The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 054

 

Kang Seo-u stabbed the back of the statue with both hands, performing what looked like a sword dance for quite a while. Should I call it a stick dance?

 

Even so, the statue didn’t show any signs of shrinking.

 

Kim Igyeol, who had been blankly watching, also followed Kang Seo-u in destroying the statue.

 

Moon Wujin was also stabbing with his dagger, but I was just standing there uselessly. Since it was impossible to stab gaps with a gun, I had become completely useless.

 

‘Just stab the gaps. Until you feel that clicking sensation. Shooting guns, slashing with swords, throwing stones are all forbidden.’

 

Since all I had was a gun, I couldn’t understand that feeling, which led to this situation.

 

Kang Seo-u, who had been flying around for a while, noticed me standing still and seemed to realize something, then pulled out an identical stick for me.

 

With all four of us working together, we were able to eliminate about half of the lion statue in no time.

 

Moon Wujin was getting a bit tired and was breathing heavily.

 

“Surprisingly, Serin is fine. Wujin, you really need to exercise more.”

 

Kang Seo-u, who hadn’t shed a single drop of sweat and looked fresh, patted Moon Wujin’s shoulder and went back to his stick dance.

 

At least half of the destroyed statues were done by Kang Seo-u alone, so why doesn’t he look tired at all and seems excited?

 

And is it okay for this to be so easy?

 

Ah, that’s a flag-raising statement.

 

“Oops.”

 

Right then, Kang Seo-u dropped the stick he had been spinning enthusiastically.

 

The stick that fell spinning through the air landed right on top of the statue. The statue changed from gray to dark purple and opened its eyes.

 

The monster that opened its eyes looked around. My eyes met with the wandering silver pupils.

 

Unnamed(A-rank)

 

Core: Gap behind its back

 

I made that easy path difficult, didn’t I.

 

I smacked my forehead. From now on, I should never think at all.

 

I grabbed Moon Wujin and quickly moved away from the monster field.

 

After falling into dungeons several times with Kim Igyeol, I learned that people like us help by staying as far away as possible.

 

Trying to help by hovering around was actually more of a hindrance.

 

Kang Seo-u, who killed the monster with his agile body, experimentally touched a nearby statue.

 

A monster that gained dark purple vitality like before rushed at him. Kang Seo-u easily dispatched it with just a stick without even drawing his gun.

 

“Where did Serin and Wujin go?”

 

He looked around searching for us, then saw us far away and gave us a thumbs up as if we did well.

 

“Wait there! Don’t even think about coming!”

 

I raised my arm and drew a circle to show I understood.

 

After confirming my intention, Kang Seo-u nodded as if relieved, then soon stretched his lips into a smile. That smile actually made us anxious.

 

The stick he raised landed on top of the statue’s head instead of in a hole.

 

“Hyung, what are you doing?!”

 

“This is more fun!”

 

I had momentarily forgotten. In 【The End】, there’s another crazy person as insane as Jin Sehyeok. That crazy dopamine addict!

 

As the monsters that turned into living, breathing states began to move, the ground shook so much it was hard to stand.

 

I took Moon Wujin, who was about to fall, and moved to a spot a bit further away.

 

I had to maintain an appropriate distance that wasn’t too far from Kim Igyeol and Kang Seo-u while not interfering with the battle.

 

Once we increased the distance, the ground shook less. It didn’t stop shaking completely, but this was bearable.

 

I felt a gaze from below. Moon Wujin, who had sat down on the ground, was looking up at me.

 

We were just staring at each other wordlessly when he suddenly burst into laughter.

 

“Ah, sorry for laughing. But you’re really unique.”

 

“Suddenly?”

 

“You’re calm even though you got caught up in a dungeon. Like how you grabbed me and got us out of that spot earlier. You looked quite used to it.”

 

“That just happened somehow…? I can’t be a hindrance to the hunters who are fighting.”

 

I mumbled my answer and turned my gaze to the two people confronting the monsters.

 

Since Kim Igyeol fighting over there is my contractor, I guess getting used to it is inevitable.

 

Constellation ‘Noble One Who Returned from Death’ laughs, saying you look quite impressive now that you’ve joined the Association.

 

That was really true. The clumsy appearance completely disappeared and he looked like a real hunter. Oh right, he is a real hunter.

 

“I’m envious.”

 

“Of what?”

 

“How you enter dungeons without hesitation. I was busy avoiding them.”

 

Moon Wujin confessed that he got scared and ran away because that energy was frightening.

 

“If it weren’t for the hyungs today, I probably would have been at the flower bed instead of the art classroom.”

 

“…So that’s why you started watering the flower bed?”

