-The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, shouts that this is nonsense.
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, yells at the contractor to stand up immediately.
Messages proving Pan’s feelings came to mind one after another.
But the man was already out of his mind.
No, originally, his mind was polluted and he seemed to be out of his mind, but now, with Se-un’s ‘fear’ added to it, it was impossible to even make a judgment call.
“Eek… … .”
He lies on the floor, hugging the panflute tightly as if it were a treasure.
In the first place, it was abnormal for an ordinary player to accept the power of the constellations to this extent.
When I first saw it, the deformation didn’t seem that severe.
Perhaps because he had used quite a bit of his strength in the battle with Seun, now his skin was covered in beast hair and even had small horns growing out of his head.
This is evidence that the life force of the contractor is being sucked out by the power of the constellation.
If the fairy tale had reached that level, most of the life force would have already been consumed.
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Bowed’, wants you to kill that beast quickly and return the sword.
The battle is already over.
The man in front of Seun lost his mind, and all the monsters around him were eliminated.
With his father’s authority behind him, he was able to trample on Pan’s pride, which was infinitely high compared to his status.
but.
‘This won’t do.’
Up to this point, it was just revenge in this life. Although Pan didn’t know it, Se-woon had no intention of stopping his revenge here.
“It’s funny. God is so petty that he clings to humans and tries to get revenge.”
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, makes a bewildered expression, wondering if he is talking to himself right now.
“Yeah, you. You don’t have the courage to go to the demon, but you have the pride to cling to a human and come to me, right?”
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Who Plays Chaos’, cannot accept a situation where a human being dares to provoke him.
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’ smiles bitterly at your words.
“What, is that wrong? If you’re going to bother me, why don’t you go find Mamon right now instead of me?”
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, spreads its black wings wide and says, “The Manma Hall will always be open, so come if you want.”
-The face of the constellation ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’ turns red as if it’s going to burst.
“See, he’s powerless himself, but he only relies on his father’s support and bullies people. Oh, I guess that’s what they call a ‘Papa’s Boy’?”
-Constellation, it seems like something snaps in the head of the ‘Goat Playing Confusion’.
Papa Boy.
It was a nickname given to Pan by some of the constellations that he learned while climbing the tower.
In fact, it’s not a lie. It was Pan who was carrying his father’s glory on his back and showing off on such a lowly topic.
This fact was obvious to anyone, not just Se-un.
But for these guys, facts are the most painful thing, more so than any kind of incitement or fabrication.
As evidence of that.
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, throws Syrinx to the ground and cries loudly.
The anger of the board appeared in the form of a message right before Se-un’s eyes.
Even if it wasn’t a message, I felt the hot gaze on my head like when I first got Mamon’s attention.
“Hee, eek! Eeeeek!”
The body of the man who made the contract with the board trembles.
The horns that were hidden by the hair grow long and dark brown hair grows wildly all over the body. The lower face sticks out like an animal, and red energy flashes from the pupils that are torn horizontally.
-The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, attempts to descend!
Gurrrrrr!
The man’s body swells up as if it might burst.
Descent.
It is an action that affects the tower by inhabiting the body of the believer who follows it.
Since it is originally forbidden for the constellations to directly influence the tower, there are various restrictions that follow.
First, by breaking the law of causality, the status as a constellation is lowered.
Second, the system will be watched with caution by other constellations as well.
And the last third.
In fact, it is this last limitation that makes the constellations more cautious and reluctant to descend than the first two.
That’s right.
Crunch-
“Ugh-”
It was a penalty that was received when attacked by an enemy while in a descended state.
-The constellation, the ‘Goat that Plays Chaos’, attempts to descend upon us are foiled!
-The power that the constellation ‘The Goat that Plays Chaos’ put into the descent is disappearing!
-Some of the power of the constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, is collapsing!
-The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’ screams!
“Well, who would try to perform a ritual in front of everyone?”
The man’s head, now completely transformed into that of a mountain goat, falls to the floor.
This is exactly why Seun provoked the board.
Before returning, Se-Woon had been teased by Pan, so he knew Pan’s personality better than anyone else.
It was easy to predict that emotions would take precedence over reason and attempt to descend.
“Kuaaaah!”
The man’s head, no, the goat’s head, fell to the ground and screamed.
Even though the descent was aborted, it inherited the emotions of the main body as it already had a certain level of power.
“How dare you, how dare you, how dare you! Forgive me, I will not forgive you!”
The goat’s head looked grotesque and let out a scream.
Wow, the curse of the constellations.
If it were another player, just hearing that voice would have made them tremble in fear, but Se-Woon didn’t show even the slightest hint of fear.
Rather, it was the most pleasant appearance among those seen after the regression.
“Or so.”
That’s understandable, because it lowered the level of the board that I had hated and cursed so much. It was the first time I felt a sense of satisfaction and pride in my regression.
It feels like something has opened up in my chest!
How could you not like it?
Besides, Se-un’s revenge didn’t end there.
‘Maybe it’s possible.’
Se-woon stretched out his hand.
