Chapter 408: 408
The dark but warm current of air approached us from behind . Since I knew whose Status that was, a subtle little grin automatically formed on my lips .
[To make be responsible for the Probability needed for summoning . . . . ]
“I’m still at an age where I’d like to rely on my parents, you see . “
[I heard that youths of the Korean Peninsula become independent early in their lives, but I guess I was wrong . ]
I recalled the day I left the relatives’ place for lodging in a hostel . I was seventeen back then .
I shrugged my shoulders and smiled . “Well, a young man like myself is needed to keep the balance, you know . “
[Constellation, ‘Queen of the Darkest Spring’, has incarnated into the scenario!]
Abruptly, a corner of my heart began tingling just a little . I ended up remembering the empty spots reserved for my parents during school events, back when I was still a student .
I always wondered how my friends felt back then . What did it feel like, having someone fill up those spots, having someone who’d come to you when you called out to them?
[Constellation, ‘Queen of the Darkest Spring’, has unleashed her Status!]
And now, I thought I could finally understand what they felt back then .
Persephone stood beside me and while looking at Hades blocking the intense wave of heat, spoke . [But, we agreed that it’s my turn to ride Pluto this time . . . him and his short fuse . ]
The heat blocked by Hades spread out like ashes in the air . Perhaps realising that a powerful opponent had appeared, the Apocalypse Dragon strengthened its momentum as well .
Kuwaaaaah-!!
Pluto at the far front was getting slowly pushed back as it continued to deal with the intense heat . That made sense, though; Hades was yet to fully unleash his Status .
[Constellation, ‘Father of the Rich Night’, is wobbling as he looks back at his wife . ]
[I told you that it’d be not possible with you alone, didn’t I?]
[Constellation, ‘Father of the Rich Night’, is looking at his wife with an unfortunate expression . ]
Judging from the unfolding situation, I could more or less tell what was going on here . On the armour of Pluto, with Hades inside, Fables were wiggling about and going on a rampage .
[Fable, ‘Listening to One’s Wife Would get you Tteok Even When You’re Asleep’ has begun its storytelling!]
Persephone sighed grandly and raised her hands up as if to conduct a concert . And right afterwards, small, musical-note-like objects began floating up from the tips of her fingers .
Like the introduction of a classical piece, the Fable started opening up .
[Constellation, ‘Queen of the Darkest Spring’, is mobilising ‘s Probability!]
Hades wasn’t the only ruler of . Indeed, Persephone was not ‘Queen Consort’, but the ‘Queen Regnant’ . Meaning, these two possessed an equal amount of shares of .

Hades’s attributes were darkness and fire . The guardian of ‘s night and hell was finally rousing up his true Status .
[Constellation, ‘Father of the Rich Night’, is unleashing his Status!]
For a moment there, an incredible impact force akin to my entire body being smacked around overwhelmed me . I wobbled about, my vision dizzily shaking around, but still, I raised my head to see Pluto standing up there like an incarnation of darkness and fire .
[Final Scenario’s Constellations are very dissatisfied!]
[Final Scenario’s Constellations are keeping a wary eye on ‘Father of the Rich Night’!]
[Final Scenario’s Constellations are complaining about ‘s interference!]
[A high number of Constellations are impressed by the participation of ‘Father of the Rich Night’!]
Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!
Agni from was dead, while the Constellations tasked with dealing with fire from both for visiting .
[Power of ‘Fruit of Good and Evil’ is wiggling inside you . ]
But then, I was both a Constellation and a Demon King, an existence that couldn’t be categorised as either .
A Demon King who had consumed the ‘Fruit of Good and Evil’ .
[It should be possible with you . ]
I nodded my head .
The nature of ‘Chaos’ was disorder . If it was me who went against the order of both, it’d be possible to go up against the power of Chaos, too .
It was then, someone grasped my shoulder .
“I can also do this . “
“Hui-Won-ssi?”
I saw the Ring of Chaos within Jeong Hui-Won’s eyes . Her hair, now bleached pure white, slowly danced upwards under the mysterious and ominous aura .
I instantly realised what she had awakened as .
“Very well . Let’s give it a shot . “
I then looked up into the sky .
Actually, I had been searching for a certain Constellation’s presence in the night sky for a while now, but unfortunately, I couldn’t sense it . If that guy helped us out, we’d be able to overcome this somehow . I even had a plan in mind for that, too… .
[‘Third Phase’ is commencing!]
It seemed that it was too late now .
[Demon King, ‘King of the Corrupted Angels’, is unleashing his Status!]
[Constellation, ‘Saviour of the Corrupted’, is unleashing his Status!]
One existence who possessed two Modifiers – Michael displayed his true power and rushed towards the forefront . Indeed, those Statuses were more than enough to make him feel confident about himself .
[Judgement Field . ]
His speciality that almost wrung me to death in the past began stretching out towards the shockwave of Chaos . It was the wall of judgement, bestowed onto this world through the divine grace .
Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!!
The so-called invincible Field was easily shattered, however . Forget about defending against the wave, it couldn’t even buy one second . Michael screamed loudly as he watched his [Judgement Field] shatter like glass .

