Even with Shin Soo Ah next to me, the boundary was encroaching, and if I faced my fate alone, there was no chance of winning.
However, since there was no way for Shin Soo-ah to come to this new place with him, Seo Kang-rim chose another method.
It was to accept her as his god.
-Kang, Kaga River!
A green and gold aura surrounded his body.
A liveliness that was incomparable to when they had been together surrounded Seo Kang-rim.
It felt like a giant tree had grown inside my body.
The energy that seems to support oneself when one is about to collapse.
The world was distorted, but I could still breathe.
Still, I was able to fight.
[The ability ‘Acceleration’ is activated!]
He was using only the bare minimum of magical power, and all remaining divine power and magical power were being channeled into strengthening his body.
Every time Shin Soo Ah’s divine power flowed in, he became faster and sharper.
The frequency of wounds on Sookmyung’s body has increased.
Since the director died while in a state of trance, the divine power of fate was significantly lost.
But even so, fate was divine.
Even at this moment, many people believed in fate.
-Kwarrung!
A stream of water rose up like thorns from the ground and pierced Seo Kang-rim’s body.
Blood flowed from his limbs.
Taking advantage of the gap left by the attack, Sookmyung jumped in.
“Now I guess I need to figure out the topic.”
-Whoa!
With one wave of her hand, the wind turned into a blade that sliced through Seo Kang-rim’s skin.
Even as red blood spurted out, the light in his eyes remained vivid.
Eyes so clear that they’re tiresome.
When he looked into those eyes, Sukmyeong felt strangely upset.
In any case, it is a predetermined future that Seo Kang-rim will become his vessel.
Even if he struggled, it was just entertainment to Sookmyung.
It’s just a fun exercise to see how sturdy the vessel is.
It must have been so.
Just a moment ago, I was enjoying looking at those rebellious eyes, but at some point, I started to feel discomfort.
What is this discomfort?
It was a feeling I hadn’t felt in such a long time that I couldn’t figure out why.
She just attacked Seo Kang-rim to relieve her anger and extinguish the light in his eyes.
“Even so, everything is decided!”
Her eyes began to glow blue.
The figures of the divine beings that had been walking around disappeared into a halo of light, and then were replaced with divine power and permeated the body of the fated one.
The future began to reflect in his blue eyes.
-Crash!
The sound of Seo Kang-rim’s left arm breaking was heard.
He tried to escape in a hurry, but before he knew it, fate was standing there.
The magic blade passed by Seo Kang-rim’s vital spot just barely.
It was only the mercy of fate that did not kill him.
It’s a precious vessel, so I can’t kill it.
Instead, you can make them cry out for death.
Sleep was becoming tinged with blood.
A surface that reflects the future predicted by fate.
As the image of Seo Kang-rim, lying on the ground and crawling, was reflected on the surface of the water, the real Seo Kang-rim soon became the same.
But even though he fell, Seo Kang-rim stood up again.
It was strange to wonder where such obsession came from.
As Seo Kang-rim struggled as if he was going to slaughter all the Yejis, Sook-myung was able to find out the reason for this unpleasantness.
When Myeong-un left him, Sook-myeong felt this kind of unpleasantness.
She thought that Anonymous would be proud of her and worship her.
However, the unknown betrayed him and devoted the rest of his life to killing him.
It was a future he had not foreseen.
She was more upset about not being able to fully control him than about the anonymous betrayal.
I still feel the same emotions I felt back then.
Seo Kang-rim was trying to escape from his own control.
It was grazing the back of her neck with a feeling of discomfort, and also ominousness.
-Crunch!
Red blood flowed down Sookmyung’s cheek.
It was a minor wound compared to what Seo Kang-rim had suffered, but she couldn’t hold back her anger.
That’s my bowl, it’s my property.
However, Seo Kang-rim did not give up even though his limbs were being crushed.
Was not giving in.
As if fate doesn’t matter.

Seo Kang-rim’s scream tore through the air as a fierce attack flew in.
Any hope of foreknowledge had long since been shattered.
That’s when something began to change.
[The enemy denies fate!]
[The future predictions start to fall apart!]
[An error has occurred in the fate tuning!]
The foresight of fate was now of no use.
It’s not a matter of speed like before.
It is no longer possible to read Seo Kang-rim’s fate.
What she saw was not the future, but an illusion.
[The target is an entity outside the rules!]
[The fate ranks begin to distort!]
[The target’s fate changes!]
Just a small insect, an orphan no one cared about, a loser twisted into a miserable figure.
Even though victory or defeat is obvious, and even though surrender would give you everything.
He was swinging his sword while blocking the immutable god and his whole body was soaked in blood.
There was a separate evaluation that suited that kind of person.
[The target’s fate level increases!]
[The target’s fate grade changes to ‘Shin Sam-Pum (神三品)’!]
[The target’s fate grade changes to ‘Divine Second Grade’!]
As each second passed by in countless pieces, his fate was blossoming cruelly.
With each step he took, the energy behind him grew stronger.
As the small human looked like a giant, the spirit sword screamed.
[The target’s fate grade changes to ‘Shin Ilpum (神一品)’!]
[The target’s fate level increases!]
[An error occurred!]
[Unable to measure target’s grade! It’s out of grade!]
[The target’s fate grade changes to ‘Fate Breakthrough’!]
The dozens of layers of magical power created by fate shattered and scattered.
As the counterattack came, Seo Kang-rim’s left ear was blown off and blood sprayed out, but he did not back down.
