-Rainbow Turtle .
“…Were the words earlier referring to Ahjussi?”
“What?”
“A new constellation in Seoul blah blah blah…”
“Ah… well . That’s right . ”
I smiled bitterly while staring at the demons around . I was surprised to see Lee Jihye’s crisis but it seemed she had been acting too aggressively .
Demon Viscount Noslocke . This insidious guy who resembled a rhino was a demon who ripped apart and killed countless incarnations . I knocked down a noble-grade demon at once and realized how strong I had become .
Lee Jihye saw his collapsed body and muttered . “This guy was incredibly strong… How strong are you after becoming a constellation?”
“I didn’t defeat him using my own strength . I borrowed the power of another story . ”
“Another story?”
[Who…are…you…] I looked over at Noslocke who was still breathing .
“Wait a minute . ”
I simple stepped down and destroyed Noslocke’s head .
[You have defeated a noble of the Demon World!]
[10,000 coins have been acquired!]
[The item ‘Advanced Demon’s Proof’ has been acquired . ]
[The sub-species of the Demon World will be afraid of you . ]
Originally, killing a demon servant would gain the attention of their ‘demon king’ but this scenario was different . All demons in the Dark Castle scenario were ones waiting for their new ‘master . ’
[A few constellations are amazed by your overwhelming presence . ]
[A considerable number of constellations are questioning your probability . ]
Certainly, the probability was questionable . My strength was currently at a level that violated the balance of the scenario . However, it wasn’t because I was a constellation that I could easily get rid of Noslocke .
[The story ‘Messiah’s Path’ is partially in effect . ]
It was the ‘absolute divinity’ effect of Messiah’s Path .
I borrowed the story which had a special effect on demons from Eden .
[The nebula Eden is asking you to pay the ‘story quotation . ’]
I drew a cross shape in the air and heard a message .
[The nebula Eden is delighted with your narrative quotation . ]
It was annoying to do this quotation every time but it was better than plagiarism . Furthermore, I didn’t have to pay any other price for using it at this time . It was a special service that the Eden nebula provided .
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ is pleased!]
This was all thanks to the cute Uriel . Fortunately, the ‘banquet’ was well resolved .
“Ahjussi… have you become religious?” Lee Jihye laughed while breathing roughly . Her right shoulder and abdomen had stab wounds . “I’m sorry . Doesn’t the 10th strongest person in Seoul look poor?”
“Now is your hardest time . Don’t worry . You will be better in the future . Stay still . I’m going to fix your dislocated bone now .
“Huh? Aaaaaaack!”
I thought I should use the Ellain Forest Essence . However, I had no items remaining in my coat subspace . I had left it to Han Sooyoung before dying .
Just before dying in the eighth scenario, I made a small contract with Han Sooyoung and left my items with her . Then… there was only one way left .
“Dokkaebi Bag . ”
As soon as I opened my mouth, I saw the screen window of the Dokkaebi Bag in front of me .
[Some constellations are questioning the use of your natural privileges . ]
Until now, most constellations didn’t know I enjoyed the benefits of the Dokkaebi Bag because Bihyung would turn on the advertising . Now there was no need to hide it because I was a constellation .
I immediately purchased the Ellain Forest Essence and fed it to Lee Jihye .
“O-Oof!”
“Eat and sleep . ”
“…Thank you Ahjussi . ”
“Well… Thank you for crying for me at the funeral . ”
“…I will faint now so don’t talk to me . ”
Lee Jihye fell asleep . I lifted up Lee Jihye and heard a familiar voice from behind me .
“Ahjussi…?”
I was filled with a warm sensation . I could tell the owner of the voice without looking back .
[Your incarnation is looking at you . ]
I wouldn’t have been able to run straight here if it wasn’t for this feeling . I saw Shin Yoosung crying and thought that parents probably felt like this .
“Ahjussi!”
I grabbed Shin Yoosung and lightly embraced her . “Was I late?”
“You are one week late…”
One week . Damn, I was resurrected later than planned .
“Let’s go . I have to find the items I entrusted to someone else . ”
***
“…A week has passed . Why haven’t you come yet?”
Han Sooyoung lay on the floor of Dark Castle and murmured to herself .
