Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint - Chapter 440

Chapter 440: 440
The sounds of explosions spread out from the centre of the battlefield . The surrounding atmosphere was going through a change .
Ranks of Yogoes were rushing over there and 's Constellations continued to descend .
Fei Hu's eyes chased after those ranks before shifting back to the enemy blocking his path . " . . . . You're truly strong . Are there more Incarnations like you in Korea?"
Jeong Hui-Won's whole body was riddled with wounds . However, her Status remained firm and unaffected, while her will to fight burned brightly .
He looked down at his sliced-off chest and waist, the wounds inflicted by her Steelsword .
He wasn't fighting alone; currently, both Erlang Shen and Prince Nezha were aiding him, plus he was receiving support from his Nebula, as well . Even then, he had failed to defeat a single Incarnation from another Fable chamber that entered the scenario as a mere 'Bull Demon King' .
"Stop yapping and just come at me . "
Fei Hu stared into Jeong Hui-Won's blazing eyes and slowly shook his head . "The mere fact that we had to fight so bitterly against a single opponent already signifies our loss . "
As if he was no longer interested in fighting her anymore, he sheathed his weapon and looked at the distant sky .
"And more importantly, the true battlefield doesn't seem to be here . "
As those words came to an end, Fei Hu flung himself in the direction of the 'sacred texts', along with Erlang Shen and Prince Nezha .
Jeong Hui-Won was about to hurriedly chase after them, but then, a battleship suddenly summoned onto the river took them away at a rapid pace .

[Activation of 'Hour of Judgement' has ended . ]

… . That was a really close call .
If the fight continued on for a little bit longer, she would've lost for sure . As expected of Fei Hu . He wasn't a direct Incarnation of the for nothing, it seemed .

[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is worriedly scanning the centre of the battlefield . ]

Wings of an Archangel grew on Jeong Hui-Won's shoulders . She began half-running and half-flying on the water .
" . . . . Just what is going on here?"
Several skirmishes were unfolding all around her and she couldn't tell where she should go first .
Yi Ji-Hye, battling against 's fleet . Yu Jung-Hyeok, fighting against the 28 Mansions Constellations . Yi Gil-Yeong, dealing with the Lords of Nine Stars . . . .
Dozens upon dozens of [Great Holes] had opened up in the sky and the Outer Gods crossing over had all transformed into Yogoes to battle the Constellations .
And in the centre of it all . . . .
"Yu-Seung-ah!"
A young girl was reaching out towards a star .

*

Shin Yu-Seung studied 's Constellations rushing at her .

[Nebula 's Twelve Star Lords are descending!]

[Nebula 's Dragon Kings of the Four Seas are descending!]

(One by one, Sun Wukong's sworn enemies were gathering . )

[It's not over yet!]
[It's fine as long as Tang Sanzang doesn't touch the 'sacred texts'!]
[Divide the army . One side shall retrieve the texts, while the others will suppress their Sanzang!]
She grabbed tightly onto the Chimera Dragon's mane, currently in its Jade Dragon form . The main attack force of was now taking aim at her .
Kim Dok-Ja, meanwhile, was still too far from her .

['s Twelve Star Lords are baring their Statuses!]

Ka-booooom!
Light exploded before her eyes .
The Chimera Dragon protected her by wrapping around her body . Choking heat penetrated into her entire figure . The second and third explosions went off one after the other and the Dragon screeched out loudly . Shin Yu-Seung gritted her teeth and leapt up by stepping on her mount's back .

[Your Sponsor's blessing is influencing you . ]

[Your stunning talent has blossomed!]

[You have comprehended the 'Way of the Wind' on your own!]

She didn't know how this was possible but still, Yu-Seung ran on the river's surface . The blessing of [Way of the Wind] was exploding out from the tips of her feet, and golden ripples spread out everywhere they landed .

