[Sit here.]
"…."
Her voice was solemn and serious, incomparable to when we first met.
As if all the nonsense I heard back then was an illusion.
However….
[….]
"If you're going to stare like that, why don't you just go there yourself."
[…Shut up. Anyway, there will be a chance later….]
Seeing her constantly glancing at Kim Dokja since earlier, I knew her appearance back then was not a lie.
Then as expected.
[Watch your words, Incarnation Kang Yuhyeon. Uriel-nim is not someone you can treat so carelessly.]
[Why is Metatron-nim trying to recruit such an Incarnation into Eden….]
[Ah, Messiah….]
It must be because these guys looking at me with tremendous murderous eyes as if they would tear me apart any moment are beside her.
"So. Let's talk about the Fable succession."
[….]
-Glare.
When I throw the topic about the Eden's Fable she will offer me, the guy frowns.
She told me not to choose Eden, and I have no intention of choosing either…, but I'm curious about what that Fable is.
[…The Fable Eden will offer you is 'Path of the Messiah'.]
"Path of the Messiah?"
[In the Resurrection Fable lineage, it's incomparable to other Nebulas. Instead….]
"Instead?"
[You become a eunuch.]
"…."
I flinched at the word 'best', but my interest immediately turns off at the risk.
What kind of Fable is tha….
[Anyway, it's obvious it won't matter whether you have it or not, right?]
"Shut up."
[And unlike Dokja, you have nowhere to use it anyway.]
"As if Kim Dokja has any use…, this crazy bastard."
[You scoundrel! I told you to watch your words!]
Knowing her true nature, I recalled the words from back then, crumpled my expression, and cursed with quite sincerity, but other angels who couldn't know her true nature got angry like fire and snapped at me.
Really, even just for 1 hour, I want to let that btch talk about it with them….
[So…, what will you do?]
"What do you mean."
[Fable succession. Just looking, you seem to have no intention of accepting from any Constellation or Nebula.]
"Isn't that obvious."
[Just like you. But why? Fable succession wouldn't be a bad proposal for you either.]
"That would be true only for a contract in a relationship standing on equal footing."
This Fable succession has the same principle as a Sponsor. If they share their power, I'll have to do some bullsht for them. In addition, there will be various restrictions. But I won't be able to raise any unreasonableness about it. Because damn it, the positions of Constellation and Incarnation cannot be easily reversed.
[….]
Was my guess correct?
She is slightly surprised and silent for a moment.
[Then, do you intend to make enemies with all Constellations of the Resurrection Fable lineage?]
"Anyway, all Constellations were my enemies. From before, until now."
[Cra■y. You, will be targeted if you do that.]
"Already, seems it's been quite a while since that happened."
It wasn't that there weren't Constellations who looked at me badly originally, but after making Shin Yoosung into a Vengeful Spirit, the number of those Constellations increased exponentially.
Starting from spouting various bullsht like how I avoided the Probability Suitability Assessment, saying this is something a mere Incarnation cannot do….
-Whooosh….
From the moment I went up to the 2nd floor, just like the gaze of Constellations looking at me is unusual.
[From now on, we will hold the 'Fable Succession Ceremony'! Incarnations, please move to the 'Secret Room' immediately!]
At that moment, as a Dokkaebi's voice echoed, I get up carefully and head to where other Incarnations are gathering.
There existed rooms exactly equal to the number of Incarnations, and one by one, Incarnations stand in front of those rooms and grab the doorknobs.
I also stand in one place like them, grab the doorknob gently, and.
-Creak….
Opened the door slowly.
[Now then, let's announce the succession results! First, America's 'Selena Kim'! 'Selena Kim' has decided to inherit the Fable 'Indomitable Aegis' bestowed by the Constellation, 'Last Conscience'!]
There was no change in the situation.
Looking around the 'Secret Room' for a moment, scanning the Constellations who entered my room once, and if there are guys who act arrogantly or chatter at me, immediate forced exit. If there are guys pointing out my behavior, they are also immediately forced exit. Constellations who came purely out of curiosity to see me, immediate forced exit after hearing just one word.
Exiting, exiting, and exiting like that, before I knew it, the number of Constellations trying to meet me became 0, and all Incarnations including me came out and were waiting for the announcement of the Fable Succession Ceremony results.
"Yoo Joonghyuk and Kim Dokja are…."