It was crazy to act like this in the Dark Castle seething with demon servants . Fortunately, no demon servants came after hearing her voice . It was because someone had already swept away the nearby demon servants while moving upstairs .
Of course, it was all done by Yoo Jonghyuk .
“Damn protagonist jerk . ”
Han Sooyoung gritted her teeth .
30 minutes ago, Han Sooyoung had confronted Yoo Jonghyuk here . Then she was disastrously defeated .
Her body ached and her head was dizzy . The demons species? They weren’t the problem . The real demon was Yoo Jonghyuk .
“You scammer . How could you use such a person… Kim Dokja . ”
She couldn’t understand it no matter how much she thought .
In the Seoul rankings, Yoo Jonghyuk was ranked third and Han Sooyoung was fourth . Then why was the difference so large? The reason she didn’t lose her life was because of her last-ditch words .
‘Hey! These are Kim Dokja’s items! Are you going to steal them?’
‘…Why did Kim Dokja leave his things to you?’
‘That… isn’t it because I am the most trustworthy person?’
‘Then I will kill you and take them . ’
‘Y-You want to kill me? What will Kim Dokja think?’
Yoo Jonghyuk thought about it for a while before finally letting her go .
‘If you mention him in front of me again, I really will kill you . ’
Then he headed up to the second floor . Han Sooyoung was furious when she thought about it and screamed .
“That jerk… ahhhhhh! Abyssal Black Flame Dragon! Didn’t you say you are the strongest constellation? Why can’t I beat him?”
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ is in deep thought . ]
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ says that it isn’t his fault . ]
Han Sooyoung sighed . It was a scene where she would be misunderstood as having multiple personalities .
“This is a big deal . That jerk brought his little sister up… it is a development that Kim Dokja will clearly hate . The situation is like this but where is Kim Dokja?”
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ is asking about what you mean . ]
“You’re a bastard . By the way, that jerk took all my ‘proofs’ and I will have to start from scratch…”
Han Sooyoung opened the scenario window .

[Main Scenario #9 – Demon’s Proof]
Category: Main

Failure: ―
+
The demon servants were so powerful that the scenario was a bit tricky, but it was possible to clear if the incarnations cooperated . The major forces had already moved to the second floor .
She might be a ranker but she might be overtaken by the other rankers . The Dark Castle compensation was excellent, meaning the ranking would change if she delayed even a little bit .
‘What should I do?’
At this time, a group of people on the other side of the corridor caught her attention . Han Sooyoung thought this was better . She could take the proofs from these guys…
“Han Sooyoung-ssi!”
Han Sooyoung saw their faces and sighed .
“What the hell is this?” Someone cried out .
Han Sooyoung replied, “…I was just fighting the demon servants and was hurt . Lee Hyunsung-ssi also entered the maze?”
“That’s correct . Are you alright?”
He was the Genuine Steel Lee Hyunsung .
‘Why did this guy appear here?’
Kim Dokja’s companion, Lee Hyunsung also came here . No matter how urgent the situation, she couldn’t take away the proofs of the main characters… eh?
“Lee Hyunsung-ssi! Don’t go over!”
The shrill shout came from a beautiful face . The four people who appeared with Lee Hyunsung weren’t anyone Han Sooyoung knew . The woman once again shouted, “Lee Hyunsung-ssi! Can’t you hear my words? It might be a trap!”
“That’s right! Back off! Come over here!”
“But…”
Lee Hyunsung was confused as he looked between Han Sooyoung and the women .
Han Sooyoung spoke to Lee Hyunsung . “Has your party changed? Why are you building a harem all of a sudden?”
“I split up from the party in the labyrinth…”
Lee Hyunsung looked troubled and the other women rushed at him and pulled at his arms .
“Why are you listening to that person?”
“Those wounds don’t come from fighting with demon servants . That woman is suspicious!”
“That’s right!”
“Hyunsung-ssi is too naive! You shouldn’t trust anyone in this world!”
Lee Hyunsung was pulled back by the women with much difficulty .
Han Sooyoung triggered Detect Attributes . The next moment, a cruel smile appeared on Han Sooyoung’s face as she saw the names in front of her eyes .
‘…What am I seeing? It is them?’
