Chapter 2193 – [What Happens When a Constellation Is the Great Demon King]
I met and talked with representatives of several countries before the General Assembly… And the UN General Assembly was held in earnest. Representatives from each country were seated, and since I had a position and was the subject of the meeting, I sat in the most comfortable position.
When it comes to the UN General Assembly, there are procedures of their own, but they are omitted and get straight to the point. No, if you follow the procedures, a meeting that should last several days ends up lasting a whole week.
“First, I would like to thank all the representatives of the countries of the Earth who have gathered here. It is said that he is the worst, one of the three Great Demon Lords who judged the Constellation Tower this time. The reason I am here today is the change in social situation due to the closure of the Constellation Tower. This is to prepare for and discuss.”
I don’t know about the representatives of the countries I’ve met, but people meeting me here for the first time showed a lot of interest and caution. On the other hand, there is fear and horror at the base.
Honestly, if you don’t have those feelings, it won’t work. Anyway, I will continue the story right away.
“First, I plan to completely dismantle the Constellation Tower. The waste that the Constellations have spread on this Earth has left a negative impact on the Earth, and in order to fix it, the Constellation Tower must be destroyed. The Constellations Tower has already been modified to their own liking. It is difficult to recycle, so it is better to start anew.”
The only thing you can gain from the Constellation Tower is the remaining resources and the system. Other functions are, at best, just by-products of thinking about how to make humans suffer more.
So, that definitely shouldn’t exist. Only then can you become an example.
“Of course, I am well aware that this will cause various problems for the existing social class of climbers. Therefore, I would like to introduce a new facility called the Labyrinth Trial. I would like to ask you a few questions regarding this. Do you have any?”
And most people raised their hands and expressed their intention to ask questions. Even those who didn’t raise their hands seem to know the basics, so they seem to want to listen to other people ask questions and then do it later.
Anyway, I got questions from people. When I selected a man who seemed to be a representative of the French side and asked him questions, he asked for a detailed explanation about the Labyrinth Trial.
“The facility to be introduced is called the Labyrinth Trial, but I’m curious what exactly it is and how it differs from the Constellation Tower.”
“Oh, I have prepared a separate PPT for that, so please take a look at it.”
The prepared PPT was created by Horizon in one night. If AI technology develops extremely well, this will become easy.
Through the PPT I prepared, I gave a simple overview and explained the differences between the Constellation Tower and Labyrinth Trials and their pros and cons. If I were to broadly categorize it, it would be like this.
Labyrinth Trial Advantage: Humans can take the lead. The power I have accumulated cannot be taken away. Anyone can be a challenger. Even if you die, you will be resurrected with resuscitation insurance. Ability to train people with various abilities, etc.
Everyone started whispering and talking. Some things were expected, but some of the advantages were better than those of the Constellation Tower, so I reacted to them and asked questions enthusiastically.
“Resuscitation insurance? Resurrection? What does that mean? Are you saying that resurrection is possible even if you die in that facility?”
“Training people with supernatural abilities?! It looks like there isn’t just one type. What kind of people have supernatural abilities…”
Since it was a question that all had to be answered, I slowly explained everything one by one. First, let’s start with issues related to people with special abilities.
The abilities that can be obtained through the labyrinth trial include martial arts, magic, spirit abilities, psychic abilities, and supernatural abilities. Of course, spiritual and supernatural abilities cannot be learned simply because they are born with individual qualities. However, even on this Earth where people do not have these abilities, there will be people with these qualities, so we can have them learn them.
From what I see, in the case of superpowers, a bit of the function of a superpower learning device is used to awaken superpowers in qualified people. After that, you can develop it yourself.
“Isn’t there a separate job or job?”
“There is no such thing as a constellation in the first place, so how can an apostle exist? This facility is not a facility whose purpose is to receive support from the constellation, but rather a learning facility for humans to strengthen themselves and become beings like the constellation. You have to be really, really lucky, but if you do well, even a being like me can exist. It could come out.”
“Oh…!!!!”
I’m just admiring it because I don’t know anything about dimensional civilization, but it’s just lip service. To be honest, even with the labyrinth trial, it’s really hard to find a Lord-level transcendentalist.
And the issue of resuscitation insurance that people care about the most. However, since this was the subject of much discussion and Eve, there were doubts about whether the Constellation was interfering. Besides, didn’t the people here hear that the Constellations are ruining civilization because we were exposed?
“Just like the constellations that had the power to resurrect the dead, resuscitation insurance also has the power to resurrect the dead. The subject is God, my daughter called Eve.”
“Yes?”
“If you push out the existing constellation and bring in a new constellation, your intentions will inevitably be quite suspicious!!!”
