ALL NOVEL
Chapter 393: Leave It To Me
"Want to kill me? Sure go ahead if you can handle the consequences,"
'Wait, where did this bravado come from, Oh... did she just remember that she has a big constellation supporting her?' Dok-ja's face couldn't be any flatter as he saw the smugness on Soo-young's face. He was fully sure that she had tried to run away before she was caught by Haru and then she brought him here.
'Well, it isn't that I forgot, it is just that I would rather avoid taking the chance against him since I don't know what type of constellation is supporting him,' Soo-young thought as it wasn't like she could run away from Haru and Hae-in on based on her current abilities but, 'I was able to learn some more things about his ability, so yeah it was all according to my plan, Totally.'
"That depends on what you do from here on out," Haru said and Dok-ja didn't even need someone to tell him if that was the truth or not, it was very clear because of the big grin on Soo-young's face that it was true.
"Oh, but I had quite a bit of fun chasing after her," Hae-in said with a smile that did make Soo-young back away like a mouse in front of a cat.
'I guess she is dangerous in her own sense as well,' Dok-ja made a pledge to never run away from Hae-in since he didn't want to become the prey of someone like her, and to be honest seeing her speed he probably wouldn't even try to run away from her since it would be futile.
But leaving all of those stray thoughts aside, Haru thought he should get to the point.
"Well, it is what it is, now isn't the time to kill each other and destroy our fighting force when we are about to face fearsome opponents that we know nothing of," Haru said while shaking his head, why would he kill the people he can use as shields to hide himself and distract the constellations and Dokkaebis like this?
'That is the stupidest route to take,' Haru thought as he had full intentions to make sure that Dok-ja, Soo-young, and Jung-hyuk make up for all of the trouble it took for him to leave them alive.
But of course, there were many who didn't know of his thoughts so to them....
[Many constellations from the 'Absolute Good Alliance' are happy to see your benevolent act.]
[The constellation 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon' is saying you are too soft.]
[The constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is intrigued by your choice.]
[The Constellation 'Noble Child Of The Sun' is worried about your safety.]
[The Constellation 'Demonic Judge of Fire' is overjoyed to see that you are forgiving your comrade. She will support you wholeheartedly you three from now on and hopes you don't fight each other again.]
[Many Constellations aren't happy with your choices and have decided to leave.]
[20,000 coins have been sponsored.]
[Kim Dok-ja: See how mature he is?]
[Yu Jung-hyuk: Why are you telling me that?]
[Kim Dok-ja: I dunno, like take a few pages out of his book, no take his entire book at this point.]
[Yu Junghyuk: ...]
[Yu Jung-hyuk: So, you think you shouldn't die when you are the reason this world might perish?]
[Kim Dok-ja: ....]
Dok-ja understood what Jung-hyuk meant and... 'I am sorry for being talentless, ok? I am not the protagonist, so I can't do anything about it,' Dok-ja couldn't do anything if didn't even have the necessary talent to learn the [Way of the Wind].
'Anyway, I need to understand how much Haru-ssi knows and how much of my knowledge I can use here,' Dok-ja thought, and as he was about to speak...
[Hello, everyone, how have you been?] The voice of a Dokkaebi rang through the area, [Looks like the participants this time around are too Hot-headed.]
Everyone aside from Jun-hyuk exited the building and they could see a flash lighting in the sky as...
[We still have a week to go until the start of the scenario, but a lot of you are waking up the Disasters. Hmm, You must be Dying to play the next scenario, huh? Well I was going to take it easy since the Dokkaebi in charge was away...] They saw a few Dokkaebis they haven't seen before appear in the sky and...
'This is bad,' Dok-ja felt like things weren't going to be easy for him no matter what.
[How can I not give you a scenario and still call myself a Dokkaebi?]
[Sub Scenario 'Stop the Disaster' has arrived.]

'What is this one planning?' Haru thought looking at the one-legged red Dokkaebi that was grinning in the sky. Haru did sense that something was up but...
"It looks like we don't have much time," Haru said as the others looked at him after they read the contents of the scenario.
It was truly as he had said, there was no time.
"So, What are we doing now?" Hae-in asked since they had just gotten here and things were already taking a turn for the worse.
"Soo-young did you find the spot?" Dok-ja turned to Soo-young, as that was the reason she went out.
"Well, I didn't find anything," Soo-young said but the thing was that she wasn't able to search the whole area around the Poison Beauty's base.
'Yeah, that will be a problem,' Dok-ja thought since they wouldn't have time to fight off the group on their way inside if they don't find the proper path but...
[Yu Jung-hyuk: Idiot.]
'Wait what?!' Dok-ja looked at Jung-hyuk after seeing that message and he soon understood what he meant...
"Well, it isn't like we need a path, we can just take the shortest route there, just leave it to me," Haru said and Dok-ja saw the star pattern in his eyes appear once again making him dumbfounded.
'It looks like I was underestimating Haru-ssi, but...' Dok-ja thought as they were currently running into the Poison Beauty's territory like they were out on a run.
It wasn't that there was no one guarding the area it was just that....
"Show off," Soo-young muttered as Haru was running at the forefront taking out the members by putting them in illusions as they entered the base from the front gate.
'But someone like him is what I need to survive in this type of world,' Soo-young had already started to redo the plans in her head regarding Haru.
'It is so easy to guess what she is thinking,' Dok-ja could feel it as Soo-young was running next to him but there was something bugging him at this moment and it wasn't him alone.
[Kim Dok-ja: Isn't that skill too overpowered? He is putting tens of people in illusions at the same time.]
Dok-ja sent the message to Jung-hyuk who was being carried by one of Soo-young's clones, the reason he thought like this was because of what Soo-young had found out about the conditions where Haru's skills were activated but right now all of them were being proven wrong.
[Kim Dok-ja: Do you think he is using the King Attribute?]
[Yu Jung-hyuk: No.]
[Kim Dok-ja: What? Do you know what is going on?]
But even though Dok-ja asked Jung-hyuk just continued to ignore him even if he tried to ask more.
'Don't tell me he is using it at full power now?' Dok-ja thought but this seemed to be even worse since it looked like Haru wasn't even being serious till now.
'It should be around here,' Haru thought as he started to see a lot of churches in the area, according to Zenobia this area should be the main base.
And currently, it looked like the Poison Beauty was using this area for the meteorite and using it to get the mana from the people...
"That is pretty twisted," Hae-in said since she was basically using them to feed mana in the name of faith to something that will kill them all as soon as it awakens.
'I don't know what is happening but something doesn't seem right,' Dok-ja thought as things didn't add up, not the fact that Lee Seol-hwa attacked Jung-hyuk since she was one of the Ten Evils in the Novel, but she was now trying to awaken the Disaster and the most out of character thing here was...
"Who are you people?" Everyone looked at the beautiful woman with white hair who asked them the question.
