When I open my eyes again, I can still see the masked man pointing at the sky.
I think Iâm really seeing things. It is so unrealistic.
It is because Kim Hyun-seong doesnât recognize the man wearing the mask next to him.
I thought it might be because heâs out of his mind, but it canât be.
No matter how weird his head is, itâs not so weird that he doesnât notice the guy with his hand on his shoulder.
Kim Hyun-seong and Serapim didnât recognize him either.
T ran slated b y jp mtl .ď˝ o m What the hell are you talking about?
âYou already know the answer. â
This son of a bitch wants to play a quiz with me.
I couldnât understand what he was talking about because my head wasnât working right, and I even blinked once and saw him scatter like smoke.
I kicked my tongue for a whileâŚ.
âIs this⌠a hint? â
Maybe it is. No, you donât have to do that, do you? Look straight ahead, five minutes before it all opens. Shouldnât we be catching straws?
What the Masked Hero said isnât necessarily wrong. T r a n s l a t e d by p mt l .ď˝ oď˝
Iâm not saying I want to be provoked by some bullshit I donât know why. Iâm not saying I donât want to be convincing.
Itâs certainly not like us to leave our choices to others in the end. I can also feel that Lee is not the one who hit the back of the head, but the one who hit the back of the head.
Iâm not stupid enough to leave Lucifer with a choice. Youâve already done it once.
I donât know exactly what the terms of the contract are, but I can assure you theyâve been set up for each other.
I think I can understand that Hyunsung Kim can be made whole, and I think I can understand why he pointed at the sky.
A little more calmly thinking about the current situation makes me feel like puzzles are right for me.
If there was one problemâŚ.
âCan you⌠believe it? â
About whether I can trust him.
It wasnât like us to leave the choice to others until the end, but it was about whether he was really right.
What if the man in the mask is my enemy? What if I didnât erase my own memory, but he erased mine? What if heâs up to something and Iâm dancing on his palm? What do you think a fucking scumbag would do, not a masked hero?
No, I donât.
âThereâs nothing left to lose. â
A seed I sowed anyway. And no matter what happens next, this choice will never feel bad.
T r ansl a t e d by Jpm t l.c oď˝ We donât know which end this is going to lead to, but we only have one option, so we have to walk here.
In other words, itâs a crowd.
As we slowly look up at the sky, a strange light still filling the sky shines into view.
Ceraphym, standing tall, seemed to be judging what was going on right now, but I can assure you it wonât take long for him to make a choice.
It was because the hand reached out to Hyunsung Kim was flashed back up again.
âYes, itâs worth it. â
The external system wanted Kim Hyun-seong who had lost his personality, but he eventually regained his bond. Even right after I got it back, Iâm tearing up a lot of tears.
The system concluded that Kim Hyun-seong is not a suitable manager to manage his program.
It wasnât bad for meâŚ. In fact, it doesnât mean much. We had to make a choice sooner or later.
âKim Hyun-seong can be complete. â
Yeah, I know. I think I know what youâre talking about. Thatâs exactly what this is. Donât you think?
The protagonist, Cliche, is Awakened by the death of his precious companion. This is the painting you wanted. Did you run that program up there for this moment?
You said the candles were best lit before they went out. It didnât take me long to realize that my current state was the most burning. No, maybe the Masked Hero gave me strength. I thought long and hard, but I donât have much time.
I had to slowly put my mouth on Kim Hyun-seongâs face to quickly slit his throat.
âTh⌠only. â
I thought it would stop, but Kim Hyun-seong stopped moving. T r ansl a te d b y jpm tl.coď˝
âItâs okay⌠Are you okay? Itâs okay⌠Are you okay? â
The man who rushes in and grabs me gives me sight. Itâs right to say itâs okay here. âCause thereâs no such thing as a nice guy who says heâs okay.
âYes, Iâm⌠Iâm fine. â
A big smile wouldnât be so bad. I donât know how my smile was shining, but it must have been very noble.
I can tell by the look on Kim Hyun-seongâs face. I can see him looking at me with his face distorted.
Thereâs no way he wonât notice. Lee Ri-young is dying right now, and he canât know that we donât have much time to talk like this.
âHuff⌠huff⌠â
âSo⌠donât cry. â
I need to hold your hand a little bit. That way heâll calm down. I can feel their hands trembling.
You donât even need to read your emotions to know what state heâs in. I can also see you repeating what you said earlier.
âI⌠I found another way. Yes. This time⌠This time we will never fail. I donât know if you heard⌠Yes. Weâre going to start the cycle again. You wonât be wrong this time. â T ra ns l a te d b y jpď˝t l .co ď˝
âI⌠donât need to⌠â
âYes?â
âI⌠like this⌠â
Itâs not a bad stage for the Saint of Light to leave. I honestly donât think itâs gonna end badly if I tell them half the truth.
