The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 030
“Anyway, all the other people who were the same age as me call me hyung or noona just fine, but with Kim Soyun, I just can’t bring myself to call her noona no matter what.”
He added that he still calls her properly in public to avoid messing up the family hierarchy, then relaxed his expression.
I nodded vigorously in agreement with his words again. If a childhood friend told me to call them oppa, I’d probably react the same way.
“Speaking of which, about Serin’s memory loss.”
The eyes reflected in the rearview mirror gleamed sharply. A cold sweat ran down my back at the unexpected topic.
“From when do you not remember anything?”
This would be when Tranquil Composure should kick in, but it was quiet. Don’t tell me it won’t activate just because it’s Kang Seo-u asking.
Come to think of it, it only seemed to appear when my emotions were stirred by Kim Igyeol.
I glanced at Kim Igyeol then looked forward again.
I hadn’t gotten a proper answer from Anser so I’d forgotten about it, but I should ask Antares about the difference between unique skills and regular skills next time.
In the still interior where he seemed to be waiting for my answer, I tried not to show my panic as I spoke.
“Uh, I know about the dungeon break, but I don’t really know about other things so I searched them up.”
“You don’t know about your family either?”
“My family too…”
I know but can’t say. I swallowed the rest of my words and scratched my nose.
I had hoped we’d arrive quickly without getting caught at traffic lights, but the car stopped again.
Kang Seo-u turned around and looked at my awkward expression, asking in a serious voice.
“By any chance, is your brother’s name Jin Sehyeok?”
Why wouldn’t it be? You’re thinking correctly. I bit my lips that wanted to answer and swallowed my words.
Just as I shook my head in denial and he tilted his head to speak again, the car shook violently and Kang Seo-u frantically hit the brakes in panic.
I turned my eyes from Kang Seo-u to the window and couldn’t help but be horrified. The bridge that had been fine just moments ago was cracking.
It was a precursor symptom of a sudden dungeon.
Kang Seo-u tried to step on the accelerator and drive, but the car wouldn’t move forward as if caught on something.
“Kids, get out and run to solid road. Quickly!”
Kang Seo-u, whose eyes were unusually sharp as he scanned the surroundings, shouted urgently at us.
However, before we could even get out of the car, there was a rumbling sound and the bridge began collapsing rapidly.
There was a gaze watching the moment the bridge collapsed and the vehicle fell into the sea.
“Jay, dungeon opening complete.”
A woman with her hair tied up high reported to a man with an indifferent expression.
The man called Jay didn’t look at the woman and commanded while putting on thin leather gloves.
“Good work. Return first.”
“Yes, come back early.”
The woman pulled out paper from thin air and tore it, disappearing instantly.
The man left alone slowly admired the bridge that had become a scene of chaos.
There seemed to be an error in the range setting, as the collapse range was smaller than expected.
Only one car had fallen into the sea, with several cars precariously hanging.
People on the intact road were desperately trying to save those in the cars.
‘It was successful, so that’s fine.’
Jay, satisfied that despite falling into the sea there was no splash sound or floating car, raised one corner of his mouth crookedly.
Constellation ‘Descent of the Undying Touch’ laughs heartily, saying as expected of someone I personally chose.
Jay’s constellation also laughed with satisfaction while watching the same scene.
“H-hello? Is this 119? This is Incheon Bridge and the bridge has collapsed!”
“Hey, the car that fell into the sea earlier isn’t floating. Did we report it wrong?”
“A vehicle definitely fell into the sea but we can’t see any. Please come quickly!”
“No, you idiot! It’s a dungeon! Don’t you see the system? You need to report to 199, not there!”
At the sounds he heard, Jay glanced in that direction. Two people were in confusion at the end of the severed road.
He briefly frowned at the chattering sounds, but Jay was in a good mood due to the successful forced dungeon opening, so he decided to show rare mercy.
“Hello?! Is this the Hunter Association!”
The Association wouldn’t be able to save those who fell down there anyway.
