1025 Episode 62 Snowfield Kim Dokja (15)

Yoo Sangah groaned, instinctively wrapping her arms around herself against the biting cold. She felt the cold? It was impossible.

The stories of the entire area surged violently. Yoo Sangah instinctively realized that something dangerous was happening.

A raging, pure white snowstorm.

In that desolate landscape, only a single word came to mind for every being.

The stars in the empty sky blinked anxiously.

Lee Jihye, her eyes clouded by time, staggered and muttered.

"Dokja ahjussi, all alone like this—"

Lee Jihye and Lee Gilyoung, their lips pale, limped toward Kim Dokja. Yoo Sangah stopped the two of them.

"Jihye-ah. Gilyoung-ah."

At the same time, Yoo Joonghyuk’s magnificent story began to unfold, waking the party members. Lee Gilyoung and Lee Jihye, who had come to their senses belatedly, stood beside the two in panic.

Yoo Joonghyuk protected the group while gazing at Kim Dokja calmly. Something ominous was unfolding in the sky surrounding Kim Dokja.

The stars in the night sky, intoxicated by the story, groaned from all directions. Some stars uttered unintelligible dialects, while others writhed in agony as if having a nightmare. At that moment, they looked more like Outer Gods than constellations.

Amidst the gray void that had settled, all the stars were looking at the same ■■.

Home. That place was where the first star was born—and where the beginning and end of this entire tragedy were decided.

What awakened those stars was the shout of a myth-grade constellation. Along with the strong scent of salt wafting from somewhere, the sound of crashing waves could be heard.

One of the main constellations of the constellation faction. The myth-grade constellation of the <Olympus> side—Poseidon—made his appearance. Behind him, the great 12 Divine Thrones boasted by <Olympus> stood in formation as if guarding him.

Athena, the spokesperson of justice and wisdom.

Hephaestus, the blacksmith of the volcano.

Hebe, the goddess of youth.

Artemis, the hunter of pure moonlight.

Hestia, the mistress of the hearth and benevolence.

Hermes, the master of the celestial stride.

Also present was Apollo, the 'Almighty Sun', who had been born anew.

Next to <Olympus>, the constellations of <Asgard> stood in a line likewise.

Thor, the thunder of Thursday.

Freya, the goddess of love and cats.

Bragi, the god of the harp and horn.

Tyr, the one who lost an arm to the wolf of destruction.

With the mythical constellations standing as his guards, the God-King of <Asgard> finally revealed himself.

Odin, the one-eyed father.

Behind <Asgard> stood the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the <Emperor> and the Lokapalas of <Vedas>.

However, the <Emperor> and <Vedas> seemed reluctant to intervene fully, appearing to observe the situation from a few steps back compared to the other nebulae.

Stepping forward in their place was <Papyrus>, which had remained silent while conserving its strength.

Appearing to rebuke Metatron, who had been standing to one side, was the mythical constellation of <Papyrus>—'Lord of Abydos'—Osiris. Osiris possessed a colossal mummy incarnation woven from fourteen fragments.

As Osiris gestured, a river overflowed from deep underground, and schools of fish surged forth. Above the swirling schools of fish, the representative deities of <Papyrus> revealed themselves one by one.

Anubis, the Black Wolf Grim Reaper.

Geb, the Ruler of Earthquakes and Volcanoes.

Sekhmet, the Goddess of Slaughter.

Nephthys, the Goddess of Night and Funerals.

At the same time, a dazzling star radiated its brilliance behind them.

The mythical constellation, 'Noon Sun'— Ra.

As the mythical constellations representing the 'Round Table' gathered in one place, even the Outer Gods of the Calamity faction began to writhe in agony. The aura of the distant constellations had begun to threaten even the true bodies of the Outer Gods on the other side of the dimension.

Not all myth-grade constellations of the 'Round Table' had gathered.

<Tamra>, <Hongik>, and some other myth-grade constellations belonging to the Great Nebula did not participate.

Nevertheless, the 'myth-grade constellations' gathered here constituted an overwhelming majority, sufficient to represent the will of the Round Table.

Even <Kim Dokja Company>, which had already faced the stars in the final scenario, could not hide its tension this time.

At the overwhelming aura revealed by the myth-grade constellations, all the Outer Gods of the Calamity Faction squirmed like dried-up worms in a drought.

It was Kim Dokja who stepped forward as if to protect those Outer Gods.

"Yes, I certainly made such a promise."

Surprisingly, Kim Dokja was not intimidated in the slightest by the stature of the myth-grade constellations. On the contrary, as he continued to speak, the calamities that had been stuck to the ground began to regain their vitality one by one.

"But not now. The final stage hasn't opened yet."

The stars in the night sky glowed as if they were about to tear Kim Dokja apart at any moment.

At this very moment, their purpose was clear.

Yoo Joonghyuk, who had been observing the situation, spoke to Kim Dokja.

"No matter who you are, you cannot handle all of them."

Yoo Joonghyuk's words were not wrong from a common-sense perspective. On the other side were the leaders of the 'Great Nebulae', who had led their entire full power. If they were to truly manifest their 'Giant Stories', it would be difficult for even Kim Dokja to remain safe.

