[Finally, the Demon King appears… ]
What is a Demon King?
The final boss?
Despair itself?
Overwhelming existence?
I don’t know very well because I’ve only defeated demon lords in games.
The actual demon king here… Is it the demon from Or the original demon from …

– Knock. Knock.
Water drips drop by drop from the ends of my hair.
The world you encounter after closing the status window…
It was dark.
The whole world is dark, as if the sun has been covered.
The atmosphere in the Cellafi Pavilion has changed.
Heterogeneous and sticky.
“… “
– Took.
I put down what I was holding,
– Tadat.
I went down to the first floor of Cellapy Hall.
-!!!!!!!!!!
And the answer to what I thought was the devil…
It was in front of me.
– Knock. Knock.
Falling drops of blood.
Lifeless messy hair.
– Yes! Because I will always be in Cellapy Hall…!
Slightly drooping hands.
-That… Hurry.
Blood. And blood.
Under the sofa, a puddle of blood that looked like it belonged to someone greeted me.
“Arya, Yeriel… ?”
My head can’t keep up with the current situation.
Humans have an intuition.
Something very… Intuition that something is wrong.
Where did you start?
That’s how I instinctively trudge towards the sofa…
-Fuchuk!
“Huh?”
Hot and tingling… The shock continued from behind.
As I lowered my head to the floor, something sharp and vague pierced my heart.
“It’s too big.”
Out of breath… Can’t rest
My body…
Sucked into a deep abyss.
.
.
.
– Belt ring.
-!
With the sound of the status window, I opened my eyes.
The whole world was red.
And I was tied to the cross frame.
[How is it?]
An unidentified shadow speaks to me.
“Cheuk!”
I can finally breathe.
Yes, it was just a dream.
When I think of it as a dream, I feel a strange sense of relief, unlike the current situation.
[The ending that humans like. Did you say ninja massacre ending?]
“Keosup cup…?”
[Well, the ninja didn’t directly show his face because you overslept… ]
Let’s calm down and think.
The ninja massacre ending is a meme in Korea.
And knowing that…
[Tell me what you think. Reader?]
I didn’t have to guess any further.
I hope he refers to me…
Because I said ‘reader’.
“… The Demon King is a writer, was it you?”
[Answer!]
Well, it was an obvious story.
That the final boss was a writer.
[You mean you thought a lot about how to end it? Let them enjoy it for a bit, then break it at a critical moment… ]
“… ?”
[But you keep climbing if you give it time. What should I do?]
“Explain to understand.”
At my answer, the guy sighed heavily, scratched his forehead a couple of times, and continued talking.
[First of all, the reader is more than I thought… It is said that he committed big things.]
“… “
[Where should I start talking… ]
He crossed his legs in his chair,
– Belt ring.
-!
It reached right in front of me with a snap of a finger.
[First, as you said, I am a writer. Well, originally, the demon king.]
“… ?”
[Second, And Were all made by me.]
It was rather shocking.
The original game
A fanfic writer’s novel Is also written by the same person?
[Third, embarrassingly, the future me loses to Kaeran Heath.]
“What?”
[That guy, that makes no sense. You copy everything you see. Does that make sense?]
‘What is this bastard saying?’
Or, Kaeran Heath… Wasn’t it the daughter created by the writer?
[He’s a non-standard human… Anyway, the moment I was about to be killed by him, I was barely able to return with the power of the demon lord. And hid for a while in another dimension. That’s where you live.]
The bastard went on with his words.
[But you can’t live by running away for the rest of your life, can you? Because I have my own family too. So the game I made is .]
“…?”
[That’s right. Contrary to what you’ve been thinking. The game Is a fake story I made up. And the fanfic Is the reality we are facing.]
“… You mean here… It’s not the world you created, is it really another dimension?”
[That’s right! It’s good that you understand quickly. Ok just this… I mean.]
Kaeran said he was afraid of dying in the future, so he made a game in another dimension.
This is information you really don’t want to know.
“What was the purpose of that shit?”
[…] ]
When I ridiculed him, he hesitated for a moment, perhaps because his pride was hurt.
[To kill Kaeran… No, I needed a real hero who could permanently remove the copy ability.]
Then he opened his mouth again.
[Regression consumes more energy than I thought. What can you do? It’s about burying what happened.]
“So?”
[There’s not even a speck of magical power in the dimension you’re in… So I had to build my own dimension with limited magical power. Because I needed a simulation to find the right person to make my wish come true… Yes… That’s what the Is.]
The black shadow turned its neck disgustingly and explained.
[Do I need to explain further? You were the one who picked and picked the puppet who would sympathize with my story. Those with a strong will… It’s easy to possess.]
His voice started to crack in a husky tone, perhaps because he was excited.
[Yes!!! You were very well suited… ! To think that he could handle the abilities of So skillfully… The day I got rid of Kaeran’s copy, you, a creature from another dimension, looked respectable… ?]
It is simple to sum up what he said.
Kaeran Heath is not a fictional character, but a real person.
Not only this, but Lily, Aveline, and Malissa were not fundamentally non-fundamental, but were actually people from another dimension.
And when this guy, the demon king, couldn’t handle Kaeran, he called me to fight.
The guy broke up and poured out to me.
[Did you enjoy That I prepared? I just copied the future as it was, but… Didn’t you sympathize with Kaeran’s disgust while reading the novel? That’s why he wrote such a long comment to me. Don’t we have mutual interests?]
“I changed my mind.”
[…] What?]
-Two.
I spit blood mixed with its shape.
“You are more disgusting. I don’t know how to do anything on my own… I mean, I’m going to drag people in.”
He was silent for a while at my tip.
[…] Yes. I guess so. As expected, you are my greatest masterpiece and a stain at the same time.]
The author’s form began to tremble.
[It was a variable… The power I can bestow on you with my remaining magical power was the early version of … But that… I never thought it would produce such a fucking result.]
He gritted his teeth and glared at me.
Of course, with a grotesque figure with the eyeballs open.
[Isn’t Andras beaten in a ridiculous way from the beginning… I just need to catch Kaeran, her baby… Wouldn’t it kill all the great devils… !!!]
The voice was loud enough to be loud.
[As a reward… ! Until the end of the game! I was kind enough to give it to you! It must have been a chance to return to your dimension again… Why the hell are you creating this situation on your own!!]
-……
There was a moment of silence.
And the writer’s voice was a little calm.
[Actually, I know, it must be because of those two years.]
“!”
As soon as I reacted, he said as if he had a chance to win.
[That’s why I killed him. How is it? Is this what you wanted?]
“… “
[Khahahaha! Now I can see your face! But don’t worry… If I kill you so easily, there’ll be no reason for you to listen to me. Because human beings hang on to hope. Kuhh black. hehehe!!]
He took a deep breath, then forcibly calmed himself down and said.
[…] Get out of your world Then, save those two years.]
Stay calm.
He’s still urging me to go back well.
In other words, it is difficult to choose the option to kill me, a being from another dimension, because it is a world line or a problem about oneself.

