#Episode 123
The Black Goblin looks around with strange eyes.
Everything was frozen. Even the Black Goblin’s body was frozen.
[It’s interesting. With this level of ability… … That doesn’t change the fact that I’m weak.]
The black goblin flicked his frozen hand.
Then, first the ice on his body melted, and secondly all the ice around him broke.
To the frozen Jamie, the Black Goblin did nothing more. He just sighed as if he was bored.
[The story of the stars hasn’t even begun yet. You will become stronger than you are now. Right now, you are so weak that your words have no persuasive power or strength. So just shut up and stay where you are.]
The Black Goblin looked up at the sky for a moment. There was a huge circle there, made of some kind of material that was extremely bright and seemed very solid. It was even huge.
[Survival of the fittest.]
A smile appears on the corner of the Black Goblin’s mouth.
[The weak are eaten by the strong, that is the only truth in this world. If a star does not meet the standards of the ascenders, it is not worth living. You have achieved peace without any price and lived without any price. Now that is over.]
The Black Goblin raised his head and looked at the four Earthlings.
[My name is Goeurun, the King of the Black Goblins and the General Manager of Phase 2.]
Three of the four unique Awakeners in this place.
Jamie Wilson, Nicola Benzano, Isabella Kane.
These three were silent.
Because Goeuroon’s momentum was no joke.
He was just there, devouring everything around him.
A being that can put pressure on others just by existing.
These three people have never seen such a being in their lives.
Only one.
Jinsong was different.
“Can I ask you a question?”
[… … Try it.]
“You said you were the manager of Star Story Phase 2, so are you also the manager of Phase 3 and Phase 4?”
[… … Look at this, your information power is quite amazing.]
“Does that answer my question?”
[No, that’s not true. Okay. You are more than enough to be treated as something like a strong person. So I’ll answer. I’m not the manager of phase 3 and phase 4. There may or may not be managers. I only manage phase 2.]
then.
“What happens if you die?”
[… … I… … am dying?]
“The world is vast and there are many unpredictable things. This is only an assumption of what-if scenarios. Whether it’s a story about stars or something else, we plan to see it through to the end, but if you die in the middle and the story stops, it would be a disaster. Right?”
[Haha… … Hahahahahahahahaha!]
Ahahahahahahahahaha.
Goeuroon laughed. He laughed endlessly.
He laughed so hard that the word crazy really suited him.
My stomach hurts, he said, grumbling.
[Wow… … Ahahaha, that’s amazing. It seems like you know more information than I thought… … Okay. This star #2403 seems pretty fun. I don’t usually give out information for free, but I liked you. That distribution, that drive, that confidence. I’ll tell you a story that can only be answered if you give me 100 achievement points.]
Goeuroon stood up from his seat.
[The story of the stars ends with phase 4. If you finish this phase 4, star #2403 will gain complete freedom. Of course, your current powers will also be completely maintained. Maybe you will be able to go beyond the next stage, not just the current power that is at the limit. Is that what you wanted to hear?]
“……yes.”
To be honest, Jinsong was secretly surprised.
Should I say that he is too quick-witted?
He simply asked if he was the manager for the next phase, and skipped the next question and the next, and Gowoon answered.
It was the answer that Jinsong wanted to hear the most, and it was the answer that not only Jinsong wanted to hear, but everyone here and everyone watching this video wanted to hear.
The trials of this system, or to be precise the story of the stars, end in phase 4.
When that time comes, everyone will be free.
Of course, there will be a pretty big mess by then, but it’s still better than having a system or something. We’ll think about that when the time comes.
[I gave you this information, but it would be rude to just keep your mouth shut, so I have a question for you. Could you please answer it?]
“Try it. Ask a question.”
[Who told you that?]
“What?”
[You know what? Who told you? That the story of the stars goes up to phase 4.]
Jinsong-i smiled strangely for a moment and spoke to Goeuroon using the ‘Message Transmission’ magic.
-Six Paths of Destiny.
Jin Song-i decided that it was right to hide it from the public. And she was right.
When Gowoorun heard that name, his eyes widened. It was clear that he was very flustered. Not only did his eyes widen, but he even staggered from where he was standing for a moment.
[… … This is unexpected. That loser, that idealistic rascal, is talking nonsense here? Okay. Okay.]
Goeuroon was now truly embarrassed.
The Six Paths of Destiny.
Goeuroon knows the weight of that name.
Then a question occurred to me.
‘Why am I only finding out about this now?’
