Return to the Power of the King Part 2 Episode
585
A macrocosm formed by the merging of numerous microcosms.
The owner of countless constellations that illuminate every corner of the universe.
The great constellation ‘Archaeopteryx, who presides over the Void Records’ was looking through two records.
The intermediate constellation ‘The Demon King Who Defies Fate’ and the low-level constellation ‘The Predator of the Three Heavenly Worlds’.
It was a record of a time when two constellations born in one universe were mortal.
[Interesting.]
The Demon King and the Devourer are from the same universe, but there is a considerable time gap between their lives.
Nevertheless, by sharing the same world, they achieved a transfer of power and eventually succeeded in coming out of the world.
Awakening from a barbaric creature that knew nothing to a constellation that the universe’s power of existence cannot handle.
It can indeed be said to be an interesting step.
Interesting.
Just reminding the Great Constellation of such expressions was a big enough feat, but if it had stopped at that level, it wouldn’t have been worth looking into the Void Records.
but.
[In this episode, the other ‘guys’ must have had similar reactions.]
Just by uttering his voice, the body containing the power of existence began to shake.
The entire area vibrates due to the shaking of the body.
The vibrations became waves and countless microcosms were subject to him. It caused resonance in countless worlds created in that universe.
With that alone, the universe of those of lower level among the subjugated constellations would have disappeared.
[Master….]
[Fixed….]
Several constellations raised their voices in embarrassment.
Dozens, hundreds, and thousands of constellations reveal their presence and plead.
Archeopteryx didn’t care.
Even at this moment, numerous constellations are being born and dying.
The weak disappear and the strong survive and become an even more brilliant constellation.
He is the highest being among those constellations.
Because it is a being that has countless constellations that have at least one ‘universe’ under its command.
so.
[Tell me.]
Archeopteryx asked the constellation bound in front of him.
A predator of the three thousand worlds of the lower constellations.
A kid who only has one microcosm.
[Higher Constellation ‘Dragon with Five Hearts’. Intermediate constellation ‘The Demon King who defies fate’. and you. Lesser Constellation ‘Predator of the Three Thousand Worlds’.]
There was no emotion attached.
[You guys don’t know your role in the constellation war.]
I’m just asking.
These guys are desperate to survive by somehow joining the ranks of the powers that be.
Why the play of the great constellations?
[Are you going on such a rampage in the war of constellations?]
With such a feeble power that he could deny existence itself if he wanted to, he somehow bared his teeth.
Even now, when he is trapped and unable to transform into a transcendental being, why is he looking at himself like that?
Archeopteryx asked an innocent question.
The bound predator lowered his head in silence.
The constellations that were watching clicked their tongues at that cheeky appearance.
[….]
Three Thousand Worlds.
Among the many universes, it is at the bottom. I have no interest in reading the records of the low-level constellations that were born there.
If he hadn’t devoured several of the constellations under his command and recently displayed an eccentric act of destroying a middle-level constellation, we wouldn’t have had to face him like this.
It is different now that the connection between the predator and the demon king has been confirmed through the Void Rock.
[Release the binding.]
At Archeopteryx’s command, the powers that bound the predator’s body were released one by one.
just as expected.
As soon as the predator raised its body, it transformed into a transcendental body and revealed its fighting spirit.
Ugh. Wow.
The star power, which was like the maw of an animal, began to gradually expand its territory.
Predation.
The power that gave birth to him as a constellation.
The result of the seeds sown by the Demon King who headed outward first.
What is surprising is that that power also applies to constellations.
And now.
It is pushing its mouth towards itself, the great constellation.
under. haha. ha ha ha.
de. Deed. Hehehe.
Every time he laughed, the universe vibrated and the constellations trembled.
[Predator. This guy is even more absurd than I expected.]
Ssssss.
With just one word from him, the maw of predation disappeared without a trace.
The predator flinched, widened its distance and looked around.
[Be careful with your actions. Other children are not this generous.]
As he said those words, the predator’s eyes shook and his body trembled.
This is because the constellations under Archeopteryx began to exert pressure.
There are hundreds of constellations watching from all over the universe.
Among them, there were quite a few middle-level constellations and low-level constellations that surpassed the power of a predator.
Damn.
Cracks began to appear in the predator’s overbody.
It is a one-sided pressure placed on a constellation that cannot even properly defend itself.
If this continues, the predator will lose its status as a constellation and disappear outside of here.
[That’s difficult.]
The predator must not disappear here yet.
[Everyone stop.]
With that one word, the momentum of the constellations calmed down in an instant.
dump.
A constellation of higher rank than me. The predator, who was completely devastated just by receiving so much holy power, fell to his knees.
[I will ask. This is your last mercy, so you had better answer carefully.]
Archeopteryx asked in a gentle voice, unlike before.
It wouldn’t be wrong.
He prides himself on being the most merciful among the few great constellations.
[Where is the demon?]
The constellations watching were agitated at those words.
Yoma (妖魔).
His nickname is ‘The Demon King Who Defies Fate’. He used to be under Archeopteryx when he was a low-level constellation, but has now betrayed him and become a middle-level constellation.
When Archeopteryx mentioned the Yoma’s name, the predator raised its temper without answering.
[If you run wild without knowing the subject, you will soon disappear.]
The predator’s speculation has been sucked into every corner of the universe.
Although it was small compared to the higher-level constellations, it was definitely surprising considering the time it took for it to become a constellation.
The corners of Archeopteryx’s mouth rose once again. This is because I know what the predator’s behavior means just a moment ago.
