〈 Chapter 1081 〉 1081. Spirit’s Atlantis
The citizens of Atlantis gazed upward at Heaven. They could sense an enormous presence descending from above.
A transformation in the heavens had begun.
Even in broad daylight, starlight twinkled with audacious brilliance. Of course, there were regions where it was nighttime – and in those night skies, a new star appeared, shining far brighter than the others.
Most of Atlantis’ inhabitants accepted this anomaly without much concern.
“A new constellation is being born.”
“It seems someone has achieved deeds worthy of legend. I wonder what they did…”
“It’s been a few months since Barclay’s Falray. Another new constellation already?”
“Whose stars are these?”
Everyone paused their work to look skyward. The birth of a new constellation was a rare and wondrous Scene indeed.
Twinkle twinkle…
The new stars shone brightly. It was still unclear exactly what shape they formed.
“There’s a star that shines especially bright, like Polaris.”
“How do we find out who owns this constellation? Do the gossipy bards know anything?”
“Butterfly Constellation! Judging by the positions of these stars, it must be Butterfly!”
“To the hero of the new constellation!”
The people of Atlantis murmured among themselves, speculating wildly. Some raised cups in celebration of the new celestial arrival.
The stars grew clearer, and silver lines began forming from the brightest points. Everyone watched with anticipation as the new constellation took shape.
“…”
“…”
“…”
All fell silent.
Those who saw the constellation’s form doubted their own eyes, mouths agping open.
“Mom, what kind of constellation is that?”
“Looks like some kind of animal…”
“More like a Monster…”
Children pestered their parents about the identity of the strange constellation. Bewildered parents had no answers for their curious kids.
The adults were equally baffled.
“You tell me.”
“…Even if I look, I don’t recognize it. Is this… Vagina Constellation?”
“What kind of crazy person came up with something like this?”
“So now every time I look at the night sky, I’ll be seeing vaginas…”
“The owner of this constellation must be our gender’s sworn enemy. We need to hunt them down and kill them.”
“Is there anyone who can tell us about the abilities associated with this constellation? The important thing isn’t its appearance but its power. I really want to know what it does.”
“I have the ability to sense some effects of constellations. Hmm… Despite how lewd the constellation’s form appears… this is actually quite impressive power.”
“Gentleman bard, just what kind of power is it? I’ll pay you to spill the details.”
“When engaging in relations with women, one temporarily gains buffs.”
“…That’s not a bad power.”
“Crazy bastards! How is that not a bad power?!”
The men chuckled nervously while the women expressed their annoyance. Similar scenes played out across various parts of Atlantis.
•••
The members of Eoplan Legion also looked skyward. The Vagina Constellation shone brilliantly, vulgar even. But Kang Myung-Jin crossed his arms and observed seriously. His royal insight read the constellation’s effects clearly.
Kang Myung-Jin was impressed. The lewd form of the constellation didn’t matter to him.
“An advantage in combat when dealing with women. It may seem trivial, but considering half the World’s population is female… this is no small effect. And likely not limited to humans alone…”
“It should work on monsters too.”
Gang Myeong-jin felt the owner of the constellation was truly remarkable. The female gender organ—while vulgar, it was intuitive enough for anyone to understand. They must have chosen the constellation predicting its effect.
As he marveled at the power of the constellation, someone winced. It was Joo Seo-hyun.
“Only that guy would pull a stunt like this.”
“I agree with Ms. Seo-hyun.”
Yu Seo-hee nodded in agreement.
The elf Lilsne tilted her head in confusion.
“You seem to think Mr. Yoojin is the owner of the constellation. While Mr. Yoojin does have his quirks, I don’t think he’d do something this crazy. Besides, he doesn’t have the power to create a constellation.”
It was a sensible opinion. Sung Yoo-jin hasn’t been around long enough to achieve such a feat.
“You still don’t know that guy well, huh.”
“Mr. Yoojin could do it.”
Joo Seo-hyun and Yu Seo-hee said together. Lilsne felt an inexplicable sense of defeat and closed her mouth.
“The owner of that constellation is definitely him. Want to bet? When he comes back tomorrow or the day after, it’ll be almost 100% certain.”
Joo Seo-hyun said confidently.
Normally, Lilsne would’ve jumped at the chance for a bet—it was an opportunity to make money. But now, all she felt was the anxiety of possibly losing.
“…It’s not worth betting on.”
—
I looked up at the sky and smiled contentedly. The Pussy Constellation. Creating it felt rewarding. Now, I can see it in the night sky 2-3 times a month.
“Constellations grow. Either when I accumulate more achievements or whenever I do something related to the Pussy Constellation.”
The former makes constellations grow faster. The latter is too slow and unpredictable.
The more it grows, the stronger the constellation’s effects become, and it appears in the night sky more frequently. My goal is to see the Pussy Constellation every night.
I sensed movement beside me. Elena, who had been hiding, appeared. She looked up at the sky next to me with an expression of disbelief.
“I’m currently regretting giving up my contribution points fiercely. If I hadn’t given them up, a constellation like that probably wouldn’t have been created… I apologize to everyone living in Atlantis.”
Elena reached out to me. I thought she might give me a celebratory kiss, but instead, she pinched my cheek hard. It stung.
“Aaaah!”
