I've analyzed the text and identified all character names and terms from the glossary. Here's the translation:
# Triumphant Return
Lee Yuna abandoned the idea of applying elsewhere and returned to the planet where she was born and raised.
She received an incredible welcome as soon as she arrived on Planet Ratan.
"Welcome, Avatar Lee Yuna!"
"Y-yes. But what is all this?! Why go to such lengths...!"
A red carpet appeared as soon as she stepped off the space battleship onto Planet Ratan.
Holograms floating in the air were broadcasting her reactions in real-time. People crowded around from all directions, cheering and waving.
Holograms displaying "Welcome Back to Your Home Planet, Avatar Lee Yuna" floated everywhere. Reporters launched tiny cameras into the air to broadcast the situation.
Of course, security personnel were also deployed to prevent terrorist threats or impulsive actions from the crowd.
"Unnie!!! I was standing next to you when you made your Avatar Contract!"
"Welcome back, Yuna!!"
"What was it called?! That superpower. Oh! Please show us your Cosmic Power just once!"
[Constellation, Whispering Constellation says that his first Avatar is truly popular.]
"Eh... Ehhh?!"
Naturally, ordinary citizen Lee Yuna, who had never experienced such a situation even in her dreams, was in a state of mental freeze.
Even though this was a frontier planet where not a single Avatar had ever emerged before, this level of welcome was unprecedented.
So why did this happen?
It was because of Yuna's star quality.
First, the head of the planetary government, directly under the Intergalactic Empire Federation = the president, is elected by vote.
The president must receive popularity and support from the planetary citizens.
That's why they had marked Yuna as a partner to continue their political regime.
Riding on a star's popularity was the same whether in 21st century Earth or in a Sci-Fi Setting, and she even had a compelling story.
1. A contractor from another dimension who emerged from a planet that had never produced an Avatar before. And the first Avatar at that.
2. A success story of someone who lost her parents at a young age, grew up alone, and then was chosen by a Constellation to become an Avatar.
3. The uniqueness and rarity of her Special Ability called Cosmic Power, received from an Other Dimension Constellation.
4. The "touching" story of how such an Avatar gave up better treatment elsewhere to return to her home planet.
5. Physical beauty that was considered attractive even by universal standards.
Avatar Lee Yuna's star quality was overflowing.
The planetary government preferred to appease and ride her popularity rather than reject or check it.
One could say that only those who know how to seize such golden opportunities for political gain deserve to be called politicians.
And so this was the result.
"Waaah!!"
"Noona! Please use the Special Ability you received from your Constellation just once!!!"
"Like... this?!"
Wooong—
She awkwardly raised her hand at the child's request.
When the white glowing Cosmic Power appeared, the cheers grew even louder.
"Ah. Hahaha..."
[Constellation, Whispering Constellation sighs softly.]
Well, she seems happy with it, so I guess it's fine.
* * *
Lee Yuna returned to Ratan, the home planet where she was born and raised.
Having signed a contract to stay on the planet for a fixed term, she decided to take a few days of rest before starting her activities.
First, she met with friends and acquaintances to catch up.
"Didn't the first one to get a job promise to buy meals for everyone?"
"...When did I ever say that?"
She seemed to have quite a few close friends, as they came running as soon as she contacted them, and Yuna chatted animatedly with them.
"By the way, is your Constellation watching us right now?"
"Um... I think so? Since I'm the first Avatar."
"Whoa. So everything we're saying right now is being seen by him?"
Some people tried to pray with folded hands, while others seriously considered believing in a god.
Well. Ever since Yuna returned to her home planet, the number of people praying to me had increased.
"Whispering Constellation, please give me a chance too. I beg you." And so on.
Despite the fact that I'm a Constellation from another dimension, there were even people who offered sacrifices asking me to look at them.
According to the Avatar Contract rules established by the Galactic Spirit Entity, it is strictly forbidden for a deity to descend to the mortal realm with their full power.
But because the method of projecting influence through Avatar Contracts exists, people still make such pleas.
"Hey, Yuna, did you know there's a fan cafe for you on our planet?"
"...?"
"It's true. I think it started after you did that sparkling light thing with your hand like that kid asked."
"Show us that one more time. How do you do it?"
Flash—
"Oh. Ohhh..."
"I want... I want to make a contract too..."
"I'm so jealous of that Special Ability."
Indeed, this is a world where Avatars have taken on the role of celebrities.
Yuna's lips curled up slightly despite her apparent embarrassment at her friends' admiration.