His brow furrowed. Originally, Gowoorun was very careful about controlling his facial expressions, but at this moment, he couldn’t do that.
Because he realized what this fact meant.
‘A considerable number of the constellations were paying attention to Jinsong. There is no way they would not have known this fact.’
There is only one.

‘You kissed. You little bastards.’
Even if the Six Paths Sage is considered an ‘enemy’ on Earth, he is not like that anywhere else. The constellations know what he does and what he has accomplished. They know it even through word of mouth.
It’s supported.
Gowoorun, who had been staring at Jinsong, continues speaking.
[I got more information than I thought. If I convert this into points, it would be enough for 200 achievement points. So I’ll give you some good information.]
What on earth are you trying to say?
Jinsong was puzzled. Is this the amount of information?
First, I listened to what Goeuroon had to say.
[You can think of Phase 1 so far as a tutorial. Phase 2 from now on is the real thing, and if you’re weak, you’ll definitely die. If you’re stupid, you’ll die. If you’re arrogant without any skills to back it up, you’ll die. If you can’t judge the situation and climb up, you’ll die. A world that’s completely different from Phase 1 will unfold.]
“… … .”
[Phase 2, Chapter 1 is focused on making this star #2403 a land suitable for the story of the stars. There are too many cities and too many people. The ‘elves’ that appeared in each city today will completely attack your bases, reduce the population and reduce the number of cities that were there.]
Jinsong, who had been quietly listening to Goeuroon’s words, asked.
“Isn’t the information too limited?”
[Limited? What do you mean?]
“Please tell me how to reduce it.”
[… … Okay. You deserve it, so I’ll tell you. It’s an infection.]
“infection?”
[If the ‘saliva’ of the elves enters the body of a living being, the saliva will soon become a parasite and devour the living being. A living being infected with the saliva will have its heart stopped and lose its reason. However, it can move. Its memories will be completely lost, but its abilities will remain.]
This much information had already been figured out.
[I think you guys call these ‘zombies’, and well, that’s not wrong. But you’re not curious about this, are you? Most of this information is probably already known.]
Of course.
Goeuroon continued speaking immediately.
[You’re probably wondering this. You wanted to hear this. Infected entities will inevitably die. I know from experience that there’s no point in treating them.]
Jinsong’s eyebrows furrow.
It was the information I most wanted to hear, but conversely, it was also the information I least wanted to hear.
Goeuroon continues speaking.
[The total number of elves is 150.]
If you look at the numbers that appear in each major city, that number is roughly correct.
[If you kill all 150 elves, the ‘Emperor’ will appear, and as you all know, the condition for clearing phase 2, chapter 1 is to kill this Emperor.]
“What if I can’t kill you?”
[I can’t tell you that much, because what I’m going to say from now on will settle all the differences.]
“… … .”
[The number of infected will increase enormously. It could increase by hundreds of thousands or millions in a single day. You know what I mean.]
I know, I can’t not know. Because it’s happening right now.
[It means it’s a race against time, and as time goes by, it will be nearly impossible for you all to kill the increasing number of infected, right? But there is only one way.]
“What is that?”
[You just have to kill the Emperor. If you kill the Emperor, ‘all the infected’ here will lose their biological responses immediately, and you won’t have to deal with the infected.]
Goeuroon continued speaking with a smile that seemed to indicate that he was enjoying himself.
[Those who are frustrated because their ranks are blocked, those who cry out at their own limitations, if you prove yourself, you will receive the attention and support of the rulers of the stars, and with that, you will be able to break through your limitations.]
“… … .”
[Oh, and the city of Munich in the country of Germany in star #2403 will be used as a base by our administrators. So, those of you in this city, please go somewhere else within a day.]
Goeuroon said, spreading out both his hands.
[I’ve said everything I wanted to say. I wish you good luck.]
So the four unique Awakened ones returned to their original places.
Goeuroon, left alone in the ‘Palace of Light’, swept his face with his long hand.
“… … The Six Paths Immortal… … He’s here? What is he up to now?”
* * *
The meeting with Phase 2’s administrator, Goeuroon, took place with the consent of four unique Awakened people, and the conversation spread throughout the world.
And that was it.
The managers weren’t doing anything in particular right now.
If you’re an administrator, you have to manage, but after that conversation, the administrator disappeared.
Nothing is known about what he does in Munich, Germany.
Actually, people weren’t particularly interested.
That was understandable.
Because something bigger happened than that.
As I said in my conversation with the administrator, the elves, no, the elite zombies, have currently requested a ceasefire.
