Chapter 1: The mysterious being in the gray train
Chapter Text
When I opened my eyes again…
I was in a very familiar environment; I was standing in the subway train, the starting point of my story and of TWSA.
Almost everything was the same as back then, I was there with my adult body and with my incarnation clothes, Kim Namwoon, Yoo Sangah, Lee Gilyoung and the other passengers were there, but there was also an unfamiliar being with Victorian clothing.
⸢ Kim Dok ja be care ful ⸥
Before me stood a figure shrouded in an aura made of history itself. A faint, gray fog clung to them, a veil whispering of untold mysteries.
⸢ Str ong Ou ter God au ra ⸥
Klein's current appearance was not that of Sherlock Moriarty, Gehrman Sparrow, Dwayne Dantès, or even Merlin Hermes, but that of Melissa and Benson’s elder brother, because of the interference of this strange modern world.
A profound confusion seized him.
Is this my dream that represents my confrontation with Celestial Worthy? Why am I aware of this? Klein was confused, but still as perceptive as ever, and thus he started analysing the person in front of him.
He wears a white modern-style jacket, this feeling… Is it a sealed artefact? He has an Asian appearance, yet something about his face is unreal… Klein's intuition signaled that this man's face was distorted, analysing this man face more and more, he discovered something that resembled a wall.
The distortion began to disappear and reveal a handsome face.
This wall is like the wall that separates the reader from the story within the book… Could this wall be the Reader Uniqueness… or perhaps even a Sefirot? My intuition says that his strength level is comparable if not stronger than mine, could he be a Great Old One with Reader Authority? Klein tried analysing every detail that he could find in this figure.
Klein tried to do a small coin divination to point to if this deity was not a foe, sparks of probability came out from the coin, but it still gave him the answer.
Though uncertain of the divination’s accuracy, he felt slightly more confident. He said, “I am a wandering seer, whose name is Klein Moretti”, since Klein was in his original appearance, he used his past as a seer as a backdrop for anyone else listening to this conversation and for the deity, this implied that he was from the Fool Domain.
[ The information of this person can't be read in 'Character List'. ]
[ This person isn't a character. ]
This guy addressed himself as a seer, used a coin which gave him an insight of fate and I know he has a strong aura of an Outer God. I don’t know anything else about him, well, it does not matter if he knows my name or not, “My name is Kim Dokja, why did you call yourself a seer?”.
You can’t even deduce from what I said? Shouldn’t High Sequence readers be almost omniscient? And he transcends that, what a charlatan… Klein lampooned, and then a beautiful woman walked up to them.
“Dokja-ssi, is this your friend?”, she looked to Klein, “Hello, are you really a seer?”
Her eyes show curiosity, well I am not only a seer, but also a clown, a magician, but above all I am a charlatan who fooled history into thinking that I am a god until I became one. Also, am I speaking Korean? I think -ssi should be a Korean honorific. “Yes, if you want to, I could make a divination.”
“I would’ve loved to, but not today.”, Sagah answered.
Then Yoo Sangah waited for the right moment to speak, but the air between them was thick with tension she couldn’t cut through.
When no chance came, her smile faded and she quietly stepped away.
They fell silent for some time, as if Kim Dokja was waiting for something and Klein was waiting for any Dokja action.
[ The free service of planetary system 8612 has been terminated. ]
[ The main scenario has started. ]
In the palace above the gray fog, Klein was studying this world while the dokkaebi was explaining the true value of human money.
My body in the material world is losing its powers while this place remains unchanged, therefore until the end of this ‘scenario’ I will become powerless in the material world and yet still as powerful as before in this place.
I did a divination and also discovered that Kim Dokja is also losing some of his powers. This sudden change that happened to us should be related somehow to the sparks that came out from the coin in my divination.
I also did a divination to confirm this is not my world, nor my universe.
My Authority over the Door doesn't let me shift to my original world, only to other alternate worlds that are somehow like this one, so my world might not exist anymore, or there might be someone who won't let me shift to it...
Also, somehow because of my godhood as the Fool some sort of system is trying to contact me…
[ You can choose your modifier ]
1. The Key to all Seals
2. Voice of the Cosmic Lampooner
…
34. The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog
…
Not one of my possible modifiers mention the name Fool or anything related besides this modifier that is from my Honorific Name, therefore I will choose this.
