## Chapter 1659 – Sword and Black Hair – Celestial Demon Constellation

“Please, Clown…! Can’t you just come at me for once?!”

Please…!

Please!

Stop ruining my plans! There’s a limit to my patience! Kkyaaaaaaak! I don’t need to beat up some messenger of God here!

I barely have any information on them, and planting seeds of suspicion will only cause setbacks! I need to hold back my loaded fist here!

“Kkihihihihit!”

But the Clown betrayed me.
He laughed like a goddamn idiot again.

“It’s good to believe in your own strength, but overconfidence is bad, you knooooow-“
“Alright, fuck this!”

My patience exploded, and I threw a punch at the Clown.

—Kwaang!

An explosive sound erupted.

“—Kwoheoreoeeeok?!”

The moment my fist slammed into his chest, the clown hat and smiling mask he was wearing, along with his goddamn clown suit and pointy magic shoes, all exploded, leaving him stark naked.

—Kukung!

And the Clown went flying!

“Keok?!”

He crashed into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood!

“Fuck! That feels good!”

Unlike me, I actually tried to follow the plan and listened to this moron rambling on and on! My ears! My hands! What about all the cringe I had to endure!

“I should have done this from the start!”

This Kim Gatta is the type to teach people a lesson by punching them when they’re rambling! So what if I took a detour! With this fist, I can smash everything!

I shouldn’t have bothered!

This is the most annoyed I’ve ever been in my life!

“You son of a bitch! Hey! Get up! You dare show your naked body in front of me!”
“Keok… Keuheok…! To, to ambush me so cowardly…!”

The naked Clown had silver hair. His mouth was sewn shut with thread, and he had a monocle in his eye, but I don’t know how he was talking.

“You dare make me cringe? You little shit. Today, I’m turning you into a meatball. Prepare yourself.”
“Kki, kkihihihihit! This won’t do…!”

—Paaat!

In an instant, the naked Clown’s body, which had been slammed into the wall, was restored. Like Adam and Eve who ate the fruit of good and evil, the Clown, now dressed again, rose from his seat, staggering like a zombie.

“Oh? Look at this bastard? He dares to get up?”
“I’ll make you regret being arrogant and relying on your measly strength!”
“But are you even allowed to mess with me? Didn’t you say your god sent you?”
“Hoh, are you going to harp on that point? Tsk tsk! You have a cunning side, unlike your muscles!”
“Agh!”

You goddamn idiot!

“Of course, I’ll limit myself to a simple `punishment`. After all! You are someone those people are watching! I should instill a little respect, or elseeeeeeoreoreoreok?!”

—Kwaaang!

I punched him in the solar plexus again, and his limbs flew off like rocket missiles, turning him into a roly-poly toy. A literal limb explosion.

“Heoreoeeeok?! Wh, what on earth! What kind of power is this…!”

Even though he was a roly-poly toy, the Clown was babbling incoherently, seemingly very surprised this time.

“Hey. Laugh.”
“What?!”
“Laugh, you son of a bitch.”
“Kki, kkihihihit! This is funnnnnnnwook?!”

—Kukung!!

This time, I punched him in the face.

“Gegegek…”

Waves rippled out, and the theater collapsed. The curtains were torn, the chandelier was shattered, and the NPC clowns in the audience who were booing at us all exploded.

“Gelgeel…!”
“Are you mentally ill! Who told you to laugh like that!”

I shouted at his mangled face! This bastard! I really don’t like his monocle and sewn-up mouth for the sake of his damn concept!

“Why aren’t you answering! Why aren’t you answering when I’m asking you something!”
“Kkeuek…! Kki, kkihit. J, just a moment…!”
“Whyaren’tyouansweringwhyaren’tyouansweringwhyaren’tyouansweringwhyaren’tyouansweringkkyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak!!!”

Ughaaaaaaaaak!
I can’t take it anymore!

—Jureureuk!

I immediately grabbed his monocle with my fingers and ripped it out!

“Sseuaaaaaaaaaak!”

I naturally assumed it would be connected to his optic nerve or eyeball, but surprisingly, what came out was some kind of magical energy. This bastard. Is he hiding a spell in his eyeball?

“Are you a terrorist! Huh!”
“Gyaaaaaaaak!”
“Why are you forcibly screaming again and deliberately not answering what I’m saying, making me so frustrateddddddddddd!”

There was a reality that I, even if I became the Celestial Demon and the Emperor, could never change! And that was the fact that these goddamn bastards would never give me a straight answer in one go!

“And how the hell are you talking when your mouth is sewn shut!”
“That is…! Keuheuk! M, m, ma…!”
“Speak properly!”

—Seueuk.

I reached out to his mouth. And grabbing the thread that was sewing his mouth shut, I ripped it off roughly.

—Tteudeudeuk!

His lips burst open, and blood spurted out. At the same time, his mouth opened. I saw something inside. Ah. Is he sealing some kind of monster inside his mouth?

—Ssuuuuuuk!

