...
Countless messages popped up.
At the same time, the viewers' wave of support started.
They had been left staring at a pitch-black screen for an entire year, unable to see even Yurim's dream. Although many viewers left, they flocked back like migratory birds when Seol returned, acting as if they had never been gone.
['WhatShouldIDo' has donated 3000 Madness!]
[I peed my pants.]
- He didn't show us anything for over a year, and out of the blue, he shows us the crossroad event scene?
- He was considerate in unbelievable places and then threw the shade in unbelievable places, hahaha.
['TheViewersTurned' has donated 2000 Madness!]
[The viewers have already turned away! It's too late to fix it now!]
- They have turned 360 degrees...
- They've been spinning in place...
- They got too addicted to turn away...
['IsThis JamadForReal' has donated 3000 Madness!]
[How can a knockoff be of so high quality?! How come he looks so cool?! Revive him!]
- If the ingredients are good, even if you cook ramyeon for them, it will taste great.
- I understood it at once. Are you a sage or something?
- I'm eating ramyeon right now.
The bloodstained Pointy Mountains had disappeared. The screams and scolding that once echoed now lingered faintly, replaced by silence.
The chair where the labyrinth's master had sat remained alone in the center.
A chair with half its backrest had been sliced off diagonally—a once glorious but now broken symbol.
Step...
Step...
Covered in blood, Seol approached the chair.
His entire body was drenched in blood, a mix of his own and his enemies.
The blood painted on him was proof of how reckless and extreme his journey had been.
Swoosh...
Seol naturally sat down on the chair.
"Oof... Oof..."
He was tired.
Shin Yu was trembling, and Seol's entire body trembled as well. But before he could even feel exhilaration, an overwhelming fatigue washed over him first.
In his sight, a group came into view.
Lucia and the sisters were looking in disbelief at Seol and the fallen labyrinth master.
No one spoke a word.
Who could break such silence?
The fight had been brutal, one that was far beyond their comprehension.
The three had briefly witnessed the world of transcendents.
Swoosh...
Yaksha's mask slowly disintegrated into dust; it had exerted all of its power.
It seemed Seol wouldn't be able to become Yaksha again until he recovered.
"Oof..."
He thought that even if he were to meet his death while sitting on this chair, it wouldn't be a bad ending.
Whir...
Light seeped in from the door. Seol knew what these small lights were—they were the light of the Shin brothers.
That was what he expected, but they had already met their true deaths
Seol raised his hand and accepted their unfulfilled desires.
[
[
...
The process of inheriting the unfulfilled desires of the dead showed their moment of death or their regrets.
What Seol saw was them clinging to the final gate before exploding in a blaze of glory.
Only then did he learn that such a thing had happened so that Shin Yu could reach the final gate.
And how they sacrificed themselves.
He didn't feel any regret from them—they had already accepted their deaths. Instead, they chose to make their final moments as meaningful as they could.
The inheritance process depicted their moment of death not when they lost their bodies but when they lost their souls.
It was as if the death of one's soul was the true death.
And with this, they finally found peace.
'Peace, huh...'

"Master, so you've returned. We've been waiting.'
And there was even Karuna, whose presence rivaled Karen's.
Nothing had remained still.
"Hahaha... It's certainly been a while since I've seen you this close."
A spirit was approaching him while pushing up his glasses.
The first Magician, Ur.
And...
BOOM...
BOOM...
"He's making quite an entrance..."
And the one Karen was teasing.
Someone with an overwhelming size and massive fangs.
"You idiot..."
It was the real Jamad.
It seemed that his anger still hadn't subsided yet.
"It took you long enough..."
They greeted him with a smirk.
"You know? That guy was really sulking. Despite being all muscles, he's actually really sensitive..."
"Enough! Ruining an elf's face isn't among my hobbies."
"Ugh... You have no idea how much he's been grumbling in the Void. He said that if it were him, such a fake wouldn't last a fist..."
BOOM—!
Crack...
Jamad slammed the ground, causing cracks to spread in all directions.
"How noisy."
No one was intimidated by Jamad's attitude.
Especially Ur.
"You idiot! What are you doing to the Void?"
Paf, paf!
Ur's tiny fists pounded Jamad's shoulders.
"All you do is to destroy! You never think about those who build! Reflect on yourself!"
Swoosh...
Karuna approached and looked at Seol's right arm.
It was Shin Yu.
"So this arm is that splendid swordsman."
Seemingly embarrassed, Shin Yu folded his arm.
"Nice to meet you."
Karuna offered a handshake.
Shin Yu hesitated but eventually shook his hand.
Karen grinned.
"Anyway... Welcome to the Void."
Ur, who had been lecturing Jamad about being conscious, suddenly approached Seol.
"How is it?"
"What...?
Was he asking about the Void?
If so...
"The chair."
"Chair...?"
"This chair was specifically crafted with great effort, anticipating this might happen someday. The decorations on the backrest symbolize my homeland... No, that trashy war nation, Cagon..."
Karen made an annoyed expression.
"There he goes again! He sometimes explodes at the weirdest moments."
Ur also showed this trait when he met Azran.
Ur never hid what he loved, expressing it without restraint. Once, magic held that place. And after reaching the peak, he must have turned his attention to other things.
"Ahem... So, how is it? What do you think?"
"Ur, if it's so precious, why don't you sit on it yourself?"
Ur answered with a serious expression.
"Why would I? I'm not the Void's master. I'm just your advisor."
Although their first meeting had been eccentric, compared to when he was trapped in Alcatron, his personality had softened.
But there was no telling when his old self might resurface.
"By the way, how's the research...?"
Since obtaining the Void, Ur had locked himself there, researching something.
He had also taken a lot of valuable items from Seol because of it.
"Fu... Fufufu..."
Ur laughed like a villain.
"My research? You can look forward to it. It's in its final stages. Once stability is secured, it can be revealed to the world at any time. Once that day comes..."
He wickedly grinned.
"Along with cheers, the world will be turned upside down..."
They were talking when.
[Another reward has been granted.]
[In the right place, the right people and the right even have all come together.]
[A new faction is born.]