⸢Shin Yu-Seung ran as Kim Dok-Ja had . ⸥

This was the same method that her Sponsor used to run .
A mixture of blades and spears pounced on her from the surroundings .
Three from the left, one from right .
Two more, from below .
She evaded them all by a hair's breadth . However, the more she dodged, the more vicious the attacks became . Hundreds of sharp blades rained down like a dangerous storm . It was a spectacle akin to a monster opening its maw wide to bare hundreds of fangs at her .
And as she found herself right in front of such a monster, Shin Yu-Seung pulled out a dagger from her inner pocket .

⸢Shin Yu-Seung analysed the situation like Yu Jung-Hyeok . ⸥

There was something she learned from Yu Jung-Hyeok some time ago .

[Fable, 'Conquering King's Disciple', has begun its storytelling!]

⸢"In the future, you shall become the 'Beast Lord' . Countless monstrous beings will cower before your feet and serve you . "⸥

⸢"However, that does not mean you can become friends with every monster out there . "⸥

During Kim Dok-Ja's three-year absence, Yu Jung-Hyeok taught her how to hunt .
Ways to face off against large monsters . Ways to hunt monsters with sturdy outer shells . And even ways to kill monsters that were hard to fight against in close quarters .

⸢"If you must kill, then do not hesitate and end its life . "⸥

⸢"If you don't, the one dying will be you . "⸥

The moment she held her breath, she spotted a gap between the blades .
It was the calm eye of the raging storm .
She unleashed all of her Status and threw the dagger in that gap .
Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!
Waves of winds scattered away and the blades flying in at her fanned out away from her .
Unfortunately, she couldn't evade every single weapon; a blade's edge brushed past her small figure . Blood spluttered out from her shoulder .

⸢Shin Yu-Seung crouched as Yi Hyeon-Seong would . ⸥

She crouched and, while hiding behind one of the floating debris, Yi Hyeon-Seong's face flitted in and out of her mind .

⸢"This is how you hide, you see? Don't forget to always memorise the location of all the covers in your vicinity, okay?"⸥

Ahjussi, moving his bear-like huge body and assuming a crawling position with a troubled smile on his face . And then, Jeong Hui-Won's voice, adding one more thing on top of what Yi Hyeon-Seong had said .

⸢"It's possible that you won't find a place to hide if there are too many enemies around . "⸥

⸢"Mm, you're right . "⸥

The powers of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were currently controlling the river .
Sharp spears made out of water aimed at Shin Yu-Seung's body and rushed in . Debris continued to explode one after the other, and there was no more place left to hide behind on the river's surface now .

⸢"When that happens, you should use your enemies, instead . Like this . "⸥

Han Su-Yeong spoke as she grabbed and lifted the head of the crouching Yi Hyeon-Seong . Jeong Hui-Won was shooting a glare at her, while Yi Gil-Yeong was cackling away .
Shin Yu-Seung recalled all those memories and grabbed one of the Incarnations attacking her to use as a shield .
"W-what are you . . . . Kuwaaahk?!"



⸢Shin Yu-Seung became as cold-hearted as Han Su-Yeong . ⸥

She discarded the Incarnation Body riddled with grisly holes and continued to run forward .
[She's a pretty smart kid . ]
[Do not let her get away!]
The distance to Kim Dok-Ja had closed up quite a bit .
"Ahjussi!"
Kim Dok-Ja's figure stopped as if he heard her call .
As she looked into his empty eyes, Shin Yu-Seung recalled what Yu Sang-Ah told her in the past .

⸢"I'm sorry that the world is like this . "⸥

She could see her companions gathering around one by one .

⸢"I'm sorry that you got hurt like this . I'm sorry that you had to rely on powerless adults like us . Even if that's case, I'll promise you one thing . We'll always be by your side . We'll do our best so that you don't get to use these types of skills . "⸥

Shin Yu-Seung remembered those words well .

