Chapter 387: Star, Purple Star Astrology (8)
[News of the Celestial ‘Divine Twilight’ is spreading throughout <Heaven>!]
[The Celestial ‘Tsunami Bringer’ chuckles dryly!]
[The Celestial ‘Antlered Animal King’ reveals his desire to have a good fight with you!]
[The Celestial ‘Plague Monarch’ is rummaging through her storage to find you a congratulatory gift!]

The first people to react were the <Anti-Star> Alliance Celestials. They had been considering withdrawing from the battle line if Tiamat kept losing the fight, so they fell into utter shock.
A Celestial King candidate! The seat of a Celestial King was never handed out on a whim. One had to have a strong influence beyond their <Society> and over the entirety of <Heaven> first, and Creator and Ruling Celestials had to voluntarily bow and create the seat of a Celestial King for that person. However, that was not all. The person had to earn a sufficiently tremendous achievement that would leave a significant turning point in the history of their Worldline to sit in the provided seat.
That was why there had been no more than five Celestial Kings in the last aeon, although there was no surviving Celestial King in Worldline #801 right now. Some people in the current generation were as mighty as Celestial Kings, but no one had officially earned the title. In other words, even though the Nine Heavens like Tiamat and Durga were assessed to be comparable to Celestial Kings, most people in <Heaven> had not recognized them as representatives of the Worldline.
In conclusion, being a Celestial King candidate alone meant that one had the power to affect a Worldline’s history, which was very significant.
[The Celestial ‘Garden Gatekeeper’ reveals his strong hostility!]
[The Celestial ‘Malignity-Drinking Saturn’ wishes you would visit him soon!]
...
[The Celestial ‘Taurus’ purses his lips.]
...
Uriel and Satan were still strongly hostile to Chang-Sun, so he did not particularly need to care about their reactions. On the other hand, Bel-Marduk began to watch Chang-Sun with enmity, not interest.
‘That’s good.’ Chang-Sun found Bel-Marduk’s reaction very satisfying.
It meant that Bel-Marduk, who always looked down on the world with confidence, had finally recognized Chang-Sun as his opponent, implying that Chang-Sun had reached a similar level to him. And...
[The jawbones of the Celestial ‘Abyss-Chasing Great Devil’ clatter as he says that you have finally become decent!]
Mephistopheles was also recognizing Chang-Sun’s advancement for the first time.
‘Would it kill you to give a nice compliment to your student for making progress?’ Chang-Sun asked with a chuckle, and he immediately received an answer.
[The Celestial, ‘Abyss-Chasing Great Devil’ says that you should be able to observe beyond Worldlines at least, scoffing!]
Chang-Sun thought to himself that he was still unable to live up to Mephistopheles’ expectations, but he had a feeling that it would not take long to make it happen.
‘I have one step left before becoming an Outer Celestial.’
After completing the middle volume of [Prelati’s Spellbook], Chang-Sun would be able to exceed the level of such hideous beings as Anomalies or Abominations and reach the level of an Outer Celestial.
‘Of course...’ Chang-Sun thought as his [Gnostic Eye] gleamed. ‘I’ll have to defeat him first.’
Whooooosh!
Feeling his Inferno Sight blazing, Chang-Sun tightened his grip around the [Twilight Spear]—no, the fully restored [Gungnir]. The three-meter spear was extremely long, and the huge spearhead was made up of four blades. It was hard to call it an ordinary spear, but Chang-Sun actually found this form of the [Twilight Spear] much more stable.
―[Gungnir] in its fully restored form, not one made from magic... I never knew I would see the spear like this. I guess it was the right choice to give you the [Gnostic Eye].
Odin laughed in bliss, but Chang-Sun did not know what his final goal was. Although Chang-Sun had once thought that Odin was trying to be the main ego, Odin was very cooperative nowadays, a tendency that seemed to have gotten stronger after Balor’s death. Was Odin trying to make Chang-Sun restore his own <Myths>, just like with [Valhalla] and [Gungnir]?