[ You chose your modifier. ]
[ You are The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog. ]
[ Choose your channel. ]
…
[ You have chosen #BI-7623 ]
I can try to become the sponsor of anyone… Can I choose myself? Maybe I can exploit some loopholes… Am I becoming more and more like Amon?
Something suddenly puzzled Klein's mind, so he did a divination. It was a vague answer, but it confirmed his strange thoughts. How did Amon also come to this world?
In the material world, Klein started moving again, and a small window emerged in front of his eyes.
[The main scenario has arrived!]
[Main Scenario #1 – Proof of Value]
…
Clear Conditions: Kill one or more creatures.
…
How should I progress?
Chapter 2: The Miraculous Deal
Chapter Text
An eerie calm surrounded Kim Dokja and Klein Moretti, contrasting the escalating chaos on the train. Their gazes, however, were drawn to the source of this growing turmoil.
"A new world requires new laws.", Kim Namwoon’s voice reverberated in the train while he was beating a grandmother, influencing people around him to abandon their morality.
Although the Celestial Worthy's influence had corrupted Klein’s humanity, the vestiges of it refused this injustice.
Kim Dokja was lost in thought, having strayed into the feeling that this world was unreal, nothing but a dream, yet he still wanted to be with his friends. His original plan was dying in this first scenario, whether by the hands of the protagonist or the mysterious being, but now he wanted to act.
As if following his past actions, Dokja moved in Lee Gilyoung direction, colliding with Kim Namwoon and took the insect net.
“The scenario clear condition isn't to 'kill a person'."
After getting the first kill, he handed the grasshopper eggs to the boy, whispering near him that they were considered living beings, then turned to Yoo Sangah's direction and gave her a grasshopper. And just like that, without any reason to act anymore, he once again collapsed in a state of indifference.
Kim Namwoon went back to attack the grandmother but this time Kim Dokja didn’t stop him. Then, as if by a miracle, Namwoon slipped in something and fell headfirst into an insect, knocking him unconscious and, for him, completing the scenario.
“You did this, right?” Kim Dokja said, his eyes narrowing at Klein.
“...” Klein didn’t confirm, nor deny, instead he kept waiting
...
[ Main Scenario #1 – Proof of Value has ended. ]
[ 300 coins have been acquired as a basic clearance reward. ]
[ 100 coins have been reduced for the channel usage fee. ]
[ Additional compensation settlement will begin. ]
[ Compensation settlement is delayed due to an unexpected probability check.
Please wait. ]
Far more people survived this scenario than what happened in my time. Both the grandmother and her attacker survived. I don’t think there were enough insects for so many people to survive, logically, this scenario probability won’t allow it, it was like a miracle. Was this his influence?
[This is unexpected]
The dokkaebi appeared in the air.
[How did this happen? I was just watching the other carriages…]
[Oh, 32 people connected to my channel… Huh, the number of survivors is far too high. Constelations, I swear that there are far bloodier scenarios to come. But, how is this even possible? Never before so many people survived]
The number of stars connected to the stream was 21 in my world. Strange, I don't think these constellations would leak what happened here at this moment, even more when no bloody situation happened, so they might have come from outside this timeline. But even if I count every Outer God King, the other little Kim Dokja with them and maybe even Biyoo it would still be 27 stars, not 32.
A small kid reached near Kim Dokja to thank him. For just a moment, his expression softened momentarily, revealing a small smile, the one he had so often used to bid farewell to his companions. It was a happy yet profoundly depressive expression, as if he were seeing his companion one last time. Then, his feelings vanished, and the indifference returned.
Klein began reading the options presented to him.
[Sponsor Selection]
–Please select your sponsor
–Your chosen sponsor will be your strong supporter.
1. The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog
2. Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings
3. Abyssal Black Flame Dragon
4. Prisoner of the Golden Headband.
5. Demon-like Judge of Fire
So my plan worked, also what is Celestial Worthy doing here? Does ‘He’ even think I will accept to be his incarnation? Also why did 'He' get the first part of his honorific name while I am denied ‘The Fool who doesn’t belong to this era’? Perhaps it’s because this world’s era is, in fact, like my own.
[ You selected The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog. ]
[Now now, everyone has finished the selection. Rest here for a while. I have to go prepare the next scenario. I'll see you in 10 minutes!]
Everyone stayed quietly after the dokkaebi disappeared, until Lee Hyunsung came to talk to me.
