“Don't you think the next scenario will still be tough?” Han Sooyoung asked me.
The 73rd demon king was strong but there would be no problems if we were thoroughly prepared. Maybe this was the easiest of all the scenarios I had done so far.
Shortly afterwards, the people training gathered near me.
“Have you finished raising your rankings?”
It was Jung Heewon who answered my question. “We are all in the top 10. In fact, Jihye and Pildu-ssi were close but they automatically upgraded this morning.”
“Automatically?”
There was only one reason for such an upgrade. It was when a top ranker was killed.
Han Sooyoung already had an ominous expression. “A top 10 ranker suddenly died? Something is strange… Hey, I'm really not going…”
“You came, Kim Dokja. Are you also going to take that woman?”
Han Sooyoung hid behind me at Yoo Jonghyuk's sudden appearance. She was still scared of Yoo Jonghyuk. I nodded as Yoo Jonghyuk stared at Han Sooyoung and pulled out the Six-man Card.
[The incarnation 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has used the Six-man Card.]
[The incarnation 'Han Sooyoung' has become a special participant of the scenario.]
[The incarnation 'Han Sooyoung' has joined incarnation Yoo Jonghyuk's team.]
Han Sooyoung was astonished by the rising messages. “W-What is this? Hey! Why am I on his team?”
“Now, let's get ready to leave.”
At my words, the party members moved into their teams.
The first to gather was Yoo Jonghyuk's team. They were Lee Hyunsung, Lee Seolhwa, Lee Jihye and Gong Pildu. In addition, there was the complaining Han Sooyoung.
The unusual mixture of old characters from the novel and new characters gave me a wonderful feeling. It was a luxury that only a reader of Ways of Survival could enjoy.
My team followed suit. Jung Heewon, Yoo Sangah, Shin Yoosung and Lee Gilyoung. There was a free atmosphere compared to the military discipline of Yoo Jonghyuk's team.
I looked at the members one by one.
“…Why are you looking at us like that?”
“Just… It is a new feeling…”
I smiled at Jung Heewon's scolding. I felt pained and sad at the people who followed me well all the way here. I felt like my heart had grown since I talked with the Fourth Wall.
It might be because I was more prepared for this scenario. I was now afraid to lose them.
“Oh, shouldn't we be a group of six as well?”
The team members followed my gaze. There was a line of dolls a few steps away.
“Don't stay over there and come here.”
We had obtained two Six-man Cards. Han Sooyoung went to Yoo Jonghyuk's team and my team also needed a sixth person. To be exact, it was a sixth woman.
“…Sookyung-ssi also wanted to go with you.”
“It is more helpful for you to go with me.”
Jeon Woochi's incarnation, Cho Youngran looked at me with complicated eyes. I asked my mother to include her as a member of the team. Jeon Woochi's stigma was quite useful for emergency situations.
“Did you talk to Sookyung-ssi?”
[The new '73rd Demon King' is elected.]
