The frightening thing about the constellation battle! Even for a powerful constellation, losing a few times would cause their level to drop in an instant. The bigger they bet, the bigger they lost.

“Why?”

“I have no luck...”

That wasn’t it, though. The biggest reason for her losses was that Adaquaniel, one of the goddess’ most powerful combat angels, was out searching for Choi Yeonseung! She thought she could win without Adaquaniel, but that was a mistake.

The goddess lost over and over again. When she did, rather than summoning Adaquaniel, she sent even more angels to find him. Adaquaniel would return sooner if they could finish the task faster!

Of course, that was a crazy idea. She should’ve avoided a constellation battle somehow. Without any useful combat household members, the goddess accumulated multiple defeats. She finally understood her situation and stopped the constellation battles when her power of existence fell below the intermediate level, but it was already too late.

“Uh, I don’t think it’s because you’re unlucky.”

“I have no luck.”

The goddess stubbornly insisted. Choi Yeonseung tried to say, ‘I think it’s just because you’re stupid,’ but she already seemed to be having enough difficulties.

‘So that’s why her situation has gone so awry.’

She had clearly become shabby after losing her realm and followers.

“But Goddess-nim, my master doesn’t decide if someone’s worthy of becoming his ally based on their strength. He’d much rather join hands with a constellation than a strong one.”

[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ asks why we can’t just look at strength when finding allies. It doesn’t think it’ll be that big of a problem if we don’t form an alliance with the goddess...]

[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ agrees!]

Choi Yeonseung’s words surprised the goddess. Requesting an alliance with someone without considering their power was extremely rare in the Abyss. The Undefeated Incarnation of Training had just recently appeared and was still making a name for himself, yet he already had such a wide mindset? The goddess was moved. However, at the same time...

She felt jealous of the constellation who gained the household member she was aiming for!

“... Do you have any complaints about the Undefeated Incarnation of Training? Does he have a bad temper, is a bit cold, or has any bad habits...?”

She knew her current behavior was unsightly for a constellation, but she still wanted to find something where she was better. Just one...!

“... Not really.” Choi Yeonseung was flustered. Why was she asking this?

‘Ah. She’s trying to figure me out as an ally.’

“The Undefeated Incarnation of Training is a perfect constellation. He is generous, merciful to his household, and thorough in combat...”

Praising himself was very embarrassing. The cat constellation even giggled!

However, Choi Yeonseung held back and praised himself.

“Yes...” The goddess became even more sullen.

“?!”

Why?

“Do you not like the alliance offer?”

“N-No. Honestly, I appreciate it.”

Now the goddess had stopped all constellation battles and was living in seclusion. If she bumped into another constellation and lost, she could lose her status as a constellation! Under such circumstances, this alliance was a very welcome suggestion.

“However, alliances can only be seamlessly formed when all parties involved know exactly what the others want. I don’t know what the Undefeated Incarnation of Training desires. I’m afraid we will be disappointed in each other if we form an alliance. My ability to foresee the future is currently weakened.”

Her status as a constellation had gone down, so her power was bound to weaken along with it.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“What does the Undefeated Incarnation of Training want, then?”

“Your advice.”

“My advice...?”

“My master is a new constellation, so he’s in the dark about the situation of the constellations and constellation battles on Earth. He wants advice on that. Moreover, even if your power has been weakened, the ability to glimpse into the future is still powerful.”

“......”

The goddess closed her mouth and was deep in thought.

Choi Yeonseung’s proposal was a good one. Now wasn’t the time for her to refuse the proposal. A constellation who didn’t participate in constellation battles would have to yield and retreat in all competitions. She had to restore her power of existence at all costs!

In addition, the Undefeated Incarnation of Training didn’t ask for followers, her realm, or anything else. He just wanted her advice. He was a broad-minded and generous constellation. He wouldn’t have made such a generous offer otherwise.

‘D-Defeated... I feel defeated...’

The goddess became depressed. Not only was she sad about having her household member stolen from her, but this comparison also made her feel a difference between them so large that she couldn’t even complain about Choi Yeonseung being taken away.

“I accept it with gratitude.”

“You made the right decision!”

“......”

The goddess sulked at the sight of Choi Yeonseung’s pleasure. He really belonged to someone else’s household now!

***

“The rankings are literally the rankings of Earth’s constellations.”

Ever since the gates opened and the constellations of the Abyss appeared on Earth, the constellations had been continuously fighting over Earth. With nearly ten billion souls in it, it was a treasure that couldn’t be obtained anywhere else!

However, battles between constellations weren’t easily settled. The impatient evil god constellations attacked aggressively, but it only made the humans of Earth warier. In addition, the number of constellations coveting Earth continued to increase. They flowed in from the Abyss and naturally intervened in the Game of Stars. As a result, hundreds of constellations now currently wandered around Earth with their eyes on it. They would lose to each other if they acted wildly.

In the end, the powerful constellations who had been there from the beginning took the lead. A new rule was created based on the constellation battles that had existed in the Abyss for a long time.

-If there is a dispute between Earth’s constellations, it will be resolved through a constellation battle.

