Chapter 468

In fact, promising to support another candidate wasn’t as easy as it seemed. That was especially true if the candidate was from the opposing party.

In the United States, the relationship between the ruling party and opposition party had always been poor. In recent years, it had been getting worse and worse, not better.

It was to the extent that if President George, a Republican Democrat, introduced a bill, those from the Liberal Federalist Party wouldn't even look at it and would say, “All members must vote against it! Whoever votes for it is a traitor!’

Those weren’t just empty threats. The party couldn’t afford to have one of its members act on their personal beliefs and vote for a bill passed by the opposite party.

If someone actually did that, they would immediately be bombarded with criticism from supporters. Then, the party would make sure that they never had a chance to run in any elections.

In other words, that person would be buried in the political world.

On that note, what if one of the big names in the party declared his support for the other party’s candidate? His party wouldn’t be upset but livid.

Having heard how the American political parties operated, Choi Yeonseung felt a bit bad for Governor Kenny.

‘I guess he’s so desperate about the situation in Texas that he can’t think properly.’

Surely, Kenny never would’ve agreed to such a shady deal under normal circumstances...

Choi Yeonseung and Governor Kenny looked at each other with rueful expressions, both of them lamenting how pitiful the other person was!

***

The Bubbling Mass of Plague was quite a lucky case among the evil god constellations. Infectious diseases were a subject of intense fear all over Earth.

If the good god constellations received faith to becstronger, the evil god constellations becstronger through fear.

In that respect, the Bubbling Mass of Plague had an advantage over other constellations like the Beast of Swords and Spears.

There were far more people who were afraid of infectious diseases than of cold weapons or beasts.

[The ‘Bubbling Mass of Plague’ laughs loudly.]

As such, the plague constellation had been overjoyed lately.

The plague constellation used to wander around the outskirts of the Abyss by itself, dejectedly spreading disease in desolate areas. However, as soon as it cto Earth, its power of existence immediately soared and becgreater.

Moreover, the invasion of the evil god constellations provided another opportunity.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ asks what you are doing right now.]

[He tells you to advance quickly.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ warns that he will cut you down if you don’t advance.]

[The ‘Bubbling Mass of Plague’ urgently stops the constellations, saying that it knows better!]

Of course, the other evil god constellations were quite annoyed with the plague constellation. They were ill-tempered by nature, so they were naturally irritated by the fact that the plague constellation had amplified its power of existence without even engaging in a proper battle.

Since it wasn’t a combat-type constellation, the plague constellation faced more persecution than others.

[The ‘Goddess of Discord and Estrangement’ announces that enemy reinforcements are coming.]

All the evil god constellations at the scene were visibly uncomfortable when the Goddess of Discord and Estrangement contacted them.

It wasn’t just the good god constellations; evil god constellations were also reluctant toward evil god constellations.

The Goddess of Discord and Estrangement was the only constellation that benefited from the disagreements between her peers.

As for the other evil god constellations, they were naturally wary of the Goddess of Discord and Estrangement because she never hesitated to do wicked things in order to increase their power.

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ asks what kind of enemies are coming.]

[The ‘Goddess of Discord and Estrangement’ says that the household members of the Undefeated Incarnation of Training, the Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead, the Observer Who Returned From a Cold Place, and of the Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons have arrived in this area.]

Everyone was shocked at her explanation. They knew humans fought in an unusual way, but they hadn’t expected such powerful enemies to cat them!

[The ‘Bubbling Mass of Plague’ asks why they are coming here!]

[Aren’t there many other places?]

The others glared at the plague constellation as it shouted without any dignity. They couldn’t believe that such an insignificant mass of disease was among the top thirty constellations on Earth.

[The ‘Goddess of Discord and Estrangement’ says that good luck is always followed by bad luck.]

[She encourages you to work hard.]

With that, the Goddess of Discord and Estrangement disappeared.

Among the evil god constellations, smade a nfor themselves by causing discord and chaos, and others by plotting behind the scenes and flourishing like that.

The goddess of discord was the latter.

The other evil god constellations were furious, feeling that the goddess of discord had played them for fools, but they had to focus on extinguishing the fire first.

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ says to get all the household members together.]

[The ‘Giant with the First Flame’ says it is better to step back.]

[The ‘Beast of Swords and Spears’ is asking what kind of nonsense this is.]

However, instead of cooperating and coming to a common agreement, the evil god constellations proceeded to bicker with each other again, and the Bubbling Mass of Plague was troubled by this.

...At this point, wasn’t it better to just surrender to the other side? It wasn’t like it wanted to be the master of Earth anyway...

“The hunters of Texas are the most courageous and ferocious hunters in the United States!”

Governor Kenny looked at Choi Yeonseung apprehensively on the plane, constantly worrying that he would change his mind and go back.

“Are Texan hunters really like that?”

Of course, Choi Yeonseung was confused. Hadn’t Kenny said something else about those hunters back in his office?

One thing that all American hunters had in common was that they all boasted that their harea was the best in terms of hunter-related business.

Hunters from New York insisted that their city had the best hunters out there, and those from LA would disagree and claim that they were ten times better.

However, Choi Yeonseung hadn’t really heard people say that hunters from Texas were great or even okay. Rather, he only heard things like “Texan hunters are dogshit” or “Texan hunters have a screw loose.”

Illeya also cocked her head at Kenny’s words, as she had heard the sthings as Choi Yeonseung.

“Uh, of course, you’ll realize how brave and awesthe clans in Texas are once you see them in person!”

As the plane was about to land in Dallas Airport, Choi Yeonseung managed to see what the situation was like in Texas.

