Player Who Became A Constellation [EN]: Chapter 109

Loki glanced at Aum beside him.

“Ordinary soldiers can’t stop him. Where are Kudan and Cancun?”

“They entered the Hubel territory to save Hans and his group.”

“What about the Berserker Warriors…?”

“They went with them as well.”

“If you were to fight him?”

Aum was startled by Loki’s words and waved his hand with an awkward expression.

“Are you kidding? By Nord standards, I’m just a little stronger than an average person. How could I possibly face such a monster?”

“Ugh… annoying.”

Loki groaned. In the end, he was the only one who could stop that guy.

“If I had known this would happen, I would have kept Cancun by my side.”

“Even Cancun might have a hard time.”

“Is he that strong?”

“Well, he is one of the 12 heroes who killed the Demon King Kalib. I believe he’s ranked 4th.”

Loki held the reins and steered Sleipnir [Odin’s eight-legged horse] towards Kashar.

The Asgard soldiers surrounding Kashar were startled and moved out of the way.

They parted to the sides, kneeling one by one.

Kashar’s eye muscles twitched.

Unlike the slave soldiers who abandoned him and ran away, they did not hide their reverence for their ruler.

It was the opposite of mocking him.

Kashar, his pride wounded, glared at Loki.

The figure wearing a metal helmet with ram horns, jet-black armor, a reddish-brown cloak with fur, and riding a monstrous horse that seemed straight out of mythology was quite intimidating.

He was even exuding a presence that surpassed Kashar himself.

“…Are you the master of those who humiliated me?”

Kashar knew very well that the demon in front of him was the one who had neutralized his soldiers and himself.

The demon who controls the Black Disaster.

‘That guy is the commander. If I kill only him….’

There is a chance of winning.

This war will not end in defeat.

Loki got off Sleipnir and tilted his head, looking at Kashar.

“You are the Emperor of the Kron Empire, Ka….”

As he spoke, Loki paused for a moment, thinking about something, and looked at the Nord soldiers around him.

The Nord soldiers, who were kneeling, were puzzled by their master’s strange reaction.

“Ka…?”

“…….”

“So, Ka…?”

“Ka…?”

Even the Nord soldiers tilted their heads.

Loki frowned at the soldiers’ reaction and looked at Kashar.

“…What was his name again?”

At that moment, a vein popped out on Kashar’s temple, and at the same time, his hand stretched out like a whip, covering Loki.

He intended to blow his head off completely.

Loki tilted his head slightly to avoid it and said as if mocking him.

“Just kidding. Was it Kashar?”

“You…! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you-!”

Kashar stretched out both hands.

The long, heavy hands fluttered in the air, then rushed towards Loki with tremendous force.

Kashar’s attack speed gradually increased, and his two arms struck the ground violently as if wielding dozens of whips at the same time.

Dust swirled and the wind pressure hit the skin strongly.

Kashar aimed at his target in the dust and swung his arms.

Bang-!

Explosions followed dozens of times.

But-.

‘Why…!’

Kashar’s eyes wavered and shook.

“Why… Why doesn’t it hit!”

Until now, hundreds, thousands of humans have been hit by this attack and died.

Once hit, the whole body is torn to pieces, and even a graze leaves the skin deeply cut.

Whether it’s a hundred or a thousand, this attack can kill them all in just a few hours.

Yet, he simply avoids such an attack, even wearing that heavy armor and holding a large golden spear.

No, it’s not just avoiding it….

‘……!’

Kashar stopped attacking and retracted his arms.

He breathed heavily and stared closely at the cloak Loki was wearing.

There are no traces at all.

It means that even the reddish-brown cloak worn by the demon in front of him was not touched.

Kashar’s eyes were filled with astonishment, and he trembled.

The way his whole body and cheeks were shaking showed how agitated he was.

‘This guy… is strong. Can I win?’

The strongest human known on the continent, one of the 12 heroes, and the 4th strongest among them.

He couldn’t believe that his attack, which ranked 4th among humans, was not working at all.

‘Where did such a monster come from?!’

Kashar swallowed hard.

At this rate, he will be defeated by the enemy in front of him.

That would be a truly unbearable humiliation.

‘What should I do with him…!’

As Kashar groaned, Loki was looking around.

He saw the Nord soldiers who had been killed by Kashar.

“You rampaged spectacularly. Thanks to you, many followers have died.”

Kashar sweated at the cold voice he heard.

“Ha, what does it matter how many bugs die? If you are a noble like me, you wouldn’t care how many of those bugs die, would you?”

Loki said as if he didn’t understand Kashar’s words.

“Bugs? I don’t know what you mean.”

“Huh? You don’t understand? You don’t know the meaning of bugs at all!”

Kashar smiled bitterly.

Loki’s eyes narrowed and he tilted his head.

“Ah! That’s right. Perhaps….”

And one finger like a hook pointed at Kashar.

“Are you talking about yourself?”

“…….”

“That’s right, a bug. A fat bug. Truly….”

Loki spat out a mocking voice.

“A pathetic bug.”

Kashar felt something snap.

By the time he realized it was his reason, his whole body was already swelling up.

The muscles all over his body expand.

The bones lengthen, the blood vessels lengthen, and the muscles and skin lengthen.

Everything expands, becoming even bigger.

Its size alone is 14m.

A giant size that far exceeds even the ogre, a large monster among monsters, by 3 times.

