The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 277
◈ Episode 277 New Method (2)
“… When you say that you can end this situation quickly, do you literally mean that you have found a way to deal with the Avatars more quickly?”
The guide nodded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“that’s right. “Of course, I’m not sure yet.”
“What is that?”
“Manifestation.”
“…manifestation?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, she spoke positively.
“I told you earlier, right? The dwarf wanted your body. What that means is that just now, you were trying to manifest yourself using your body as a medium.”
“however?”
“As far as I know, the eight incarnations sealed by me all have their own bodies. The important thing here is that it is impossible for incarnations to manifest in anything other than their own bodies.”
“…Impossible? “Then why did you need my body?”
As Kim Joo-hyuk spoke with a puzzled expression, the guide continued with a smile on his face.
“Did I tell you? “What we found out is that the dwarf needs your body for the incarnation of the Avatar.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk nodded once and gestured as if to continue speaking, she continued.
“What that means is that dwarves have the skill to force an incarnation to appear in another body. And if my assumption is correct, we can use the technology to force that incarnation to appear.”
“…We can process the incarnation by manifesting it in the body we want?”
The guide smiled and spoke at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
“That’s the right answer. “If you can do that, you can make the incarnations appear and destroy them before they even come down.”
“Is that possible?”
“If the dwarves really have it like I think, then it’s possible.”
“What is that again?”
When Kim Joo-hyuk asked, this time Zhong Li-kwon, who had been quietly listening to the story, came forward and opened his mouth.
“That is something called the ‘Lotus of Reincarnation.’”
“…The lotus of reincarnation?”
As Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head and spoke, Zhong Li-quan cleared his throat and started talking as if he wanted to explain in earnest.
“In other words, the lotus of reincarnation is something that the real god who created the incarnations had, right?”
“That’s right. And the power of the lotus flower of reincarnation is the ability to deal with reincarnation, one of the laws of the world. In short, if you have that lotus flower, you can twist the cycle of reincarnation and make the souls of the incarnations in the sealed body appear in the desired body.”
“…Can’t you use that in battle too?”
Kim Joo-hyuk asked seriously, but Zhong Li-quan shook his head.
“I’m sorry, but the Lotus of Reincarnation cannot be used in battle. “It takes a lot of strength to use it in the first place, and in order to twist reincarnation, the opponent must be mentally or physically unable to move.”
“In short, this is the perfect ability for those who are sealed, right?”
“That’s right.”
Kim Joo-hyuk stuck his tongue out at Zong Li-kwon’s words.
“How on earth do dwarves have such things? “Isn’t that a really great thing?”
“Right.”
“But how?”
“Well… it hasn’t been confirmed that I have it yet, but it seems likely that I have it. “In the first place, the dwarf was with the eight incarnations when they killed the god.”
The guide thought for a moment and spoke.
“Considering the dwarf’s abilities, there is a high probability that he sneaked it.”
“…I guess I should go to the place where the dwarves are sealed.”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been listening to her in silence, muttered that and then spoke as if he did not understand.
“But there’s one thing I don’t understand.”
“What?”
“Why on earth did the dwarf need my body? If you listen to the story now, those guys didn’t need a body to manifest in the first place, right?”
“yes?”
“But why do you need my body? “Do you want to manifest a little faster?”
She spoke immediately after hearing Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
“Maybe that was the reason, but it’s more likely that the more realistic reason was simply that I needed your body.”
“…You just needed my body?”
“Among the eight incarnations, the dwarves have particularly weaker weapons than the other incarnations. I think you were probably trying to solve it with your body. In addition, there are merits to manifesting a little faster.”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if he understood what the guide said and spoke.
“…Then can we immediately head to the place where the dwarves were sealed?”
“Are you planning to leave now?”
“Isn’t it better to move as quickly as possible? “In the first place, we don’t know when the seal will be released, right?”
“That’s true, but…”
The guide said, looking at Kim Joo-hyuk with an expression of contemplation.
“If you say that, let’s move right away tomorrow because if you say you’re going quickly, I have to prepare something too.”
“Then I guess I can just rest for a day.”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded at her words and said so.
Then, I suddenly remembered the situation from earlier and said.
“Oh, right.”
“what’s the matter?”
“Now that you think about it, I have something to ask you.”
“Do you want to ask me something?”
In response to the guide’s question, Kim Joo-hyuk told the guide about the situation when he was with Baekho earlier.
“So that guy suddenly said something like that because his memories haven’t come back yet? But at least I heard from Zhong Liquan that I don’t have that kind of relationship. Isn’t that true?”
Let’s look at the guide and Jong Li-kwon as Kim Joo-hyuk explains the story that happened with his ex Baekho earlier.
“…hmm.”
“I see…”
“I see…”
The guide and Zhong Liquan opened their mouths while looking at Kim Joo-hyuk with a very subtle expression.
