Chapter 481: 481
Those were Uriel's last words to us . She didn't say anything else afterwards . And while not saying anything, the 'Outer God Kings' exchanged glances with each other .
I didn't miss that opening and spoke up . "We don't have any intentions to fight against you, just like how you don't truly wish to destroy this world . You are just as familiar with tragedies as I am . There is no need to create more sorrow in this world-line . "
[The scenario has entered a temporary state of lull!]
[<star stream=""> is surprised by the unexpected development of this scenario!]
I grew tense while observing their response . The 'Outer Gods' still didn't say anything . I couldn't even tell whether they heard my words or not .
⸢So far, things had unfolded according to Kim Dok-Ja's plan . ⸥
Using the 999th turn's memories, and arousing their memories of 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' .
⸢From the beginning, it was impossible to win this fight with a frontal assault . ⸥
If they got serious and activated the calamity's Probability with everything they had, then this scenario would've ended just as it started . Back in the original novel, there were a few planets that responded naively to their 'Great Apocalypse' and ended up getting destroyed, instead .
[A large number of Constellations that dislike you are dissatisfied with the current situation!]
[A portion of Constellations are opposing against the scenario's illogical development!]
The Constellations were probably anticipating a spectacle of their hated <kim dok-ja="" company=""> meeting a tragic end alongside Earth .
Unfortunately, the 'Outer God Kings' didn't do that .
At least, not for now, anyway .
- Kim Dok-Ja, what's next?
Han Su-Yeong sidled up to my right and asked in a tense voice .
- To be honest, even I don't know .
- Wha??
- This is as far as my plan goes .
As if to imply her thoughts of 'What crap are you talking about', her face was dyed in the colours of pure astonishment .
- Hey, you . You can't be . . . . .
- Right now, we can only believe .
That must've come across as irresponsible . However, there was no other choice . This was the best plan I could come up with, and it also happened to be the only way to lead this event towards the correct conclusion .
I abruptly recalled what the 1863rd turn's Han Su-Yeong had told me .
⸢"I believe in the characters I've created . That's all . "⸥
I could just about understand where she was coming from now . And that's why I replied like this .
- I thought that I can only believe in these people who were like teachers to me – these individuals that I had read about .
I trusted the 'Ways of Survival' . Not the author responsible, no, but the characters that appeared within its pages .
[The 'Living Flame' is looking at you . ]
Uriel, more righteous than anyone else out there .
[The 'King of Silverlight Heart' is looking at you . ]
The kind and honest Yi Hyeon-Seong .
[The 'Master of the Sunken Island' is looking at you . ]

Yi Ji-Hye possessing a lot of affection .
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is looking at you . ]
Yu Jung-Hyeok, who never knelt down in defeat no matter how unfair things became .
I believed in them . I believed in their histories that helped the young me grow .
I believed that their worth would never be tarnished no matter how much time had passed by .
The 999th turn's Uriel opened her mouth . Although, she wasn't talking to me . [[Yi Hyeon-Seong, you said that we might get to see the end in this world-line, the one we failed to see before . ]]
[[That's correct, Uriel . ]]
[[And your opinion hasn't changed even now?]]
Yi Hyeon-Seong nodded . Uriel then slowly turned her head towards me . Her irises were burning brightly just like the corona of the sun .
[[… . Did you say you're the 'Demon King of Salvation'?]]
Against that gaze seemingly testing my righteousness, I subconsciously swallowed back my saliva and nodded my head .
[[Through this world-line's version of myself, I have seen the Fables related to you . ]]
It was then Jeong Hui-Won standing nearby flinched a little . Technically, though, it wasn't her but probably Uriel, instead .
I was getting a somewhat-ominous vibe here .
What the 'Living Flame' said next was completely out of my expectations, though .
[[Your Fables were quite similar to those of 'Yu Jung-Hyeok's' that I'm familiar with . From the way you cleared the scenarios to how you looked after your companions . ]]
" . . . "
[[This world-line resembles ours quite closely . ]]
The expression on the 999th turn's Yi Ji-Hye was rather complicated . I realised why they stood around looking at each other for such a long time the moment I saw her face .
