Dokhyuk Moments: Part 20

- means I skipped sentence(s)

“Yoo Jonghyuk!”

My cry didn’t reach him properly. — Yoo Jonghyuk was dying. —

I held my breath and the shouted with the greatest true voice possible. [Asmodeus!]

The true voice burst out and the constellations blocked their ears for a moment. —

And tears poured from my eyes.

The difference between them tho- when Dokja was dying, the regretted sunfish of a bastard slapped his cheeks till they were swollen.

And then here’s Dokja, freaking 😭 ng and begging for Jonghyuk to not die.

I ran with all my strength while carrying Yoo Jonghyuk on my back. “Wake up! Please” — I listened to his gradually slowing heart beat and cried, “Hey, don’t mess around! You can recover! Do something!”

^again, just look at the desperation.

One of my favorite angst tropes is when a character listens to the heartbeat of their lover slowly disappearing.

[Yoo Jonghyuk had a thought]

“Don’t think it.”

[This life ends here]

“Dammit! Don’t think about it!”

— “Shit! Don’t go back! You jerk, leave him alone!”

[The sponsor of the incarnation ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ is looking at you]

“You can still survive! This round isn’t over! You can fight back against this guy! I can save you!”

The fact that (spoilers) older Dokja probably saw himself like that and felt a wave of nostalgia watching his younger self hate him so much. TT

[The incarnation ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ has refused to regress]

When I tell you I screamed-

[What is your relationship with Yoo Jonghyuk?]

[We are Life and Death Companions] —

I couldn’t help but laugh at the memory. Now, we could really live or die together.

Shut the duck up, it’s a fucking marriage.

I held Yoo Jonghyuk tightly as I ran. -

It’s so cause seeing him hold onto Jonghyuk’s body as if it would break at any moment.

Dokja’s need to protect his favorite person in the whole wide world n his moment of (rare) weakness.

“Lee Hyunsung-ssi!”

Yoo Jonghyuk’s body flew through the air and Lee Hyunsung caught him.

...nvm 💀 this wasn’t planned i swear-

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 21

- means I skipped sentence(s)

We saw the unusual appearance and Yoo Jonghyuk and I raised our swords at the same time.

Ooo twinning-

There was the explosive system message and Yoo Jonghyuk and I simultaneously looked at the sky.

Okay this is getting creepy

[A large number of constellations remember the name ‘Kim Dokja’s Company]

Yoo Jonghyuk heard the message and frowned. “The name needs to be changed”

I smiled at the guy. — it wouldn’t be bad for us to brainstorm names for the nebula sooner or later.

They never had the chance to do that 😭

Aileen left, but I stayed in Yoo Jonghyuk’s hospital room.

I love cliche tropes.

“Didn’t I tell you? There’s nothing going on between them. Dokja Ahjussi’s taste doesn’t go that way. We-”

“I understand why my sponsor likes you.”

Lee Jihye really-

After a while, Gabriel opened the usb in his room. Then...

[What the hell did you do on this mission?]

Despite his mutters, Gabriel couldn’t take his eyes off the screen.

👀

He refused to regress. He fought alongside Kim Dokja and won against Surya. He thought about it and energy filled his head.

This is so cute

Yoo Jonghyuk let out a groan as he raised his upper body up. He saw a small pocket watch wrapped around his arm with a watch strap.

Aaaand there’s the trope. Lover leaves an important gift before dying

Yoo Jonghyuk looked at the party members with bewildered eyes. He didn’t see a familiar face. “...Kim Dokja?” —

[The item Midday Tryst has been used]-

[The message had been returned]

He repeatedly sent the message.

Just imagine his heartbreak. It’s so sad to read. He was just silently celebrating their victory and then is hit a all the realization.

[Well you must like him a lot. You sacrificed three fingers for him]

In my first read, when his identity was revealed, I started a whole rant about how every Yoo Jonghyuk needs a Kim Dokja.

I looked at the trajectory sword and emotions filled my heart. He was alive, although he wasn’t exactly the same as he was when I left him.

His physic was bigger, his impression a bit sharper, and he had a scar in his cheek. But there was no way I wouldn’t recognize him.

I’m sorry but I will be passing away for unknown reasons.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 26

- means skipped parts. You know the drill by now.

For the next two days, I was on Yoo Jonghyuk’s hospital room. I hardly met with other people. —

Yoo Jonghyuk still didn’t wait up. —

“A problem of the mind?”