"Hello, I am Lee Hyunsung."
"..."
"I wanted to thank you”, the soldier continued, his voice sincere. “If it wasn't for you, we would all be dead."
“Don’t thank me, I didn’t do much.”
"Yes, you did.”, Lee Hyunsung insisted with conviction. “If it wasn't for you, even if I had lived, I wouldn't have been able to live as a person. Thank you very much." Lee Hyunsung bowed deeply.
I felt again the bitter urge to make that specific smile, the one my companions always hated the most.
As expected, someone grabbed my shoulder. It was Han Myungoh, he tried once again to use his Mino Soft position to make me his subordinate in this apocalypse. But this time he was nothing but a ‘character’ to me and as such I ignored him.
As the protagonist of TWSA began trying to break the door, the survivors in the train organized themselves into a team and with the help of Hyunsung, started to get off the train, they even carried the unconscious Kim Namwoon outside.
Seeing the hope in their faces and knowing Yoo Joonghyuk would be there any moment made me decide that this is when my story should end in this world, he should kill me here.
“You can’t die now”, Klein’s voice cut through Kim Dokja’s thoughts, “Our destiny is to be killed by the man beyond this door, but this is not what you truly want, right?”
“If we stay here, we will make a probability storm that will kill them all”, Kim Dokja said, his gaze fixed on the ground. “They don’t deserve to die, I don’t deserve to be with them.”
“I ‘stole’ all the probability that was created in this scenario, if I continue to steal it, this hypothetical ‘storm’ is impossible to happen”, Klein explained, while smirking, “Also, if my deduction is right, you already survived this world once. Haven’t you?”
“Once I lived the scenarios by their side, but now I am nothing to them and they are nothing but characters of an old story to me…”, Kim Dokja explained with a profoundly gloomy expression.
“You claim that, yet your expressions make it clear you want to be with them”, Klein smiled sincerely, “Let’s make a deal, I will parasitize you until I find a way to return to my world, in return, I’ll let you live with your companions once again.”
Dokja once again had to choose, he could sacrifice himself to help his companions or once in his life risk their lives to be with them.
Since that moment I left them, leaving 49% of myself behind, I was certain there wouldn’t be any more opportunity to return to them. Yet, paradoxically, at the beginning of my story as an incarnation I was offered this very impossibility.
⸢Th is is go od for y ou⸥
This opportunity defies all probability, how can there be a good end without sacrifices? This must be a lie.
⸢It is n’t⸥
My only logical choice should be to refuse that false hope.
⸢N o Dok ja⸥
There is no happily ever after. So why? Why does my existence want this to be true? Why do I want to accept it?
This time he chose to not sacrifice himself.
As Dokja accepted, Klein began to pray, his voice revolting the true mystery:
“The Fool that doesn’t belong to this era;”
“The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog;”
“The King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck.”
Then, exploiting the very system designed to connect constellations to incarnations, he wielded his Authority of Error to parasitize Dokja and return the ownership of the channel back to Bihyung.
In a single, violent instant, the iron door which contained the transmigrator was obliterated, and, like the materialization of fear, stood Yoo Joonghyuk.
Chapter 3: The Reader Who Defies Destiny
Chapter Text
A dry, irritating smile twisted Kim Dokja's lips as his eyes met Yoo Joonghyuk's. Dokja even started to laugh, shaping a provocation from the reader to the protagonist of the story.
Then he escaped the train, fleeing from the one who would take this insult to heart.
For a single moment, Yoo Joonghyuk was stunned. The sheer absurdity from this moment, the blatant mockery, ignited a fury that burned through his usual coldness.
“I’m going to kill you.”
As Dokja fled from the monstrous human, a voice filled with curiosity and impatience echoed in his mind, “This is inefficient. Why not render him unconscious?”
“He won’t trust me as his companion if I do that.”
At that moment, Bihyung, finally reasserting control over his channel, began to create the scenario that should be happening.
[ A new sub-scenario has arrived! ]
[ Second Scenario – Escape ]
…
Clear Conditions: Cross the broken bridge and enter Oksu Station.
…
Failure: ???
The thunderous sound of the bridge collapsing echoed back to me, in contrast with the rapidly approaching footsteps. Yoo Joonghyuk was approaching, an unstoppable force. The distance between us was disappearing, marked by the sound of the bridge fading and his footsteps growing louder.
