The unconscious Yu Jung-Hyeok didn't want to wake up even after four hours passed by.
“Hey, you crazy idiot! Wake up!”
Han Su-Yeong and I took turns slapping his cheeks. Unfortunately, he still showed no signs of waking up at all.
Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!!
Also, his damn cheeks were so hard that even the concerted slapping from both of us failed to puff them up. Our palms went numb from pain, instead.
Han Su-Yeong spoke in a genuinely impressed tone of voice. “You know, this is kind of fun?”
“….This is no time to crack jokes like that.”
[5 hours and 12 minutes remaining until the start of the Great Apocalypse Scenario.]
We really didn't have much time left. Soon, the 'Great Apocalypse' will commence, and the Outer Gods would start invading us due to the expanding Probability.
But now, Yu Jung-Hyeok was in this state.
I couldn't even begin to guess what went wrong where. Was this related to my [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] somehow?
['Character List' has failed to activate.]
[Applicable individual is not a 'Character'.]
I tried using [Character List] one more time, but the resulting message was the same.
There were a lot of 'Yu Jung-Hyeoks' in this universe, but that message only ever appeared with just one. That Yu Jung-Hyeok of the 1863rd regression turn, disappearing towards his own story…
When I got that far, I began thinking of something. But… could it really be?
Yi Seol-Hwa watching on from the side asked a question. “Should we feed him the [Life and Death Pill]?”
Not too long ago, she finally managed to perfect the ultimate recovery medicine, the [Life and Death Pill]. This elixir could apparently cure any and all fatal wounds when ingested.
“Have you already reached the level of mass-producing it?”
“No, not yet. I was only able to concoct a few. Didn't have enough ingredients….”
I could only sigh. Since we didn't know what might happen, we couldn't afford to carelessly waste the [Life and Death Pill].
[Character 'Yu Jung-Hyeok's' egos are colliding!]
On top of that, we weren't sure if the problem of one's ego could be solved by the [Life and Death Pill], either. It was then, a slight vibration reverberated throughout the Industrial Complex.
“Dok-Jssi, we've detected movement.”
Yi Hyeon-Seong opened the sick bay's door and hurriedly entered.
Han Su-Yeong and I looked at each other at the same time. I urgently switched the display panel on and the Pacific Ocean's situation soon filled it up.
Ku-gugugugu!
The wave that swallowed up the American continent revealed itself once more. Transparent dome walls had stopped the wave, and it was steadily increasing its water level, instead.
The Probability was still restricting it, that was why.
Tsu-chuchuchuchut!
However, that Probability's wall was being pushed back bit by bit. The border that crossed the vast Pacific was gradually widening its diameter. We could also see the 'Outer Gods' wiggling about in between the rising waves.
In five hours' time, that border would reach the Korean Peninsula, and this land would disappear from the face of this Earth.
“…..Kim Dok-Ja. A plan?”
“I do have one,” said I, before glancing at the unconscious Yu Jung-Hyeok and adding something else. “Although, it looks like I'll have modify it a bit now.”
“Stop making me worried, alright? How did that thing get stopped back in the original storyline?”
“Nebulas all desperately fought together. Most of the Constellations were ground down to fine dust trying to stop that.”
“Where are those oh-so-mighty Constellations, then?”
“What do you mean, where?”
[Many Constellations are watching your judgement.]
Most likely, they were busy spectating on our apocalypse.
[Constellation, 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is criticising other Constellations, asking them if the ideals of righteousness in
[I'm familiar with waiting, yet you have taken far too long.]
This voice sounded as if millions of locusts were crashing in at the same time.