A mixture of joy at becoming famous and uncertainty about whether this was okay.
After meeting with acquaintances and finishing various other tasks, she headed to a columbarium.
In this world, people were sent off in various ways when they died. Burying bodies in the ground wasn't commonly practiced.
The mainstream methods included sending capsules with remains into space, completely decomposing the body, or following traditional customs of scattering ashes in the sea.
It varied slightly by planet and species. Some aliens even scattered the ashes of the deceased into volcanic craters.
On Planet Ratan, it was common to cremate the body and collect the remaining ashes.
"Hmm. My parents passed away when I was about 15. We went to the beach, and because of a massive monster that crawled out of the sea..."
[Constellation, Whispering Constellation offers words of comfort.]
"It's okay. I became an Avatar after meeting you, Constellation."
Small boxes densely arranged on display shelves.
She found her parents in a corner and closed her eyes in silent prayer.
I had assumed this was a world where, due to the advancement of scientific civilization, human lives were reduced to mere numbers and treated as insignificant.
Could this also be due to the influence of Constellations? After all, an Avatar's parents could end up on a list of victims treated as mere statistics.
Moreover, there are transcendent beings watching everything from above.
Although they say the Capital Planet of the Intergalactic Empire Federation cannot be seen, it makes sense that those in power would become more cautious.
* * *
Why monsters appear has never been clearly explained.
Monsters have always existed since long ago, even before the Intergalactic Empire Federation was formed.
Human history has been essentially a struggle against monsters. Each era had organizations specializing in hunting them.
Knights, the Papal Office, Management Bureau, Hunter Association, Civilization Purification Bureau, and so on... The same was true for other alien species.
No matter which planet was pioneered, monsters were always discovered, and aliens were also well aware of their existence.
These creatures charged with an incomprehensible nature, as if bearing grudges against all life forms.
But one thing was certain: they were clearly enemies of humanity.
After all, not a single space monster friendly to living beings had ever been found.
"This way, Avatar. As previously instructed, we've evacuated the citizens."
It was a natural duty and job for an Avatar contracted with the planetary government to subjugate monsters.
The reason Yuna had come to a continental coastline was also at the government's request.
Having been asked to maintain planetary security against constantly emerging monsters and criminals, she had to move her reluctant body to work.
[Constellation, Whispering Constellation questions the planetary government's complacency in not subjugating the monster.]
"It's probably a budget issue. The damage has been minimal, and it's a spirit-type monster that's immune to physical impacts."
A spirit-type monster in the sea. No matter how I think about it, it sounds like a vengeful water ghost.
Ignoring the curious gaze of a soldier behind her, Yuna walked into the sea with an expressionless face.
—Splash!
Without any equipment, she dove straight into the water and quickly descended.
Water pressure constricting her body? Oxygen tank? Underwater weapons? Anti-spirit weaponry? Reconnaissance or containment?
What use were any of those when an Avatar was here?
—Bubble bubble
As if she already knew the monster's location, Yuna went deep into the sea and grabbed the monster's neck.
The terrible screams of the water ghost monster, with its horribly bloated body, echoed and spread through the sea as gentle vibrations.
Keeeeeeee!!!
The dreadful sound lasted only a moment before the monster vanished, and the superhuman emerged from the sea with a relieved expression.
"The spirit-type monster inside is dead, so please verify."
"Yes! I'll report it accordingly!"
Though the seawater made her body's curves more pronounced, she paid no mind as she flew away through the sky.
There were still many places that needed the help of an Avatar who could exert superhuman power.
[Constellation, Whispering Constellation wonders about the origin of the monster you just killed.]
"Huh? Ah. It was similar to the water ghosts that appear in mass media, something resembling a human. But I don't think it was actually created from a dead person."
Yuna's mouth moved busily as she flew through the sky, drawing on her Cosmic Power.
She chattered about having faced such types of monsters several times before, and how all monsters charge as if bearing grudges.
Her chattering appearance was quite pleasant to see.
Unlike moments ago when she twisted the water ghost monster's neck with a cold expression full of hostility, her face now looked much more refreshed.
To the point where I wished these everyday moments would continue.
But those space monsters...
Unlike ordinary creatures, they seem to possess special abilities in the realm of Special Abilities.
Originally, Special Abilities were the exclusive domain of deities.
Ordinary creatures couldn't possibly use them.
Those monsters might be evolving to become stronger, or there might even be some that could match beings called Constellations, who are like gods.
