I Became an Overpowered Constellation in the Game

Chapter 1
I Became a God

『 Translator – Divinity 』

「Ragnarok」

This game, also known as the War of the Gods,

has a worldview based on the battles of constellations that interfered in the human realm, befitting its grand name.

It was already a famous game that everyone knew, and I was also enjoying playing it.

I remember enjoying it quite a bit, both in terms of the game system and pure fun.

“…Ah.”

When I opened my eyes, all I could see was a pure white world.

And as I faced it, the intuitive thought that came to me was that I was no longer a human existing on Earth.

A feeling of being completely free from the constraints of space and time.

Should I call it a sense of omnipotence? Or exhilaration?

A feeling of confidence that I could achieve anything, create anything, pumped through me, making me feel good.

「Login attempt in progress…」

「Player, ‘KwonSiSiHan1233’ profile confirmed.」

「Logging in…」

「Welcome! ‘KwonSiSiHan1233’ nim!」

“…Huh?”

And what appeared before my eyes was a familiar message window, but in an unfamiliar form.

Floating right in front of my eyes.

What? An unidentified message window.

Even when I raised my hand and waved it away, it stubbornly asserted its presence before me, as if it wouldn’t disappear until I acknowledged its existence.

“….”

Judging that nothing would change even if I didn’t acknowledge it, I simply proceeded with the message, following the familiar feeling.

「Warning! The file has been severely damaged!」

Then it made an ominous sound.

「Restoring player ‘KwonSiSiHan1233’s file…」

「Restoration failed!」

「To preserve the saved file, a temporary file will be uploaded.」

「Do you agree?」

No, agree or not…

Is this really okay?

「Warning! If you refuse permission, you may permanently lose your saved data.」

“Damn it.”

In the end, I had no choice but to agree to the contents of the window.

Then, a number started to rise from 1 on its own.

After waiting for a long time with an anxious heart, it finally reached 100, and a clear sound rang in my head.

「Data recovery complete. ‘KwonSiSiHan1233’ nim’s profile will be temporarily changed to ‘Ron.’」

「Initiating protocol.」

This time, there was a significant change.

The form of my body, which had been floating somewhere without even a visible shape, gradually began to take shape, and my senses started to return.

First, my hands.

Hands with five neat fingers on each, beautifully attached, were waving hello.

‘…They seem to have gotten whiter?’

Should I say my skin has become smoother? A clear difference stood out compared to before.

As I slowly watched my feet being generated, this time the space gradually changed.

“Oh.”

Despite the series of inhuman situations, instead of feeling fear, pure curiosity was hard at work.

What was generated next was the shape of a planet, as if modeled after a globe.

“Wow.”

It was so vivid, it was like watching a real planet, as if it were being filmed with an ultra-high-definition camera from far out in space.

「Welcome back to the world, ‘Ron’ nim.」

Ron. My new nickname, freshly and forcibly changed.

Along with that awkward title, the window continued to pop up, explaining the situation.

「The world has undergone a great crisis.」

Countless stars spread around the planet that looked exactly like Earth.

I knew what they were.

‘Constellations.’

Beings who bestow transcendental powers upon humans and make them worship them.

Thanks to the lunatics who insisted that their god was the truth, the main story of the game progressed.

As befitting the title Ragnarok, those who inherited the power of gods began to rampage.

My role here was not much different from theirs.

The player’s role is to manage their own religion and rule their followers.

Starting as a baby constellation, you gradually expand your influence.

Of course, there were countless trials and errors.

The power of the already established constellations was formidable, and among them were some truly vicious factions.

It was already difficult enough to recruit followers while carefully watching my surroundings, but with the added troublemakers, the difficulty was no joke.

‘But still.’

I did it.

A game is just a game after all.

Isn’t it designed to be cleared by overcoming the difficulty?

That’s the ending that the game company recommends.

I had joyfully conquered the entire main story of the game and become the greatest god, enjoying the rights I deserved.

「You have become the greatest force, the most powerful constellation.」

Next, a vast scene of a temple was shown.

Among the followers dressed in ceremonial robes, the emblem of my religion was displayed high.

Even though I just randomly chose and slapped it on, seeing it treated so grandly filled me with pride.

“…Ooh.”

The production, made to seem so real, made my heart race.

It feels so, so real.

「However, the world has long been deprived of the Lord God’s attention, and the followers have quickly lost their way.」

“…Huh?”

「Losing their faith, those who distrust have emerged from within, and they have caused conflict amongst themselves.」

“What?”

「There are signs that a holy war is about to break out again.」

-Holy war.

It’s not like I don’t know what it means now.

It’s like an experience point event, committed by those bastards who have gone completely off the rails.

But to dare attempt such chaos in the world I cleared, it’s absolutely unforgivable.