"Klein," I called the name from the back of my mind. "I need a specific miracle."
Is this how Old Man Pallez feels? The parasitic point of view really makes everyone look like a charlatan…
[ Miracle - Even Bridge ]
The broken stones of the bridge creaked as they realigned themselves, a temporary, unstable path forged from stolen probabilities.
A fist, moving at an absurd speed driven by the rage he exerted, struck the back of my head. The world went dark, and my consciousness almost disappeared. My body hit the ground as if it belonged to a dead person.
Before the dizziness could subside, his hand grabbed my neck, lifting me until my face was level with his.
“You survived this punch, so you used your coins”, his voice was like a low growl filled with rage, and his expression was turning colder, “Name.”
“Kim Dokja.”
“A strange name,” The silence that followed was heavy, disappointed at not getting an answer, he said “I have something I want to ask.”
“Ask.”
“How did that many people survive in the subway?”, he said while looking at the other side of the bridge, full of survivors of the first Main Scenario.
“We cleared the scenario by killing insects…”
Joonghyuk thought for a moment, until his fist drove my stomach with a brutal force, meant to punish the absurdity of my claim. "Liar."
He didn’t even consider using lie detection, he must think there is no chance of this being true… “You can check it yourself, it isn’t a lie”
[ Fourth Wall has detected the use of the detection skill Sage's Eye! ]
Sparks flew in the air until their existence was stolen.
[ The exclusive skill Fourth Wall has blocked Sage's Eye ]
“...”, Joonghyuk was confused.
「 I must kill him now. 」
You fool, you really should have used lie detection instead of Sage’s Eye, “You need someone reliable, you can't break through the 46th scenario alone.”
“What… how do you know?”
“How else?”
「 Is there a prophet other than Anna Croft, in South Korea? 」
“Can you perhaps use ‘Future Sight’?”
"Something similar."
I watched his confusion, the rage, it all coalesced into a single, terrifying realization that sparked something akin to excitement in his gaze. "You knew I would come here."
"Yes."
…
In the mysterious palace above the gray fog, Klein observed the scenario unfolding below. The threads of fate, visible to his divine perception, wove a pattern that was both absurd and fascinating.
He orchestrated all of that… just to be swallowed by a sea monster? Is Joonghyuk's concept of companionship based solely on offering his companion as a monster's sacrifice? Yet a deeper analysis reveals it isn’t just a mindless action, Joonghyuk's intention is for Kim Dokja to return…
I thought I would have to fool fate to make us survive the destiny of dying in his hands but I didn’t need to. Fate isn’t easily changed, and yet, it was. I tried to find the origin of this change in time and it all came down to the moment Dokja chose to live. The moment he refused to sacrifice himself…
He reshaped the destiny with a simple choice, my assumption was right. He is at least at my level. Since fate itself changed when he changed his perception, does his power function like a Sequence 0 Visionary? No wonder Reader and Spectator are interchangeable at high sequences…
“Great Master, your loyal and humble servant has finally awakened to serve you in this strange world.”
A genuine warmth touched Klein's spirit. "Arrodes?"
“Did you miss me, Great Master?”
"Yes," Klein smiled, his expression reverberating throughout the palace, "I was even afraid I would never see you again."
…
A single word cut through the silence: "...Dokkaebi."
[It sounds like you were waiting for me.] The floating creature's voice was a mix of amusement and curiosity.
“Of course, I have been waiting, are you going to take coins from me?”
[...Coins?] The dokkaebi feigned ignorance.
“You have to take coins in exchange for me failing the scenario.”
[Hmm… not your life?] A calculated pause.
“If it was my life, it wouldn’t be written with three question marks at the failure results. Therefore you left room for negotiation.”
"Am I wrong?"
[You are right, it’s impressive you could determine all this with such a clue.] His voice was filled with respect. [As you said, you can survive this sub-scenario if you pay coins, even if you fail.]
"How much?"
[Pay 7,400 coins. Then I will let you live.]
Thank you for the coins, Klein. If it wasn’t for you, since I had less than 1000 coins, he wouldn’t even bother to listen to me, "That is too much to pay."
[Haha, then won't you die? It is up to me to accept the coins or not. If you do something wrong, I can just end it here.]
"Then kill me."
[...Huh?]
"Kill me."
[······]
“You can't kill me?”