Thatâs what youâre supposed to do. A picture of Jo sacrificing everything from beginning to end, leaving everything behind and sacrificing again. Isnât it perfect for everyone to see?
âSo⌠I⌠Iâll believe you. â
With one of these lines. That would make you very nauseous.
âIn the meantime⌠I enjoyed it⌠â
Thereâs no chance of that, but if this was really the end, I think he would have said,
Iâve had a really good time.
âIâm⌠glad weâre together⌠â
Iâm glad weâre together.
âHuff⌠huff⌠â
âThanks to you⌠â
Thanks to you, I sucked some honey. No, letâs not talk about this. Thanks to you, I was able to get a good finish.
âSorry⌠ummâŚ. â
You better say youâre sorry. Iâve done a lot of bad things over the years. Honestly, it wasnât my intention, but I think I was too hard on you. In a lot of ways⌠Yes. Yeah, a lot of things. But letâs hit it hard. Donât you agree?
âI⌠canât keep my promisesâŚ. â
Iâm sorry I didnât keep my promise. Shiva. I decided to go play. Iâve got a lot of work to do after all, but Iâm sorry I couldnât protect everyone.
âI know⌠Hyunsung⌠Kang⌠â
I know. Youâre never weak. Youâre strong. Iâm not talking about the outside world. Youâre really strong in every way. Thatâs why I chose you. I chose you because you werenât just a swinging idiot, you were really strong. You proved that.

âPlease⌠take good care of others⌠â
Especially white and virtuous, you know? If Iâm really going to die like this, Iâm going to be cruel to them.
Take good care of the guild members and my sons and daughters. Give my regards to Ji-hye and Hui and stop by Kasgano sometime.
âIâm sorry⌠donât. I c-can understand. â
Donât be so sorry for what you did. Honestly, I had no choice.
Itâs all because of Lucifer and that nasty Seraphim. I know you didnât mean to stab me.
âIn the meantime⌠Thank you⌠so much⌠â
Just one more word to wrap this up.
â âŚâŚ. â
âHuff⌠huff⌠â
â âŚâŚ. â
âI w-want to see the sky⌠â
What time is it? I canât stand the sight of the sky right now.
âSunsetâŚ. â
Yeah, I miss the sunset. I think that would be an honorable death. I donât think youâll regret it if you finish like this.
I smile silently without knowing it. I donât know how heâs going to take the situation, but I can see him tearing up like chicken shit.
Now you look familiar. I think Iâve seen him cry more than heâs smiling.
âOne last time⌠I want to see you⌠again⌠â
I wanted to see you againâŚ
Itâs too bad I canât see the landscape I want because of that strange light covering the sky. I want to close my eyes to the sunset.
You know I donât talk to you directly. You know what I want, right? You know what you have to do, right?
Kim Hyun-seong doesnât cry like before. I can see him staring at me all the time with his lips clenched.
Is he remembering his brotherâs last request to share everything together? I thought it would be Kim Hyun-seong.
No matter what choice I make afterwards, he will allow me to see the landscape I want for my dignified end, for a friendâs request.
âMr. Hyunsung⌠I believe⌠â
Kim Hyun-seong slowly jumped into view. I didnât know exactly why the masked hero said Kim Hyun-seong could become perfect, but now I feel like I do.
We donât need Luciferâs power or Benegorâs. Kim Hyun-seong can stand alone.
âHuff⌠huff⌠â
He can stand alone.
âGet up.â
Yeah, fuck it. Kim Hyun-seong can stand alone.
âWake up, Kim Hyun-seong. â
The regretter of Altanus, whom I have chosen, can rise alone.
âWake up, asshole. â
âPromiseâŚ. â
âYes. Promise⌠â
âSunsetâŚ. â
âYes.â
Soon after, I saw the man who completely woke up, looking up at the sky without looking at me.
Slowly raising his sword, he pulls it up and revises his posture again.
I donât know if itâs possible, but I think I know what heâs trying to do.
It was then that there was a change in Kim Hyunsungâs body. We donât know if heâs aware or not.
No, you donât even know that your body has changed.
âShiva⌠X is awesome. â
I mean, that is literally X awesome.
Light seeps into the giant black wings. The red light that Kim Hyun-seong had instead of the light from Benigore changes his wings.
Instead of the dark black wings, it is the glorious wings that feel like looking at the rising sun.
The same is true of the horn above the head. Thought the horn would disappear, but a bigger horn sits on his head than ever before. This is also glowing. The red sunset shines brightly on him.
âHa-ha-ha-ha-ha⌠â
Not with the power of anyone, but with the power that you have.
No, I donât.
âThis is our specialty. â
You are the strength of friendship from a precious brother.
âAaaaahhhhh!!! â
I can see him stretching his sword of sunset up into the sky.
