The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 59

◈ Episode 59 Would you like to be my disciple? (3)

Kim Joo-hyuk has been thinking a lot about constellations recently.

To be more precise, he had been thinking about the constellations quite a bit ever since the guide told him the truth about them.

‘A constellation….’

A constellation.

To be honest, the only thought that came to Kim Joo-hyuk’s mind when he first began to understand this world in earnest and about constellations was, ‘These bastards have ruined all the kids.’

Why did you think that?

Naturally, it seemed to Kim Joo-hyuk that the constellations had really ruined all the children.

‘Yes, of course there are things that are better than before.’

Clearly, in Kim Joo-hyuk’s opinion, there were some things that were better than before.

‘But compared to before, there are more people who can deal with monsters.’

Obviously, when comparing 300 years ago and now, I don’t know if this is the fault of the constellations or the well-managed environment of the dungeon, but there were a lot more hunters… or, in other words, ‘contractors’ compared to before.

The problem is, is there no advantage other than the increased volume?

‘It seems like everyone is just increasing their magical power to borrow the power of the constellations rather than increase their own power.’

I thought it was pathetic last time, but the more I looked at it, the more pathetic it became.

It may seem natural to people of this era, but at least to Kim Joo-hyuk, the act seemed similar to doing useless labor to borrow more of other people’s power.

‘Well, that thought hasn’t changed yet and it’s not the topic I think about.’

The topic Kim Joo-hyuk has been thinking about recently was ‘constellations’ themselves.

‘Those who lost their names became constellations…’

Of course, I was never properly told why the people whose names were stolen from the guide became constellations.

There was no reason to ask in the first place.

However, the point here is not why those who lost their names became constellations, but that those who had even a little bit of fame became constellations.

‘If that’s the case…’

There was a possibility that the students Kim Joo-hyuk raised 300 years ago had become constellations,

and that was a fairly high probability.

‘…Well, I raised it to the point where I don’t go anywhere and get beaten up.’

Of course, not all of the disciples he raised would become Constellations, but I thought that one or two would definitely become Constellations. The disciples raised by Kim Joo

-hyuk are raised to the point where they don’t fit in, although speaking from a teacher’s point of view, they are raised to the point where they can throw away muksabal by themselves if there are people who

mess with them anywhere.

I thought that some of my students would become constellations.

‘It would be nice to be able to see the disciples who became Constellations at this exact moment.’

Kim Joo-hyuk thought so and quenched his appetite, but unfortunately, he had no way to find the disciple who had become a constellation.

‘If you just put the name on it, you’ll find it right away.’

Perhaps because their names were taken away, the constellations started using strange names just by hearing them, so Kim Joo-hyuk ate it as if he was disappointed.

‘Well, as time goes by, I might get a chance to find one or two.’

Even if Kim Joo-hyuk’s appetite was satisfied, he couldn’t go looking for a disciple right away, so he stopped thinking about it any further.

instead.

Sigh!

“Kkiyaaggya!?”

“The right side is empty.”

“Just say it in words…!”

Kim Joo-hyuk moved his gaze to Yan Lang, who was moving her body vigorously in front of him, and began to point out her.

Swish!

Yan Lang was swinging his fist with tears streaming down his face, probably because of the pain from the single blow, and Kim Joo-hyuk was receiving her fist repeatedly on the spot.

“You said the right side is empty?”

“what-!”

Sigh!

“Kkyaaaak!”

“Look, since I can’t explain it in words, wouldn’t you be so kind as to tell me where the empty space is?”

In response to his question, Yanlang said, “Kyaaaaa?” He let out a strange scream and rolled over, holding his side. Then, he saw Kim Joo-hyuk staring at him and became angry.

“Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!! “I understand even if you don’t hit me!?”

“Have you heard?”

“…yo. this?”

Seeing her slightly rolling her eyes at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words and then adding another word, Kim Joo-hyuk chuckled and spoke.

“You don’t know.”

“I know!…Yo!”

“Is it difficult to be polite? Then don’t use it.”

“uh? Is that okay…?”

“In return, I won’t tell you any more.”

“??”

“I have no respect for my teacher, so what’s the point of telling you? huh?”

When Kim Joo-hyuk smiled and opened his mouth, Yan Lang gritted his teeth and thought as if he had been deceived.

‘Have I ever felt this low in pride?’

There wasn’t.

That’s because she was a genius, so much so that her family called her a genius, and there was nothing that could break her pride.

So, to be honest, it was difficult for Yan Lang to tolerate this situation that was happening to her right now.

‘I really want to say calmly that I’ll hit you right away if you think the same thing…!’

The problem is that Kim Joo-hyuk is really… really, really, really obnoxious.

‘Why are you teaching so well!?’

This was because he was teaching Yan Lang so well that he was able to instantly raise her level in just a few days.

It wasn’t just about teaching well.

If it were just that level, Yan Lang would have been proud.