⸢"To make sure that you don't forget who you are . "⸥

Slice!
A long spear brushed past her cheek . She unconsciously touched there as blood trickled down . No one was around to help her . Neither Yu Jung-Hyeok's back that protected his companions, nor Jeong Hui-Won's sword that she could always rely on, were here .
A lengthy arm used the moment that she had lowered her guard and grabbed her collar . 's Twelve Star Lords were getting closer and closer .
[… . Didn't expect her to be a real kid . ]
[They let a child play such an important role?]
The Status of that defied all attempts to resist pressured her entire frame .
In any other normal circumstances, she'd never be able to fight against these enemies . Running away was the obvious route to take, and seeking help from her comrades was the best she could do .

But, Shin Yu-Seung didn't try to run away .

[Condensed Fable has caused an abnormal event!]

She slowly blinked and opened her eyes . Her heart previously pounding away like crazy suddenly grew calm . A cold glint flickered in her eyes next .

[Incarnation, 'Shin Yu-Seung's', Attribute evolution is imminent . ]

[You have found the opportunity to evolve your Attribute!]

"I'm not just a little child . "
[ . . . What did you say?]
Shin Yu-Seung grabbed the Star Lord's left arm . The powerful grip emanating from the child's hand caused the Constellation's arm to tremble .
"My name is Shin Yu-Seung . "

[You have acquired a legendary Attribute . ]

[You have become the 'Beast Lord' . ]

"Shin Yu-Seung, from . "
A Status as white as snow ran amok on the surface of the river . As the Star Lords screamed and backed away, a girl wearing a white coat made an appearance before their shocked eyes .

[Beast King's Sensitivity] .

It was the greatest defensive skill of the 'Beast Lord' deployed by Shin Yu-Seung from the 41st turn .
The surrounding river water overflowed and every Yogoe, as well as monsters submerged under it, leapt out at once .
Gu-ooohhhhhh!
As if they wanted to pay respect to their 'king' .
[Son of a . . . . Where did these things come from . . . ?!]
[Attack! Kill these beasts first!]


's Constellations began their bombardment . But a rising tide of monsters protected her .
"Chimera Dragon!"
Gu-aaaaahhh!
Affected by her Attribute, the [Chimera Dragon]'s body had grown even bigger . The creature swam in the water like an Imoogi and swallowed up the Star Lords while screeching out loudly . Constellations being torn apart by the sharp fangs cried out .
[You stinking lizard . . . . !]
Shin Yu-Seung disregarded those Constellations and ran forward .
[OhOhOhOhOhOhOh]
[YuseungYuseungYuseungYuseungYuseung]
Yogoes created a clear path for her .
And now, the star was literally right before her nose .
"Ahjussi!"
She shouted at Kim Dok-Ja . However, he showed no signs of movement as if her voice didn't reach him .
It was then she heard the Wenny King's laughter resound out as it battled the Great Dokkaebis . [It's too late . He now belongs to the 'Great Plotter' . ]
Those words seemed to be the trigger; the heavens above powerfully shook right away .
Tsu-chuchuchuchut!
A [Great Hole] boasting a size so immense that others couldn't even be compared to was slowly revealing itself .
Great Yogoes on the river's surface simultaneously lowered themselves . All the fur on the white coat of the [Beast King's Sensitivity] rose up like fuzzy hair .
She could sense it without anyone telling her . The one descending right now, it was an existence far surpassing all the Constellations of the Nebula .
And Kim Dok-Ja was now that creature's possession .
"I won't allow that . "

[Tang Sanzang has recited the 'Constrictive Sutra'!]

The moment Shin Yu-Seung activated the skill, the golden headband on Kim Dok-Ja's head began emitting bright light .

[Item, 'Constrictive Headband', is reacting!]

