Re-Awakening: I Became a Pay To Win Boss Monster Chapter 476: A Constellation?
Constellation? What’s that? Rael tilted his head. Explain it to like I’m a toddler.
[Very well...] Gaia sighed. [Imagine you have ten toys, and then—]
Not literally, Rael cut her off, inwardly facepalming. Just tell what it is.
Gaia giggled, then began explaining. [A constellation is essentially the start of godhood. Many are given the chance to beco a constellation after they reach Grade 6. That’s because Grade 6 is the base level for gods, but that doesn’t an they can beco constellations. It’s a more thorough process than you might expect.]
Yeah, that seems simple enough, so why the special title? Rael asked. A constellation is like, what, a star system?
[Yes and no. A constellation is a being whose existence represents sothing. Whether it’s a story, a myth, or even an ideal. Mortals perceive constellations as figures in the night sky. Their power grows from recognition, worship, and the fact that they’re seen as guiding lights,] Gaia replied patiently.
When she finished speaking, Rael felt like he had already touched on a piece of the puzzle, and her next words only confird it.
[To beco a constellation, you must first acquire Divinity. In your case, you already have the Divinity stat, but those Supre Monsters don’t know that, and for the ti being, I recomnd not telling them either,] Gaia instructed.
Hearing that, Rael gave her a quick nod of confirmation, allowing her to continue.
[Now, the most important part of becoming a constellation is having a reputation that makes people want to follow you. I saw your mories, and it looked like you were thinking of gaining Divinity through good grace...] Gaia trailed off, her tone slightly conflicted.
[It’s a good idea, but your power gain wouldn’t be as great as that of soone whose story or myth is about fighting. Basically... If you are a constellation based around strength, your believers will give you strength. If your myth centers on cooking, then your believers will enhance your culinary skills.]
Rael’s eyes widened slightly. So what you’re saying is that if I go the route I was planning to, I’m only going to get better at making money? Or sothing along those lines...?
Sure, he liked money. If anything, money was one of the most important things in this world, especially for him, a person who could use money to grow stronger.
But to cut off all paths was a little...
[It’s fine,] Gaia said in a soothing tone. [You are what I would call an anomaly, in the sense that you’re not limited by such constraints.]
Thinking it over for a mont, Rael soon put together the picture. It wasn’t a very difficult concept either, so he was surprised he had overlooked it the first ti she had said it.
With my shops, I’m not limited to a single type of story, right? If I sell swords, people could know as the god of swordsmanship. If I do bows, then it’s the sa. It might not be as strong as soone who purely focuses on those things in particular, but it’s still sothing, Rael thought. But what if I’m recognized as a rchant instead?
Gaia chuckled. [Then being a rchant would just be one of the many stories tied to you. Listen... While most constellations are fueled by worship, you would be fueled by transactions... If they see a star in the sky, and have a desire for sothing you provide... which is everything, your constellation would gain power.]
He wasn’t sure if he was hearing correctly, but if he was, that ant that as long as he could build a strong enough reputation, he could overshadow so other constellations.
Soone wants weapons?
Rael would hook them up with a premium shop to buy them.
Soone wants a special potion?
Rael would do the sa again.
In the end, he would co off as a myth among many, a being who fulfills wishes and was always there, watching over the people.
At the core, he would be a rchant, but with so precision, Rael was sure he could elevate himself beyond that, gaining the powers of the constellations who seek strength, and even those linked to cooking.
It seed fun. Very fun.
But it’s not that simple, right? Rael asked, inwardly chuckling.
However, Gaia’s next response shocked him.
[It’s not difficult, especially for you at the mont...] Gaia said plainly, her voice lowering. [If you allow , I can prepare a step-by-step guide that you can use once you’re done in the Depths.]
"..."
Seriously? Rael couldn’t hold back his surprise.
[I am. But that’s only if you allow to,] Gaia replied.
Haha... Of course. You can do it. Use whatever resources you need for that, and I’ll check it out once I’m done here, as you said, Rael instructed, relief washing over him.
[Okay. I’m going to continue caring for the Angel Egg and start preparing sothing. Good luck, Rael,] Gaia added, and with that, her voice finally vanished, likely returning to his Mind Realm.
But hearing what she could do for him, Rael was overjoyed.
He really wished Burger wasn’t lazy and did sothing as well, but for the ti being, Rael wasn’t going to complain. Burger did, after all, infuse the Fate Affinity into him.
I won’t start charging him rent just yet. Still... Rael turned his gaze over to the Supre Monsters who were arguing about turning him into a constellation.
Yet Kareth was the one who made the most interesting remark.
"If he becos my successor, then he can beco the constellation of all that is hollow. What’s so bad about that?" Kareth grumbled. "All he needs to do is defeat four more of us, and at the rate he’s going, I’m sure he might just pull it off so—"
"No." Zarkul stood up, his expression cold. "I am going to fight him next. Are there any objections?"
Despite his sudden announcent, the Supre Monsters, aside from Vatyra who had already fought, didn’t make any objections.
Then, Zarkul turned toward Rael with a completely detached look.
"What about you? Do you object?"
