Chapter 7 Smoke: (part 3)

The man with that seems to be born with a glare. Glared at Ritsuka as he said that, but mostly in shock.'How could this boy be able to control two constellation-level familiars?'

[The constellation 'Demon-like Judge of Fire' is delighted upon the incarnation 'Yoo Jonghyuk's' awakening!]

[The constellation 'Most Ancient Liberator' is telling the constellation 'Demon-like Judge of Fire' to calm down!]

[The constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is getting annoyed by the two!]

Ritsuka stepped back a little because of being intimidated by the glare of the man, Yi Sun-Shin, who then put his hand in front of Ritsuka as if to protect him from harm.

"Jonghyuk-ah, they're our guests!"

Kim Dokja said that as he hit him on the back of his head, there was a clear smirk on Kim Dokja's face as he did that.

"I'll kill you Kim Dokja."

The man named Yoo Jonghyuk stood up but was not steady and almost fell over, but Han Sooyoung caught him and make him sit on the bed.

"What happened with the [Outer God Kings]?"

"They never appeared."

"Kim Dokja, is this a part of your plan?"

Everyone in the room subconsciously looked at Kim Dokja. Kim Dokja shook his head. Then Yoo Jonghyuk turned his head to Ritsuka's group and then asked.

"Who're they?"

Albeit already knowing who they are, he still asked the question. Mash and Ritsuka answered the question, but the handsome man didn't even listen to them, making Ritsuka a little irritated.

Kim Dokja then gestured to Han Sooyoung and then she shouted.

"Okay, okay, everyone leave. The lovers need some alone time!"

[The constellation 'Demon-like Judge of Fire' nods ferociously in agreement]

"EH?"

Han Sooyoung ushered everyone out, as she also went out. Then Alcides sighed and looked at Ritsuka.

"Master, I'll go out for a while. Call for me if there's any trouble."

He disappeared into thin air as Alcides went into his spiritual form. Lee Gilyoung and Shin Yoosung went like 'O' as they saw that happen and asked Yi Sun-Shin if he could do that as well, and Mash then raised her hand.

"Ummm, who exactly is this Yoo Jonghyuk?"

"Heh."

Han Sooyoung spotted the moment and then said.

"Yoo Jonghyuk is the demon king we keep captive. If he were to be released to the world, he'll destroy everything!"

"No, he isn't and you know that."

Yoo Sangah retorted, and Han Sooyoung saw the unimpressed looks of Ritsuka and Mash. Han Sooyoung coughed, clearing her throat, and blamed her sponsor for her previous behavior. The rest explained it to them, although most of them said that Kim Dokja probably knows him the most.

***

Alcides was hunting some monsters, and in the distance saw a shooting star, 'Wait that ain't a shooting star' he thought, 'That's a person!' as the falling person almost reached earth, Alcides caught it but, he impeded the momentum but in the process taking damage as well though not that serious.

He caught what seems to be like an angel, a fallen angel maybe? Although its wings were broken beyond recognition, her face was still exquisite as she rests in the boy's arms.

"I must report this to master."

Alcides began running back to HQ but noticed that the woman was waking up slightly. He could feel her moving a bit.

[[Fuck, let go of me!]]

A sudden burst of magical energy pushed Alcides back, making him drop the woman. The woman then emits heat that melts everything in a 30-meter radius. Alcides noticed something happened that he didn't know he was capable of.

[The story 'It was hot so I shoot the sun' has begun it story telling]

He summoned his bow, and a lion's pelt was draped over his head making him at least resist some attacks, and the woman raised her hand in the sky, and what seemed to be the sun appeared above her head, and a handle of a sword appeared, she pulled it out revealing a beautiful sword, but the temperature began rising at incredible speeds.

[The story 'Nemean Lion's pelt' has begun its storytelling]

they glared at each other, Alcides holding his bow as he aimed it towards the woman, while the latter was pointing her sword at Alcides.

[[Get the fuck out of my way, dammit. I don't have time to mess around with you, you little shit. I need to see 'Secretive plotter'!]]

'Secretive plotter. Who the hell is that?' Alcides murmured to himself silently, while still monitoring the woman.

[[Fine, you won't move out of the way, then die!]]

A fight then erupted.

***

The building shook as the fight started. Han Sooyoung looked out of the window and noticed a bright light. Kim Dokja went out of the room together with Yoo Jonghyuk, who was now donning a black trench coat matching together with Kim Dokja's white coat.

[The constellations are in shock to see who has appeared]

They looked at each other and began rushing there. The admiral carried Ritsuka while being followed by Mash as they go to the sight of the battle.

Getting closer was almost impossible, as the heat could immediately melt off their skins, but thanks to Mash, she blocked most of the heat using her shield. One could see Alcides fighting against Uriel, wait Uriel!

"Alcides, wait, she's an ally!"

Alcides got distracted for a moment looking at Ritsuka. 'an ally?' he thought, and then *Swoosh* the body of Alcides was slashed across his chest, burning him and his heart.

[[Where is the secretive plotter? No, where is Yoo Jonghyuk?]]

She then turned to see Yoo Jonghyuk, who charged at her at full speed. As their blades clashed, it made a deafening roar. The stars above the sky also shone. And multiple constellations in which Kim Dokja had helped, went down to help them once more, they remembered the plan Kim Dokja gave them it required all of them just to suppress one of the [Outer God Kings], but with the help of Yoo Jonghyuk, everything will be easy they hope.

[[Secretive plotter, I know you have heard that the apocalypse dragon has revived]]

Yoo Jonghyuk remained impartial as he swung his sword, leaving no opportunity for the [Outer God King] Uriel the other constellations cornered her. Kim Dokja was worried. If she was here, then how about the others?

He looked at Han Sooyoung, who also had the realization, and then shouted at Yoo Jonghyuk.

"You stupid sunfish. She isn't the enemy!"

[What? this ■ isn't the enemy?]

The ally Uriel stopped attacking and backed off, but then a surge of magical energy appeared behind them. It was Alcides, as he was resurrected from death.

[The skill 'God Hand' has been activated]

[You have used 1 out of 12 lives]

[11 lives remaining]

He aimed his bow towards the two Uriels.

[[At least someone here is smart]]

The fighting ceased and Ritsuka went over to Alcides. They couldn't do anything because of the heat. Even the admiral's arrows were burned, down turning to ashes mid-flight even though they were laced with magic power, but there were some arrows sticking out of Uriel's body, those were from Alcides who laced his weapon with divine energy.

"Alcides, stop!"

"Master, this is just self-defense. She attacked me first."

The [Outer God King] glared at Alcides and everyone noticed the state she was in. Kim Dokja went up and asked.

"Why are you here?"

[[I will warn you, even your people might not handle this, the rest of the [Outer God Kings] has been captured]]

Everyone was shocked, if Ritsuka's and Mash's estimation was correct they were as strong as the sin of humanity the beasts, they also heard from Kim Dokja that there were 4 of them, and being able to capture 3 of them is quite a feat.

Uriel looked so sullen, and she gulped before saying to the group that she was a proud archangel, but she couldn't believe what she'll ask of her enemies, especially the secretive plotter.

[[Please, I need your help]]
