Chapter 502
Odin from the east, Nuwa from the west, and Osiris from the south . . .
We were somehow maintaining a precarious balance within this cauldron of Great Fables ceaselessly pounding on us .
[Your Incarnation Body is breaking down!]
I forgot how many times I've heard that message by now . Yu Jung-Hyeok's body right next to me wasn't okay, either; he was left in tatters after taking on the combined attacks from both Odin and Nuwa meant for Han Su-Yeong and me .
Our gazes met for a moment there, but he scowled at me as if to ask, "What are you looking at?" before pulling something out from his inner pocket to swallow it .
[Incarnation, 'Yu Jung-Hyeok', is using 'Life and Death Pill'!]
In the end, he had consumed the very last Life and Death Pill Yi Seol-Hwa gave us . We didn't have any left now .
[Guwaaaaah! Endure!!]
The Korean Peninsula's Constellations roared out like untamed beasts and wielded their weapons .
Kim Yu-Shin did, so did Gyebaek, too . Gwanchang, as well . Constellations that crossed swords once upon a time were now turning over a new leaf together in a single Fable under the shade of the [Shindansu] .
Cheok Jun-Gyeong could be seen standing at the forefront cutting enemies down .
⸢[This is why I can't abandon this land even though I curse it so much . Only a few dying will resolve the issue, yet everyone's jumping in to die together . . . . ⸥
Even Pungbaek stayed by his side to raise winds and roared out like a lion . The one who was at odds with us back in the Great War of Saints and Demons, was now standing up for our sakes .
⸢[I can aid the descendants of <hongik> . I don't need any compensation . ⸥
Pungbaek's winds writhed violently, and the <hongik>'s Constellations rode on that wind to rush forward . Yi Sun-Shin's [Ghost Fleet] kept firing their cannons, while Gyeonhwon's arrows pierced through the hearts of many stars .
However, the number of enemies didn't seem to be decreasing at all .
[Where is this Korean Peninsula even located in?]
[These measly Historical Figure-grade bastards dare to . . . . ! You insects! Sweep them all away!]
Even then, the Korean Peninsula's Constellations were enduring well .
[Great Fable, 'Shindansu', is raising the strengths of all Constellations from the Korean Peninsula!]
If the enemies had Odin and Osiris, then we too had a Myth-grade Constellation – the Myth-grade that could greatly enhance [Shindansu]'s power, Constellation 'Virtuous Wanggeom' .
[Constellation, 'Virtuous Wanggeom', says that this is all the aid he can provide . ]
Unlike other Myth-grade Constellations, his sense of presence seemed quite faint . It was probably due to the effects of this world-line; <hongik> didn't have a whole lot to do during this world-line, after all .
And it was quite likely that <hongik>'s Constellations couldn't get out from the ark's cabin due to the pressure exerted by other Myth-grade Constellations .
[Do not show them your backs! We shall never retreat!]
[Fable, 'Burning the Boats', has begun its storytelling!]
Cheok Jun-Gyeong raised his sword, and Yi Sun-Shin continued to command the others . These heroes from the mythical history who had never yielded to any myth, continued their battle against the actual gods from various myths .
Even though their flesh was torn apart and their entire bodies were wrecked, they never knelt down and continued to wield their blades .
⸢The Korean Peninsula's surface area was getting smaller and smaller . ⸥
Jeon Woo-Chi who had morphed into a tiger to fight, finally collapsed . Seo Ae One Stroke of Brush's personal brush broke, and Yi Sun-Shin's Ghost Fleet sank one by one . Even Cheok Jun-Gyeong's sword, capable of cutting down thousands of enemies, mountains and seas, was getting dull, as well .
I already expected this . I was supposed to harden my resolve several times over by now . The Fable to be written from now on would consist of texts stained by the blood of these stars .
[<star stream="">'s final Great Fable is sprouting new buds!]
Right next second, Thor's hammer came flying in at Cheok Jun-Gyeong's neck . It was an attack that not even the Korean Peninsula's greatest warrior could dodge .
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is unleashing all of her Status!]
