episode_0001

On the day the constellations appeared, the era of mankind came to an end.

Bugs began to think like humans, followed by animals, and then even plants.

[A nameless constellation watches over you.]

Because of their similarity to humans, humanity fell into ruin, and the era of the constellations began.

The constellations each chose an incarnation, and these chosen incarnations soon became the center of the new society.

Countries, regions, cities, towns.

All this order was reorganized into the hands of powerful incarnate families.

And I was pursued by the notorious Noah family, among others.

Noah Kushi, the eldest daughter of the Noah family. She was chased by her childhood friend and older sister’s disciple.

Bam! Bam!

“Where’s our Nok? Are you trying to play tag?”

The purple eyes that were said to dazzle people looked around.

The eyes of the Noah family had a power similar to brainwashing, and Noah Kush tried to use that power on me.

I felt betrayed by that sight and ran away, and now she was chasing me.

“Hello, Melting~.”

Then my eyes met hers.

The purple eyes mixed with love and hate touched the depths of my subconscious.

[Mental erosion begins.]

[An unnamed constellation expresses its displeasure.]

[Erosion failed due to the protection of the backbone.]

I was about to lose consciousness and be brainwashed, but I came to my senses thanks to my older sister.

I ran hard over the barricade.

Noah Kush came over, breaking down the barricade.

Her weapon, the ‘Nephilim’, glowed with its eyes.

The Nephilim of Noah Kush.

A magical scythe that can cut without killing anyone.

That scythe was a weapon her older sister had given her as a gift.

I heard he told me not to come near him, but Noah Kush approached me regardless of the conditions.

[An unnamed constellation inflicts divine punishment.]

Chijichijichijichi!

“Gyaaah!”

[An unnamed constellation orders flight.]

“Pipe. Where is the pipe?”

[Sponsor a branch.]

“Over there?”

Thanks to my older sister, I quickly hid inside the pipe.

There are emergency exits and supplies on the other side, so if you just get there you should be able to get out of here.

As I walked, I took a deep breath, but Noah Kush’s voice did not fade away.

“Melt! I’m here! Don’t run away!”

[An unnamed constellation clutches its head in annoyance.]

Noah Kush has been persistent in his pursuit of me.

No matter where I was, he would come and watch me, and he would continue to commit crimes such as kidnapping me.

But I kept our friendship because I knew it was to protect me from the outside world.

But as time passed, his expression darkened and he became overprotective, even locking me in the house.

Also, many people related to me died because of her excessive obsession.

He executed the people in his household, deeming them unclean just by brushing against them, talking to them, or even looking at them.

So I was scared of her.

“Found it.”

Noah Kush’s voice rang out eerily.

I struggled desperately to escape.

Boom boom boom.

Noah Kush came in, squeezing the pipe.

The light of the first stage of Transcendence radiated from her.

“Get out of here! Get out of here!”

“Were you scared? It’s okay. I’m here now. I’ll hug and comfort you in your place. You just need to come with your body. I’ll do the rest. So, just stay right there. I’ll be there soon······.”

“Get out of here, I don’t need it!”

[Sponsor the mud.]

Thick mud blocked the way.

But Kushi approached him, not caring about his dirty clothes.

“Oh really. Sister! Why are you being so annoying? You came dressed up to meet Nok.”

[Sponsor the rock.]

“Ah, come on!”

[Sponsor Oil.]

He desperately tried to get out of the pipe, kicking his feet.

Swish!

Then it came out of the pipe.

[Sponsor Cement.]

[Sponsor Cement.]

[Sponsor Cement.]

[Sponsor Cement.]

As soon as I got out of the pipe, a large amount of cement blocked the entrance.

Even Noah Kushner will have a hard time getting through this.

I took a breath and packed the bag I had prepared in advance.

“Haa, haa. I thought I got caught.”

[A nameless constellation comforts you.]

“It’s okay. I made it with the intention of throwing everything away. It was hard to make, but it’s better than getting caught.”

[An unnamed constellation feels sorry for you.]

I took the goblin mask and hat out of my bag and put them on.

I climbed up the ladder and opened the manhole cover.

Creak.

I carefully closed the manhole cover and realized where I was.

‘I didn’t want to come here.’

It was a back alley in the red-light district on the outskirts of , the largest city in the Western Continent.

As soon as I stepped out onto the street, I saw some men swearing and some women going inside, lured by the men.

I ran as fast as I could to escape this place where human trafficking, rape and violence were rampant.

“Is that you?”

“I don’t know. It could be over there.”

But it wasn’t easy to escape from the pursuers of Noah’s family.

I wandered around as far away as possible, avoiding the eyes of my pursuers, and approached the enormous curtain that was spread out before my eyes.

‘It’s a tollgate.’

The boundary of the curtain dividing one region from another.

You have to go through there to escape Noah Kush.

I stood in line, taking out my ID and toll fee that I had prepared in advance.

Normally it would take a long time, but thanks to the people who had pre-ordered, it was shortened and it seemed like it could be done in a few hours.

