[KimdokjaKimdokjaKimdokjaKimdokja!]

I began walking towards the 'Outer G.o.ds' .

The 'Secretive Plotter' didn't try to stop me . It was as if he was telling me to try anything I want .

I took another step forward . The movements of the vines grew even more vicious . They extended out in an instant, and grabbed both of my arms .

[HeknowsusHeknowsusHeknowsusHeknowsus]

"Right, I do know you . "

I nodded my head towards them .

[ButhowButhowButhowButhowButhow]

'But how' .

I didn't know how to answer that question . When I failed to provide an answer, the animosity directed at me by the vines grew even heavier . Eventually, one of the tentacles wavering around flew in and pierced my shoulder . It hurt like crazy, but the true pain didn't come from the injured body part .

I could hear someone's voice coming from the end of that tentacle .

⸢"I don't want to die . "⸥

Was it an illusion?

For a moment there, the tentacle piercing my shoulder looked like a sword .

… . Not just any, but the Twin Dragon Sword . And I knew the owner of this sword well .

⸢"I don't want it to end like this . "⸥

Yi Ji-Hye was crying . I belatedly reached out, but her crying face had disappeared by then . Her face slowly vanished, crumbling into debris and only the short, aimless voice fragments lingered on .

'The Nameless Ones' .

" . . . . I know . "

I suppressed the pain and spoke up . And then, yet another tentacle flew in towards me . The kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [999] shouted out . As the b.l.o.o.d.y noise of my flesh being pierced resounded out, another voice entered my head .

⸢"Yu Jung-Hyeok-ssi, which number Yi Hyeon-Seong am I?"⸥

The Incarnation of steel, st.u.r.dier than anyone in this world . Just like before, Yi Hyeon-Seong's figure scattered like bubbles as I reached out . My hand wandered the empty air, and his voice came to me from beyond the void .

⸢"Truly, is there an end to these scenarios?"⸥

"Yes, there is . "

I bit my lip and continued to walk forward .

One step, and then, another one .

Every time I did, fragments of the forgotten world-line talked to me .

⸢"I believed we could carry on for a little while longer . "⸥

Yi Seol-Hwa, dying with her heart penetrated .

⸢"I don't resent you . Still, there is one thing I do regret . . . . "⸥

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

s.h.i.+n Yu-Seung, smiling faintly as she scattered away .

⸢"You're so dumb . Captain, I'm Kim Nam-Wun . You think I'll kick the bucket here? I won't die . I will definitely not die . I'll survive, and survive again to see the next scenario . For sure, the next scenario . . . . . "⸥

Kim Nam-Wun, pa.s.sing on with his eyes still open .

Memories from the regression turns that I couldn't even begin to guess .

These were simply by-products of the failed world-lines, a collection of memories with no meaning to them anymore . The precious something that Yu Jung-Hyeok had been protecting even at the cost of becoming the 'Secretive Plotter' .

⸢"I ain't going to be your ally in the next turn . So, don't come looking for me . "⸥

Gong Pil-Du .

⸢"Looks like you'll be left alone again, Yu Jung-Hyeok . "⸥

Anna Croft .

⸢"It's been an honour to fight alongside you, Conquering King . "⸥

Selena Kim .

Even the memories of those who used to be Constellations fleeted past me .

The Goryeo's number one swordsman, Cheok Jun-Gyeong .

The G.o.d of wine and ecstasy, Dionysus . . . .

I stopped walking because of the sensation of the fierce flames from my right side . The tentacle holding onto my arm burned as it spoke to me .

⸢"I can still burn them some more . "⸥

… . Uriel .

I nodded my head and replied . "I know . "

['Outer G.o.ds' are now looking at you . ]

I knew . But I couldn't understand .

Because, I wasn't them .

And that was why all I could say to them were these words .

"This story isn't over yet . "

['Outer G.o.ds' are paying attention to your words . ]

"There are still some things left to be told, right?"

I looked up at the 'Outer G.o.ds' .

These beings, portrayed always as either cephalopods or tentacled monsters . Creatures cursed with the most disgusting appearances by the world-line, because they were not needed by it .

I spoke to them . "I'll tell your story . "

Right away, the surroundings were swept up in the frenzied storm winds .

