After being defeated by the cuteness of Naru (Cale) and being dissed by the followers.

“I-I-I lost to an unknown child...” Min Jiwon who in despair and look soulless after her fame being eclipsed by a mysterious boy (Naru or more precisely Cale).

“Cheer up, they just win because they have a larger group.”

“Right, they are all a pervert with the possibility of being a pedophile.”
The people who follows her is trying to cheer her.

Wow, they’re really brave to poke at the dragon mouth directly. Kim Dokja looked at Min Jiwon’s followers and prayed for their souls.

“How dare you said such slanderous thing to us!!!” One of the followers are extremely angry.

“How dare you say that before knowing the greatness of Our Godly Idols!!!” Another person said with a scary face.

“What an unrefined person, have you never heard about ‘Cute is Justice’?” The others are nodding their heads as they agree with that statement.

Not only the people, but the constellations also angry at them.

[Some constellations nodded at the fans circle statements.]

[Some constellations want to sue the people who slandered them.]

[Some constellations want to punishes the people who slandered them.]

[Some constellations want to slap the people who slandered them.]

[Some constellations curses the people who slandered them.]

[Some constellations angry at the people who slandered them.]

[Some constellations laugh at the foolish acts.]

[Some constellations watching with excitement.]

[Some constellations cheering the angry mob.]

[Some constellations eating popcorn.]

[Some constellations...]
...

Looking at her actions, Kim Dokja remembered the information in Ways of Survival. She seemed to lose sight of reality as she became immersed in her acting.

Well, Min Jiwon was originally like this. She was an excellent actress and due to her deep sympathy with ‘Queen Jinseong’, she would live thinking that she really was the last queen of Silla. This was why method acting was scary. But her's still paled in front of their acting. Kim Dokja looked at Cale group.

Just remembered how they act like a priests group before and how their followers turned into such fanatics. But...that vicious cultists group are really scary! Kim Dokja looked at Cale group and look at his followers who dissing Min Jiwon’s followers. But he got more terrified after he saw Clopeh excited expression.

“Representative-nim, I haven’t offended them before right?” Lee Sungkook said with a pale face.

Lee Gilyoung also suddenly grabbed Kim Dokja clothes while terrified by the vicious cultists group actions.

Well...I also trying to remember if I have ever offended them before...,although I never did anything that would offended them but...why do I have a feeling that they keep looking at me with killing intents? Kim Dokja wonder.

“It seems you are mistaken about something. This isn’t the age of the Later Three Kingdoms.” Kim Dokja try to ignore the possibility of offending them and started speaking to Min Jiwon to forget his fears.

“You are the one who is mistaken about the era. The Republic of South Korea is over. Are you still waiting for rescue?” Min Jiwon suddenly started speaking bullshit. “A new era has opened. The beginning of this era will start with me, Min Jiwon.”

“She really needs a psychiatrist.”

“They dare to slandered us when she is also have a severe chuunibyou or some identity crisis. Hah, she thinks that she’s a queen.”

“Well if she’s having a delusions of being a Queen, how about we teach her how to be humble.”

"She doesn't deserve it! It’s more fitting for Our Mary-nim."

"I think Empress will be more fitting for Mary-nim."

"What are you talking about!? Our Mary-nim is a Real Goddess!"

“I have heard that if someone was poor, they might be stupid because they don’t have enough education. And here I’m realizing that it’s true. Just thinking about how she act high and mighty as she offered 2,000 coins before really proof it.” One of the CRSF members said while looking disgusted by Min Jiwon.

“That’s right, she should learn from Our Godly Idols that act as humble as possible even if their identity are something that greater than God.”

“Right! That’s how a higher status should behave. Haaa..., just thinking about how humble they are, it makes me feel like every single God that I know in this world are trash. They’re really greater than any God that exists in this universe.”

Another dissing from the followers are being directed to Min Jiwon but for some reason the conversations turned out to dissing the God.

“Q-Queen-nim?” Yoo Sangah try to stop the chaos that causes by the two groups.

“What?” Min Jiwon reply with an annoyed tone.

“As far as I know… Silla is the weakest country in the Later Three Kingdoms… won’t it be hard based on the history? The one who unified the Three Kingdoms…” Yoo Sangah try to reason with her.

Min Jiwon paled from the surprise attack.
“W-What do you know?”

“I… have a 1st grade degree in Korean history.” Yoo Sangah explains.

“1-1st grade Korean history…” The embarrassed Min Jiwon stuttered. “What is so great about 1st grade Korean history?”

“Let’s go Yoo Sangah-ssi. She doesn’t know history very well.” Kim Dokja try to take Yoo Sangah and leave Min Jiwon.

Min Jiwon’s words became redder at my words.

“Just wait! My proposal isn’t over yet. You are on the different group with them, right. How about 3,000 coins?” Min Jiwon panic.
Kim Dokja turned around without saying anything.

What kind of offer is that? I rather asked the scary cultists group here and asked them for more coins. Didn’t you just saw how much coins he earned just for asking money and thanking them? Kim Dokja feels that their followers words about Min Jiwon was foolish seems to be true.


Kim Dokja ignored her and kept walking.

