Chapter 252
[You have entered the hidden scenario area . ]
[Would you like to participate in the hidden scenario ― the Kim Dokja Game?]
Han Myungoh stared at me and muttered in a dumbfounded manner . “…What is going on?”
I stared at Biyoo .
[Baat, baaat…]
Biyoo repeatedly shook her head . It wasn’t Biyoo who did this .
Most hidden scenarios were activated according to the will of the Star Stream, just like the main scenario . Then why at this time? A subsequent system message gave a hint .
[The owner of the industrial complex is currently absent . ]
[An emergency promotion scenario is activated . ]
It seemed that I had been away for too long . “I think the Star Stream has determined that I have no intending of inheriting the duke’s position . ”
“Isn’t it okay now that you’re here?”
“That would be good . ”
The scenario remained unchanged after I entered the industrial complex . Maybe the Star Stream scenario was twisted by the impersonation act that Yoo Jonghyuk and I committed . At the time, there was a message that an error occurred .
“…What is the Kim Dokja Game? It is a free participation scenario?”
Jang Hayoung opened his eyes in the back seat and stretched .
[We are currently electing the ‘real Kim Dokja’ of the industrial complex . ]
At this rate, my name was going to be stolen . I turned towards Han Myungoh and asked, “Will you participate?”
“Why would I do that?”
“What about you, Jang Hayoung?”
“I don’t want to be Kim Dokja . ” HIs expression quickly changed and he seemed to be sulking . “…I don’t know the Demon King of Salvation . ”
In order to avoid reality, he had decided to separate me from the Demon King of Salvation . The last one I looked at was the Breaking the Sky Master .
Woof woof!
I nodded . “Then only I will join . ”
“Is it okay? You don’t know what is going on…”
“No matter what happens, I have to go . This is my industrial complex . ”
Immediately after joining the scenario, a message window emerged .

…It was the first time I had seen such a scenario . This scenario naturally wasn’t in the original .
[A new aspiring ‘Kim Dokja’ has entered . ]
[There are three hours left in the scenario . ]
[You must be acknowledged as ‘Kim Dokja’ by most of the constellations . ]
[You are the 1131st aspiring Kim Dokja . ]
The scenario started and I was summoned to the outskirts of the plaza in the Kim Dokja Industrial Complex . There was already a struggle to prove they were Kim Dokja .
[Haha, everyone! Do you want to be recognized by the constellations? Show us that you are the real Kim Dokja!]
I heard the voice of a dokkaebi . While I was away, the bureau had successfully advanced into the Demon World . It would be a hindrance to the wenny people… in any case, they gathered like ghosts whenever there was a story .
[Baaat!]
Biyoo became determined and started to expand the channel .
[Multiple constellations have entered the channel . ]
I looked around slowly at the other aspiring ‘Kim Dokja . ’
“I am Kim Dokja! Look!”
“I’m Kim Dokja!”
The aspiring Kim Dokjas had mosaics on their faces as they shouted . Perhaps I looked like this to the other constellations .
…Damn, something felt strange . Most of the aspiring Kim Dokjas were just repeating my name and not showing any unusual gestures . They were those who were blinded by the duke’s position and participated .
However, not all of them were the same .
“I am the prophet Kim Dokja!”
“I am the Demon King of Salvation!”
[Some constellations are interested . ]
[Candidate 986 has gained 10 points . ]
I stopped for a moment as I saw some candidates screaming ‘Kim Dokja’ in a plausible costume .
“I am the King of a Kingless World!”
[A few constellations are interested in this candidate . ]
[Candidate 986 has gained 20 points . ]
…Wasn’t he quite good? I entered the centre of the industrial complex and more and more people started saying plausible things . Some Kim Dokjas could be seen duelling . I wanted to know why this area was so bloody when I heard a message from a familiar constellation .
[The constellation ‘Prisoner of the Golden Headband’ is arguing that Kim Dokja is a brave person . ]
…I was wondering why the Great Sage the Equal of Heaven was so quiet . He was already in the middle of this situation . There was the sound of a blade cutting through the air and the aspiring Kim Dokja collapsed .
“Kuaaack!”
A sharp magic power cut at the waist of another aspiring Kim Dokja . Some candidates fled and the winning Kim Dokja shouted,
“This is proof that I am Kim Dokja . ”
A blade made of blue magic power was in his hand . I was honestly a bit surprised .
[A great number of constellations are interested in this candidate!]
[Candidate 312 has gained 100 points . ]
Candidate 312 wasn’t using the White Pure Star Energy but it was similar in appearance . Candidate 312 glanced at me before starting to wipe out other candidates again . It was only a fleeting moment but the moment I met his eyes, Aileen’s words went through my head .
-Since the duke left, I have been struggling with the other industrial complexes… the party members handle it well .
I had a rough idea of how things turned out like this . Some of the aspiring Kim Dokjas here were from other industrial complexes . In other words, there were those who received sponsored information about me and posed as Kim Dokja .
My mind was a bit complicated . If I was defeated in this game, the wrong Kim Dokja would enter the Demon King Selection .
[A few constellations are interested in you . ]
[A few constellations are demanding that you prove you are Kim Dokja . ]
How could I prove my identity? I had no resident registration or identification card to prove myself .
