Swindler Couple?

At that time.
The state of the starry sky was a mess.
The sky, which had been sparkling beautifully with stars, was cracked and was dropping pale white fragments, and in between, a black human hand came in and created a black brick of the same color, filling the gap.
It wasn’t the Administrator who was filling it.
It was the vassals of the Tilted Nebula, who were trying to dominate the starry sky, playing a game of territory, so to speak.
A crumbling starry sky, and sticky black bricks filling the gaps.
The Administrator was watching it.

[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to…]
The countless incoming messages from the Constellations were noisy.
The Administrator opened one of them and read it.
Gloom flickered in his amethyst eyes.

[Administrator! What on earth are you doing? The Blooming Spring Flower is dead! He died at the hands of that crow! In this situation, why are you not abandoning this planet? Even if a top-tier Constellation remains in the lower world, now that a high-ranking Constellation has died, the void in the starry sky is clear…]
Beep.
The loud voice of a certain Constellation faded.
The Administrator, who had ended the voice message, ran his hand through his hair in annoyance, rested his chin on his hand, and muttered.

“I really didn’t expect this…”
No, who could have expected it?
The event of a Constellation becoming ‘that’ was truly an unprecedented event.
Even if a weak low-rank Constellation had become ‘that’, it would have been impossible to ignore, and yet, it was a high-ranking Constellation.
Even if that Constellation was one that caused a lot of trouble and had a foul temper.
As a result, the starry sky suffered a great blow.
For the Administrator, who was planning to quickly have a top-tier Constellation ascend, a void of two high-ranking Constellations had suddenly appeared.
Thanks to that, it was a mess from the mid-high-rank to the lowest-rank.
So much so that even the Constellations who would usually not send a message to the Administrator, and even those who would pass by as if looking at a stone, were all sending voice messages at once.

“They only look for me at times like this…”
They would usually curse at the Administrator for being stingy with his management, and then, when a big problem arose, they would come and pester him.
It was annoying, but it couldn’t be helped.
Because that was the reason for the Administrator’s existence.
The high-nosed top-tier Constellations were quiet even in this situation.
When he glanced down at the lower world, he could see the Silent Calamity making contact with the Tilted Nebula.
Although he couldn’t know what kind of conversation was going on because he had blocked the Tilted Nebula from eavesdropping on the conversation… it was certain that no good content was being exchanged.

[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to the Administrator.]
[Requesting a message to…]
Even now, messages were still coming in without a break.
The Administrator sighed deeply and eventually opened the Azure Sky of the Starry Heavens.

“My friends, listen.”
“I will open the planetary nebula…”
“Come if you want to live.”
The planetary nebula is a kind of evacuation space.
It was also commonly called a ’emergency nebula’.
Of course, although it was called an evacuation space, it was being used as a kind of warehouse.
Because there had never been a crisis of this magnitude before.
The Administrator just said that and immediately closed the Azure Sky.
With a single step, he arrived at a space like a fog, a mixture of red and blue.
Crack…
A gate opened with the sound of something breaking.
The entrance gate was creaking because it hadn’t been used for so long.
The Constellations arrived one after another.
However, their appearance was not like before.
“Aaaargh…”
“I need starlight, starlight…”
“Get a grip!”
“Who didn’t bring the lowest-rank Constellations?!”
“They’re already at the level of starlight! I brought them in a glass bottle, so they should be fine, right?”
“In this situation, who cares about a Constellation’s human rights!”
The mid-high-rank Constellations with their bodies broken and cracked, the low-rank Constellations who had become zombies and were craving strong starlight.
And even the lowest-rank Constellations, who had already melted and become star sand, leaving only the core parts of a Constellation.
It was a complete mess.
Just the disappearance of two high-ranking Constellations was having a very negative trickle-down effect.
“Administrator!”
A woman with golden hair ran over.
The Administrator looked at that Constellation with indifferent eyes.
Wavy golden hair, snow-white skin, clear rubellite eyes.
The mythological being who had obtained the name Aphrodite and had newly become a Constellation on Earth boldly spoke to the Administrator.
“What happened? We need to escape quickly! Why aren’t we leaving when ‘they’ are here?”
“R-right! We can just gather the coins and contractors again later!”
“Ugh, I really liked this contractor…”
“Leave quickly! Quickly!”
The Constellations who were still intact were clamoring.
Leaving the world is the sole right of the Administrator.
If the Administrator does not decide to leave, no one can leave this world.
And the Administrator, apart from his personal feelings, had a reason why he could not leave this place.

