"I thought no one knew me..."
Lee Donghyun smiled and blushed. He must be very happy that someone recognizes him.
"Well then, let."
"Yes!"
It seems I have made him believe in me. Now, just have to wait for Haechi and see what he does next.
[A few constellation impressed with your performance.]
[The constellation have sponsored you 200 gold.]
Is it because of the constellation, our life is like this? I can't blame them. Maybe this is indeed destined. It seems my life depends on the constellations. I have to draw the attention of the constellations to survive but I also have to protect my friends. It seems that my life will not be easy.
I came to haechi and asked, "What are you going to do with us?"
[A lot of interesting things happend today. The guy in the next cabin was also a total nutcase.]
Hm, In the next cabin? Does he mean that cabin 2707 behind us? I have a bad feeling about this.
[Well, I didn't have any expectations for this cabin, but you all survived the first scenario. You have proven that even bugs deserve to survive.] The Haechi chuckled.
His words made us realize our position. We're nothing but grasshoppers to him.
[Surely, every hardship you face deserves its reward. Now, reward for the first scenario is qualified to be sponsored by the great constellation. How about it? Aren't you looking forward to it?]
I am confused including everything everyone in this cabin. Well, I a bit surprise, manhwa what I always read will come true. I know 'constellation', but what does 'sponsorship' mean?
[Hmm, everyone seems confused especially about 'sponsorship'. I give you a special service once again. The sponsorship of the constellations is important.]
What a short explanation. I immediately say, "so what you basically mean is 'sponsorship' is one of the key to become highest?"
[If that mean to you, it's a true then.]
"So we need to choose the constellation, right?" An Aera said.
[Gosh, you really are hopeless. There is no point in explaining it all again. Why don't you just experience it yourselves?]
Haechi snapped his finger and a message screen appeared.
"Four strange choices suddenly appeared in front of me..." An Aera said.
"I have two choices here." Lee Donghyun said.
Everyone has a choice. What about Han Ara?
"I have five choice here." Han Ara said.
That's a lot. Before only one was interested, now there are five constellations that are interesting to her. He is really special.
"Do it comfortably everyone. Think of it as a test."
Everyone nod.
Everyone fell silent. They see the options in front of them. I also had my own choices to look at.
[Sponsor Selection]
-Please choose your sponsor and your sponsor will be your strong supporter.
1. Winged Daemon of death
2. Goddesses Lady of Valkyries and Magic
3. Falcon Bird of Sky Ruler
4. Clandestine Eternal
There were four choices like a riddle. I'm the same as An Aera, have four choices. Usually in the manhwa I read, the constellations never reveal their true names. Fuhh... It's puzzle time.
Let's see.
First, the 'Winged Daemon of death.' looks like this constellation involved with the power of death. Winged Means Angel or wing. Daemon... According to my memory, in Greek mythology it means demon. He is have wings and death... Is it Thanatos? That's possible, because Thanatos has black wings and he is related to death.
I'll just put him on hold for now.
The second one, the Goddesses Lady of Valkyries and Magic. I immediately know who is this. She is Freyja. Freyja is involved with the Valkyries and magic. This option is quite good. If I recalled corrected, Freyja is a Goddess of Magic from Norse mythology. Freyja is a famous goddess because of her name. People usually call Freya as a Freyja.
This is pretty good choice, but this was pending. There are two more constellations that I haven't explore yet.
The third, Falcon Bird of Sky Ruler. I know someone involved with Falcon Bird. Uhh, he is from Egyptian mythology... Ah! It is Horus. He is the ancient Egyptian deities who served many functions and one of that he is ruled the sky.
Horus isn't a bad choice. Constellation of absolute good are powerful, but they impose strict restrictions on the ones they sponsor.
Finally, Clandestine Eternal. Hmm... I don't know who this constellation. No matter what I think, i don't know who is this. 'Clandestine' means secret and 'Eternal' means lasting forever.
I don't know who is they are. Someone always said the mysteries one is the most best. This is hard to choose. Thanatos is good but Freyja is powerful, Horus is good too and this 'Clandestine Eternal' is mystery maybe this constellation is powerful too...
[There is one minute left to complete the Sponsor Selection.]
Time has running out. Looks like I don't have other choice but to do this option. Everyone seems panic. I wonder what they options?
[Sponsor Selection has ended.]
The message floating in the air.
[Some constellation are greatly affected by your choice.]
[The constellation 'Winged Daemon of death' is admire at your choice.]
[The constellation Winged Daemon of death say he will support you even if you don't choose him.]
Wow, that's quite surprising. I thought he would hate me but apparently he will support me. A good constellation indeed.
[The constellation 'Goddesses Lady of Valkyries and Magic' is disappointed in you.]
[The constellation Goddesses Lady of Valkyries and Magic said she will watching you from now on.]
Freyja is just disappointment. But she still watching me. Maybe he curious about me.
[The constellation 'Falcon Bird of Sky Ruler' is interested in your choice.]
As for Horus... He is the Ancient Egyptian deities after all.
[The constellation 'Clandestine Eternal' feel relieved at your choice.]
[500 gold have been sponsored.]
The Clandestine Eternal's case was unexpected. To think he will feel relieved by my choice.
Did I make the right choice? I didn't know. Maybe I have lost this golden opportunity right in front of me.
[You haven't selected a sponsor.]
Maybe I will not be stronger in the future, but I will do something to get higher. Not all things have one way. Like a door. The key is only one to open the door but there are other ways to open it. By using a difficult method. The key is the constellation. While the difficult method is to working hard.
[Huh? Wow... Someone has made very interesting choice. Well, there will be many more opportunities to come.] The Haechi eyes just looking at me for a moment.
[Well, since everyone is done selecting their sponsors, Let's take a short break. I have to go prepare the next scenario. I'll see you after scenario preparation finish.]
Haechi disappeared in the blink of an eye. He told us to rest. Finally we can relax.
"Where did Haechi go, Oppa?"
"He will let us rest. Why don't we rest for a while, Ara?"
"Yes!"
Lee Donghyun approach to me and said, "Then, my name Lee Donghyun. Just as you know, Kwan-nim."
"Don't call me like that. Just call me Kwan. You too Aera."
"Okay."
"Well then, why don't we discuss about this matter?"
"Shall we?" An Aera said.
I quietly activated Information List.
[The information of this person can't be read in 'Character information.']
[This person information has been blocked.]
I can't see her information... Her constellation must be strong.
"What constellation you guys choose?"
"I chose the constellation 'Judge of Justice.' Do you know what is constellation is that?"
Judge of Justice... I know who.
"Sorry, you have to find out for yourself. He must want you to look into his background."
"Hmm, if you say that so."
Tuhh!— Suddenly, a loud sound came from door of cabin 2707. sounds like being kicked.
"W-What was that?"
I have a bad feeling about this, "Everyone, we have to get out of this train!"
"But how? The train is still moving!"
Suddenly Haechi appeared.
[Hah... As I thought this will happened. Consider you as a lucky.] Haechi snapped his fingers. The message screen appears.
[The second scenario has arrived!]
[Second Scenario - Escape!