“3,600, no 3,700…!”

His footsteps stopped. Kim Dokja looked back and saw Min Jiwon making a ‘that’s right’ expression.

I was also a bad guy. I could just walk away but I wanted to smash it.

Kim Dokja opened his mouth and spoke in a blunt voice. “Rather, I want to make you an offer.”

“What do you mean?” Min Jiwon look clueless.

“10,000, how about it?” Kim Dokja said.

“Oh, is it too low? You are a king… then I will make it 20,000.” Kim Dokja correct his words.

Min Jiwon’s expression hardened. She glared at Kim Dokja.

“Are you joking with me right now? 20,000 coins? I don’t think you are worth that much…”

“No, I mean that I will buy you for 20,000 coins.” Kim Dokja explained.

“Huh?”

“To be exact, you and all your troops.” Kim Dokja correct his meaning.

Her mouth dropped open in a daze before she barely regained her senses.

“T-This is ridiculous!”

“Do you believe me now?”

It didn’t take long for distrust to turn to astonishment, astonishment to turn into greed.

It was natural. 20,000 coins was a truly huge amount. It was an amount that could affect the dominance of the three forces in the Later Three Kingdoms.

Unfortunately, greed couldn’t break her pride or maybe because she just saw how much coins earned by Naru (Cale) before.

“Are you trying to buy me with money?”

“Why? Is it impossible? You are the one who made the proposal first.” Kim Dokja replied.

The leader of her subordinates came forward.
“You dare!”

He had a slender body and was very handsome. He didn’t seem to have much muscles but they were hidden.

But even so, why do I feel like his looks is so normal. Kim Dokja wonder.

Kim Dokja didn’t realize that after looking at Cale and his group beautiful appearance for few days, his beauty standards starting to change and he keep comparing others with them except for Yoo Jonghyuk.

Yoo Sangah said, “Dokja-ssi, this man…”

Kim Dokja realized it the moment Yoo Sangah spoke. Yes, Silla had this constellation.

Silla wasn’t at an absolutely disadvantage in the war between the three kingdoms. Looking at the era, there were quite a few competent people. For example, Kim Yushin or… the problem was that there was no Kim Yushin in the current Silla period.

“Gwanchang is a good constellation. But he is rash. What if my constellation was Gyebaek?  I don’t think you want to reproduced the battle of Huangshanbeol.” Kim Dokja said.

The confused man’s eyes widened.

“You… are you from Baekje?”

[The constellation ‘Hwarang Knows No Retreat’ is angry at your comments.]

This person truly was his sponsor.

Hwarang Knows No Retreat, Gwanchang. His stigma wasn’t that great but his loyalty to the fallen kingdom was wonderful.

“I’m not from Baekje. I’m an ordinary South Korean person.” Kim Dokja explained.

“This guy!”

“I respect your patriotism but you should be more prudent. I don’t have only 20,000 coins.”

Kim Dokja moved my fingers one more time and the number of coins started to rise. The man’s face started turning pale.

Wealth was an object of desire for the poor.

However, overwhelming wealth caused reverence and fear. Especially for those who were familiar with the power of ‘coins.’

Min Jiwon, who had been frozen for a while, belatedly opened her mouth. “You… who are you?”

She asked me too soon. I naturally had no intention of answering. Kim Dokja silently look at Min Jiwon.

“Min Jiwon-ssi, you can’t solve everything in the world with money. I thought you would know this since you are an actor. I’m disappointed.”

“So we need to do this to show the coins.” One of the CRSF members said moved her finger mimicking Kim Dokja.

The number of coins of that CRSF member started to raise. It keeps raising even after reaching 500,000 coins.

Looking at the amount of coins that she has, Kim Dokja feels heartaches. Why do I feel like crying when I saw it?


I finally turned around and started leaving. The party members followed me as I heard Min Jiwon’s voice.

“W-Wait!” Min Jiwon screamed.

However, she couldn’t follow the group anymore.

Do you think that we could pay 50,000 to 100,000 coins to make the king cooperating with us, Hyung?” Naru (Cale) asked.

If they were possessing similar amount of coins, it might be possible. This makes me relieved that I didn’t want to be a king in this world. It really not worth. How can a King being buy by such cheap prices. Even most of the survivors in Gyeongbokgung Station were able to buy them if it is only worth that much.” Alberu answered.

We really need to get some information about the worth of current currency of this world. Hyung, do you think that the coins that we possess are average or not in this world?” Naru (Cale) wonder.

Once they got a certain distance away from the Silla group, Yoo Sangah spoke in a slightly grouchy voice.

“Dokja-ssi, can I ask you something?”

“Yes.”

“Is she a famous person?”

Kim Dokja hesitated for a moment at the unexpected question.

“Huh? Um…maybe?” Kim Dokja hesitate to answer.

“I see. Dokja-ssi and Sungkook-ssi recognizes her… I used to watch a lot of historical dramas, why don’t I remember her at all?”

This was why she was grumpy? Kim Dokja realizes the reason of Yoo Sangah change.
Lee Gilyoung interrupted. “Noona, I also don’t know her.”