“It seems he is refusing to wake up...perhaps he experienced a great shock.”

THIS TROPE- THIS TROPE RIGHT HERE IS SUCH A CLICHE BUT IT IS SO MEMORABLE!!!

I opened my mouth while watching Yoo Jonghyuk. “You grabbed me first and dropped me down a bridge.”

I knew he couldn’t hear me but I still wanted to talk. *insert flashbacks*

The first time I encountered him on the bridge. Suddenly a laugh emerged.

“Honestly, you aren’t in the position to blame me for anything. You are a regressor...how many people died because of you?”

How to hurt people: Emotions. What if he was awake? Like in most books with this trope? He might as well be.

Dokja: speaking to a dead body lmao

“Why did you call me a companion? You wouldn’t say that normally...stabbing me in Dark Castle...even though I told you to kill me at the time.”

{Kim Dokja? No! Kim Dokja!}

The translation is a bit iffy- but I’m just gonna let y’all read this

“Still this is weird. Why did you sell my name when hitting the wrong industrial complex? Well...maybe you were trying to fuck with me.

Everyone who read that wrong, or processed that wrong, say I.

I poured out the things I was thinking about and gradually became sleepy. I hadn’t slept properly...

In my first read, I was so shocked stoat they used this trope because it is usually used with lovers. (Trope being: A and B get in a bad argument > B gets injured and goes unconscious/in a coma > A says stuff to the unconscious body and B hears it > A falls asleep > A wakes up to B stroking his hair or smth/ A wakes up to an empty bed)

{“I will absolutely never forgive you.”} Yoo Jonghyuk turned around and spoke to me. Killing energy was emitted from the Black Demon Sword.

{“Kim Dokja.”}

I felt a coolness from my neck and woke up. I gasped while sweating before realizing it was a dream. ——

Slowly, I rubbed my eyes. Then I realized something was wrong.

“...Yoo Jonghyuk?” —

On the bed, a pocket watch with a familiar design remained.

And the left gift too- they combined the coma trope with this trope 😭.

And the nightmares about the lover blaming you trope.

Head canon: Yoo Jonghyuk was at least awake when Dokja was sleeping and heard his sleep talking. He was the one that woke Dokja up by saying his name.

I was worried. I didn’t know what the damn sunfish was doing again. My depression returned as I thought about the regressor.

Ah- this is sweet. I love angst.

I came to give a bit of advice. If you are going to remove your top every time you train, you should move to another place.] -

[It is thanks to you that the little angels’ morals are...]

Lol. He’s basically complaining and blaming Jonghyuk for the fact that his angels are major shippers-

[Your sponsor feels uncomfortable with this heterogeneous being.]

I just realized this is kind of Foreshadowing-

And M.A.D. calling Secretive Plotter ‘heterogeneous being’ makes me laugh for some reason.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 33

(- means I skipped lines)

If you f••kers read this without knowing Secretive Plotter’s identity and spoil yourself, I will murder you. Dokhyuk moments are cool but spoilers are not.

Edit:Or maybe not.

When he regained his wits, he realised that someone was grabbing his wrist. A firm, strong hand was holding his wrist, not letting it go.

And it happened to be a very familiar hand.

[Incarnation’s Yoo Joonghyuk’s Sponsor is greatly shaken up.]

Lmao (epilogue spoilers again) ⚠️⚠️ why is this bitch so surprised he already knew about this—⚠️⚠️⚠️

Past the ‘chaos’ that was endlessly ominous and impossible to determine how far it extended, a white coat exactly the same as Kim Dokja’s danced in the space.

Remember when Han Sooyoung commented on how the two idiots matching couple coats?

[Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’, is looking at the Constellation, ‘Demon King of Salvation’.]

The message landed like a final shot to confirm the kill and Yoo Joonghyuk shuddered involuntarily.

F•ck off, crazy ex

“Let go of Kim Dokja.”

Yasss protect your mans

[It’s a miracle that you managed to survive this far with such a slow head.]

“Shut up, and let go of him. Or else….”

[Or else what?] —[What exactly can you do to me?]

This gives me flashbacks-to-their-childhood-when-they-first-met-because-character-a-was-being-bullied-and-character-b-tried-to-stop-the-bully(/ies)

[You’re only at the 3rd turn. So, your end goal shouldn’t have anything to do with Kim Dokja. So, why are you so hung up on him?]

