Chapter 494: Episode 94 鈥?Beginning of the end (2)

I thought that 鈥榠t鈥?had finally happened when I became the Outer God King.

[You have become the 鈥楨nemy of the Story鈥?]

This wouldn鈥檛 be my first time experiencing the sensation of Fable in my entire body shattering into tiny little pieces. A similar thing happened back when I was booted out of the scenario and fell in the 鈥榮tory鈥檚 horizon鈥?

If there was one thing different between then and now, it would be me not getting expelled from the scenario even after becoming an altered existence. No, it was the exact opposite.

[You have become the boss monster of the last scenario.]

[You will be alone forever.]

[No one will understand you in this worldview.]

I memorised the loneliness I felt in that moment. This feeling of being cast away all alone in this universe. The feeling of becoming a monster that no one could understand for all eternity.

However, this also wasn鈥檛 my first time experiencing such a feeling either.

飧⑩€滻鈥檓 XX Time鈥檚 reporter. Do you have some time to speak with me?鈥濃弗

飧⑩€滻t鈥檚 him. The son of the murderer.鈥濃弗

That was why I needed to take up this role. Only I could perform it to its fullest, after all. That was the price to pay for reading the story called 鈥榃ays of Survival鈥?to its conclusion.

飧[Your companions will never understand your decision.]]飧?/p>

The 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?told me that as if he already knew what my plan was. And I understood why he had no choice but to say those words.

飧⑩€漌e鈥檒l find out later, won鈥檛 we?鈥濃弗

Neither he nor I were wrong. Just that the Fables we compiled were different, that鈥檚 all.

Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!!

The tsunami wave of Fables unfolded right before my eyes. And the blinding sparks of Probability spread out above this wave. And on top of them all, the gazes from the Constellations were streaming in.

[Constellation, 鈥楺ueen of the Darkest Spring鈥? is watching your Fable.]

[Constellation, 鈥楩ather of the Rich Night鈥? is watching your Fable.]

[Constellation, 鈥楳ass Production-type Maker鈥? is watching your Fable.]

鈥?

This wasn鈥檛 a gamble that I alone could realise. Me becoming an Outer God King was merely the beginning of the final pages.

Yu Jung-Hyeok fought hard, my companions held on bravely, and Han Su-Yeong gamely attracted the Constellations.

And the Constellations believing in us made their choices.

飧he plan was a success.飧?/p>

The 鈥楲iving Flame鈥?that rises up from the east.

The 鈥楳aster of the Sunken Island鈥? the calamity of the world in the west.

The 鈥楳onarch of the Great Abyss鈥? the ruler of the northern universe.

The 鈥楰ing of Silverlight Heart鈥? the ruler of the interstellar space in the south.

And finally, the 鈥楪reat Plotter鈥?that crawls from the place of nothing.

The scenario鈥檚 volume began expanding rapidly with the gathering of all five 鈥榢ings鈥? Historical Figure-grade Constellations failed to deal with their combined Statuses and began vomiting out Fables on their knees.

These kings had been excluded from the scenario until now. After escaping from the reaches of the 鈥楬ounds chasing after the Abyss鈥?through the abundant Probability, they had personally descended to the scenario.

The 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?was looking in my direction. I nodded my head in return.

飧nd now, it was time for their stage to open.飧?/p>

[U-uwuuuuh-!]

Several terror-stricken Constellations forgot their stations and began hastily running away. The 鈥楳onarch of the Great Abyss鈥?grabbed the nape of one of those Constellations. The 999th turn鈥檚 Kim Nam-Woon began laughing.

[[Now, now. You leaving so soon makes it a wee bit troublesome. It only just began, after all.]]

He must鈥檝e recovered some of his energy through the Probability鈥檚 overflow. He glanced at me and muttered out.

[[And you, don鈥檛 get ahead of yourself. We didn鈥檛 come here to help you out.]]

But then, the 鈥楰ing of Silverlight Heart鈥?stood next to me and spoke up.

[[We came to aid you.]]

鈥淚 know. Thanks.鈥?/p>

As expected, Yi Hyeon-Seong remained a trustworthy person regardless of the number of regressions he lived.

The 鈥楳aster of the Sunken Island鈥? 999th turn鈥檚 Yi Ji-Hye, also made her move. Fable-grade Constellations hurriedly rushed in from both sides and tried to block them somehow, but it was a waste of time.

[T-the island, it鈥檚, it鈥檚 moving-!]

From the front of the island covered in verdant moss, silvery cannons shone brightly. The biggest warship in the world-line, the perfected [Turtle Dragon], spat out flames towards the rest of the world.

Kwa-aaaaaah!!

The overwhelming spectacle of an entire corner of the battlefield being blowing away without a trace caused me, Han Su-Yeong, and even Yu Jung-Hyeok to become utterly dazed.

And at the furthest front of the battlefield, two 鈥楰ings鈥?were facing off against the Myth-grade Constellations.

