The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 262
◈ Episode 262. Unexpected Benefit (4)
Exactly a week later, Kim Joo-hyuk’s body completely recovered.
In fact, it was two days ago when Kim Ju-hyuk decided that he could move his body and fight sufficiently, but since he had to go to the mountain where the mountain spirits were sealed, he rested a little longer.
“…So, the gravity stone is underneath that island?”
At the time when his body fully recovered, Kim Joo-hyuk was asking a question to his guide.
“To be exact, it’s underground in the center of the island. It’ll probably be easy to get there. “If you look in the center of the island, there will definitely be a passage somewhere.”
“So, all I have to do is go into that passage and stick this blade in?”
Kim Joo-hyuk said that and looked at the blade leaning against the wall.
Even if you look at it, it is a day of inaction that is too big for a person to bear.
The guide spoke.
“that’s right. As a result, the island created by the incarnation of Sanje will collapse and be buried underwater. If that happens, all the mountaineers will die.”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded at her story and then picked up the inaction blade.
“…It might be a little difficult to carry this.”
Contrary to its name, the Blade of Inaction had already lost all of its teeth.
Nevertheless, the reason why Kim Joo-hyuk said it would be difficult to carry it is because of the size of the blade.
The size of the blade, which looked so large at first glance, seemed very cumbersome for Kim Joo-hyuk to hold and move, so Kim Joo-hyuk glanced back at the guide.
“I’m sorry, but I’m good at finding directions, but I can’t make heavy things lighter or smaller.”
“That’s a bit disappointing.”
“I am not an all-rounder.”
When the guide shrugged his shoulders at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, he raised the blade of the inaction as if there was nothing he could do.
“Hmm…”
It was quite heavy by his standards, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t carry it, so Kim Joo-hyuk lifted the blade once or twice as if he were lifting dumbbells.
“Then tell me the way now.”
Soon he turned to the guide and said so.

The huge mountain where the mountain ancestors were sealed had been in a very disorganized state these days.
One of the reasons is because the leader of the mountaineers went out just a few days ago.
In fact, that wasn’t the only thing that made the atmosphere among the mountaineers awkward.
Even if the leader went out, the mountaineers could feel the leader’s magic controlling them.
Thanks to the powerful magical power that the leader of the Sangeo received from Hwasin, each individual Sanjeo was able to feel his presence no matter how far away the leader was.
However, a few days ago, when the leader’s magical power was no longer felt, the atmosphere of the Sanjeos began to become chaotic.
That meant that their leader had died.
The news that their leader had died meant that a new leader had to be chosen, so the mountaineers had not been able to come together well recently.
Although the group ran well in the first place because there was a leader, Sanjeo’s basic characteristic was greed.
From the moment the leader disappeared, the mountaineers were no longer very interested in what happened to their leader.
For them, it is not important that the ‘boss’ has disappeared. Because the important thing was that the boss ‘disappeared’.
Thanks to this, the current atmosphere within the Sanjeo clan began to look like they were dividing sides and fighting a fratricidal battle.
Eventually, not long after, the mountaineers divided themselves into factions and began to fight each other.
A situation where one’s own people kill one’s own people.
But there was no one who could stop their greed.
That’s why they started fighting for days and days, killing each other and fighting to rise above.
The slaughter that took place throughout the sealed area day and night began to rapidly reduce the number of mountaineers.
In the end, it came to conventional times.
“…Now I’m the new boss!”
After such a fratricidal fight, the mountaineers, who had been killing each other indiscriminately, were finally able to elect a new representative only after making countless sacrifices.
“Waaah!”
A faction created by a new leader who is very happy with him.
Other than that, the other factions all had sad expressions or were unable to see this scene in the first place.
Because a considerable number of Sanjeo died as a result of their struggle to become the leader.
However, Sanje, who had just become the new boss, did not care about such trivial things.
Anyway, the longer you live, the more the population of Sanjeo will return to what it used to be.
That’s why he screamed loudly in the joy of victory.
At that point.
“…Why is everything like this here again?”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who used the ice sword to enter the mountain camp, looked puzzled as he saw the inside of the mountain camp, which had changed as if a war had occurred before he could do anything.
“…what’s the matter?”
Kim Joo-hyuk looks around.
What he could see were the corpses of numerous mountaineers.
Even if you look here, there are corpses.
If you look over there, there’s a corpse.
No matter where he looked, all he could see were corpses. Kim Joo-hyuk had a blank expression for a moment, but then shrugged his shoulders.
‘I guess they fought among themselves.’
Kim Joo-hyuk thought like that and moved his body.
In fact, he had no way of knowing how something like this had happened.
Above all, Kim Joo-hyuk had no particular desire to know what happened to the Sanjeos and how they ended up like this.
In the end, the reason Kim Joo-hyuk came here was to bury all of these people underwater.
‘Well, seeing as there are a lot of people dead, I guess I’ll finish this job pretty easily.’
Kim Joo-hyuk recalled his guide’s words.
It is clear that he has become stronger now, but Sanjeo is said to be fundamentally strong as an individual and should never be ignored.
‘…I definitely had a great time.’
As Kim Joo-hyuk looked at the traces of the mountain with holes here and there above the corpses of countless mountain beasts, he once again realized the strength of the mountain beasts, but even for a moment, he immediately began to move his body.
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was moving over the corpses of mountaineers spread out between the mountains, was soon able to discover the center of the island.
‘Is it that place?’
In the center of the island, there was a place prepared to go underground as if it were here.
Of course, there were no guards guarding the stairs leading down, so Kim Joo-hyuk was able to go down to the island’s basement with great ease.
“…oh.”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who soon went underground, was able to see an incredibly large cavity and a huge stone floating in the middle of the cavity.
‘That looks like a gravity stone.’
I don’t feel any magical power.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk, who confirmed that a slightly different force was hovering over that huge stone, took out the blade of inaction that was strapped to his back as if he had no hesitation.
‘The moment you insert the blade of inaction into the gravity stone, the power of the gravity stone completely disappears, which means the island collapses in an instant.’
‘So you should never waste time. After hitting the gravity stone with the blade of inaction, you must run outside or you may be swept away by the collapsing earth.’
Kim Joo-hyuk, who put the words of the guide that came to mind as soon as he took out the blade of inaction, immediately jumped towards Gravity Castle as if there was nothing more to do.
Wow!
He immediately stuck the blade of inaction into the gravity stone.
Kwajik-kwajijijijik!
The gravity stone begins to split in an instant.
Kim Joo-hyuk smiled as he looked at it.
He immediately moved his body and ran off the island.
At the same time, a huge tremor echoed throughout the island.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk immediately kicked off the ground and flew into the sky, quickly reaching the front where the seal was placed.
“Sigh!”
He took out the ice sword, pierced the seal in an instant, and escaped off the island very cleanly.
Coogggggggggggeuk-!!!!!
I laughed as I watched the island begin to break apart, making a truly tremendous noise.
“I told you, right? “I touched the wrong person.”