“That’s what I want to ask you.”

[In order to reach my objective, I require Kim Dokja’s presence.]

“Then, that’s my answer, too.”

Remember our sunfish’s confession to Dokja’s mom back in the Kim-Dokja-Will-Be-Killed-By-Who-He-Loves-Most arc?

[When you destroy <Star Stream>, every Constellation within it will fall. Which means this fool will die as well.]

Every time SP called Dokja a fool during my first read, I always got angry. Now that I’m rereading, I makes me angrier than before.

Shin Yoosung and Kim Dokja; Lee Gilyoung and Kim Dokja; Kim Dok-Ja fighting against other Constellations.

Kim Dokja, who sacrificed his life for his comrades.

And Kim Dokja, dying in such a wretched state like this in the end….

“Kim Dokja, he….” —

STOP- he’s thinking about Dokja with the kids oh my god I’m crying wtf.

[Ba-aht…]

Biyu’s voice came from very far away; Yoo Joonghyuk heard that voice, and slowly opened his lips. “He, the ‘Demon King of Salvation’, might be a Constellation, but….”

— “That ‘Kim Dokja’…. He isn’t a Constellation. No, he’s simply a human.”

Even though he knew that made no sense.

ANOTHER CHILD AAAAAA!! And I love how Joonghyuk is looking for excuses for his reason of keeping Dokja alive. Like- everyone knows you’re in love with him already, no need to hide it.

“I do not care how Kim Dokja of the past lived his life.” —

“What matters now is that we need him to see the end of this world.” —

“And if he needs to die, then I shall be the one to perform the deed.”

STOP THIS IS ADORABLE. ‘Only-I-Can-Hurt-You’ energy. Wait f•ck that makes it sound toxic. Whoops.

>Did I just disappear for 24 days and then posted 2 Dokhyuk Moments, both during angel number times, with no explanation whatsoever? Yes. I have audacity. You can’t stop me mwhahahahha.<

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 34

(- means I skipped lines)

(Chapter 416+)

– Author-nim. Was that a typo? How can Jung-Hyeok-ee smile brightly?

At times like this, I want to be able to read Korean to look back at the different affectionate honorifics Dokja’s used with Joonghyuk’s name before.

And then, a familiar voice came flying in my ear.

“Looks like he’s finally woken up.”

Yup, he just couldn’t be nice about it, now could he.

I smirked a little and shifted my head in the direction of the voice.

However, something…. seemed off.

“So, this fool is that Kim Dok-Ja?”

By the time I fully opened my eyes, I discovered myself surrounded by countless Yu Jung-Hyeoks.

If it was actually Yoo Joonghyuk—

Did this squid bastard really smirk upon hearing Yoo Joonghyuk’s voice and proceeded to inch towards it like a male lead in a k-drama? Yes, he did.

But heyyy the dumpling arc is almost here

Right, this had to be a dream. Right, the stress he put me under every single day had piled up and must’ve caused this horrifying delusion. That had to be it. I hurriedly slapped my cheeks, prompting the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks to speak one after the other.

Lmao

The kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [666] glared at me as if he was disappointed and turned his head away, obviously unhappy.

666 is the biggest Tsundere—

The kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [999] declared as thus, and unsheathed the miniature version of [Heaven Shaking Sword] from his back.

Following that, the kkomas numbers [888], [777], and even the number [666], they all unsheathed their weapons mounted on their backs and hips.

Kim Dokja protection squad! ٩( 'ω' )و

I took my time studying the person before my eyes. My heart rate sped up greatly, and my breathing became ragged, as well. Something touched a box of memories that shouldn’t be touched, and words began leaking out from this box buried deep within the recess of the darkness.

⸢”Where is the Arondight? Are you the one hiding it?”⸥

That was the first time I encountered that dude. While firmly holding me by my collars, he asked me that question.

His heart is beating uncontrollably at the memory of being choked by a Yoo Joonghyuk lookalike.

I failed to save Yu Jung-Hyeok of that turn. He left for the next turn, still wearing the white coat.

I had never forgotten the sight of his back, surrounded by bright light and leaving me and Han Su-Yeong of the 1863rd turn behind in complete freedom.

I just got major YooHanKim vibes…also, boyfriend’s coat.

“I’m merely treating you the way that fits with your choice to appear as Yu Jung-Hyeok.”