At the same time, a clown mask with jagged teeth began to emerge from his mouth. It was trying to come from that dimension to this dimension.

So I shoved my fist into his mouth.

“Wilderness Blood Jade Hand.”

A technique I haven’t used in a while. I grabbed the monster’s face inside and blew it up.

“Kelleuk!”

When I pulled my hand out, the Clown, with his jaw dislocated, coughed up magic-infused phlegm.

“Kkihit, kkihihit…! Th, this can’t be…!”
“Wow, you’re still laughing like that even after this? Are you seriously laughing like that, or is it just a concept?”
“Kkihit! Kkihitkkihit! Th, that’s because I was created like th…!”
“Don’t rattle on with things I don’t care about!”
“Eoh?!”

I can’t take it anymore!

“Tear! Tear! Tear it offfff!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaak!”

I immediately plucked out all of his silver hair like chicken feathers, tore off all of his clothes, and then used his chest as a target, firing my fists like crazy.

—Papapapak!

“Keok…!”

At that point, the Clown was trying to die. It’s so stressful to beat someone up while making sure they don’t die when I’m this pissed off.

I want to unleash my full power, but then even the air pressure would be too much for them to handle.

I’ve become someone who has to consider the other person even in this frustrating situation.

“Hoo. Relax. I got a little too excited.”

Unlike me, I got annoyed and ended up getting a little too excited. For the Celestial Demon to act so undignified.

“It’s all your fault…!”

—Kukung.

As I was doing that, the space began to collapse. The ceiling was slowly collapsing, and cracks were starting to appear on the walls.

“Aren’t you going to recover quickly? I deliberately beat you up so you wouldn’t die, you know? I’ll really kill you if you don’t get up?”

I deliberately beat him up so he could recover.

“Kkihit, kkihihit…!”

At those words, the Clown, who had been waiting for an opportunity, laughed and recovered… This bastard is the real deal. I have to give him credit.

“You! You’re strong! Very strong! Kkihihihit!”
“Hehehe, yeah. I’m pretty strong.”
“Who are you! Who is the being that gave you power! Who gave you such immense power! Kkihit!”

Hmm?

“To secretly approach like this! And such an unidentifiable power, I’ve never even heard of it…! Kkihihihit! Who dares to break their rules and do such a thing!”

Ah.

Is that it?

This bastard thinks that one of the gods secretly gave me an unknown power.

There are quite a few gods in this world, so it wouldn’t be strange for them to be at odds with each other. From what he’s saying, he seems to be assuming that another god is plotting something.

If that’s the misunderstanding, I’m grateful.

“Hehehe, you little shit. You’re dumber than I thought?”
“Kkihit! What do you mean!”
“Mahrun, was it? Who do you think gave me power? Huh?”
“That’s…! Unless you reveal it, I wouldn’t know! Of course! That’s the end of it now! The person has already found out everything that happened to me!”
“Then it’ll be easy to figure out my identity!”
“Kkihihit! Of course! It’s no use regretting it! It’s already happened! You should have hidden that power more!”
“But hey, you little shit.”

This bastard is too stupid.

“If it was a power that could be detected, would they have given it to me?”
“Kkihit…?!”
“It’s someone who did something like this. Do you think they would have been so careless? Do you think it would be detected?”
“That’s…!”

The Clown closed his mouth, seemingly speechless.

“Kkihihihit! Amazing, you! You’re smart after all!”
“I just feel like shit when you say that, you bastard.”
“Anyway! I’ve seen your great power! But if you wield such bestowed power recklessly, something bad will happen! I’m giving you sincere advice!”

The Clown rambled on, as if he thought it was over. I realized something as I was beating him up. This bastard can probably switch bodies.

In other words, his body is both the main body and not the main body.

When he senses danger, he evacuates his `essence` elsewhere. I could feel a slight energy earlier, so I know. These bastards are definitely experts when it comes to dimensions.

Well, of course, I could destroy it now, but it’s a bit of a waste to just kill a guy who’s misunderstanding like this.

I’ve also grown attached to his laughter after listening to it for so long.

“Well then! It’s time to lower the curtain!”

—Kkihihihihit!

At the same time, the space completely collapsed.

—Hwareureuk.

I was in the town square.

“Hehehe, these bastards.”

There are multiple gods.

And I found out that they’re at odds with each other.

Then, if I can somehow sweet-talk one of those bastards, can’t I find out about the others?

I happily headed back to the inn.

* * *

And not long after, some angel-like woman appeared in front of me.

“Your power. Who gave it to you?”

—Cheoeok.

She even had a sword pointed at me.
Looks like an angel of the sword.

“Who do you think?”
“I’m asking, human. Don’t be insolent and speak.”

—Hwareureuk!

She was even emitting a fierce light from her eyes.

“Then I’ll answer you. So listen carefully. Here. Lend me your ear.”
“My ear?”

The moment I coaxed her by saying I would tell her in a whisper, the angel of the sword offered me her ear. So carelessly.

“Your mom.”
