Celestial Fist before his enemy finished his introduction. The concentrated fist energy, enhanced by the blessing of the good god constellations, blew away the household member.

[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ claps happily!]

The strange turn of events left the evil god constellations bewildered. Above all, they hadn’t accumulated as much power of existence as they had expected.

What was going on? Were the humans no longer scared?
