The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 564

The goddess of sloth was starting to notice.

After such a great and heartwarming conclusion, why would Choi Yeonseung keep nagging her, the goddess of sloth, to keep working?

No matter how she looked at it, it was clear that she had wronged him in some way when he had gone back in time. However, that was her past self. Choi Yeonseung should be angry with that goddess of sloth!

-I want to rest... Sob sob... Working one hour a day is too hard for me...

-...Try and get it done quickly before I make it two hours.

-Sob sob sob...

“Choi Yeonseung, the representatives of Earth are waiting for you,” Adaquaniel said respectfully after waiting for him to finish her conversation with the goddess of sloth. After learning about Choi Yeonseung’s true identity, she had become even more loyal and reverent.

After all, Choi Yeonseung was essentially the consort of the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead.

[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ is worried that Adaquaniel works too hard.]

[She asks you if she can take up some of the work.]

-No, Master. If you take on these trivial tasks, the Undefeated Incarnation of Training... No, the Incarnation of Humanity might question the order of the kingdom.

Although highly capable, Adaquaniel’s perception was a bit lacking.

The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead grew sullen at her loyal response.

[The ‘Goddess of Defeat and Sloth’ says that if you are bored, could you perhaps take up her work instead?]

[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ pretends not to hear it.]

***

The foreign minister from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was in charge of China’s diplomacy. Naturally, he had close ties with the powerful figures in the party and had considerable influence himself.

Hu Fangyu sat down, sweating profusely and wiping his forehead with a handkerchief. His aides looked at him with concern, never having seen their superior so nervous.

“Hu Fangyu, I will face him myself!” declared one of his loyal aides. He was highly regarded by Hu Fangyu due to his constant flattery.

‘Ugh, I should’ve thought of that sooner!’

His colleagues were taken aback by his initiative, realizing that they had missed their opportunity to stand out.

‘Maybe it’s a good thing. After all, this is about being face-to-face with a constellation.’

‘This madman... Does he not know fear?’

‘Would the constellation really kill trivial beings like us? You cowards.’

The aides exchanged looks as they contemplated the situation.

Hu Fangyu slowly put his handkerchief away. The aide stepped forward and looked at Hu Fangyu, expecting praise.

“You..”

“?”

“...What are you saying, you crazy bastard? You’re really getting on my fucking nerves!” Hu Fangyu slapped the aide as he cursed. Normally, he would’ve praised him for his spirit, but this situation was different.

Hu Fangyu had to meet not just any constellation, but the master of Earth! If the results weren’t satisfactory, who would be held accountable in the party? They couldn’t blame the constellation, so they would obviously hold Hu Fangyu accountable.

The last thing he needed was this clueless guy acting big and trying to step up for him!

“Ack! Ahh... I was wrong! I’m sorry!” the aide pleaded on his knees after getting slapped.

The others held their chests and averted their gazes.

“Come in.”

“...”

Hu Fangyu gulped nervously before opening the door and going inside. Though it seemed like an ordinary, dimly lit meeting room, the constellation’s gaze made it feel surreal.

‘Am I in a nightmare?’

Hu Fangyu felt like he was going crazy. Was there really a human being who had become a constellation? And had that constellation really defeated all the other constellations to become the master of Earth?

Did that make sense? Rather, it was more plausible that this was a nightmare.

But regardless of Hu Fangyu’s incredulity, this was reality. Many Chinese scholars and experts had testified in unison.

-There’s no mistake about it. He really is a constellation.

-Considering all the testimonies and incidents since then, the master of Earth has been determined. The constellation game is over... Ack! Why are you hitting me?

-Two days ago, the CEO of a company who had delayed payment to a Korean clan was ambushed by orcs. Only the master of Earth can be behind it.

“Incarnation of Humanity... I greet you,” said Hu Fangyu as he bowed. He still had a bit of pride left, so his bow was less than ninety degrees.

However, he didn’t receive a response.

“...?”

Hu Fangyu was taken aback. He was suddenly overcome with fear. Could it be that he had offended the constellation?

“The one and only master of Earth, Great Incarnation of Humanity... I am deeply honored to meet you.”

Hu Fangyu bowed again, this time deeper than ninety degrees. However, he still received no response. At this, he realized the constellation was aware of his thoughts.

‘I can’t think about anything! No thoughts!’

Hu Fangyu removed any impudent thoughts and filled his heart with eagerness.

“Incarnation of Humanity! Please give me a chance...! If you bless me with this glorious opportunity...!”

Ah, Sorry. You’re here already? I was talking to someone.

“...???”

Hu Fangyu suddenly stopped shouting, the voice of the constellation causing his mind to go blank. What could he say?

‘He was talking??’

The constellation was talking to the representatives of different countries elsewhere and had forgotten about him??

Did that make sense...?

You should’ve announced your arrival more loudly. You think I can hear you if you just murmur? Choi Yeonseung chastised him, seemingly irritated. Despite becoming the master of Earth and having his power of existence expanded by a hundredfold, some things hadn’t changed.

