[the constellation 'abyssal black flame dragon' is throwing a tantrum.]
Ugh, what did he want now?
[the constellation 'abyssal black flame dragon' is tired of talking about the incarnation 'kim dokja' and wants to see the incarnation 'han sooyoung' instead.]
The author shot Kim Dokja a victorious look, but Kim Dokja didn't particularly care. In the end, only one of them was stooping low enough for the approval of the chuuni dragon, so who was the real loser here?
Besides, it wasn't their conversation about him that was important in the first place. No, what was important was seeing that the kids were surviving against all odds.
Jihye pulls an oddly blank look as she tries to remember Dokja's face, noting that she took the 'ugliness' as a fact since people kept repeating it, and because constellations would give her coins for saying it. As Jihye tries—and struggles significantly—to attempt to describe his face, the 'lovely' MS-paintja reappears in full force.
As she talks in circles, Jihye's confused thoughts play out: 'Come to think of it, what part of him was ugly? What did he even look like anyways, why can't I remember clearly? His face… it always looked like it was obscured… no, it was like…. something that wasn't even created yet? Why, though? Why couldn't his face appear clearly?'
Brushing the existentialism of Dokja's face aside, Jihye stutters as she states that he certainly wasn't her type. When Yoosung points out Jihye's excessive tears at the funeral, Jihye attempts to cover it by saying that she was just acting for coins. Ignoring the constellations' doubt and Yoosung lecturing her about how people are more than their faces, Jihye grits her teeth as she tightens her hold on the sword, wishing she could have paid Dokja back, or even ask if he had ever thought that she was helpful.
Kim Dokja's jaw dropped in shock as the teenager basically admitted to taking bribes from the constellations to call him ugly. Seriously? What constellations were that petty, huh?
"Jihye-yah, that's not very polite, you know," Yoo Sangah said, sounding disappointed, which caused the teenager to flinch.
"Well, um, they haven't really done it much yet, so…" Lee Jihye stammered, looking everywhere except for the older woman. However, her gaze kept anxiously going back to Yoo Joonghyuk, who didn't look particularly pleased either. Considering his strong hatred of the constellations, he definitely wasn't impressed by her behaviour.
[the constellation 'lily blooming in aquarius' is disappointed in the conduct of certain constellations.]
[some constellations are greatly amused by this turn of events.]
Kim Dokja sighed, realizing that he probably had to interfere here. "It's fine, really. Since we all know it's not true, she's basically just scamming the constellations out of their coins."
It was definitely hard to keep a straight face when that utterly horrific wobbly image of him popped back up on the screen, though. It was so bad. Still, Kim Dokja persevered, and Yoo Sangah shook her head with a sigh.
"If you say so, Dokja-ssi."
[the constellation 'secretive plotter' is narrowing his eyes curiously at the words of the incarnation 'lee jihye'.]
"Unnie, your memory is really bad," Shin Yoosung remarked bluntly, causing Lee Jihye to gasp in affront.
Well, maybe it wasn't all her memory. The blurriness definitely didn't help, but the way she was describing it was strange, to say the least.
Lee Hyunsung tilted his head to the side in confusion. "What do you mean by that? I know that Dokja-ssi's face was blurry, but…"
"Um, when you look at ahjussi, he's kinda blurry, right?" she paused for a second, wincing slightly. "Or, well, he was. Whatever. He was blurry, sorta like if you had too many filters on, but when you looked closer, it was like he had a nothing face…?"
A what?
"I'm not sure I understand…" Lee Hyunsung muttered, scratching the back of his neck as he glanced over at Jung Heewon, only for the woman to shake her head in confusion too.
Lee Jihye looked around nervously for a second. "I don't know, it felt like I only saw a face because I expected to see one…?"
[the constellation 'prisoner of the golden headband' doesn't like complicated things.]
Lee Seolhwa, however, hummed thoughtfully. "In other words, you think that Dokja-ssi's face was so obscured that his face was almost like a blank slate, and that it required our minds to fill in what we assumed his basic features to look like."
Kim Dokja had no idea what she was talking about at all, but if she was really mentally filling out his features, then wasn't it her fault that she thought he was ugly and not her type? Not that he wanted to be her type in any way since she was over a decade younger than him, but Kim Dokja was frustrated—she could imagine literally anything, so why would she have to imagine something unattractive, huh? Or had spending time with Yoo Joonghyuk just raised her standards so high that her own imagination couldn't even keep up?