Jay let out a sneer and disappeared without leaving a trace.
I opened my eyes feeling the pain of blood rushing to my head. Then I closed them again.
Did Earth… decide to eliminate gravity now? Or did it change to work in reverse?
Shocked by the unbelievable sight, I carefully lifted my eyelids to check again.
The sky was still attached to the sky, no wait, this doesn’t make sense. The sky was below. I think I’m the one who’s upside down.
But somehow the scenery I was seeing wasn’t ordinary. I held my throbbing head and looked around.
We definitely fell into the sea, but everything around us was pure white.
Ice-cold wind came through the slightly open window, making the inside of the car chilly. Snowy plains stretched out before my eyes.
I hurriedly called out to the two people who seemed unconscious.
“Both of you, ahem, are you alive?”
My voice came out slightly hoarse, probably from taking the cold wind head-on.
But neither of them moved at all in response to my words.
I reflexively opened the status window.
Contractor: Kim Igyeol(B)
If a contractor dies, the contract is automatically terminated. Fortunately, my contractor was still Kim Igyeol.
Thank goodness. Not yet.
It might be too early to feel relieved. Wherever this was, we had fallen from a great height.
I might be fine since I’m a constellation, but I thought the humans might have gone into cardiac arrest.
Recovery potions and items could only be effective if the heart was beating.
If their hearts had stopped, there would be no way to save the two of them in this place without healing hunters, and this realization made me suddenly afraid.
Skill 【Tranquil Composure】 is activated.
“An! No, that won’t do.”
I bit my tongue as I was about to call Antares. Instead, I looked for Anser who had been out of sight.
“Anser. Where are you, are you okay?”
⌈I’m okay! I’m outside, baby.⌋
At the voice echoing in my head, I looked outside the window. A crimson tail was supporting the vehicle.
So Anser’s tail had acted as a cushion.
“Does your tail hurt?”
⌈No, my tail is sturdy so it’s fine! Baby, is your body okay?⌋
It was an anxious voice. She was probably remembering when I suddenly had a nosebleed last time.
“Yeah, I’m fine thanks to you. Thank you.”
After telling Anser to come back in now, I shook Kim Igyeol who was next to me.
“Wake up. Get it together.”
“…My head is ringing.”
After a long while, Kim Igyeol mumbled quietly to speak softly. I asked in a smaller voice than before.
“Your heart, is your heart beating well? Is there anywhere that feels strange or hurts?”
Thinking that as long as he didn’t die, other places didn’t matter much, my questions came out in a jumbled order.
The Tranquil something notification appeared again, but that wasn’t my concern right now.
At my urgent question, Kim Igyeol slowly checked his physical condition.
He tried moving his arms in the cramped space and placed his hand on his chest to breathe deeply.
“My whole body is a bit stiff, but my heart is fine.”
“Ha, thank god. I was startled thinking he was going to die….”
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m fine. But Seo-u oppa….”
Even as I spoke, my mind raced quickly.
Was there an episode in the original where Kang Seo-u died? He had been seriously injured before, but he never died. Then he should regain consciousness here.
This place had already changed many things from the original I knew.
Even the small flutter of a butterfly’s wings can cause unexpectedly large results later, and isn’t this change bigger than a butterfly’s wing flutter?
What would happen if Kang Seo-u died here?
What was the reason I couldn’t go to my brother again?
He was trying to save the world for his dead sister, but if I had known things would change this much, would it have been better to just go?
My thoughts became jumbled together.
Despite regaining my composure with the Tranquility skill earlier, I was once again overwhelmed by anxiety. Since Kang Seo-u wasn’t a contractor, the skill wouldn’t activate again.
Kim Igyeol, who keenly noticed me starting to bite my nails, stopped me in a low voice.
“Don’t do that. Hyung will be fine.”
Kim Igyeol reached out to lower my hand, then moved his hand to wake up Kang Seo-u.
“Ugh.”
I had only closed my eyes for a moment, but a strange sound came from the front seat.