They weren't agitated simply because this world just so happened to be their home planet .
[[Are you aware of the events that took place in our world-line?]]
I hesitated on what to say . This wasn't something that I could explain away easily . Instead of my lacking communication skills, though, my Fables began speaking up in my stead .
[Fable, 'Demon King of Salvation', has begun its storytelling . ]
A portion of the Fables I possessed travelled towards the beings from the 999th turn via the tip of my hand .
[Fable, 'One Who Opposes the Miracle', has begun its storytelling . ]
[Fable, 'One Who Hunted the King of Disasters', has begun its storytelling . ]
I observed them reading my Fables . Diverse, colourful expressions filled their faces . It was quite clear what overlapped with my Fable while they were reading it .
… . Did I also make such an expression while reading the 'Ways of Survival' for the first time?
That was something I'd never find out .
[[… . But, how could such a thing . . . . ]]
It was around then that an unexpected event occurred; the Status of the 999th turn's Uriel, reading my Fable silently until then, travelled over the Fable itself and invaded into the sea of my consciousness .
As if, she wanted to find out the origin of my existence .
[Exclusive skill, 'The 4th Wall', is activating!]
Tsu-chuchuchut!
Just as I expected, the 'Wall' made a move as the blinding sparks danced in the air .
['The 4th Wall' is glaring at the 'Living Flame'!]
The Living Flame's left hand was deflected away as if being rejected, a faint trace of burn marks visible on her skin . She looked at me in pure shock, then the faint hints of understanding began permeating in the lights of her eyes .
[[I see . So, that's how it was . You are . . . . ]] Her voice sounded even more surprised compared to when she was reading my memories . [[The last fragment of the 'Final Wall', is it . . . Is that why the 'Secretive Plotter' was so obsessed over you?]]
"Please make your decision . There isn't much time left until the scenario's end . "
[The 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' has entered a temporary state of lull!]
[If the current situation persists, the distortion of the world will accelerate . ]
Since they had descended as 'calamities', this scenario now had to have a conclusion without exception . The best method for everyone involved was for them to give up on being the 'calamities' .
The 'Living Flame' opened her lips again . [[I acknowledge the potential you possess . Although vexing, I can even agree to forestall my vengeance . However . . . . ]]
Countless emotions brushed past her expression just then .
[[… . However, I don't believe that you'll successfully reach the end of this world-line . I don't believe that an existence that merely imitated another world-line's Fable can witness a proper conclusion . ]]


"H-hang on a . . . . "
[[You'll probably reach your 'Conclusion' when this scenario comes to an end . ]]
The last part of 'One Single Fable', the Conclusion (結) .
A gob-smacking heat storm began condensing with the 999th turn's Uriel as its centre . Salty air circulated around my nose as the seawater evaporated into the rushing winds .
I reflexively cried out at this outrageous transformation of Status .
"Yu Jung-Hyeok!!"
At the same time, he stepped up before me and cut down the rushing hot air with his [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] . However, the heat still managed to cook the backs of his hands .
His breathing became irregular . The [Disconnected Film Theory]'s effect had almost run its course .
Ku-gugugugu!
The 999th turn's Great Fables were activating simultaneously . For some reason, even the 999th turn's Yi Hyeon-Seong didn't try to stop Uriel .
I urgently shouted out . "But why . . . . ! There's no need to do this! We-!!"
The 999th turn's Uriel wordlessly strode over to us . Companions grew tense and began unleashing their own Statuses .
[Great Fable, 'Demon World's Spring', is continuing on with its storytelling!]
[Great Fable, 'Torch that Swallowed the Myth', is continuing on with its storytelling!]
The 'Living Flame' simply took a glance at our Fables and continued to approach us . After every 'Outer God' handed over their Status to her, she raised her [Flames of Retribution] up high .
I bit down hard on my lip .
