Chapter 491
That was Kim Dok-Ja . That sentence, it definitely came from him . She didn't need to hear his voice to know that .
Han Su-Yeong wrote the next sentence .
⸢What's this, you were alright?⸥
Being an author didn't mean you were in control of every word you write . And also, she was the type of person who could only write stuff like that . However, Kim Dok-Ja should be able to read that fine . Because he was the greatest reader she knew .
Knock .
Along with a slight knocking noise, she heard his laughter . Sounds of weapons clashing coming from everywhere hurt her ears . Her companions were still bitterly fighting . No time to leisurely waste time, in other words .
⸢You knew this would happen from the get-go, didn't you?⸥
⸢ . . . . . ■■■■■⸥
She couldn't clearly see the sentence written on the wall . As if, the communication earlier was just a pure fluke of really low odds .
⸢Hey, you! Write legibly, will ya?!⸥
Even though Jang Ha-Yeong was helping out here, Kim Dok-Ja's message still couldn't be seen .
['Wall of Impossible Communication' is unleashing its power!]
Tsu-chuchuchut!
Far too many sentences were aimlessly floating above the wall .
Every single one of them happened to be what she and the rest of the companions said to Kim Dok-Ja . Some of them were clear to see, while some were indistinct .
"Su-Yeong-ah . "
" . . . . . I know . "
While listening to Jang Ha-Yeong's voice, Han Su-Yeong reached out to the wall one more time . She tried really hard to find Kim Dok-Ja's message by combining the floating sentences .
[Fable, 'Predictive Plagiarism', has begun its storytelling!]
[Target is an existence you can't understand!]
What connected each letter was context . Letters cast out in the sea without context were akin to a book that had been created to be unreadable .
⸢"I'm going home now . "⸥
⸢"You'll lend me a spare battery when we go camping?"⸥
All she could do now was to connect those context-less sentences somehow . Inject context into these nonsensical sentences to give them meaning . Shuffle those that weren't plot development so that they looked like it .
However, it was not enough . No matter how she connected them, there would always be some part without meaning .
"Kim Dok-Ja! Say something! What is the plan?! Just what do you want us to do here?!"
No reply came back to her . The roaring Outer God King was still battling the Constellations . The heavily-bleeding companions were collapsing within the storm of aftermaths .
Han Su-Yeong gritted her teeth . It was fine if Kim Dok-Ja didn't want to say it . The important part was reading his intentions . His intentions of making such a move without letting his companions know of his plans .
It was to figure out his thought process on choosing to become the Outer God King .
It was then words began gathering one by one .
⸢If the Ways of Survival was behind a paywall, just how much have I used it so far?⸥
⸢If I had ₩20,000,000 in my bank account, what would I feel?⸥
⸢If there are two rooms, then how does the remaining one get filled up, usually?⸥
" . . . . If I had met you back in the normal world, I would never ever have become your friend . "
Those words seemed randomly thrown out like a memo . She still collected those words and sentences, anyway .
An excellent writer had to be an excellent reader first . And Han Su-Yeong knew a way to read such things .
⸢How does one go about making money?⸥
One had to accept that sometimes, you'll run into a sentence you can't comprehend yet and flip the page over . Just so that, one day, you'd able to read that sentence when you did return to the very same page later .
[Target is an existence you can't understand!]
There was no choice but to desperately flip the pages over and over again, and then some more, to gather as many clues on those impossible sentences .
⸢Doesn't my life have money-making Probability or something?⸥
Tsu-chuchuchu . . . . !
She saw Jeong Hui-Won kneeling down in the distance . Yi Seol-Hwa ran over and supported her, while Yu Sang-Ah and Yi Hyeon-Seong blocked the weapons flying in her direction .
[Bureau's Probability is restricting your interference in the scenario!]
Kim Dok-Ja was right . Probability was to blame for everything .
The reason why he was poor, why they ended up in this state .
[Bureau's Probability is confining your body!]
Tsu-chuchuchut!
Probability in this world was basically power . The scenario would flow towards those possessing more plausible Probability .
[Your Nebula has violated far too much Probability . ]
Han Su-Yeong knew that . This storm of aftermath was the reward for overcoming many dangerous situations through sheer luck . They had so many companions yet none were lost on their way to the Final Scenario .
On the other hand, other Incarnations had to sacrifice so much more trying to get this far .
⸢Why only they . . . . . ⸥
⸢This is unfair . ⸥
⸢Do you know how hard we had to struggle to get this far?⸥
<kim dok-ja="" company=""> had violated far too much Probability . No one was sacrificed when one was needed . Or, more correctly, only one person got continuously sacrificed .
"Kim Dok-Ja . "
He died multiple times and got resurrected again .
He even revived someone that should've died . While using the revival attribute, or even visiting the Underworld, and going so far as to alter the future .
⸢And that's why Kim Dok-Ja had to become the Enemy of the Story . ⸥
Because all the Great Fables <kim dok-ja="" company=""> had compiled didn't have enough Probability .
Han Su-Yeong grasped at the sentences as if she was scratching the wall . It was then a new sentence suddenly floated up .
⸢"For the time being, you take over the Nebula's safe . "⸥
This was a conversation she had with Kim Dok-Ja not too long ago .
⸢" . . . . What's this? I might end up spending it all, you know?"⸥
She received the authority to manage the safe via the system . She wondered what possessed Mister Miser Kim Dok-Ja to do this . Back then, she figured that he was simply too lazy to manage the finances and dumped the job on her shoulders, instead .
[Would you like to confirm the current balance?]
However, would that Kim Dok-Ja really hand over the 'safe' to someone else with that reasoning?