-If you want to turn a soul on Earth into a household member, you must first participate in a constellation battle. If you choose to result to sneaky methods instead, I will attack you in the name of the constellations who participate in this oath.

-Ranks will be given to the constellations who participate in constellation battles. The constellation that ranks 1st will become Earth’s master.

The oath made by dozens of constellations contained unbreakable power. The newly arrived constellations also participated in this oath and didn’t dare disobey it. The more constellations joined, the more powerful the oath became.

“The constellation that ranks 1st becomes the master? Who’s currently 1st?”

“It is still empty.”

If there was a number one, that constellation would already be ruling Earth.

“It isn’t just me. The other constellations also don’t know the exact conditions for becoming 1st place. We just have guesses. Perhaps a huge power of existence is required to some extent...”

The oath of the constellations created a ‘system’ even they didn’t precisely know much about except for one thing. It had become an absolute system that no one could break! Numerous constellations were aiming for 1st place, so the constellations increased their power and power of existence.

“Is there a 2nd place?”

“The rankings are unknown to other constellations, but the ‘Master of Slowness and Silence.’ has been acting suspicious.

The Master of Slowness and Silence was a powerful evil god constellation who had taken over northern China! It was one of the most famous evil god constellations on Earth. Hence, it was understandable that it would rank 2nd among all of them.

‘I’m ranked 127th.’

He was incredibly far off. How many constellations did he have to beat to rise to 2nd place?

“Goddess, what rank are you?”

“I am... 198th...”

“......”

She was on the verge of losing her status as a constellation due to a series of defeats!

“... Well, ranking isn’t important, right?”

“It is...”

***

When the conversation about Earth’s situation and the alliance had ended, Choi Yeonseung tried to return to Earth. He wanted to check his newly obtained realm and talk about the future with other constellations. However, the goddess hesitated.

“Do you have anything else to say?”

“If the Undefeated Incarnation of Training allows it, is it okay for me to give you a power?”

Choi Yeonseung was supposed to get the power of the goddess and a household member contract once he had completed his training in the tower. She had nothing now, but she still wanted to give something to Choi Yeonseung if it was okay.

“Incarnation-nim said it’s okay... Are you really fine with it?”

“Yes. Please accept this as my apology.”

The goddess held out her hand.

[You have obtained the goddess’ power, ‘Future Sight.’]

[Future Sight]

[Rank: ?

A glimpse of an uncertain future will momentarily come to you.]

Future Sight was a powerful skill given by a goddess who could see into the future. However…

“You have to be careful when using that skill.”

“?”

“The images it’ll show you aren’t always certain...” The goddess pointed to herself. Choi Yeonseung immediately realized what she was implying.

“You can’t use it as you want and you can’t be sure if the future you see is the right one. So you always have to be careful.”

[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ grumbles about what type of power this is.]

It was random, and it could be wrong! Hence, it could strangle him if it made a mistake!

‘I was curious about how the goddess saw the future. Did she keep making mistakes because of how this works?’

Nevertheless, he couldn’t help feeling grateful for being given a gift.

“Thank you. I will use it well.”

“I’m glad. If you have any complaints about the Undefeated Incarnation of Training, please feel free to let me know.”

“No... I don’t think that will happen.”

***

-What do you think?

-I think she’s okay. She seems more reliable than I expected.

Unlike what she said before, the Manipulator of Dreams and Desires surprisingly accepted her quite well.

-What? That’s a bit different from what you said last time.

-I was just expecting her to be more dubious.

The Manipulator of Dreams and Desires had expected the goddess to be a cunning and suspicious plotter. After all, she could just use her power to glimpse into the future for herself! However, the goddess was far from being a plotter. No, her plots were so sloppy that she wouldn’t even be a good fit for the role. The manipulator didn’t know about her other abilities, but they at least didn’t have to suspect betrayal or surprises.

-She’s so sloppy I doubt she’ll betray or cheat us.

-...That evaluation is a bit sad. In any case, I’m glad you’re fine with her joining us.

-She’ll be a good adviser. After all, she has existed since the beginning and has the power to see the future.

[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says that the goddess doesn’t seem to like the incarnation of training very much.]

-What? Really?

Choi Yeonseung was flustered. They were allies, but the goddess didn’t seem to like him very much? Why? He didn’t do anything wrong.

-It’s only natural that she does. She lost the person she wanted to turn into her household member to another constellation. Even I would’ve hated that.

-That can’t be helped, though…

-Maybe that’s why she didn’t say much. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s jealous deep down. In any case, you should be careful. The jealousy of a constellation is more terrifying than you think.

The jealousy of mortals is also scary, but the jealousy of a constellation was far worse.

Choi Yeonseung felt complicated. The goddess was jealous of Choi Yeonseung the constellation because of Choi Yeonseung the household member.

‘There’s nothing I can do about this...’

[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ advises you to talk to the goddess as if you’re being treated badly. She might give you more if you do.]

-That’s good. Beauty is a trick that always works.

-Can you both shut up?

Choi Yeonseung frowned at the sight of the two constellations proposing a terrible plan.