The Constrictive Headband was a treasure to control Sun Wukong .
Didn't matter whether it was an Yogoe transformation or not, every change taking place in Sun Wukong would come to a halt when the Sutra was being recited .
[What foolishness . . . . !]
The Wenny King's Status bore down on Shin Yu-Seung's whole body . She tasted blood in the deepest part of her mouth . The coat created through [Beast King's Sensitivity] flapped around crazily . She staggered on her feet as she walked closer to Kim Dok-Ja . One step closer, and yet one more step .
She saw his messed-up face, his gaunt cheeks . Her Sponsor, his eyes quietly closed .
"Ahjussi!"

[A brand new Fable is sprouting in you . ]

She still had so many things to tell him .
She'd tell him about that stuff that saddened her .
And also tell him that Ahjussi looked terrible right now .
For the first time ever, she'd earnestly tell him everything .
"Please, please listen to my voice!"
She'd tell him that she wanted everyone to stop by at a PC Bang .
She'd pester him to buy her pizza and Cola and have a picnic by the Han River . And while talking about her impossible wishes in a world where many things have become impossible to enjoy . . . .
… . She'd become happy again .
Her vision quaked and tears streamed down without rest .
Finally, her hand touched the ends of Kim Dok-Ja's fingertips .
One hand covered in scars wrapped around yet another, also covered in wounds . It hurt as wounds rubbed against each other . Even then, Shin Yu-Seung didn't let go of that hand .

[Quasi Myth-grade Fable, 'Saviour of a Star', has been acquired!]

[Fable, 'Saviour of a Star', has begun its storytelling . ]

"I still have too many things I haven't told you yet!"
Like, when she was studying history with Sang-Ah unni .
Or, when she was cooking the hunted game with Jung-Hyeok ahjussi .
Back when she learned how to wield a sword from Hui-Won unni .
And when she practised riding a skateboard with Ji-Hye unni .


Also, when Hyeon-Seong ahjussi lifted her up and carried her around like an aeroplane . . . .
When she ate ice cream with Yi Gil-Yeong and read a manhwa, knowing that the follow-up volume would never be released . . . .
"I, really . . . . . "
If only ahjussi was also in those memories .
"So many things . . . . "
'I'm not wishing for many things' – she simply couldn't say those words .
Because, the world's Probability and this screwed-up didn't allow that .
"I just wanted to be normal . . . . "
The stars in the sky were moving quickly .
Individual heavenly bodies sang their own Fables and looked at her .

[Many audience members are looking at you . ]

Actually, she understood it already .
She knew that the ordinary happiness of an ordinary person in this world would not be able to attract any interest whatsoever .
And that was why that ordinary happiness . . . .
… . Was the greatest luxury in a ruined world .
Even then . . . .

[Audience members are paying the cost to reveal their Modifiers . ]

[Constellation, 'Queen of the Darkest Spring', is . . . . . ]

[Constellation, 'Bald General of Justice', is . . . . . ]

Even then, if someone was willing to hear her story . . . .

[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is . . . . ]

[Constellation, 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon', is . . . . . ]

[Constellation, 'Goryeo's First Sword', is . . . . .

As the indirect messages continued to pour in, Shin Yu-Seung held Kim Dok-Ja's hand even tighter .
It was precisely at that moment that a certain indirect message landed in her ear .

[Judge, 'Prisoner of the Golden Headband', has heard your story . ]

Warmth began returning to Kim Dok-Ja's hand .
A blinding torrent of golden rays shot out from Sun Wukong's headband, and that was followed up by a raging storm of Probability's powerful sparks .
Constellations of shouted in their great astonishment .
[C-could it be?? But that doesn't make sense . . . . !]
From several places in the sky, lightning-bolt-like rays gathered towards Kim Dok-Ja's figure .

[Judge, 'Bimawen', has heard your story . ]

(And in that moment . )

(Something that had never happened before in the history of 'Journey to the West' finally happened . )

[Judge, 'Meihouwang', has heard your story . ]

(The retired Sun Wukong has finally turned over a new leaf . )

[Judge, 'Dou-zhan-sheng-fo (Victorious Fighting Buddha)', wishes to hear your next story . ]

Fin .