As Lee Jihye tried to protest and claim that she wasn't sad about Kim Dokja's death, though, Jung Heewon snickered. "Don't lie, now. You were pleading for Joonghyuk-ssi to somehow revive him, and those robbers said that you went back to his grave a lot."
Lee Jihye went beet red and groaned loudly into her hands as she hid behind them. It was kind of nice that someone else was getting the short end of the stick this time, but Kim Dokja also felt bad for her. That feeling only increased as she wondered whether or not she was ever useful to him, and he sucked in a breath. That was… a feeling he was extremely familiar with.
I wanted to tell him all of that.
As Jihye's voice narrates, the image of Dokja snapping her out of her trauma back in the theater dungeon reappears. A ding interrupts her thoughts, revealing the awful truth—the barrier will only hold for a minute longer.
Keeping her voice level, the teenager addresses Yoosung and instructs the girl to carry Gilyoung and run when she gives the signal. Jihye knows that sacrificing herself like this is unlike her, but this is the person she wants to become, and it's all because of a certain dead man. As the barrier disappears, Jihye draws her sword and yells for the younger girl to run and get help before she dies while holding off the demons. She knows that Yoosung might not be able to find help, but she also knows that this is the only thing she can say to get the two kids to leave and survive a little longer.
With the barrier gone, the demons advance, growling and licking their chops as saliva drips down their chins in anticipation. A drop of blood hits the ground as the sound of Yoosung's steps fades into the distance. All around, blood and bodies of demons litter the ground. In the middle, the viscount holds Jihye up by her neck and torso, with minimal wounds visible on his body. Coughing up blood, Jihye's vision goes fuzzy and her hearing turns tinny as she laments that this is how she'll die, her thoughts sounding sad as she desperately wants to live.
[the constellation 'maritime war god' is looking at his incarnation sadly.]
"Jihye-yah," Kim Dokja said quietly, "you're doing more than I could ask for. Thank you for looking out for the kids."
Lee Jihye didn't say anything in return, and Kim Dokja pretended that he didn't hear her sniffle. She wouldn't want for anyone to point out that she was getting emotional, especially as they all realized that the barrier was almost about to disappear.
Han Sooyoung stared blankly at the screen as Lee Jihye instructed Shin Yoosung to run before turning to look at the girl judgmentally. "It's fine to admire that asshole or some shit, but holy fuck, find better role models. Don't fucking imitate his unique brand of stupidity."
Kim Dokja rolled his eyes. She was Yoo Joonghyuk's disciple too, and that was also something that he would have done in certain rounds. Han Sooyoung just didn't understand Yoo Joonghyuk like he did.
[the constellation 'queen of the darkest spring' is shaking her head solemnly.]
[the constellation 'demon-like judge of fire' is saddened yet touched by the decision of the incarnation 'lee jihye'.]
Lee Gilyoung looked over at her nervously. "Noona, you're not allowed to die! Stop doing this!"
Fuck, now that Kim Dokja thought about it, this happened to her far too often for comfort. He was proud of her for defending the kids and doing everything she could to save them, but in the end, she shouldn't have to be the one making that kind of choice. Lee Jihye was only seventeen, only around six years older than the other kids, and it wouldn't be a bad thing for her to still have the chance to be a teenager for a while longer.
"You did your best," Yoo Joonghyuk said firmly as he watched her send the children off. "No matter what happens here, remember that."
Lee Jihye let out a broken sob, and Kim Dokja didn't even have to urge the kids before they were on their feet and rushing over to her again. Without wasting a second, Shin Yoosung and Lee Gilyoung clung to Lee Jihye like they needed her more than she needed them at that moment.
Yoo Mia stayed with her brother, looking extremely anxious, and Kim Dokja instantly realized why. With the city of Seoul in chaos below the castle, and the situation inside being so dire, she had to be panicking as she wondered what had happened to her. Though she was holding herself together remarkably well, it was obvious to him that she was barely managing it. Lee Jihye's distress distracting her was probably the only thing keeping Yoo Mia from being consumed by her own thoughts.
[many constellations are looking sadly at the incarnation 'lee jihye'.]
"Fuck," Jung Heewon whispered as she glared viciously at the screen. "Where the hell are we?"
