Chapter 452 That light in her eyes, that killing intent . They were exactly the same as that of the Archangel I knew, yet they were also different . This was Uriel's true appearance, the cold-blooded and cruel judge . She was the being that burned all the enemies caught by the [Flame of Retribution] for the sake of righteousness .
⸢This Uriel had reached her own 'Conclusion', and . . . . ⸥

⸢And, she came this far to kill the 'Secretive Plotter' . ⸥
[OhOhOhOhOhOh] [TwokingsTwokingsTwokingTwokingTwokings] The entrance of another Outer God possessing a similar level of Status as the Secretive Plotter caused confusion to spread among the small Outer Gods .
[Constellation, 'Goryeo's First Sword', is greatly stunned by the entrance of the new 'Outer God'!]

But, broadcasting from this place should've been impossible? Maybe the barrier preventing the broadcast was undone after the forest went up in flames .
[ is paying attention to the 'N'Gai's Forest' . ]
The [Flames of Retribution] moved in Uriel's hands . The blade that melted the entirety of the forest flew in, but the Plotter lightly shifted his head out of the way . The weapon missed him by a hair's breadth and instead, blew away half of the hall and set it on fire . [GahAhAhAhAhAh] Outer Gods, shocked by the merciless destruction, screamed out loudly . The [Flames of Retribution] moved again, this time with enough Status to blow the entire hall away . Every hair on my dumpling body rose up . Even Surya back in the original novel's 265th turn was not as powerful as this when he destroyed Earth . Kwa-aaaaah!! This time, a humongous meteor was descending from the tip of the [Flames of Retribution] . It contained enough power to blow away this forest and then, maybe even erase this entire dimension along the way, too . I dragged out every ounce of power within my soul form . Unfortunately, there was no way I'd properly block such an attack without an Incarnation Body . Besides, to block an attack like that, you'd need . . . . .
[Great Fable, 'Pilgrim of the Lonely Apocalypse', has begun its storytelling!]
In the end, the 'Secretive Plotter' had to step forward . Pitch-black particles shot out as he swung the [Heaven Shaking Sword] vigorously . It was the power of a Great Fable . The dark Status spread out like a huge wall and defended against the meteor's impact . Kwaaaa-boooom!! Violent gusts of wind whipped about near the base of the forest, and the uprooted trees were flung up into the air . Whirlwinds made out of flames were completely annihilating everything in the vicinity .
Witnessing a clash of this calibre was indeed an exceedingly rare opportunity . Even the battle between Hades and Poseidon back in 'Gigantomachia' wasn't this hectic .
[Large Nebulas are paying close attention to the battle between these two beings . ]
Tsu-chuchuchu . . . . ! In the centre of where the two Statuses were colliding, sparks grew fiercer and heavier . The Plotter's [Heaven Shaking Sword] was trembling; he was being pushed back . It was all due to his Status being reduced after fighting me and Yu Jung-Hyeok . This was the power of Uriel who witnessed the 'Conclusion' . At this rate, both the 'Secretive Plotter' and I would disappear from the along with the N'Gai's Forest .
[Currently, your soul temporarily belongs to the 'Secretive Plotter' . ]
[Time remaining until your soul can return: 20 hours, 31 minutes, 20 seconds]
I still had over twenty hours remaining until my soul could return . Simply dragging things out wouldn't help my situation at all . Because, it didn't look as if the 'Secretive Plotter' would be able to hold out for too long .
[Exclusive skill, 'The 4th Wall', is activating!]
I needed to stay calm in moments like this . I decided to get a better understanding of this situation first . "Look, man! Why is Uriel attacking you??" First of all, which world-line did that 'Uriel' come from? And why was she attacking the 'Secretive Plotter'?
[999th turn's 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' is staring at the 'Living Flame' with a helpless expression . ]
For a moment, I felt the inside of my head blank out . … . Could it be? It was the regression turn that I liked the most . It was almost the perfect turn with just one blemish to its record – the regression turn that reached the Conclusion's doorstep . Uriel began speaking again . [[Oh, I ask you, the Outer God . I hope that you haven't forgotten about the events of the 999th turn . ]] [[… . I do remember . ]] [[That's good . ]] The blade of the enraged Uriel contained the Fable she had compiled so far .