The way that people adapted to a destroyed world were different . There were women who believed in themselves like Jung Heewon and Lee Jihye, while other women took advantage of others . The even more interesting way…
“Lee Hyunsung, I didn’t realize that you have an unusual taste?”
“Huh?”
“Don’t you know they’re all men?”
[A constellations who likes to change sex is surprised!]
[The constellation in love with a woman is aghast!]
The women shouted in astonishment at Han Sooyoung’s words .
“W-What are you talking about right now?”
“Don’t frame us!”
It was impossible to think these people were men . However, Han Sooyoung knew them . They were a group of four who used Disguise and Forbidden Charm to kill strong rankers or the weak .
Han Sooyoung remembered the name of this group .
[Pink Kids] .
They had the name of a girl group but they were all men in their 40s . She spoke to them .
“Hey Ahjussis, do you like disguising as young girls? Lee Hyunsung-ssi, if you stay with them, you will be tricked and killed . ”
“What is this crazy bitch saying?'”
“Hyunsung-ssi, let’s go! She is a strange person!”
Sometimes it was common in Ways of Survival to dress up as the other gender . There were more villains in this world than Pink Kids . Thus, these men could be rehabilitated . “Kim Dokja might’ve said this…”
Han Sooyoung was different from Kim Dokja .
“I have to get rid of these disgusting things . ”
At this rate, Lee Hyunsung would 100% be hit in the back of the head by Pink Kids . His death would have a severe impact on the scenarios . A large number of clones started to surround Han Sooyoung’s body .
Lee Hyunsung hastily came forward . “W-What are you doing?”
She demanded, “Get lost . I’m going to kill them . ”
“They aren’t bad people!”
Lee Hyunsung didn’t move out of the way . He didn’t seem bewitched but he stood firmly in place . If she thought about it, this was Lee Hyunsung . The Pink Kids watched Lee Hyunsung with touched eyes .
Han Sooyoung cried out in an irritated manner, “I will kill you if you don’t get out of the way . ”
“Han Sooyoung-ssi . I’m aware that you are strong but please calm yourself . I’m also confident in my strength . ”
“Then try it!”
The clones ran towards Lee Hyunsung while Han Sooyoung rushed towards the Pink Kids .
“Die perverts!”
“You can’t do this!”
“Kyaaack! Help us Hyunsung-ssi!”
Lee Hyunsung triggered Steel Transformation and started to kill Han Sooyoung’s clones with tremendous strength . Han Sooyoung couldn’t help sweating at the enormous damage .
‘He truly is the Steel Sword . ’
She noticed that the Pink Kids were planning to run away . At this rate, she would miss this . There was nothing good about leaving them alive when she had already made a hostile impression .
‘I will do it . ’
She was forced to use a secret weapon . Han Sooyoung smiled bitterly at Lee Hyunsung . “Do you want to see a good show?”
The next moment, Han Sooyoung’s clones surrounding Lee Hyunsung took off their clothes . Her white skin was revealed . Lee Hyunsung blushed as he covered his eyes and collapsed .
“Waaaaahhhhh! What is this?”
Han Sooyoung stepped on Lee Hyunsung’s body and flew forward .
“It is a naked woman!”
Han Sooyoung flew through the air and aimed her dagger at the back of the Pink Kids running away .
“W-What are you…!
Kuaack!”
‘Yoon Woochul . 41 years old . Operated a coin farm . ’
The other member of Pink Kids screamed as he saw his dying companion .
“Shit! We haven’t done anything wrong!”
‘Hwang Mingyu . 43 years old . Trafficking and… what was it?’
Her dagger sliced over his neck . The Pink KIds’ transformation was released, revealing hairy legs .
“S-Spare me! Spare me!”
‘Bang Takho . 39 years old . The children in the third episode… anyway!”
In any instant, only one of the Pink Kids was left . Han Sooyoung frowned as she saw the middle-aged person trembling with fear .
‘What did this person do?’
Han Sooyoung wondered for a moment and was about to kill the last Pink Kids when magic power flew from somewhere and blocked her dagger .
Then a clear voice was heard . “You made a mistake . ”
“…What?”
“You shouldn’t kill this person . He is needed for my strategy . ”
She turned her head and sighed with relief . Han Sooyoung laughed . “You are late, Kim Dokja . ”