Lee Jihye looked awful, though she seemed to have put up a decent fight, considering the corpses littering the ground. She had done everything she could, and the kids were holding onto her with everything they had too.
Kim Dokja felt so proud of her for fighting until she literally couldn't anymore, but fuck, he didn't want this to be her end. She deserved to make it to the epilogue he wanted to write. Yoo Joonghyuk was suppressing his emotions as much as he could, but it was obvious to Kim Dokja that he was bracing himself for losing her yet again.
[the constellation 'maritime war god' is desperately hoping for someone to help his incarnation.]
There isn't a lake nearby, and she hadn't even been able to get in contact with her sponsor for a few days now. She had fought hard, desperately slicing at the demons with all her strength even as she gradually weakened. Unfortunately, one of them had hit her on the back of her head, and she had gotten caught. When the viscount raises his fist to deal the final blow, her thoughts drift.
It feels like something similar to this happened before….
A flash of Ghostja in Chungmuro appears before it's replaced by Noslocke's fist rapidly approaching her head.
How did it go back then…?
Suddenly, a bright light reflects in Jihye's teary eyes. The light crackles with electricity as a hole is blown clear through both of the viscount's arms. With a pained roar, the viscount drops Jihye, and a figure in white leaps out to perform an axe kick that sends the demon crashing to the floor.
Kim Dokja sucked in a breath, remembering that she had done all of this without any help from [Ghost Fleet]. Though, if she couldn't get in contact with her sponsor, was it because he was still busy dealing with the aftermath of the banquet? Had he been injured by the Outer God?
[the constellation 'secretive plotter' is assuring the incarnation 'lee jihye' that she fought well.]
Yoo Sangah looked distraught as Lee Jihye made the connection back to the attack on Chungmuro, and she clearly blamed herself for not being able to help yet again. Han Sooyoung glanced away awkwardly, not wanting to say anything since that had been her fault. At least that time, Yoo Joonghyuk had been nearby to help her, but now they had no idea where he could be.
"I hope we'll be able to check for a concussion after this," Lee Seolhwa said, hiding the trembling in her voice. "You won't be able to fight well if you have one, and you'll have to take some time to rest and recover."
Though it wasn't much, it made Lee Jihye look up at her with wide eyes. Just the talk of 'after', and of recovery, was such a massive show of faith that everything would be alright, even in this kind of situation.
"Yeah," Lee Jihye said between sobs. "Yeah, that sounds ok."
Despite that, everyone held their breaths as the demon went in for the finishing blow. Kim Dokja couldn't blame anyone who chose to look away, not wanting to see anything like that happen right in front of their eyes.
[the constellation 'demon-like judge of fire' is distraught.]
[the constellation 'maritime war god' is begging for his incarnation's survival.]
[the constellation 'prisoner of the golden headband' is sighing sadly.]
But then, before the worst could happen, Kim Dokja gasped as a crackle of electricity rushed towards her. That was—
"Ahjussi really came," Yoo Mia whispered, but the room was so quiet that everyone heard it anyway.
The sudden relief that overcame everyone was palpable, and there were very few dry eyes. Lee Jihye sobbed shamelessly into the kids' embrace, and they cried onto her shoulders right back. The tension left Yoo Sangah's body so quickly that she actually ended up slumping over, only avoiding falling to the ground because of Han Sooyoung catching her. Though the woman scoffed and pretended to look irritated by this, Kim Dokja could tell that she was relieved too. Jung Heewon and Lee Hyunsung supported each other, but while she was taking deep breaths to calm herself, she was also patting his back as he cried.
Lee Seolhwa wiped a tear from her eye as she shot a grateful smile in Kim Dokja's direction, and he had to return it, happy that she had been able to give the girl just a bit more hope before she was rescued. Though Kim Dokja didn't look over at her, he desperately hoped that she had some degree of emotion crossing her usually impassive face. It didn't matter that Lee Jihye may not be anything but a character in her eyes, but Kim Dokja wouldn't be able to forgive her if she was able to see a teenager—a child—beaten and bruised and bloody the way that he had been once upon a time and still feel nothing.
However, it was Yoo Joonghyuk who Kim Dokja watched the most through his blurred vision. The protagonist was cradling his sister in his arms, but his gaze was locked on the screen. His eyes were wide and shaking, and if he looked close enough, Kim Dokja could see that his hands were too. No matter how much he had tried to suppress his emotions to prepare for the worst, not even Yoo Joonghyuk could completely shut them off at this point. Other than Lee Jihye herself, he was likely the person who was the most relieved in the entire group.