[Great Fable, 'Flames of Eternity', has begun its storytelling!]
Her Great Fable burned fiercely . A story that I had never seen before was unfolding itself .
⸢"Master, we're almost there . We just have to go a little bit further, you know!"⸥
That was Yi Ji-Hye's voice . Words began telling their story .
⸢"Jung-Hyeok-ssi, just hold on for a little longer . We're almost there!"⸥
999th turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok, having lost his left arm, right leg, and both of his eyes, was there . This Yu Jung-Hyeok only lived for the sake of his companions . His world was dyed in darkness, but one voice entered it like a ray of light .
⸢[Conquering King, you must stay with us . ]⸥
That's right . Uriel was also accompanying them in the 999th turn . She was Yu Jung-Hyeok's comrade . For the sake of a man who risked his everything to fight, the Archangel willingly became his ally .
⸢[The Conclusion to this world is just around the corner . ]⸥
I recalled that the 999th turn was something of a miracle . Even if their luck was good, to think that he managed to almost reach the Conclusion during only his 999th turn . But the truth was, it wasn't all due purely to 'luck' .
⸢Yu Jung-Hyeok of the 999th turn made a deal with an 'Outer God' . ⸥
The reason why I didn't go for the [Absolute Throne], and tried not to do the 'Other World Pledge' if at all possible, was because I knew how the '999th turn' had ended .
⸢An unknown godly being, whose name was just as mysterious . The 'Other World Pledge' made with that godly being eventually took Yu Jung-Hyeok's life . ⸥
The original novel didn't specify who that 'Outer God' was . But it was a creature that spent its own Probability to grant the 999th turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok incredible power and lucky opportunities . Chills ran down my neck .
- 'Demon King of Salvation' . I too made a mistake like you once before . - Rather foolishly, I tried to change what had already happened in the past .
That 'Outer God' was none other than the 'Secretive Plotter' .
- Now, do you understand? This is the consequence of distorting the world-line .
He had entered the past world-line belonging to the original storyline and tried to distort the Probability . And the result of that was Uriel who witnessed the Conclusion of the 999th regression turn, showing up here . [[I shall avenge my world-line in this place . ]] She was here to avenge her comrades' grudges against the 'Outer God' from then .
[[Just like how you stole away all that's precious to me, I shall do the same to you . ]] Her boundless and justified wrath filled her true voice . I felt all my strength abandoning me . I could understand where Uriel was coming from . I too clearly remembered the moment that the 999th turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok died .
- Author-nim . This can't be the end, can it? But, isn't Jung-Hyeok-ee just too pitiful to end up like this?
999th turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok sacrificed his life to guide his comrades towards the Conclusion . But his cost was to never see the conclusion of the world himself . It was all because of the damn 'Other World Pledge' . The Probability flooding in cut his life off before the end .
- Can't he be revived somehow? Like, the Underworld, or through reincarnation . I mean, there are lots of different ways, right? Besides, just what was that 'Outer God' anyway . . . . . ?