[You are really making me really angry. Look, now—]
“Low-grade dokkaebi, Bihyung. How are the activities of a streamer?”
[H-How do you know my name?] His confidence vanished, replaced by pure shock.
“Someone stole your channel for a certain time, right?”
[ A few constellations have doubts about your existence. ]
“How about we talk after you close the channel?”
[ #BI-7623 channel is closed. ]
The silence that followed was absolute, separated from the gaze of the constellations. "Now," Kim Dokja declared, "you are my hostage."
[What?]
[ You lost control of the channel #BI-7623 ]
Bihyung's form seemed to deflate, his entire being radiating pure despair.
“‘He’ has stolen your channel once again”, Kim Dokja explained, his words methodical and precise, “And no one will suspect a thing. After all, you were the one who chose to close the channel. Now, let’s negotiate.”
[ The constellation ‘The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog’ reveals ‘His’ presence ]
A fog of ancient, incomprehensible power oppressed the isolated space, spreading its ethereal tentacles throughout. Bihyung shivered as one cold, non-corporeal tentacle grazed his cheek.
[You…] Bihyung’s face was covered with genuine fear.
“Relax, don’t you want to be 'King of the Dokkaebis'?"
[..?]
“Sign a contract with us”, Kim Dokja proposed, as if he was offering a gift, “and we will help you claim the throne”
[I don’t understand.]
[What do you want?]
"The terms are simple. 'He' gets permanent control over your channel, and you will agree to everything 'He' desires."
…
Kim Dokja has a natural talent for fraud… No wonder I feel a strange kinship.
“Great Master, this humble servant has been struck by a very ingenious idea, do you wanna hear it?”
“What is it?”
“What if we create a private forum for the constellations of this channel? It would surely generate more engagement and devotion.”
So essentially a Twitch chat hidden from the incarnations… I should at least try, now that I practically own this channel. I wonder how many coins it will cost, it was already a pain to give so much to Dokja… No, it might not be necessary.
“An excellent idea. Tell me, Arrodes, may I also graft you to this channel?”
“Yes, Great Master! It would be this loyal and humble servant's greatest honor to serve you in this new world.”
…
[ #BI-7623 channel opened. ]
[ The constellation ‘Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings’ has been banned from channel #BI-7623 ]
[Constellations, I am here to announce something for you. We created a free chat function, where you may interact without the cost of any coins. Furthermore, a virtual assistant has been assigned to this channel to you.] Bihyung said, with a nervous smile.
This won’t increase any suspicion, since from their point of view I saved myself by giving an idea of making this chat to Bihyung.
I should meet Jung Heewon soon.

Chapter Text
[ Channel #BI-7623 Constellations Chat ]
[…]
[Prisoner of the Golden Headband] joined the chat;
[Abyssal Black Flame Dragon] joined the chat;
[Abyssal Black Flame Dragon]: Hey! Who do y’all think are the coolest in this channel? Kim Namwoon for sure is cool, too bad he took a nap in sponsor selection .-.
[Monarch of the Great Abbys]: Hey aby, he might be cool, but Yoo Joonghyuk remains supreme.
[Master of Steel] joined the chat;
[Demon-like Judge of Fire]: I find Kim Dokja’s resilience fascinating, he remained calm even when Joonghyuk wanted him dead, I want more scenes with them together. <3
[The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog]: I agree, Dokja is noteworthy.
[Abyssal Black Flame Dragon]: Your modifier is epic, sucks your incarnation bit the dust already
[The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog]: He is not dead, he also might come back soon.
Arrodes’s idea is a success. In three days, 14 of the channel’s current 35 constellations are in the chat. It is a perfect tool for fostering engagement and, more importantly, loyalty. This way, we won't just have viewers, but permanent ones.
[Anonymous Constellation]: Hey, what are you all thinking about the so-called “potions”, did you plan on giving any of them to your incarnations?
[Stealer of Modifiers] joined the chat;
[Stealer of Modifiers]: They are quite the intriguing innovation. I've already gifted one to my incarnation.
[ Stealer of Modifiers is now banned from channel #BI-7623 ]
[Stealer of Modifiers II] joined the chat;
[Stealer of Modifiers II]: Was this necessary? There is no need to ban me. I can come back quite easily and this channel even accepts anonymous users.