‘There’s nothing I can do because Hi-pass is too expensive.’

I looked up at the sky.

Helicopters and planes flew by occasionally.

Most of those who use it are probably from good families or are incarnations.

I used to use it occasionally, but now I can’t use it because of this problem.

I looked up at the sky and smacked my lips bitterly.

“Hey, honestly, in this day and age, who would believe such a lie?”

“No, really? The tyrant is alive!”

“You idiot. It’s been a while since the news broke that the tyrant was defeated, so how can you be talking about being alive?”

I listened to the voices of the people.

A familiar name came to my ears.

‘A tyrant.’

tyrant.

The legendary strongest incarnation, with the number of incarnations killed so far exceeding four digits.

“Instead of complaining about tyrants, take care of yourself. Don’t worry about those common people.”

“No··· He’s really alive··· I heard···.”

And the tyrant they were talking about was my older sister.

Real name, Elizabeth.

Nickname: Lisa.

Our older sister, who was called a tyrant, made many enemies.

Among those who did so, there was the government, and I went between life and death countless times, but in the end, my sister, who was fatally wounded, scattered into light and became a constellation, and I was in danger, and most of my comrades died.

Of course, there was an achievement in that the government’s power was greatly reduced, but it was not something to laugh about because it was ultimately defeated.

-Next!

It was my turn and I entered the tollgate.

I placed my luggage on the checkpoint, handed over my ID, and went through a metal detector.

The tollgate agent checked my identity by inserting my ID into the machine.

“Would you please take off your mask?”

“Yep.”

“The hat too.”

“Okay.”

When I showed my face, the tollgate employee paused for a moment.

And at the same time as giving me my identification, they returned all my luggage.

“Just pass by. Have a nice day. Next!”

After passing the tollgate, I entered .

This city is a place where many people live together, and the mayor of this city once did our older sister a favor.

Besides, the mayor’s daughter was my friend, so it was a safe place to stay for a night.

[Sponsor the water potion.]

“Okay, I’ll drink it right away.”

When he drank the potion, a tail and white fur grew.

The sight of the cat-like figure brought back old memories.

[A nameless constellation takes your image.]

[Sponsor the comb.]

[An unnamed constellation says to use it for hair care.]

“Oh my god!”

[A nameless constellation is sad.]

I put on my mask and hat again and went into the huge, tall tower, the city hall.

The city hall was filled with people.

There were some non-human species, but they did not even have two digits in number.

‘There are so many people.’

I pulled out a number and looked at numerous TV screens.

My number is 1,045.

The largest number right now is 547, so I had to wait a long time for it to be my turn.

In the meantime, I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes to take a deep breath.

*

“1,045! Isn’t there number 1,045?”

“Oh, yes!”

I woke up and went to the place where 1,045 was written.

The person in charge of that place was an owl with dark circles under his eyes.

“Hello. How may I help you?”

“I’m a friend of Teria, the daughter of the mayor here. Can you call me Teria? You’ll know when I say goblin mask.”

“Yes, I understand. I’ll contact you.”

Teria is a rabbit sitter and my fourth friend, who I made when I was young by following my older sister who worked as a problem solver.

Its characteristics include white fur, red eyes, and the fact that it is timid and often gets startled.

“You see the stairs on the right? Just go up there.”

“Yes, thank you.”

I bowed to the staff and went up the stairs.

The place I went up to had an elevator, unlike the first floor.

Tiring.

-It’s the second floor.

And then a familiar figure appeared in the elevator.

I hurriedly crouched down next to the elevator, and as the doors opened a familiar silhouette appeared.

“Wow!!!”

“Eww!!!”

He suddenly ran in and startled Teria.

Teria fell over in surprise at my prank.

I laughed at her like that.

“Hey! It’s been years since we last met, and this is what you’re doing?”

“It’s been years since I’ve been like this. Hehe, sloppy.”

Teria didn’t hide her excited expression, but hugged me tightly in joy.

“Long time no see, Enoch.”

“It’s been a while, Teria.”

We hugged each other and felt the joy of reunion.

[An unnamed constellation expresses displeasure at this situation.]

Of course, she wasn’t my older sister.

“But, Melt. Why did you come all of a sudden?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Just let me sleep.”

“Huh?”

“Let me stay for just one night.”

Teria shook her eyes and confirmed my words again.

“So you want me to stay at your house right now?”

“Yeah”

“So there’s a boy in our house? And in the rabbit Suin’s house?”

“Yeah.”

“Uh······ Okay. First, come in. I’ll show you to my room.”

We entered the elevator and pressed the 8th floor.

Teria stood looking at the wall and muttered quietly.

I don’t know what it’s saying, but it was cute to see the rabbit ears and tail moving around.

Ding.

-It’s the 8th floor. The door opens.

The elevator door opened and we arrived at the 8th floor.

I walked towards her room.

I forgot the feeling of loss from losing my place of rest and was left with only the excitement of going to my friend’s room to play.
