I held onto Unbroken Faith. My muscles expanded from the powerful stories. It was like a dragon's blood was flowing through my heart.
[Move while the force is building up. We have to make a gap.]
Yoo Jonghyuk came forward first.
“I will buy as much time as possible.”
The movements of the tentacles were more active than before and the ground was almost in ruins. We tried to move this guy as far away from the party members as possible.
“Haaaaap!”
Yoo Jonghyuk raised his magic power and moved forward. Meanwhile, I moved behind the Eater of Dreams. It was to find a place where I could hurt the main body as much as possible without hitting the tentacles. The body was at least one kilometre in diametre so it was a hard job to find the weak spot.
In the meantime, Cheok Jungyeong built up his strength. The one sword and two swords were powerful enough but they couldn't be compared to the huge force building in my right arm.
It was doubtful if this was really the power of an upper-grade constellation.
[…Damn, this is the limit for this body. This much is possible with the support of the probability.]
Cheok Jungyeong grumbled as the accumulation of power almost finished.
[Don't be too elated. I don't know if I can cut all the tentacles and hurt the body with this much strength.]
“I guess. The opponent is an outer god after all. Do you have a plan?” I asked with a bit of expectation. He spoke so confidently that I thought Cheok Jungyeong had a countermeasure.
Cheok Jungyeong thought for a moment before replying, [I will hit him with the Three Sword Style and hope he is tired enough to go back.]
“…Didn't you say you would protect me?”
[I will protect you. I promised in my name.]
“The strongest person on the Korean Peninsula is relying on luck in this situation?”
I flinched at the magic power that exploded from Unbroken Faith. Was he angry? However, Cheok Jungyeong calmed down.
[I know the 'Demon of the Horizon.']
The Demon of the Horizon. I heard this name and glanced at Yoo Jonghyuk, who was still fighting.
He didn't seem able to listen in on our conversation. Cheok Jungyeong continued speaking.
[I will ask him to send you to another world. There is no time limit on the ninth scenario. If you flee there, you will be able to live for a while. Of course, you will have to take care of things after that.]
“What type of demon has that power?”
[Rather than a demon… he is closer to a god. You don't need to know the details. You would be better off praying not to meet him.]
I didn't know the relationship between Cheok Jungyeong and the Demon of the Horizon…
I pretended differently but I knew that name. It was because the Demon of the Horizon was the existence who sent Shin Yoosung of the 41st regression here and who supplied the 'disasters' to the dokkaebis.
I wasn't sure how Cheok Jungyeong knew the Demon of the Horizon but perhaps he was the one who helped when Cheok Jungyeong was exiled from the scenario.
“Can other people escape this way?”
[Such a large amount of probability isn't allowed. The dokkaebis also won't allow it.]
“But once this happens… all the people left here will die.”
If I ran away, the people here would be swallowed up by the Eater of Dreams and have their stories swallowed. Cheok Jungyeong clicked his tongue.