Sukmyeong was bewildered by the emotions she felt for the first time in her life.
The name of that emotion was fear.
[The target’s spirit changes!]
[Seo Kang-rim is given the divine power, ‘The Flame that Defies Fate’!]
-Crunch!
A red line ran across Sookmyung’s shoulder and chest.
It was a fatal wound.
Sookmyung couldn’t help but be flustered.
This was not a rule he had set for himself.
This was not what he meant.
“This insignificant insect… … !”
Everything is decided by yourself.
A person’s future is something that he or she decides from the moment of birth.
The unchanging, eternal truth, isn’t that destiny?
-Kwaaaaah!
The anger that boiled from the depths of Sukmyeong’s soul ignited like flames along with divine power.
The shape of fate began to change.
A huge beast with white fur all over its body burning like blue flames trampled Seo Kang-rim.
-Crack!
A shock that felt like his whole body was being crushed hit Seo Kang-rim.
It was a situation where it wouldn’t have been strange if it had just become a mess.
The hem of his clothes seemed to scream.
[‘Seo Kang-rim’s’ near-death state has been confirmed! The special effect of ‘Borderline of Life and Death’ is activated!]
Although his vision was blurry due to the agony of death, Seo Kang-rim was observing the state of his fate instead of despairing.
Even though it had changed into a threatening appearance, blood continued to flow out from the places where the sword passed through.
A groan that did not fit the fateful relationship leaked out.
-Krrruk… … !
A sloppy puddle of blood was trampled underfoot.
The water level began to rise little by little as the blood continuously flowed from Sookmyung’s chest.
At that moment, Seo Kang-rim disappeared.
-Ugh!
Before he knew it, Seo Kang-rim jumped over Sook-myung’s head and thrust his sword into his neck.
Compared to the changed fate, his body was too light.
But at that moment, Sukmyeong felt the sword stuck in her neck become heavier.
[The ability ‘Thieving Rat’ is activated!]
[Borrowing the appearance of ‘Bulgasal’!]
Before I knew it, the demon was biting the sword hilt.
As the weight was applied, the sword came down, tearing through flesh and bone in long strokes.
Blood flowed like a waterfall from the torn wound.
At that moment, as Bulgasal’s body was soaked with blood, foam rose from Sookmyung’s mouth and a strange voice leaked out.
“Where did you get the courage to come from, to me!”
-Kwaaang!
Sukmyeong struck the scorpion with his forelegs, crushed its head, and sunk his teeth into it.
But the fateful attack did not cause any damage.
Taking advantage of the gap where all attacks were destroyed by the special effect of the boundary between life and death, Seo Kang-rim continued to stab Sook-myung’s body with his sword.
The white fur of the fate has now been dyed red to the point where its original color is unrecognizable.
Now it seemed like the odds were in Seo Kang-rim’s favor.
As if making a last desperate attempt, Sukmyeong began to shoot out sharp magical powers.
At that moment, Seo Kang-rim was trying to avoid the attack and strike Sook-myung with all his might.
-Phew!
One of the attacks dug deep into Seo Kang-rim’s abdomen.
Pain that seeps into the bones.
It was a pain so severe that it was hard to bear when I was on the verge of death.
[‘Border of Life and Death’ failed to block this attack!]
The shock released the thief and he buried his face in the water.
The boundary between life and death is an item that reflects attacks with a 99% probability.
Although the odds of failure were only 1%, luck was not on his side until this moment.
I tried to get up, but it wasn’t easy.
In human form, he crawled on the floor like an insect.
Fate had also returned to its original form, but it looked completely different from when I first saw it.
She was trying to stop the blood from flowing out of her neck.
His white hair was soaked with fatigue and his face with pain, but not as much as Seo Kang-rim’s.
Seo Kang-rim couldn’t even breathe properly.
Fate trampled on Seo Kang-rim’s back.
“Did you think there was hope?”
Seo Kang-rim didn’t dare to shake her off.
Fate looked down at him as if she found him ridiculous, as he lay barely gasping for breath beneath her feet.
“Are you thinking of accepting me even now?”
Seo Kang-rim’s body wriggled beneath his feet.
It meant rejection.
Sukmyeong smiled, showing her blood-stained teeth.
“Yes, you always have. I know you won’t accept me even if I die. You’ve done it thousands of times.”
How many thousand times?
The word dug into my head, which was dizzy with pain.
A question flashed through Seo Kang-rim’s eyes, which were sparkling with rebellion.
Sukmyeong looked at him as if she found him funny.
“In the thousands of lives you don’t remember, you have never once surrendered to me.”
As if he was about to step aside, Sookmyung grabbed the fallen Seo Kangrim by the collar and lifted him up.
The limp body was dragged along the floor.
The moment Sookmyung placed her hand on Seo Kangrim’s forehead, memories flashed before her eyes and struck her like lightning.
In my memory, there was Seo Kang-rim, myself.
But it was a sight I had never seen before.
At some point, Seo Kang-rim was in a hospital room, at some point, he was locked up somewhere, and at some point, he was locked up in a prison.
Fates that never came to him.
But they were all fates they had experienced.
The things Baekyoung had experienced while returning.
Thousands of lives, all miserable and unhappy.
But throughout all his life, Seo Kang-rim ultimately rejected fate.
More shocking than the memories of my past life was the fact that fate had shown me this.
He asked with trembling eyes.
“You, regress… … .”
Was fate aware of the regression?
Sukmyeong smiled with her mouth curled.
“I knew it. Do you think Baekyoung escaped from there on his own in the first place?”