Even if that were the case, those restored <Myths> would belong to Chang-Sun, strengthening his ego in the end, not Odin’s. In fact, it would push Odin toward being merged with or subjugated by Chang-Sun even further, so Odin should have felt reluctant to cooperate if his goal was his independence.
Taeul always came up with the means to defeat his enemies before he engaged in battle, so he was helpless against Chang-Sun’s sudden transformation, revealing a vital weakness in his strategic ability.
『The Odin in this Worldline... was a loser—no, the Odins in all Worldlines were losers. They were greedy, but they always went after more than they could handle, bringing their downfall upon themselves. So how are you doing that with such power...?!』
Taeul looked at [Gungnir] with disbelief.
―He really knows nothing. Is he not aware that you can learn more from those mistakes? This is the problem with these pampered people, Tsk!
Odin clicked his tongue and scoffed.
Even if the leader of <Purple Star Astrology> had devoured numerous Worldlines and gotten stronger, he was just being treated as a spoiled brat now.
[The Myth of Dragonslaying has been activated, unleashing a vigorous Dragon howl!]
Ooooooong!
Kieeeeeh―!
Chang-Sun paused his raging attacks and took a deep breath, tightening his grip around the spear. As he infused an abundance of divine power into it the spear let out a clear resonating sound as ghostly wails echoed ominously. The chaotic mix of murderous energy, ghostly energy, and fighting spirit rippled, and Taeul was standing precariously at the other end of that ripple.
“Do you know what your biggest problem is?” Chang-Sun asked sarcastically.
Despite his fatigue, Taeul’s expression was tinged with fury.
“Your caliber is low.” Chang-Sun sneered.
[The Myth of monster-slaying has been activated, raging against the opponent!]
Swoooosh―!
Chang-Sun thrust [Gungnir] forward, turning it into a ray of light. His storms and lightning energy intertwined indiscriminately while his <Darkness> and supreme sacred light entangled, the spear leaving numerous big and small explosions behind.
It was Flashstrike, the same technique Chang-Sun had used to take out Sangwon.
The difference was that back then, Chang-Sun had only had a rough idea of the technique; now, he had mastered it and made it his own. In addition, his <Myths> and relics were far beyond what he had at the time.
Chang-Sun had not just restored [Gungnir]. His four slayer swords and other weapons had numerous warriors and heroes as their masters in the past and forged their own <Myths>. He had merged them into one, elevating those <Myths> to a higher level. That was why the <Myths> of the four slayer swords could overpower Taeul one after another.
The <Myths> of ‘Divine Twilight’ were revealing a brilliance beyond any they had ever shown before.
[The Celestial ‘Zi Wei Yuan’ has activated the Signature ‘Heaven and Earth Great Shift’!]
Taeul activated his Signature to the fullest capacity, gritting his teeth. His goal was to block Chang-Sun’s projectile, but the problem was the <Myth> that Chang-Sun had used in this attack. With the <Myth> of monster-slaying, [Trollsverd] had the ability to counter all abnormal phenomena that went against the laws of nature, nullifying Taeul’s last resort.
[Error!]
[Error!]
...
[The Signature activation of the Celestial ‘Zi Wei Yuan’ has failed!]
[Gungnir] shattered through the error messages, destroying Taeul’s remaining arm and piercing his chest.
Craaaack―!
A human head-sized hole appeared in Taeul’s left chest.
[Your ‘Gungnir’ has struck the Celestial ‘Zi Wei Yuan’ and slain him!]
『N... o...!』
Taeul’s mouth slowly opened and closed as he looked down at his chest. His sacred light had already died out, and his youth was gone too, leaving his wrinkled face fully exposed.
Creeeeeak―!
With loud noises, the pulleys of Divine Steel chains started to turn, muffling Taeul’s scream.
