Side Story Chapter 149 - Tower of Creation (7)
[The ‘God of Rupture’ is enraged by your arrogance!]
Oh Kang-Woo chuckled as he stared at the message window before him.
‘They don’t wanna be reduced to pushovers, is that it?’
It was only natural; they were practically the rulers of the Tower of Creation. They were supreme transcendental beings like stars in the night sky. Kang-Woo’s actions could only be taken as complaints from an arrogant flea.
‘So what?’
The Constellations couldn’t directly influence the physical realm due to the restrictions of the Law; they could only do so indirectly using the currency known as Nebula. It would have been a different story if Kang-Woo were their apostle but since he wasn’t, they couldn’t exert their will on him.
“Well, I sincerely apologize if you are upset.” Kang-Woo tilted his head haughtily. “But I’m doing this to make a living, you know? O fair and just Constellations~ Please understand the actions of this lowly mortal!”
Kang-Woo sounded like he was begging for mercy but his attitude couldn’t be more shameless.
[The ‘God of Rupture’ is highly disappointed in you!]
‘Wow, how heartbreaking. I don’t give a fuck, you broke-ass.’
The Constellation’s name was rather grandiose but he was sponsoring much less than the others, indicating how low-rank he was. Kang-Woo couldn't care less about the disappointment of a Constellation who wasn’t a big shot.
Shatter—!!
“Hm?”
Just then, a Rift appeared in midair along with the sound of glass breaking.
[The ‘God of Rupture’ punishes you!]
[Restrictions will be placed on the Constellation who defied the Law!]
A three-meter giant right arm appeared from the Rift.
[Pay the price of ridiculing a Constellation with your life!]
The muscular and veiny right arm clenched its fist.
Crack! Crack!!
Red fissures were forming on the giant right arm; it seemed the restriction of the Law was being applied already.
“Oh?” Kang-Woo’s eyes widened with great interest.
‘I guess they can meddle with the physical realm somewhat.’
It was highly limited but it seemed the Constellations had ways to exert physical force on the physical realm.
‘Completely different from how Earth used to be.’
Whoosh!
[Repent in death!!]
The giant red arm was swung toward Kang-Woo at supersonic speed. The God of Rupture’s fist contained immense power as expected from a Constellation.
“Hmm.”
Kang-Woo crossed his arms leisurely as he watched the fist being swung down toward the crown of his head. He didn’t even need to dodge it.
[The ‘God of Heaven’ uses his starscape!]
[Restrictions will be placed on the Constellation who defied the Law!]
‘After all, my dependable sirs will block it for me.’
Swoosh—!!
A Rift opened in midair and white cumulus clouds poured out of it like a tidal wave, wrapping around the fist. The cracking right arm shattered.
‘Wow.’
Kang-Woo expected nothing less from one of the three most powerful Constellations.
[GAAAAAAAAHHH!!]
The two Rifts in the air disappeared along with the faint echoing of screams.
“Thank you very much, great God of Heaven.”
[The ‘God of Heaven’ shrugs!]
Kang-Woo placed one hand on his chest and bowed. He did not expect the God of Heaven to take action but was sure at least one of them would.
‘They wouldn’t want to lose me.’
Not even a week had passed and he had already risen to the thirty-fifth floor without borrowing power from the Constellations.
‘I’m sure the Constellations have realized it.’
They would need to stick to Kang-Wo if they wanted to reach the top of the tower. They had realized the priceless value of the human Oh Kang-Woo.
‘The same goes for the Constellations who have no intention of making me their apostle.’
It was the same as why people watched sports that they didn’t even play. Even if Kang-Woo wasn’t their apostle, they showed great interest in someone climbing the tower at the speed at which Kang-Woo was.
‘To describe my situation using an example of the game Yeon-Joo plays... it’s like someone who just started the game cruising through each tier because they’re a natural.’
The apostles around Kang-Woo shot death glares at each other.
‘Looks like the Constellations grilled them about me.’
Kang-Woo smirked as he watched the apostles who might even be willing to lick his toes.
“Whoa, calm down, everyone.” Kang-Woo arbitrated between the apostles about to attack each other. “I’m honestly... rather moved by your passionate welcoming.”
“This is nothing at all, Sir Kang-Woo!”
“Hahaha, I’m just a newbie who hasn’t even been in the tower for a week, so I’m not sure if I’m worthy of such extravagance.”
“Ah...”
The apostles’ expressions froze for a moment. However, they quickly smiled, albeit awkwardly, and shook their heads.
“Y-You are more than worthy!”
“From what we’ve heard from the Constellations, you’ve possessed great power even before you entered the tower!”
Kang-Woo caught their momentary expression change.
‘I knew it.’
Of course, they would be against treating a newbie who hadn’t even spent a week in the tower, like a king. They were smiling on the outside but they were probably blazing with jealousy on the inside.
‘In that case.’ Kang-Woo’s eyes shone and he smiled nastily. ‘I can use this.’
He cackled in a way that no one could hear.
“Right, then how about this? Since I’m only one person and can’t ignore all of your goodwill, why don’t we all gather in one place to get to know each other?”
“That’s...”
“Hmm.”
The apostles exchanged glances with each other. They did not have to think for long.
“Sounds good to us.”
“Hahaha, thank you very much.”
With that, he decided to spend time with the chief apostles of each Constellation. The apostles left for several hours to prepare, seemingly to discuss the best place to take Kang-Woo.
The apostles returned after a little over two hours and remarked, “This way, please.”
“Wow.”
The apostles took him to a massive temple with a Big Dipper symbol. Inside the temple was a long table one would only see in the homes of royalty and was filled with luxurious food.
“Sit wherever you like,” an apostle remarked.
“Hahaha, thank you.”
Kang-Woo naturally headed to the host seat at the end of the table. He sat down and raised one leg over the other. He examined the apostles’ faces and smiled.
‘Now, then. Time to begin.’
“Mmm...”
“Are you looking for something?” an apostle asked.
“There’s no...”
“Pardon?”
Kang-Woo’s expression crumpled in an instant.
“There’s no kimchi stew.”
“What...?”
“I thought you were gonna show me hospitality, was I wrong? Didn’t you say you prepared various amenities?”
“Umm, well...”
“Shouldn’t kimchi stew have been the first fucking thing you prepared? Huh?”
“...”
“Is there something wrong with your brains?”
“Uhh...”
“I’M ASKING YOU A FUCKING QUESTION!!!”
Clatter!!!
Kang-Woo flipped the table and the luxurious food fell to the ground.
“Bring me kimchi stew.”
“Wh-Why are you being like this all of a—”
“RIGHT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!” Kang-Woo’s eyes rolled back and he foamed at the mouth. “BRING ME KIMCHI STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWW!!!”
Karen mode: On.