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ says the true Kim Dokja loves comradeship . ]
…Uriel? I was about to shout at her when a candidate in the centre of the square knelt down and started crying . “Yoo Jonghyuk! Yoo Jonghyuuuuk! Wake up! Please wake up!”
Kim Dokja screamed as he held the imaginary Yoo Jonghyuk in his arms . I couldn’t help laughing . I didn’t do such a thing . Uriel couldn’t be fooled by such acting…
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ is shedding tears . ]
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ is begging you to show her again next time . ]
[Candidate 32 has gained 300 points . ]
…I couldn’t believe it . I shook my head and passed Candidate 32, only to hear an unexpected statement .
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ claims that the real Kim Dokja is a chuuni . ]
Abyssal Black Flame Dragon? When did he come…
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ claims that the real Kim Dokja surely knows the true middle-school second-year syndrome . ]
A true chuuni? I think I knew what happened… surprisingly, at the same time, there was a candidate who started shouting,
“Uhhhh, Yoo Sangah-ssi . Do you know? Kukuk . I am a reader . I have the life of a reader . ”
My thoughts became incredibly complicated . It was a story before the scenario appeared . How did he know… no, wait, I never said it that way .
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ is satisfied . ]
[The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ has given Candidate 97 300 points . ]
I felt desolated and my lips were trembling . At this rate, I would lose my name to these ridiculous people .
I should think calmly . In order to show that I was Kim Dokja, I needed to remind them of the events shared by only me and the constellations .
“Get your hand off me and get lost, you damn jerk!”
[Candidate 32 has gained 200 points!]
Something only the constellations and I knew…
“I like to smile like this!”
[Candidate 97 has gained 250 points!]
The constellations and I…
“My favourite thing is a Chinese dress and garter belt!”
[Candidate 312 has gained 400 points!]
Damn, what the hell was happening? I organized my complicated thoughts and decided to use an easy method . I would directly inform them that I was Kim Dokja thought the Demon King of Salvation’s indirect message .
[During the course of the scenario, the constellation ‘Demon King of Salvation’ can’t speak . ]
…Son of a bitch .
[There is one hour left in the scenario . ]
There wasn’t much time left now . I quietly held Unbroken Faith in my hand . There was a limit to the number of aspiring Kim Dokjas . If I killed all the aspiring Kim Dokjas, the last candidate would become the true Kim Dokja .
However, I didn’t want to use this method . They were currently blinded by power but most of them were citizens of my industrial complex…
I sighed and shook my head as I gripped and released the hilt of my weapon repeatedly .
「 These actions aren’t like you . 」
To my chagrin, Yoo Jonghyuk was right . Kim Dokja would never solve things this way . I thought about it . How do I prove my identity? No, what did it mean to prove I was ‘me’ in the first place?
At this time, there was a sudden change .
“This is Electrification, the ultimate technique taught by the Paradox Baekchong…!”
Candidate 312 was shouted while holding a lightning sword . I was about to point out it was Paradox Baekchung, not Baekchong when lightning struck from the sky .
“Uwaaaack!”
The blue-white lightning hit the candidate’s blade and tore his body apart . Some candidates screamed and retreated while some constellations liked it and randomly gave points . At the crucible of the confusion, I looked up at the sky . Something small was falling from the sky .
…I thought it was time for him to come but I didn’t expect it to be this fast . The small dot that gave off huge pressure landed in the square of the industrial complex with a deafening roar .
A blue-white light flooded the square . A small man stood in the centre of the lightning and emitted a huge presence . Sparks flew as a voice was heard from the dust .
[Where is my disciple?]
After a while, the appearance of the voice’s owner was revealed .
[Many constellations are astonished . ]
The small man didn’t care if the constellations were astonished or not . There were some constellations who realized the identity of the man .
“This small body…”
“Wait, don’t tell me?”
They glanced at each other and then fell down in front of the man .
“M-Me!”
“I am Kim Dokja! Teacher…!”
Numerous Kim Dokjas fell down in front of the small man . I looked at them and clicked my tongue . It was good that they were quick-witted . However, it would be better if their bodies could move faster .
“Aaaack!”
“Kuaaaack!”
The Kim Dokjas were attacked by the blue-white lightning and turned to ashes . I looked at the teacher kind enough to personally come to pick up his disciple and realized something .
…I see . In the first place, ‘I’ wasn’t something that could be proven .
[Your unique story will be played . ]
[The story ‘Returnee’s Disciple’ has begun . ]
It was because ‘I’ was made up of things that didn’t only belong to me . Amidst the fleeing Kim Dokja, there was one person who knew the real Kim Dokja .
[Where is my real disciple?]
If I came forward, I would be ripped apart like the other fakes . Then I heard a familiar voice .
“Damn, what is this? Are they all Kim Dokjas?” I looked back and saw Jang Hayoung grumbling .
I spoke to Jang Hayoung . “Jang Hayoung . ”
He looked over with surprise after hearing his name and flinched back with surprise . “…Kim Dokja?”
I nodded and asked, “Did you learn the Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship?”
“…Of course I learnt it . Why?”
I smiled and spread open my arms . “Use it on me now . ”