I appeared completely unflustered by his aura, and as if he was amused by it, the Plotter’s lips twitched slightly. Not caring whether he did or not, I simply continued on.

This reminds me of the many times I’ve read about a female lead doing something similar to this and getting the same reaction SP gave from the male lead.

“It’ll be better for you to stop doing something foolish.”

It was none other than the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [999] standing next to me who said that. I smirked and looked down at him. “Are you worried about me?”

“It’s annoying to remove a corpse, that’s all.”

I take it back, 999 was the biggest Tsundere.

That prompted the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [777] to sigh in admiration and speak up. “He sure talks a lot, doesn’t he.”

“I wasn’t talking to you.”

Dokja is a brat.

“Yu Jung-Hyeok doesn’t wear the colour white often.”

[…Ask your next question]

SP either felt extremely creeped out, jealous that Dokja knew Yjh so well, or felt uncomfortable. Or he was internally screaming about how dense Dokja was.

“Sounds like you’ve been rehearsing that answer for a while there. It sounds so natural, too. Even if I assume that you’re being truthful, quite unfortunately for you, you seemed less than satisfied after I succeeded in my mission. Also, you looked quite surprised, too.”

[….Ask your next question.]

Yet again. SP was probably so creeped out at how well Dokja could read him 😭

“My Stigma, ‘Regression’, doesn’t send the items I possess alongside me when I regress. Meaning, there’s no reason for him to be wearing that coat.”

“Maybe, he likes the white colour?”

“I detest the colour white.”

This is beautiful

Yu Jung-Hyeok nodded his head. “It was as if that bastard was mocking me.”

“Mocking you?”

“It was as if he deliberately wore that coat.”

In other words, Yoo Joonghyuk thought Secretive Plotter was trying to show off his boyfriend’s coat…

Also, I don’t know if I’ve said this before but I’m going to say it again. Yoo Joonghyuk taking Dokja’s coat and then dying right after partakes Patroclus wearing Achilles’s armor to battle and dying.

Lmao and I decided to post 3 pats in a row, all during angel number times mainly because of the kkommas.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 35

( — means I skipped lines)

(Chapter 419+)

“You’re going on about that ‘one’ again?”

⸢Everything was one, to begin with, so what does it matter if there are two or more Yoo Joonghyuk’s? Becoming one with all the Yoo Joonghyuks is the utmost important providence of the cosmos…..!⸥

Yup, it was my fault to ask this idiot in the first place.

This is like watching someone get relationship advice from his single friends.

[Constellation, ‘Demon King of Salvation’, is calling the Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’.]

If the bastard didn’t want to meet me, then….

[Constellation, ‘Demon King of Salvation’, is looking at the Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’.]

Then, until he looked at me again.

[Constellation, ‘Demon King of Salvation’, is throwing a temper tantrum in the Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’s’ direction.]

Yup, I just needed to annoy him.

[Constellation, ‘Demon King of Salvation’, is….]

[Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’, is glaring at you.]

I know this isn’t our Yoo Jonghyuk but…awe

“Why are you looking at that thing? Were you playing a mobile game?”

I got up from the bed and quickly snatched the phone away from the unguarded hands of this idiot.

Yu Joonghyuk’s original profession was the ‘Pro Gamer’, so it wouldn’t be all that strange for him to play a game of some k..

….Eh?

“Give it back to me this instant!!”

[666] leaped up and smacked me in the waist while roaring out in anger. I simply stared at the display in pure stupefaction, though.

Again, I know this isn’t our Yoo Jonghyuk but…666 crusty iPad kid.

[Forgetaboutfoolslikehimandchooseanewleader (You have exceeded the word length input limit.)]

I love this

“It’s merely my turn today! Give up the device immediately or I’ll kill you, Kim Dokja!!”

The deeply-blushing kkoma Yoo Joonghyuk number [666] held the [Heaven Shaking Sword] tightly and panted angrily. Only then did I finally figure out something that I failed to understand until now.

…for the third time, I know this isn’t our Yoo Joonghyuk but…that’s cute

“Name the type of food you hate.”

“Why, all of a sudden?”

“Shut up and answer the question.”

I was momentarily overwhelmed by the little guy’s force. “….It’s tomato.”

I hate tomato too 😃

“What about your favourite food?”

“…..Murim dumplings with chicken broth.”