飧wo people who fought together a really long time ago were there.飧?/p>

The 999th turn鈥檚 Uriel was wrapped around in the [Hellfire]鈥檚 corona. And the other was Yu Jung-Hyeok who had survived the 1863 hellscapes to eventually become an 鈥極uter God鈥?

飧n that moment, Kim Dok-Ja recalled a certain ancient battlefield.飧?/p>

It was from Yu Jung-Hyeok鈥檚 999th turn.

Yu Jung-Hyeok and Uriel entrusted their backs to each other and fought together during the great war against Constellations. Yu Jung-Hyeok, blind in both eyes and roaring out, and Uriel protecting him 鈥?it was one of the scenes that I loved the most from the entirety of the 鈥榃ays of Survival鈥? And that scene was being re-enacted right before my eyes.

[Fable, 鈥楤attlefield of a Hero and Flame鈥? is waking up from its prolonged slumber!]

A Fable that had disappeared a really long time ago was now connecting the two kings.

[[鈥?I shall leave <Olympus> to you.]]

The 999th turn鈥檚 Uriel spread open her wings wide first. Just as she unleashed her Status, Constellations pounced on her as if they were waiting for that moment.

They were the top Constellations from <Papyrus> and <Vedas>, as well as some other lower-ranked Constellations that fought against us in the 鈥楧emon King Selection鈥?鈥?the 鈥楲ast Pharaoh鈥? and the 鈥楤ird that Eats the Thunder鈥?

[Fable, 鈥楩lame of Annihilation鈥? has begun its storytelling!]

The moment the 999th turn鈥檚 Uriel wielded her sword, the first lines of the Historical Figure-grade Constellations rushing in at her turned into powder and scattered away. Incarnations with pale complexions hurriedly turned around to run, while Fable-grade Constellations shouted out venomously.

[Stop that sword! Stop her from swinging it, no matter what!!]

Uriel鈥檚 sword carved out a burning path, and the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?ran on it. It felt as if the history of the universe flowed within every step he took. His steps seemed neither too fast nor too slow, yet no one dared to stop him.

[Fable, 鈥楬ellscape of Eternity鈥? has begun its storytelling.]

The most dreadful Fable in all of the world-lines began telling its story.

[Great Fable, 鈥楶ilgrim of the Lonely Apocalypse鈥? has begun its storytelling.]

Everywhere his foot landed resounded with the cries of a destroyed world. The original sin of the worlds stuck to him like a shadow and continued to chase after him.

飧o Constellation could stand in his way, and no Fable could save him.飧?/p>

Didn鈥檛 matter whether one was an enemy or an ally, as long as one was a Constellation, one couldn鈥檛 help but get seduced by his story.

When I abruptly regained my wits from that vast sorrow stained in wonderment, he was already grabbing at Poseidon鈥檚 neck.

The latter managed to recover himself in time as well, and hurriedly shoved the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥檚鈥?hand away all the while unleashing his own Status.

[Constellation, 鈥楽pear that Draws the Borders in the Oceans鈥? is greatly enraged!]

<Olympus>鈥檚 Great Fable began making its move. Poseidon鈥檚 [Traiana] bared its fangs while enveloped in a powerful Fable. This was the might of a Myth-grade Constellation that anyone should quake in fear from.

However, I too was a Myth-grade now and I was perceiving his actions differently.

飧oseidon is terrified.飧?/p>

His spear uselessly cut through the air, and it was no longer as sharp as before. It was a mistake unbecoming of an arrogant Constellation, and Zeus next to him roared out in alarm.

However, it was too late by then.

Sliiiice!

Something cut Poseidon鈥檚 torso down, and on his chest covered in blue scales, the lengthy and black wound could be seen. From this wound, Great Fables began flooding out nonstop.

[Keo-heo-uhk鈥?]

Poseidon tried to press down on his chest while swinging his [Traiana] all over the place.

The spear that drew the borders in the oceans 鈥?wherever his [Traiana] drew a line, that place would become an ocean. However, such a thing didn鈥檛 happen this time. For the first time ever, the spear鈥檚 blade that feared no one couldn鈥檛 find what to aim at and simply trembled helplessly.

飧he place where his ocean couldn鈥檛 reach.飧?/p>

Both of Poseidon鈥檚 eyes were soon dyed in the pitch-black abyss.

Most likely, he was watching the darkest Fable known in this world right now. The one about the outer space, where both the ground and the sky held no meaning as effects of gravity didn鈥檛 reach there. A complete devastation with not one precious thing remaining after everything was destroyed.

And the master of that devastation was looking up at the <Olympus>鈥檚 constellations.

[[Doesn鈥檛 matter which world-line it is, you don鈥檛 seem to change at all.]]

He didn鈥檛 sound sad. If anything, he sounded relieved, actually.

Along with the cold metallic noise, the blades of the [Heaven Shaking Sword] extended out to the night sky.

[Shut your mouth-!!]