[Reallyreallyreallyreallyreally]

[WhatdoyoumeanWhatdoyoumeanWhatdoyoumean]

And from the other side, vicious animosity rained down on me .

[Lies!]

[Y ou th ink we wi ll fall for it the se cond ti me?]

Upper-grade G.o.ds began emitting their auras at me .

I swallowed back the blood rising up in my throat and stared at them . I knew why they were reacting so violently like this . Because, they had been continually used by the 'scenario' until now .

[Do kkae bis sa id the sa me th ing . ]

It was the 'Bureau' that learned of their existences first and had used them – the storytellers who, under the pretext of incorporating them into the scenarios, exploited their powers and Probability, and turned them into the 'Evil' of this world .

I spoke up with my true voice . [I'm not a Dokkaebi . ]

[Y ou are a Con stell ation . ]

[I'm not affiliated with the Bureau, nor am I a collaborator of Dokkaebis . ]

[All Con stell ations are the sa me . ]

Those words stabbed and dug into my chest like a dagger .

They were right . I was also just another Constellation who craved after Fables and leered on at their stories . However, because I was a Constellation, I got to know about something important, as well .

[You will all definitely be destroyed when the 'final war' commences . Doesn't matter how you fight, you will still end up losing . ]

[How in sol ent, y ou ca n't tell th at wi thout fi ght ing fi rst . . . . . !]

[No need . I already know . I've already seen all the world-lines where you fight . I do not wish to see you die like that this time around . ]

The branches of the 'Outer G.o.ds' trembled from my words .

[What do y ou me an]

[You say that you wish to be understood . In that case, I'll make you into a Fable . ]

Right at that moment, the surrounding s.p.a.ce-time distorted . Tentacles were trembling ever so imperceptibly .

I sensed that vibration and continued on . [I'll ensure that you can stand on equal terms with the stars in the sky . What I'm saying is that, I'll create a Fable where no one will misunderstand you or despise you . ]

The unrest slowly spread out . A large current of air swept across the 'N'Gai's Forest' as if it was the sign of an incoming storm .

I didn't miss this opening and spoke again . [There is no reason for the 'final war' to start . There is no need for you to remain as 's evil . . . . ]

[Sh ut up]

[The lik es of y ou da res to!]

In the end, I did vomit out some blood . Upper-grade ostracised G.o.ds capable of destroying my body and killing my consciousness completely were descending down on me .

[KimdokjadangerKimdokjadanger]

[DontattackDontattackDontattack]

Vines wrapped tightly around me .

The 'Nameless Ones' were protecting me from the auras of the powerful upper-grade Outer G.o.ds .

[Pa the tic ones that don t e ven po sse ss egos . ]

Ku-gugugugu!

Just one true voice, and the dozens of branches were torn off . Even though they emitted painful screams, the smaller 'Outer G.o.ds' protected me . And then, the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks stepped in front of me as well .

The 'Secretive Plotter' didn't try to stop them or dissuade them . He simply watched on as if he was not allowed to interfere with the decision making process this time .

Just as the Statuses of the upper-grade G.o.ds reached the critical point . . . .

[You speak of some amusing things . ]

Someone suddenly spoke up . A creature was walking out from a portal spinning around ominously .

[Oh, pitiful illegitimate children of the world-line, he speaks of the truth . ]

[And y ou, a re?]

[You shall become a Fable once more and be a part of the story within the stream of stars . That is, as long as that unfortunate Constellation is willing to sacrifice himself for your sakes . ]

It was an old man with a very small stature, yet the shadow he cast was unimaginably large .

There were two lumps shaking about on the cheeks of the giant shadow .

[De vil of ho ri zon . . . . . ]

I too knew of the race that old man belonged to . Indeed, I had a deal with one of them when I went to the Demon World for the first time .

However, this creature right before my eyes was on another dimension compared to the 'Wenny' I met back then .

There were countless Wennys in this world, but there could only be one with two lumps among them .

[Oh, the master of the ancient library . ]

I raised my head to find the Wenny King staring at me with eyes filled with malicious interest .

[Are you truly planning to become the 's enemy for the sake of these discarded waste?]

