◈ Episode 117. Massacre of the Constellations (3)
When I returned to the dormitory after killing all the constellations, including Black Rok.
‘I’m dying.’
Kim Joo-hyuk was frowning, feeling his whole body throbbing.
‘Did I use too much force?’
Kim Joo-hyuk certainly went a little too far in order to slaughter all the constellations.
That’s because Kim Joo-hyuk continued to use the powers of the hidden ruler, and in addition, he even manifested a fighting spirit on his body.
However, the real reason why Kim Joo-hyuk is currently feeling tired is.
‘I think it was a little okay until I used Balgwang’s ability. ‘Hyeonshin is a bit harsh.’
It was because of the manifestation.
Of course, Kim Joo-hyuk was able to use her abilities perfectly by manifesting the fighting spirit in his body.
Plus, the guy’s physical abilities are a bit more.
Thanks to this, he was able to cut down the constellations very easily, but unfortunately, Kim Joo-hyuk’s body did not seem ready to accept the incarnation of the fighting spirit.
In fact, all the muscles in his body were screaming just by maintaining the state of manifestation for only 5 to 10 minutes.
‘Well, if this also absorbs the names of the constellations, it will be much better than before.’
Kim Joo-hyuk only collected the names of all the current constellations and did not absorb any of them.
The reason is because of the name of the key keeper contained in this ring.
‘If I can absorb it, I’ll just absorb everything except the key keeper.’
Unfortunately, the guide only taught Kim Joo-hyuk how to use the ring very basicly, and as a result, he did not know how to remove and absorb the name of the leader of the Ten Sins.
Therefore, Kim Joo-hyuk first tried to hold off on absorbing the power of the constellation until he met his guide again.
“How can you know like a ghost and summon me right away?”
“What are you talking about?”
On an evening when Kim Joo-hyuk was frowning because his body was throbbing, he was summoned by a guide.
“I think I can open the arena now that I have the name of the keykeeper.”
I soon heard that from the guide.
“That’s good.”
Kim Joo-hyuk speaks lightly.
The guide looked at Kim Joo-hyuk quietly and then opened his mouth.
“by the way.”
“why.”
“Did you really kill all the constellations that had regained their names? “In this short amount of time?”
A guide who opens his mouth as if he doesn’t understand something.
Looking at her like that, Kim Joo-hyuk responded angrily.
“I tried to ask you earlier, but the conversation moved on to the arena, so I couldn’t say anything. Didn’t you know and called me in the first place?”
“Of course I didn’t know. “In the first place, I can only tell you what’s going on here, but I have no idea how the inside of the labyrinth works.”
“So it’s really purely coincidental?”
“that’s right. In the first place, the reason I summoned you today was to find a proper way to open the arena as a key keeper and tell you about it, but I never thought I would catch the constellations so quickly… … .”
When she mumbled as if she was genuinely surprised, Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head and said.
“Did you catch it quickly?”
“I think I caught it at least three times faster than I expected.”
Kim Joo-hyuk thought for a moment and answered the guide’s words.
“Well, I was lucky.”
“luck?”
Guide’s question.
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded his head.
“ah.”
He let out an exclamation as if something suddenly occurred to him, and then he began to open his mouth.
“Now that I 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 began to explain the sense of discomfort he felt when dealing with former constellations.
“So, what you’re saying is that the guys who came down with names this time are all guys you cut down once?”
“that’s right. “Did you do that too?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
But this time too, the guide shook his head without exception.
“No, I didn’t do it. In the first place, I only have the ability to spy on what the Labyrinth Master is doing in the Labyrinth.”
“In short, there’s nothing you can do other than give me information?”
“… … “I feel a little resentful for some reason, but that’s true. It’s not me who chooses the names sent down, but the guys above.”
After saying that, the guide opened his mouth as if he would soon conclude the story.
“Anyway, let’s get to the point for now. “Anyway, the reason I summoned you this time was to figure out how to open the arena door.”
“Didn’t you say that you would tell me why the arena was closed this time and how it could be of help to me?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“that’s right. “From now on, I will tell you everything one by one, so listen carefully.”
The guide said that and began to open his mouth.

A man wearing a skull mask inside Ilgyo’s hideout, which has now been moved near Valhalla Academy.
No, now he, who was given the name Jeon Ho-beop by Kim Joo-hyuk, recalled the powerlessness of Kim Joo-hyuk he saw yesterday.
Kim Joo-hyuk showed overwhelming strength by using the abilities of his constellation, Tougwi.
No, to be precise, the man in the skull mask focused on Tougwinim’s abilities, not Kim Joo-hyuk’s power.

The ability of Tougwinim that he has been using until now and that the rest of the guardians like him have been using.
‘What was that?’
Jeon Ho-beop recalled the scenery at that time.
Kim Joo-hyuk had four guards watch for any constellations escaping from the island, so they watched from outside the island to see if any constellations were escaping as Kim Joo-hyuk said.
Of course, in fact, at that time, his mind was full of questions about Kim Joo-hyuk.
