The Main Character Competes With Quantity

018. Constellations are horny, palms are flying (3)

In the backroom of the largest castle on this continent, five women were sitting around a round table with serious expressions on their faces.

Their appearances are slightly different, probably from different worlds, but all of them are quite beauties. Precious accessories and fancy dresses, which are doubtful of their value, explain their social status.

“… … .”

The five women were busy concentrating on staring at the empty space, each drinking a drink of their own taste. No one opened their mouths first, so only the sound of drinking tea and the chewing sound of breaking cookies filled the room.

[The Earth Goddess orders her followers to catch him.]

[The goddess of wind frowns.]

[The goddess of the ocean promises a reward to those who find the 31 missing members of her household.]

Everyone could see each other’s indirect messages, so there was no need to exchange complicated words with each other in the first place.

These were the people who wanted to focus on this ‘game’ by saving even the time to talk.

[Mission: Win the Dimensional War]

―Destroy the constellations of another world that have invaded the continent of goddesses.

―In case of success, pay according to achievement, in case of failure, death.

―If you cut off the head of the enemy Constellation, you will be given the right to wish.

Those who were given this mission, given a huge reward called ‘Right of Wish’, began to flock to the enemy’s stronghold without fear.

This realm of wish is the only way to return to ‘home’.

[Some of the goddesses get a little excited by the fresh stimulation.]

These women were even treating this situation as a kind of new game, completely unaware of the dangers of that legion.

In fact, I did just that.

As a result of repeatedly killing all those who refused to follow the contract and filling the existing world with new arrivals through the ‘secret route’, everyone living on this continent was in the hands of these five women.

They ate this world.

The entire population of the earth was under their dominion.

The residents of the kingdom, who have now retired from the front line and become ‘NPC’, also look like the Tang Dynasty army, but if you know them, they are all powerful elites who survived the fierce competition for missions.

They are people who are walking around with hunting guns sold by low-end systems that they rent and use, but their power is very strong.

As such, it never occurred to them that they would be defeated in this war game, as long as the population were all strong fighters.

Their opponent was certain to be a [semi-goddess] like them, but the common idea these women had was that it would not make sense for the author alone to overcome a 5-to-1 battle.

[Unless the Fire Goddess knows if the opponent is a very threatening power like ‘Necromancer’, I am confident that an ordinary constellation alone will never defeat us.]

[The Earth Goddess is confident that there is no way she will be defeated by those who use crude skills such as ‘Psychokinesis’.]

[The other goddesses all nod.]

Due to the lack of information, they didn’t even know that the opponent was building a terrifying factory that would cover the world. Because the ruler of the corps blocked the system screen itself, the location was roughly grasped, but it was impossible to properly check how the environment was changing.

The other person is looking down at the world through a watcher planted high in the sky, but what they know is only ‘the scene where they explode the subordinate’s head without touching it’ and ‘the guy with a very bad mouth’.

Abilities like that aren’t common, but that doesn’t mean you can go head-to-head against tens of millions of subordinates.

The lack of information and confidence, especially overconfidence, prevented the five women from thinking of defeat in the first place.

“Oh really, where the hell did these guys go?”

After several days of snacking on snacks, touching screens and messages, and messing around with games in the corner of the room, a woman finally spoke out to break the silence.

A woman with blue hair reminiscent of the sea was once given the name ‘saint’ and took on the ordeal to save the world, but now she is a waste in the corner of the room and is active under the name of [Goddess of the Ocean]. It was a woman.

[Due to the interference of an unknown entity, the contract behind the clan has been forcibly terminated.]

“Did you really steal my family? That alien Constellation is high enough to steal someone’s family? more than I?”

No matter how many times he turned the screen to watch his followers, he couldn’t see the new subordinates who had just arrived from a new world.

The system called this ‘contract behind the scenes’ had considerable coercive power, and the most basic effect was that it could never be released until the target died. However, the author took away his family even if he did not know what he had done.

“They were really useful.”

So close.

Among the newly ‘supplied’ newcomers this time, they were really overwhelmingly strong.

“I don’t know how many men you brought, or how good you are at fighting.”

