The sealing technique that utilised the [Sealing Sphere of the Apocalypse Dragon]. This was a similar plan to what the 1863rd turn's Han Su-Yeong had devised.
⸢”It'll stop the time of this place, and Earth will be sealed along with the Apocalypse Dragon. Frozen forever in the 95th scenario.”⸥
⸢”And that is the way you can kill Yu Jung-Hyeok.”⸥
It was the method of sealing Yu Jung-Hyeok inside the perpetuity of time and stopping his regressions.
I reflexively looked at the 'Secretive Plotter'. I wanted to tell him that now would be a good time to run. Even if it was him, he'd not be able to escape from being sealed in that thing.
However, why are you…. smiling?
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is looking at his own ■■.]
He was strong enough to survive 1863 lifetimes. But because of that, he was also exhausted enough to crumble at any given moment.
The eternal slumber. In a certain way, that was what he had been wishing for his entire life.
– H-hang on!! Uriel! Please stop!
My words prompted Uriel to look in my direction for the first time.
She seemed to be surprised by the fact that an insignificant being had called out her true name, and opened her mouth to speak.
[[Who is this soul form? Is it an existence from this world-line?]]
I wasn't sure what to say here.
Before I could, though, the 'Secretive Plotter' seized the initiative first. [[He's a nobody. Let him go.]]
For a moment there, he was looking straight at me. Quite unlike his usual self, his eyes were displaying clear emotions.
He genuinely wished for me to make my escape from here.
However, the situation remained grim – the portal was being shut forcibly by Uriel.
She alternated her gaze filled with the 'Secretive Plotter' and me, her eyes remaining unreadable, before opening her mouth again.
[[Even after you ruined your own turn and messed up someone else's world-line, you still have something you wish to protect?]]
Her power extended out in an instant and captured me. This might be the worst possible situation.
[[Very well. I shall seal this bastard away with you. Enjoy your eternal slumber alongside your comrade, then.]]
– H-hang on a minute! Shouldn't you be listening to my side of the story, too?!
Uriel glared at me as if I was speaking of nonsense.
I didn't back down and shouted back.
– I do understand where you are coming from. I know how wronged you feel after your world-line got distorted, and I get how angry you are. However, this is wrong. This isn't your world-line. What you're trying to do is exactly the same as the one you hate, the 'Secretive Plotter'!
As I urgently made my case, I began sensing this stinging pain on my forehead. My head with no actual physical form was hurting right now. The sensation from the constrictive headband was getting stronger.
– Why don't we stop this? I mean, it's already not enough to pool our strengths together to destroy the
[[You want to destroy the
Now that was an unexpected question.
– That's because, the world of the
[[If the
At that moment, a corner of my chest grew icy cold.
I secretly believed that all my companions wished to witness the same Conclusion as each other. However…. what if that wasn't the case?
After Yu Jung-Hyeok's death, the 999th turn's companions would have carried on to reach the Final Scenario, and cleared it.
What was the end of the world they had reached after all of that?
[[Such a world-line must never be created. That is the way of Evil.]]
Along with her declaration, her Status began to tighten around me.
– …..In that case, it can't be helped. We can only fight, then.
[[Fight? A creature without an Incarnation Body will…?]]
And so, the time to prepare for the final pages of the world had arrived.
