The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 033

 

Along with the ferocious voice, a fierce blizzard obscured our vision.

 

Starting from Kang Seo-u’s response, the internal temperature dropped and the blizzard began to blow increasingly stronger.

 

Even though nothing was visible before our eyes, we could continuously hear gunshots and the sound of something being struck down with a blade.

 

While listening to those sounds, I quietly called for Anser. Anser perked up his ears at my call.

 

“Could I ask you for one favor?”

 

⌈Anything!⌋

 

“The core orb, can you bring it? You’ll have to do it without those two noticing.”

 

Being able to use divine words meant being a constellation, so perhaps purification was possible like with Anser.

 

I had some curiosities before making it disappear like this.

 

He nodded as if understanding my hastily added words.

 

The fox tapped my hand with his nose as if telling me to trust only him, then quietly moved toward the throne.

 

I watched that figure intently and then informed him of the core’s false location through a message.

 

Constellation ‘Noble One Who Returned from Death’ stretches their body, saying their shoulders feel stiff today for some reason.

 

Constellation ‘Noble One Who Returned from Death’ grumbles that if you’re going to reveal your awakening, you should also wear the winter gear they gave you.

 

Seeing Kim Igyeol’s hands trembling slightly from the lowered temperature, I also mentioned the item I had given him earlier.

 

Kim Igyeol, who confirmed the message, changed his outer clothing and shouted.

 

“Hyung, the shoulder!”

 

For the fake location, I mentioned a spot as close as possible to the real location, which was the face. That way it would look like a part the monster seemed to be unconsciously protecting.

 

Kim Igyeol, who confirmed the message, immediately relayed the information to Kang Seo-u.

 

Since this was a monster that even the original Jin Sehyeok had struggled with, the two couldn’t handle it easily.

 

The bullets Kang Seo-u fired repeatedly got stuck in walls or the floor.

 

Before we knew it, blue trees had sprouted across the white snowy plains.

 

Kim Igyeol, who glanced at those trees, swiftly climbed up onto them. Kang Seo-u, surprised by the sudden action, shouted.

 

“What are you trying to do?”

 

“Hyung, just keep shooting.”

 

Kim Igyeol gave an evasive answer and moved to the next tree. He boldly stepped forward without caring about the increasingly higher positions of the trees.

 

Kang Seo-u hesitated but followed Kim Igyeol’s words.

 

Despite the pouring bullets, Cassiopeia didn’t come down from the throne.

 

While Kang Seo-u drew her attention, Kim Igyeol stealthily approached and thrust his sword into her shoulder blade.

 

[Kiyaaaak!!!!]

 

An unpleasant, shrill scream filled the space. I unconsciously covered my ears.

 

After doing that for a moment, feeling like I had forgotten something, I shouted to the two.

 

“Come back behind me, quickly!”

 

Despite the incomprehensible words, the two dutifully listened to me.

 

While the two returned to my side, Cassiopeia clutched her wounded shoulder and raised the corners of her mouth in a sneer.

 

Cassiopeia, who instinctively realized it was time for her to disappear, made one last desperate struggle.

 

⌈I just became the version of myself created in their story!⌋

 

It was the most bitter-sounding voice I had heard so far. After finishing her divine words, she continued screaming.

 

I frowned at the feeling piercing my mind.

 

When I turned my head toward Cassiopeia, I saw her mouth opened to its limit.

 

Ah, wait a moment.

 

Before I could say anything to stop it, icicles poured out from her gaping mouth.

 

Constellation ‘Noble One Who Returned from Death’ urges you to deploy the sanctuary now!

 

He pulled me and Kang Seo-u toward him and declared the sanctuary. A golden circle appeared beneath Kim Igyeol’s feet.

 

I was anxious because there was no protective barrier covering our heads, but it was needless worry. The icicles that entered the sanctuary disappeared before they could pour down on us.

 

The effect is definite.

 

The icicles that fell around the sanctuary made sizzling sounds as they melted the floor. Kang Seo-u and Kim Igyeol were slightly startled.

 

“The icicles are melting the floor? I thought it was an ice-attribute monster, but did it also have poison attributes?”

 

Kang Seo-u’s mouth fell open as he watched the icicles falling from all directions.

 

The icicles that Cassiopeia spewed out as her last act contained harmful substances that would later be called ice spikes, which permanently paralyzed pain receptors.

 

Originally, this was what the monsters of this dungeon would pour out as their final struggle when disappearing.

 

‘Anser, are you okay?’