All of these women were greedy.

“I have to take it back.”

[The goddess of the sea summons her elite knights.]

The woman got up from her seat without fear.

“Constellation from another world, this body will deal with you directly.”

[The Knights of the Ocean are waiting for the goddess’ command.]

* * *

Not long after starting a guerrilla operation to pass the time, Kang Jin-hyeok shoved a [Holy Sword] into some guys’ heads and ran away with all his might while eating popcorn, when he got a call from Arachne at the headquarters.

―Master, the first incubation is over.

【Send it here.】

Somewhere, a rather strong man was moving, so I ran to buy time by slicing his neck, and I was quite surprised when a person I knew suddenly appeared.

And the familiar, after being remodeled in my hive, was reborn as a ‘terrible hybrid’ with an open hive consciousness, mucosal ingestion, and strong chitinous skin all over the body.

I put the legion queen’s genes into their bodies and completely changed the ‘species’ themselves.

To be honest, I never thought of saving people in this world, but since I know these people, I had no choice but to save them. So I looked at the contents of the contract to find a way, and it was stated that the target was ‘human’, so I just changed the species itself.

As expected, the person who reads the terms and conditions must read them well, but the person who uses them also needs to use their brains well.

After hearing the story, the contract that those couples made was a very beggarly contract where they could kill their subordinates at will, so there was only one way to get them out of the couple’s rule.

Of course they all agreed to follow me.

So it is a new corps object created, an infected human.

“Meet the Son of Heaven.”

“… … .”

Jang Tae-sik, the leader, now has the skin of a spider, can pull out spider webs from his buttocks, and even lays eggs and has undergone body modification to control a small group with a colony consciousness, riding on a jellyfish.

… … Clinging to the tentacles with spider webs spun by the buttocks.

It seems that the application ability is better than that nobleman, but the visual was not so good.

“Sir, this work is too painful. I’m fine, but I’m very worried that my subordinates won’t be able to hold on.”

They were immersed in the culture medium and were ‘alive’ subjected to the task of changing the genes of the whole body. There is no way that the experience of being grounded one by one to form a cell is never pleasant.

But there is no good way to alleviate the pain. No anesthetic hormone was of much use in the face of the pain.

“… … Just be patient.”

Then what should I endure?

“… … I follow the will of the Son of Heaven.”

Anyway, I plan to have this man and his subordinates participate in the initial work.

Thanks to the enemy’s advance being slower than expected, we didn’t have to suffer much. Also, the army made up of people needs supplies and rest, so unlike the corps, the progress is bound to be slow.

Now that the preparations for the colony were well over half way over, it was time for the stock to explode as soon as the uncle’s subordinates and Mr. Kang rolled with a little more power.

“Mr. Gyojang, first of all, slit the heads of the opposing captains. You know roughly what kind of guys are strong, right?”

“That’s right. I am well aware of it.”

“Ah, Gangho people and Earth people will send spiders, so don’t kill them, just subdue them and tie them up before sending them to the colony.”

“All right.”

I roughly figured out the target through the jellyfish and passed the data to him.

“Start the operation.”

“Johnny.”

After he finished answering, the new model of the teacher faded and disappeared in front of my eyes in an instant.

When I looked at the leader’s movements with the Hive consciousness, I felt that they were flying several kilometers in an instant.

“… … Wow.”

Awesome?

If possible, I would like to learn such skills.

“… … .”

Of course, the probability that people from other worlds who have different constitutions from the beginning can learn such a skill as Tonabbeop (吐納法) is not very high. No matter how hard I tried to find a way, I’m not sure if it was like that from the beginning, but people born on Earth weren’t able to feel and control the ‘ki’ well in the first place.

If it wasn’t for the Hive Mind’s ESP ability, I wouldn’t have felt the aura of strong people at all.

Come to think of it, if a person from Earth could freely learn such a skill, the Administrators would probably have spread that method instead of empowering in the first place.

It’s more convenient and efficient to tell them to train themselves and become stronger rather than bothering to lend them their divine power and imprint their powers on them.

