“I remembered the moment I read a novel for the first time.

The texture of the soft paper touching my fingertips. The black letters blooming on a white field. The texture of the page I folded with my hands.

�� It isn’t important to read the letters. The important thing is where the letters lead you. ��

My mother, who loved books, used to say this. At least for me, it wasn’t just a saying.

The gaps in the black print. My own little snow garden lay in between the letters. This space, which was too small for someone to go into, was a perfect place for a child who liked to hide. Every time a pleasant sound was heard, the letters stacked up like snow.

In it, I became a hero. I had adventures, loved and dreamt. Thus, I read, read and read again.

I remembered the first time I was about to finish a book. It was like being deprived of the world.

The protagonist and supporting characters walked off with the sentence ‘They lived happily ever after�� and I was left alone at the end of the story. In my vanity and sense of betrayal, my young self struggled because I couldn’t stand the loneliness.

「This�� is the end? ��

Perhaps it was similar to learning about death. For the first time, I realized that something was finite.”

“It doesn't matter what gender, race or world you originated from. It doesn't matter if you are strong or weak, famous or not famous. Anything is okay. What I am looking for is passion. I hope you have the passion to see the end of this damn story with me."

- Kim Dokja”

“The story changed every time I read it. The story was over but it wasn't over. The story wouldn't end unless the reader gave up on the story.

“I am Yoo Jonghyuk.��

The coldest and loneliest voice in the world. The sleeping prince had finally woken up from his deep sleep.

“And you shall die here.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, Vol. 1

“The light of countless constellations was shining towards him but none of them could reach Yoo Joonghyuk. No matter how many years they had lived, they couldn't understand the regressor who suffered the destruction of the world twice. The next moment, Yoo Joonghyuk heard a message.

[The constellation 'Demon King of Salvation' is looking at you.]

It was a star that never appeared in the last two rounds. Then why? Yoo Joonghyuk felt like the star had been there for a long time.

Yoo Joonghyuk declared, "Get lost, Kim Dokja.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, Vol. 2

“⸢For sure, Kim Dokja would've said something like "Yoosung-ah, listen. There's no 'weight' to sadness."��

Shin Yoosung didn't agree with those words.

Sadness did indeed have 'weight'.

The despair of a person risking his life trying to save someone else, and another's grief borne from powerlessness while watching that feat unfold, would never carry equal weight.

In the end, to every human being, the most precious thing was themselves.

And Kim Dokja risked everything of his, always.”

“Jung Heewon unsheathed her sword and spoke. "I don't know anything about the future. However, I do know this. You said that you want to save this world? It's the same for me, too."

Her determination manifested in the whitish flames billowing on the [Sword of Judgement].

"That man is the world I wish to save.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, Vol. 4

“I smiled at him. “You are late, Yoo Jonghyuk.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, Vol. 1

“...Yoo Jonghyuk glanced to his side before speaking again.

“I have a companion already.��
I doubted my ears for a moment. This bastard Yoo Jonghyuk�� what was he doing now?

[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire�� appears late and looks around.]

[The constellation ‘Secretive Plotter�� is giggling at the situation.]

[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire�� is astonished.]

[The constellation �� Demon-like Judge of Fire�� is praying for the line to be spoken again.]”

“Eat the soil, Yoo Joonghyuk.”

“The author of the novel probably didn't think about stuff like this. However, it is up to you to decide on what you'll get out of reading the novel. If you only find trash within, then it'll simply end as trash. But if it can impart just a tiny little bit of deeper meaning to you, then that alone will improve this work in your eyes. Again, it is up to you to decide which one it will be. But I'd really like you to choose the option where you get to 'appreciate' your time a little bit better.”

“Han Sooyoung approached and raised my chin with her fingers. "It's been a while, Kim Dokja. You are still ugly.”

“If you want my bones, I shall give them to you. If you want my heart, then I will gladly hand it over.
However, you will have to risk half of all your Stories.”

“[A portion of the audience members are getting really curious about the taste of ‘Murim dumplings��.]

I sensed Yu Jung-Hyeok [999] flinch ever so slightly on my shoulder.

In the meantime, I handed the dumplings over to Shin Yu-Seung and Yu Jung-Hyeok as well.

The latter frowned and shook his head. “I don’t eat food made by other people.��

“Other people didn’t make this.��

He seemed deeply puzzled by that. Most likely, he had no idea what I was talking about. He then glared at the [Murim dumpling] resting before his eyes with some suspicion, but eventually made up his mind and cautiously reached out to it.

And very slowly, so very slowly, as if he was studying his new enemy, brought the dumpling near his nose.

“��.This aroma??��

That’s right, eat that damn dumpling, you bastard.

Yu Jung-Hyeok continued his pained deliberation over and over again, and in the end, brought the dumpling towards his lips very slowly. As if he was tearing into the neck of the enemy commander, he took a small bite out of it.”

“Did copyright exist for one's life, too?
But, was it okay to describe one's life as a 'work of an author'?”

“He's a pathetic fool, indeed. He was just some contracted worker for a no-name game developer, and his hobby was reading novels.
His specialty is to run his cocky mouth off, and he has this habit of throwing his life away so that we can overcome any and all impossible situations hindering us.
Someone like that managed to lead his companions this far.
Regardless of what the incoming conclusion is, this world wouldn't have come this far without him around.”
― Singshong (싱숑)

“But as he stood before the hard-earned freedom, he couldn't figure out what exactly he had finally earned.”

“The reason why she suddenly wrote the essay was to make me the son of a murderer, not a murderer.”

“Yoo Joonghyuk then powerfully threw Kim Dokja forward, but also stepped onto the latter's back �� and they began scything past the storm as if he was surfing the waves.”

“⸢Outer Gods' are unfathomable creatures.��
Those were some pretty irresponsible words, that's for sure.
Such words could be applied to just about anybody, not only to the 'Outer Gods', now couldn't they?”

“She could hear Han Sooyoung's laughter.
⸢You know this too, right? The last one to laugh is the winner.��”

“If this story can really save you... If you regained just a little of your memories and remember us just one more time... Then I'll keep writing the epilogue for you until the end of time, for eternity. - Han Sooyoung”

“Let's meet again, Yoo Joonghyuk."

The power of the demon king disappeared and at the same time, strength drained from me.

[The main scenario has ended.]

[Seoul Dome has been freed.]

A small black hole appeared in the air behind me. My body was slowly being sucked into it. My legs, my torso, my arms...they turned into powder and were slowly being sucked in.

"Kim Dokja! No! Kim Dokja!"

At the last moment, he tightly held me by the neck. However, it was already too late.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader

“I mean, you can just say there it is, so deal with it. It's not the issue with understanding it, but rather, accepting it.”

“This story is just for that one reader.”
― Singshong (싱숑)

“I laughed as Yoo Joonghyuk's sword pierced through my heart.

[Your fate has been realized.]

My body slowly sank down and Yoo Joonghyuk held onto me. "Kim Dokja."

"It was a really great story. Isn't that right?"

Yoo Joonghyuk stared down at me silently. I couldn't find any words and just watched. It was as if I had always been meant to do this.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader

“...I won't give up on this life."

Perhaps there was no one here who would understand his words. In the midst of the terrible loneliness that came from this face, Yoo Joonghyuk declared.

"So don't give up either."

He didn't know if it had been delivered or not.”
― Singshong, Omniscient Reader

“Joongghyuk-ah, we can save the world. You know that, right?"

Yoo Joonghyuk stared at me.”
