Chapter 161

Translator: Rainbow Turtle

‘I will die and Paradise will be destroyed?’

After Kim Dokja left, Reinheit looked down the hill with a blank expression .  He had laughed when he first heard the words . However, he had to stop laughing when Kim Dokja’s expression didn’t change .

Reinheit was annoyed .

Kim Dokja might be a constellation but this was crossing the line . He wasn’t the strongest in the Star Stream just because he was a constellation . It wasn’t uncommon for the 72 demon kings to devour fledgling constellations in the Star Stream .

In addition, Kim Dokja was only a half constellation .

[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ is warning you not to ignore the words of ‘Kim Dokja . ’]

That’s why Reinheit was surprised when the Abyssal Black Flame Dragon came out to defend Kim Dokja .

Who was the Abyssal Black Flame Dragon? He was the most famous of the absolute evil system that even the 72 demon kings didn’t want to get tangled up in .

Reinheit looked at the scenery below the hill and naturally became nervous .  Thus, he acted like he wasn’t .

‘Paradise won’t perish . ’

Reinheit was old but still alive .  He had been watching this place alone for 700 years .  Thus, this place would be fine in the future .  This scenario might be full of poisonous people but he wouldn’t lose if he fought in Paradise .

‘Rather, the dangerous thing…’

Kim Dokja didn’t yet know how terrible the stories that entered Dark Castle were .

The rotten fruit of Perpetual Motion fell off and Reinheit disappeared .

***

I didn’t know what would happen if a battle took place on the spot but fortunately, Reinheit didn’t attack .  It was obviously that Paradise would be turned upside down if we fought here .

Of course, I had no intention of fighting .  Things would be smoother if I defeated Reinheit here but I would be badly damaged and the incarnations of Paradise would develop a grudge against me .

I couldn’t let that happen .  If Paradise collapsed, it must be due to the anger of Paradise itself, not an external enemy .  The incarnations would end up in the same predicament if I acted without revealing what was wrong .

“…Is it over?”

“Yes . ”

Jung Heewon was waiting for me below the hill .  She still had an unclear expression .  Maybe she was struggling with her loyalty to me and the comfort of Paradise .

I decided to relieve a bit of her worries .  “Heewon-ssi . Do you want to go shopping for a while?”

We walked along the street . Noise came from the bustling shopping district .

“…It has been a while since I’ve walked like this . ”

“Me too . ”

As the awkward silence continued, Jung Heewon decided to speak first . “Do you have any questions for me?”

“What do you want me to ask?”

I know what to she wanted me to ask .  However, there were some things I didn’t ask because I already knew the answer .

“Um… my favourite colour or favourite food,” Jung Heewon replied .

“Those are questions that wouldn’t be asked even in blind dates . ”

“…Has Dokja-ssi been on a blind date?”

I ignored the slight hit to my pride and asked, “Are you disregarding me?”

“No… it just doesn’t seem like Dokja-ssi’s style . I feel like you would want a fateful meeting . ”

I felt like I had unexpectedly been stung .  In fact, I had never been on a blind date .  Jung Heewon continued speaking .  “We have never talked about our past before . Aren’t you curious?”

“…”

“How did you live before and where did you go to school?”

I quietly listened to her .

“What was your phone number and where did you live? In addition…”

The scenery passed and Jung Heewon’s voice gradually died down . As she was speaking, she would’ve discovered it .  Maybe it had been too long to tell such a story .

The area she lived would’ve been destroyed and those who remembered her history… probably wouldn’t be alive .  These things happened to us in just a few months .

Jung Heewon was silent for a long time before wondering, “Even if we go back… it won’t be the same Seoul, right?”

“It won’t . ”

At the end of the 10th scenario, Seoul Dome would be broken and the incarnations liberated .

Still, this was just the beginning of another hell .  It meant the scenarios that were limited to the capital city domes would expand to the whole world .



“Then… why do we have to continue with the scenario? None of the things we knew are still remaining . There is no going back . ”

This was why she wanted to stay in Paradise .  The woman from Geumho Station, Pink Kid Kim Yongpal… Paradise was the place where lost people came .

Jung Heewon’s head hung down .  I opened my mouth while deliberately not staring at her face .  “Heewon-ssi is a good sword . ”

Small breathing sounds could be heard .

“You are calmer in front of the fire than any of us . In particular, you are sensitive to the tyranny of the strong . ”

I slowly started the ‘story’ that I knew .

Just because Jung Heewon didn’t appear in the original novel didn’t mean I didn’t know her .  It made me work harder to read her .

“You always fought at the head of the party and never complained about how difficult it was .

Jung Heewon listened to me with her mouth shut .  I continued speaking, “You didn’t tell anyone when you were hurt and even if there was something suspicious, you chose to believe in that person . ”

I thought of Jung Heewon .  The Jung Heewon who trusted me despite my suspicious actions .  The Jung Heewon who fought for me at Geumho Station .


