– Capture them! Apprehend the eldest Prince first!
– They are taking the Fourth Prince away!
Angry Reincarnators inside the screen were pouring out a barrage of arrows and sword lights. And there were two men running within the thick, choking smoke – Yu Joong-Hyeok and Kim Dok-Ja.
[Baht, baaaht!]
With a very restless expression on its face, Biyu jumped up and down in the air like a ball of mochi.
Arrows flew past Kim Dok-Ja's head with barely any room to spare; some of them even accurately fell towards his back, but the First Prince quickly swung his sword to deflect them all.
– Retreat!
With that order, the revolutionaries receded away. And there were Constellations watching this spectacle from afar.
[Constellation, 'Father of the Rich Night', is gazing at 'Kaixenix Archipelago'.]
[Constellation, 'Queen of the Darkest Spring', is looking at the Underworld's successor.]
[Constellation, 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon', is roaring out in frustration!]
Unfortunately, their messages couldn't reach the Incarnations within the channel.
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is pleading for at least one message to get through!]
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is requesting for the permission to send indirect messages…..]
[Baht, baaaht.]
With a sad look, Biyu shook its head.
Dokkaebis might possess the authority to change broadcast set-up of their channels, but the situation this time with the 'Isle of Reincarnators' was a rather unique one.
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is glaring at the 'Guardian of the Mandala'.]
The one who offered up the stage for the scenario of the 'Great War of Saints and Demons' was the master of the 'Isle of Reincarnators', 'Guardian of the Mandala'. He was not allowed to participate in this scenario personally, but at the same time, was given the same level of authority to interfere as the high-ranking Dokkaebis during this war.
[Oh, young angel, that is regrettably impossible to do so. Unless, you decide to convert to the path of Buddhism through this opportunity.]
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is throwing a temper tantrum.]
[You should be mindful of your temper. Those with much anger in them will get consumed by it later.]
[A great number of Constellations are expressing their indignation!]
Not caring whether they were furious or not, the 'Guardian of the Mandala' continued to stare with quiet, distant eyes at Kim Dok-Ja inside the screen – as if he was searching for a certain profound epiphany from that man's face.
[Channels nearby are momentarily being frozen!]
Tsu-chuchuchut….
It was around then that someone revealed himself in the air accompanied by a sudden storm of sparks. The 'Guardian of the Mandala' shifted his disinterested eyes in that direction.
[This one doesn't recall giving entry permission to a Dokkaebi from the Bureau.]
[I simply had to come with the situation being what it is, oh, 'King of Reincarnators'.]
The one that appeared was the upper-grade Dokkaebi, Bihyung. He courteously performed the Buddhist-style greeting and began his questioning right away.
[I'm aware that you possess ten different names. Sakya, Sakyamuni, Siddhartha, Tathagata, Sugata, Buddha…. Which one among them are you, exactly?]
The expression on the Guardian's face shifted ever so slightly after hearing Bihyung's question. The fact was, he would transform into a different existence according to the name he currently possessed.
[This one is currently Sakyamuni.]
[Sakyamuni, please cancel the abnormal scenario currently imposed on the Nebula
[That is contrary to our prior agreement. Have you not handed over all control of the preparatory scenarios to me?]
[I believe you were strongly requested to remain neutral in the upcoming 'Great War of Saints and Demons'.]
Bihyung's sharp gaze landed firmly on Sakyamuni. The Warrior Monk's eyes quietly held that gaze, and the mandala within them reversed their spinning direction.
[Well. This one isn't the first person to stop being neutral, it seems.]
[Can you clarify that, please?]
[I heard recently that there is an upper-grade Dokkaebi greatly favouring Incarnations from a certain Nebula.]
Right after Sakyamuni finished replying in a subtle but accusatory tone of voice, Biyu popped up in mid-air and plopped its soft tummy on top of Bihyung's head.
[Are you here because of the Bureau, or by your own volition?]
Bihyung lightly bit his lip, but didn't provide an answer. Instead, he looked at Kim Dok-Ja in the screen, currently breaking past the clouds of explosions and running away.
[The trial you have put them in is far too excessive. It might be only a blink to the Constellations, but that length of time is as much as one's lifespan from a human's perspective.]
