Chapter 14 : This constellation is free (3)

“Guys, do you know what this is? It keeps popping up, and I can’t play the game.”

Tutorial or not, this message is blocking my way.
This is what I get right after character creation?

[User “ThisGameFor5Years” donated 100 candies!]
– No, the constellations are ridiculously picky, why are they hitting on him from the start?
– The devs even made this constellation as strong as the Earth Mother.
– I slaved away for 2 years of real-time just to get a low-level contract.
– It’s like a sub-contract of a sub-contract lol

Even though it’s changed to virgin, judging by the nuance, this is definitely a Unicorn. There’s a game company that makes a Unicorn that strong?

“It’s just a horse, right? No matter how I think about it, I don’t think it can be stronger than a humanoid.”

– The established theory is that the devs favor men so they’ll contact them.
– The problem is they put top-tier AI in the constellations so they never contact anyone lol
– And no man has ever played this game.

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast says it feels dizzy.]

[The Founder of the All-Loving World is watching you.]

“Huh? Can everyone see this?”

A character that’s clearly not ordinary just appeared.
I’m still at the entrance of the tutorial village…
I haven’t even started the game yet.

– ? That’s the Earth Mother.
– She’s still better than the others. At least she gives buffs to everyone.
– Looks like the tutorial guide appeared.

Ah. As expected, an arrow mark appeared in my view, telling me where to go.
I had no choice but to follow the arrow, since some divine beast had forced me to skip the intro video, leaving me clueless about the situation.

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast tempts you, saying you can rule the world if you contract with it.]

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast drools, looking at the incredibly tempting virgin. The territory of the one who overcame the 12 trials begins to flood.]

– No way, that rain is their… secretions?
– New information… WooSeok is a virgin… AI can’t lie…
– Ah! I want WooSeok!!
– [You have been blocked.]

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast begins to rampage. The Owner of the Laurel Crown is injured. The stats of contractors with that constellation are reduced by 500% for a certain period.]

[The Earth-Embracing Goddess of Abundance rises her giant body, saying she found a man. Earthquakes occur in all areas related to [Olympus].]

– Isn’t she totally a virgin beach?
– A virgin beach who wants and knows about men more than anyone, but has never met one lol.

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast stabs the Earth-Embracing Goddess of Abundance. With a fatal wound, red blood begins to drench the world. The farming speed of all regions decreases by 70% for one month.]

“Am I just going to cause trouble from the moment I start this game?”

As these notifications kept popping up, I started to get worried.
It felt like the game’s scale was getting too big for me to handle.

I can roughly guess how strong they made the Unicorn; even gods who came to watch are getting hit and disappearing.

‘If I wrote a novel called “SSS-Class Contractor from the Tutorial,” wouldn’t I be the main character?’

– I don’t understand the situation right now.
– It’s a headache when constellations fight amongst themselves.
– How long has it been since a war? Is the game becoming a god-tier game again?

[The Owner of the Laurel Crown expresses satisfaction, saying she enjoyed the show. The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast chases her away.]

[The Earth-Embracing Goddess of Abundance clutches her stomach and runs away. The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast lets out a victorious roar.]

– No, is this crazy or what? lol
– The game hasn’t even started, what’s going on? lol
– Aren’t they gods?

[The Founder of the All-Loving World chases away the other constellations gathered around.]

“Ah, it’s finally quiet. Should I continue the game?”

After fighting amongst themselves for a while, thankfully, the goddess called the Earth Mother sorted things out.
30 minutes have already passed.

Since they have AI installed, they really do act like people.
They fight among themselves, and the effects manifest throughout the entire game.
At least it’s not a game with terrible gacha rates.

“I haven’t done anything, but why am I so exhausted? The tutorial is typical, as expected. If the goal is to save the village, honestly, it’s cliché now.”

Save the village that’s been ravaged by someone’s attack.
The attackers are also Goblins, known as the weakest.

A typical RPG tutorial.
Later on, the mastermind will appear and stuff, right?

– It’s cliché, but clichés work because they’re fun.
– I’m still satisfied.
– I’m from Heracles’ territory, and thinking of this as spit is really making me feel bad.

Following the designated path, I encountered my first monster.
Ugly creatures with green skin were attacking the village, wielding crude clubs.

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast persuades you, saying that if you choose it, such beings wouldn’t dare look at you.]

“Why wasn’t this one chased away?”

– Well, they said it’s as strong as the Earth Mother lol
– Isn’t that obsession crazy?

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast declares it’ll hold its breath until you make a contract with it. *Hoop!*]

– Where did it learn that joke?
– The constellations are always making us work, but they’re just messing around on the internet.

I lightly ignored the Unicorn and picked up the farming tools scattered around to defeat the Goblins.
A bow would’ve been better, but perhaps because it was a village, I couldn’t find one.
Still, they were the first monsters I encountered, so they died instantly with a touch, allowing me to quickly continue along the path indicated by the arrow.

– Uh… why is WooSeok going that way?

[User “IAmDirectionallyChallenged” donated 100 candies!]
– WooSeok, you have to go left to save the village.

– But the arrow points the other way?

“The direction is pointing this way? I’m new to this game, so keep telling me. Thanks.”

[The Founder of the All-Loving World forces you to proceed according to the tutorial.]

The problem was the window that popped up as soon as I turned towards the direction the viewers told me to go.

“They say it’s not this way.”

Wondering if she could hear me, I spoke into the air, and a response came immediately.
A giant pillar of light appeared in the direction the viewers told me to go, and then the village disappeared.

“What the…”

– Tutorial Village (was)
– But if she destroys it, where do newbies start now?
– That village always gets attacked anyway.

[The Founder of the One-Sidedly Loving World forces you to follow the set path.]

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast begins to protest, saying this isn’t right. The weather in all continents begins to change to storms and lightning. Monsters in the land where Mjolnir is buried become 300% stronger.]

Even if it’s AI, are they allowed to change the game like this?
The weather is changing constantly, and because of them, I’m scared to follow the arrow.

“Should I play a different game?”

[User “DoYouKnow” donated 100 candies!]
– This isn’t the game I know… I got a notification that our constellation ran away…

– NNNNN From a viewer’s standpoint, this is awesome.
– Don’t ruin my game, don’t ruin my game!
– Truly a god-tier game, a god is running the whole thing by himself.

I was a little, no, very uneasy, but since the viewers wanted it, I had no choice but to continue.
The end of the newly placed arrow pointed towards a cave.

A scene that screamed ‘I’m a trap,’ a landscape with no end in sight and no light coming in.
Honestly, I had no intention of going in.

[The Founder of the One-Sidedly Loving World warns that a continent will disappear every time you hesitate.]

[The Founder of the One-Sidedly Loving World causes a scene, asking if you want to incur the wrath of the game’s inhabitants.]

[The Virgin-Loving Silver Horned Divine Beast snorts, saying you can refuse everything if you contract with it now.]

– AlmightyWooSeok,eternallightprotectme,AlmightyWooSeok,eternallight
– I’m ruined without this game! I put my life into this!

A god pressed the viewers’ meltdown button.
It’s been a while since it came out, but it’s still a popular game with a certain demographic, so the thought of the game map changing because of me made me break out in a cold sweat.

“I’ll go! I’m going!”

I had no choice, so I closed my eyes tightly and threw myself into the dark abyss.

[The Founder of the One-Sidedly Loving World prepares for the advent. 30% of all users’ inventories are randomly lost.]