[The absolute majority of the Constellations are scared of the 'Outer God's' power . ]
[Many Dokkaebis are repulsed by the Fable of the 'Outer God' . ]

Everything within <star stream=""> would soon become stories .
However, why was a story both the Constellations and Dokkaebis didn't want to see deemed necessary?
Just what was the reason for a story to exist in this world when it was only good for plunging everyone into endless sorrow?
[[Do you always seek to create a Fable to tell someone else?]]
The 999th turn's Uriel was talking to us .
The [Flames of Retribution] refined to the stunning degree was now talking about the time outside of the scenarios .
[[Who does it exist for, this Fable you have compiled so far?]]
While listening to her true voice, I realised what her intentions were .
A story nobody supported . Even then, she wished to see the end of this particular scenario .
⸢And that is the answer the 'Living Flame' had chosen . ⸥
The reason why she wanted to continue on with this scenario wasn't because she agreed with the Constellations, nor did she want to side with <star stream=""> .
[[Show me your 'Conclusion' . Prove it to me that your group can reach an end different from any other world-lines . ]]
Stars in the skies were looking at us . Stars that had been watching this story for a very long time . I imagined those countless starlights, and then, end of all the worlds waiting beyond that .
I imagined the end of this story, the one I'd been building up to for a long time .
"Kim Dok-Ja!"
The waves of heat completely filled up my view . The [Hellfire] of the 999th turn's Uriel, intermingling with the odour of burning sulphur, created the tsunami wave of lava . It was the moving wall of enormous Status capable of immediately melting everything that it touched .
The victory would be decided with one attack .
Block that, and we'd emerge as the victors .
"Focus your Great Fables, everyone!"
Petty tricks were rendered useless in the face of a calamity . My companions helped me with the mobilisation of the Great Fables, rather than focusing on their own specialities .
Shin Yu-Seung, Yi Gil-Yeong, and even Yu Sang-Ah, too – everyone raised their hands up in the air and added their share of the Great Fables .


[Great Fable, 'Season of Light and Darkness', has begun its storytelling!]
Accompanying the noises of the heavens splitting apart, the roars of the Apocalypse Dragon could be heard . Right next second, yet another loud howl exploded out from Han Su-Yeong's direction .
Ku-ooooooh!
The former candidate for the Apocalypse Dragon, the 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' was firing its Breath .
Jeong Hui-Won dashed forward while riding on the vicious storm of the [Black Flame] .
[Constellation, 'Lily Blooming on Aquarius', is unleashing her Status!]
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is unleashing her Status!]
Two Archangels were working together with Jeong Hui-Won . Her [Judge's Sword] raised up high was now cutting down the tsunami wave .
Kwa-aaaaaah!
Was it because of the two Archangels' combined attack? For a moment there, the tsunami wave's movement grew sluggish .
Yu Jung-Hyeok didn't miss that opening .
[Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', is continuing with its storytelling!]
Traces of numerous regression turns branched out from his [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] . His Status spread out and began destroying the rushing wave .
- It's not enough .
Unfortunately, his desperate resistance couldn't last for long; the sparks dancing all over his body were getting fiercer and fiercer . The [Disconnected Film Theory]'s effect had finally run out, in other words .
The moment his Status began declining sharply, he let rip one powerful attack at the centre of the wave .
Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship(破天劍道) .
Inner Mysteries(奧義) .
Split the Dark Ocean(暗海斬) .
A minute opening was created by the attack from his Inner Mysteries . I didn't miss that .
[Maknae-ya, preparations are complete . ]
Also, the voice I had been waiting for entered my ears just then, too .
Surrounding clouds gathered around me as if to envelop me – somersault clouds, filled to the brim with cracking thunderbolts, completely encircled me . My body was buzzing as if every lightning found in the heavens had been hoovered up here .
[We can use this only once . ]
I kicked off the clouds and dashed into the gap within the lava .
My wings generated through the 'Demon King Transformation' were lit on fire and it felt like my eyeballs were being cooked by this horrifying heat . However, I didn't stop .