He was originally one of many Sanzers.
At the same time, originally, he was in a position where he could no longer climb beyond the numerous mountain bases.
Above him was a leader who commanded everyone, and he could only follow him.
But desire continued to burn in his heart.
The desire to one day sit in the position of the boss who controls all the mountaineers.
Of course, I knew it was impossible.
It’s already been a long time since the man above him became the boss, and he already had a firm grip on this mountain.
However, he was constantly burning his desire, and eventually the opportunity came.
The day the leader who had ruled Sanjeo for hundreds of years died.
Therefore, he expressed his desire without hesitation at a time when he could not feel the boss’s magic.
The desire to become the leader of these mountaineers.
Of course, as if he were not the only one with such a desire, many others fought to become the boss, but he ultimately won.
He survived, survived, and eventually became the leader of Sanjeo!
That thrilling pleasure!
“Hehe…!”
Sanjeo, who was now the leader, smiled as he looked at the countless Sanjeo who were kneeling submissively in front of him.
A large number of mountaineers disappeared due to the struggle, but for him, the pleasure of becoming the leader right away outweighed those worries.
In addition, he currently had one very special authority.
‘name…!’
That’s the name.
All living creatures cannot have names.
It is Hwashin’s command to control the mountain spirits efficiently.
Therefore, the only one who has a name is the boss who controls all the mountaineers.
That’s why he, who is now the boss, was able to make a name for himself.
A name that will allow you to build your own history and your own business…!
That’s why Sanje continued to worry.
Not long after, he looked at the mountaineers kneeling towards them as if he had decided and spoke.
“Okay, I decided!”
The one who shouts loudly.
“My name is Superpower!”
Sanjeo… no, the monster who is now the leader smiled at his mouth as if he was very satisfied with his name.
Of course he doesn’t know what that means.
It’s just that the ‘super strength’ that the old boss talked about is a very good thing to have. It is just a name created based on a short phrase.
But what about this and what about that?
He has a name after all!
He survived this struggle and became the leader of Sanjeo, earning a name for himself!
That’s why, with a smile on both sides of his mouth, he rejoiced in making a name for himself.
Thus began the new era of Sanjeo’s leader, ‘Superpower’.

And exactly 30 seconds after that superpower made his name.
Kugggggggggguk ─────!!!!!!!
“…?”
The era of ‘super strength’ began to fade before it even began.