[the constellation 'maritime war god' is thanking the incarnation 'kim dokja' for saving his incarnation.]
He couldn't say anything, not right now, but he hoped that the constellation could see in his eyes that he'd do it again and again if he had to—though ideally she wouldn't end up in that situation anymore in the future.
From where she landed, Jihye shakily looks up to watch the pummeling, her eyes widening as she finally realises who her savior is. When Dokja, who's going in and out of focus in her eyes, finally turns to face her, his voice is muffled heavily and still tinny—she likely has a concussion.
He's saying something… But what is he saying? I want to hear him. I want to see his face.
As Dokja finally approaches her, calling her name, he comes into complete focus for a brief moment. Gone is all the blurriness, leaving only a man whose eyes hold the universe within their confines. As she faints, Jihye smiles as she wonders if that's what he always looked like. In the last moments of consciousness, she hears the ding of a notification, telling her that the constellation who does not yet have a name is looking at her.
"It's okay," Lee Gilyoung sobbed, "hyung is there now."
Kim Dokja would do his best to ensure that it would be alright. And, since he was a constellation now, this guy shouldn't pose any challenge at all.
Lee Seolhwa sighed as she watched Lee Jihye's perspective, and shook her head. "You definitely have a concussion. Dokja-ssi, do you know how to deal with those?"
Ah, well… "Technically, yes?"
[the constellation 'guam divine doctor' is reminding the incarnation 'kim dokja' that this is a yes or no question.]
"Yes, I do know," Kim Dokja replied with a sigh. He'd had to learn when he was pretty young, after all, but just because he knew what should be done didn't mean that he ever actually did any of it. Knowing himself, Kim Dokja would probably just give her a healing item and call it a day. Now that he was a constellation, he wouldn't have to hide using the dokkaebi bag behind ads, at the very least.
However, before he could go any further down that train of thought, his eyes widened in surprise as Lee Jihye saw his face—his real face—for a single instant.
"Huh?" the teenager wondered, blinking away her tears and sniffing to clear her nose. "How?"
Kim Dokja had no idea either. It was like she had wanted to see him so badly that the universe itself had answered her prayer, and he couldn't understand how that was possible.
[the constellation 'secretive plotter' is pleased to see a non-blurry version of the face of the incarnation 'kim dokja' in the recording.]
[many constellations are feeling extremely touched by the current events.]
For some reason, though, Yoo Joonghyuk's brow was twitching in irritation. He had said that Kim Dokja's face was good though, right? He couldn't be annoyed just because of seeing his face… As he looked on in confusion, Yoo Mia sighed and shook her head in disappointment, for whatever reason.
Unfortunately, before he could get any answers, Lee Jihye fainted and the screen went dark.
When Jihye finally awakens, finding herself leaning against the wall, she asks if the messages from earlier about a new constellation were referring to Dokja. When the man evades her gaze while agreeing, she moves on to asking if he got stronger after becoming a constellation since the rhino monster was really tough. When Dokja explains that he borrowed fables to kill Noslocke, his narration returns.
Normally, killing one of the demon species would mean opposing the 'Demon King' that it served, but things are different in this scenario. All demon species appearing in the 'Dark Castle Scenario' were those that were waiting for their new 'Master'. There weren't any Demon Kings that would get particularly angry after killing them.
As Dokja looks at the
A halo with wings briefly appears over Dokja's head while a church choir sings the words 'Absolute Divinity'.
This is the effect of [Messiah's Path]. I borrowed this fable from Eden since it's especially effective against the demon species.
[the constellation 'maritime war god' is very relieved to see that his incarnation is okay.]
[the constellation 'god of wine and ecstasy' is proposing a toast.]
"Yeah, that's a good question, actually," Jung Heewon admitted after a moment. "You didn't even use a sword there."
Ah, that would be because he wouldn't want to just leave it with his corpse. Clearly, considering the grave robbers, that had been the right decision.
Thankfully, his future self explained only a moment later that he was borrowing a fable to give him a boost. Though most people looked confused by that, Kim Dokja had no doubts that his future self would explain it sooner or later. Plus, they were all feeling emotionally exhausted, and he didn't know if they'd even process any of it at that point.