I had a duty to protect this path my comrades opened up for me .
⸢The one single story that can stand as the testament to our lives . ⸥
My feet moved faster and faster until they became streaks of light . I used the powers of [Lightning Transformation] to hold together my Incarnation Body threatening to explode at any second .
Faster and stronger, as if I had become a single streak of lightning .
Ku-rururururu!
The lightning charged fully in both of my hands boiled vigorously . This lightning, capable of smashing apart countless stars found in <star stream="">, the one that half-destroyed <emperor>'s Heavenly Palace . . . .
I used up every ounce of my strength to throw the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
⸢Stars in the skies boiled over, and Nebulas shrunk back . The thick dark clouds rolling in the heavens alluded to their despair . ⸥
This single attack carried all the condensed power of the Great Sage Heaven's Equal .
⸢Just like what he did during the final battle . ⸥
The lightning bolt broke past the incoming lava and advanced forward .
Kwa-kwakwakwak!
The tsunami wave of lava exploded grandly and evaporated right there and then . The streaks of electricity branching out created a path above the splitting wave .


It was the path of the Fable we had been walking on . And I ran on it .
[Great Fable, 'Demon World's Spring', is arranging your 'Conclusion' . ]
The Demon World's 'Beginning/Gi(起)' .
[Great Fable, 'Torch that Swallowed the Myth', is proudly guiding you . ]
Olympus's 'Development/Seung(承)' .
[Great Fable, 'Season of Light and Darkness', is right by your side . ]
The Great War of Saints and Demons' 'Climax/Jeon(轉)' . And then . . .
[Great Fable, 'Liberator of the Forgotten Ones', is dreaming of the Final Fable . ]
… . The last dot that hadn't been filled yet .
Kwa-aaaaaah!!
All the Fables we experienced together merged into one and emitted blinding rays of light . The explosion of light so bright that it seared my eyes, blanketed everything .
When I raised my head again, the volcanic ashes from the lava were scattering away in the air . The sky looked desolate after everything had come to an end . The dust blocking the gazes of the stars fell like snow and covered the ocean's surface .
Someone was plopped down on her butt in front of the [Unbreakable Faith] .
I could see the broken wings of an Archangel . From the beginning, she wasn't planning to win against us . I quietly stared into her eyes .
I didn't know whether this was enough proof or not . Just that, this was the best I could show as the current me .
The 999th turn's Uriel stared at my blade for a long time . It was as if she was repeatedly mulling over the last line of text – as if this pointy tip of the blade was the full stop putting an end to all of her Fables .
Then, her gaze slowly shifted along towards where that tip of the blade was now pointing at .
It was beyond the horizon where the distant sky and the ocean met .
⸢That's where the end of this world-line was . ⸥
A faint trembling flickered past her expressions .
The 999th turn's Yi Ji-Hye, Yi Hyeon-Seong, and even the still-dazed Kim Nam-Woon were all staring in the same direction as her .
Beyond the falling grey ashes, something blurry could be seen .
Fear began clouding the expressions of the 'Outer Gods' .
I instantly realised what they were staring at . At the place where they arrived once before during the 999th turn . At the 'Final Wall' that could never be overcome if one insisted on living within this world of 'Fables' .
[Calamities of the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' are giving up on the positions of calamity . ]
[The 'Great Apocalypse' is entering the termination sequence!]
[Your last 'Great Fable' is blossoming!]
[Absolute majority of the Constellations are witnessing the moment of your last Fable's awakening!]
I could now hear that 'Wall' calling out to me .
[Hidden Scenario – 'One Single Fable', has reached the 'Conclusion'!]
[<star stream=""> is carefully considering the name of your last Fable . ]
[You accomplished a feat that every star in <star stream=""> will revere you for . ]
[You have arrived at an epic that only an extremely few stars have ever reached!]
And finally, the message I had been waiting for the longest time could be heard next .
[You and your Nebula have earned the qualification to witness the '■■ of everything' . ]
[The 'King of Stories' is summoning you . ]