 

⌈Yeah, I’m fine. I’m undoing my materialization. I’ll be right there!⌋

 

My worry for Anser, who wasn’t in the sanctuary, was brief, and I breathed a sigh of relief at his words about undoing materialization.

 

While the three of us just watched the pouring ice spikes, another voice echoed in my head.

 

⌈Cassiopeia, how did you become such a hideous star.⌋

 

⌈…Antares? How dare a lowly scorpion speak my name!!⌋

 

It was Antares, who had only been watching.

 

Antares, who had somehow appeared as a small light on my shoulder, spoke again.

 

⌈You have been deceived.⌋

 

⌈That can’t be! What do you know to babble such things!⌋

 

⌈Wasn’t your original time to appear not winter?⌋

 

As if Antares’s words hit the mark, the ice spikes that had been pouring mercilessly stopped.

 

The two, who couldn’t know about this conversation, simply considered it the end of the monster’s final struggle and tried to move stealthily.

 

Cassiopeia, who had been lost in thought, screamed again.

 

⌈Orobos, to deceive me! I shouldn’t have trusted a mere snake!⌋

 

As expected!

 

My eyes sparkled at the unfamiliar name. Deciding to purify Cassiopeia had been a good choice.

 

Though incomplete, I had heard the villain’s name.

 

Since it was a name not revealed even in the original work, I was a bit confused about whether it was really the villain’s name. But it must be right.

 

With the ability to replace a constellation with a boss monster, how could it not be?

 

As the ice spikes that had stopped began falling again, I focused back on the fight.

 

When Kim Igyeol, who had thought it was over and had withdrawn the sanctuary, tried to deploy it again, I saw an ice spike about to touch his body.

 

I reflexively reached out my arm. I felt a slightly stinging sensation like getting an injection.

 

Fortunately, it seemed no one saw it, as the nagging that should have come out long ago remained quiet.

 

I swung my arm around to test it, and it seemed still fine.

 

‘And I’m a constellation, so I should be okay?’

 

Antares, who read my carefree thoughts, clicked his tongue hard and grumbled.

 

⌈That, that foolish one.⌋

 

‘Ah, you haven’t left yet?’

 

He scolded me, saying I’d have to suffer greatly once before I’d fix this habit.

 

Still, wasn’t I better than Kim Igyeol? He’s human and I’m a constellation.

 

That thought must have shown on my face.

 

⌈You seem to have forgotten that your synchronization isn’t complete yet.⌋

 

The direction of the nagging changed. He constantly warned me to remember that synchronization wasn’t finished yet, saying I was still half human.

 

Antares sighed and disappeared at my appearance of shrugging my shoulders as if I didn’t know about such things.

 

At the same time, Kim Igyeol and Kang Seo-u, thinking their attack was insufficient, attacked the monster again.

 

Fortunately, there were no more falling ice spikes.

 

A gun was aimed at Cassiopeia, who kept muttering in shock.

 

Bang!

 

The bullet seed advanced, transformed into a tree, and burrowed into Cassiopeia’s shoulder.

 

At the same time, a system window appeared.

 

Error occurred! Error occurred!

 

Searching for the dungeon master.

 

Search result: Does not exist.

 

Due to the absence of a dungeon master, dungeon ‘Beautiful Snowy Plains (S)’ will automatically collapse.

 

The dungeon will close in 1 hour.

 

“What? Suddenly closing?”

 

Those who had been fighting stopped moving at the series of windows that appeared.

 

Anser quietly returned to my side. A small, murky silver orb was spat out from the fox’s mouth.

 

I caught the orb and quickly opened my subspace to throw it inside.

 

Just as I closed the entrance, I made eye contact with Kim Igyeol who had turned around.

 

In case he was going to ask if I got hurt again, I preemptively gave him a thumbs up. I didn’t do anything, but I’m rejecting questions in advance.

 

“Well, look at this.”

 

Kang Seo-u, who had been rummaging through the spot where Cassiopeia disappeared, muttered as if amazed.

 

“There’s no core?”

 

Like someone examining a crime scene, he had somehow put on gloves and a mask and was lifting the fabric with a skewer that came from who knows where.

 

He spent a long time just lifting through the clothes Cassiopeia had left behind, searching for the orb that was already rolling around in my subspace.

 

I didn’t stop him and took off my outer clothing.

 

With the boss monster gone, the dungeon’s fierce cold had subsided. Now that it was the same weather as outside, the thick clothes were hot.

 

The cold weather gear I gave Kim Igyeol didn’t even get used. I thought leisurely as I watched Kim Igyeol approaching.

 

Kim Igyeol circled around me and grabbed my left arm, asking.

 

“Why is this part of you like this?”
