Chereads / Record of Time / Chapter 13 - Chapter 12

Chapter 13 - Chapter 12

The Dokkaebi floated in air as he observed us one by one

"Hmm, trash, trash, mediocre, trash, mediocre--" Just as he was saying the skills of each one of us he suddenly froze and floated infront of Choi Kwan!

"Ooh, your skills aren't bad, Hmm" He then looked at Jeong Ji-ho and said "It's the same for you but weaker"

Hearing this Jeong Ji-ho growled

No! This psycho dokkaebi do you want to get killed by Jeong Ji-ho? He's the future villain who can kill even the gods! He's comparable to Choi Kwan!

Buuuuut…what he said is actually true though -_-

Suddenly the Dokkaebi noticed me and smiled strangely at me as he said "And it seems that there is another interesting person here"

Suddenly I broke out in cold sweat, did he noticed that I'm not the real Kim Han-wool?

Fortunately he didn't came over to me and just floated in air as he announced "Well then, I shall let the humans do whatever they can to attract the attention of our dear constellations" as he said that he just laid down mid air lazily while he shut his eyes closed

Just as everyone was confused the screens appeared once again

['Ares' What are they doing just standing around like an idiot?]

['Zhuge Liang' I knew I shouldn't have come here there is nothing interesting to see here]

Suddenly getting the clue everyone dispersed and Choi Kwan patted my shoulder as he said "How about we spar--" before he could even finish his words I decisively cut him off and said "Sorry but I have no plan on attarcting their attention"

Hearing this Choi Kwan and Jeong Ji-ho were surprised

Geum Beok-seo and Lee Mi-Nyeo already started fighting by the way

Choi Kwan asked "Why?"

I smiled nonchalantly and said as I shrugged my shoulders "Trust me, I have a plan"

Choi Kwan was hesitant but sighed and left as he and Jeong Ji-ho sparred instead

As everyone was sparring and showing off their skills I walked towards a corner and laid down and closed my eyes and sleep

Kwak Ye-Eun who noticed me were confused but was distracted by his spar mate and so forgot about me

Unbeknownst to me the dokkaebi who was supposed to be asleep opened his eyes and looked at me with an amused smile as he muttered "I wonder what this human is thinking"

['Yi Sun-Shin' What is this kid doing? Why won't he fight?]

['Mahatma Gandhi' Maybe it's another way to attract our attention?]

['Aether' Well whatever he's doing it is working on me alright]

Time passed by quickly and before we knew it time was up and the selection was about to begin

The Dokkaebi clapped his hands and said "Alright alright, the selection will begin now and end in 10 minutes, so choose wisely everyone!"

"Remember, once you choose a constellation you can't change it anymore"

As the Dokkaebi announced this blue screens started appearing before everyone with the options of the Constellation that chose them

Suddenly everyone's attention was on Choi kwan and Jeong Ji-ho who got ten constellations to choose from

I smiled and looked at my options but was surprised to find there are three options!

I thought that I would have no constellation picking me but I guess my intuition was wrong

Well whatever, I won't be picking a constellation anyway so--

Just as I read the names of the constellation the smile on my face froze

[Constellations:

--Aether

--Hypnos

--Cronus]

Why is Cronus here?!

Although Cronus was infamous for being evil and tried to eat his own son Zues and his siblings he is still a high level constellation known as the Mythical God!

I know that he never appeared in the selection before in the original novel, so why now--

Unless, he knows about my ability!

Suddenly I got goosebumps and just in time a notification suddenly came from my head

[The constellation 'Cronus' would like to speak to you]

[Would you like to accept their invitation?]

[Yes/No]

Pondering I first looked around to see if anyone's attention was on me and seeing that there is not I sighed in relief and finally I said in a low voice "Yes"

[--Ding!]

['Kim Han-wool' can now speak to the constellation 'Cronus' indirectly]

[--Ding!]

[There is a message from the constellation 'Cronus']

[Would 'Kim Han-wool' accept it?]

[Yes/No]

Hearing this I was silent for a moment before I said "Yes"

{Cronus: I know about your ability}

Hearing this I shuddered greatly that my eyes shook

So he does know! No wonder why he chose me instead of Choi Kwan or Jeong Ji-ho!

Cronus who is also known as the god of time is now asking me if I will choose him as my constellation!

What should I do?!