[Mission object]
1 – Graduation from Claris Academy without being paid or expelled. (Attainment)
2 – Block Kaeran’s ending. (Attainment)
——————————————————
Failure: The world line will collapse and you may be trapped in the eternal flow of time.
——————————————————
At the same time, I can understand why the first condition of the mission object was like this.
After returning, the guy who gave me the power to capture Kaeran needed time to recover by sealing himself.
It was probably about four years during the academy’s graduation period, so he probably wanted me to go to the academy quietly.
However, the Belial I touched yesterday is the highest rank among the Great Demons.
In case the inflation of my bug play reached this point, he used Belial’s will as a safety device and was released from the seal.
After I had a clear understanding up to this point, I cautiously opened my mouth.
“In a word, are you in a fucking weakened state right now?”
[…] Yes yes yes… You garbage reader. Still, it’s enough to kill at least one dog reader and restore the world line, so it’s good to put away your vain thoughts?]
That’s exactly what he said.
– Belt ring.
[※ Warning]
[You cannot use ‘Copy’ on the target]
‘Your daughter was yourself.’
Since I received the power of being a gamer from him, it seems that certain abilities such as ‘Copy’ cannot target him.
Instead, as a writer, if you leave me alone, every time I get stronger, I feel like I’m losing my strength.
Roughly speaking, the developer’s stamina to create content,
Is it to the extent of the twisted relationship between consumers who consume it?
[Kkeuk… Does it look like you understand? Now you can’t beat me So I’ll tell you with those fucking eyes.]
“… “
[Get out of your world before turning the heroine you cherished more than your life into a slut partner.]
“… Now?”
When I asked one last time, he started laughing like crazy.
[I don’t know what else you’re going to do, can I let you go here? Don’t test my patience It’s your last chance. Get off immediately!!]
“Okay. Free your hand.”
I readily accepted.
[Huh, don’t do anything stupid?]
– Basrak.
As he released the bondage while glaring at my eyes, I closed my eyes and pressed the end game button.
-Haam.
In front of my eyes as I pat my mouth with my hand and yawn loudly,
[After 10 seconds… Log out]
The familiar status window starts popping up.
Only now, the author, no, the devil started to smile.
[Thank you so much. I thought well… I’ll erase all your memories… Don’t worry?]
[After 6 seconds… Log out]
.
.
.
[Ah, Aria Bluebell… Did you say Yeriel Artina… ? Big… Ha ha ha ha ha ha!]
I’m guessing it’s not the devil.
– Lick.
He started flicking his tongue as if he was licking his lips.
[After 4 seconds… Log out]
‘After.’
Reluctantly, I opened my right eye and said something to him.
“Thank you.”
[Keuk kuk kuh ha… ?]
“Because you’re not Korean, you’re an absolute evil.”
[What?]
“If you possess it again, I will kill the four babies first.”
With the reply of the writer who smiled and said ‘Please!’…
[After 0 seconds… Log out]
My body disappeared in an instant.

When I came to my senses like that,
This is South Korea. It was my officetel.