I resented the author, and resented that 'Outer God' . And I despaired while looking at the dying Yu Jung-Hyeok with only a little bit left until the Conclusion . The mental shock was so strong that I even ended up hesitating whether to read the next day's chapter or not . Now, I was curious . Why did the 'Secretive Plotter' do something like that back in the 999th turn? [[I wanted to change it . ]] … . What? [[I wanted to see a proper Conclusion . Even if that happened in a different world-line . ]] The Plotter once told me this – that I had to be careful with the Probability, that I needed to create the right Conclusion . But even someone saying stuff like that had actually wished to change his past . Just like how I wished to change this regression turn, he too had felt the same way once . Regardless of whether the end result devoured the cause or not . . . . Even if the 's Probability crumbled . . . . … . He wanted to reach the proper Conclusion at least once . He wished to see himself reaching the Conclusion together with his comrades . However, it didn't work out that way . [[I'm sure you find me quite pathetic . That I made the same sort of mistake as you . ]] The Plotter's Status was crumbling down . His body was getting even smaller . All Yu Jung-Hyeoks sleeping within him were now screaming . And as if to speak up for those screams . . . . [[I wanted to find the one responsible for creating this tragedy,]] said the Plotter . [[The one who created this universe . The one that made me regress, and made me repeat the scenarios . My goal is to kill the one beyond the 'Wall' . ]] That was his true goal . Stopping the regressions, saving the Outer Gods, opening up the Final Wall . . . . All of these were centred around his main goal . He waved his hand and my soul left the [Murim dumpling] . I got tense . I couldn't tell what he was thinking of . I quickly spoke to him . - The current you can't stop that Uriel . However, if my companions and I help out . . . . . The Plotter shifted his gaze over to me . [[Do you understand what you're saying right now?]] - I do . I was improvising on the fly, but I did genuinely feel that way . Since I heard his true end goal, it was time for me make my reply . - From the get-go, the world that peeps on and greedily devours someone else's life is wrong . The was wrong . Yu Jung-Hyeok's regressions were wrong, and the stories the scenarios created were unfair . - That's why I won't sit still . I'll witness the Conclusion . You say I shouldn't, but I'll see it regardless . I'll definitely jump over that Wall you failed to cross along with my companions, and as for the being beyond it . . . .
The Plotter was now waiting for me to finish my words . - … . I'll kill that guy . I'll end your 'Most Ancient Dream' . Uriel's Status was growing even stronger . The expansive hall began crumbling down . Like a world breaking apart, the N'Gai's Forest was disappearing . Outer Gods moved closer to the 'Secretive Plotter', perhaps sensing that the end was nigh . Meanwhile, he opened his mouth . [[You said that you survived because of my story . ]] " . . . . " [[In that case, time to pay your debt . ]] Just before I could ask him for clarification, Yu Jung-Hyeok's Fables flooded out from him .
[Great Fable, 'Pilgrim of the Lonely Apocalypse', is howling out!]
[Great Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', has begun its storytelling!]
The Plotter's memories were now permeating into me – memories that I didn't know . The information he gained after going through the 1863rd turn was now flooding into me . - You . . . . ! A portal was generated behind me, one created by the power of an 'Outer God' . It began to gradually suck me in . - H-hey, hang on a minute! What are you trying to . . . ! [[I'm not trying to leave this world's Conclusion in your hands . ]] At that moment, he no longer looked like the 'Secretive Plotter' . [[I shall regress . ]] Right now, he was 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' . [[I shall live through the 1864th turn, and then, the 1865th . I'll survive that turn, witness the Conclusion and become the Outer God once more, and . . . . ]] Eventually, the hall collapsed . Everything was melting away under the bright light . Uriel's sword sliced through the thick history that totalled 1863rd regression turns, and flew towards the 'Secretive Plotter' . [[To see the Conclusion of this world-line, I shall return . ]] His body was defencelessly pierced through . And I had to watch that, unable to do anything . He was cut down by the [Flames of Retribution] and his Fable was scattering away .
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is activating Stigma, 'Regression Lv . ??'!]
Even though he had become the 'Outer God', he was still a regressor . The one thing he hadn't done in a long time, regressing, would start again . He'd wake up in the 1864th turn's subway once more, and go on to create yet another horrifying world-line . ⸢Kim Dok-Ja thought to himself . 'I can't let that be . '⸥ Before I could unleash the Fables permeating in my soul form, though, Uriel made her move first . [[You shall not escape to the next turn . ]] Her white hands grabbed the Plotter's neck . Black light pouring out from her hand stopped the Fable's disintegration . The light spread out gradually and encased his entire body . Soon, the light formed a shape of small sphere . I recognised what that was . That was the [Sealing Sphere] used back in the 1863rd turn to seal away the 'Apocalypse Dragon' . Why didn't I think of it before? Uriel was now an Outer God, too . So she should obviously be aware of the Plotter's, or Yu Jung-Hyeok's, ability by now . She should know that he'd continue regressing and would never truly die . Her hand tightened further and further . The jet-black Sealing Sphere soon emitted pale light . [[I shall seal you away for eternity . ]]
