Two days after the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario's conclusion.
During these two days, the 98th scenario meandering nowhere fast also ended, as well.
[98th scenario – 'Candidate Selection' has automatically ended.]
[No one has challenged your Nebula.]
[Number of victories: 1]
[Contents of your reward is currently being finalised.]
[Clearing of the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' has been linked to your reward, and the contents are still being discussed.]
Perhaps that was inevitable. While Nebulas were busy fighting each other, we actually were victorious in the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario'. We fought off the ancient 'Outer Gods' and protected Earth. Not only that, with only the strength of our Nebula alone, too.
[A large number of Constellations respect you and your Nebula.]
[Nebula
[Every Constellation in the Final Scenario is now aware of your Nebula.]
[Every Constellation in the Final Scenario is curious of your 'Conclusion'.]
And now, everyone in this
– Representative-nim! Representative Kim Dok-Ja! Please say something!
Voices from the megaphones came from outside the [Industrial Complex].
Whether it was the hologram panel or the regular TV – didn't matter where or what, our story dominated them all. Every broadcasting station, including terrestrial and cable, was showing the front yard of the [Industrial Complex] in real-time.
Also, the interview footages of the Complex's residents were being repeated ad nauseam, too.
– 'Judge of Apocalypse'-nim! Can you tell us the future plans of
– Call me by my name when in public, please. Han Su-Yeong likes that stuff. I don't.
– Hey, Jeong Hui-Won. Wanna die?!
….I couldn't remember just how many times I had heard that “Wanna die” by now.
– The true influence behind the 'Kim Dok-Ja Company', 'Han Su-Yeong the Black Flame Demon Empress'. It is now revealed that, before the apocalypse, she was a famous author…
Reading the ticker proclaiming [Genius author's insight demolishes the Final Scenario!], I could seriously re-appreciate the fact that I had indeed reached this far.
-We heard that your representative-nim has become a 'Myth-grade Constellation' after defeating the 'Midday Sun'. Does that mean our South Korea now has a 'Myth-grade' Constellation that can step up to the limelight?
– Incarnations are currently locked in a fierce debate after witnessing the footages of the battle's final moments. Just what are the true identities of the 'Outer Gods'?
– Why did representative Kim Dok-Jnim suddenly become a blonde?
The battles we fought were broadcast not only on
[Constellation. 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is quite proud of herself.]
[Constellation, 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon', is turning its nose up.]
[Constellation, 'Most Ancient Liberator's', lips are twitching.]
And every one of those scenes was accompanied by an interview with someone.
– You see, me? I recognised that friend's greatness even back when we were working in the same company. Ng? Just which new employee tries to be the first to go home as soon as time's up…
Department head Han Myeong-Oh? I definitely told him not to do any interviews, though?
He was smiling brightly, his left hand holding onto his daughter's. It seemed that he had managed to safely rescue his child.
– He was just a regular friend. Mm, well, you know, those types of kids? There's always someone like that in a class, that type of a person.
Now that some time had passed by, even a person claiming to be my school mate popped up. I began thinking that maybe some managed to survive until now.
….Those faces that I couldn't even place a name on.
– Kind, quiet, likes to read a book by himself…
Although not technically wrong, that explanation wasn't right, either.
Some words were quite convenient to use. And those words usually couldn't explain anything because of that convenience.
The school mate muttered on about the obvious stuff for a while, before excusing himself with a stutter as if he found the camera a bit too much. He probably ran out of things to say.
– About Earth's saviour, the 'Demon King of Salvation'.
Another program started after that with a piece of rather sad-sounding music. It was a specially-compiled documentary.
[Constellation. 'Goryeo's First Sword', is nodding his head.]
[Constellation, 'Maritime War God', is proud of you.]
While watching the footages, I began recalling the time before the apocalypse. The dreams I had, the things I thought were important, etc.
The fact that all these things came across as distant memories felt very alien to me. Of course, not everything was totally alien, though.
– He endured a painful youth stained by domestic violence, and…
Someone suddenly switched the TV off.