“Eve is busy with work on our Earth, so she won’t have to worry about this Earth. It will be difficult to interfere. In fact, Eve is the main agent. The actual operation will be a labyrinth trial, and the labyrinth trial will reflect your opinions and operate the facility. If a problem arises in the future, you can cancel or cancel your life insurance policy at any time.”
“Hmm…”
They have freedom. You can choose whether to become a challenger or not, and whether you live or die. It’s a much better environment than when you’re a constellation’s plaything.
We do not raise rescued animals for no reason or return them to nature after treatment. Freedom comes with risks, but sometimes there are things you can gain by being free.
“Oh, of course, there is no penalty. There may be crazy people who clear the labyrinth by dying and resurrecting and repeating, so when you resurrect, you will be banned from entering the labyrinth for a certain period of time. Also, to prevent abuse, you will be restricted to only a certain radius of the labyrinth facility. I plan to have two.”
“Huh?! Do we need such restrictions?”
“Otherwise, there may be people who only register as challengers but do not climb the labyrinth and try to use the resuscitation insurance. That is a benefit given to those who take risks and overcome ordeals, and is not given to be abused.”〈 Br〉
Representatives of countries who had been tempted to exploit the situation frowned. I wonder how strange it is that people all live in the same place, but it’s the same Earth.
Anyway, since we talked about the advantages of the Labyrinth Trial, we also had to talk about the disadvantages. In order to avoid criticism later, I had to clearly explain the shortcomings.
“However, unlike the Constellation Tower, the Labyrinth Trial has several disadvantages. First, there are no potions at the beginning, so the means of recovery are limited.”
“Doesn’t say it’s limited mean it’s still there?”
“Yes, among the abilities you can choose from, if you choose the spirit of water, you can use the essence of water. Depending on the user’s level, there are differences, starting from a simple disinfectant to making limbs grow. I don’t know over time, but at least Initially, the level of recovery ability will decrease.”
“Medical sites that previously used potions to treat patients will need to stockpile potions.”
“Please tell the Tiara Guild about that. I will use the remaining resources of the Constellation Tower to deliver it to you so that you can stock up on items such as potions.”
When a pre-existing problem arises or a sudden emergency patient arises, potions are sometimes used to recover. Even if you are not a climber, the potion works. If the potion suddenly disappears in such a situation, the damage will be quite significant.
So, I need to set aside potions for a while and train myself to become a water elementalist. I think the policies of each country are important.
Next comes the most important issue. Since this is the biggest difference between the Constellation Tower and Labyrinth Trials, it should be mentioned more clearly than other issues.
“One more thing. There is no status window from the game system in the labyrinth trial. Therefore, the convenience for challengers climbing the labyrinth will be greatly reduced.”
“Yes?”
“No, wouldn’t that mean growth potential would decline, and visible information would disappear? Is there a plan in place for that?”
“There is nothing like that. We are not planning to introduce status or game systems at all.”
“Status is necessary!!!! Only then can’t you more easily and quickly select targets with the desired stats!!!!”
“Yes, there are also conveniences such as being able to filter out low-level people in advance!!!!”
Are these guys representing the country? Oh, the people talking are representatives of countries with large populations like China and leader, so they have to choose people from among them.
To put it mildly here, it seemed like they wouldn’t listen. To be honest, there are not many people who deliberately choose to leave behind what is comfortable and go back to take care of their health.
But I am a doctor. He wasn’t just a doctor, he was the kind of doctor who would just euthanize someone if they made a bad choice. Therefore, it is possible to threaten a patient with his or her life.
“You say that status is important… Then, if the stats shown by the Constellation Tower are so important, why not look after those whose stats are lower than mine?”
“Yes…?”
“I’m sure you said that one of the reasons I mentioned when judging was judging human value by numbers. If the status is that good, then of course it would be better to exterminate all the humans with worse stats than me, the Great Demon King. Oh, of course, that’s the range. It will be all the people of Earth.”
“…”
In fact, there may be a few people who will survive based on intelligence or wisdom stats, but in the end, the destruction of humanity was inevitable. I tried to find someone smarter than me, but they are transcendent in their own way, so there is a line, but I wonder how long it will take to survive. In the end, I will die from genetic problems.
Anyway, the people in China and leader seemed to have heard the threat and kept quiet. A person’s value lies in their character, not in their abilities. Even if you have good abilities, if your character is poor, there is no place for you to be useful. However, even if you do not have abilities, if your character is good, you can find a place where you can be useful.
“If you judge value by numbers, think that you too will be judged by those numbers. If you say that to someone whose stat digits change as if they used a cheat, it is different from saying ‘I’m an asshole with low stats, so you can go after me!!!!’ There is no bar.”