My answer prompted a change of expressions in [999]’s face. “Looks like your tongue knows its stuff.”

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

She looked around wondering what was going on here, only to discover the stupefied Yoo Joonghyuk continually poking the TV remote. He rewound the footage several times and repeated it over and over again.

Han Sooyoung asked him. “…..Hey, are you alright?”

“…..”

Now this is our Yoo Joonghyuk. He’s adorable.

He didn’t even pretend to hear her. His eyes burned scarily as if he wanted to engrave the appearance of the ‘Secretive Plotter’ in them. The Status of the Regressor who refused to accept his defeat oozed out from him and made the air in the living room rather stuffy and hot.

A d o r a b l e

—, my entire body seemed to be wrapped in this cold air. The kkoma number [999] took off his black coat and placed it over my shoulders.

I know this isn’t our Yoo Jonghyuk (part 4) but…｡ﾟ(ﾟ´ω`ﾟ)ﾟ｡

I wasn’t sure what I could say back to him here. [999]’s eyes trembled.

“….You fool.”

[Oh-ooooooh!]

*epilogue flashbacks

“….Have you heard any new information, Master?”

The Breaking the Sky Saint shook her head.

It had been over a week since Kim Dokja’s disappearance.

I love how Yoo Joonghyuk is so worried about his Dokja…

[Ba-aht….]

Biyoo murmured in despondency from somewhere in the empty air. Yoo Joonghyuk silently stared at her for a little while, —

Father Daughter bonding time :D

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 38

79 days…I have no excuses

I also lost my spot so I may have skipped some moments for this part

I’m doing this in a bit of a rush so I won’t be able to change the name romanization, so please bear with.

( - means I skipped some parts (I skip a lot here))

The scene on the screen showed a man wearing a white coat floating in the jet-black sky, with Kim Dok-Ja dangling off that man’s arm.

– Breaking news! <Kim Dok-Ja Company>’s president kidnapped!

Han Su-Yeong’s jaw dropped to the floor as she muttered softly. “….What the heck is that?”

For some unfathomable reason, the Earth’s media had found out about that event. Yi Su-Gyeong and her rather relaxed expression stared at the screen for a little while, then she nodded her head. “That boy. He’s still so popular.”

“Ahjumma?! Don’t you get that it’s a pretty serious problem??”

“But, he looks like Yu Jung-Hyeok-gun. So, what can be a serious problem?”

“Because, that’s not the ‘Yu Jung-Hyeok’. That’s the problem.”

- Gun: Used sparingly for occasions of extreme formality, such as weddings, it is usually used after the first name or the full name. Being used exclusively and exclusively for men, mostly the host.

I love Dokja’s mom-

Han Su-Yeong spat out a groan. But then, the TV’s screen suddenly rewound itself back and the exact same footage played out again.

– Breaking news! <Kim Dok-Ja Company>’s president kidnapped!

She looked around wondering what was going on here, only to discover the stupefied Yu Jung-Hyeok continually poking the TV remote. He rewound the footage several times and repeated it over and over again.

Han Su-Yeong asked him. “…..Hey, are you alright?”

“…..”

“You won’t regress even if your rewind that, you know? Did you even forget how to go back now?”

He didn’t even pretend to hear her. His eyes burned scarily as if he wanted to engrave the appearance of the ‘Secretive Plotter’ in them.

Jealousy Jealousy~

Maybe because it was directly after witnessing something truly shocking, my entire body seemed to be wrapped in this cold air. The kkoma number [999] took off his black coat and placed it over my shoulders.

“I only remember telling you to read a book, so why did you have to provoke them?”

I wasn’t sure what I could say back to him here. [999]’s eyes trembled.

“….You fool.”

For some reason, I feel live I’ve been repeating…did I already post this moment? Wait imma go check. Yeah I’m an idiot.

⸢…..I already knew.⸥

That was Yu Jung-Hyeok.

Of course you did-

It was then she heard the Wenny King’s laughter resound out as it battled the Great Dokkaebis. [It’s too late. He now belongs to the ‘Great Plotter’.]

Kinky

“I still have too many things I haven’t told you yet!”

Or, when she was cooking the hunted game with Jung-Hyeok ahjussi. —

When she ate ice cream with Yi Gil-Yeong and read a manhwa, knowing that the follow-up volume would never be released….

“I, really…..”

If only ahjussi was also in those memories.