One guy was calm, and one seemed deeply lost in thought somewhere.
Well, judging only by the result, unlike Selena Kim, Iris Vladimirovna Rebezova, and Anna Croft, they seem not to have chosen a Fable to inherit….
[Next Fable Successor is the Supreme King of Seoul….]
Was I thinking about various things like that?
Before I knew it, the turn passed and reached Yoo Joonghyuk's turn.
The guy whose name was called walked with emotionless and cold steps confidently…, wait. Kim Dokja? Why is this guy suddenly standing up—
-Grab!
—And why is my hand—
"I have something to say to everyone."
When I came to my senses, I was already dragged by Kim Dokja's hand, standing in front of the podium with my arm raised along with Yoo Joonghyuk.
At that moment, I realize.
Kim Dokja, this son of a b—
"We have decided not to inherit your Fables."
As his fishy laugh and voice echoed in the hall, tremendous silence and tremendous gazes from the audience concentrated at once.
At the guy's sudden crazy behavior, Yoo Joonghyuk and I glared at him with murderous eyes. But Kim Dokja, this bastard grinned without caring and continued next.
"We will buy your Fables. If you want to sell Fables to me, Yoo Joonghyuk, and Kang Yuhyeon, deal with our 'Nebula'."
As soon as Kim Dokja's speech ended, the Midday Tryst ringing almost simultaneously.
The senders were none other than.
[Yoo Joonghyuk: What is this.]
[Kang Yuhyeon: Kim Dokja, do you really want to die?]
Me and Yoo Joonghyuk.
[Kim Dokja: It's not once or twice being like this, you should get used to it now.]
[Yoo Joonghyuk: What?]
[Kang Yuhyeon: What?]
At the guy's words, I become blank for a moment.
[Kim Dokja: It's not a bad condition for you guys either. Yoo Joonghyuk can't inherit other 'Fables', and Kang Yuhyeon, you have no intention to do so. Isn't it?]
[Yoo Joonghyuk: I don't know what on earth you know and how far.]
[Kang Yuhyeon: You, will have to pay the price clearly when you resurrect.]
Where on earth did this guy plan from, and where does the confidence to do such bullsht come from.
[Incarnation Yoo Joonghyuk, and Incarnation Kang Yuhyeon. Is Incarnation Kim Dokja's word true? You three created a Nebula?]
The Dokkaebi watching the situation asks looking at me and the guy sweating coldly.
Then the gaze of the entire audience focused here again, and everyone held their breath waiting for the answer that would come from me and Yoo Joonghyuk.
"That is correct."
"He says so."
[Ahahahahaha!]
At that moment, someone's laughter coming from the 2nd floor.
Although it was a voice I heard somewhere, I couldn't recall immediately because the face of that voice was different from hers, but soon I confirmed she was Persephone.
…By the way, why does she have the appearance of Yoo Sangah?
[Kim Dokja, you finally did it. This is why I like you.]
[The Nebula, 'Vedas', is disappointed in you.]
[The Nebula, 'Papyrus', despises you.]
[What? What's wrong with everyone? Looks good!]
The reactions of Constellations were various.
Constellations on the 1st floor with restless eyes mixed with longing and worry.
Most Constellations on the 2nd floor, like Vedas or Papyrus who approached me too, rebuke mixed with direct contempt as if absurd.
And a few…, watching the situation quietly as if quite interested, or even encouraging saying it's rather good like that stupid angel.
[Creating a Nebula when he hasn't even ascended to the Constellation rank yet?]
[Dokkaebi, does that make sense right now?]
[Do you think any dog or cow can create a Nebula?]
[That is…, Incarnation Kim Dokja has recently been recognized for his 'Status' by the Star Stream.]
At that moment, with the Dokkaebi's gesture, numerous blue windows play several videos.
Those were…, the stories Kim Dokja has built up so far.
'King of a Kingless World'
Breaking the [Absolute Throne] with a sword with a white blade burning red.
'One Who Opposes Miracles'
Hunting the Disaster of Questions through the Path of the Wind.
'One Who Defied Irrationality'
Saving Shin Yoosung fallen into madness through the Scenario Force Execution Right.
'One Who Mocked the Storyteller'
Overcoming the Dokkaebi who led with that lousy scenario.
'One Who Hunted the King of Disasters'
Finally cutting down the snake huge as a dragon wrapping white-blue electricity around his body.