“That’s right Yoo Sangah-ssi, I also never heard about her.” One of the CRSF members try to relieved Yoo Sangah.

“Well I also never know about her because I just following Cale-nim and his family news.” Another member said with a red face.

“Do you think that they are someone who worked in the entertainment industry like Cale-nim?” Another member asked.

“Who cares about them! All we need is Our Godly Idols!” Another member said.

[Some constellations nodded at your words.]

[Some constellations praises your attitude.]

[Some constellations absolutely agree with your words.]

[Some constellations want to ask about the recording before.]

[The constellations in the fans circle is applauding your words.]

[Some constellations...]
...

“Ah, haha. I’m glad.” Yoo Sangah feel awkward after the constellations also joined their conversation.

It wasn’t a strange story. It was natural for Yoo Sangah, Lee Gilyoung and this cultists not to know ‘Min Jiwon’  if she only appeared in a novel. Kim Dokja thought while remembering the settings in Ways of Survival.

The problem was Lee Sungkook. Kim Dokja looked at Lee Sungkook.
“Lee Sungkook-ssi.”

“Ah, yes.” Lee Sungkook responded in surprised.

Lee Sungkook responded from the rear of the group.

Min Jiwon’s beauty seemed quite impressive. Kim Dokja thought.

But it still paled in front of them. Kim Dokja remembered the absurd thing that just happened in front of him.

“I heard that you are a fan of Min Jiwon…?” Kim Dokja asked Lee Sungkook.

“Huh? Haha. That’s correct. Don’t you know? She is a famous actress…eh?”

Lee Sungkook’s expression became strange.
“Uh… Min Jiwon…ssi? Eh? Why do I know Min Jiwon? No, did I know her from the beginning…?”

Kim Dokja quietly activated Character List.

It was the second time I saw Lee Sungkook’s information. Nothing had greatly changed, except for one thing. Lee Sungkook’s ‘9th to Get Off’ attribute had disappeared. Kim Dokja analyzed the changed in Lee Sungkook’s status .

“Lee Sungkook-ssi?”

“Uhh… yes?”

“No, it is nothing.”

Kim Dokja stopped speaking in order to prevent confusion. In the world of Ways of Survival, an attribute only disappeared when the qualifications for that attribute weren’t met anymore.

All those who ‘got off’ knew the ‘future’ of this world. However, the future that Lee Sungkook knew was only near the prologue. The evolution of the current scenario surpassed the information he knew. Kim Dokja try to make a reasoning for  the changed in Lee Sungkook’s status.

Then a hypothesis emerged. Maybe all those who ‘got off’ would become simple characters the moment they caught up with the ‘future’ they knew?

He tried to look at the prophets who follows Cale and his group, but he couldn’t see their status. The same goes for the CRSF members, Yoo Sangah and Lee Gilyoung.
Kim Dokja also try to checked Cale group status, he realized that Naru (Cale) face suddenly turned dark.

W-Wha..! He got another new attribute!? This is crazy, what kind of attributes is ‘More Angelic than Angel'? It even rated as Quasi-Myth! Why do an attribute like ‘Cute is Justice ’ was rate as Legendary grade?...His ‘Crowd Control’, ‘Charm’ and ‘Mental Barrier’ skills ls also leveled up by one! Kim Dokja feels headaches and heartaches as he saw the changes in Cale status.

When he saw that Alberu's status changes as he got new attribute ‘Greatest Hyung-nim’ with Legendary rating and his ‘Crowd Control’, ‘Charm’ and ‘Mental Barrier’ skills is leveled up by one, he get more headaches and heartaches.

Mary also get a new attribute ‘Hailed as True Goddess of Death’ with a Myth rating and her ‘Mental Barrier’ skill is leveled up by one and her ‘Influence’ skill is leveled up by three.

Three levels by such a short time! Another shocking reality seems to hit Kim Dokja hardly.

But when he saw that Choi Han status only got one leveled up for ‘Mental Barrier’ and ‘Reasoning’ skills, he felt a bit relieved.

Kim Dokja then try to look at Clopeh and his expression turned paled
Like looking at the worst nightmare, he felt chills at his body as his body seems to lose all of the heats.

Do the writer real intended to create a world destruction when creating them, especially Clopeh Sekka as character!?

Kim Dokja looked at Clopeh status who had the greatest changes from the five of them with flabbergasted expression.

When Kim Dokja having a continuous heartaches, like a famous Hamlet’s line ‘When sorrows come they come not only a single spies, but in battalions.’ A sudden notification appeared.

[The character ‘Min Jiwon’ shows a weak liking towards you.]

All Kim Dokja thoughts collapsed at this absurd message. He reflexively looked back. Min Jiwon was still standing still and looking this way. He couldn’t see her face but her gestures looked angry.

Then this message… no, wait a minute. Why did I forget that episode?

It suddenly came to Kim Dokja mind. On the 11th regression, she had slapped Yoo Jonghyuk as soon as he met her. Then Min Jiwon supported him throughout that regression…

Kim Dokja suddenly had an ominous feeling. Perhaps… it couldn’t be?

At least I wasn’t hit on the cheek. Kim Dokja try to think positively.
