"Kim Hyunsung... Kim Hyunsung... You're dead."

"..."

"I can't forgive you. Fuck. It doesn't matter from which perspective I look at it. I can't forgive you, mean bastard."

He had to pay for his actions. Though, to be honest, my personal feelings were a bit mixed.

It was necessary either way, right? The one thing he shouldn't do was leave me behind.

Did it make sense to give up on Lee Kiyoung when both the continent and I were at stake?

I'd dedicated my life to helping him. If he went away like that, how would that make me look? I had raised him so carefully, and he just went running without looking back? This was why there was no point in treating others well.

I knew that Kim Hyunsung was suffering a lot mentally, but I had no sympathy for him right now.

'I have to tame him as early as possible.'

We wouldn't just be together for a few decades. As we would have to live together for hundreds, thousands, maybe even tens of thousands of years, I thought this kind of preemptive suppression was necessary.

It wasn't that much work, considering it was just one extra show.

And it was necessary. It didn't make a difference if another story to the script was supposed to go on anyway.

It had consumed more divinity than I'd expected, though. Even now, it was still consuming it...

The scene didn't have to be provocative to be successful, but it was better to hit the jackpot than barely pass the break-even point.

If he regretted it in the deepest part of his heart, he would never repeat this mistake again.

'The Song Villain can do that much.'

Belial would also be getting ready.

I was worried that he wouldn't be able to do his job properly, but it probably wouldn't be a big deal. His mental state probably had already worn down to an unimaginable point, so he shouldn't be able to make normal judgments.

Since he relied on the demon's voice, he would act like the Republican organization if I managed him well.

He also had a downgraded version of my eyes, so there was room for some resistance against Hyunsung. I didn't think his head would fly off like beans roasted by lightning that easily.

'And I'm here too.'

If Song Sookyung wasn't enough, I could help.

Perhaps soon, the cast would gather on stage. I felt I wanted to prepare before that if possible, leaving me no choice but to talk to Cho Hyejin.

I was really out of time.

From the moment the main event in the North was nullified, we had been derailed.

We'd departed from the normal dungeon attack method that the system had kindly guided us through.

I was a little nervous, but it was fine.

'It's not just one thing, anyway.'

All dungeons were like that. Although the scale was large, this one was no different.

Just as the curse of the Cursed Shrine had been resolved through alchemy or when the Crack Museum was cleared in a pure, clever way, there would be other strategies for this dungeon as well.

In fact, it was simpler than the ones that came before since it had a clear purpose.

'The point isn't that we just need to resurrect him.'