“Punish them immediately.”

I want to play the game right now.

I’ve been too busy with real life to pay attention, but I’m not heartless enough to abandon my followers, who are like my children.

We’ve overcome so many hardships together!

I even placed beautiful followers, mascots, within the religion!

Built up likeability with the pretty followers!

Recruited rare and beautiful followers from other places!

“The best religion.”

Yes. I created my utopia, the best religion.

「Father God, the world still needs your attention and love.」

“Okay, I got it.”

With this level of immersion, I’m confident that I can think of it as real life, as my own business, and play hard.

“Now send me back.”

So, this vivid augmented reality has served its purpose.

「The world still needs your attention and love.」

“I said I got it, I’ll go back and play hard!”

「….」

There was no reply.

-Hello?

No one could hear me in this place where I was alone, so there was no way for an answer to come back.

A sense of anxiety, the cause of which I didn’t know, crept up on me belatedly.

“Hey, you.”

No, is it “you guys”?

Whoever threw me into this absurd space, I wish they would just let me go.

If you return me to normal right here, right now, I think I could just laugh it off as a prank.

“…….”

And so, until I accepted reality, I was forced to be trapped in this damn white space for a long time.

***

A space far removed from Earth, a completely different world.

『Dianon』

In this world, a battlefield of gods and home to countless followers…

“…Ah.”

A follower who had not yet abandoned her god respectfully clasped her hands together with firm faith.

In front of her stood a giant statue, a symbol of the religious order.

Their god, who had no definite form and exerted no direct influence.

And her god, her constellation.

The woman was very beautiful.

If she hadn’t taken refuge in the religious order, she might have lived a troublesome life, bothered by countless men.

Her red hair neatly reached her lower back, and at the end of her divinely blessed physique…

…was a heavenly appearance that did not disappoint, piously offering prayers.

Once again, the woman was very beautiful.

But it couldn’t be said that her life had been as smooth as her blessed appearance.

If it weren’t for her Father God, the woman would have lived a very, very hard and difficult life.

Therefore, the woman embraced only her constellation in her heart and vowed not to give her heart to anyone else.

Lisia.

She fell into a deep self-loathing, unable to even keep her name to serve her constellation.

She didn’t dare harbor any resentment towards the Lord God.

She simply lived, firmly believing that it was all due to their arrogance and pride that brought about this devastating situation.

Therefore, even at the moment when the detestable forces stole the name of the religious order and the existence of the Lord God…

Lisia thought that this too was a trial of her love and faith towards him.

But..

“Father God, my love, my everything.”

Lisia, swallowing her sorrow, dared to proclaim that a great crisis had come to the religious order.

“I want to see you. I want to embrace you, to the point of losing myself in ecstasy.”

“Please, guide this poor lamb.”

This insignificant being had no confidence that she could firmly withstand the coming storm.

The faith of the followers was waning day by day, and with it, the standing of the religious order was becoming precarious.

Perhaps this was also a natural consequence, ever since they had forgotten the name of their constellation.

But Lisia did not give up.

She wished for the glorious moment of that time to arrive once again.

Father God, may you once again leave a deep enlightenment and inspiration upon your followers.

May you once again bring light to the world that has blinded their eyes and ears.

“I earnestly believe.”

And the object of such worship was much closer than she expected.

A being who, with the help of the system, was observing Lisia’s form vividly and clearly.

Kwon Sihan, no. The man who had become the Lord God ‘Ron.’

“…Is that, Lisia?”

He couldn’t not know.

Lisia was the special priest he had personally appointed in the game.

But this was real. A real, living person.

“Fucking hell, she’s beautiful.”

And she was a living, breathing woman, possessing the vibrancy he had only dreamed of.

The person he had raised like his own child had become a dignified priest, offering worship to him.

This alone made him want to do cartwheels, but there was one thing that bothered him.

“…Why does she look so sad?”

Lisia had a haggard air about her, as if she was about to burst into tears.

「Follower, ‘Lisia’s’ faith level is very low!」

Faith level.

If the faith level of the gathered followers is low, there is a penalty that reduces various stats.

This meant Lisia was in a very bad state right now.

When he opened the status window to check the details, he saw that the situation was dire, with her faith level having fallen below 20.

No, this can’t be happening.

There were two main ways to work on faith in the game: revelation and holy war.

「Warning! Hostile forces are rapidly approaching follower ‘Lisia.’」

“Holy shit.”

Moreover, the situation was not good.

When he opened the map to check, he saw red dots rapidly approaching outside the prayer room.

There were too many of them for her to handle alone.

…How dare they, my follower?

Displeasure surged within him.

He immediately manipulated the menu and touched ‘Lisia’s’ name.

Kwaaaang!

At that moment, the hostile forces stormed into the space where Lisia was.