"Right," Han Sooyoung said after a moment, "are you saying that this is a demon free for all and none of these fuckers are going to get us cursed!?"
"That's exactly what I'm saying," Kim Dokja replied, though internally he was a bit confused. Dark Castle had absolutely happened in the earlier regressions, so why did she not already know that? Had she forgotten somehow? Now that he thought about it, Kim Dokja had no idea when she had actually started reading the novel. Even with a memory enhancement skill and her own novel, it was possible that she had read those parts of TWSA so long ago that she was forgetting things.
[many constellations are excited to see a demon slaughter.]
[the constellation 'abyssal black flame dragon' is roaring in excitement.]
"You may have gone a bit overboard in the eyes of the Star Stream, but I'd say it was justified," Yoo Sangah remarked firmly. "Any good person would be furious after seeing the kids in that state."
But Kim Dokja wasn't a good person. He was just acting on instinct there, nothing more. It hadn't been a decision he had made because it was the right thing to do.
The next moment, he got a notification, and Kim Dokja sighed. Of course he had borrowed that fable, considering where he was. No wonder he was practically one-shotting demons—he was literally hitting them with Eden's divine power.
[the constellation 'demon-like judge of fire' is delighted by the current events.]
[the constellation 'scribe of heaven' is nodding approvingly.]
As Eden requests payment for the use of the fable, the image of the halo quickly dissolves and Dokja begrudgingly does a cross symbol in the air while mentally explaining that he just has to draw the cross to prevent arguments about plagiarism, and that he has Uriel to thank for being able to borrow the fable in the first place. Having not received any of this information, Jihye looks at him weirdly while hesitantly asking if he became religious.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shoots through her shoulder, causing her to yelp. Apologizing, Jihye calls her state terrible for the so-called tenth strongest in Seoul. Dokja explains that this is going to be her hardest time, and that things will get better soon before promptly resetting her dislocated shoulder with barely any time for preparation on her part. This is proven when the girl dumbfoundedly says 'huh?', before screaming as a sickening crack is heard as her shoulder snaps back into place.
As Jihye nurses her shoulder with tears in her eyes, Dokja muses about using
"So, in order to borrow the story, you just have to do one thing?" Lee Hyunsung asked, looking curious. "That's convenient."
It really was, and it sucked that borrowing stories was a privilege reserved only for constellations. Then again, it would get very chaotic if incarnations could do it too.
[the constellation 'demon-like judge of fire' is very happy that she was able to help.]
She was so sweet, truly an angel. Of course, Kim Dokja wasn't exactly thrilled by having to make the sign of the cross either, but it would save him a world of trouble. There was no way he wanted to get into a copyright dispute with Eden, of all nebulas, and certainly not when he was a fledgeling constellation.
"Please be careful, Jihye-yah," Lee Seolhwa sighed. "Dokja-ssi is going to have to set your shoulder."
"That's gonna hurt, right?" Yoo Mia asked her brother, and he nodded. He'd gotten enough dislocated shoulders, wrists, and many other joints over the course of TWSA, and even by the 3rd regression, he was very familiar with it.
"It will, but only for a moment," Yoo Joonghyuk replied, and that seemed to thankfully reduce the anxiety present on Lee Jihye's face. She'd be fine. Kim Dokja had been resetting his own shoulders for years, so he definitely knew what he was doing, even if he wasn't as used to doing it on other people.
[the constellation 'guam divine doctor' is hoping that the incarnation 'lee jihye' will rest now.]
She definitely needed it, and since Kim Dokja was going to buy her a healing item that required sleep to work, she'd be getting it without question.
However, when Kim Dokja mused that he had forced Han Sooyoung into a contract, she groaned. "Fuck you and your shitty-ass contracts. You're the actual worst. What, do you think I'd just run off with your stuff, huh?"
"Yes," Kim Dokja replied bluntly, not even needing to think as she sputtered in rage. She'd probably consider it payment for her services in killing him, and that was exactly why a contract was required. Yoo Joonghyuk didn't look pleased about that whatsoever, but then again, when did he look pleased with anything most of the time anyway?
[a few constellations are flustered at the reminder that the incarnation 'kim dokja' has been cheating the whole time.]
It's not cheating, it's finding loopholes to make things fair.
"Ahjussi, you suck," Lee Jihye mumbled as he thanked her for crying at his funeral. "Don't make jokes about that."