“It’s impossible.”
“Why? Don’t you see that the lowest-rank Constellations have become star sand?”

“I understand your guts to leave a top-tier Constellation behind.”
In an instant, the surroundings became quiet.
The only ones who had been silent from the beginning were some of the Constellations who were in Korea, and the Constellations who had welcomed the Silent Calamity in LA.
The rest of the Constellations were those who were scattered all over the world.
Meaning, they knew that a top-tier Constellation called the ‘Silent Calamity’ had appeared, but they didn’t know that she was bound to the lower world in a human form.
The Administrator briefly explained that.
“What kind of nonsense is that!”
“A top-tier Constellation is still in the lower world? So we can’t go?”
“It doesn’t matter! We need to escape quickly!”

“…”
The Administrator’s head ached because of the mid-to-low-rank Constellations who still couldn’t grasp the situation.
He had kept these guys because they were Constellations in their own right, but he felt like he was getting dumber.

“You Constellations who are holding star dust, why do you think your friends have become like that?”
“Because two high-ranking Constellations are gone!”
As the Administrator spoke, pressing his temples, Aphrodite answered boldly.
She even crossed her arms proudly, as if to say, ‘What’s the problem?’.

“Yes. Because two high-ranking Constellations are gone. Because of that, our lowest-rank friends have become star sand, and the low-rank Constellations have become star-gazers.”
“So quickly…!”

“And you want to lose another top-tier Constellation here?”
In an instant, an unbearable anger leaked out from the Administrator.

“My friend, are you in your right mind?”
If the system leaves this world, the connection with the Silent Calamity will naturally be severed.
It would be no different from death.
A top-tier Constellation is a being that cannot be compared to a high-ranking Constellation.
Even if you gather a dozen high-ranking Constellations, they can’t even touch the feet of a top-tier Constellation.
And now, in this chaotic situation, if they were to kill such a great being and run away…
Even the mid-to-high-rank Constellations would all become star sand and roll around in the emergency nebula.
The high-ranking Constellations would also become star-gazers and act like zombies.
That’s what it means to abandon a top-tier Constellation.
“…”
The Constellations, who had understood everything, became quiet.
Even if they acted dignified by sending system messages, in the end, these guys were also thinking and speaking intelligent beings.
They could be stupid and foolish at times.
In any case, they now had to make a quick decision.
In the meantime, a girl shining in pink raised her hand.
It was the Constellation, ‘The Seventeenth Love’.
Although she was a low-rank Constellation, since she often lent her name when the Administrator played pranks, the dazed-looking girl Constellation had no tension even in the cold situation.
“What… should we do?”
Even as her body was breaking and her mind was fading, The Seventeenth Love said.
It was a rather satisfactory answer for the Administrator.

The Tilted Nebula was an annoying existence.
After saying some incomprehensible things, he laughed and then disappeared.
A sticky afterimage remained in the empty air where he had waved his arm.
I made a quick judgment.
‘Can I do something about that right now?’
No.
It’s impossible to defeat the Tilted Nebula with my own strength.
‘Is there anything I can do?’
What I can do outside is extremely limited.
Especially if The Crow’s Ruins has become ‘that’, it’s impossible to leave the jewel crow sacred artifact and go to the other contractors at this point.
And most of all, the Regressor is in that sacred artifact.
A person who would be more experienced in this situation than anyone else.
‘For now, I have to focus on the sacred artifact.’
And bring out Yeon Taeseon as quickly as possible.
I turned my Sun’s Eye and tried to send it into the sacred artifact again.
It was then.

“Calamity.”
“The swindler couple was fun last time, right?”
The Administrator’s voice echoed in my head.