[I will put a leash on you. Take on the name of the Great Constellation and run wild. You will easily rise to the top constellation.]
If that is not the case.
[What awaits you is immediate extinction.] It is
not an offer, but a message that cannot be refused.
Hwiiii.
The wind blew around the predator.
It meant that depending on the answer, the Transcendental Body would be cut to pieces.
at that time.
[That is difficult.]
A foreign voice rang out from among the constellations.
Within.
Grumbling.
A part of the universe was set on fire.
A man walked out of the fiery crack.
[The boy who left his parents has returned.]
Archeopteryx’s voice was full of joy.
A mid-level constellation, a demon king who defies fate.
The Irregular, who was once depended on, has now become a thorn in the side of the Constellations.
Grumbling. Hwareuk.
A transcendental body overflowing with red and blue flames.
A presence that was on a different level from what the predator had revealed a moment ago countered the sexual power pressing against me.
[It’s a demon. [You have achieved a level of usefulness.]
Even if you compare it to the children who are the immediate equivalent of your personal guard in the middle-level constellation, it is a presence that is not inferior.
[It must be because of the birth of this guy.]
Archeopteryx said as he looked at the predator he was restraining.
They share the same universe of origin and even had a great influence on the birth of the constellations.
We will have to find out later what purpose the control universe had for measuring the level of a youma to intermediate level.
now.
[Catch the demon alive.]
At Archeopteryx’s command, the waiting constellations began to appear one by one.
Suddenly, the number of constellations began to exceed ten and then twenty.
In a split second, the yoma took over the predator’s side.
[Are you okay?]
the Demon King asked indifferently, creating a flame.
Grrrr.
Gray-colored flames engulfed the predator.
With that alone, the cracked Overmind was regenerated.
He used his power to restore the damaged character.
Grand Duke Lucifer from the Three Thousand Worlds.
It is a power that utilizes the authority he possessed.
The predator worked its body and exhaled.?
[sorry. But I didn’t let down my guard.]
It was a dry voice without any pitch. It was no different for youmas.
[Know. Maintaining one’s sanity in front of the Great Constellation is not something that can be done with ordinary willpower. The signal was appropriate.]
A little while ago, the predator was showing off his enthusiasm to the point of overdoing it.
Although it was too small to be considered an attack, thanks to the struggle, the youma was able to recognize the predator’s situation.
The Demon King calmly raised his presence.
[What about recovery?]
[If you just open the way… escape is possible.]
[That’s good. The zodiac is waiting.]
The Demon King’s flame turned green. We are trying to use spatial movement.
Even though it is not the main body, it invades the territory of the great constellation and moves through space?
[You became bolder while I was not seeing you.]
Archeopteryx smiled and quietly watched the Demon King’s actions.
That alone caused the Demon King’s flame to waver unsteadily.
The Yoma’s eyes met Archeopteryx.
[Has he foreseen the future?]
[What do you think?]
[…]
The yoma spread his hands without answering.
The white burning flame threw out a mask.
A deformed shape with two curved horns and two molars.
Sigh.
As soon as the yoma wore the mask, his holy power was amplified.
Grumbling. Hwareuk. Grumbling.
Red White Black Blue Green.
and.
Dozens of fireworks of mixed colors swirled and formed a single pillar.
It is absolutely not a power that a mid-level constellation can exert.
No, this is more than an ordinary high-level constellation…
When the constellations are just sparkling in situations that cannot be understood.
In the shadow of a burning flame in the form of a pillar.
Ugh.
The predator’s maw bared its teeth.
This also has different holy power than when he was easily stopped by the Constellations just a moment ago.
[…!!]
Grrrrrrr.
Ugh.
As the burning pillar illuminates the surroundings, the area of the mouth revealed through the gap in the pillar also rapidly expands.
Who could commit such atrocities in the realm of the Great Constellation?
If someone did not know this, they would have thought that the great constellations had broken the rules and started a war.
Archeopteryx watched with a happy smile as it performed aiki (joint techniques) allowed only to a few constellations.
It was an instant.
The predator and the yoma pulled themselves out of the macrocosm.
[He’s still an interesting guy.]
Contrary to what he said, he clicked his tongue at the traces that made it look like Archeopteryx had torn its own universe apart.
A subject who did not even become a high-level constellation.
Using Aiki is not enough, but leaving a mark on the universe of the Great Constellation?
Isn’t that something you are willing to do, but also feel embarrassed about?
Click, click, click.
An old man’s laughter spread throughout the universe.
[I will chase you.]
High Constellation Helmut, prostrate next to Archeopteryx, quietly opened his mouth.
[What will the other guys say if you hit them with all your might?]
[But… the Chinese zodiac is this time too…]
[There’s nothing to worry about. This time, the future will be different from before.]
Archeopteryx spread out its beak-like hand.
A world made of fire unfolded in the air.
The flame that was connected to that place was dying out.
[This is…]
[Three thousand worlds. This is the universe where demons and predators were born.]
[When…!!]
The power of a constellation is based on the universe it comes from.
However, if you almost ripped off the universe you came from like this…
[What was destroyed was the yoma’s universe. The universe of the predator still remains.]
The universe of origin is closely related to the sacred power of the constellation.
It won’t disappear immediately, but the yoma’s power will decrease quickly.
[If things continue like this, we won’t be able to avoid extinction…]
Despite Helmut’s prediction, Archeopteryx just smiled.
I was looking forward to the next action of the yoma and his group.
[Now, what choice will you make?]
Contrary to the joyful voice.
The eyes scanning the Void Rock were directed towards the future.
