Kim Dokja, a narrative grade constellation, was made into a proportionally powerful demon king. After over twenty minutes of the party depleting their energy and stamina trying to break down and tear apart his demonic form piece by piece, Kim Dokja was covered with blackened skin and countless wounds but his attacks only grew more powerful, and the pace of the combat did not slow.
Naturally, the final piece must be the protagonist who is not the protagonist. Yu Junghyeok finally recovers from the blow he was dealt earlier and faces Kim Dokja with solemn sorrow.
"It should’ve been me who died here."
But he understands the ways of the scenarios better than anyone, and better than anyone he is able to do what must be done whatever the cost. He joins into the fight without any quibbling and the power of his earth shaking strikes clearly are what was needed to inch Kim Dokja toward the last legs of his life.
There is one final hurdle. Kim Dokja had several remaining revivals, an ability obtained from hunting down the Yamata no Orochi. But this can easily be solved with a weapon in Yu Junghyeok's possession.
Kim Dokja had considered all of this and directs Yu Junghyeok to kill him properly and fully. And, with shaking eyes, Yu Junghyeok concedes to do so, switching to the one weapon that could truly slay Kim Dokja, the same weapon that had slain Yamata no Orochi.
[The stigma ‘Sacrifice’s Will Lv. 1’ has been activated!]
[The master of the stigma risks his life for others.]
The nameless constellation's first and only stigma triggers, rejuvenating those that he risks his life to save. And all around the party gathers up their strength for one final attack with only minutes left to end the fight.
"Thank you for everything.'
「 Incarnation Kim Dokja will be killed by the person he loves most. 」
This was the prophecy that brought Kim Dokja here. It had been a vexing prophecy for someone who could not sincerely claim to love anyone.
But now, on the absolute brink of death, with his party running at him, with the gazes of all of the stars in sky pointed at him, with the total weight of all of the characters in his own story coming together to bring about his end, it finally make sense.
This wasn’t the Ways of Survival he knew but — It was a story more wonderful than Ways of Survival.
He was laughing when Yu Junghyeok's sword pieced his heart.
"Kim Dokja."
"It was a really great story. Isn’t that right?"
Countless stars blinked.
Some, a small few, sent messages.
[The constellation ‘Prisoner of the Golden Headband’ doesn’t wish for your death.]
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ doesn’t wish for your death.]
[The constellation ‘Secretive Plotter’ doesn’t wish for your death.]
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ doesn’t wish for your death.]
“Let’s meet again, Yu Junghyeok.”
And as the battle is won, the demon king power fades from Kim Dokja's body which limply falls into Yu Junghyeok's arms.
[The main scenario has ended.]
[Seoul Dome has been freed.]
However, having become a mechanism of the star stream, even this is not enough.
A small hole opens in the air behind the fading Kim Dokja and begins to pull his body through. Yu Junghyeok fights and clings, but at the end of the scenario there is no need for the remains of the losers.
Kim Dokja's lifeless body is sucked into the empty space in the air, and completely broken down in absolute darkness.
[Your incarnation body has completely been destroyed.]