This time, even the Nord soldiers who had been surrounding him were startled and stepped back.

It was because they never expected such a monster to appear.

“Uwaaaaah-! You-! How dare you call me a bug-!”

A huge voice echoed.

Every time the heavy body moved, the surrounding air swirled.

Every time he exhaled, a strong wind blew, and every time he stepped, the ground vibrated.

Loki looked up at Kashar and exclaimed.

However, there was a slight displeasure in his voice.

“…Hmm. A big bug is looking down on me. It’s not a good feeling.”

“Uwaaaaah!”

With that voice, Kashar lost even the last of his reason.

He gathers both arms and slams them down from the air.

The wind pressure strongly struck the ground as if a huge meteorite was falling.

“Die-!”

“…Pierce it. Gungnir [Odin’s spear].”

At that moment, the golden spear flew and pierced and burst Kashar’s huge arm.

In the place where Gungnir cut through the space, blood, flesh, and bone fragments burst out, and soon a huge arm fluttered in the air.

The severed arm gradually shrank and fell from the sky as the power of the artifact disappeared.

“…Uwaaaaaaaah-!”

The scream of pain echoed loudly across the earth.

The Nord soldiers covered their ears at the eardrum-shattering sound and frowned in pain.

Loki rushed at Kashar.

“…….”

Jormungandr [Midgard Serpent] and Fenrir [giant wolf], who had emerged from his armor, merged into one, forming a hand shape, grabbed Kashar’s huge head, and slammed it into the ground.

The ground rumbled, and the Nord soldiers who were nearby scrambled to escape.

“Uwaaak!”

“Aren’t you being too harsh! You’re not even thinking about us!”

“Run away on your own…! Or you’ll get crushed to death!”

Kashar was crushed in the place where the Nord soldiers had hastily run away.

His mouth was blocked, and he groaned in pain.

“Ugh…!”

“…The head is too big. Can’t you make it smaller? No, it got smaller when the arm was cut off earlier…, so if I cut off the head, it will get smaller.”

Loki, who was riding on his head, released the shadows.

Kashar, whose mouth was freed, coughed and shouted in a trembling voice.

“I, I surrender! I lost! So please stop! I’ll give you anything you want! If you want slaves, I’ll give you slaves! If you want a country, I’ll give you a country! I am the Emperor of the Kron Empire! I can give you anything you want!”

“…Do the humans in this world like to sell humans and countries? Well, you said you’d give me anything? Good. Then….”

Loki lowered his head and met Kashar’s big eyes.

The red light in his eyes narrowed and he spat out a mocking voice.

“…I want your head.”

“……!”

“It’s a suitable gift for that scoundrel prince, no, scoundrel king, Ash.”

“Wa, wait…!”

Shadows poured out from Loki’s body again.

Fenrir and Jormungandr licked their tongues and looked down at their prey.

“…Say hello to King Ash.”

As soon as those words were finished, the shadow beast bit off Kashar’s neck.

***

Remnants of the slave soldiers still remained in the Hubel Territory’s fortress.

They didn’t know the situation outside.

The slave soldiers showed vigilance towards the white army entering the Hubel Territory and rushed at them.

“Kkyaaaaak-!”

Sticky saliva dripped from their open mouths.

The slave soldiers with their eyes turned over tried to resist the white army by rushing at them with daggers, but they were trampled by the hooves of the horses they were riding or stabbed by the blades of spears and died.

The white army headed towards the fortress of the Hubel Territory.

“…….”

Kashar’s bodyguards raised their swords all at once and rushed at them.

But those who opposed them were not ordinary Nord soldiers, but the Berserker Warriors wearing beast masks.

They drew their respective weapons and slaughtered the bodyguards.

In front of 100 artifact users, Kashar’s bodyguards were powerless.

“…Are we late?”

Kudan frowned as he looked at the fortress.

The slave soldiers have already infiltrated deep into the fortress.

Nord soldiers and revolutionaries were still fighting with the slave soldiers on the walls, but their numbers seemed small.

Many sacrifices have already been made.

“Quickly rescue the survivors! Treat the injured! Permission to use potions for the seriously injured!”

The slave soldiers were quickly suppressed.

The revolutionaries felt hope when they saw the Asgard soldiers and shouted.

They had barely survived this hellish war.

“Reinforcements!”

“They came to save us!”

“Hold on! Hold on a little longer!”

Hans sighed in relief.

Even though it was a close call, he was safely rescued.

‘They arrived earlier than I thought. Could it be that they were being reckless?’

Thanks to that, I was able to survive, but maybe the Asgard soldiers are also very tired….

“Kill them all if they don’t surrender!”

“Haha! But it’s better for us if they don’t surrender and resist!”

“Come on! Come on! You bunnies!”

…But they look energetic.

In Hans’ eyes, they looked like hunters chasing rabbits.

“Still, it’s a relief. I thought I was going to die like this….”

At that time, Hans groaned at the pain he felt behind his back, around his waist.

A slave soldier stabbed him in the back.

The sword that pierced his waist pierced through the organs in his stomach, causing him to bleed.

“Hans, it’s dangerous-!”

At that moment, someone stood in front of him.

Prince Eron.

He swung his sword and deflected the slave soldier’s sword, but the slave soldier flashed his eyes and retrieved the deflected sword and stabbed it at Eron.

Thud-!