At that sight, the goat’s hair stood on end with a hint of anxiety.
“Wh, what are you trying to do! If you touch me any more, Father won’t let you go… … .”
“The power of gluttony.”
Kwajik!
“… … !”
-The Hungry Prince gapes, saying it’s been a long time since he’s had such luxurious junk food.
The teeth of Beelzebub, the god of gluttony, rose up around the mountain goat.
The goat’s face turned into a look of horror, and just above it, sharp teeth seemed to be blocked by something unseen, drawing closer with a ‘cracking, cracking!’ sound.
The invisible wall. That was soon to be ‘the gap’.
A situation where the spirit that had possessed the believer while attempting to conquer the spirit world, now has only a weak power left and is trying to return to its master.
That is.
Kwajik!!
“Kuaaaah!”
He couldn’t last even a few seconds and was pierced by Beelzebub’s fangs.
The teeth continued to explore the goat’s head without stopping. They crushed the sharp horns and swallowed the body along with its black-brown fur.
“My, my rank! This can’t be happening! You! What on earth did you do to gain the power of the two demons… …!”
Kwajik-
Before he could finish speaking, the goat’s eyes burst open and its very existence disappeared.
With this, the board lost all its power, unable to absorb even the remnants of the spell it had used when attempting to descend.
It was already a constellation of low rank, so if it were to be lowered further.
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, has fallen below the standard.
– The constellation, ‘The Goat Playing Chaos’, is deprived of its authority in the system because its status does not meet the standards.
It is clear that it will no longer be able to wield its power as a constellation.
In this way, Seun will not have to worry about any aftereffects.
If there’s anything to worry about, it’s Zeus, the king of Olympus, who has a strong halo behind him. In fact, if the relationship between the two is something that Seun found out while climbing the tower, then there’s no need to worry about this either.
Well, Zeus, contrary to Pan’s words.
-The constellation, ‘the eagle that rules over lightning’ frowns and looks down at his worthless son.
– The constellation, ‘the eagle that rules over lightning’, strikes the leg of her fallen son with a lightning bolt and throws him to a corner of Olympus.
Because I didn’t love the board.
Rather, it is said that he was later thrown into the prison of Olympus because he always caused trouble and accidents like a scoundrel and undermined his authority.
Rather than resenting Se-woon, he might be secretly happy that he took care of his son instead.
Well, at least on the surface.
-The constellation, ‘Eagle that rules lightning’ warns that it will be watching your future actions.
Of course, it would be normal for a king to react like that.
Unless there is something unusual, Zeus will never again touch the earth with this matter.
-Constellation, ‘The Crow with the Head Down’ sticks out his tongue, saying that you are the first player to drop a constellation during the tutorial.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, gnaws at the meat of a mountain goat, exclaiming that although it has a gamey smell, its deep flavor is the best!
Honestly, it was half a gamble.
No matter how great the power of gluttony was, it was unknown whether the power unleashed by Seun’s hands would be able to chew up the ranks of the constellations.
But is it still the case that the power of the demon is somehow different?
Beelzebub was happily savoring the taste of his prey, not caring at all about its identity.
‘But why aren’t the abilities being absorbed?’
Normally, a message related to predation would have popped up a long time ago, but this time, nothing appeared.
Since it had already devoured the rank of the constellation, it seemed like it would be difficult for Seun to absorb it.
Unfortunately, even Seun cannot interfere with the system.
So instead of getting my hopes up, I picked up the pan flute that had fallen alone in the place where the mountain goat had disappeared.
It was unlikely that Pan would have bestowed upon him his sacred relic, the Syrinx, but when he recalled the man handling the monster, there was a high probability that it was imbued with Pan’s power, however faintly.
[ Instrument resembling a fairy ]
Category: Musical Instruments
Grade: B
Description: This is a musical instrument made by weaving reeds, and it has inherited the power of the sacred object, albeit weakly, and is imbued with the power of the god of wood.
Ability: 1. Courtship of the Shepherd – Depending on the level of your performance, you can control animal-like monsters.
2. Scream of Terror – Causes enemies to ‘fear’ depending on the level of performance.
3. Cry of Confusion – Causes enemies to ‘confuse’ depending on the level of play.
“Ohh.”
An instrument that resembles a fairy.
As it was imbued with the power of Syrinx, the instrument of the board, its abilities were similar to those of Syrinx that Seun knew.
The item grade also reached B-class, the same as Durandal.
Of course, in the case of Durandal, the grade and ability values were all lowered due to the seal.
However, there is one thing that is regrettable.
“Depending on the level of performance… … .”
As the ability is outstanding, the standards will also be high.
Also, upon closer inspection, I noticed that only one of those three could be used when starting a performance.
As great as its abilities are, it is an item that is extremely difficult to use.
Still, you never know when or how it might come in handy.
Se-Woon put the panflute into his subspace pocket and turned his back.
And at that moment.
– Successfully preyed on the ‘level of the board’.
A message flashed through Se-un’s mind, making his eyes sparkle.