The Calamity of the 89th scenario, the Chaos’s shockwave that had far surpassed that of the original storyline, proceeded to crush Michael’s body and utterly disintegrate him .
Yu Jung-Hyeok’s voice resounded out from behind me . “Dodge it!!”
It seemed that Yu Jung-Hyeok had realised something was off . This shockwave was definitely on another realm compared to the previous two .
I finished making up my mind and was about to step forward, but then, Jeong Hui-Won stood in my way .
“Hui-Won-ssi . “
“Please shut up . I knew something like this would happen . “
Her back, turned towards me, didn’t show any movement – as if she knew what I was trying to do . Yi Hyeon-Seong’s giant frame was still dangling on her back . I saw his sleeping face, having fallen into the steel-like slumber in order to protect someone .
I opened my lips again . “Hui-Won-ssi . If someone must risk their life, then . . . . “
“Don’t even try it . I’ll really go crazy if you do . “
[Fable, ‘Demon King of Salvation’, has begun its storytelling . ]
[Great Fable, ‘Demon World’s Spring’, has begun its storytelling . ]
As if resonating with her emotions, the two Fables began telling their stories . They were acquired through experiencing similar circumstances .
[Stigma, ‘Sacrifice’s Will Lv . 8’, is currently active . ]
And this Stigma was acquired by going through similar situations, too . I was aware of how much this Stigma hurt Jeong Hui-Won .
Even then, I still had to say it . “If that wave isn’t stopped here, Hyeon-Seong-ssi will die . “
I had to become more callous than anyone .
“There is a way to stop that . If you were me, Hui-Won-ssi, what would you have done?”
“I don’t want to hear it, so please!”
Jeong Hui-Won turned around, her eyes red with tears .
“Yes, you do have a way! I know already! You’re someone like that, Dok-Ja-ssi! You always have a damn, stinking plan that only you know, and when you use it, you’ll end up dying!”
“I think you’re mistaken about something . I’m not going to die . “
She didn’t possess the skill [Lie Detection] .
“Now is a different story compared to in the past . Hui-Won-ssi, you and our other companions have changed, yes? I’ve chosen to do this because I believe in you . That is why . . . . ” I spoke while turning my head away . “Hui-Won-ssi . You must save me later . “
I used the powers of [Way of the Wind] and [Lightning Transformation] to blow her back to the rear .
“Kim Dok-J . . . !!”
The moment I greeted the shockwave rushing towards my face, I roared out in my true voice with everything I had . [Surya!!]
At the end of my roar, a train rushing forward from behind picked me up . As it was created in haste, the train looked rather bizarre, what with only its front portion existing .
[Let’s go . ]
As I sensed Surya’s Status supporting me from behind, the train set off .
[Great Fable, ‘Torch that Swallowed the Myth’, has begun its storytelling!]
The train used the Great Fable as its fuel to advance forward – past the fragments of Fables and towards the Chaos’s shockwave .
Kwa-dudududuk!!
Accompanied by the impact force akin to my entire body being shattered into pieces, the debris of the train flew about all over the place .
Michael’s half-destroyed Incarnation Body trapped within the storm was now looking at me . [You bastard . . . . !]
I went past him and continued to press forward . It felt as if my consciousness was fading away . [The 4th Wall] continued to issue warning bells, and all the Fables I possessed screamed out in pain .
They were shouting out in one voice that we couldn’t withstand this . That we’d all die for sure .
Beyond the shockwave that reverted all existence back to nothingness, I felt the Apocalypse Dragon’s gaze land on me .
[You cannot stop this . ]
I felt that gaze and smirked .
You’re right . I can’t stop you . Well, you’re not a mere lifeform that can be killed, but the ‘calamity’ itself, after all . You’re ‘something’ that far exceeds Constellations and Demon Kings .
There was no way that a lone Constellation could resist against such a Calamity .
However, I knew of another Calamity of this magnitude .
[Constellations of have figured out your scheme and are freaking out!]
[Final Scenario’s Constellations are greatly astonished by your plan!]
[All Dokkaebis in the Bureau are looking at the scenario’s Probability . . . . ]
A scarcely-believable amount of sparks exploded and went on a frenzy in the air . Simply trying to call out its name caused such a reaction . I let all the Probability the Constellations had gathered explode out into the open space, and called out the name of a certain creature one more time .
A creature that, even though they knew its true name, no one would dare to invite to their scenario .
[Come! ■■■■■!!]
Beyond the shockwave, ‘s outer space could be seen; the storm of aftermaths produced by the misaligned Probability was rushing in .
The march of the gigantic fog of darkness began erasing the traces of stars and nebulas . I was overcome by shuddering powerful enough to nearly blank my mind as the giant eye on the far, far side of that seemingly-infinite fog fixed its gaze on this side .
I witnessed that thing back in the 73rd Demon World a while ago . Back then, it was merely a clone . It was a different story this time, however .
[‘Indescribable Distance’ is looking down on ‘Final Dragon of the Book of Revelation’ . ]
The Outer God born within the Chaos; the greater calamity that brought about the destruction of my Demon World was now approaching the Isle of Reincarnators .

Tales from the Triverse
Tales from the Triverse is part detective drama, part fantasy adventure and part space opera. I’m influenced by the likes of Iain M Banks, Isaac Asimov and ND Stevenson and work including The Wire and Gotham Central. It begins with an incident two hundred years ago which crashed three parallel universes together. Portals open up in 18th century London, sending England down a very different path. We pick up events in the 1970s, with the Metropolitan Police having established a new department to handle portal-related criminal activity. The story is about intolerance, immigration, multiculturalism and power. It’s about what happens when incompatible viewpoints are weaponised to seed discontent, and the efforts of some to create a fairer world. In the tradition of the best science fiction, fantasy and crime fiction, I’m using the setting to examine themes that matter to me in the real world. Who is it for?If you like science fiction or fantasy, or a mix of both, this is for you. It’s my first foray into crime fiction, but I hope if you’re a fan that you’ll enjoy yourself - especially if you’re looking for something a bit different. I write fiction that is optimistic, progressive and empathetic. Bad things can happen to good people in the stories, but the overall arc tends to be hopeful. Note that if it were a movie, Tales from the Triverse would be a 15 certificate in the UK.