Flattery and displays of reverence were essentially useless when dealing with Choi Yeonseung. In fact, he felt awkward dealing with several countries at the same time and talking to people in suits who bowed after every sentence.

“S-sorry...”

Although he apologized, Hu Fangyu felt a bit of resentment building inside him. Why did he need to apologize? Wasn’t it the constellation’s fault?

But despite his indignation, Hu Fangyu’s posture remained extremely respectful. He had completely forgotten about this idea of representing his country and displaying confidence and an upright attitude.

He was completely frozen even though he was only hearing the constellation, not seeing him.

Yes... Alright, everyone listen up! Many countries keep asking questions about future changes and operations, but I basically have no intention of interfering as much as other constellations have.

At Choi Yeonseung’s words, the faces of the representatives in each room lit up. The emergence of Earth’s master had naturally alarmed all governments. This new existence made any investments in national defense meaningless.

Thus, the representatives were obviously relieved to hear Choi Yeonseung say that.

Interfering unnecessarily will only serve to undermine humanity’s potential. I won’t get involved in matters that don’t require my involvement.

“That’s a great idea!” Hu Fangyu shouted unwittingly.

In fact, excessive interference from the constellation was exactly what the Chinese government feared the most.

The things they had done so far, such as big Chinese companies entrusting commissions to Korean clans and taking money from them, plagiarizing all kinds of new artifacts, restricting the rights of hunters and rebels in China, maliciously collecting information from the people and using it for control, and so on...

The international community used to be a nuisance by constantly meddling in such things. However, while the Chinese government could ignore the warnings of the international community, they certainly couldn’t afford to do so with a constellation.

Therefore, they had been quite worried, but now that Choi Yeonseung was saying this...

Yeah, I’m glad you’re happy. I’ll stay out of things.

“But Incarnation...” someone unseen spoke up eloquently. Judging from the accent, it was clear that they were the representative of the United States.

“As far as I am aware, there is a big problem with companies from a certain country not paying commissions to foreign clans. In addition, there is a de facto civil war, so foreigners who visit the country are unreasonably charged double fees...”

“Not only that, people who oppose their policies are thrown into prison camps and face inhumane treatment...”

Hu Fangyu was furious. He couldn’t see their faces, but he could tell which people were talking. It was clear that they were representatives of countries who were jealous of China.

They were cocky people who meddled in the affairs of other countries!

“Bah. The constellation said that he wouldn’t interfere. Didn’t you hear it? It’s rude of you to say this despite hearing his stance! I think I know who you are!”

“The nerve on you... This is why there’s a civil war.”

“What... What did you say?”

Usually, such representatives maintained a polite attitude because they constantly had eyes on them, both officially and unofficially. But now that they couldn’t see each other, they began speaking rudely to each other, dropping all formalities.

“To be honest, you were so brazen in your treatment of our hunters the other day. When I protested, you threatened to cut off core imports...”

“We’ve been through something similar.”

“How dare...! You think I can’t do it again?”

“Everything is in a state of chaos, and you’re not importing cores? Actually, looking at the current situation, it seems that no amount of cores can get you out of this mess, huh?”

“With that civil war, there’s nothing left that can be destroyed.”

“What did you just say? Show your face!”

The representatives gathered in the dark argued fiercely with each other. It was indeed an undignified dispute for a group of people who were supposed to represent their respective countries.

Choi Yeonseung listened with great excitement before feeling it was time to stop it.

Alright, enough now.

“I... I’m sorry. I was so agitated by the groundless slander...” Hu Fangyu looked in the direction of Choi Yeonseung’s voice and apologized. However, the answer he received shook him to his core.

It’s okay.

“Thank you!”

But fix what that person said. And don’t do it again.

Hu Fangyu stopped for a moment.

“...Huh?”

Don’t do it anymore. Don’t do the things that were mentioned just now.

“...N-no... But you just... You won’t interfere... Didn’t you say that?”

Hu Fangyu had a bad feeling about this, and his voice was quivering.

Listen carefully, Choi Yeonseung said in an irritated tone. I told you to do well on your own, not to play around. If you take care of things yourself, I won’t have to interfere, right? If you guys take care of it, I won’t interfere either. So take care of things yourselves.

“No, that... What is that...?”

Choi Yeonseung had said he wouldn’t interfere, but this was even more ridiculous. They had no idea how exactly he would get involved in things.

Everyone can do well, right? Don’t let me down.

“I can’t accept it...” Hu Fangyu stuttered as he tried to somehow get out of this situation.

At that moment, Hu Fangyu felt his mind expand into the distance. At the same time, he also felt a crushing sensation.

What... was this...?

What?

“I... I will obey your command.”

Yes, thank you for your understanding. I’ve always hated meddling in the affairs of others. I’m not like the other constellations. Understand? If you act in moderation and take care of things, I’ll really stay out of it.

“...”

“...”

Some of the listening representatives thought to themselves, ‘Maybe it’s better to just get involved a lot...’