 

“No. I do that because I like it. I’m a plant butler.”

 

This kid breaks stereotypes in many ways. I can’t figure him out.

 

Before I could say anything, Kim Igyeol and Kang Seo-u found us.

 

“Jin Serin! Moon Wujin!”

 

I tried to approach them but grabbed Moon Wujin and stopped. The closer we got to those two, the more my hair stood on end.

 

It’s not over yet, it seems.

 

“Watch out behind you!”

 

A giant statue created from behind stretched out its arm and snatched Kim Igyeol.

 

Kang Seo-u, who barely avoided the statue’s arm, immediately switched weapons and fired bullets at the monster’s arm that was holding Kim Igyeol.

 

Those seed-shaped bullets I saw last time cut through the air. This time they didn’t grow into trees but went straight for the monster.

 

If it had been a simple plaster statue, it would have exploded from the gunshots, but now it couldn’t even make a scratch.

 

Just as I was stamping my feet in frustration, the monster holding Kim Igyeol began to swell at a terrifying rate.

 

The creature, which had grown large enough to overwhelm the surrounding entities, looked around and made eye contact with me. Its silver-gray pupils flashed.

 

Great King Statue Emerging(?)

 

Core: Both eyes

 

The boss has its core in its eyes, not its back.

 

What good does knowing this do? It’s useless to tell Kim Igyeol since he’s captured, and I can’t even talk to Kang Seo-u.

 

“Kugh!”

 

Then the monster began to tighten its grip. Kim Igyeol, who was in its grasp, let out a groan as if he couldn’t endure it.

 

Hearing the sound, Kang Seo-u became impatient and changed his attack target to the face.

 

Yes! There! You’re doing great, Kang Seo-u!

 

The bullet barely grazed the left eyeball. I could see the monster flinch even from far away.

 

There’s no way Kang Seo-u didn’t notice this. He now began to focus his attacks on the eyes.

 

Whoosh!

 

At the sound of wind being cut, my head turned automatically. The monster swung a tail I didn’t even know it had.

 

Thwack!

 

Kang Seo-u, who took the unexpected attack head-on, flew toward one wall.

 

S-rank was S-rank. Despite the fairly fierce-looking attack, Kang Seo-u only got a few scratches, dusted himself off, got up, and attacked the left eye again.

 

The monster wasn’t without intelligence, so when it saw bullets coming, it blocked them with its hard hands.

 

“Ah, this is getting exciting?”

 

Contrary to his words, Kang Seo-u had a flushed face. He roughly swept back his hair and used a skill.

 

A mysterious light between blue and green poured over Kim Igyeol. Kim Igyeol’s expression, which had been contorted in agony, became much more comfortable.

 

That’s 【Spring’s Freedom】. I’ve seen it in the original work. It was a skill that allowed one to gain freedom by escaping from abnormal status conditions for a certain period of time.

 

Kang Seo-u glanced over Kim Igyeol’s condition once, then turned his eyes back to the giant statue.

 

Kang Seo-u was persistently targeting the boss monster’s left eye.

 

Watching him, I turned my gaze and saw the monster’s right profile. I gripped the gun Kang Seo-u had given me earlier. I should take care of the right eye.

 

I raised the gun and took aim. The trembling ground made it difficult to focus. It was even harder since I wasn’t particularly skilled at shooting to begin with.

 

After quickly looking around and sensing that no one was focused on me, I used the 【Litigation’s Argument】 skill.

 

Since it wasn’t a paired sword, the accuracy would be lower, but it was better than having no buff at all.

 

If anyone noticed, I could just insist it was an effect from this gun.

 

Bang!

 

The gunshot rang out and the bullet flew like an arrow. A faint pink light scattered around it before disappearing.

 

Thud!

 

The bullet hit the monster’s eye precisely. The grip holding Kim Igyeol loosened.

 

He dropped to the floor with a thump, gasping for breath.

 

I had aimed wrong due to a last-second slip, but it actually brought about a better result.

 

You have cleared dungeon ‘Unknown(A)’.

 

The dungeon will close in 50 hours.

 

At the same timing, Kang Seo-u’s attack must have hit the opposite eyeball as the clear notification appeared.

 

While I was at it, I checked Kim Igyeol’s progress for the first time in a while.

 

Clear dungeons (17/70 times)

 

It had accumulated quite a bit before I knew it. I had wondered when he’d ever fill all 70 times, but at this pace, it wouldn’t take long.

 

An entrance formed in the distance, and beyond it I could glimpse the hallway I had last seen.

 

Kim Igyeol, who had returned to his usual expression, approached me while emanating a chilly aura.