Because he had already heard information that there were ‘constellations’ on this island.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk said that he was going to kill those Constellations, and instead gave orders to watch for the Constellations that were running away.
Of course, when they first heard that, they didn’t have a single question.
Because Duguwi told me to serve Kim Joo-hyuk.
That’s why they didn’t question it.
In the first place, listening to Tugui was a very natural thing for them.
However, contrary to carrying out orders like that, Jeon Ho-beop, on the other hand, thought that Kim Joo-hyuk was very hasty and foolish.
Because it was natural that a contractor could not defeat the Constellation.
Of course, he guessed that Kim Joo-hyuk disappeared from time to time, and that he was the person who held the constellation that appeared in Hero Academy and World Competition.
After that, thanks to Rania’s sudden appearance, his guess became confirmed.
Because of that, I knew that Kim Joo-hyuk was by no means ordinary, but even so, this was an extremely reckless thing to do.
Of course, Jeon Ho-beop did not complain about Kim Joo-hyuk’s order.
No matter what choice he made, all he had to do was follow Kim Joo-hyuk’s words as Dungwi commanded.
However, even though he followed Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, he was deep down thinking that he could be wrong.
Kim Joo-hyuk clearly signed a contract with Doogwi-nim and was able to borrow his power, but it was not an ability that could be used after just practicing.
‘The opponent is not good either.’
The people Kim Joo-hyuk was trying to deal with were constellations, so he thought they were not good opponents.
Until we actually see Kim Joo-hyuk fighting the Constellations.
‘It seemed like it wasn’t there at all.’
Jeon Ho-beop expressed such simple sentiments.
Tuguunim’s abilities were not flashy.
It also wasn’t that powerful.
Therefore, that was all he could express, but paradoxically, what Jeon Ho-beop said was truly the highest compliment.
Because Tuguunim’s ability was stealth.
Hidden body.
Literally hiding yourself.
Go beyond hiding and make a presence.
Beyond hiding your presence, you hide your perception.
It was Tuguunim’s ability to hide that literally hid the very awareness that he was there.
Yes, in ‘theory’.
However, among the members of Ilgyo, no one was able to hide their knowledge beyond mere presence.
In the first place, hiding awareness beyond presence meant that even the magic power used for stealth had to be hidden, and to do that, an absurd level of magic control was needed.
However, Kim Joo-hyuk did it.
The appearance was eliminated, the presence was eliminated, and previously, the perception was eliminated.
And in that state, Kim Joo-hyuk began to take the lives of the constellations, one by one, who possessed enormous power that humans could never match.
It was never cool or flashy.
I was just calm.
The constellations’ heads simply fly off, their bodies split in half, and they die.
However, seeing Kim Joo-hyuk giving a calm death to all of the constellations, Jeon Ho-beop was rather amazed.
No, beyond admiration, I felt goosebumps running down my entire body.
The same goes for other members of the school who were watching the island.
And the moment when Kim Joo-hyuk, who had begun to take the lives of the constellations, finally killed all the constellations on the island.
Everyone at Ilgyo had no choice but to bow their heads to Kim Joo-hyuk sincerely.
“… … .”
Just by using Tougwinim’s abilities perfectly, the members of Ilgyo realized that Kim Joo-hyuk was a powerhouse of a much higher level than them.
Ugh-!
How long has it been since Jeon Ho-beop thought about the Kim Joo-hyuk he saw yesterday?
He took out his smartphone when he suddenly felt a vibration.
“… … .”
He soon got up from his seat.
####
The central building of the market.
On the top floor of the building, which could be said to be Black Cat’s office, three men and women were sitting facing each other, just like last time.
One of them was Jeon Ho-beop, who came running after receiving a call on his smartphone a little while ago.
The other two were Adelia Bentrick and Black Cat.
“… … .”
“… … .”
“… … .”
The silence that occurred as soon as the three of them gathered together.
Jeon Ho-beop just remained silent as if it didn’t matter if he said anything.
Black Cat, also wearing a cat mask, was strangely moving her eyes here and there as she received notifications from the Constellation.
The next thing we see is her looking at Jeon Ho-beop and Black Cat once, and squirming and moving her body as if she is sitting in a strangely uncomfortable position.
How long did that silence last?
“You’re here.”
With the words of Black Cat suddenly coming out, Kim Joo-hyuk appeared from beyond.
Kim Joo-hyuk, who appeared with a towel around his neck as if he had been training a little while ago, looked at the people already gathered and asked.
“what? Why are you gathered already? “I clearly told you to meet on time.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk showed his smartphone as if to show that it was five minutes before the hour, Black Cat opened her mouth.
“I thought it would be better to get together first, so I brought Adelia with me.”
“I arrived early because it would be rude to be late than the leader.”
The answer to Jeonhobeop that follows.
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if he understood and then sat down.
“Now then, I don’t want to waste your time by asking how you are, so let’s get to the point.”
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at them as they nodded at the next words.
“I think you guys need to get me some stuff.”
He soon said that.