*

I could see the circular-shaped exit open up in the distant forest . And behind me, many Outer G.o.ds had come to see me off . Their tentacles danced side to side like a forest of gigantic reeds .

[KimdokjaKimdokjaKimdokja]

[GoodbyeGoodbyeGoodbye]

Most of them possessed similar outer appearances, but even then, I could just about tell them apart .

That guy over to the left side was the kind-hearted one possessing a tiny little bit of s.h.i.+n Yu-Seung's memories from the 12th turn . The one on the far right, meanwhile, was blessed with a fair amount of 44th Kim Nam-Wun's . . . . . Hang on, didn't that guy stab me in the thigh earlier?

"There is no need to go this far," said the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [999] riding on my shoulder . "The deal with the Wenny King is as absolute as they come . If you do this, then you will definitely . . . . "

"I won't die, so don't worry . By the way, are you planning to come with me?"

[999] formed an unhappy expression after hearing my question . "As per our agreement, I'm tasked with monitoring you . It'd become troublesome for us if you get in touch with the members of and come up with an underhanded scheme . "

"But, I even did the existence pledge, saying that I won't contact them . . . . Seriously, you Yu Jung-Hyeoks can be too much sometimes . "

The first agreement I made with the Wenny King, as well as the Outer G.o.ds, was that I'd not contact the nor reveal my ident.i.ty to them .

And the second agreement was… .

[Your actions have triggered a new scenario to be created in the !]

[Hidden scenario has been generated!]

I chuckled hollowly as I read the scenario messages .

Even things like this became a scenario… . As expected of the , then . But then again, this world wanted to create a story out of its own destruction, so it shouldn't that surprising, really .

Give Outer G.o.ds a role that wasn't about being 'Outer G.o.ds' . . .

Such a scenario didn't exist anywhere in the original story .

A scenario acquired after persuading the Outer G.o.ds and making a deal with the Wenny King . If I failed it, then I'd be transformed into an Outer G.o.d like them .

This was the second condition of the agreement I made with the 'Wenny King' .

⸢However, succeeding in this scenario will ensure that Outer G.o.ds wouldn't be destroyed . ⸥

I looked at the exit of the N'Gai's Forest and did a light stretching exercise .

[999] asked me, perhaps finding me rather untrustworthy . "Where are you planning to go now? There shouldn't be any scenario with a 'Great Fable' remaining by now . "

He was right . Most of the Great Fables existing in had come to their conclusions by now . However, if my memory served me correctly, then one powerful 'Great Fable' should still remain .

I pretended to ask [999] in pa.s.sing . "By the way, do you also know about the stories from the 1863rd turn?"

"I've heard about it from the Great Plotter . "

"If you guys enter the 'final war' like this, then you'll definitely lose . And even if you somehow miraculously win, not many of you will end up surviving . "

"Are you trying to curse us?"

"No, I'm only stating the truth . "

No matter how powerful the faction of the 'Secretive Plotter' and the 'Outer G.o.ds' was, they still couldn't fight against the entire . Whatever the case might have been, the current rulers of this universe were the 's Nebulas and the stinking 'Bureau' .

"The best way to avoid war is to inform the other side that they would lose a lot by starting one in the first place . "

"What are you implying?"

"Do you know which Constellation slaughtered the most number of Outer G.o.ds in the 'final war'?"

[999] carefully combed through his memories after hearing my question and made his reply . Although, his expression indicated that his pride had been wounded just a little bit .

"No, I do not . "

"The Status he possesses is so strong that normally, he has to divide himself into several pieces . Well, if I'm to describe him, he'd be pretty similar to the 'Secretive Plotter' . "

" . . . . Similar to the Great Plotter?"

"That's right . If only that guy didn't stand on the side of the , if only he didn't perform the suicidal attack on the tens of thousands of ostracised G.o.ds . . . . the course of the 1863rd turn would've changed by a lot . "

My words caused [999]'s eyes to tremble for the first time . It seemed that he had finally realised the ident.i.ty of the Constellation I was talking about .

" . . . . Could it be?"

The Constellation who sacrificed himself to take out countless other G.o.ds during the 'Ways of Survival's final war .

There was only one being capable of doing that . I grinned and spoke . "You're right . We're going to go where he is and make him our ally . "