"Do you really think so?"

The moment Yoo Joonghyuk saw Kim Dokja's faint smile, he felt a deep sense of disorientation in his soul.

Come to think of it, Yoo Joonghyuk had never yet seen the true power of Kim Dokja, who had become the 'Oldest Dream'. This was because Kim Dokja had never once exercised his authority against his companions.

"Foolish stars, you cannot stop me."

With Kim Dokja's declaration, the air in the area felt thinning.

The narrative-grade constellations, their stature diminished by a mere single remark, groaned and stepped back. Despite being under the protection of the 'Great Nebulae', they felt burdened by meeting Kim Dokja's gaze.

However, the constellations had not come seeking him without preparation.

Poseidon raised his trident and unleashed a spell.

At the same time, Odin of <Asgard> stepped forward.

Yoo Joonghyuk narrowed his eyes upon seeing Odin.

Perhaps due to the fierce battle with Yoo Joonghyuk, a long, lightning-patterned scar remained on Odin's exposed upper body.

As if recognizing Yoo Joonghyuk, Odin stared at him with an unreadable gaze before speaking.

Yoo Joonghyuk's expression hardened.

Yoo Joonghyuk, more than anyone else, knew the sequence in which the 'Ragnarok' scenario unfolded.

That was the order of destruction that had to unfold in 'Ragnarok'.

However, the Nebulae were now ignoring all those procedures and attempting to appropriate only a part of that prophecy.

The One-Eyed Father, Odin, looked down at Kim Dokja.

His calm pronouncement continued, as if reciting a predetermined fate.

The moment Odin's Gungnir aimed at Kim Dokja, the record of a giant story fell upon his head.

With a roar, an ominous aura began to surge through Kim Dokja's entire body. It was a shock so intense that merely standing beside him felt like it would turn one's stomach.

Lee Gilyoung, his face turning pale, muttered.

"Sangah noona, this feeling, surely—"

Yoo Sangah nodded. They had already witnessed once the overwhelming aura emanating from Kim Dokja's entire body.

Yoo Sangah shouted as she fully unfurled her [Lotus Platform].

"No!"

However, as if they had already anticipated the joining of <Kim Dokja Company>, the myth-grade constellations gave an order.

A group of narrative-grade constellations surrounded Yoo Sangah, Lee Gilyoung, and Lee Jihye as if encircling them.

And once again, the probability of <Asgard> moved.

Once designated as a 'Great Cataclysm', an existence can never shake off that mark.

Furthermore, those who bear this mark cannot escape the stage of the 'Giant Story.'

Along with the ensuing [Fate], a shining constellation appeared from the <Asgard> faction.

Heimdal, the Guardian of the Great Horned Legs.

He was the protagonist of <Asgard> who would execute this [Fate].

Gazing into Heimdal's clear eyes, Kim Dokja smiled faintly.

"You have prepared an interesting stage."

The constellations' plan was clear. They intended to realize the [Fate] of the 'Giant Story' and cause Heimdal and 'Snowfield Kim Dokja', who had become the new King of Hell, to perish together right here.

"Do you think he is on the same level as me?"

As Kim Dokja slowly rose to his feet, the stars in the area stirred greatly.

However, the myth-grade constellations showed no signs of panic whatsoever, as if they had prepared for even that.

At Odin's command, the stars moved. As the portals opened, the myth-grade constellations of each nebula appeared, carrying massive 'cages'.

The moment he saw the cages, even Snowfield Kim Dokja, who had remained serene throughout, changed his expression.

"You... surely not."

A look of unmistakable rage.

Inside the cages were the 'Kim Dokja fragments' that the constellations had gathered until now.

Aaaaaaaah.

As soon as the scenario began, the little Kim Dokjas trapped in the cages burst into agonizing cries.

With Odin's command, the stars' brutal hands pulled the little Kim Dokjas out. In the split second before <Kim Dokja Company> or Snowfield Kim Dokja could react, tragedy unfolded in an instant.

The moment Odin's Gungnir flashed, the little Kim Dokjas turned into mythical creatures, unable to even scream. The intermingled stories of Kim Dokja flowed into Heimdal's body under Odin's guidance.

Amidst a tremendous storm of stories, Heimdal's incarnation body shattered. Heimdal's status, having transcended the rank granted by the power of the 'Kim Dokja Fragment', was undergoing a cataclysmic transformation.

Soon, his rank overturned even the distant landscape of the heavens.

Along with enchanting rays of light, Heimdal's entire body surged with the overflowing energy of the 'Oldest Dream'.

Odin opened his mouth.

As if responding to Odin's command, Heimdal stepped forward.

At that, the Outer Gods of the Calamity Faction, who had remained silent until now, also began to move. It was an instinctive movement to protect Kim Dokja, who had become the 'King of Hell'.

The constellations in the sky emitted a bright light. Ahead of the confrontation between the two factions, Odin, standing at the forefront of the constellations, declared.

Finally, the Twilight of the Gods—'Ragnarok'—opened its curtain.
