BXBX NOVEL Chapter 572
Chapter 572
“They did.”
?!?!
The wandering merchant and the manipulator constellation suddenly stopped and turned back around. That was how shocking Adaquaniel’s answer was.
[The ‘Wandering Merchant Who Sells Destiny’ asks when it happened.]
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ is surprised and asks who took the initiative.]
The cat constellation, having started this tense topic, was the most flustered. After taking a few moments to regain its composure, it asked a follow-up question.
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ asks when, where, and how!]
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ says it seems a bit dangerous. Wouldn’t it be better to drop it...?]
The manipulator constellation tried to talk the cat constellation out of it, but the cat didn’t give up. Its curiosity and desire to uncover the truth was stronger than the fear of getting slapped by Choi Yeonseung a few times.
When had they done the deed?
"I don’t know that.”
...???
Adaquaniel’s bold answer left the three constellations baffled.
...What?
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ asks when you said they did it...]
“The two of them produced such a great heir together. There’s no way they haven’t mated yet, right?”
......
......
The constellations were devastated to realize the truth. Adaquaniel hadn’t seen or heard it herself; she just assumed that her masters had done it!
...But if it were that simple, the three constellations wouldn’t be so worried.
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ regrets that it asked for nothing.]
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ says it would be better to ask other mortals.]
The three constellations wanted to leave Adaquaniel and go elsewhere, but Adaquaniel wouldn’t let them.
“You don’t believe me.”
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says they believe you!]
[But there are other commitments...]
“Please wait a moment, everyone.”
Adaquaniel stopped them once again and continued in a serious tone, “You seem to believe that they still haven’t mated, but I am going to explain to you just how amazing the two of them are.”
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ asks what this has to do with mating...]
The manipulator constellation tried to convince Adaquaniel to let it go, but the angel didn’t waver. The three constellations were forced to hear her long-winded praise for Choi Yeonseung and the goddess just because they had asked one wrong question.
***
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ says to get lost.]
......
The cat constellation was irritated by the cold reception of the observer constellation. However, this mating issue was of utmost importance, so they had to put up with it. No one knew what consequences the Abyss might face if they didn’t handle this matter properly.
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says there is a very important issue.]
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ sighs.]
[She begrudgingly allows you to come in.]
The gates of the realm opened, releasing a frosty gust upon the visitors. The three constellations entered cautiously, and they could see that the observer constellation was clearly annoyed with their presence.
The Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place ended up on the victors’ side after the constellations’ game ended and the Master of Slowness and Silence fell. However, she hadn’t really interacted with her fellow victors ever since.
Normally, she wasn’t keen on interacting with any other constellations besides Choi Yeonseung. In fact, her three visitors understood her position. She had set her sights on that mortal first, but then an unsuspecting constellation had snatched him from her grasp.
And after that...
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ suggests being considerate of the observer constellation and approaching this topic with care.]
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ agrees.]
The constellations knew well that they had to tread carefully with the Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place. Although she wasn’t the Master of Slowness and Silence, she was among the most powerful constellations in the Abyss.
Weaker and intermediate constellations couldn’t possibly stand a chance against her.
The trio had to be careful not to upset her for no reason!
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ asks if the ‘Incarnation of Humanity’ and the ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ might’ve mated.]
......
......
The wandering merchant constellation and the manipulator constellation were many times more stiff than when they had talked to Adaquaniel. After all, the angel couldn’t tear them apart in a fit of rage, but the constellation in front of them could do that effortlessly!
Among the many evil god constellations out there, some of them had been captured by the observer constellation and turned into eternal ice statues...
The manipulator constellation involuntarily looked behind her, wondering if she could somehow flee from this realm if things went south.
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ bitterly asks why you are asking such a question.]
Fortunately, instead of tearing the three of them to death or freezing them, the observer constellation just asked them why they wanted to know that.
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ says it is for the future of the Abyss...]
The manipulator constellation tried to explain the situation as quickly as possible before the observer constellation lost her patience. Fortunately, instead of dismissing it as nonsense, the observer constellation listened to them and seemed to understand.
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ says she understands.]
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ is happy!]
[It is grateful for your understanding!]
The cat constellation was overjoyed with the positive reaction of the observer constellation. It hadn’t expected the observer constellation to actually take their concerns seriously.
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ still wonders why you came to her for this.]
......
......
...Indeed!
The trio quickly got the hint and shut their mouths.
Come to think of it, no matter how much the order of the Abyss depended on this issue, it wasn’t a good idea to come to the observer constellation and ask, “Hey, aren’t you worried that the angel child might not be born because the goddess of balance and the Incarnation of Humanity weren’t mating?”