What? It was a serious thing. For basically all of his life, Kim Dokja hadn't expected anyone to care enough to cry over him like that. It was nice, despite the circumstances. She hadn't been the only one either, and that was very touching.
Still, he wasn't going to say that out loud, so Kim Dokja just sighed. "Sure, whatever."
"Ahjussi…?" Yoosung's voice hesitantly calls out as the girl returns with Gilyoung, and Dokja feels a warm sensation as he gets a notification that his incarnation is looking at him. It takes a moment before her eyes are completely filled with tears, and Yoosung unceremoniously drops the unconscious Gilyoung to leap into Dokja's arms. When he sees her crying, Dokja wonders if this is what parents feel like. As he apologizes to her for being late, she cries and declares that he was late by a whole week.
If it wasn't for this feeling, I wouldn't have been able to come here immediately. A week... Unfortunately, I resurrected later than I planned.
Dokja looks up darkly, his gaze seeming to follow a gust of wind. The wind howls through the halls of Dark Castle, swirling until it reaches a woman laying on the ground in the middle of another room full of corpses. Huffing in exhaustion and pain, Sooyoung curses Dokja for not appearing after a full week.
All of a sudden, Shin Yoosung looked over at him with wide eyes, sparkling with hope and joy. "I came back."
It was just like her, wasn't it? Though she likely hadn't managed to find help, she had still decided to come back to try and help Lee Jihye in any way she could. She was a good person, all the way to her core.
However, Lee Gilyoung looked at her in betrayal and pinched her side when her future self literally dropped him to run over to Kim Dokja.
[the constellation 'abyssal black flame dragon' is snickering.]
"Don't just drop me, stupid!" Lee Gilyoung hissed.
"So? I wanted to hug ahjussi, and I can't do that while holding you, bug boy!"
Caught in the middle of their bickering, Lee Jihye did her best to separate them. When that didn't work, because they just started climbing all over her in an attempt to get at each other in more and more creative ways, she gave up and squeezed them both into a tight hug.
"Too bad, you're hugging me now!" Lee Jihye declared, and though the kids glared at each other in a way that promised that they'd continue the argument later, they relented and hugged her back.
God, kids were so exhausting. Kim Dokja was thankful that Lee Jihye was handling them for now because their normal bickering would probably be good for her too. Somehow. Or maybe Kim Dokja was just making stuff up, he didn't know.
[the constellation 'queen of the darkest spring' is smiling softly at the incarnation 'kim dokja'.]
When he heard himself wonder about whether that was how a parent felt, Kim Dokja felt a strange feeling in his gut. It was uncomfortable and raw, and he didn't know what to make of it. He had never had a good parental role model in his entire life—fuck, Yoo Joonghyuk parenting his sister and occasionally Shin Yoosung was basically the only one he could rely on most of the time. Even then, he failed, and he made bad choices too. Kim Dokja didn't know what he should do, or how he should respond to the strange looks everyone was sending him. They looked endeared and encouraging for the most part, which was weird because he was the last person who should be trusted with a child, but Yoo Joonghyuk was different.
Instead, he was looking at Kim Dokja intently with some kind of unidentifiable emotion flickering in his obsidian eyes. Kim Dokja didn't know what to make of it, but he felt torn. He never wanted to be looked at like that again. He never wanted Yoo Joonghyuk to look away. It was overwhelming and he didn't know what to do.
[the constellation 'secretive plotter' is glaring suspiciously at the incarnation 'yoo joonghyuk'.]
The notification snapped him out of it, finally looking away from the protagonist. It had been a week since he had died, and clearly that Outer God had done something weird that had delayed him further. At the very least, his connection to his incarnation had managed to save Lee Jihye, and that was all that mattered. He had arrived at exactly the right time, in the end.
As the scene changed, though, Han Sooyoung cursed. "Ah, fuck. What the hell happened to me!?"
[the constellation 'abyssal black flame dragon' is promising to rip apart the demons who hurt his incarnation.]
She was pretty injured, and even though it seemed like she had managed to fend off the demons that had been in the room, it definitely didn't look like the fight had been easy. Plus, lying there like that was just asking for trouble in a place like this. With any luck, someone in the group would run into her soon so she wouldn't get jumped by a demon and die, or worse, let Kim Dokja's stuff get stolen.
[the constellation 'god of wine and ecstasy' is curious to see what happened to the incarnation 'han sooyoung'.]