“You might distrust humans more than anyone else but you are actually filled with affection . You are the first to come running when our party is in danger . ”

Jung Heewon was the one who desperately searched for the party when the dokkaebi separated them .  Jung Heewon always joked around but she was careful to make sure we wouldn’t be offended by a little joke .

“…”

“If so, don’t I know a bit about Jung Heewon-ssi?”

Jung Heewon’s head remained lowered as she spoke, “I’m not like that . ”

“This is the Jung Heewon that I see . ”

Jung Heewon carefully avoided my gaze .

“No one has ever told me that… Dokja-ssi would be good at blind dates . By the way, why are you saying this all of a sudden?”

Jung Heewon looked up at me and smiled faintly, as if nothing had happened .  It wasn’t a moment where she should smile .

“This is the Jung Heewon-ssi that I saw because you continued the scenario . ” Jung Heewon’s lips, which had been halfway open, stopped .  “That’s why I believe you should continue the scenario . ”

There was no place for us to go back .  There might not be a place for us to stay .  Still, at least the story was continuing .  As long as the story continued, there were more things that we could barely see .

Jung Heewon carefully opened her mouth .  “…I don’t understand because it is too hard . I told you before . I didn’t do well in school…”



“I’m not saying this in the hope that Heewon-ssi will act . Heewon-ssi should live according to your own way . ”

I opened the Exchange while talking .

[The item that you commissioned to be made has arrived . ]

The timing was good . The item that I sent to be produced had come . It was made from the bone of the fire dragon, the heart of a demon and the nucleus of some monsters .

It was an item that only Jung Heewon could use .  In the original novel, only the ‘three original judges’ were able to use the item .  I paid 100,000 coins for it to be produced and received the item .

[You have given the ‘Sword of Judgment’ to Jung Heewon . ]

The surprised Jung Heewon accepted the sword .

“This…?”

“Didn’t we decide to go shopping together? This is my gift . Isn’t your old sword broken?”

“I don’t deserve this . ”

I slowly shook my head .

“Nope, only Heewon-ssi is eligible for this sword . ”

***

“Kim Dokja has a really bad personality . Are you actually going to leave like this?”

We moved away from Paradise . Han Sooyoung kept looking back as she spoke .

I replied without looking back .  “The things here are finished . ”

“What is finished?”

If it went according to the original novel, Paradise will probably be destroyed .  The peace of the incarnations would be ruthlessly broken .

Should I stop it? I couldn’t do that .  This scenario would never end as long as Paradise existed .

“Paradise isn’t for me to get involved in . ”

“Ah, you are leaving it to the original flow of the novel… why can’t you do it yourself?”

“Reinheit is too hard to catch right now and I will gain a bad story if I do beat him . He has too many supporters . ”



Stories didn’t only have ‘good effects . ’ Some stories would cause your strength to drop .

Han Sooyoung knew this and bit her lips .  “Well, it is like this . Then what about the mental state of the companions left behind?”

“They should get some rest . ”

“What? Rest? Tell me honestly . Aren’t you actually angry? You have done a good job but they fell for a demon they met for the first time . In particular, Jung Heewon…”

“…Jung Heewon deserves it . It has been hard for her so far . ”

Han Sooyoung scoffed .  “Don’t make me laugh . Don’t you know what you have done? Paradise will soon perish . She received the sword and likes you without knowing anything . ”

“She chose it herself so she should be responsible for herself . ”

“You demon…”

Some wounds destroyed us but some made us stronger . It couldn’t be helped, even if I was called a demon . This was my path .  Han Sooyoung grumbled for a long time before suddenly saying .  “Hrmm… by the way, Kim Dokja . ”

“Why?”

“Why are you taking me?”

“You will help me . ”

Han Sooyoung bit her lips and suddenly summoned her clones .

…Their faces seemed to resemble me .  This reminded me that she could change the faces of her clones .

“What are you doing?”

“Training . ”

It was more like a one-sided assault than training .  Furthermore, she focused on hitting a place that was extremely painful .  Han Sooyoung beat me up for a long time before asking, “What are you going to do now?”

“I’ll set aside the scenario for three or four days and gather stories while searching for hidden pieces . ”

Han Sooyoung smiled at the words ‘hidden pieces . ’

“Why? Aren’t you the type to be focused on the main scenario?”

“This time I will leave it to other people . It has been hard for me to do it alone up to now . ”

When I thought about it, I tried too hard to do it alone .  That jerk Yoo Jonghyuk seemed to be working hard but he wasn’t helpful at important moments .  It would’ve ended at the Disaster of Floods or Peace Land if I hadn’t helped .  As I was working hard on the scenarios, he went around finding hidden pieces .

Thus, it was time for him to work properly .  I smiled and said,  “We will now pretend to be the regressor . ”