But what about Kim Joo-hyuk?

Teach well.

Beyond teaching well, Kim Joo-hyuk was well aware of Yanrang’s shortcomings, to the point where he felt as if he had possessed her.

In a way, it gives me goosebumps.

Of course, some people could have just seen him hitting Yan Lang and questioned whether Kim Joo-hyuk was just treating her like a toy, but she knew that.

No, I knew about her talent.

Kim Joo-hyuk’s words and his movements allow her to jump several stairs at a time.

so that.

“So you’re not going to use honorifics?”

“Ureutseuyo… I’ll use it”

“What?”

“…bitter.”

“what?”

“Fuck you! “I’m writing it!!!!!!!”

“go?”

“…yo. this.”

Yan Lang internally gritted his teeth at Kim Joo-hyuk’s teasing smile and used a polite word.

‘If my skills grow properly and catch up with you… then I will pay you back…!’

She said that today’s training would be over and made a promise as she looked at Kim Joo-hyuk walking away.

Inside a huge cavity created artificially.

Adelia Bentrick looked at the people starting to take their seats here and there in the communal area and immediately asked the secretary standing behind her.

“What about the detailed preparations?”

“It’s all over. “Now, if the head of the family gives an order, the contact team will move.”

“You probably prepared the contact team as I said, right?”

“yes. Just in case, we sent one ‘processing group’ team as all ‘contact’ people. “I think you probably don’t have to worry about contact.”

Adelia Bentrick nodded and responded to the secretary’s assurance.

“What about the people who produced the joint?”

“We created it with all of our internal staff and those we can control, so there won’t be any problems.”

“What about the magic stone?”

“It’s the same. “As I told you a week ago, I have collected all the magic stones for ‘sanctuary transformation.’”

Adelia Bentrick responded with a smile on her face as if she was satisfied with the secretary’s next words.

“Preparations are complete.”

“yes.”

“Then tell them to move now.”

At Adelia Bentrick’s order, the secretary immediately lowered her head and nodded once, looking at the man waiting behind her.

The man nodded once in response to the secretary’s nod and disappeared in an instant.

The secretary turned her head again and looked at Adelia Bentrick.

“….”

Soon the secretary looked at the object held in Adelia Bentrick’s hand and opened her mouth.

“Matriarch?”

“Why is that?”

“Are you really planning to call the Constellation through sanctuary?”

The secretary’s cautious question.

However, Adelia Bentrick answered very lightly, as if she thought the secretary’s cautious question was funny.

“It’s preparation.”

“Are you ready…?”

“yes. “Be prepared.”

At Adelia Bentrick’s question, the secretary tilted her head inwardly.

I didn’t usually understand her very well, but I’ve never had a harder time understanding her than recently.

‘I only have to deal with one student…’

Of course, the secretary knew very well that the words ‘only a student’ did not include Kim Joo-hyuk.

However, looking at the preparations Adelia Bentrick had made, the secretary had no choice but to view Kim Joo-hyuk as just another student.

That’s because she was preparing so much power that it wouldn’t be strange to say that she was preparing to kill ‘THE ONE’ when she said she was going to catch Kim Joo-hyuk.

‘Almost all of the processing group members are other loud-mouthed contractors, plus contractors from other families…’

The secretary thought as she looked at the dagger in Adelia Ventrick’s hand.

‘…even the family relics.’

During the preparation process, which seemed to contain Kim Joo-hyuk’s will to never let him live, the secretary felt sorry for him, although it was only for a moment.

‘No matter how much of a monster you are called, you won’t be able to break through this.’

No matter how much Kim Joo-hyuk was called a monster, he was ultimately a human being who did not even have a contract with the Constellation.

And since it was close to impossible for a human to stop what Adelia Bentrick had prepared, the secretary quietly bowed her head and prayed for Kim Joo-hyuk to rest in peace.

And so the secretary prayed for Kim Joo-hyuk’s soul for 10 minutes.

“…It’s a little late.”

“They are probably trying to work in a quiet place because they have been instructed to avoid exposure as much as possible.”

“is that so?”

That’s what the secretary responded to Adelia Bentrick’s words.

Then again, 20 minutes have passed.

“…Not yet?”

In response to Adelia Bentrick’s question, the secretary lowered her head and opened her mouth.

“…I will check separately.”

The secretary disappeared somewhere along with him.

After checking on the missing secretary, Adelia Bentrick began to wait a little longer.

It has been 30 minutes since Adelia Bentrick gave the order.

The secretary is back.

“….”

And with a very bad expression.

“What happened?”

Adelia Bentrick looked at his face and opened her mouth without stopping her face from automatically frowning.

The secretary looked at Adelia Bentrick as if she had no shame and opened her mouth.

“…It seems like the entire contact team was hit.”

And to the secretary’s words.

Crackle!

Adelia Bentrick could not help but frown like a demon.
