The Constellations Are My Disciples Chapter 236

◈ Episode 236 Who are you? (1)

Kim Joo-hyuk, who had heard the guide’s entire story, was silent for a while before speaking.

“So that means I am one of those ten incarnations.”

“yes.”

“Same to you?”

“that’s right.”

“Then is that voice that whispered to me also you?”

Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.

However, contrary to expectations that he would nod, the guide shook his head.

“No, that voice is not me.”

“It’s not you?”

“huh. “I said it last time, but I heard that voice too.”

“Then…”

the guide said as Kim Joo-hyuk trailed off.

“Probably, there is someone other than me who has a connection with you from before.”

“It’s someone I have a connection with….”

“I’ll tell you, I don’t know who that voice is. “I was surprised when I first heard that voice.”

The guide said that, and Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been silent for a while as if he was trying to gather his thoughts, nodded and spoke.

“Well, first of all, let’s leave the voice issue aside and if the story unfolds like this, I’ll understand a bit. “Why are those guys trying to kill me?”

The guide nodded at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.

“The other guys who are currently sealed are probably all targeting you. “Because they at least know that you’re alive.”

“So, now that the seal on the Avatars is released in earnest, I will become the top priority?”

“no.”

“…No?”

“Not when the seal is lifted, but starting now. More precisely, from the moment you become the Labyrinth Lord, other incarnations will start targeting you.”

“I heard the other incarnations are sealed?”

“The incarnations are sealed, but the races and groups they created were not properly sealed.”

“…ah.”

Kim Joo-hyuk suddenly remembered the mandala that Zhong Li-kwon had mentioned and sighed without realizing it. The guide looked at him and responded.

“Well, even so, there is no need to worry. At the moment, among the races and groups of Avatars, only a small number can roam outside. “Thanks to that, I am also hiding like this.”

Kim Joo-hyuk said as the guide talked about the old shack.

“Are those guys strong?”

“He was originally strong. However, since their incarnations are sealed, they cannot use all their power, so dealing with them will not be that difficult.”

Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head at the guide’s words.

“But why are you hiding?”

“I gave up my name and used all my strength to seal those guys away? “I don’t have any fighting ability right now.”

“Ah…”

“Anyway, from now on you have to increase your strength. No, to be more precise, you need to get your name back. In addition, it would be better to increase your number of colleagues.”

“How long will it take for the seals on the Avatars to be released?”

The guide thought about Kim Joo-hyuk’s question before answering.

“I don’t know, but I didn’t control it in the first place, but I blocked all the power with the mindset that things would happen the way they should. “But one thing is certain: the seal has weakened considerably, and it won’t be long before it is released.”

“Tsk.”

At the guide’s words, Kim Joo-hyuk unconsciously tasted the food and nodded as if he understood.

“It’s a bit unfortunate that I don’t know.”

“I will let you know when the seal weakens, so don’t worry. Since I am the one who put the seal on you, I can feel it.”

“That’s at least good.”

Kim Joo-hyuk nodded and immediately looked at the guide.

“And you?”

“me?”

“So, the reason you’re running around the shack right now is to run away to protect yourself, right? “Isn’t it right for you to join me in a place where you can run away like this?”

The guide nodded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.

“It’s definitely more convenient that way. However, it is impossible to join right now.”

“why?”

“First of all, it’s not like I can go there like I’m calling you. This ability that remains as a guide now is not a very convenient ability. Besides, this place right now is not a space where one of the four disciples can ‘come beyond space’, which is an ability.”

“…That’s a bit unfortunate.”

When Kim Joo-hyuk said that, the guide waved his hand as if telling him not to worry.

“Don’t worry. “It may take some time, but there is a way for me to get there safely.”

“okay?”

“Next time, let’s not look at it in terms of ability, but let’s look at it in person.”

The guide smiled slightly as he said that.

The scenery of the waterfall looks truly spectacular.

Above him, Zhong Liquan, who had taken Barce to Seogeumtai Mountain a while ago, was sitting on the waterfall with a relaxed expression, looking at the scenery.

Zhong Liquan remained silent for a while, gazing at the magnificent view.

“Why don’t you just stop pretending to sleep now?”

He soon opened his mouth.

Zhong Liquan opens his mouth in an ordinary voice without any magical power in an empty place.

However, Zhong Liquan left those words and just admired the scenery with a relaxed expression. How long had it been since he had been silent like that?

[What’s going on?]

A voice was heard in the waterfall where no one was present except Zhong Liquan.