Perhaps only a few people with a blessed constitution can learn that, but Kang Jin-hyeok was the type who received power very well in the first place, not a blessed body. So, this body cloned with his genes is also of low quality.

However, I had an excellent substitute for martial arts, so although I was greedy, there was no reason to blindly cling to martial arts.

“If it doesn’t work, we’ll fix it with psionics.”

Everyone is weak, but there is a possibility of psionic energy. The ability called ‘intuition’ itself is the realm of utilizing mental power that transcends the five senses, and everyone is born with intuition.

Of course, there are far fewer people like me who were born with the mental strength to withstand overload and can use their abilities properly than those who have the constitution to learn martial arts.

Maybe 1-3 people will come out in a century?

―Legion troops will arrive soon to help the ruler.

Now that I’m thinking about this, let’s start hunting in earnest.

* * *

“You evil invader!”

An elderly, bearded knight in full body armor pointed a halberd at me and shouted enthusiastically.

I was directly meeting the fighting groups that had come close to the colony.

“I will take your head!!!”

That old man seems to be the head of the ‘full body armor party’ here. He was feeling a lot of energy, and even the halberd he held in his hand was shaking so much that he could see it with the naked eye.

Even if not as good as the strong people, these people also use similar abilities.

… … Do you know how to handle dogs and cows here?

“… … hey uncle It seems the bitches from that Constellation are more evil than me, right?”

“Yes, yes man! How dare you blaspheme!!!”

The old knight, enraged by my words, jumped right in. Alright, fishing success.

“Catch that bastard.”

In fact, I didn’t even have to use my strength.

Pew-!

When I raised my finger and pointed at the knight running from afar with swordsmanship, dozens of spiders came out from the ground all at once and bit the enemies.

“Let go, let go!!!”

The spiders dragged the aged knight they had captured back into the ground they had dug, and after a while, they felt a life disappearing underground.

“As expected, twilight is perfect for people fishing.”

Unless the opponent has at least the level of a count-level demon, if you are dragged into the ground like that and beaten by dozens of spiders, you will never be able to come back to life.

As I walked again, I could feel the spiders following me as they hurriedly expanded their burrows after they had finished their work underground.

It’s always fun to look at the battlefield from behind and give orders, but it seems like there’s a different kind of fun in solving things directly like this.

… … Wait a minute, something is weird.

“… … Holy crap, how did I end up like this?”

A self-defeated muttering came out.

To be honest, I’ve never done murder since I came to this planet.

In the first place, when I was active as a player, if I had an accident like that, the bad-tempered manager would punish me with an extremely painful punishment, ‘exclude the returning player’s family from the protection list and banish them from the manager’s territory.’ I had no choice but to be patient.

However, I did not commit murder when I was a normal person, nor did I ever cause injuries in a car accident.

Obviously, a normal person would have to suffer a psychological shock. But now I really don’t mind throwing people as food for spiders.

As he became a ruler, his head grew enormously, and in the first place, his mentality far exceeded the category that humans could imagine.

Now, I only felt that those who followed the [Constellation] and attacked me were simply ‘the food of the legion’. It’s because compassion for other races is a very inefficient emotion that the ruler’s genes wriggling inside do not tolerate.

“It feels like I’m gradually losing my human identity.”

Knowing or unknowingly changing my disposition is a serious anxiety factor.

“… … Let’s do this and go back.”

It was around the time that I was about to quit hunting and return to the colony because I was distraught.

[Stop there.]

When I turned my back in the direction from which the sound came, hundreds of knights in blue armor and a woman in a dress appeared in front of me.

From that strange woman came the scent of a ruler that gave off a feeling similar to mine.

[This savage guy who doesn’t even know the game manners of the continent. Do you dare to steal my men? Where the hell did you learn such a bad habit?]

“… … .”

When I heard this, I laughed because it was so ridiculous. Isn’t this the story of the bitch who stole people from the world I ruled and the world I came from?

I stared at her with my head tilted, then struck her head with my will, very clearly.

【What, you bitch who ate this face.】

[…] … !!!]

I don’t feel good, but it’s okay.

First of all, I won one hand.
