Kim Dokja breathed out roughly. He could feel a soft texture touching his cheek.

"Dokja-ssi!"

The fog faded and his vision became clear. The first thing that he saw was Yoo Sangah's face. Lee Hyunsung and Jung Heewon's worried faces also appeared.

"...The scenario?"

"It ended Dokja-ssi. We did it. We did it!"

'...I see. We did it.'

Kim Dokja felt relieved.

He looked at the agitated party members and tried to move his body. He had remained stiff for a long time and his muscles barely listened to him.

He opened his mouth and uttered his thoughts.

"Don't be...pleased."

"Huh?"

"Only one day has passed. Yesterday was the third day..."

Lee Hyunsung caught him as he tried to get up.

"Dokja-ssi! It isn't possible. You haven't slept at all."

"What time is it now?"

"It is 8:30 a.m. 30 minutes have passed since the scenario ended."

'8:30... fortunately, not too much time passed.'

It was really fortunate.

'By the way, there is a face missing.'

"Where is Gilyoung?"

"Ah, Gilyoung..."

Before Jung Heewon spoke, Kim Dokja already discovered where Lee Gilyoung was. Lee Jihye and Yoo Jonghyuk were looking down at Lee Gilyoung a few steps away.

'...No, what is that bastard Yoo Jonghyuk doing?'

Kim Dokja felt annoyed.

At this moment, he remembered how Yoo Jonghyuk was surprised when he saw his party.

'Don't tell me, when Yoo Jonghyuk used Sage's Eyes...?'

"When... you have chosen? Obvious never...before."

Due to the aftereffects of using the stone, Kim Dokja couldn't hear Yoo Jonghyuk's voice properly. Then Lee Gilyoung started talking.

"It is okay."

"...You really won't go with me?"

"Yes."

"You can become much stronger with me than with him. You still won't go?"

"Yes. I won't."

"...Stupid kid."

Yoo Jonghyuk frowned and looked Kim Dokja's way.

「 ...Lucky guy. He will be helpful so let's keep him a little longer. 」

Kim Dokja wanted to say something but he had no energy in his body.

"Dokja hyung!"

Once he discovered that Kim Dokja had woken up, Lee Gilyoung rushed towards him with swollen eyes. Yoo Jonghyuk's thoughts still rang in Kim Dokja's head.

「He even managed to gain that guy's favour. I really should let him be for now.」

'That guy? Who is he talking about?'

"Dokja hyung, here. Drink this."

"Huh?"

Kim Dokja stared at the bottle in Lee Gilyoung's hand bewildered.