It wasn’t a normal voice either, but a deep voice that made the entire area around the waterfall resonate.

Zhong Liquan smiled and spoke.

“I have a little question to ask.”

[How did you know where I was?]

“100 years ago, a large mountain with a spectacular waterfall suddenly appeared here. Who wouldn’t know?”

Zhong Liquan’s words.

On that.

Cough keug keung-!

Suddenly, the ground where Zhong Liquan was sitting began to tremble.

The beautiful waterfall pouring out water begins to tremble irregularly, and all natural ecosystems nearby tremble in a dangerous manner.

And from inside the huge waterfall –

[I guess I need to move.]

– The head of a huge turtle popped out.

thud!

The ground cracks and collapses in an instant just because the turtle’s head breaks through the waterfall.

Even as the trees around him were mercilessly destroyed and the ground collapsed, Zhong Liquan spoke with a calm expression as he looked at the turtle jumping out of the waterfall.

“There was no need to show your face.”

[I didn’t see it because of you. It was shown to change seats.]

“No matter where I move around with this huge body, I’m going to get caught?”

The turtle tsk and frowns at the words of Zhong Li-quan, who talks as if it’s fun… No, [

You’re probably the only immortal who disturbs this Xuanwu’s sleep.]

Xuanwu spoke while looking at Zhong Li-quan.

Zhong Liquan smiled and spoke.

“Well, first of all, I have the name Zhongli Quan, but I’m not just a hermit.”

[So what did you come to ask about?]

Hyeonmu’s question.

“Well, actually, there are a lot of things to ask, but that’s what I’m curious about right now.”

[That?]

“Your relationship with friends.”

Hearing Zhong Liquan’s words, Xuanwu thought for a moment and then spoke.

[You mean those guys?]

“Yeah, it was a little strange.”

[What’s strange?]

“The Firebird was completely unaware of the existence of tigers?”

[…What is he doing?]

In response to Xuanwu’s question, Zhong Liquan talked about what had happened in the labyrinth and how he brought Barche to Seogeumtaesan a little while ago.

[…I didn’t know either.]

“You didn’t know either?”

[In the first place, that tiger guy doesn’t say a word from beginning to end and just does things his own way. But what you’re curious about is that even Suzaku has no idea what he’s doing… What does this mean?]

“That’s right.”

In response to Zhong Liquan’s words, Hyeonmu spoke as if there was nothing else to say.

[Of course, it’s because those two had a fight in the past where you should die and I should die. After that, we probably lost contact with each other, but of course we don’t know.]

Zhong Liquan nodded while speaking at Hyunmu’s words.

“Of course, I know that, and the Firebird really hates talking about tigers, so last time the Firebird came, I deliberately didn’t tell him what the tiger was doing, but I didn’t know that he really didn’t know.”

Hearing Zhong Liquan’s words, Xuanmu shook his huge head left and right and spoke.

[Why do you care about such things? They will take care of their own affairs. Rather than that, I’m more curious about why that tiger guy is doing that there.]

“That goes for me too.”

Zhong Liquan’s answer.

Hyeonmu seemed to think about it for a while.

[…I guess it’s going to get noisy sooner or later.] He

muttered that and let out a knowing sigh as he pushed his head into the waterfall again.

The huge body of Hyeonmu that was shaking like that –

Boom!

It became a mountain again.

Kim Joo-hyuk was able to return to the Labyrinth Lord’s office again with a story about seeing the guide in real life next time.

And Kim Joo-hyuk planned to organize his thoughts right then and there.

Right now, Kim Joo-hyuk learned a lot through meeting this guide.

Starting with the story about Hwasin, the guide even left a clue for Kim Joo-hyuk to find the next name before he returned.

‘Perhaps the clue to the next name is at Mt. Cheonak. If you go there, you may be able to remember additional names. So go whenever you have time. Of course, prepare well.’

Because he heard that story, Kim Joo-hyuk was planning to head to Cheonaksan Mountain as soon as he returned.

From the conversation with Jong Li-kwon and the subsequent conversation with the guide, Kim Joo-hyuk found a reason to move forward.

however.

“…What is this?”

Kim Joo-hyuk looked at his students.

The disciples looked like they had fought a very fierce fight.

And below those disciples.

“Keuuuuuuuuu…!”

A man was struggling violently beneath the disciples.

A man who is unable to do anything while his entire body is wrapped in chains of magical energy.

“When we came up to report, we found that he had broken into the Lord of the Labyrinth’s office alone.”

“…there was a break-in?”