“Yes, yes…”
“Behave well. Ah, especially China. Even if it’s like that in leader, I’m glad that it’s quiet here in China. China on our side was so bullshit that they split it up and started a war, turning it into the 16 kingdoms. And that happened twice.”
“Yes?”
“You don’t need to know it in depth. If you’re wrong, you could kill half of humanity, so just know that.”
Fortunately, China is quiet. No, it was noisy regarding the stats, but I guess I’m glad it ended like that.
If I wanted to be honest, I could name all the countries that attended. Even this side of Korea was not much different from Korea before the meteorite disaster, so there was a lot more to cover.
But you have to give it a chance. That opportunity was lost because of the constellations, so we had to give them another chance to turn it around after they attacked. Oh, of course, if you don’t fix it later, you’ll come back and suffer.
For now, the basic meeting was roughly concluded. I still have to attend meetings for the next two or three days as there are still some details left to work out, but I have overcome a major hurdle.
[It is said that the Great Demon King of Domination had a hard time.]
“No, don’t use the top system, just talk.”
[Is it because it’s comfortable?]
“As a constellation, I also used that, so it feels a bit like a naivety, but then I feel like I’m hearing a story from a constellation.”
[Anyway, you worked hard!!!! Oh, I’m taking all the resources left in the Constellation Tower and turning them into resources. Well, if we collect the power from the climbers later, we’ll have some left over, but what should we do with that?]
“Let’s make it into an island later. Something like a big island that can navigate the Earth’s seas.”
[Oh, that wouldn’t be bad.]
The remaining power can be used to prepare for the aftermath of the dismantlement of the Constellation Tower, and the power collected from climbers in the future can be used by creating an island and using it as if it were a trial of our labyrinth off the coast of Incheon. Oh, of course, unlike the labyrinth trial we created under our leadership, the second branch we will create here will have to be used while moving around.
I’d like to tell you some spatial skills just in case. Then it will be easier to come and go… Oh, of course, if you misuse it, you will be in big trouble, so you have to pay attention to safety issues.
[Oh, that’s right. And while you were working, I got a call from Gaia on this Earth.]
“It’s so fucking late. What do you say?”
[I guess the Constellations persuaded the outside world by touting the progress and growth of humanity. So Gaia also allowed it. It is said that the inside of the Constellation Tower cannot be seen because Gaia’s power does not reach, so the situation was not properly understood.]
“How will we be treated in the future?”
[He said he would cooperate with the matter we are working on. So, I decided to get permission to access Gaia records.]
“Good job. I will do well when I use it for the labyrinth trial later.”
Reading Gaia Records does not simply mean that you can incorporate a specific environment or situation into the labyrinth. It was said that big data containing numerous calculation results could be viewed.
Since it was possible to use it, the second branch of Labyrinth Trial was finally able to stand on the same lines as the first branch. At least this Gaia knows how to repay the favor, so I think it’s okay.
[No, three demon kings came and judged me, and I barely survived. If I don’t do it, I don’t care.]
“That’s true. But everything’s okay there, right?”
[Ah, now that I think about it, the guy who was an apostle was looking for you.]
“Yunho? Uh, can you talk for a moment?”
[ㅇㅇ, wait a moment.]
Perhaps because I used the constellation tower system, I was able to talk to Yunho right away. It is not one-way communication between the constellations, but simply two-way communication between each other.
-Ah!!! Constellation!!!!!
“It’s not a constellation in the first place.”
-Ah… I got used to that. I think it will take some time to fix it.
“But what’s going on? What’s going on?”
-No, it’s nothing else, it’s because I’ve been getting a lot of requests to appear on broadcasts or report on things. I think I’m not doing this simply as an apostle, but because I’m interested in the Holy See.
“Hmm.”
When I was making announcements, the constellations revealed that I was [Lord of Winter]. So, it is natural that interest is focused on Yunho, the only apostle of [The Lord of Winter].
The future situation and other things… It’s not that Yunho knows that, but at least he doesn’t lose anything by having him appear. That’s why I’m asking you to appear.
-What should I do?
In response to Yunho’s question, I thought about what to do and thought that he would enjoy appearing on the show and regain his self-esteem, so I decided to appear with him. In any case, we had to announce the issues and various problems that would arise after the closure of the Constellation Tower.
Similar to how we announce through in-room broadcasts, here we simply announce through broadcasts. He announced his intention to appear in it.
“Then I will appear together, so please accept it separately.”
-Okay… Wait a minute. Constellation too?!?!?!
“Instead, they told me to be careful because if I ask a question that crosses the line, it will cause a broadcast accident.”
-Haha, the joke is still the same.
“…”
-You’re kidding, right?!?!
If the broadcasting station does well, it will end up as a joke.
Otherwise, it can’t be helped.