From above, Dallas seemed like a miniature version of the Abyss.

‘It’s never a good thing for Earth to look like the Abyss.’

Sareas were being consumed by blazing flames, while others were being destroyed by transformed beasts and low-level monsters. In addition, civilians were being evacuated as the last remaining buildings were collapsing...

Even if they somehow managed to take care of this crisis, an astronomical amount of money would be needed for reparations.

Spit!

“You piece of shit governor! What are you doing? You just took your plane and fucked off at a tlike this?!”

“Get out of here!”

“...”

“...”

Choi Yeonseung and Illeya were baffled to see a bunch of hunters, who seemed like they had been waiting at the airport, cup to the governor and spit in his face.

“Agh, you son of a bitch... I told you multiple times that I had to fly away to get support!”

Governor Kenny was furious at the hunter for spitting on him, so he cursed back and lunged at them. However, his bodyguards panicked and jumped to stop him.

“How can I let this go? I’m getting rid of these pieces of garbage today! You bastards! Do you know how much trouble I’ve gone through while moving around to ask for help?!”

“Good! Bring it on! We’re going to elect a new governor today!”

“...”

Surprisingly, Choi Yeonseung seemed to enjoy watching this circus, but he cto his senses when Illaphael tapped him on the shoulder.

‘Oops, I should actually do something.’

Choi Yeonseung intervened and got Governor Kenny to stop. After all, he was just an old man, and he wouldn’t have stood a chance against the hunters anyway.

“Calm down. Now is not the tto fight.”

“I-I’m sorry... That was unacceptable of me...”

Governor Kenny remembered that Choi Yeonseung was behind him and blushed. He had wanted to maintain his dignity in front of his guests, but it had all gone to waste because of those hunters.

“Who’s that person?”

“Listen up! Hunter Choi Yeonseung has chere to help. It’s not just him, but the household members of other constellations...”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

“...”

The governor’s face turned red again. These hunters really...

The clan leaders snorted and kept mocking the governor.

“Stop spewing nonsense! Hunter Choi Yeonseung wouldn’t cto this place unless he was hit in the head!”

“Yeah. Besides, you’ve said five times that you’d bring an A-grade hunter here, and you’ve failed each time. You should try harder than bringing an impostor!”

‘Wasn’t the governor supposed to have more authority than this?’

Aine had described the governor’s position in the United States as honorable and powerful, equivalent to that of a state’s president... However, seeing how Governor Kenny was being treated, Choi Yeonseung thought it was an insignificant and pitiful position.

In fact, Choi Yeonseung was embarrassed that he was going to obtain a declaration of support from Governor Kenny...

Thud!

One of the clan leaders shoved Choi Yeonseung and said, “Hey, don’t stand there like a statue and say something! If you were an A-grade hunter, you wouldn’t just stand there like that...”

Bam!

Choi Yeonseung immediately used Origin of the Celestial Fist and punched the clan leader in the chin. He controlled his strength so as the hunter wouldn’t die. However, it was enough to knock him out cold.

The clan leader went limp akin to a doll with its string cut.

“...Clan leader!”

“I-is he really Hunter Choi Yeonseung??”

“How...? Why is he here...?”

***

After learning what was going on, the clan leaders dispelled their doubts and hesitantly bowed to Choi Yeonseung.

“I’m really sorry, Hunter Choi Yeonseung. I didn’t expect an A-grade hunter to cto our aid in a situation like this.”

“Yes,too! Especially because of how busy everyone is!”

“It’s understandable. You can becsharper if you’re pushed to the limits.”

Governor Kenny cursed at the clan leaders in his mind. They had to apologize to him for spitting on him, and yet they were only apologizing to Hunter Choi Yeonseung...

“Now, tellwhat’s going on. Have you detected a boss monster?”

If Choi Yeonseung wanted to retake the territory, the first thing he needed to pay attention to was the boss monster raid.

If there was a powerful boss, the other monsters would coordinate and inflict a lot more damage than usual.

“Rather than a strong raid leader, there are dozens of powerful monsters summoned by the constellations going rampart. There are also many monsters that have emerged from dungeons.”

“I’ve heard that several evil god constellations are fiercely fighting each other to take control of this area. This isn’t the kind of situation that’s resolved by killing a boss monster. We have to get rid of the evil god constellations themselves... But how can we manage that?”

These clan leaders also served constellations, so they knew what the situation was in the Abyss. As long as the evil god constellations were actively fighting for this place, the hunters wouldn’t be able to deal with this crisis just by killing a few monsters.

Choi Yeonseung was also aware of that, so he nodded in understanding.

‘I have to fight a constellation battle or deal with their household members first. They’re probably hiding somewhere.’

Choi Yeonseung had brought Illeya with him precisely because of that kind of fight. If it were a simple matter of killing monsters, Choi Yeonseung would be able to deal with it by himself.

-You need to be careful if several evil god constellations are working together. They’re many times trickier to deal with when they join forces.

-I know.

Choi Yeonseung knew what the goddess of sloth was worried about.

Just as unattractive people rejoiced when they found someone as unattractive as them, sometimes bad guys had great synergy with each other.

Choi Yeonseung had defeated the Expert of Twisted Hallucinations, but he had done that with trickery and a very specific strategy revolving around the opponents’ hallucinations.

Thus, he couldn’t tell how things would turn out if it cdown to a confrontation of raw power and strength.

[The ‘Bubbling Mass of Plague’ asks if you will let it retreat if it surrenders.]

[The ‘Six-Winged Angel Who Hunts Dragons’ says there is no need to be fooled by such a trick. He suggests attacking right away.]
