| Numinous | Yoo Junghyuk x OC! ON AN INDEFINITE HIATUS

The Demon and Saint's War

THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW

Kim Dokja's Company won the grand prize. However, an ominous feeling preceded any joyous emotions. The grand prize? Them? In this Duet Between Good and Evil? The reason for their ominous feeling was soon revealed. Liridona bit her lip and soon her gaze stopped to Kim Dokja, equally confused as her.

[The good or evil of this year's grand prize hasn't been determined yet.]

The message about good and evil not being determined yet caused a stir among some of the demon kings and constellations. "What does it mean that good or evil hasn't been determined yet?" The dokkaebi replied immediately. "The winners of the past 'Grand Prize' were decided by the consensus of the great dokkaebis, the absolute good constellations, and the absolute evil constellations. This time, we couldn't conclude for the first time." Liridona squeezed Yoo Junghyuk's upper arm. "You couldn't conclude? The great dokkaebis?" The demon kings and constellations looked confused. The constellations belonging to the absolute good or absolute evil would naturally vote for their faction but the great dokkaebis couldn't come to a consensus? 

"No such thing has occurred since the Duet Between Good and Evil started. No, it is the first time since the Holy and Demon War ended!" The banquet was in an uproar at the incident. "You can't identify it? There can't be such a story. The balance of good and evil must tilt either way!" The agitated constellations and demon kings cried out, It wasn't that they didn't understand. Many giant story scenarios were determined by agreement or manipulation of the nebulae. Just as Gigantomachia was sold as a type of tourist product, other giant stories were also sold as preferred stocks, making the good or evil of the story already determined. Yet our giant story was made by completely breaking down Gigantomachia. The giant story of Olympus' collapse was born out of nowhere. Since it was a story that wasn't scheduled in the beginning, it wasn't possible to decide the good or evil in advance.

"But... Our nebula must remain on the neutral side." Yoo Junghyuk was put into a deep trance. "You're a divine mage... Your side is supposedly good." Junghyuk looks down at the woman in his arms. "Good and Evil... How can you tell someone is good or evil?" The question of Liridona brought a stillness of silence to their table. Raphael sighed and said; "When someone does a bad thing?" Liridona shook her head. "No, it must be the reason why they did it..." Uriel said. "In my world... Good and Evil is weighed down by the sins and good they've done... If both are an equal amount then they're neither. They are on a neutral group." Liridona said with a conflicted tone.

A fight broke off causing the nebula to nearly split apart, but Han Sooyoung showed up and balanced everything. Causing the story to tilt to the neutral side. But, a new war has been waged and they must participate. "What is that reincarnation island?" Liridona ask. She hasn't remembered most of the important things in the novel, so focuses on the main character that's why. Just the time before, they were having a nice time that somehow ended up them needing to participate in a war. "We must return now to prepare for the war..." Liridona's emotion was haywire at the news. But then, a blinding light appeared in front of her causing her to back down. "Oh~ A news like nothing before!~ One must live one must die~ For evil and good cannot discern!~ A river of blood, a flood of guilt~ One must go on a war~ For neither good and bad can be discerned at last... A doom awaits your path Liridona~ Must be prepared at every time~"

The Demon Kings and Archangels were silenced at the sudden prophecy. Evil and good can not be discerned at last? "The holy book of Vishanti... is on the neutral side." Everyone was in a state of confusion. "The book is distinguished based on its wielder... The book is just a mere guide." Liridona trembled and went slumped against Yoo Junghyuk's body. "But you're a divine mage-!" Liridona bit her lips as the book floated in front of her. "I'll be on the good side then..." Uriel perked up hearing the message. "I'm a demon king, I'll take the bad side." Kim Dokja said also. Yoo Junghyuk looks at the archangels and Liridona. He had a short conversation with Metatron beforehand. So, naturally, he's on the good side.

YOO JUNGHYUK'S POINT OF VIEW

The 80th scenario 'The Demon and Saint's War' would soon begin. Currently, the maximum scenario the party members could advance to through the Context of the Constellations was the 65th scenario. In other words, we had to build enough stories to break through the 65th scenario and reached the second Context of the Constellations. After that, Our Nebula would also qualify for the 80th scenario. "The stories are steadily accumulated and we are smoothly clearing the scenario. In any case, the scenarios in the 60s have a similar difficulty apart from Gigantomachia." Kim Dokja articulated. From Demon World's Spring to Torch That Swallowed the Myth. We secured a different probability than before and cleared the scenarios vertically. In the scenarios in the 60s, no nebula could deal with us.

In addition, the promised advertisement with the Mass Production Maker began and the share prices of Kim Dokja's Company soared. At the same time, the advertisement of the Mass Production Maker appeared on the panel in mid-air.

-The scenario, has numerous paths.

Along with Kim Dokja's voice that was speaking, several cars on the screen were racing toward the portal.  There was only one car that didn't choose the portal. It was the X-grade Ferrarigini that Han Sooyoung was driving.

-Everyone has their way.

The X-grade Ferrarigini passed the scattered cars and ran through the darkness. The screen zoomed in on Han Sooyoung's face as she lip-synched to the words.

-However, the real power is to run on a road without a road.

The logo of the Mass Production Maker appeared on the black screen.  Liridona clasped her hands on mine as she stared at the screen. "How can such things exist? There's nothing like that back in my world..." I chuckled and shook my head at her.

[The constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' likes this advertisement.]

[The constellation 'Prisoner of the Golden Headband' wants the X-grade Ferrarigini.]

[Your ad has stimulated the desire to buy in some constellations.]

...There it was. Kyrgios clicked his tongue while watching the advertisement with me. The transcendent from Murim seemed unable to accept modern civilization. "I can't understand. Why ride that machine? I can run a lot faster than it with my martial arts." I nodded my head in approval.

"That's true," I said and look down at Liridona. "I'm hungry," I faced Kyrgios and nodded. "Let's go," I pulled her towards where the kitchen was and prepare something to eat for the both of us. "Will I be participating in the war?" He sighed and nodded, It probably is a good idea. She would be a good help to everyone. "I just hope for the best outcome..." The two enjoyed a peaceful evening with everyone after cooking.