“So many things….”

‘I’m not wishing for many things’ – she simply couldn’t say those words.

“I just wanted to be normal….”

This is such a touching scene- the apocalypse gave Yoosung so many opportunities yet it ruined them as well. I want to see a world where Dokja and Joonghyuk get together and raise the kids.

Also, the sight of the emo bastard and Yoosung cooking together is so cute my heart is gonna melt.

As if he was under a spell, Yu Jung-Hyeok grasped the [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword]. It felt so natural in his hand, as if it had been his since a long time ago. And he picked the coat up from the debris as well. It was white, the colour he disliked.

Ohohohoho

Yu Jung-Hyeok slowly opened his eyes gleaming in golden light and spoke back to me. ‘You’re late.’

He didn’t get angry or reprimanded me, simply choosing to say that.

He probably knew that I was playing the role of Sun Wukong, though….

⸢I’m sorry.⸥

‘Talk about unimportant matters later. Defeating this bastard takes our utmost priority.’

“You’re Late” is always so nice to hear in scenarios like this-

As he staggered about, fragmented memories continued to enter his head.

⸢”Eat dirt, Yu Jung-Hyeok.”⸥

⸢”Happy memories! Happy memories!”⸥

⸢”Yu Jung-Hyeok, sit.”⸥

“You son of a…..”

⸢This isn’t the time to think about that, you idiot!⸥

BAHAHA PLS I LOVE HOW YJH’S MAIN FOCUS IS THE FACT THAT DOKJA TRATED HIM LIKE A DOG WHEN HES LITERALLY ABOUT TO DIE

[1863rd turn’s ‘Yu Jung-Hyeok’ is refusing to cooperate with you.]

⸢”I wish to live.”⸥

Not to romanticize this behavior or anything but I wish someone would be my reason to live like Dokja is to Joonghyuk. Vie Versa too.

‘Stop with your unnecessary thoughts. And don’t stupidly sympathise with him, either,’ said Yu Jung-Hyeok. ‘Are you planning to yield to some random bastard after you came this far? Was the Fable you managed to compile so far created solely by copying that bastard’s life?’

I couldn’t reply.

‘If you sympathise with what he says, then it’s the same thing as denying the lives of your comrades who fought alongside you.’

I always enjoy it when yjh talks some sense into Dokja. It’s refreshing.

Yu Jung-Hyeok continued to speak. ‘He could be right. His decisions might have been right, too. However, it’s still not a good enough reason for you to yield to him.’

[Fable, ‘Comrade of Life and Death’, has begun its storytelling.]

‘Because, we are also right,’ said Yu Jung-Hyeok, the one who also endured the tragedies of the 1863 regression turns. Without a doubt, he too was also ‘Yu Jung-Hyeok’. ‘It still doesn’t really feel real to me, but if I have been truly experiencing the 1864th turn, then….’

—

‘Most likely, I came here to witness this sight.’

Pls- yjh literally came to this round to see Dokja. Also. “We” ;-;

Maybe thinking that victory was in the bag now, the ‘Secretive Plotter’ leisurely asked a question. [[I’m curious. The puppet of the ‘Most Ancient Dream’, what is the conclusion you wish to see?]]

“And why should I answer you?”

[[Could it be that it’s the same thing as that ‘Demon King of Salvation’? Do you honestly believe that man?]] —

Yu Jung-Hyeok took a step back while wiping the blood off his lips.

This feels like…a friend lecturing their friend about their boyfriend.

[[You have no idea. No idea how pathetic that ‘comrade’ you trust so much actually is. You don’t know what the ‘conclusion’ of the world he wishes for is.]]

The ‘Secretive Plotter’ faintly grinned as he rained down his [Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship].

[[When this world-line opened for the first time, Kim Dok-Ja’s goal was to merely ‘survive’.]]

⸢I dazedly raised my head and looked at Yu Sang-Ah. Quite likely, this woman will die. And so will I.⸥ —

[[His next goal was to…. To become stronger by using you.]]

⸢”Make me your comrade. I can fill in the part you lack.”⸥

⸢Yu Jung-Hyeok is definitely necessary in order to clear the numerous scenarios still remaining in the future. ⸢ —

Meanwhile, the Plotter continued on. [[After that, well. After he found himself with a little bit of leeway, he even dared to dream of this ‘world’s conclusion’.]]