It would only serve to re-ignite the hatred of the observer constellation, who had managed to suppress her anger for the sake of everyone.
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ says bitterly that he might’ve mated with the household member of that idiot constellation.]
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says they asked her and the answer was no.]
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ is shocked and speechless.]
The observer constellation had said that to mock the cat constellation, but then its reply left her speechless. She hadn’t known this constellation was this crazy!
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ says that everyone should be concerned about this for the sake of the Abyss.]
[She says that she doesn’t want the ‘Master of Slowness and Silence’ to come back because order was shattered.]
The observer constellation sighed in frustration at the serious explanation. Indeed, the manipulator constellation wasn’t completely wrong.
Although the Master of Slowness and Silence had been defeated, powers related to the past and the future were rare and volatile even in the Abyss. It wasn’t known what would happen if the constellations messed with the wrong variable and altered the future.
If, by any chance, the Master of Slowness and Silence came back to life...
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ asks what to do.]
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ says to help the two constellations mate.]
[It should be quite possible with the power of the observer constellation.]
The observer constellation looked troubled. She would much rather kill constellations than help them mate...
[The ‘Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place’ asks if we can just give him angels to mate with him until the child is born.]
[The ‘Cat of Lava and Magma’ is intrigued by your suggestion.]
[The ‘Manipulator of Dreams and Desires’ urges you not to fall for such nonsense.]
***
[The ‘Wriggling Bug of Hell’ comes at you!]
[It multiples itself!]
Huh, you use an unusual power.
[The ‘Wriggling Bug of Hell’ claims that no constellation can overcome its power.]
[It arrogantly declares that many monsters in the Abyss have succumbed to it.]
The Wriggling Bug of Hell was a case of a monster turning into a constellation. Like most newborn constellations, the Wriggling Bug of Hell was full of unfounded confidence. Having defeated other powerful monsters, the worm constellation was convinced it was unstoppable in the Abyss.
Of course, it was just an illusion. There was always going to be another sky above the sky, a realm of power so vast and unimaginable that it couldn’t be perceived, let alone reached, by simply defeating a few powerful monsters.
I’ll show you.
[You have multiplied yourself!]
[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ compliments the power.]
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ admonishes the opponent for its arrogance.]
[The ‘Hound of Instinct and Liberation’ rushes in!]
The worm constellation was stunned when Choi Yeonseung replicated its power perfectly. The worm hadn’t yet realized the difference in power of existence, but this feat alone made it realize that Choi Yeonseung was leagues above it.
[The ‘Hound of Instinct and Liberation’ bites the ‘Wriggling Bug of Hell’.]
[The ‘Wriggling Bug of Hell’ screams in pain!]
Enough. Stop it.
Choi Yeonseung stopped the hound constellation, as he had no intention of killing the ones who challenged him.
Will you surrender or die?
[The ‘Wriggling Bug of Hell’ swears an oath of surrender.]
[It is in awe of your power!]
Several constellations had once reigned supreme in the Abyss, and each of them had done that in their own style. Similarly, Choi Yeonseung was running the kingdom in a unique manner.
He would get constellations to kneel before him and then subjugate them.
[The ‘Goddess of Defeat and Sloth’ praises that it is a good method if you have the confidence to control the constellations.]
You’ve become better at flattery.
Hearing that, the goddess of sloth cursed him in her mind. She was flattering him like this because he kept putting her to work!
[The ‘Hound of Instinct and Liberation’ shouts that it was a fun fight.]
[Please call him if there is a fight like this again.]
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ says that some constellations have been suspicious lately.]
?
Choi Yeonseung was puzzled by the angel constellation’s remark.
Suspicious in what way?
Are there any constellations dreaming of a rebellion?
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ says it doesn’t look like that.]
The angel constellation explained the details, how the cat constellation and the manipulator constellation were walking around and whispering about this and that...
‘It doesn’t sound like a rebellion.’
Choi Yeonseung didn’t feel like those two constellations would betray him. Rather, it was more likely that they were plotting something trivial.
‘But it’s better to check it out.’
[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ asks how the ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ is.]
She’s doing well. I appreciate your concern.
Choi Yeonseung expressed his gratitude for the angel constellation’s consideration.
The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead approached Choi Yeonseung while holding her swollen belly. He hugged her and suggested, You should be resting in the tower.
[The ‘Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead’ says it is okay.]
[Adaquaniel is managing the realm, so there is no need to worry.]
[She is asking what you guys are talking about.]
It seems that the Cat of Lava and Magma and Manipulator of Dreams and Desires are messing around. I’ll go and ask them what they’re up to.
Choi Yeonseung hadn’t seen them in a while, being busy with everything, so he figured he would just speak to them personally and find out what frivolous plan they were working on.