“Couldn’t you have chosen a normal constellation?”
“Most normal constellations already exist.”
“Hmph. Even so, isn’t this a bit excessive? Don’t go around telling people you’re the owner of that constellation. It embarrasses even me looking at it.”
“Well, I wasn’t planning to advertise it anyway. There’s no real benefit to it. Oh, good timing! Want to receive the blessing of the Pussy Constellation?”
“…What kind of blessing?”
Elena’s gaze sharpened.
Before she got any angrier, I quickly explained the effects of the constellation. After hearing my explanation, Elena crossed her arms and nodded.
“…Surprisingly, the constellation’s effects aren’t bad. Honestly, they exceed expectations.”
“Constellations are better when they’re famous. They’re symbols, after all. And the Pussy is pretty famous in that sense.”
“…Annoying as it is, you’re right. Um… what exactly does the blessing of the Pussy Constellation do?”
“I’m not entirely sure. But it won’t be bad—it’s a blessing, after all. Maybe your… um, grip will improve?”
“Ugh, even though it feels off… since it is a blessing, I’ll try receiving it.”
I placed my hand on Elena’s head. Her eyes slightly narrowed upward. She moved her lips but stopped. I bestowed the blessing of the Pussy Constellation upon her.
“You have bestowed the blessing of the Pussy Constellation.”
“The target is female. Conditions met.”
“For the next 30 days, you cannot use the blessing of the Pussy Constellation.”
A notification window popped up.
It didn’t specify the exact effect of the blessing, meaning it has randomness.
I looked at Elena. Was it just my imagination, or did her skin glow faintly? Elena caught my gaze and smirked.
“That’s good.
“The blessing of a name so foul I can’t even bring myself to say it—but its effects are quite remarkable.”
“What kind of effect?”
“Permanent +1 increase in stamina, and my charm has risen. They say I can easily seduce men now… Does it work?”
She stared at me blankly. Though I feel sorry for her, I can’t really sense any difference.
“Let’s confirm it once.”
I reached out toward Elena. She took a step back, shaking her head.
“No time for that. I’ve got a backlog of work waiting. Thinking about the pile makes me sick. Wasn’t there someone named Li Mei? The future leader of the Black Bamboo Gang needs special training from me.”
Before I could even grab her, Elena vanished. I sighed, regretting not properly thanking her.
For now, I checked what I had gained.
Control over Sector 5,845 and the Three Walls is now mine. Every 30 days, I’ll receive a steady income of 15,000 AP.
Combined with other territories, I earn nearly 2.3 million AP per month.
「Current AP: 2,771,752」
The amount of AP made me feel secure just looking at it. But more than half is already earmarked for use.
‘I need to buy teleportation scrolls.’
I’ve been using teleportation scrolls consistently in other worlds too.
‘Wasn’t the market price around 60,000 AP last time?’
The price of teleportation scrolls keeps rising as more people buy them for emergencies, thanks to the increasing level of danger in Atlantis over time.
‘At 60,000 AP each, I can barely afford fifty.’
Even though I earn over 2 million AP monthly, most of it goes into buying these scrolls.
‘I should save some AP for later. But I can’t stop buying teleportation scrolls either…’
Once you experience the convenience of teleportation scrolls, living without them becomes unimaginable. With no real solution, I shook my head helplessly.
‘The Black Bamboo Gang is finished. Wang Xuan and Cheng Guaoli are dead, so Li Mei will take control easily. The gang will weaken by about half, but this might be for the best—it’ll be easier to manage.’
With Elena’s training, Li Mei will surely run the Black Bamboo Gang without issue.
‘Now it’s really time to go back.’
I hesitated before tearing up the teleportation scroll, deciding to conserve it for now…
‘Since I’m here anyway, let’s have some fun in the nearby village before leaving.’
•••
Two days later, I returned to Aiplan Legion. It felt like forever since I’d been back, and the Legion building seemed unfamiliar.
The first to greet me was Kang Myungjin. Seeing me, he curled his lips upward.
“I believed you’d return.”
“Hell itself couldn’t stop me.”
“I heard something came up along the way. Looks like you handled it well.”
“It wasn’t serious.”
I felt a gaze at his feet. There was a girl with blue hair tightly clinging to one of Kang Myungjin’s legs. Qinglong descendant, Biya. Her azure eyes shot daggers at me. She still doesn’t seem to like me much.
‘She’s grown a lot since I last saw her. Well, dragon growth standards differ from humans anyway.’
Tatatatatat!
Someone ran up and hugged me tightly. It was Yoo Seohui.
“Mr. Yoo Jin! I believed you’d come back!”
Her grip was strong, and feeling her touch after so long excited me slightly. Her allure seems stronger than before.
“Seohui looks even prettier.”
Behind Yoo Seohui, more women appeared. Lee Minjeong, with her short hair, teared up while looking at me, and Lilsne waved happily.
Joo Seohyun stood with her arms crossed, glaring at me hostilely. I glanced down at her lower body—she was wearing baggy pants, so I couldn’t tell if she was wearing the chastity device or not.
‘Did she remove it while I was gone?’
I reached into my pocket and pressed the remote. An immediate reaction came—her waist bent slightly. Joo Seohyun glared at me murderously.
‘Still wearing it, good.’
The feeling of being back at the Legion finally hit me.