[And Incarnation Yoo Joonghyuk and Incarnation Kang Yuhyeon also already have Fables….]
At that moment, my Fables wriggle as if reacting to the Dokkaebi's words.
As if those Fables, which I ignored and didn't try to know all this time, are emitting their existence at this opportunity.
[The Fable, 'King of Curses', frowns as if displeased.]
[The Fable, 'One Who Opposes Miracles', puffs out its chest.]
[The Fable, 'One Who Severed Absurdity', checks the Fable, 'King of Curses'.]
[The Fable, 'Conflicting True Intentions', smiles quietly.]
Like that, was I falling into a slightly shallow appreciation looking at the Fables I didn't even know when they were created?
From the 2nd floor, voices opposing the creation of the Nebula echoed nevertheless, and simultaneously I turn my gaze there again.
[I will acknowledge Incarnation Kim Dokja's Status. But I cannot acknowledge matters related to 'Nebula'. There are two problems here. One, we do not know if Incarnation Kim Dokja has sufficient payment ability. You know that minimum funds are needed to establish a Nebula, right?]
"Coins are sufficient."
[We can know that by checking. The second problem is, who will support your Nebula.]
Simultaneously, the Constellation from the Vedas side adds words.
Must receive support from at least five Constellations. However, which Constellation supported you? Like that.
"That is…."
[No, does the Nebula even have a 'name' in the first place?]
"Our Nebula's name is Kim Dokja Company—"
"No such thing as a name yet. And supporters will be found from now on. Are there any Constellations to become supporters of our Nebula?"
At Kim Dokja's somewhat anxious face and Yoo Joonghyuk's urgent-looking face, Constellations in the audience mutter with ridicule.
However, I just look at them calmly. Because that's not a problem to worry about.
At least from what I know.
[Knew it. Wasted time only. Dokkaebi, continue the succession ceremony….]
Because Constellations to support the guy are well over five.
[Olympus's 'Underworld' will support your Nebula.]
[I support.]
[Ah whatever…. Sorry, Scribe! I support too!]
[I, 'Goryeo's First Sword', will support their Nebula.]
[Then I, 'Maritime War God', too…!]
[This 'Bald General of Justice' will not stay still either!]
[W, wait a moment! You cannot declare support recklessly like that…!]
Constellations shouting loudly that they support too.
Dokkaebi moving urgently to calm that down somehow.
Kim Dokja smirking and Yoo Joonghyuk remaining calm. Was I closing my eyes quietly capturing such a scene in my eyes….
-Ring!
[The Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', supports your Nebula.]
[Incarnation, Kim Dokja has obtained the temporary establishment right for 'Nebula'!]
Simultaneously with a refreshing sound and a certain Constellation supporting him—
-Kugugugugu!!
—The night sky began to collapse.
[…This energy is?]
[Everyone step back!]
Constellations were flustered. Both 1st floor and 2nd floor.
As if proving that this situation was unexpected and the uninvited guest who intruded into this Banquet was uncomfortable and burdensome to them, the guy slowly revealed his appearance from the crack in the sky.
[Outer God! Where do you think this is to come!]
[Why did you not in vite us?]
It had a body like strange and disgusting tentacles.
Like something that would appear in Cthulhu mythos…, such an overwhelming existence. An existence incomparable to the Constellations here right now.
Therefore, at his appearance, Constellations screamed, and several Incarnations including Iris were half-fainted and busy stammering.
[Sorry but the party is over. It's time for you to go back.]
[See you again next time! Dokja-ya, Joonghyuk-a! Not you.]
As two Constellations surrounded me, Kim Dokja, and Yoo Joonghyuk and deployed a shield, a floating sensation similar to when coming to this world of Constellations began to wrap around the body.
The movements of the two were quite fast, but the movements of those monsters called Outer Gods were faster by a hair's breadth.
[Outer Gods look at you!]
[Outer Gods look at you!]
[Outer Gods look at you!]
[Outer Gods look at you!]
[Outer Gods look at you!]
[Outer Gods look at you!]
It moved its mouth and uttered a voice.
Their voice heard along with a static noise chi-ji-jik- as if noise was inserted.
It was eerie and ominous, making me flinch unknowingly, but.
[See you again next time.]
"…!!"
With a voice somewhat familiar and without hostility as the last thing, my vision blacked out.