⸢”Hyung, aren’t you going to make a wish for something?”

⸱⸱ I quietly stared at Yi Gil-Yeong for a little while before making my reply.

⸱⸱ “I made a wish to see the epilogue of a certain novel.”⸥ —

[[Kim Dok-Ja began dreaming the same thing that I used to dream about once upon a time. He wanted to destroy the heaven’s <Star Stream>, and destroy the world beyond the ‘Wall’ that I couldn’t overcome. He wanted to save every one of his comrades, and even….]]

He continued to speak. [[Kim Dok-Ja will not achieve that goal now. Specifically, he won’t be able to.]]

I wanted to ask why he thought that.

[‘The 4th Wall’ is faintly shaking.]

[[A Fable could be made up, but it’ll never tell a lie.]] —

[[….Because, you do not hate the Constellations.]] —

[[You do not wish for any ‘loss’ to occur to this world-line. Because you grew to love this story. And that is why….]] As if he was putting a full-stop on the story, the ‘Secretive Plotter’ declared loudly. [[….You shall never witness this world’s ■■.]]

Yu Jung-Hyeok remained wordless. The raindrops falling on the Tongtian River substituted for any spoken words.

I wanted to say something, anything.

But before I could open my mouth, though, someone else stole the opportunity away.

“So? What is it that you’re trying to say here?” It was Yu Jung-Hyeok. “Since Kim Dok-Ja doesn’t have the qualification, you will see this world’s ■■ in his stead, is that it?”

A faint crease formed on the forehead of the ‘Secretive Plotter’. [[It seems that you can’t think straight anymore. That man whom you thought of as your comrade is no different to the Constellations that you hate. That bastard is….]]

“….He’s a pathetic fool, indeed.” Yu Jung-Hyeok cut him off in the middle. “He was just some contracted worker for a no-name game developer, and his hobby was reading novels.”

His shabby self-introduction-like words reverberated around the sky.

Those were the things I told Yu Jung-Hyeok some time ago.

“His specialty is to run his cocky mouth off, and he has this habit of throwing his life away so that we can overcome any and all impossible situations hindering us.”

Yu Jung-Hyeok was talking about me that even I didn’t know about.

“Someone like that managed to lead his companions this far.” —

“Regardless of what the incoming conclusion is, this world wouldn’t have come this far without him around.”

[[You don’t know anyt….!!]]

“It seems to me that you’re the one who can’t think straight here. Why are you interfering with this world-line, then?”

This is so long- Um…I love how yjh came into defend Dokja like that. He called Dokja a pathetic fool and a sacrificial no-name random bastard as well. Gives me “no one can make fun of you but me” vibes. He proceeded to tell the tale of Dokja- a version of a tale that even Dokja wasn’t sure of. I mean- describing people in a way that even they don’t recognize is pretty hard. And then he basically told Secretive Plotter to mind his own business .

The wrathful [Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship] mowed the darkness down. The Plotter’s figure wavered around greatly as he was pushed back.

Not missing that small opening, Yu Jung-Hyeok’s sword rained down like a raging storm.

“What is your goal, anyway? If you found Kim Dok-Ja an eyesore, why didn’t you kill him earlier? If you found him using your life to survive that disgusting, then….”

The [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] was now aiming at the neck of the ‘Secretive Plotter’.

[Constellation, ‘Secretive Plotter’, is glaring at the Incarnation, ‘Yu Jung-Hyeok’.]

The moment when the two gazes collided, Yu Jung-Hyeok asked again.

“Why are you still watching this story?”

Oh periodt. Present bf confronting crazy ex.

something that really resonates with me is how Secretive Plotter had ONE situationship and he proceeded to think about that situationship for years and admired them from afar for years and-

girls when they bring out the dark and gloomy protagonist who is actually the most optimistic character in the cast

if you sort the tag “Throne Sex” by kudos, the third fic is an orv one

I can't believe Secretive Plotter abandoned the burgeoning band AU project to go have a kid and start a family. Bro, think of the limelight!!!!! My guy went domestic 😔

His first supporters

Happy birthday to the one and only sunfish bastard Yoo Joonghyuk. Our (former) regressor, the spacefarer, supreme king, conquering king, puppet of the oldest dream, (I cannot spell his name) Kaixenix, the punisher, breaking the sky sword beauty, 33 unemployed, the one who ate dirt, etc etc etc…