And it was Uriel that blocked the incoming attack .
"Kim Dok-Ja! Archangels have arrived!"
Han Su-Yeong shouted out .
More Archangels descended on the battlefield, accompanied by blinding rays of light . And in the centre of them was Uriel wielding the [Flames of Conflagration] .
⸢[ . . . . It's like, me and Gabriel want to join 'Kim Dok-Ja Company' too, you see?]⸥
Uriel said that to us just before we left for the Final Scenario . She wanted to join our Nebula, and wanted to become our strength, she said .
⸢The Constellation who has changed the most from the 'original' Kim Dok-Ja knew . ⸥
I never figured out why Uriel liked our story so much .
⸢"Do you really wish to go that far just to help us?"⸥
All I could do now was to cowardly take advantage of her goodwill .
[A new 'Great Good' has appeared in <eden>!]
Uriel's Status whipped about stylishly .
She was now no longer the 'Fable-grade Constellation' Uriel .
Ku-gugugugu!
[… . A new 'Great Good'?]
Myth-grade Constellations looked at Uriel and began freaking out .
The new Great Good of <eden>, an existence meant to replace the Myth-grade Constellation, 'Metatron' . Uriel had become <eden>'s leader, and chose to help us .
[All seraphim, advance!]
Along with Raphael's signal, Archangels collided against the Fable-grade Constellations from <papyrus> and <vedas> .
['Most Ancient Good' is searching for its enemy!]
[Do you really think that the likes of a destroyed Nebula can overturn this battle's outcome?]
Odin remained unflustered even then, and raised his spear to point it at Uriel . And the god spear that reputedly no one could evade, [Gungnir], flew towards her .
[Get out my sight . ]
The Statuses of [Flames of Conflagration] and [Gungnir] collided .
Odin's thunderclaps tearing through the heavens, and Uriel's conflagration that incinerated hell, clashed face to face .
Two Statuses fought intensely; in the battle between two Myth-grade Constellations where neither of them would normally back down, it was surprisingly Odin who withdrew first . His left arm summoning the spear back was trembling ever so slightly .
[How pathetic, Odin . Allow me to help . ]
Myth-grade Constellations were far more sensitive towards danger than any other existences .
They were the oldest stars in this world that hated unexpected variables . And that was why they would never allow any sort of danger to blossom .
Myth-grade Constellations exchanged glances in less than a blink of an eye and commenced bombardment on Uriel simultaneously .
Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!
Even if she was now <eden>'s Great Good, she still wouldn't be able to defend against such an attack . However, she didn't back down . Even though feathers of her wings were ripped off, and crimson Fable splattered on her pale cheeks, her sword didn't weaken at all .
[None of you are my greatest enemy . ]
Uriel who had always been watching our Fable from high up above in the sky – her eyes were now shifting in my direction .
[Nebula, <eden>, is readying its 'Great Fable' . ]
"Dok-Ja-ssi!"
From afar, my companions including Jeong Hui-Won were rushing towards us . Maybe she already knew the truth . Knew what Uriel was planning to do here .
Tsu-chuchuchut!
<eden> alone couldn't fight against all of these Great Nebulas . The strengths of the Myth-grade Constellations permeating within this ark would even equal the whole of <star stream=""> itself . So, if one wanted to defeat them, one required a 'Great Fable' with truly incredible Probability .
[The ⸢Stage Transformation⸥ is activating!]
Simply put, a massive myth that could bring all the other myths to their doom was needed .
[I am the 'Demon-like Judge of Fire' . ]
Uriel slowly blinked her eyes currently burning up like a real demon's .
[I wish for an 'Evil' that will validate my Modifier . ]
As her words came to an end, flames erupting out from her [Flames of Conflagration] burned through the stars in the heavens . Something began writhing from the other side of hell .
⸢The Most Ancient Good called out to its enemy . ⸥
Right then, Yi Gil-Yeong's eyes suddenly became white .
⸢And the demon curled up in hell's deepest pit answered that call . ⸥
Something resembling the pitch-black storm clouds rolled in from beyond the burning sky .