[ Stealer of Modifiers II is now banned from channel #BI-7623 ]
So Amon is watching this channel, that’s expected. I wonder who he is sponsoring… It might also be himself…
Maybe this anonymous one might also be Amon spreading misinformation, but I can’t rule out the possibility that it is true that there are potions circulating. I should ask Arrodes…
“Arrodes, is Amon the one who is leaking information about potions?”
“Great Master, this humble servant finds that the information originates from multiple points. It seems several deities from our world are here, leaking information about sequences and potions.”
…
Finally I found her, she was in a slightly different place than last time. The poisoning was all over her body, but it hadn't been made worse by the mask she was wearing. "Are you okay?” I asked her. There were clear signs that a fight had occurred.
[The exclusive skill, Character List is activated.]

Overall Evaluation: She is a 'Crouching Figure' with enormous potential. The attribute information isn't verified yet because the attribute hadn't blossomed.
A new category. ‘Pathway’ This wasn't in the web novel, nor in my original timeline.
“Dokja…” The voice in my head started speaking, “The ‘Pathway’ part comes from my world.”
“In short, there are 22 Standard Pathways, every sequence comes from a pathway, the lower the sequence number, the stronger someone is, and Sequence 9 is the weakest sequence of any pathway.”
“I will explain more later.”
I carried her to the station underground, the place without poison because of the scenario.
[You have entered the safety zone.]
As expected, some people came to bother me and her. As soon as they tried to attack me, I fought back and left them unconscious.
Soon, I saw some familiar faces running over.
“Oh my god. Dokja-ssi!”
“Yoo Sangah-ssi.”
“I'm glad. Really, I'm really glad!” Yoo Sangah stood in front of me with a happy expression.
"You're alive." Lee Gilyoung attached himself to my leg.
I stroked the boy's head with a happy smile.
"I knew you were alive, Dokja-ssi. Hah…” Lee Hyunsung's face was heavy with guilt. “I'm really sorry. At that time–”
“You shouldn’t be sorry, it was my choice to stay in the train.”
Then the unexpected, “But I should…” Kim Namwoon stepped forward, his eyes downcast. “I’m… sorry. For what I did on the train.”
I didn't know how to react to this, so I just accepted the apology and ignored him. Han Myungoh also came to this group, he began his usual speech, speaking nonsense until Cheon Inho arrived.
Cheon Inho greeted me, I took a look at his character profile and found that he is a ‘Spectator’, then I heard from Klein, “He is acting incorrectly."
“What is ‘acting’?”, I asked Klein.
“When someone becomes a beyonder from any pathway, he must act like his pathway name, otherwise he won’t digest his potion and will gain an inclination for losing control.”
“A Spectator who seeks the spotlight is walking the path of the ruin.”
Other members of our group also became ‘Sequence 9’, Lee Hyusung became a Warrior, Yoo Sangah an Apprentice, Kim Namwoon a Criminal and Han Myungoh an Assassin. I felt Klein giggling silently at the Myungoh’s pathway. Lee Gilyoung still hadn’t drunk any potion yet.
When the scenario that takes our food happened, my group went hunting monsters.
I went ahead because there was something I wanted to say to Klein, “Klein, I have a skill called 'Avatar'. I can give you a body.”
He accepted, and soon I used my skill.
[ The Character registered in the sixth Bookmark is 'Director of the False End'. ]
I wonder if she, or even my Han Sooyoung, is secretly watching this stream.
[ Your degree of understanding on the applicable individual is very high. ]
[ Exclusive skill 'Avatar Lv.???' is currently in activation! ]
[ You have used up 0.02% of your memories to generate an avatar. ]
[ The percentage of memories you currently retain is '50.98%'. ]
A second Kim Dokja materialized beside me. Then, he began to pray in a low tone:
“The Fool that doesn't belong to this era;”
“The Mysterious Ruler above the Gray Fog;”
“The King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck.”
His facial features began to change, a fog around him materializing, transforming the clothes he wore into new ones. The result was someone who looked cold, cunning, and dangerous, with a handsome face comparable to Yoo Joonghyuk's.
Finally, I have a body again. 'Attribute Window'...

The sound of others approaching reached us, “They’re coming. Since you look different from last time, what should I call you?”
His gaze met mine, his eyes cold. It was as if the silent depths of an abyss stared back at me.
“Gehrman Sparrow.”
Notes:
I probably won't post another chapter for a month. But, if I do post one, it will be this week.
