Chapter 361
(TL Note: This is the first chapter that uses female terms when referring to Jang Hayoung . Perhaps it is because it is from Jang Hayoung's perspective? Jang Hayoung's gender is still ambigious to me but I will be using female terms for her here) .
Jang Hayoung moved through the forest of the small island and was reminded of Kim Dokja's words .
-You are the hidden card of this scenario .
Before the scenario started, Kim Dokja had called Jang Hayoung separately . Jang Hayoung suddenly heard those words and was embarrassed .
' . . . He hasn't been interested in me so far . '
Jang Hayoung was sad . No matter how much time he spent with the other party members, Kim Dokja neglected Jang Hayoung . Three years after the end of the Revolutionary Game or the Demon King Selection . Jang Hayoung had long felt alienated . It felt like she had been excluded from all the main scenarios .
-Why didn't you ask me to join Kim Dokja's Company?
This was the most disturbing thing . She wanted to ask . Why didn't Kim Dokja invite her to join the nebula? Perhaps she was forgotten . . .
[The Unidentified Wall says, "Don't trust Kim Dokja too much . "]
"Shut up . "
[The Unidentified Wall says, "He is just using you . ]
Maybe this really was the case . Kim Dokja was the most practical person Jang Hayoung knew . Nevertheless, Jang Hayoung replied, "Kim Dokja isn't such a person . Why do you hate Kim Dokja?"
[The Unidentified Wall asks, "Do you want to be friends with him?"]
"It would be good if we were friendly . . . We haven't talked much lately . "
[The 'Unidentified Wall' asks, "Why? Do you like him?"]
"I like who I like . " Jang Hayoung replied bluntly and bit her lips . "My favourite is the Demon King of Salvation . "
[The Unidentified Wall is looking at you . "That's him . "]
"It is different! In any case, I just want to get along with him . "
[The Unidentified Wall is sighing . "Even if he kills you one day?"]
"Why are you saying such ominous things?"
The Unidentified Wall had never liked Kim Dokja . It was from the first time it met Kim Dokja all the way to the present .
"Don't get in my way . Last time, I didn't get a giant story because of you . "
The giant story that told of the victory in Gigantomachia, Torch That Swallowed the Myth . Jang Hayoung had watched through the screen and was overwhelmed, moved and finally sad .
She thought she should've been there . She should've hurled herself into that blazing flame . She should've been part of the giant story . Yet she couldn't .
[The Unidentified Wall says, "Trusting people will only make you disappointed . You have suffered enough in your last life . "]
She had no confidence . Would the torch have gone out if she jumped in? What if the giant story was ruined with her involvement? What if Kim Dokja didn't want her involvement?
Jang Hayoung was different from the other party members . She was a resident of the Demon World and came to Earth . She wasn't a companion who fought with Kim Dokja since the first scenario . Thus, she couldn't say that she wanted to go together with him .
There was an insurmountable wall between them . It was a wall that couldn't be reached no matter how she tried . Jang Hayoung didn't have a history to share with them .
"This way! Just a bit more!"
"Heewon-ssi, please give me Gilyoung . I'll take him . "
"It's okay! I still have enough stamina left . "
Voices were heard in the distant bushes . Jang Hayoung reflexively hid herself behind a tree . A wounded man and woman were running while carrying a child on each of their backs . They were people Jang Hayoung knew .
Jung Heewon and Lee Hyunsung . The two of them were being chased by monsters . They were followed by half a dozen orcs and two trolls .
Based on the direction, they seemed to be moving across the field o the source of the smoke . It was the wrong choice . The direction they were heading in had more fearsome monsters than orcs and trolls . If this continued, they would be wiped out .
Jang Hayoung reflexively clenched her fists and got up . To be exact, she tried to get up .
[The Unidentified Wall says, "Don't save them . "]
"What? What nonsense is this?"
[The Unidentified Wall says, "If they die here, you can be Kim Dokja's only friend . ]
At almost the same time, the running Jung Heewon tripped over a stone and fell . Jung Heewon and Lee Gilyoung fell onto the ground . The orc close behind them raised a glaive . It was too late to evade .
Jung Heewon shouted, "Gilyoung! Run!"
Jang Hayoung looked at the falling glaive and thought . Maybe the Unidentified Wall was right . If these people died here . . .
-Thank you .
The conversation she had with Kim Dokja before coming here flashed in her mind .
-For what?
-The words you said at that time .
Kim Dokja muttered with his usual distant face .
-You said it . Even if the other side of the wall can't hear it . . . still, leave something on the wall .
Jang Hayoung had wondered . Did she say that? When?
. . . Was she drunk?
Kim Dokja continued .
-Thus, I'm doing it . As you said, one day somebody might look at the traces on the wall .
Jang Hayoung could see Jung Heewon closing her eyes as the glaive fell . Lee Hyunsung was shouting something while Jung Heewon covered Lee Gilyoung . By the time she came to her senses, Jang Hayoung was already running .
[Your new attribute is preparing to bloom . ]
Her fist stretched out . The orc's glaive broke like straw before her transcendent fist . Jung Heewon stared up at her with wide eyes .
Jang Hayoung looked down at this person and thought . 'Fool . . . '
Kim Dokja wouldn't recognize their feelings . The Demon King of Salvation was a demon king, not a god . He would have no interest in what they did . However, just because it couldn't be communicated didn't mean their hearts weren't there .
Jang Hayoung stood as if guarding the party members and said, "Leave it to me from now on . "
It wasn't too late to make history from now on .
She still had a lot of time .
***
I breathed out and opened my eyes .
[Exclusive skill, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint stage 3 has been turned off . ]
[Exiting the third person viewpoint . ]
Fortunately, Jang Hayoung met with some of our companions . I was nervous that she would be delayed but luckily, it went according to plan . They met with Jang Hayoung and now they would be safe .
I raised my stiff body and reconfirmed the message in front of me .