Poseidon managed to beat back the fear and hurriedly swung his [Traiana] once more, But in that exact moment, the [Heaven Shaking Sword] also made its move, as well.

I remembered seeing Yu Jung-Hyeok use a similar skill to that once before. It was a skill to cut down the stars designed by a Transcender who had surpassed his own limit through incredible dedication and hard work.

However, something felt different. That attack, as if鈥?/p>

飧s if, it was a sword technique created so that one man could face off against the entire world.飧?/p>

Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship.

Transcending the Inner Mysteries.

The Universe Slash.

Only then did it hit home. The power the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?displayed back then, during the battle of 飧ourney to the West飧? was only a portion of what he could produce.

This sword trajectory was the most beautiful I had ever seen.

His blade caused the world to split apart.

Kwa-dudududu!

The sword strike cracked apart a nebula in its entirety and scattered stardust away. And at the end of that magic-like rays of light was Poseidon. Along with 鈥榩uh-ga-gak!鈥?noise, his arm and leg got cut off simultaneously.

[Poseidon!!]

Zeus freaked out and shouted loudly.

Fables exploding forth from the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?were swallowing up the battlefield. The emptiness he felt while living through the scenarios was expanding.

Tsu-chuchuchuchut!

Poseidon vomited out Fables and fell on his knees, prompting the <Olympus>鈥檚 12 gods to rush in. Ares and Hephaistus roared out and swung their sword and hammer. Unfortunately for them, however, they were smacked away by the [Heaven Shaking Sword]鈥檚 blade like a bunch of children.

Zeus yelled out in pure anger.

[Oh, the great schemer! Do not get too full of yourself! You haven鈥檛 even witnessed a fragment of the myth that created <Olympus> yet!]

Even as he was saying that, Zeus鈥檚 figure was beating a hasty retreat.

It was so obvious 鈥?the ark was waiting in the direction he was heading to.

[Father!]

The <Olympus>鈥檚 Constellations abandoned by him spewed out Fables from their whole bodies as the Nameless Ones gnawed on them. Dionysus carried a resentful expression as he roared in anger towards his father.

I quietly stared at those Constellations before speaking to Han Su-Yeong and Yu Jung-Hyeok. 鈥淲e need to stop Zeus.鈥?/p>

Inside of the ark Zeus headed to was filled with sleeping Great Fables not just belonging to <Olympus> but countless other myths, as well. If we let him be, this scenario would become disadvantageous for us once more.

We quickly began running with everything we had on the stage currently covered in Fables from the dead stars and gods.

Han Su-Yeong, meanwhile, muttered in a puzzled voice.

鈥淏y the way, that guy鈥?.鈥?/p>

After cutting Poseidon down, the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?was just standing around, dazedly looking up in a certain direction. I shifted my head towards where he was staring at.

The reason why he didn鈥檛 chase after Zeus was simple. From the beginning, his purpose wasn鈥檛 the annihilation of <Olympus> nor the destruction of the ark itself.

No, what he stared at was a certain something located much, much further away.

The 飧inal Wall.飧?/p>

Endless pages were flipping within his eyes as if he was utterly determined to see what was beyond that thing this time.

[<Star Stream>鈥檚 Probability is experiencing a rapid change!]

Great Dokkaebis began shouting out at the unexpected distortion of the Probability.

[Hang on! This, this is鈥?!]

[Oh, the 鈥楳ost Ancient Dream鈥? this鈥?!]

[Due to the <Star Stream>鈥檚 rapid change, the scenario content has been revised!]

[Clear condition for the applicable scenario will change depending on the camp you have chosen to side with.]

I confirmed the revised scenario detail.

+

<Main Scenario #99 鈥?鈻犫枲鈻?gt;

+

For the first time ever, the title of the main scenario was gone.

A scenario that had never happened before.

A scenario that not even the Great Dokkaebis heard of had begun.

+

Type: Main

Difficulty: ???

Clear condition: Please destroy the ark and put a stop to Great Dokkaebis鈥?plan.

+

I heard the freaked-out voices of the Great Dokkaebis next. With this, they were about to pay the price for giving up on being the 鈥榮torytellers鈥?to become characters in this world.

Also, the facade surrounding us began changing, as well. As if, the world had finally permitted our existence.

鈥淚t鈥檚 you鈥?!鈥?/p>

The clearly-astonished Asuka Ren was looking at me. It seemed that even she could now see my true appearance, at least faintly.

As the sparks wildly danced about, the creatures of fear and disgust, 鈥極uter Gods鈥?were revealing their true appearances. They were no longer the beings outside of the scenario.

[The absolute majority of the Constellations are watching your Fable.]

The scenario we had created was now being officially birthed into this world.

[鈥楳ost Ancient Dream鈥?is now looking at your existence.]

Quite likely, the 鈥楽ecretive Plotter鈥?also heard these messages. More specifically, the messages popping up before my eyes.

Reward: Final Wall