“Why are you reacting like that all of a sudden?”
“No, well… I’m sure it doesn’t feel like a white tiger.”
“yes? It definitely doesn’t feel like a white tiger…”
“Then it’s either not.”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
However, despite Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, the two spoke with very subtle expressions as if they were continuing their concerns.
“Well, it’s not like that.”
“But what should I say? “It’s a bit difficult to explain it that way.”
“Honestly, isn’t it more dangerous now?”
“That’s right….”
“???”
Kim Joo-hyuk frowned and said as if he couldn’t understand at all, looking at the two suddenly continuing their conversation among themselves.
“No, don’t talk like that, just say it clearly. “What on earth do you have with me?”
Zhong Liquan and the guide looked at each other with subtle expressions and then spoke.
“…ruin?”
####
Kim Joo-hyuk started doing the things he couldn’t do during the day when the guide told him to wait, saying that he had to prepare something first.
The first thing I did right away was to meet Dowang and Mu-gwang.
They had already met face to face twice, but because they had other things to do, they couldn’t talk at length, so Kim Joo-hyuk went to talk to them first.
After talking to those two in moderation, the next people Kim Joo-hyuk went to meet were.
“long time no see.”
“…Are things going well above?”
“It feels like it’s been a long time since I last saw you.”
They were Black Cat and Adelia Bentrick.
After going up to the labyrinth, Kim Joo-hyuk was so busy with work that he didn’t have much time to see them, so Kim Joo-hyuk took the time to meet them and listen to them talk about how the world is going.
Of course, there was nothing special about the story of how the world operates today.
Anyway, the big problem had already been solved by Kim Joo-hyuk.
Therefore, the stories Kim Joo-hyuk heard about the world were often very trivial stories rather than stories about major issues.
“Currently, the most promising talents at Valhalla Academy are Soyeon Yoo and Sehyuk Oh. In the case of those two, even though their residences have already been confirmed, offers from other guilds are constantly coming in.”
“okay?”
“Furthermore, it seems like some of the constellations are even saying that they want to bring those two into the Tower of Destruction and teach them.”
“ah.”
Kim Joo-hyuk opened his mouth with a strange exclamation as if he finally remembered what Black Cat said.
“So, how is the Tower of Destruction doing?”
Black Cat nodded and answered Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“Yes, I understand that the Tower of Destruction is operating without any problems. Rather, I heard that these days, after a city was built inside the Tower of Destruction, there were no more fights.”
“hmm? “A city is growing inside the Tower of Destruction?”
“That’s right.”
Kim Joo-hyuk thought about Black Cat’s words for a moment, then remembered how his disciples once told him how they managed the Tower of Destruction, and nodded.
“Still, it seems to be going well.”
“yes. It doesn’t seem like the Constellations are particularly dissatisfied with living in the Tower of Destruction. “There…”
“There?”
“I think things are going better because the disciples gave such a strong threat.”
At Black Cat’s words, Kim Joo-hyuk nodded for a moment and then slightly turned his gaze to look at the scenery outside the market.
And after some time has passed.
“so.”
Kim Joo-hyuk turned his gaze forward again and opened his mouth.
“Are you guys dating?”
The reason why Kim Joo-hyuk asked such a question.
That’s because Black Cat and Adelia Bentrick looked very close.
No, if they just seemed close, I wouldn’t have asked this question, but Adelia Bentrick and Black Cat were so close that anyone would say they were close to each other right now.
“Hmm. That is.”
“If I’m not there, I’ll just climb up there.”
“Hmm…”
Adelia Bentrick blushed and fell slightly at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk smiled and thought as he did not let go of the hand he was holding with Black Cat.
‘Were they this close?’
Kim Joo-hyuk rewinds his memories.
However, he slightly tilted his head because it felt like their relationship wasn’t particularly special enough to warrant this kind of relationship.
‘Well, they probably did it because they liked it.’
Kim Joo-hyuk soon thought about that and ended it with a shrug of his shoulders. After talking a little more with the two people who were shyly holding each other’s hands, he went out.
And so the next day.
“ruler.”
As the guide said, she passed one item to Kim Joo-hyuk, who came up again after spending about a day there.
What Kim Joo-hyuk is holding in his hand is a pink flower petal.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk soon realized that it was made of magical power, looked at the guide, and asked.
“This?”
“If you take it with you, you will immediately find the Lotus of Reincarnation.”
“You mean this acts as a guide?”
“that’s right. “Now all we have to do is get going.”
Guide’s words.
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded once and looked at Zhong Li-kwon.
“The preparations have already been completed. “If you find the lotus of reincarnation and put power into this magic sphere, I will create a door again.”
With those words, Zhong Li-quan gave Kim Joo-hyuk a round magic sphere.
“Now then, let’s go.”
Kim Joo-hyuk smiled and walked towards the paper door that Zhong Li-quan had made.
